    Chapter 61: Top of the Forbidden City, transitional chapter, will be completed tomorrow

    The moon is high in the sky, and in the eyes of the vast majority of people in the world who don’t know the inside story, there will be a wonderful kendo battle at the top of the Forbidden City.However, as one of the parties in this decisive battle that cannot be missed, Ye Gucheng is now in the South Study Room.Beside him were Crown Prince Nan on one side and eunuch Wang An on the other; and in front of him were the emperor, four people with four broken swords, and an old eunuch.

    The sword array of the four brothers of the Yu family in Feiyubao is well-known in the world. Unfortunately, they couldn’t even catch Ye Gucheng’s sword, and almost killed someone with the sword.Fortunately, he was saved by the long stick in time when the sword was broken. Fortunately, he survived and had to retreat to the dark place where he was originally hiding.

    Seeing that the Yu family brothers who were protecting him almost died on the spot, the emperor, who had been through a life-and-death situation once, had no worries or panic about his own safety in his eyes.Ye Gucheng, who had broken the formation with his sword, was not at all proud at this moment. He was still extremely calm and calmly looked at the old eunuch who was coughing lightly in front of the emperor.

    The old eunuch looked indeed quite old – at least older than Wang An. His face was like a blue crab, his eyebrows were as white as snow, and there seemed to be a faint old smell about him that was hard to get rid of.But he was holding a stick in his hand. When he held the long stick, his back seemed to be less hunched, and there was still a mysterious blue lurking in his eyes, like a dozing beast.

    Seeing the old eunuch standing in front of the emperor, Wang An was immediately shocked and angry, and shouted sharply: “Mi Youqiao – what do you mean? Now that things have happened, are you still betraying the prince?”

    Mi Youqiao narrowed his eyes and smiled: “I have always been loyal to only one person – His Majesty. Since I have never taken refuge with any prince, how can I betray you?”

    Wang An, who had worked hard to bridge the gap between Nan Wang and Mi Youqiao, was now breaking out in a cold sweat. He couldn’t help but gritted his teeth and asked: “Have you forgotten why your whole family died, and why you ended up in the palace?”

    Mi Youqiao lowered the corners of his mouth, and his face became more serious and serious: “Why mention the old things again… But it is precisely because of these past events that you can believe that I will conspire with you, and finally it has played some role.”

    Prince Nan is trying to stay calm.Mi Youqiao is one of their collaborators. Now that they have suddenly counterattacked, they have not only lost a combat power and a trump card, but it also means that their plan has probably been exposed!If this is the case, what was originally thought to be a foolproof plan is now very likely to become a dragnet for the other party to use his tricks to trap you!

    But at this point, although Prince Nan’s whole body was trembling slightly, he still managed to stay calm and said: “I am here. Mi Youqiao, if you abandon the darkness and turn to the light in time, I can forgive your sin. Otherwise, you will be buried with Prince Nan!” After saying that, he took a step back, and his eyes signaled Ye Gucheng to stop hesitating and take action quickly.

    Seeing that Prince Nan was quite good at showing off, the Emperor just chuckled and remained motionless, as if he had great trust in Mi Youqiao.At this time, Ye Gucheng and Mi Youqiao have locked each other, and the inexplicable momentum is building up, rising, and colliding…

    “I have heard for a long time about the reputation of the Sutra-cutting Hall. It is rumored that Eunuch Mi is the direct descendant of the ‘Huaiyin Zhanghou’. I hope you will not disappoint – please!” Ye Gucheng was not a man of words. When he said the word “please”, the long sword in his hand was already thrust out, like thunder flashing like a white rainbow penetrating the sun.

    Mi Youqiao’s expression was slightly restrained, and at the same time he also had an air of aging.His long stick no longer looked like a stiff piece of wood, but turned into a flexible snake and a powerful python. A shrill scream exploded in the room while dancing, and the fierce force representing “emptiness” suddenly crashed down, like a tiger descending from the mountain, vowing to smash people into pulp!

    No matter how long a sword is, it cannot be compared with a normal stick in length, let alone the weapon in Mi Youqiao’s hand.In the life-and-death struggle that was inch short and inch dangerous, Ye Gucheng was undoubtedly in a more dangerous situation, but he was not afraid at all.Long before Mi Youqiao saved the Yu brothers with a stick, he had been observing, staring at every expression and even the slight changes in the muscles of this father-in-law.

    His sword was a sword that was perfected before he made a move. When he decided to use the sword, he was already aware of every momentary change. If an immortal came to this world, he would be able to kill people easily without any reason.If it wasn’t Mi Youqiao in front of him, these few changes in the sword’s deflection would be enough to kill several opponents – but it was Mi Youqiao in front of him.

    It was passed down from the main hall of Zhan Jing Tang that Tian Ai’s “stick to the sky” has more than just a sinister reputation, it is even more sinister – especially when facing this move directly.Mi Youqiao’s eyes were already filled with bright blue color, and he seemed to have transformed into a tall giant, roaring towards the sky.That stick is not a stick that goes straight forward, but a stick that is ever-changing, and it is a stick that dares to shake the sky!

    Prince Nan and Wang An couldn’t quite understand which side, Ye Gucheng or Mi Youqiao, had the upper hand, but were forced to retreat again and again by the terrifying aftermath of the confrontation between the two.The emperor didn’t want to retreat at first, but as the two of them fought more and more fiercely, he finally took two steps back helplessly. His narrowed eyes flashed with wonder, solemnity and regret, and he waited for more changes.

    Mi Youqiao’s decades were not wasted. Even though others are old and disabled, warriors never accept their fate.It is said that “a gun that lasts a lifetime is a stick that lasts a month.” Weapons such as sticks or sticks have always been easy to learn but difficult to master. There are very few masters who use them as weapons. At most, only Shaolin monks and disciples of the Beggar Clan can use them.

    “A stick toward the sky” is actually “Huaiyin Zhanghou” Zhang Tianai condensed from the Thousand Moves Sword Style, which seems simple but complex.In the hands of Mi Youqiao, it was as if a storm was sweeping across, trying to pull everything in and then smash it into pieces!However, Ye Gucheng is also a touch of wind, an elegant and uncertain wind beyond the white clouds.

    Under the shadow of a stick that resembles a demon and is unparalleled in the world, Ye Gucheng is always outside, dismantling the whirlwind one by one, and turning it into his own “wind” – because he is Ye Gucheng, the Ye Gucheng who has stood at the top of the world’s swordsmanship, and the Ye Gucheng who has seen the swordsmanship that truly comes from outside the world, and the bottleneck has been loosened.

    Mi Youqiao refuses to give in, his moves have not aged well, and his momentum is still astonishing. Unfortunately, he was still caught by Ye Gucheng, and the extremely brilliant cold sword penetrated this flaw and pierced his eyebrows!

    “Tick” – the drop of blood that should have fallen fell to the ground, but there was only this one drop; the center of the eyebrow that should have been penetrated showed bright red blood, but it only scratched the skin.The long sword that was supposed to take someone’s life stopped very close at hand and could no longer penetrate deeper, just because there was one more person between Ye Gucheng and Mi Youqiao, two more fingers, and a man with four eyebrows.

    “Lu Xiaofeng.” Ye Gucheng looked at Lu Xiaofeng, who was holding his sword in front of him, and then at Zhui Ming, who was guarding the emperor’s side, and said in a deep voice, “You guys came at the right time.”

    Lu Xiaofeng sighed: “If you weren’t here, we wouldn’t have had to come.”

    Not to mention Prince Nan and Wang An, whose expressions changed again and again, Ye Gucheng suddenly raised his head and looked outside the room, silent for a long time.Lu Xiaofeng was about to say something, but suddenly she saw the moonlight suddenly darken, and the originally bright light was stained with a layer of blood, which made people feel a creepy feeling.

    .

    Not long ago, the roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.

    Tonight is the night of the full moon, and this place is the top of the Forbidden City. Ximen Chuixue, dressed in white and holding a long sword, stands opposite “Ye Gucheng”.Countless people in the arena – especially swordsmen – are looking forward to this battle, but those who can actually reach the decisive battle site – even if the number of people exceeds the original limit, is still very few compared to the entire arena.

    Pairs of eyes stared at the two swordsmen in the confrontation with different expressions, waiting for this rare and shocking battle.Unfortunately, this battle was over before it even started – because “Ye Gucheng” was seriously injured visibly, Ximen Chuixue was unwilling to take advantage of others’ danger and had to postpone it for another month.

    One of the two protagonists is gone, and the other seems to want to chase but is unable to do so, which is embarrassing.Unexpectedly, Tang Tianzong suddenly made a sneak attack and hit “Ye Gucheng” with a handful of poisonous sand. Only then did everyone realize that “Ye Gucheng” was not Ye Gucheng.Where is the real Lord of Baiyun City and why he needs a substitute to attend the appointment have become lingering questions in the hearts of people in the world who are looking at each other.

    At this moment, Lu Xiaofeng suddenly approached Tie Shou and Zhui Ming again, and asked extremely nervously: “Is Lord Zhuge in the palace now?”

    Zhui Ming hesitated for a while, then shook his head at Lu Xiaofeng’s urging and said: “Uncle Shi left Beijing two days ago to meet friends, and the relevant matters are temporarily left to me and four senior brothers.”

    Lu Xiaofeng asked again with a bit of luck: “If the ruthless and cold-blooded ones are not here, are they guarding the current emperor?”

    Zhui Ming and Tie Shou exchanged glances secretly, and the former continued to shake his head: “Elder brother and the others are responsible for other directions, and they are not banned now.”

    The situation was urgent, and Lu Xiaofeng, who was frightened by his own suspicion, did not notice the secret communication between Tie Shou and Zhui Ming, nor did he seriously consider whether Zhui Ming might have deceived him. Instead, he asked people to whisper something in a low voice, saying that he suspected that the emperor was in danger and that he should go and save him.

    Tie Shou nodded invisibly, and Zhui Ming said with a panic, “I’ll lead the way.” He and Lu Xiaofeng ran away in a hurry, leaving only Tie Shou with a straight face and a few guards with swords. Lu Xiaofeng’s last suspicion about the emperor’s safety was not heard by others, but Zhuge Zheng and I, as the chief instructor of the Forbidden Army, were not in the capital, but they heard it clearly, and their expressions were different for a moment.

    It was okay for Lu Xiaofeng and Zhui Ming not to move, but as soon as they moved, the mysterious masked people took action at the same time – they seemed to be unfamiliar with each other before, but now their movements were neatly integrated as if they were one.But the masked people failed to stop anyone, because the people they wanted to stop were Zhui Ming and Lu Xiaofeng, who were among the top ten in the world in Qinggong.

    At the same time, it was also because their actions revealed that they had bad intentions. Tie Shou had sufficient reason to surround them with the surrounding guards, while the other unmasked people in the arena did not mention their plans to come forward.

    The three of them, Yan Bugui, had been motionless near the main ridge from the very beginning, quietly watching all the changes – watching Ximen Chuixue flying off the roof, watching “Ye Gucheng” being poisoned and dying, watching Zhui Ming and Lu Xiaofeng leaving, watching the iron hand leading the guards to kill all the masked men, watching the rest of the Jianghu people retreating three feet for this… I will appear on the stage after you sing.

    At this moment, Xie Donghai suddenly looked up at the sky and whispered: “The time has come.”
