Seeking the Flying Sword Path Chapter 40: Yijian (Happy Chinese New Year)
bsp;”Brother,” Meng Yuxiang continued, “I’m a little afraid. There was trouble the last time the Chu State succeeded to the throne, and the Duke of Qi’s palace was burned to ashes.”
Having seen a lot of big families, you also know that the powerful and wealthy will be destroyed at will.
“What are you afraid of? No one dares to touch you.” Qin Yun said, then took out an amulet from his arms and handed it to his sister, “You carry this amulet with you. If you encounter danger, just tear it into pieces. Yes, I know.”
Meng Yuxiang immediately became happy upon hearing this, connected the amulet and kept it close to her body.
“Just relax and feel at ease. After a few days, the new King of Chu will be appointed, and everything will be peaceful.” Qin Yun comforted him.
“Yes.” Meng Yuxiang nodded. She felt much more at ease after receiving the amulet and her brother’s assurance.
The snow is still falling.
The little girl ‘Tong’er’ who is four or five years old and the one-year-old child ‘Meng Huan’ who has just walked are playing in the snow, while the maids and Gong Yan’er are taking care of them.
Qin Yun looked at all this with a smile.
……
The atmosphere in the entire Imperial City is obviously becoming more and more depressing. There are more and more government officials patrolling the city, and the business in brothels, restaurants and other places has also dropped a lot at night.
The dignitaries in the Imperial City are also becoming more cautious, walking on thin ice.
Another five days passed in the blink of an eye.
On the twenty-sixth day of the twelfth lunar month, night.
Not far from Qin Yun’s residence, there is a new station in Baihua Valley.
“King Chu has passed away. Please spread the news to everyone as soon as possible.” Elder Qu Ying ordered.
“Yes.” The three female disciples were surprised, but they responded respectfully.
Elder Qu Ying stood up and walked out, heading straight to Qin Yun’s house not far away.
“Elder Qu.” The disciple of Zhoushan Sword Sect who was responsible for guarding outside the gate intercepted him. He knew that the other party was an expert in the Xiantian realm and was very polite.
“I want to see Mr. Meng. There is something important.” Elder Qu Ying said.
“Okay.” The two guarding disciples were a little confused, but they reported quickly.
Soon.
Qin Yun got up and met Elder Qu Ying in the side hall.
“Elder Qu came here in the middle of the night. What’s the matter?” Qin Yun looked at her.
“Mr. Meng,” Elder Qu Ying said, “We in Baihua Valley have just received the latest news. King Chu has passed away.”
“Oh?” Qin Yun nodded slightly, “The information in Baihua Valley is really well-informed, and I, the Zhoushan Sword Sect, don’t know anything about it.”
Elder Qu Ying smiled and said: “I, Baihuagu, are a little better at intelligence. The death of King Chu is very important, so I will be the first to inform Mr. Meng! I have something else to do, so I won’t disturb Mr. Meng. ”
“Well, let’s go.” Qin Yun smiled and nodded, believing that Baihua Valley’s troops in the Imperial City would have no sleep tonight.
Elder Qu Ying left quickly.
Qin Yun was drinking tea in the side hall while directly releasing the realm of Tao! With yourself as the center, everything within twenty miles is under induction. An Guogong Duan’s family is only about fifteen miles away from here, so naturally it is within range!
“Elder.” Dong Wan and Liu Qingsha both came to pay their respects. They also learned that Elder Qu Ying was visiting in the middle of the night.
“Baihua Valley came to tell me that King Chu has passed away.” Qin Yun said.
“What.” Dong Wan and Liu Qingsha were surprised.
“Okay, just stay here safely and don’t pay attention to the outside world.” Qin Yun ordered, “Go, let all the disciples wake up quickly and guard everywhere. There may be some chaos in the Imperial City tonight.”
“Yes.” Dong Wan and Liu Qingsha respectfully obeyed the order and then exited.
Qin Yun used the realm of Tao to explore.
The spirit is released for exploration, and powerful masters can feel it. The ‘Domain of Tao’ is relatively difficult to detect, unless the opponent’s ‘Tao’ is no less than that of Qin Yun. Obviously, the entire Imperial City… even the second-ranked ‘Li Ruji’ on the list of gods in the palace, although physically very strong, is not as good as Qin Yun in terms of ‘Tao’ alone.
What’s more, the palace is more than twenty miles away from Qin Yun.
“Interesting, two top masters from the Heavenly Ranking are together?” Qin Yun discovered a scene. Those within twenty miles around that could attract Qin Yun’s attention were at least at the Xiantian realm.
The area around An Guo Gong’s Mansion is a place where dignitaries gather.
The eighth prince’s master, Mr. Zhou, also lives here.
This old Mr. Zhou, named ‘Zhou Fu’, is a casual cultivator. He met the Eighth Prince by chance and became his disciple. Later, Mr. Zhou revealed his strength… and then the world knew that this man was a high-ranking person on the Heavenly Ranking. Ranked seventeenth on the heavenly list!
……
Mr. Zhou’s residence is in the study.
“Mr. Zhou, do you want to take the opportunity to deal with that Meng Yiqiu tonight? If you want to destroy the Zhoushan Sword Sect, you must first destroy this Meng Yiqiu.” The two men stood respectfully beside Mr. Zhou, “Before, the two ice demons , and Sect Master Xiao all died in his hands. It would be very difficult to kill him. This time, they could use his strength to make them fight against each other within the Chu Kingdom. .”
“Meng Yiqiu is on the Heavenly Ranking. Even if I personally take action, I am not completely sure.” Mr. Zhou, whose beard and hair were all white, shook his head gently, “Don’t make extra trouble. The eighth prince must be on the throne tonight. As for Meng Yiqiu ? Let’s wait until the future and settle it all in one fell swoop.”
“Yes.” Both of them said respectfully.
“Go ahead.” Mr. Zhou waved his hand, “Everything goes as planned.”
The two men immediately retreated and left quietly along the secret passage.
Mr. Zhou walked out of the study and left the house quietly. Now the streets were silent. It was late at night after all, and there was no one around. Only the lanterns in some dignitaries’ mansions in the distance barely shone a little light.
“Huh?” Mr. Zhou suddenly stopped.
In the middle of the street ahead, stood a burly old man holding a spear. The burly old man stood there like a volcano about to erupt, bringing a terrifying deterrent.
“General Xue.” Mr. Zhou was startled and slightly raised his hands, “Why did you come to me in the middle of the night?”
Xue Chong is currently ninth on the Heavenly Ranking!
He is also the only Tianbang master who is absolutely loyal to the Chu royal family! As for ‘Meng Yiqiu’ and ‘Croe Song’, it was not easy for the Chu royal family to drive them.
“Hmph.”
Mr. Zhou’s expression changed, and then he laughed, his voice harsh: “I have been trying to avoid you, and I only met you once in the Imperial City, but I didn’t expect you to recognize me. One hundred It has been more than thirty years. After such a long time, my strength has also changed greatly. My breath is different from before, and my appearance has changed. Xue Chong, you still recognize me.”
“Tai Shuchen! You are a native of Wei, but you have deceived the world and become the master of His Highness the Eighth Prince.” Xue Chong sneered, “But you can deceive others, but you cannot deceive me.”
“Stop talking nonsense.” Mr. Zhou instantly looked like a ghost, like an eagle leaping out.
“Kill!”
Xue Chong’s spear set off a huge wave of blood, as if he were on a battlefield, he bravely faced it.
……
This fight was extremely fierce and terrifying, and the aftermath caused the walls of some surrounding mansions to collapse. But all the powerful families around him were hiding, and they didn’t dare to look outside at all.
The two sides only exchanged more than ten moves before Mr. Zhou quickly escaped.
Huh, uh.
In terms of flight speed, Mr. Zhou obviously had the upper hand. He flew quickly in the dark imperial capital and quickly got rid of Xue Chong.
“Ahem.” General Xue Chong stood on the spot holding a long gun, coughing twice while holding his chest, spitting out blood, his eyes filled with coldness, “I am only 50% to 60% sure of his true identity. , a head-on confrontation is certain. This great master of Wei State has concealed his identity, and even changed his identity to sneak into our Chu State. Hum, now that his identity is exposed, he can no longer stay with the Eighth Prince.”
“But this old guy is really strong. I was weaker than him back then, and I am still weaker now.” Xue Chong shook his head, “With his true strength, I am afraid he can be among the top five on the Heavenly Ranking.”
……
Mr. Zhou quickly fled for more than ten miles.
“Hmph, if you give me enough time, I will definitely take Xue Chong’s life.” Mr. Zhou secretly thought, “But if I delay for some more time, I’m afraid Li Ruji may kill him.”
The God of War Li Ruji, second on the list of gods, has entered Taoism!
Mr. Zhou only had 10% or 20% hope of escaping when faced with Li Ruji.
“Huh?”
Mr. Zhou’s expression suddenly changed.
Beside the river ahead, there was a young man sitting on a big rock, drinking wine with a wine gourd.
“Uncle, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time.” Qin Yun put down the wine gourd and looked over with a smile.
Mr. Zhou’s expression turned ugly: “Meng Yiqiu!”
There are few people in this imperial capital that he fears. The former General Xue Chong appeared in front of his eyes again with the Frost Sword Meng Yiqiu.
“Just you?” Mr. Zhou carefully guarded his surroundings. Could it be that Li Ruji has arrived?
“Don’t worry, there is no one else.” Qin Yun said.
Mr. Zhou was slightly stunned.
No one else?
Meng Yiqiu, are you going to deal with him alone?
“Tai Shuchen, you should be the leader of the Wei people in the Imperial City. Did you order the two demons of ice and fire and the immortal doctor Xiao Chun to deal with me?” Qin Yun asked, “You arranged to kill my master. ?”
“The assassination was indeed carried out with my consent. Why, you want revenge?” Mr. Zhou sneered, “Meng Yiqiu, you are too young. How much fear will I still have of you if it takes a few decades? As for now ? Hum hum…”
Qin Yun stood up.
Qiang, pull out the frost sword directly.
“Yes, it’s revenge.” Qin Yun nodded.
“Hahaha, I won’t play with you anymore.” Mr. Zhou suddenly fled like an eagle with spread wings.
Whoosh.
Qin Yun also moved, much faster than Mr. Zhou.
“What!” Mr. Zhou was shocked.
The sword flashed!
Qin Yun stopped and put the frost sword into its sheath. Mr. Zhou, who was escaping, fell directly from the air, fell to the ground with a thud, and made no sound again.
