Chapter 264 Brothers in Distress



Afterwards, Xueying stood up and said goodbye, leaving the cabin. Liu Neng and Liu Hu saw them out of Fengying Village and then returned to the cabin.

"Uncle, it seems that there are some serious changes in the court this time." Liu Hu said worriedly.

Liu Neng nodded. "Yes, but as long as we do our job well, we can have a clear conscience. Besides, no matter what, we are always fighting for the country and the people."

Liu Hu agreed. "That's right, uncle. No matter how the situation changes in the future, we just need to stick to our beliefs and move forward courageously."

Liu Neng smiled and said, "Well, let's look forward to that day together."

As the night deepened, the sound of horse hooves and soldiers training could be heard from the camp. Liu Neng and Liu Hu stared silently into the distance, their hearts filled with hope for the future.

It was a dark and windy night, and Xueying and the other two took advantage of the cover of night to leave Fengying Village.

Liu Hu asked Liu Neng with some doubt: "Uncle! Xueying is a killer in the martial arts world. Although he has the Phoenix Blood Jade, it is inevitable that he did not come from a legitimate source. Why do you trust him so much?"

Liu Neng's eyes were full of shrewdness. "Xi Ruming is the senior brother of the old Princess Wu'an. Who else could make him bow down to him except the current Prince Wu'an, Xiao Jinghan? Therefore, Blood Shadow must be the Prince Wu'an!"

"Aren't you worried that they will do something bad to us?" Liu Hu asked with some concern.

"No, although King Wu'an has not revealed his identity, he has no ill intentions. Moreover, if he really wanted to do something bad to us, he would not have waited until now." Liu Neng comforted Liu Hu.

"What's more, among the princes of the current emperor, the King of Qin is indeed the best candidate! Okay! We just need to obey the orders of our master!" Liu Neng patted Liu Hu on the shoulder and left!

Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy sat side by side in the spacious and comfortable carriage. When their eyes met, they were filled with deep affection.

Xi Ruming, watching this scene from the side, felt a little uncomfortable. He cleared his throat and broke the silence: "Master, I think it's better for me to go out and ride my horse..."

A blush appeared on Xueying's face. He coughed, trying to hide his embarrassment, and then said seriously: "Father, you still have to take care of your health. It's windy outside, and Shanglu is here, so don't worry!"

Xi Ruming smiled helplessly. He knew what Blood Shadow meant, but he couldn't insist any further. So, he stayed in the carriage, traveling with Blood Shadow and Dark Moon Fairy.

In order to ease the awkward atmosphere in the car, Xi Ruming asked, "Young Master, have you noticed that Liu Neng seems to have recognized you?"

Xueying frowned and asked in confusion, "Why do you think so, Yafu?"

Xi Ruming scratched her cheek and replied a little embarrassedly: "I just remembered this. Many years ago, when I went to visit your mother, Liu Neng was with your grandmother. So, he might have recognized me."

The corner of Xueying's mouth lifted slightly, revealing a smile: "It's okay! The Black Armor Army will not betray the one who holds the Phoenix Blood Jade! Besides, he is my grandmother's man!"

At this time, Shang Lu whispered outside the carriage: "Young Master! Du Zhong and Du Heng are here!"

When Xueying heard the voice, his eyes flickered slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. He replied calmly, "Yeah!"

After getting off their horses, Du Zhong and Du Heng quickly walked to the front of the carriage and saluted respectfully, saying, "Master!"

Du Zhong continued, "Xiao Jingyi's men came to our sect and offered 10,000 taels of gold to buy Xiao Jinghan's head!"

When Shang Lu, who was sitting outside the carriage, heard the news, his face instantly became solemn and he looked at Du Zhong with a meaningful look.

Du Heng's heart tightened. He didn't understand why Shang Lu looked at his brother like that?

Dark Moon Fairy raised her eyebrows and asked Blood Shadow in a low voice, "They don't even know your true identity?" She seemed very surprised by this.

A sneer appeared on Xueying's lips as he replied softly, "That's right, they don't know my true identity." His tone revealed a sense of mystery and confidence.

Dark Moon Fairy asked again curiously: "Do Shang Lu and Shang Zhi know about it?" Her eyes were full of doubts.

Xueying nodded slightly to express his affirmation: "They both know." A barely perceptible emotional fluctuation flashed in his eyes.

Dark Moon Enchantress couldn't help but ask curiously: "They are all from your sect, why are they treated so differently? Is it just because the Du Zhong brothers are idiots?" Her tone was full of ridicule and mockery.

Blood Shadow: “……!”

Xi Ruming, who was standing by, began to explain, "Shang Lu and Shang Zhi are secret guards of the Youli Imperial Family. They were bestowed upon the Young Master by His Majesty! The others in the Soul-Destroying Sect are unaware of the Young Master's true identity."

After hearing this, Dark Moon Enchantress nodded in sudden realization!

Seeing that the people in the carriage did not respond to him, Du Zhong continued, "Master, we didn't get much money for protecting Xiao Jinghan. This time, it's 10,000 taels of gold!"

Du Heng quickly pulled Du Zhong: "Brother! Stop talking!"

Du Zhong shook his hand away: "I know that he is the son-in-law of your wife's daughter, but you should also think about the brothers in the sect!"

At this moment, a cold male voice came from the carriage: "Is your sect short of money?"

Du Zhong was stunned for a moment, then replied: "No shortage!"

The people in the car asked again: "Is Xiao Jinghan a wicked official who exploits the people of the village?"

Du Zhong immediately shook his head and denied: "No!"

The person in the car asked again, "So you want to kill Luo Lingyue's husband, but are you jealous that Du Heng married her maid?"

These words made Du Heng's face change, and he looked at Du Zhong in astonishment.

Du Zhong was also panicked and quickly explained: "That's not the case!"

Dark Moon Enchantress's voice was a little vague: "Are you anxious? Hahahaha! Blood Shadow hit the nail on the head! Your sect leader really understands you! He can guess your little thoughts so clearly!" Her laughter carried a hint of sarcasm and complacency.

Du Zhong widened his eyes and cursed angrily: "Where did this witch come from! How dare you confuse people and confuse right and wrong here! I think you are tired of living!" His face turned red and he wanted to rush up and teach the woman in the carriage a lesson.

However, before Du Zhong could make any move, Dark Moon Fairy suddenly flew out and came to him as fast as a ghost. She raised her hand and slapped Du Zhong hard on the mouth!

With a crisp sound, Du Zhong's mouth instantly swelled up, and blood even flowed from the corner of his mouth. He covered his mouth in shock, staring at the ferocious woman in front of him in disbelief. It was actually Dark Moon Enchantress!

Du Heng immediately drew his sword and blocked Du Zhong's way: "Master of the Dark Moon Pavilion! If you dare to hurt my brother again, I will not show mercy to you with my sword!"

Blood Shadow got out of the carriage and asked coldly, "Who do you want to be rude to?"

Du Heng felt a gust of wind, and he fell directly to the foot of the tree next to him, spitting out a mouthful of blood...
