Chapter 383 The Drunkard's Intention Is Not to Drink
Huangfu Cheng stood there without moving. He was injured by the sword he had just stabbed, and now he was no match for him at all.
Forcing a move would only worsen the injury. There was no need for that, not to mention...
A gleam of light flashed in Huangfu Cheng's eyes, and his real intention was not to drink.
Looking at the sword getting closer and closer to him, Huangfu Cheng shook his head:
"Xu Wuyan, you have a backup plan, do you think I'm prepared?"
The fight now is about who can sit still longer!
The sword stopped in front of Huangfu Cheng, less than an inch away from his eyes.
Xu Wuyan said indifferently, "If my sword moves one more inch forward, you will surely die."
The three old men on the side saw this and wanted to rush over here.
"Do you think I don't exist?" Murong had a face full of hostility, and he swung the sword in his hand faster. He stopped three people by himself.
But he also paid a heavy price, with bruises all over his body.
Xu Wuyan looked aside and said, "You three better not act rashly, otherwise, if my hand shakes and I take his life, don't blame me!"
The three men's attacks paused.
Huangfu Cheng looked at them and said, "Stop fighting and come back!"
The three old men looked at each other, then withdrew their moves and returned to Huangfu Cheng.
Huangfu Cheng turned his head to look at Xu Wuyan, then stretched out his right hand, pinched his sword between his index and middle fingers and moved it aside:
"Aren't you tired of holding this sword?"
Murong on the side attacked him again with sword raised, but this time Xu Wuyan stopped him.
Turning around, “Calm down.
He is not your enemy, there is no point in killing him."
The scarlet in Murong's eyes slowly faded away, and he stared at Huangfu Cheng with gloomy eyes:
"Tell me, who is it?"
His Murong family was once the largest family in Dian City, but overnight, all the members of the family were killed, even newborn babies were not spared!
If it weren't for the thirty brave men in his family who risked their lives to save him, he would have died long ago.
But when he was safe, the only person left by his side was a disabled soldier.
Moreover, someone has been tracking his whereabouts for years, but he could not find any information about who was behind it.
"An innocent man is guilty of possessing a treasure!" Huangfu Cheng shook his head, "Since you are alive, the treasure must be with you.
That is what led to the destruction of the entire Murong family. They will not let you go until they get that thing."
Murong's face darkened, and the fierce light in his eyes appeared again.
He gripped the hilt of the sword tightly and gritted his teeth, "I just want to know who's behind this!"
"The Eighth Prince of Nanshao Kingdom!" Huangfu Cheng gave him the answer:
"He was involved, but he was not the mastermind. I don't know who the mastermind is. This is all I have found out.
If you want to know, you can only go and find out for yourself. But I can tell you with certainty that if you go to find him, you will surely die!"
The Eighth Prince of Nanshao Kingdom is now the Regent of Nanshao Kingdom. He is in a high position and has great power. Ordinary people cannot get close to him at all. Anyone who tries to get close to him will be treated as an assassin and killed directly.
I didn’t expect that!
It turned out that they were the ones who massacred his Murong clan.
Murong's eyes turned red, he was on the verge of going crazy, and killing filled his heart.
After so many years, he finally knew who his enemy was!
"Calm down!" Xu Wuyan said indifferently:
"Whether this is true or not still needs to be investigated. Don't believe his one-sided statement."
Huangfu Cheng looked innocent, "These are all true. In order to find out these, our chess pieces in Nanshao Kingdom were basically destroyed. The price we paid was terrible.
Go check it out yourself, I can guarantee you won’t find anything.”
At this point, Huangfu Cheng raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you all move all my information away, even the shelf? On that shelf is the file on the Murong family tragedy.
The file records it clearly, if you don't believe it you can read it yourself."
At this point, he couldn't help but sigh, "Originally, when I found this information, I wanted to exchange it for a large sum of money. Unfortunately, no one was interested in buying it at the time, so it ended up gathering dust!"
Xu Wuyan frowned, Huangfu Cheng was testing him.
Seeing Murong looking at him, Xu Wuyan said with a cold face, "If I had it, do you think I would not give it to you?
Don't be fooled by him. When Ping'an and the others came back, they didn't bring anything with them.
Furthermore, they set fire to their own territory. Do you think they would have transferred important information before burning their own territory?"
At this point, Xu Wuyan looked at Huangfu Cheng with cold eyes and sneered:
“The means of sowing discord are a little worse.
To you, those secret information means money!
How could you possibly give it up to someone else, right, Master of Baixin Sect?"
Murong's face darkened.
No wonder they were hiding, it turned out they were the remnants of Baixin Sect.
Baixinmen was very popular fifty years ago and specialized in selling information.
But for some unknown reason, they angered the emperors of the Three Kingdoms and were strangled by the combined forces of the three kingdoms. From then on, Baixinmen disappeared.
Everyone thought that Baixinmen had been destroyed in the massacre, but unexpectedly, there were still people alive in Baixinmen.
Moreover, in less than thirty years, he again placed informants in the Three Kingdoms to continue collecting various secrets for them.
It has to be said that a centipede is still alive even after death!
Huangfu Cheng was also stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party would guess this.
He turned around and grinned, "The Baixin Sect was destroyed long ago. Master Xu, are you saying this to get me attacked by a group?"
Xu Wuyan shook his head, “I wasn’t sure at first, but your name betrayed you.
The leader of Baixin Sect back then was named Huangfu, and your style of doing things just happens to be the same as that of Baixin Sect back then."
"All the people from Baixinmen are dead..."
"No!" Xu Wuyan interrupted him coldly:
"Back when we were hunting down the remnants of the Baixin Sect, my Xu family ancestor was soft-hearted and spared the Baixin Sect leader's son, who was less than a month old, behind the emperor's back because he felt the child was innocent and didn't deserve to die in there.
If he knew that his momentary weakness had caused countless more innocent souls to die in this world, he would probably regret it to death.
Huangfu Cheng, “…”
Xu Wuyan shook his head expressionlessly, "I don't care what you Baixinmen are going to do.
But you shouldn't touch my sister, so..."
"I never intended to hurt your sister. I only brought her here to lure you here." Huangfu Cheng interrupted him:
“My grandfather left a will saying that the Anping Palace has been kind to our Huangfu family and we must not oppose it.
That's why I led my men to evacuate the base directly and didn't fight to the death with you.
If you were injured and didn't go, and my men had really fought you, how many of them do you think would have escaped alive?"
Huangfu Cheng was disdainful.
Well, I paid it back that time, but later...
He hasn't forgotten those words, so they will confront each other sooner or later.
Xu Wuyan frowned, then said coldly, "What about my sister?"
"I don't know!" Huangfu Cheng shrugged.
"That idiot chased after them and looked for them, but he only found the carriage, not the people.
It seems your sister is also smart."
Xu Wuyan said with a cold face, "It's useless for you to tell me this, I want to see someone.
You are not allowed to go anywhere until you see someone!"
Having said that, Xu Wuyan raised the sword in his hand again.
Huangfu Cheng sighed, "Is there no room for negotiation? I promise to find the person for you and send him back safely, okay?"
Xu Wuyan shook his head. "Come with me. Once your people bring my sister back safely, I will naturally let you go."
Huangfu Cheng cannot die.
He can die, but not by his own hands.
If he died in his hands, I'm afraid the remnants of Baixin Sect would fight him to the death.
I am not afraid of them, but there are people behind me.
Moreover, they hide in the dark and are hard to guard against!
"What a pity." Huangfu Cheng shook his head again and said as he turned around:
"Stop them."
As soon as he finished speaking, the three old men immediately drew their swords and rushed towards Xu Wuyan and the other two.
The five of them fought together.
A hint of hostility flashed in Xu Wuyan's eyes. Want to leave?
I said that he couldn't leave without my consent.
And these few people who are in the way... kill them!
Xu Wuyan swung the sword in his hand fiercely!
…
At this moment, Huangfu Cheng stared at the people in front of him with a gloomy face, feeling angry.
Xu Wuyan really knows how to take advantage of people's hearts.
I was completely led by him.
I had asked him before whether he had captured the people I left in Beijia Village and learned my evacuation route from them.
He didn't answer his own question directly, which led him to think that he really knew it.
So when I left just now, I subconsciously chose another route, but I didn't expect to fall into the trap he had prepared.
It seems that I can't leave unless I get rid of these people in front of me.
Huangfu Cheng slowly pulled out his half-broken sword. This sword has a story and is worth collecting!
The men on the opposite side looked at each other, drew their weapons and rushed out.
After fighting for a while, several people fell to the ground, struggled for a few times, and then became motionless.
Huangfu Cheng stood in the middle and grinned!
Damn it, I pulled the wound when I just fought, and I’m afraid it’s bleeding again!
He kicked the person he had knocked unconscious, then pressed the wound on his chest with his hand, looked left and right, chose a direction, and staggered away.
If you don't leave now, Xu Wuyan will catch up.
He has no interest in being someone else's prisoner!
Xu Wuyan, you really can't underestimate him. If you underestimate him, you will be in big trouble!
Not long after, Xu Wuyan and Murong came over.
When he saw the people lying on the ground, Xu Wuyan's face darkened. He squatted down to check on the people lying on the ground. After finding that they were just unconscious, he breathed a sigh of relief.
But soon his face sank again.
He was seriously injured, and the five of us couldn't stop him. It seemed that Huangfu Cheng was hiding his abilities and we were deceived by him.
Murong's expression turned grim. "How true is what he said?"
Xu Wuyan glanced at him and said, "If you want to know, I'll get the file for you when I get back. You can take a look at it yourself. If it matches what's recorded, it's probably true."
"Didn't you say it wasn't with you?" Murong frowned. He felt like he was being fooled.
"It's definitely not with me." Xu Wuyan glanced at him:
"But I didn't say it wasn't with my wife."
Murong, "..."
