Unofficial history is really wild...
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Outside Sancai Town, Ren Xuan stepped on Yanshi's chest, turned his wrist, and pulled the knife out of the other's heart neatly.
Above the night sky, red fireworks exploded from all directions like sharp arrows, covering the entire sky.
Ren Xuan looked up at the scene, his brows furrowed. "This is the contact signal sent by the Silver Guards in an emergency."
He raised his hand and wiped the blood from his face. "...There's no need to go to Qingtong Town anymore. Let's head straight for the nearest signal point. Xie Lingyan will probably be heading there too."
Yue Anshan was stunned when he heard this, then scratched his head and said with a wry smile: "So many signal points..."
Yue Anshan sighed softly, "Ren Xuan, I've finally figured it out—every time I run into you, it's bound to be bad luck."
Upon hearing this, Ren Xuan retorted with displeasure, "If your men hadn't failed to keep an eye on Lu Xiyun, would we have had to chase him from Fengtai Camp to Yinshu City, and then rush all the way here from Yinshu City overnight?"
Yue Anshan couldn't help but sigh, "...I'm really impressed by Lu Xiyun. Xie Lingyan wasn't in the city, so he could have waited all night, but he ran away overnight. Now, we're chasing her, but we don't even know where to go."
Yue Anshan looked hopeless and continued to complain, "If you ask me, our prince is truly amazing. Which other prince is like him? It's not enough that he chased us all the way from the main camp to Yinshu City, but he even chased us out overnight."
Yue Anshan: "Even if he had rested for one night, we wouldn't be in the dark now, searching the world like a pair of fools."
Ren Xuan waved his hand, downplaying the incident as if he wasn't taking it seriously at all. "When Your Highness was implicated, Lu Xiyun traveled thousands of miles to secretly protect him. He was on the run for thousands of miles, and this is just the beginning."
Yue Anshan's eyes lit up and he immediately took a step closer: "I've heard of this!"
Yue Anshan lowered his voice, his tone thick with gossip, "I heard that Lu Xiyun fought off more than a dozen pursuers with just a sword. By the time they reached the outskirts of Longyuan City, he was the only one left by His Highness' side!"
Yue Anshan lowered his voice, sounding mysterious and saying, "I know something about this." "I also heard that they had a fight outside Longyuan City. Lu Xiyun just walked away, and His Highness knelt in the snow for a whole day. Is this true or not?"
Ren Xuan's mouth twitched, and he thought to himself that this unofficial history was really wild.
Of course, the official history...is not that official either.
Ren Xuan rubbed his nose, sighing inwardly. Qin Shu, that loser, had been sobering when his defenses were broken, only to be scolded by Lu Xiyun and finally sobered up. — Could this be discussed?
He continued to lower his voice, trying to salvage the dog emperor's image. "Old Yue, it's just you. Don't spread it. Let me tell you this—there was definitely no kneeling. But there was definitely a quarrel."
Ren Xuan paused, recalling the earth-shattering confrontation of that year, and said meaningfully, "Back in Longyuan City, Lu Xiyun pointed at His Highness's nose and started cursing. None of the six veterans in the hall dared to say a word."
After saying that, Ren Xuan couldn't help but touch his nose again, and didn't mention that he was the one-sixth who dared not speak out.
Yue Anshan was stunned when he heard this, his eyes widening: "Lu Xiyun is simply lawless!"
Ren Xuan was delighted, his smile deep: "Old Yue, it's a pity that you weren't in Longyuan City back then. Otherwise, you could have fought him."
Yue Anshan's head jumped when he heard this, and he immediately exploded: "I hit him?! He can kill ten of me with one hand!"
Ren Xuan nodded seriously: "That's right, you are lucky not to be in Longyuan City."
Yue Anshan: "..."
As they were talking, the northern sky suddenly lit up.
A dazzling sword light tore through the sky, and the endless night seemed to be cut in two.
"Oh shit! The Tiangang Flow is cut off!" Ren Xuan blurted out, "Lu Xiyun is over there!"
Before he finished speaking, Ren Xuan had already jumped onto his horse, turned the reins, and galloped towards the direction of the sword light like lightning.
The two of them sped along and soon arrived at a town in chaos.
The streets were in a mess, tiles were broken, stalls were scattered all over the place, and shop doors were torn apart.
The air was filled with thick smoke and the smell of blood.
It was obvious that a fierce battle had taken place here.
Before they even stepped into the town, the nervous guards suddenly drew their swords and surrounded them!
The guards were like bowstrings stretched to their limit, their voices filled with suppressed tension: "Who are you?! Tell me your names!!"
When Yue Anshan saw the situation, he immediately raised his hands high, fearing that these people would get too nervous and stab him directly.
"Brothers, don't get excited!" Yue Anshan said in a slow tone, "We are here to look for someone."
Ren Xuan nodded and said, "That sword light just now was from our friend."
When the guard heard Ren Xuan mention the word "friend", his expression finally relaxed a little.
The leading guard saluted with his fists clasped, his tone still a little reserved. "Excuse me, the town has been hit by a sudden change, and we are all panic-stricken. Are you referring to the young swordsman? He carried our young master to find a doctor."
Yue Anshan raised his eyebrows and said in a surprised tone, "Carrying? What happened to your young town master?"
The guard's face was bitter, and he gritted his teeth and said, "He was beaten by those gray-robed men and kept spitting blood."
Ren Xuan's eyes darkened slightly, and he asked directly, "Where are they now?"
The guard raised his hand and pointed deep into the town: "The mayor is placing the wounded ahead. Just follow this road and you'll find him."
Ren Xuan nodded and thanked him, then headed towards the town without saying a word.
Further ahead, an old man stood in the crowd, directing the townspeople to accommodate the injured.
"Here, carry the seriously injured to the open space in the east, quickly! Where's the water?! Who's found a doctor?!"
Ren Xuan paused, quickened his pace, and approached, clasping his fists and bowing: "You are the mayor of this place, right?"
But the old town lord didn't even turn his head, just waved his hand, and was still busy directing his men.
"We are not receiving any outside guests tonight! We can talk about it another day!"
Ren Xuan wanted to ask more, but the old town master had already turned around and continued to work, not giving him a chance to interrupt.
Just when Ren Xuan felt helpless, a familiar voice came from a distance.
He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Lu Xiyun leaping up and down, landing lightly beside him without even raising a speck of dust. "Old man, the old man at the end of the town said that the young town master is fine, so don't worry."
At this moment, the old town master finally stopped being selectively deaf. He immediately put down what he was doing and patted Lu Xiyun on the shoulder. His tone was gentle and his eyes were kind: "Xiaofeng, stop busying yourself. Drink some water and take a rest."
——Xiaofeng?
Ren Xuan almost suffocated with the breath in his throat.
He subconsciously looked at Lu Xiyun.
The prince looked calm as usual. He took the water bag and drank a sip without changing his expression. His movements were so smooth as if he was born with this name.
Xiaofeng...Lu Yingfeng...
Ren Xuan's eyelids twitched wildly.
My goodness, whenever this ancestor goes out, no matter whether he does something good or bad, he always reports it to his brother's name. This bad habit has not changed at all.
If Lu Yingfeng knew about this in his afterlife, I'm afraid his grave would be smoking with anger.
