Chapter 817 Who has the better skills?
"Huh?!"
The moment they heard this voice, everyone who had already prepared for battle was stunned and turned around abruptly.
Behind the two Kuilong men, Chu Xianping, who had climbed onto the city wall at some point, did not look at anyone. He just stared expressionlessly at Wei Changtian, who was only a few steps away from the city gate, with a calm gaze.
"Didn't you hear anything?!"
"Open the gates!"
A Kuilong man shouted again, and his tone was an unquestionable command.
The old man in black hesitated for a moment after coming to his senses, but finally gritted his teeth and shouted, "Open the city gate!"
“.”
“Boom!!”
Finally, when Wei Changtian only had three steps left to reach the city gate, the tall vermilion palace gate finally slowly opened with a loud bang.
There was total silence on the city wall. Everyone was staring at Chu Xianping who remained silent, not understanding why he would give in.
After all, Wei Changtian’s purpose of coming to Longshou Mountain this time was obvious. He clearly wanted to slap Lu Yuanjin in the face.
You labeled Gongsun Yan a traitor yesterday, and today I will take this traitor to Longshou Mountain openly.
If you are a traitor, why don't you dare to stop me? If you are a traitor, why do you open the palace gate for me?
In other words, Wei Changtian’s purpose of coming to Longshou Mountain today might just be to “come to Longshou Mountain.”
Regardless of fighting or not, the moment Gongsun Yan swaggered into the palace gate, his goal had been achieved.
In this situation, it would be better if we were defeated in a desperate battle, at least there would be an explanation, showing our attitude of confrontation.
But Chu Xianping chose to "give in".
yes.
This way there would be no conflict and everyone could survive.
But on the other hand, when people like them did not dare to resist Gongsun Yan and Wei Changtian, who would think that Lu Yuanjin could win the battle for the throne?
Isn’t this equivalent to direct “surrender”?
"Mr. Chu."
Frowning and staring at Chu Xianping, the old man in black asked in a deep voice: "Why do you do this?"
“.”
After glancing at the old man in black, Chu Xianping did not answer and quickly moved his gaze back to the bottom of the city wall.
"You!"
The old man in black was ignored and his face changed. He wanted to say something, but he didn't say it in the end.
After a few breaths, he just sighed helplessly, then turned his head to look at the situation under the city wall.
As it turned out, things did not deviate much from the norm.
After Wei Changtian used three sentences to make Chu Xianping open the palace gate, the carriage that Gongsun Yan was riding in slowly started moving not far away, and slowly drove towards the city wall under the escort of hundreds of guests.
The black flag embroidered with the word "An" swayed in the wind, and the sound of wheels rolling over the road could be clearly heard.
Looking at this scene, the people on the city wall felt mixed emotions.
On the one hand, they were somewhat glad that they didn't fight.
But on the other hand, they were somewhat unwilling to watch Gongsun Yan enter Longshou Mountain.
This contradictory mentality fills everyone's heart, except Chu Xianping.
He didn't say a word from beginning to end, and even his expression didn't change, as if he was completely out of the matter.
However, just as Gongsun Yan's carriage was traveling all the way from far to near and arrived in front of the palace gate and then entered the city cave, Chu Xianping suddenly straightened up and shouted a word loudly, which was beyond everyone's expectation.
"kill!!"
“.”
"kill!!!"
"Protect the prince!!!"
“Bang, bang, bang!”
“Ding ding dang dang!”
From tension, to calm, and then to chaos.
When Chu Xianping's word "kill" rang out with a reversal effect, the city walls were instantly plunged into the flash of swords and sabers.
More than ten top-three masters, including the old man in black, were stunned for just a moment, then laughed and rushed towards Wei Changtian, who was surrounded by countless long swords.
At the same time, the two Kuilong masters went straight to Gongsun Yan's carriage.
It was obvious that Chu Xianping was not giving in, he was just waiting for the best opportunity.
And his target was not Wei Changtian, but Gongsun Yan.
That's why he deliberately opened the city gate, in order to prevent Gongsun Yan from escaping.
As long as the old man in black and others can hold Wei Changtian back, the two Kuilong masters will be able to capture Gongsun Yan alive very quickly.
After that, the initiative will be firmly in your hands ."
Standing on the top of the city wall, watching the melee below, Chu Xianping's eyes were always on Wei Changtian.
He did not show any smugness and his expression remained very serious.
It can be seen that Chu Xianping is still extremely wary of Wei Changtian's methods and dares not let his guard down for a moment.
But it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.
The long sword was flying and the human figure was flashing.
Once again, Wei Changtian was fighting one against many. Although he was not at a disadvantage and had killed two third-rank masters, he was unable to escape from the encirclement for the time being.
On the other hand, the masters brought by Gongsun Yan were obviously no match for the two Kuilong's men. With the help of the imperial guards, they would surely be able to capture Gongsun Yan alive soon.
The situation was clearly improving, but Chu Xianping felt increasingly uneasy.
Because he did not see the real dragon that had displayed its power several times.
This undoubtedly means that Wei Changtian did not use his full strength.
But why? Why didn't he use his full strength?
Chu Xianping narrowed his eyes slightly, unable to understand.
It was not until Gongsun Yan's carriage was smashed to pieces and a Kuilong man grabbed a man in a brocade robe and rushed straight towards the city wall that he breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn't a stand-in, it was indeed Gongsun Yan "Stop!"
Chu Xianping waved his hand suddenly, realizing his goal had been achieved, and shouted loudly, and the battlefield instantly returned to calm.
Thousands of imperial guards withdrew from the battle and surrounded the palace guests who had not yet died in the battle.
The old man in black and more than a dozen other masters also retreated, putting some distance between themselves and Wei Changtian.
More importantly, even Wei Changtian stopped and just stood there, glancing with a smile at Gongsun Yan who had been captured on the city wall.
Laughing? What was he laughing at? Without a doubt, this was definitely not a normal reaction after being "plotted against".
Not only that, after Wei Changtian recalled all the long swords to the Starry Sheath, he even shouted towards the city wall -
"Brother Chu, what a great trick!"
“.”
His pupils shrank. How could Chu Xianping not understand at this moment that something went wrong somewhere in his process?
But he really couldn't figure out what went wrong.
Gongsun Yan is indeed him, and now he is definitely in his hands.
As long as I want, I can take his life at any time, and then there will be no one who can compete with Lu Yuanjin. Wait!
Lu Yuanjin!!
Chu Xianping suddenly turned his head and shouted at the old man in black:
"Where is Lu Yuanjin now?!"
"this"
The old man in black was stunned, and understood something in an instant. He hurriedly took out a piece of burning jade from his arms, probably to check on Lu Yuanjin's safety.
As time passed and his face turned paler, the result was self-evident.
For a moment, the city walls fell into deathly silence.
However, Wei Changtian still looked calm, and even looked at Chu Xianping from a distance and sneered:
"Brother Chu."
"Why don't you guess what Liu Shi did?"
