A moment later, after no other martial artists entered the open space, Cao Zhengchun suddenly said, "I have other matters to attend to, so I will trouble Lord Zhuge and Lord Shenhou to guard this place."
After speaking, Cao Zhengchun nodded to Zhu Wushi and Zhuge Zhengwo, then turned and walked slowly to the side.
However, as they walked, Cao Zhengchun couldn't help but glance at Chu Qinghe and the others.
The moment their eyes met, Cao Zhengchun gave a slight nod in acknowledgment.
Less than a quarter of an hour after Cao Zhengchun left, a figure quickly approached Zhu Wushi and whispered something in his ear.
A few breaths later, under the watchful eyes of those around him, Zhu Wushi actually exchanged a few words with Zhuge Zhengwo and then left with his hands behind his back.
Seeing this, Sikong Zhaixing, standing beside Lu Xiaofeng, couldn't help but ask, "In another incense stick's time, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng should be arriving. Why have Zhu Wushi and Cao Zhengchun left at this time?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Manlou smiled and said, "Zhu Wushi and Cao Zhengchun are gone, but we still have Zhuge Zhengwo. With the thousands of guards outside the Taihe Hall, plus the divine crossbow and the Grandmaster Zhuge, we can be sure that the warriors around the Taihe Hall have settled down."
Sikong Zhaixing thought for a moment and said, "That's right! There's really no need for that."
After saying that, Sikong Zhaixing looked at Lu Xiaofeng's slightly furrowed brows and couldn't help but ask, "Little Lu, what are you thinking about?"
Lu Xiaofeng said, "It's nothing, I was just thinking about the ribbon."
……
Just as the more than ten thousand martial artists in the arena were whispering amongst themselves, a gentle breeze suddenly swept across the night sky.
With this gust of wind, the air seemed to have a fresher feel to it.
Chu Qinghe, whose expression had been somewhat lazy, raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, saying, "Interesting, it's actually the two poisons, Yin Chi Datura and Bai Xiang Ying Lan."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe gently waved his folding fan at Shuimu Yinji and Qu Feiyan and the other women.
Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, and considering his actions just now, the women, knowing him well, immediately understood what was going on.
In response, Qu Feiyan asked, "Young Master, what kind of poison is this Yin Chi Datura?"
Chu Qinghe said calmly, "The Yin Chi Datura is a variant of Datura with special effects. It has a paralyzing effect and can reduce a martial artist's five senses and perception. Under this poison, even a martial artist at the Grandmaster level can not perceive more than thirty feet with his true qi."
"As for the Hundred Fragrance Cherry Blossom, it has special medicinal effects. After taking it, it can change the fluctuation of true qi in a martial artist's body in a short period of time."
"For example, make the true qi fluctuations in the body of a martial artist in the early stage of the Innate Realm become similar to the true qi fluctuations in the body of a martial artist in the perfect Grandmaster Realm."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe seemed to have thought of something, and his brows furrowed slightly.
"That's a bit unnecessary."
As he muttered to himself, Chu Qinghe's mind raced.
His gaze then fell on Zhuge Zhengwo in the distance, and then he glanced at Lu Xiaofeng and the others.
As his thoughts raced, a sudden realization dawned on Chu Qinghe's eyes.
"Ha! A scheme within a scheme, quite the shrewd calculation!"
Hearing Chu Qinghe's words, Shuimu Yinji and Qu Feiyan and the other women all looked bewildered.
Meeting the gazes of the women, Chu Qinghe chuckled and said, "It seems that the palace will be even more lively tonight."
Seeing that Chu Qinghe did not say it explicitly, Qu Feiyan couldn't help but ask him.
However, before Qu Feiyan could speak, two soaring sword intents emerged one after the other from the southwest and northeast of the Taihe Hall.
Under the powerful and chilling sword intent, some martial artists outside the Hall of Supreme Harmony noticed that the longswords in their hands, which were not yet unsheathed, trembled slightly.
The next instant, under everyone's gaze, two figures dressed in white, as white as snow, descended from the sky beneath the bright moon, which was like a silver plate, and landed on the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
One of them had a fair complexion and a light beard, and wore a snow-white robe. His eyes looked like two cold stars in the darkness.
Who else could it be but Ye Gucheng?
The other person was tall and upright, dressed in white as snow, but the sword at his waist was black.
Both men were dressed in white and had cold, stern expressions.
The moonlight was dreamlike, like a light veil draped over the body.
At this moment, Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue, both dressed in snow-white robes and lightly holding long swords, on the roof of the Hall of Supreme Harmony, gave off completely different feelings.
Ye Gucheng gives people the impression of arrogance.
Even without saying anything, he gives people the feeling of being high above the heavens, someone they have to look up to.
As for Ximen Chuixue, it was cold.
Unlike the aloofness and unattainability that Yaoyue possessed.
Ximen Chuixue gives people the feeling of being like a cold stone on a snow-capped mountain, making people feel that strangers should not approach him.
It was at the moment the two appeared that the martial artists on the open ground were no longer present.
Even Qu Feiyan and Shuimu Yinji unconsciously shifted their gaze to the Taihe Hall.
Just as everyone's attention was focused on the Hall of Supreme Harmony, Chu Qinghe's voice quietly reached the ears of the women.
"Don't just stand there like an idiot, move a little."
As he spoke, Chu Qinghe waved his fan and added more concealing powder to himself and the women.
In contrast, Shuimu Yinji and Qu Feiyan and the other women looked at Chu Qinghe with puzzled expressions.
