Chapter 380: A Three-foot-tall Child Blocks the Road
Zhao Wuyang felt a little at a loss. He didn't know if his behavior just now had disgusted his companions. He was so panicked for a moment that he even forgot about sending the county magistrate away.
Since childhood, the Lord of Guyang City had taught him that the happiness of the people was the joy of the ruler, and that as the ruler of a region, one must never abuse power. Now that he was acting like this, wasn't he going against his father's teachings?
A group of people were still kneeling on the ground outside the village, but Zhao Wuyang was still in a daze and didn't notice it at all. It was only when Xinyi behind him coughed twice that he came to his senses.
After dealing with the unscrupulous county magistrate, dismissing the legal advisors and yamen runners, and pacifying the villagers, Zhao Wuyang took the token handed back by Xinyi with a heavy heart, his mind wandering.
At this moment, Zhao Wuyang was suddenly hugged by the neck from behind, and the huge force almost made him fall down.
"Great, Xiao Wuyang, why don't you take out this good stuff earlier!" Long Qi shook Zhao Wuyang, who was just at his shoulder, with such excitement that it seemed like he was shaking a piggy bank.
Liu Xia also smiled: "I was still thinking about how to deal with it, and forgot about Wuyang."
As the son of a provincial governor, Liu Xia naturally understood the noble status of Zhao Wuyang, but Zhao Wuyang was not arrogant, and they had always been getting along as brothers, so he had always put this matter behind him.
After this incident, Liu Xia understood that Zhao Wuyang truly treated them as friends, so no matter what, they would not make him feel uneasy, nor would they let him down.
After all, Wuyang is their youngest brother!
Zhao Wuyang had few friends since he was a child, and the servants in his family treated him as their master, so he always longed to have a few close friends around him. So when he met Long Qi and others, he cherished this fate even more.
The looks of Long Qi and Liu Xia finally put Zhao Wuyang's mind at ease. He could feel that everyone was still the same as before and did not hold any grudges against each other because of what had just happened.
Zhao Wuyang's eyes were a little moist. Just when he wanted to raise his hand and pretend to rub his eyes to cover it up, he suddenly became speechless.
“Yes… yes…”
Looking in the direction of Zhao Wuyang's finger, he saw a man in black clothes in the woods. He seemed to have been standing there for a long time, and the man's figure was indeed very similar to Lingxiang.
Before they could react, Long Qi rushed over, and in a moment, he and the man in the forest disappeared.
Only then did Zhao Wuyang speak out: "It's that guy from last time!"
Xinyi was the first to come back to her senses and was about to follow, but at this moment, another figure appeared and blocked their way.
The newcomer was short, with a black scarf covering his face. His short black shirt was a little loose on him. He had brown hair, looking like a stranger, and had two...
Little dragon bun...
It’s actually a child!
But before the three could react with surprise, the man, without a word, struck out with a fierce palm strike, unbelievably childish. Xinyi quickly pushed Zhao Wuyang aside, dodging with a somersault. Seeing his first strike had failed, the child spun around, using the force of his outward swing to punch Liu Xia.
Liu Xia was watching the fun and secretly laughing at how Xinyi and the other girl were frightened by a baby, but he was not prepared for the black-clothed man to suddenly target him, so he quickly raised his hand to block it with his sword.
After this, Liu Xia realized that he was too superficial.
Chengxin Zhenren often taught them that the world is full of wonders and that one should never judge a person by appearance. As the saying goes, those who underestimate their enemies underestimate themselves. When facing any opponent, one should remain respectful and respectful, as it is a sign of self-respect.
The man in black punched the scabbard, causing Liu Xia to feel pain in the palm of his hand. He never expected that a child could have such great strength.
Maybe it's not just about strength...
Liu Xia retreated a few feet, then rolled backwards, creating some distance between him and the black-robed man. Facing such a formidable foe, he had no choice but to confront him seriously. But just as he was about to draw his sword, he saw the man making a finger gesture.
What? He's actually from the Taoist sect!
The three of them were shocked to see that this child, who was only three feet tall, had already mastered magic! But what shocked them even more was yet to come.
The boy put two fingers together, pinched his fingers, and drew them in the air. It turned into a sharp sword energy and whistled towards Zhao Wuyang.
Zhao Wuyang had not yet recovered from his surprise when he was caught off guard by the boy's sudden attack. Seeing the sword energy approaching his face, he felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows, but his feet could not move at all.
And this technique...
In a flash, a dark shadow flashed by. It was Xinyi who stood in front of Zhao Wuyang. With a clang, the sword energy was split apart in an instant.
The deer antler blades, reforged by Luo Li, were sharper than ever. Not to mention this level of sword energy, even if they encountered the Zen-inspired Iai of General Wolf Head, they would be no match. However, the deer antler blades were no longer double-edged, but now had two blades combined, forming a long-handled sun and moon blade.
Ever since Xinyi lost his left arm, the double-edged sword was no longer convenient for him to use. He had asked Lu Ling for advice, and Lu Ling said that the so-called sword is not bound by form, so Xinyi boldly handed the sword to Luo Li.
After splitting the sword energy, Xinyi looked solemn, as did Liu Xia. The three of them stared at the child intently, trying to find some clues from him.
Strange!
It's really weird!
What the child used just now was actually the Lotus Heart Sword Intent!
The Lotus Heart Skill was created by Lingxiang. Even when Long Qi shamelessly asked to learn it, she never taught him at all. But now, two people appeared who can use the Lotus Heart Sword Intent. What is going on?
"Who are you, and what do you intend to do by harassing us?"
Xinyi asked in a deep voice. Liu Xia and Zhao Wuyang also held their breath and concentrated. However, the child did not answer. He just flipped his hand and two yellow talismans flew towards the three of them.
Another spell!
The talisman paper rustled, but nothing changed. The three of them didn't know what to do. When the talisman came closer, Liu Xia was about to use his sword to push it away when it suddenly shattered and scattered. A sudden gust of wind blew, blinding them. The three of them quickly covered their faces with their sleeves.
It's the Wind Talisman! Banxia's usual move!
However, there was yellow sand mixed in the wind blew by this person, probably because of another talisman.
Xinyi chuckled. This was perfect. It saved her a lot of effort.
In the blink of an eye, Xinyi disappeared. After some dodging, she suddenly appeared behind the boy in black clothes, grabbed his neck and pressed him to the ground.
The boy did not struggle and let Xinyi hold him down. Xinyi felt strange and was about to ask something when suddenly yellow smoke rose from his hands.
The strong wind suddenly stopped, and Xinyi's men were left with only a man in black clothes, but they disappeared without a trace.
It's witchcraft!
It's actually a demon? !
Can demons also practice Taoism?
Xinyi frowned continuously - demons are demons, and generally speaking, they disdain the cultivation methods of humans, but nothing is absolute. After all, there are all kinds of strange things in the world. Isn't there such a person in her impression?
etc……
Knowing the Lotus Heart Technique, and being a demon, could it be...
"Um..." A childish voice came from the corner. A head slowly emerged from the darkness, revealing smooth arms. A shy look appeared on her face. "Can you give me back my clothes first?"
It’s him!
The three of them were shocked and looked towards the forest...
Could it be that the person who led Long Qi away was really Lingxiang?
