Chapter 232 Zisha, we meet again!
When Xuan Yue saw that the person coming was actually his own brother, Northern Cang Emperor Xuan Lie, he felt relieved, but when he saw the anger in his eyes, his voice weakened a little.
Emperor Xuan Lie of the Northern Cang Dynasty was accompanied by a dozen personal guards, holding bright torches in their hands, which made his angular face extremely clear. However, his expression was as gloomy as a wasteland before a rainstorm.
Staring at his sister with a sullen face, Xuan Lie snorted coldly, and his cloak swept across the whip at her feet:
"You troublemaker! I told you to stay in the villa, but you chose to fall for that mean-spirited man. The prairie wolves in the Northern Cang are not enough for you to choose from, yet you insist on embarrassing yourself in the Central Plains!"
Xuan Yue's face flushed crimson, and her hands subconsciously covered her exposed waist: "How could I..."
"You still dare to be so stubborn!"
Xuan Lie flicked his sleeve to interrupt her, but when he saw blood oozing from her cuffs, a trace of heartache flashed in his eyes.
He suddenly grabbed the medicine bag from the accompanying secret guard, took out the golden wound medicine and threw it to her:
"Let me take care of your wound first, and then I'll settle the score with you when I get back."
Xuan Lie turned and came to the battlefield, staring at the man and woman fighting. He drew the Taiyin Golden Knife in his hand, swung his long arm, and the wind from the knife swept up the fallen flowers on the ground. He shouted like thunder:
"stop!"
Chu Jin and Man Luo heard the noise behind them and stopped.
Xuan Lie's gaze passed over Manluo and landed on Chu Jin:
"Tianqi Imperial Master, Poison King Chu Jin?"
"Exactly!" Chu Jin put away his sword, took two steps back, squinted his eyes and looked up and down, a cold smile curled up at the corner of his mouth:
"If I am not mistaken, you are the Northern Blue Emperor Xuan Lie?"
"Exactly!"
Chu Jin raised his eyebrows:
"Great! I've issued a manhunt order, but I've never been able to find any trace of you. Today, I stumbled upon you by accident, and I got you without any effort!"
A hint of murderous intent also appeared in Xuan Lie's eyes:
"You want to capture me, and coincidentally, I also want to capture you. Then we'll each rely on our own abilities. Let me see what's so special about the Poison King Chu Jin!"
As he spoke, he swung the golden knife in his hand. The wind from the knife cut through the night with a sharp and piercing sound. The wolf head totem engraved on the blade looked ferocious and alive in the firelight. With one move, he split Huashan Mountain and hit Chu Jin in the face.
Chu Jin touched the ground with the tip of his sword and soared into the air. A poisonous green phosphorus light swirled along the sword's spine like a will-o'-the-wisp.
"The Northern Blue Wolf King is indeed worthy of his reputation. Unfortunately, no matter how strong the lone wolf is, it may not be able to defeat the poisonous scorpion!"
"Really? Then I'd like to give it a try!"
As he spoke, the golden knife and the long sword collided, sparks flying.
Xuan Lie took advantage of the momentum to sweep the sword across, and the dead branches and leaves around him flew into the air and were all chopped into pieces by the sword light.
Chu Jin took advantage of the situation and threw out the flaming powder from his sleeve. Amidst the red mist, Xuan Lie swung his sword fiercely. The poisonous powder was blown to both sides by the wind from his sword, producing sizzling white smoke on the trees on both sides.
"A trifle!"
Xuan Lie swung his sword again to wrap Chu Jin's sword, but when the other party dodged, he caught a glimpse of three dragon beard needles on his fingertips.
The tip of the needle was faintly blue, and was saturated with the poison of the Bone-Rotting Powder.
Xuan Lie kicked up three blue stones under his feet to block the hidden weapon. The stone flew past Chu Jin's face, but was pierced three inches by a poisonous needle when it landed.
The two men refused to give in to each other, and were evenly matched, with the golden knife and the long sword entangled in a ball.
Xuan Lie's sword was as fierce as a storm, and every blow brought up a whistling sound; Chu Jin used his ingenuity to transform his strength, and his sword moves were unconventional, with each move being vicious and deadly.
Manluo and Xuanyue watched from the side, their eyes fixed on the scene.
Xuan Yue worried about her brother, fearing he might be plotted against by Chu Jin. Man Luo didn't want Xuan Lie to lose, but deep down, she also didn't want Chu Jin to get hurt.
At this moment, the sound of iron hooves suddenly came from afar, and flames shot up into the sky, illuminating half of the night sky red.
A cavalry group broke through the darkness of night like a torrent and headed straight towards this side.
Manluo looked back and was shocked. The leader was wearing a beautiful blue brocade robe, and the pendant on the golden hair crown swayed slightly with the horse's head, making the smile in his eyes look particularly cold. It was the Crown Prince of Tianqi, Helian Feng!
The three hundred guards behind him drew their swords and rushed forward, surrounding the few people tightly.
When Helian Feng got close to them, he reined in his horse and raised his hand to fiddle with the Nine-Phoenix Gold-inlaid Jade on his waist. He looked down from above and slowly scanned everyone present, finally landing on Xuan Lie, who had already stopped.
"Emperor Bei Cang, since you have come all the way to Yandu, why not come back to your residence with me, the prince, and let me show my hospitality."
He paused, tapping the dragon pattern on the saddle with his fingertips:
"After all, there's so much that Bei Cang and Tian Qi need to talk about that it would probably take days and nights to finish!"
How could Xuan Lie not hear the hidden meaning of this "landlord's friendship" - it was obvious that they wanted to use him as a fish on the chopping board and force Beicang to withdraw its troops.
"I cannot afford the 'friendship' of His Royal Highness the Crown Prince."
Xuan Lie's voice was as cold as ice:
"If you want to keep me here, then you have to see if your guards can stop me, the wolf of the Northern Cang!"
Helian Feng chuckled and rode his horse half a step closer:
"Even the bravest wolf, if it finds itself in dire straits, it may not be able to defeat a flock of sheep. Moreover, if sheep are tamed, they can also become hungry dogs that devour people."
The firelight made the dark color in Helian Feng's eyes even deeper, and the sound of the guards behind him drawing their bows and crossbows was like the drumbeat of the god of death.
Xuan Lie no longer answered, he knew that what was waiting for them would be a brutal and bloody battle.
Helian Feng waved at Chu Jin: "A Jin, come back!"
Chu Jin hesitated for a moment, but still returned to Helian Feng's side:
"Your Highness, why are you here?"
Helian Feng glanced at Chu Jin, then glanced at Man Luo who was not far away, and curled his lips slightly:
"Zisha, we meet again!"
