Chapter 353: No Regrets Until Death
Although Xiao Nanyue's internal energy could not be condensed at this moment, his sword moves were still as exquisite as before.
Although the Eighth Style of "Jinghong" was taught by Xiao Beicheng himself, it now transformed into countless sword shadows in his hands, covering Xiao Beicheng.
Chu Jin's poisonous blade wrapped around Xiao Beicheng's lower body, and the red-robed man and the black-clothed man were on the left and right, forming a faint encirclement.
Xiao Beicheng tried his best to block, blocking left and right. Gradually, beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and he was exhausted.
He knew that this place was at the border of Apocalypse. If Han Xiao and the others transferred the troops stationed in Xinzhou, would he be alive?
Xiao Beicheng knew he couldn't waste any more time, so he feinted and took advantage of Xiao Nanyan's retreat to jump out of the circle. His eyes were like poisoned needles, piercing Chu Jin fiercely:
"Chu Jin, does Helian Feng know that you are helping Xiao Nanyan?"
Chu Jin was meaningless:
"My actions are personal and have nothing to do with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. As I said earlier, I am only repaying his favor today. If we meet again next time, we will still be hostile."
Xiao Beicheng stared at him with disdain, as if he had heard a joke:
"You? Don't forget who Manluo is from. You're such a traitor, you might be persuaded by that damn girl and turn against us in the battle."
"presumptuous!"
In front of so many people, Chu Jin felt a little embarrassed and blushed:
"Xiao Beicheng, stop your cold words. Why should you speculate on my actions? In short, you must not kill him today. You can do whatever you want to him tomorrow."
Xiao Beicheng stared at his red ears and suddenly laughed softly:
"Well, you bastard, that's really good!"
He turned around and waved his hand towards his people:
"withdraw!"
In the blink of an eye, they disappeared into the dense forest and disappeared without a trace.
Chu Jin looked at the direction where Xiao Beicheng disappeared, glanced at Xiao Nanyue again, and jumped on his horse.
"Xiao Nanyan, don't feel so good about yourself. I, Chu Jin, will still kill you if I see you again next time!"
Xiao Nanyan curled his lips and smiled: "I'm at your service anytime."
Watching Chu Jin and his men disappear into the night, Xiao Nanyue slowly inserted the Jinghong sword in his hand into the ground.
He had been poisoned by the miasma and his internal strength had not yet recovered. In his desperate attempt to force his luck, he ended up damaging his essence.
He expected that this trip to Nanzhao would be extremely dangerous, but he still traveled light and did not bring many people with him, just to reduce unnecessary trouble and see Xiyan as soon as possible.
Xiao Nanyan suddenly choked on a mouthful of blood, but couldn't help laughing:
He has been strategizing for many years, and now he is in his twenties, but he is still like a young boy. It is the first time in his life that he is so impulsive for a woman.
But he asked himself:
Do you regret it?
Never regret until death!
…
Helian Feng half-leaned on the soft couch in the carriage, his fingertips unconsciously stroking the jade pendant at his waist.
The Soul Killer's reports were like ice-hardened needles, piercing into his swollen temples one by one, making his head, which was already dizzy due to the miasma, even more painful.
He and Xiao Nanyue both had deep inner demons. The soul-bewitching miasma in the Soul-Locking Forest almost drained his internal strength. Even though Xiyan fed him the Awakening Pill, his internal strength was still dissipated.
Chu Jin, on the other hand, had woken up two days ago.
Chu Jin had been playing with poisons for years, so he had better poison resistance skills than him and Xiao Nanyue. In addition, he did not have too much inner demon, so he only inhaled a little bit of miasma in his body, which was not a big deal, and his internal strength had not dissipated.
The reason why he fainted was because he was not honest with his hands and was knocked unconscious by Manluo.
After Chu Jin woke up, Helian Feng was still asleep, so he had no choice but to prepare the return carriage and set off on his journey home.
Finally, after three days of travel, they were about to leave Liuzhou and arrive in Xinzhou, Tianqi.
An hour ago, a spy suddenly reported that Xiao Beicheng had set up an ambush on Yangguan Avenue three miles away, intending to kill Xiao Nanyue.
At that time, Helian Feng had just woken up, and Chu Jin asked him for orders to take people over to take a look.
He looked at the light dancing in Chu Jin's eyes and thought that he wanted to take advantage of Xiao Nanyue's weakness to attack him. He couldn't stop him. At this moment, he had lost all his internal strength and could only wait there.
However, after waiting for a full hour, there was no sign of Chu Jin, but only Shihun came back with dozens of secret guards.
"Your Highness, the Imperial Master...did not kill Xiao Nanyan. Instead, he and Xiao Nanyan forced Xiao Beicheng's men to retreat. He said he was repaying Xiao Nanyan for saving his life in the Soul-Bending Forest."
Helian Feng's face was gloomy: "Then why didn't he come back?"
Soul Killer had no choice but to bite the bullet and say, "The Imperial Master...he said that since His Highness is now safe and sound, he has to return to Nanzhao."
Helian Feng's breath suddenly stopped: "Why did he return to Nanzhao?"
Soul Slayer was Chu Jin's personal bodyguard. Seeing Helian Feng's bad complexion, sweat dripped down his forehead.
"The Imperial Master said... his women and children are still in Nanzhao, and he must bring them back before returning to Tianqi."
