Chapter 435 What I want is Xiyan!
Mingying stared at Chu Jin and said in surprise:
"National Master, why are you stopping me? Don't forget, you are His Highness's brother!"
Chu Jin's face was dark and hard to read. He glanced at Chu Yue, who was sobbing on the couch, and said in a cold and hard voice:
"You want to arrest my son, how can I just ignore it?"
When Xiao Beicheng saw Chu Jin coming out to cause trouble, he was furious. He forced Xi Yan back with a few sword strikes. The sword was as sharp as frost. He suppressed his anger and said:
"Chu Jin! We're only going to capture Xiao Nanyan's children and women, leaving your son alone. Is that okay with you? Now, take your son and leave immediately. Don't ruin our plans!"
Chu Jin snorted coldly:
"Xiao Beicheng, you are really despicable! If you have the guts, go fight Xiao Nanyan with real swords and guns. Bullying women and children, what kind of ability is that?"
"Chu Jin, if you're looking for death, I'll grant your wish!"
Xiao Beicheng was hit in the sore spot, and he laughed in anger, then raised his sword and stabbed towards Chu Jin's heart.
Chu Jin did not dodge or evade. He drew his sword and accurately blocked the opponent's sword. The two of them instantly engaged in a fight.
Mingying and Zou Xu recovered, looked at each other, and pounced on the child on the couch again.
Xiyan gritted her teeth and stood in front of the couch alone against two opponents. The sword light danced so fast that it was impenetrable. Even though her arm was cut, she refused to take a single step back.
Behind her was her Yin'er, Chu Yue, whom Manluo had entrusted to her. She had nowhere to retreat.
The fight between Chu Jin and Xiao Beicheng became more and more intense, from inside the tent to outside the tent.
Xiao Beicheng's swordsmanship is fierce and treacherous, and every move goes straight to the vital points; Chu Jin's swordsmanship is agile and erratic, seemingly casual, but he can always avoid fatal attacks by a hair's breadth.
The two figures intertwined in the firelight, and the sword energy stirred up the dust on the ground, which mixed with thick smoke and spread out.
At this moment, a white light suddenly cut through the night sky and fell between the two of them as fast as lightning.
The man who came was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and had an extremely handsome face, but his expression was so gloomy that water could drip out of it. It was Helian Feng.
He swung the long sword in his hand horizontally, accurately blocking the tip of Chu Jin's sword that was stabbing towards Xiao Beicheng's back. The force was so great that Chu Jin paused slightly.
"A Jin!"
Helian Feng's voice was icy cold, and his eyes were like poisoned knives, staring at Chu Jin intently:
"I have treated you well. Are you going to betray me and help Xiao Nanyan now?"
Chu Jin tightened his grip on the sword, his knuckles turning white beneath his brocade robe. His Adam's apple rolled a few times before he slowly spoke:
"Your Highness, I have never considered abandoning you. It's just that over the past six months, there has been one day where I haven't had a chance to ask you for clarification."
Helian Feng frowned slightly when he heard Chu Jin still calling him His Highness:
"What?"
Chu Jin stared into his eyes intently. "I just want to ask, Your Highness, a few months ago, you and I parted ways in Liuzhou. Have you ever returned to Jiangdu City?"
Helian Feng was slightly startled, then slowly shook his head:
"No! Why do you ask that?"
Chu Jin observed Helian Feng's expression and saw that he didn't seem to be lying. He glanced at Xiao Beicheng, who was standing beside him with a gloomy face, and finally let out a long sigh:
"I think I understand what's going on!"
A few months ago, Chu Jin saw Helian Feng stabbing Man Luo in Jiangdu with his own eyes, and he has always had a grudge about this.
However, he had known Helian Feng for several years after all, and had a deep understanding of Helian Feng's every move and martial arts routines. Although the man who stabbed Manluo that day looked exactly like Helian Feng, his lightness skills and body movements were obviously superior to Helian Feng's.
Besides, if Helian Feng really wanted to kill Manluo, he would have said so. He was his master, so there was no need to hide it from him.
However, the reason why he hadn't communicated with Helian Feng for more than half a year was all because of Manluo and Yue'er.
He wanted to stay in Nanzhao to take care of Yue'er and get Manluo back, and he didn't know how to explain it to Helian Feng.
Because he knew clearly in his heart that if he stood on Helian Feng's side, he would have to go against his woman and son, which he could not do no matter what, so he could only remain silent.
Now, it was confirmed from Helian Feng's mouth that it was not him who hurt Manluo. It must have been Xiao Beicheng who used the Xuanyan makeup technique to pretend to be Helian Feng, wanting to alienate him and Helian Feng.
He didn't want to expose it now, nor did he want to tell Helian Feng, because all this was not important.
Even if Helian Feng knew, he was determined to cooperate with Xiao Beicheng now, because he wanted to bring down Xiao Nanyue, but he couldn't do it with his own strength, so he could only seek the skin of a tiger.
Now, jumping out of the game and looking at the people involved, Chu Jin discovered that there was an essential difference between Xiao Nanyan and Xiao Beicheng.
At least, Xiao Nanyue is upright, while Xiao Beicheng is insidious and vicious.
On the day in the Soul-Locking Forest, Chu Jin saw that Xiao Nanyue still had a trace of brotherhood towards Helian Feng. After all, they were born of the same father.
However, Xiao Beicheng hated the Helian lineage extremely. If he came to power, the Helian lineage would be wiped out.
What Chu Jin had to do was to prevent Xiao Beicheng from succeeding, lest he retaliate against Helian Feng in the future.
After thinking about it, he raised his head slightly and looked at Helian Feng, with a complicated look in his eyes:
"Your Highness, Xiao Beicheng is threatening us with a child. This is not what a gentleman does, and it is not how Your Highness usually acts. After all, the disaster will not affect his wife and children."
The long sword in Helian Feng's hand trembled slightly, reflecting the struggle in his eyes:
"But, Ah Jin, I am different from Xiao Beicheng. I don't want to hold the child hostage. What I want is Xiyan!"
