Chapter 90 If he doesn't kill Jiang Shao, he will live in vain
These two lives are different after all.
In the previous life, Yan Xingchuan and Cui Si were engaged, and Cui Si was the future queen of Northern Yan. The attitude of the Cui family was very different from now.
Even Cui Jing, although he had the ability to coordinate and command operations, mostly sat in the rear and commanded the operations.
Cui Sanlang is still as elegant as ever, and he is not stained by a speck of dust on this battlefield.
But in this life, because of a problem in the marriage contract, Yan Xingchuan would not marry the daughter of the Cui family as his queen. The Cui family was eager to make achievements and wanted to gain a foothold among the ministers of Northern Yan in order to consolidate the position of the Cui family.
Now, Cui Jing had no choice but to put aside his face and take the stage himself.
Yan Xingchuan didn't know that Cui Jing's eloquence had such miraculous effects.
Jiang Shao is seven or eight years older than Yan Xingchuan. He is extremely talented and has never slacked off for many years. He is indeed extraordinary in terms of martial arts.
This is also the reason why he is confident that he can defeat Yan Xingchuan.
Yan Xingchuan may be slightly less talented, but he has fought countless battles over the years and is a ruthless man who has fought his way through mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
If we analyze the abilities of both sides here, Jiang Shao has a slightly better chance of winning, but Yan Xingchuan also has a great chance of turning the tables.
But Yan Xingchuan was reborn.
In his previous life, he lived to be nearly forty years old and had been fighting everywhere, fighting countless wars.
Therefore, even though outsiders thought the two sides were evenly matched and the battle was hard to determine the winner, Jiang Shao was actually being suppressed everywhere.
He abandoned his horse and his long weapons.
All that was left was the sword in his hand.
As soon as Yan Xingchuan finished speaking, he suddenly jumped up, with the long sword in his hand as fast as lightning and as heavy as a thousand pounds.
Jiang Shao blocked and dodged, and soon the palm of his hand holding the sword became numb and his bones ached.
The long sword would occasionally hit his armor with a clang, sparks flying, and it almost broke through the armor.
Jiang Shao groaned and swallowed the blood that he almost vomited.
"Xingchuan." Jiang Shao's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he stared at Yan Xingchuan with the gaze of a cold poisonous snake.
At this moment, it seemed as if his high-sounding disguise was torn apart, revealing his true face.
"Do you remember the Lin family?" Jiang Shao drew his sword and flew forward.
He first used his long sword to block Yan Xingchuan's Zhan Long Yuan, then threw the long sword to his left hand and grabbed Zhan Long Yuan with his right hand.
Blood immediately gushed out and flowed down the sword.
At this time, the two men were standing very close to each other. Jiang Shao flipped the long sword that had just fallen into his left hand and swung it horizontally, as if it was about to cut across Yan Xingchuan's neck.
"Lin Qingning, do you remember? I know where she is."
Jiang Shao said this just before the long sword swept across.
Yan Xingchuan paused for a moment, then his eyes turned cold. He suddenly pulled out his sword with great force and retreated.
The sword blade just passed by his neck, and his longsword was pulled hard by him, passing through the hand holding the longsword.
The sword blade cut through the palm, split the bones, and the entire palm was severed.
The upper half of the palm including the thumb was still on the hand, while the lower half of the palm including the four fingers fell to the ground.
The sound of half a palm hitting the ground was not loud, and not even much dust was raised on the ground.
But there was dead silence on the battlefield.
Jiang Shao, the prince of the Duke of Ping in the imperial court, who was hailed as the undefeated general of the Great Zhou, actually had his palm chopped off.
Jiang Shao himself was stunned.
"Prince!"
"Prince!"
The imperial army was thrown into chaos for a moment, and some soldiers were about to advance on horseback.
Shen Sui also came forward with his men: "Everyone, the winner is still undecided, are you trying to break the agreement?"
"If you want to fight, then come on."
The court officers and soldiers paused upon hearing this and hesitated for a moment.
Yan Xingchuan naturally would not wait for Jiang Shao to admit defeat. What he wanted was Jiang Shao's life.
Just when Jiang Shao was stunned, he raised his sword and stepped forward again.
Jiang Shao came back to his senses and fought with Yan Xingchuan with the sword in his left hand.
Speaking of which, Jiang Shao practiced using dual swords.
His left hand is just as good as his right hand in wielding the sword, but he just doesn't show it to others easily.
Now that he was forced into a desperate situation, he revealed it.
"The outcome is still undecided." As the long swords clashed, Jiang Shao's forehead broke into a cold sweat, but his aura remained undiminished. "I haven't lost yet."
"I didn't lose to Yan Xingshan back then, and I won't lose to you today."
Yan Xingchuan said, "Then the outcome will be decided by life and death. Today, only one of us can walk out of here alive."
However, at this moment, nine sharp arrows suddenly flew from the top of the Chongshan City tower and shot straight at Yan Xingchuan.
When the Northern Yan army saw the hidden arrows being shot, their faces changed.
"Master, be careful—"
Shen Sui first led a team to kill.
Xu Dazhi also led the vanguard troops forward.
Yan Xingchuan sensed a hidden arrow and his face changed. He was about to fly away to avoid it.
But at this time Jiang Shao said: "You really don't remember Lin Qingning. Your cousin from the Lin family has been waiting for you to take her home."
Yan Xingchuan thought of the many things Lin Qingning had suffered at the hands of Jiang Shao, and suddenly a huge rage rose in his heart. He turned around and went to kill Jiang Shao.
“You deserve to die!”
If it weren't for Jiang Shao, how could Lin Qingning have suffered all those hardships!
If it weren't for Jiang Shao, how could Lin Qingning have died of old age!
If it weren't for Jiang Shao, how could he and Cui Si have come to this day!
She resented and hated him so much that she wished he would never appear in front of her again and that they would just be strangers in this life.
If he doesn't kill Jiang Shao, he will have lived in vain.
A long arrow flew towards him, and Jiang Shao dodged it. Seeing the arrow with a cold glow coming at him, he narrowed his eyes, and when he dodged, he revealed the hand with the broken palm.
Yan Xingchuan slashed Long Yuan with his sword, cutting off Jiang Shao's arm.
The long arrow followed and shot straight into his heart, and the blood from the broken arm splashed a few drops on his face.
He wanted to dodge, but Jiang Shao had already dropped the sword in his left hand, and clenched his five fingers into claws, holding his arm tightly with all his strength, making it impossible for him to dodge.
The long arrow arrived in an instant and pierced through his back.
Yan Xingchuan only had time to slightly shift his body to avoid the attack, then suddenly drew his sword and chopped off Jiang Shao's head.
However, Jiang Shaosong rolled to the ground, avoiding his sword and a flying arrow.
Just at this moment, Shen Sui arrived with his soldiers and blocked the nine arrows that were shot from behind.
Shen Sui reached out and supported Yan Xingchuan: "Master? How are you?"
Yan Xingchuan's forehead was covered with cold sweat. He shook his head and ordered, "Kill Jiang Shao!"
Chen Sui paused for a moment. He wanted to say that it was more important to protect Yan Xingchuan and get him back first, but when he met Yan Xingchuan's gaze, he had no choice but to obey.
He handed the man over to Yanyunwei to take back, and then led his men to hunt down Jiang Shao.
"Stabbing someone from behind is despicable and shameless!" Xu Dazhi roared loudly and led his troops to kill.
"The imperial court is unfaithful and treacherous, and the Duke of Ping's mansion is nothing but a fraud who has deceived the world and stolen its reputation—"
"Dare to hurt my master! Kill—"
"Kill him—"
"Today, at Chongshan Pass, no one will be left alive—"
