The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 293 Wanwan vs. Xu Ziling

Luoyang.

This city has been one of the best cities in the world since the Zhou emperor moved the capital. With the Heluo Plain and eight passes and four fortresses, it can be called a small Guanzhong. In this era, it is the undisputed largest city in the world and the capital of the Sui Dynasty.

Xu Ziling saw from afar a tall and majestic city located on the plain. The city wall alone was several feet high, and the gate was wide enough for more than a dozen war horses to pass through in parallel. It was far larger than any other city he had seen. He couldn't help but sigh, "Luoyang is worthy of being the capital of the Sui Dynasty. I wonder how much manpower and material resources were consumed."

When seeing this city, Su Ming's eyes showed nostalgia. In The Legend of the Condor Heroes, Guo Jing re-established the Great Zhou, swept across the north and south, and made Luoyang the capital. Luoyang in that world was the center of the Central Plains dynasty. Logically speaking, with the foundation left by the previous dynasty, Luoyang at that time should have been more majestic than the Luoyang today.

But what he saw was the opposite. Yang Guang was engaged in massive construction and building palaces, the scale and structure of which far exceeded the Luoyang in The Legend of the Condor Heroes. But then again, the scale of the imperial cities built by ancient emperors became smaller and smaller as time went on, not because of inadequate technology, but because all kinds of wood had been used up by the previous dynasty, so much so that the wood for building the palaces had to be transported from Southeast Asia at great cost.

Su Ming patted his shoulder and stepped forward, "Let's go and take a good look at this city."

The two men entered the city without concealing their figures and faces, and this scene was seen by some people who were paying attention.

……

The rooftop of Tingfangxuan.

"Kou Zhong worships Song Que as his master. Have you found out the origin of Master Xu Ziling?" A woman dressed in plain and elegant palace clothes, with her face hidden deep in the heavy gauze, said softly. She was slender and graceful, with a high bun on her head. Even if you can't see her beautiful face, you can still feel her elegant and graceful demeanor.

Bai Qing'er knelt on the ground and bowed her head and replied, "Master, my sect has few information channels in the south, and has no intersection with the Taoist sect. I only heard that Xu Ziling's master is also a Taoist priest. This time the two of them went north together to unify the entire Taoist sect and pave the way for his disciples."

"Don't make excuses. We haven't even found out the man's name. What use are you?" As soon as the words fell, an invisible pressure suddenly fell, as if a big hand held her in the palm of its hand. For a moment, Bai Qing'er actually had difficulty breathing.

A gentle voice sounded from the side, "Master, they have already entered the city. Let me go meet them first. My junior sister is still responsible for the affairs of Wagang Village. Let her go this time."

"Hmph." With a cold snort, Bai Qing'er collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, her beautiful eyes filled with fear and a sense of survival.

"I'll spare you this time." The next moment, the curtains opened without wind, and a beautiful woman in palace dress walked out, like a strong queen with a strong aura. "Wanwan, don't take it lightly. Xu Ziling was able to kill Du Fuwei, and his martial arts skills are not inferior to yours. It's not easy for him to teach such a disciple."

Wanwan came forward, hugged Zhu Yuyan's arm, and said coquettishly, "Master, I understand. Let's go."

Seeing her apprentice's quirky girlish demeanor, Zhu Yuyan's icy mood eased a lot, and then she glanced at Bai Qing'er, "The matter of Wagang Village is urgent, don't come back for the time being."

"Disciple obey!"

……

Late Night Inn.

Su Ming was meditating in the room. The bright moonlight shone through the window onto the floor, illuminating his handsome face. Suddenly, he opened his eyes and shouted, "Come out!"

With a shout, the windows and doors opened, as if his words came true. The energy of heaven and earth centered on him spread out like waves. Two figures on the roof not far away were caught off guard, their energy disordered, and their figures were revealed in the moonlight.

"Someone is coming?" Xu Ziling was startled when he heard the voice. Warning signs arose in his heart. He jumped out of the window lightly and climbed onto the roof of the inn in a few steps. He saw the master and disciple across the street at a glance.

Under the moonlight, three figures stood there, the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful, making people forget the world when they saw them.

Xu Ziling stared at the two women opposite him and was greatly surprised. He had never seen such beautiful women. At this moment, he forgot about beauties like Zhen Sao, Susu, and Fu Jun'er, leaving only the two beauties in front of him.

One is dignified and beautiful, with an imposing aura. Under the moonlight, her crystal skin is as dazzling as jade, her eyes are bright, and she is extremely beautiful. The other is charming and seductive, with skin as white as snow, like an innocent girl, like an elf from the deepest darkness, and like a rose with thorns, her beauty is not that of an ordinary person.

Then, his eyes could not help but meet hers. He felt that the girl's eyes seemed to contain thousands of words, which she wanted to say but could not. "Are you Xu Ziling?"

The voice was clear and pleasant, like the sound of heaven, making Xu Ziling unconsciously indulge in it, with endless aftertaste. However, the next moment he was shocked, his mind was clear, and he stared at the girl opposite him as if he was looking at a flood or a beast, "Xu Ziling, who are you?"

Xu Ziling's reaction was beyond Wanwan's expectations. Was Tian Mo Yin's attack going to fail?

The moment they met, the invisible confrontation had already begun. As for greeting each other in advance, the people of the Demon Sect had no such habit at all.

At this moment, Zhu Yuyan's attention was not on Xu Ziling at all. Her eyes were fixed on Su Ming beside him. Her hands, hidden in her palace skirt, were secretly circulating her internal energy. She was concentrating and on guard, her body tense as if facing a powerful enemy.

The person in front of her gave her great pressure. This feeling was like facing Shi Zhixuan, who once created the Immortal Seal. She couldn't help but secretly groan. When did such a master appear in the world?
"It's rude not to reciprocate, girl, you should take my move too!"

Xu Ziling put his two fingers together and drew his sword, and a sharp sword energy pierced through the air and hit Wanwan directly. However, when the sword energy reached where she was standing, it seemed to be swallowed up by a bottomless pit and disappeared completely in an instant.

What kind of martial arts is this?
Seeing that the sword energy he had released had been completely absorbed, Xu Ziling did not dare to be careless. He stretched out his palm and grabbed, and the sword in the room was pulled out of the window and fell into his hand.

"Oh..., Mr. Xu, Wanwan is rude!" With a graceful and heartbreaking sigh, her delicate body, with an unparalleled sucking force, "pulled" Xu Ziling's invisible yet tangible sword energy, and floated over from the roof.

How could Xu Ziling dare to let her succeed so easily? He took a step forward with a serious expression, "Break through the air and fly away, the truth is profound!" He started with the Piaomiao sword technique, and when her figure was in the air, the sharp sword energy gushed out.

"ah!"

Wanwan cried out in disbelief at Xu Ziling's cruel act, and her weak and resentful look made Xu Ziling's heart tremble and his scalp tingle. He lost his will to fight and his offensive inevitably weakened a little. When he reacted, he couldn't help but secretly exclaimed that something was wrong.

From Wanwan's elegant white skirt, two snow-white, soft ribbons suddenly emerged from her sleeves. They ignored the sword energy they were facing and moved in a graceful arc, one hitting his vest and the other hitting the back of his head.

Although the ribbon was extremely gentle and effortless when it broke through the air, like a beautiful dance, it was actually soft yet strong and powerful. Xu Ziling once again felt his hair stand on end and a sense of crisis loomed in his heart. The opponent before him was more difficult to deal with than any other opponent he had ever encountered.

He knew clearly that if he was hit by the ribbons, he would be seriously injured if not killed. In comparison, Du Fuwei's hidden secrets were more like a joke. Xu Ziling did not hesitate to duck and spun around, avoiding the two ribbons. The sword energy was already approaching the delicate body half a meter away.

Wanwan also noticed the sharpness of Xu Ziling's sword energy. Her beautiful eyes slightly frowned and her wrist trembled. The front ends of the two ribbons that were originally flying in the air above Xu Ziling suddenly collided, causing the ribbons to shrink back like waves. At the same time, the middle part of the ribbon sank rapidly like a falling rock, and arrived later, just blocking the sword energy.

The sword energy and the silk ribbon came into contact, but the expected sound of the collision of energy did not occur. Xu Ziling's eyes suddenly widened. He only felt that his sword energy was like a stone sinking into the sea, never to return, which was very strange.
