Xuanxia

Chapter 991: Prison Break, Game (Part )
"To deal with a Cave Heaven Realm master, of course a Cave Heaven Realm master is also needed."

Yue Heng pondered and murmured, "There are no experts in the patrol camp. The imperial guards once learned military tactics under the leadership of Hong Zhi, and they can fight against the cave masters to a certain extent, but... when Jiang Baichuan of Luoyi killed a group of imperial guards, and when the capital was in turmoil, the group of people who belonged to Hong Zhi's confidants were surrounded and killed. Now, there are not many people who know military tactics left in the imperial guards in the capital, right?"

"Let go of your thoughts."

Yan Yidong leaned back in his chair, closed his eyes, and said leisurely: "Put on the armor of the Imperial Guards, isn't it the Imperial Guards? Similarly, the armor of the Patrol Battalion is not difficult to get, can't we just put it on?"

Yue Heng's pupils shrank. "Are you saying that there will be ghost cultivators from the Xishuo Army coming?"

"This is natural. They want to do something big and are short of people. Why wouldn't they extradite some ghost cultivators to Beijing in advance?"

Yan Yidong did not open his eyes and responded: "If we don't push the several cave masters of Xuanmeng to their limits, what will we do if Master Baihe does not take action when the important figures from their side come?"

"Speaking of this..."

Yue Heng's expression became a little strange: "Since a few days ago, you have determined that they will find a way to force Baihe Zhenren to take action. Why is that? Once the battle between Xuanxing masters begins, the entire capital will fall into chaos... Is it necessary to make such a fuss just to save a few insignificant prisoners?"

"Rescue?"

Yan Yidong opened his eyes and sneered, "They are not trying to save people! They... want to force Ning Baimei to their side!"

"This is the most dangerous move at the moment, but if it succeeds, we will have no chance at all!"

Upon hearing this, Yue Heng's brows immediately furrowed tightly.

Seeing him like this, Yan Yidong smiled and said, "Kid, if it were you, how would you play the next chess move?"

……

"Who are you!"

Shangguan Xuan and others, who had just stopped a group of soldiers, had no time to say anything before they suddenly saw a large group of people rushing out from the enemy's army!
Although these people were also wearing armor of the patrol camp and the imperial guards, their aura and body movements were obviously different. As soon as they appeared, they were surrounded by a spooky aura and a howling wind!
"It's a ghost cultivator!"

Shangguan Xuan's pupils shrank, and he said sternly: "Fellow Daoists, stop them!"

As soon as they finished speaking, they immediately flew towards the ghost cultivators. The ghost cultivators also surrounded them in layers. Among them, one could even see some masters with cultivation levels in the seventh or even eighth realm. In addition, they were surrounded by soldiers from the patrol camp and the imperial guards. A group of Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses immediately fell into a tough battle.

"Hehehe..."

The general of the Imperial Guard sneered and said, "The people of the Xuanmeng claim to be righteous, but today they are bragging about the taboos of the world and causing trouble in the capital!"

He shouted loudly: "The people of the Xuanmeng besieged the secret envoy of Mingjian Pavilion in the capital, tried to hijack Youyu, and fought with the patrol camp and the imperial guards. They are tantamount to treason and must be punished by the whole world!"

"fart!"

A secret envoy from Mingjian Pavilion shouted, "It's these men in black who are here to rob the prison! Xuanmeng is here to help us!"

"Ha ha ha ha--"

This time, it was the general from the patrol camp who laughed: "Brothers from Mingjian Pavilion, you have been deceived! You will know later that we are helping you! Hold on a little longer, don't get killed by them, they have many experts who are trying to stop us, waiting for us to rescue you!"

The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit, this is an eternal truth. As long as you win, you can say whatever you want.

The same applies to Mingjian Pavilion and Xuanmeng. As long as they win, they will be righteous today and the blame will never be put on them.

But it was obvious that, at least for the moment, they were the suppressed party...

……

"what happened?"

Not far away, on top of a tall tower, a young Taoist nun frowned and asked, "There are far more people in Mingjian Pavilion than these, why don't you come to help?"

She had only one arm, and the sleeve of her right arm was empty and fluttering in the wind.

"Si Yu... you will take over Ziqi Xianfeng Temple in the future. When you look at a problem, you must see the essence of it."

Beside the young Taoist nun Si Yu, a distant and ethereal female voice came: "I'll give you three chances. Tell me, why didn't Mingjian Pavilion come to help?"

"Master!" Si Yu bowed quickly when he saw the person coming.

Master Baihe had appeared beside her without her knowing.

"Could it be that there is a problem inside Mingjian Pavilion?" Si Yu asked doubtfully.

Baihe Zhenren shook his head: "Three years ago, when the capital was in turmoil, Dong Qianran helped Li Jingzhe get rid of all the secret envoys from the aristocratic families... Later, Ling Jiao joined Mingjian Pavilion and cleaned up another wave. Although the number of secret envoys now is far less than before, there will definitely be no traitors anymore."

Si Yu was startled, then asked, "Could it be that the noble family has found a way to contain Li Jingzhe, so they can't send out troops?"

"Hold Li Jingzhe?"

Baihe Zhenren laughed and shook his head: "He is not a person who will be restrained. Apart from Ning Baimei, no one in the world can make him willingly listen to instructions and announcements. With such a big thing happening, how could he not come?"

Si Yu sighed: "Master, please stop asking riddles. I'm not Senior Sister Qiuchan, I'm not that smart..."

When mentioning Qiu Chan, a hint of sadness flashed in Master Baihe's eyes.

But she quickly recovered and said softly, "There is only one answer. Someone single-handedly stopped all the secret envoys of Mingjian Pavilion and prevented them from sending troops."

"what?!"

Si Yu was shocked: "Who can have this ability? Even a Xuanxing strongman can..."

"He must be very strong, and more importantly, his identity." Master Baihe sighed softly: "There is only one person who meets this condition."

……

"Young Master... please move aside."

In the Mingjian Pavilion, Li Jingzhe had a sullen face, held his sword horizontally, and gritted his teeth as he said, "I don't want to draw my sword against you!"

Behind him, all the secret agents held their swords horizontally, looking at the person in front of them nervously.

There was a man standing in front of the closed door of Mingjian Pavilion.

He was dressed in a scholar's gown, had an elegant temperament and a faint smile on his face.

It is better to be free from delusion.

Li Jingzhe had more than two hundred secret envoys behind him, which was almost all the force in the capital city now. But at this moment, none of them dared to step forward.

Li Jingzhe even only dared to hold the knife horizontally and did not dare to point it at Ning Wuwang!
"Uncle Jingzhe, I haven't called you that for a long time."

Ning Wuwang smiled, but his eyes did not stay on Li Jingzhe. Instead, he looked around Mingjian Pavilion: "I haven't been back for a long time... The original location of Paishulou has been changed by you. Where are my former subordinates? Where did they go?"

"There are too many of your people in the Bookstore. No one dares to use them anymore."

Li Jingzhe said with a sullen face: "Some people have been investigated and confirmed to have clean backgrounds, and have gone to local places to serve as officials... But there are still many more people who no one dares to use and have nowhere to go. The martial arts world is all owned by the Xuanmeng, and they will not accept them."

"Later, only the Second Young Lady was willing to take them in. Some of them joined the rebel army, but some others, disappointed after those days, joined the Xishuo Army and became your men."

"Many people have died in the war."

"My Lord, is this the answer you want?"

After hearing this, Ning Wuwang kept smiling and just shook his head slightly.

"It doesn't matter. I left them a letter before I left, asking them to come to me as soon as possible, but it seems that not many people made this choice."

He said softly: "In this case, there is no need for me to miss them."

As he spoke, he slowly took out a folding fan from his sleeve and opened it with a snap: "Uncle Jingzhe, I want to read a book here. You guys stay here with me and don't go anywhere, okay?"
