Unparalleled Evildoer

Chapter 156 Two Groups Meet at the River

Hearing this, Yang Yingjie smiled and said, "Brother Wuzhan's words are becoming more and more incomprehensible. I only write for pretty ladies, so how can I care about idiots? Are you investigating me?"

Wuzhan smiled and said, "I am just curious, how could the 'romantic talent' who has always been free and easy associate with ministers in the court and care about worldly disputes? Since Brother Yang is unwilling to disclose it, he must have no choice. How can I waste my time investigating Brother Yang?"

Yang Yingjie glanced around the hall and saw that the other tea drinkers were far away. He whispered to Wuzhan, "I advise you to turn a blind eye. If you delve too deeply into it, you will only get yourself into trouble!"

Wuzhan smiled and said, "I would like to do so, but if I cannot devote myself to this position, how can I live up to your majesty's high expectations!"

"I really don't understand you. With your body like this, isn't it good for you to enjoy the beauty of life? Why do you have to scheme against each other in this court all day long?"

"I am also very confused. Why doesn't a hermit like Brother Yang cultivate himself and gain enlightenment in a paradise, and live a carefree life, but instead comes to this place to stir up trouble? Does he also want to establish the Eternal Qin for Your Majesty like the Xiandao Academy?"

"How can we do the same as them and do those illusory things? They are just trying to gain their own benefits. Once they get what they want, they will definitely leave."

"From Brother Yang's tone, you must be confident in overthrowing the Xiandao Academy?"

Yang Yingjie paused for a moment while looking at Wuzhe, raised his eyebrows and smiled, "I am telling you this because I care about you, but if you want to get any information from me, I advise you to give up this idea!"

Wuzhan smiled and said, "I don't think it's because I, the Imperial Censor, am exhausted. It's because Brother Yang is too sensitive. He rejected me before I even asked!"

Yang Yingjie said: "It's up to you what you think. It seems that Miss Yu will not come out to play the piano tonight. It's boring to stay here. I will not accompany you to investigate the case. I'm going to drink some wine!" Without waiting for Wuzhan to answer, his figure disappeared like a gust of wind.

After Yang Yingjie left, Zhang Liang and others walked out of the private room and sat down next to Wuzhan. Zhang Liang laughed softly and said, "I didn't expect that there would be problems inside Qin. It seems that staying in Xianyang City will be a good show to watch. I wonder which side Brother Li hopes will win?"

"The outcome of this struggle will determine the direction of the Qin State. The old ministers in the court have now burned their boats and are risking everything. The outcome is indeed unpredictable. If the Xiandao Academy is eliminated, the construction of the Lishan Fairy Palace is stopped, and the labor service is dismissed, the people of the world will be free from suffering, and the destiny of the Qin State will continue. If the Xiandao Academy wins, then in the future, no one will dare to advise Ying Zheng. The Xiandao Academy will unscrupulously plunder the people's wealth, engage in large-scale construction projects, and the people will suffer from deep resentment. The demise of the Qin State will not be far away, but the world will be in chaos again, and the people will suffer from war again. Which ending does Brother Zhang want?" Wuzhan asked back.

Zhang Liang thought and lamented, "Ying Zheng is cruel and merciless, arbitrary and tyrannical, and he only wants to be immortal. Even if we eliminate that group of rabble, his nature will not change at all, and the people will never be free from suffering. It is better to suffer a short pain than a long one. I hope they fight to the point of mutual destruction, and the government will be in chaos, and no one will speak out. This will be more beneficial for us to restore our country!"

Wuzhan smiled and said, "So, Brother Zhang hopes that the mob will win?"

Zhang Liang sighed, "Of course I hope that the Qin State will fall as soon as possible, but this time we can only be bystanders."

"That may not be the case. On one side is an old minister with outstanding achievements, and on the other side is a cultivator with high hopes. The strength of the two sides is evenly matched, and they are at loggerheads. The final decision-making power should be in the hands of Ying Zheng. How he chooses to quell this civil strife, the opinions of a third party may be very important."

Zhang Liang was delighted when he heard this and said, "So, Brother Li can have a say!"

"If I am given the chance, I will not miss it, but I am afraid they will find that they cannot win me over and choose to get rid of me."

Zhang Liang asked, "Brother Li, do you mean that they will come to assassinate you?"

Wuzhan laughed and said, "They even gambled their lives, so my life is naturally included!"

……

The night sky was lonely, the moonlight was bright, and a cool breeze blew slowly over the Wei River. The water surface was glittering with silver light. A dark shadow suddenly emerged from the woods and looked around, wanting to use his Qinggong to cross the Wei River. At this moment, a subtle "swoosh" sound of breaking through the air came rapidly from behind. The dark shadow heard the sound, leaped up, and suddenly turned in the air, avoiding the invisible hidden weapon, and landed steadily on the water surface by the river without stirring up any waves. "Hehe, after following me for so long, I finally come out!"

As soon as he finished speaking, another dark figure slowly emerged from the forest, took off his mask, and laughed, "Why stay? After we parted at Changyang Mountain, how did this 'Thousand Miles Chasing Souls' become 'Thousand Miles Dead Souls'?"

"Hehe, your invisible needle is just so-so. It's OK for assassinating those people with no cultivation, but if you want to kill me, why bother to spare me? You're far from it. 'Smiling Death' is just a false reputation."

Xiao Jinghong stood with his hands behind his back, smiling slightly, "You are still so optimistic even when death is imminent. I wonder how long you can survive today!"

"Hehe, I haven't seen you for a few days. You have improved a lot in bragging. You are not afraid of the strong wind and your tongue getting bitten!"

"You come and try it!" As he said that, his figure flashed and suddenly appeared in front of He Biliu. He waved his long sleeves, and with a "swish" sound, several cyclones shot out.

Although He Biliu could not see the poison needles clearly, he could feel the sound of breaking through the air. A pair of deadly hooks appeared at the same time, flying up and down, making clanging sounds, sparks flying, and several invisible needles were all blocked.

Before Xiao Jinghong could attack again, He Biliu turned around, splashed water on the water, and rushed in front of Xiao Jinghong. The deadly hook emitted a black light and went straight to his heart.

Xiao Jinghong leaned to the right and swung his right hand at the same time, shooting the shadowless needle at He Biliu. He Biliu was prepared, and his body suddenly turned sharply, and the deadly hook in his left hand spun, and the shadowless needle was either barely dodged or intercepted, while the deadly hook in his right hand changed from stabbing to horizontal stabbing, and his movements were agile. Xiao Jinghong had never fought with He Biliu before, and he didn't expect He Biliu to be so fast. He hurriedly dodged backwards, and the strong wind immediately cut an inch long gash on his chest.

"Hehehe, your shadowless needle is just like a woman's embroidery needle in front of me, it can only be used to mend clothes!" The deadly hook was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, sticking closely to Xiao Jinghong. Several black lights covered him, forcing Xiao Jinghong to dodge and avoid for a while, making it difficult for him to condense a needle to fight back.

Seeing that he was at a disadvantage, Xiao Jinghong turned his palm into a blade in desperation. A half-foot long black gas suddenly emerged from his palm and chopped towards He Biliu's throat.

He Biliu knew that Xiao Jinghong's hands were full of poison. If he was scratched, he would be poisoned. He quickly turned over and jumped sideways a few feet away. Before his toes touched the ground, dozens of invisible needles shot through the air. He Biliu did not stop, and jumped high again. A black light appeared, blocking the invisible needles and fell onto the water.

Xiao Jinghong did not continue to attack, and said coldly: "You are just like this, how dare you speak so arrogantly!"

He Biliu laughed and said, "You, the leader of Tiansha Pavilion, are really mediocre. You must have come to Xianyang because you couldn't make it. Why didn't you tell me earlier? I can introduce you to our Xiandao Academy to serve tea and water. It's better than you working for others like this!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Jinghong snorted coldly, "You Xiandao Academy are just a bunch of rabble who deceived Ying Zheng. You will be wiped out soon, but you won't see them from now on!"

"With just your little tricks, you think you can fight against Xiandao Academy? Hehe, you are still far from it!"

"As soon as you die, the blame will be placed on Xiandaoyuan again. Haha, you can't escape today!" Before he finished speaking, He Bilu was surrounded by the other three.

One of them was dressed in black, with a well-proportioned figure, a mask on his head, bright eyes, and an iron fan in his hand, with an extraordinary bearing. Another was dressed in a fluttering black robe, a hood covering his face, a pale jaw, a sinister aura, and a ghostly appearance. The third was a woman dressed in red, with a voluptuous figure, almond eyes and rosy cheeks, and was enchanting and seductive.

Why bother to keep an eye on the surroundings, not panicking, sneering: "She was able to disguise herself as me and the old camel to deceive this servant, so this girl must be Hua Qingyue, the Thousand-Change Demon Girl!"

The red-dressed lady was dressed in gorgeous clothes and giggled, "You guessed right, it's me!"

He Biliu said: "I never thought that you evil people would be able to collude with each other!"

Hua Qingyue smiled and said, "It's the same for you. If you know what's good for you, just end it yourself, so as not to dirty my hands."

"You think you can kill me with those evil techniques of yours? Dream on!" After saying that, he flashed and tried to rush out.

The man waving the iron fan said loudly: "Let me meet him!" As he spoke, his figure had already blocked in front of He Biliu, and the iron fan was swung with a "swish", drawing a silver light, which slashed towards He Biliu's chest.

He Biliu swung his hook to block. With a clang, sparks flew and Qi spurted out. He felt a sharp pain in his arm and the hook nearly slipped out of his hand. Just as he was surprised, the iron fan hummed and a white light shot out from the edge of the fan, directly hitting He Biliu's brow. It was so close and fast as lightning. Seeing this, He Biliu quickly dodged to the side. A strand of his flying hair was immediately cut off. He staggered to avoid it and fell back to his original position. He Biliu was proud of his physical skills and few people in the world could be faster than him. However, he did not expect that the playboy in front of him was not inferior to him. "Hehe, I didn't expect that you, a playboy, have some skills!"

Yang Yingjie took off his mask, revealing his handsome face, and smiled slightly, "For what you said, I will make you die with dignity."

He Biliu laughed and said, "I guessed that you would come to assassinate me. Hehe, but there seem to be too few people coming!" As soon as he finished speaking, three blue cold lights swept over from the water surface, as fast as meteors, and hit the three people in front of He Biliu respectively.

The three of them knew the power of the 'Northern Dark Fire' and did not dare to be negligent. They flew out and spread out. 'Bang bang bang' the blue light hit the rocks, broken ice flew everywhere, and the cold air hit their faces.

He Biliu took the opportunity to jump out of the encirclement and landed on the water. He sneered and said, "Let's see who can leave alive tonight!"

In a moment, Jiang Yuan, Qingyang and a dozen others arrived in front of Xiao Jinghong. Jiang Yuan laughed at the man in the black robe and said, "I guess you must be the 'White-faced Impermanence' Fen Yuan!"

Upon hearing this, Fen Yuan revealed his dark eyes and chuckled, "I never thought that after so many years, someone would still remember my name!"

"If it's not you, Senior, who else in the world can control hundreds of ghosts with a golden flute? I just don't understand when our Xiandao Academy has ever offended you, Senior. Why did you rob the tribute and put the blame on our Xiandao Academy?"

"Take people's money and help them eliminate disasters!"

Jiang Yuan smiled and said, "Senior, if you need anything, just ask us. We in the Immortal Dao Academy can do it. Why should we condescend to those secular people and accept their orders?"

"Will you give the Hunyuan Yuxu Furnace to me?"

Jiang Yuan's face darkened when he heard this, and he said in a cold voice: "It seems that Senior is determined to fight us to the end!"

"Since so many of you have come tonight, I have no choice but to get rid of you all at once so that I can replace you with a group of capable corpse ghosts!" The golden flute spun in his hand, and the black air around it spread outward like ink.
