Chapter 137: Chi Xiao roars loudly, mortal enemies meet

Chi Xiao’s sword rang loudly.

It was like a dragon emerging from the abyss, echoing in all directions. The expressions on the faces of everyone in the Hall of Supreme Harmony were frozen. The faces of many teachers in the academy showed astonishment, surprise, and a hint of panic.

The guards all looked solemn. The chief eunuch strode over and said fiercely:
"You, who are you?"

"Do you still need me to teach you the principles of loyalty to the emperor and patriotism? Masters, why did you trespass into the forbidden palace? Are you planning a rebellion?"

"Is it possible that this academy, which has assisted Your Majesty for eight hundred years, is going to rebel?"

boom! ! !
A huge gust of wind surged up.

The head eunuch, whose cultivation was not bad, saw a blur in front of his eyes, and an old man with messy white hair appeared in front of him. For a moment, he felt his body was insignificant. The old man was infinitely taller, with cold and arrogant eyes, and his dark blue robe was fluttering. His domineering aura was frightening.

The face of this rather old eunuch turned pale instantly.

His instinct was to retreat.

The next moment, Si Wei had already grabbed his throat, lifted him up, and said calmly:

"Inverted."

"how?"

The whole room was filled with fear and speechlessness.

The eunuch's face instantly lost all color, and his legs and feet became weak.

Si Wei was indifferent, he just threw the eunuch to the ground and said directly:

"If you can't do it, don't say it."

"Just a barking dog."

"Your master is already in trouble, and you don't know how to keep a low profile for him, and you are making enemies here. What a fool you are!"

The eunuch vomited blood from his mouth and his mind was filled with fear.

The old man walked over his body and stood in the center of the Hall of Supreme Harmony. Behind the spacious hall, the guards raised their weapons, but looking at the old man with white hair tied up and an ordinary robe, they did not dare to move forward.

Only the eunuch was smashed to the ground.

Si Wei stood in front of the blocked Chixiao Sword with sadness in his eyes.

He reached out his hand and stroked the sword that was sealed by countless red talismans and red ropes. He thought about how the Red Emperor conquered the world three times when he was young. The great emperor back then had passed away, but his weapon was locked here because of the fear of future generations. Si Wei looked sad and murmured:
"Chi Xiao..."

"The divine weapon held by the Red Emperor is decorated with seven-colored pearls and nine-flower jade. The blade is always like frost and snow, shining brightly. It is probably the Broken Snake mentioned in the Guangya. It is the divine weapon that fought against the Overlord's halberd for the world eight hundred years ago."

"Red Emperor!"

He reached out his hands and grasped the red strings with talismans hidden inside, then raised his head and shouted:
"Your descendants are not good enough!"

"He used the rope of the alchemist to lock the sword you used to fight for the world here."

His voice was full of grief and ridicule:

"And in today's world, such a person is also the emperor!"

"Such a child!"

"He's the emperor too!"

All the teachers, imperial guards, and eunuchs turned pale.

Then they saw the madman stretching out his hand, ignoring the clear marks left on his palm by the glowing rope, he continued to exert force, and all the red ropes were shattered. He did not care about anything else and tore all the ropes apart!

A chariot with feather decorations on the war horses' head armor appeared, and the emperor appeared at the palace gate. He was breathing heavily and his expression was frozen.

Copper coins from the ancient emperor era fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.

The other teachers all saluted, and the guards half-knelt on the ground, pressing their palms on the armor on their chests. The eunuch who had taken care of the emperor since he was a child stretched out his hand, with blood in his mouth, and said: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty..."

"save……"

He was speechless as a foot came down on his back, crushing him to the ground.

Si Wei turned around, his sleeves rolled up, holding the Chixiao sword that was whistling in his right hand, and stood looking at the emperor. Then he raised the weapon and pointed the hilt at the emperor, saying in a calm tone: "Emperor, the Chixiao sword is whistling, not for you."

"Did you know?!"

The great emperor of Zhongzhou, at least the nominal ruler of the world for now, stared at the sword in front of him and the madman who could actually lift this sword. He took a half step forward and then clasped a jade bead tied on his wrist with his fingers.

The jade bead emitted an imperceptible stream of light, and then an aura gathered around the emperor, transforming into a red dragon. The dragon's scales were clearly visible. The dragon raised its head and stared at Si Wei over there.

The emperor said, "But, Master, isn't it because of the enemy's appearance that the sword whistles?"

“The sound was fierce, like the roar of a dragon, like war horses shaking in unison, and swords unsheathed.”

“It’s not the majestic voice of an emperor.”

Si Wei narrowed his eyes and looked at the person in front of him.

At this moment, the whistling of the Scarlet Sky Sword suddenly stopped, as if the existence that had previously attracted it had disappeared, just like an army going out to battle but failing to find its target. Si Wei lowered his eyes slightly, looked at the emperor who was showing the form of a red dragon in front of him, and threw the sword backhanded.

The divine weapon Chi Xiao fell back on the shelf.

"Then this sword doesn't scream for you either."

he said.

The expression on the emperor's face was frozen, but he still maintained his majesty.

The old man strode out with his sleeves rolled up. In front of him were the Zhongzhou Yulin Army, which was composed of the world's elite warriors wearing armor. They could not help but retreat backwards. The emperor smiled, and the fingers under his sleeves almost pierced into his palm.

After hearing the news, the emperor was extremely angry and smashed many ancient artifacts.

But Si Wei didn't even look at him, he just said:

"Tell those six people in the academy. No, tell the academy and the world."

"I'm back!"

........................

Pojun stopped the carriage. The horses that came from the northernmost grassland and had the blood of ancient exotic beasts were already panting with exhaustion and spitting bloody saliva from their mouths. Pojun raised his head and saw the light of the Seven Stars of the White Tiger light up.

Then, suddenly a light came on.

The lights seemed to be blocked, and the roar of the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd was subsided.

Po Jun was stunned. He turned around and saw the kind old man smiling, "The world is too chaotic right now... If there is more attention, it will not be a good thing for him."

A smile appeared on Pojun's face, and then he said yes.

He looked at the old man in front of him with fear in his eyes.

From the very beginning, the old man was waiting at the gate of the Taoist temple, and then Po Jun caught him and put him on the carriage, and said that if they left the city, they could be out of danger, including the bronze lamp.

The old man seemed to do nothing with any intention of doing anything.

The final result was that Situ Deqing, the tenth best assassin in the world, sacrificed his own life to allow Li Guanyi to pour out the evil spirit in his body, successfully mastering one of the Overlord's unique moves and truly turning danger into safety.

The tenth killer, who had murderous intentions towards Li Guanyi and Zu Wenyuan, died under the [Overlord's Move].

Everything seemed to be within the old man's calculations.

Po Jun had a complicated expression and exclaimed: "Senior...this method of calculating the temple is really amazing."

Zu Wenyuan looked at the young man and said, "Do you want to learn?"

Pojun's face froze and he started coughing violently.

"You can. You don't have to say it so directly."

"Oh, then you don't want to learn."

Po Jun opened his mouth and said, "I want to!"

Zu Wenyuan said softly: "During this period of time, you can come to the Taoist temple to find me. My skills should not be buried here. Guanyi is a good boy, but his path is different from mine. It's not that he is not talented enough, nor that I am stingy with my methods."

"But how can a tiger learn to fly like a crane?"

"He should gallop across the battlefield and the world."

Pojun pursed his lips and looked at Li Guanyi. Li Guanyi moved his wrist and raised the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd. Even after eight hundred years, this magical weapon was still as sharp and hard as when it was newly cast.

With the help of Qilin's true energy, even the body of the world's tenth killer could not stop it. The flesh, bones, and trachea of ​​the neck were cut open in one go.

In just a short period of time, Situ Deqing's blood had almost dried up, and a large area of ​​land was soaked. Insects licked his blood, and then their bodies swelled visibly and exploded.

The blood of a martial artist of high level cannot be borne by an ordinary flesh and blood body.

And the magic weapon whistled softly in the wind.

The Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd awakened, but it was not known whether it was because of the blood it drank or because of the young man holding the weapon. Li Guanyi exhaled and adjusted his breathing. He stuck the weapon in his hand into the ground, recalling his previous experience and feeling a little scared.

If the ancestor had not brought him out, he might have been immersed in the evil spirit and hatred of the overlord, killing and fighting at will in Jiangzhou City. It was the final fight with Situ Deqing that made Li Guanyi completely sober.

The five Dharma images beside him were all brighter than before, as if incubating some kind of transformation, and the white tiger had already completed the transformation, the murderous intent in its golden eyes was gone, revealing a grand and upright aura.

After all, it is the Dharma image of the tenth killer in the world. After swallowing it, it can be said to be a great tonic.

Li Guan thought about it and felt that he should apologize to Situ Deqing.

A killer, holding a rapier.

He dared to stand in front of the angry and murderous spirit that was unleashed by the Dominant Style of the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd.

There were no such brave killers eight hundred years ago.

Worthy of being ranked tenth in the world!
If Chidi saw this, given his personality, he would definitely praise it loudly.

Awesome!
Li Guanyi sighed, then bent down, not caring that Situ Deqing's neck was almost cut off and his whole body was broken into three sections, and he went straight to attack.

Touch the corpse!

Start the happy corpse-touching!

It seemed that Situ Deqing came here to hunt down the ancestor after coming out of the palace.

Li Guanyi took out a sachet, which contained rouge for the woman, some gold and silver items, and two pills. There were not many things in it, so Li Guanyi thought about it, put these things down, and imitated what Brother Yue had demonstrated the first time.

I checked the inside of the clothes, the collar, and the soles of the shoes.

There was actually a large silver note hidden in the sole of the shoe.

The boy used two twigs as chopsticks to pick it out and put it aside to disperse the smell.

Then he took out something that looked like a token from the dark side of his collar. Li Guanyi frowned. He took the token and weighed it in his hand. It was quite heavy, like gold, but there was an indescribable sense of mystery.

There is a word written in large seal script on the front.

【ten】

Behind him was a strange figure wearing a dark gold mask with "Situ Deqing" written below it.

"This is the badge of the tenth-ranking assassin in the world."

Zu Wenyuan's voice came over. Pojun supported the old man. The old man looked gentle. Situ Deqingye, who was chopped into three pieces, did not change the expression of the gentle old man. He just said:

"Assassins and killers all over the world have 'masks' to conceal their identities."

"The killer is someone who lurks in the shadows. What's more, the Netherworld Ghost Market also has the world's best disguise master who can erase all traces and let you leave the world and start over. So the Ghost Market doesn't recognize faces, they recognize tokens."

"Situ Deqing, maybe that's a fake name."

"It's a pseudonym that has been circulated for who knows how many times. Si Qing is only the Situ Deqing of this generation, or the past few years. He is dead. You have his badge and this dark gold mask, so you can be Situ Deqing."

The identity of the tenth best killer in the world.

Li Guanyi's eyes flickered slightly.

The old man said, "However, I wonder if someone like Situ Deqing would leave some gold and silver treasures for me in the Netherworld Ghost Market. If Guan Yi is interested, he can go to the headquarters of the Netherworld Ghost Market and visit the Tianditong Bank someday if he has the chance."

"it is good……"

Li Guanyi was keenly aware of the role of this identity.

It can only be said that no matter what, Situ Deqing is a top character. If it weren't for the Overlord's Secret Style, the murderous aura of the war spear, and the power given by Qilin, Li Guanyi would not be able to kill this guy. However, this time the trump card that Qilin gave to Li Guanyi to save his life was consumed.

It really saves lives.

Pojun directly collected Situ Deqing's body and put it under the car.

"Please bear with me, the corpse of the tenth-most murderous person in the world."

"What a good thing this is. It's enough to turn the situation around."

Then he cleaned up the traces of the carriage left here and drove away quickly.

As for the bloodstains?
There was much fighting outside the city, and the officials and the people were no longer surprised.

Li Guanyi touched the dark gold mask in his hand.

This item is a part of the divine armor worn by Chen Guogong, the ancestor of Chen State, five hundred years ago. The ancestor explained: "He was a divine general back then, so Chen Guogong wore this dark gold armor and fought bravely on the battlefield. Later, Chen State achieved the achievements of an emperor, which was about two or three hundred years ago."

"At that time, Emperor Wu of Chen believed that the emperor was an upright and magnanimous person."

"It shouldn't cover its face. This dark gold visor is no longer the emperor's armor, but is displayed in the palace treasury. In the present era... At that time, the eldest princess Chen Qingyan was still young, the young master of the Huguo Villa, and she was sending an item to the academy."

"Later, for some reason, the news leaked out. At that time, Chen Chengbi and I were not that old. He found me and asked me to figure out what happened. We went to find her. At that time, she was ambushed and injured. After killing those pursuers, she collapsed due to exhaustion."

"It was picked up by a young man who called himself a knight-errant."

"The young man was only in his teens at the time. He was naturally strong. He beat up a few thugs in his hometown and called himself a knight. He wore a metal sword on his waist and mowed grass every day. There was no grass within a ten-mile radius. Later, we found the boy."

"Chen Chengbi liked him and wanted him to join the Huguo Villa. The princess personally wrote a letter of recommendation for him. But who would have thought that halfway through his journey, he heard that a war had broken out in the southwest and the people were displaced. So he distributed the gold that the princess had given him to the refugees and then joined the army."

"Later, the young man experienced life and death, gained fame, pacified the southwest and the western regions, and fought against the world's number one general. He was first granted the title of Duke, and then when the current emperor ascended the throne, he was granted the title of King of a Different Surname. However, he died three years after being granted the title of King."

"When he became the general, the princess offered to give him the mask."

"The emperor agreed, so the dark gold mask became the general's iconic item. He once swept through the southwest wearing the mask. When the Turkic cavalry saw that the leading general was wearing black armor and a dark gold mask, they all fled and surrendered without a fight."

Po Jun thought for a moment: "...that person is."

Li Guan stroked his visor with one finger and said:

"Prince Taiping."

He covered his face with a visor, leaving only his eyes exposed.

Her black hair is slightly raised.

Po Jun looked back and saw the young man. He said softly:

"It really is exactly like the picture..."

"If you were to appear in front of the world in this outfit, wearing a visor and riding a unicorn, I really don't dare to think about it. I don't know if the old subordinates of the Duke of Taiping would have much reaction, but those true comrades who once fought side by side with him would definitely cry bitterly."

"For example..."

"Shuai Yue."

Li Guanyi closed his eyes and did not answer.

He returned to the Xue family without saying where he had been. This time, the Tiger Roaring Sky Halberd was placed in his yard. Its brilliance had been retracted, and the blade was no longer as frosty and intimidating as before.

"Just leave it here with you. This halberd has already recognized its master. It will be unhappy if I take it away."

"As for the Seventh King, I am naturally prepared."

“You can rest assured.”

Pojun left happily, and Li Guanyi also returned to the palace. Si Qing's disappearance caused some ripples among some people, but he was just an insignificant official after all, and people soon stopped caring about it. There were too many people in the palace, so many that they were not worthy of being considered human beings.

Li Guanyi just flipped through classics, read books, and sorted out files every day.

One day when he was on duty, he suddenly heard the noise of shouting and cheering coming from the palace guards. Ye Buyi said, "That person must be back."

Zhou Liuying also nodded.

Li Guanyi: "That person?"

His body paused slightly, because at this moment, he suddenly felt an instinctive anger, an anger of discovering someone stole his things and a cold murderous intent. His blood was boiling. Li Guan looked and saw a man walking out and someone laughing.

"I'm finally back!"

"Chen Yuyun!"
