The evil forces roaming the heavens

Chapter 1677 The Ming Dynasty may perish, but China cannot!

In the grove where a gentle breeze was blowing,

Looking at the young man before her, Jiu Nan said softly, "Get up. There is no princess here anymore, only the nun Jiu Nan!"

"Yes, princess!"

Standing up, Zhang Cheng's tall and straight figure was like a sharp sword.
"Are you a member of the Heaven and Earth Society?"

Looking at Wei Xiaobao beside her, Jiu Nan immediately asked,
“It’s the real deal, Abbess, I am the head of the Qingmu Hall!”

Holding up the token, Wei Xiaobao's face was filled with fear.
Because Zhang Cheng was staring at him intently from the side.

"Snapped!"

Zhang Cheng slapped Wei Xiaobao across the face with his backhand and stared at him, saying, "What's your name? Huh? What's your name?"

"Princess!"

Covering his face with a pitiful expression, Wei Xiaobao looked at Jiu Nan and immediately broke down.
"Goodbye, I'm no longer a princess!"

Rejecting Wei Xiaobao's address, Jiu Nan's face was full of sighs.

"Big brother, please don't hit me! We're on the same side!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a wronged expression, Wei Xiaobao immediately became frightened when he saw Zhang Cheng raise his hand.
"Tell me, what brings you to southern Yunnan? What's the situation with that princess?"

Holding Wei Xiaobao, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but speak.
"A marriage alliance, brother, didn't you know that? Also, can you keep your knife away from me? People will die!"

Looking at the knife to his neck, Wei Xiaobao finally understood what it meant to be a scholar encountering a soldier—unable to reason with him.
That bastard is not only skilled in martial arts, but also incredibly ruthless. He's even more difficult to deal with than Ao Bai!

"Xinzhi, put down the knife. This is indeed the token of the Heaven and Earth Society!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng's expression, Jiu Nan immediately gestured for him to get up.

"Yes, princess!"

Upon hearing Jiu Nan's words, Zhang Cheng immediately tucked the long sword into his sleeve.
But looking at Zhang Cheng's appearance, Jiu Nan and Wei Xiaobao were stunned on the spot, because how did you manage to stuff such a big knife in there, brother!

"Ok?"

Noticing Wei Xiaobao's gaze, Zhang Cheng raised his hand again.
Shrinking back in fear, Wei Xiaobao quickly ran behind Jiu Nan, looking utterly aggrieved.

"Xinzhi, you are from the Prince of Yanping's residence. What are you doing here?"

Turning to Zhang Cheng, Jiu Nan couldn't help but ask,
She actually had a very good impression of the young man in front of her. After all, the Ming Dynasty had been gone for so long, yet there were still people who remembered that she was a princess!
"Your Highness, I have come here to protect the alliance between the Crown Prince and Wu Sangui in their fight against the Qing!"

While addressing Jiu Nan, Zhang Cheng's words were actually meant for Wei Xiaobao.
Because Wei Xiaobao claims to be a member of the Heaven and Earth Society, yet his stance is more skewed than anyone else's.
Not only did they protect Emperor Kangxi, they also thwarted many plans.
After all, if he really wanted to overthrow the Qing and restore the Ming, it would be so simple to poison the current Kangxi Emperor.

Although the death of Kangxi was not a big deal for the Qing Dynasty, since there were still members of the imperial family, it was still a significant loss.
The problem is, once Kangxi dies, the Qing court will inevitably fall into chaos, and that will be the opportunity!

Therefore, Wei Xiaobao's stance was never firm; he was simply saving people he knew!
"Wu Sangui!"

Clenching his fists and gritting his teeth, Jiu Nan's eyes turned bloodshot upon hearing that name.
Seeing Jiu Nan's blood surging, Zhang Cheng immediately stepped forward and said, "Princess, the alliance is only temporary. The Prince of Yanping's Mansion will surely settle accounts with all those who have betrayed the Ming Dynasty! Please wait for some time, and the sun and moon will surely shine again!"

Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Jiu Nan's eyes glazed over, and she couldn't help but say, "But the Ming Dynasty is already gone!"

"The Ming Dynasty may perish, but China cannot. To expel the barbarians and restore China is the wish of the founding emperor, and I will fight for this for the rest of my life!"

Addressing the nine difficulties before him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but become serious.
Looking at Zhang Cheng before him, Jiu Nan reached out and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "The Ming Dynasty is truly fortunate to have you all!"

"You're so stubborn!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Wei Xiaobao felt a sense of disdain.

The Ming Dynasty has been gone for so many years, isn't it ridiculous to talk about overthrowing the Qing and restoring the Ming?

"What the hell are you muttering about? Huh! Are you chirping at me? My ears are very sharp!"

Seemingly sensing something, Zhang Cheng looked at Wei Xiaobao, his eyes sharpening.

"Brother, no, brother, I didn't dare to cricket at you!"

Seeing Zhang Cheng reach out and grab him, Wei Xiaobao immediately begged for mercy.
"Alright, Xinzhi, there's no need for that!" Jiunan gestured to Zhang Cheng.

"Yes, princess!"

Releasing Wei Xiaobao, Zhang Cheng's eyes sharpened.
Because after Wei Xiaobao leaves, he will definitely tell the court about Wu Sangui's alliance with the Prince of Yanping's mansion!

By then, the Qing court will send troops, and he will kill Wu Sangui and control Wu Yingxiong. Yunnan will have no choice but to rebel!

After bidding farewell to Jiunan, Zhang Cheng went to find Zheng Keshuang.

After all, if he stayed here any longer, he wouldn't be able to complete the rest of the plan.

Only after watching Zhang Cheng's figure disappear did Wei Xiaobao breathe a sigh of relief.

Looking at Wei Xiaobao beside her, Jiunan said, "Xiaobao, your martial arts are so poor, this won't do!"

Looking awkwardly at Jiu Nan, Wei Xiaobao rubbed his head, too embarrassed to say anything.

The agreed meeting point,
Zhang Cheng found Feng Xifan and others.

Staring at Zhang Cheng, who was holding a flagpole for saving all living beings, dressed in a black robe, and with dust floating on his face, Zheng Keshuang stood there stunned for a long time.

This guy was probably going on a killing spree in the streets a couple of days ago, and now he's swaggering around with this in his hand. He's really something else!

"Young Master! Lord Feng, I'm back!"

With a smile, Zhang Cheng sat down, looking very happy.

"What's the situation with that nun?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Feng Xifan asked,

"The nun dared not say again, that was Princess Changping! Lord Feng!"

Looking intently at Feng Xifan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but explain.
Upon hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Feng Xifan exclaimed in shock, "What? Princess Changping, she's still alive?"

"Of course! Moreover, the official who was taken hostage was the leader of the Green Wood Hall of the Heaven and Earth Society!"

With a broad smile, Zhang Cheng had no intention of helping Wei Xiaobao conceal his identity.
After all, it's a rebellion. What's the point of hiding and concealing? Only a rebellion can be called a rebellion if it's open and aboveboard!

Upon hearing this news, Feng Xifan's eyes sharpened.

Looking at Feng Xifan, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Because whether it's official history or unofficial history, Feng Xifan was a traitor who surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, so we have to be careful!
Once he gets the chance, Zhang Cheng will kill him in one go!

Unaware of Zhang Cheng's murderous intent, Feng Xifan was still considering how to use this information to exchange for his official position!
Kunming, Prince Pingxi's Mansion
When Wu Sangui saw the people from the Prince of Yanping's residence, they immediately began to talk.

As Zhang Cheng watched Wu Sangui discuss the details of the alliance, he held his teacup and looked at the "man" beside Wu Yingxiong.
He nodded to Zhang Cheng, who then smiled.
Squinting, Zhang Cheng didn't say much, but he did laugh.

With Su Quan from Shenlong Island also present, it will be quite troublesome to deal with Wu Sangui!

After agreeing on the details of the collaboration, both parties got up to leave.

However, just after Zheng Keshuang and his men left, Wu Sangui asked, "How was it? The people from the Prince of Yanping's residence?"

"Feng Xifan's martial arts skills are almost on par with mine, but I can't understand that young man!"

When asked to speak to Wu Sangui, Su Quan immediately cupped his hands in a gesture of respect and explained.

"Really?"

Looking at Su Quan with curiosity, Wu Sangui became surprised.

"That person's spirit and form are hidden within; he cannot be seen through!"

As Su Quan explained to Wu Sangui, she became puzzled. After all, the other party was so young; he either didn't know martial arts or was incredibly skilled! Yet, he made her feel extremely dangerous, which was really too strange!
