"Let her go with me!"

(1/1)

53. Messenger

"what?!"

Li Bai was stunned for a moment and felt a buzzing in his head.

No one could have guessed what the thinking patterns of these Southern Xinjiang soldiers were. They did not negotiate with the envoys, but specifically asked Jiang Ke'er to accompany them!

Could it be that he was attracted by her beauty?

This immediately made the self-proclaimed elder brother, Taibai, furious. He glared at the other party with gritted teeth: "Nanjiang's actions are probably a bit dirty..."

"This is what the master wants." The cavalryman had a ferocious look on his face and laughed grimly, "The master has taken a liking to her and invited her to meet him alone. No one else is allowed to accompany her."

"impossible!"

Before Taibai Xia and Xiao Yu could make any decision, Qiao Qianxue coldly embraced Jiang Ke'er.

No one could let Jiang Ke'er leave her side for more than three steps.

At worst, she could blow up Shenzhou, although some of Shenzhou's secrets might be tricky...but she would rather take the risk than let Jiang Ke'er go deep into the enemy camp alone.

The atmosphere turned solemn in an instant.

When they called out Jiang Ke'er's name, Xiao Yu realized that the situation was by no means as simple as a siege, and he broke out in cold sweats.

But the people were in the hands of the other side, and it was indeed difficult for them to be tough against these soldiers from southern Xinjiang.

So he quickly stepped out to smooth things over and said, "Don't worry, the so-called negotiation means that everything can be discussed. The two countries have always had good relations and close trade. I believe that we can find a way to resolve any problem."

"Stop talking nonsense! The master said that she should go alone to meet him! No one else is allowed to accompany her!"

With the hostages in hand, the cavalryman's attitude was very tough, even arrogant, and he did not take the empire's combat effectiveness seriously at all.

Everyone secretly hated it, but they didn't dare to show it at all. They could only swallow the humiliation quietly.

"We can discuss this if we have something to say," Xiao Yu said in a humble tone. He wanted to try to persuade the other party again. "If we really want to quarrel, it will not benefit either of us. I hope you can report to the master and think twice to avoid another war."

"Let's fight, do you really think you are still the empire of its heyday?" The cavalryman laughed, with a hint of sarcasm on his face, "Times have changed! Your patron saint Jiang Ke'er has abandoned you. The Lord of the Stars has no time to deal with such trivial disappearances... but we have the leadership of Wu Zu! Come on! Let's fight! Let's see whose fist is harder!"

The taunt of this cavalryman is almost like a face-to-face attack.

Everyone exploded in anger when they heard this, and veins on their foreheads trembled.

But what they said was the truth.

The life and death of Saint Ancestor Jiang Ke'er is uncertain. She was in a critical situation when she left, and it is unknown whether she is still alive now.

The whereabouts of the goddess Qiao Xiaoxian has always been unknown. She is the ruler of time and space, more like a God standing in the clouds overlooking all living beings. There are countless affairs waiting for her to deal with.

The change of dynasties in China was just a trivial matter to her, almost no different from fighting for territory with gorillas.

She had no reason to care about such trivial matters in Shenzhou.

Lei Jian Xiao Yu glanced at Qiao Qianxue and the corners of his mouth twitched.

His eyes rolled quietly and he suddenly sighed softly.

"The road is narrowing, brother."

There was a flash of lightning, and then the horse the cavalryman was riding suddenly neighed in fright!

While waiting for the arrogant cavalryman to come to his senses, Xiao Yu, who had transformed into furious lightning, had already appeared on the horse's back. He was sitting behind him, giving him a weird smile.

"You..." The cavalryman was a little panicked, but relying on the fact that he was an envoy and had a hostage in hand, he still had a tough heart, "Get off! Do you think you can ride my horse?"

"not busy."

Xiao Yu leisurely took out the book and slowly tore off a page in front of the cavalry.

"You know what? This book has a clichéd plot, makes no sense, is written by a narcissist, and feeds me poison all the time... It's like toilet paper to me."

As he spoke, he put away the book, leaving only one page covering his palm.

The cavalrymen's faces were full of question marks, and they obviously didn't understand what Xiao Yu was going to do.

"And toilet paper, of course, is used to wipe something."

Xiao Yu smiled.

His hand covered with the book pages suddenly enlarged in the cavalry's field of vision, and soon a vast expanse of white with the bloody words on it was smeared on his face.

"Boom!"

Xiao Yu's five fingers gripped his cheekbones tightly, and the huge force caused the cavalry captain to lose his balance. He fell off his horse and crashed to the ground.

He was extremely shocked and angry, but before he could raise his head, the sandbag-sized fist once again fell mercilessly on his cheek.

"boom!"

His cheekbones were completely sunken and half of his head was embedded in the ground.

But Xiao Yu did not stop punching.

"Boom boom boom!"

His hand turned into an afterimage, and three consecutive critical hits all hit the cavalry captain's head, causing his brains to splatter. Even a god could not save him.

"The head-blasting punching technique I learned from Taiming Sect is really useful. The sense of impact is full, and the experience is amazing!" Xiao Yu stood up with a smile, "I just should have put a few more layers of toilet paper under it, tsk..."

Regretfully, he tore off a few more pages of the book and wiped the blood off his fist and body.

The rest of the Southern Xinjiang cavalry stared at him in horror, like a demon, not understanding why he suddenly went crazy.

"You, you, you...what are you doing? We have hostages in our hands! Doesn't the Tang Dynasty care about the lives of the people?" The other cavalrymen were so scared that they tightened their reins.

If they didn't know that running away was useless and that they could never be faster than Lei Jian Xiao Yu, they would have run away long ago.

"You killed so many soldiers of my empire, so you have to pay the price with a few casualties," Xiao Yu sneered, "The empire will send envoys to negotiate with your master, but your envoy obviously doesn't know the basic etiquette of negotiation... I'm just cleaning up a useless drunkard for you, so you don't have to thank me."

Wow, what a scoundrel! He killed someone and wanted others to be grateful to him?!

The cavalrymen were furious.

But after seeing Xiao Yu get angry, the toughness they had just a few seconds ago instantly grew wings and flew away.

They no longer had the courage to confront these Tang people. At this moment, they felt weak all over and their voices became stuttering.

"You...you guys..." One of the cavalrymen swallowed, "It's obvious that we can easily solve the problem by just asking the girl to go with us. Why do you Tang people have to complicate it so rudely?"

"I'm sorry, she can't go with you, at least not alone."

As Xiao Yu spoke, he tore off a dozen more pieces of "toilet paper".

Watching his actions, the remaining few Southern Xinjiang cavalrymen already knew what he was going to do.

Uncontrollable fear filled every nerve, making them stiff.

"When two countries are at war, envoys will not be killed!" A cavalryman shouted in a trembling voice, "Does the Tang Dynasty really want to provoke a war?"

"Fight if you want! Tang people can be killed but not humiliated! Come and fight if you dare!"

Xiao Yu raised his hand with a sarcastic look on his face.

"Besides, such an impolite person is worthy of being called an envoy? What a joke!"

"Soon my Tang Dynasty envoy will show you what diplomacy is all about!"

(1/1)

54. Let's go or not

diplomatic?

You killed the envoy sent to negotiate, and then sent your own people to the enemy camp. Do you call this diplomacy?

Brother Xiao Yu, do you have any misunderstanding about the word diplomacy?

Jiang Ke'er was confused.

Although she enjoyed watching the killing of that annoying cavalry captain, she could not understand Xiao Yu's thought process at all.

When the other party had shown a sufficiently tough attitude and confidence, Xiao Yu beat the envoy sent by them to death... How could he still negotiate with them if this continued?

Sending any envoy over there would be a waste of time!

Qiao Qianxue understood Xiao Yu's little thoughts and frowned slightly.

His confidence, of course, comes from the Holy Ancestor Jiang Ke'er and himself, the God Lord, in front of him.

He is calculating.

Now that he knew the identities of the two women, he was afraid that they would really ignore the current situation in the Tang Dynasty.

So they simply intensified the conflict to the maximum, letting Qiao Xiaoxian see it with her own eyes, and forcing her to take action to resolve it.

This shameless boy...

"That's not the case," Xiao Yu realized that Qiao Xiaoxian had seen through his thoughts in an instant, and said with a smile, "There is indeed someone in the Tang Dynasty who can handle the current situation. With his talent, he can act as a lobbyist and turn danger into safety even in such an unfavorable situation."

Li Bai beside him understood and smiled bitterly.

"Lord Dee?"

"Yes."

Xiao Yu nodded: "In fact, there has been movement in Southern Xinjiang a long time ago. His Majesty has secretly sent Lord Di to Southern Xinjiang a long time ago to meet the Lord of Southern Xinjiang as an envoy."

"But where is he now?" Li Taibai was puzzled. "Master Di has been missing for so long..."

"Your Majesty knows that the journey is dangerous. If we fly, our target will be too obvious and we may be ambushed by the enemy. So Lord Di proposed to hide his identity and hide in the caravan to observe the people's livelihood along the way."

"Merchant?" Li Bai glanced at everyone in Liang Gong's caravan with shocked eyes.

Obviously he didn't know about this. Only His Majesty, Lord Di, and Xiao Yu, the three planners, should know about this matter.

"I just don't know how the news leaked out," Xiao Yu smiled bitterly. "The assassins from Southern Xinjiang sent animal trainers and monks to sneak into the mountains. They came from afar to intercept all the caravans. Almost all the caravans that set out from Chang'an were wiped out. Now, I'm afraid, only..."

He glanced at the people in Liang Gong’s caravan.

“This is the only one left.”

The caravan members shuddered when they heard this.

"Your Excellency, you are joking. How could there be Di in our small caravan..." He suddenly choked in the middle of his words and turned his head stiffly to the taciturn fat man in black and masked in the team.

"You are the only surviving caravan. If there was no one in your team, Lord Di would definitely have died on the road." Xiao Yu sighed.

However, he discovered that everyone in Liang Gong's caravan focused their attention on the fat man in black.

"Looks like it's time."

The fat man in black clothes and mask had a deep voice, with the authority of a high-ranking official.

He took a step forward.

Xiao Yu then noticed that the man's body shape matched Lord Di exactly.

He finally took off his veil, revealing his covered face.

It’s Lord Di.

Although his expression seemed a little stiff due to wearing the veil for a long time, it was undoubtedly Lord Di.

"General Xiao has left me with a big problem." He smiled bitterly and sighed, "I have been trying to understand General Xiao's behavior from the beginning, why he killed the cavalry. General Xiao has experienced many battles and is definitely not an impulsive person."

"The Southern Xinjiang cavalry was too humiliating, why can't they be beaten to death?"

While speaking, Xiao Yu glanced at the bodies of the remaining cavalrymen. He had not only killed the cavalry captain, he had just killed an entire team.

"My empire has always been at the forefront of protecting China. It would have been fine if these good-for-nothings didn't come to help at the critical moment, but now that peace has finally come, they're taking advantage of the situation to rob us. How shameless!" Xiao Yu spat, "Anyway, we have Lord Di here. Lord Di will surely be able to solve these problems!"

To the people around him, Xiao Yu's behavior was simply hooliganism.

After he had his fun, he left the mess to Lord Di and asked him to go deep into the enemy camp to give a lecture.

Is this the empire's confidence... But isn't it a bit too confident?

"General Xiao thinks too highly of me." Fat Di smiled bitterly.

"Don't worry. You are carrying His Majesty's token. It's like His Majesty is here in person. Your words carry enough weight. If they dare to touch you, the Empire will fight them to the death." Xiao Yu continued to speak stubbornly as if he had lost his mind. "This is the character of our Tang Dynasty. A scholar can be killed but not humiliated!"
