Although this little thief who suddenly appeared was short in stature, he was as agile as a monkey, jumping up and down as fast as lightning, and it was impossible for ordinary people to catch his tracks.
In a rage, the usually calm Ye Gucheng could no longer remain calm. He sneered and chased after him.
But after taking three or two steps, a bad feeling flashed through his mind, and he cried out in surprise;
"not good!"
"I fell into a trap!"
Ye Gucheng looked back suddenly and found that it was just as he expected.
A figure jumped out from the water and came to the lotus pond in an instant like a spirit snake. He grabbed the emperor's seal in his hand and then flew away without any hesitation.
The two people who came to steal the imperial seal were obviously in the same group.
It was obvious that the two had planned this in advance.
The one who made the first move acted as bait, and the one who made the second move was the one who really went for the imperial seal.
To be honest, the plan of the two of them was not a good one.
But perhaps because of the joy of getting the imperial seal, the usually calm Ye Gucheng lost his composure and actually fell into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain.
"Successful!"
"Monkey, go!"
Hua Daochang shouted loudly, and then used her lightness skills to the extreme. She seemed to have transformed into a spirit fox and fled out of the underground palace at a high speed.
However, Sikong Zhaixing's speed is even faster, so fast that he is almost like a shadow.
For a moment, the two of them actually left Ye Gucheng behind.
On the high platform, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but be shocked.
"It turned out to be them!"
It turns out that the ones who stole the jade seal were Chu Liuxiang's teammates on this trip, the Thousand-Faced Fox Hua Daochang and Sikong Zhaixing, a pair of senior and junior brothers and sisters.
"what happened?"
"Shouldn't these two be in the same group with Ye Gucheng? Why did they suddenly start fighting among themselves and want to take away the jade seal?"
"Today's conspiracy is really becoming more and more complicated..."
Looking at the three people chasing each other below, Chu Liuxiang couldn't help feeling a little confused.
But the current situation did not allow him to think any further.
Rongrong, Hongxiu and the others are still in Zhu Wusi's hands.
I must get the emperor's seal to have a chance to rescue them!
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend!"
"Hua Daochang and Sikong Zhaixing can form an alliance temporarily. At least they need to get rid of Ye Gucheng's pursuit first!"
Thinking of this, Chu Liuxiang no longer hesitated and flew out directly. His white robe fluttered, and he soared into the air like a roc spreading its wings. He shouted loudly to Hua Daochang:
"come here!"
"I am in the same group with you!".
Chapter 505 Ye Gucheng’s ambition!
As soon as Chu Liuxiang appeared, it was like a breeze blowing by, and the faint floral fragrance that drifted in the wind even blew away a lot of the murderous aura that filled the whole place.
"Brother Hua, Brother Sikong, Chu is here, don't panic."
Chu Liuxiang floated down, dressed in white, looking like a gentleman like jade, and landed in front of Hua Daochang like a banished immortal, blocking Ye Gucheng's pursuit.
Perhaps sensing the extraordinaryness of the visitor, Ye Gucheng paused, his eyes revealed a bit of solemnity, and he said in a low voice:
"Who are you?"
"Retreat quickly, don't seek death!"
There was murderous intent in his words.
The cold words were as biting as the cold wind.
Obviously, the famous Lord of Baiyun City was really angry at this moment.
Chu Liuxiang stood with his hands behind his back, smiled slightly, and said calmly:
"I am Chu Liuxiang."
"Chu Liuxiang?"
Ye Gucheng frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"As I recall, it was Zhu Wusi who sent you to get the imperial seal, right?"
"Now that Ye has taken action personally and has obtained the jade seal, you don't help me capture these two thieves, but instead try to stop them. What exactly do you want to do?"
As he spoke, Ye Gucheng had already placed three fingers on the pitch-black scabbard.
It seemed as if he was about to draw his sword in the next moment.
An indescribable pressure quietly permeated the underground palace.
But Chu Liuxiang still stood there with a smile on his face, touched his nose, and chuckled:
"I've long heard that the Lord of Baiyun City is decisive in killing and cold as ice. After seeing him today, I find that his reputation is indeed well-deserved."
"However, you should be at the top of the Forbidden City for the decisive battle at this time, but why are you here in this underground palace?"
"If you were asked to come and get the jade seal yourself, why would Zhu Wusi come to us for help? There is only one reason that can explain it..."
"That's because you have your own selfish motives and want to control the jade seal yourself."
At this point, Chu Liuxiang's eyes suddenly changed, as sharp as cold lightning, and his bright eyes seemed to be able to point directly into people's hearts. He said in a deep voice:
"City Lord Ye, do you think what Chu said is right?"
Hearing this, Ye Gucheng was silent for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled:
"Everyone says that Chu Liuxiang has a heart of gold and silver. No matter what unsolved case it is, it can't escape your eyes. Today I see that your reputation is indeed well-deserved."
Ye Gucheng's eyes were like torches, and he admitted without hesitation:
"Yes, I came here to get the imperial seal."
"The emperor of the Ming Dynasty can be the young emperor, Zhu Wusi can be the emperor, so why can't I, Ye Gucheng, be the emperor? I am also from the royal family, so why can't I fight for the throne?"
Hearing this, Chu Liuxiang narrowed his eyes, and a wave of emotion arose in his heart.
I didn't expect there was such a secret.
It turns out that Ye Gucheng is also a member of the Ming royal family.
No wonder, with his character and reputation, he was involved in this rebellion.
It turns out that his target was also the emperor's throne!
Thinking of this, Chu Liuxiang shook his head and couldn't help but sigh:
"Imperial power and wealth, what an imperial power and wealth!"
"Even the Lord of Baiyun City, who is a master of swordsmanship, can't figure out the fame and fortune in this world. I thought that with your swordsmanship, you would definitely be better than Ximen Chuxue."
“But now it seems that City Lord Ye’s swordsmanship may not be as devout as Ximen Chuxue’s!”
"If the duel on top of the Forbidden City could still take place today, I dare to assert that the loser would definitely be you, Ye Gucheng!"
Chapter 506 Chu Liuxiang fails again!
Chu Liuxiang's words were sonorous and powerful, and seemed to contain great confidence.
In fact, this is indeed the case.
After seeing through Ye Gucheng's true nature as just an ambitious man, Chu Liuxiang dared to assert that a swordsman whose sword heart is no longer devout is destined to never reach the pinnacle of swordsmanship.
Even if he was once the famous Lord of Baiyun City, Ye Gucheng, he would never be an exception.
The sword is the king of all weapons.
Different from other weapons.
Once the sword's heart is covered with dust, the sword's will will inevitably be greatly reduced.
For a top swordsman like Ye Gucheng, he is no longer obsessed with the changes of each move, but is immersed in the understanding of the sword's intent.
Once the sword heart is damaged, it will be a devastating blow to the way of the sword.
This is why Chu Liuxiang dared to conclude that Ye Gucheng was not as good as Ximen Chuxue.
After hearing Chu Liuxiang's words, Ye Gucheng fell into silence. His eyes, which were originally like cold stars, unconsciously showed a hint of sadness.
He is more aware than anyone of the changes in his mentality.
But so what?
Becoming an emperor has been his obsession since childhood, and it is also the only chance for his lineage to wash away the humiliation.
We are all of royal blood, so why can my clan only change our names and live in the small Baiyun City?
In order to wash away the shame of his ancestors, Ye Gucheng is willing to give everything.
What's more, outside of swordsmanship, I have gained strength that is a hundred times stronger than before!
Even if my swordsmanship never improves from now on, it is still enough to defeat any opponent easily!
Thinking of this, Ye Gucheng took a deep breath, then slowly exhaled, calming his originally agitated heart. His pair of cold star-like eyes fell on Chu Liuxiang again, and he said lightly:
"It is not your turn, Chu Liuxiang, to tell me how I, Ye Gucheng, should act."
"I'll say it one last time, get out of the way, or don't blame me for being ruthless with my sword."
Hearing this, Chu Liuxiang sighed softly and said helplessly:
"It seems that we have to take action today? This is really troublesome..."
Chu Liuxiang had only said half of his words when he suddenly attacked.
His figure flashed as if he had teleported, and he instantly crossed a distance of several feet and arrived in front of Ye Gucheng in one step.
The next moment, Chu Liuxiang's hands, which seemed to be carved from white jade and had stolen countless treasures in the world, rushed towards the sword at Ye Gucheng's waist as fast as lightning.
His target was very clear, which was to go for Ye Gucheng's sword.
For a swordsman, without a suitable sword, his combat power will be weakened by at least 30%.
Chu Liuxiang is also very confident in his methods.
After all, the title of Thief Master was not something he just made up.
In the more than ten years since Chu Liuxiang entered the martial arts world, he has stolen countless priceless treasures with his superb martial arts skills and a pair of lightning-fast hands.
But at this moment, his target changed to a sword.
A famous sword.
The sword of Ye Gucheng, Lord of Baiyun City.
For swordsmen in the world, this sword is naturally a priceless treasure.
Before this, except for the time he met Su Liu at the Hua family, Chu Liuxiang had never failed.
Chu Liuxiang originally thought that, apart from that monster Su Liu, no one in this world would make him fail again.
But he never expected that his second failure would come so quickly.
Chapter 507: Once you have seen the ocean, all other waters are but puddles; once you have seen Mount Wushan, all other clouds are but mounds!
"You are so bold, you thief!"
As a loud shout suddenly sounded, Ye Gucheng's eyes were like cold stars, full of anger, and he simply turned his wrist and stabbed out with a sword.
Although he didn't have time to draw his sword, the sword in his hand still had a sword energy as cold as frost and snow, which was enough to pierce the heart with one sword! .
Ye Gucheng swung this sword with anger.
Although the sword was not sharp, its power was undiminished as it stabbed straight into Chu Liuxiang's heart, forcing the latter to retreat.
But Ye Gucheng was unyielding. He just shook his wrist lightly and the scabbard flew out, like a meteor across the void, shooting straight towards Chu Liuxiang.
