Xiaosheng is not a nerd

Chapter 1682 Suzhou Storm 08

Although he could not sense where the enemy was, he leaped into the night sky in the direction of the arrow.

A sharp force came towards him like lightning, but Qin Chuzhen was no mediocre fighter and had been prepared, so he successfully dodged the sword.

The threat of the arrow tearing the air as it passed by him still made him a little frightened.

However, if the enemy's target shifted to him, the golden-armored warrior would be able to free up his hands to capture Tan Tai He Qing. However, he had the foundation of the Traceless Strange Step, and his figure was ghostly in the dark night, so it was not easy to hit him.

Although the idea was good, the enemy hiding in the darkness was not obsessed with his life. After missing him with an arrow, he set his sights on the golden-armored warrior, as if he was planning to deal with him first after dealing with the golden-armored warrior.

Qin Chuzhen had no choice but to use his Traceless Steps to track the source of the arrow, but after flying nearly a hundred feet, he still couldn't find any trace of the enemy. He then discovered that the arrow was shot at the golden-armored warrior from another direction, which was really unbelievable.

  He ran back and forth, wasting his energy for no reason but didn't even see the shadow of the enemy. All he could see was the arrow that appeared out of thin air!

Qin Chuzhen had met many opponents in his life, some of whom were so powerful that he could not defeat them. However, he had never met anyone who was more ghostly than him and could kill people on a spree.

In desperation, he had to turn to Yun Woxue for help: "Fairy Yun!"

Yun Woxue was rescuing people and couldn't get away, so he looked at the people who came with him and said, "I'd like to trouble you, uncles, to help relieve the Sixth Prince's worries."

Several of them were dressed in white fairy clothes, with Taoist hairpins and fairy buns. If it weren't for the different body lines of men and women, it would be impossible to tell them apart as men and women.

One of the men disappeared from everyone's sight, but his speed was so fast that it could not be captured by the naked eye, and he had already jumped high into the sky.

Both the enemy and us looked up at the sky. The moon was still bright and the stars were sparse. Apart from that, nothing could be seen.

The man came to Qin Chuzhen, and Qin Chuzhen knew that he was here to help him fight the archer who was hiding in the dark: "Master, I clearly followed the arrow to determine his position, but when I was chasing him, he appeared in another position. It's really unbelievable."

The man raised his hand to signal Qin Chuzhen not to say more. At the same time, if a master wanted to hide, the opponent would have nowhere to hide unless he was several levels higher than him.

Once the opponent makes a move and shows his aura, his tracks will be exposed.

As the man raised his hand, an arrow appeared out of nowhere in the night sky and shot towards the golden-armored warrior on the ground.

The two men ran towards the direction of the arrow at the same time. The man's speed was obviously faster than Qin Chuzhen, which also showed that his martial arts skills were higher than Qin Chuzhen's, at least one level higher.

Qin Chuzhen was both surprised and happy. He thought that the people coming from Penglai Immortal Gate were all first-class masters. In this way, even if Gu Xuan arrived, he would not be afraid.

When Qin Chuzhen slowly arrived, the man had already frozen in mid-air, and it was obvious that he had not caught the person who shot the arrow.

The man lowered his eyes and said nothing. He relaxed his focus and suddenly turned his head. Another arrow was shot from another direction at the golden-armored warrior on the ground.

The man turned his head and left at the speed of a meteor. After a few breaths, he traveled a hundred feet and stopped.

Qin Chuzhen was a little slow to react. When he came to the man again, he felt the residual Qi in the air and said in a stern voice: "He was shooting arrows right here just now. It's unbelievable!"

The man remained silent, seemingly thinking about something.

At this time, the golden-armored warrior on the ground screamed again and was hit by an arrow again.

This time the man did not rush to act, but slowly turned around and looked at the direction where the arrow came from. Even Yun Ruoshui, the leader of Penglai Immortal Sect, could not teleport from one position to that position. There was no such body movement in the world that could transcend the limitations of space. The key was the time difference.

"I know, now I'll make sure he has nowhere to hide!"

After the man finished speaking, he rubbed his hands over his body, put them together like a Dharma seal, and rubbed them together. He shouted and raised his palms to the sky.

The sky was filled with sparkling flames, as dense as gilded sand, and as if red snow was falling all over the sky.

The entire sky above Tan Tai Mansion was illuminated, as if the night had retreated and the day had come, but this miracle only favored Tan Tai Mansion.

Everyone on earth was attracted by this strange sight. Since ancient times, mortals have always firmly believed in the existence of immortals. In the eyes of mortals, being able to create such a thing must be the magical power of immortals.

In the bright light, the man and Qin Chuzhen finally saw the person hiding in the darkness. It was a girl in green clothes.

She held a large bow in her hand, which was almost as long as her, making her look a little petite. Qin Chuzhen found it a little hard to believe that such a powerful arrow was shot from this girl's hand.

When you see the girl in green shoot an arrow with your own eyes, facts speak louder than words. The girl immediately changes direction every time she shoots an arrow. The trajectory of her movement seems random, but there seems to be a method hidden in it.

Qin Chuzhen saw it clearly and understood that the range of the girl's arrow was over a hundred feet. When he sensed the power of the arrow, he knew that it was shot at least two breaths ago. That was to say, when he discovered the direction of the arrow, the girl had already changed her direction two breaths ago. During the time he was tracking the direction of the arrow, the girl had already moved to who knows where.

Following the arrow to chase the person was wrong from the beginning. He never expected that such a simple thing could fool him so easily. It was just in line with the four words taught by Duanmu Ci - the great way is simple. The more people who practice Taoism are more likely to be blinded by illusions and forget the original essence of things.

The man watched the girl in green move and chanted, "The earth is the mountain, the sky is the water, the worship water, the ladder water, the nine-bend water, the impact water, the reverse bow water..."

Every time the girl in green moved in a certain direction, the man would read out the name of that direction. Qin Chuzhen asked, "Master, do you see anything?"

People who practice Taoism have a desire to explore the root of Taoism. The man couldn't help himself and responded, "I can see the direction, but I can't figure it out. I guess this method of walking in the direction is unique to a certain sect. There's no need to waste time on figuring it out."

Qin Chuzhen heard the hidden meaning, but couldn't figure it out for a while: "Master, what should we do now?"

The man smiled and followed the person.

The girl in green was none other than Qing Luan. As one of the four beauties of the Wang family, she was the youngest and was best at archery. "Shooting an arrow through an arrowhead from a hundred paces away" was not enough to describe her miraculous archery skills. What supported her miraculous archery skills was her pair of eyes with extraordinary vision. Objects a hundred feet away appeared clearly in front of her eyes. The night was as bright as day in her eyes, and everything was clear.

This is why Sima Yunxue adopted Qingluan back then. The four characters in the Wang family all have special characteristics: Su Zaomou is a demon, Hongye is a devil, and Qingluan has a pair of divine pupils.

The reason why she appeared in Tan Tai Mansion at this moment was that she was ordered by Sima Yuntai to protect Tan Tai Heqing and kill anyone who wanted to hurt Tan Tai Heqing.

At this moment, the shimmering light dimmed, the day disappeared in an instant, and night returned. But for Qingluan, who had divine eyes, she clearly saw a person rushing towards her, and she immediately drew her bow and shot an arrow at the person.

As fast as lightning, and powerful enough to pierce gold and split stone.

The man dodged it easily. No matter how powerful the arrow was, it was of no use if it couldn't hit anyone. It was like a lightning bolt in the yard. I was sitting in the house, so the power of the lightning had nothing to do with me.

“It’s not that I don’t have archery in my Penglai Immortal Sect, but archery is also known as the poor way. It is practiced by those who have no hope of the true way. It’s difficult for them to become great. How can you hit me with the arrow that I can see?” Qingluan was unmoved by the words, changed direction, and disappeared from the man’s sight.

The man smiled slightly: "Your trick is useless!"

He put his palms together and rubbed them like a Dharma seal, then raised his arms and pushed them to the left and right. Sparkling flames penetrated twenty to thirty feet, and his palms seemed to spew out two fire dragons, which suddenly illuminated the sky above Tan Tai Mansion.

Qingluan's figure was nowhere to be found again, and the man chased after her.

  Qingluan stopped suddenly, drew his bow and was about to shoot, but the strange thing was that there was no arrow on the bowstring. Qin Chuzhen was puzzled, was it a frightened bird?

Suddenly his expression changed. Something was wrong! There was an arrow, an invisible arrow. He warned in a stern voice: "Master, be careful, there is an arrow!"

There was indeed an arrow, and the man's keen senses had already sensed the killing power of the arrow, just like someone suddenly attacking from behind, although the eyes cannot see it, the body can still sense it from the subtle fluctuations of breath.

The man did not dodge, but closed his eyes, stretched out two fingers, and used the energy of his fingers to steadily catch the invisible arrow. He smiled and said, "Even if I can't see it with my naked eyes, I can still feel it. When I feel it, this arrow can no longer hurt me."

As he spoke, he opened his eyes. There was clearly an arrow between his fingers, but it was invisible to the naked eye. The man turned the arrow over, and only then did a glimmer of light appear on the surface of the arrow.

This is like some animals in nature whose bodies can blend into the surrounding environment, making them unnoticeable.

But no matter how good the disguise is, it is still a living animal, and if it has life, it has breath. How can it be hidden from a cultivator?

The man took a closer look and said, "It is invisible and silent, but it is quite clever. However, it is still an unorthodox method. Girl, I will show you what Tao is."

After saying this, the long sword behind him was unsheathed. Qingluan's divine pupil could see it clearly. A hint of surprise flashed across his face, and he immediately changed direction.

But no matter how she changed her position, the sword behind her followed her like a shadow. The man's voice spread behind her: "You can see it, and you can feel it, but you can't escape it at all. This is the way of martial arts."

A scream rang out in the air, and then a green figure fell from a high altitude, holding a large bow in his hand, and all kinds of arrows in the quiver were scattered all over the ground.

Everyone finally saw clearly that the person who had just been so powerful and murderous was just a young girl in green, with loose, smooth black hair, and looked so pretty that she seemed a little weak.

Both the enemy and us showed expressions of disbelief.

Tan Tai He Qing had never seen this girl before, and had no idea where she came from. He only knew that when he saw her blue clothes stained with blood, his heart ached slightly, and he walked forward and held the girl in his arms.

The girl seemed very resistant and raised her hand to push him away, but she was obviously seriously injured and was weak.

Seeing that she was still alive, Tan Tai He Qing smiled slightly: "Thank you."

The girl glanced at Tan Tai He Qing, and the hand that was holding his shoulder moved again, and then loosened. Tan Tai He Qing then discovered that blood was flowing out from her sleeves, and along her fingers, staining the place where she held the bow red.

Tan Tai He Qing gently covered the back of the girl's bleeding hand and said softly, "You have tried your best."

This sentence seemed to stimulate the girl. She stood up suddenly and said calmly: "I must die before you."

Tan Tai He Qing said with certainty: "Absolutely not, neither you nor I will die tonight."

As long as Tan Tai He Qing is willing to be captured, naturally no one will die. The girl said calmly: "There is another possibility. You die before me!" Suddenly, the sword in her hand pressed against Tan Tai He Qing's vitals.

This change was unexpected by everyone. Hu Diquan, Zhang Shiyi, Xiaoqiu and others were very excited, "What are you doing!"

  Qin Chuzhen was more nervous than anyone else. He risked his life to come here just to capture Tan Tai Heqing alive and threaten Xie Fu. If Tan Tai Heqing died, Xie Fu would definitely take crazy revenge and the matter would be self-defeating!

As the person involved, Tan Tai He Qing was calm and said with a smile: "It will come sooner or later. I have prepared myself mentally. Now is not the time yet."

As he said this, he reached out to take the sharp blade in the girl's hand. However, the girl was actually weak inside and could hardly hold the blade tightly, so Tan Tai He Qing took it away easily.

Hu Diquan, Zhang Shiyi and Xiaoqiu rushed over from the front and back. Tan Tai Heqing raised his hand to signal that there was no need to panic.

"Xiao Qiu, you are responsible for taking good care of this girl."

Qin Chuzhen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. At this moment, a burst of laughter was heard. The laughter was so loud that it made everyone's ears buzz. Qin Chuzhen's heart tightened. Gu Xuan was here!

The man who came was tall with a rough face, and was followed by a dozen people, all dressed in fine clothes, with the imposing manner of dragons and tigers. However, Gu Xuan himself was wearing a set of inner clothes, which made him look a little out of place.

It turned out that when Gu Xuan learned that Tan Tai He Qing had sent someone to ask for help, he immediately mobilized the Gu family's tiger guards to rush to Tan Tai Mansion without even having time to put on his clothes.

This time he brought all his family assets with him, and they were the eighteen people behind him - the Eighteen Tigers of the Gu Family.

The Gu family not only has the Gu Family Tiger Guards, but also these eighteen tigers. They are talents carefully selected by Gu Xuan, and they have spent a lot of resources to train them, and even Gu Xuan personally instructed them.

It can be said that these eighteen tigers are the backbone of the Gu family's martial arts, enough to compete with any sect or school, but the eighteen tigers of the Gu family have always been low-key.

Compared to the high-profile of the Gu family's Tiger Guards, the Gu family's Eighteen Tigers are deliberately low-key by Gu Xuan. Although Gu Xuan is vigorous and resolute in his work, he is also meticulous and not as reckless as his appearance makes people feel.

The last time when he dealt with Zhu Fenggong of the Zhu family, Gu Xuan did not include the Eighteen Tigers of the Gu family. This was because he was thinking of the old friendship between the Four Clan of Wuzhong and did not want to be too drastic.

But this time it was different. They dared to take action in Suzhou, at Xie Fu's home. It was obvious that the enemy was not ordinary, so they brought all their assets to the table.

Looking around the whole place, he saw the prince's personal soldiers wearing Ming Guang armor, and he already had some idea in his mind. It seemed that the emperor and Xie Fu had fallen out. Although this day was inevitable, it came a little suddenly.

When I saw Yun Woxue and several people in white robes and Taoist hairpins with fairy buns, I was secretly shocked. It seemed that they came prepared. No wonder they were not afraid of my name, Gu Xuan, and dared to act so presumptuous in Suzhou.

When Tan Tai He Qing saw that it was Gu Xuan, he blurted out in delight: "Third Master!"

The soldiers of the Zhechou government and the grain transporters shouted in joy and excitement, "Third Master!"

Zhang Shiyi and Hu Diquan took the initiative to step forward to greet him. They had seen the Third Master's demeanor during the military training at the Rudong Garden training ground these days, and they admired and respected him deeply.

Gu Xuan ignored the two of them and said coldly, "We'll talk later."

He walked directly to Tan Tai He Qing and said, "He Qing, I'm late and I frightened you."
