Chapter 212 The two guardians of the Black Lotus Sect

Everyone's eyes widened, not daring to blink for fear of missing any details.

But Yan Ming in the crowd secretly patted Lu Xiaofeng when Ye Gucheng landed on the roof, and said in a very low voice: "This Ye Gucheng is fake."

"Ok?"

Lu Xiaofeng was also stroking his chin and thinking, as if thinking about something. After Yan Ming reminded him, he looked again, and his expression quickly changed.

It really is fake!

Lu Xiaofeng and Ye Gucheng are also good friends and are very familiar with them. But Ye Gucheng didn't see through the newly appeared Ye Gucheng at the first time. Instead, he noticed something strange after Yan Ming's reminder, which shows how powerful the other party's disguise is.

Lu Xiaofeng noticed the opponent's sword. According to his observation, as Ye Gucheng was a guest of Prince Pingnan's Palace, there was an inscription of Prince Pingnan's Palace on his sword that was hard to notice.

A master of swordsmanship like Ye Gucheng would definitely not change his sword casually in such an important duel, but the person in front of him did not, which is enough to prove that it is fake.

The reason why Yan Ming was able to see through it was that on the one hand he was familiar with the plot, and on the other hand he realized that although the Ye Gucheng in front of him had true meaning in his body, it was far from sharp enough, and it was obvious that he could not be the Lord of Baiyun City.

Why did Ye Gucheng find a substitute to appear on the night of the decisive battle?

Is he afraid? This is impossible. Ye Gucheng is as arrogant as Ximen Chuixue, and the word "cowardice" does not exist in the dictionary.

Considering the recent events, Lu Xiaofeng's mind was running wildly, and he immediately thought of something.

"No, Brother Yan, come with me quickly!"

After saying that, Lu Xiaofeng took Yan Ming and turned around to leave.

The crowd was all craning their heads to watch the duel between the two, and no one noticed Lu Xiaofeng's departure.

"If my guess is correct, Your Majesty may be in danger!"

As soon as Lu Xiaofeng and Yan Ming separated from the crowd, they immediately activated their Qinggong skills and swept away like two gusts of light wind.

Several Imperial Guards tried to stop him, but as soon as they saw it, there was no one left.

In the palace, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng faced each other for a long time. Just when the spectators were almost impatient, Ximen Chuixue spoke.

"Go away, I won't kill anyone who wants to die!"

Fake Ye Gucheng's expression changed: "How did you know I wanted to die?"

"You are not Ye Gucheng at all, and my sword is not worth unsheathing for you."

After saying that, Ximen Chuixue left without looking back, leaving everyone watching looking at each other.

"What, this person is not Ye Gucheng?"

"Are you mistaken? No matter how you look at it, he is the Lord of Baiyun City..."

Only the fake Ye Gucheng was silent for a moment, determination suddenly flashed in his eyes.

"Ximen Chuixue, don't even think about escaping, watch the sword..."

False Ye Gucheng charged forward with his sword, but as soon as he approached Ximen Chuixue's back, a fierce fight suddenly broke out between the two.

Then under the moonlight, everyone saw that Ye Gucheng's face was blown away by a fierce momentum. He was actually wearing a disguise mask, and the face underneath was that of another person...

This Ye Gucheng is indeed fake!

Ximen Chuixue didn't even look back, he jumped down and disappeared into the darkness.

At the same time, in a luxuriously decorated study room.

When Tian Zi was holding a book and reading at night, his mind was obviously not on this. Instead, he raised his head and looked out the window from time to time, thinking about the outcome of the great battle between Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng.

Although today's son is not good at martial arts, his mind and heart are not comparable to ordinary people, and he is also very interested in such masters. Otherwise, he would not have agreed to a battle between the two at the top of the Forbidden City.

If it weren't for the security concerns and the strong objections of the guards, the Emperor himself would have wanted to watch the battle.

Familiar footsteps came from the window, and a eunuch walked in with a hunched body and a smile on his face.

"Old slave Wang An, serve your Majesty with tea."

"Wang An, didn't you leave the capital on orders?"

When the emperor saw him, he was slightly startled.

"I want to invite your Majesty to meet someone."

As the eunuch spoke, the smile on his face seemed to remain unchanged, but in fact, the corners of his mouth had turned slightly cold.

The emperor was stunned, his eyes slowly turned behind the eunuch, and suddenly focused.

Because a figure walked over.

The emperor was shocked that this figure was very familiar to him, and not just familiar.

No matter the facial features, body and deportment, or even the clothes he is wearing, they are exactly the same as him!

It's just that the other person's demeanor was ruthless and fanatical.

Faced with this scene, the emperor's mind could not turn around for a while.

"Who is this?"

Eunuch Wang An introduced at the side: "This is the direct descendant of Emperor Daxing, the eldest son of Prince Nan, and your direct cousin."

The atmosphere at the scene had begun to become extremely strange. The emperor's eyes flashed one after another, as if he had guessed something was wrong, but he still maintained his calmness and magnanimity.

"Prince Nan Wang? Shouldn't you be transferred to the capital? If you leave the fiefdom without my summons, what crime should you do?"

Facing the emperor's questioning, neither Crown Prince Nan nor Wang An panicked at all, but the serious smiles on their faces grew stronger.

Prince Nan Wang, who looks exactly like the emperor, coughed lightly, then imitated the emperor's tone and asked the same question: "This is what I want to ask you. Since you know it, why did you knowingly commit the crime? Do you want to rebel?"

For a moment, the two emperors, who looked and dressed the same, stood opposite each other, making it difficult to tell who was real and who was fake.

The emperor finally knew what the other party was up to, and his heart sank.

Not only do they want to rebel, but they also want to directly kill Tao!

And since they dare to attack here, it means that the other party is fully confident. But no matter how panicked he was in his heart, the Emperor's face remained calm: "Are you trying to deceive the world with such a trick? Come, protect me!"

The emperor raised his voice.

"Your Majesty Ye Gucheng is here."

Before he finished speaking, a man walked in slowly with a sword outside the door. It was Ye Gucheng who was supposed to duel with Ximen Chuixue at the top of the Forbidden City!

Apart from him, none of the imperial guards who were supposed to be standing nearby were missing.

The emperor had heard of Ye Gucheng's name, and even knew about his relationship with Pingnan Palace. With such a master present, the situation seemed to be extremely bad.

"Are you the Flying Immortal from Heaven, Ye Gucheng, the one who defeated seven stars with one sword?"

"good."

"Why did you become a thief?"

"The winner is the king and the loser is the bandit. It is yet to be determined which one is the king and which one is the thief. Now that I have my sword in my hand, I ask Your Majesty not to make any unnecessary resistance."

Ye Gucheng looked extremely calm, but he was already holding the hilt of his sword and walking slowly towards the emperor.

Not to mention that the imperial guards who were escorting him were missing. Even if they were present and tied together, it would be difficult for them to be Ye Gucheng's opponent.

Although the emperor was not good at martial arts, when he looked at Ye Gucheng at this moment, he felt that his whole body was sharp and dazzling, which was frightening.

The emperor finally couldn't withstand the pressure, and a little panic appeared on his face.

Ye Gucheng wanted to catch him, it was easier than blowing his breath, and there was absolutely no room for resistance.

But at this moment, Ye Gucheng paused, and suddenly a figure rushed in, rushing between the two of them like a breeze.

Ye Gucheng drew his sword in his hand at the same time, and a bit of cold light went straight towards the emperor.

The sword was very fast, but before the sword arrived, Ye Gucheng had already seen two nimble fingers.

There is no one else in the world except Lu Xiaofeng who dares to use his fingers to meet the sword in his palm.

But even with a hint of understanding, Ye Gucheng didn't take it seriously.

A few feet in front of the emperor, Lu Xiaofeng's sharp finger accurately clamped the tip of Ye Gucheng's sword.

It was obviously just two fingers, but it actually stopped the menacing sword power!

But the expression on Lu Xiaofeng's face also became tense, the usual carefree and carefree expression completely disappeared, and the veins on his forehead popped up.

Lu Xiaofeng's telepathy couldn't stop Ximen Chuixue's sword skills, and the same was true for Ye Gucheng.

After only a moment's pause, the sword tip pressed forward again, causing Lu Xiaofeng's fingers to begin to tremble, threatening to lose control at any time.

Seeing that the tip of the sword was getting closer and closer to Lu Xiaofeng's heart, in an instant, another domineering and vigorous aura intervened.

"Ok?"

Ye Gucheng was completely surprised. Before he could stop his hand, the sword bounced high and he almost lost his grip!

Lu Xiaofeng loosened her fingers and finally had time to breathe out. She shook her numb fingers and looked intently.

It was Yan Ming who took action! The clumsy blade in his palm was completely black and seemed to have no edge. But once it started to dance, the sword force poured down like a mountain. The continuous and lightning-fast sword moves actually forced Ye Gucheng to retreat continuously!

Ye Gucheng was not good at using fast swords, but at this time, he was forced to flash the sword light quickly to parry Yan Ming's sudden attack.

Even relying on the naked eye is no longer able to capture it, but simply relies on instinctive intuition to feel the Qi movement to defeat Yan Ming.

"Your Majesty, be careful."

Seeing the two fighting and approaching each other quickly, eunuch Wang An screamed in fright, but even though he told the prince to be careful, he stepped away first.

Ye Gucheng didn't look back, knowing that nothing could happen to Prince Nan, a light flashed in his eyes, and in an instant his sword shot out like a rainbow, and he turned to attack with a buzzing sound.

It was Ye Gucheng's special skill that broke the seven stars with one sword.

But Yan Ming, who had been attacking, stepped back first, causing his sword to hit the empty space.

The two jumped away in opposite directions, and Ye Gucheng's eyes were fixed on Yan Ming.

"If I guess correctly, this is the famous Guanzhong Divine Catcher, right?"

"Lord Yecheng, nice to meet you."

Yan Ming gestured slightly.

Ye Gucheng was secretly shocked.

He had heard of Yan Ming, but he had never taken it to heart, but judging from the previous fight, this boy's overall strength was not weaker than his own in a real fight!

Why is he so strong and where did he come from?

Seeing that a good thing was ruined, Crown Prince Nan's face was no longer as calm as before.

"Lord Yecheng, hurry up, the night is long and there are many dreams, hurry up and deal with them."

Ye Gucheng turned a deaf ear to the urging and did not take any action.

This Yan Ming's strength is beyond imagination, not to mention that there is Lu Xiaofeng next to him. It will not be easy for him to deal with the two of them.

not to mention……

Thinking of this, another figure walked out of the darkness.

Dressed in white, it is Ximen Chuixue who outshines the snow!

"We obviously made an appointment, but you broke it." Ximen Chuixue looked at Ye Gucheng and said calmly.

There were the Emperor and Crown Prince Nan Wang present, but Ximen Chuixue turned a deaf ear to them all and seemed to only have eyes for Ye Gucheng.

"City Lord Ye, you have always been obsessed with swordsmanship and indifferent to fame and wealth, but why are you driven by rebels?" Lu Xiaofeng asked with a complicated expression.

Lu Xiaofeng also had a good relationship with Ye Gucheng, and she didn't want to be his enemy at all, but she didn't expect...

Even with Lu Xiaofeng's mind, he couldn't figure out why Ye Gucheng did this.

Ye Gucheng didn't say anything, but Yan Ming's voice reached Lu Xiaofeng's ears.

"It's very simple. If I'm right, Lord Ye is a descendant of the former royal family. Although Lord Ye doesn't seek power and has no intention of restoring the country, he can't let go of the hatred of destroying the country."

"Ah?" Lu Xiaofeng was stunned. He didn't know there was such an inside story, so it made sense. It's no wonder that such a proud man as Ye Gucheng would cooperate with King Pingnan in his rebellion. And judging from Ye Gucheng's expression, Yan Ming's words should be correct.

Ye Gucheng unexpectedly looked at Yan Ming again. This matter was secret and few people knew about it. How did he find out?

But none of that matters now.

Soon there were footsteps outside the palace, and a group of imperial guards arrived belatedly and immediately blocked the door.

"His Majesty!"

The emperor waved his hand to indicate that he was fine.

"Ximen Chuixue, please capture these rebels immediately."

The emperor spoke, but Ximen Chuixue didn't respond at all, his eyes were still on Ye Gucheng.

"I don't care about your affairs. No one else can touch Ye Gucheng. He still owes me a duel. If someone ruins our duel, then I and Ye Gucheng will use our swords to fight out. I believe no one can stop me." Stay with us.”

After hearing Ximen Chuixue's words, Ye Gucheng's eyes were filled with sparkle again.

"Okay, although today's matter cannot be accomplished, I will have no regrets if I can fight with you!"

"what?"

The emperor was stunned on the spot and couldn't recover for a long time. He originally thought that Ximen Chuixue was here to save him, but now it seems that the master's brain circuit is completely different from his own.

But the emperor soon reacted and did not get angry.

At this moment, the situation has reversed. With Lu Xiaofeng, Yanming and a group of forbidden troops escorting him, Prince Nan without Ye Gucheng can't make any waves.

Just as he was thinking about it, the noisy footsteps outside started again, and Wei Ziyun led the people to arrive belatedly.

When the emperor saw the commander of the imperial army, he felt confident.

"Okay, I'm also curious and want to witness the battle between the two great swordsmen..."

Before he finished speaking, a sneer suddenly came from his ears. The emperor frowned and looked around, and found that it was the eunuch Wang An.

Wang An's smile was in stark contrast to Prince Nan's face, which was pale and trembling when he saw what had happened.

"what are you laughing at?"

Wang An laughed even louder: "Originally, Ye Gucheng took down His Majesty and the plan was completed, but now that something unexpected has happened, we have to make a bigger fuss."

"What do you mean?"

Seeing Wang An's demeanor, Lu Xiaofeng instinctively sensed something was wrong and took a few steps back to protect the emperor.

"Wei Ziyun, Commander Wei, come quickly to protect us."

Wei Ziyun, the commander of the Forbidden Army, walked over and Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up.

But before he had taken a few steps, a cold light suddenly struck him from the waist, causing Wei Ziyun to dodge in embarrassment.

"Yan Captou, what are you doing? This is Wei Ziyun, the commander of the Forbidden Army, one of our own." Lu Xiaofeng shouted from the side.

Yan Ming: "Not necessarily."

However, after Wei Ziyun stood up in embarrassment, his expression suddenly changed.

"Okay, you can actually detect this, brothers, do it!"

"kill!"

Following Wei Ziyun's order, the group of forbidden troops he had just brought suddenly started to attack, without saying a word, they launched an attack on the first group of forbidden troops who came to escort them.

"what!"

Their attention was focused on the front, and they never expected that their own people behind them would rise up and attack, and a group of guards fell into a pool of blood.

At the same time, eunuch Wang An took a few steps forward and pulled open his outer robe, revealing the black lining inside, with a strange black lotus embroidered on it.

"Old slave Wang An, I sincerely welcome the two protectors!"

"What!" The emperor was confused by this sudden change. Why did the commander of the imperial army, who had always been loyal and never had any problems, suddenly betrayed him? Who is this protector?

"The black lotus comes to the world to save all living beings."

As the silk-like chanting got closer and closer, all the guards loyal to the emperor outside the palace were slaughtered in the blink of an eye.

Wei Ziyun waved his hand, and the rebels split apart to clear a path.

A group of congregants dressed in Black Lotus attire came in.

This was obviously the palace, but they didn't know when they had sneaked in. At this moment, they were open and above board, as if they were on their own territory.

Wei Ziyun respectfully stepped aside.

Seeing that these cult members were composed of Black Lotus boys and Black Lotus warriors, Yan Ming took a quick look and found that their strength was not weak!

Surrounded by them were two figures, getting closer and closer with the chanting, stepping on the bodies that were still warm, and walking slowly.

The emperor had never seen such a strange scene before, and he was so shocked that he could not speak.

Lu Xiaofeng also looked solemn, and the two people surrounded by the Black Lotus cult members actually felt that their aura was very familiar to them.

Soon, the congregants separated left and right.

"It's you, the protector of the Black Lotus Sect?"

Lu Xiaofeng's voice sounded in disbelief.
