Chapter 61 A bloody breakout, shocking news

half a month later.

into the night.

The heavy snow that fell a few days ago has basically disappeared. In the dark house, Lin Xingchao and his apprentice Xi Beichen put on night clothes and wore long swords.

In the room, although this was not the first time, Gu Yourong still said with concern: "Master, senior brother, please be careful during this trip. I will wait for you to come back at home."

Xi Beichen smiled: "It's just a matter of passing judgment across the government offices. I don't have the power to restrain a chicken, so junior sister, don't worry."

Lin Xingchao also smiled lightly and said: "Rong'er just rest first, you don't have to wait for us."

After saying that, he and Xi Beichen pushed the door open and walked out.

After leaving the house, the two figures almost blended into the darkness and rushed straight towards the center of the city.

As the night fell, watchmen and street patrol teams could occasionally be seen on the street, but the master and apprentice pair were like invisible ghosts, passing through the streets silently, and soon traveled more than ten miles, and then stopped at On a street corner.

I saw more than twenty feet away diagonally opposite.

A large and tall house stands with the word "Liu Mansion" written on the plaque in the middle. Lanterns hanging on the wall illuminate the surrounding lights. It is obviously a powerful family's home.

Liu Yunhan, the general judge of Fengyang Mansion, was an official of the sixth rank. Although he was not a high official, he was still one of the most powerful people in the East City.

And just like the target they were looking for before, Liu Yunhan was also famous for being corrupt and bending the law to seek power for personal gain. No matter how big the crime was, he could get rid of the powerful children in the city as long as they were not rebelling.

Since the Tsing Yi Guests became more and more popular, Liu Yunhan was also frightened by the news. He immediately reported illness and hid in his home like an ostrich. It has been a month now.

Although this person was not a man of evil deeds, he still had a right to die. In addition, many of the evil tyrants and powerful men in Dongcheng had fled, so he naturally became Lin Xingchao's target.

During this period, they had repeatedly stepped on the spot. Although Lin Xingchao and his apprentice had no communication, they walked around to the back house of Liu Mansion in a tacit understanding, quietly climbed up the ten-foot-high wall, and then looked around.

Unlike ordinary people who cannot afford lamp oil, the courtyard corridor of the Liu Mansion has lanterns hung almost every ten steps. Although it is not conducive to sneaking in, it allows people to have a clear view of the situation inside the house.

The Liu Mansion was also a large house with three entrances and three exits. Lin Xingchao determined the location with a quick glance and then made a gesture.

Xi Beichen understood it and followed the other party lightly into the house, then moved toward the main courtyard.

but.

Just when the master and apprentice had just entered the main courtyard and had already found the main house where Liu Yunhan was suspected to live.

Xi Beichen was about to go to the front of the house to investigate, but Lin Xingchao seemed to have noticed something and suddenly pulled him back:

"wrong!"

Whoosh!
  Almost at the same time as he spoke, a ray of starlight suddenly burst out of the window of the dark main house in front and shot out!

Lin Xingchao unsheathed his sword in an instant, and the sword light cut through the darkness like lightning and hit the incoming starlight.

Just hearing the clanging sound, the starlight was slashed away by a sword, and it turned out to be a steel needle nearly three inches long and as thick as a little finger!
  The steel needle did not fall to the ground after being slashed away. Instead, it shuttled back and forth as if it had life, and continued to launch extremely fast assassinations at Lin Xingchao amidst the screams!

What's worse is that at the same time, there are two sharp starlights flying from the darkness on the left and right, forming a siege and killing trend!

"There's an ambush!"

Lin Xingchao's frightened and angry sword light swayed out like a gust of wind and rain, resisting the flying needle, and at the same time shouted:
  "Assassination with Royal Weapons, this is a high-ranking mage from the Five Realms, leave quickly!"

Knowing that he and others had fallen into a trap, Xi Beichen's hair stood on end instantly, but without any hesitation, he turned around and plundered wildly.

It's not that he is greedy for life and afraid of death.

After all, Lin Xingchao is a blood-refining martial artist from the fifth realm. He is very powerful. It is almost impossible to keep him without a large number of elite soldiers and muskets to surround him;
  On the other hand, he, the disciple who is a helper, is holding back the cultivation level of the fourth realm. Only by withdrawing first can Lin Xingchao have no worries!
  however.

Xi Beichen just turned around and made a quick sweep.

In the corridor ahead, suddenly there was a figure carrying a fierce sword and killing fiercely.

Clang!
  Xi Beichen raised his sword, a violent sound of gold and iron clashed, and his body suddenly shook violently and fell back.

Zagre, who had been lying in wait for a long time, suddenly appeared with a ferocious smile: "Little thief, Jingwu Division has been waiting for you for a long time!"

As he said that, he took a step forward, and his energy and blood surged down his body, making a thunderous sound. The sinister and fierce sword light was like thunder and lightning, and it went straight to Xi Beichen's head!
  The sound of thunder in the four realms is the captain of Jingwu Division!
  Zagre's attack was extremely fast, and there were a lot of footsteps approaching. Xi Beichen's body and mind became cold at this moment, and he fell into the abyss.

This was obviously a trap specially prepared for Qingyi Guest. He knew that both he and his master Lin Xingchao were careless!
  A life and death crisis is present.

He roared angrily, the blade of the sword in his hand trembled, and a swimming dragon seemed to pounce out from in front of him as he whirled, stabbing towards Zagre without any regard for his own safety.

"Humph!"

If he ignored it, even though he could decapitate his opponent with one sword, he would still be pierced through the throat. Zagre could only snort and suddenly change his moves:
  clang clang clang-!
  The collision of blades was fierce and fierce, and in a flash, the two of them collided like sparks hitting the earth. Sharp explosions, blasts of wind, and collisions of gold and iron were heard all at once.

Although Xi Beichen's cultivation level is not as good as Zagre's, at this moment, with his fierce and fearless momentum, he actually fought to a draw with the opponent!

But then.

Bang bang bang!
  The fire and the sound of explosions shot straight into the night sky. Xi Beichen, who was fighting with Zagre and trying to break out, suddenly saw flowers of blood exploding from his back!
  Under the huge impact, he grunted, and a huge flaw suddenly appeared in the sword move. Zagre, who was fighting fiercely with him, cut the long sword in his hand with a grin, and then punched him hard in the chest.

Bang!
  Amidst the sound of muscles and bones exploding, blood spurted out from Xi Beichen's mouth, and he flew up powerlessly, crossing a distance of several feet before falling heavily to the ground, motionless.

While falling to the ground, he roared with all his strength:
  "Master, leave me alone, leave quickly——!"

As soon as the voice fell, he fell on his back, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

"Beichen!"

Lin Xingchao, who was still being surrounded and killed by three steel needles in the main courtyard, was horrified and furious. In his rage, the sword in his hand made a sharp sound, and at the same time, the sword light swept out like a violent storm!

Clang clang clang --!
  There were three loud clangs in succession, and all three flying needles that shuttled like meteors were violently swept away several feet. Lin Xingchao took this opportunity to rush out and went straight to the position where Xi Beichen fell to the ground.

The distance between the two sides was less than a few feet, and with his tyrannical martial arts at the level of a blood-refining martial artist, he could reach him with just one pounce. However, just when he was about to grab Xi Beichen, who was seriously injured and fell to the ground, fire and gunshots rang out in his ears again!   Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!
  Dozens of gunshots were fired in succession. Although Lin Xingchao reacted extremely quickly to dodge, blood suddenly burst out from two or three places on his body, obviously being hit by a musket.

He quickly dodged to avoid the bullets, and with a ferocious glance, he saw Zagre, Li Zhenguang, and eight or nine Jingwu Division captains and elites appearing from nowhere, holding muskets. Shoot yourself.

Xi Beichen didn't know whether he was alive or dead, but Lin Xingchao hated these people so much that he stepped on the cracked blue bricks under his feet. A silver sword light looked like a horse, tearing through the shadows and light like a swimming dragon, and went straight to the nearest Jingwu officials. .

Lin Xingchao's eyes shot towards him, and the two captains Zagre and Yu Zhenguang felt chills in their hearts and subconsciously retreated wildly. However, a captain and three masters who were closer had no idea what was happening and just swallowed. It cracked open and blood spurted out. In great fear and pain, he covered his neck and fell to the ground helplessly.

When these people fell down, Lin Xingchao's figure was like light smoke and light, and the silver sword light in his hand turned into bursts of lightning. The flashes continued. Zagre couldn't dodge, and a deep wound suddenly burst out between his chest. He was just a hair away from being disemboweled!
  But at this time.

Whoosh-!
  In the main courtyard at the rear, there were also three figures with Taoist buns chasing after them. The first one, a Taoist who was over fifty years old, made a seal with his hand and let out a light scolding. A stream of sharp light shrieked loudly, like a The heavy crossbow shot towards Lin Xingchao like an arrow.

The speed of this blow was almost as fast as a musket bullet. Although Lin Xingchao dodged with an instant reaction, because he was shot, the steel needle still penetrated his shoulder suddenly, leaving a deep bloody hole.

The two Taoists also took advantage of the victory to pursue them, and at the same time manipulated the steel needles in strange ways to kill Lin Xingchao again. The elites of Jingwu Division also shouted back and continued to attack with muskets.

Although the injuries on his body were not fatal, they seriously affected his combat effectiveness.

It was absolutely impossible to save Xi Beichen in such a situation. Lin Xingchao roared angrily, and in a flash, he kicked out the two corpses under his feet and hit the flying needles and rain of bullets. At the same time, the figure took the opportunity to rush out, breaking through the siege like lightning. Over the wall.

In just the blink of an eye, under the siege of everyone, Lin Xingchao still broke through the siege and successfully retreated.

"It makes no sense."

Lin Xingchao's eyes disappeared, and Zagre, who was seriously injured, clutched his wound tightly, shocked and angry, and shouted:
  "Hurry up and chase him, don't let him run away!"

However, among the three Taoists opposite, the first Taoist with a strange appearance shook his head and said:
  "In my opinion, don't chase after the enemy. That person just now is a blood-refining martial artist from the fifth realm. If you catch him, it may be difficult for you to come back alive."

"That's right, you can't chase me!"

Looking at the corpses of the four Jingwu Division elites on the ground, Li Zhenguang was also covered in cold sweat, with an expression of lingering fear:

"Damn it, I thought it was just a thief pretending to be a Tsing Yi guest, but I never thought it would be such a great master."

The Five Realm Blood Refining Martial Arts Master is a master on the same level as Suo Helie, the governor of their Jingwu Division.

The energy and blood of these people are inhumanly strong. They can exert tens of thousands of kilograms of strength with every movement of their hands. They can kill hundreds of armored elites with their own strength. They are extremely ferocious.

If Chen Chuanying, the master of Youxian Temple, and others hadn't used Taoism to contain them today, all of them might have died.

The key is.

No one thought that Tsing Yi Ke's impostor would be such a fierce person.

Chen Chuanying said solemnly:

"It's a pity. We have been waiting here for more than half a month, but what we have been waiting for is an impostor. I wonder why this person with such martial arts would imitate Qing Yi Ke?"

Li Zhenguang said with an ugly face: "If the guest in Qingyi doesn't show up, and this fake one has also run away, how should we report to Mr. Suo?"

"What are you afraid of? The impostor has been injured by a gunshot and won't be able to run away for a while. All you need to do is notify the adults to seal the city gate immediately. If you scrape the ground three feet away, you will be able to find this person!"

Zagre, who almost died under Lin Xingchao's sword, walked angrily to Xi Beichen, who had fallen to the ground and was completely silent. After kicking him with his foot and checking again, he said with a ferocious smile:
  "And I deliberately held my hand back. The helper of this fake Tsing Yi guest is still alive. If he can be saved, he can also help us find the real owner!"

"Chen Guanzhu, please come with us and send this thief to Jingwu Division first, lest the thief come back to kill you!"

at the same time.

Completely unaware of what is happening outside.

The night was dark and the entire back garden was completely silent. Lu Yuan sat cross-legged in his room without moving.

There is an abundant supply of various finished elixirs with excellent effects, and after being blended with the art of blending, their potency is greatly increased, providing a huge amount of essence.

With the operation of the guidance technique, a large amount of essence is refined into true energy and merged into the Dantian and meridians.

So far, he has condensed into six rays of mana, and will soon condense into the seventh ray.

Although this level of mana is still low, it is much stronger than when it was first refined. Whether it is invisibility, terrain, or harmony, the duration and the number of times it can be used are greatly increased.

Just like that, I don’t know how long it took.

Suddenly, there was a slight movement outside the house, and Lu Yuan suddenly opened his eyes.

Then he saw Xu Dahu's figure coming to his door. After knocking on the door twice, he said hurriedly: "Junior brother, get up quickly. Something happened over there, uncle. Master is asking us to go to his place now!"

Lu Yuan's eyes narrowed, he put on his shirt, got out of bed, and pushed the door open.

In another room, Xu Erhu had just come out with his clothes on, and the three of them immediately went to Li Junxian's courtyard.

Then as soon as he entered the house, he saw an oil lamp burning in the room. Lin Xingchao was sitting at the table with his upper body bare and his face ashen. There were several bloody holes on his shoulders and waist and ribs, which looked quite serious.

Beside him, Gu Yourong's eyes were red, and Li Junxian was treating his wounds with a solemn expression.

Lu Yuan and the other three people who had just come in were startled and asked immediately:

"Uncle Master, what's going on!?"

"Who hurt you!?"

"Where are the others, Senior Brother Xi?"

There was rage, regret, and self-blame in Lin Xingchao's eyes:
  "In order to lure the Tsing Yi guest to show up, we found another corrupt official named Liu Yunhan as our target. However, this time we were careless and accidentally ran into the trap set by Jingwu Division. They ambushed Liu Yunhan's house. There is a high-ranking mage from the fifth realm, two mid-level mage from the fourth realm, two great Leiyin martial arts masters, and several other elites.

There were so many masters ambushing me. Although I wanted to lead Beichen to break out, I was unable to do so. He was brutally attacked by two captains of the Jingwu Division on the spot. I didn’t know whether he was alive or dead. I was the only one who escaped."
