Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 444 Si Gu Jian, kneel down and sing Conquer!
A sharp sword energy that was two meters long broke through the air, and its power was so strong that even ninth-grade masters like them felt an inescapable sense of powerlessness.

Faced with such a powerful sword energy, Bai Feng drew with his right hand, circled with his left hand, turned around and swung, and the sword energy actually changed direction and shot straight to the front of the carriage, silently approaching Chu Pingsheng's shadow at an extremely fast speed.

call out……

puff!
With a low sound of air explosion, the shadow that tried to sneak attack Chu Pingsheng stopped where he was and raised one hand to block the sword energy.

There was a drag mark about half a meter long in front of him, which clearly showed that he was at a disadvantage in this confrontation.

According to normal logic, if one hand is not enough to defend, you can use two hands, but... this man only has one hand.

"Master!"

Haitang Duoduo's scream was heard from the city gate tower.

Everyone who heard this title was shocked. The Saint of Northern Qi called Master... that old man in a gray cloak, with a thin figure and only one arm left, was actually the patron saint of the Zhan family of Northern Qi, Grandmaster Ku He?

"You want to take advantage of the situation and attack my apprentice, Ku He. Sean's evaluation of you is absolutely correct. You really are a hypocritical hypocrite."

The masseter muscles of the old face in the cloak twitched continuously. Although the full expression could not be seen, it did not look very beautiful.

To attack the younger generation in the presence of Bai Feng was indeed not in keeping with the status of a grandmaster.

"I thought your helper would be Ye Liuyun, but I didn't expect it to be the one from Dongyi City. Si Gu Jian, it will be meaningless if you keep hiding your head and showing your tail."

As the voice fell, a breeze suddenly blew through the dense forest in the east, and a man walked out amid the swaying of the leaves.

He was wearing a long robe mixed with gray and white, his hair and beard were all snow-white, the corners of his mouth drooped slightly, with a hint of bitterness, and his eyes were dull, but not the kind of dullness that was empty, but the kind of dullness that made him look at everything as if he were dead.

Actually, Si Gu Jian was only about fifty years old, but he looked like a man in his sixties. The ordinary-looking sword in his hand was now surrounded by amazing sword energy, and it seemed that even a passing wind would be cut in half.

"Si Gu Jian."

"Is he the Grandmaster Si Gu Jian?"

"It's actually Si Gu Jian! The guardian god of Dongyi City? Doesn't he never leave Dongyi City? Why is he in Shangjing?"

"..."

People on the city wall were talking about it, and those soldiers who wanted to defect had to suppress their rebellious intentions. After all, a man's reputation is like a tree's shadow. Si Gu Jian and Ku He came together, and it was still unknown whether Bai Feng could defeat them alone.

Haitang Duoduo felt very strange. Ku He told him that he had gone to find Ye Liuyun. After all, Ye Wan died at the hands of Bai Feng. In the matter of revenge, the two great masters had the same goal, but Ye Liuyun didn't come? Instead, he was replaced by Si Gu Jian? Wasn't he afraid that Emperor Qing would send troops eastward and occupy his lair while he was away from Dongyi City?

"Bai Feng?"

Si Gu Jian's voice is very penetrating, just like his sword.

"good."

"Did your apprentice kill Shadow?"

"almost."

"I'll kill him."

"You don't have this chance."

Chu Pingsheng glanced at Sean who had disguised himself, and tilted his head, motioning him and Uesugi Tora and the others to stand back. He waved his hands behind his back, and no one could see his movements clearly. They saw a flash before their eyes, and two swords appeared in his hands. One was ancient and majestic, with a black blade covered with purple patterns, and the other was a sharp green sword with a bone-chilling chill.

Whether it was Fan Xian, Wang Qinian, or Ku He who were watching the battle on the top of the Drum Tower, it was the first time for them to see the second sword. The feeling it gave people was that in terms of murderous aura alone, the second sword far surpassed the first sword.

Ku He's face became even gloomier, because he didn't expect that Bai Feng didn't use his full strength in the battle of Cangzhou... Of course, with a blindfolded man, a jade staff was enough, after all, the two of them were in cahoots with each other.

"Where's your helper?"

"You mean Wuzhu? I can handle the two of you by myself."

"Humph."

Si Gu Jian snorted coldly and raised the sword in his hand.

"and many more."

"What? Are you scared?"

"I have a question for him." Chu Pingsheng pointed his sword at Ku He: "Tell Haitang Duoduo her real name."

"..."

"Is it the Songzhi Immortal Order?"

"..."

"The princess of the Karna tribe, right?"

"..."

"Not speaking is the default."

The Holy Maiden of Northern Qi standing on the city wall took several steps back, slowly squatted down, and buried her head in her arms. Although she was mentally prepared, after seeing the reaction of the master who raised her, it was still difficult for her to accept the fact that she was also a tool used by the Zhan family to maintain its rule.

Chu Pingsheng sneered, "I thought you would shamelessly continue to lie to her fiancée since childhood. It seems that you still have some bottom line as a grandmaster. In this case, I will leave you a complete body later... uh."

"Arrogant!" Ku He remembered the humiliation of having one of his arms cut off by him that day, and immediately slapped out with his palm, hitting Chu Pingsheng in the face.

The Frost Sword swirled with a clang, and the sword tip spun, shattering Ku He's palm power. In his other hand, the Purple Gold Zhanlu Sword pointed at Si Gu Jian.

"Aren't you coming along?"

The ventriloquy was low, but it was as piercing as needles to the ears of the arrogant swordsman. He did not care whether doing so would dishonor his status as a grandmaster. He raised his sword and used his sword skills in all four directions, looking left but not right, front but not back. His sword intent was like a startled bird flying or a fish swimming in the water, and he delivered eighteen quick sword moves in a row.

Although Ku He only had one arm left, his attack was not much inferior to Si Gu Jian, and he used both fists and feet.

The air was filled with the sound of bursting true energy and hissing sword beams.

Ku He had always believed that Chu Pingsheng and Wu Zhu teamed up to plot against him in the last battle of Cangzhou. Now that it had become a real two-on-one situation, Si Gu Jian, a guy who had a grudge against Chu Pingsheng for killing his brother, would definitely not stab him in the back.

More than a month ago, he returned north injured. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He couldn't swallow this anger, so he entrusted Shangjing City to Haitang Duoduo, and asked her and the Queen Mother to use the strategy of delaying to stabilize Chu Pingsheng and his disciples after the Nanqing delegation arrived. He went south to find Ye Liuyun, whose nephew had died, to join forces. Little did he know that Ye Chong was actually driven to Jinzhou by Emperor Qing.

When he arrived in Jinzhou and met Ye Chong, he learned that Ye Chong, as his nephew, did not know where his uncle was at the moment, and that Emperor Qing exiled Ye Liuyun to the frontier just because he had always been a coward.

Just when Ku He was worrying about his brain, Si Gu Jian's apprentice Wang Shisan came to him and said that his master wanted to see him.

He was not surprised that Dongyi City had tracked his whereabouts. Firstly, Dongyi City had a developed business and had spies in cities around the world. Secondly, he only had one arm left, making him easy to identify. Thirdly, in order to let Ye Liuyun know his whereabouts, he did not deliberately hide himself.

After following Wang Shisan to Dongyi City, they believed that Ye Liuyun was most likely expressing his dissatisfaction by not showing up because Emperor Qing was colluding with Bai Feng. But no matter what Ye Liuyun thought, both of them had a grudge against Master Bai Feng, and even if they were standing on the position of countering Qing, they should join hands and kill Bai Feng first.

So the two of them formed an alliance and headed north all the way to the capital of Qi State. They happened to meet Chu Pingsheng speaking loudly in front of the city gate, saying that he would drive the Zhan family out of the imperial city. So they rushed out at the critical moment, one of them killed Bai Feng with a sword, and the other restrained his murderous intent and ambushed Chu Pingsheng.

But no one knew what kind of martial arts Bai Feng used that could deflect the sword energy of Si Gu Jian, who was known for his speed and fierceness.

This is the experience since the end of the Battle of Cangzhou to this day.

At the same time, the news of the fierce battle between the three great masters Bai Feng, Si Gu Jian and Ku He outside the city spread like a tide to the imperial city.

As fierce as Shen Zhong was, he also prayed in his heart to the gods to bless Bai Feng to be defeated and Ku He and Si Gu Jian to win.

Wang Qinian saw that he didn't have to worry about being sent the clock, and he became very excited.

"My Lord, who do you think will win this battle?"

"Wang Qinian, don't you notice that the temperature seems to be a little lower?"

"Sir, it is true what you said."

"Look at the other sword in Bai Feng's hand."

"What happened to the sword?"

"Last year, the Qing imperial palace was attacked...was it a coincidence?"

"grown ups?"

"..."

On the main road of Shangjing City, both the common people and the nobles in the court were anxiously waiting for the result. Zhuang Mohan had already returned to his own courtyard surrounded by his disciples. He seemed to be indifferent to the rise and fall of Qi. He asked the youngest disciple to grind ink and the second youngest disciple to press books. While annotating the "Chu Ci" on the desk, he told several proud disciples who were standing beside him and pretending to be calm about their feelings about the books on the desk.

In the imperial city, the empress dowager and Zhan Doudou heard that Ku He had returned with reinforcements and returned to Ci'an Palace from the underground palace, and they sat down on the phoenix couch anxiously. Both mother and daughter looked unhappy, their faces were pale, and they were sweating, and they would be startled by sounds coming from unknown corners.

"How did things develop to this point?"

The Queen Mother could not answer her daughter's question.

She herself was also confused, as she was sitting fine on the phoenix couch just an hour ago.

"Queen Mother, Queen Mother..."

The chief eunuch Wang Youen ran in from outside.

Seeing that he did not flee like the palace maids and eunuchs, the mother and daughter were relieved: "Did the situation in the battle ahead change?"

"No, it's Si Lili. Miss Lili has entered the palace."

"She...she is entering the palace at this time?"

"Yes, she said she wanted to see the Queen Mother and the Emperor."

Zhan Doudou didn't wait for the old lady to speak, and waved her hand and said, "Bring her over here."

"Yes."

Wang Youen bowed and stepped back, then left the palace.

……

Ding……

Si Gu Jian twisted his wrist and the sword, which was three points longer than an ordinary long sword, rushed forward and pierced the black blade of the purple gold Zhanlu sword. Unexpectedly, a purple light flashed and the sword energy from the tip of the sword disappeared instantly.

That feeling...it's like...it's like being swallowed by something.

It was the first time he had encountered such a thing. He felt strange but also unwilling to admit defeat. He quickly retracted his sword, stepped back half a step, and suddenly swung it upwards, slashing out a sword energy. However, Bai Feng just turned his head and avoided it by a hair's breadth.

Not to mention ordinary people, even if it was a ninth-grade master, if he tried to dodge the sword energy at such a distance, even if he was not split in half, he would be injured by the strong energy. When it came to Bai Feng, he lifted his robe slightly, and the breeze lingering around his body rushed upwards, dissolving the aftermath of the sword energy.

When it comes to this level of precise control over true energy, no other grandmaster he knows can match him.
