Zhutian: My skills are not serious

Chapter 446 Queen Mother, you don’t want the Zhan family to be exterminated, right?
Si Gu Jian's face, which looked older than his actual age, sank, and his hair and beard became like snakes. He frantically mobilized the internal energy in his body, slashed with his long sword, and slashed with force, anxiously, and struck out five times in a row.

The indestructible sword energy cut off the dragon's horns, claws, teeth, head, and body...

After Si Gu Jian had exhausted more than 90% of his internal energy, the power of the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms finally dissipated. However, at the moment of the dragon's demise, a ray of green light broke through all the remaining internal energy in the air and pierced into his body obliquely at a speed that was difficult for the naked eye to see.

puff!
Blood rose into the sky.

Si Gu Jian's arm holding the sword fell and hit the ground, shaking up a light yellow soil and leaving behind some red spots.

The wind blew, blowing up the blood-stained gray robe and beard, so bright and so dazzling.

The whole audience was stunned and silent. No one had expected that such a domineering palm move could contain such sharp sword energy, which could break the arm of Si Gu Jian, a grandmaster, in one blow.

Haitang Duoduo stood on the tower, staring blankly at the scene in front of her. In the last battle of Cangzhou, her master was very unconvinced and always said that Bai Feng had colluded with the blindfolded man and used despicable means to seriously injure him. Did Bai Feng use despicable means now? The grandmaster with the strongest attack power and the grandmaster with the strongest defense power, both of them joined forces and failed to tie with their opponents, and Si Gu Jian became a one-armed sword.

He Daoren, Shen Zhong, Fan Xian, Wang Qinian, Shangshan Hu, Xiao En and others only had one thought at this time... This Bai Feng is really the strongest grandmaster in the world.

puff!
Ku He, kneeling on one knee, spat out a mouthful of blood, which froze into red crystals as soon as it hit the ground. However, it also forced out some of the cold poison, so the injury was not that serious.

"why?"

The same three words came out of the mouths of Ku He and Si Gu Jian, but neither of them moved.

Ku He asked why because he couldn't understand why Bai Feng was able to break his secret and achieve the unity of man and nature.

Si Gu Jian asked why because the moment his arm was broken he realized that the sword intent contained in the green light was exactly his Si Gu Jian intent.

"I'll make you a wise ghost."

Chu Pingsheng raised his arm, and the purple-gold Zhanlu sword that was half immersed in the official road shot into his hand like lightning. Purple lines lit up one after another, and the diamond lattice shone with breathing light.

He froze half of Ku He's body and cut off Si Gu Jian's right arm with a sword. His performance was very impressive, and so was the amount of true energy he used. Just the eighth-level charged Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms had drained a small amount of true energy from the middle dantian and the lower dantian, and he used the Toad Skill to borrow 40% of the sword energy from Si Gu Jian's fatal blow, thus severely damaging his opponent.

If we don't count the Purple Gold Zhanlu Sword, which is an external "power bank", plus the previous consumption, he now only has 70% of the true qi left in his dantian.

Seeing that he still had such fighting power, Si Gu Jian and Ku He looked at each other, one flew eastward, and the other rushed westward.

Chu Pingsheng’s goal is the Zhan family, and Ku He is naturally the first target.

The Frost Sword that disappeared in his hand reappeared. He touched the ground with his toes, soared up, and slashed towards Ku He's figure. The sword energy blew snow and flew eastward through the air. The green grass, willow branches, flowers, and butterflies along the way were all frozen and shattered into countless crystals, creating an ice path nearly three meters wide.

Fan Xian on the Drum Tower shuddered.

"I know who killed the Queen Mother."

"Isn't it Ku He?" After saying this, Wang Qinian turned his head mechanically, looked at Bai Feng who was lifting something into the air, and shuddered as well.

"Him? No way..."

In the open area outside the city, the icy sword energy did not hit Ku He. After all, he was a grandmaster, and his perception of danger was far superior to that of ordinary warriors. However, the diffused cold air caused the cold poison that he had forcibly suppressed to flare up again, making it difficult for him to control his luck.

Just at this moment, a black shadow fell on his head.

When he noticed what it was, his face suddenly changed and he punched the inner wall of the iron bell.

bang...

This blow did not even send the clock flying.

When Bai Feng's face appeared in the hole on the top of the clock, he understood.

"Are you wondering how I broke your unity of heaven and man? It's very simple, because the true qi I use is completely different from your heaven and earth energy."

As the words fell, the cheeks of the face above his head caved in.

Next breath.

ji...

The piercing sound waves rushed up into the sky, and even the clouds above the nine heavens were stirred by the high-pitched sound, with obvious stratification and vortexes appearing.

The ordinary soldiers on the city wall tried their best to cover their ears to resist the aftermath of the high-pitched sound.

I don’t know how much time had passed, but when an eighth-grade warrior like Tan Wu turned pale and felt dizzy, the high-pitched sound stopped.

Click.

Click.

Click.

Fine cracks appeared on the surface of the iron bell, and it shattered with a loud bang. A figure fell to the ground and there was no movement for a long time.

Ku He... is dead?
The great master of Northern Qi died just like that!
Si Gu Jian and Ku He arrived together, and in the end one died and the other was seriously injured.

Without Ku He as their backer, the Zhan family is completely finished...

Chu Pingsheng threw Ku He's body to Sean, who had disguised himself as him, and turned around and slashed with his sword. Boom! The bell tower, which was less than half a mile away from the drum tower, collapsed, scaring Wang Qinian so much that he almost fell off the roof.

In the ruins of the bell tower, a huge bell weighing thousands of pounds was buried under loess and bricks, with only the top part exposed.

This sword was certainly not in vain. What does it mean? Anyone with a little bit of brains will understand. The big bell that Shangshanhu brought to kill Kuhe was shattered by the Lion's Roar. There is a bigger and heavier bell in the bell tower of Shangjing City. If he wants to massacre the whole city, it will only take a few minutes.

A soldier on the tower trembled all over and said, "The Grand Master is dead, open the city gate... open the city gate quickly..."

This idea spread like a plague.

"I don't want to die, I don't want to die..." Someone turned the tip of the gun and pointed it at the city wall.

"General Uesugi Tora said that only the tyrants and corrupt officials will be killed. It has nothing to do with us."

"That's right, open the gate and welcome the general into the city."

"..."

More and more soldiers defected, and the idea of ​​rebellion soon spread to grassroots generals.

The Jinyiwei members were also wilful. Even if they had killed people, it was because they were ordered to do so by their superiors, such as the captains, thousand-man commanders, and the commanders-in-chief. The responsibility did not lie with them. Even for the sake of their wives and children, there was no need for them to follow Shen Zhong and the Zhan family to die.

A group of soldiers who abandoned their posts surrounded the city tower. A rebellious captain, along with two centurions and a dozen strong men, kicked open the door of the city tower under the indifferent gaze of He Daoren, only to find that it was empty inside. Shen Zhong had escaped at some point without anyone knowing.

Faced with a powerful enemy, this powerful official of Northern Qi actually deserted the battlefield. The already low morale collapsed at once. The commander of the South City Army surrendered under the pressure of swords and guns. Seeing Haitang Duoduo in despair, He Daoren remained silent and called out the names of several people and ran down the city wall.

After a few breaths, accompanied by the creaking sound of the door opening, the south gate of Shangjing City opened.

Uesugi Tora glanced at the imperial guards standing still in the west, pointed his spear to the north and said, "Enter the city."

Tan Wu and the others had murderous looks on their faces and galloped in on their horses, stepping on the green bricks.

Because there were rebels outside the South Gate, the long road from the South Gate to the Imperial City was not congested. There were only a few hundred Jinyiwei and flag-bearer guards. Shangsugi Tora was already known as the God of War in Northern Qi. Now he was rebelling with the power of Grandmaster Bai Feng. Who dared to stop him?
"Humph!"

Uesugi Tora only gave them a look and a cold snort, and they dropped their weapons one by one, retreated to the corner, and watched Tan Wu and the others ride their horses northward towards Zhengyang Gate.

Behind the street-facing window on the second floor of the inn, Yan Bingyun's expression was extremely ugly.

Uesugi Tora led more than a hundred cavalrymen to attack the city, and succeeded without sacrificing a single soldier? !

He was not worried about whether the Zhan family lived or died. What he was worried about was that if the accident happened not in Qidu Shangjing City, but in Qingdu Kyoto City, what should he do to kill Chu Pingsheng and Bai Feng?
……

at the same time.

Inside Ci'an Hall.

The atmosphere was so heavy that it seemed to solidify the smoke coming out of the incense burner.

Si Lili sat on a chair in the hall. The Queen Mother of Northern Qi pressed the armrest of the phoenix couch, pretending to be calm. Zhan Doudou paced back and forth on the steps, her face full of anxiety.

"I came to the palace to say these words because I couldn't bear to see the Zhan family perish. Queen Mother, Your Majesty, the opportunity is fleeting. Chu Pingsheng is a lawless guy. If you want to threaten him with me, the final result will be that the entire Zhan family, even the in-laws, will be exterminated."

The Queen Mother gnashed her teeth and said, "Li Lisi, are you threatening me? I advise you to understand your situation. You heard what Wang Youen said just now. Can Bai Feng fight against two great masters by himself?"

Si Lili was the name she used when she was a courtesan at Zuixianju in Qing State. To the Queen Mother of Northern Qi, she was a descendant of the royal family of Qing State. Her surname was Li and her given name was Lisi - Li Lisi, which is Si Lili when read backwards.

"Ugh."

She sighed heavily.

"Report..."

There were hurried footsteps outside. The chief eunuch Wang Youen entered the palace without reporting anything. He did not even kneel down, and reported the latest news in a sweat: "Empress Dowager, Si Gu Jian broke his arm and fled, Master Ku He...died in battle!"

Si Gu Jian escaped?

Is Ku He dead?

In the battle between the Grand Masters, both of them lost to Bai Feng in a two-on-one situation?

Zhan Doudou sat back heavily on the chair. The empress dowager was completely panicked. She tried to get up from the bed several times, but she couldn't because her legs were too weak.

Wang Youen glanced at Si Lili and reported the bad news again: "Tang Tong, the commander of the South City Military Division, has opened the South Gate and let Shan Hu into the city."

Upon hearing this, the Empress Dowager's mentality completely collapsed. Not only were her legs and feet shaking, but even her voice had changed. It was no longer as cold and unquestionable as before.

"Shen... Where is Shen Zhong? Where did Shen Zhong go?"

"I don't know, old slave."

"This one……"

As soon as the empress dowager finished speaking, footsteps were heard outside the door. A figure flashed at the door. Several people looked carefully and found that it was Shen Zhong, the commander of the Jinyiwei, who broke into the hall. He was holding a person in his hand. The person was about sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing a white robe and a jade hairpin in his hair. He looked a bit like Si Lili.

"Leaving the light!"

"Sister! Sister, save me."

When the brother and sister met, Li Liguang subconsciously struggled towards his relatives, but was held down by Shen Zhong: "Be quiet, if you move again, I will kill you with a sword."

Li Liguang was just a weak boy, who was frightened by him so much that he dared not utter a word and just kept shivering.
