Taiping Inn

Li Xuandu cut off the shackles on Qin Xiang's wrists with another knife, then sheathed the knife and bowed, saying: "Meet Governor Qin."

When Li Xuandu entered the imperial capital, Qin Xiang had already led his army to the war. When Qin Xiang was recalled to the imperial capital, everything was settled. Li Xuandu was taken away by his second senior brother Zhang Haishi, so the two of them had only heard of each other but had never seen each other.

Qin Xiang asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"

Li Xuandu said, "My surname is Li, and my given name is Xuandu. I have long heard of the great name of Governor Qin, but unfortunately I have never met him. Today I finally get my wish."

Qin Xiang's face flashed with surprise: "So you are the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal. I have also heard of your great name for a long time. I thought you had met with misfortune in the Imperial Capital that day."

Recalling the events of that year, Li Xuandu couldn't help but feel a little sad, and said, "Fortunately, others rescued me, so I saved my life."

Just as the two were talking, a group of evil masters had already boarded the Falling Flower Platform, including people from the Daozhong Sect and the Wudao Sect, led by an old man in black.

Qin Xiang turned to look at the old man and said in a deep voice: "This man is called Gutuo, one of the ten elders of Wudao Sect, and ranked 23rd on the Jianghu Black and White Chart. He was the one who stopped me in Dongting Lake before, so he should not be underestimated."

As soon as Qin Xiang finished speaking, Gutuo's voice sounded: "Qin Xiang, this man is actually the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal? It's a pity that the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal today is not the same as before, and is no longer the tenth on the Taixuan List."

Li Xuandu turned around and looked at Gutuo, saying calmly: "If it was still the same as before, "You are a guest of Zifu, how dare you do this."

"That makes sense." Gutuo was a thin old man. Perhaps because he was too thin, his skin was very wrinkled. His black hair was loose but did not cover his face. It was obvious that he was born with the appearance of a Westerner, with a high nose and deep eyes, which was very different from the people of the Central Plains. In his hand, he was leaning on a dark green cane that looked like a vine entangled. The top of the cane was carved with a grinning head, with a hideous face and two rows of white sharp teeth in his mouth, which made people afraid.

Gu Tuo stopped not far from the two of them, and slammed the ground with his cane, causing the ground to break into pieces. His eyes swept over the two of them, as sharp as a knife, and his voice was as sonorous as the sound of metal: "If it was the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal of the past, I would have just fled far away. After all, the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal's illustrious reputation has long been beyond my reach. But now, I didn't see any Purple Mansion Sword Immortal, I only saw a young man who injured 800 of his own while injuring 1,000 of his enemies, and an old military leader whose acupoints were sealed. "

Although Qin Xiang was a military commander, he was also a scholar from the Wanxiang Academy in his early years. After experiencing the ups and downs of the court, his temperament was far beyond that of ordinary people. When the eunuch announced the decree before, he was not very enthusiastic and generous. Later, when Li Xuandu rescued him, he did not show any joy. Now, after hearing the words, he was not anxious or angry. He just said to Li Xuandu: "Little friend Li, please help me buy another stick of incense, and then the rest of the things will be left to me."

Li Xuandu was also very straightforward and said "OK".

The two did not avoid Gu Tuo in their conversation. The old man looked at Li Xuandu and pulled the corner of his mouth: "Just you?"

Before he finished speaking, the old man's figure had moved suddenly, but he did not rush to Li Xuandu, but went straight to Qin Xiang.

Gu Tuo thought very clearly that Qin Xiang was the key. As for the young man in front of him, he was a former Purple Mansion Sword Immortal after all. It would not be surprising if he had some life-saving methods. If he really delayed for an incense stick of time, Qin Xiang would take the opportunity to break through the sealed acupoints, and then the situation would be reversed immediately.

It would be better to kill Qin Xiang first.

Gu Tuo pointed out the rattan stick in his hand, which contained stick, staff and staff methods. The moves were complicated. At first glance, the head on the stick looked like a ghost.

However, Gu Tuo underestimated Qin Xiang and Li Xuandu.

After Li Xuandu cut off the shackles on Qin Xiang's hands, Qin Xiang had already recovered the Qi in his body. The speed of Qi circulation of a great master in the Heavenly Man Realm was beyond common sense. Facing Gutuo's rattan stick, Qin Xiang was not completely powerless to fight back. He crossed his hands and slapped the head of the stick. Qin Xiang took advantage of the momentum to retreat quickly, and Li Xuandu took advantage of this gap to slash at Gutuo. If Gutuo did not stop, this knife would not cut him in half, but it would also make this great master suffer.

Gutuo was not careless. He pinched the blade of "Cold Beauty" with two fingers, and then flicked his fingers. There was no huge momentum, but it shook "Cold Beauty" and trembled. Li Xuandu's already bloody palm could not hold the handle of "Cold Beauty" and it fell out of his hand.

This was the first time that Li Xuandu's weapon was knocked away by someone after he returned to the martial arts world.

Since Gu Tuo was sent here by the Wu Dao Sect to plan such a big event, it means that he is definitely not the kind of person who acts impulsively. After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, he did not chase Qin Xiang, but ran towards Li Xuandu, who no longer had a knife in his hand.

Then, Li Xuandu was hit in the chest by Gu Tuo's stick, and the whole person flew backwards into the pine forest around the Falling Flower Terrace. It was unknown how many big trees he broke along the way. When Li Xuandu finally hit the last big tree and stopped, Gu Tuo was already close to him. The rattan stick in his hand, which was entangled like a dead vine, suddenly became soft, and swept out like a long whip, tightly binding Li Xuandu.

Gu Tuo said coldly: "The moon waxes and wanes, and people have their ups and downs. It is difficult to have everything. Zifu guest, you should know that the past does not represent the present. You should keep your tail between your legs when you should. In the past, you were a sword fairy of Zifu, and you killed people everywhere. Now you are trapped in a shallow place, and you still come here to show off your power. Isn't that courting death?"

Li Xuandu did not speak.

Gu Tuo suddenly felt a sense of alarm and turned around. He saw a white shadow appearing behind him at some point, grabbing him on the head.

Gu Tuo's body shook and jumped high. Not only did he avoid the white shadow's grab, but he also hit the back of the white shadow's head with a fierce knee.

The white shadow was directly knocked out, but it seemed that he was not injured. After landing, he immediately stood up without stopping and rushed towards Gu Tuo again.

Gu Tuo directly used the unique heaven and earth atmosphere of the great master of the heaven and man realm, and used the heaven and earth energy as a millstone to strangle the white shadow. However, to Gu Tuo's surprise, he still could not destroy it, but he did let the white shadow show its true form, which was actually a skeleton covered with flowing light.

Gu Tuo was slightly startled, and then smiled and said: "I underestimated you. I didn't expect that the old man Zang's "White Bone Mysterious Venerable" also fell into your hands. It seems that you also participated in the siege of Beimang Mountain not long ago. Unfortunately, there is no Yan Feiqing, no Su Yun'an, and no Wuzhen and Zhang Haishi here."

Gu Tuo simply ignored the "White Bone Mysterious Venerable" and turned to strangle Li Xuandu with the heaven and earth atmosphere.

I saw that with Li Xuandu's position as the center of the circle, the yin and yang were reversed in an instant, the five qi were chaotic, and only a small world was closed, like two huge millstones.

In an instant, Li Xuandu's face kept changing, from young to old, and then from old to young, withering and flourishing, like a leaf turning from green to yellow, and then from yellow to green. Fortunately, Li Xuandu's body was originally a warrior's body of the strongest nine in the Return to Truth Realm, and he also had the Buddhist "Leakage-free Passage". If it were someone else, even Yan Feiqing, without the protection of a treasure, he would be crushed to dust by this mighty aura.

Gu Tuo frowned, still disliked the slow speed, and simply stretched out his five fingers and slapped it in the air.

In this instant, Li Xuandu's face was completely old, and he suddenly broke free from the restraint of the long whip transformed by the rattan stick. His body suddenly accelerated, brushing past the palm and barely avoiding it.

When the palm landed, the ground shook violently, and the entire forest was destroyed. A small part of it was destroyed, and a five-finger palm print of more than ten feet appeared, and the palm print was full of cracks.

Gu Tuo's face was calm. He had been calculating time by heartbeats and pulses. It was less than half an incense stick.

The next moment, a figure suddenly came to Gu Tuo's side and punched him. The punch was powerful and powerful, almost moving mountains.

Gu Tuo was caught off guard and could only try to dodge. He was still hit in the chest by a punch and flew backwards like a kite with a broken string.

The person who came was Qin Xiang. He looked at Gu Tuo and said calmly: "I said one incense stick, and you believe it is one incense stick? You are stupid."
