Chapter 178 The Phoenix Is Flying
Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly asked Ye Gucheng: "How?"
Ye Gucheng felt his own pulse, and said with a complicated expression: "The toxin has been cleared."
Not only the toxins were removed, but even the body returned to normal.
Lu Xiaofeng hurriedly flattered her, "Cousin is really amazing, it's because I don't know Taishan."
He was also counting on Jiang Xuehan to treat him when he was injured in the future, so he naturally tried his best to flatter Jiang Xuehan, but he was always nice to speak, so Jiang Xuehan just let it go.
Shangguan Mingzhu asked Ye Gucheng curiously: "Why do you have to fight at the top of the Forbidden City? Fortunately, the emperor of the Central Plains has a good temper, otherwise he would have killed you all."
She mentioned this matter when she was chatting with the Emperor of Central Plains, but the Emperor of Central Plains didn't take it seriously, but was a little excited instead.
Ye Gucheng pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, we didn't choose the place."
Jiang Xuehan raised his eyebrows and asked, "How?"
Ye Gucheng replied: "It was the news that Ximen Chuuxue and I would have a decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City first spread in the world, and we decided to fight at the top of the Forbidden City."
Jiang Xuehan suddenly realized that this means that there will be a decisive battle after the rumors, and she couldn't help but ask Ye Gucheng: "Are you afraid of any conspiracy?"
Ye Gucheng said: "I don't care about conspiracy, I just want to fight Ximen Chuuxue."
Ximen Chuuxue said, "I am the same."
Jiang Xuehan understood in seconds that these two people just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to make trouble, and they didn't care about the mastermind behind the scenes.
For this kind of swordsman who is dedicated to swordsmanship, intrigues and tricks are all small ways, and the decisive battle of life and death is the most important thing.
Jiang Xuehan said: "Okay, I hope you all get what you want."
Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng looked at each other, their eyes were full of flames of war.
For a swordsman, the luckiest thing in life is an enemy and confidant who meets his opponent.
Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are like this, A Fei is certainly good, but Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng still think that Ye Gucheng/Ximen Chuuxue is their destined opponent, it may be because of this reason that A Fei will leave alone.
Seeing Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng, he didn't feel envious, so after passing the letter to Jiang Xuehan, he left alone and embarked on a journey to find his destined opponent.
Closer to home, Jiang Xuehan was ready to leave with Yang Qingyue after she finished speaking, but after taking two steps, she turned back and stretched out her hand to Lu Xiaofeng.
Lu Xiaofeng was at a loss: "Cousin, what do you mean?"
Jiang Xuehan said: "Bring me the satin, otherwise how will Qingyue and I go in and have a look?"
Although they can easily cross the Forbidden City, they are good citizens who abide by the law.
Lu Xiaofeng spread her hands, "Cousin, you are one step too late, all the ribbons have been distributed."
"Oh." Jiang Xuehan didn't regret it at all.
Since the formal channels were not available, she had no choice but to climb over the wall.
Lu Xiaofeng was very surprised: "Cousin, why are you so calm?"
Jiang Xuehan said: "The big deal is over the wall."
Lu Xiaofeng smiled sarcastically, took out two ribbons and handed them to her and Yang Qingyue: "How could I have forgotten my cousin and her husband? I was joking just now, hahaha"
Jiang Xuehan looked at Lu Xiaofeng with an awkward smile indifferently, until he couldn't stop laughing, then Shi Shiran left with Yang Qingyue, making Lu Xiaofeng heave a sigh of relief.
"It deserves it." Shangguan Mingzhu said to him.
Lu Xiaofeng jumped, "Why do I deserve it?"
Shangguan Mingzhu looked at him disdainfully, "Who told you to provoke Sister Jiang!"
Lu Xiaofeng: ...He doesn't know who made him provoke him, so the tears he shed now are all the water in his head just now?
Shangguan Mingzhu won the first battle, and she didn't love Zhan, so she clapped her hands and prepared to leave.
Ye Gucheng stood up and said, "I'll see you off."
Before Jiang Xuehan left, he asked him to take care of Shangguan Mingzhu through voice transmission. Jiang Xuehan owed him life-saving grace, so he naturally agreed to her request.
Shangguan Mingzhu was also polite and nodded in agreement.While she's not in any danger walking alone, it's better to have someone to talk to.
After Shangguan Mingzhu and Ye Gucheng left, Ximen Chuuxue was also preparing to leave. Tomorrow was the day of the decisive battle. He still needed to hone his sword intent in order to face Ye Gucheng tomorrow, but this time he was not going to choose Hefangzhai.
Wanmei Villa has a lot of properties in the capital city. There is no Hefangzhai and other restaurants. The reason why he chooses Hefangzhai is just because he likes to eat pastries.
Lu Xiaofeng saw Ximen Chuixue raised his legs and left, and hurriedly shouted: "Ximen, wait for me."
September [-]th, at the gate of the Forbidden City
Under the arrangement of the Ouchi guards, the six Jianghu people with ribbons walked into the Forbidden City in an orderly manner. The whole process went smoothly and unbelievably smoothly. There were no extra ribbons, no Jianghu people who came to make trouble, and no one came to make trouble Even Lu Xiaofeng himself felt as if he was in the clouds, but Jiang Xuehan didn't relax because of this. On the contrary, she thought that the calmer now means the rougher the waves ahead.
"Why do I always feel flustered?" Lu Xiaofeng obviously felt the same way as Jiang Xuehan.
Wei Ziyun, the head of the Ouchi guards, laughed at him, "Lu Xiaofeng, why are you panicking? Does anyone dare to behave wildly in the Forbidden City?"
Jiang Xuehan really wanted to tell the young head of the guards that those who wanted to rebel dared to act wildly in the Forbidden City, but because Wei Ziyun was quickly called away, Jiang Xuehan couldn't say this reminder after all, and he could only regret it in the end He was guided by the Ouchi guards to the competition site, which is the legendary summit of the Forbidden City.
Although the emperor didn't mind the competition between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng in the Forbidden City, it was impossible for the Ouchi guards not to mind the hidden dangers brought about by this decisive battle, so today's Forbidden City has five steps, one post, ten steps and one whistle, and almost every one holds a satin The people from the rivers and lakes are accompanied by two Ouchi guards, but these people from the rivers and lakes don't care, because seeing the contest between two peerless swordsmen is more important than these details.
On the roof of the majestic hall, Ximen Chuixue and Ye Gucheng confronted each other with swords in their arms.
Ximen Chuuxue said: "This sword is the sharpest weapon in the world. The blade is three feet and seven inches, and the net weight is seven catties and 13 taels." [1]
Ye Gucheng also said: "This sword belongs to the elite of overseas cold swords. It blows hair and breaks hair. The sword's edge is three feet three, and the net weight is six catties and four taels."【2】
Wei Ziyun sighed: "They are rare good swords."
Lu Xiaofeng said, "It's not the best."
He had the honor to see Yang Qingyue's Sword in the Qin, that sword was the best among swords, but Yang Qingyue seldom used the sword.
Wei Ziyun is also a swordsman, but today he rarely asked Lu Xiaofeng about the sword, because the competition between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng started.
Under everyone's expectant eyes, Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng moved.
Their figures were fast, and there was only silver light shining between the long swords.Those with a little lack of eyesight might only be able to see countless afterimages and flickering sword lights, but Jiang Xuehan was obviously not.
She said: "Axel is a little bit inferior."
Wei Ziyun was a little surprised, he didn't expect this young woman to be able to see clearly?But he agrees with her very much, although Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng seem to be evenly matched, but experienced people know that Ximen Chuuxue is still a little bit worse.
Jiang Xuehan murmured: "It's still a bit late!"
Just when several people were lamenting that Ximen Chuuxue was going to lose, something happened suddenly. Someone in the auditorium escaped Ouchi's guards and shot countless silver needles at Ye Gucheng.
Just looking at the silver needles all over the sky, Jiang Xuehan and Yang Qingyue knew that this must be the Tang Sect's Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle. The frequency of the Rainstorm Pear Blossom Needle has been so high recently that Jiang Xuehan began to suspect that this so-called Tang Sect's top hidden weapon , Could it be something rotten on the street?
However, doubts are doubts, Jiang Xuehan still wants to save Ye Gucheng, after all, this is also her cousin!
With a flick of her long silk, the silver needles that were going straight to Ye Gucheng were wrapped in the ribbon, and Ye Gucheng himself turned a blind eye to all of this, he didn't hide when the silver needles came, and he didn't hide when the silver needles went. He didn't move, he only had the sword in his eyes, and Ximen Chuuxue was the same.
These two people fought with each other, and they didn't mean to release water because of their friendship at all. Instead, they all moved towards each other's deadly parts. What Lu Xiaofeng saw was frightening, and he said to Jiang Xuehan: "Cousin, you must watch the timing Save them!"
Jiang Xuehan shook his head, "This time is different from last time."
Before Lu Xiaofeng had time to question the difference, Ye Gucheng's long sword had already reached Ximen Chuuxue's throat one step ahead.
"Simon..."
Ximen Chuuxue fell down, his white sleeves were stained red with blood, but it could be seen from the corners of his slightly drawn mouth.He didn't regret this battle; he didn't regret this death either, even between life and death, he realized another level of sword intent, but it's a pity that he was about to die.
Ye Gucheng looked at the fallen Ximen Chuuxue, his eyes were rarely stained with sadness.
At this moment, Jiang Xuehan jumped up and walked straight to the top of the Forbidden City. She held a green pill in her hand and wiped it on Ximen Chuixue's neck, and the blood mark on Ximen Chuixue's throat disappeared without a trace. The magic of the process was seen clearly only by Ye Gucheng, because Jiang Xuehan deliberately turned his body sideways to block the sight of everyone below.
Those people could only see that Jiang Xuehan seemed to have done something, and then Ximen Chuuxue stood up slowly.
All the people watching the battle: ... what happened?
Ximen Chuuxue didn't care about their thoughts, he looked straight at Ye Gucheng and said, "I just hope to fight again."
"Okay!" Ye Gucheng nodded.
Jiang Xuehan sighed, it seems that most of the swordsmen are desperate.
"Alas..." Lu Xiaofeng sighed.
He was clearly terrified just now, but now he didn't say anything to stop him, which shows that he is really an excellent friend.
The author has something to say: From my personal point of view, I feel that being Lu Xiaofeng's friend will be very happy, but being his lover is not necessarily the case. After all, he is a prodigal son. On this point, I feel that he is similar to Chu Liuxiang.In addition, in the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City, Ye Gucheng did not rebel, and Ximen Chuuxue did not have Sun Xiuqing, so Ximen Chuuxue did not beat Ye Gucheng, but the author also cheated on cousin Axue, allowing him to understand another level between life and death Sword Intent, arrange for the heroine to save him, proper mother~
