Spring mountain night belt knife

Chapter 24

Ruan Shui's light-colored eyes stared at Yue in puzzlement.

This man stood brightly in the corridor, holding a sword in one hand, shaking his usual laziness, standing upright like a green pine on a towering cliff, but there was still a smile on his lips.

The first to attack was the giant poisonous corpse of Qin Xinjing. They moved extremely fast, and with the help of the power of totem, they suddenly surrounded Yue Pujie.

The angle of Yue Pujie's lips remained undiminished, and her steps were staggered, easily walking among the poisonous corpses, avoiding their heavy attacks.At the time of action, the crimson purple robes rise and fall into flowers, and one after another the sword lights are extinguished like snow, and when you stand still, it turns out that one sword turns into thousands of shadows, and the chilling kills come one after another.

When the sword light landed, it looked light and slow, like a flying scorpion, but it cut off the long shadow cast by the stone statue on the ground in an instant, cut off the strange smoke that diffused through the corridor, and cut off the rotting body of the low-level poisonous corpse.

Seven or eight corpses fell to the ground, and the sounds fell on the same beat. Yue Pujie raised his hand and pulled out a sword flower, facing the poisonous corpse in Qianyuan Realm.

Such a figure is indeed unfamiliar, but the sword intent pouring out like flowing water is absolutely unmistakable.In this world, it is impossible for two different people to have the same sword intent.

He could almost conclude that this man drinking alone among the flowers and wondering about the moon was Yuan Xiaohan, the former Prime Minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty.

Ruan Xun looked at the person in front of him with no emotion in his eyes.

The prime ministers of the Northern Zhou Dynasty never left the imperial capital.But Ruan Shui was different. He was an assassin in the past, and he was still the best assassin in the world. He worked for the royal family and naturally carried out missions at the national level.

Before the Battle of Pingling, Ruan Xun went to the Northern Zhou Dynasty's imperial capital twice.These two times, through the window or through the door, they met Yuan Xiaohan, the Prime Minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty at that time.

In terms of war strategy, this Yuan Xiaohan met him at chess, and they fought several times, but they all ended in a tie. He was naturally very curious about this person.

But at that time, Ruan Lu was on a mission, so he didn't have time to investigate carefully, and he came and went in a hurry both times, so the impression Yuan Xiaohan gave him was only on the eight words "high above" and "loyalty to the emperor and patriotism".

If it wasn't for the Battle of Pingling, Yuan Xiaohan's natal sword would have come thousands of miles away. He almost thought that in his entire life, he would only compete with this person in martial arts on the Jianghu Billboard.

That time, although Ruan Xun was defeated, he didn't think he had lost completely. The reason why Yuan Xiaohan's sword could hit him was entirely because his attention was on the lord of Pingling City at that time.

But now, Ruan Xun has a new understanding of this person.He felt that he might really be no match for this person, after all, he was shameless and invincible.

When Yue Yue's puzzled true identity surfaced, it was enough to dispel Ruan Xun's doubts about the relationship between him and the Ruan family. However, the most critical question still remained unresolved: why did this person come to pester him, and what to do? Show a genuine concern for him.

Ruan Shui lowered his eyes—Han Lutian's scabbard, other than that, he couldn't think of any other reason.

Hanlutian is an ancient divine knife, and the divine power remains on the scabbard. This can not only awaken the sacred artifacts of the Four Holy Families that have been sleeping for many years, but also transform it into spiritual power, nourishing the water and soil, and promoting the cultivation of practitioners among them.It was for this reason that the Ruan family was able to become the head of all the aristocratic families in the Chen Dynasty within a hundred years.

Such things are secretly coveted by the Four Holy Families. If the royal family finds out, they will definitely have evil intentions—which emperor doesn’t want to live forever?

Although Yuan Xiaohan was no longer the Prime Minister of the Northern Zhou Dynasty, it was impossible for him to completely cut off his ties with the royal family. Maybe this person resigned from the position of Prime Minister in order to go south to Jinling and find him who was fused with Han's open-air scabbard.

Ruan Xun frowned inconspicuously, but after a while, he breathed a sigh of relief.

Han Lutian's scabbard has already fused with him, so it's not an exaggeration to say that he is that scabbard now, if Yuan Xiaohan really came for the scabbard, his fate would be death.

Compared to this bastard, he is indeed inferior to this bastard, but with his physical strength and the martial arts skills he has cultivated in his decades of assassin career, he can still kill him.

After turning his mind a few times, in front of the corridor, the crimson-clothed figure had easily dealt with three poisonous corpses in the Qianyuan realm, and walked towards the last poisonous corpse in the phaseless realm.

This poisonous corpse is different from the previous ones. The weapon it holds is more exquisite and superior. It is a long sword shrouded in mist. To assist, he is very good at timing.

"If it wasn't for being too ugly, I really want to take this thing back and make use of it." Yue Puzzling—no, he should be called Yuan Xiaohan—turned around and smiled at Ruan Xun as a joke Generally speaking.

Ruan Shui gently raised his eyelids, and did not speak, but his eyes were cold.

The Phaseless Realm Poison Corpse stood calmly on the spot, staring directly at the other end of the corridor with empty eyes, raised its finger and ejected a burst of energy, like black flowing fire, extremely strange, and blatantly attacked Yuan Xiaohan.

This person seemed to have never heard of it, and the laziness returned to his body. After shrugging his shoulders at Ruan Xun, he asked curiously: "What's wrong with you? Is the totem here making you uncomfortable?"

Ruan Xun didn't answer, he continued on his own: "Wait a minute, I'll blow up this place right away."

While speaking, the cloud of strange black gaseous flames was already approaching, and the air waves set off the corners of the purple clothes and long black hair, but the man still had his eyes bent, blinked at Ruan Xun, and then raised his hand and crossed his sword.

After a while, Yuan Xiaohan turned half a step sideways, turning his wrist.Haohao Yuanli burst out from the edge of the black sword, like a gust of wind sweeping the fallen leaves, and swayed in the corridor behind him, forcing the black air current to disperse, forcing the Phaseless Realm Poison Corpse to retreat several steps.

At this time, the totems on both sides of the corridor suddenly lit up, and several tall figures rushed out one after another—the reinforcements arrived, but the direction was not Yuan Xiaohan, but Ruan Xun who had been standing behind.

The newcomers were three Qianyuan Realm and one Phaseless Realm, and after moving slightly, they formed a formation with the Poisonous Corpse of the Phaseless Realm opposite Yuan Xiaohan.

With the power of the totem and the power of the formation, the viciousness of the poisonous corpses increased greatly.

Around Ruan Xun, the Phaseless Realm Poison Corpse took the lead, and the other three shot arrows from behind. When he was about to draw his saber, Yuan Xiaohan's eyelids twitched, and he flew back immediately. And rise.The sword energy rained arrows all over the sky, and by the way, the shoulders of the leader of the Phaseless Realm poisonous corpse were cut off.

"I didn't expect that the tomb-robbing skills of the survivors of the Xinyi tribe are so good." Yuan Xiaohan protected Ruan Xun, mocking with a low smile.

The cave master didn't answer.

The poisonous corpse from the Phaseless Realm on the other side came rushing forward, and the strange mist wrapped around the sword body was even worse, which complemented the blue mist that kept pouring in here.

Ruan Xun raised his eyes, but soon, Yuan Xiaohan's hand covered her.

"Don't move, don't look at it, this situation is very strange, I'm afraid it will suck the soul." Yuan Xiaohan said.

Unmoved, Ruan Xun slapped the man's paw away.Yuan Xiaohan sighed helplessly, and stuffed a medicine into his mouth.The pill melted in his mouth, and Ruan Xun had no time to react.

In an instant, a sense of coolness diffuses in the internal organs, travels through the twelve meridians, clears the heart and calms the mind.He heard Yuan Xiaohan say again: "What I practiced last night is medicine and not poison, it has the effect of calming the mind and guarding the soul."

Ruan Xun opened his mouth, wanting to say thank you, but found it extremely awkward to say such words to the prime minister, Yuan Xiaohan, so he just kept silent.

What Yuan Xiaohan did was not to thank Ruan Xun, but at this moment, he was a little distracted.

This person is quite huggable, Yuan Xiaohan thought.

But Ruan Xun didn't think being hugged was very good. After glancing at Yuan Xiaohan's hand clasped around his waist, he raised the knife and slapped the paw away mercilessly.

Then he took a step diagonally, raised his sword and cut down the second wave of arrows.

Ruan Xun is dexterous and has a good foundation in martial arts. He is so fast that he can hardly catch them with the naked eye.

Yuan Xiaohan looked at him and smiled softly.

Then he tilted his head, raised his sword, and slashed in the air.The sword light passed, split the dome, and hit the big poisonous corpse in the Wuxiang Realm who was about to attack Ruan Xun.

Another Wuxiangjing stood three feet behind Yuan Xiaohan, and was about to flick his fingers again to cast a spell, when he saw this person's sleeves fluttered, his energy dispersed, and a strong gust of wind blew up again, quickly blowing the poisonous corpse forced back.

This is not over yet, the next moment, he let go of the long sword in his hand and said "go".The black sword turned into a stream of light, spinning at high speed and piercing the head of the Phaseless Realm poisonous corpse.

This person seems to prefer dark purple, the blade is black and the hilt is pitch black, but the fringe on the fringe of the sword reveals a faint purple brilliance.

The purple awns outlined a shallow arc in the void, like the traces of a butterfly's wings. When it disappeared, the head of the poisonous corpse turned into flying smoke and shattered in the air. The huge body fell to the ground with a dull sound .

In fulfillment of the promise made to Ruan Xun just now, the totems on the stone walls and dome on both sides of the corridor all fell off after that.

When Ruan Xun retracted his knife and turned his head, he happened to see such a situation. The stone chips were flying and the stone statue collapsed, as if after a heavy rain.

The third level of Great Perfection in the Phaseless Realm is only one step away from the Great Purity Realm.Ruan Xun lowered his eyes and made an evaluation of Yuan Xiaohan in his heart.

Sure enough, the hundred years of imprisonment had widened the gap between him and his opponents back then.

On the other side, Yuan Xiaohan made a grabbing gesture, and the long sword flew back immediately and fell firmly into the palm of his hand.

He walked up to Ruan Xun, tilted his head slightly, looked from bottom to top, looked into Ruan Xun's lowered light-colored eyes, and said with a smile: "Could it be that you are overwhelmed by my heroic figure? "

Ruan Xun raised his eyelids and met Uehara Xiaohan's eyes.The bloodstains from the man's claws just now are still there, but it doesn't look funny and ugly, but instead adds a bit of unruly and free and easy to him, like a deliberately painted decoration.

He moved the man's face away with the handle of the knife expressionlessly, and walked forward.

"Our Ruan Xiaolu's thoughts are really hard to guess." Yuan Xiaohan said slowly behind Ruan Xiaohan in a drawn-out tone.

Ruan Xun found that the man's flute was still in his hand, and immediately threw it back, "Speak up, who is you Ruan Xiaoxun."

"You." Yuan Xiaohan was extremely shameless.

The totem was destroyed, and the strange power that was pressing on Ruan Li's soul disappeared, and even breathing was much easier.

Ruan Xun quickened his pace, and Yuan Xiaohan, who was beside him, started to talk again.

The man said: "I remember that decades ago, you Chen Chao had many cases where the bodies of deceased practitioners in the Wuxiang Realm and Qianyuan Realm were stolen, but the murderer was never found. I think the murderer is probably The one hiding here."

Ruan Shang's tone was neither salty nor weak: "Oh."

"You're not surprised?" Yuan Xiaohan raised his eyebrows.

"Why should I be surprised?" Ruan Xun's expression remained unchanged, his face was still frozen, expressionless.

Yuan Xiaohan raised his hand to support his chin, rolled his eyes, and asked tentatively: "Could it be that you don't know about this?"

Ruan Xun didn't answer, but Yuan Xiaohan found the answer from his slightly changing expression.

The man began to be surprised: "This matter was a sensation. Even I, who was far away in the Northern Zhou Dynasty, knew it clearly, but you didn't know it? It shouldn't be. Hey, Ruan Xiaolu, what were you doing then?"

Ruan Xunwu stopped in his tracks, slowly raised his eyes, stared at Yuan Xiaohan, and said two words: "Guess."
