From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Late at night, the moon is full.

On the deserted streets of Lin'an Prefecture, the Great Sun Dharma King of the Wusheng Sect showed unimaginable internal strength, and streams of air rolled around, crushing the stone slabs on the road.

Seeing this scene, Zhou Yuan's scalp was numb. He thought his kung fu was pretty good. If he faced a group of strong men with a sword, he could easily kill them.

Now he realized that his kung fu was just a mediocre one!

"Go! Go quickly! Don't hesitate!"

Zhuang Xuansu was also shocked. She was a real master who could establish a sect wherever she went. At this moment, she felt an inexplicable panic in her heart.

Facing the Great Sun Dharma King, she had no confidence. To be precise, she thought there was no hope of winning. It was just a matter of how long she could hold on.

"Go? Don't be kidding. If I can let you go, my kung fu will be in vain."

The Great Sun Dharma King always spoke lightly and slowly, like a well-educated Confucian scholar.

However, he waved his sleeves, and countless rubble flew up from the broken ground, gathering into a terrible storm, all smashing towards the three people.

The wind was howling, and Zhou Yuan could not care much, so he hugged Qu Ling and protected her in his arms.

Zhuang Xuansu's face changed drastically, and he raised his sword to block. With the flash of the sword, he stopped the large pieces of rubble, and only a few very small pieces of rubble were ejected.

But these rubbles hit Zhou Yuan's back, making him spit blood on the spot, and he felt that his bones were broken.

"Zhou Yuan!"

Qu Ling's face was stained with blood, and she immediately trembled with fear, exclaiming: "Are you okay, Zhou Yuan!"

Zhou Yuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, grimacing in pain, and said with a stiff face: "No time to delay, hurry up, just hold on for half a quarter of an hour."

He raised his head and shouted: "Master Zhuang, no matter what, hold on for half a quarter of an hour."

Zhuang Xuansu's face was happy, because Zhou Yuan's words must mean that there will be rescue in half a quarter of an hour.

But the next moment, her smile froze again. Facing such a powerful Dharma King of the Sun, half a quarter of an hour is too long, and it is not certain that she can endure it.

No matter what, fight!

"You hide!"

She raised the sword, changed to holding the sword with both hands, and the internal force in her body swept, and her long hair was already moving without wind.

The Great Sun Dharma King narrowed his eyes and said, "A trapped beast's fight? Ha, with your skills, you can be a master in other places, but in front of me, you are just like a three-year-old child."

As he spoke, his figure suddenly disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he suddenly appeared in front of Zhuang Xuansu and slapped him with a palm.

The terrifying internal force was like a raging water, simply crushing everything.

"Dragon roars and tiger roars!"

Zhuang Xuansu's face was solemn. With a clear shout, he swung the sword upward with both hands. The long sword trembled and there was actually a sound of dragon roar.

The sword light visible to the naked eye turned into a sky curtain, blocking all the endless internal force of the Great Sun Dharma King.

But because of this, she kept retreating, her face was as pale as gold paper, and finally a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The Great Sun Dharma King frowned and said, "Impossible, with your internal strength, you can't block my full-strength palm. Is this the male and female dragon and tiger sword? Are you from Sichuan?"

Zhuang Xuansu panted and sweated profusely, saying, "You are knowledgeable. If my senior sister was here, you might not be able to beat us."

The Great Sun Dharma King said, "It seems that you practice the female tiger sword, and your senior sister should practice the male dragon sword. If you sisters are in tune with each other, the two swords will be combined into male and female dragon and tiger. I really can't do anything."

"But unfortunately, she is not here!"

While speaking, the Great Sun Dharma King's figure was like a dragon, flying in the air, and the white fan opened, slashing out terrifying internal forces.

Zhuang Xuansu kept dodging, and the ground behind him was constantly cut into gullies by the opponent's internal force. The splashed gravel could definitely kill others easily, but it was easily blocked by Zhuang Xuansu's internal force.

She actually began to flash a light blue glow on her body. Although it was very blurry, it exerted a force that could not be ignored.

"Demon-Subduing Skill?"

Da Ri Dharma King said in a serious tone: "Are you really a direct disciple of Qingcheng Mountain?"

Zhuang Xuansu said: "Are you afraid? If you kill me, Qingcheng Mountain will not let you Wusheng Sect go."

"Hahaha!"

Da Ri Dharma King could not help but laugh wildly: "It's ridiculous. Although Qingcheng Mountain has been passed down for more than a thousand years, it is now just a group of mediocre people. My Wusheng Holy Mother has a great cultivation, her skills are close to Taoism, and she is invincible in the world. Why should I be afraid of you bunch of bull noses?"

"Unless you can revive Zhang Daoling!"

While speaking, he kept sending out palm power. The violent power was like a huge wave in the vast ocean, causing Zhuang Xuansu to retreat one after another, and his whole body was stained with blood.

Her face was pale, and there was only despair in her heart.

Because she knew that what the other party said was right. Unless Master Zhang was resurrected, no one in the world could control Wusheng Sect. This battle tonight, I'm afraid he's going to die.

"Master Zhuang, don't fight hard, retreat quickly!"

Zhou Yuan had already run into the alley in the distance, shouting at the top of his voice.

Zhuang Xuansu, however, had a cold expression on her face. She knew that if she ran away, Zhou Yuan would be in danger.

This man was only eighteen years old, but he had such means. He must be a man of great talent. In time, he would be your Majesty's right-hand man.

Your Majesty worked hard to govern the country, worked tirelessly, and struggled to support the world. Even if I risk my life, I will protect Zhou Yuan for her.

At this point, Zhuang Xuansu had made up her mind, and the internal force in her body kept surging outward, so that her face became ruddy.

The Great Sun Dharma King said coldly: "Your meridians obviously cannot withstand such surging internal force. You are seeking death."

Zhuang Xuansu said coldly: "It is enough to hold you back for another hundred breaths."

The Great Sun Dharma King said: "So what? He is still going to die!"

"Heh!"

Zhuang Xuansu said disdainfully: "You don't know that person. He said half a quarter of an hour, which means that there must be changes after half a quarter of an hour."

The Great Sun Dharma King was silent.

Finally, he sighed softly: "It's a pity that such talents cannot be used by my Holy Church. I can only kill them."

"Forget it, don't waste time. Even if your demon-slaying skills are used to the extreme, it is meaningless. My martial arts have already entered the hall and are not bound by shackles."

His figure was as light as a fallen leaf, floating in front of Zhuang Xuansu, and slapped out with a palm. Before it fell, the ground under Zhuang Xuansu's feet broke.

Her clothes were also destroyed by the powerful force, and endless smoke and dust submerged her.

"Slow down!"

Zhou Yuan rushed out and yelled, "Stop! Dharma King Da Ri! Listen to me!"

Dharma King Da Ri stopped, looked at Zhou Yuan who was running over, narrowed his eyes and said, "I stopped because killing her is of no value. Instead, you are the most important person."

Zhou Yuan glanced at the bloody Zhuang Sizhu, and felt a little sorry in his heart. After all, this trip was too risky. Although he had a trump card, it was not thorough enough.

He took off his coat and put it on Master Zhuang, then raised his head and looked at the Great Sun Dharma King, saying: "If you leave now, I can pretend that nothing happened. There may be opportunities for cooperation in the future."

The Great Sun Dharma King said: "Are you selling your own future? But I don't buy it."

Zhou Yuan hurriedly said: "Okay! Then let's do this! Wait a hundred breaths before you do it!"

"If I can think of a way to save myself in a hundred breaths, I will give you a chance to cooperate with me in the future!"

"If I can't save myself in a hundred breaths, I will listen to you and join the Wusheng Sect."

The Great Sun Dharma King's eyes lit up. This is a sure-win business, and the other party will never be able to think of a way in a hundred breaths.

After all, in the face of absolute force, wisdom is useless.

He immediately said: "Okay! You are also a talent. The Holy Mother may need you, so I will give you this chance to live."

Zhou Yuan was relieved and quickly helped Zhuang Xuansu up, pouring pure internal energy into her body.

Zhuang Xuansu was seriously injured, with broken bones and damaged internal organs. It will probably take at least a few months of recuperation to recover 50%.

"Hold on, Master Zhuang, hold on for another hundred breaths, and don't fall down at this moment."

As soon as the voice fell, Zhou Yuan's hand was tightly grasped.

It was a slender hand with blood.

There was blood in Zhuang Xuansu's eyes, but her eyes were so sharp. She said word by word: "You must live! You must go to see His Majesty! She... She has suffered too much in these years, help her! You must help her!"

Zhou Yuan said in a deep voice: "Hold on, it's not time to leave a will yet!"

Zhuang Xuansu shook his head and smiled bitterly: "I can't do it anymore. It's my blessing to meet you. Otherwise, I can't do anything about the situation in Lin'an."

"Zhou Yuan, I believe you can help His Majesty. When you see His Majesty in the future, tell her that I... will die without regrets."
