The shadow guard laughs at me with a broken sleeve

It is impossible for him to be unaware of the great momentum.

Taking a ten thousand step back, even if it is really the Qing army outside the palace, the Chu army is not a vegetarian.

The king of Chu had countless possibilities in his mind, and he felt that Xue Lang's move was too stupid. Did he want to frighten him with just a few words that were empty, and fled blatantly from his palace?

"Hmph, Xue Lang, I admit that you are a little clever, but that's all. I want you to pay for everything that happened today."

After all, he quickly took out a flare from his arms and released it, blasting a handful of pink in the sky.

Xue Lang didn't stop him, he looked up leisurely, leaned on Yan Li and asked, "Do you like fireworks?"

Yan Li was puzzled, but still answered honestly: "I like it."

Rare things are precious. In the past 20 years, he has only watched fireworks seriously once. Whenever he recalls the unprecedented and splendid scene, the dazzling person under the night is also very clear.

Xue Lang turned his head pretending to be puzzled, and said shamelessly: "You just said that you like me."

"Subordinate..." Yan Li was thin-skinned, and wanted to deny it right away, but when he saw Yan Li's expectant eyes, his heart softened, "There is indeed such a thing."

Xue Lang's smile deepened, and he was still waiting to tease a few more words, but the signal flare that the King of Chu released seemed to have worked, quite quickly.

The shock was triggered from the depths of the palace, became more and more intense, and gradually spread to the place where they were. Many people fell to the ground because of their unsteady legs and feet.

The Chu people who didn't know why panicked again, and someone among them shouted "The ground is cracking", and then the people who were crowded together were like forest birds, and no one cared about the other, and fled in all directions.

"Earthquake! It's an earthquake!"

"Run away!"

Xue Lang squinted at the source, and several subordinates silently surrounded him to prevent him from being hurt by those who fished in troubled waters.

The king of Chu was so angry that he couldn't say a word. He didn't know what he thought of, and his gloomy face suddenly turned pale.

He wanted to take two steps forward, but he walked like a toddler, staggering and nearly falling, so he had no choice but to give up. He raised his head proudly and said to Xue Lang: "Now you kneel down and beg for orphans, maybe orphans will be able to help you!" Let the net out and leave your whole body."

Xue Lang then withdrew his gaze from the distance, looked at King Chu in surprise, and asked, "How do you know what this king wants to say?"

After saying that, he walked up to the King of Chu step by step, lowered his head, closed his eyes and smiled, and said slowly: "But this king will definitely torture you, just as Yin Yang died, his share will also be taken away." Add it to your body."

After speaking, he backed away a few steps, looked at the King of Chu as if he was watching a play, and pondered where to strike the sword best.

The King of Chu's face was so gloomy that he was about to drip, he turned his face away to wait for the reinforcements to arrive, he didn't want to argue with Xue Lang any more, anyway, he would regret his outrageous words in a while.

But he seemed to have forgotten that Xue Lang never fought unprepared battles, and would never give the enemy time to breathe.

"Take it." Xue Lang said lazily.

King Chu's complexion changed again, there were not many people around him.

The result was obvious, the people standing in front of the King of Chu were totally vulnerable. Before the reinforcements arrived, the King of Chu was tied up and lying humiliatingly at Xue Lang's feet.

If it wasn't for the unfavorable terrain, Xue Lang wanted to hang him from a tree.

When the black mass of heads came over, it had to be said that it was very intimidating, but after people saw it clearly, it was more of a fear.

Because the reinforcements that the Chu people were waiting for turned out to be a bunch of puppets with strange faces, covered in dust, as if they had been asleep for a long time.

In Dachu, after the craftsman who was proficient in puppet art made these "puppet armies", he was mercilessly killed by Yin and Yang. The only way to wake them up was the firework carried by the king of Chu.

Only two people in the palace knew about this secret. The King of Chu had been at peace for a long time. He thought he could bury the "puppet army" and dominate the underground. As for why he cherished it so much, of course it was because there was only one firework.

After using it, the "puppet army" will no longer be at the mercy of others, and may even be scrapped directly. This can be said to be King Chu's last trump card. If it hadn't been for being isolated and helpless at this time, he would not have thought of using this army.

Xue Lang's eyebrows widened, but he was very interested. If such an exquisite mechanism can be obtained... how much fun it will be.

He didn't want to use these things to go to war and charge into battle, but just scaring them can scare the enemy's courage.

The "puppet army" is ignorant, even if the arms and legs are knocked off, it does not hinder the movement at all, just like the head of the snake that has been chopped off, it is still entangled endlessly, baring its fangs and rushing forward. Although the number is not huge, it is also very impressive. If Xue Lang was unprepared, he might have stumbled here.

But fireworks, it's not only the King of Chu who has them.

With a half-smile, Xue Lang lowered his eyes to look at the confident King Chu, and then pulled the fuze of the signal flare.

The reason why it has been delayed until now is just to test the skills of his subordinates. It is hard for the king of Chu to be blind and blind to see that he is capable of doing things with ease.

These powerful puppets were no threat to Yan Li. Dressed in white clothes, they fluttered around like butterflies, and they never left Xue Lang's side. The color under that mask was just an imagination, and he felt that there was no other beauty in the world.

With a thought in his mind, Xue Lang hugged Yan Li's waist unexpectedly. The latter was startled suddenly, and his sword turned sharply, almost piercing him. Fortunately, Xue Lang had a strong sense of crisis, so he dodged quickly.

"Master? Did it hurt you?" Yan Li withdrew his sword, terrified in his heart.

Although it is an all-too-familiar breath, the body's subconscious reaction is still to attack. This is a habit he developed when he was a killer, and he has not been able to overcome it until now. He looked at Xue Lang anxiously, and did not forget to kick him one by one. Kick the puppet that took the opportunity to pounce.

Xue Lang didn't speak, his lips were drawn into a straight line, he stepped on the heads of the puppets, dodged the iron claws that were captured, dropped the struggling subordinates, and landed on the rockery with Yan Li in one hand. Really angry.

He thought he was trusted by Yan Li wholeheartedly, but his throat was almost blocked by a sword. It is normal to be angry, but it is mixed with some grievances that he himself does not understand.

He stared at Yan Li seriously, the two were about the same height, Yan Li lowered his head, as if he was going to fall into the mud, and he was about to kneel when he bent his knees, regardless of whether the narrow artificial hill could bear it or not Get up on his knees.

"Subordinates know their mistakes..."

Naturally, he couldn't kneel down. Xue Lang had already made a decision. He would no longer treat Yan Li simply as a subordinate, and he would not need to bow his knees. His Yan Li was an eagle in the sky.

It's just that it is necessary to wake up at the right time, otherwise he is afraid that he will still sleep one day in the future, and there will be an extra sword around his neck.

Xue Lang supported Yan Li with one hand, his face still sinking like water, Yan Li was in a panic, staring at him blankly: "Master."

"What's wrong?"

Yan Li made a slight struggle, and when he met Xue Lang's squinting gaze, he immediately became honest and let both of his wrists be held by him, Xue Lang realized that he had been trembling slightly. .

"The crime committed by the subordinate is a capital crime, and the punishment is up to the master."

Actually aiming the sword point at the master, he is dead, the people trapped in the puppets below feel so deeply, thinking that according to the master's temper, the next moment they should twist the head of the disobedient with bare hands, even if it is the head of the shadow guard No exception.

Only in this way can he be worthy of the master's title of "Killing God".

However, contrary to the imagination, a jaw-dropping scene appeared. Xue Lang actually hugged Yan Li into his arms with his own hands. The gesture seemed to be comforting their omnipotent shadow guard.

Something is wrong, something is wrong with them, something is wrong with us.

Yan Li clenched his hands into fists and pressed them against Xue Lang's chest. His eyes were sore. Just now when Xue Lang asked him if he really wanted to die, he shook his head in a strange way. For the first time in many years following Xue Lang, tears flowed down his face. down.

"No, this subordinate doesn't want to die."

"When did you become greedy for life and afraid of death?" Xue Lang was surprised, his brows were tightly frowned, did he pamper him too much recently?It made him change his temperament, and a person who was fearless in life and death became a coward.

"The subordinate is afraid that he will never see his master again. Master, Yan Li begs you to let this subordinate stay by your side. No matter what punishment the subordinate will accept."

Xue Lang took a deep breath, knowing that he had misunderstood him, and his heart trembled. It turned out that he was the culprit who caused Yan Li to become afraid of death, but he still turned his head away deliberately not to look at those teary eyes, and repeatedly persecuted: "What if the king doesn't agree?"

Yan Li lowered his head helplessly, blinked his eyes, his eyelashes were wet, thinking that he would never have a chance to accompany his master again when he died, he couldn't calm down, his knees were about to knock down again.

It took ten to ten percent of his strength, if he didn't stop him, either the rockery would collapse, or his kneecap would be shattered.

Xue Lang couldn't bear it, he used the same trick to grab the man back into his arms, and sighed: "Forget it, I really lost to you."

"I just want to say 'don't dare again', why are you looking for death?"

"Yanyan, don't cry, I won't scare you anymore, okay?"

"I was wrong, Yanyan~"

Yan Li buried his head on Xue Lang's shoulder little by little, his gorgeous wedding dress was soaked with warm tears, he almost thought that...

"The subordinate made a mistake, and I dare not do it again."

He heard it, and the unprecedented heat in his chest made his voice tremble.

Xue Lang followed his back one by one, and his heart was very hot. If there were not so many people watching, he really wanted to take a closer look at what Lord Yingwei looked like when he cried, but it doesn't matter, there will be opportunities in the future.

Although Lord Shadow Guard was also quite frightened, he still had to ask for the benefits he should ask for.

"as punishment
