In the era when Qingyou Pavilion ruled the rivers and lakes, Peach Blossom Valley was also a force that surrendered to Qingyou Pavilion. Peach Blossom Valley, who was proficient in illusion, also played an indispensable role in the decisive battle between Qingyou Pavilion and the Blood Jade Sect.

But "People in Peach Blossom Valley have always lived in seclusion. It took months for the people of the Blood Jade Sect to find the entrance. We only have a few days to waste. Is it really okay?" Jian Qing caught up with Yu Ji, somewhat asked worriedly.

"Brother may have information there." Yu Ji didn't slow down, "Actually, 'Nightingale' was established jointly by the ancestors and the young lady of Peach Blossom Valley. There may be information about Peach Blossom Valley at the headquarters. Senior brother for many years Lai has been on standby at the headquarters, and may have dug up some clues."

"But the brother's letter said that he hasn't found the entrance to Peach Blossom Valley, just in case..." Jian Qing was a little worried.

"Then let's see how big of a fuss we want to make." Yu Ji deliberately let it go, and saw Jian Qing's puzzled expression from the side. The owner of the valley sent someone to respond, but the whereabouts revealed that we might have to face the killer sent by Xiao Qinghan first. The best strategy is to ask for directions, but there may not be enough time. As for the best strategy... there are many kinds of phantom flowers in Peach Blossom Valley, we can Go to a Gu master to buy a Xunxiangdie, let Xunxiangdie who specializes in looking for magic flowers lead the way, but it is Peach Blossom Valley after all, they have considered this situation, so there must be other magic flowers around as interference, it takes a while Check everywhere."

"So there really is a Gu Master..." Jian Qing sighed leisurely after hearing this.

Yu Ji was amused, and laughed out loud, "You've seen spiritual masters and wizards, of course there are such common professions as Gu masters."

Ordinary... Jian Qing silently doubted herself in her heart.

When I saw the spirit art, I didn't think it was weird. The effect of Yu Ji's control system spirit art is actually similar to that of using Qi to control things in the martial arts.Although, it seems that for the martial arts of the Central Plains, controlling objects with qi is a very high level, but for spiritual masters, controlling the spirit is just one of the common moves.The little wizard didn't even show any unusual moves.

I always feel that a Gu master is a little bit beyond Jian Qing's understanding... After all, how do people control those bugs?

In the next few days, although they would not travel day and night, but this time on the way from Luoyang to Chenzhou, Jian Qing clearly felt that Yu Ji was nervous.

They were still chatting and laughing when they first left Luoyang, but the closer they got to the Yangtze River, Yu Ji became more careful and vigilant, often the two barely spoke a few words at the end of the day.

But Jian Qing could understand that it wasn't that Yu Ji didn't want to talk to her, but that something was really going to happen.

At this moment, he finally boarded the boat across the river, but Yu Ji was obviously more vigilant.

"From Luoyang to Chenzhou, passing through Dongting Lake is the shortest route, right? Why do we deliberately bypass the towns around Dongting Lake?" Jian Qing asked to ease the atmosphere, but also had doubts in her heart.Obviously in a hurry, but the route these days is obviously deviated from the direction.

"Nightingale's headquarter is in Yuezhou, and the Dongting area is the core of Xiao Qinghan's power." Yu Ji replied simply.

It wasn't until this time that Jian Qing remembered something that had been neglected all the time. Xiao Qinghan wanted to kill them in Youzhou. Even with Master Ling Ying's people around, didn't their journey go too smoothly?

As if he understood Jian Qing's doubts, Yu Ji took the initiative to explain: "The three major killer organizations have their own territories, and they usually don't go to war within each other's territory, so Xiao Qinghan dare not send too many people out to chase us down. , we can only mobilize people who are already nearby to wait for the opportunity to carry out the assassination. However, when we went to Lingzhou, we took a step ahead everywhere. We solved Xiao Qinghan's people, so we didn't expose him. The old lady's people left when they arrived in Youzhou. At that time, I deliberately provoked innocent people to deal with Xiao Qinghan. They didn't care about us, but it was also an uncertain factor for Xiao Qinghan's people, so they didn't do anything. It's just that the two of them stayed in Luoyang, so we deliberately took advantage of the crowds to take the main road and live in crowded shops during this section of the road , making it difficult for Xiao Qinghan to make a move."

"There is such a thing!" Jian Qing didn't notice the secret movements along the way at all. It seemed that she was far from enough as a killer.

"However," Yu Ji, who stood at the bow of the boat and looked at the other side, said in a low voice, "We will soon have to fight head-on." While speaking, his right hand was already pressed on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw his sword at any time.

The boat approached the shore little by little, and after crossing the Yangtze River, it was Nightingale's territory, and there must be a bloody storm waiting for them.

The three major assassin organizations are capable of calling the wind and rain in almost the entire north of the Yangtze River, Diemeng is entrenched in the northwest border, and Nightingale is in charge of Jiangnan West Road and Jiangnan East Road.

Therefore, unless they took a detour on the Qianzhong Road, it was impossible to go to Chenzhou to bypass Nightingale's territory.However, Qianzhong Road is located between Miaojiang and Nanjiang, and the terrain is also poor and rough. If you take a detour there, you will encounter even more difficult situations.

In fact, they just bypassed Dongting Lake, but they still landed within the scope of Jiangnan West Road.

"Boater, thank you." Jian Qing thanked, but suddenly a bright light dazzled her eyes.

"Zheng!" Iron objects collided with each other, making an ear-piercing friction sound.

"Plop" something small fell into the river, and the boat shook violently.

Jian Qing's eyes dazzled by the strong light only recovered a little bit, and she felt that the boat under her feet was about to capsize, so she had to bend down and hold on tightly to the side of the boat.

"Jian Qing, are you okay?" It was Yu Ji's voice.

Jian Qing raised her head, and Yu Ji's hand was in front of her eyes when she regained her vision.Dark Souls had already been unsheathed, and the boatman fell into the cabin, seemingly passed out.

In fact, Jian Qing understood, just now when she thanked the boatman, the boatman took out a short knife from the coir raincoat.It was the sunlight reflected by the dagger that dazzled Jian Qing's eyes. No matter whether the boatman wanted to kill Jian Qing or take her as a hostage, Yu Ji threw the knife away before he succeeded.

"Yeah." Jian Qing has calmed down, the boat is not shaking so much, she stretched out her left hand to hold Yu Ji's hand, but suddenly changed direction, "Be careful!"

The voice of the reminder has not yet landed, and the silver sleeve arrow has been shot.

"Qiang" the sleeve arrow was blocked by the person who jumped over.

"Zheng..." Dark Clouds intercepted the opponent's blade.

Yu Ji's wrist holding the sword slightly turned an angle, "click" and "shua", the blade in the opponent's hand was cut off by Dark Clouds in an instant, and half of the blade flew out and fell into the water.

The man obviously didn't realize that there was such a possibility. The moment the knife was broken, the center of gravity where the sword was touching before disappeared, and the hand that was pressing down on the knife had no time to retract the strength, and the whole person rushed forward.

Yu Ji just pulled Jian Qing to take a step aside, and avoided the half-cut knife that the man threw down when he fell down.

With one step, Yu Ji jumped onto the shore with Jian Qing.

"There must be someone else." Although Jian Qing didn't know how many people were on the opposite side, she had noticed a few who couldn't hide their murderous aura.However, it wasn't until he said it that he realized that Yu Ji naturally didn't need her to remind him of such an obvious thing.

"En." Yu Ji responded, the moment his feet stepped on the ground, he let go of Jian Qing's left hand, and his steps were already heading towards the killers who came out from the shadow of the house.

Dark Clouds reflected the sunlight, and the bright white light swirled and danced, not a drop of blood.Those who tried to assassinate them had their weapons destroyed.

"Does Xiao Qinghan think highly of you all, or do you look down on me too much? Why are you here?" Yu Ji lifted the dagger of the last person, flipped his wrist, and held the sword behind his back.

At this moment, Jian Qing can carefully count how many people there are, a total of thirty and six people, who were murderous a moment ago, but now they have lost all momentum.What happened just now?It seems that Yu Ji just swept the cloud sword very simply, and all the people who rushed up at the beginning dropped their weapons, and after hanging up and swinging, the few who were trying to hide behind the forward also dropped their armor and armor.But Yu Ji just took a few steps to get out of their encirclement, and then seemingly casually swiped his sword a few times to end the battle.

"Hmph." One person was holding his arm, very dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to go forward, "Huajie Meigui, you're just a kid!"

"Oh," Yu Ji lowered his head and chuckled, casting cold eyes on the speaker, "It seems that she looks down on me. She doesn't think that after the showdown with her, I am still the one who can be bullied by you at will. child?"

"Do you think you are very powerful?" Another person spoke this time, "The leader just wants us to tell you a piece of news. The traitor 'Ling' has been captured and locked in the leader's dungeon."

"Master?" Yu Ji's eyes loosened. All the plans for this journey were based on the three-month period given by the master. If the master was arrested at this moment, then they might not be able to successfully recast the dark spirit.

"Yu Ji." Jian Qing approached, "Be careful they are delaying time." Although Jian Qing's kung fu is not as good as Yu Ji's, since the battle in Lingzhou City, she has gradually used observation of the battle situation, making timely strikes, and calmness. The role of judgment.

Yu Ji flipped his right wrist again, held Dark Clouds again, pointed his sword at the person who said this just now, "What does Xiao Qinghan want? She could have killed us directly, but she wanted to stay for a while. Since she asked You sent a message, did you tell you what she wants me to do?"

"Dark Spirit Sword." The person who was asked really answered, "The leader said, with your little spiritual power, if you want to learn how to make a sword from Linglong, you will only die if you exhaust your spiritual power. In the end, both Dark Dark Souls and the other side will belong to the leader." gone."

how come?

Jian Qing looked sideways at Yu Ji anxiously.Although she had heard that the spirit sword would instantly absorb the spiritual power of all creatures in a certain space when quenching blood, Jian Qing had never thought about whether Yu Ji's spiritual power was enough or not because there were successful examples there.

"So that's how it is." Yu Ji just smiled coldly, "Either give up on Dark Clouds and go directly to save Master, and then be chopped off by Xiao Qinghan. Or recast Dark Clouds and release him with the sword with one hand and with the other?"

After all, if Xiao Qinghan was sure that Yu Ji would die, she wouldn't need to keep Ling Ying as a hostage.

Moreover, if Xiao Qinghan's purpose was to take advantage of the situation to loot, and take such a big advantage of the Dark Soul Sword, it would also explain why all the soldiers he sent were vulnerable miscellaneous soldiers.

"Hmph, it's your honor to be able to forge a sword for the leader." He was clearly Yu Ji's defeated general, but he said a few words unforgivingly.

Yu Ji just put the sword back into its sheath, and left a sentence: "I will recast Dark Souls, but not for her, Xiao Qinghan, but because of Master's order."

A gust of wind blew by, and the veil of Yu Ji's blue dress fluttered slightly.The two sides suddenly fell silent, and the atmosphere seemed a little weird.
