"There are assassins—"

At ten o'clock at noon, a sharp shout came from the deep courtyard.

Zhang Wenyan still kept lying on the ground, his eyes widened in astonishment.

At the same time, Qingfeng quickly retreated with Feng Xuexue's waist in his arms, the light of the saber followed closely, wrapped in the sharp wind of the saber, and slashed down vertically against Qingfeng's chest!

Xuan Qing missed a blow, and in a split second, Qing Feng jumped up the wall with the wind and snow, and ran towards the outside of the courtyard.

A large group of guards came following the sound, as if they had been prepared for a long time, they lined up neatly and orderly in two rows, surrounding the two of them.

"Put me down." Feng Cuixue was tightly held by Qingfeng's waist, seeing that Qingfeng didn't move, so he urged: "Could it be that you plan to beat them with one hand?"

"Why not?" Qingfeng asked back in a low voice, holding the wind and snow in his right hand, holding the sword in his left hand, using the scabbard to resist the blade that Xuanqing cut off.A majestic sword intent surged from the sword body, and the guards who were close were knocked down by this sword intent before they could defend themselves.

Feng Zuixue: "..."

Xuan Qing's pupils suddenly constricted, this sword intent was particularly powerful, and the opponent... didn't even draw his sword!

There was a hole in the formation, Qingfeng took the opportunity to break through the defense with the wind and snow, jumped on the roof in two or three steps, and left outside the city lord's mansion.

"Of course not!" Feng Cuixue said in shock: "Why are you alone in the limelight!"

"..." Qingfeng said: "Okay, it will be you next time. But now we have to leave quickly, so as not to convene more people."

Qingfeng was still carrying someone in his arms, but he was still going very fast, the guards missed the opportunity and couldn't catch up again.Only Xuan Qing was able to catch up to the two of them, he exhausted all his spiritual power to chase them, pinched his left hand, and a light lock flew out from his sleeve, entangled the snow towards the wind.

Xuanqing was afraid of Qingfeng's advanced cultivation, and seeing Feng Cuixue being protected by Qingfeng in his arms all the time, with a trace of sickly paleness on his outstanding face, he subconsciously thought that Feng Cuixue was a drag bottle brought by Qingfeng, and resolutely Resolutely picked this 'soft persimmon' to start with.

Of course, Feng Cuixue is not a "soft persimmon", and Qingfeng will not be easily grasped by others.Before Xuanqing's light lock touched the wind and snow, it was defeated by a wave of spiritual power and shattered into light powder.

Xuan Qing wanted to make another decision, but saw that Qingfeng's footsteps in front of him suddenly slowed down.

Qingfeng turned sideways, looking at Xuanqing with a cold killing intent.

Three figures stood on the eaves, and the north wind blew up Qingfeng's robe.Qingfeng let go of Feng Juxue, blocked Feng Juxue behind him, stared coldly at Xuan Qing, and drew out his sword.

"Who are you?" Xuan Qing lifted his toes off the ground and swung his saber up.

"Let go of him and let me come!" Feng Zhuxue finally waited for the opportunity, and excitedly pushed Qingfeng away, "How can you do this kind of handsome thing by yourself?"

Pushed by the wind and snow, the hostility in Qingfeng's eyes dissipated a lot in an instant, and he was stunned for a moment.

Xuan Qing sneered, "Looking for death."

At the next moment, Xuan Qing met a pair of smiling eyes, and at the moment of eye contact, Xuan Qing suddenly realized that he seemed to have misunderstood something.

However, it was too late to react now, the piercing sword energy was rushing straight towards Xuanqing's face like the wind, at this speed, before Xuanqing could hurt the opponent, the opponent's sword could cut him in half .

Xuanqing hastily withdrew his saber, and dangerously blocked Feng Zuixue's sword strike.It's not easy to retract the half-swinged knife, even if Xuan Qing reluctantly retracted it, his chest was throbbed by the backlash of the spiritual energy, and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood.

In the blink of an eye, Xuan Qing and Feng Cuixue had already gone through several tricks.Xuan Qing found that the opponent didn't seem to use spiritual energy, and his moves were all based on force, but even so, every step of the killer move forced him back again and again.What's even more strange is that the other party didn't know what technique he used, but between the moves, he faintly suppressed his aura, making it impossible for him to display it.

The two went through a few more moves, and the sound of chaotic footsteps came from all directions, which should be other guards rushing over.Xuanqing's blade made an inaudible sound, and he took a closer look, and at some point, the blade was densely covered with cracks like spider webs!

Xuan Qing raised his eyes and met the smiling eyes of the other party.

Feng Zuixue curled her lips slightly, "What did you just say?"

Xuan Qing's eyes moved down, and his eyes fell on Feng Zhuxue's magnificent sword hilt inlaid with white jade, he paused slightly, then raised his eyes to look at Feng Zhuxue again, this time, there was a hint of subtlety in his eyes.

This glance quickly made Feng Cuixue aware of something strange.

at the same time--

"The assassins are there! Catch them!" Several spirit-bound locks shone faintly and came towards the two from a distance. Qingfeng squeezed between his fingers, and an invisible barrier was erected in front of the two of them, and all the light locks collapsed.

Xuanqing pushed Feng Cuixue back with the posture of the two of them meeting swords, and at the same time whispered in Feng Cuixue's ear: "Let's go."

Feng Zuixue: "?"

A group of monks in green clothes came from all directions. Seeing that the situation was not good, Qingfeng pushed the wind into his arms, stepped over several eaves, and quickly disappeared among the layers of pines and cypresses.

Xuanqing didn't chase after him any more, and the rest of the monks quickly lost track of him, so they had to go back and forth.

"Stop chasing?" someone asked.

Xuan Qing didn't answer, he lowered his head and looked at the knife in his hand calmly.

Only the person holding the knife can hear the humming of the blade, which is the sad moan of the blade because it is not bearing its heavy load.

After a while, the blade made a slight cracking sound, followed by a series of cracking sounds, and the fine cracks on the blade gradually expanded and split.

With a "bang", the bright blade completely shattered, exploding like a large snowflake, and scattered on the ground shining with silver light.

The monks who were close all took a breath, who is the assassin?How could Xuan Qing's sword be destroyed like this?

This scene happened to be seen by Huo Xian who came over, Huo Xian's eyes flashed with surprise, "Didn't the assassin catch it?"

Xuan Qing was about to make an apology, but when he saw Gong Yunting beside Huo Xian, he swallowed back the words of apology, and said in a low voice: "I didn't notice that someone came in and disturbed the city lord."

Gong Yunting asked suspiciously: "The assassin is here to assassinate the city lord? Is the city lord okay?"

Xuan Qing said: "The assassin discovered it in time, and the city lord is fine."

"That's good." Gong Yunting nodded, suddenly thought of something, looked up at Huo Xian beside her, "Speaking of which, I haven't seen the city lord since I came here, let's go see him. "

Huo Xian said softly: "The city lord is seriously ill, we're afraid it's not easy to bother him."

"It's because I'm sick that I'm going to see it. I've lived in someone else's house for so long, so I have to visit the master." Gong Yunting is a person who says that the wind is the rain, so she wants to drag Huo Xian away, "The city lord lives in the house." Where is it? Who will lead the way?"

Xuan Qing frowned.

Huo Xian sighed softly, lowered his head slightly, put his chin against Gong Yunping's ear, and said softly: "The city lord has sores all over his body now, and his illness won't heal for a long time. .”

When Gong Yunting heard "sores all over her body", she immediately expressed a little hesitation. She thought about it for a moment, then changed her mind, "Okay, then I won't go."

Huo Xian showed a gentle smile.

The house in the back of the building is proud of the spring breeze.

Feng Zuixue subconsciously stroked the Mingxue Sword in his arms.

He clearly remembered the astonishment in Xuanqing's eyes just now when he looked at Mingxuejian.Xuan Qing recognized Ming Xuejian... In other words, Xuan Qing knew herself? !

Xuanqing knows me!

An indescribable excitement suddenly rose in Feng Cuixue's heart. Xuanqing knew herself, so Xuanqing must also know who she is!

The fog lingering in front of my eyes finally has a direction, and the questions that have been lingering in my heart have been answered. As long as you find Xuanqing, you can find the answer!

This matter cannot be told to Qingfeng.Feng Jixue rolled her eyes, glanced at Qingfeng who was sitting opposite, and had a rough plan in mind.

"Huo Xianding will find another place to hide the city lord." Qing Feng said: "There was too much commotion in the city lord's mansion just now, if the Heart Eater Vine is really in it, I'm afraid we already know what we speculated about it being in the city lord's mansion."

A cold voice came from outside the door, "What you want."

Shen Yupo wore a robe of hundreds of flowers, and leaned lazily on the door frame. Tong'er took the booklet in her hand, walked in, and handed it to Qingfeng with respectful hands.

Qingfeng opened the booklet, but didn't read it, he turned it over and pushed it in front of Feng Cuixue who was sitting across from him.

"Huo Xian was born in the countryside. When he was ten years old, the village was slaughtered by bandits, and all his family members were killed by bandits. It happened that the master of Seven Stars Gate passed by, so he brought him back to Seven Stars Gate to teach him personally. Now he is the pride of Gong Zhan's subordinates. Student, few people in the Seven Stars Sect know about his past." Shen Yupo did not come in, still leaning against the door frame, "It is said that the next Sect will mainly choose between Huo Xian and Chu Xingyun, and Chu Xingyun is the elder of the Sect As a son, Huo Xian is naturally inferior to Chu Xingyun in terms of background, but Huo Xian has the backing of the head Gong Zhan, if the assassination of the prince is successful this time, the next head must be secure."

Shen Yupo let out a "tsk" and snorted coldly: "If you're playing tricks before you become the master, will you really be able to become him?"

Qingfeng said: "How many people did he bring with him?"

"Nearly a hundred disciples in the sect." Shen Yupo said: "They are all experts in the sect. It seems that they are planning to not kill the prince this time and will not give up."

Feng Cuixue raised her head from the file, "Aren't they going to grab the Heart Vine?"

Hearing Feng Cuixue talking to himself, Shen Yupo was stunned for a moment before sneering: "Most of the manpower is used to find the prince, and the matter of the heart-eating vine is naturally not important. If you can't find it, you can continue to push the pot." To Qingfeng...you say yes."

Qingfeng: "..."

"Since it is suspected that the Heart-eating Vine is in the City Lord's Mansion, did you meet any suspicious people when you went there today?" Shen Yupo asked.

Feng Cuixue was full of Xuanqing, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that the chances of Xuanqing being the Heart-eating Vine were not high, because if Xuanqing obviously didn't know Qingfeng, and if Xuanqing was the Heart-eating Vine, then it is estimated that Xuanqing would be the heart-eating vine. Qing wished that the two of them would be arrested, let alone take the initiative to release the water.

But if you want to talk about the people he has met in the city lord's mansion... besides the city lord, there is only Zhang Wenyan. Zhang Wenyan's personality is so flamboyant, it doesn't look like a heart-eating vine.

At this time, Qingfeng's words awakened Feng Cuixue: "Since the target of the heart-eating vine is the prince, all actions should be based on getting close to the prince."

"Huo Xian?" Feng Qixue was enlightened, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

Qingfeng thought about it for a while, and Shen Yupo said: "It's not impossible. After all, Huo Xian's goal is the prince, and his status is not low. If the heart-eating vine takes his house, it will be twice the result with half the effort to find the prince."

Feng Zuixue said: "If Huo Xian is really the Heart-eating Vine, then it makes more sense for him to spread that Qingfeng is an accomplice of the Heart-eating Vine everywhere. He wants other monks to block us and disturb our sight."

Qingfeng said: "Observe again."

Sweeping his gaze to the case file in front of Feng Cuixue, he found that the case file had been stuck on the page of Xuan Qing. There were only a few lines of information about Xuan Qing. Question?"

"Hmm." Feng Cuixue thought for a while, then asked casually: "Today, I checked two moves with him, and I feel that although he is young, his strength is not bad... Well, he is stronger than others."

A few simple sentences, without any deliberation.

"Xuanqing?" Shen Yupo thought for a moment, "His ability is considered superior in the Seven Stars Gate, but he has always been notorious, and he is very low-key. He entered the Seven Stars Gate at the age of ten, and has been working under Huo Xian ever since. It is Huo Xian chief confidant."

"Danxia City is an important place in the northern border. Four or five years ago, Huo Xian sent Xuan Qing to serve as a demon master in Danxia City, in fact to monitor every move in the city."

Feng Cuixue nodded, thinking that was not necessarily the case.

Turning the page of the case file with normal expression, the next page is the information of Gong Yunting, the only daughter of the head of the Seven Stars Gate. Feng Cuixue glanced at it, and was not surprised at all.With Gong Yunting's pampered appearance, and considering that she shares the same surname as Gong Zhan, the head of the Seven Stars Sect, it's not difficult to guess her identity.Seeing how she was dressed so heavily in winter, she probably didn't have spiritual power to protect her body.No matter how talented she is, with her status as the daughter of the head of the sect and the treasures of heaven and earth, she can build up a little bit of cultivation, but Gong Yunting doesn't have the slightest bit of spiritual power. Apart from the broken meridians that cannot be repaired, there seems to be no other reason. The reason can be explained.

Ah no, there is another reason.Feng Zuixue lowered her eyes and touched the soul-binding lock on her wrist.

After touching it for a while, Feng Cuixue let go, and turned over the file again.This case file is quite thick, in addition to the important figures Huo Xian brought into the city this time, there are also monks and counselors under the command of the city lord...

It takes a lot of effort to make such a case file, and there are some little-known secrets in it, which must not be collected in a day or two. When did Qingfeng and Shen Yupo start collecting these things?

As if knowing what Feng Cuixue was thinking, Shen Yupo lazily said: "The Heart-eating Vine is too good at disguising, ever since we rescued you, Qingfeng and I have been checking the movements of all the monks in the city, otherwise you think Qingfeng is doing something during this time. What? Just play house with you?"

Feng Zuixue blinked blankly and looked at Qingfeng.

Qingfeng interrupted: "Since his injury has healed, it is inconvenient for us to bother you here, we will leave later."

There is another fight.

Feng Cuixue changed her posture, propped her chin, and looked at the two of them with interest, she was just about to take a plate of melon seeds.

Sure enough, Shen Yupo's face darkened, "What do you mean? Every time you want to come, you can come and go, can you treat my place as an inn?"

Qingfeng was about to deny it, but Shen Yupo sneered again, "It's as if I'm driving you away."

"No." Qingfeng frowned.

"That's all." Shen Yupo took a breath, his eyes swept over Feng Cuixue who was watching a play, his brows were slightly frowned, and then he quickly let go.

"Tomorrow is the New Year's Eve, so stay and have a meal together." When they were in Tianyan Sect, they would spend together every year.

Shen Yupo sighed slightly, looking at Feng Cuixue, as if he was looking at Junior Brother Feng many years ago through his face.However, it was only for such a moment that Shen Yupo looked away, "I still have something to do in the front hall, so I'll go first." Then he stepped out the door, the tail of the skirt swaying around his feet in waves.

Feng Cuixue, who was waiting for the two to quarrel and prepare to watch a play: ...?
