Chapter 72 - Raising the Sword with Blood
Soon, the entire sword body of the Chengying Sword was stained with blood from the turbid wind. The blue light it released became colder and colder, making people scary.
Ling Wuxie and Chu Shaolong have heard of the ancient divine sword Chengying Sword. If you want it to exert your divine power, the sword holder must first feed the sword with his own blood.
They didn't believe this before, until today they saw this scene with their own eyes. Because Yi Zhuofeng used to deal with mortals, there was no need to inspire the divine power of the Chengying Sword. At this moment, what he was going to deal with was an ancient beast.
When the bull was only three feet away from Yi Zhuifeng, Yi Zhuifeng suddenly held the hilt of the Chengying Sword with both hands and slashed at the bull!
At first, a shrill roar echoed through the sky.
The bull was slashed by the Chengying Sword, splashing countless black blood, and then it tilted its body and fell heavily into the cold pond below.
Seeing this, Yi Zhuofeng withdrew the Chengying Sword at a natural speed, turned around and flew towards the direction he came. He obviously killed the bull, but nothing had happened.
Another loud bang came.
After the bull fell into the cold pool, the tornado above the cold pool immediately dissipated, and the water surface of the cold pool returned to its original calm.
Ling Wuxie and Chu Shaolong looked at you again, and I looked at me, and they all had feelings in their hearts, but they didn't say anything...
Shortly afterwards, Ling Wuxie and Chu Shaolong also flew south until they reached Tingfeng Hall.
Tingfeng Hall is in the lobby, and the five hall owners gather here.
Yi Zhuofeng held the Chengying Sword in his right hand, and his left hand was bent and his blood was still dry, and he stood with his back towards the gate. The other four people stood side by side behind him.
Yi Zhuofeng still had no expression on his face, but his face was obviously darker than before. When he came in, the other four people noticed.
So the other four were relatively reserved. Yi Zhuofeng had not spoken, so they remained silent.
It was not until a long time before Yi Zhuofeng finally opened his lips. His voice was extremely low, and he first shouted Ling Wuxie, "Wuxie."
Ling Wuxie was slightly stunned, came to his senses, and immediately responded to him, "I'm here."
Yi Zhuofeng did not look back at him, but arranged an errand for him and said, "You can investigate this matter, why did something suddenly happen in Beihantan?"
Ling Wuxie nodded again.
Yi Zhuofeng called Chu Shaolong again, "Lord Chu."
Chu Shaolong, who was already shaking the fan gently, heard this, quickly put away the fan, bowed slightly, and responded to him respectfully, "Young Master Yi."
Yi Zhuofeng arranged for him tonight, and the month will be held as scheduled after the hour. So in the next few hours, the rudder or deacon from outside will come in. At each exit, you and Hua Jingjing send people to keep a close eye on each exit, be careful of idle people entering.”
"Yes." Chu Shaolong said again.
The other three have exact tasks, but Zhuang Li is the only one left. I guessed that Yi Zhuofeng would arrange for him next, Zhuang Li's expression suddenly changed, he lowered his head slightly, his whole body trembled slightly, and he was a little nervous.
As for why he was nervous, Yi Zhuofeng knew it.
After a while, Yi Zhuofeng asked him coldly, "Have you found the daughter of the church hall, Shi Chengzhu,?"
Faced with Yi Zhuang Feng, Zhuang Li's reaction was often slow. Today was no exception. He replied in a moment, "No...no..."
Because of his answer, a stone seemed to fall to the ground in Yi Zhuofeng's heart. He was standing on the back, and his face was not that ugly.
Then, he arranged for Zhuang Li to say, "There is no need to find one. The Gong brothers and a woman from the Xu family are still here. In the past two days, you will take time to accompany them more to show your hospitality."
Although Zhuang Li has always been afraid of Yi Zhuofeng, he is becoming more and more nervous at this time. However, his mind is always clear. At this moment, after listening to Yi Zhuofeng's arrangement, he is extremely puzzled.
He raised his head, and after raising his courage, he stuttered and told Yi Zhuofeng, "No...no need to look for it? Why? Young Master Yi...is inappropriate! That Shi Ruge... she is an important hostage!"
The other three people also thought this was strange and thought about it. For their Tianyi Sect, Shi Ruge should have found it no matter what, but Yi Zhuofeng did not allow him to find it.
At a moment, Yi Zhuofeng's cold eyes became colder again, and the murderous aura was thriving in his eyes. He turned slowly, looking at Zhuang Li without turning his eyes, and approached Zhuang Li step by step, saying: "It has been three days, and I haven't found a living for three days. There is no doubt that she is dead. If you find a corpse and hand it over to the leader, let him take it to exchange with Shi Chengzhu, do you think Shi Chengzhu will tell the whereabouts of the immortal grass in the end? His daughter is dead, and only hatred and anger are left in his heart, and he just wants to avenge his daughter at all costs..."
Every time Yi Zhuofeng approached, Zhuang Li took a step back, and his whole body trembled more and more violently. Then, he stuttered to Yi Zhuofeng, "I, I, I, I...I understand...I won't look for it."
Because Zhuang Li compromised, Yi Zhuofeng's steps immediately stopped.
"Get out." He said to Zhuang Li. His voice was very light, cold and fierce.
Zhuang Li nodded immediately, and took the lead in leaving the Tingfengtang main lobby first.
Ling Wuxie, Chu Shaolong and Hua Jingjing looked at each other quietly again, looking at each other.
Ling Wuxie was still thinking in his heart, "What is Zhuofeng doing? Is he protecting Shi Ruge? Or has Shi Ruge already been killed by him?"
Chu Shaolong and Hua Jingjing also frowned slightly, and they also felt that the turbid wind was really strange.
Suddenly, he noticed that Yi Zhuofeng's left hand was still bleeding. A look of anxiety appeared on Ling Wuxie's face again, and he quickly cared for him and said, "Zhuofeng, your hand... I'll ask someone to bandage you immediately!"
After saying that, Ling Wuxie was about to go outside and was about to call a maid in. As a result, Yi Zhuofeng stopped him softly, "No need Wuxie."
At this moment, Ling Wuxie naturally stopped again, looking at Yi Zhuifeng, with a hint of worry about him mixed in his eyes.
Yi Zhuofeng looked at Chu Shaolong and Hua Jingjing again, and then said to Ling Wuxie: "There is nothing else, you can disperse too."
Chu Shaolong and Hua Jingjing nodded at Yi Zhuofeng again, and then walked quickly. Only Ling Wuxie, before leaving, he looked at Yi Zhuofeng for a while, and became more and more confused.
After the other three left, Yi Zhuofeng walked silently towards Qionghuaju.
Along the way, the wound on his left hand palm was slowly healing automatically. Moreover, his mood was both calm and complicated.
At some point, he still felt a little regretful, regretting that he drove Shi Ruge away last evening, so he was thinking: I don’t know where the little girl is now and whether she will be bullied.
However, the regret for driving Shi Ruge away was really only a moment in his heart. After that moment, Yi Xuanyi's voice sounded in his heart, ears, and mind.
That was when he was very young, Yi Xuanyi said to him: Zhuifeng, swear that you will be loyal to your uncle Pu Wen in this life, and you will never be able to die! Otherwise, the woman you love in the future will not die!
When Yi Xuanyi's voice sounded countless times, he no longer regretted it. And he clenched his fists tightly and told himself in his heart: Her life and death have nothing to do with you, don't worry about her anymore. She saved her life eight years ago, but in the past two days, you saved her and helped her, and you have paid back everything you should pay it back.
In the afternoon, Shi Chengzhu, who was resting in the inn room in the east of Tianyi Sect, received another secret letter.
The letter said: Brother Chengzhu, Pu invaded the pass at midnight tonight, and Ruge's niece still did not know whereabouts. However, it was easy to breeze, and he seemed to know Ruge's niece's whereabouts.
After reading this letter, Shi Chengyu was in a bad mood, and he muttered in a false voice, "Yi Zhuofeng... Could it be that Ruge has been killed by him..."
Every few days, he would receive a letter from this close friend, but never reply. This time, he replied unswervingly, saying: Tonight, I will wait for me on the east side of Lijue Peak.
He was too worried about Shi Ruge, so he decided not to wait, and went to Tianyi Sect as soon as possible to directly find Pu Wen to ask for someone...
In the afternoon, Zhuang Li, a Weicuiju in Tianyi Sect, came here deliberately and met Gong Ziqi's brothers and Xu Zhilan.
Originally, both Gong Ziqi and Xu Zhilan were very angry because they were greatly neglected and ignored them thoroughly because they came to the Tianyi Sect. And yesterday afternoon, Pu Wen had obviously returned, but he had no intention of seeing them.
At this moment, they saw Zhuang Li coming, and their mentality was slightly calmer and they didn't care about those things for the time being.
"Uncle Zhuang, does your leader know that we are here?" Gong Ziqi also asked Zhuang Li politely, always feeling that Pu Wen should not treat them like this.
Speaking of the people of the Tianyi Sect, the ones with the best relationship with their Gong family were Zhuang Li. What's more, his father Gong Zhan once once, and he endured the pain of presenting the ancient artifact Nine Heavens Divine Bow to Zhuang Li.
Zhuang Li sighed silently, and his attitude towards them was indeed more humble and polite, and told Gong Ziqi: "I probably don't know yet. Mr. Gong, sorry, I thought Yi Zhuofeng said it, but today I realized that he did not mention you to the leader yesterday."
Suddenly, Gong Ziqi's eyes became sharper, and he felt even more hatred for Yi Zhuofeng, and muttered softly, "It's him who interfered again..."
Zhuang Li had already seen it. When he first saw Yi Zhuofeng, the Gong brothers and Xu Zhilan felt that they were very disliked. At this time, he heard Gong Ziqi's muttering again, and he was even more sure of his inference.
He smiled coldly, and then suddenly asked Gong Ziqi again, "By the way, Mr. Gong, your Gong family and the Shi family have a good relationship before. So do you know that Shi Chengju and Yi Zhuofeng, do they know each other?"
Gong Ziqi was still gritting his teeth in his heart, just wanting to kill Yi Zhuofeng. Hearing Zhuo Li’s question like this, he immediately came to his senses and was surprised to ask Zhuo Li, “Oh? Uncle Zhuang, why did he suddenly ask this?”
Zhuang Li briefly said: "Recently we discovered that there were spies in our Tianyi Sect. Because a few days ago, we captured Shi Chengzhu's daughter Shi Ruge from Chuanzhou City. As a result, someone helped her escape from the stone prison. Her whereabouts are still unknown. And the wind is easy, he stopped me from looking for Shi Ruge."
Before, neither the Gong brothers nor Xu Zhilan understood why Xu Zhilan met Shi Ruge in Qionghua Curie yesterday. Now, after listening to Zhuang Li’s story, the three of them had a great enlightenment and their eyes were filled with shock.
