I am Zhao Zhijing, a poor Taoist priest, and I have disciples all over the world.

Zhao Zhijing thought that Xiaolongnu left the ancient tomb this time to seek revenge on Ouyang Feng again, but he never expected to hear such shocking news.

Li Mochou is going to get married?

After hearing this, Zhao Zhijing's first reaction was that Li Mochou knew she was no match for Xiaolongnu, so she deliberately set a trap.

But judging from her series of actions to sow discord between Song and Meng, she has most likely been controlled by the Gongping Cult. Could it be that those evil people have set their sights on Xiaolongnu?

"Looking at your surprised expression, could it be that you have feelings for my senior sister and don't want her to get married?"

If it were any other time, Zhao Zhijing might have nodded heavily and used triple affirmation to express strong negation.

"Ah, yes, yes!"

But facing Xiaolongnu, who can't understand what she is saying, even the slightest roundabout way would be unnecessary.

"Don't joke, Miss Long. You should be very clear about your senior sister's style of doing things. There must be some conspiracy behind this marriage."

Xiaolongnu shook her head. She knew Li Mochou's character very well. Although she was cruel and ruthless, she attached great importance to her own innocence.

Last year, the two of them traveled together in the martial arts world. Those stinky men would be killed immediately by Li Mochou if they said something frivolous or even showed the slightest evil thought in their expressions.

So this time Li Mochou invited Xiaolongnu to watch the wedding ceremony on the pretext of her wedding. Although Xiaolongnu was reluctant to leave the ancient tomb, she decided to keep the appointment as they were from the same sect.

In addition, Xiaolongnu believed that her martial arts skills were much better than those of her senior sister Li Mochou, so she was not worried about being plotted against.

"She is my senior sister after all, I will go no matter what."

Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Zhao Zhijing had no choice but to ask, "Miss Long, do you know who your senior sister is going to marry?"

Xiao Long Nu still shook her head, "I don't know. The letter only told me to go to Wancheng in Yuzhou, and someone would pick me up there."

Wancheng is located north of Xiangyang City and is now the territory of the Mongols.

Compared to Zhen Zhibing, Li Mochou's status in the Gongping Sect must be higher. If she can be caught, we should be able to follow the clues and dig out more information about the Gongping Sect.

Furthermore, it has been confirmed by Huang Yaoshi that the headquarters of the Gongping Cult is most likely in the Xingxiu Sea area of the Western Regions. Not to mention that it is thousands of miles away, the area is often deserted for hundreds of miles, so looking for someone there is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

Therefore, the current strategy should be to take a two-pronged approach. On the one hand, we must defend Xiangyang, and on the other hand, we must find out the hidden lines of the Gongping Sect lurking in the Central Plains and try to reduce the space they can move in.

It's a pity that I'm too busy to do that now, otherwise I would definitely go to Wancheng to see what Li Mochou is up to.

Fortunately, the two places are not far apart, and if you hurry, you can get there in half a day.

"Are you done asking? I have to continue on my way."

After leaving the ancient tomb, Xiaolongnu originally planned to go to Wancheng via Xiangyang, but now there were Mongolian troops stationed outside Xiangyang City, so she had to change the route.

Today, they encountered a group of Mongolian soldiers who were gathering information. When they saw such a beautiful woman like Xiaolongnu, they naturally had evil intentions, and in the blink of an eye, they were all beheaded.

This then attracted the group of people led by King Jinlun who were nearby. King Jinlun was proud of his status, so Huodu came forward to arrest her, and then Zhao Zhijing happened to arrive.

"Thank you for telling me, but the war between Song and Mongolia is about to break out, and Wancheng is in Mongolian territory, so please be careful, Miss Long."

Master Zhao Zhijing and his apprentice said goodbye to Xiao Longnu and returned to Lujiazhuang. Huang Rong also felt very strange after hearing about this. "Master Zhao, as far as I know, Li Mochou has been in the martial arts world for many years, and except for Lu Zhanyuan from Lujiazhuang in Jiangnan, she has never had any entanglement with any other man."

"Now that she is willing to use her own innocence as bait, I'm sure she is targeting more than just this dragon girl, right?"

Zhao Zhijing had the same idea. If the Gongping Cult wanted to capture Xiaolongnu through Li Mochou, they could have done it at any time in the past year. Why did they have to wait until now?

Moreover, since the last assassination attempt on Huodu in Shaolin Temple, Li Mochou has disappeared for a long time.

"These people will do anything to bring chaos to the world. It is really hard to guess their true intentions."

After some discussion, the two decided to wait and see what happens. After all, defending Xiangyang is the top priority.

Moreover, in Zhao Zhijing's opinion, with Xiaolongnu's martial arts, especially her lightness skills, she would always be able to escape when she saw the situation was not good.

What's more, Mongolia was about to use its military force at that time, and internal and external control must be strict. Even if Xiaolongnu was ignorant of the world, she would not be stupid enough to charge into the Mongolian army alone.

Three days later, Mongolia finally launched an attack on Xiangyang City.

When the war broke out, the people within a hundred miles who had originally held out for a slim chance and were unwilling to leave their homeland had no choice but to retreat southward with their families.

Fortunately, with the experience from more than ten years ago, Guo Jing and the court officials in Xiangyang City made preparations in advance this time and accepted the refugees pouring in from all directions to the greatest extent possible.

Although these people didn't know where to go in the future after losing their houses and land, they at least saved their lives.

Guo Jing led a group of martial arts masters and launched a strong counterattack whenever the Mongolian army gained the upper hand. Although his side could only adopt a strategy of holding on, it was extremely difficult for the other side to make any progress.

The two sides soon entered a fierce battle. The Mongols continued to put pressure on Xiangyang every day, while Guo Jing fought back with the tactics he learned from Wu Mu's posthumous letter.

As the saying goes, the first attack is powerful, the second is weaker, and the third is exhausted. After defeating the Mongolian army several times, Guo Jing finally opened the city gates and led his troops to attack.

Who knew that Kublai Khan had a Han Chinese strategist under his command who had already secretly set up a trap, just waiting for Guo Jing to take the bait.

However, while the mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. Just as Kublai Khan was leading his army to encircle Guo Jing, Zhao Zhijing and Huang Rong, with a team of 500 people consisting of martial arts masters and elite members of the Beggars' Sect, unexpectedly attacked from the side.

Although there were only 500 people, all of them fought bravely, especially Zhao Zhijing and his men who charged at the front. They were invincible, like a sharp arrow that pierced through the heavy encirclement and were about to join Guo Jing's troops.

"The rulers of the Southern Dynasties were stupid and incompetent, the officials were incompetent, the soldiers did not know their generals, and the generals did not know their soldiers. Therefore, although the Han people far outnumbered the Mongols, they were not a cause for concern."

Kublai Khan sat firmly in the central military tent, watching the two armies fighting in front of him. The situation, which was already almost certain to win, was turned around by a team of only a few hundred people. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh.

"The only person I was worried about was Guo Jing. After seeing him today, I found that his reputation is indeed well-deserved."

On the battlefield, a middle-aged man was like a god descending from heaven. Although he was unarmed, he was able to move freely and his subordinates were no match for him. It was Guo Jing.

"hiss"

Kublai Khan was just sighing with emotion when he suddenly saw a warrior in the Han army who was about the same age as Guo Jing and was equally unstoppable.

The two were originally separated by the army at a distance, but in the blink of an eye, they had gathered together, and immediately became as powerful as thunder, killing the approaching Mongolian soldiers and forcing them to retreat step by step.

"Among all the warriors in the world, who else can match these two?" (End of this chapter)
