Both worlds are like dreams

Chapter 28: Mo Ruilin is captured

Here, Xue Huang and Na Xuyao have exchanged more than ten moves. His swordsmanship is superb, no less than Guigu's Seven Killing Swords. The sword in his hand is an even rarer weapon.

"You are so young, yet you have such great martial arts skills." Xu Yao took a step back and said.

"Your Excellency is not bad either." Xue Huang said with a smile.

"But you chose to help them. You will regret it."

Xue Huang smiled calmly: "Whether you regret it later or not is none of your business."

As she spoke, she turned her wrist and swung the sword in her hand so fast that it was impenetrable. The Seven Killing Sword Intent was as overwhelming as a river.

\"Good! Very good!\"

Xu Yao praised him twice, then attacked with all his might, his moves were ruthless and his sword strikes were deadly.

Xue Huang's moves were extremely flexible. She could avoid Xu Yao's sword with every move, and she could attack him quickly when he showed a flaw.

But Xu Yao was obviously not easy to deal with. He was able to break Xue Huang's swordsmanship by changing his moves, and at the same time he could counterattack with ease.

His swordsmanship is as proficient as Xue Huang's, and coupled with his strange body movements, he is fast and aggressive, making it difficult for people to cope and defend themselves.

Next to them, Gu Qinglan and Mo Ruilin were constantly being exhausted by the puppets, and they were already unable to do anything. Xue Huang tried to pull herself away to help them several times, but was stopped by Xu Yao.

He was deliberately restraining himself. If this situation could not be broken as soon as possible, I am afraid that both Gu Qinglan and Mo Ruilin would be in danger.

Thinking of this, Xue Huang's swordsmanship became more fierce, and she used all her strength in every move.

But at this moment, she felt her wrist suddenly tighten, as if something was entangled in it. She struggled a little and saw a circle of blood on her wrist.

She looked at the ghost, and the ghost also looked at her with sinister eyes. Xue Huang immediately understood that this was his hanging thread.

Want to manipulate her? No way!

Xue Huang was about to swing her sword at Xu Yao, but she turned around and cut off his thread. However, as she was distracted, Xu Yao's palm power was already in front of her.

But he didn't seem to expect that Xue Huang would reveal such a big flaw. A complicated look flashed in his eyes. He hurriedly withdrew his hand, but the palm force that could not be retracted still hit Xue Huang's shoulder heavily.

Xue Huang's body flew backwards and fell directly into the encirclement of the puppets. Gu Qinglan supported her in time, but at this moment, he himself had two wounds on his body caused by the sword.

Before he could ask if Xue Huang was okay, he saw Mo Ruilin suddenly rushing over and standing in front of them.

The puppeteer's fingertips changed, and an invisible silk thread wrapped around Mo Ruilin's body, pulling his body into the air.

Xue Huang immediately shot out a stream of cold air from her palm, and strips of ice suddenly condensed in the air, and all the silk threads became visible in an instant.

The ghost's control was temporarily interrupted, and Xue Huang took the opportunity to snatch Mo Ruilin back from him, but there were still puppets that avoided the Mysterious Ice Curse and chopped at her with their swords.

Xue Huang blocked with her sword, but in just a moment, Mo Ruilin fell into Xu Yao's hands.

Xue Huang frowned slightly. Although Xu Yao's palm landed on her shoulder, it still caused her internal injuries. In order to save Mo Ruilin just now, she used her internal energy to cast the Mysterious Ice Curse. At this moment, she only felt the blood surging in her throat.

But she still suppressed it and looked at Xuyao's sword across Mo Ruilin's neck, "Killing him will mean nothing to you."

"He is my bargaining chip now." Xu Yao looked uncertain.

Gu Qinglan took a step forward and frowned, saying, "Since it's a bargaining chip, then tell me your conditions."

Xu Yao was silent for a moment, then suddenly took out a small medicine bottle from his waist and threw it over.

Gu Qinglan reached out and took it, "What is this?"

"You have the bargaining chip to negotiate with me." Xu Yao said. "I'll take the person away. I hope it won't be too long before we meet again." After he finished speaking, he and the ghost took the unconscious Mo Ruilin away.

"Wait a minute." Xue Huang flew over and chased after him, only to see the ghost throwing out something, which instantly exploded into a white mist.

When they dispersed, Xuyao and the others had disappeared, leaving only corpses and blood all over the ground, a horrible sight.

"It's too late." Gu Qinglan frowned.

"What are you going to do?" Xue Huang asked worriedly. "The situation with my second uncle is unclear, and the prince has been captured. The situation is very unfavorable to us. What if the emperor blames you?"

Gu Qinglan looked at the medicine bottle in his hand and said, "Perhaps solving the mystery of this bottle is the key to saving His Highness."

Xue Huang took it and looked at it carefully. It was finely crafted and of high quality. It should be used exclusively by princes and nobles. She opened the seal and smelled the inside. The bottle was empty, but there was still a hint of medicine.

"Leave this to me. You go to the palace to meet the emperor first. This matter deserves an explanation." Xue Huang said.

"What about your injury?" Qinglan asked worriedly.

"I'm fine." Xue Huang smiled calmly, "Go quickly. I'll wait for you at Jinxiu Tower."

"Okay. Be careful when you go out from here." Gu Qinglan told her worriedly.

"Don't worry." Xue Huang smiled. "You have to be careful too. However, if the emperor blames you, I will definitely save you even if I have to break into prison."

Gu Qinglan finally smiled and said, "Okay." After that, he hurried to meet the emperor.

Seeing him walk away, Xue Huang touched the gem on her neck and asked, "Do you have any clues?"

"No."

"I'm serious." Xue Huang said.

"Going back to Jinxiu Tower is the only thing you need to do right now."

"You don't seem to want me to take care of this."

"That's right," the voice in the gem said with a hint of helplessness, "You should know that I didn't recommend you to come here from the beginning."

"Don't you think this bottle looks familiar?" Xue Huang asked directly.

"Leave first."

Xue Huang put away the bottle, walked over the corpses on the ground and left in the direction she came from.

But when she reached the rockery, she hesitated. The rockery was very large, and Xue Huang walked around it and found that she was lost.

"Do you still remember the route?" Xue Huang asked.

"Of course I don't remember." said the voice in the gem.

"They all look similar." Xue Huang picked a direction that looked the most similar and walked towards it, finally arriving at the palace wall. However, after she jumped out, she found that she had successfully gone in the wrong direction.

But the general direction is still correct. If we cross the street in front of us, we should be able to return to Suzaku Street.

But at this time, Xue Huang couldn't hold back any longer and spit out a mouthful of blood.

She leaned against the wall and coughed for a long time. She was afraid that Gu Qinglan would worry, so she endured it until now.

"I told you not to be so stubborn." The voice in the gem was gnashing teeth and full of worry.

“If it weren’t for that ghost shadow controlling those soldiers, they would never be our match.” Xue Huang said.

"Don't make excuses. Go back and heal your wounds."

"Take a breath," Xue Huang let out a long sigh, "Actually, that palm strike was nothing. It was because I used the Mysterious Ice Curse right after that that I didn't have enough strength for a moment."

"Get out of here." The voice in the gem suddenly became serious.

Xue Huang stood up straight and quickened her pace as she walked forward.

"Not that direction."

Xue Huang stopped and said, "It's too late." She looked coldly at the figure walking slowly in front of her.

What is this? Coincidence? Or is it just a coincidence?
