My lady, I'm going to rebel.

Mu Zheng and the others looked at each other, then suddenly pushed open the door and rushed into the yard. The sudden movement startled everyone in the yard.

But the middle-aged man in black robe quickly came to his senses, with a fierce look in his eyes, "Humph, there is a road to heaven but you don't take it, there is no door to hell but you insist on breaking in. Now that you are here, don't leave!"

After saying that, he waved his hand, and the ferocious-looking men around him pounced towards Mu Zheng and others like hungry wolves. For a moment, the flashes of swords and the shouts of killing resounded throughout the entire courtyard.

Mu Zheng was the first to bear the brunt of the attack. The long sword in his hand swung out sword flowers, and each move was extremely sharp. He blocked the attacks of several big men in an instant and stabbed one of them.

Zhong Hua brandished his long sword with great power. With his superb swordsmanship, he rushed through the crowd, and the enemies avoided him wherever he went.

Li Lian's swordsmanship was graceful, and his sword moves lightly. Wherever the sword blade passed, a flower of blood was left. He cooperated with Mu Zheng to form a line of defense with both offensive and defensive capabilities.

Although the little mosquito was thin, he was extremely agile. He held a short knife in his hand and targeted the enemy's weak points. Sometimes he would get behind this big man and slash him with the knife, and sometimes he would attack another big man from the side, disrupting the formation of those men. They kept cursing but could not catch him.

Seeing his men unable to deal with Mu Zheng and the others, the black-robed middle-aged man snorted coldly and joined the fray himself. He moved with incredible speed, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Mu Zheng. He slapped out with both palms, carrying a powerful internal force. Mu Zheng felt a surge of force and quickly raised his sword to block it, but he was still knocked back several steps, his blood surging.

"Brother!" Li Lian was extremely anxious when he saw this. He wanted to rush over to help, but was held tightly by two big men.

While dealing with the enemy, Zhong Hua shouted, "Brother Mu, be careful! This old thief is very skilled in martial arts. Don't fight him head-on!"

Mu Zheng steadied himself, took a deep breath, and knew in his heart that he had to remain calm at this moment.

He adjusted his breath and changed his tactics. He no longer confronted the middle-aged man in black robe head-on, but instead relied on his flexible body to deal with him and look for his opponent's flaws.

On the other side, Han Zi was fighting against many enemies alone and gradually found it difficult. He also had several wounds on his body, but he gritted his teeth and refused to take a step back. The long sword in his hand was still wielded tightly, sharing the pressure with his companions.

Just when the two sides were deadlocked and the battle was at a stalemate, the sound of horse hooves and shouts of killing suddenly came from afar. It turned out that the two rebel armies that had been suspicious of each other got the news from somewhere, put aside their past grudges, and united to come together.

They led their men and poured into the courtyard like a tide, surrounding the black-robed middle-aged man's men.

The middle-aged man in black robe's face changed drastically. He didn't expect the situation to suddenly reverse. He thought to himself that something was wrong and wanted to break through and escape, but Mu Zheng saw the opportunity and stabbed him in the right arm with a sword. The pain made him gasp.

The leaders of the rebel army dismounted one after another, and one of them shouted, "You sinister villains, for your own selfish desires, resorted to such despicable means. Today is the day you die!"

The middle-aged man in the black robe knew that the situation was hopeless, but he still said stubbornly, "Humph, even if you win today, so what? In this world, it's always the law of the jungle. I just want to fight for a place."

Mu Zheng stepped forward, pointed his sword at him, and said coldly: "You are unworthy of fighting by such means as harming innocent people and provoking disputes! Now that the truth is out, you should pay the price for your sins."

After the matter was settled, Zhong Hua came to express his gratitude, but Mu Zheng stared at him and said, "I have a question. How did the other two rebel armies get the news so quickly and come to support us?"

Zhong Hua's expression froze, and he smiled and said, "Since Brother Mu has already guessed it, why bother asking again?"

Mu Zheng looked as if he understood: "As expected, Brother Zhonghua is a member of one of the rebel forces."

Zhong Hua clasped his fists and said, "I shouldn't have concealed it earlier. I hope Brother Mu will forgive me."

Mu Zheng nodded. He understood Zhong Hua's caution. After all, he was also one of the suspects at the time, so it was normal for Zhong Hua to be wary of him.

"I guess Zhonghua is not your real name?" Mu Zheng asked.

"No, Zhonghua is my courtesy name. My surname is Deng and my given name is Yu." Zhonghua said.

Deng Yu?

Mu Zheng's eyes flashed, and his heart was like the sound of a drum hammer.

This person turned out to be the famous Deng Yu.

You know, he was the most important person around Liu Xiu. He not only helped Liu Xiu to conquer Hebei and pacify Guanzhong, but also helped him to sit in the final high position. Liu Xiu "relied on him as Xiao He".

Seeing Mu Zheng's strange look, Deng Yu was surprised: "Why? Brother Mu, have you heard of me?"

Mu Zheng came back to his senses and shook his head, "No, I was just thinking, Brother Deng is brave and resourceful, and I also need a place to stay, so I'll follow you in the future."

what?

Deng Yu was overjoyed: "Brother Mu, do you really think so?"

Mu Zheng nodded.

Deng Yu laughed out loud: "Then I have found a treasure."

Mu Zheng laughed too. Yes, he had found a treasure too. After searching for Liu Xiu for so long, he didn't find it, but instead found the person Liu Xiu trusted the most.

He is looking forward to his rapid rise to fame!
