princess come to my arms

The man in black is immensely powerful, even if he swung the extremely heavy ax with power and style, it was handy.Relatively speaking, Li Yuqi is a little smaller in stature, and it is difficult for the two to equalize in momentum.With a thin sword in his hand, he couldn't fight head-to-head with it, so he could only keep looking for gaps to attack.

For a moment, the battle situation in the secret room reversed.The man in black gradually exerted his strength, approaching the vital point, and Li Yuqi was at a disadvantage.

All of a sudden, the man in black flicked the ax in his hand, Li Yuqi was caught in a trick to hide, but the ax did not arrive.By the time he reacted, the strong palm of the man in black had reached his shoulder.

"Hiss——" Li Yuqi was hit by a palm, and he knelt down on one knee, bleeding from the corner of his mouth.

Gu Zixuan was extremely anxious, but he couldn't leave his seat.Seeing Li Yuqi supporting the ground with the hilt of his sword, she slowly stood up and rushed towards the man in black again.

Her gaze is firm, but her moves have changed.

Under the attack of the men in black, Li Yuqi retreated steadily and kept walking backwards.

The prince is luring the enemy to go deep!Prepare yourself.

Gu Zixuan's eyes were fixed tightly, not daring to leave for a moment.The two have already reached the border of the Yeming District, and after two more steps, Zun Wang will be able to reach the safe area.

Li Yuqi gritted her teeth and struggled with the man in black, waiting for an opportunity.The inseparable fight between the two is not conducive to the activation of the hidden weapon. She can only find a gap, let the man in black stay in the trap, and she can escape.

The man in black is strong but not as agile as Li Yuqi, and she dodged all the moves she tried.

His leg swept towards Li Yuqi's lower body, and Li Yuqi bounced up, carefully dodging.But when he landed and escaped, his footsteps were unsteady and he staggered.Seemingly defenseless.

The man in black was very excited, seized the opportunity, raised his ax, and slashed at Li Yuqi.

It's now!

Li Yuqi, who had already been prepared, supported the ground with his hands, and quickly bounced backwards. After turning over, he landed outside the Yeming District.

The ax of the man in black struck downwards, but missed the person and hit the stone slab.When he got up to regain his senses, Gu Zixuan pressed the switch.

The arrow box hidden on the wall of the night pearl was opened, and arrows flooded like rain.It was too late to escape, and the man in black immediately swung his ax and began to resist.

Even if he was born with supernatural power, he couldn't stop the pincer attack from the left and right attacks.The defense became weaker and weaker, suddenly an arrow shot his right leg, and his body died due to the injury, and another arrow shot his left back, as if he had grown a terrible wing.

Even though he was injured several times, the man in black was still stubbornly resisting.With ferocious eyes, he shifted the arrows to the sides one after another, but several arrow feathers still landed on his body.

After a few seconds, the mechanism stopped and the arrows stopped shooting out.The man in black finally couldn't hold it anymore, he knelt down and supported his wobbly body with the handle of the axe.

He gritted his teeth, stretched his right hand behind his back, grabbed the end of the arrow on his left shoulder, and pulled out the arrow feathers with force, and then he pulled out several arrows from his feet, and threw them on the ground viciously, slowly supporting himself Standing up, his eyes were burning with anger, wanting to tear the two people in front of him to pieces.

Seeing this situation, Gu Zixuan became vigilant and wanted to turn on the switch again.Li Yuqi reached out to stop him: "No need, we can't put him to death. Leave the rest to me."

Li Yuqi raised his sword and strode towards the man in black, and then snapped his tendons with lightning speed, making him unable to swing the axe anymore.

"It's all right." Li Yuqi put down the saber in his hand, turned around to face Gu Zixuan behind him, and smiled slightly.

Gu Zixuan breathed a sigh of relief, and let go of his extremely tense arms.

"Tell me, who are you?"

Li Yuqi walked towards the man in black, trying to take off the mask on his face.But there was fierce resistance.

"Tell us and you will be spared." Li Yuqi seduced.

"Hehe." The man in black who fell to the ground sneered, his eyes were bloodshot, he reached into his bosom with his injured hand, and took out something.

"My lord, be careful!" Gu Zixuan exclaimed.

Li Yuqi raised his sword again, looking coldly at the dying man in front of him.

The man in black stood up tremblingly, and took out a bottle from his arms.

"You don't want to get any information from me! Hahaha!" The man in black went crazy, he opened the bottle cap, poured the liquid in the bottle on himself, then took out the fire pocket and set himself on fire.

"Ah—" Accompanied by heart-piercing screams, the bright fire light illuminated everything in the dark room.

"My lord... this..." Both Gu Zixuan and Li Yuqi were so surprised by the scene before them that they could not speak.

"Hey - he is a man of integrity, and the people who can drive him behind the scenes have a lot of background." Li Yuqi sighed silently, walked towards Gu Zixuan, dropped the sword in his hand, and embraced Gu Ziqi's body.

The burnt smell was in the air, disgusting.

Li Yuqi turned Gu Zixuan's body aside, preventing her from facing this tragic scene.Gu Zixuan shrank into Li Yuqi's arms, adjusting the discomfort in his heart.

When he turned his head, Gu Zixuan suddenly saw, not far from the burning fire, there was a gray cloth bag bulging inside, as if it was hiding something.

"My lord, there's something there." Gu Zixuan pointed at it, and Li Yuqi quickly turned his gaze there.

"I'll go and have a look." Li Yuqi left Gu Zixuan's embrace, squatted down, picked up the saber on the ground, and slowly moved towards the unknown object.

"Be careful." Gu Ziqi reminded uneasily.

"I know. You step back and stay away from it." Li Yuqi was not at ease, and turned around and told him.

In order to let Li Yuqi have no worries, Gu Zixuan obediently took three steps back.

Li Yuqi held the hilt of the sword and reached for the unknown thing with the tip of the sword.The unknown thing was forced and rolled towards Li Yuqi's feet.She bent down to pick it up.

After pinching it lightly, Li Yuqi felt that the inside was a bit hard.She unwrapped the layer of gray cloth that was wrapped outside, and the things inside revealed the true face of Mount Lu.

"What is this?" Gu Zixuan approached, looking at what Li Yuqi was holding and asked.

"It seems to be a token." Facing the two of them is the back of the wooden sign, with the word "Ling" engraved on it.

Li Yuqi slowly turned over the wooden sign, and when they saw the word on the front of the wooden sign clearly, both of them were shocked.

Because the word "Zheng" is engraved on the front of the token!

"Did King Zheng do what happened to Concubine Shu? Accidentally left the token behind and sent someone to get it?" Gu Zixuan boldly guessed.

"Whether this token...is to be taken or released remains to be verified." Li Yuqi raised his head and said solemnly.

"You mean someone is going to blame King Zheng?"

Li Yuqi nodded, "This man is highly skilled in martial arts and meticulous in his actions. Obviously, he has been trained for many years. In this case, how could he leave such evidence for us before he died. I guess, his mission here this time is Hide this object in the cold palace and blame King Zheng. When we were fighting just now, we knew that we were doomed, so we deliberately threw this object out to mislead us."

"It makes sense. We can't ask anything when people are dead. Now, what should we do?"

"Since we are here, we should investigate carefully. I believe there are other clues."

"it is good."

The two of them lit fire folders respectively, and launched a careful search for the secret passage.

**

"My lord, come quickly, there are many footprints here." Gu Zixuan saw footprints on the main road of the secret road, she got down on her knees, and carefully discerned the time when these footprints were left.

"The footprints here are already blurred, obviously they were not left recently, and it is very likely that they were left by Concubine Shu when she escaped." Gu Zixuan said.

"So, someone did assist her escape."

"Yes!"

The more the two walked in, the more dignified the atmosphere and the more complicated their mood.

"Princess, come here, what is hooked on this branch." The sharp-eyed Li Yuqi inadvertently caught a glimpse of a strange thing, and then stopped.She carefully stretched out her index finger and thumb to pinch the object, took it off, and put it in the palm of her hand to watch.

"It seems like a piece of cloth." Gu Zixuan came closer and studied with Li Yuqi.

"It should be that someone rushed past here, and the clothes that were accidentally scratched by this branch left marks."

"It's possible. It's almost dawn, we need to hurry up. Put this thing away first, and study it carefully when we go back."

"it is good."

Next, the two searched a large circle in the secret passage, but found nothing.

"Why don't you go to the Lenggong to have a look?" Li Yuqi pointed to the upward staircase and said.

"it is good."

The two walked straight along the secret path, and came to a stairway that climbed upwards.Walking up the steps step by step, you will come under a sealed stone slab.

Li Yuqi walked in the front, bent halfway, and pushed up hard, the stone slab covering it began to shake, revealing a thin crack.

Suddenly, two voices of conversation came from the garden of Dongling Pavilion.

Li Yuqi turned around quickly, and made a silent movement towards Gu Zixuan who was behind him.Gu Zixuan understood.

Voices came from outside the door, one was strong and powerful, while the other was strange.

"My lord, you have to be more careful these days, and you must not make any further disturbances." The man with a sharp voice said.

"I know. I don't know how many eyes are staring at me now, so naturally we have to pay attention to every move."

"There is also the matter of the little princess..."

The two people outside the door slowly stepped up and walked away, their voices became smaller and smaller, and they could not be heard after that.
