"Nie Guijiang, what are you going to do?" Yu Shiqi vaguely guessed his plan, but he couldn't believe it for a moment.

Will such an ambitious and unwilling to be mediocre and inaction really be willing to give up his life?

Nie Guijiang seemed to see through what Yu Shiqi was thinking and smiled and said, "I will give you the last chance to make a choice, Yu Yanzhi, let the powerful secret sorcerer beside you kill me, or..."

He did not finish the second half of the sentence, but his intentions were self-evident.

"Young Master?" Xuan Yue wanted to ask Yu Shiqi for his opinion.

Yu Shiqi had not yet decided until he was there. Two seniors, Guan Liang and Shu Yuyin, were present, and he felt that it was up to them to make the decision.

However, the people on the Longzhu platform had no time to unify their opinions, and Nie Guijiang had already resolutely leaned back and fell from a hundred feet high.

The incident happened suddenly, and even Xuan Yue didn't react, or she had no intention of stopping it.

She didn't care about Yun Zhongjian's affairs. Anyway, she was destined to be an enemy of Yu Shiqi from Nie Guijiang's position, so she would die if she died.

Yu Shiqi was stunned in place, secretly admiring Nie Guijiang for such courage. Although this man was determined to act against the enemy of Wangchuan and Yunzhongjian, he could make the assassins follow him to death, and have the awareness of becoming a benevolent person if he fails. He is still a man.

Xuan Yue then took over the secret technique and approached Yu Shiqi with concern to check his situation.

Guan Liang and Shu Yuyin looked at each other and rushed to the edge of the platform where Nie Guijiang fell from the dragon pillar and looked down, but because of the night and height, nothing could be seen.

"So high... I should be dead, right?" Shu Yuyin murmured.

"You'll know if there are any corpses." Guan Liang said and walked towards the skylight.

"The guard team, many people wearing torches rushed to Chaotian Palace Square. It seemed to be the Yulin Imperial Guard stationed in the Imperial City..." Shu Yuyin shouted, "It is probably not suitable for us to go down at this time..."

The rebels and the imperial guards may soon confront this square. As Yunzhongjian, they will be in danger of being involved in the battlefield if they leave the dragon pillar at this time.

"Are we just trapped on it and watched the emperor become a battlefield?" Guan Liang beat his chest in anger.

"It's over, and the sword in Yunzhong can no longer control the situation." Shu Yuyin sighed, "We should prepare to change the dynasty and clean up the mess."

Yu Shiqi listened to the conversation between them and did not choose to stay where he was. He gently broke free from Xuan Yue's support and walked towards the kites left by the assassins on the ground step by step.

"Young Master... are you serious?" Xuan Yue asked nervously after him.

"I'm going to chase Xiao Xihong." Yu Shiqi said affirmatively.

Guan Liang and Shu Yuyin turned around when they heard the sound and found that Yu Shiqi had picked up a kite from the ground.

"By the way, there is another way!" Shu Yuyin looked happy and asked hurriedly: "Yu Yanzhi, is there any extra thing?"

Yu Shiqi nodded. He had just checked the remaining kites, and there were only three that could be used intact.

Guan Liang turned his worries into joy, but he soon raised concerns about Yu Shiqi's actions: "Was the person you are planning to chase to the imperial city?"

"That's right. He is a member of the 'residual soldiers', a general, and has been in the army to the north and has very good skills. Such a person should have led the team to attack the city, but for some reason he left the large army and acted alone." Yu Shiqi said his thoughts, "I still can't understand his intentions, so I can't let him ignore it."

Shu Yuyin said to Yu Shiqi: "But breaking into the imperial city is also a taboo for Yunzhongjian. The cooperative relationship between the Wuwu Sect and the imperial court has always been very subtle."

"I know, so I'll hide my identity."

Guan Liang frowned: "Then what name do you use to deal with that Xiao Xihong?"

Yu Shiqi replied seriously: "I may not be enemies of him."

Guan Liang and Shu Yuyin's expressions changed after hearing this.

"Yu Yanzhi, what do you mean?" Guan Liang asked anxiously.

"I will confirm Xiao Xihong's purpose first, maybe I will stand on his side."

"Are you crazy? The 'residual soldiers' are attacking the imperial capital now. They are rebels and rebels!"

"Senior, is our Wuwu Sect always standing on the justice side?" Yu Shiqi suddenly asked.

"Of course! What the hell do you want to say!"

"So is the empire just in treating the emperors and soldiers who have won the Northern Expedition over the years?"

Guan Liang was stunned. He couldn't accept this, nor could he accept it.

Yun Zhongjian did not interfere with Chen Lin's internal affairs. All these things that happened within the high-level officials of the court were chosen by the villa. The battlefield they fought for over the years has always been the world and has never surpassed it.

"Yu Yanzhi..." Shu Yuyin looked at Yu Shiqi with worry, "Everything and justice cannot be obtained at times... At this time, as believers of the Desolate Sect, we can only choose to protect the righteousness. Rong Xia collapsed and the war ended, and this great era of Beining should usher in its curtain call. Whether it is the remnants or the emperor, the price of upholding justice for them may be greater than the sacrifices made in all the wars that span the entire 17 years of Beining!"

Yu Shiqi naturally understood this truth. From the moment the emperor was seized and imprisoned under Longling, he and the soldiers of the Northern Expedition Sect who followed him were actually destined to be unable to return to the glorious moment in the past. So what Xiao Xihong said before leaving just now, "We must regain the glory of Beining and continue it." He actually didn't believe it at all, and even felt a little pitiful and sad.

But isn’t it a blessing to have a career that makes you willingly devote yourself to?

What Yu Shiqi wanted to help was not Xiao Xihong, but what he wanted to help was actually Zhonglingqi.

Although he didn't know much about Zhonglingqi's friendship with the emperor when he was young, he could feel it from his tone and expression when he mentioned the past several times inadvertently, Zhonglingqi felt a certain guilt and regret for his choice to retreat bravely and not follow the emperor to accompany him on the journey of the northern expedition.

Of course, this does not mean that Zhonglingqi regretted that he chose to return to Wuyue Countryside with Aunt Xiaozhou. Yu Shiqi could understand that complex mood. As the saying goes, "I want fish, and bear's paws are also what I want." It's just that both cannot be obtained.

When every man is young, he can hold a sword and hold a life and death, and he will have some ideas about making achievements and leaving a name for history. Moreover, it is considered a small matter to be a commander of the Jinyiwei with the merits of Zhonglingqi.

Yu Shiqi still remembers that when he returned from the Western Wilderness, Zhongling Qi wanted to come to the imperial capital to change the murals in the imperial tomb for him. He saw those murals last night. Even someone like him who had no deep understanding of the Northern Expedition and had never been fanatical, he felt that the murals were unfair to the emperor. The reason why Zhongling Qi had this idea was that he wanted to make up for the guilt he had felt towards the emperor for many years.

"Everything and justice cannot be both... Senior, I have understood this principle long ago." Yu Shiqi smiled faintly at Shu Yuyin, and then changed the subject: "But I don't agree with giving up justice every time for justice, just like I don't agree with the decision to sacrifice a certain person or a small number of people to save the majority of people. Because sacrifice is only noble when willingly! The emperor and the soldiers of the Northern Expedition have no fault, but they have to sacrifice them for the high-sounding righteousness. I don't agree with such a sacrifice and such a prosperous era! If I agree with such sacrifice, how should we deal with it when the court is determined to sacrifice the Desolate Sect?"

Guan Liang pressed his hand on the hilt of the knife and said sternly: "Yu Yanzhi! Your thoughts are already very dangerous! Even if you have the special seal granted by the sect leader, I have to stop you!"

The girl in a black veil dress stood between Yu Shiqi and Guan Liang with her right arm in her chin, and coldly threatened: "If you dare to draw a sword at him, I will take action immediately."

"Carry up, Team Guan... calm down," Shu Yuyin pressed Guan Liang's shoulder, "It's not the time for internal fighting now! Besides, that girl is an extremely powerful secret sorcerer, we have no chance of winning."

Xuan Yue smiled at Shu Yuyin: "It's good that you understand. I have no intention of hurting others. I just hope Mr. Yu is safe and sound."

"Yue'er, thank you." Yu Shiqi turned around and looked at Xuan Yue.

"Go quickly." Xuan Yue waved her hand to him, "Let's go and do it, I'm your back."

Yu Shiqi laughed silently, grabbed the kite and jumped out of the dragon pillar, and rode the wind toward the imperial city.

Nanfeng is no longer as strong as before. He is not moving in the air at a fast speed, but there is still no problem falling into the imperial city.
