Although Weiyin Hanfeng did not touch Elder Tu's body, the cold sword energy still caused a line of blood to appear on his forehead from top to bottom. The black cloth covering his mouth split from it, revealing what was hidden under it.
ugly harelip.
Forced by his survival instinct, he let go of Bai Lixuan and retreated quickly. Teng Yining knew in his heart that this sword was destined to hit the air, so he dexterously spun in mid-air and landed on the ground. With a tap of his toes, he flew forward again.
The original intention of her first sword was to rescue Baili Xuan from the opponent's hands, so she paid great attention to controlling the force when striking to avoid accidental injury. Now that the opponent has lost the hostage, she has no scruples, and in the blink of an eye with the blessing of Yun Ti Feng Shen
He caught up with the retreating elder.
"Catch him alive!" Zhong Lingqi shouted anxiously from behind. He was really afraid that Teng Yining, who had gained the power to control spirits, would kill the guy easily.
When Teng Yining heard his voice, he had already thrust out a sword that he was determined to win, but he temporarily changed the move to miss the vital point, and opened a bloody gash on Elder Tu's shoulder.
Elder Tu was horrified to find that the other party's speed was far faster than his own. Although he kept dodging and trying to stay away from the dangerous black sword in the woman's hand, the shadow of the sword kept appearing beside him.
As the woman kept stabbing the sword, the wounds on his body continued to increase. Although they were not fatal injuries, the continued pain and bleeding were no joke.
Perhaps thinking that he had relieved himself enough, Teng Yining withdrew his sword and hit the elder Tutu in the face, slamming him against the wall.
Zhong Lingqi quickly stepped forward and tapped a few of the opponent's acupuncture points, then breathed a sigh of relief and turned to say thank you to Teng Yining.
"Don't you two cooperate very well? You are so polite." Yu Shiqi, who was watching the whole process, came in at this time and expressed his dissatisfaction with Zhong Lingqi.
Teng Yining and Zhong Lingqi looked at each other, and each found that there was a bit of embarrassment in the other's eyes.
"Is Miss Baili okay?" Zhong Lingqi took the initiative to change the subject by caring about Baili Xuan's condition.
"Mr. Zhong, I'm fine, thank you." Bai Lixuan's expression looked very calm. She seemed to have become accustomed to the repeated attacks on herself.
Teng Yining then asked Zhong Lingqi to take Yu Shiqi and Baili Xuan away first, while she herself would stay to help deal with the aftermath.
Zhong Lingqi put forward a different opinion. He said that he planned to torture the guy first, but instead asked Yu Shiqi and Bai Lixuan to stay with Teng Yining.
The two finally reached an agreement to implement Zhong Lingqi's decision. After all, Yunzhong Sword's stronghold in Jincheng was almost paralyzed at the moment, and it would be more appropriate and efficient to leave the interrogation information to Wang Chuan.
"Zhi'er, come here and help."
"Hey, okay."
Bai Lixuan didn't wait any longer, and together with Yu Shiqi, moved the injured person to the hut at the back, where there were some reserved medicinal materials that could be used for healing.
The injuries of the three Yunzhong Swordsmen were all serious. Although they were not life-threatening, at least these three people had to rest quietly for a long time. It was not easy for those people to make such a fuss and destroy Jincheng's contact point.
It was a small matter, so Teng Yining decided to return to the villa to discuss countermeasures with other sect leaders.
She had a vague hunch that the "god" the other party called was not a simple organization. If she couldn't kill it while it was still in its infancy, it might become a serious problem in the future.
Yu Shiqi and Bai Lixuan stayed outside the hut in relative silence. Although they were looking at each other, their eyes looked dull and dull, and they obviously had their own concerns.
"I have caused you so much trouble along the way. I never expected..." Bai Lixuan sighed sadly, "I originally thought that escaping from the cage that imprisoned me would be a very happy thing. From now on, the sky will be brighter and the sea will be brighter.
But I seem to have been causing the people around me to suffer, and so many people have died because of me.”
"That's not your fault. You don't need to take so much responsibility on yourself." Yu Shiqi said, "Those who want to kidnap you and do whatever it takes to do so deserve to die. They will not succeed. The Sword in the Cloud will be shattered.
them."
Bai Lixuan seemed a little unsure. She looked at Yu Shiqi and found that his eyes were full of trust in Yunzhongjian.
"You can believe what I say. After all, I was once a member of Yunzhongjian." Yu Shiqi showed a proud look in his eyes when he said this. "This time they have kicked the iron plate."
Baili Xuan couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh.
She explained to Yu Shiqi who was at a loss: "The way you spoke just now... I quite like it."
Before Yu Shiqi could answer, she added: "Don't misunderstand me. I just think that after experiencing so many things and seeing so many dangers, you can still have a firm belief in justice.
…It’s not easy.”
Yu Shiqi smiled and said nothing. He was indeed like this and always believed in the justice upheld by Yunzhongjian.
The masters of the Desolate Sect all possess peerless martial arts skills, and are as good at the Yunzhong Sword. It is rare for an opponent as terrifying as Yan Guming to be encountered in a century, and ordinary evil heretics cannot shake the order of the world.
After a while, Teng Yining came out of the house and told the two of them: "I have to go to deal with official duties, so you just stay here."
There was bloodshed and murder in the inn, and the government would not sit idly by and ignore it, but Teng Yining had nothing to worry about. Yunzhongjian was a legal organization recognized by the imperial court and was affiliated with the imperial martial arts department, and she had always been the imperial guard.
Military attachés serving as military attachés only need to identify themselves, briefly explain the situation, and then hand it over to the government for handling.
Anyway, Zhong Lingqi had already brought the guy he captured alive for interrogation. With Wangchuan's methods, he shouldn't disappoint anyone.
Then, as Teng Yining expected, after explaining what happened here to the official, she discovered Zhong Lingqi's figure among the crowd attracted to watch the excitement. It seemed that there were too many people and he didn't want to show it.
He was not good at martial arts, so he was squeezed out and had no choice but to wink at her through the wall of people.
Teng Yining walked through the crowd to meet him outside and asked, "Why didn't you call me?"
"Wouldn't you have found me if I didn't call you?" Zhong Lingqi smiled.
Teng Yining couldn't explain why, even though she was separated by a sea of people, she still saw Zhong Lingqi at a glance.
"Are you guilty of something?" Teng Yining knew his temper and character well.
"The Sword in the Cloud belongs to the Imperial Martial Arts Department, and you are also a distinguished military attaché of the imperial court. You are a soldier and I am a thief. Of course I feel guilty..."
"I have not forgotten what you said in the courtyard of the Wangchuan stronghold this morning."
Zhong Lingqi scratched his hair in embarrassment and said, "Before you lead the topic into a dispute, I think it's better for me to report the results of the interrogation to you first."
Teng Yining's expression became serious and he nodded to show that he was listening carefully.
"According to what that guy told me, their organization is called Dragon Blood God Sect. He is one of the Five Elements Elders in the sect and is in charge of Tu Zhi Gui Yuantang."
"That means there are four other guys with similar strength to him?"
"There should be only three of them. I killed one on the river. It seemed to be the elder of Huotang." Zhong Lingqi deliberately talked about his achievements in a casual tone. At the same time, he observed Teng Yining's expression and found that she didn't seem to want anything.
After praising him, he felt a little disappointed and continued to relay the information he had obtained to her.
It is still unknown how the Dragon Blood Cult was established, because the local elder said that he joined the religion relatively late and was ranked last among the elders of the Five Elements. He did not understand this. The organizational structure of the Cult is currently quite simple.
In addition to the leader and the high priest who are almost equal to the leader, directly below are the Five Elements Halls that manage the congregation respectively. The person in charge of each hall is the elder. There are several incense masters under the elders, but those are already unimportant small roles.
Already.
After listening, Teng Yining said: "So the real targets of attention in this so-called Dragon Blood Cult are the leader, the high priest and the five elders? Now that two of the five elders have been eliminated, there are only five masters left.
"
"That's true, but that guy also revealed the news that their leader has recently been recruiting troops to expand the number of followers." Zhong Lingqi said cautiously, "Even if most of them are rotten fish and shrimps, it doesn't matter.
It is excluded that new players will join.”
Teng Yining nodded, thought for a moment, and suddenly teased: "So it seems that the leader is doing the same thing as you. Does he also have an emperor friend who is waiting for him to rescue?"
Zhong Lingqi looked around nervously, and then breathed a sigh of relief when he found no one around, looking at Teng Yining with resentment.
Teng Yining waved his hand, indicating that the matter was over: "I plan to take Baili Xuan to the villa, where she can be absolutely safe and protected. I heard that you intend to take Zhi'er to Wuyue, then go to Yuezhou
We can go together until the border with Wuzhou."
"Actually, I also want to take you with me. You and Xiao Meng haven't seen each other for many years."
"Forget it, now that the situation has progressed, Yun Zhongjian will be busy next." She politely declined the invitation.
"There are so many sect leaders in the Villa who can handle this matter. Can't I ask the Desolate Sect to lend you for a few days? Yi Ning, I want to spend more time with you, a leisurely time that doesn't involve the flash of swords and swords.
." Zhong Lingqi put his hands on her shoulders, with a pleading tone in his tone.
Teng Yining's heart softened, but she still slapped his hand down and warned him sternly: "If you can, say this in front of Xiao Meng."
Seeing Zhong Lingqi lowering his head in silence, she sighed, turned around and walked back.
The crowd in front of the inn has dispersed, and the work of the government officials disposing of the corpse is nearing completion.
Teng Yining took two steps and heard a shout of final abandonment coming from behind him.
