First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 864 Xuanyuan’s Guardian (1st update)

Not to mention Gu Jiao's doubts, Tang Yueshan was also completely out of sorts.

This old ghost king named Xuanyuan Qi is obviously from the same camp as Gu Jiao. The two get along pretty well. One is the general of the Xuanyuan family, and the other is the new commander-in-chief of the Xuanyuan Iron Cavalry.

 Ah, I almost forgot that Xiao Heng is the biological son of the concubine, so this girl and Xuanyuan Qi are actually relatives!

 “Hey, hey, hey! Stop fighting!”

Tang Yueshan rushed over to stop him, but Xuanyuan Qi's second attack was too fierce. His move was a step too late, and the power of that move had already hit Gu Jiao!

Gu Jiao raised her silver spear again to resist.

 In the moment of fighting, even the sparks were rubbed out!

Tang Yueshan didn't know whether to worry about Gu Jiao's safety or whether the Jin army outside would hear their movements.

“Girl, please hold on for a while, I’ll go take a look!”

Tang Yueshan held the child in his arms in a very clumsy manner and ran all the way to the crack outside the cave. He listened carefully to the movements in the back mountain.

The patrolling Jin army has left, probably being transferred to dig tunnels in the village.

 He took a long breath: "Okay, you two continue fighting."

 Uh, no!

 What to fight?

They are all our own!

Tang Yueshan continued to return to the cave to break up the fight.

In such a back and forth, Gu Jiao had already passed seven or eight moves with Xuanyuan Qi. Except for the first two moves, which were barely able to be blocked, Xuanyuan Qi knocked him down with every subsequent move.

When Tang Yueshan came in, she had just been knocked away by Xuanyuan Qi's palm. She hit the rock wall behind her and spit out a mouthful of blood.

Tang Yueshan's tiger body was shaken, wasn't it? This girl had never been so seriously injured during the battle at the border of Zhao Kingdom!

  Is Xuanyuan Qi serious?

 He wants to kill this girl?

are you crazy!

Without thinking too much, Tang Yueshan's eyes dimmed. He flew up and raised his palm to attack Xuanyuan Qi!

Xuanyuan Qi glanced out of the corner of his eye, turned around, and met his palm with a palm.

The terrifying force was like exploding black gunpowder, exploding crazily inside Tang Yueshan's body. The child in his arms cried out, his eyes trembled, and he hurriedly used half of his inner strength to protect the little baby in his arms.

 As a result, Xuanyuan Qi's internal power irresistibly invaded his Dantian.

 He fell to the ground, felt a pain in his chest, and spit out a mouthful of blood.

"Don't come over." Gu Jiao used her silver gun to support her body and stood up. There was no fear in her eyes. She wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and pointed the silver gun at Xuanyuan Qi. "I will defeat him myself."

This is probably the most arrogant thing Tang Yueshan has ever heard in his life.

 Defeating a pervert like Xuanyuan Qi, girl, are you sure your brain is not broken?

There are specialties in martial arts. Tang Yueshan's strength is archery. Even ten Xuanyuan Qi are no match for him in archery competition. However, in a one-on-one fight, Tang Yueshan is not as good as Xuanyuan Qi.

This is not because Tang Yueshan's martial arts is poor, but because Xuanyuan Qi's martial arts are too terrible.

He has entered an incredible realm during the years he has been in Guishan. Even if Long Yi comes, he will not be able to hurt him easily.

Gu Jiao gasped and looked at Xuanyuan Qi with unyielding eyes like a wolf: "At least I managed to hold on to two moves in your hands. Earlier in the cemetery... I couldn't catch even one move. Next, I want to Seriously, you'd better not—"

Snapped!

Before he finished speaking, Xuanyuan Qi knocked him away with his sword.

 Gu Jiao: “…”

Seeing that he was about to hit the stone wall again, Gu Jiao turned around, kicked on the stone wall, used her strength to jump, and attacked Xuanyuan Qi with a spear in hand!

 From now on, she won’t be defensive anymore.

 Offense is the strongest defense!

Gu Jiao shot one shot after another, using Xuanyuan Seven Styles to the extreme.

Tang Yueshan was dumbfounded. The little girl's martial arts skills were much better than those in Zhao Kingdom.

By the way, what kind of marksmanship is this? So powerful! Even Xuanyuan Qi was forced to retreat!

Xuanyuan Qi only retreated briefly, and the next moment he launched a more violent attack on Gu Jiao.

All escape routes are blocked. If Gu Jiao cannot catch his move, she will die under his Qingfeng sword!

 But she has used up all the Xuanyuan Qi moves and has no more moves.

Does Xuanyuan Qi really want to kill her?

 Or are you just trying to scare her?

If it was the latter, then he should have seen that she had reached her limit, and there was no way she would accept his move.

Xuanyuan Qi showed no intention of stopping, and slashed at Gu Jiao's head with a long sword like a rainbow!

 Gu Jiao smelled the breath of death. She could already see her blood splattered three feet, and her head flew out and rolled to the ground.

“Gu Jiaojiao, when you come back, we will get married.”

“Jiaojiao, are you going to fight again?”

 “But fighting is very hard, I don’t want to be too hard!”

“You can only eat three pills a day, don’t eat too much. I’ll be back when you finish them all.”

 …

 She wants to go back...

 She can't die here!

A cold light suddenly appeared in Gu Jiao's eyes, a heat wave rolled through her chest, and her mind exploded. As if driven by instinct, and as if she had practiced countless times, she suddenly held the silver gun in her hand and spun around her head. Turning around, he slashed down Xuanyuan Qi's long sword like a mountain and a sea!

Tang Yueshan's breathing was stagnant!

There was only a crisp sound, the soldiers clashed, sparks flew everywhere, Gu Jiao's spear swiped past Xuanyuan Qi's Qingfeng sword, her toes stepped on the stone wall behind her, flipped in the air, and hit Xuanyuan Qi's eyebrows!

Her speed was suddenly so incredibly fast that even Tang Yueshan could only capture afterimages.

　　逿!

Xuanyuan Qi blocked her spear and strangled her neck with his bare hands: "You lose."

 Gu Jiao: “Not really.”

Xuanyuan Qi frowned, looked down, and saw Gu Jiao holding a dagger in her other hand, pressing it against his Dantian.

Xuanyuan Qi's murderous aura faded and he said calmly: "It's good to have reached this point."

Gu Jiao lost her strength and used her silver spear to support her body.

 She actually lost. Her dagger stabbed his pubic area, which would only seriously injure him. If he broke her neck, she would die on the spot.

Tang Yueshan came back to his senses. He held the child and looked at Xuanyuan Qi with an ugly expression on his face: "After doing this for a long time, are you trying to test her martial arts skills? Then you are too harsh, right? If she can't do that last thing, Two moves, and I have already become a dead soul under your sword!"

Xuanyuan Qi did not speak, but turned around and walked towards the depths of the cave: "All the mechanisms in the passage have been activated, you can leave."

The Black Wind King came over and rubbed his head soothingly against Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao took a breath and looked at Xuanyuan Qi's figure without turning around, feeling an indescribable strangeness in her heart.

Xuanyuan Qi didn't hold back at all just now, as if she was sure...she could use those two moves.

But the Xuanyuan family's marksmanship clearly only has seven styles, and the last two styles were forced out of her haste.

 Is this guy bringing out my potential?

 Other than that, I can't think of any other possibilities.

 After Gu Jiao regained some strength, she turned around to collect the things she had dropped on the ground during the fight.

 “Huh? Why are you missing?”

 She rummaged around.

 “What’s missing?” Tang Yueshan asked.

 “A booklet.” Gu Jiao said.

It was information written down from Gongsun Yu's study. She was afraid that she would forget it, so she drew all the patterns in her mind while waiting for Xuanyuan Qi to wake up.

That is a very important thing, related to the victory of the entire battle, and also related to the lives of hundreds of thousands of people in Pucheng.

"Found it, here!" Gu Jiao bent down and picked up the booklet from a crack in the stone. She opened it and checked to make sure that no page had been missed before she and Tang Yueshan led their respective horses to chase. Climb Xuanyuan Qi.

They entered a relatively tall passage through a stone door, but it was still too narrow to accommodate two people walking side by side.

 In addition, both the Black Wind King and the Black Wind Rider must lower their heads, otherwise it will be difficult to move forward.

The two horses were not trained to drill into tunnels. After entering, the eight-year-old Black Wind Cavalry was the first to become uneasy, and the Black Wind King also felt bursts of discomfort.

Gu Jiao turned around and touched its mane soothingly: "It's okay, boss."

The Black Wind King forced himself to calm down, and Tang Yueshan also whispered to comfort his horse throughout the process. He had never coaxed his own son in this way.

 After walking for an unknown amount of time, they finally arrived at the exit.

Xuanyuan Qi pressed the switch, and the cool moonlight filtered in, and the cool night breeze blew in. Everyone breathed in the fresh air that they had not seen for a long time.

There are ventilation openings in the tunnel, which are connected to the ground and covered by grass or thorns. However, the circulation is poor, and several people are sweating.

 Three men and two horses came out of the tunnel.

 This is an abandoned village, surrounded by mountains on three sides, with the official road to the north.

 They came out of a cowshed, less than a hundred meters away from the official road.

“Then, let’s say goodbye.” Gu Jiao said goodbye to Xuanyuan Qi.

Without saying a word, Xuanyuan Qi came to the side of the Black Wind King, stepped on it with one foot, stepped up his thigh, and sat on it!

Gu Jiao blinked.

Xuanyuan Qi extended his hand to Gu Jiao expressionlessly.

Gu Jiao was stunned, and stretched out her little paw arrogantly: "Aren't you going to follow us? What? You're not going to stay at Ghost Mountain anymore?"

"Changed my mind." Xuanyuan Qi said calmly and pulled Gu Jiao onto the horse.

Gu Jiao sat behind him.

　　Just, quite suddenly.

Black Wind King: Master, it’s time for you to lose weight.

Xuanyuan Qi: I want to eat horse meat tonight.

Black Wind King: ...I made a mistake, come again. Xiao Zhanjiao, it’s time for you to lose weight.

Jiaojiao: (⊙o⊙)
