Chapter 263: Danger
"Spare his life!"
At the critical moment, Lin Fangda no longer cared about Luo Tianjin's orders. He roared suddenly, drew his sword from its sheath, glared with a pair of blood-red tiger eyes, and pounced into the field with his fangs and claws.
"on!"
While Leng Yiyi and the other three were stunned for a moment, Xunzhen suddenly shouted an order, and Abaolu instantly understood it. But before he could make a move, Tang Cong, who could no longer hold back, flew out first.
With his extraordinary lightness skills, Tang Cong was like an arrow shot from a bow, leaving a blurry figure in the air. Finally, before Sikong Zhu could smash Liu Xunyi's head, he took the lead and pulled Liu Xunyi out from the brink of life and death.
Even so, Sikong Zhu's lightning-fast palm still slid away, brushing against Liu Xunyi's forehead. Although it did not injure the vital parts, the strong and powerful palm force still made Liu Xunyi's head numb. A piece of scalp on the forehead, along with a few strands of hair, was rubbed off by Sikong Zhu's palm wind, revealing a bloody and red mess.
In an instant, the bluestone bricks where Liu Xunyi had just been were smashed into powder by Sikong Zhu's palm.
If Tang Cong had not acted in time, with Sikong Zhu's palm power, Liu Xunyi's head would have been smashed into mud.
"Lin Fangda, come back!"
At this moment, Lin Fangda turned a deaf ear to Luo Tianjin's order. He rushed to Liu Xunyi and Tang Cong with a steel knife in hand, staring at Leng Yiyi and the other three fiercely like a beast protecting its calf.
Lin Fangda ignored the surprised looks of the crowd and was not afraid of the terrifying momentum of Leng Yiyi and the other three. He gritted his teeth and roared, "If you want to kill my brothers, then you have to step over my body first!"
"And me!" Tang Cong was not willing to be outdone. He drew out his sword and stood beside Lin Fangda with a fierce look on his face. Together, the two of them protected Liu Xunyi, who had survived the disaster, behind them.
Seeing this, Abaolu wanted to step forward, but was suddenly stopped by Xunzhen. She shook her head gently without saying a word, indicating that she would wait and see what would happen.
In the field, Leng Yiyi pointed the Ice Heart Sword at Lin Fangda without hesitation and said in a serious tone: "You two are looking for death!"
"If your head is gone, it's just a scar the size of a bowl. Why should you be afraid of death?"
Just now, Lin Fangda was impatient and acted impulsively without considering the consequences. Now, he has gradually calmed down. Facing four top masters, it would be a lie to say that he was not nervous.
However, things have come to this point, and Lin Fangda has no way out. He can only grit his teeth and fight to the end.
"Lord Luo!" Jin Fuyu cast a meaningful look at Luo Tianjin, and asked with a smile, "I wonder what this means?"
First, Liu Xunyi acted on his own will, and then Lin Fangda and Tang Cong disobeyed orders.
The Xianwang Mansion had been causing such ridiculous things time and again, which made Luo Tianjin feel that his dignity was gone and he was ashamed, so his face was gloomy and a little scary.
"Lin Fangda, Tang Cong, what are you doing?" Deng Changchuan shouted angrily, "You have no respect for your elders and no rules. Wait and see how I deal with you in the future. Get back here right now!"
"Fifth Master, Xunyi is my sworn brother. We swore to each other that we would not be born on the same day, month, or year, but would rather die on the same day." Lin Fangda said indignantly, "Now that my brother is in trouble, how can I, as his eldest brother, stand by and watch him die?"
"Save him?" Huang Yulang snorted coldly, "With your mediocre skills, can you save him?"
"If we can't save him, we have to save him!"
At this moment, Lin Fangda was like a turtle eating a weight, he was determined.
He ignored the contemptuous looks of the crowd and said word by word: "I, Lin Fangda, am a rough man, with a dull mind and poor martial arts skills. I cannot compare with the heroes present here. I don't understand the great principles, but I know that since we are brothers in this life, we must live together and die together! Whether I can save you or not, as the eldest brother, I must stand in front of my brothers. Even if I die, I have to die first!"
After saying that, Lin Fangda turned his head and looked at the frightened Liu Xunyi, grinning and said, "Xunyi, big brother is incompetent. I know that I can't save your life from the four of them today. It's big brother who is sorry for you. I hope you don't blame me... Big brother will go first later. I can't save you from the water and fire when I'm alive. After I die, I will explore the road to the underworld for you, so that you can go more steadily. Hehe..."
"Count me in! We'll keep each other company on the road to the underworld. Hehe..."
In fact, Tang Cong was a little timid in his heart, but the situation was pressing, and he finally chose to sacrifice his life for justice, which made him look like a man of steel.
"Brother, Tang Cong..."
Liu Xunyi, who had calmed down a little, first used his internal energy to force out the silver needles that had pierced his acupuncture points one by one, and then he gritted his teeth and stood up, enduring the severe pain from the wound.
Liu Xunyi held the sword in one hand and placed the other on Lin Fangda's shoulder, chuckling, "I originally thought that the code of conduct in the martial arts world was just a scam to deceive the world and steal reputation, but now it seems that I was wrong again... Your loyalty to me is as high as the mountains and the seas, but unfortunately... I can only repay you in the next life..."
"Looking for clothes!"
"Master..."
"Go down!" Liu Xunyi took a deep breath, as if trying to calm himself down, and waved his hand slightly, "I won't let you accompany me to die in vain. Everything that happened today is my own fault, and it has nothing to do with you!"
"Do not……"
"If you are still stubborn, then you will die together!"
Without waiting for Lin Fangda to refute, Qin Tianjiu suddenly sneered, and then flipped the short knife from his palm, flashing a cold light, and suddenly it was in front of Lin Fangda who was caught off guard. The sharp tip of the knife went straight to Lin Fangda's heart, and the speed was so fast that he had no room to dodge.
"Brother be careful!"
At the critical moment, Liu Xunyi's eyes suddenly changed. He pulled Lin Fangda behind him with his left hand, and at the same time, he drew his sword with his right hand, facing the whistling blade.
"Master, I..."
"Tang Cong, take him away!"
Before the panicked Tang Cong could utter a word, Liu Xunyi urged him on and then swung his sword to fight with Qin Tianjiu.
At this moment, Lin Fangda's face was filled with rage. He wanted to help Liu Xunyi, but unexpectedly, Si Kongzhu suddenly blocked his way.
"Considering the favor of Palace Master Luo, I don't want to embarrass you. Don't push your luck. You don't know what's good for you."
"Old man, you..." "Tang Cong, what are you waiting for?"
Suddenly, Liu Xunyi's imminent roar came again: "Are you going to go against me too?"
Tang Cong struggled internally and looked hesitant. After hesitating for a long time, he finally made up his mind, grabbed Lin Fangda who was cursing non-stop, and walked quickly off the court.
"Tang Cong, let me go!"
Lin Fangda was concerned about Liu Xunyi's safety, so he was furious at Tang Cong's obstruction and yelled, "If anything happens to Xunyi, I will skin you alive... Let go! Let me go!"
"The sect leader has ordered that I can't let you go and die in vain..." Tang Cong hugged Lin Fangda around the waist, allowing his fists to rain down on him. Tang Cong still gritted his teeth and persisted, refusing to let go even if he died.
At the same time, when Tang Cong saw Liu Xunyi once again trapped and struggling, he was overwhelmed with emotions and grief, and couldn't help but cry.
"Master, it's all Tang Cong's fault. I'm sorry for you..."
Everyone sighed inwardly at this, but no one said much.
Rules are rules. People in the underworld are bound by their words. How can they go back on their word?
"Let me go! If you continue to fight, Xunyi will surely die..."
"Liu Xunyi won't die today!"
Just when the battle was about to reach a desperate situation, a cold voice suddenly came from mid-air.
Then, a white figure as fast as lightning flashed out from mid-air, and with the help of red clouds and strong wind, it rushed into the martial arts field in a blink of an eye.
At the same time, a ruthless sword with a dazzling cold light was unsheathed. After it swept away Tang Yu's hidden weapon for Liu Xunyi, it turned around to help him block Leng Yiyi's sneak attack.
In a flash, Leng Yiyi and the other three withdrew their attacks, and the man in white landed lightly beside Liu Xunyi.
The man who came had a cold expression and an arrogant attitude. He was the "ruthless swordsman" Tang Afu.
"You? You... finally came."
Tang Afu's appearance made Liu Xunyi stunned at first, and then he breathed a sigh of relief as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders.
"Liu Xunyi, are you really not afraid of death? If I had come a step later, I would probably have had to collect your body." Tang Afu said calmly, "I have brought you the person you wanted. Although he is not the one who ambushed and killed Chen Yong, he is the same as the murderer. Therefore, from now on, the debt between you and me is written off and we owe each other nothing!"
"Last night, Long Yu told me that someone robbed three leaders of the Huma Gang on the way. I guessed at that time that person must be you."
Liu Xunyi's face turned pale, his forehead was covered with cold sweat, his eyes were blurry, and he seemed extremely tired. He spoke weakly, like a sickly person who was about to die.
"He is... 'Ruthless Swordsman' Tang Afu?"
At this moment, many people in the arena had already seen through Tang Afu's identity. With a shout, the silent martial arts arena suddenly became lively.
"Tang Afu? Isn't he from Jueqing Valley? Why is he here?"
"What a courage! Today, the leaders of various martial arts sects are here, and he dares to show up? Isn't he afraid that he may not come back?"
"This person is a disciple of a heretic. Why did he want to save Liu Xunyi?"
"Maybe... Liu Xunyi is secretly colluding with Jueqing Valley, so he deliberately put on a good show today."
"What exactly is their purpose?"
"Whatever the purpose is, it's definitely not a good one!"
……
For a moment, everyone was talking to each other in a whisper. There was a commotion in the field, and the disciples of various factions were discussing and speculating on the purpose of Tang Afu's appearance and his relationship with Liu Xunyi.
"Tang Afu?" Luo Tianjin frowned and asked in a deep voice, "What are you doing here?"
Qing Feng echoed, "Everyone present today is from the righteous martial arts world. How dare you, a disciple of a heretic, show up?"
"Jueqing Valley once killed two of my Qingcheng Sect disciples. Since you are here today, you should give me an explanation!" Zuo Hongxuan shouted coldly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the martial arts field became boiling again.
As one of the four major heretical sects in the martial arts world, Jueqing Valley has accumulated more or less conflicts with these famous and upright sects over the years.
In the past, all the disciples of Jueqing Valley were elusive. Today, Tang Afu dared to appear in public, which would naturally attract the condemnation of everyone.
"Tang Afu, what is your purpose for coming here today? Tell the truth!"
"That's right! What's your relationship with Liu Xunyi? Did you come to Qin's house to save him?"
"I am not interested in your grievances, and it has nothing to do with Liu Xunyi. I came here today because someone asked me to do so." Tang Afu ignored the grievances of the crowd and said coldly with a blank expression, "Someone wants to talk to you. After you finish listening, we can discuss it later."
"who?"
"Grandma Peach Blossom!"
