Chapter 302 One goes down and the other goes up
"what?"

The old man's sudden words startled everyone present.

Luo Tianjin looked the old man up and down with confused eyes, and said hesitantly: "Forgive my ignorance, I don't seem to know you, and I have never offended you."

"Although you don't know me, you have offended me." The old man said jokingly, "It's just that you don't know it!"

"This..." Luo Tianjin became more and more confused, and asked back: "Is there any misunderstanding?"

The old man curled his lips and said, "Whether it is a misunderstanding or not depends on whether you know how to respect me."

"What do you mean?" Luo Tianjin was confused and asked, "May I ask your name, senior?"

"It doesn't matter what your name is, it's just a title. How about... let's have a duel first?" The old man stretched his muscles while staring at Luo Tianjin with interest, jokingly saying, "I haven't fought with anyone for many years. It's said that 'the disciple surpasses the master'. I've heard that you are the leader in the martial arts world today, and I just happened to have mastered my skills, so I'd like to borrow you to test you. How about it?"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, Deng Quan and the others all changed their expressions and looked wary.

To be able to say such a thing in front of the Northern Sage King, this person must be extraordinary, if not a madman. Just now, he was able to easily separate Luo Tianjin and Yan Wuji, and this move alone showed us a glimpse of his ability.

"If you want to discuss things with the Northern Sage King, you can visit him openly some other day." Deng Quan said in a deep voice, "The Palace Master has important matters to attend to tonight, so I'm afraid he won't have time to deal with you."

"This..." Hearing this, the old man hesitated, thought for a moment, and then slowly nodded and said, "I am not a person who does not understand reason. This exchange... can be arranged another day."

"So good..."

"Wait a minute!" Without waiting for Luo Hongxuan to respond, the old man waved his hand and said, "But there is another matter that cannot be delayed."

"What's the matter?" Luo Tianjin asked curiously.

"You captured my people, you must return them to me tonight." The old man chuckled and said bluntly, "If you let them go, there will be a misunderstanding between you and me. If you don't let them go, you and I will be mortal enemies."

The old man's words not only stunned Luo Tianjin, but also made Yan Wuji feel strange.

"who?"

"Jacaranda."

"Huaying?" Luo Tianjin's eyes moved, and he suddenly realized, "You are talking about...Grandma Taohua?"

"That's right." The old man replied, "Give her to me and I will leave immediately. Otherwise, I will cause trouble for you tonight."

Having said that, the old man cast a playful look at Yan Wuji and the others, sneering, "Looking at the current situation, it seems that you are in a lot of trouble. I think you don't want to have another opponent at this critical juncture, right?"

"You want to save Granny Taohua?" Yan Wuji asked in astonishment, "Are you the Lord of Jueqing Valley?"

"Lord of the Heartless Valley?" The old man smiled contemptuously and shook his head. "Dragons fly across the four seas, and phoenixes soar into the sky. When have you ever seen a golden dragon and a colorful phoenix go together? Only mediocre and weak people in the world will gather together to show off their power. This is true for both famous and upright sects and martial arts heretics. I claim that I am not a pig, dog, cow or sheep, so I disdain to associate with others. I am used to being an idle cloud and wild crane, so I have no sect or school!"

Hearing this, Luo Tianjin could not help but feel angry, his face gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Grandma Taohua is a guest invited by Luo. No one can take her away without my permission."

"It seems that you are not willing to accept my toast? I..."

"Wait a minute, senior!" Before the old man finished speaking, Tang Xuan, who was captured by the sword, suddenly changed his expression and said coldly, "We have the same goal as you, senior, and we also want to rescue the people in Jueqing Valley. Why don't we join forces to fight?"

"I only want Huaying. I'm not interested in anyone else." The old man shook his head.

"That's wrong." Yan Wuji retorted, "Although you only want to save one person, you have to face the entire Xianwang Mansion. If you fight alone, both you and the enemy will be destroyed and you will fail. Why don't we join forces and rescue everyone in one fell swoop? After that, Huaying will be yours and the others will be ours."

"This method... is not a bad idea."

"Humph!"

Seeing the old man and Yan Wuji hit it off, Luo Tianjin could not help but get angry and said in a harsh voice: "What do you think my Xianwang Mansion is? You can come and go as you please? This is outrageous!"

Before he finished speaking, countless disciples from the Xianwang Palace came out from all directions. At first glance, it was a sea of ​​black, and it was impossible to count how many people there were.

"To shoot a man, shoot his horse first; to capture a thief, capture the leader first." Yan Wuji said in a deep voice, "Your Excellency and I will join forces to defeat Luo Tianjin. As long as we capture Luo Tianjin, even if we send another 10,000 troops, they will be nothing but a pile of loose sand and will be useless."

"Leave Deng Quan to me." Long Yu grinned. "The Xianwang Mansion is empty tonight. The only masters who can come on stage are Luo Tianjin and Deng Quan. As long as we can contain them, the others will be defeated without any attack."

After that, Long Yu reminded Hu Zhen again: "You three don't need to fight, just fight your way out and rescue the people in Jueqing Valley. If you can get help from Tang Afu and his gang, it won't be a difficult task tonight even if you massacre the Xianwang Mansion. Haha..."

Long Yu's words were like a knife, piercing straight into Luo Tianjin's heart.

Although the enemy was not numerous, they were all top-notch fighters. If Tang Afu and the "Eight Wonders" could help them, given the current situation at the Xianwang Mansion, even if they were not slaughtered, there would definitely be heavy casualties.

Luo Tianjin had calculated everything, but he missed one step. He was overconfident, so he sent out all the masters in the mansion. But he never expected that someone would dare to take advantage of the situation and attack Huanglong.

"Bloody Xianwang Mansion?" Luo Tianjin was nervous, but on the surface he was calm and unmoved. He sneered, "In the past ten years, no one has dared to boast like this! Long Yu, you hunted down my disciples, held my daughter hostage, and tonight you said such ignorant and stupid words. I think you are tired of living!"

"Luo Tianjin, are you scaring me?" Long Yu didn't care about Luo Tianjin's threat at all, and said contemptuously, "It has been more than ten years since I first went on an expedition with the army. In the past ten years, no one dared to boast in front of me. Do you know why? Because everyone who wanted to kill me was killed by me in the end. I killed so many people that I can't even remember how many people I have killed over the years. While you were living a peaceful life, I was eating meat and drinking blood among the dead. Tell me... will I be scared by you? Haha..."

Long Yu's smile was like a demon from hell, terrifying and daunting. "Dad, what should we do now?" Luo Hongxuan had never experienced such a scene before, and he was a little panicked. He looked at the old man and Yan Wuji cautiously, and whispered, "What if they really rescued Tang Afu and his gang? Wouldn't we be attacked from all sides?"

"Why are you panicking?" Luo Tianjin said angrily, "You are in your own house, what do you have to be afraid of?"

"But……"

"Tang Su, listen to my order!" Without waiting for Luo Hongxuan to explain, Luo Tianjin suddenly ordered, "I want you to trap the three leaders of the Huma Gang in the East Courtyard at all costs. Don't let them find Tang Afu."

"Yes!"

"Deng Quan, Long Yu is in your hands."

"Don't worry, Lord!" At this moment, Deng Quan's sinister eyes were fixed on Long Yu. He agreed without turning his head, "If Long Yu wants to escape, he has to step over my dead body. However, Yan Wuji and the uninvited guest..."

"I can handle it myself!"

Although Luo Tianjin's answer was calm, he knew in his heart that he had no chance of defeating Yan Wuji and the mysterious old man alone. However, due to the current urgent situation, as the master of the Xianwang Mansion, if he could not take charge of the overall situation, the morale would inevitably be frustrated, and the consequences would be disastrous.

"All disciples, listen up!" Luo Tianjin said coldly, "Capture all these people. If they resist, kill them without mercy! In short, we must not let them leave the East Court alive!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

In an instant, the sound of killing in Prince Xian’s Mansion shook the sky, echoing in the night sky of Luoyang City and lingering for a long time.

"There are more than a thousand disciples in the Xianwang Mansion. Even if there are no masters, they can tire us to death." Yan Wuji said solemnly, "We are only here to save people. There is no need to get entangled with them!"

The old man laughed and said jokingly, "Leave Luo Tianjin to me, and you can help them find the person. Remember your promise, after you find the person, Huaying will belong to me. If you dare to lie to me, I will tear you into pieces."

Hearing this, Yan Wuji couldn't help but feel secretly delighted, and nodded repeatedly, saying, "Don't worry, sir. Give me an incense stick of time, and I will definitely be able to rescue the people in Jueqing Valley."

"Haha...Luo Tianjin, do you dare to take my palm?"

Before he finished his words, the old man flashed out, turned into a string of afterimages, and swung his palm straight towards Luo Tianjin's face.

"Humph!"

Facing the old man who took the initiative, Luo Tianjin's eyes suddenly changed, and then he snorted angrily, flew up, and instantly appeared in front of the old man, stretched out his palm in the air, and directly met the old man's palm.

"boom!"

The palms were like gusts of wind and lightning, and their force was like thunder. The moment the two palms touched, the entire East Courtyard trembled violently.

Immediately afterwards, ripples of energetic energy appeared, like sudden waves, radiating out in all directions fiercely and swiftly. Wherever it passed, swords and knives broke, tiles and bricks shattered, and everyone turned their internal energy to resist the remaining power.

The disciples of the Xianwang Mansion, who had low martial arts skills, leaned forward to dodge. Even so, some were still unable to avoid it and were swept away by the ripples of the energy. Their bodies slammed heavily against the wall, their blood vessels churning, their internal organs burning, blood gushing out of their mouths and noses uncontrollably, and finally their heads tilted, their life or death unknown.

The power of a palm was so terrifying. If Luo Tianjin and the old man both exerted their full strength, the entire East Courtyard would be reduced to ruins in a moment.

"on!"

Lin Fang roared angrily, was the first to get up from the ground, then waved his steel knife wildly, and rushed towards Hu Zhen and the other two desperately.

"Oh!"

Suddenly, a loud noise was heard from a distance, followed by a chaotic shouting and cursing, which startled everyone.

"What's that sound?" Luo Hongxuan stepped forward quickly and shouted at the disciples who were rushing in panic, "Why are you panicking?"

"Sir, someone broke through the door and forced his way in. We...we can't stop him!"

Luo Hongxuan was shocked when he heard this and asked in surprise: "How many troops have come?"

"There is only one." The disciple replied tremblingly, "But that person is like a ferocious beast, looks like an evil ghost, holds two huge axes to split mountains, and chops and kills everyone he meets. He is fierce and unstoppable. At this moment... the front yard is in chaos, and it seems that he is about to kill his way to the main hall."

"what?"

Upon hearing this, everyone in the Xianwang Mansion, led by Luo Tianjin, showed horror on their faces.

On the other hand, Yan Wuji's eyes quietly showed a hint of pride, and he sneered: "Fortunately, I noticed it beforehand and secretly kept a trick, otherwise I would have been caught in the trap."

At the same time, Long Yu, who was fighting fiercely with Deng Quan, couldn't help but raise a bloodthirsty grin on his face.

"Ya Kun has arrived, I have nothing to worry about!"
