Chapter 229 The Goal of the Imperial Court

While both sides were on alert, Wu Qishan couldn't hold back his anger.

Although he was shocked that Xu Ning received his full blow just now.

But in Wu Qishan's eyes, all this was just Xu Ning's luck.

A person whose strength can only be changed ten times cannot be his opponent in any case.

So Wu Qishan stretched out his hand, and the sword knocked off by Xu Ning immediately flew back to his hand.

Wu Qishan's eyes first lingered on Lianqing, as if he was confirming something through Lianqing's appearance.

Realizing his eyes, Xu Ning hurriedly pulled Lianqing off the stone and protected him behind him.

Except for Xu Ning, Haiji and Yasha, who could not be seen by anyone else, also followed Xu Ning's movements and followed Lianqing to walk behind Xu Ning.

This move made Wu Qishan turn his attention to Xu Ning again.

Wu Qishan narrowed his eyes and looked at the young man in front of him.

Xu Ning, who had been disguised and disguised, looked ordinary, which dispelled Wu Qishan's doubts.

It is almost acquiescence that such an ordinary person cannot make any big waves no matter how hard he tries.

It's not that Wu Qishan judges people based on their appearance. If Xu Ning had extraordinary strength, Wu Qishan wouldn't have such thoughts.

It's just that Xu Ning still hides his own strength. In Wu Qishan's view, he is not a young man who has been replaced ten times, but just a young man who has been replaced four times.

But since he wants to stop his plans and actions, he can only get rid of him first.

Wu Qishan was seen waving the sword in his hand again and launched a fierce attack on Xu Ning.

With the lessons learned from the past, even if Wu Qishan thinks that Xu Ning's strength is average, it just depends on luck.

But every move he made this time still used a lot of his strength.

However, Wu Qishan still underestimated the enemy.

Xu Ning still blocked his attack easily, as if everything was expected by him.

This made Wu Qishan frown. He had obviously used the same method to deal with people who were much better than Xu Ning.

But I didn't expect that I couldn't handle Xu Ning like this.

Seeing Xu Ning's ease, Wu Qishan felt a little annoyed.

The strength in his hand became a little stronger, and every time he took action, the sword light flashed so fast that it was dizzying.

But Xu Ning still dealt with it calmly.

This time Wu Qishan was fierce, almost every move was a fatal blow with all his strength.

If it were an ordinary person, or one whose strength was comparable to that of Wu Qishan, it would be impossible for him to survive for such a long time.

After fighting like this for a while, Wu Qishan finally realized that Xu Ning was difficult to deal with.

He became more vigilant and stopped his active attacks.

Xu Ning just accepted the move but never made a move. Wu Qishan stopped, and he naturally stood where he was.

But his posture was still like an immovable green mountain, protecting Lian Qing behind him.

Wu Qishan knew that to a certain extent, he was not Xu Ning's opponent on an equal footing.

There is no point in continuing to waste things like this. He has a mission and always likes to cut through the mess quickly.

But he didn't want to give up just like that.

So, he decided to adopt another strategy and tried to impress Xu Ning with words.

"Brother, I know that your strength is extraordinary, and I don't mean to be your enemy."

Wu Qishan said sincerely.

"Actually, this matter is very important to me. It is a task given to me by the superiors, and I cannot refuse.

Although I don’t know why you want to protect her like this.

But our goals are not so conflicting as to be at odds with each other.

That being the case, why don’t we stop and have a good talk? "

Xu Ning frowned and looked at Wu Qishan in front of him.

He knew what Wu Qishan was thinking. This man was different from those cunning guys.

This made Xu Ning secretly vigilant and began to examine Wu Qishan's thoughts.

He knew that Wu Qishan would not let him go for no reason, but he would not let this matter continue to develop, because he knew that Wu Qishan came here for Lian Qing.

With experience in both worlds, Xu Ning knew what kind of place the imperial court was.

It's useless for Wu Qishan to talk easily. As long as the court's attitude is tough, it will be difficult for Wu Qishan to act.

There was no way he could refuse the court's request, which unconsciously made it more difficult for the two of them to talk.

A gentleman speaks but does not use his hands.

If it can be resolved through negotiation, that would be great.

Xu Ning could only talk to Wu Qishan.

"Well, since you are willing to talk, let's talk about it."

Xu Ning said in a deep voice.

When Wu Qishan saw that Xu Ning agreed, he was secretly happy.

He continued:

"Brother, I know you are very strong, but you should also understand that there are many forces in this world that you cannot resist.

If you are willing to give up this time, I can give you some resource compensation so that you can live a better life. "

"I appreciate your kindness."

Xu Ning said coldly.

He knew what Wu Qishan meant, and the power he could not resist was the court.

But this is only for Wu Qishan, Xu Ning doesn't think so.

He is not a member of the imperial court, but it is better to do less than to do more.

"But I can't agree to your request.

Please take back your life. "

Wu Qishan's expression changed. He didn't expect Xu Ning to be so determined.

But Xu Ning didn't say too much. He believed that there was no need to sour the relationship with the imperial army.

While Xu Ning explained the facts to Wu Qishan, he was thinking about how to protect Lianqing without offending the court.

"Can you tell me why the imperial army wanted to capture Lianqing?"

Xu Ning suddenly asked in a deep voice.

Even though he knew it well, Xu Ning still felt that it would be easier to solve the matter if he understood the whole story.

Wu Qishan shook his head and said with a wry smile:

“Man, I really don’t know.

They just ordered us to capture the witch on the green mountain. As for the reason, I don't know. "

Obviously Wu Qishan didn't know Lianqing's identity, but there was no one else on the mountain except Xu Ning and Lianqing.

Anyone can clearly see who the witch on the green mountain is.

This is also the reason why Wu Qishan was able to confirm the target as soon as he came up.

Xu Ning looked at Wu Qishan's eyes and knew that he was not lying.

Wu Qishan has his own ideas and theories, and even a unique way of dealing with things.

But he is obviously not a sinister and cunning person, and it can be seen that he is still very reasonable.

If it were someone else who came to negotiate with Xu Ning this time, the two parties might not negotiate so calmly.

Just through what Wu Qishan said, Xu Ning felt more and more that this matter was not simple.

If the court only came for Qingshan's power, there would be no need to take action against Lianqing.

Or maybe the imperial court felt that Lianqing was the source of Qingshan's power.

Xu Ning, who had not thought about the reason, decided to temporarily put aside the conflict with the imperial army and investigate the truth of the matter. (End of chapter)
