Chapter 56: Goryeo Assassins
After Shi Feixuan woke up, she said goodbye to Wanwan. She wanted to find some answers herself.
Wan Wan knew that Shi Feixuan was deeply hit this time, and entering the world might help her understand her true heart.
On this day, Su Yu called Ye Gucheng and Jiang Yuyan.
"I will give you a task. Accompany Miss Wan Wan to visit various sects of the Demonic Path. Wan Wan will tell you the specific task."
"If you encounter danger, you can give up the task first. Your own safety is the most important." Su Yu reminded again.
"Yes." The two agreed quickly.
Then the three of them left Jiangdu.
"Yang Guang is coming, otherwise I will go there in person." Su Yu said as he watched the three people leave.
At this time, Hua Manlou asked to see Su Yu.
"Emperor, there are many foreigners in the city recently."
"Foreigners?"
"Yes, I met a few people on the street today. Although they speak the Central Plains language very well, their accents and looks are quite different from ours." Hua Manlou said.
"Any other information?" Su Yu asked.
"I heard them quietly mention the man surnamed Fu, saying they were waiting for them to come." Hua Manlou said.
"Very good, I know who it is." Su Yu nodded.
"Who is it?" Hua Manlou was very curious. He wandered around Yangzhou City every day to collect intelligence.
"Koreans, and they should be Korean assassins." Su Yu said.
Hua Manlou was startled, thought for a while, and said quickly.
"Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty."
"Well, that's right, so you and Xiaofeng keep an eye on this group of people, and as long as they leave the city, you will come back and tell me." Su Yu said.
"Yes." Hua Manlou responded quickly.
"Humph, Korean bastards, so bold." Su Yu snorted coldly.
Two days later, on this day, Yangzhou City was full of soldiers standing on both sides of the road from the city gate to ten miles outside the city.
Many officials at the city gate were waiting here early, and the Emperor of the Great Sui Dynasty was coming.
Many people in the city also gathered around. The people of Yangzhou City had no resentment towards Yang Guang. After all, this place was so prosperous because of him and the Grand Canal he built, which made it more prosperous than Daxing City.
At this time, nearly a hundred people quietly left from the people. These people walked softly, and it was obvious that they were all martial artists. Everyone wore a bamboo hat on their heads. Because people were looking forward, no one paid attention to these people.
"Little Chicken, I'll follow you. You go back and tell the emperor." Hua Manlou said to Lu Xiaofeng in the crowd.
"Be careful, don't rush in. We will be here soon." Lu Xiaofeng said, and hurried back to the city.
Hua Manlou also left the crowd and chased towards the dense forest where the group of people disappeared in front.
A luxurious and exquisite carriage was driving on the official road, with thousands of cavalrymen in front and behind, and many ministers. It was Yang Guang and his party.
In the carriage, the little girl Li Jingxun excitedly lifted the curtain and looked at the soldiers on both sides of the road curiously.
"Oh, there are so many people." Li Jingxun said.
Yang Guang, who was holding a memorial in his hand and reading it, put it down and leaned towards the window.
"Yangzhou City is just a few miles away." Yang Guang touched Li Xiaohai's head and said.
"Ah, Master, I just saw a lot of big boats on the river." Li Xiaohai remembered what he saw when he passed by the canal just now.
"Haha, that's the canal, which runs through the entire Sui Dynasty. I originally planned to come here by official ship, but recently it is the season for selling salt, the canal is busy, and my imperial ship is likely to cause riots." Yang Guang said.
The little girl only understood half of it and nodded obediently.
"Ah..."
"Ah..."
"Plop."
At this moment, the painful groans of soldiers and the sound of falling horses suddenly came from around the carriage.
"Be careful, protect the emperor, there are assassins."
Someone shouted loudly.
Then hundreds of arrows flew out from all around.
"Protect the carriage." Pei Ju's voice came.
"Don't be afraid, kid." Yang Guang hurriedly hugged Li Jingxun, who didn't know what was going on, into his arms, and then his eyes were full of murderous intent.
Soon, the soldiers around formed a human wall to protect the carriage, and masters such as Dugu Feng also drew their weapons and stood guard.
"Boom boom..."
Suddenly, several packages flew out of the air, and then exploded, and a large amount of white powder began to spread.
"Damn it, everyone be careful." Dugu Feng said angrily.
Pei Ju tightly held the carriage, thinking that he might expose his cultivation today.
"Kill..." As the white powder fell, waves of shouts and killing came from all directions.
"Ah, my eyes." Someone shouted in pain.
Lime powder, the white powder is all lime powder.
"Who are these people, so mean." Pei Ju looked at the group of mysterious people standing with the soldiers and said secretly.
Dugu Feng jumped out of the crowd and killed several people with a few swords, but soon two people fought with him.
"Grandmaster." Pei Ju said secretly.
Dugu Feng was temporarily delayed.
This group of people are all masters. The soldiers around them suffered heavy casualties. With the help of lime powder, some assassins soon rushed to the outermost wall of people on the carriage.
"What a courage." There was a roar. Yu Wenzhi, who had been behind, flew up like a hawk, and used the Xuanbing Jin in his hand to smash several assassins into pieces.
"Stupid king, I'm here to order." Just after Yu Wenzhi left the carriage, two more assassins wearing bamboo hats rushed to the carriage. From the sound of their voices, they should be women.
"Damn it." Pei Ju gathered his internal strength with both hands and was about to attack.
At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared and came over the carriage.
"Jingle, clang, clang."
Their attacks were blocked.
Pei Ju looked around and saw that the person coming was a young man in his twenties, holding a sword in his hand.
Soon the three of them were fighting together.
"Okay, well done, warrior." Yang Guang couldn't help but praise the scene in the carriage.
Although he was fighting two people alone, this young man was able to do it with ease and easily defuse every opponent's attack, as if his whole body was covered with eyes.
"Huh? What kind of martial arts is this? It seems that you can predict the enemy's prophet." Pei Ju was secretly surprised.
At this moment, a melee broke out behind the carriage, and more than a dozen masked men rushed up. It can be seen that the assassination was interconnected, trying to lure all the masters around Yang Guang away, and then carry out the assassination. .
The leader of this team of killers is also a master, and his martial arts skills are even higher than those of the two just now. Soon the human wall formed by hundreds of people were killed one after another.
Pei Ju could even clearly see the killing intent in the other person's beautiful eyes.
"Roar…"
Suddenly a dragon roar came, and then a yellow shadow flashed past. After a bang, the team of assassins were suddenly knocked away.
"Brother Qiao." Huamanlou said happily while fighting the two women.
"Blind man, hold on." At this moment, a figure also arrived quickly, it was Lu Xiaofeng.
"Bold maniacs." Qiao Feng looked at the corpses of soldiers lying on the ground and the smell of lime powder in the air. He didn't understand what methods these people used, and he became furious.
Then Qiao Feng rushed behind the carriage and used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms again against the group of people. Previously, in order not to accidentally damage the carriage, he only used three points of his strength, just to repel the people, but this time he used all his strength.
"Shocked for hundreds of miles." With the roar, the ground suddenly shook, and then dozens of dragon-shaped shadows flew in all directions.
"Everyone, be careful." The leading woman shouted quickly.
But before they could get up and leave, the attack had already struck, and more than a dozen people were immediately knocked away, and then lay on the ground not knowing whether they were alive or dead. Only the leading woman was blocked by an assassin and escaped part of the attack, only taking a few steps back.
"What a domineering palm technique and such pure internal strength. Who is this person?" Pei Ju's eyes lit up.
"Good palm skills." Yu Wenhuaji also praised loudly.
At this moment, the woman put her finger to her mouth, and then a whistle sounded.
"Junior sister, retreat quickly."
After saying that, he jumped up high and wanted to leave.
"Delusion." Upon seeing this, Qiao Feng rushed towards the opponent and shouted when he was more than ten meters away from the opponent.
"Dragon Capture Hand." A dragon claw flew directly into the air and grabbed the woman's legs, pulling her back after she had already flown into the sky.
"What?" The woman was horrified. However, his legs were tightly restrained and he could not move at all.
"Ah…"
"Papa..." Qiao Feng quickly tapped the woman with his fingers.
The woman whose acupuncture point was touched immediately hit the ground hard.
Several soldiers saw this and took out their spears to stab him.
"Stop, stay alive." Pei Ju quickly organized.
"Senior sister." At this time, the two women fighting with Lu Xiaofeng also shouted worriedly.
"Haha, good." Yu Wenhuaji, who had finished killing the surrounding assassins, also rushed back at this time, and together with Hua Manlou and the other two, they dealt with the two master assassins.
"Pfft..." Suddenly one of the women was hit by Yu Wenhuaji's palm, vomiting blood and fell to the ground.
"Jun Qiang..." another woman shouted in pain.
Then she took out a black ball from her arms and threw it directly at Lu Xiaofeng and the others in front.
"Thunderbolt. Be careful, it's poisonous." Dugu Feng, who had just arrived for support, shouted quickly.
"Boom." After a violent explosion. The woman's body disappeared from the scene.
"Want to run?" Lu Xiaofeng wanted to chase after seeing this.
"Xiao Feng, stop chasing me." Qiao Feng quickly stopped him.
There is a vast dense forest in front of us, and it is hard to tell if there is anyone on the other side who can help him.
"Hahaha, okay, thank you to the brave men for taking action." At this time, the curtain of the carriage was opened and Yang Guang came out.
"See Your Majesty, Your Majesty was frightened by the inability of your subordinates to protect them." Dugu Feng and others said quickly.
Yang Guang's expression darkened for a moment, and then his smile returned.
"Let's discuss this matter after we enter the city."
"May I ask who they are?" At this time, Pei Ju stepped forward and politely bowed his hands to Qiao Feng and the others.
"We are from the Jade Emperor Pavilion and have been ordered to come to escort you." Qiao Feng returned the greeting.
"What, you are from Jade Emperor Pavilion." Yang Guang said in surprise.
