MTL - I Really Don’t Know How To Practice-Chapter 22 swordsman
In the 599th year of the Dawu National Calendar, on December 30, the wedding of Emperor Wu came as promised.
On this day, the pure white snowflakes fell all over the sky, covering the Wangcheng with a dreamlike color.
Ordinary people also want to see this grand wedding, but Wangcheng has been under martial law since last night, and ordinary people are not allowed to leave their homes.
Before dawn, the civil and military officials had already arrived at the wedding venue, Shenwu Palace.
The Shenwu Palace, which is usually used to worship the heavens, was decorated in a festive manner by the Ministry of Rituals. The Emperor Wu's choice of the wedding venue here shows the importance he attaches to Han Luoling.
Even when the queen married into the harem back then, she did not receive such courtesy. Therefore, many officials in the DPRK were secretly thinking about their positions.
At Mao's time, Han Luoling had already been awakened by his servants, and with the help of the maid from the Ministry of Rites, began to dress up. As soon as Chen Shi arrived, a resplendent Fengluan carriage carried the bride and set off. , slowly sailing towards Shenwu Palace.
Between Han Luoling's mansion and Shenwu Palace, there is a small bluestone bridge. Under the bridge is the river around the city. This is the only way for Han Luoling to reach Shenwu Palace.
At this time, a man in white was standing on the bridge, with a silver mask half covering his face, so no one could see his face.
A long silver sword hung from his waist, with a hint of sharpness passing through the sword case.
All the snowflakes that fell from the sky would automatically separate on top of the man's head, so even though he stood here for a long time, not a single snowflake touched his body.
Han Xu just stood on the bridge, quietly looking at the Huancheng River under his feet, as if waiting for something.
At the bottom of the river, Wang Qian led dozens of personal guards, lurking with airbags on their backs. In order not to be discovered, they had soaked in the icy cold water for several hours, but none of them felt cold. heat.
This battle, for Wang Qian, can only be successful and not fail, because two days ago in the Nine Heavens Academy, Wang Ran arranged for Zhao Meng to assassinate Han Xu and it was exposed, which was tantamount to cutting off his retreat route of relying on Han Luoling.
As time went by, Wang Qian became more and more flustered. Even when he was young and galloped on the battlefield, he had never been so flustered when he was in a near-death situation.
Through the river, he could see the white-clothed swordsman on the bridge. As long as they hid at the bottom of the river, the white-clothed swordsman stood on the bridge for as long as possible.
Both sides seem to know each other's existence, but they don't bother each other.
If you don't move, I won't move either.
Wang Qian would not naively think that this person came here to see the scenery.
The alley at the head of the bridge cannot accommodate a spacious carriage and Tiance army guards, so this is the only loophole for Han Luoling on the way to Shenwu Palace.
Appearing at this special place at this special time, this white-clothed swordsman definitely had some kind of purpose, but Wang Qian was not yet sure whether the opponent was an enemy or a friend.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Wang Qian thought he couldn't drag it any longer, so he gestured to the two guards behind him to go up and check the situation.
Those two were both seventh-rank warriors, the elite among the elites, but just as they surfaced, they saw a bright sword light falling from the sky, and no one could see how the swordsman drew the sword, and the two corpses sank. into the bottom of the river.
"Han Luoling is indeed protected by experts." Wang Qian's heart sank, but he decided to do everything he could.
He has no way to retreat, retreat is death, and he himself is a ninth-rank master, and with the personal guards he brought, unless the opponent is extraordinary, otherwise, with the strength of everyone, one blow is enough to kill instantly.
Wang Qian made a gesture, and the rest of the guards jumped up from the bottom of the water. Under the powerful force, the water pressure could not affect their speed.
The water surface under Han Xu's feet suddenly boiled, and dozens of personal guards in black shot out from the water surface, attacking back and forth, and the violent spiritual power enveloped him.
Among these personal guards, there are even four eighth-rank warriors.
For a warrior of the ninth rank, the third rank is a great realm, and a warrior of the third rank can become a powerful man anywhere in this secular world.
Once these personal guards make a move, it is the most powerful killing move. In this desperate situation, even a ninth-rank master can hardly retreat completely.
However, Han Xu didn't panic at all. He pressed his right hand on the hilt of the sword, and a silver light appeared for a moment, and a circle of sword energy spread out from him.
The next moment, the movements of all the guards were frozen in the air, and their bodies turned into powder and dissipated.
Just one sword, beheaded dozens of masters, how powerful this is.
Wang Qian witnessed all this. He had thought that this person was powerful, but he didn't expect to be so powerful. Even himself, he couldn't kill these guards in one move.
However, the arrow has been wound and has to be fired. Wang Qian is also a man who has experienced many battles and has a tough heart.
He calculated that no matter what kind of master it is, there must be a gap for a moment when the previous move is about to end.
Therefore, when the personal guards set off, he drew out the saber behind his back, and followed him from the bottom of the water. When he came out of the water, it happened that Han Xu's sword energy was about to run out.
Time, the score is not bad.
Where the blade passed, a string of water droplets was brought up. Before these water droplets landed, they condensed into ice in the air and turned into deadly hidden weapons to shoot at Han Xu.
Wang Qian, on the other hand, used all his spiritual power to stimulate the Xueren Crazy Knife with all his strength, and the blade lit up with a bright brilliance, and the extremely cold air seemed to freeze the air.
With a single slash, UU Reading www.uukanshu.com's saber qi criss-crossed, as if to strangle Han Xu.
With this knife, under the huge pressure of Wang Qian, he unexpectedly exploded with power beyond the limit. He felt that even if the swordsman was a ninth-rank powerhouse, he could kill him with one knife.
However, what he expected didn't happen.
The swordsman didn't stop after the last sword strike, and stabbed out with another sword at a speed that was hard to see with the naked eye.
It was such a simple and unpretentious sword, but Wang Qian felt a crisis he had never had before. In front of the swordsman, there seemed to be an invisible force blocking the space.
Whether it was the ice beads or the indomitable cold ice knife energy, they all shattered in front of the swordsman.
"Super..." Wang Qian stammered out the word. Only a super strong man could break his full blow so easily.
It's just, why are the superpowers here to protect Han Luoling, why can Han Luoling be protected by so many people.
Obviously, this swordsman is not the master who killed the assassin with the snow blade mad knife a few days ago.
However, Wang Qian's thoughts stopped abruptly here. The swordsman seemed too lazy to talk nonsense with him. After cracking his saber energy, a touch of sword energy pierced his heart.
Poor General Xiaoqi, when he died, he didn't know who he had offended, and he didn't even have time to regret it.
His body, sinking into this icy river, will flow along with the river to nowhere, maybe it will become food for fish in the water, or maybe, one day in the future, it will be killed by unknown people in an unknown place find out.
After killing the man, Han Xu didn't put the long sword back into the scabbard.
He looked up at the snowflakes falling from the sky, and then said to the surroundings: "Since you're here, come out."
