Zou Heng didn't know why a master who was not inferior to Min Xiaoxing stopped so easily after taking action. Moreover, judging by the tone of the opponent, it seemed that he was reluctant to stop. He thought there was some reason for this.

However, now is not the time to think about this reason. There is a master in Qi State who he cannot deal with for the time being. He has obviously set his sights on him. Zou Heng will be in danger if he continues to be in Qi State. Next, he will follow the original plan.

It would be better to return to Yu State first.

As for the reason why the other party took action and then suddenly stopped, Zou Heng felt that he should be able to get an answer after returning to Yu Kingdom.

Continuing to transform into an eagle and fly into the sky, Zou Heng soon arrived at the border of Qi State. The troops of Yu State were still stationed here, but these Yu State troops stationed here were also fighting with others at this moment.

There is no doubt about the importance of a country's border, so when the Qi army went to destroy the Yu army led by Li Sheng, they did not ignore it. They separated part of the army and prepared to take back Qi.

country border.

The Yu army that stayed here was resisting very tenaciously at this time, and the fighting between the two sides was very fierce. Because the Qi army did not have a big advantage in numbers, it seemed that there was no way to capture this place for a while.

Zou Hengfei had discovered from high in the sky that Yu's subsequent reinforcements were about to pass through the border areas and reach the border of Qi for support, so he was not worried about the Yu's troops staying here.

While flying over the border area, Zou Heng easily eliminated some evil spirits that were relatively close to the marching route of Yu's army, allowing them to have a safe road as much as possible.

After doing this, Zou Heng flew back to the territory of Yu State, and more than a day later, Zou Heng returned to the capital of Yu State.

When Zou Heng entered the city, the genius had just turned on. He first returned to his small courtyard, took a short rest, then went out to have breakfast, and then walked towards the palace.

When he arrived at the gate of the palace, there was a waiter waiting at the door. Was it smooth to go in? Soon he saw the King.

As soon as Zou Heng saw Niou, he found that Niou was dressed completely different from usual. Now Niou was actually wearing a piece of armor, but it looked thinner. There was also a long sword hanging on his waist.

"The Master is back. It's been a hard journey. Please take a seat!" King Ren said with a smile immediately after seeing Zou Heng.

Hearing this, Zou Heng also sat down generously, and then said with the same smile: "Your Majesty is going to the battlefield in person?"

"The Master is joking, do you have the heart to go into battle to kill the enemy? But you don't have the ability to go into battle to kill the enemy? The reason why you dress up like this is just to let the ministers in the court know your determination!"

When King Ren heard Zou Heng's words, he smiled and explained.

He is just an ordinary person who has never practiced. He neither understands magic nor has practiced martial arts. He really has no ability to go into battle to kill the enemy. Likewise, as the leader of a country, he cannot easily go to the battlefield wearing such a suit.

? It’s really just a symbolic meaning.

After hearing King Ni's explanation, Zou Heng smiled and dismissed the topic. Then he took out the jade box containing Zhong Buyai's head from the satchel around his waist and placed it in front of King Ni.

"Fortunately, I brought Zhong Buxie's head back to His Majesty!"

Upon hearing Zou Heng's words, King Ren suddenly stood up, a flash of excitement flashed in his eyes, and then he was about to step forward to open the jade box, but was stopped by Zou Heng's hand again.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. I got Zhong Buxie's head back, but the other party practiced the art of raising ghosts and gave his body some characteristics of ghosts. Even though there is only one head left, the other party is not dead yet.

Your Majesty, please be a little more careful!" Zou Heng pressed the jade box with one hand, and then said to King Ren who looked at him with doubts.

"This thief is still alive!"

When King Ren heard what Zou Heng said, his expression suddenly became a little excited. He looked at the jade box with a hateful smile on his face, and then said through gritted teeth.

"It would be great if he is still alive. The mage can bring him back alive and vent the hatred in his heart!"

After finishing speaking, Niwang's face suddenly turned a little red, and some bloodshot eyes appeared in his eyes. Then he motioned to Zou Heng to let go, and he reached out and slowly opened the jade box.

After the jade box was opened, Zhong Bue's head was placed inside. At this moment, the other person's eyes were open, his pupils turned up slightly, and he looked at Niou who opened the box, and then the muscles on his face twitched a few times, as if he was struggling to think.

I want to speak, but I can't utter a single word.

Nioh's eyes turned red and he stared at the head in the box. He stared at it for more than ten breaths before Nioh's voice sounded again.

"Hahaha, you are the evil thief, you are the one who killed Gu's princess, you are the one!"

When he said this, he was smiling in front of him, but the laughter was filled with a sad and angry emotion. The words behind him were louder and louder, as if the anger in his heart was finally released.

By then, it had turned into a roar.

Zou Heng saw Nioh so rude for the first time since they met again. When he saw Nioh, he even drew out the long sword from his waist and chopped off the head on the table.

The long sword fell, and with King Ni's strength, he cut open the jade box containing the human head. As for Zhong Bue's head, although its ability to resist had been sealed by Zou Heng, the other party's technique was quite special.

Not afraid of ordinary sword attacks at all.

Nioh looked at the head that rolled out of the jade box, and he slashed the long sword forward twice crazily. He still didn't kill the head, but only added two more swords to the table.

mark.

After two sword blows, King Ni knew that he might not be able to kill Zhong Buye, who only had his head left, with the sword in his hand, so he immediately turned his attention to Zou Heng beside him, and spoke with some urgency.

"Ask the mage to help the orphan!"

Seeing this, Zou Heng reached out and took the long sword in King Ni's hand, and then took out some materials for drawing runes from the satchel around his waist, and quickly started drawing on the long sword.

After a while, several runes appeared on the long sword. At this time, Zou Heng activated the magic power in his body and poured into it the power transformed from a trace of the earth's turbid air in his body.

Then, the long sword's surface flashed with brilliance, and a hazy halo immediately appeared on the sword.

Zou Heng handed the sword back to King Ren, and then said: "With this sword, your Majesty can kill Zhong Bue!"

Upon hearing this, King Ni couldn't wait to take the long sword from Zou Heng's hand, and then chopped off Zhong Bue's head. However, when the sword was about to hit, King Ni suddenly stopped.

"We can't let him die here. I want to use his head to pay homage to the princess. By the way, Yu'er also has to be present!" King Ren said, suppressing the murderous intention in his heart.

After saying that, he temporarily put away the long sword in his hand, and then asked the waiter outside to notify Zhao Yu immediately, and then turned to look at Zou Heng.

"Can the mage please move?"

Hearing the words, Zou Heng nodded slightly, then installed Zhong Buhe's head, and then left the palace with King Ren, and returned to the former Prince Ren's Mansion.

When the two arrived, Zhao Yu had not yet come, so King Ren began to order people to prepare and place some things for sacrifice.

Although the princess's soul has long since passed away, these sacrifices have no real meaning, but at least they are a kind of etiquette, and for the king himself, this is also a kind of comfort.

After everything was set up, Zhao Yu happened to come over, but also came with him, the national master Min Xiaoxing.

When Zou Heng saw Min Xiaoxing arriving, he wanted to ask him about the master of Qi State, but after taking a look at King Ren, he suppressed his thoughts for the time being. Anyway, he was not in a hurry to ask for a while, and waited for the matter here to be settled.

After that, it’s not too late to ask again.

So, Zou Heng and Min Xiaoxing stood aside, watching King Ren and Zhao Yu stand together and start a sacrifice using the heads of their enemies to hold sacrifices for their dead relatives.

The whole process was also very simple. After going through some simple etiquette, King Ni took out the long sword just now, and then said to Zhao Yu beside him.

"This person is Zhong Bu'e, one of the enemies who killed your mother. Ever since Gu Gu ascended the throne as the king, he has been thinking about killing this thief all the time. Now, thanks to the help of the mage, he has brought this thief back alive.

It gives you and I the opportunity to kill our enemies with our own hands. Yu'er, you must remember this kindness in your heart. When you take charge of the Yu Kingdom in the future, don't forget to treat the Master well!"

"My child will bear this in mind. Thank you Master for avenging your mother!" Upon hearing this, Zhao Yu immediately nodded and replied, turning around and saluting in the direction of Zou Heng.

After he finished the salute, King Ni had already taken the long sword in his hand and struck Zhong Buhe's head with a sword.

The head that was originally unable to make a sound suddenly let out a scream when the sword fell, and then was cut in half, but almost no blood flowed out.

A sword cut Zhong Buhe's head in half. Niou seemed to have not vented his hatred yet, so he cut the long sword in his hand again, and slashed at the table randomly.

"ah!"

While chopping randomly, Nioh also roared out as if venting his anger. However, as he moved, his voice gradually changed from venting to a deep whimper, and his movements became slower and slower.

Zou Heng looked at such a benevolent king and sighed softly in his heart, then turned to Min Xiaoxing and said.

"My little courtyard is right next to it. Why don't you, senior, come and sit down where I live? Your Majesty, let him be quiet for now. I happen to have something that I want to ask the Imperial Master for advice!"

"That's fine!"
