Kou Zhong only glanced at him to further confirm his idea that he was invincible. The two men who shot up at him from the city gate were only wearing the uniforms of soldiers, but they wore helmets that covered the upper half of their faces, showing that they were unwilling to do so.

Let people recognize their true appearance in Mount Lu.

The long sword in the man's hand on the lower left turned into countless dazzling reflections - the light of torches and lanterns from far and near made it difficult to see his figure clearly, but Kou Zhong clearly felt that he was the shadow assassin Yang Xu who had fought against him before.

Yan.

This man is truly a genius with a sword. His fire skills have reached the level of a master, and his swordsmanship is unique. Kou Zhong has no confidence in winning if he is alone.

The other person is holding a strange-shaped weapon that looks like a sword, a sword, or a sword, but it looks like the son of a sword and a sword. However, judging from his domineering offensive martial arts, it is not much different from Yang Xuyan.

When Kou Zhong called for his mother in his heart, the seven spears thrown by the defenders on the wall had already pierced his back.

Kou Zhong laughed loudly and said: Brother Xuyan, you are fine!

His body swayed sharply from side to side in the air. Five spears passed by him from three sides, but two of them were clamped under his armpits. The fierce force helped him change his downward direction and change his direction.

He shot forward empty-handedly towards the Yongtai Gate of the Imperial Palace.

Even with the abilities of Yang Xuyan and Li Shentong, they could only miss it.

What the masters were fighting for was the difference in seconds. By the time the luck of the two of them fell to the ground, Kou Zhong had already disappeared into the palace.

Suddenly, a large number of pursuers rushed into Yongtai Gate and became chaotic, which made it difficult for the two to move and missed the opportunity.

Xu Ziling changed into another outfit, bought a steel knife, put on a mask, and pretended to be the evil swordsman Yueshan who had been mistaken by Henan madman Zheng Shiru. Shi Shiran went to an agreed tavern on the street to wait for Kou Zhong.

He was confident that Kou Zhong would be able to escape with his life and come to see him.

If he dies, he will do whatever it takes to assassinate Wang Shichong and Li Shimin to avenge him, then go south to pick up Su Su's mother and son, entrust them to Zhai Jiao, and then go to Yu Wenhuaji alone to settle the score.

If you want to conquer the world, either you will kill me or I will kill you. No one has anything to complain about.

Suddenly, Xu Ziling had a feeling of risking everything and not caring about anything.

It's like life and death, so there's nothing to worry about.

What is about to be born must be born.

At this time, two people from the world walked into the store and caught a glimpse of Xu Ziling sitting alone in a corner. They were stunned at first, then their expressions changed drastically and they left.

Xu Ziling saw this and was puzzled.

You must know that Yue Shan has not set foot in the world for decades. Unless he is a perennial master of his generation, no one should know him. Why did two men who randomly walked in and were no more than thirty-one years old recognize him? Think about it further.

Suddenly.

The news that Yueshan had arrived in Luoyang must have spread from Zheng Shiru's mouth, or it might have been reported to a certain gang or powerful person in the area. That person then ordered his subordinates to pay attention to such a number one person in case of the situation just now.

Now that even Wang Shichong and Li Shimin have become mortal enemies, how can he take other people into consideration?

He just wants to drink.

If Kou Zhong is really killed, what kind of blow will it have on him?

When a person dies, will he disappear into thin air without leaving any trace, or will he be reincarnated as a human again?

Kou Zhong's familiar footsteps came closer and closer.

Xu Ziling looked up and saw a guard in civilian clothes.

Kou Zhong slumped down beside him with unsteady steps. Xu Ziling couldn't see his face due to the mask, but of course he knew he was seriously injured.

After taking a sip of wine, Kou Zhong said harshly: Wang Shichong, that damn guy actually teamed up with Li Zi to deal with me and almost killed him. Fortunately, I have the magic to change my body - otherwise you would never see me again.

Unless you are willing to go to the underworld to visit me.

Xu Ziling reached out from the bottom of the stage to grab it - his hand conveyed a steady stream of energy and said calmly: Someone just recognized me as "Ba Dao" Yue Shan, so it is not appropriate to stay here for a long time and try to leave anyone who wants to pursue us.

Kou Zhong said in astonishment: Yueshan?

Xu Ziling shrugged and said: What's so strange.

Then he frowned and said: Your injury is very serious and you won't be able to recover for one night, but that only refers to internal injuries, and external injuries may take two more days.

Kou Zhong said proudly: The reason why I was able to escape was all because Yang Xuyan wanted to take advantage of me when I was exhausted, and I led Wang Shichong's people from the imperial city to the palace city for a few miles. The funniest thing was when I broke into the harem and shouted that Wang Shichong wanted to kill Yang Tong, the whole palace was immediately in chaos. I took the opportunity to exchange clothes with a friendly and kind-hearted guard and sneak out! Ha! Ouch!

Xu Ziling said angrily: Why don't you be happy so early, Mr. Xu?

Kou Zhong said in a low voice: "Let's go! If we don't avenge this, it's not Junzishan who has a clever plan of his own."

＊＊＊

Luoyang City was surprisingly quiet that night.

Wang Shichong did not send anyone to search for them, as everyone knew that nothing would be gained.

The two hid in the bell tower overlooking the Tianjin Bridge. Xu Ziling helped Kou Zhong circulate Qi and heal his injuries while telling him how he was besieged by Li Shimin and how he escaped.

Kou Zhong took a breath and said: "Li Zi is so spicy, strange? It's reasonable for Li Zi not to ask Li Jing to take action, but why didn't even Hong Fu Nu take part in it?"

Xu Ziling said: Don't worry about this kind of thing! How to save Xu Xingzhi now? The worst thing is that we don't know whether he is alive or dead at all? I just want to leave as soon as possible.

Kou Zhong closed his eyes and endured it silently. After a while, he opened his eyes and said: What Wang Shichong needs most is an outstanding military advisor and counselor like his younger brother, and Xu Xingzhi just meets his needs. Xu Xingzhi just meets his needs. Although this man's martial arts skills are not very good, his intelligence is definitely not inferior to ours. He always has a way to make Wang Shichong believe that he has no close relationship with us. In fact, he does not have any close relationship with us, so he should be safe and sound.

Xuan sighed and said: If my enemy is just Wang Shichong, I don't have to worry so much. But having an extra plum is another matter.

Xu Ziling said: Didn't you have another clever plan just now?

Kou Zhongtou said: Tomorrow I will go and see if Xu Xingzhi has left any message, and then I will try to contact Song Jingang’s people in Luoyang to find out more about the situation in Luoyang. Alas! Suddenly the crowd turned from shouting in front to being helpless. Kissing does make people uncomfortable.

Xu Lioling thought to himself that he could also ask Qiu Tongtong, the comely beauty Liu Heitai stayed here, for information.

Kou Zhong thought hard: The situation in all aspects is so urgent now. Why can Li Zi still spend so many days in Dongdu? There must be a reason that we can't guess.

Xu Ziling whispered: Save your energy! Think about everything else after dawn!

＊＊＊

The next morning the two went their separate ways.

Everything in Luoyang remains the same, only more prosperous than before.

Xu Ziling put on a mask he had never used before and pretended to be a poor Confucian scholar and went to find Tongtong with ease.

When he arrived at that time, he returned to his original self. A moment later, he met Tongtong at the house in the backyard of the shop, and the latter was packing his bags and obviously preparing to leave.

Tongtong was overjoyed to see him come to visit and said: "I'm still worried about the two uncles. Seeing Mr. Xu go back safe and sound, it's better to explain to Mr. Liu."

After sitting down, Xu Ziling asked: Is Miss Tongtong leaving?

Tongtongtou said: The situation is now tight and King Xia has made a plan to attack Xu Yuanlang. The next step will be Yu Wenhuaji's turn. Otherwise, once Li Jun breaks through Kansai, it will be too late for us.

Xu Zilingtou agreed.

Military strategists must fight against every second to win.

Now Li Mi's defeat has changed the entire situation.

The three largest forces inside and outside the Zhongyuan Pass each have their own problems and urgent matters to be solved.

Li Yuan still had Xue Ju and his son to worry about, and Liu Wuzhou was eyeing him, waiting for an opportunity.

Wang Shichong wanted to expand the results of the victory, capture Li Mi's defeated army and territory, drive Li Mi out and uproot him.

Therefore, Dou Jiande must take this opportunity to clear out all the enemies that are blocking him from going south. Xu Yuanlang is his biggest enemy, Yu Wenhuaji.

For a time, Wang Shichong became the heart of the war. Whoever can capture Luoyang can control the river traffic in the north. Who can resist the flow southward?

Tongtong said solemnly: "According to the secret information I got, Li Shimin's right-hand man Li Jing and his wife set off for Heyang three days ago. It doesn't seem to be a good thing."

Xu Ziling was shocked and changed his mind: Li Shimin wanted to take Li Mi as his own and surrender to him.

Tongtong frowned and said: Is Li Mi someone willing to be a slave to others?

Xu Ziling remembered Kou Zhong's comments to Li Shimin and replied in a deep voice: If you can't bear it, your plans will be ruined. Although the world is big now, Li Mi has nowhere to hide and no way to escape. If Li Shimin can give him a place to stay, how can he avoid this storm of fire? It should be better than a complete defeat.

Tongtong was still puzzled and said: If Li Shimin was both wise and courageous as rumored, he should have known that recruiting Li Mi was just raising a tiger for trouble.

Xu Ziling said: What you say makes sense. But I have a deeper idea that Li Shimin's method is mainly for others to see. It shows that even a tyrannical overlord like Li Mi has the heart and courage to accept me. This may save him from fighting a lot of battles.

Tongtong's delicate body trembled slightly, her beautiful eyes revealed an expression of admiration and whispered: "Tongtong is convinced! Mr. Xu knew Li Shimin so deeply that he could see through him. That must be the case, and this is the only reasonable explanation."

Xu Ziling smiled bitterly and said: Li Shimin is probably the person who knows how to use means best in the world today. He can do what others cannot and cannot do what others cannot do.

Now I have to worry about Kou Zhong! He worked hard to defeat Li Mi, but he thanked Li Zi and accepted the greatest result without saying a word.

Tongtong said: "Now the news is very tight. After Wang Shichong established his position, he began to force various people to evacuate Dongdu. This is another reason why we have to evacuate."

Xu Ziling asked: Are Fu Qian, Tu Li, Wang Bo and others still in Luoyang?

Tongtong said: I don’t know Fu Qian’s situation, but both Tu Li and Wang Bo have left the city and their whereabouts are unknown. Alas! The Battle of Mangshan has completely reversed the entire situation. Now no one knows what will change in the next moment. Only One thing is for sure that Master Kou and Master Xu's reputation in the world has increased several times. No one dares to take you lightly anymore.

Xu Ziling didn't care whether he was more famous or prestigious than before and then asked: Is there any news about the wrongdoing of the public or the Yin Gui sect?

Tongtong said: I heard that Huang Gongcuo has returned south. The Yingui sect has always been practicing tincture in secret. No one knows what they are doing?

Xu Ziling felt that it was inappropriate. The Yingui sect specialized in repaying kindness with hatred. How could he let them go?

However, Tongtong obviously knew that and left. The delicate and lovely beauty showed a parting look as she walked him to the door and whispered in a low voice: Master Xu, the heads on your necks are very valuable now!
