Chapter 788 Unification of the South (End)

Ding.

The sword he was determined to win stopped about three inches away from Xu Xingzhi's forehead. This sudden change caused the owner of the black sword to unconsciously enlarge his pupils.

"Shadow Assassin Yang Xuyan."

Looking at the man in black night clothes who suddenly appeared in front of him, with only his eyes exposed, Xu Xingzhi immediately guessed his identity, and at the same time quickly retreated back, shouting loudly at the same time.

"There are assassins."

"die."

Yang Xuyan was stunned for a moment. He didn't have time to think about what happened just now. The figure immediately chased Xu Xingzhi ahead. At the same time, his left hand turned extremely dark in an instant and exuded a strange aura. He punched directly. The golden light blasted towards Xu Xingzhi.

boom.

The dark left hand, after hitting the golden light on Xu Xingzhi's body, defeated him in an instant. Then his left hand continued to attack Xu Xingzhi, but at this moment, another streak of light appeared on Xu Xingzhi's body. The golden light, this time the dark hand was not able to defeat the golden light, it just dimmed it slightly.

This result made Yang Xuyan's eyes suddenly become extremely cold. After taking a deep look at Xu Xingzhi with murderous eyes, his figure flickered and he quickly retreated, avoiding four bullets aimed at his vitals in time. crossbow arrows.

"Protect your lord."

Yang Xuyan, who had avoided the crossbow arrows, was just about to retreat when he suddenly felt the sound of wind above his head. He looked up and saw a majestic man with an indomitable momentum descending from the sky and rushing towards him.

"snort."

Facing the person, Yang Xuyan snorted coldly, and the black long sword in his hand turned into a sky-wide sword light, and he rushed towards him. However, the next moment, his expression immediately changed, because the long sword stabbed the opponent without any flesh and blood. Instead, it felt like being stabbed on a steel plate, with a constant tinkling sound. Apart from leaving a dozen holes in the opponent's clothes, this blow did not cause any damage to the opponent.

Instead, the person's palm slapped the black sword, causing Yang Xuyan's right arm to tremble. He immediately spread his body skills, retreated into the room again, and then passed through the window on the left.

"My lord, hurry up."

Eight guards appeared around Xu Xingzhi and escorted him away. The other guards rushed towards Yang Xuyan immediately. Although Yang Xuyan's movements were strange and unpredictable, they were interfered by the crossbow arrows from the mansion's secret sentry. , so that he did not evacuate from the mansion immediately, but fell into a tight siege.

Xu Xingzhi did not pay attention to Yang Xuyan who was trapped in a tight siege, but immediately left this dangerous place with his guards. As the saying goes, a gentleman does not stand in danger when he is not sure that Yang Xuyan is the only assassin. At this time, it is very dangerous to continue to stay where you are.

After all, he is not Shen Fei or Shuanglong. Even though he has strong cultivation, he has very little combat experience. After all, he is a civil servant. Under normal circumstances, he is not needed to fight desperately.

Strictly speaking, the current Xu Xing's strength is really not weak, he is a real master level master, but it's just that Shen Fei used drugs to pile it on him.

As Xingzhi was currently responsible for most of Shen Tang's internal affairs, Shen Fei naturally didn't want him to suffer any losses. After he took refuge, he quickly used the Zhenren Dan and the Immortal Gathering Pill to increase his strength. After eating ten Zhenren Dan, pills, gather two elixirs.

Under normal circumstances, one pill of the real person and the pill of gathering immortality are enough. If you take it, it will be wasted. However, who knows that Shen Fei is not wasting the capital? With the importance of Xu Xingzhi, naturally it will not be It's stingy, even if it can't improve Xu Xingzhi's combat effectiveness.

However, the improvement of strength can improve his physical fitness, allowing him to perform better at work. As for his safety, it is simple, just equip him with a few more protective weapons.

In order to avoid anything unexpected happening to Shen Luoyan and the two of them, in addition to the elixirs to improve their cultivation, there are also magical weapons for personal protection. Shen Fei provided the two of them with several protective magical weapons. Yang Xuyan returned without success before because of this.

In addition to magical weapons, Shen Fei also sent a lot of personal guards he trained to Xu Xingzhi to protect him. These guards mainly practiced hard skills such as the Golden Bell Cover and armor-wearing skills. , specially used to block guns at critical moments.

It can be said that based on the configuration given by Shen Fei to the two of them, not to mention Yang Xuyan, even if the three great masters took action, it would not be that easy to kill them.

To strive for world hegemony, one must resort to all possible means. Shen Fei did not use this method because he disdained to use it. The general trend was his, but others would not be the same as him.

Facts have proved that Shen Fei's idea is right. Otherwise, it would be difficult for Xu Xingzhi to avoid Yang Xuyan's assassination. Once Xu Xingzhi is assassinated, Shen Fei will be in trouble. Such a capable person It's hard to find subordinates. Fang Mou Dudu is great, but he's not from his side.

Of course, once something like that happens, Shen Fei will be in trouble, but the enemy's side will definitely be in more trouble, and he still knows that tit for tat will happen.

"Did you escape? I know."

Xu Xingzhi, who had moved to a safe place, was not too surprised when he heard the news of Yang Xuyan's escape. After all, the other party was known as the best assassin in the world. So far, he had assassinated many heroes and martial arts heroes. By.

In the case of deliberate and unintentional actions, except for the three great masters, Shi Zhixuan, Shuanglong and a few other top masters who can avoid Yang Xuyan's assassination, it is really difficult for others to avoid it.

"Immortal Seal?"

As one of Shen Fei's important officials, naturally many information is not a secret to him, such as Yang Xuyan's identity and the martial arts he practices.

It must be said that Shi Zhixuan's luck is really not good. The only two apprentices all betrayed him. Hou Xibai was because of Shi Feixuan, and Yang Xuyan's side was even simpler. His identity was destined to have some problems.

Yang Xuyan was the son of Prince Yang Yong, the son of Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian. After Yang Guang killed Yang Yong, he was going to kill all of Yang Yong's family. It was Shi Zhixuan who saved Yang Xuyan's life.

However, this did not change Yang Xuyan's attitude towards Shi Zhixuan. After all, Shi Zhixuan supported Yang Guang back then. For Yang Xuyan, it was not just a simple revenge for his father's murder.

If Yang Yong succeeded to the throne and became the second emperor of the Sui Dynasty, he, Yang Xuyan, would be the next prince.

As a member of the Yang family, Yang Xuyan naturally did not want his Yang family to change its name. It can be said that all those who aspire to be emperor in the Central Plains are his enemies.

Under such circumstances, it is impossible to obey the order conveyed by Shi Zhixuan to help Shen Tang. As early as when he became Shi Zhixuan's disciple, Yang Xuyan was a snake in disguise, secretly trying to get rid of Shi Zhixuan's control, and the Great Ming Zunjiao was a good choice.

The dark left hand of Yang Xuyan before was the black hand magic skill he learned from the martial arts secret book of the Great Ming Zunjiao. Even Xu Ziling suffered a great loss when he was not careful.

"It seems that he is anxious,"

Shen Fei couldn't help laughing when he heard the news that Xu Xingzhi and Shen Luoyan were assassinated. He didn't even need to investigate specifically to know that the mastermind behind the scenes was nothing more than Fan Qinghui, Li Shimin or someone from the Li family.

The appearance of the Mo family mechanical beast made the Li family anxious. Li Shimin got the opportunity to use him again because of his light.

"He's really stubborn. Power can really change a person." Shen Fei couldn't help laughing when he saw Dou Jiande commanding the army to fight against the mechanical beasts head-on.

It must be said that Dou Jiande is an interesting person. According to the investigation, at the beginning, Dou Jiande did start the rebellion for world peace, but after gaining a certain amount of power, his personality changed drastically, becoming suspicious and arrogant.

Shen Fei naturally had no good feelings for such a person. In addition, he was not familiar with Dou Jiande, so he naturally would not show mercy. More than a dozen mechanical white tigers were dispatched to beat Dou Jiande and make him flee in embarrassment.

Under the stare of the mechanical Suzaku, Shen Tang's masters went out and directly beheaded Dou Jiande, not even giving him a chance to surrender.

"Li Shimin finally went to war against Liu Wuzhou, but unfortunately the army of the Song clan has also arrived."

Unlike the original work where Song Que personally led an army of 100,000 to support Kou Zhong, this time the Song clan dispatched troops in batches, with the first batch of 30,000 troops.

The reason why Song Que in the original novel personally led an army of 100,000 to go out when the first snow and ice appeared, and used the weather to prevent the Li clan from launching a war in winter, was because Kou Zhong was too weak at the time. If Kou Zhong had not held on under the attack of Li Shimin, the Song clan would probably have defended the south and continued to be the Duke of Zhennan, just like when they faced Emperor Wen of Sui Yang Jian.

Song Que hoped to use the winter to sweep the entire south, so that the entire Central Plains would be a confrontation between the north and the south, but now Shen Tang is much stronger than the former young marshal.

In this case, there is naturally no need to use the winter time to complete the unification of the south, and the unification of the south can be completed faster.

Originally, the Song clan's army wanted to deal with Du Fuwei's Jianghuai Army first, but with Du Fuwei's surrender, the Jianghuai Army became their own people, so they naturally did not need to deal with them. The two sides even cooperated to deal with Li Zitong who had previously seized Yangzhou.

When Du Fuwei and the Song clan jointly attacked Yangzhou, Shen Fei began to attack Yu Wenzhi. I don't know if it was because he gave up himself. Now the public security under Yu Wenzhi is in a mess. A large number of civilians began to flee. His reputation seems to be no less than that of the Jianghuai Army.

"Finally."

After knowing that they were going to attack Yu Wenzhi, Shuanglong and the others were very excited. They didn't care about the annihilation of the Donghai League and the Luoma Gang. They asked to lead the troops to go there immediately. Shen Fei naturally agreed.

"I didn't expect that Yu Wenzhi didn't know how to restrain himself when he was about to die."

When Shuanglong led people to Yu Wenzhi, Hou Xibai went with them. Although Hou Xibai's relationship with Shen Fei was very bad because Shen Fei shaved Shi Feixuan's hair, it was surprising that Hou Xibai and Xu Ziling had a very good relationship.

"This Madam Zhen is his favorite, maybe they are going to be buried together."

Hou Xibai sighed slightly when he said this. The reputation of the amorous young man Hou Xibai in the world does not come from his martial arts, but from his words, which is also the way Hou Xibai makes money.

Money is indispensable in the world, especially for Hou Xibai who likes to stay in the brothel all day long. Without sufficient finances, such consumption cannot be supported.

Speaking of which, every time Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling enter the brothel, something will happen. It may be because they have basically no money most of the time. If something happens, they naturally don't have to pay the bill.

"I won't accompany you next. I need to finish the scroll as soon as possible."

The biggest wish of the amorous young man Hou Xibai is to see all the beauties in the world and then paint a picture of 100 beauties. For a famous painting, he even dared to break into the palace of the Li family.

In order to avoid his painting not being finished, Shuanglong and the other two killed Yu Wenzhi. Hou Xibai rarely used Qinggong to hurry on his way.

The process of attacking Xucheng, the capital of Wei State, where Yu Wenzhi was, was very smooth. It was so smooth that Kou Zhong couldn't believe it. It was because the soldiers under Yu Wenzhi's command had little combat power. Many people surrendered as soon as they saw Shen Tang's army.

It was not until the attack on Yu Wenzhi's palace that they encountered fierce resistance.

"Yu Wenzhi, get out."

In the square of the palace, Shen Tang's army and Yu Wenzhi's imperial guards were facing each other. Kou Zhong held the Jing Zhongyue tightly in his hand and shouted loudly to the palace hall. His voice sounded very excited.

"It's you two little devils. I should have killed you regardless of everything."

Amid Kou Zhong's roar, Yu Wenzhi came out in a dragon robe. The Yu Wenzhi at this time was very different from the high-spirited Yu Wenzhi that Shuanglong had seen before, which made Shuanglong stunned for a moment.

"Stop talking nonsense. No one can save you today." Kou Zhong said here, looking at the imperial guards on the opposite side, and continued to say: "You should know that you have already lost. Let them surrender and don't cause more casualties."

Unless it is necessary, even Kou Zhong does not want to take people's lives at will.

"I lost, but not to you." After hesitating for a moment, Yu Wenzhi still asked the imperial guards around him to lay down their weapons. As Kou Zhong said, he is now powerless.

After Li Mi was defeated, Yu Wenzhi's fate was doomed. After that, Yu Wenzhi let his brothers and people of his clan leave. The ending was already doomed, and there was no need to let others die with him.

"Come on, come together." After the upper imperial army surrendered, Yu Wenzhi took a few steps forward and came to the center of the square.

"You don't have to tell me, we will also fight together, no one can save you today."

With Shuanglong's current martial arts, even if they fight alone, Yu Wenzhi will not be their opponent, but this time it is to avenge Fu Jun'er, neither Kou Zhong nor Xu Ziling can give up, so only the two of them can join forces.

As he spoke, Kou Zhong's figure flashed, and he instantly appeared in front of Yu Wenzhi, and the moon in the well crossed the sky, slashing towards Yu Wenzhi with a trace of mysterious trajectory.

Bang.

Facing Kou Zhong's knife, Yu Wenzhi snorted coldly, without any intention of dodging, and clenched his right fist and punched Kou Zhong's moon in the well directly. At the moment when the fist and the knife collided, a strong cold air immediately filled the whole place, causing a lot of ice crystals to appear on the surrounding ground.

The next moment, Yu Wenzhi's body immediately retreated five steps involuntarily, and at the same time, a trace of cold air appeared on his right fist. It was also a cold-attributed true qi. Yu Wenzhi's icy power lost to Kou Zhong this time.

Just as Yu Wenzhi was using his power to dissolve Kou Zhong's spiral true qi, Xu Ziling made a move. With one punch, the air around him immediately became scorching hot.
