Reborn as a Sickly Child: The Emperor's Beloved

The man raised his knife and slashed at the two men. Shen Yanyan dodged the knife and fought with the man bare-handed. Wei Chi on the ground saw this and threw the sword in his hand to Shen Yanyan, "Go on."

Shen Yanyan dodged and took the sword, and started fighting with the man in black.

In a narrow dark alley, two figures stood facing each other, holding long swords, their postures agile. The flashing swords and the interlaced sword shadows were dazzling.

After several rounds, the two were still tied, their breathing began to become rapid, but their eyes revealed their surprise at the other's martial arts. Especially the man, he secretly pondered every move of the other, and couldn't help but feel a surge of admiration in his heart.

A woman actually has such high swordsmanship that can match him. You know, there are only a handful of people in the martial arts world who can fight with him, and even fewer who can be on par with him.

The man's eyes were sharp and focused, he stared at every move of his opponent, trying to find a flaw. However, Shen Yanyan's swordsmanship was flawless, and every attack was precise and powerful, forcing the man to respond with all his strength.

As time went on, the battle between the two entered a white-hot stage.

Their clothes were soaked with sweat, but their fighting spirit became stronger and stronger. In this tense atmosphere, they all felt the strength and determination of the other side.

Shen Yanyan's eyes were full of seriousness. This person was difficult to deal with. It seemed that she had to try her best to defeat this person.

Seeing the fierce fight between the two, An Qi and a group of secret guards in the dark wanted to help the queen, fearing that she would be injured. Xia Zhu quickly stopped him. "The queen hasn't used her trump card yet. It's useless for you to go up now. You can't deal with that person.

The queen finally met a master, let her move around." Xia Zhu looked at the young lady and knew that she was somewhat happy. It was difficult to meet someone of equal strength.

Seeing this, everyone could only be highly alert and ready to help the empress at any time.

The two looked at each other, and the atmosphere became tense. Shen Yanyan flashed, and the long sword in her hand was like a dragon out of the sea. The sword was sharp, and every move went straight to the vital point. Seeing this, the man did not dare to be careless. He dodged sideways and swung his sword to counterattack.

Shen Yanyan's swordsmanship is like flowing clouds and water, sometimes light and graceful, sometimes strong and powerful, making the man overwhelmed.

Her eyes were firm and sharp, as if she could see through him. Under her attack, the man gradually lost the upper hand, but he was still struggling, secretly surprised at how she could use this sword.

The shadows of swords crisscrossed and the sound of metal clashing was endless.

Shen Yanyan's moves became more and more fierce, her steps were flexible and varied, and her sword skills poured down like a torrential rain. Beads of sweat gradually seeped out of the man's forehead. He tried his best to find Shen Yanyan's flaws, but found that her sword skills had no flaws at all.

In this thrilling duel, time seemed to have frozen. Every swing of the sword touched the nerves of everyone present, and people held their breath, fearing that they would miss this wonderful scene.

In the end, Shen Yanyan gained the upper hand and knocked the man to the ground with a gust of sword wind.

An Qi, the secret guards and the man lying on the ground were all surprised, and they secretly sighed in their hearts that the Queen's (her) kung fu was really good.

An Qi felt that he was the one who needed to be protected. That man was so skilled in martial arts, but he suffered at the hands of the queen. The queen could easily crush him to death. The queen's martial arts skills were probably comparable to His Majesty's.

The man spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes full of fanaticism. It was really interesting that he was actually defeated by a woman. He just accepted it because he lost to this set of swordsmanship. After all, this set of swordsmanship had no rivals in the world in the past.

The man wiped the blood from his lips, chuckled twice, looked at Shen Yanyan and asked, "Who is Guixuezi to you?"

Shen Yanyan frowned. What ghost blood?

Seeing her puzzled expression, the man seemed to be unfamiliar with the name, and said, "The sword technique you just used was created by Guixuezi."

"None of your business." Shen Yanyan looked at him provocatively. It seemed that this man knew the master, but wasn't the master called Duan Chungang? Could it be that Ghost Blood was his nickname?

Seeing her like this, the man laughed heartily, his eyes full of deep interest in her. Listening to the noise beside him, he said something to Shen Yanyan and flew away, "My name is Leng Xue. Remember, I will definitely come back to find you."

Looking at the man who flew away, Shen Yanyan rolled her eyes speechlessly, "Psycho, do you think you are Big Bad Wolf and will definitely come back? You are mentally ill."

Feeling the large number of people approaching, Xia Zhu, An Qi and a group of secret guards surrounded Shen Yanyan.

More than thirty people suddenly rushed into the crowded dark alley. A man in a black robe flew to the man on the ground, helped him up, looked at Shen Yanyan and the others, and asked, "What's going on?"

At night, the moonlight was like water, spilling on the ground. Shen Yanyan looked along the moonlight and finally saw the faces of the two people. The man on the ground just now was lying in the dark of the alley, and his face could not be seen clearly, but now she could see them clearly.

One of them was dressed in white, with a handsome figure and elegant temperament, and he looked quite friendly; the other was dressed in black, with a graceful demeanor, and his brows revealed a kind of calmness and wisdom. Their figures appeared particularly clear in the moonlight, as if they were integrated with the moonlight.

Shen Yanyan thought to herself, he’s quite handsome.

A handsome and gentle young man, a calm and cold nobleman.

The young man in white bowed to Shen Yanyan and said, "Thank you for saving my life, young lady. I am Wei Chi, from Kyoto. If you need anything in the capital in the future, you can come to the Wei Mansion on East Street to find me. I owe you a great favor."

The man in black robe next to him frowned slightly. The woman saved Wei Chi.

"Your martial arts skills are no longer useful to this extent. You have to rely on a woman to save you." Chu Han looked at him with disdain and said.

"How dare you! Our young lady saved your friend, and not only did you not thank me, you even dared to speak such nonsense." Xia Zhu looked at the man in black robe and shouted.

The man's dark eyes darkened. When did it become his turn for a maid to boss him around?

He slapped out a palm wind from his hand, and it went towards Xia Zhu with a fierce momentum.

Shen Yanyan's eyes turned cold. She looked down on women and had a bad temper. She really deserved to be punished.

Pulling away the An Qi in front of him, he used 70% of his internal strength to slap the man in black robe. Instantly, a strong air pressure came towards the two of them. Chu Han immediately used his luck to deal with it, and then pulled Wei Chi back a big step to avoid the disaster. Even so, his hands were a little numb from the shock.

This woman's internal strength is comparable to his. It seems that he underestimated her.

"Trash, so useless." Shen Yanyan sneered, looking at Chu Han with disdain in her eyes.

After saying this, he signaled to everyone with his eyes and left.

"You..." Chu Han was about to chase after him when he was stopped by Wei Chi.

The guard stepped forward and said, "Master, I will go after them."

Chu Han said coldly, "No need, you are no match for her."

"So, you've suffered a loss, right? You always look like this on weekdays, and now you've suffered a loss at the hands of a girl. Be more respectful to women in the future." Wei Chi looked at his best friend with glee.

This man had been abandoned and hurt by women, and had been harassed by women before, so he had a lot of dissatisfaction with women. Now he suffered a great loss here, so it can be considered a lesson for him.

Chu Han looked cold and said nothing.

He didn't mean to look down on her, he just had never seen such a powerful woman and was a little confused. Usually, he was surrounded by weak and timid people who only knew how to scheme against each other, and he was really fed up with them.

She didn't expect that she could beat Leng Xue. Shen Yanyan felt that the man had great internal strength, and he brought many people with him, so she didn't dare to confront him head-on. She just said something and ran away with his people.

Several people ran out of the dark alley panting, and Shen Yanyan jumped onto the carriage swiftly. Xia Zhu was a little confused. The young lady was not someone who could suffer a loss. Why did she let the man go today?

"Miss, why don't you teach that guy a lesson? He's so arrogant!" Xia Zhu's voice was filled with indignation. Her cheeks were slightly red from running, and her breath had not yet calmed down.

Shen Yanyan sat in the carriage, looking calm and composed. She shook her head slightly, with wisdom gleaming in her eyes.

"His internal strength is comparable to mine." Shen Yanyan's voice was calm and firm. "Besides, the people he brought with him were all very skilled in martial arts. We are outnumbered and may not be able to win. Anyway, we have humiliated him, so it's not a loss."

Xia Zhu nodded. So that's how it was. She thought for a moment and then said, "But his words are really too much. Seeing him disrespect women, he really deserves a beating."

Shen Yanyan smiled, patted Xia Zhu's hand, and comforted her: "It's not ours. If he hadn't brought so many people with him today, he would have suffered a lot. He is an ordinary man, and he looks so-so. He is disgusting."

Xia Zhu nodded slightly. Although she still felt a little unwilling, she still accepted the young lady's point of view. The carriage slowly moved forward, leaving the dark alley and leaving the controversy behind.

In a quiet courtyard in the capital, Wei Chi and Chu Han sat around a stone table with solemn expressions.

Wei Chi frowned, fiddling with the teacup in his hands, and said thoughtfully: "My father and stepmother really can't wait, and are anxious to deal with me. As soon as they heard that I came to the capital, they invited Leng Xue out."

Chu Han nodded, with a hint of worry in his eyes: "He is not easy to deal with. If I fail this time, he will strike again next time. He won't leave any survivors."

The autumn night was already a little chilly, and the rustling of leaves in the breeze seemed to add a tense atmosphere to the conversation.

The two of them fell into deep thought, both trying to think of their next action plan. Wei Chi broke the silence: "If it weren't for that girl today, I would be dead."

Although Chu Han couldn't believe it, the truth was right in front of him: "Even Leng Xue is no match for her. I've never heard of such a person in the martial arts world."

Wei Chi pondered for a moment, and suddenly remembered Leng Xue's words: "At the beginning, she and Leng Xue were evenly matched, but the sword skills she used later were very powerful, and almost every move hit the vital points. Leng Xue mentioned Gui Xue Zi. She should have some relationship with this person."

Chu Han was shocked. "Are you sure he mentioned Guixuezi? Wasn't he besieged and killed by various factions 15 years ago? She looks like she's only in her teens, she shouldn't know Guixuezi."
