step on mountains and rivers

Tang Qingfeng finished his wine, got up and walked down the mountain, towards the mountain gate.

At the mountain gate, a middle-aged man in his 50s or [-]s was standing at the ferry, waiting for Tang Qingfeng's arrival.

He saw Tang Qingfeng walking down the stone steps, so he stepped forward and said:

"My lord, are you done?"

"Well, let's go." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Okay." After the middle-aged man returned, he and Tang Qingfeng left Tangmen by boat.

On the Shu River, Tang Qingfeng said to the middle-aged man:

"Uncle He, how is the arrangement in Luoyang?"

"It's all arranged, young master don't worry." He Kuang said.

"Well, good." Tang Qingfeng replied.

He looked at the calm river under the boat, and felt uneasy for some reason.

"This trip may not go so smoothly." Tang Qingfeng thought to himself, and then asked He Kuang:

"Uncle He, how is Daoist Li doing?"

"Young master, don't worry, Li Daochang is fine. He practices swords in Wudang every day, and he has a very fulfilling life." He Kuanghui.

"Okay, I have troubled you for so many years." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Young master, you're welcome, we didn't do anything, we just watched from the foot of the mountain." He Kuang replied.

"It's okay, just look at it." Tang Qingfeng said.

Seeing that Tang Qingfeng's tone seemed worried, He Kuang said softly:

"Young master, for so many years, the young master has only asked about Li Daochang's recent situation, but he has never visited it. This time when you go to Luoyang, young master, why don't you go to Wudang first?"

Tang Qingfeng listened to He Kuang's question, thought for a while and said:

"No need, it's not yet time." He looked towards Wudang's direction and said in his heart, "Daoist, wait for me."

A few days later, Tang Qingfeng talked with two young men in the private room in Shuxianglou, Luoyang.

He pointed to the road map in his hand, looked at the man in black leaning against the window and said:

"Shadow, you bring the shadow people to ambush here."

The man in black glanced at what Tang Qingfeng was pointing at, and nodded his head in response.

Seeing that Tang Qingfeng understood him, he said to the handsome man with a strange pattern on his face holding a dagger in front of him:

"Wu Yue, you lead the people from the Holy Palace to ambush on the right side. After me and the shadow people take action, you lead everyone out."

"Yes." Wu Yue looked at Tang Qingfeng after returning and said, "Tang Qingfeng, how sure are you about this matter?"

"Fifty percent." Tang Qingfeng said.

"You dare to do it with only [-]%?" Wu Yue asked.

Hearing what Wu Yue said, Tang Qingfeng glanced at him and said:

"Since there is a half chance of success, why not do it? This time, the holy emperor will leave the palace because of the completion of the holy statue. If you miss it, I'm afraid it will be difficult to have a chance to make a move."

"Really." Wu Yue looked at Tang Qingfeng and said, "Tang Qingfeng, why are you so obsessed with killing the Holy Emperor?"

"The Holy Emperor reused his cronies, killed Zhongliang, assassinated Li Tang's royal family, and even his own son. Such a cruel person is not worthy of being the lord of the world." Tang Qingfeng replied.

"Oh, I didn't realize that you are still a person who cares about the country and the people." Wu Yue said.

"Wu Yue, I said it when I established the Holy Palace. The purpose of the Holy Palace is to protect the common people in the world. Now I choose to assassinate the Holy Emperor for this reason." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Tang Qingfeng, do you think the world will change for the better if you change the emperor?" Wu Yue asked.

"I don't know. But if you don't change it, there won't be any change. Only if you change it will there be hope for change." Tang Qingfeng said.

"Hmph, naive." Wu Yue continued, "Okay, then I'll play with you once."

Ying has been listening to the words of the two, seeing that they finished speaking, so he opened his mouth and said:

"Since you have agreed, I will go first."

As he said that, he jumped out of the window and disappeared on the roof in a moment.

Tang Qingfeng looked at the leaving shadow, and said to Wu Yue:

"Tomorrow will proceed as planned."

"Okay." Wu Yue replied with a smile, then turned and left the room.

On the day when the holy statue was unveiled, the square on the bank of the moat of the imperial city was crowded with people. Looking at the tens of feet tall bronze statue of the holy emperor, everyone was so shocked that they could not speak.

Standing in front of the holy image, the Holy Emperor looked majestically at the civil and military officials below the stage and said:

"My lords, I am very pleased that the holy statue has finally been completed after three years. During this period, everyone's contributions are indispensable, and I will definitely reward you for your merits." The Holy Emperor paused and said:

"I built the holy statue, first to show the strength of my Great Zhou, and second, to let it stand here and look down on all sentient beings for me.

Today, I will set up a secret letter here. If you have any opinions, you can post a secret letter here, and I will check it myself. "

"Yes." Everyone replied.

"Okay." Said the Holy Emperor, raised the wine bottle from the table, and said to all the officials below the stage:

"My lords, come, have a drink with me, and wish my Great Zhou prosperity forever!"

"I wish the Great Zhou prosperity forever!" Everyone said and took a drink from their wine glasses.

Seeing that the crowd drank it, the Holy Emperor was about to drink when a shadow suddenly flew out from the arm of the holy image and hit the Holy Emperor's head.

Seeing this, everyone in the audience was shocked and said:

"Holy Emperor be careful!"

The Holy Emperor listened to everyone's words, and drank the wine expressionlessly.

With a sound of clang, the guard standing on the side knocked the hidden weapon away with a knife, and at this moment, Tang Qingfeng jumped down, piercing the guard's throat with one blade.

He quickly pulled out his folding fan, and stabbed at the Holy Emperor with one.The Holy Emperor glanced at him, pushed the wine bottle out with one palm, then stepped back, and quickly pulled out the long knife at his waist.

Tang Qingfeng dodged the wine bottle, and with a bang, the weapons collided, and the Holy Emperor knocked Tang Qingfeng back with a sword, and fell to a distance.

Tang Qingfeng frowned slightly, looked at the Holy Emperor opposite, and said slowly:

"Who are you?"

"I am the commander-in-chief of the Shendu Army, Shangguan Jinghong!" Shangguan Jinghong looked at the man in black with a cold face and said:

"Waiting for Xiaoxiao, if you dare to attack the Holy Emperor, you will never return today!"

As Shangguan Jinghong said, he raised his knife and stabbed at Tang Qingfeng. Seeing her attacking, Tang Qingfeng raised his fan to meet her.

The guards at the side saw Tang Qingfeng rushing out suddenly, and when they were about to help, a group of men in black suddenly rushed out from the left side of the icon, forcing them to attack.

Seeing this, the guards quickly raised their knives to block it, and the man in black fell down, instantly fighting with the welcoming guards.

Seeing that someone suddenly assassinated the Holy Emperor, all the ministers and ministers fled in shock, far away from the place where they were killed.

Wu Yue saw that Tang Qingfeng and the people from the shadows had already taken action, leading the people from the Holy Palace to fight out from the right, and when they were approaching the Shangguan, thousands of soldiers suddenly rushed out from around the square, instantly killing everyone. Surrounded in groups, with three floors inside and three floors outside, the square was completely surrounded.

Seeing this, Wu Yue glanced at Tang Qingfeng, drew out her scimitar, and slashed at the besieging soldiers.

Seeing this, the people from the Holy Palace followed him and attacked the soldiers.

But at this time, Shangguan Jinghong was repelled by Tang Qingfeng's fan. Just when she was surprised by the vigorous vigor of the man in black in front of her, the sharp blade of the fan suddenly came in front of her, piercing her throat.

When Shangguan Jinghong saw it, he was taken aback, and quickly turned to dodge, but saw Tang Qingfeng raise his foot and quickly attack her waist.With a bang, Shangguan Jinghong's body was kicked away by Tang Qingfeng, and he smashed down on the holy statue.

With a puff, Shangguan Jinghong spit out a big mouthful of blood, which fell from the holy statue to the ground.

She looked at the man in black not far away, and when she was thinking about the unfathomable martial arts of this man, she suddenly saw Tang Qingfeng swaying the fan blade lightly, and a three-foot-wide air blade flew out rapidly, with indigo blue The radiance of color split the air and struck ferociously.

"It's actually a transformation realm!" Shangguan was shocked, and quickly pressed the mechanism behind him.

With a clicking sound, the body of the holy statue suddenly opened, and a three-foot-wide saber air rushed out quickly, attacking the flying air blade rapidly.

With a bang, the two air blades collided violently in the air, causing a loud explosion.

The people who were fighting were attracted by the explosion and looked up into the sky.At the place where the explosion sounded, the space visible to the naked eye became blurred and distorted.

"It's so powerful!" Just as Shangguan Jinghong was amazed secretly, a figure fell from the body of the holy statue, and attacked Tang Qingfeng fiercely at the speed of the wind.

Seeing this, Tang Qingfeng raised his fan and stabbed at the attacker.Bang bang bang bang, hand to hand combat, the two have exchanged dozens of moves in just a few moments.

Tang Qingfeng slammed out a fan, and the attacker raised his sword to block it.With a bang, the powerful palm was slapped out with a strong wind, and the attacking person was knocked back into the distance by Tang Qingfeng's palm.

Seeing that Tang Qingfeng was so powerful, Shangguan Jinghong jumped towards the attacker.

When she got close, she looked at the man in front of her who was wiping the blood from the corner of her mouth, and said:

"Wucheng, how are you?"

"Nothing, this person is very powerful, Commander Shangguan, let's go together." Wu Cheng said.

"Okay." After Shangguan Jinghong returned, the two of them, one on the left and one on the right, rushed towards Tang Qingfeng.

Tang Qingfeng glanced at the two of them, turned around and struck at Shangguan Jinghong.

Tang Qingfeng raised his fan to Shangguan Jinghong's body, raised his arm to block Shangguan Jinghong's soft sword, and then stabbed Shangguan Jinghong's heart with his fan.

Just when the fan blade was about to pierce the body, with a whoosh, a three-foot-long feather arrow pierced through the air, pierced through the body with a puff, and pierced Tang Qingfeng's heart.The powerful force sent his body flying, and he landed on the distant roof with a bang.

Where the feathered arrow shot, the Holy Emperor stood in the body of the icon. She glanced at the heavy crossbow in front of her, and then at Tang Qingfeng who fell in the distance, and then said slowly:

"Whoever stops me will die!"

As she spoke, she looked at the people around her and said:

"Luoyang King, you have done a good job in this matter, and I will reward you a lot when you go back."

"Thank you, Holy Emperor." Luoyang King replied.

Under the holy statue, Ying and Wu Yue saw that Tang Qingfeng was dead, and quickly withdrew from the battle with everyone.

Seeing that the assassin was about to flee, Shangguan Jinghong hurriedly chased after him with his soldiers.

Seeing the two men chasing after him, the Holy Emperor glanced at the place where Tang Qingfeng fell, and said to the young man in blue clothes next to him, "Li Xin, go and have a look."

"Yes!" Li Xin returned and jumped off the statue.

The King of Luoyang looked at Li Xin who was going away, and said to the Holy Emperor:

"Holy Emperor, Li Xin is Li Yi's son, and now that he kills Li Qingfeng, it can be regarded as revenge for his father."

"It doesn't matter how Li Xin is, what I want is to cut the grass and roots." The Holy Emperor said.

"Yes." The King of Luoyang replied.

While the two were talking, Li Xin had arrived at the place where Tang Qingfeng fell, and saw that the man in black was pierced through the heart by a huge feather arrow, his muscles and bones were shattered, and his body was broken and died in a pool of blood.

He turned the man in the pool of blood over, took off his mask, glanced at the stranger in front of him, and said softly:

"Qingfeng Li, you should have died a long time ago."

After speaking, he turned and left.

At this time, Ying and Wu Yue escaped from the pursuit of Shangguan Jinghong and Wucheng.

The two stood on a high place, Ying took a look at where Tang Qingfeng fell, and said to Wu Yue:

"Wu Yue, Tang Qingfeng is dead, and the mission will end. I will not refund the money."

"You don't need to retreat." Wu Yue glanced at Ying and said, "Tang Qingfeng will not die so easily."

"Really." Yingbuxin replied, and then said to him: "My mission is over, I'm leaving first."

After speaking, Ying left.

Seeing the shadow and leaving, Wu Yue glanced at the place where Tang Qingfeng fell, turned around and jumped off the high place.
