The opponent has been seriously injured [Comprehensive martial arts]

Ke Ruan looked at Ye Gucheng for a while, and finally confirmed that Ye Gucheng was serious, she twitched her lips: "There is no need for Baiyun City, just leave the sword to me."

Ye Gucheng is also holding the Big Orange Weapon!

A rare smile appeared on Ye Gucheng's face: "Of course, if I die, my sword will be yours."

For them, the sword is the person, and the person is the sword.

If Ke Ruan is willing, of course Ye Gucheng is also willing to leave the sword to her.

However, it was only at this time that Ye Gucheng asked: "Ah Ruan, were you really..."

"Is he really dead?" Ke Ruan asked back.

Ye Gucheng said: "There are rumors in the rivers and lakes that you died under Ximen Chuuxue's sword, Ximen Chuuxue did not deny this matter."

Obviously, Ximen Chuuxue is not the kind of person who does not dare to admit that he has done it, and he is not the kind of person who does not do it but adds a false name to himself.

So since Ximen Chuuxue acquiesced, it meant that the rumor was true.

Of course Ke Ruan knew that if she appeared, she would not be able to avoid this question, but before she could say anything, Ximen Chuuxue said first, "You must ask her to answer this question at this time?"

He looked at Ye Gucheng: "The timing is not right now."

Naturally, Ye Gucheng also saw the group of Jianghu people watching him and Ximen Chuuxue duel, and he said, "I'm just worried that I won't hear the answer after tonight."

but……

"Actually, this answer is not important at all." Ye Gucheng's eyes fell on Ke Ruan: "You are still alive, no matter what the reason is, it is a good thing."

When he saw Ke Ruan for the first time, what he thought of was not 'Are you still alive? ''How did you survive? 'This kind of question, but...

Great, you're alive.

Ke Ruan said: "If you survive tonight, we can have a good discussion on this issue."

Ye Gucheng said: "Do you think there are other choices for me tonight?"

Ke Ruan said: "I don't think you and Ximen Chuuxue's current state is suitable for sword fighting."

Ximen Chuuxue killed Ke Ruan with his own hands, but Ke Ruan appeared alive and kicking at this time. For Ximen Chuuxue, who has never missed a murder, is his sword really unshakable?

As for Ye Gucheng, he is even more inappropriate.

The failure of the rebellion has shaken his mood, not to mention that he is very aware of his situation.

If you lose the sword competition, you will die at the hands of Ximen Chuuxue, and if you win the sword competition, you will not escape the crime of treason, and you will also die.

At least if he died at the hands of Ximen Chuuxue, Baiyun City would not be implicated.

He already had a decision in his mind.

He told Ke Ruan that if he survived, Baiyun City would also belong to Ke Ruan, which was an impossible wish.

In this way, as a swordsman, being able to die under the sword of Ximen Chuuxue was already a happy ending.

A Ximen Chuuxue who is probably doubting his life, and a Ye Gucheng who wants to die...

This can't be regarded as a sword match at all.

Thinking of this, Ke Ruan took a few steps back: "Go ahead."

She actually left from the roof and ran all the way to Lu Xiaofeng's place.

Ever since Ke Ruan appeared suddenly, Lu Xiaofeng hadn't moved his gaze away from her for more than half a minute. When he saw Ke Ruan, he immediately asked, "Ah Ruan, are you alive?"

Many people in Jianghu have heard of Ke Ruan, but few have seen her. Lu Xiaofeng also knows that no matter what reason Ke Ruan 'resurrected' from the dead, it is not something suitable for publicity, so he lowered his voice. He raised his voice and asked cautiously.

But Ke Ruan smiled: "Why don't you ask Ximen Chuuxue this question."

Lu Xiaofeng shrank his neck: "If I mention your name to him once, I will worry that he will draw his sword and stab me to death. How dare I ask such a question?"

He muttered, "I don't want to pinch Ximen Chuuxue's sword at all."

Ke Ruan smiled at him: "Then you really want to pinch my sword?"

Lu Xiaofeng blinked: "Ye Gucheng said last time that you can fly away from the sky."

Ke Ruan smiled more gently: "Not only do I know how, but I also practice very well. Are you still curious now? Do you still want to ask questions?"

Lu Xiaofeng shook his head again and again, both his tone and expression were extremely upright: "No, I'm not curious at all!"

Ke Ruan said: "Actually, it doesn't matter if you're curious, because I have one thing I want you to help me with."

Lu Xiaofeng had an intuition that this must not be a good thing, but he has always been a person who likes to die, so he asked decisively: "What do you want to do? You don't want to stop Ximen's duel, do you?"

At least in Lu Xiaofeng's opinion, if anyone can do this, it must be Ke Ruan.

Ke Ruan rolled his eyes at him directly. Of course, even such an indecent expression can be made by a beauty.

Lu Xiaofeng heard Ke Ruan say: "This matter cannot be stopped, and I have no intention of stopping it, not to mention Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue are very firm, so I want you to help me with another matter."

She looked at Lu Xiaofeng, her autumn water-like pupils were even more charming under the moonlight, but such charming eyebrows and eyes were now filled with melancholy: "If Ye Gucheng dies, can you bring his body back for me? ? You just helped the emperor, if you intercede, he will definitely agree."

This is not a very difficult task, not to mention that Lu Xiaofeng does not want Ye Gucheng to be carefully 'searched' by a group of people after his death, so he nodded and said: "I will definitely help you with this task!"

However, in the end, there was no need for Lu Xiaofeng to specially help with this.

The contest between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue may be seen as a thrilling battle by others, but in Ke Ruan's view, the ending has already been predetermined.

Ye Gucheng is stronger than Ximen Chuuxue, but he has no desire for survival, even death in his heart.

So when Ye Gucheng stabbed out with a sword, the ending was already doomed.

His sword was indeed more terrifying than Ximen Chuuxue, even Lu Xiaofeng could tell that with that sword, Ye Gucheng's sword would pierce Ximen Chuuxue's chest before Ximen Chuuxue killed Ye Gucheng.

Lu Xiaofeng's palms were already sweating coldly, his breathing had stopped, his heart seemed to be beating fast for an instant, and then it seemed to stop like breathing, and he waited with bated breath.

Ke Ruan's gaze was calm.

Because in the next moment, Ye Gucheng's sword slowed down, and his sword technique that was originally flowing like clouds and flowing water suddenly deviated, which caused a flaw in that natural sword.

The moment is gone, the victory and defeat have been divided!

The edge of Ximen Chuuxue's sword was icy cold, and the tip of the sword was a little blood red but hot.

When the drop of blood fell, Ye Gucheng's body also fell down.

But he didn't fall to the ground.

Ke Ruan caught him.

Her qinggong has always been very good, and her body skills have always been very fast, and this time it is the same.

A smile appeared on Ye Gucheng's face: "Ah Ruan, this is very good."

This is good.

I died under the sword of Ximen Chuuxue, and you are by my side.

Ke Ruan's gaze was as gentle as the bright moon in the sky, but her tone was gentler than her gaze: "I want to ask, does what you said before still count?"

Ye Gucheng said: "What I said always counts."

When he said this, his eyes were already a little blurred, and soon, the last gleam of light disappeared from his eyes.

Ke Ruan sighed.

Ximen Chuixue said: "You hate me?"

Ke Ruan shook his head: "You are a swordsman, and he is also a swordsman. Besides, he is thanking you, and so am I."

Ximen Chuuxue finally helped Ye Gucheng.

From this point of view, Ximen Chuuxue has done the best for Ye Gucheng.

At this moment, he stretched out his hand to Ke Ruan, took Ye Gucheng's body and said, "Let's go."

Ke Ruan shook his head: "You take him away, I still have one thing to do."

She knew that Ye Gucheng had committed a felony, so someone would stop Ximen Chuuxue, but she was not worried.

Because Ximen Chuuxue is enough to make people feel at ease, not to mention there is Lu Xiaofeng here.

After Ke Ruan finished speaking, she disappeared in front of Ximen Chuuxue in an instant, and she had already rushed towards the place where the emperor was deep in the imperial city.

The emperor is changing clothes.

For him, what happened tonight was really exciting, so he wanted to sleep well now.

There is no problem that a night of sleep can't solve.

So the emperor decided to take a nap.

But just when he got into the bed and was about to lie down, there was a young woman standing beside his bed.

Young and beautiful.

The emperor looked at Ke Ruan and sighed: "If a beauty like you came to see me when I was around, I would be very happy."

Ke Ruan smiled and said, "Aren't I happy to come to the emperor now?"

The emperor said: "You must be talking about troublesome things."

He tugged at the quilt, his face full of displeasure: "No one can get along with me tonight. The first time I want to change clothes and go to bed, Ye Gucheng is here. The second time I want to go to bed, you are here again."

Ke Ruan chuckled, she always knew that the emperor in this world had a unique style of painting, but she never expected to be able to be so unique: "When Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuuxue were dueling, the emperor actually just wanted to sleep?"

The emperor said: "I am the son of heaven, and I belong to all the people. I use my body as a sword. The blood splattered five steps is not suitable for me. I have to approve memorials and deal with official duties. I am tired after finishing all these. I have to get up early tomorrow to go to court. Of course I want to go to bed early and sleep well."

Ke Ruan thought for a while and then nodded: "It's really not easy to be an emperor."

The emperor also nodded: "Yes, it's really not easy, so can you let me sleep first?"

Ke Ruan said: "I'm afraid it won't work, because I'm here to ask the emperor for a favor."

She looked at the emperor and asked, "Can you pardon Ye Gucheng?"

"He won?" asked the emperor.

"He lost," Ke Ruan said, "but losing is also a crime, so I have no choice but to ask the emperor to forgive him."

Unexpectedly, when it comes to this, the emperor looks even more regretful than Ke Ruan: "Oh, a beautiful woman is like a bright moon, which can never be missed."

Ke Ruan twitched the corner of his mouth: "The emperor likes Ye Gucheng very much?"

"I liked him the first time I saw him, it's a pity."

The emperor's tone was full of regret: "He and Ximen Chuixue are like bright pearls and Haoyue are both outstanding in the world, but it's a pity that he doesn't understand the righteousness, doesn't consider the people's hearts, doesn't follow the way of heaven, and wants to rebel against the Southern King. I can't bear it, he is quite a pearl." I am deeply sorry for the feeling of being cast in the dark.”

Ke Ruan said: "It seems that the emperor is unwilling to pardon Ye Gucheng."

When she said this, she suddenly smiled: "Does the emperor know who owns Baiyun City now?"

The emperor blinked his eyes: "If you say that, it must not belong to me."

Ke Ruan said: "Baiyun City hangs alone overseas. It has never obeyed the imperial court's discipline, but it also controls the main maritime trade routes and South China Sea transactions. Don't look at Baiyun City's face. This is also the reason why Baiyun City is almost as rich as an enemy country."

The emperor snorted: "If you make money and don't pay taxes, of course you are rich."

Ke Ruan said: "Now Baiyun City is mine, and if the emperor is willing, from today onwards, Baiyun City will also pay taxes like other places."

This is not just to say that Baiyun City has paid taxes, but that with Baiyun City's taxes, all trade around the South China Sea will pay taxes to the imperial court.

This is a big deal.

The emperor thought about the extra money in the national treasury every year, and said immediately: "Ye Gucheng, the lord of Baiyun City, is beautiful and graceful, aloof and noble. Consolation, pardon his crimes, hope that Baiyun City will reflect on himself in the future, and work for the benefit of the court and the people of the world."

Ke Ruan blinked: "So the emperor doesn't care about that 'beautiful lady'?"

The emperor waved his hand and said, "Beautiful lady or something, there is no such thing as white money!"

Ke Ruan: "..."

When Ximen Chuuxue saw Ke Ruan again, Ke Ruan looked relaxed, obviously what she had to do had been done, and the result was good.

Considering that Ke Ruan was going in the direction of the inner palace, Ximen Chuuxue could roughly guess what Ke Ruan wanted to do.

It's just that Ke Ruan didn't explain when he saw him, but asked, "Where's Ye Gucheng?"

Ximen Chuuxue said: "I will temporarily place him in the guest room, and I have already asked someone to order a coffin, and it will be delivered early tomorrow morning. Other things are up to you to decide."

Obviously, Ye Gucheng himself is willing to do this.

Ximen Chuuxue said and handed the sword in his hand to Ke Ruan: "This is Ye Gucheng's sword."

After Ke Ruan took it, he stretched out his hand again: "Please give me back my You Yue Hua Hua, thank you."

Ximen Chuixue: "..."

The author has something to say: Ximen Chuuxue: Isn’t it that when I die, I send the villa to you? When you die, you send the sword?

Yes, the city lord is not dead yet. 】
