The Book of Troubled Times

Chapter 871 The Legend of the Demon Sword

 Drunk broken knife?

Ling Ruoyu carefully knelt down and looked at the broad knife lying in front of the tombstone.

The broad knife was lying there quietly, and there was still the smell of wine on his body. Somehow, even though it was just a knife, it always made people imagine a girl lying there with circles around her eyes, muttering inaudible words.

 Is it really a knife that can make you drunk?

This kind of weird spirituality... If the senior just now is really Han Wubing, then this knife must be the real dragon bird!

The girl's heart beats a drum, and she holds the sword with both hands like a pilgrim.

 I can’t hold it in a handful, it’s so heavy!

Is this really a weapon that a person can wield with one hand?

The earliest dragon bird weighed dozens of kilograms, and God knows how much it weighed after Zhao Changhe re-forged it. Probably the quantifier "jin" is no longer applicable, and "jun" should be used. The dragon bird has spirit and will automatically fit the weight that is most convenient for the owner. It doesn't matter how heavy it is, but if outsiders want to take it, just accept it.

Ling Ruoyu was at the ninth level of the Mysterious Entrance and ranked first in Hidden Dragon, and his strength was no joke. However, he was injured at this time and had no power. His pretty face was so red that he was dragging with all his strength, and almost caused the wound to burst. The knife entered the bamboo forest.

Going through the bamboo forest is the Ancient Sword Lake. Opposite the Sword Lake is the Sword Lake City. There are people from the Demon Suppression Department inside who can ask for help...

“The imperial court is now at its peak, and there are so many rankings in the sky. No matter how much you do, it’s just like a worm shaking a tree. What are you planning?”

This place is not safe. Now that the Demon Sect has clues that Longque is nearby, someone else will come to find him soon. The holy sword cannot be left in the hands of the Demon.

 The night view of Jianhu Lake is beautiful, but it is not beautiful in the girl's heart. She clearly sensed the warning signs that someone was approaching.

Li Huangquan waved his hand, and the figures behind him dispersed, faintly forming a formation: "Although you are strong, unfortunately, the sword is just a sword after all, and it cannot replace the strength of a person. And the intelligence seems to be... Well, we have our own ways to make you unable to exert your strength. come out."

As the thunder and lightning struck down, another figure came: "With such power, it is undoubtedly a dragon bird. The sword spirit is like this, it has almost become a demon."

Each blow was the power to crack mountains and rocks, and the violent murderous intent and coercion shocked even Ling Ruoyu who was standing behind him almost unable to move, let alone Chang Wanchun who was facing the coercion.

 The girl didn’t know whether to cry or to be inspired by nature. This was not a battle situation that she, a Qianlong List person, should be involved in. If she had not met Han Wubing and Long Que, she would have fled to the city to find reinforcements. Logically, she should have been Han Wubing, the number one person among the gods and demons. I don’t know why I was given a doorway girl to play the leading role...

The man stopped by the lake, looked at Ling Ruoyu and chuckled: "Miss Ling is so ethereal and solitary, she is as light as a feather, and her lightness skills have always been praised by the world. How come Jianhu City is so close, but you don't enter the city quickly, but you drag such a heavy knife? Dragging down lives?”

Ling Ruoyu stared dumbfoundedly as the broad knife jumped up on its own and slashed at Chang Wanchun: "Where are the dog's paws? To get this knife? You are the one who deserves it! Smelly fish!" !”

 A severed arm flew up, blood splattering.

The dragon bird jumped up from the ground with a chirp: "Where did you come from? You dare to say that I am a monster!"

 Thirty-four on the land list, Thunder Sword Li Huangquan.

　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　)

Longque trembled all over, then fell to the ground and bounced twice on the grass by the lake.

  Junior sister, do you really not know that your background is more than just a Tianbang master?

Ling Ruoyu really wanted to say, power refers to the stupid look of being electrocuted and twitching on the ground? But I'm not in the mood to say it out loud, because the person I'm looking at is the Earth Ranking, and it's said that I'm close to defeating the Imperial Guard...

With the dragon bird held high, it rushed towards them: "Where are there so many trash fishes? Let them all die!"

Countless painful histories have proven that villains die from talking too much, and Chang Wanchun would not make such a mistake. As he spoke, a pair of demonic hands had already pinched Ling Ruoyu's throat.

　　The heavy sword that was so heavy that I had to drag it with my life to get out of the bamboo forest now feels as light as the long sword I am used to.

There was a burst of thunder in the sky, hitting the tip of Longque's knife.

Middle of the rankings, Level 2 of the Secret Treasure...I was chopped into pieces by a talking knife without even showing a gesture of resistance...

The group of men in black who followed Chang Wanchun were all dumbfounded. They looked at the bouncing broadsword and stepped back step by step: "Monsters... monsters..."

"Then don't worry about it, girl..." Chang Wanchun said with a smile: "As long as we get this knife, it will be of use to us. As for you, girl, your potential is known to the world, and you are also a good young talent, so why not come with us? It will be in your favor to go back.”

 The dazed Long Que was woken up by the drag, and felt that the little sister who was dragging the knife was so cute.

 Are you calling me mentally retarded? Longque turned around and asked Ling Ruoyu, "Did he scold me just now?"

 It’s a blessing to die here. If you were captured alive...

With such a standard Sunset Divine Sword, this must be my aunt-in-law’s apprentice. Isn’t that the same generation as me? She should be called Senior Sister Queque! Why do you treat me like a pilgrim? Could it be that thirty years have passed, history has become a legend, and her master has not mentioned love affairs to her, so that she doesn't even know that the so-called King Zhao is her master's husband?

 Yes, that should be the case, otherwise when she saw Han Wubing, she should have called her uncle instead of senior.

 “Wave at me.” Longque said.

“So it’s here.” A voice sounded in the air, and a skinny man suddenly appeared in front of him, with countless people following behind him.

Ling Ruoyu couldn't answer.

Ling Ruoyu: “…”

Ling Ruoyu: "?"

The girl was sweating profusely and finally dragged the drunken knife out of the bamboo forest. The front suddenly widened, and a mirror-like lake appeared in front of her. The night rain hit the lake surface, ripples everywhere.

Just as I was thinking desperately, the wind suddenly roared in my ears, like a sound like a door board blowing in front of me, followed by Chang Wanchun's scream, which was extremely shrill in the night rain.

 Longque jumped back, and the handle of the knife automatically entered Ling Ruoyu's hand: "Who said we have no one left?"

In just an instant, the skinny body was split into seventeen or eighteen pieces, the internal organs were scattered on the ground, and the blood was flowing and washed away by the rain. The scene was strange and brutal.

Ling Ruoyu took a deep breath: "Thirty-nine on the list of people, Du Wuchang will always be eternal... It turns out that you are also a member of the Demon Society..."

Ling Ruoyu desperately stretched out his sword and made a near-death fight.

I can’t even lift it... Uh, that’s not right.

Nowadays, when the strength of everyone in the world has improved a lot, the strength in the middle of the rankings has already reached the second level. Ling Ruoyu is still at the entrance, so the difference in strength is a bit big. This person doesn’t even have the capital to win through a weak defeat and a strong defeat. What’s more, he is seriously injured at this moment, and he can’t fight no matter how he looks at it...

Ling Ruoyu never swung the sword, but subconsciously swung it, instinctively injecting Qi.

　　Then I felt that my movements were changed by the sword, from the trajectory of swinging a sword to a furious slash across the air, with a powerful and thunderous slash that I had never experienced before.

 “Boom!”

The true energy injected into the knife was stimulated, and the power contained in the knife was triggered. A half-moon slashing sword light swept across with a bang, and all the men in black blocking the front of the sword lake were chopped into two pieces with one knife.

Even Li Huangquan from Dibang couldn't resist the sword, so he could only dodge it in a very embarrassed manner, rolling on the ground for several feet without stopping.

Thousands of troops were defeated. King Zhao once used this sword to defeat thousands of troops and sweep across the enemy camp among thousands of troops!

Senior's legacy skills are only revealed at the tip of the iceberg, but it makes the girl's heart feel turbulent. This sword was born, and if it fell into the hands of evil spirits, it would really turn the world upside down!

“Let’s go.” The dragon bird quickly scurried towards the lake, but Ling Ruoyu couldn’t hold it back and was carried away into the lake.

"Plop!" The man fell into the lake with his knife, and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving only a gurgling blood trail on the lake.

Li Huangquan rolled on the ground and jumped up angrily: "Chasing! There is a secret realm of an independent sword room at the bottom of the sword lake. There is no way to hide! They are setting themselves up for death!"

Long Que indeed took Ling Ruoyu into the sword room at the bottom of the lake.

The sword room had been cleaned up a long time ago, and Shuanghua's remains were taken back to the capital by the Four Elephants Sect for a good burial. The various ancient swords hanging in the sword room were also collected by Xia Chichi in the royal family. Han Wubing could feel it here. All kinds of sword intent have dissipated without a trace so far, and there is nothing special anymore.

 There is only a futon that once contained a gold leaf containing the outline of the Heavenly Book, which seems to be commemorating something.

Ling Ruoyu fell down on the futon, hurt and exhausted, and put the dragon bird aside. He painstakingly took out the medicine bottle he carried with him and took some medicine, and asked carefully: "Are you...really the Holy Dragon Bird Sword?"

Long Que greatly enjoyed being called such a respectful title by his little junior sister, and he put his hands on his hips and said, "Don't worry, junior master... Anyway, as long as I'm here, those miscellaneous fish won't be able to hurt you even a hair!"

The girl was silent. Without you, I would have gone to fetch reinforcements. How could I have encountered this alone... With you here, it seems that it is not that reliable. In order to capture a knife, others are fully prepared to deal with a knife... What's more, You know... forget it, have you sobered up? Now trapped in this environment with no way to heaven or earth, the girl couldn't think of any chance to survive.

She didn't say this after all, but just sighed: "I'll adjust my breath for a moment, and when I regain some strength, I'll break out and lure Li Huangquan away, and you go in the other direction. With your strength, as long as you're not in a trap, no one else will be you. The enemy of one."

Longque was stunned: "What do you mean, you lured them away and you yourself lost your life?"

Ling Ruoyu smiled: "You are King Zhao's sword, you should not fall into the hands of evil spirits. After leaving, go to the capital to report the news. This group of people from the Demon Society always feel that they have ulterior motives, and there may be other beings behind them, not ordinary ones." An ambitious person. Well...if you have a chance, help me go to Tianshan and report a message to my master. Her name is Yue..."

"Your master needs no introduction." Longque put his hands on his hips and tilted his head, looking at the little girl as if she were a fool.

But besides having less experience, this fool has a temperament similar to that of her master, and also similar to that stinky fish surnamed Zhao.

 This is the world in their minds? You cannot have both life and righteousness. Giving up your life for righteousness is as simple as taking it easy. Just like the first sight between her master and her master, which lasts until now, even though she knew that it was fate, she still had no regrets about that encounter.

“Bang!” The sound of attacking the space membrane came from outside, and the small sword room began to shake.

Such a small independent space cannot stop a deliberate invasion by someone who is well prepared.

Ling Ruoyu held the hilt of the sword and whispered: "Get ready, I will go to the right..."

Long Que picked up his arm in the knife: "Do you know that there is a method of space, which is the overlapping of spaces? On the surface, it looks like this space, but if you actually break it, you will find that there is another space. My master calls this a trap. baby."

Ling Ruoyu was stunned for a moment: "So? There is actually another secret realm superimposed here?"

"Yes, once they break the space barrier, the secret realm will be exposed." Long Que smiled and said: "It will really be a mess at that time. We are well prepared and can take advantage of it secretly."

Ling Ruoyu said: "I didn't expect that the Ancient Sword Lake, which has long been considered by the world to have no content, actually has a secret realm superimposed on it... Is there an ancient demon **** who has never been born in it?"

"So..." Longque felt a little guilty. The past of someone being taken as an ancient demon **** and then being caught and raped was still fresh in his mind. He didn't know if he wanted to be treated as an ancient demon **** again.

Xia Chichi and others didn't know why Longque ran away from home. Anyway, the female brat was very naughty and it seemed normal to do such a thing. But they all forgot that the sword spirit that recognized its master had a spiritual connection with its master. When Zhao Changhe was sleeping, it didn't know where his master was, but when Zhao Changhe woke up, it naturally knew it. It couldn't help but run out to find him. Master, this is not the so-called running away from home at all.

So the appearance of the dragon bird near here actually means that Zhao Changhe is here. The evil gangsters who wanted to capture the dragon bird did not expect this for a while. This seemingly quiet Gujian Lake was one of the most terrifying places in the world at this time. Its level of terror was by no means inferior to that of the Night Palace and the Dragon Bird. Nine Nether Abyss.

I don’t know if it’s too early to lead people to break through the secret realm. It should be okay... Theoretically, the master should have woken up. At most, he is lying in bed at this time, and it is not necessary to leave the seclusion ten and a half days in advance. What impact will it have. Anyway, he won't blame me. This is your dear wife's disciple, and I am also your dear sword. If you don't come to save us, are you still sitting here in the lotus position?

Don't force me to cut it so hard that you will never sit in the lotus position again.

Ling Ruoyu was worried: "You are a spiritual treasure, what if the ancient demon **** also has evil thoughts towards you?"

ˆLongque: “…”

 Can you still think like this? What evil thoughts could he have towards me? Does that trash fish still want to be called a knife...

"Bang!" The earth shook and the mountains began to crack, and the voice from the outside world could be faintly heard: "Stop hiding, there is already a dragnet around this place. Hand over the dragon bird obediently, and see if your potential is still there I can use you..."

"Let's go, don't mess with the ancient demon **** and cause trouble!" Ling Ruoyu forgot the plan of running separately, so he picked up Longque and ran away.

"What are you so anxious about? It's not necessarily the ancient demon god. It can't be the current warrior who accidentally entered the secret realm? Have you never entered it before?"

Ling Ruoyu: “…”

 “Bang!” The energy bombarded the barrier again, and the space barrier shattered.

Ling Ruoyu's footsteps stopped abruptly.

Li Huangquan and others rushed in, their expressions stiff.

What is in front of us is not the ancient sword room that people know at all, but a pitch-black secluded expanse.

 There is no light in the deep valley, but there is light in front of you.

It is a quiet pool of water. The lotus flowers in the water are almost withered, and only the remaining meaning of life tells people about its former attributes. A big man sat cross-legged on a lotus platform, wearing a simple warrior's uniform. There was no sign of any power, just like a mortal.

 Only those sparkling eyes generate electricity in the empty room, illuminating the secluded boundary.

 Longque probe.

 Why is the scar on his face gone...Sister Qingjie.

But without the scar, he still looked very fierce, with a plain face and staring eyes. Everyone present, including Longque himself, felt frightened, as if they were being targeted by some monster.

That's the killing intent and majesty brought about by many battles to kill gods and demons.

His eyes fell on Ling Ruoyu, and then he looked at the dragon bird in her hand. His expression was a little strange.

The female bird is actually willing to adapt to the weight of others? I took a nap, did I get bullied?

Sensing the focus of his gaze, Ling Ruoyu subconsciously hid the knife behind him, held it up in front of him to protect him, and said cautiously: "Senior, we have no intention of disturbing your rest..."

Li Huangquan and others could not tell the strength of the man in front of them, but the majesty and murderous intent could not be faked, and they felt that the breath of life was peaceful and did not look like a villain. Which ancient demon could this complex aura be?

His mind was racing and he interrupted Ling Ruoyu's words: "Senior, this demon woman wielded a demon knife and murdered countless innocent people. Now corpses are scattered all over the lakeside. We are eager to kill the demons and chase them into this place... Please help me, senior."

Zhao Changhe looked strange: "What do you mean, that is a demon knife?"

“Yes, seniors should be able to feel how **** and ferocious it is...that’s how many lives were taken.”

Ling Ruoyu was anxious: "No, senior, this sword belongs to a respected senior hero, and all the people he killed were demons!"

Zhao Changhe repeated: "Respectable, senior hero."

Ling Ruoyu said loudly: "Yes, that is an unparalleled hero! The person I respect the most in this life, besides my mentor!"

"Nonsense!" Li Huangquan said sternly: "He is obviously a shameless and despicable person who has ruined the reputation of many good women!"

 Zhao Changhe had no expression on his face.

 Fuck you...

 I am asleep but not dead. Why are you being vilified like this outside? Could it be written by a blind man?

Li Huangquan secretly thought that although he couldn't tell the strength of this guy, he was probably not much higher than the Dragon Bird. Once he obtained the Dragon Bird, he would no longer worry about this guy who just woke up and didn't know anything. Then he said sternly: "The demon girl is healing her wounds secretly. I will capture this demon girl first and then tell the seniors!"

As he spoke, he suddenly took action and slashed his sword towards Ling Ruoyu's throat.

 Zhao Changhe flicked his fingers without leaving any trace.

Ling Ruoyu was about to wave his sword to parry, but suddenly felt that the dragon bird in his hand was disobedient again. It rose up from an extremely strange angle, but it was no longer the previous mode of bombardment. The sword light just flashed and drifted into the night with the wind. , moisturizing things silently.

Li Huangquan suddenly had a bloodstain on his throat, he clutched his throat and fell to the sky.

 The small building listened to the spring rain all night.

Ling Ruoyu himself didn’t know what was going on, but the knife flashed again.

The surrounding area was like a wave of blood. The next moment, the men in black who followed Li Huangquan and rushed in all had their bodies bursting with blood, and their bodies were lying on the ground.

 The mountains and rivers are filled with blood.

Ling Ruoyu stared blankly at the hell-like scene around him and said to himself. It seems that Long Que has sobered up and suddenly became so smart... But now it looks like this is a demon sword. How will this ancient demon treat it?

But I heard the ancient demon **** speak in a sincere tone: "This sword is upright and awe-inspiring, with infinite power. It is truly a hero's sword. I woke up after sleeping for an era, and I didn't know that such a person had appeared in the world. I admire it..."

 It was surprising that Longque didn’t need to eat, otherwise he might have vomited out the food he had eaten the whole night.

I thought something had changed when you woke up, but I didn't expect you were still so shameless.
