Chapter 90: Face to face, heavy damage

The long sword shattered, and the despairing force hit him in the face like a tsunami.

Wu Shui screamed loudly, he never dreamed that the sword he used all his strength to strike, using up all the energy in his body in one blow, and almost killing both of them, could be shattered by Lu Yi's "casual" wave of his hand.

The breath of death was overwhelming. At the critical moment of life and death, Wu Shui bit the tip of his tongue, and the desperate secret skill of Hao Jian Palace, 'Sword Burial Technique', broke out. Incomparably sharp sword forces ran rampant in his body, and in an instant, the twelve main meridians and eight extraordinary meridians in his body were shattered.

In front of Wu Shui's right palm holding the sword, a ball of bright sword energy burst out.

With a crisp sound, Wu Shui's right arm was broken at the shoulder. The entire right arm turned into a blood rainbow, wrapped in snow-white sword energy and shot forward, heavily hitting the Jingtao hand swung by Lu Yi.

The sword shot out angrily, and Wu Shui's body flew backwards.

With a loud bang, the sword rainbow transformed by Wu Shui at the cost of all his cultivation was annihilated by Lu Yi's palm. Jing Tao's hand rolled up a violent gust of wind, which passed by Wu Shui's body at high speed.

Wu Shui vomited blood and his body floated dozens of feet away along the direction of the storm. He plunged headfirst into the canal below and hit the thick ice with a "pop".

“Senior Brother!”

Dozens of sword guards in white rushed out of the restaurant.

Among them, some ran towards the Wushui on the ice, while others drew their swords and ran towards Lu Yi.

Behind Lu Yi, the three thousand personal guards had pulled the reins the moment Lu Yi was attacked. When the sword guards charged, the personal guards had already drawn their bows and pulled their crossbows. Some even formed a formation and held up their spears and lances to protect Lu Yi in the middle.

The sword guards stood there in bewilderment.

Lu Yi silently practiced his skills, and the black mysterious light that filled his body was absorbed into the Danzhong acupoint bit by bit, and condensed into a point of Guixu Immortal Yuan again.

He looked down at the frozen sword guards and asked coldly, "Why did you attack me?"

A middle-aged sword guard stepped forward, looked at Lu Yi and gritted his teeth and said, "My prince died because of you!"

Lu Yi was stunned: "Your heir? Which one?"

The sword guard said angrily: "My heir is Qi Lu, the ninth son of Duke Dongqi!"

Lu Yi's eyes widened and he angrily said, "Qi Lu? Yes, he died, but he died because..."

The traffic in Wuyinfang is very busy, and the stone bridge over the canal is an important transportation route, with people coming and going, and it is extremely bustling.

When Lu Yi was attacked, countless people from all directions were pointing and talking in this direction.

If Qi Xun's death was revealed in public, it was because the Queen Mother used him as bait to catch ghosts!

Lu Yi was speechless: "Qi Lu's death was because..."

Seeing Lu Yi like this, the middle-aged sword guard laughed bitterly: "I understand, as expected, the death of my prince is inseparable from you, Tianyang Lord Lu Yi. Good, good, good, we are useless and cannot avenge the prince, but my master will never let it go!"

A group of sword guards roared to the sky at the same time.

Just when Lu Yi and the guards behind him were on full alert and thought that these sword guards were going to fight to the death, they saw them raise the long swords in their hands, grasp the sword blades in unison, and break the long swords with a "ding-dong" sound.

"Today's revenge, today's hatred, I swear to avenge it in this life!"

A group of sword guards shouted in unison, cut their palms with daggers, smeared the blood all over their faces, then turned around and left, leaving Wu Shui at full speed with his meridians broken, an arm missing, and his body limp like a dead person.

On the top floor of the restaurant, Zhu Yu's sneer was heard: "Oh, is that the end? Wasn't that the Broken Sword Blood Oath of the Hao Sword Palace? Hey, Lord Tianyang, you are in trouble. You have become a thorn in the side of the Hao Sword Palace. All the disciples of the Hao Sword Palace want to kill you as soon as possible!"

When Lu Yu looked up, he saw Zhu Yu, who was as perfect as a priceless jade disk.

Zhu Yu stood at the edge of a hole created by the Wushui River, looking down at Lu Yi at the bridge head.

The two men stared at each other for a while, then Lu Yi jumped off his horse, separated the guards surrounding him, and strode into the restaurant.

The guards immediately took action. Some of them put away their weapons and followed Lu Yi into the restaurant. Others dispersed the onlookers near the restaurant and surrounded the entire restaurant.

From the first floor of the restaurant to the restaurant, Lu Yi walked up the stairs step by step.

The personal guards behind him, who were from the Yulin Army, sealed off every floor along the way and ordered all diners in the restaurant not to walk around or talk at will.

Lu Yi walked up step by step to the top floor of the restaurant. Hearing the scolding of his own guards coming from behind and at his feet, an inexplicable feeling quietly rose in his heart.

When the family of Duke Laiguo learned to be cautious and low-key, Lu Yi would never have experienced the feeling he has today.

"Power" is a deadly yet tempting poison to men.

Finally, Lu Yi arrived at the top floor of the restaurant.

At the stairs, a group of guards brought by Zhu Yu and Zhu Yu lined up in a row, blocking Lu Yi.

Behind Lu Yi, the Shenwu General holding a staff strode out and raised high the staff in his hand. It was made of bronze, with a relief of Kunpeng soaring in the clouds and sea, and decorated with nine white yak tails.

These guards came from Prime Minister Zhu Chongda's residence and had a very clear understanding of the shapes and meanings of all the ceremonial instruments in the court.

Seeing the scepter that represented the emperor's authority, the guards retreated step by step without saying a word.
The guards took a step back, Lu Yi took a step forward, and the Shenwu general holding the scepter beside him also took a step forward.

Soon, these guards of the prime minister's residence retreated to the side of Zhu Xi and Zhu Yu.

They had nowhere to retreat and could only look at their master helplessly.

Zhu Yu and Zhu Yu gritted their teeth and glared at Lu Yi, who was walking towards them and making their guards look extremely embarrassed. In their opinion, Lu Yi's trip was not giving face to the Zhu Sheng family, not giving face to the Prime Minister's Mansion, and was riding on the face of the Zhu family!

"Lu Yi, you are so arrogant!" Zhu Yu shouted angrily in a low voice.

"The emperor's scepter is here, why don't you perform the salute?" Lu Yi placed his left hand on the hilt of the sword at his waist.

After leaving the imperial city, Lu Yi put the ring that flew out of the inheritance stele on his middle finger. At this moment, he held the hilt of the knife and moved his fingers slightly, and the ring clicked on the hilt, making a crisp "ding ding" sound.

Zhu Yu and Zhu Xi glared at Lu Yi.

They were forced to salute someone in front of the 'Emperor's Scepter'. This was the first time in their lives that they had experienced such treatment.

Given their origins as descendants of saints, who would dare to force them to perform the ceremony?

With their fame and talent for literature and education, who would dare to force them to perform the ritual?

With their connections spread all over Gaojing, who would dare to force them to perform the ceremony?

Lu Yi dares!

Zhu Yu's face twisted and he clutched the folding fan tightly.

Zhu Xi stared at the staff for a while, then smiled, "Lord Tianyang is right. We should perform the ceremony."

Zhu? gritted his teeth and endured the severe pain from his broken ankle, stood up, supported himself on one leg, bent down little by little, and bowed to the scepter.

Zhu Yu waited until Zhu Yu finished his ceremony before he nodded, gritted his teeth, and bent down to imitate him.

The Shenwu general holding the scepter took two steps back.

Lu Yu looked at Zhu Yu, whose face was uncertain, and asked, "Did you instigate that person to cause trouble for me just now?"

Zhu Yu was indeed a disciple carefully trained by the Zhu family. After his initial anger, he had controlled his emotions in just a few words from Lu Yi and showed a perfect smile.

"What did Lord Tianyang say? I, Zhu Yu, am a descendant of a saint and a man of culture and education. How could I possibly do such a shameful thing as you said? Lord Tianyang, are you slandering my Zhu family's family education? Are you trying to provoke my disciples of the Saint Zhu?"

Lu Yi snapped the hilt of his knife with his fingers. He looked at Zhu Yu and continued to ask, "Xiong Dingtian, you sent him to kill me, right?"

Zhu Yu opened his folding fan with a snap and said coldly, "This is meaningless, Lord Tianyang. Just based on what you said, I can go to Wuyinfang Ling and report you to the police, saying that you slandered me!"

"Don't admit it?" Lu Yi shook his head: "A man should be bold and daring."

Zhu Yu smiled and said slowly: "I only know that everything must be based on personal and physical evidence. You have no evidence, you are just slandering people with empty words. According to Dayin Law, the crime of slander is..."

With a crisp sound of "pa", Lu Yi suddenly made a move and slapped Zhu Yu in the face.

Although Lu Yi did not use the Guixu Immortal Essence, his body had been tempered several times after killing Lu Que, Qi Fei and thousands of ghosts last night, making him several times stronger than an ordinary martial artist.

In the Secret History Bureau, Lu Yi transformed the Cang Hai Jing Yuan Gang in his body into Gui Xu Xian Yuan. His body also initially gained the power of the Infinite Gui Xu Body Tempering, and his whole body functions became increasingly powerful.

Relying solely on physical strength, Lu Yi's palm strike was so fast that it left no trace. Zhu Yu, Zhu Yi, and the guards around them, none of them could react in time, let alone see clearly what Lu Yi was doing.

Zhu Yu flew up in response, half of his cheek flesh was smashed to pieces by Lu Yi's slap, and more than a dozen of his teeth were smashed to pieces. Blood mixed with broken flesh and teeth kept flying out, spilling a large area of ​​blood on the ground.

With just this one blow, Zhu Yu was knocked unconscious and lay on the ground twitching like a half-dead fish.

Zhu Yu and the guards around him shouted in unison. Zhu Yu roared, "Lu Yu, you dare to hit the descendant of the saint?"

Lu Yi shook his hands and said coldly: "This is meaningless. Sir, just based on what you said, I can go to Wuyinfangling to report to the police and say that you slandered me!"

Lu Yi imitated Zhu Yu's words and repeated them to Zhu Yu.

Zhu? was shaking with anger. His broken leg was in great pain and he sat back heavily in the wheelchair.

He pointed at Lu Yi and said angrily: "I have witnesses!"

Lu Yi looked at the guards around Zhu Yu, then looked at Zhu Yu again and smiled: "This young master may not have read the Great Yin Law... You and Zhu Yu look somewhat alike, so you should be brothers? Are these people your guards?"

"According to the Great Yin Law, the testimony of relatives and servants cannot be used as evidence in court."

Lu Yi shook his head: "I know that you scholars are actually full of fools, without any literary talent, but you just like the romantic stuff... I advise you to go back and read more practical and useful books, such as "Da Yin Lu" and "Tai Zu Da Gao", these are useful things."

Zhu? gritted his teeth and looked at Lu Yi expressionlessly.

"Let's not waste any more time. The Great Yin Law? Haha."

"You have made an enemy of my Zhu family."

"We have been together for a long time." Lu Yi stretched out his hand, and in front of Zhu Xi's guards, he grabbed Zhu Xi's cheek and gently twisted it: "We have been together for a long time, don't you know?"
