Unlimited estates for rural beauty-Chapter 651: Cheng (4)
"Try to capture her alive, it is said that Dugu Chen holds her in high regard."
"Hehehe, rest assured, big brother, ’Bi’ has it all figured out." After speaking, a fleeting shadow darted towards the large tree Feng Xuxu was near.
When the people below saw him attack the empress, wanting to come to her aid, they were entangled by others on the ground, unable to break free.
Feng Xuxu glanced from the corner of her eye, saw a streak of white light rushing towards her, gracefully arched her back, and when the sword light just passed, she somersaulted and landed lightly on the ground. The breeze in the sky lifted her ink-black hair and her long pleated skirt danced with it. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢
Standing on the tree trunk, Lou Qianbi saw this and grew even more impatient. On light feet, he tapped the branches and landed on the ground, facing Feng Xuxu directly. With a regretful shake of his head, he said, "Miss, your skin and flesh are so delicate, it’s unnecessary to cause yourself such suffering. Just give in, and I, your brother, am actually quite compassionate towards women."
In her hand, Feng Xuxu held a tree branch covered with small petals, clusters of pink blossoms that she brought to her nose, releasing a faint scent of peach blossoms. With her delicate fingers, she plucked one side, and with a gust of wind, the petals drifted away.
"Hehehe, a woman should be like a flower, to be cherished. You should just follow...," with a ’thud’ and eyes wide open, he lay on the ground, face-up to the sky, with a fine cut on his forehead. His mouth, opened in mid-speech, remained agape, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"Third brother!" Lou Qianlan, who had been watching from the side, went to pick up the lifeless Lou Qianbi, shaking him. He checked for breath and found none. With a slow close of his eyes, he put down the dead man, stood up in sadness, and when he opened his eyes again, they were filled with hatred rather than just anger.
Picking up the Treasured Sword from the ground, his wrist flicked, and a sword flower flashed by. Looking at her as if she were already dead, he said, "For refusing a toast only to drink a forfeit, today you shall join my brother in death."
"Hmph, I’ll fulfill your brotherly love, and let you accompany him to the underworld." Before he could speak again, a Changling whip cut through the silence and entwined his sword, one loop, two loops...
Lou Qianlan infused his Inner Strength into his sword and with a forceful tug, the Changling snapped into pieces, falling to the ground with the wind. Seeing this, she spun around, flinging a string of petals that targeted his vital points.
Lou Qianlan sneered, easily dodging the attack with a swift movement. In a blink, he was behind Feng Xuxu, his sword thrusting viciously towards her heart.
Feng Xuxu twisted her body to evade, the sword missing its mark. As the two faced each other at close quarters, she extended her slender arm, slightly adjusted her Spiritual Power, met his attacking arm, pulled on it, and pulled his body towards her. With a push, she sent him stumbling backward. Just as he seemed about to fall, she spun him back and fiercely struck him in the chest with her palm.
Lou Qianlan stepped back, looking at her in astonishment, as blood began to trickle from his mouth. Looking slowly at his own chest, he saw blood oozing out, staining his clothes with a clear lotus shape, the blood flowing from there. As his body slowly knelt down, he couldn’t believe he was dying amongst flowers. His head drooped, eyes open wide in death, blood still seeping from his mouth, dying with his eyes unshut.
Seeing that her mistress had killed them, Feng Qing also let down her guard, focusing on the remaining opponents in front of her. Her Treasured Sword continuously lunged at them. At that moment, the gates of Zhaoxia Palace were forced open, and a swarm of government troops and guards poured in, followed closely by Lou Qianyu.
