Chapter 395: The Death of Lan Gongliang

Winter is gone and spring is here.

March passed in the blink of an eye.

The Wu'an Marquis's mansion was decorated with lights and colorful decorations.

After the palace granted the marriage, Huangfu Rou and Shen Qing naturally came to the stage of discussing marriage.

After several rounds of discussions, Shen Qing set the wedding date for him and Huangfu Rou on the 30th of the first lunar month.

Now is their big day.

Shen Qing is indifferent, and he has a shallow foundation in the capital. He does not want to be too extravagant, and he does not want to involve too many complicated relationships in the name of a big wedding. He only invited some relatives and friends.

Therefore, the scene of gongs and drums as expected by the world did not appear, but all the necessary etiquette was given, which was more moving than any luxurious show.

After all the ups and downs along the way, Shen Qing finally has some peaceful days.

The wedding banquet ended after only one day.

In the hall of Shen's mansion, Shen Qing bid farewell to the guests and friends with a smile on his face.

Tian Xiaohu walked to the side of Shen Qing and said in a low voice: "My Lord, someone from the Li family is here."

"Huh? Why are they here?"

Shen Qing was a little surprised.

Under his deliberate control, no outsiders participated in this wedding, and the Li family and many other families in Kyoto were not on his invitation list.

Is it because of Li Yuyao?

Shen Qing immediately thought of this woman.

She is the daughter of the Li family, and must have a connection with the Li family.

Now it seems that only the Li family knows about it, and the Li family does not seem to have any intention of targeting him. After they suffered a loss, they frequently showed goodwill, which is not a big problem.

"Let them in." Shen Qing ordered with dignity.

Tian Xiaohu nodded heavily: "Yes, my Lord."

After a while, after a slight sound of footsteps, the people of the Li family walked in quietly.

The person in the lead was known to Shen Qing as Li Wenxu, the housekeeper of the Li family.

He obviously knew in advance that Shen Qing was unwilling to make it public, so this trip was low-key and secretive, and did not attract the attention of others.

After the housekeeper Li Wenxu respectfully presented a gift, he said some congratulations and did not exchange too many pleasantries with Shen Qing.

After handing the gift to Shen Qing, Li Wenxu and others left quietly as they came, without disturbing Shen Qing at all.

Such a style of doing things changed Shen Qing's impression of the Li family.

Late at night.

Huangfu Rou sat on the edge of the brand new bed with a red veil on her head.

A gust of spring breeze came in from the gap in the window, and the candlelight in the room swayed gently, making her shadow erratic.

When the spring breeze dissipated, the candlelight stopped swaying, and her shadow seemed to have a support and completely stabilized.

With a creak.

The door opened.

Hearing the familiar footsteps, Huangfu Rou's body tensed up.

After her family fell into decline, she had been practicing hard and constantly climbing up.

Even as a girl, she wanted to revitalize the Huangfu family.

She had never thought about the day when she would get married.

Not to mention, the man she married turned out to be her subordinate.

Not to mention, she actually liked this subordinate.

Footsteps were approaching.

Huangfu Rou's hands could not help but clench the wedding dress on her thighs.

Her heart began to beat, and she became even more nervous.

The red veil was lifted by the scale held by Shen Qing.

Even though she was usually cold and frosty, her face couldn't help but blush a little.

Even though she had seen this man in front of her countless times, she didn't dare to look up at him now.

Shen Qing, who was standing opposite Huangfu Rou, was stunned for a moment.

She was so beautiful.

The delicate facial features, vermilion lips, towering breasts, jade willow-like waist... became particularly moving under the reflection of the wedding dress and candlelight.

Even though Shen Qing had lived two lives, he couldn't help but feel a little nervous when he got married for the first time.

He brought two cups of muddy wine from the table, put them in front of Huangfu Rou, and said, "Let's drink a cup of wine together."

"Yes." Huangfu Rou shyly took the wine glass.

The two crossed their arms and drank it all in one gulp.

"Rou'er... I think it's late now, it's time to rest."

"Husband."

Shen Qing waved his hand, and a stream of spiritual power gushed out from his palm.

Huh...

A strong wind blew.

The red candles placed in the room were all extinguished at the same time.

...

The next morning, the sky was bright.

Shen Qing rarely had a good sleep.

At this time, he became much more mature, looking at Huangfu Rou curled up in his arms, his face was full of surprise.

Shen Qing didn't expect Huangfu Rou to be so tender and affectionate, far from being as unkind as she seemed on the surface.

After getting married, Shen Qing felt a lot more relaxed with the support of Huangfu Rou.

In the following days, Shen Qing handed over all the chores around him to Huangfu Rou, Tian Xiaohu and other loyal subordinates.

Tian Xiaohu was calm and capable, handled affairs in an orderly manner, and had followed him for many years since Hongshanzhai. He was a reliable person who could be trusted.

Not to mention Huangfu Rou, who was on duty in the Shanhai Division and had great ability.

More importantly, she had a lot of information, which made him know some unknown and complex relationships in Kyoto, making him more confident.

With their help, Shen Qing was able to get out of the tedious daily affairs and devote all his energy to the practice of martial arts.

Shen Qing knew that the Great Zhou was in chaos and the possibility of instability in the future was increasing.

In such a situation, strength is the foundation.

Only if his cultivation is strong enough can he protect himself and his family.

Therefore, Shen Qing did not dare to delay for a moment, and with the blessing of the panel, he practiced with all his strength and improved his cultivation.

…

The outer suburbs of Kyoto in Zhou Dynasty.

"ah!"

A scream suddenly came from the mountain forest.

The birds flew away in fright and fled in all directions.

In the dense forest, Lan Gongliang grabbed a burly man's hair and twisted his head off alive.

"This Huang Tianjiao's Qu Shuai is nothing more than that."

Lan Gongliang was wearing a simple suit of armor, and his tone of voice was somewhat cold and disdainful.

Behind him, many corpses of Huang Tianjiao were lying in a mess.

Lan Gongliang threw away the head in his hand.

"Speaking of which, the Huangtian Sect's people are really stupid. They rushed here one after another and killed countless people. They are still going on like this, not knowing whether to live or die."

Wei Chengye, who was standing next to Lan Gongliang, said: "Sir, maybe it's not that the people in the Huangtian Sect are stupid, but that we move faster, or maybe Master Lan is too strong."

Lan Gongliang said in a calm voice: "Huang Tianjiao is coming this time with great force, and we will definitely not give up easily. What we are dealing with now are just some frontline soldiers. We must not take it lightly, lest the boat capsize in the gutter."

Wei Chengye said with deep understanding: "I obey my orders."

Before he finished speaking, a rainbow light suddenly fell from the sky, breaking the tranquility in the forest.

boom!

The location where Wei Chengye was was exploded, and rubble flew into the air.

His body was like electricity, rolling on one side, like a spiritual snake swimming, and instantly moved away from the place, shouting: "Who!?"

The rainbow light faded, revealing the image of a burly man.

His whole body was covered with talismans, like a golden-armored war god.

He frowned when he saw the mess in front of him, with corpses scattered everywhere.

Wei Chengye sensed something was wrong, ripples appeared on his figure, and he disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye.

The burly man stared at somewhere in the void. He stamped his feet violently and pointed a finger somewhere in the void.

I saw that the finger seemed to have majestic spiritual power, and a clear light hit the void somewhere.

Bang!

Wei Chengye's figure was forced out of the void, staggering and almost falling to the ground.

Seeing this scene, Lan Gongliang's eyes narrowed slightly.

He looked up and saw a burly man with disheveled hair. His whole body was filled with spiritual power fluctuations, exuding the unique sense of oppression of those in power.

But for some reason, standing in front of him gave him a sense of emptiness, as if what was standing in front of him was not a human being, but an empty shell.

So much so that, with his cultivation in the Sky Travel Realm, he didn't realize that there was already such a person beside him?

There is weirdness.

Lan Gongliang's murderous intent suddenly arose, and he immediately channeled his spiritual power, and his whole body was enveloped in brilliance.

He waved his hand, and a blue thunder suddenly rushed towards the burly man.

Boom!

There was no blood and flesh flying around as expected.

The burly man just raised his arm and slapped away the thunder.

There wasn't even a trace on his body.

Lan Gongliang was even more surprised.

He has never seen such a physique.

"It's interesting."

"You must be Mr. Lan, I have admired you for a long time. Since we met today, I can't help but I will take your life away." The burly man said, his voice was like two rusty iron pieces constantly rubbing against each other. , extremely unpleasant to hear.

As soon as he finished speaking, he rushed towards Lan Gongliang like a torrent.

When the two sides got close, Lan Gongliang suddenly felt a suffocating pressure like a violent storm, as if the burly man was not flesh and blood, but a demon god from ancient times, lying across his body. forward.

As a strong man in the Kongyou Realm, Lan Gongliang has condensed his soul and can use his soul to perform all kinds of wonderful spells.

His fingertips moved slightly, and a jade talisman hidden in his sleeve suddenly turned into a stream of light, piercing the sky and heading straight towards the burly man, with overwhelming pressure.

This is a jade talisman comparable to a pseudo-magic weapon. It is engraved with characters from ancient times, and its power is extraordinary.

Keng!

The jade talisman hit the burly man's body, making a deafening sound.

Green and golden light billowed.

With the two people at the center, invisible brilliance and air waves rolled out and spread to all directions.

The forest floor seemed to have been plowed by an iron plow, and the trees fell down.

However, the burly man remained motionless, his muscles bulging as if solidified as a rock.

The jade talisman that was indestructible in the past collided with his body, leaving not even a trace.

Lan Gongliang's body flashed, like a ghost, and he was close to the burly man in an instant, and his body moved strangely around his flank.

In the flash of lightning, he raised his hand to recall the jade talisman in mid-air. His spiritual power surged and turned into bright green light. It wrapped the jade talisman and struck hard at the man's ribs.

This is his unique "Spiritual Snake Exploration" technique, which specializes in key points and is extremely suitable for close combat. At this time, it is controlled by him with magic weapons, making it even more terrifying.

The burly man seemed alert, his huge body tilted slightly to one side like a fallen leaf.

laugh!

The jade talisman seemed to have eyes. Like hitting a stubborn stone, green light embedded itself in the man's arm, cutting off half of his shoulder.

Blood spurted out and turned into blood mist.

The burly man looked down at the wound. There was no sign of pain on his face, only a hint of surprise and an unconcealed fighting spirit.

He grinned and laughed like thunder: "As expected of a martial artist in the Kongyou Realm, he indeed has some methods that can break through the physical defense of this ancient martial artist. It is really powerful."

The burly man opened his mouth and spit out a golden light.

Look carefully, it turns out to be a talisman.

Before Lan Gongliang understood what was going on, a dazzling golden light enveloped him.

The light exploded like the sun.

boom!

Lan Gongliang looked a little embarrassed.

Ignoring the traces left by the explosion of the talisman all over his body, he suddenly waved his right hand, causing the surrounding spiritual energy to surge out like a frenzy. The force was so fierce that it was shocking.

Waves of roars echoed between heaven and earth.

The thick talismans on the burly man's body rattled.

Before Lan Gongliang could make any move, he shouted softly, and his whole body suddenly turned into a giant statue. He slapped it with both hands and hit Lan Gongliang directly.

boom!

With a loud noise, Lan Gongliang flew upside down like a leaf blown up by the strong wind. Along the way, several mountains he passed collapsed and disintegrated.

He coughed out a mouthful of blood, his face turned pale as frost, and his soul almost left his body.

Wei Chengye, who was watching the battle from afar, was horrified when he saw this, and his face instantly turned livid.

Even Master Lan from the Sky Travel Realm is no match for him.

Could it be that...

Is this the legendary Taoist from Huang Tianjiao?

The more Wei Chengye thought about it, the more frightened he became, and his heart sank to the bottom.

"It seems that the officials of this great Zhou Dynasty are nothing more than this!" He walked up to Lan Gongliang and said condescendingly.

With a flick of his finger, a talisman was attached to Lan Gongliang's body.

The talisman shines brightly.

There was a muffled bang, which directly wiped out Lan Gongliang's energy.

Lan Gongliang looked horrified and tried to stabilize his injuries.

It's a pity that his physical body has begun to lose its vitality and it is difficult to revive it.

He simply had a sudden change of heart and poured all his spiritual power directly into his soul, trying to escape with his soul.

After cultivating to the realm of air travel, his soul can leave the body and travel around the world.

As long as he can find a suitable flesh shell, it will be fine even if his body falls and dies, as he has a second life.

The burly man snorted coldly, raised his right hand, and the lightning flashed in his palm, instantly capturing Lan Gongliang's soul.

As soon as he opened his mouth and inhaled, the soul turned into a pure energy and was swallowed up by him.

"No!"

Lan Gongliang let out a scream, which finally stopped abruptly.

The burly man kept chewing in his mouth, then spit out a brand new talisman and hung it in a conspicuous position on his body.

After doing all this, the burly man looked back towards Kyoto in the distance, and murmured with a smile: "It's almost time. The world is too crowded to accommodate so many people, so we can only work hard to make way for the Ji family to abdicate. , the space has been reserved for us.”

"ah!"

Wei Chengye, who was hiding in the dark, panicked when he saw this scene and wanted to escape as soon as possible.

The burly man was not embarrassed, he smiled contemptuously.

Under his gaze, Wei Chengye's figure disappeared from his sight little by little. (End of chapter)
