Chapter 159: Carnival, Bloody Night (1)
Chapter 159 Carnival, Bloody Night (Part 1)
Ye Zi was just surprised at the arrival of Huangpu Yue. For Ye Zi, disguising her emotions was a very simple thing. Chunlan and Qiu Yue didn't know the eldest lady of the Huangpu family at all. They thought this was the hostess that the young master had found again, but looking at Ye Zi's expression, it didn't seem to look like it. At least at this stage, there is only Ye Zi who is recognized by the young master.
The middle-aged nobleman Li Fo, Ling Xiao, directly asked someone to take him to Mo Qing, and let Mo Qing take a look at him and arrange him. Ling Xiao believes that such a small thing is nothing to Mo Qing.
Li Fo thanked Ling Xiao very much. As a noble who once had a glorious aristocrat, Li Fo understood some of the habits of nobles. There were too many things to laugh in front of him and stab him in the back! It was rare that after he fell into ruin, he could actually meet a "good person" like Ling Xiao! A warm current flowed through his heart.
It is easy to add icing on the cake, but it is difficult to provide timely help. This is something that everyone knows, but only after experiencing it personally can you understand the true meaning of this sentence better!
Huang Puyue visited Ling Xiao’s Viscount’s Mansion accompanied by Ye Weini. She praised her endlessly and could not recognize her. The stunning beauty who was with her side had appeared in front of her several times.
That night, Huang Puyue lived in Viscount Mansion. Chunlan and Qiuyue arranged the rooms for him. There were countless empty rooms in Viscount Mansion, so it was too easy to find some rooms to arrange Huang Puyue and her four guards.
On the second day, it finally arrived at the most grand festival in the Blue Moon Empire, the Blast Lion King Carnival!
In fact, Ling Xiao was quite dissatisfied with this kind of festival in his heart. The so-called "no sun and moon" in the mountains. For cultivators, the concept of year is just a record of their own cultivation time. But since they have been integrated into this world, everyone around them regards it as an important day, then Ling Xiao has followed the local customs.
When this day came, Ling Xiao was still a little infected. This festive atmosphere formed a powerful aura over the entire Pengzes City! It infected everyone in the city, and even the civilians all had happy smiles on their faces. For them, who have worked hard for a year, the Carnival Day can temporarily forget all their unhappiness and then sincerely pray that life will be better in the coming year!
Huang Puyue sat quietly on the chair, looking at the wind chime playing the piano over there. She didn't know who this soft-looking girl was, but this did not prevent her from liking her piano sound.
"Sister Fengling's piano is so good! I would have the ability to do it!" Huang Puyue exclaimed sincerely, and then asked: "But... why do I think Sister Fengling seems to have something to worry about?"
Feng Ling smiled sweetly and said to Huang Puyue: "That must be because my sister has heard badly. I'm pretty good here!"
Huang Puyue smiled and was not convenient to ask about her identity, so she naturally had no way to judge whether the wind chime was happy.
Today is a carnival, but the defense power of Pengzes City has not been weakened. Ling Wu and Mo Qing have always felt that the three nobles were quiet and strange. Ling Xiao and Mo Qing completely cut off the two lines of smuggling and selling slaves in Pengzes City, which can be said to have fundamentally damaged the interests of these three nobles. But they have never reacted much. Although there are some small moves in private, the small moves have existed for many years!
Even though they temporarily tolerated Ling Xiao and Mo Qing, the three families also maintained an unanimous attitude towards the wealthy businessmen in the city and other nobles who turned to Ling Xiao!
This is the most strange thing! Not to mention other people, Baron Huang Qiang, who has a bad temper, suddenly became tolerant. If he had the temper before, even if he didn't dare to cause trouble for Ling Xiao, he would at least give the rich businessmen some color!
Therefore, after Mo Qing and Ling Xiao studied it, they came to a conclusion that they should be planning something. Perhaps they felt that the nobles in the city who were turning to Ling Xiao were not afraid of it. As long as Ling Xiao was defeated, everything else would be controlled by the three nobles!
But this is just a guess after all. The Carnival of the Blast Lion King has always been a festival that the Blue Moon Empire attaches most importance to, from princes and nobles to ordinary people. Therefore, even Uncle Fu felt that even if there was any conspiracy, it should not be held on this day!
So, when the sound of fighting sounded throughout the night sky on the night of the carnival, almost everyone was stunned!
The first reaction of Fu Bo and Ling Xiao was to gather everyone in the Viscount Mansion together, and then open the basement that had existed long ago, so that the people would go down to hide.
Although Huang Puyue wanted to stay on it, she could not resist the persistence of his four guards. The four guards also hid in the basement with Huang Puyue because their mission was to protect the lady, and the rest of the matter had nothing to do with them!
Fengling looked at Ling Xiao with some anticipation, but Ling Xiao signaled to the entrance of the basement. Fengling didn't say anything, turned around and walked in!
The entire Viscount Mansion was very lively just now, and now only Uncle Fu, Ling Xiao, Meng Li, Ye Zi, and Chunlan Qiuyue’s children were left. Ling Xiao wanted the three girls to hide in, but the three of them insisted on being with Ling Xiao.
Ling Xiao also knew the strength of the three women. If you follow him, nothing would happen.
"I didn't expect that this group of people would really dare to come at this time!"
Uncle Fu said in a low voice: "It seems that after this matter, we need to teach the three families a lesson!"
Ye Weini frowned and said softly: "In recent times, these three companies have not had any contact with the outside world. This matter may not be related to the three of them!"
Meng Li chuckled softly, "You don't understand what Uncle Fu means. Taking this opportunity tonight, you will simply clean up the aristocrats who were both disgusting!"
"Will this be criticized? After all, this is the territory of the young master!" Qiuyue said with a little sad face. Although her and Chunlan were maids, neither Fu nor Ye Zi nor Meng Li thought they were maids. Ye Zi even thought that the two girls were sisters.
"What's there to criticize? Can the young master resist after being bullied?" Chunlan said angrily: "Besides, in the entire Pengzes City, there are probably only these three nobles who will never support the young master, right? Apart from them, which one of them will not give a thumbs up? Apart from them, I'm afraid more people will use it as a gift for the carnival!"
At this time, a soldier from the Lightning Corps suddenly broke in outside, covered in blood. He didn't know whether it was his own or the enemy's, and his face was covered with blood, which made Chunlan and Qiuyue scream in low voices.
"Sir, go quickly! The other party has already hit the city gate! Our party... has suffered heavy casualties! Many robes have been killed!"
The soldier of the Lightning Corps said, his voice choked, and he was not afraid of bleeding on the battlefield, but watching the robes fall one by one by one by one is the most unwilling to accept.
"What? Why is this happening? What about Ling Wu? How many people are there on the other side, and what is the highest strength?" Uncle Fu asked in a low voice, his eyebrows standing up, obviously already angry.
Ling Xiao's face also became cold. Unexpectedly, with such powerful combat power, there would be heavy casualties?
"They... they have a very high-level warrior. As for what level, I don't know, those people are like mercenaries and are very good at it! They all look like elite warriors! There is no one that can identify identities, there are about 5,000 people! They attacked suddenly because today is a carnival night... the city gates are all open, and they killed in and beat them... We were caught off guard..." The soldier said, his breathing gradually became a little difficult, his eyes began to dissipate, and he was obviously seriously injured!
Ling Xiao immediately took out a healing pill from the ring and asked the soldier to take it. Then he looked at Uncle Fu deeply and listened to the shouts of killing that had already spread to the street outside. Obviously... he came here!
Uncle Fu snorted heavily: "Young Master, please feel free, let me go and watch!"
"Oh, Huo, Huo!~No one has to go, Ling Xiao, today is the day of your death!" A crazy laugh came from afar, and when the words fell, the man had already flew from the air!
"Sword Sect!"
Uncle Fu's eyes roared with a bloody roar: "Young Master, go quickly!" As he said that, he roared and went to meet him. The first-level demon sword master was like an ant in the eyes of the Sword Sect. The man in the air snorted heavily, and a overwhelming pressure swept over Uncle Fu!
Uncle Fu vomited blood from his mouth and was knocked away dozens of meters away!
"Ling Xiao! Come on your life!"
The man laughed strangely again, raised his hand and slapped Ling Xiao on the head! The powerful pressure attacked Ling Xiao along with the movements of this man.
Ling Xiao saw at a glance that this person was the one who attacked the prince's frame in the imperial capital and snatched the fifth-level monster! Although Ling Xiao did not have the ability to remember it, he would definitely not forget this powerful man who was so powerful that he was trembling with a long time!
Ye Weini, who was bounced away by this pressure, obviously also recognized who this person was, and thought with a pale face: Tonight's incident has nothing to do with the prince!
Ling Xiao fired a sword yesterday, and today his mental power has only been restored for more than half of his mental power, but his spiritual power has been replenished. Seeing Uncle Fu being injured by a blow, he spitted blood and flew backwards. Somewhere in his heart, it felt like he was stabbed by a needle, and it hurt a lot!
The old man followed him, arranged his life and took care of himself, allowing himself who did not understand the world to gain countless knowledge from him. He was humble, elegant, and had the style of an elder. When he encountered danger, he could show his iron-blooded side! Like a crazy lion protecting a cub!
It can be said that Uncle Fu’s current status in Ling Xiao’s mind is no worse than anyone else!
Such an old man was actually knocked away by a blow, and he didn't know how to live or die!
"You're looking for death!"
Ling Xiao shouted loudly, and the strange demon blood-red lotus sword appeared in his hand and slashed at the sword sect with a sword!
"Skimming light!"
A twisted wave of air suddenly appeared in the air, and an invisible sword energy that was dozens of meters long thundered towards the sword sect in the air!
"Oh Huo Huo Huo Huo Huo Huo Huo, little baby, what can you do..." The Sword Sect originally laughed wildly and looked at Ling Xiao with contempt. Unexpectedly, Ling Xiao's earth-shaking sword choked the second half of his words back!
Originally, Ling Xiao was knocked out without being affected by his own pressure. The Sword Sect was a little surprised! What strange martial arts this kid practiced could not be affected by his own pressure? How could it be?
As for the magic swordsman who came up on it, he didn't take it seriously at all, just an ant!
When the sword with a strange appearance appeared in Ling Xiao's hand, the sword sect was only slightly surprised, because this was the first time he had seen this weapon!
When Ling Xiao's sword energy was slashed out, the sword sect's face changed color! When he wanted to avoid it... he was extremely frightened to find that this sword energy could not be avoided!
With a roar, the vast internal force in his body instantly concentrated on his palms, facing the invisible sword energy, and rushed forward!
Since you can't hide, then face it head-on!
The brave one wins when we meet on a narrow road!
"boom!"
However, the Sword Sect let out a shrill cry, and his body was like the broken leaves in the wind, or like a lonely boat in the huge waves, and was suddenly thrown away!
Ling Xiao also spit out a mouthful of blood, his eyes were a little dim. Meng Li and Ye Zi, who were slightly injured, quickly came to support Ling Xiao.
"Go and see Uncle Fu!"
Ling Xiao's eyes were red and he shouted sternly.
"Young Master, don't worry... I... still die, I can't die!" A violent cough came from there, and Uncle Fu hunched over and walked towards this side step by step.
Chunlan hurried over and took out the pill. After Uncle Fu took it, he gasped for a few moments, then looked at Ling Xiao and smiled: "Young Master Shi Potian's shocking sword! It's a good fight!"
"Stop talking, Meng Li, go and see how Ling Wu is doing. I think, except for this Sword Sect, the rest of the people may not be very strong. You, Ye Zi, go too! If... Ling Wu still has the power of a battle! The three nobles' homes... will be raided! Don't kill them, I want to keep them!"
"Why?" Ye Weini asked subconsciously, and said with a pale face: "Those people deserve to die!" Ling Xiao was injured, Ye Weini's heart was cut like a knife, and the cruelty unique to the little girl thief appeared in her heart again.
