Chapter 250 Be Careful Of Evil

Xu Han's sword tip was cold, and the pale yellow sword intent wrapped around the scarlet sword body. It was like a python spitting out a poisonous letter. In a flash, it arrived in front of the left side of the Ancient Dao.

Gu Daozuo's heart skipped a beat at that time, but he didn't dare to be arrogant in the slightest.

From the beginning, they forcefully snatched away the witnesses and material evidence of the Drunken Immortal Pavilion's female corpse case, but Xu Han had only said a few words to rope in the crowd's momentum, causing the situation to instantly reverse. Coupled with his previous contact at the gate of Chang'an City, he had already realized what this seemingly ordinary youth was up to. Since he dared to accept this duel, he must have some support.

They had already lost the hearts of the people on this trip. If they could not retrieve those witnesses and material evidence, then how would they go back to hand over the mission?

Thinking of this, Gu Daozuo immediately raised his spirits and waved his saber towards Xu Han.

Bang!

When the swords met in midair, a loud and crisp sound rang out in front of the Tian Ce Mansion.

Berserk True Essence and Saber Intent surged out from the left side of the Ancient Dao and pressed down on Xu Han.

As for Xu Han, he was naturally unwilling to be outdone. A faint yellow sword intent surged out, carrying a faint dragon roar.

At the same time, the muscles beneath his clothes bulged, and the blood energy in his body surged, following the sword intent wrapped around his entire body, facing the blade on the left side of the Ancient Dao.

The old man in the crowd who was about to turn around and leave suddenly stopped. He turned his gaze in disbelief and saw the faint yellow sword intent surging from the youth's body. Instantly, a dense look of horror climbed onto the old man's brows. He seemed to be frozen in place, unable to move.

…

The power of Xu Han's sword intent combined with his physical strength caused Gu Daozuo's heart to tremble. At this moment, he finally understood why Xu Han was able to defeat Young Master Zhu. At his age, having such a cultivation was truly shocking.

But after all, he hadn't reached the Heavenly Hunt Realm yet. Although his cultivation was not ordinary, he still couldn't contend against the Gu Daozuo.

Boom!

After the two of them were stuck in a stalemate for about three to five breaths, a loud explosion erupted. At that moment, Xu Han's body retreated several zhang and crashed into the gate of the Tian Ce Mansion in a sorry state. Only then did he manage to stabilize his body.

The expression on Gu Dao's left face, which had obtained such a result, was somewhat solemn.

It wasn't that Xu Han had used some extraordinary means, but that battle just now. Although he was truly shocked by the power that Xu Han possessed, that power was far from enough to contend against a Heavenly Hunt Realm expert.

However, Xu Han accepted the bet so calmly. Could it be that this Manor Master Xu is really an ignorant fool?

Gu Daozuo, who had suffered several losses from Xu Han, naturally did not want to believe such a thing.

It was unknown when Gu Daozuo had been a little cautious when facing this Manor Master Xu. He even felt as if he was treading on thin ice, so much so that when this victory came too easily, he was actually a little timid.

Just as he was thinking about this, Manor Lord Xu stabilized his body and rushed forward again.

Gu Dao's left heart skipped a beat and he used all of his strength to resist again. However, in just a few breaths of time, Xu Han was unable to withstand the boundless power around the ancient commander and retreated abruptly once again.

…

Thus, what happened next in front of everyone was a scene like this.

Xu Han fought and retreated, but he was still unyielding, defeated and defeated.

In the span of a hundred breaths, the young master of the Tian Ce Mansion was already covered in injuries.

When such a look fell into the eyes of those people, they naturally felt that the Prefecture Master had risked his life in order to seek justice for everyone. For a moment, everyone's gazes towards Xu Han had also become moved.

Zhang Dongning also noticed this. He frowned and urged, "Commander Gu, let's finish this quickly."

Hearing this, Gu Daozuo felt the unusual gazes of the people around him. His heart sank and he nodded.

He finally put away the hesitation in his heart and swung the saber in his hand. An even more majestic aura surged up. He repelled Xu Han again, and then he pointed his toes down the mountain to catch up with Xu Han's retreating figure with the force of a tiger, wanting to give him a final blow.

When such a situation fell into the eyes of the common people, they immediately cried out in alarm, secretly worried that Xu Han would be defeated by this saber strike.

However, Xu Han's stubbornness exceeded everyone's expectations. Although his clothes were messy and there were many bloody wounds beneath the tears, compared to his Violet Firmament Realm physical cultivation, these seemingly shocking skin wounds weren't harmful at all.

His figure was still retreating, but the saber on the left side of the Ancient Dao had already landed on his head. At that time, Xu Han leaned his body with his sword, avoiding the whistling saber light.

The saber light on the left side of the ancient path fell into the air, but the floor paved with stone slates was suddenly broken apart by this saber strike, turning into powder particles.

Gu Daozuo was not discouraged when he missed the attack. He shouted and turned the long saber in his hand. At that moment, the blade rose horizontally and swept towards Xu Han's waist.

At that time, Xu Han's body still hadn't wiped out the remaining strength from the battle with the left side of the Ancient Dao. Seeing that the blade touched his body, he gritted his teeth and his right arm wrapped in white cloth suddenly swung out. He was actually about to have his flesh and blood to resist the whistling blade.

At this moment, Gu Daozuo saw clearly that Manor Master Xu had come to this point. He was at the end of his rope, and there was no other way. The worries in his heart dissipated as well. He withdrew some strength. After all, if he removed Xu Han's right arm in front of everyone, he would inevitably be held guilty. However, the strength on the blade was still enough to defeat Xu Han.

Zheng!

However, when the blade collided with Xu Han's right arm, it sounded like a golden stone. It was as if his saber hadn't struck a flesh and blood body, but rather a solid armor. At that time, Gu Daozhou's saber-wielding arm was also slightly numbed by the recoil from the blade.

Just as he was in a daze, Xu Han's expression changed. He stabilized his body, swung his sword, and pointed at Gu Daozhou's face once again. A pale yellow sword intent surged out and transformed into a flood dragon that wrapped around his sword edge.

Although Gu Daozuo was shocked that Xu Han still had the intention to resist to this extent, the sword intent was still far from enough to kill him. He waved his hand with the saber and the long saber fiercely collided with Xu Han's sword tip.

Pu!

A mouthful of blood sprayed out from Xu Han's mouth, and his body fell to the ground again.

When they reached the Heavenly Hunt Realm, both their True Essence and agility had undergone tremendous changes compared to before. This was also why the more they reached the latter four realms, the more difficult it would be for them to cross the realm and fight.

The smile on Gu Dao's left face became even more intense as he looked at Xu Han, whose aura was weak.

He proudly cupped his hands towards Xu Han and said, "Manor Master Xu, please forgive me."

Seeing this, Qin Keqing and Fang Ziyu hurriedly stepped forward to help Xu Han up on the ground. They looked at the left eyebrows of the ancient path, filled with resentment.

"Your skills are inferior to others, so you are willing to kneel down." Xu Han shook his head lonely at that time.

He then looked at the people around him and said, "Someone Xu, I'm ashamed of everyone."

When the commoners saw that Xu Han had already fought to such an extent, they would still blame Xu Han. They all fell silent at that time, but their faces couldn't conceal their disappointment.

"Then please invite Lord Zhang into the manor to get someone." After Xu Han finished speaking, he looked at Zhang Dongning and whispered.

Xu Han's calmness greatly exceeded Zhang Dongning's expectations. He was slightly stunned, but he still cupped his hands towards Xu Han and said, "Thank you, Manor Chief Xu." Then, he winked at the soldiers behind him, and the group of soldiers immediately understood what was going on and entered through the gates of Tiance Prefecture.

…

"Ai! I say, Hongjian, aren't these ten-odd carts of grain taken away?" Chu Chouli, who was standing beside a hill outside Chang'an City, looked at the carriages that were filled with grain and asked doubtfully.

Ye Hongjian ignored his thoughts. The girl dressed in red walked to the carriage and commanded the dozens of Tiance Prefecture soldiers she brought out to untie the ropes tied with grain on four or five of the carriages one by one.

'"Ah? I said, Hongjian, I just want the money for wine. You won't let me. Do you want to keep this grain for yourself?" I said, "You really are. How can this grain be so convenient as silver?" Chu Chouli apparently misunderstood Ye Hongjian's intentions, and at that time, he walked forward and muttered to her.

However, just as he finished speaking, the carriages that were loosened trembled, and several figures walked out of the carriages one after another.

He fixed his gaze on the beautiful ladies that had been brought back from the Drunken Immortal Pavilion a few days ago.

"Huh?" Chu Chouli was stunned for a moment before he regained his senses.

"Thank you, Benefactor." At that time, the dozen or so women bowed towards Ye Hongjian, their faces filled with gratitude.

"Don't thank me." However, Ye Hongjian waved her hand, "You guys voluntarily stayed behind. You have to be prepared for what you will face next."

"Benefactor, don't worry. The Yin Family has ruined our family. Even if we risk our lives, we still have to make the Yin Family pay with blood!" The dozen or so women spoke one after another with resolute expressions on their faces.

"I told you, why is this 10,000 stone grain so heavy? So you hid all these little ladies here! What about the rest?" Chu Chouli slapped his forehead, walked up and down, and shouted loudly.

Ye Hongjian rolled her eyes at him and looked at the convoy that had already gone far away. "The rest are gone. Only they are willing to stay and identify the Yin Family."

After all, they were all weak women without the strength of a chicken. It was already a great thing for a dozen of them to stand out, but Xu Han did not force them. He arranged for them to be put into the grain squad early this morning and go to Jizhou with one of them. Now that there was no Longevity Division there, it was at least enough for them to start a new life. To these women, this was the best way out.

"How about this?" Chu Chouli nodded and finally understood.

"Go to the forest and change your clothes. After you sneak into the city, go to the Marquis' Mansion of the Ning Kingdom to settle down first. I've already greeted you there. I'll come find you when I need you." Ye Hongjian looked back at the women and said.

When the women heard this, they obediently retreated into the woods. At that moment, rustling sounds of stripping could be heard from the woods.

On the side, Chu Chouli's heart itched when he heard this, and he stretched his neck to look inside.

"Big Brother Chu." However, this method had just begun when it was interrupted by Ye Hongjian's voice.

The young girl pointed to the carriages that were still on the side and said, "I'll trouble Big Brother Chu to run a few more times for the things hidden under the grain. I'll secretly bring them back to Tiance Prefecture tonight. I'll leave ten government troops to take care of them for you."

Hearing this, Chu Chouli quickly walked up and stretched out his hand to probe under the grain. He touched something that was hard and cold.

"What is it? Did you really leave behind some money to make ends meet? Big Brother Chu usually treats you well. Why do you give me half of it?" Chu Chouli asked with a smile on his face.

At that time, Ye Hongjian clapped her hands and smiled with narrowed eyes, "I can give it all to you."

Chu Chouli was stunned, as if he had thought of something. He withdrew his hand that had reached into the grain like it had been electrocuted, and his face turned deathly pale at that moment.

"Luck! Luck!"

He kept wiping his hands with his clothes and muttered to himself.

This appearance attracted a burst of laughter from the surrounding people.

…

"Reporting to Your Excellency, the entire manor has been searched for nothing."

Zhang Dongning, who had been waiting outside the manor for an hour, had received such a response from the guards.

The Imperial Historian's expression immediately darkened. He looked at Xu Han, whose face was still somewhat pale, and asked, " Manor Chief Xu, are you going to break your promise?"

Hearing this, Xu Han looked at Zhang Dongning with a stunned expression and asked, "What does Lord Zhang mean? You also saw how big my Tian Ce Mansion is and how few people there are? How can I watch over so many people? Perhaps they ran away by themselves while we were arguing!"

"You escaped by yourself?" Zhang Dongning paced back and forth in front of the Tian Ce Mansion for a while. "If a person can run, can those corpses run by themselves?"

'"Then I can't explain it clearly. What if those corpses died too wrongly before they died, and now that they see the sun again, they hid somewhere and waited for the dead of the night to seek their lives?" Xu Han smiled and said, but his gaze landed on Yin Cheng. Seeing that Yin Cheng's expression was ugly, he couldn't help but ask, "Are you right, Patriarch Yin?"

"The surname Xu, you are at least Great Zhou's qiu. You are ranked third. Don't you feel embarrassed by such a rogue behavior?" Seeing Xu Han's appearance, Gu Daozuo couldn't help but curse angrily.

"Commander Gu, what are you talking about? Since I have lost, I am naturally willing to admit defeat. However, this person has escaped. What can I do? Don't worry, I will apologize to His Majesty for this matter myself. I won't implicate everyone." Xu Han had a righteous look on his face, as if he really wanted to shoulder the responsibility alone.

However, Zhang Dongning knew very well that as long as the Azure Dragon Army was not rebuilt and Jizhou was still in Xu Han's hands, no one in Great Zhou would dare to do anything to him.

"Humph!" Thinking of this, Zhang Dongning waved his sleeves and cupped his hands towards Xu Han. "I'm going to experience Manor Chief Xu 's abilities. Goodbye!"

At this moment, he also understood. Before coming here today, he had heard that Xu Han had ordered people to send the money and rations they had obtained out of the city. He did not care about this matter. Now that he thought about it, it was very likely that the witnesses and material evidence had already left Chang'an with the soldiers from Big Yellow City. Previously, Xu Han had been fighting with them in front of the Tiance Prefecture Gate, so he was afraid that it was only a slow-moving plan. Thus, after saying this, he turned around without hesitation and angrily led everyone away.

Seeing their departing figures, a smile appeared on Xu Han's pale face.

At that time, he said loudly to Yin Cheng, who was in a sorry state.

"Patriarch Yin, take your time. Remember to light more candles at night, in case you get sneaky!"

Hearing this, Yin Cheng, who was not depressed, almost fell to the ground. However, he couldn't find the slightest bit of the aura that he had once exerted. Instead, it caused the onlookers to burst out laughing loudly.
