Chapter 266: So fierce, I like it so much
The silver moon hung high in the sky, startled birds scattered in all directions, and lights were lit in the houses.

The masters of the palace shouted “Bold”, which immediately woke up the sleeping Empress Dowager and Luo Xiangzhu. The two women were in a foreign country and were very alert. They slept in their clothes. Upon hearing the words, they turned over and got out of bed. They turned on the lights and could vaguely see the scattered figures outside the window, but they were afraid of being lost and were a little scared, so they did not open the door or window.

Fan Hongsheng saw that the guards surrounding him were more powerful and had colder temperaments than the others. Although he didn’t know the guards’ specific strengths, he knew that they must be experts since they could find him so quickly. He didn’t dare to act rashly for a moment.

The Queen Mother’s personal guard, Jing Jin, who had fought with Zhao Wumian in the palace, came to the window and reminded the Queen Mother, “There is a thief sneaking in, Miss, don’t be afraid, wait for me to deal with it.”

When they were out, the secret guards would naturally not call the empress dowager “Madam”… Although it was inappropriate to call her “Miss” given her age, she also didn’t like to hear the title of “Madam”. Anyway, she looked no different from a woman in her twenties.

The Queen Mother stood in front of the window, nodded slightly, and said with a worried tone, “The Marquis has not recovered yet, so remember to protect him.”

Jing Jin nodded slightly, and seeing that Fan Hongsheng did not make any unusual movements for the time being, he went to Zhao Wumian’s room alone, in case there were other thieves trying to murder him. However, he could not find Zhao Wumian, and was stunned.

Shen Lian stood on the eaves, his hand on his sword, his face stern and his aura grim, “Who are you? How dare you sneak into the young lady’s room at night?”

Fan Hongsheng was unsure of the strength of these guards, and was still trying to figure out whether he could take advantage of their encirclement and kill Zhao Wumian. But when he saw that they did not attack him directly, he decided to get away with it.

“I am also a guest of Emei, and I have some business dealings with the Tang family. I will also stay at Kefeng tonight. Most of the people in Shu have gone to Chengdu. I saw that there are still fellow Taoists living in Kefeng. I was a little curious, so I came to take a look. I apologize for disturbing you all.”

“Doing business with the Tang family?” Shen Lian frowned slightly, thinking that he was not lying. After all, the Tang family and Emei were not made of clay, and not just anyone could sneak into this place. But the only business partner of the Tang family that they knew of was the Fan family…

“What’s your name? Tell me the truth.”

“Haha, I’m from Jiangnan…” Fan Hongsheng smiled.

Before Fan Hongsheng finished speaking, Zi Yi, who heard the noise, walked out of the house. When she saw him, she raised her eyebrows and said, “Huh? Isn’t this the Jiuli man who chased me and told me to get lost? Why did he come to Emei? Why is he still haunting me?”

Upon hearing this, Fan Hongsheng was stunned. He turned his head to look and then froze in place with a very interesting expression.

This is also the case of enemies meeting on a narrow road. A few days ago, Zi Yi went to Jiuli to steal medicinal herbs to make poison pills for Zhao Wumian. The person who led the hunt for her was Fan Hongsheng.

Fan Hongsheng had already chased to Shu at that time, which was not far from Emei. So he accepted Master Fan’s order and did one more thing for him before returning to the headquarters.

In fact, Fan Hongsheng didn’t care much about Zi Yi, the petty thief. After all, a thief is just a thief. He just stole things, not people. It’s not that serious. But why did he see her here?

Damn, this woman has been Zhao Wumian’s man from the beginning! Zhao Wumian killed the second son of the Fan family first, and before we went to seek revenge on him, he sent people to our Fan family to steal things! ?
But where is Mu Lier? Why is she nowhere to be found? She must still be suffering from the poison.

In fact, Mu Lier heard the noise outside and her heart tightened. She was still adjusting her clothes… She couldn’t face the enemy with her clothes in disarray, and with the help of the masters from the palace, it was basically enough. She still stayed in the room to protect Zhao Wumian.

Fan Hongsheng was a little annoyed. Now that his identity had been revealed by Zi Yi, it would be wishful thinking for him to get away with it. So as soon as this thought flashed through his mind, he immediately took the initiative and threw a few poison pills with his fingertips.

The poisonous tiles hit the corner of the eaves and exploded instantly, and a light blue poisonous mist dissipated. In less than a breath, it filled the area several feet around.

Jiuli was an expert at using poison. As early as when Ziyi pointed out Fan Hongsheng’s identity, the surrounding palace masters had been on guard. They immediately held their breath and stomped their feet, surrounding and killing Fan Hongsheng.

Dozens of shining weapons reflected a cold glow in the moonlight, and the sword light was like a tide.

Surrounded by more than a dozen masters, even Zhao Wumian would have died if the Queen Mother had not been there to protect him. The same was true for Fan Hongsheng. His only way to survive was to take hostages.

Therefore, the moment he threw the poison pill, he suddenly rushed towards the door of the Queen Mother’s room, intending to capture the “young lady” mentioned by the guard first.

Fan Hongsheng had already reached the Empress Dowager’s house, and the door was not far from him. In order to survive, he exerted his full speed and shot towards the house like a crossbow arrow. However, with the presence of the palace masters, it was pure fantasy for him to capture the Empress Dowager. However, he should be able to smash the door and scare the Empress Dowager.

But at this moment, the wall of the house behind Zi Yi suddenly exploded.

Boom————

Then, a residual image suddenly rushed out from the broken brick debris, like a thunder tearing the sky. A hole separated to the left and right instantly appeared in the poisonous fog, and then flashed by the sword light and shadow of the palace master!

Although he was a step slower than the palace masters, he was the first to arrive and got close to Fan Hongsheng and grabbed his calf.

Click————

Without any martial arts skills, relying solely on the tremendous finger strength, the moment his palm touched Fan Hongsheng’s calf, a crisp bone-breaking sound was heard. Fan Hongsheng’s close-range move was almost reaching the Empress Dowager’s door, but it suddenly stopped in mid-air, as if the pause button was pressed. It was a bit funny for a moment.

Fan Hongsheng’s eyes were still fixed on the dark door, and he was a little slow to react. Then, with severe pain in his legs, he was dragged backwards. In his field of vision, he was a little further away from the door. Then, he suddenly moved forward, and it was Zhao Wumian who clamped his legs, and first pulled him backwards to gain momentum as if swinging a meteor hammer, and then dragged him and slammed him towards the door.

bang——

Fan Hongsheng’s face slammed heavily against the door, causing wood chips to fly everywhere and a strong wind to instantly extinguish all the lights in the room. The empress dowager, who was sitting at the table a little uncomfortably, was really frightened. She thought it was a thief trying to break in and take her hostage, but when she looked closely, she saw Zhao Wumian standing behind the door, holding a stranger with bruised features in his hand.

The Queen Mother was no longer afraid, and even wanted to ask with a smile, “Hasn’t Zhao Wumian recovered yet? Why did he come to protect her? Is it because he ate the food she made? Or is it to protect her and unleash his full potential?”
But before she finished her words, she noticed that there seemed to be something wrong with Zhao Wumian’s condition. His eyes were bloodshot and fierce, completely different from his usual clear and gentle demeanor.

The Queen Mother stood there in a daze, staring at Zhao Wumian with her beautiful eyes without blinking.

When the surrounding palace masters saw Zhao Wumian coming, they quickly put away their swords to avoid accidental injuries.

Zi Yi blinked and looked at the big hole beside her that was smashed by Zhao Wumian. Mu Lier, wearing a white dress, walked out of the hole with an air of fairy. There was no sign of lovemaking at all.

She frowned slightly, looking a little worried, “He rushed out suddenly when he heard the noise outside… Is he digesting the effects of the medicine?”

Zi Yi nodded slightly, “The Xiayun Gu is refined in your body, and contains all your pure internal energy. The medicinal power is probably stronger than the Hanyu Gu. Instead of sitting in meditation and regulating your breath, it would be more beneficial to have a good fight right now…”

Before he finished speaking, there was another “boom” sound. It turned out that Zhao Wumian was holding Fan Hongsheng’s legs. After using him to smash the wooden door, he seemed not satisfied yet and dragged him to smash the wall.

Fan Hongsheng’s strength was definitely not inferior to any of the palace masters present. He had a tough physique and it was impossible for him to lose his combat effectiveness after being hit twice. Although his face was bruised and bloody, his eyes were fierce. With a shake of his forearm, a dagger popped out from his sleeve and slashed at Zhao Wumian’s arm.

But when the sword was halfway out, it lost its balance due to inertia and was smashed against the wall by Zhao Wumian as if it were a real flesh hammer. After one wall was broken, he moved to the other.

Eighty, eighty… In just three or two seconds, the room where the empress dowager was temporarily staying was leaking air from all sides. The empress dowager was still sitting at the table, looking at Zhao Wumian with a sidelong glance, her expression was calm as if she was watching a play. This indifferent attitude scared the palace masters half to death, and they quickly gathered together to protect the empress dowager.

“The Marquis seems to be a little bit abnormal, Miss, please be careful…”

“What is there to stop? Can the Marquis harm me?” The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows and was not afraid at all.

After these words came out, before the imperial master could speak, Zhao Wumian stared at her with bloodshot eyes, panting heavily, speaking fiercely, and took the opportunity to curse her:
“Why are you pretending to be so high and mighty? With your mediocre skills, if I really want to attack you, you will be crippled for the rest of your life. I, I am not in a good condition now, run as far as you can, don’t let me hurt you by mistake!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Wumian started smashing Fan Hongsheng again, and from time to time, broken bricks mixed with blood splashed around the empress dowager.

Upon hearing this, the masters of the palace began to tremble in their hearts. These words could carry a death sentence. They all remained silent and secretly observed the Empress Dowager’s expression.

The queen mother sat in the chair expressionless and said nothing.

The masters of the palace all thought that something was not good, but with Zhao Wumian’s status, they could only wait until they returned to Beijing and let the emperor punish them. Anyone who dared to speak out at this moment might become the empress dowager’s punching bag, so they all kept silent.

But Zhao Wumian barely regained some composure after hitting him more than ten times. He stopped, gasped, and looked down.

Fan Hongsheng in his hand was indeed a master carefully trained by the Fan family. He had an impeccable physique and could still be seen in human form. However, a master of his level was being used as a weapon in front of Zhao Wumian. It was inevitable that his heart was broken and he was furious. As soon as Zhao Wumian stopped, he immediately wanted to swing his dagger and chop him.

But no matter how hard he tried, his body felt a little strange and there was no response. When he lowered his eyes, he saw that his arms were twisted and distorted into a knot.

Then Fan Hongsheng’s ferocious expression froze, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood, his head tilted, and it was unclear whether he was dead or unconscious.

Losing is a small matter, but being teased like a toy without even fighting, given Fan Hongsheng’s pride as a member of the Jiuli tribe, he naturally couldn’t stand this stimulation.

Zhao Wumian threw Fan Hongsheng down, gasping for breath. The medicinal power of the Xiayun Gu was still penetrating into his meridians and internal organs. In order to digest the medicinal power, his organs were running at high speed like a sophisticated machine. Even without the Heavenly Demon Blood Solution, his skin was slightly flushed and there was a faint white mist rising from his body surface.

He was full of murderous intent, his body was covered with the blood of Fan Hongsheng, and standing among the rubble was truly frightening.

The Queen Mother stood up and wanted to go and ask about Zhao Wumian’s condition, but the palace masters were worried that Zhao Wumian might be injured accidentally, so they surrounded the Queen Mother and would not let her go. Then Luo Xiangzhu, who had been watching the battle quietly in another house, trotted over, approached Zhao Wumian, looked at him a few times, and his eyes were slightly worried.

What’s wrong with you? Are you okay?
The mute knew that Mu Li’er had helped to refine the Cloud Gu, but he didn’t know that Zhao Wumian had absorbed it tonight. At this moment, he knew nothing about Zhao Wumian’s physical condition. But when he saw the white mist coming out of his body, he thought that Zhao Wumian saw a thief sneaking in, so he used the Heavenly Demon Blood Solution without caring about his health…

Zhao Wumian would have to fall down every time he used this secret method. Moreover, he had already been exhausted after using the Red Silk of Naraku. If he used the Blood of the Heavenly Demon now, he would probably be unconscious for several days.

Alas, you always try so hard to protect us, you must be feeling very uncomfortable now, right?
Thinking of this, Luo Xiangzhu gently patted her shoulder with her little hand.

You must be exhausted. You can lean on my shoulder.

That pitiful, delicate and beautiful face carried the youthful spirit and innocent concern of a girl. Even if Zhao Wumian was furious, he couldn’t be mean to her. He even had the urge to pinch Luo Xiangzhu’s little face affectionately.

So Zhao Wumian really pinched her. He raised his hand and pinched Luo Xiangzhu’s fair and tender face. The touch was soft, the skin was very smooth, and there was warmth…

Luo Xiangzhu’s slightly concerned expression froze.

Snapped—-

Mu Lier appeared beside Zhao Wumian without knowing when, and slapped Zhao Wumian’s hand away, her eyes cold, “Bullying your senior sister?”

Zhao Wumian reacted, withdrew his hand and apologized to Luo Xiangzhu.

Luo Xiangzhu put her small hand on the place that Zhao Wumian had just touched. Considering her relationship and feelings with Zhao Wumian, she was not really angry. She just felt that Zhao Wumian had pinched her face in front of her master, and she felt a little awkward and embarrassed as if she was being so close to her lover in front of her elders. So she glared at Zhao Wumian with a little shame and anger, then hid behind Mu Li’er and didn’t look at him.

At this time, late at night, Emei was already quiet, so the sound of Zhao Wumian smashing the wall must have spread, and soon, Tang Weiyu flew over. At this time, he was still swinging on the swing with Mrs. Tang to explain what had happened recently, but Zhao Wumian was a benefactor, and there was a suspected fight on Kefeng, so he had to rush over.

Along with them came several Emei disciples with high martial arts skills, as well as Tang Xingwen, Tang Baicen and others, all of whom were his confidants.

“My Lord.” Tang Weiyu bowed and looked at the mess on the ground, a little puzzled, “Is this… a thief sneaking in?”

“Um, the Fan family of Jiuli.” Zi Yi walked over in a very good mood.

When Fan Hongsheng was chasing her, he cursed her a lot. If Ziyi had been unable to defeat him, she would have chopped off his head long ago. In fact, she had been holding a grudge in her heart, and seeing Zhao Wumian using him as a human hammer, she felt so happy.

“The Fan family.” Tang Weiyu was stunned. He could guess from Master Fan’s letter that the Fan family wanted to use the Tang family and Emei as dogs, but he did not expect that the Fan family would dare to sneak into Kefeng and assassinate.

Mrs. Tang’s matter was settled tonight, and Tang Weiyu naturally stood on Zhao Wumian’s side. However, time was tight and she had no time to settle ties with the Fan family, which allowed Fan Hongsheng to go to Mount Emei.

He was just about to apologize, but when Tang Weiyu’s son Tang Baicen saw Fan Hongsheng, he was stunned for a moment and immediately realized that he was being tricked by this guy. Worried that Zhao Wumian would get angry and implicate Emei and the Tang family, he quickly lifted the hem of his robe and knelt down to Zhao Wumian to confess his guilt.

Tang Weiyu raised her eyebrows. Her son had never been very smart, but how come he reacted a little faster tonight? Considering Zhao Wumian’s current status in Tang Weiyu’s heart, his assassination was naturally due to Tang Weiyu’s failure to protect him, so he should naturally apologize.

Since his son had already knelt, he naturally had to express his stance as well and knelt down with him. The confidants behind him looked at each other, and then followed suit and knelt down.

The arrogance of a martial arts master is nothing compared to his wife’s life.

Everyone present was shocked. Zhao Wumian couldn’t understand why these people suddenly respected him so much. He only understood when Tang Baicen admitted his mistake in tears.

“It’s just a little information. The Fan family will know it sooner or later.” Zhao Wumian didn’t care about it. He shook his head slightly and mentioned Fan Hongsheng and threw it to Tang Weiyu.

“Back then, Master was poisoned by Mingye Brew… That poison was used for interrogation, right? This man is still breathing, so I’ll hand him over to Patriarch Tang. We don’t know much about Jiuli at the moment, so it would be best if we could get some information out of him.”

Tang Weiyu nodded slightly, and then looked at Zhao Wumian and pondered for a while, “Has the cooperation between the Tang family and the Fan family not been terminated yet?”

“No… But if the Marquis wants to encircle and suppress Jiuli, the Tang family and Emei will definitely come out in full force and spare no effort to help the Marquis.”

“No need.” Zhao Wumian waved his hand slightly, and then whispered a few words to Tang Weiyu.

The Fan family did not know that Zhao Wumian had saved Madam Tang’s life, nor did they know this favor, nor did they know that Tang Weiyu had sincerely submitted to Zhao Wumian. They only knew that Tang Weiyu was defeated by Zhao Wumian, and due to pressure from the court, she had to help Mu Lier detoxify. In this case, it would be a waste to directly sever ties with the Fan family. It would be better to pretend to continue cooperating with the Fan family and become Zhao Wumian’s secret agent.

There are details on how to fool the Fan family, but at the moment, because of the Xiayun Gu, Zhao Wumian’s head was a little dizzy. He just told Tang Weiyu the general direction and waved goodbye to let them leave.

“Everyone, go down. We will leave Emei after one more night of rest. You can interrogate them at night.”

“Yes.” Tang Weiyu thought about it for a while and didn’t dare to disturb him any further. He led a group of trusted people away, but arranged many guards near Kefeng. He also kicked Tang Baicen’s butt a few times and used family rules to punish him when he returned.

This stupid guy can’t even understand other people’s tricks. I guess Tang Weiyu protects him too well.

That night, Tang Baicen’s screams almost echoed throughout Emei.

Later, Fan Hongsheng was saved by the Tang family and released back to the Fan family… Of course, this was ordered by Zhao Wumian. Fan Hongsheng’s limbs were disabled, and even if he was cured, he would still be disabled and had no fighting ability at all. It would be better to let the Tang family release him and say that their Tang family had always held a grudge against Zhao Wumian, so they found a way to rescue Fan Hongsheng from Zhao Wumian. This was a token of their cooperation with the Fan family.

But that was a few days later.

Tonight, Zhao Wumian was really tortured by the effect of the medicine. He was just about to find another room to rest and absorb the effect of the medicine, but he was stopped by the Queen Mother after taking just a few steps.

“My Lord, do you have nothing to say to me?”

Zhao Wumian reacted and thought to himself that something was wrong. The superior had scolded the empress dowager a few words at that time. It was obviously his fault. Moreover, the empress dowager had been living a life of luxury since childhood. She was born the daughter of the Shen family and became the queen at the age of eighteen. She had probably never been scolded like this since she was a child. She must have felt aggrieved and angry in her heart.

He turned around, bowed his hands and apologized sincerely: “The Imperial Master made the Xiayun Gu overnight. I absorbed the medicinal power and my mind was confused. I contradicted the Queen Mother… Please forgive me.”

The Queen Mother still had no expression on her face at this moment, maintaining the majesty and nobility of a mother of the country. Her eyebrows were slightly raised, “Is that all?”

Zhao Wumian pondered for a while, “After returning to Beijing, next time there is a chance, I will definitely take the Queen Mother out of Beijing to play in the martial arts world.”

The Queen Mother should like these.

The Queen Mother narrowed her beautiful eyes, but remained expressionless as she repeated, “Is that all?”

Zhao Wumian was a little confused. Isn’t this enough? He held up two fingers and said, “Take the Queen Mother out of the capital twice?”

The Queen Mother stared at Zhao Wumian for a few seconds without saying a word. It was extremely oppressive. The masters around were all silent. Only the Queen Mother’s sister, Mu Lier, stepped forward and spoke for Zhao Wumian.
“The disciple didn’t mean it. Why are you, as an elder, angry with him? He rushed out before he even absorbed all the medicinal power. He did it to protect you. He is angry with you if he wants to. What else do you want from him?”

The Queen Mother retracted her gaze and shook her head slightly, “Yes, it was me who acted inappropriately.”

The Queen Mother turned around and said, “My Lord, please have a good rest tonight. What would you like to eat tomorrow morning?”

“Steamed buns, fried dough sticks, soy milk, and the like.”

The Queen Mother nodded slightly, and found another room, sat on the couch, took off her boots, and slept in her clothes… After a few seconds, she turned over, curled up her body, and her beautiful eyes sparkled in the night, and for some reason, she seemed a little excited.

Zhao Wumian, who is always elegant and gentle, suddenly becomes fierce to her. There is such a contrast and a different kind of excitement.

If Zhao Wumian really scolded her, the Queen Mother would definitely be angry, but Zhao Wumian didn’t mean it, and after being mean to her, he would apologize honestly… The Queen Mother couldn’t help but rub her plump legs. This feeling made her a little fascinated.

She had such a bad attitude just now, wouldn’t Zhao Wumian, under the influence of the drug, say a few more harsh words to her?
I really want to see Zhao Wumian be mean to her again, and then apologize to her honestly afterwards…

No matter how well Zhao Wumian understood women’s hearts, he couldn’t guess the empress dowager’s strange habit of being both M and S. He found another room, sat cross-legged, and regulated his breathing to enter a state of meditation. Zi Yi and Mu Li’er then came into the room together. Zhao Wumian smelled the different fragrances of the two women, and he found it difficult to concentrate and became restless.

This is a physiological reaction after most of the medicinal power has been absorbed and transformed into qi and blood…in other words, it is over-supplemented.

With Zi Yi’s ability, she could naturally tell Zhao Wumian’s physical condition at a glance… If she had gone too far, she would have gone too far. Would she let Zhao Wumian have fun with Mu Lier in front of her?

Anyway, the effect of the medicine will not disappear in Zhao Wumian’s body. At most, Zhao Wumian will feel a little hot somewhere. He just needs to hold it in. It won’t do any harm to his body.

But it wasn’t until Zhao Wumian looked up at her that they stared at each other.

It’s not that Zhao Wumian wanted to do anything to Zi Yi, he just felt a little bit of excitement in his heart when he thought of Zi Yi’s dedication to him during this period of time because of the Xiayun Gu in his body.

Zi Yi couldn’t stand that look, and said to Mu Li’er, ‘I have nothing to do from now on, so you just protect him well.’ Then she turned around and left in a hurry.

The little white snake coiled on Zi Yi’s shoulder and said to Zhao Wumian, “See you tomorrow~”

“Hey, this woman is really weird.” Mu Lier shook her head slightly, came to sit beside Zhao Wumian and prepared to feel his pulse. Then she saw that Zhao Wumian was still covered in Fan Hongsheng’s blood, so she also stood up and walked out, with a fragrant breeze blowing past, “Boil a bucket of water and take a bath. You are covered in blood and stink.”

Gurgle gurgle————

After a moment, Mu Lier stood behind the screen, pouring hot water into the bathtub. Her slender waist was slightly bent, and her full and round buttocks were pushed back, leaving an amazing curve and arc on her fairy-like white dress. Her temperament was so cold and arrogant, but her figure was so good, which gave off a unique sense of excitement and worldly touch.

Suddenly, Mu Lier felt something behind her buttocks. She was slightly stunned and saw Zhao Wumian’s hand reaching into the world.

stingy.

Mu Lier’s legs went limp immediately and the bucket fell down. She held onto the edge of the tub with both hands to avoid falling. Her mature and beautiful face looked back with a bit of confusion and shyness.

Zhao Wumian lifted her skirt with one hand, stood behind her, and came forward, “Master…”

“You, I told you not to call me Master…”

“Haha, Master actually enjoys it deep down, right? Every time I call you Master, your body…”

“Shut up! Evil disciple! You, you!”

Mu Lier was so angry that her teeth itched, but her eyebrows suddenly frowned, she groaned, and cursed incoherently, “You, you haven’t taken a shower yet…”

“Master, can’t you take a bath with me?”

Plop————

There was the sound of someone entering the water.

I just don’t know why, but the sound of people falling into the water keeps coming back and forth.

What Zhao Wumian admired most about Zi Yi was that she could actually see Mu Lier’s physique at a glance.

Take a bath, get in the water…really get in the water.

Zi Yi actually didn’t run far. She was standing outside the house, raising her hand and gently stroking her hair. After rubbing it a little, some white could be seen.

She gathered up her jet-black hair, looking at the white dots inside, and her faint sigh echoed in the evening breeze.
