Dynasty Call: Low-key Struggle for Hegemony

Three days later, all counties received the order from King Chu.

The King of Chu sent Wu Zhixiong, the governor of Lianyang County, to Huiyang County.

Huiyang County is adjacent to Lianyang County, and it only takes three days to get to Huiyang County from Lianyang County.

Chu Qingyan, who should have been anxious about Wu Zhixiong's arrival, was now full of surprise:

"The King of Chu is likely to intercept and kill Wu Zhixiong?"

Liang Wenyu nodded solemnly and said:

"Yes, if I haven't guessed, King Chu's next step is not to go to Ziyang County but to Lianyang County."

Zhou Qiuya on the side was shocked and said:

"Did he secretly conquer Yueyang County?"

"No, everyone thought that King Chu would go to Yueyang County, but King Chu did the opposite and killed Lianyang County by surprise."

He Changwen said puzzledly:

"Even if the King of Chu conquers Lianyang County and can force Lei Yunfei of Yueyang County to surrender directly, there are still three counties that have not yet been conquered. If the King of Chu uses such a move to deal with Wu Zhixiong, not only offending Zhongyi Hall, the Ximen Family and the Lieyan Sect will also be on guard. .”

Liang Wenyu's face became very heavy and he sighed slightly:

"This is why I am puzzled. Will anyone from the three major forces really join the King of Chu?"

The three major forces were giants in Lingzhou. How could they join the King of Chu who didn't even have a palace?

Zhou Qiuya still didn't believe it and said: "According to the investigation, people from Zhongyi Hall bribed hundreds of thousands of gold to let the King of Chu choose Wu Zhixiong to go.

King Chu not only took Wu Zhixiong’s money, but also wanted to intercept and kill him?

Isn’t it too shameless! "

Liang Wenyu glanced at her and said, "Who knows that it was the King of Chu who killed him? We are just guessing. Even if Wu Zhixiong was intercepted and killed, what evidence do we have to prove that it was the King of Chu who killed him? Even people from Zhongyi Hall would think that we killed him. .”

"So what do we do now?"

"Nothing can be done. Even if the King of Chu has spotted us and guessed it, we dare not tell it. Once we reveal the news, if the King of Chu does not kill Wu Zhixiong and lets Wu Zhixiong enter Huiyang County, we will be finished."

Liang Wenyu pondered for a moment and respectfully said to Chu Qingyan: "Second Miss, we will stop attacking the three major forces during this period and conserve our strength first. If the King of Chu really captures Lianyang County, it will definitely trigger a counterattack from the three major forces. Let's see. King Chu will make a decision based on what happens next."

Chu Qingyan frowned, showing helplessness, and said the worst outcome:

"If one of the three major forces really chooses King Chu, which one do you think it is?"

Zhou Qiuya and He Changwen looked at each other and said in unison:

"Fierce Flame Sect!"

"Alas, we will find out soon." Liang Wenyu was helpless. Even though he had seen through King Chu's plan, he was helpless.

"If the King of Chu really captures Lianyang County as we have guessed, and then Fengyang County surrenders to the King of Chu, the neutral Yueyang County will also fall to the King of Chu, and the King of Chu will control the four counties, then he will directly raise troops Are you going to drive us out with suppression?"

Facing the question raised by Zhou Qiuya, Liang Wenyu shook his head and said:

"I hope the King of Chu can raise troops to suppress it. Zhongyitang and the Ximen family will not let the King of Chu manipulate them. In this way, we at least have room to resist. But I am afraid that the King of Chu has other methods. Suppression by force is the lowest method. "

While Chu Qingyan and others were discussing, a carriage from Lianyang County was speeding towards Huiyang County.

There were only three people in the carriage, Wu Zhixiong, Ding Yao, and a guard from the late Grandmaster.

Wu Zhixiong looked up and down at the charming Ding Yao with his small eyes, and a lustful look flashed through his eyes. He put his short and thick hands on Ding Yao's thighs, feeling the delicate and smooth thighs, and praised:

"Niece Ding is indeed smart. She let the convoy walk slowly behind to attract Chu Qingyan's attention. We will take the first step and arrive at Huiyang County quickly. When we arrive at the county town in advance, we can catch Chu Qingyan off guard."

Ding Yao looked at the squat Wu Zhixiong's squinting eyes, suppressed the nausea in her heart, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Governor Wu. Chu Qingyan doesn't dare to bet. Our journey will be safe. We must hurry up and reach Huiyang County in just one day."

"One day, that's quite fast." Wu Zhixiong's tone was a little disappointed.

Ding Yao snorted inwardly. She naturally knew what Wu Zhixiong wanted to do. Why did they go to Huiyang County in only one carriage? Wasn't it because they wanted to go quickly?

Originally, Ding Yao wanted to be safer and let Wu Zhixiong come with the convoy behind. She was 90% sure that Chu Qingyan would not dare to ambush them again.

But Wu Zhixiong's squinting eyes made her feel sick and uncomfortable. She insisted on riding in a carriage. If she waited for a long time, she was afraid that Wu Zhixiong would rape her halfway.

Suddenly, he came up with a plan and asked Wu Zhixiong and himself to rush ahead and head to Huiyang County quickly.

drive!

The furious carriage was racing along the road, kicking up a cloud of dust.

Suddenly Wu Zhixiong and the grandmaster guard felt a strong sense of danger!

The momentum of the two masters exploded!

Wu Zhixiong grabbed Ding Yao and the grandmaster's guard and shot out of the carriage instantly!

Bang!

At the same time, a dazzling golden light flashed, and the carriage exploded instantly!

The terrifying air waves rolled, and Ding Yao, who was in the innate state, was affected by the aftermath. Her chest felt like being hit by a fast running horse, and her internal organs were displaced.

The dust scattered, and a tall and burly figure stood where the carriage had been.

"Yuwen Chengdu!"

Wu Zhixiong, who rushed out of the carriage, squinted his eyes and stared at Yuwen Chengdu who was standing in the middle holding a gold-plated phoenix wing.

"The King of Chu sent you to attack and kill me?"

Wu Zhixiong opened his eyes wide with a hint of disbelief and threw the seriously injured Ding Yao away!

Ding Yao glanced at Yuwen Chengdu, her eyes full of shock, a mouthful of blood spurted in the air, her body hit the tree, and she fell straight down without making any sound.

Yuwen Chengdu's eyes flashed with golden light, his face was solemn, and he was speechless. He waved his gold-plated phoenix wings domineeringly and stabbed Wu Zhixiong with a quick step!

Clang!

A burst of sword intent erupted, and the strong late-stage grandmaster saw Yuwen Chengdu, who was just a mid-stage grandmaster, with a murderous intent in his eyes!

The strong master stood in front of Wu Zhixiong with one step, and stabbed Yuwen Chengdu with the tip of his sword. Before the sword reached him, Yuwen Chengdu could already feel the chill from the tip of the sword.

Yuwen Chengdu's indifferent eyes turned to the late-stage master who was standing in front of him. Yuwen Chengdu, who was holding the phoenix-winged gold-plated boring machine, was glowing with dazzling golden light. The powerful momentum condensed on the phoenix-winged gold-plated boring machine made the wind howl!

A huge golden shadow instantly formed, like a golden shadow, rushing towards the powerful master.

"careful!"

Wu Zhixiong shouted that he knew Yuwen Chengdu next to Li Yuan, and he instantly executed his moves and mixed his strength, covering the two of them in an instant.

Wu Zhixiong didn't need to remind him. The master had already sensed a strong crisis. When he saw Wu Zhixiong covering himself with Gang Qi, he gave up his defense. His whole body's aura exploded, and all his strength was put into the long sword in his hand.

The sword vibrated, bursting with dazzling light, all the strong winds were torn apart, the surrounding trees were cut open by the invisible sword force, and sword marks appeared. The long sword in the dazzling center felt even more indestructible.
