Chapter 66: 'Dongfeng' is not with Gu Lang... a rehearsed assassination!
Having said that, Gu Jingzhi turned and walked outside.
He was completely certain that Xiao Li had no sincerity in the negotiations and just wanted to take the opportunity to stabilize Da Xia or even drag Da Xia into the war. At that time, not only would he not have to fulfill the contents of the negotiations between the two parties, but he could also take the opportunity to weaken Da Xia.
Seeing that Gu Jingzhi had no interest in continuing the conversation, Xiao Li's eyes flashed with a dark and gloomy look, and then he followed him out.
"Master Gu, the three-day deadline is about to pass. If nothing is achieved within these three days, Beili will be expelled from Daxia. At that time, there will be no need for me to discuss this further!"
"Oh?"
The two of them walked and chatted.
Hearing Xiao Li's somewhat threatening words, Gu Jingzhi smiled slightly. "I am also very curious. Since Prince Xiao is so sure that Bei Li will be expelled, then what do you want to talk to me about today?"
"Or maybe, Prince Xiao never intended to discuss anything and was just doing it for Bei Li to see?"
Gu Jingzhi glanced at Xiao Li meaningfully, and said with deep meaning, "Prince Xiao, for my Great Xia, it is not necessary to form an alliance with anyone. In fact, sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight each other is a good thing!"
"Really? But the Great Xia court doesn't seem to agree with what Lord Gu is doing, right?"
"So, when you let him in, Prince Xiao doesn't intend to have a good discussion, right?"
"If I don't talk to him properly, it seems that Lord Gu can't do anything to me, right?"
Xiao Li looked at Gu Jingzhi with a pair of playful eyes. Gu Jingzhi stared at him coldly for a long time... He suddenly smiled: "In that case, then let's..."
He was halfway through his words when suddenly a sword flashed before his eyes. Gu Jingzhi's face changed and he subconsciously grabbed Xiao Li's shoulders and pulled him back.
Suddenly, a man wearing a black cloak appeared in front of them.
After missing the first attack, the man raised his sword and stabbed towards Xiao Li. Gu Jingzhi narrowed his eyes, took two quick steps forward, and clenched his hand into a knife to chop the cloaked man's wrist. The cloaked man held the sword in one hand and slashed with his backhand.
Gu Jingzhi stomped his foot on the ground, and his legs left the ground in an instant, narrowly avoiding the enemy's sword. Taking advantage of this moment, he punched the cloaked man.
The cloaked man made a palm with his left hand to meet Gu Jingzhi's fist.
"boom!"
When the fists and palms collided, a dull sound of air explosion was heard.
Gu Jingzhi fell to the ground and the man in black took two steps back.
"I never thought that a mere civil servant from Da Xia would have such excellent martial arts. He is truly a hidden talent..." The cloaked man said in a hoarse voice.
Gu Jingzhi didn't say anything, but stared at the cloaked man with his eyes.
Even though he seemed to have the upper hand just now, the cloaked man's martial arts were all in weapons, while Gu Jingzhi's traditional Chinese martial arts were mainly focused on boxing and kicking, and the man in black must have underestimated his opponent.
Gu Jingzhi turned around and glanced at Xiao Li: "Prince Xiao, is it possible that your inn doesn't even have guards?"
After two rounds of fighting, Xiao Li stood aside as if nothing had happened. When Gu Jingzhi mentioned it, he pretended to suddenly realize something and shouted, "There's an assassin..."
When he shouted, his voice could be heard from far away. The cloaked man snorted coldly and stabbed at Gu Jingzhi with another sword.
After the tentative contest just now, Gu Jingzhi was calm and fearless, showing a sense of courage and skill.
The two men fought several times in just a few breaths.
Although the cloaked man was an expert swordsman, Gu Jingzhi kept close to him, using both punches and kicks, which prevented him from effectively using his best sword skills.
Soon, the guards from the delegation surrounded them. Xiao Li pointed at the cloaked man and said, "Quick, capture this assassin!"
"Crash!"
A group of guards immediately surrounded them. The cloaked man and Gu Jingzhi exchanged punches again, and the two sides again kept some distance between them. Then the enemy's sword flew up and down, and soon he chopped down several guards of the delegation.
Gu Jingzhi frowned.
After these guards joined the battle, they directly separated him from the cloaked man, which gave the enemy room to display his swordsmanship, making Gu Jingzhi somewhat restrained.
While Gu Jingzhi was fighting with the enemy, he kept observing Xiao Li with the corner of his eyes. He immediately discovered that although Xiao Li had been commanding the guards, there was no sign of interaction in his eyes.
He frowned slightly.
At this moment, two black shadows rushed in, both holding swords and stabbing at Xiao Li.
In just two breaths, all the guards guarding Xiao Li were killed by the two men. Then they rushed towards Xiao Li with swords and knives. Seeing this, Xiao Li... he no longer had the calm expression he had before, and his eyes showed fear.
"Humph!"
Gu Jingzhi snorted coldly, moved his feet a few times, and came directly in front of Xiao Li. He kicked the man wielding the knife directly on the wrist.
"uh-huh!"
The man in black groaned and the long sword fell out of his hand.
Gu Jingzhi was slightly startled when he heard the muffled groan. It was actually a woman. But he didn't have time to think about it. He just raised his right hand and grabbed the long sword that he had kicked away and instantly fell into his hand. Before he could even land on the ground, he kicked out with another foot, directly kicking the woman in the shoulder.
At the same time, he swung the long sword in his hand upwards and directly cut off the other man's sword.
"thump!"
The woman fell to the ground and slid several meters away.
Seeing that the assassination failed, the man in black with the sword looked at Gu Jingzhi hatefully, then quickly jumped up, helped the woman up and left.
This scene happened in just a few breaths. Seeing Gu Jingzhi take care of the enemy in just a few moves, Xiao Li looked at him stupidly, as if he had seen a ghost.
Gu Jingzhi had no time to pay attention to him at the moment. During this time, several more of Xiao Li's guards fell under the sword of the cloaked man. Gu Jingzhi now had a weapon in his hand and was no longer as restrained as before.
He shouted directly: "All of you go aside, I will meet him!"
As he spoke, he trotted a few steps with his long sword in hand, then leaped up and slashed heavily at the cloaked man with the long sword.
The cloaked man blocked with his sword, and the blow hit the sword heavily.
"Keng!"
The cloaked man took a few steps back again. Gu Jingzhi flexed his wrist and looked at him: "You're quite skilled! Then take a few more of my moves..."
As he spoke, he came forward again with the knife.
Xiao Li was a little dumbfounded when he saw Gu Jingzhi becoming more and more courageous as the battle went on.
This was a scene he had arranged to frame Bei Li. He performed it in front of Gu Jingzhi to make it seem more realistic.
But no matter how much he planned, he didn't expect that Gu Jingzhi actually knew martial arts, and judging by his skills, he was on par with the cloaked man.
Others don't know the cloaked man's background, but he knows it very well.
However, the cloaked man had been practicing for decades, but what about Gu Jingzhi? He wasn't even twenty-one at the most. Are all the civil servants in Daxia so perverted?
