Chapter 239 The tacit understanding between the two people
The two armies faced each other, Baili Haoxuan observed the man in white with a complicated expression. Gu Yue let him keep looking at her, still calm and extraordinary. The spotless thin white clothes fluttered in the wind and blended with the white snow.
A quarter of an hour passed, two quarters of an hour, three quarters of an hour passed...
The two armies were still facing each other. The soldiers on both sides were confused and were waiting for the order to attack, but they waited for a long time and still didn't get it.
Half an hour passed, and there was still no movement. It was so quiet that even the breathing could be heard clearly. Yan Zinuo, who was beside Baili Haoxuan, also moved slightly. He glanced at Baili Haoxuan, still calm and composed. He kept signaling Baili Haoxuan with his eyes.
However, Baili Haoxuan didn't even glance at Yan Zinuo, his blue eyes were always staring at the man in white.
He still remembered the first time he saw him in white clothes, he looked at him in the same way, and he let him look at him at will.
At that time, he came to treat Sang Yuhanyan. He was a strange man, who appeared in his bedroom at night, but he intuitively knew that the man in white was not someone who would hurt him.
The two had never met before, but they could understand each other tacitly without saying anything. This feeling was very wonderful. Just like now, they all knew that they were actually waiting. Baili Haoxuan was waiting for the person behind the man, because he intuitively believed that the man in white was not the person behind him.
And the man in white seemed to have agreed to his wish.
"Yue'er, what are you waiting for?" Suddenly, in the silent imperial city, a hoarse and unpleasant voice like sawing wood, which was indistinguishable between male and female, was heard. It came from behind the army of men in white.
Baili Haoxuan narrowed his blue eyes, shifting his gaze from the man in white to the back of the army. He saw four people in the army carrying a sedan chair with a thin white gauze hanging on it slowly approaching.
Under the thin white veil, there was only a person sitting inside, wearing a black cloak and covering himself tightly. It was impossible to see his face, figure, or whether he was a man or a woman.
It turns out that this androgynous person is the person behind the scenes!!!
"Greetings to the Palace Master." The people in the front of the army and the men in white all saluted the sedan chair respectfully and fearfully.
"Palace Master?" Baili Haoxuan chewed on these two words, a sinister gleam flashing across his blue eyes.
"This must be the Palace Master of Fanli Palace." Yan Zinuo said to Baili Haoxuan with understanding.
Baili Haoxuan nodded slightly.
It turns out that the one who had been against him and constantly sent people to assassinate him was the master of the Fanli Palace of this Jianghu sect. But how did he become enemies with the Fanli Palace? ? ?
The sedan chair stopped next to Gu Yue, "Yue'er, why don't you do anything?" The unpleasant sound like sawing wood sounded again.
Baili Haoxuan frowned. Who is this person?
Gu Yue sat under the sedan chair, lowered her head slightly, and said nothing.
"What's the matter, Yue'er, do you want to go back on your word?" The sound of sawing wood contained a hint of sharp threat.
If he could find a way to have the best of both worlds, he really wanted to go back on his word. Although the Palace Master was the one who raised him, he didn't want to kill that person...
"It seems that Yue'er can't make up her mind. This palace master will help Yue'er. Someone, bring that girl up!"
Gu Yue raised her eyes to look at the Palace Master, a trace of panic flashing across her eyes.
Baili Haoxuan on the city wall listened to their conversation one by one. When he heard the three words "that girl", his heart started beating wildly. He instinctively felt that this person was Sang Yu Hanyan!
From the back of the army, two women wearing black veils were carrying a petite, weak, and limp, beautiful woman, and they slowly came...
Baili Haoxuan's heart skipped a beat. It was indeed her!
"What on earth do you want!" Baili Haoxuan roared angrily. His woman was actually kidnapped.
"I want you to have a one-on-one duel with Yue'er. This request is very simple."
"Do you want to fight him and then you will return her to me?"
"Let's see if you'll live to get her back in the end. Hahaha..." The unpleasant sound of sawing wood echoed in the imperial city, harsh and uncomfortable.
Baili Haoxuan clenched his fists tightly, his knuckles turned white, and there was a "crackling" sound. Baili Haoxuan glared at the palace master.
"Who are you?" The blue eyes froze into a layer of ice and shot coldly at the palace master, asking coldly.
"This palace master only wants to know whether Emperor Xuanhui's martial arts are better or this palace master's Yue'er's martial arts are better. This palace master came here today to watch the show. With life and death as the stakes, the winner can take this girl away. If it's a tie, then this girl will die!"
Baili Haoxuan and Gu Yue's hearts trembled at the same time. An inexplicable feeling of panic and sadness spread in their hearts. They looked at each other at the same time.
With just this one glance, both of them were stunned for a moment.
The two seemed to know what the other was thinking...
The two people staring at each other in silence made the Palace Master of Fanli Palace very dissatisfied, and he spoke again: "It seems that Emperor Xuanhui and Yue'er don't want to fight anymore, right? A draw?" There was a strong threat in his voice.
The Lord of Fanli Palace knew what this woman meant to them. He could easily threaten these two people and achieve his goal without any effort.
"Wait!" Baili Haoxuan stopped him in a stern voice, his sharp eyes seemed to pierce through the thin white gauze and looked at the man clearly, wanting to tear him apart and kill him.
She actually dared to threaten him! But, damn it, he actually accepted her threats. Because, that woman, so...
"Has Emperor Xuanhui thought it through? Does he want a fight or a draw?" Even from the sound of sawing wood, one could hear the sinisterness in his words.
"Oh, since the Palace Master of Fanli Palace has such a refined taste. How can I not accept your wish!" Baili Haoxuan's blue eyes were cold, his face was expressionless, and his hand raised the sword at his waist.
"Your Majesty! You absolutely cannot do that." Yan Zinuo knew that Baili Haoxuan was going to go down and compete with the man with the butterfly mask, so he hurriedly stopped him with a stern voice.
"Zinuo," Baili Haoxuan signaled with his eyes, conveying a message to Yan Zinuo.
Baili Haoxuan turned around and floated down, quickly landing on the ground from the high city wall. He walked forward quickly, pointing his cold sword directly at Gu Yue, intending to declare war.
"Emperor Xuanhui is indeed straightforward." The Palace Master of Fanli Palace said this with ambiguous meaning.
Even if Gu Yue was unwilling, she had to raise her cold sword and face Baili Haoxuan.
Baili Haoxuan was filled with murderous aura, but Gu Yue remained calm and composed. The Palace Master of Fanli Palace, who was watching coldly from the side, was very satisfied.
"Bang" the two swords collided, the swords flashed with a cold light, and the two people pointed their swords at each other. When their eyes met, Baili Haoxuan suddenly leaped and turned quickly to the opposite direction, and his figure quickly came between the two black-clothed and masked women.
He quickly snatched Sang Yu Hanyan from the two men's hands. Gu Yue was not surprised at all, because when the two of them looked at each other, they had already understood this tacitly.
The Palace Master of Fanli Palace was stunned. When did this kid's martial arts become so superb that he could even snatch someone away right under his nose!
After Baili Haoxuan snatched the person from the Palace Master of Fanli Palace, he handed her to Hun who was following behind him, and signaled with his eyes that Hun should take Sang Yu Hanyan to a safe place.
Baili Haoxuan, who rescued Sang Yuhanyan, did not leave, but stood facing the Palace Master of Fanli Palace. He vowed to solve all the problems today, once and for all.
He also had to know who this mysterious Lord of Fanli Palace was and what deep hatred he had for him, so he could force him to surrender step by step.
"Oh? You rescued the people but didn't leave?" The Palace Master of Fanli Palace was originally furious, but when he saw Baili Haoxuan standing here, he smiled a little.
"Things must be resolved. Tell me! Who are you? What grudge do you have against me? Why do you keep pressing me and are determined to kill me?" Baili Haoxuan shouted with a cold face.
"Do you want to know? Just challenge Yue'er to a life-and-death contest. If you win, I will tell you everything. How about it? Hahaha..." The sharp and vicious sound of sawing wood sounded again.
"Why do you insist that I compete with him? Can't I compete with you?" Baili Haoxuan quickly thought of the key point of the problem. Since the appearance of this Palace Master, the Palace Master has been making constant demands, even threatening Sang Yu Hanyan's life, just for him to compete with the man in white. There must be something behind this...
