Xiang Shaolong was taken aback and frowned: “I heard the river route is still blockaded by ice and snow, can we still operate the shi+p?”
Lord Longyang assured: “I have already sent soh the roads are still unfit for travelling, since yesterday the river has thawed and boats have begun arriving at Lin Zi fro can put your mind at ease”
Hearing his description, Xiang Shaolong was du to him?
Logically speaking, if Lord Longyang and Han Chuang have joined hands to get rid of him, they should have aborted all their sche that Cao Cuidao has issued a challenge to hi had survived Cao Cuidao’s sword, it is not too late assassinate him
But upon witnessing Lord Longyang’s serious de Shaolong flee away fro fro that cannot be falsified What in the world is going on?
With his friends, Xiang Shaolong is generally straightforward He could not bear it any longer and questioned: “Isn’t Your Lordshi+p concerned about Han Chuang’s blackmail?”
His ‘tender physique’ treyang sta know about this?”
Xiang Shaolong plainly indicated: “So it is true”
After a short spell of silence, Lord Longyang sighed: “Marquis Chuang is forced by circumstances as one of his men leaked this piece of infor has declared your real identity, Guo Kai instantly degenerated into a state of panic and is at a loss, not knohether to proceed or not”
Scrutinizing Lord Longyang’s body language, Xiang Shaolong was curious: “Does Han Chuang knows about our plan to slip away tonight?”
Lord Longyang answered: “Of course he has no idea about it I have sacrificed everything and would never allow Shaolong to perish in the hands of Cao Cuidao I have witnessed one of this old fella’s fights and his sword skills are truly earth shattering and ”
Xiang Shaolong cannot help but put his ar that Your Lordshi+p did not betraywith joy and my exhilaration cannot be expressed in words However, I cannot ie driver to turn back”
Lord Longyang shuddered once and cautioned: “Shaolong need not put up a strong front According toand company did met up with Cao Cuidao in secret and advised him to kill you at all costs; otherwise, Qi will never enjoy days of peace Thus, you must not assume that Cao Cuidao will show any mercy to you”
Xiang Shaolong si of Qi is unable to influence Cao Cuidao Who does that Han Chuang think he is?”
Moly declared: “I know Shaolong is worried aboutAt the end of the day, he has many issues that requires my collaboration and would not dare to act recklessly”
He sighed with another breath: “I a up for him but he is in a difficult position as well His friendshi+p towards Shaolong is genuine”
Right now, Xiang Shaolong is not interested in fleeing anymore He decided: “If I have to leave, I will leave after e bloith him before and this precious Hundred Battle Sabre is what I robbed fro that same encounter Otherwise, hoould I co that fella has betrayed me”
Lord Longyang was incredulous: “You exchanged bloith him before?”
Xiang Shaolong gently persuaded: “Why don’t Your Lordshi+p order the carriage to turn back first? I shall furnish Your Lordshi+p with the details after that!”
When Xiang Shaolong woke up, the sky is barely lighted
Due to the frosty weather and hi his warm and comfortable bed and blankets

Back in Xianyang, he would refuse to lead an army to participate in any battles His only fantasy now is that Xiao Pan’s identity crisis is not as bad as what he ies that this is
Based on Lu Buwei’s intelligence and such an obvious loophole, he cannot always rely on luck
Out of the blue, the sound of noisy quarrelling can be heard from the front courtyard Shortly, a ging his blanket and sitting up on his bed with shock, Shan Rou broke into his roo the front of his shi+rt, she vociferously scolded: “You lazy bu in bed despite knowing that you are facing Master three days later”

The spectators of the fight include the band of fa Fei, her fellow courtesans and their waiting sun Xuanhua and his ten odd followers
Everyone in the crowd suppressed their urge to clap and cheer for fear of earning the wrath of Shan Rou the super shrew
Her beautiful face suddenly thawing, Shan Rou giggled with a ‘Pu Ci’ and laughed: “Kid, you did inificantly I shall let you win this tiainst Master”
Xiang Shaolong is worried that she would leak out the ten strokes proposal and hastily cradled his sabre and paid his respects: “Many thanks for Madauidance!”
The crowd finally dared to cheer
Drawing his personal sword, Zongsun Xuanhua stepped out to the front of Xiang Shaolong and s for sorant some pointers”
Facing this ranked below Cao Cuidao and equal to Dan Chu Qi swords dare not be co his sabre horizontally to protect his front, he smiled: “Brother Xuanhua, after you!”

With a JIANG sound, Xiang Shaolong deflected the bloith his sabre
Reeling frosun Xuanhua is unable to execute his subsequent moveset and was forced to retreat
Xiang Shaolong would not allow his opponent to reco Hundred Battle Sabre once, he advanced and attacked Zongsun Xuanhua like relentless churning of the ocean waves
