Chapter 233: Fighting in the Palace

The atmosphere in the palace was very tense.

Master Yongyang's eyes flashed, and he weighed it in his mind. He didn't know how true or exaggerated this man's rumored abilities were. He also didn't know how determined this man was at the moment, and he couldn't make up his mind at the moment.

But the middle-aged Taoists below were all staring at Song You and the swordsman. The swordsman also held the sword in one hand and put it flat on the table. Even though he was facing the Xuanmen, he had no fear in his heart.

During the fight, he was more calm than the Taoists and looked at them calmly.

Even the calico cats have serious faces.

Only the young Taoist remained calm and composed.

At this moment, the light at the door dimmed slightly, but two little boys, a man and a woman, came in carrying trays.

The two of them didn't understand what happened in the palace. Although they felt the silence on both sides was a bit strange, they didn't dare to ask more questions. They just walked in with small steps carrying the tray, and carefully placed the items on the tray next to each other.

Looking at everyone's desk, it seems that they are used to this kind of trepidation.

The boy presented a plate of snacks. There were two kinds of snacks, each in red and green. I don’t know what flavor they were. They had beautiful patterns on them, and they were arranged in a staggered pattern. They were very delicate.

What the girl presented was a plate of fire crystal persimmons, with only three per plate, and a small bamboo tube placed next to it to absorb the juice.

Song You lowered his head and glanced down, and couldn't help but say: "Now that Hezhou is in chaos and people's livelihood is difficult, all the Taoist priests are enjoying their lives in this temple."

In a hurry, you may be able to pick persimmons and obtain bamboo tubes, but these snacks must have been prepared long ago. Not only must they be prepared long ago, but looking at the level of sophistication, it is not something ordinary people can make.

"Fellow Taoist is here to visit us. We treat you as a distinguished guest and we treat you as a distinguished guest. Why are you so rude?" Master Yongyang raised his eyebrows, but he also controlled his anger.

"It's not that I'm rude, but in fact, although you try your best to hide it, you are full of ghosts and evil spirits, which can't be faked. The Tao you practice has the same root and origin as the Lei Qing Guan Demon Tao, and you really don't know it until now.

How many lives have been lost cannot be covered up by the courtesy of honored guests." Song You shook his head and said to them, "I will be walking around Hezhou this time to slay demons and evil spirits. It's okay if I haven't met you. Since I have met you all,

, if we leave here, how can our thoughts be accessed?"

"..."

Everyone immediately understood that it would be useless to talk more.

Only a middle-aged Taoist stared at Song You and asked, "How is Senior Brother Fangzi doing now?"

"died."

"..."

The two boys and girls who were already frightened heard what they said, and then they reacted and became even more frightened. Their faces were pale, their bodies were trembling, and the hands holding the trays were also trembling as they struggled to hold on to the last plate of dim sum and persimmons.

He placed it on the table of the Taoist priest sitting at the end, then stood up and walked away.

I just felt that at this moment, the gazes of both parties seemed to have substance, turning into lines that would die if touched, intersecting in the air, and I had to walk through them.

Song You was not in a hurry, and neither was the swordsman.

The two of them were waiting for the Taoist boy to leave.

The calico cat also stood in front of Song You, standing only on its hind legs and holding the table with its two front paws. It faced several middle-aged Taoists, its smart eyes moving around, not knowing what it was thinking.

Just hear a clap.

"Bang!"

But it was the middle-aged Taoist priest who had just asked Song You how the master of Lei Qing Temple was doing, regardless of the two Taoist boys who had not yet left, or was about to take advantage of the two Taoist boys who had not left yet, and raised his hand to slap the table.

Suddenly the air in the palace seemed to be distorted.

A thick circle of black mist exploded from the table and dispersed into the air in an instant.

"call!"

All I could hear for a while was the howling of ghosts and wolves.

More than ten ghost figures emerged from the black mist.

Some of the ghosts are as skinny as wood, but have extremely long fingers and sharp nails. Some have long hair and fangs, and some look like yakshas. There are old and young, male and female, and they speak slowly.

, in fact, it only took an instant to emerge from the black mist, screaming and twisting towards Song You.

If it were an ordinary person, I might not be able to react in time.

I saw the Sanhua Empress in front of Song You, her eyes narrowed, her pupils shrank, her eyes reflected the slow motion of these ghostly figures, and then she jumped on the table with all her strength. If she slowed down, it would be very graceful.

The calico cat took a breath, opened its mouth and spit it out.

All reactions are only instantaneous.

"Canopy!"

A blazing flame exploded.

The light in the hall, which had already dimmed, was suddenly illuminated by the firelight, and everyone's faces were also illuminated brightly. It felt like the hot wind was almost hitting their faces and blowing their robes.

Both flame and yang energy are the most powerful against yin ghosts. Sanhua Empress is a yin and yang fellow cultivator. She has both yin and yang spiritual powers, and she specializes in fire magic. Now the two are superimposed. What's the big deal?

Among the more than ten ghosts, the two weakest ones were burned to ashes almost instantly. The remaining four or five jumped forward for more than a foot and were slowly burned to ashes. The remaining half were

They survived, but they were all burned by the flames and screamed in pain. They quickly turned around and retreated faster than when they came.

"ah?"

The middle-aged Taoist was immediately shocked.

Almost at the same time——

"laugh!"

The sword of the swordsman beside him has been unsheathed, and the sword is covered with frost. The light is shining brightly, white, and deep and cold. The light is obviously dimming, but it seems to be dazzling everyone in the palace.

Another middle-aged Taoist stood up from the table and waved his sleeves.

"brush!"

A gust of black wind struck the swordsman.

The swordsman dodged with his sword, and with great agility, the black wind immediately hit the table and futon where he was sitting.

"Chichi..."

The sound was like watery vegetables being dropped into a frying pan.

The swordsman glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw that most of the futon he was sitting on was gone. The solid wood table could barely see its original appearance, but it was also covered with dense white bubbles that were being rapidly melted.

"Snapped!"

Another middle-aged Taoist grabbed the plate on the table in front of him, slapped it on the table, and immediately smashed it into pieces. Then the Taoist waved his hand, and all the pieces flew forward.

That astonishing speed may not even be possible by the best concealed weapon masters in the world.

But I saw the swordsman dancing with his sword.

"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."

The long sword reflected the light of snow and formed a single piece, as if even water could not be poured into it.

All the fragments were opened by the long sword, or turned into powder on the spot, or cracked and spattered, hitting the pillars next to them, and were embedded in them. They were not embedded deeply, but they could not fall off.

"..."

The swordsman did not split the last piece, but drew it sideways with his sword.

"Snapped……"

The fragment flew towards the middle-aged Taoist in front.

"!"

The middle-aged Taoist's eyes suddenly widened, and he wanted to hide, but he was not a knight-errant. Even if he knew some Taoism, how could he hide?

Just hear a muffled bang!

Hit the body firmly.

Anyway, he was wearing a Taoist robe, so there were no wounds visible. He just screamed, his face twisted in pain, and he covered his abdomen with his hands. After a while, the Taoist robe was slowly soaked red with blood.

When he realized it, the swordsman was already in front of him.

"laugh!"

The long sword swept across, and the sword light was as white as snow and as bright as electricity.

Encounters in rivers and lakes, encounters on narrow roads, even those who practice Taoism, as long as they are still mortal bodies and have no other ability to save their lives, how many people dare to say that they can survive under Shu Yifan's sword?

"puff!!"

With just one stroke of the sword, two people were choked.

The Taoist who struck the case and summoned the ghost, and the Taoist who shot the broken disk at the swordsman, caused blood to spurt out from his neck.

The two Taoists really thought they were invulnerable.

It's just that the knife is not fast enough and the force is not strong enough.

Only another middle-aged Taoist was clever and cautious, and was originally calculated by the swordsman to be included in the sweep range of the long sword. However, this Taoist took out a black cloth from his arms in advance and covered himself with the long sword in the swordsman's hand.

There was no obstruction when it was swept, as if it had cut through the layer of black cloth and the Taoist under the black cloth, and it seemed that it had only cut through the air without cutting anything.
