第191章 千钧一发

舒羞无奈地叹了口气，不过还是第一时间跟了上去，并非惧怕什么，而是单纯觉得麻烦，不过有这么一个心地善良的姐妹，倒也是件好事。
She quietly took a half step ahead of Pei Nanwei and protected her behind.
Pei Nanwei's voice was not loud, but it was pleasant to listen to. Especially when she uttered those two words to the people who were about to continue throwing stones at the little girl, it sounded particularly harsh.
So they immediately looked towards the direction where the sound came from.
Seeing Pei Nanwei and Shu Xiu, everyone, both male and female, were stunned.
Both of them had top-notch figures and looks, and several young ladies from wealthy families instantly felt jealous in their hearts. As for those dandy gentlemen, they were captivated by their beauty and were completely mesmerized.
For a moment, almost everyone involuntarily overlooked the shabby little girl who had been used to pass the time.
Although the arrogant-looking woman knew that Pei Nanwei's identity was either rich or noble, she was unable to enter Baoguo Temple at the moment. What good would her social status do her then? She was probably on par with Pei Nanwei's background, so what was there to fear?
见同行的那些公子此刻皆是目光痴迷地盯着对方，心中既酸又妒，当即冷笑一声道：“你又算什么东西，以为仗着有几分姿色就能对我等指手画脚？笑话，我便是继续砸你又能如何？”
She bent down and picked up a fist-sized stone and threw it fiercely and quickly at the trembling little girl in the water pool.
Although her strength was not great, the stone was not small, especially for the little girl. Moreover, this time she aimed not at the little girl's chest, but at her head.
With this smash, the little girl was likely to suffer an extremely tragic fate, if not death.
The little girl screamed in shock, but even so, she didn't dare to dodge, just stared with fearful eyes as the stone came hurtling towards her.
"Shameful!" Pei Nanwei exclaimed in disbelief, looking at Shuxiu with pleading eyes.
With such a pitiful appearance, anyone who knows her would feel sorry for her. As a woman herself, Shuxiu couldn't resist the charm of Pei Nanwei.
She gave the arrogant woman a cold glance, lifted her foot and picked up a stone.
With a "whoosh" sound, the stone was split in half by the stone thrown by her in mid-air.
Countless pieces of stones were swept away by a strong force, and in an instant, they flew in the direction where the stones came from.
The next moment, a series of screams sounded, and the few men and women who were previously high up and unbridled were all hit by the stones, all coincidentally landing on their legs.
These young ladies and gentlemen immediately wailed and fell to the ground, covered in dust and extremely embarrassed.
Although these aristocratic children were not as good as those in Baoguo Temple, each of them had one or two guards with a rank of three or four, especially the arrogant woman who had a second-rank small martial artist following her.
Just now, because of unexpected reasons, I didn't help my young master and miss to block the attack. Now, I quickly stood up and protected my young master and miss in front of me, staring at Shu Xiu with anger and vigilance, and drew out my knife, watching Shu Xiu closely.
裴南苇有些担忧地看着舒羞，舒羞察觉到她的目光，丝毫没有在乎那些结成阵的十几名护卫，笑着道：“裴姐姐莫担心，一群不入流的护卫，聚在一起依旧是不流入，无须在意。”
She smiled coquettishly, but her contemptuous and dismissive words filled the guards with anger.
The young lords and ladies also recovered to some extent, although their legs were still in excruciating pain and they couldn't stand up. But they were still the first to shout, "This slut dared to lay a hand on me. Kill her, kill her for me!"
"Take them down for this young lord, I will make them pay!"
“...”
Commands echoed one after another.
The guards glanced at each other, then yelled and rushed towards Shuxiu with their swords.
```json[{"text":"\u003cli\u003eNot far away, the little girl in the pond, seeing this scene, knew it was because of her that the two beautiful sisters got into trouble. She cried out anxiously, \"Don't bully the two sisters, I allowed you to throw, it's okay!\"\u003c/li\u003e"}]```
那些护卫自然不会在意这小女孩说了什么，躺在地上的几个公子小姐更是没工夫理会，倒是舒羞听见了，嘴角不由勾起了一抹柔和的笑意。
面对一个个五大三粗的护卫，以她一品金刚境的修为自然不惧。
简单的一脚，就将冲得最快的那名二品护卫踹得吐血倒地，随后，直接杀进了那些护卫之中。
顿时，便如同虎入羊群，无人能挡下她一拳，一掌，一脚，不过片刻，便躺了一地的护卫。
另一边，裴南苇已经进了水池，不顾湿透的裙摆，也不在乎小女孩脏兮兮的衣服，将那小女孩抱了出来。
舒羞笑呵呵地走过一个个生死不知的护卫，走到方才那一脸骄横如今满脸惊恐的女子身旁，俯下身，捏着那女子的下巴，道：“贱女人？来，跟我说说，谁是贱女人？”
The resentment in the woman's eyes flashed away, and she hung her head, not saying a word.
Hmph, although their family is far from being among the top aristocratic families of the Jiangnan Group, they are only second-rate. She didn't believe that this flirtatious and charming fox would dare to insult her in front of everyone at the gate of the Baoguo Temple!
Her shy eyes still carried a smile, but the smile had no warmth. She had been practicing for a long time, and her greatest strength was her hand-to-hand combat skills.
How dare a brainless noblewoman like her pretend to be tough in front of her?
"What a delicate body," she spoke softly and reached down. There was a cracking sound followed by a series of bone movements.
Suddenly, a miserable scream erupted.
"Ah!"
那女子满脸鼻涕眼泪，只觉自己骨头似乎被一点点地捏成了碎片，惊人的痛苦让她一瞬间几乎失去了意识。
不少被这番动静吸引过来的文人士子，皆是有些不忍，只觉这手段当真太过残暴。
But those guards who fell to the ground were like a big warning sign. Even if they were unhappy and unhappy, they didn't dare to stand up and stop such a brutality as Shuxiu.
One by one, they were silent and just shook their heads and sighed.
Not far away, Pei Nanwei covered the little girl's eyes and held her in his arms, whispering, "Don't look at these."
The little girl held onto Pei Nanwei's clothes carefully with her eyes closed, looking very cute and obedient.
Just then, suddenly, thirteen masked men in black appeared out of nowhere.
The leader of the black-clad men had an astonishing aura, vaguely surpassing that of Shuxiu in the Diamond Realm.
At the moment he appeared, he was like a bolt of lightning, and his sword carried an extremely domineering aura as it slashed towards Pei Nanwei holding the little girl.
This slash was clearly aimed at the life of Pei Nanwei, and the intensity of the murderous intent was truly terrifying.
Shu Xiu was planning to continue her attack on the girl from the prestigious family, but as soon as she sensed the presence of this aura, she flew towards Pei Nanwei.
However, the other twelve black-clad people intercepted her.
这十二名黑衣人皆是二品，并且似乎受过特殊的训练，动静之间形成了一道玄妙的阵法。
舒羞被大阵一围竟也是进退不得，甚至有些举步维艰的迹象。
With a single slap, Shu Xiu drove away one of the black-clad men, her eyes filled with anger and anxiety as she looked towards Pei Nanwei. She shouted angrily, "She is the daughter of the King of Qingcheng. If you dare to touch her, you will be doomed."
At this point, she can only hope that Xu Chuan's infamous reputation can intimidate the other party, but deep down she is not optimistic because it is evident that they came prepared and knew the identities of herself and Pei Nanwei.
The leader of the black-clothed men sneered, his voice hoarse: "Kill the woman of the Qingcheng King."
He held a knife in his left hand, and his knife skills were tricky and unpredictable. Even if it were someone in the ordinary realm, they may not be able to withstand it, let alone someone like Pei Nanwei, who was powerless.
刀法之精，竟丝毫不在那湖底老魁楚狂奴之下。
刀势笼罩之下，裴南苇脸色发白，但一向觉得自己怕死的她，此刻竟好似没有了太多的恐惧，唯独剩下的只有不舍。
```htmlShe pushed the little girl behind her and exerted all her strength to run forward.
She only hoped not to involve innocent lives because of herself.
The leader of the black-clothed men was indifferent, his hand wielding the knife without any fluctuation, but there was a special perverse pleasure in his eyes.```
似乎隐隐是一种大仇得报却又未尽的感觉。
...
龙虎山，赵黄巢和黄龙士于一处深潭前对弈。
黄龙士澹澹道：“龙虎山气运腰斩，离阳皇朝也是风雨飘摇，看样子你是着急了，你觉得袁庭山有机会成功吗？”
赵黄巢眼神阴厉道：“此子必须死，他不死，我离阳必乱，不论袁庭山能否成功，他经过龙虎山的时候，便是他的死期！”
黄龙士微讶道：“哦？你倒是底气十足，但据我所知，倘若袁庭山失败，没有在对方的心灵中留下破绽，你的大梦春秋怕是也入不了他的梦吧。”
赵黄巢嘿地笑了一声，道：“有些事，不可说。”他说着，抬头看了一眼湛蓝如洗的天空。
黄龙士心头震动，眼神闪动，默然不语。
Zhao Huangchao glanced at Huang Longshidao and said, "It's you, the prestigious spring and autumn Huang Sanjia. You are afraid of a younger generation and dare not show up in front of him. You are truly regressing as you grow older."
黄龙士不以为意地笑了笑道：“下棋最重要的是不是布局和落子，而是身为执棋之人，绝不能轻易下场，赵宣素和那韩貂寺已经用自己命证明了一点。”
He looked at Zhao Huangchao and said, "You seem to be quite fond of Yuan Tingshan. You not only personally taught him the left-handed knife and trained him step by step into a Finger Mystic in two years, but also took a few ancient seal script characters from the secret library of Longhu Mountain and gave them to him. I heard that the Red Armored General was apparently studied through those characters, and Longhu Mountain now only retains the last set. It's really a pity."
Zhao Huangchao had a child and calmly said, "I can't bear to let my child fall into the wolf's trap. If I don't give him something to protect himself, do you think Yuan Tingshan is willing to sacrifice his life for me? This child is also not easy to deal with."
黄龙士摇了摇头，目光里在密密麻麻的棋盘上，一子落下，他呵呵一笑道：“看来这一局又是我赢了。”
...
前一刻钟，黑衣人出现之前，报国寺内，流觞曲水，百人争辩，三百余人观战，可谓热闹非凡。
At this moment, Xu Chuan heard Yuan Honghu say that the prosperous era of ancient times was the true kingly way, while the current era of the dynasty's prosperity was merely a declining era of power. He believed that people were overly focused on achievements, which should not be encouraged, or great disaster would ensue.
He cannot agree with this, as the pursuit of self-interest has always existed in all ages. There is no reason to remain stagnant and not strive for progress.
Moreover, to be honest, the smarter a person is, the more they weigh the pros and cons of their actions and calculate their gains and losses, and the more fiercely they compete.
Lost in thought, he didn't know when the curved water and wine cups arrived before him.
As he reached out to take the wine from the beautiful maid, he suddenly felt a stir in his heart, and instinctively activated his Taihao Cangyuan Tong. Under the shining light of the glass, a myriad of energy fluctuations filled his sight.
Following a mysterious intuition, he looked towards the outside of Bao Guo Temple, where there were two auras he was very familiar with.
And one of them was shrouded in black, with an omen of death emerging!
It's Pei Nanwei!
How could it be? Who dared to kill her?
Upon seeing this, how could he still have the mood to drink and debate?
Under the gaze of hundreds of famous scholars and more than three hundred onlookers, he casually threw down the drink in his hand, drew his sword from its scabbard in his chest, and rode his sword into the sky.
瓷制的酒杯砸在地上碎成无数碎片，酒水洒落一地，瞬间令无数人哗然。
“他怎敢如此？”
“就算他是青城王，这等行径也太过了！”
“Such a grand event has been underestimated in such a way!”
“Extremely rude, indeed, even if he were crowned king, he could not change his coarse martial nature!"
“...”
Countless people condemned Xu Chuan, of course, some admired his swordsmanship unparalleled.
In the crowd, Xu Fengnian looked strange. According to his understanding, although Xu Chuan was domineering, he wouldn't make such an outrageous move unless something happened that forced him to rush over immediately.
Is there really someone looking to die?
Xu Fengnian sighed in his heart. He thought that after the battle in the reed marshes, there shouldn't be anyone foolish enough to come and seek death, but he didn't expect that it would only take such a short time for something to happen again.
此刻，他也懒得混在这了，拉着那书生起来，便去寻徐脂虎和魏叔阳等人。
...
同一时间，报国寺外，那黑衣人首领的刀锋距离裴南苇只有不足两尺的距离。
Almost everyone felt that in the next moment, this peerless beauty would perish here.
Many onlookers were a little regretful, truly a case of beauty destined for tragedy.
而大多数世家小姐则心头莫名暗喜，这么美的女子本就不该出现在这世上，赶紧死了才好。
就在这时，一声惊怒地喝声从天际而来。
"How dare you!"
便见天穹之上，有一道白衣身影脚踏飞剑以一种不可思议的速度飞速落下。
但，按照目前的速度，根本阻止不了即将发生的一切。
As death approached, Pei Nanwei looked at the urgent figure coming from the horizon, a satisfied smile appearing on her beautiful face. This smile was incredibly moving and beautiful, like a snow lotus blooming on an iceberg, unattainable.
见到这一幕，哪怕那黑衣人首领冷漠的目光也不禁微微一颤，当然，这也丝毫不影响他这一刀的决绝和狠辣。
眼角余光看着天际而来的那道身影，他心中狠厉道：“你夺走我的东西，我会一样一样的都拿回来，今天就先收个利息！”
A sharp whistle sounded and in the next moment, the blade came crashing down!
