Upon hearing Wang Jiwei, Zhao had already guessed Cheng Jing's intention. He winked at Li Yizhen and asked Li Yizhen to find an opportunity to run away.

"You are the most talented disciple in Qingcheng Mountain in the past hundred years. Who doesn't know who?" Zhao evaded the important and ignored the trivial, saying all the words that were useless in order to delay time and find an opportunity for Li Yizhen.

"Hehe, hehe."

"Young friend, you are pretending to be confused because you understand. Since you like to talk in circles, let me tell you straight away. You must give me an explanation for killing my disciple, right?"

Cheng Jing still looked calm and calm, but his tone was no longer gentle as before, and even a bit tough.

Zhao pretended to be innocent, shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Taoist priest is really good at joking. I have no grievances with Taoist priest Wang, so why should I kill him? Taoist priest, is Qingcheng Mountain so overbearing that you can stop the Jin Yiwei just by questioning him?" Besides, this Jin Yiwei is still on a business trip!"

With that said, Zhao pulled off his waist badge and held it up so that Cheng Jing could see clearly.

"Sharp-tongued!" Cheng Jing said with a smile. It didn't matter whether Zhao was slippery or not. He was also very good at labeling him, and always talked about the imperial government's official duties, as if Cheng Jing's obstruction for a while would delay military and national affairs.

"Thank you, Taoist Master, for the compliment!" Zhao calmly put away his badge and said loudly.

Even though Chengjing had cultivated his mind and character for decades and had a profound Taoist teaching and a very good temper, he couldn't help but sneer when he heard this. Zhao just bit Chengjing to death without any evidence.

"You dare to speak arrogantly in front of me if you kill my disciple. The only principle in the world is to kill someone to pay for your life! Not to mention suing Mr. Lu, even suing the emperor is an expert. I have a reason! Since I am their master, I will do whatever they say. Seek justice for the death of Ji Wei and my two disciples!”

After Zhao heard what Cheng Jing said, he smiled instead of feeling sad. He looked at Cheng Jing like a mocker and said, "What?" Oh, this is the person Lu Wenyu asked me to kill. If you have the guts, go and complain to Lu Wenyu!

"Hahaha, the Taoist priest is right!"

"Then please ask the Taoist priest to come to Beijing with me, go in front of Mr. Lu and the emperor, and ask the emperor and Mr. Lu to make a decision. If it was me who killed him, Zhao would not say a word and would commit suicide on the spot to apologize to Taoist priest Wang!"

Listening to Zhao Jieyi's stern words, Chengjing's heart was filled with ten thousand grass and mud horses, "Mother Qianlin!" The capital is your territory, and Lu Wenyu is your boss, so what the hell are you doing? When I arrived in the capital, I had no idea whether I could make it out alive. Are you really treating me like a child?

"There is no need to go to the capital. As long as I go to Qingcheng Mountain as a guest with me for a few days, Qingcheng Mountain will find out the truth and restore my innocence!"

Zhao sneered. What's the difference between your rhetoric and my "going to the capital"? It’s just that the capital is my territory and Qingcheng Mountain is your territory.

"Does the Taoist want to set up a private court? I wonder if the Taoist still has the emperor in his eyes, and if he has Da Qilu? How dare you have such a rebellious idea!"

No matter what you say, Zhao's main focus is to refuse to admit his fault, slap others on his side, and make things bigger. Anyway, Zhao obviously has an official status and has reasonable reasons. He has a big advantage in name. How can he not use the tiger skin as a banner at this time?

Cheng Jing was speechless by Zhao Ji, and it was hard for him to say anything. If Zhao Ji caught him, he and Qingcheng Mountain would suffer in the future. He simply didn't speak and stared at Zhao Jiu quietly, determined not to let Zhao go and leave.

Of course Zhao would not tolerate him. He reined in the horse, waved his hand towards Li Yizhen, turned around and wanted to leave. If you have the guts, stop him. I just want to test if Cheng Jing dares to kill the young marquis.

The horse stopped immediately after taking a few steps, and the raised hoof could not fall down. Of course, Zhao understood that it was Cheng Jing's Qi behind him. Fortunately, when he turned his head, he was already prepared and released his true Qi to resist Cheng Jing's Qi.

"What? Does the Taoist priest really want to take action against the imperial official?"

A few steps away, Cheng Jing closed his eyes and even had the time to sit down. He didn't answer Zhao Jiu's words, he just looked at Zhao Jiu with a smile, his anger was like a mountain, and his main goal was not to let you go without taking action.

Zhao, who continued to increase the amount of his true energy released, understood Chengjing's idea, and wanted to rely on his high level to keep Zhao's true energy alive. How could Zhao Jiu let him get his wish? After his true energy spread over an area, he shouted at Li Yizhen who was standing there, "Let's go!"

"Walk!"

The loud sound instantly brought Li Yizhen back to her senses. She no longer felt like she was being suppressed. After shouting "Take care", she hit her horse and ran forward.

Li Yizhen is not among Cheng Jing's targets, so he will naturally not be in trouble. Besides, if you stop one of them, you can ask them to come to Qingcheng Mountain as a guest. If you stop them all, you just want to make the emperor look bad. You must know that the two of them are still on official business.

The sound of horse hooves gradually faded away, leaving Cheng Jing sitting and Zhao Jiu on horseback. The two of them watched Li Yizhen leave and made no other moves. One external air release machine suppressed the other, while the other side released its true energy to resist the air machine. There was a stalemate for a while. Both sides have their own concerns, so it is still a trial period.

Time gradually passed, and soon the sun went down and the sky slowly darkened. The two of them sat together for more than an hour, the atmosphere was tense, and neither of them had good expressions on their faces. Only Zhao was eating the horse slowly on his crotch, looking contented.

When the sky turned completely dark and the surroundings fell into silence, Zhao Jiu showed a smile on his face. This was the time he had been waiting for. For more than an hour, Zhao sat on the horse and secretly took Tongxuan Pills in order to maintain a certain amount of Qi so that he could better implement his plan.

The earlier use of Qi didn't have much effect, Zhao Jue was relaxed, Cheng Jing decisively switched to releasing Qi, and forced Zhao Jue to suppress him with his realm, which put Zhao Jue under great pressure. After such a long time, Zhao Jue estimated that his Qi had been consumed, and he couldn't help but relax a little.

And Zhao Jue took the opportunity when Cheng Jing was slightly relaxed. The Qi that had been condensed for a long time suddenly rushed out, and the hand holding the knife suddenly exerted force, pouring 80% of his Qi into one move.

"Ask the sky!"

Drawing the knife out of the sheath, he swung a knife at Cheng Jing behind him. Although he was suppressed by Cheng Jing, the communication between the world and the world was almost broken, and he couldn't feel the situation of the world at all, but with 80% of his Qi poured into his body, this knife was still extremely bright, and it could almost be said that it was a knife with all his strength.

The knife light rushed towards Cheng Jing, like a crescent moon. Cheng Jing was shocked. He didn't expect that after more than an hour of suppression, Zhao Jue still had the Qi to use such a powerful move. The Qi that suppressed Zhao Ju had to be withdrawn in a hurry, and he made a hand gesture and rushed towards the knife light.

Zhao Ju was waiting for this moment, and the remaining Qi was pumped out like it was free, and he stomped his feet hard. The horse under his crotch couldn't bear such a huge force, and its four legs bent and knelt on the ground, neighing.

Without caring about the horse under his crotch, Zhao Ju quickly used the star-chasing and moon-catching skill, and several afterimages were created on the spot. In the moment before leaving the ground, the hidden weapon was thrown towards Cheng Jing like it was free, and he disappeared on the spot the moment the hidden weapon left his hand.

Taking advantage of the moonlight, the Qi was raging like it was free, and Zhao Ju didn't dare to slow down, and he pulled the star-chasing and moon-catching skill to the full, gritting his teeth and running away desperately.
