Chapter 377 Take action
Gongsun Li quietly hid behind the Yewang City guards.

She went to learn sword skills from Cheng Jiao but didn't see him. She accidentally heard her grandfather's men report that Chang'an Jun had arrived at the Chunqiu Inn.

She followed secretly.

Seeing that Cheng Jiao seemed to be in danger in the inn, Li Ji's pretty face showed some anxiety.

But when Li Ji saw her grandfather go in, she felt a little relieved because she knew his strength.

Han Xin, who was far away in the role of Yewang, did not wear a straw raincoat and a hat, but instead put on a black-winged cloak.

Still no appearance was revealed.

He did not take the risk of being with the Yin family. After collecting intelligence on Cheng Jiao, he was almost certain that Cheng Jiao had a mysterious treasure that could temporarily help him improve his combat power.

As for this treasure, he is now slowly beginning to lean towards the Seven Stars of the Azure Dragon.

I didn't expect that what Bai Yifei said was actually true.

Han Xin, the man in the straw raincoat, said to himself, he thought Bai Yifei had framed Cheng Jiao, but it turned out to be such a coincidence.
Otherwise, why would he have gone to so much trouble to persuade the Yin family and join forces with Lu Buwei to target Cheng Jiao?

But now Cheng Jiao is no less powerful than a celestial being. Even though he has made a lot of preparations, he has no confidence in defeating Cheng Jiao.

The atmosphere in the inn became solemn.

The acting leader's heart sank to the bottom.

Cheng Jiao alone was enough to make them despair, not to mention the addition of Gongsun Yu, who was universally recognized as the best man under heaven in the martial arts world.

Especially since the Yin family had many activities in the Wei State and even interfered with the royal power, the relationship between the Yin family and the Wei State can only be described as bad.

Cheng Jiao didn't expect Gongsun Yu to come so quickly.

"Thank you, old general. But I am enough to take care of these people."

Gongsun Yu's tiger eyes swept around and looked at the three men in black who were lying unconscious on the ground.

With his knowledge, he could naturally see that these three people were top masters, and everyone in the room was also top-notch.

The acting leader of the Yin family was only one level inferior to him.

I was secretly shocked. I didn't expect that there were so many top masters in the Yin family.

If they attack me, I'm afraid Weiguo will be finished.

Fortunately, there are many hills within Yinjia, and they are not united as one.

What was the reason that allowed the people of the Yin family to unite and target Cheng Jiao?
Even Lu Buwei was involved.

Gongsun Yu looked at Cheng Jiao and said thoughtfully, "Lord Chang'an, these people are causing trouble in Wei State, so leave them to me."

As he spoke, he approached Cheng Jiao.

Cheng Jiao sensed something was wrong.

The perception was focused on Gongsun Yu, and it was discovered that Gongsun Yu had already mobilized his internal strength, but was ready to attack.

"Old General, are you in the same group with them?"

Cheng Jiao shouted softly.

Compared to this era, I have experienced the information explosion in later generations and have seen too many things.

Especially, he was wondering just now that he had arrived early, so he had enough time to deal with these people from the hidden family and have a midnight snack at the same time.

But why did Gongsun Yu come one after him?

The only possibility is that the flare just now was reminding something. As soon as the flare went out, Gongsun Yu appeared. There is definitely a connection.

Was it done by the straw raincoat man?
Cheng Jiao was thinking a lot, Gongsun Yu stopped and didn't dare to approach Cheng Jiao anymore.

A life-and-death crisis.

I haven't felt that in a long time.

Gongsun Yu said he was under a lot of pressure.

Now Qin wanted to attack Wei, which had moved its capital three times, leaving only the big city of Yewang. If it was attacked again, Wei would be destroyed.

Especially now that King Wei is seriously ill, the State of Wei is in a precarious situation.

Last night, a man in black sneaked into the palace and found him just as he was returning from visiting King Wei.

In his hand was a handwritten letter and seal from Lu Buwei, the prime minister of Qin, as well as a token of trust.

It can be seen that Lu Buwei was determined to take down Cheng Jiao even at the cost of exposing himself to the Qin royal family.

What he thought in his heart was that as long as he cooperated with the Yin family, captured Cheng Jiao and handed him over to the Yin family, the Wei State could be saved from disaster.

From the letter he knew that Qin did not have to fight against Wei.

It was the Wang and Li families in the court who wanted to be promoted to generals for their military merits that led to Qin launching the offensive and defensive war.

By referring to Gai Nie's letter again, he can confirm that what was said in the letter is true.

The man in black said bluntly that Cheng Jiao was already a celestial being, and it was up to him to decide what to do.

Gongsun Yu felt a little melancholy. He had never forgotten the decisiveness he had learned while studying in Guiguzi.

Fortunately, there is no need to kill Cheng Jiao, we just need to cooperate with the Yin family to capture Cheng Jiao.

Afterwards, all responsibility will be taken care of by the Yin family in a statement, claiming that everything was their fault.

With this thought in mind, facing the fact that he had been exposed, Gongsun Yu said cautiously: "Lord Chang'an, please do not blame me for this. Lü Buwei promised me that he would not attack Wei again. As a Wei citizen, it is difficult for me to refuse."

Cheng Jiao was not angry. Instead, he was wondering why Lu Buwei could endure until now. It turned out that he was waiting for him here.

If I hadn't made a breakthrough, I would have been in a tough battle today.

"Old General, don't worry. We have different positions, and I don't care."

Cheng Jiao said calmly that if he were in his place, he would not refuse conditions that would save his country from destruction.

Wei State is not Han State. For Qin State, it can choose to fight it or not.

Gongsun Yu drew his sword and said, "In that case, I would like to thank Lord Chang'an first."

The acting leader of the Yin family has come to realize that Gongsun Yu is the helper that the Straw-Robed Guest mentioned. Also, when did the Straw-Robed Guest have contact with Lu Buwei?
"Change!"

There were only seven of them left, and an ambush from all sides was no longer possible.

Fortunately, we had a plan in place: the Nine Palaces Formation, the Eight Diagrams Formation, the Seven Stars Big Dipper Formation, the June Snow Formation, the Five Elements Formation, the Four Symbols Formation, the Three Talents Formation, the Two Yin and Yang Formation...

There is always one suitable for you.

Now with the existence of Gongsun Yu, a half-step celestial being, their pressure has been reduced a lot.

As long as Cheng Jiao cannot kill one of them with his full strength, as long as he cannot kill them instantly, they will disgust Cheng Jiao to death.

Gongsun Yu was not in a hurry to attack, but was slowly building up his strength.

Cheng Jiao was surprised and said, "No wonder people in the martial arts world call you the best person under the gods. You have actually begun to gather spiritual power, and even your soul power has entered the level of gods."

"If I were not so old, I might still be able to reach the realm of heaven. I wanted to fight for heaven before I die, but now it seems that I have no chance. What a pity."

Gongsun Yu looked a little older, and his aura was even stronger than before.

"Lord Chang'an, if I die in your hands today, I will have no regrets. I only ask that you take Li Ji away from Wei State for the sake of our one-day relationship as master and disciple."

Cheng Jiao condensed the ice sword again.

"Old General, do you really believe that after your death, Lu Buwei will keep his promise?"

Gongsun Yu said in a deep voice: "If Lü Buwei cannot do what he promised me, someone will help me deliver his handwritten letter, seal and token to Ying Zheng's desk."

Cheng Jiao chuckled and said, "In that case, my brother will be very happy."

He didn't say any other nonsense. Now the situation was like that of an enemy. Even if he promised to help Gongsun Yu and prevent Qin from attacking Wei, Gongsun Yu would not be convinced and would suspect that he was just delaying the attack.
