Cheng Xian received the message from her grandfather. She understood the rules of the back mountain, and there was no mention of secrets in it.
Just tell her that since she promised to help others, she must do it as soon as possible.
With her eyes brightened, Cheng Xian burned the letter and got up to go out.
"Prepare a car and go to the Imperial Capital Chamber of Commerce." She has already found out some news about the Great Goblin Yuan, and if nothing unexpected happens, she will get something soon.
…
Xi Qiangwei was dressed in red, with cold eyebrows, walking in Professor Diwu's residential area.
Just now, she went to visit Ke Qing, a well-known alchemist in the Imperial Martial Arts School.
Perhaps it was because Master Yun had greeted her in advance and the other party was very patient and answered many of her doubts, but the alienation and indifference in his voice was enough to express too much.
Xi Qiangwei's breath became even colder, and suddenly at this moment, she heard a noise.
"...Junior Brother Zhang Tie, please eat slowly. Master Zou is treating you today, so you can certainly take care of yourself." The voice of the owner of the voice was a little weak, but exuded a light soothing and gentle feeling in the blue sky.
"Hehe, it's not like Master Zou used to treat guests and always only had half full to eat. The idiot has lost his memory today. It's a good thing!"
"Senior Brother Tao, if you say this, I will tell my father..."
"Master Zou believes in me the most. Even if you tell me, junior sister, he won't believe it!"
A faint sneer sounded, "Really?"
"Master Zou, spare your life, I was wrong!"
Amidst the begging for mercy, there was a burst of laughter.
Xi Qiangwei glanced sideways. The brand-new courtyard seemed to be infected by the joyful atmosphere, and the coldness around her body was slightly dissipated.
But in the end, she just paused and then drifted away.
…
In a magnificent mansion, a noble lady was crying hard, her eyes were red and swollen, and her voice was hoarse, "My poor God!"
"He was only in his twenties and had a bright future ahead of him, but he died in the hands of evil people. I hate it!" She threw herself to the ground and hugged the man's leg. "Master, you must avenge Tian'er. You must not Let his death be in vain!”
Mr. Jiang's mouth twitched, and pain flashed in his eyes. He had many sons, but this one was the most promising.
Jiang Tian's death was a huge blow to him?
"Ma'am, please shut up."
Jiang Ziliu knelt down with cold eyes, "If it wasn't for your mother's family to blow the wind, why would Tian'er take the risk to cling to the nobles of the Tian family? He wouldn't have died violently."
"Luo Guan has now entered Diwu Houshan. He is no longer what he used to be. Madam's natal family is not afraid of her, but the Jiang family cannot afford to offend her!"
Breaking away from the woman, Jiang Ziliu strode away.
The crying behind him became quieter, but the resentment in the woman's eyes became more and more serious.
…
"Jin Ya, grandpa's seventieth birthday is approaching. All of us are doing our best to invite our most valuable guests to add glory to grandpa's birthday and highlight the prosperity of our Jin family!" The cousin sneered at the corner of his mouth without any concealment. , "But what about your guests? Otherwise, if you don't invite any of them, it would really be an embarrassment to the Jin family!"
"Whatever you say will add glory to grandpa's birthday, just don't smear it. The original rumor spread like wildfire!"
"That's right, I haven't even gotten married yet, but I'm actually raising a pretty girl in Jiangning. What a fun time!"
"If I can't invite even a single distinguished guest, I would definitely have no shame attending grandpa's birthday banquet."
A group of people jeered and walked away.
Liu Qing looked humiliated and said angrily: "How dare these people be so rude to young lady..."
"Okay!" Jin Ya took a deep breath and looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar Jin family mansion. "Now is not the same as before. Be careful with your words and actions to avoid getting into trouble."
Liu Qing gritted her teeth and said, "Yes." After a moment of hesitation, she said, "Miss, do we want to send a letter to Jiang Ning?"
Jin Ya frowned, "No! The fourth master is such a person, and if I invite you rashly, it will only make you annoying... Let's think of a way."
The image of a young man appeared in her mind. They haven't seen each other for several months. I wonder where you have been when you traveled around the world? If you are here, maybe I can try and invite Fourth Master to attend the birthday banquet...
Alas, now in the imperial capital, she is struggling!
…
In the early spring, it is so fast that it is impossible to catch it. In the blink of an eye, the willow branches that have just been cut are already green. The sword tower in Diwu Hou Mountain finally opened on the sixth day of silence.
The two Heavenly King List students from the Third Heaven came out with doubts on their faces because they had never seen Luo Guan from the beginning to the end.
There is only one explanation - Luo Guan's shortcomings in cultivation were fully exposed in the sword tower. He could not withstand the suppression of the sword and retreated early.
This put the two of them in a good mood, but the worst thing about it was that they were not at the bottom of the sword tower, which was at least a consolation.
Two days later, the sword tower was opened again.
The three students from the fourth level appeared with solemn expressions and returned to the residential courtyard.
On the ninth day, Han Dong walked out of the sword tower with heavy steps. He thought that his determination was far beyond ordinary people, but persisting to this day was his limit.
But Luo Guan was on a higher level of the tower, but he hadn't come out yet.
Han Dong suddenly discovered that his road to catching up might be very long!
The fifth floor of the sword tower.
Mu, Ye and Su San's faces were twisted and their teeth were gritted.
Twelve days!
It had broken their previous record of highest persistence, but Luo Guan was still practicing, his expression as calm as before.
Pack! He must be pretending!
Now, I must be extremely uncomfortable. To act relaxed in front of us is to deliberately create psychological pressure and ruin our mood.
The current junior brother is too insidious!
The three of them looked at each other and determined that each of them had reached their limit. If they continued to hold on any longer, they would be injured, which would have an impact on their training in the sword tower next month.
"Hmph! Such a cunning junior brother, I almost fell into his scheme!" Mu Bei sneered, his expression insightful, "Luo Guan must have some kind of trump card in his hand that can resist the sword intent of the sword tower, otherwise how can he persist with his cultivation? So far? He deliberately behaves calmly to make you and me angry, just to make us fight with him here to the end!"
Ye Feng gritted his teeth, "...it will lead us to waste. It is best to get hurt and miss the next opening of the sword tower. This way he will have the opportunity to catch up and surpass you and me to advance to the sixth level."
"It's a pity that we have seen through his trick!" Su Nan sneered again and again, stood up and left, "Old Mu, Lao Ye, I'll take the first step."
"Together!"
"Humph, let's wait outside until he comes out with a disappointed look on his face."
The three of them were walking in a hurry and their backs were anxious.
Really, if I don’t leave, I won’t be able to bear it anymore!
Mu Bei, Ye Feng, and Su Nan left the Sword Tower and lasted for twelve days this month. The news spread in the Emperor Wu Hou Mountain, and the other members of the Heavenly King List were immediately envious. These three are stronger than before, and it won't take long to reach the sixth level of the Sword Tower.
As usual, they waited for four days to give the three bulls from Tianbang enough time to rest, and then they came together to hold this month's Tianbang exchange meeting.
We are all on the same list, we are competitors and partners. Those seniors who live in seclusion here and never come out all year round gather regularly to exchange their cultivation experiences. They learn from each other, and indeed each has gained something, and it has become a tradition.
But today, everyone was in vain. None of the three bulls on the Tianbang were in the small courtyard. Just when they were puzzled, Han Dong, who was participating in the exchange meeting for the first time, said expressionlessly: "They may be in the sword tower."
"The sword tower won't be opened until next month, why go there?" Although they didn't believe it, they were bored and looked for it.
Really, I saw the figures of the Three Bulls on the Heavenly List. They looked like clay sculptures made of wood. They looked towards the sword tower calmly, turning a deaf ear to the footsteps behind them. It seemed that their body and mind had been immersed in some kind of cultivation state.
On the fourth floor, Senior Zi Jing's face was full of admiration, "Mu, Ye, and Su are worthy of being men who stand on the top of the world list. Their will to practice hard is incomparable to mine."
Someone echoed, "Perhaps these three have found the key to entering the sixth floor of the sword tower. Now they can practice even outside the tower."
"I am not as good as my generation, not as good as me!"
At this moment, Mu Bei let out a breath. This breath was so long and deep that it even gave people the feeling that they would empty their chest and never come back. It was full of sadness and sadness.
Turning around, he saw everyone behind him, "Ah, you are here too..."
Ye Feng and Su Nan turned around and looked at everyone, but they didn't seem to be focused on them. Their eyes were empty and dazed.
The air suddenly became dull and depressing.
Everyone didn't know what happened to the three bulls on the Tianbang list, and they didn't seem to be in a good mood.
The self-scared senior coughed lightly and said with a smile: "You three have something on your mind? How can this be done? We are still waiting to communicate with you and make progress together."
After a brief pause, the corner of his mouth curled up slightly, "Well, let me tell you a joke, and the three of you will be happy to hear it. Luo Guan, kill Jiang Tian with his sword, and in the first year of entering the Imperial Martial Arts, he will be ranked fourth on the list of Heavenly Kings, and the three of them will be Aren’t you curious as to why he’s not here?”
The corners of Tianbang Sanniu's mouth twitched, and their expressions became weird.
Senior Zi Jing said so happily that he didn't notice their expressions. Zi Gu clapped his hands fiercely and laughed and said: "He entered the sword tower and didn't even go up to the third heaven. From the beginning, the two junior brothers Zhang Cheng and Wang Wei I didn’t see this person! I searched all over the back mountain after I came out, but there was no trace of Luo Guan. He must have been too shameless to hide out!"
He has a sect background, and is somewhat in alliance with Baiyun Sect. Although he did not have a direct conflict with Luo Guan, it can be seen that he tore off the face of the Imperial Martial Sect and threw them to the ground. It is inevitable that he will not be happy.
At this moment, laugh with everyone.
But with a smile, a few people realized something was wrong. The three cows on the list looked blank and looked at them with eyes filled with pity.
Mu Bei coughed lightly and tried to speak as calmly as possible, "Luo Guan entered the sword tower on the first day, and he entered the fifth heaven. When we came out, he was still inside." After a slight pause, "...and, to this day, he has not come out yet."
Everyone's smiles froze on their faces, and the sudden changes in expressions made their muscles twitch.
The self-frightened senior exclaimed, "Impossible! How could I not know that he entered the fifth heaven?" He then looked at Zhang and Wang, "The two junior brothers were in the third heaven, and Luo Guan did not come up."
Zhang and Wang nodded hurriedly.
"Luo Guan has indeed entered the fifth heaven!" Han Dong said indifferently, paused briefly, "I have seen this with my own eyes."
Look at him, and then look at the three bulls on the list with heavy expressions.
The matter is confirmed!
From this day on, there was no laughter in Diwu Houshan.
…
The fifth floor of the sword tower.
Luo Guan suddenly woke up from his training and found that there was an extra wisp of sword intent in his body!
It's the eternal sword body - it worked tirelessly to grind it, and actually took a bite out of it.
But obviously, the eternal sword body couldn't absorb it. This sword intention flowed with the sword breath, which made Luo Guan tremble with fear, fearing that it would explode in the next second.
Although there is only one strand, it is still no problem to tear him into a hundred or so pieces.
Fortunately, the sword intention in his body was very stable and there was no sign of going berserk yet. Luo Guan hurriedly asked.
Xuangui paused for a while, then spoke after careful consideration, "It doesn't matter, I'll teach you a trick. Use it when breaking through a situation or facing an enemy. This ray of sword intent will be useful."
It gave a few instructions, Luo Guanmo used his skills, and was barely able to control this sword intent, and he suddenly felt reassured.
Just as he was about to continue practicing, he was stopped by Xuangui, "Boy, it's time for you to go out."
Luo Guan was puzzled, "Teacher, although this disciple is a little tired, he can still hold on for a few more days."
The Twelve Emperor Swords of the Great Wilderness are running in the sword tower, and the effect of cultivation is almost immediate. You can clearly feel it at all times, and the energy and blood in the body are increasing. He was so immersed in it that he barely noticed the passage of time. Luo Guan even felt that he could continue to practice here.
"Your boy is now at the peak of the Thousand Mountains Realm. If you continue to practice, you will be unable to suppress it and will directly break through the Ten Thousand Realm Realm!" Xuangui sneered and reminded him, "You don't want to leave the path of the most powerful martial arts?"
"Ah... you've reached the peak of Qianshan Mountain so quickly!" Luo Guan whispered, even being frightened.
The Twelve Emperor Swords of the Great Wilderness are cultivated in the sword tower. The improvement is so terrifying, it is simply worse than a bad one!
"Thanks to the teacher for reminding me, I really need to go."
We must find a way to get the hobgoblin element as soon as possible!
