Luo Guan received a message with his Diwu ID card, his eyes brightened as he came out of the sword tower and left the back mountain of Diwu.
Along the way, all the Imperial Martial Arts students they met bowed and saluted.
"Meet Senior Brother."
"Hello, senior brother!"
"Sir, you are so handsome, I love you!" A female Imperial Martial student confessed her love publicly. Although her face was red with embarrassment, her eyes were hot and bold.
"...Practice hard and don't think nonsense." Luo Guan looked helpless as he heard laughter behind him. Fortunately, after entering the professor's residential area, there were obviously fewer people.
But here, I met an acquaintance again.
Nangong Duoduo and a few people were chatting in low voices, waiting outside a house. In front of them, there was a long queue, probably wanting to see a certain professor.
This is very common in Imperial Martial Arts. Some powerful professors have tight and precious time, so they need to make an appointment well in advance to meet.
Then, the professor will choose a certain day to meet and give guidance on practice.
"Look, it's Senior Brother."
The crowd suddenly fell silent, and everyone turned to look.
At this moment, Luo Guan strode forward with a tall and straight posture. The sun shone through the leaves, and the mottled light made his face more angular.
Many female students suddenly looked confused.
Afraid of causing trouble again, Luo Guan nodded to everyone in the scene just now and made a gesture of silence. But the shout just now still alerted the people inside. The courtyard door opened and an old professor walked out quickly.
"Greetings to the Young Master!"
The old professor, who is in his seventies and has white beard and hair, salutes meticulously and seriously.
Luo Guan quickly stepped aside, looking embarrassed, "You don't have to be like this, it's the boy who disturbed the professor's teaching."
The old professor frowned, "Since you are the senior brother of the Imperial Martial Arts School, you are also the Young Master. You can accept the courtesy of anyone under the dean."
"This is a rule. If the Young Master takes the lead and fails to abide by it, wouldn't it be ridiculed? Emperor Wu does not know the superiority and inferiority of superiors. This is a taboo for superiors."
Luo Guan smiled bitterly, "Yes, yes, my disciple has learned the lesson...Well, I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
Looking at his back, a smile appeared on the old professor's rigid face.
This direction should be to Zou Chengwei's courtyard. The successor chosen by the dean has a really good character.
In the crowd, Nangong Duoduo had a complicated expression. Several people around her knew to some extent what had happened between her and Luo Guan, and their eyes were subtle.
At the beginning, the young man from the small town whom she was not too fond of but had a crush on had now risen to become the senior brother of the Imperial Martial Arts.
And she, please
After asking someone to send a message, Nangong Duoduo felt bitter when he thought of the scene where the old professor bowed and saluted.
The gap between the two is astonishing.
Once upon a time, she also had the opportunity to gain Luo Guan's friendship...such as the day of the Imperial Martial Competition, or the night banquet on the ninth floor of the Changting Pavilion...
But now, it's too late!
Luo Guan's arrival surprised and delighted Zou Chengwei, and he quickly saluted, "Imperial martial arts teacher Zou Chengwei, pay your respects to the Young Master!"
"Master Zou doesn't have to be like this, it actually makes you look more lively." Luo Guan smiled, "During the battle in the Immortal Sect Arena, you cheered and cheered for me in the audience, but my disciples saw it."
A flash of panic flashed in Zou Chengwei's eyes. I wonder what scene Luo Guan saw?
"Uh... I should, I should." He smiled awkwardly and went straight to the point, "That boy Wang Sun won the first prize in the sword trial and is now the heir apparent of the Wang family in Qinghe County. This is his letter to you and a congratulatory gift. .”
The content of the letter was full of joy. Wang and Sun expressed their congratulations to Luo Guan for sweeping the Immortal Sect and becoming the senior brother of Emperor Wu.
Because now, he has just become the eldest son of the Wang family and still has many things to deal with. He cannot return to the Imperial Martial Arts for the time being, so he apologizes to Luo Guan for this.
Seemingly inadvertently, he mentioned in the letter that there is a large river in Qinghe County that leads directly to the sea. He has ordered people to prepare a large boat and welcome Luo Guan to Qinghe to swim with him on the sea.
The gift was mentioned at the end of the letter, and it was only said that it was an ancient sword in the Wang family's treasury. Its name was Night Banquet, and Luo Guan was asked to accept it as a congratulatory gift.
Luo Guan smiled, feeling happy for Wang and Sun that his long-cherished wish came true. Secondly... he actually prepared a retreat in Qinghe County. Seemingly, he was even ready to give up the Wang family's foundation and flee to sea with him.
Lao Wang is a very loyal person!
But, I have swept through the Immortal Sect and become the Imperial Martial Senior Brother, but you still don’t think highly of me? It's a bit speechless.
Putting the letter away, he picked up the long wooden box next to it. A long sword lay quietly in it - the scabbard was pure black. It looked like Kunpeng's wings, and it was as black as the sky in the middle of the night.
Pulling the sword out of its scabbard, a cold feeling hit my face. On the blade of the sword, there were faint stars surging, and stars appeared in the daytime!
Luo Guan's eyes were solemn. Obviously, the sword that Wang Sun mentioned casually in the letter was definitely not simple!
Not to mention that the sheath is a spontaneous phenomenon, but the sharpness alone is frightening.
"What a sword!" Xuan Gui's voice sounded, "My master actually felt a hint of the aura of the stars and moon from it... This alone is extremely extraordinary.
"
"This boy, Wang Sun, may have given you the most precious thing in the Wang family's treasury, but he knows how to repay his kindness. You have helped him many times in vain."
Luo Guan sighed, "Senior Brother Wangsun, you gave me a big gift."
Zou Chengwei asked, "Is this sword very valuable?" He glanced at it twice and said, "Luo Guan, since he gave it away, just accept it. If it weren't for you, Wang and Sun would not be here today."
At this moment, the courtyard door opened from the outside, and Zou Shanshan, Tao Ye, and Zhang Tie rushed over.
"Meet Senior Brother!"
Luo Guan put away the Night Banquet Sword and handed it over, "Greetings to the two senior brothers and sisters."
"Haha, I knew that Junior Brother Luo would not accept our courtesy!" Tao Ye said excitedly, "Junior Brother De Luo, please call me Senior Brother today. I, Shouhou, are so awesome that I will be bragging about for the rest of my life!"
Zhang Tie just smiled innocently.
"Okay, close the door and stay home, just shout. None of you are allowed to be arrogant when you go out." Zou Chengwei reminded.
"I know, I know, Junior Brother Luo is now the Senior Brother of Emperor Wu. I will definitely salute him respectfully outside."
Zou Shanshan hesitated and said, "Junior brother Luo, are you free tomorrow night?"
"Sister, is there something wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay!" Zou Chengwei said hurriedly, glaring at his daughter, "Luo Guan, the enemy is coming, just practice with peace of mind."
Zou Shanshan lowered her head and said nothing.
Luo Guan smiled and said, "I understand, Master Zou." He paused slightly, "But now, it's dinner time, you can't drive me away, can you?"
"Leave rice for rice! I'll cook the food myself, and Shanshan will come in to help." Zou Chengwei smiled and was in a good mood.
When father and daughter started working in the kitchen, Luo Guan said: "Brother Tao, what is going on?"
Tao Ye wanted to pretend to be stupid, but when he stared at her, he could only smile bitterly and surrender, "Okay, let me tell you, tomorrow is Master Zou's fiftieth birthday, and Junior Sister wants to invite you over to add glory to Master Zou's birthday party."
He hesitated and whispered: "I heard that Junior Sister invited some distinguished guests in advance, but Junior Brother Han Dong rushed to the border a few days ago. After those people found out, their attitude was a little ambiguous."
Luo Guan's eyes flickered, and he understood the whole story. Zou Shanshan wanted to drag him to the rescue.
As for this matter, why didn't you tell him? Judging from the previous reaction, it should be Master Zou's idea and he didn't want to disturb his practice.
Hey, Master Zou, although his strength is a bit lacking, he is undoubtedly a qualified teacher!
Thinking of the past, Luo Guan made a plan in his mind.
After dinner, he didn't stay long and stood up to leave.
