The sky is getting brighter and the moon has set in the west.
On the ancient road, Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue finally arrived late and rushed back.
"You mean that person calls himself the 'Tianxia Alliance'?"
Ye Kai was carrying someone on his back, it was Ding Linglin whose whereabouts were unknown.
Ding Linglin nodded, a little confused: "Yes... when did such a force appear in the world? And it is extremely mysterious. I, the eldest daughter of the Ding family, have never heard of it."
Ye Kai was also confused. He and Fu Hongxue looked at each other and could see the solemnity in each other's eyes.
Because even they have never heard of it.
The Qinglong Society and the Money Gang have been hidden deep enough, and now this "World Alliance" has appeared out of the blue, and we don't know whether it is an enemy or a friend.
The two of them wanted to go upstairs last night, but someone suddenly called out secretly, promising to follow him if he wanted to find Ding Linglin. The two of them had no choice but to follow. Unexpectedly, the man was extremely skilled in qinggong and took advantage of the night to lure them in circles. , it was not until half an hour ago that the two found Ding Linglin in an exquisite and luxurious carriage.
Surprisingly, Ding Linglin was enjoying the food and drink. There were delicious dishes in front of her, and there was no sign of being robbed at all. She ate with her mouth full of grease and forgot herself.
"When did so many masters appear in the world?"
The more Ye Kai thought about it, the more his head grew bigger, and the more he thought about it, the more surprised he became. Gein's skill last night was also extraordinary. With his lightness, he was unable to catch up in a short period of time, and the opponent also fought Fu Hongxue several times.
Although there are only a few tricks, he already has the unparalleled image of being the best.
The man used a sword, a gray unknown ancient sword.
It's late autumn.
The sky is gray, the earth is yellow, and the road is two colors.
Ye Kai stepped on the dead leaves on the ground, carrying Ding Linglin on his back, and said half seriously and half jokingly: "That man used a left-handed sword, haha, it couldn't be Jing Wuming, right? Although the man's voice was pretending to be hoarse, he should be older. Just like you and me.”
Fu Hongxue's face was expressionless, but for Ye Kai, his voice was much gentler than last night, and he said very seriously: "It's not a left-handed sword, it's a two-handed sword."
Ye Kai's eyes widened: "A young master who is good at wielding two swords?"
But surprise and suspicion turned out to be surprise, but fortunately that person didn't want to be their enemy, he just wanted to distract them.
"Could it be the 'Ghost Master'?" Ye Kai secretly speculated, but he quickly shook his head. Li Muchan's reaction last night seemed to have nothing to do with this matter, "Tianxia Alliance?"
The three of them kept talking, but when they rushed back to the inn, they all looked weird again and froze on the spot, as if they had seen a ghost.
But I saw that the whole inn was very clean and tidy, the door was wide open, the tables and chairs were neatly placed inside, the oil lamps were bright, the wooden stairs were clean, there was a refreshing fragrance in the air, and the horses in the stables were all eating. Waiting for fodder.
Ye Kai and the others stood at the door in a daze, looking at the extra sign on the door of the inn.
"Yelai Inn."
Ding Linglin was a little dumbfounded and looked around, as if to make sure they were looking in the wrong place.
It was clear that there had been a brutal fight here last night, but there was no trace at all. Not to mention the corpse, not even a drop of blood was visible. It had been cleaned from the inside out.
Ye Kai took a deep breath and said absentmindedly: "It's so amazing. I really don't know who did such a powerful method?"
He scanned the market again and saw a series of scattered houses, half hidden in the morning mist, peaceful and quiet.
In the distance, behind the curtains of the tea house that were blown up by the wind, many people staying overnight could be seen lying on the tables and sleeping soundly, as if they didn't know what happened last night.
But this scene makes people feel even more chilling, not scared but frightened.
Ding Linglin rubbed the goosebumps on her arms, her face turned pale, and she whispered: "Ye Kai, let's get out of here quickly. I always feel that everything is weird and uncomfortable."
Ye Kai smiled and said: "You are full, but the two of us haven't eaten yet."
He walked into the inn talking and laughing, and saw a large table in the center of the hall, with a lot of good wine and food on it, some of which were steaming.
There happened to be three sets of bowls and chopsticks on the table, with a big word "please" on the side.
…
The sky was slightly bright, and on a large river eighty miles away from Peacock Villa, a medium-sized wooden boat came along the water.
Before reaching the shore, a slim figure on the shore has jumped up from the ferry. It is as fast as flying, riding on the waves. Its body is elegant and agile, like a hazy purple smoke, flashing past in the morning fog and landing on the boat. .
"Miss, are you injured?"
Mother Liu hurriedly handed over the medicine.
"It's useless," Shangguan Xiaoxian shook his head and pushed it away, "I was poisoned by Miaojiang poison. Ordinary antidote pills have no effect. I can only force it out by myself."
Her lips were as black as ink, black energy lingered between her brows, and her whole body was slightly chaotic. However, she was still able to survive such an injury, and she was able to suppress it.
In addition to Shangguan Xiaoxian and Mama Liu, there was also a laborer with a sword on his waist and an unkempt young woman on the boat.
The oar operator is naturally Lu Xiaojia, and the beggar woman...
"You don't want me to call you sister." The woman's facial features are 80% to 90% similar to Shangguan Xiaoxian's, and her tone is distant, cold, and mixed with hatred. "If you want to kill me, you can do it. There is no need to beat around the bush."
It turns out that this person is the real Shangguan Xianer.
Shangguan Xiaoxian sat cross-legged, pressed her hands softly, and swallowed her breath into her throat and flowed into her Dantian. The muscles and veins all over her body actually emitted a strange brilliance, and the black energy flowing under her skin seemed to be pushed. The blood flowed backwards towards the wound, and finally turned into two strands of black blood under the pressure of internal force, dripping from the pale wrist.
After doing all this, Shangguan Xiaoxian's forehead was covered with cold sweat.
"If it weren't for the 'Acupoint Moving Technique', I would have been in trouble today."
She sighed softly, her eyes already looking at Shangguan Xian'er, looking at her half-siblings.
Since both of them are the daughters of Shangguan Jinhong, their experiences have been surprisingly similar since childhood. They both pretended to be crazy and acted like fools. She lived in the brothel step by step and thrived secretly, but this one lived in the market and turned into a dirty and smelly beggar. Trying to protect yourself and hide others' eyes and ears.
They had never met each other for more than 20 years before this, but now they can't live without each other.
Since Shangguan Xiaoxian wants to dominate the martial arts world and dominate the world, there must be no flaws.
Shangguan Xian'er, who is living outside, is the flaw.
Shangguan Xiaoxian was not angry at the other party's tone, and just said softly: "Don't worry, at the last moment before my defeat, I will never leave you alone, I will definitely send you on your way, but before that, you can say it openly and honestly Say your name."
She had a soft voice and a bright smile on her pale face, but after she smiled a few times, the suppressed black energy began to rise again.
After taking a few breaths, Shangguan Xiaoxian continued: "Li Muchan has practiced the martial arts in the "Clavicle Ecstasy Buddha Scroll". Perhaps, he is the biggest variable in this world, and there is... Peacock The feather is indeed lost, no need to worry about it anymore, just go back to Luoyang."
…
The morning wind suddenly rose, and a ray of brilliant morning sun, like a divine sword cutting through the night, rose from the end of the world and fell on a pale face.
The solitary peak stood alone, and Li Muchan sat cross-legged on the top of the mountain. He slowly opened his eyes, as if a light suddenly appeared in his eyes, blending with the morning light in the distance.
At the foot of the mountain is a huge villa, with towers, courtyards, pavilions and waterside pavilions, and many tiny ant-like figures walking around. It is Peacock Villa.
After adjusting his breath, he stood up, his clothes were half open, and his black robe fluttered in the wind, outlining his tall and thin body. His expression seemed to have returned to its former gentleness, vitality, and good looks.
"Another day full of hope." Li Muchan smiled.
For him, every day now is equivalent to a new life.
The Heavenly Lady of Paradise came over: "What should we do next? Go to Tangmen to meet the other three elders?"
Besides her, there were Peacock, Du Lei, and Ye'er who was still awake.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "Forget it, since I know that the 'Peacock Feathers' are all fake, I won't join in the fun. I will stay here for two days. Now the only thing left is the Demon Cult heading eastward... You guys are... I have high hopes, please don’t let me down, except for Yeer.”
After he finished speaking, he suddenly noticed something, and his eyes dropped to the ancient road outside Peacock Villa.
…
Morning, ninth day of October.
A fast horse, trampled through the wind and frost, came galloping from the other side of the ancient road.
The man on the horse was wearing a dark blue swordsman's uniform, a black cloak on his back, and a hat with a missing corner. He was covered in blood, with a broken sword on his waist, and he was lying low on the horse's back.
The places we passed along the way attracted the attention of many people in the world who came to seek shelter.
"This looks like the founding disciple of Dali Diancang, Senior Brother Zhui Fengjian Guo? How come he looks like this?"
"Quick, catch up and take a look."
…
Then I saw that before the fast horse arrived in front of the "Peacock Villa", the man on the horse had already rolled down, knelt down towards the doorkeeper, and shouted at the top of his lungs: "Please come back to Qiuzhuang." Lord, for the sake of fellow martial arts fellows, please save me from the Cang lineage..."
"Senior Brother Guo, what's wrong with Dian Cang?" Others quickly asked.
The person who came seemed to have been up all night, his eyes were bloodshot. He looked around at the crowd and cried: "My Diancang lineage... is gone... the leader of the Demon Cult has arrived in the Central Plains... I, the Diancang sect, have gone up to the head, and down to the Zai The slave disciples were all slaughtered..."
