Ying Xiu's eyelids twitched wildly, and the good mood he had been in for climbing suddenly disappeared. The various failures in Xianling City made his elegant and handsome face instantly gloomy.
But after all, he comes from a noble family, and as His Highness the Crown Prince, whom everyone respects, he would never make trouble and question others for no reason. That would really be beneath his status.
He didn't ask Balian directly why he was here.
Out of some jealousy that he didn't want to admit, Ying Xiu did not reveal in public that Bai Lian was the new lord of Xianling City.
After all, this place is in the Tianxi Sword Sect, which is half of his home. The men and women who boarded the Jiuchongguan Mountain Gate tonight are all young talents and beauties from different parts of the world.
Ying Xiu has the ambition to travel around the world and make friends with the world. He has great ambitions and wants to change the world's prejudiced view of the Zhongyou Dynasty.
In the past, Tianxi opened the mountain gate every ten years to accept disciples. What Yingxiu carried was the identity of the Prince of Zhongyou. He knew that his father had never liked the cunning style of the Zhongyou Dynasty, and he did not dare to go up the mountain without permission.
It's just that in recent years, his cultivation of deception has reached a bottleneck, and the secret path really answers the saying in the world: "If you want to walk on the high road, don't show the small paths; if you don't use the sea, you will find the traces of cattle; if you don't use the sun, wait for the fireflies."
Xianling City failed to subdue Yougui Lang, and also lost Xu Yin, and even the Ghost Weeping Pearl missed. The seemingly unparalleled prince had actually reached the point where his skills were exhausted.
They are both the Third Son of Heaven, and I heard that the other two went to the Demon Realm, the place of life and death, for no reason.
After coming back, he successfully passed through the Soul Tribulation Kai, opened the Ling Mansion through Shen Zang Netherworld, and became the youngest immortal in the ages.
In front of the two girls, Ying Xiu already had a lot of inferiority complex. When he knew that the two of them were competing against each other, he broke through the spirit at a very young age and was given the Emperor's personal touch on the destiny horoscope.
Ying Xiu's pride took a toll on him, and he secretly took a lot of forbidden medicine and spiritual materials. He actually tried to encourage her, and then succeeded her two daughters in breaking the spirit.
Kankan has maintained the prestige of being equally famous among the three geniuses.
It looks beautiful on the surface, but who knows the sadness and hardship underneath?
Over the years, Ying Xiu's foundation has not yet been solidified, and his practice has become increasingly difficult. Before he can meditate and practice deeply, the news came again that the two women have become immortals.
Under a bolt from the blue, Ying Xiu knew that it would not work if he continued like this. He gritted his teeth and regardless of his father's majesty, he bravely climbed the White Camel Mountain once.
If he can stand out in this disciple selection competition, he can climb the Tianshan Mountain from the Taoist Sword Pavilion.
Just as the unsightly Jinsheng was deposed, the Thirteen Kites Brutal Sword was also vacant. With the sword master's blood flowing in his body, it shouldn't be too easy to conquer the unowned Thirteen Swords.
In fact, Ying Xiu did not disappoint himself in the nine-level test. He performed very well and won the support and love of dozens of people.
Everything went smoothly, but unexpectedly, as soon as they stepped onto the mountain gate, they saw that the sword masters who usually saw the dragon but never saw its tail gathered together and began to greet the young man.
"Ah, it's the young master." Ye Qingzhou, who was equally elegant in people and swordsmanship, heard Ying Xiu greeting him and raised his eyes to look at him with a smile.
Ye Qingzhou nodded to express that he was surprised by his mountain climbing behavior. His romantic appearance was a bit perfunctory, and he quickly looked away. He waved to Bai Lian seriously and said, "Here, let me show you my palm." , let’s see how your luck is in the future, whether you are prosperous and have a wife, will you be blessed with children and heirs?”
Ying Xiu couldn't tell for a moment whether he was their young master or this guy was their young master.
He was not sure what this kid had done to get such a group of self-esteemed sword masters so close to each other. Even if he claimed his identity as the city lord, he would not be able to do this.
Suppressing the anger in his heart, Ying Xiu did not dare to make trouble in front of them by relying on his identity as the young master. He still looked stable and self-sufficient, deliberately ignoring Bai Lian's existence.
At this time, the senior brother of the Tianxi Sword Sect was not there. He bowed to the Erjian Yue Nu again and said respectfully: "Senior Sister Yue Nu."
The falling snow makes no sound, and the cold pool is quiet.
Yue Nu slowly raised her eyes. Different from the cold night, her ordinary face did not bring her world-shattering beauty, but her features were gentle and delicate: "Young master, listen to my advice. At this moment, You’re not cut out for climbing.”
Yue Nu's words were meant as good-natured advice, without any sarcasm or contempt. Ying Xiu took it as a piece of advice and did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. He humbly said: "May I ask Senior Sister, why is this?"
The Yue girl sighed softly and said, "The eldest princess is also in the mountain. I'm afraid she will meet the sect master soon."
Ying Xiu's heart suddenly trembled, and he heard Yue Nu continue to say: "Young Master went to Jidao Pavilion a few days ago."
Her eyes were still soft, but cold sweat began to break out on Ying Xiu's back.
Yue Nu glanced at the climbers who were holding the stars in their arms, and after all, she still took his face into consideration and did not speak too bluntly.
"I am not qualified to comment on the affairs of the Zhongyou Dynasty, but things in the Jidao Pavilion have always been allowed in and out.
The young master traveled around the world, and I am afraid that there are many things that he failed to pay attention to, but after all, they were murderous cases of human life. I took the initiative to suppress the matter of Jidao Pavilion for the time being. However, in the dark city of Zeguo, the eldest princess saw I've done some bad things, I'm afraid I won't hide it from the sect leader. "
Yue Nu's soft eyes were gentle and without any blame, and she looked at Ying Xiu with a gaze that was neither distant nor affectionate.
After all, it was Tianxi who felt guilty to Zhongyou, and he was the only son of those two adults. If it were someone else, how could Yue Nu show favoritism.
If someone was killed, with her seemingly gentle but extremely principled temperament, she might just take his person and put him in the Sin Sword Pond and face the wall for three months.
But now that Tianxi Sword Sect has reached such a situation, if the sect master knew about it, he would be merciless in anger and kill this son with one sword. Tianxi and Zhongyou would really be in a fight to the death.
Yingxiu's words made Ying Xiu wet with cold sweat all over his body. He was obviously afraid of the sword master Yu, and his face turned pale with fear.
Because he has no doubt about what Yue Nu is worried about.
He managed to calm down and forced a smile to Yue Nu: "What happened to the Jidao Pavilion is not what I want and it is not my intention. The Tianxi Sword Pavilion opens only once every ten years. I really don't want to miss this opportunity. If Yue Nu Senior sister can protect me more in front of my father, Ying Xiu will be grateful."
The Yue woman has a gentle temperament, which is best able to soothe Sword Master Yu's emotions. If she can protect him, Ying Xiu will definitely suffer a lot less.
"Young Master, you are serious." Unfortunately, Yue Nu didn't accept his words at all.
She said so, if he still insists on asking for trouble, even though he is the young master, she will not be too partial.
Ying Xiu originally said that although he was far away from Tianxi, he always believed that his identity as the young master was very important in the eyes of Tianxi's Thirteen Swordsmen. Now seeing her posture, he felt greatly disappointed.
He has not been to Baituo Mountain for a hundred years, but now that he is back home, he feels more like a foreigner.
Ying Xiu understood that most of this was because his swordsmanship was difficult to achieve, and his father was disappointed with him. Naturally, the Thirteen Tianxi Swords under his hand would not take him seriously.
He sighed softly and said: "Yingxiu's mountain climbing is not for selfish reasons. Three years ago, I had an enlightenment, which finally enabled me to understand a hint of the true meaning of "Tai Shang Dao Qing Sword Jue". The inheritance of the Tianxi cannot be passed down." Unlike my generation, Yingxiu is ashamed and knows that his swordsmanship is mediocre, but he also wants to take advantage of this sword pavilion to further his study of the Supreme Swordsmanship."
Yue Nu's gentle expression finally changed. Not only her, but also the other sword masters also raised their heads. Their attention shifted from Bailian to Ying Xiu's side. Their expressions were full of surprise and surprise. .
Taishang Daoqing Sword Jue is a secret book passed down by the Tianxi clan, and only members of the Baili family are qualified to inherit it.
As the young master of Tianxi, Ying Xiu did not have the chance to understand such sacred and profound swordsmanship, which has always been the biggest regret of Tianxi Sword Sect.
No one cares more about the inheritance of Tianxi than Thirteen Swords.
"Oh? The young master has such a good fortune. I wonder how far he has mastered Taishang Daoqing Sword Jue?" Yue Nu's tone is still calm, but there is a different look in her gentle eyes.
Ying Xiu clearly felt the change in the demeanor of the sword masters. He perked up, then raised his sword fingers and pointed out from the air. The green sword sword roared out through the wind and exploded from his fingertips. Come.
The sword intention pointed out by one finger silently cut off the path of the falling snow, and many sword masters looked solemn and in awe.
"It is indeed the Taishang Daoqing Sword Jue." Yue Nu's lips curved slightly, her eyes were filled with joy, but her tone was filled with a bit of regret and disappointment: "It's a pity that the green light sword energy has not yet taken shape, not to mention that the sword energy has turned into a python. , even the Green Snake Sword Qi is not visible, the wisp of sword Qi is like smoke, misty and almost invisible."
Yue Nu spoke very straightforwardly, which made Ying Xiu's face turn red and he retracted his fingers in embarrassment.
Jiu Jian Li Jiang Ling Zhaoxue smoothed things over and said with a smile: "Young Master's ability to sense the Supreme Sword Intent is already very impressive. If you enter the Sword Pavilion, you may not be able to raise Jian Qing."
Yue Nu shook her head and laughed and said: "Young Master has understood the Taishang Daoqing Sword Art, even if you don't need our protection, the sword master will not embarrass the young master too much."
Ying Xiu smiled respectfully and said, "I also hope that all senior brothers and sisters can give me more advice in the future."
With a little show of his hand, Ying Xiu's goal of wanting them to take a good look at him has been achieved. There was no trace of pride in his eyes, and he glanced at Bai Lian calmly, only to find that he was also looking at him. He retracted his sword finger with a thoughtful expression.
The look on his face clearly didn't look like he was amazed by his sword intent.
Ying Xiu felt slightly disdainful. He, a foreigner, didn't know anything about swordsmanship. If he could really understand the true meaning of this supreme swordsmanship, then he would be considered capable.
Jiang Yunqin had been paying close attention silently. Seeing that the well-educated Crown Prince He Guang Neiyuan had won the admiration of these big shots without showing his talent, he was secretly filled with admiration and admiration.
Ying Xiu's subtle glance was naturally seen by her.
Jiang Yunqin secretly wondered if he knew that young man too.
That look was obviously not a friendly look, and Jiang Yunqin suddenly had an idea in his mind and made the boldest decision in his life.
She let out a soft sigh, blinked and looked at Bailian, pretending to be puzzled, and said: "This young master... I remember that he was dismissed in the second round of assessment, why is he here?"
Although this move is likely to offend the second-round sword examiner, this is a huge risk.
But at the same time, she was able to welcome Ying Xiu's favor.
A sword master and the future master of the Celestial Seal.
The gains and losses are very subtle.
Sure enough, as soon as he said this, Bailian immediately received the angry looks of the test participants.
Cheating on exams is undoubtedly the most shameful thing.
Shen Zhan, who was smiling to himself, calmed down. She glanced at Jiang Yunqin quietly. Just as she was about to speak, Ying Xiu spoke first: "Oh? You mean this little brother's second round of assessment?" Didn’t all pass?”
His tone and demeanor were innocent and curious, without any sarcasm, but he succeeded in winning countless disdainful and mocking eye rolls for Bailian.
When Jiang Yunqin saw Ying Xiu's appearance, she knew that her goal had been achieved. Although she felt a little guilty about Bailian, this was related to her future development in Tianxi and she could not tolerate being soft-hearted.
"I vaguely remember that this young master only has seven spiritual nodes, which is not enough to get to the top of the mountain. But why..." Jiang Yunqin looked at Bai Lian with a puzzled expression.
But she saw that the young man looked calm and calm, without any trace of shame or guilt. He was wrapped in a fox fur cloak and looked at her calmly.
Jiang Yunqin was so confused that he forgot what to say next.
However, Ying Xiu did not miss this opportunity. In Xianling City, he was always worried about the various intimate behaviors between Bai Lian, Yin Baishuang and Su Jing.
His dark eyebrows became serious and he said: "The rules of the Tianxi Sword Sect are extremely strict. If you only have seven spiritual power nodes, it is not enough to become an inner disciple of our sect."
At this point, Ying Xiu, who had always been polite and gentle, revealed an aggressive aura.
Qi Liancheng, who is known as "Little Shangyang", and Yingxiu are angry from the same nostril. He also said angrily: "If someone like him can become an inner disciple, how can the assessment set by Tianxi Sword Sect be better?" What’s the point, I don’t accept it!”
"I don't accept it either!"
"Yes, I don't accept it either! Why are we working so hard and he is enjoying the comfort here!"
Balian chuckled and said, "Who said I was going to become an inner disciple of the Tianxi Sword Sect?"
The noisy noise suddenly quieted down, and he waved the small wooden sign in his hand and said leisurely: "I am here to be the mascot of Tianxi."
Everyone was stunned, and Ying Xiu also looked strange: "What did you say?"
"I said I'm here to be a mascot." In terms of pretense, Bai Lian is better at pretending to be well-behaved and innocent than Ying Xiu.
He sat on the chair, tilted his body leisurely, and leaned on Yue Nu's shoulder. With his extremely good appearance, such a frivolous move was not offensive at all.
He looked at the man and smiled like this, which made the Yue girl, who was beyond the world, couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
"Brothers and sisters, do you think this is true?"
Ye Qingzhou, who was known as a romantic, was completely impressed and finally understood why her sword-crazy senior sister wanted to secretly draw a portrait of this young man.
The handsome look when he smiles is really rare.
Yue Nu also pursed her lips and smiled: "It makes sense." That smile was very different from the non-closeness when she looked at Ying Xiu, she actually let him lean on her.
Ying Xiu opened his mouth, but was speechless for a moment.
When he reacted, he blurted out the words "Are you trying to amuse me?"
At this time, a sword howl and dragon roar came from the distant mountains, and a red sword light like a rainbow piercing the sun came in the form of a dragon. It was the sword of the Tianxi Sword Master, the Shenglong Sword.
Sword Master Yu Yujian came on the wind and landed on the top of the mountain. The Shenglong Sword circled several times in the wind and snow before it fell steadily into the scabbard on his waist.
His dark and cold eyes looked down, and in the bright light of the lamp, his handsome and sharp side face was calm and indifferent, and his eyes lightly swept over everyone.
The Thirteen Sword Masters were okay, they had long been accustomed to Sword Master Yu's aura and pressure, but the young disciples who took part in the examination suddenly tightened their expressions and did not dare to make any more noise.
Sword Master Yu was obviously startled when his eyes fell on Bailian. He stepped down the steps, and the cold sword power in his body actually calmed down a bit, and he bowed his hands to Bailian in a lukewarm manner: " I don’t know that City Lord Si Chen is coming, but Yu Yu is far away to greet him.”
The whole place was silent!
Jiang Yunqin looked at the sword master of the world who was discussing friendship with the young man with a very interesting expression.
The embroidery needle in Shen Zhan's hand dropped to the ground, his mouth opened wide, and the remaining sword masters had different expressions, all of them were shocked and shocked.
Yue Nu also opened her eyes wide, extremely surprised, and then smiled helplessly.
This young man really knows a lot about Zangfeng.
The young lady from the Jiang family who came from the Kingdom of Shu may be so regretful that her intestines will turn green right now.
Bailian stood up, glanced at Sword Master Yu's face with unclear meaning, returned the salute slowly and slowly, and said softly: "Junior Si Chen, I have met Master Baili."
It's not the sword master, but...
Baili Sect Master.
