After apologizing to Yueying, Xie Xiangcai felt that the knot in his heart had been completely resolved.
He slept soundly for several nights in a row, and the corners of his mouth would curl up in his sleep from time to time. He must have had some sweet dreams.
Xie Xiangcai rested for a long time before he could completely deal with some of the minor problems left in his body by the King of Conferment.
As time went by, the day when Xie Xiangcai left Dongfeng City got closer and closer.
One morning, there was a familiar knock on the door of Xie Xiangcai's room.
The young man pushed the door open, and sure enough, the Seventh Young Master was leaning on the door frame drunkenly as usual, looking at Xie Xiangcai with flushed cheeks.
Xie Xiangcai was not surprised. He straightened the clothes that were a little untidy on his chest, and then followed the swaying Seventh Young Master towards the back mountain.
On the back mountain, the lychee trees are still in full bloom and the yellow flowers are still attractive.
Xie Xiangcai took a deep breath, tilted his head and asked the Seventh Young Master with a smile, "Senior Brother Seventh, what are we going to learn today?"
When the Seventh Young Master heard the three words "what to study", the drunkenness in his eyes suddenly disappeared, and his whole face was radiant.
He tightened his open clothes and cleared his throat, "Didn't Fifth Senior Brother teach you the sword a few days ago? Let's continue learning the sword!"
Hearing that Senior Brother Seventh said that he wanted to teach him the sword, Prime Minister Xie couldn't help but be startled.
In the young man's impression, although the seventh brother's kung fu was unfathomable, he had never seen him use any weapons.
The Seventh Young Master obviously noticed Xie Xiangcai's doubts, and swung his sleeves and put his hands behind his back, "The senior brothers all said that I am most like the master. I am not good at any weapons, but I have not lost any weapons."
After his words fell, Xie Xiangcai's eyes couldn't help but shrink.
An instant later, only half of the flaming red sword was seen passing by from the horizon, and it was suspended in front of the Seventh Young Master for a moment.
Xie Xiangcai felt the crazy sword energy overflowing from the Seventh Young Master, and stepped back a little.
The Seventh Young Master smiled heartily, took off the wine gourd from his waist, took a swig, and immediately poured all the wine in the gourd onto the sword blade.
"Zila——"
The high temperature on the sword blade was instantly dissolved by the cold wine, slowly turning into grayish brown.
An instant later, the Seventh Young Master's feet touched the ground, his body jumped into the air, and his palms clung to the place where the bottom of the sword was wrapped with cloth.
At this moment, his feet were in the void, and his body was as light as a swallow, as if he was walking on the wind and wandering in the half of the sky above the hill.
That half of the sword, which could not be considered a sword at all, seemed to be reborn in the hands of the Seventh Young Master. The full sword energy almost caused its size to expand several times.
The Seventh Young Master swung his sword wantonly, and sword shadows flew out from the sword bar one after another, scattering all the clouds for several miles in the sky.
The young man stood blankly on the hill, feeling the sharp sword energy falling in front of him, and swallowed subconsciously.
"So strong..."
Xie Xiangcai pondered for a long time before squeezing these two words out of his mouth.
After a while, the Seventh Young Master landed in mid-air and smacked his lips with some unfinished thoughts.
But he said nothing.
The young man frowned slightly, and for a moment he seemed to realize something and raised his head suddenly.
I saw a dark crack suddenly appeared in the air that had been messed up by the Seventh Young Master's sword energy. In the crack, a person covered in blood fell heavily to the ground.
Prime Minister Xie was shocked and followed the Seventh Young Master quickly.
On a sharp rock on the hillside, a "man" wearing a python robe with a high-ranking official on his head was pierced through the chest by a boulder, and blood was flowing down the stone.
The young man frowned. When he saw the other party dressing up, he thought that Lai was the same group of eunuchs who came to take away Concubine Qin a long time ago.
The Seventh Young Master walked forward with a smile on his face, squatted down under the disbelieving gaze of the Ouchi master who was ranked in the top 20 in the martial arts rankings, and slowly put his hands on his neck.
"Last time, there was a bastard who had just entered the Sixth Realm. This time, there is a waste who has only half stepped into the Seventh Realm. Do you look down on my master, or do you look down on me, the Lord of Dongfeng City?"
The eunuch in the python robe said "wuwu ah ah ah" in a high-pitched voice, but he could not utter a complete sentence.
The Seventh Young Master still had a smile on his face. After thinking for a moment, his hand did move away from his neck and slid towards his lower abdomen.
"No, it would be too easy for you to kill you. Tsk tsk, judging from your clothes, you should be Shang Baojian, right? There is a lot of power in the palace? Haha, then there will be many people to offend, right? In this way, I will destroy your martial arts. Do you think it would be interesting to let you go back again?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Seventh Young Master's eyes suddenly turned cold, and his palms fell heavily towards the lower abdomen of the great eunuch.
"Bang——"
Hearing a dull sound, Shang Baojian immediately spit out a large mouthful of blood, his eyes immediately became extremely distracted, and his breath became extremely weak.
Prime Minister Xie let out a long breath, and felt a chill in his heart when he saw the ruthless tactics adopted by the Seventh Senior Brother.
To be able to so easily injure an Ouchi master who was at the half-step Soul Realm, it must be expected that the Seventh Senior Brother's strength must have far surpassed that of Shang Baojian, even far higher than the Seventh Realm!
The young man knew clearly that the seventh senior brother was not much older than himself, but the gap between the two...
Shang Baojian only had one breath left. Seeing this, the Seventh Young Master just wiped the blood on his palms, stood up slowly, stamped his feet, and said lazily in the air, "There is another bastard, come out quickly and kill your boss." Take it away!”
There was silence for a moment in mid-air, and then a figure stepped out of the waves and landed tremblingly in front of Xie Xiangcai and the Seventh Young Master.
The Seventh Young Master pointed with his chin at Shang Baojian, who had his chest pierced by a boulder, "Take it back. Also, if you are really willing, send some experienced guys here. Don't always be like this, you know?" "
The eunuch, who was obviously a junior, nodded his head like a fool. In an instant, with a burst of wind, Shang Baojian disappeared from the back mountain with Shang Baojian on the boulder.
Xie Xiangcai swallowed and took a deep breath.
The Seventh Young Master waved his sleeves, and the boulder and the blood around it disappeared in an instant.
He put the sword stick in his hand between Xie Xiangcai's palm, "Junior brother, although this sword stick is a bit crude, it is still much stronger than the wooden sword of the fifth senior brother. It doesn't hurt to use it to practice your skills."
The young man nodded heavily and clenched half of the sword in his hand.
The Seventh Young Master patted him on the shoulder, "As a swordsman, although the sword is important, the most important thing is to have the sword in your heart and the reason for the sword... Hahahaha, that's all. These obscure Taoist ideals must have been understood by the fifth senior brother. You said it before, I’m not much of a swordsman, so I won’t go into details!”
Xie Xiangcai felt a sigh of relief. Not only was his martial arts talent astonishing, but his swordsmanship, which he claimed to be not good at, was able to reach such a level.
If you can't be called a swordsman in this way, I'm afraid that no one in the world who uses swords can be worthy of the three-foot sword in his hand.
After the Seventh Young Master chatted with Xie Xiangcai for a few words about some matters and methods of using the sword, he lay comfortably on the hill, drinking wine that he didn't know where he came from, and watching the young boy dancing with the sword in his hand. Half of the sword.
This young man, who was only in his mid-twenties, gradually felt drowsy. What emerged in his mind was the scene of him traveling across the world with a sword when he was not much older than his junior brother.
A white horse, a jug of wine, and a long sword.
By the way, there is also the one who likes to tinker and sing by the river, who likes to dress in front of the mirror in the smoke, who likes to hold his arm with a smile and say softly, "Brother Bai, Brother Bai, write me another poem." Young girl.
It's just a pity that the girl stayed at sixteen forever, at the age that should have been the most beautiful.
This Seventh Young Master, who usually seems heartless, this "immortal" who travels through mountains and rivers with an unchanging expression and keeps drinking alcohol, is now blinded by the wind and sand or his nose choked by the strong wine. He is actually... His eyes turned red, and two tears fell down.
two
After the seventh young master drank a bottle of wine, he smacked his tongue and said, "Junior brother, have you ever heard of a saying called 'Reading thousands of volumes, writing like a god'?"
Xie Xiangcai's energy dissipated from his whole body, and the arm that was holding the sword dropped naturally. He looked at the Seventh Young Master and nodded lightly, and then wiped the sweat from his forehead while panting slightly.
The Seventh Young Master stood up, walked forward and grabbed the sword stick from Xie Xiangcai's hand, casually shook his arm, and released a few sword energy.
He looked at the young man and said, "Since you can conquer the world with a sword, swordsmanship is basically indispensable, but a set of excellent swordsmanship is also indispensable. Junior brother, you should watch out next. Senior brother will teach you a set of swordsmanship. A sword technique that falls from the sky. Senior brother only teaches it once, and this sword technique that I can perform will only be used once in this world."
After Xie Xiangcai heard this, he consciously swept back, all the way to the foot of the mountain, leaving enough space for the Seventh Senior Brother.
The Seventh Young Master held the sword at will and stepped forward into the void.
Immediately afterwards, his body rotated with the wind, and his robes were blown by the north wind.
"My sword is like 'flying down three thousand feet', and the sword energy falling from the sky is like 'the Milky Way falling from the nine sky'. Junior brother, keep your eyes open and watch!"
The young man sat cross-legged and upright, his eyes wide open, and he really looked at the white-robed figure floating in the air.
At a certain moment, dark clouds surged in the sky, cutting off all the sunlight in the area where the mountains behind Dongfeng City were located.
In an instant, thunder roared, and streaks of lightning flashed between the dark clouds one after another.
The figure of the Seventh Young Master slowly climbed up to the sky, standing amidst lightning and thunder.
He gently raised the sword in his hand, and for a moment everything was silent, and then countless electric lights poured into the sword, stretching it almost to pieces.
Xie Xiangcai's eyes were full of horror, feeling the almost crazy primary fluctuations in the sky, and the clothes on his back were quietly wet with cold sweat.
He had a hunch that no one in the world could catch this sword except Master.
The Seventh Young Master's face remained as usual, and he waited with bated breath for the moment when the sword in his hand was on the verge of breaking. Then he opened his gently closed eyes, touched the ground with his soles, and his body turned into a blur and disappeared into the dark clouds.
The wind and clouds surged, thunder and lightning disappeared, and the sky seemed to be in a state of disintegration, and the sky and the earth were shaking.
Xie Xiangcai was shocked and turned pale. He instantly stood up from the ground and used all the original power in his martial roots to form an invisible barrier within a few feet of his body.
However, this original barrier, which contained all the energy of the great warriors of the Four Realms, only lasted for three breaths in the oncoming strong wind, and was completely destroyed.
The strong wind swept the young man's entire body into the air, and immediately threw him towards the town behind him.
Xie Xiangcai's body fell into a stall in a mess. He climbed up from the ruins with disheveled hair, apologized to the stunned vendors, and then rushed towards the back mountain in a hurry.
The young man stopped at the foot of the mountain, sweating profusely, feeling thankful that the Seventh Senior Brother had not yet handed out the sword.
He stood there holding his breath. After a while, the clouds that had been silent for a long time finally started to stir like boiling water again.
"Boom——"
Shocking thunder resounded, and a figure broke through the layers of dark clouds and swooped towards the top of the mountain.
In the darkness at this moment, the figure of the Seventh Young Master was wrapped in the sharp sword energy, like a meteor, cutting through the sky wantonly, smashing the space on the top of the mountain into pieces.
There was a low shout, a sword was extended, and everything in the sky was silent.
The situation is changing!
What a sword "flying down three thousand feet, it should be the Milky Way falling into the sky"!
The young man, who was considered to have seen the world, felt his legs weak for a moment, his eyes widened, his ears were ringing, and his hands were trembling.
I almost want to leave first.
In shock, the mountaintop was split into two by this shocking sword energy. When the mountaintop turned into two pieces, the sword bar in the hands of the Seventh Young Master also shattered, and the fragments scattered in all directions, almost destroying the entire mountain. The barrier connecting Tianji to the outside world was shattered.
Hu Jie, who was dozing in the pavilion, felt the movement on the mountain a hundred miles away, opened his eyes with a curse, and came to the territory of Dongfeng City in a flash, and then came to the stiff body in a flash. Only then did Xie Xiang come forward.
He slapped the boy on the back of the head and cursed, "You little bastard, you want to die, and you're still standing here?"
The young man nodded dully and murmured, "Senior Brother Seventh said that I am optimistic about this sword..."
Hu Jie was stunned for a moment, then smiled strangely, no longer rushing to thank the prime minister before leaving, but instead grabbed his arm and headed towards the place where the sword energy was strongest.
"Okay, since you want to see it, then see it for real!"
The two men jumped into the air and rushed towards the sword energy that was still raging on the mountain top.
In the oppressive wind, Xie Xiangcai tried his best to open his eyes wide, and even risked breaking his muscles and bones to reach out his palm and feel the dust in the sword energy.
The dust just scratched the young man's palm, causing his flesh and blood to become bloody.
Xie Xiangcai gritted his teeth and took the initiative to lead Hu Jie to a higher place again.
Hu Jie looked at the blood-covered side face of the young man beside him with some astonishment, and laughed and cursed "little bastard".
Xie Xiangcai finally came to the center of the sword energy, beside the Seventh Young Master.
The Seventh Young Master looked at the young man dripping with blood with a smile on his face. A stream of light came out from his fingertips and entered the young man's body.
"Junior brother, talent is important, but what is more important is courage. You are worthy of this sword!"
The stream of light flowed from Baihui into Xie Xiangcai's mind in an instant, and the sharp sword energy wrapped around the seventh master's spiritual consciousness, presenting this shocking sword in the young man's heart.
At the same time, the scars on Xie Xiangcai's body were slowly being repaired by this divine consciousness.
Hu Jie chuckled, spread out his palms and held them casually. The sword energy in the sky suddenly dissipated. The dark clouds covering the sky disappeared with the dissipation of the sword energy. The sunlight poured down again, and the place that fell on it was already beyond recognition. On the back mountain.
Hu Jie and his two disciples slowly landed outside the back mountain. He curled his lips and looked at the miserable mountain top, and slapped the Seventh Young Master mercilessly on the forehead.
"Noisy! Look what has happened to this back mountain? If your fifth senior brother knew about it, why would he cry, make trouble, and hang himself? Go, go, go back quickly, and lead your junior brother back to rest! Hey, my life is really miserable! You are so old, but you still have to wipe the butts of naughty disciples... Hey, you two are still standing here? Go away, get out of here!"
Prime Minister Xie had just come to his senses. He looked at the sneer-faced Seventh Young Master and scratched his head in confusion.
The Seventh Young Master calmed down his expression, bowed to Hu Jie, and then grabbed his junior brother and headed towards Dongfeng City behind him.
The young man listened to the whistling wind in his ears, but he still had not fully recovered from the sword strike from the Seventh Senior Brother.
The Seventh Young Master smiled and tilted his head and asked, "Junior brother, did you see clearly the sword strike just now?"
The young man was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly, but then sighed and shook his head.
The Seventh Young Master didn't take it seriously and chuckled lightly.
"Junior brother, I believe that in the future you will be even more exciting and stunning than your senior brother."
The young man was stunned, then showed a bright smile.
The Seventh Young Master let out a long breath, and the charming face with two dimples appeared in front of his eyes again.
"It's true that 'what used to be a wave of eyes is now a fountain of tears'...that's all, go back and drink, go back and drink!"
The bodies of the two people in Tianji suddenly accelerated and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
It's snowing again...
