Staying in this small room deep in the Patriarch Hall, the two of them, immersed in grief, had lost track of time.
But sorrow is sorrow, the dead have passed away, but the living still have to live in this world. After an unknown amount of time, when Xu Huaigu could finally breathe a sigh of relief from his sorrow, he said goodbye to the old man and left the ancestral hall.
Walking out of the gate of the Patriarch's Hall, the bright sunshine that had not been seen for a long time suddenly shone on his and Gu Sanyue's cheeks.
Xu Huaigu raised his head and glanced at the sky. It turned out that it was already noon. The snow has stopped, and today's weather is the bright and sunny day we haven't seen for a long time, which is indeed rare.
Xu Huaigu felt much better, but his steps were still a little heavy, and as soon as they walked out of the gate of the ancestral hall, there was another bad news waiting for them.
Two strangers stood at the door of the New Rain Sect Patriarch Hall. The auras of these two people were very strong, and they were definitely not from the New Rain Sect.
Xu Huaigu immediately stopped, narrowed his eyes, and asked cautiously: "Who are you?" One of them smiled and took a step forward, saying to Xu Huaigu: "Don't worry, fellow Taoist, I'll sign up right away. Come. My name is Duan You, the sect leader of Genshan Sect, and the person next to me is Cui Huai, the elder of Shuiyun Sect." Xu Huaigu looked serious.
I had received information from Qili Mountain before, Duan You was in the eighth realm, and Cui Huai was in the ninth realm. These two people were not easy to mess with.
At this time, the two of them came to find him at the same time, and they were afraid that they were not evil. Xu Huaigu said solemnly: "I have never met you two. I don't know why you came to me." Duan You replied slowly: "Our Genshan Sect has always been the same as the Xinyu Sect. Enmity. These days, the disciples of the Genshan Sect have surrounded the Xinyu Sect and do not allow outsiders to go up and down the mountain. But according to the reports of my disciples, Taoist friends and their disciples insist on going up and down the mountain, and they can't stop them. Therefore, I came here specifically to advise fellow Taoists that it is not easy to cultivate for many years. It is better not to get involved in the muddy waters that you should not wade into." Xu Huaigu said with a cold face: "I have no friendship with the Xinyu Sect, you two Don't worry, I will still protect myself wisely." Duan You stroked his beard and replied with a smile on his face: "Fellow Taoist is indeed a smart man, so this is the best thing." He raised his head and glanced up. The sky is clear and clear, and it shouldn't snow again for a long time.
So he said: "This damn weather is finally over. In order to avoid long nights and many dreams, Elder Cui and I will go up the mountain in person tomorrow afternoon to persuade the Xinyu Sect to surrender. I hope that fellow Taoists will remember what I just said. , please don't go back on your word." Xu Huaigu asked back: "You just told me the plan, and you are not afraid that I will tell it?" Duan You's smile did not diminish, and he said: "What's the difference between telling and not telling? Such a big sect can still Did you run away?" Xu Huaigu sighed, shook his head and said: "It's really shameful that we have to make such a fuss during the Chinese New Year." Duan You said, "It doesn't matter, there are still three days to celebrate the New Year, and we will go up the mountain tomorrow. This It’s time for Genshan Sect disciples and Xinyu Sect disciples to spend the new year together. How nice it would be for everyone to talk and eat together in peace and harmony. Why bother competing with each other on such a cold day?" Duan Youpi couldn't help but smile. He smiled and said to Xu Huaigu: "Fellow Taoist, are you right?" Xu Huaigu sneered and ignored him.
Duan You said: "Since fellow Taoist promised not to interfere, we will take our leave. If fellow Taoist is still on the mountain tomorrow, we will see you then." Xu Huaigu replied: "Slowly go without seeing me off." A flying sword It emerged from between Duan You's eyebrows and landed at his feet.
Duan You stepped up and prepared to leave with his sword. Cui Huai also summoned his own flying sword, but this flying sword did not fall at his feet, but surrounded him.
Xu Huaigu, a book reader, looked at him in confusion. Cui Huai suddenly raised his eyebrows. This flying sword from the Nine Realms Sword Cultivator drew a snow-white arc in the air, and with unparalleled sharp sword intent, it stabbed straight towards Xu Huaigu!
Xu Huaigu was shocked. He thought that the two of them had achieved their goal and it was time to leave. Unexpectedly, Cui Huai suddenly struck him with this sword, which really caught him off guard!
You know, this is the natal flying sword of the Nine Realm Sword Cultivator! If he is willing to use all his strength, it is not impossible to split thousands of mountains and rivers with one sword.
But this sword must have been reserved, but Xu Huaigu still may not be able to block it. Xu Huaigu didn't dare to slack off at all. With a thought in his mind, the Longquan Sword flew out in an instant.
The wisps of sword intent that had been cultivated throughout the body for many years were unreserved at this moment, pouring out like a reservoir that had been accumulated over the years.
As soon as Duan You saw Xu Huaigu's natal flying sword, his expression suddenly changed. He could naturally tell that it was a fine immortal weapon, and he couldn't help but be a little jealous.
But then he also thought that if Xu Huaigu could possess an immortal weapon at this age, his background must not be young.
He became more and more curious about Xu Huaigu's origins. When the two swords collided, Xu Huaigu felt that Cui Huai's sword intention was like a sea. As soon as his own sword intention touched him, it disappeared without a trace like a mud cow entering the sea.
The gap in realm was too big. Although Cui Huai kept his hand, his sword was still much weaker. So when the sword came down, he had to take several steps back before he could barely steady himself.
But Gu Sanyue was not as lucky as him. When the two swords collided, the cold sword intent spread out.
However, she was hurt by the sword intent, and she wailed, then flew back a long way like a kite with its string broken, and hit the ground hard.
She only felt that when the two swords collided, a monstrous force that she could not resist came straight towards her, and there was nowhere to hide.
Therefore, she had no choice but to eat the remaining power of the sword. At this time, her entire body was invaded by the sword intent of the two men.
The sword intent that remained in her skin was cutting her flesh like thousands of small swords.
Gu Sanyue felt like a burning fire, and the pain made her faint instantly. Fortunately, she had a robe of the highest grade to protect her. Otherwise, the remaining power of this sword would have been enough to kill her.
And the New Year's goods she was carrying were naturally shattered into pieces by the sword intent, leaving nothing behind. The sword Cui Huai used was at the peak of the Seventh Realm. When two Seventh Realm sword cultivators fight against each other, even if it is just one sword, even if it is just the residual power, it is indeed not something that a Third Realm martial artist like her can bear.
Gu Sanyue lay on the ground in the distance, silently, as if dead. Xu Huaigu took Cui Huai's unexpected sword blow and turned around anxiously to see Gu Sanyue's miserable state. He was immediately furious and cursed at Cui Huai: "A dignified Nine Realm sword cultivator unexpectedly attacked me, you Shameless!" Cui Huai turned a deaf ear, but said: "You have a very solid foundation and can be regarded as the best in the Seven Realms. Tell me, which sect are you a junior? Maybe we can still have some connections. ." Xu Huaigu's heart was filled with rage and he cursed mercilessly: "It's none of your business! It's you who hurt my apprentice, how can you settle the score!" Cui Huai glanced at the unconscious Gu Sanyue and sneered, He raised his hand, retracted the remaining sword intent in her body, and said casually: "Don't worry, he's not dead. It's not a bad thing for a small third-level martial artist to just suffer a little." Xu Huaigu stared at him with fierce eyes and shook his hand. Clenched his fists.
Veins popped out on his forearms. Seeing that Xu Huaigu was so angry and couldn't continue the conversation, Cui Huai shook his head, put away his flying sword, and left with Duan You and Duan on their swords.
Xu Huaigu watched them leave with gritted teeth, then quickly turned around and ran to Gu Sanyue, squatting down to inspect her.
Gu Sanyue looked terrible. Her face was covered with bright red blood, which was flowing out from her seven orifices.
Several ribs on his chest were broken due to the violent impact, and his right forearm was also broken. In addition, the white robe was also covered in mud and blood.
At first glance, she no longer looked like a living person. But if you look carefully, you can still see her chest rising and falling slightly, and there is still a trace of breath left.
Thanks to her martial arts background, if she had been an ordinary person, her internal organs would have been messed up by the sword intent, and it is not easy for her to be able to hold on until now.
Xu Huaigu's face was full of worry. The biggest difference between a martial artist's injury and a monk's injury is that a martial artist cannot use spiritual energy to repair his body, and can only rely on his skin and flesh to slowly grow back bit by bit.
And since Wu Fu cultivated a breath of Qi in his body, Xu Huaigu could not use his own spiritual energy to save her.
This is why in the palace of Xingqing City, after the eighth-level martial artist was seriously injured, Liang Chen healed him, but instead caused him to fall to the first level.
If Xu Huaigu forcibly used spiritual energy to heal Gu Sanyue's injuries, Gu Sanyue would most likely lose all his realm.
So the only thing he can do now is to give her some healing elixir, and then she can slowly get over it on her own.
Xu Huaigu took out a few good healing elixirs from his sleeves, mixed them with the blood in her mouth, and swallowed them for her.
Then, he gently picked up Gu Sanyue and looked in the direction where Cui Huai and Duan Youyuan were leaving, murderous intent overflowing in his eyes.
Cui Huaiqian should never have hurt Gu Sanyue like this. I didn't want to find enemies at first, but my enemies came to me on their own.
If he could endure this, could he, Xu Huaigu, still be considered Gu Sanyue's master? When he thought of how he, the cheap apprentice he picked up on the road, worked hard, was kind-hearted, and tried to persuade himself when he was angry, Xu Huaigu felt that the anger in his chest was burning even more, and his desire became more and more difficult to calm down.
This revenge must be avenged ruthlessly! Shuiyun Sect, sooner or later, he will have to go one time and ask for an explanation for this matter!
Xu Huaigu thought secretly, but the people from the New Rain Sect over there rushed over again. The movement of the sword here was too great, and then two more people came out with swords. It was impossible not to alarm the people of the New Rain Sect.
The leaders were still Xin Linyuan and Wu Susu, as well as the two elders, followed by several higher-level disciples.
Xu Huaigu turned his face there and glanced lightly. Xin Linyuan rushed up at the head, impatient, and asked directly: "What happened with the sword before? Also, who were the two people who came out with the sword?" Xu Huaigu held the dying Gu Sanyue, Too lazy to pay attention to him.
When Wu Susu saw Gu Sanyue in Xu Huaigu's arms, she immediately turned pale and was so shocked that she could not speak: "Oh my God! Fellow Taoist Xu, how could your disciple be hurt like this? Who harmed her?" Xu Huaigu replied coldly: "Don't you guys already have the answer in your mind? Why do you come to ask me?" Wu Susu asked quickly: "They are from the Genshan Sect, right?" Xu Huaigu said: "They are Duan You and Cui Huai." The Xinyu Sect disciples all had panic expressions on their faces and began to look at each other.
Then, their eyes became incredible again, but they all looked at Xu Huaigu. Wu Susu lowered her head, looking embarrassed, and apologized to Xu Huaigu: "I'm sorry, fellow Taoist Xu, it's us who have caused you trouble." Xu Huaigu was noncommittal.
Xin Linyuan, however, looked unbelieving and asked: "Then the sword before was made by Duan You and was blocked by you? No way, you couldn't block Duan You's sword!" Xu Huaigu She glanced at him, sneered, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Wait!" Wu Susu stopped Xu Huaigu, and said in a sincere tone: "If Xu Daoyou can trust me, I can help you take care of her." Xu Huaigu stopped, turned around, thought for a moment, and then Gu Sanyue handed it to her and said: "Then I'll trouble you, Fellow Daoist Wu. I also ask Fellow Daoist Wu to take care of it personally. I don't trust anyone else." After saying that, Xu Huaigu also glanced at Xinlinyuan.
Xu Huaigu changed direction, heading down the mountain. The rest of the New Rain Sect stopped in place and looked at him blankly.
Xu Huaigu took a few steps and suddenly said: "By the way, Duan You and Cui Huai also said that they will come up the mountain in person tomorrow afternoon. You can all take care of yourself." Xu Huaigu continued to walk down the mountain.
The sunshine on the snowy day was dazzling, and he soon disappeared from everyone's sight. Xu Huaigu thought to himself that he really couldn't live a good life this year.
