Seeing that the only one who ran out of the martial arts arena and caught up with him was the disciple who was called Senior Brother Qi by Zhang Liang, the face of the disciple called Senior Brother Shen instantly darkened a lot.
"Qi An!, what do you think about Mu Shaoyang bringing back an outsider?"
"Senior Brother Shen! I grew up in the sect, and the sect is my home. He, Mu Shaoyang, is an outsider. Now that he has obtained the Bronze Order, he will become an official disciple of the shouzi generation. I Naturally, I feel unwilling to do so."
Hearing this, Senior Brother Shen secretly rejoiced, but said in a serious tone: "Junior Brother Qi'an, don't worry, you and I have grown up together and are brothers. I, Shen Quan, will definitely not let him take away your spot as an official disciple. Let’s go.”
"Thank you, senior brother!"
"Let's go. I, Shen Quan, am curious about what kind of woman Mu Shaoyang brings back!"
…
Mu Shaoyang brought An Ruoxi to a courtyard, pointed to the courtyard and said, "This is where ordinary disciples live. There are many rooms in the Luoxia Sect, and there are not too many disciples. They usually have one room per person."
While speaking, he secretly observed An Ruoxi's expression and saw that she was a little unnatural. Mu Shaoyang had a rough guess and said deliberately:
"Miss An, you can stay in any room you want. I'll show you the room."
An Ruoxi felt a little embarrassed, "Mr. Mu, I..."
Seeing the way she hesitated to speak, Mu Shaoyang became more sure of his suspicion.
"I will take you to a place where Miss An will be very satisfied!"
Knowing that the other party finally understood her worries, An Ruoxi breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll trouble you."
So the two of them walked towards the outside of the courtyard wall. When they arrived outside the courtyard, Mu Shaoyang pointed not far away, "Did you see that wooden house in the mountain?"
When An Ruoxi heard the words, she looked over and saw a small wooden house in the middle of the mountain not far away, looming in the clouds and mist. With just one glance, An Ruoxi knew that it must be the place she wanted.
Sure enough, when I took a closer look, I found that the wooden house was quite big, and it seemed to have several rooms. And the lush green surrounding the wooden house is so comfortable and peaceful. The gurgling stream on the side, the sound of flowing spring and the tranquility of the wooden house form a wonderful harmony, making people feel like they are in a fairyland on earth.
"How about it?"
"This place is so beautiful. Whose residence is this?" As he said this, he couldn't put it down and caressed the bamboo furniture in the house.
Seeing An Ruoxi's unconcealable liking, Mu Shaoyang was also inexplicably happy and proud, "I used to stay here for two days from time to time, but from now on, this is your place to live."
"ah?"
Seeing An Ruoxi's surprised expression, Mu Shaoyang showed a sincere smile, "No need to be surprised, no need to refuse, I'm serious. I don't live here often, and I am free when I am free, as long as you don't dislike it. ."
An Ruoxi looked at the man in ancient costume sitting in front of him, holding a teapot and drinking. He was so cool and calm in every move, and An Ruoxi was inexplicably fascinated. He is indeed good-looking, capable, and has a good personality.
But in the next second, An Ruoxi woke up from her random thoughts and said, "Thank you! Thank you from the bottom of my heart. I'll give you tea instead of wine!"
Hearing this, Mu Shaoyang's heart skipped a beat. He felt like a thief with a guilty conscience, and was a little embarrassed. "Actually, I didn't do anything."
"Didn't you successfully bring me into Luoxia Sect?"
"Ah!" Facing An Ruoxi who suddenly smiled and said this after sitting down and taking a sip of tea, Mu Shaoyang was a little at a loss. He didn't know whether she was joking to tease him or serious. It seemed that she felt There is something in An Ruoxi's words. Seeing her looking at him with interest, she actually felt a little flustered, but I didn't know whether it was because of a guilty conscience or because of nervousness.
He didn't dare to move, perhaps because he was afraid of exposing some flaws, or perhaps because he was afraid of missing something. Perhaps it was because An Ruoxi was not afraid to look into his eyes, and as a man in his thirties, he was not afraid to look into the eyes of a woman.
But ask yourself, Mu Shaoyang thinks An Ruoxi is pretty, and it's good to look at her like this. He just didn't expect that he would actually appreciate this woman he had only been in contact with for less than a day.
However, in the words of Mu Shaoyang later, An Ruoxi did not have the youthfulness of a young girl, nor the promiscuity of a mature woman. She combined the advantages of women of both ages to derive a unique charm. The charm is too attractive for a man of his age.
Suddenly, Mu Shaoyang frowned, "Someone is coming!"
When An Ruoxi came to her senses, Mu Shaoyang had already stood up and stepped over the threshold, quickly put down his cup and followed him out.
"Please stop!"
Just as An Ruoxi was about to step out of the threshold, she heard Mu Shaoyang say this. She thought she was talking about herself and quickly stepped back. But when he looked up, he realized that Mu Shaoyang was pointing at the two people outside the yard. They were all dressed as disciples of the Luoxia Sect, and they all held a sword in their hands. They were Shen Quan and Qi An. They also saw An Ruoxi who was about to come out.
Mu Shaoyang also noticed that Shen Quan and Qi An were staring at An Ruoxi, and quickly interrupted, "Two senior brothers came uninvited so early in the morning. Is there something wrong?"
"Oh, Junior Brother Mu misunderstood. We saw that Junior Brother Mu didn't go to morning practice, so we came here to see him." Shen Quan laughed and quickly pushed Qi An, who was in a daze.
As the saying goes, don't hit the smiling person. When Mu Shaoyang saw the two of them acting like this, he had no choice but to treat them politely. "The two senior brothers are very thoughtful. Junior brother, I am flattered!"
"What are you talking about? Senior brother comes to see junior brother. Isn't this normal?"
Faced with Shen Quan's hypocrisy, Mu Shaoyang knew that it was probably because they saw An Ruoxi, and decided not to be too lazy to let it go, "Oh, it's rare, Senior Brother Shen, have you and Senior Brother Qi changed your gender? Thinking of coming to see me? It stands to reason that the two senior brothers love me so much, so I should be grateful. But my place is too simple and I don’t even have a place to sit, let alone anything to entertain, so the two senior brothers still invite me. Come back!"
When Mu Shaoyang spoke, Shen Quan and Qi An looked towards An Ruoxi again, but the latter shrank back and they did not see him. Although the two of them just looked at each other, Mu Shaoyang had seen everything.
"Junior Brother Mu, what you say is unreasonable. Senior brother heard that you went down the mountain all night last night and came back this morning. You must have encountered something good. Don't you plan to share it with me, junior brother?"
Mu Shaoyang couldn't help but find it funny after hearing this. Shen Quan Qi'an had never been able to get along with him, and he often caused stumbling blocks for him. At this time, he shamelessly used this reason for coming here. It seemed that he wanted to find out something about her.
Thinking of this, Mu Shaoyang smiled and said directly: "Senior Brother Shen, you see, although I am your junior brother, there is no need to share everything with you, senior brother, right?"
"What are you talking about? Senior Brother Shen wants you to share because he is looking down on you!"
Facing Qi An who suddenly interrupted, Mu Shaoyang smiled disdainfully, "Senior Brother Qi An, no one will think you are mute if you don't speak."
"you……"
Shen Quan raised his hand to interrupt what Qi An was about to say. His face was obviously darkened, "Junior Brother Mu, we are just caring about you here. Is it inappropriate for you to treat us with such words?"
"Senior Brother Shen, you and I are both understanding people. It's really difficult for you. I have refused like this, and senior brother can still hold it back? Is the arrogance and arrogance of senior brother in the past all just an act?"
Hearing this, Shen Quan's face finally darkened, "Since Junior Brother Mu is toasting and refusing to eat, then don't blame us for not thinking about our friendship."
"That's right, Senior Brother Shen, just get straight to the point of what you want to do. Why bother to be hypocritical and pretentious, right? I almost thought that Senior Brother Shen's conscience was discovered."
Shen Quan almost stopped having a seizure, "Junior Brother Mu, I had no intention of arguing with you this early in the morning, but you are so arrogant and arrogant that you don't take the law enforcement team seriously at all. You are indeed arrogant and arrogant!"
"Senior Brother Shen, it's okay to go out early in the morning without brushing your teeth, but don't slap me with such a big label!"
Shen Quan sneered, "Junior Brother Mu is really a very brave man. He just got the Bronze Order, but he didn't even report it to the law enforcement team, and he went down the mountain to bring back someone at night. In this way, the location of the sect is revealed to the outside world. We As a member of the sect's law enforcement team, you refused to cooperate during routine inquiries and even verbally attacked me. Doesn't this mean you don't take the law enforcement team seriously?"
Seeing Shen Quan reveal his true colors, Mu Shaoyang no longer wanted to waste too much time on him, "It is not Senior Brother Shen's turn to worry about whether I report to the sect's law enforcement team or obtain permission from the law enforcement team!"
"Insolent! Mu Shaoyang, we are members of the law enforcement team and have the right to monitor all behaviors of sect disciples. We now suspect that there is something wrong with the people you brought back, and we need to conduct routine inspections!"
When Mu Shaoyang heard Qi An's words, an unknown fire arose in his heart, and he directly replied: "You suspect that there is something wrong with the people I brought back? Who gave you the courage? The Bronze Order was personally authorized by the three deacons and elders. , Senior Brother Qi, you are just a member of the law enforcement team, you are not qualified to question it!"
"you……!"
Qi'an was obviously a little angry at Mu Shaoyang's reply, so he wanted to move forward to argue.
"Senior Brother Qi'an! I advise you not to test my patience, Junior Brother!"
Mu Shaoyang's words made Qi An hesitate for a moment, but he still didn't want to lose his momentum. "Arrogant! What if I insist on testing it?"
As he spoke, he took another step forward.
"Try one more step forward!"
Qi'an was about to lift his feet when he heard Mu Shaoyang shout "Liuhe", and then a sound broke through the air. An Ruoxi clearly felt a strong wind passing by her side. I saw an afterimage flying into the sky before my eyes, and in an instant it fell from the sky again, carrying a strong wind and rushing directly towards the ground.
Qi An raised his head and glanced upward, then immediately took two steps back. And as soon as he stepped back, a sword floated just one step forward from where he had been standing.
"Mu Shaoyang, you...!" Before Qi An could finish speaking, Shen Quan reached out to block his body that was about to rush forward.
Seeing Qi An's angry look, Mu Shaoyang smiled contemptuously, and saw him grabbing it with his left hand, and the sword that was originally suspended in mid-air flew into his hand in an instant.
"Senior Brother Shen keeps a low profile and doesn't want to argue with me. It seems that there are smart people in the law enforcement team. If they are all as ignorant as Senior Brother Qi, the reputation of the law enforcement team will be difficult to protect."
"Junior Brother Mu, I admit that you are stronger than us, but don't be too proud! If it weren't for the sect's prohibition on private fighting, what do you think you can do to the two of us with your 'Liuhe' sword"? "
When Mu Shaoyang heard this, he secretly thought that Shen Quan was not stupid. He knew that none of them was my opponent. He wanted to use provocation to get me and him to the ring because he felt that I was definitely no match for him and me. In that case, let him do whatever he wants!
Then he pointed his sword at the two of them and smiled contemptuously, "If I can do anything to you, you will know if you try it. Junior brother is just afraid that the two senior brothers will not dare to teach you something."
"Arrogant! I want to see what you, the eighth-grade Martial King, can do to me?"
After Qi An said this, he drew his sword and stood up. He circulated his inner energy, took three steps, jumped up, drew his sword and struck at Mu Shaoyang.
Before the person arrives, the energy arrives first. Mu Shaoyang sensed Qi An's true energy coming a foot in front of him, and saw that he just put down his left hand holding the sword, and raised his right hand seemingly casually, and a red barrier appeared out of thin air, just in line with Qi An's cyan The sword energy collided together.
An Ruoxi was surprised when she saw that the energy of these two colors actually appeared in a substantial form. This live experience is much more realistic than the special effects on TV before.
And now Shen Quan on the side was shocked when he saw that Mu Shaoyang seemed to be able to block Qi An's sword with his Qi condensed barrier without doing anything.
"Didn't Mu Shaoyang get promoted to the eighth-level Martial King just last month? How come his internal energy has improved so much?"
Qi'an, who was fighting against him, was also in a difficult position and was in trouble.
"What's going on? Why does it feel like no matter how hard I try, I'm like a mud cow sinking into the sea and never comes back? He obviously didn't do anything, why can't I even break through his Qi barrier?"
Mu Shaoyang also saw Qi An's thankless look. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waved his hand. Qi An flew backwards like a deflated balloon. Shen Quan quickly caught him.
"How's it going, brothers, do you want to continue?"
Although Mu Shaoyang said it with a smile, just because he said it with a smile, anyone else would think that he was provocative and a bit sarcastic.
But Shen Quan and Qi An didn't mind this anymore, especially Qi An. Although he only faced Mu Shaoyang for one round, he didn't have the confidence to fight again.
But Shen Quan was thinking about another thing at this time, and he didn't care whether Mu Shaoyang was provoking or sarcasm.
"Why don't you two senior brothers speak? If you have nothing else to say, please two senior brothers please come back."
After the two left, An Ruoxi came out of the room and asked, "Who were those two people just now? Why do I feel like I don't get along with you?"
"It's not a feeling, it's just that they didn't fit in. Counting the time, it's been almost ten years."
"Ten years? Doesn't that mean that they have disliked you since you entered the Luoxia Sect?"
When Mu Shaoyang heard this sentence, "They have disliked you since you entered the Luoxia Sect," he felt a little sad in his heart, "Yes, it is true that they have disliked me since you entered the Luoxia Sect. "
"Can you talk to me?"
Looking at An Ruoxi's sincere eyes, Mu Shaoyang felt a little strange, and then nodded in an awkward manner.
