After Qin Mingshuo left, Huang Xin walked out of the Star Palace with a calm expression, as if he had not quarreled with anyone just now.
Ten years of getting along with each other made Gu Xifeng know Huang Xin very well. Although Huang Xin had a strong ability to control his expressions, Gu Xifeng still vaguely caught a hint of relief on his face, which made Gu Xifeng even more uneasy at this critical moment. It's not a good thing to have this expression.
"Huang Xin must have handed something important to Pavilion Master Qin just now, but Pavilion Master Qin didn't want it, otherwise there wouldn't have been a quarrel. What is it that he insisted on handing over at such a critical moment? "Gu Xifeng analyzed it in his heart, but he didn't come to a final conclusion.
"Xifeng, follow me in," Huang Xin said expressionlessly. Gu Xifeng responded and followed Huang Xin into the Star Hall.
There was no difference between the Star Hall and the past. It was still empty. For some reason, Gu Xifeng felt a sense of sadness from it.
The Star Hall is divided into two parts. The inside is the residence of the headmaster. The outside layout is very similar to the Juyi Hall in some cottages, but it is much larger and more imposing.
Huang Xin walked to the back of the hall and found a chair to sit down. He looked a little tired.
Gu Xifeng was standing not far from Huang Xin. Without the master's permission, the disciple could not sit down.
"Xifeng, sit down, I have something to tell you," Huang Xin said, gently rubbing the bridge of his nose. There was a tone in his voice that Gu Xifeng had never felt in him before.
Gu Xifeng did not sit down, but continued to stand respectfully. Huang Xin did not dwell on this matter. He stared at Gu Xifeng and said, "Xifeng, you and Hou Zai have been our teachers for several years."
"Ten years." Gu Xifeng said without thinking.
"It's been ten years in a flash..." Huang Xin sighed first and then stared at Gu Xifeng with burning eyes and said, "What kind of person do you think my teacher is!"
Gu Xifeng hesitated when he heard this and said, "Do you...really want me?"
Huang Xin still looked at him without saying anything. Gu Xifeng knew that he would not be able to escape this disaster.
He pondered for a moment and said: "Master is cunning, dark, shady, and greedy. He uses any means to achieve his goals. He kills enemies decisively and cruelly. He teaches his disciples harshly and without mercy. He lacks respect for his elders and is good at calculations. .”
At this point, Gu Xifeng secretly glanced at Huang Xin, and happened to see Huang Xin's gloomy face, which made Gu Xifeng even more nervous. Huang Xin suddenly said, "Hurry up, or else..." While doing so, Rouge Tears appeared on Huang Xin's side. In the hand, the threat is self-evident.
Gu Xifeng heard the words and said with a smile: "Don't do anything, there is a but!"
"But Master, many of your performances are just disguises. Taking charge of the Seven Kills Battalion has taught me a lot of things. As the commander of the Seven Kills Battalion, Master cannot help himself with many things." Gu Xifeng emphasized the word "but" very hard. It's serious, and his tone also has a hint of respect.
"Putting aside the pretense, Master, although your words and deeds are very unreliable, you are really dedicated to the sect, the Seven Kills Camp, and me and the monkey. I can feel that you truly love the Galaxy Sect and treat it sincerely. For us juniors, from the sect’s point of view, Master, you are a good person!”
Gu Xifeng was a little excited. Now he was worried and couldn't control his emotions very well.
Huang Xin laughed loudly when he heard this and said, "Good man, I didn't expect that I, Huang Xin, could be called a good man."
His smile gradually faded and his face began to darken.
Gu Xifeng watched Huang Xin's expression change and felt confused.
"But the teachings and care I have given you as a teacher over the past ten years are not pure. Don't you even notice this? My dear apprentice, Chu Zhongan!" Huang Xin narrowed his eyes slightly.
Gu Xifeng was a little surprised when he heard Chu Zhongan's words, but he soon recovered as before. He smiled bitterly and said: "After all, I have been in charge of the Seven Kills Battalion for so long, so I naturally know the intelligence capabilities of the Seven Kills Battalion. If Master doesn't know my identity at all, it would be a bit of a fool's dream."
Huang Xin showed a serious expression. He said nothing and still stared at Gu Xifeng quietly.
"It may be difficult to find a person in the vast sea of people, but it is much easier to investigate a person's past when you already know him. If the disciple is not mistaken, the master already knew the disciple's identity when he accepted Monkey and I as disciples. You know your identity?" Gu Xifeng said calmly.
Huang Xin nodded with satisfaction and said: "Yes, when the second son of King Jin'an came to join our Xinghe Sect, it really surprised my teacher and headmaster."
Gu Xifeng was moved by the title of King Jin'an's second son, and he said with a cold expression: "I think the master accepted me as his disciple back then, not because I was gifted with excellence and suitable for assassination, and certainly not because I was smart and attractive."
Huang Xin smiled and said: "It's true that he is smart and attracts people. Assassination talent can only be average. Those things that I am good at as a teacher, Houzai's talent is much better than you."
Gu Xifeng laughed at himself and said: "When I first came into practice, my elders judged me that my sword skills were mediocre. After so many years of use, my sword skills and skills were just average."
"Xifeng, you are excellent both in terms of character and cultivation talent. As long as you choose the right path, it is not difficult to reach the master realm. However, the way of assassination is not suitable for you. Even if you forcefully enter the master realm with stupidity, you will not be able to reach the master realm in the future. It is difficult to move even an inch, and there is absolutely no possibility of entering the realm of transformation."
The conversation between the two became as harmonious as a normal master and apprentice. It seemed that Gu Xifeng's identity did not affect their relationship.
"In this case, what did master want when he accepted me as his disciple? Did he value me as the heir of the prince of Jin'an or did he value my brother who had accumulated strength and devoted himself to restoring the country?" Gu Xifeng's words made the atmosphere tense again.
When Huang Xin heard Gu Xifeng's question, his expression did not change much, and he still said calmly: "If there was no relationship, you wouldn't believe it.
"You guessed it right. After knowing your identity, I discussed with the headmaster to accept you as my disciple. At that time, I just thought that Jin'an would not die like this, and I could use this to form a good relationship with the Jin'an forces. .”
"From the moment we accepted you as a disciple, the sect has already decided that you are the best candidate to be the next leader of the Xinghe Sect's Seven Killing Battalion! Sharing Yingzhou's intelligence network with Jin'an is the sincerity of the Xinghe Sect. !" Huang Xin said very seriously.
"But as a member of the Jin'an royal family, of course you cannot stay in our Xinghe Sect forever and accept you and Hou Zai as disciples at the same time. When you leave, Hou Zai can immediately take up the banner of the Seven Kills Camp. After all, His talent in this area is still above yours."
A smile appeared on Huang Xin's face, as if he was very satisfied with his arrangement.
"You and Houzai have been together for ten years. Do you know his true identity?" Huang Xin said with his trademark evil smile.
Gu Xifeng said expressionlessly: "I know! When we met Monkey, he once told me that his father was a general of the Huben Army in Jin'an. He was dissatisfied with Chu Youshe's rebellion and founded the country, so he chose to flee from home. However, the matter was revealed and nothing happened. Their whole family, father and son, were killed.”
"A few years after they fled to Yingzhou, Monkey's father passed away due to the recurrence of an old injury, leaving Monkey alone to live a difficult life in Zheng, Beidou City."
"Houzai actually told you his life experience just after we met him? The city government is not very good at this. If my teacher's guess is not wrong, you must have not told him your identity!" Huang Xin said with an even stronger smile. His words can't help but have a hint of provoking dissension.
"Knowing my identity will do no good to the monkey. Besides, the monkey and I are as close as brothers, and I will never do anything detrimental to the monkey!" Gu Xifeng said with a trace of anger in his tone.
"Your deep brotherhood is a good thing, both for you and the sect." Huang Xin always smiled, but that smile didn't look very friendly.
Gu Xifeng's face became even more angry as he said, "Does that mean you want to take advantage of the relationship between the monkey and me?"
"It's not about using it, it's just taking advantage of the situation. Just like leaving the two of you alone when we split the Star Pavilion, it can not only temper the two of you, but also deepen your feelings. After all, we are two people. You are a seven or eight-year-old child. In this situation, the only one you can rely on is each other."
Gu Xifeng's expression became increasingly grim. He frowned and said, "Does it mean that the monkey and I get along day and night, so we just follow the trend?"
"We eat and sleep together, we practice together, we suffer together, we call each other our masters together, how can we not have a bad relationship?" Huang Xin's smile had a hint of ridicule.
Gu Xifeng stared at Huang Xin with a livid face and remained silent. He stood there with his fists clenched, his body trembling slightly, as if he was about to attack Huang Xin at any moment.
Huang Xin looked at Gu Xifeng's excitement with amusement. He paused for a moment and then continued: "But after bringing you back from Hongyan Canyon, I discovered an interesting thing. You seem to like that disciple named Tao Muyao. This is also good news for the sect.”
Now Gu Xifeng couldn't bear it any longer. He shouted angrily: "Do you still want to use Tao Zi? What on earth are you going to do?"
"It's just a chat, why get angry? I don't do anything as a teacher. I am very satisfied with the relationship you have now. After you leave the sect to find your brother, as long as the sect controls Tao Muyao, how will it deal with Jin?" It’s not our Galaxy Sect that has the final say over the security forces.”
Huang Xin's expression became more and more public, and in the end his face was full of arrogance.
The way Gu Xifeng looked at Huang Xin was no longer the way he looked at a master. There was only hatred in his eyes.
Taozi and Jin'an were the most untouchable enemies in Gu Xifeng's heart, and Huang Xin was actually detrimental to both of them at the same time. This made Gu Xifeng furious, and his reason was gradually swallowed up by hatred, and his eyes began to turn red. The war-stopping dagger fell from his cuff into Zheng's hand.
With Huang Xin's sharp eyesight, he naturally saw that Gu Xifeng was already holding a sharp weapon, but his expression was very relaxed and he didn't seem to take Gu Xifeng seriously at all.
The battle between master and disciple seems inevitable.
