"Greetings to Senior Lu and Senior Fang."
Gu Shengchao did not shy away from this in front of everyone. He prostrated himself on the ground and kowtowed to Lu Chuan and Fang Xingdan.
"Master, uncle, you are here." Ding Ying also stepped forward to salute, with tears in her eyes and a pitiful look.
Fang Xingdan held Ding Ying's hand and said distressedly: "You are wronged when we are not here."
Lu Chuan waved his sleeves lightly, and Gu Shengchao was lifted up by a force and stood firmly on the spot.
"There is no need to be polite between you and me. I am also happy that you can come to save the girl." Lu Chuan was quite satisfied with Gu Shengchao's performance.
Ding Ying turned around and pointed at Song Yangshu, the master of Qixingya Kaiyang Peak, and Fang Xingdan complained: "She was the one who injured me in our perfume shop, took away my soft whip, and put me in the prison on Qixingya. It was dark, hungry, frightened, and suffered a lot."
"Uncle Song, this is your fault. Even if my disciple makes a mistake, I should deal with it. What's more, Ding Ying is not wrong. It's disrespectful for you to bully a small one like this." Fang Xingdan teased.
Song Yangshu, however, jumped over the wall and shouted loudly: "Don't call me uncle, you are no longer a Qixingya disciple. A wild man like you is not worthy of being my Qixingya disciple."
"Snapped!"
An afterimage passed by and returned to where Lu Chuan was standing.
Song Yangshu received a slap on the face, and her cheek suddenly swelled. She opened her mouth to curse, but two teeth fell out.
He said out of breath: "You, you..."
Seeing Lu Chuan's gloomy face, she finally restrained herself from cursing.
Lu Chuan snorted coldly: "If you dare to curse, I will take action. Let's see who of us is afraid of whom?"
Song Yangshu covered his red and swollen face and hesitated, finally not daring to speak again.
Seeing that her old sister who had been with her for many years was being bullied, the leader Jin Yangyi could not turn a blind eye. She raised her sword and pointed at Lu Chuan and said: "Letting the tiger return to the mountain will cause trouble in the future. It seems that we made a big mistake in sparing your life back then."
"cut."
Lu Chuan curled his lips disdainfully and said: "Don't pretend to be a good person here. Back then, I didn't steal or rob. It was you who deceived me and then destroyed my Dantian and broke my legs. You have no shame, but you are justified." ”
"Bloody words."
Jin Yang interrupted Lu Chuan, "Since you are ungrateful, do you dare to compete with our Seven Star Sword Formation again?"
"It's easy to defeat you, how about bringing some luck?" Lu Chuan put forward a condition.
Jin Yangyi readily agreed: "Okay, you say."
Standing with his hands behind his hands, Lu Chuan glanced at the people at Qixing Cliff and said word by word: "If I break your Seven Star Sword Formation within ten moves, I will be polite to all of us in the future and cannot embarrass any of us."
"Then what if you can't break our sword formation within ten moves?" Jin Yangyi didn't believe he could do it.
Stretching out his good leg, Lu Chuan said solemnly: "You guys break my leg too. I, Lu Chuan, will stick to my word and will never make a joke."
"Okay, I'll let you die clearly tonight."
Jin Yang gave the order: "Form up a formation."
Song Yangshu was the first to bear the brunt and jumped over. Lu Chuan knocked out two of her teeth. She was already so angry that her teeth were itching and she wanted to eat him alive.
The rest of the people guarded Jin Yangyi, and she said coldly: "Show your weapons, don't spread the word that we are bullying the small."
"You can't kill a chicken with a bull's-eye knife, I'll use this."
Lu Chuan's right thumb pressed on his ring finger and little finger, and only extended his index and middle fingers.
Point to the sword.
Jin Yang couldn't keep his face.
The Seven Star Sword Formation is the most precious treasure of Qixing Cliff and will only be used in critical moments. However, the other party is so careless and does not even use the sword, which is a great insult to Qixing Cliff.
Lu Chuan waited for them to form a sword formation, and without saying a word, he flew up and jumped towards Jin Yang, putting his two fingers together and pointing at her forehead.
Jin Yang was secretly happy, swung his sword to resist, and at the same time activated the sword formation at the Tianquan position to trap him in it.
Seeing that he was approaching, Lu Chuan made a feint and twisted his body in the air to strike at Ji Xingfei, who was at Yu Heng's position.
Although the pointing sword is short and seemingly useless, the sword energy it releases cannot be underestimated. The sword energy is so sharp that it can scare the opponent.
Lu Chuan turned around suddenly. Ji Xingfei was about to help Jin Yangyi sneak attack from behind, but he instantly became the target. In panic, he hurriedly swung his sword to defend himself.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Chuan disappeared and stabbed Song Yangshu in Kaiyang's position with his sword.
Song Yangshu had suffered a loss just now and was determined to kill Lu Chuan. His eyes were on fire and he was holding out his sword to die with him.
Lu Chuan faced Song Yangshu, and Li Yangyan at Tianji's position and Miao Weiqing at Tianxuan's position behind him were responsible for the surprise attack.
Gu Shengchao could see clearly from the side, and then he understood why he almost died in the sword formation.
In the Seven-Star Sword Formation, no matter which position one attacks, there are always at least two people behind him assisting in attack and defense. This makes one unable to consider both the front and the rear, causing confusion in the position.
Not so with Lu Chuan. His erratic figure made it impossible for anyone to catch him, and he couldn't be sure where he was. Whether it is a front-facing defense or a person assisting the attack and defense from behind, since no one can be found, coordination cannot be formed, and the power of the sword array is greatly reduced.
Everyone saw that Lu Chuan and Song Yangshu were about to fight to the death. He moved forward and in an instant he reached Miao Weiqing where Tianxuan was.
Song Yangshu tried his best, but his sword failed. Miao Weiqing was not prepared, Lu Chuan was already in front of him.
In a panic, Miao Weiqing stabbed out his sword hesitantly.
The sword was thrust out, but no one was seen. Lu Chuan had already arrived at Tianshu's position.
Lu Chuan's movements were erratic. The leader, Jin Yangyi, couldn't keep up with his rhythm. He hesitated in activating the formation, and the rest of the group also lost their way in following.
Tianshu was located at the end of the formation and suffered the most. In the chaos, Zhou Xingyu lost his position and was occupied by Lu Chuan.
As a result, everyone's attack target became Zhou Xingyu, and the formation was immediately in chaos.
Leader Jin Yang repeatedly tried to activate the formation but to no avail. Lu Chuan waved his palm and knocked out Miao Weiqing beside him. Li Yangyan was at a loss and was trying to find her position.
Lu Chuan took a quick step and rushed in front of Jin Yangyi.
As soon as Jin Yang lifted up the sword, his wrist was cut by Lu Chuan's palm, and the sword fell to the ground.
"Snapped!"
The dignified leader of Qixingya received a slap on the face, and Lu Chuan returned to Fang Xingdan's side.
"you you……"
Jin Yang pointed at Lu Chuan, but he was speechless in anger.
She lost all face, her dantian was disordered, her chest was swollen, and she couldn't adjust her breath. She spurted out a mouthful of blood, felt the world spinning, and then fell down.
"Head!"
"Master, wake up quickly!"
"Master, what's wrong with you!"
Everyone was struggling to carry Jin Yang away, but Ding Ying called out to them: "Wait, my soft whip is here, give it back to me."
"Here you go." Song Yangshu angrily threw down the soft whip and carried the leader back to Qixing Cliff with the others. No one cared about Lu Chuan and the others anymore.
Lu Chuan helplessly shook his head: "Don't be stunned, let's go back too."
They each rode a horse, and Gu Shengchao drove the carriage and drove Ding Ying and Wan Yanxi back to the perfume shop.
Their clothes were soaked in the spring water. Fang Xingdan helped them take a bath, found clean clothes and put them aside, and then returned to the main room.
Under the lamp, Gu Shengchao was telling Wan Yan Xi's experience and how the emperor ordered him to go to the West Cold Country on official business and escort her back to her grandfather's old house.
"That's fine. As a human being, you have to have a beginning and an end, and you can't give up halfway." Lu Chuan approved.
Gu Shengchao took out the imperial edict: "The two seniors have made great contributions in helping the emperor ascend the throne. This is the imperial edict that allows you to open a perfume shop anywhere. Please keep it for later use."
"This is the imperial edict. I have never seen it before." Fang Xingdan accepted the imperial edict and watched it with joy.
"What are your next steps?" Lu Chuan asked him.
After pouring tea for the two seniors respectively, Gu Shengchao sat down and said: "After sending Yan Xi to Xileng Kingdom to settle down, I will contact Baixian Village to complete the emperor's instructions as soon as possible. I originally thought of taking Ding with me. Ying is going with her, but her leg is injured, so it seems she won’t be able to go.”
"As long as you have her in your heart, I, as both a master and a mother, will definitely take good care of her, so you don't have to worry about her." Fang Xingdan said with a smile.
Seeing that Gu Shengchao seemed to have something on his mind, Lu Chuan said softly: "You have something else, but it doesn't matter if you say it."
"this……"
Gu Shengchao didn't want to say anything at first, but finally asked: "Miss Ding Ying is not weak in martial arts. I find that there seems to be no progress recently. I don't know why?"
Lu Chuan nodded: "Assuming that you have a conscience and can detect this, to be honest, it has something to do with you."
"Is it related to me?" Gu Shengchao was puzzled.
Fang Xingdan sighed and said: "You also know that this girl has fallen in love with you at first sight. When we left without saying goodbye in the valley, we were worried that she would be trapped by love and wanted her to break free. Who would have thought that things would go against your wishes and you would still meet in the capital? , but there was another Liu Ximei, which made her heartbroken, and she fell seriously ill after leaving the capital. "
"Later we opened this perfume store, and the girl felt better, but since then, her Dantian seemed to be damaged and could never recover. Brother Lu and I tried our best to make no progress, so we were delayed. "
Hearing this, Gu Shengchao also felt guilty. He thought for a while and told Lu Chuan about the three incomplete Feng Wu sword skills he saw on the Snake Island in the Four Kings Valley, and then said: "In order to detoxify the Hun Wang Danqun, Disciple also accidentally learned the method of retrograde meridians. How about I stay here for a few more days and discuss kung fu with Ding Ying? Let’s try it as a living horse.”
"That's fine. To untie the bell, you still have to tie the bell!" Fang Xingdan was satisfied.
But Lu Chuan thought of something: "What else did you find on Snake Island?"
Gu Shengchao understood what Lu Chuan was thinking, so he told Lu Chuan all about what he and Wan Ruo had seen making a big kite in the sky above Snake Island, and how Qiu Mandrill in the Four Kings Valley taught the "Nine Heavens Blue Falling Palm" heart method and formula.
Lu Chuan pondered: "At that time, Qiu Xiao and I guessed that these were man-made, but we didn't know that they were left by the successor of Feng Wu Sword Technique. In this way, we underestimated Feng Wu Qiuhuang Sword Technique."
