There has long been a rumor that King Wu Qin Huan admired Zhao Nianshuang, his junior uncle in Tianxuan Mountain.
Even though things in Prince Wu's palace were extremely busy, he still came to this southern border every now and then to discuss the art of swordsmanship with Zhao Nianshuang from Qingque Peak.
But what everyone knows is that King Wu does not use swords, or in other words, he does not specialize in swordsmanship, and he has never shown any special interest in swordsmanship before.
Naturally, outsiders noticed something strange.
In addition, although King Wu is a very popular minister, he has never been married, and Zhao Nianshuang is not only talented but also beautiful.
As the two got closer, it was inevitable that some rumors would spread among the public.
Chu Qingxiao naturally heard some such gossip.
But he didn't take it to heart, and at this moment, when Qin Huan said these words himself, those rumors were undoubtedly confirmed, and he couldn't help but frown and froze in place.
Of course, Meng Jin also knew more or less about the relationship between Chu Qingxiao and Zhao Nianshuang from Chu Zhaozhao and Song Qingqing.
The two were childhood sweethearts, and they seemed to have been in love since childhood. They were just a step away from a life-long private relationship, and they only had to pierce the last layer of window paper.
Chu Qingxiao stayed in Tianxuan City for so long just to meet Zhao Nianshuang.
Thinking of this, Meng Jin looked at Chu Qingxiao with worry.
She asked herself, if she encountered such a situation, she would probably be particularly sad.
After Qin Huan said this, he stared at Chu Qingxiao with an intriguing look, as if he was expecting Chu Qingxiao's reaction to this matter.
Chu Qingxiao was indeed stunned.
Some gloomy emotions popped up in his mind at that moment.
He felt as if he had been betrayed and deceived.
This is not fair!
He sent her out of Wuling City, and she promised that she would wait for him.
But it’s only been twelve years!
She has really changed her mind!
Such thoughts suddenly appeared in Chu Qingxiao's mind, and his mind seemed to be affected by such thoughts, becoming violent and angry. Although with such an emotional change, his eyes suddenly became dark.
But in just a moment, Chu Qingxiao suppressed such thoughts.
This is not right.
This is not what he should be thinking.
He had to admit that he did like Zhao Nianshuang once.
And because of the twelve years of eternal night reincarnation, to her, that love still seems to have happened yesterday, so clear that she can touch it.
But when he decided to leave Wuling City and come to Tianxuan Mountain, he warned himself more than once.
To him, these twelve years are like a blink of an eye, but to others, it is a real twelve years. He cannot ask others to remain unchanged during these twelve years.
Naturally, this also includes Zhao Nianshuang.
In their eyes, they should have died in Wuling City long ago.
There is no reason for Zhao Nianshuang to live a life of pure desire for a dead man.
Chu Qingxiao also hoped from the bottom of his heart that she could start over.
Chu Qingxiao's thoughts came from the bottom of his heart.
But for some reason, when King Wu said those words in front of him, a burst of hatred that even he himself found terrifying surged out of his heart uncontrollably.
He quickly suppressed such emotions, and the darkness in his eyes completely dissipated the moment he stabilized his mind, and he regained his clarity.
Chu Qingxiao was not aware of such changes in himself, nor did he notice that Qin Huan, who had witnessed this series of changes, had a faint look of disappointment on his face.
"Your Highness King Wu, Nian Shuang is not a commodity, and she does not belong to anyone."
"King Wu cannot reward her to me, and it is also impossible for me to control her."
"She has her own choice." Chu Qingxiao stabilized his mind and said so at that time.
Qin Huan's face showed a strange color.
If someone else talks to him like this, he will probably think that the other person is saying something pretentious to attract him.
But he understood very well that Chu Qingxiao's words came from the heart.
He couldn't help but take another look at Chu Qingxiao: "You are indeed a good guy. It's no wonder that Nian Shuang has been thinking about you for so many years."
When he said this, Chu Qingxiao didn't realize that he was there.
On the contrary, Meng Jin on the side secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Listening to Qin Huan's tone, it seemed that what he just said was just to test Chu Qingxiao, and it seemed that the relationship between him and Zhao Nianshuang had not reached that point.
Even she herself didn't realize that she seemed to be more nervous about this matter than Chu Qingxiao.
After Qin Huan said these words, it seemed that he no longer lingered on the topic related to Zhao Nianshuang.
He started walking towards the mountain road again, and Chu Qingxiao and Meng Jin could only hurry up to follow.
"Although you don't say it, I always have clear rewards and punishments for my work. If I don't give you some rewards today, my reputation will be ruined when word spreads." Qin Huan in front of him mentioned the old things again seriously.
Chu Qingxiao frowned slightly, but before he could speak, he heard Qin Huan speak again.
"How about this."
"I see that you are traveling with that Nangong girl. I think you must also know the Sword Ancestor who is making a big fuss on Tianxuan Mountain at the moment."
"In this case, I will reward you with a promise."
"Promise?" Chu Qingxiao looked puzzled.
"What promise did His Highness make?"
"How about a promise that I will spare his life no matter what kind of trouble that sword ancestor causes later?" Qin Huan turned around at this moment, squinted his eyes, and looked at Chu Qingxiao with a smile and asked.
As soon as these words came out, Chu Qingxiao and Meng Jin were both stunned.
Of course, they also knew that what Meng Ziliang did on this trip was extremely dangerous, but they had some hope in their hearts that he could survive today's disaster.
But what Qin Huan said at this moment seems to have finalized the matter.
The underlying meaning behind his words was clearly to tell Chu Qingxiao and the others that today, Meng Ziliang's final fate would definitely be miserable.
It was so miserable that being able to spare his life was already a special reward.
Chu Qingxiao's heart sank. He finally plucked up the courage to look at Qin Huan and asked the first question after they met.
"His Royal Highness King Wu, can you tell us what exactly Brother Meng is going to do?"
"Since he is the reincarnation of the Sword Ancestor, why does he have to be the enemy of Tianxuan Mountain?"
Meng Jin on the side became even more confused after Qin Huan said those words. When he heard Chu Qingxiao's question, he quickly looked at Qin Huan expectantly.
Although it seemed that Qin Huan was not on Meng Ziliang's side, Meng Jin could only seek medical treatment in a hurry, hoping to learn some of the truth from Qin Huan's mouth.
After all, it was better than anything else. She didn't understand what was going on at this moment and could only secretly be worried. Even if she wanted to protect Meng Ziliang with all her life, she couldn't do anything.
Qin Huan stopped, but did not answer Chu Qingxiao's question. Instead, he looked up and said, "If you want to know what happened, just see for yourself."
Chu Qingxiao and Meng Jin were stunned. At this moment, they looked up at the top of the mountain road. It turned out that they had reached Tianchi Cliff unknowingly.
At this moment, several figures familiar to Chu Qingxiao were fighting with Mu Nanshan. They were all masters of swordsmanship, and their cultivation levels had also reached the ninth level. After exerting all their strength, the sword intent rolled across the mountain road, and the scene was very frightening.
Even though they were more than ten feet apart, Chu Qingxiao and Meng Jin were still frightened by the aftermath when both sides met.
But several big shots here were fighting to the death and drawing blood, but Meng Ziliang seemed to be in peace, with his back to them, one hand behind his back, and the other hand stretched out, with his fingertips The sword intent surged, slowly carving horizontal and vertical strokes on the cliff of that day...
