Li Changting was really surprised when he saw Su Qingqing interacting with his junior sister, and couldn't help but said: "They say that all the disciples in your peak have weird tempers and are not easy to deal with.
I had no contact with you in the past years, but when I met you today, I feel that you are very different from the rumors. You are all real. "
"Senior Brother Li's words really speak to my heart!"
Li Xiaoliu beamed with joy when he was praised, "Those things in the door are just rumors."
Li Changting showed approval, nodded and said, "Just like my junior brother, most of the bad reputations outside are fabricated.
Don't look at his cold-eyed expression, but he actually treats people with sincerity and sincerity, as if he were an innocent person. "
When Xiang Jianjue heard this, he immediately picked up the wine glass and gave Li Changting a few sips.
Why does this guy want to make friends with everyone he sees? Haven't he learned enough lessons in the past years?
And every time it was said in such a disgusting way, it made him feel uncomfortable all over.
Seeing Xiang Jianjue's embarrassed look, Xiang Shen pursed his lips and smiled to himself.
Li Changting didn't make a mistake, and he really took good care of him. Apart from some rumors, this boy's situation in Yuanjianmai should be good.
"Have you heard? Yesterday the leader of the sword list was the Dongzhou monk."
Suddenly there was a conversation at the next table. The sound was quite loud and attracted the attention of many people around.
The monk at the next table seemed unaware and continued chatting.
"The Dongzhou cultivator won the first prize. This is not something that happens often in recent years. How is it unusual?"
"Hiss... I tell you, this time is different. Lu Yuncheng is a casual cultivator. He visited several sects to recruit disciples and elders one after another with his ranking, but he was rejected by all of them."
"Is this happening?"
"It was also his bad luck. The few disciple-recruiting elders he visited were all people who ostracized and disliked the Dongzhou monks."
"Then what was Lu Yuncheng's reaction?"
"Of course he was angry. He openly said under the sword tower that he will win the first place today. As long as he is here, the Xizhou monks will not be able to get the reward of being the first in the sword list!"
As soon as these words came out, someone on the second floor suddenly sneered, "What a shame! A mere monk from Dongzhou wants to suppress all the monks from Xizhou like us? Do you really think that we have no one in Xizhou?"
"That's right, let's not talk about the distance, let's talk about the Sword Sect disciples who entered the city yesterday.
When the time comes, they really want to see Lu Yuncheng's rampant attitude. The true disciples may not be too lazy to care, but a few of the core disciples below will always stand up and fight for us Xizhou monks. "
"Sword Sect?"
In the seat, a purple-clothed monk sneered, "I feel that the disciples of the Sword Sect can't be counted on."
As soon as this person's words came out, he immediately aroused dissatisfaction among the people around him.
"Fellow Taoist, this sword tower was originally owned by the Sword Sect. Now it is placed in Sword City for us and other monks from the outer sect to practice. It is very impressive!
You came here to borrow a sword tower to practice, and you said you were from the Sword Sect? "
"Fellow Taoist has misunderstood."
The purple-clothed monk quickly apologized, and then sighed: "How could I arrange the Sword Sect's fault? I just heard that Xiang Jianjue is among the disciples of the Sword Sect who came this time."
As soon as these words came out, the entire second floor of the tavern fell silent.
When his name was suddenly mentioned, Xiang Jianjue took a cup of wine in his hand and looked up at the purple-clothed monk with slightly cold eyes.
Li Changting was just enjoying the excitement, but when he heard this, half of the smile on his face instantly faded.
The drunkenness in Su Qingqing's eyes disappeared in the blink of an eye, her brows slightly furrowed.
Li Xiaoliu had the lowest cultivation level. After a few glasses of spirit wine, he was already a little drunk and didn't pay attention to the conversations around him.
At this moment, the atmosphere on the table suddenly became cold and silent. He was stunned for a moment, not knowing why. He was about to ask his junior sister secretly when he saw Xiang Shen looking at her and shaking his head slightly.
Even the junior sister noticed that something was wrong, something big was going to happen!
Li Xiaoliu woke up immediately from drinking.
At this moment, the purple-clothed monk spoke again:
"I heard that Xiang Jianjue has an arrogant personality. Although he has become a member of the Sword Sect, he still misses the Earth God Master in Dongzhou and is reluctant to become another master."
"I've heard about this too."
A middle-aged monk in the seat snorted coldly:
"He's just a hypocritical little person. If he really cares about Master Dongzhou Earth God, why would he move west and join the Sword Sect? Wouldn't it be better to simply stay in Dongzhou and always be with Master?"
"Let me see, the Earth God of Dongzhou is the same as Xiang Jianjue. They are both people who are seeking fame and reputation. The talk about destroying the gods and dividing the temple and seizing the center of the earth was all passed down by the Dongzhou monks themselves. Who knows whether it is true or not?"
"A female cultivator dares to be as famous as Qin Tianque and is known as the number one evildoer in Eastern Continent. She really doesn't know how high the sky is!"
Xiang Jianjue was used to hearing ugly rumors, but when he heard that this group of people even arranged the rumors, his face immediately darkened.
Seeing that something was wrong, Li Changting immediately held down his hand, shook his head slightly with a serious expression, and secretly said:
"They are daring you to show up. Don't fall for it."
Xiang Jianjue took a slight breath, and his face returned to calmness, but the anger in his eyes was not less, but more intense.
Seeing how lively the atmosphere was, the purple-clothed monk knew that the heat was on, so he struck while the iron was hot and sighed:
"Let's not talk about this, let's talk about it now.
Xiang Jianjue defends Dongzhou like this. If Lu Yuncheng is defeated by us Xizhou monks, he will probably stand up.
Regardless of his character, this person is indeed very talented and can be called a genius. If he occupies the top position in the sword ranking, how should we deal with it? "
boom!
As soon as these words were spoken, the impatient monk slammed the table and stood up, cursing angrily.
"A disciple of the Earth God who doesn't know the truth, really thinks he is the leader of Dongzhou? If that's the case, let's go seek the true inheritance of the Sword Sect!"
"That's right! The two true brothers, Liang Haoming and Zhuang Teng, are both Xizhou monks. They will definitely uphold justice for us!"
"Why don't we go visit Jian Zong's annex now?"
The monk in purple greeted him, and many monks immediately stood up and followed him.
However, in the blink of an eye, the second floor of the tavern was mostly empty, with only a few interested people still sitting there, looking thoughtful.
"Let's go, I'm not in the mood to drink this wine anymore."
Li Changting put down his wine glass and then said to Su Qingqing: "Junior sister Su, let's stop here today. How about we make an appointment in the future?"
Su Qingqing nodded lightly, and then said: "Today's incident may be targeted, so please be careful. If there is anything you can do to help, you can find me in that other courtyard."
Su Qingqing said this and pointed in the direction of the other courtyard.
"Private house in another courtyard?"
Li Changting followed the guidance and looked surprised, then smiled and said: "Guifeng is indeed rich."
Su Qingqing smiled when she heard this and did not defend herself.
Li Changting said no more, clasped his fists briefly, and left with Xiang Jianjue.
After seeing the two of them off, Su Qingqing's smile faded slightly and she said in a deep voice, "We'll go back too."
Not long after, the three of them returned to Sumeng Villa.
Li Xiaoliu, who had been holding it in all the way, couldn't help it anymore and said, "Fourth Senior Sister, this matter is obviously aimed at Senior Brother Xiang and involves Dongzhou. I'm afraid it's going to be a lot of trouble. Do we really want to help?"
"Why don't you help?"
Su Qingqing snorted coldly: "There must be Pantheon behind this matter, and I will definitely intervene. If you are afraid, you can live in the Jianzong annex now."
"Fourth Senior Sister, that's not what I meant."
Li Xiaoliu scratched his head, sat down and sighed: "This matter is not easy to solve. The battle for the leader of the sword list, no matter who wins, the monks from the East Continent or the West Continent, will intensify the rift between the East and West Continents, plus the Pantheon They are fanning the flames, how can we stop them?"
"You can actually think of this level?"
Su Qingqing looked slightly surprised, then praised softly: "It's rare."
At this point, her eyes turned and fell on Xiang Shen, who had remained silent all this time: "Junior sister, what do you think?"
Xiang Shen was silent for a moment, then slowly said: "Just wait and see what happens."
Su Qingqing was even more surprised, "What do you mean by this?"
"Senior sister also knows that Xiang Jian will never stand up to the level of persecution today."
Xiang Shen's eyes flickered, "Pantheon must have other means, we might as well wait."
"Little Junior Sister, what you said is true, but the conflict between the two continents is obvious right now."
Li Xiaoliu spread his hands and said, "No matter how much we wait, won't there still be only one person at the top of the sword ranking list?
We can't just go and discuss with the Spirit of the Sword Tower and let it put the Dongzhou and Xizhou monks at the top of the list, right? "
"This method won't work."
Su Qingqing shook her head, "The sword tower was left by the ancestor. The tower spirit is selfless and determined not to break the fairness of the sword list for such a trivial matter."
"I told you a long time ago that this matter is difficult to handle."
Li Xiaoliu rubbed his brows with a headache, "Senior sister, you agreed quickly. When Senior Brother Li comes to ask for help, we should sit on the wax."
"Why are you panicking?"
Su Qingqing looked at Xiang Shen, "Just do what the junior sister said, just wait and see what happens.
I just left a spiritual thought on the purple-clothed monk. If the other party makes any changes, I will know it immediately. "
"That's all it can do."
Li Xiaoliu sighed softly, then looked up at the sky, stood up immediately and said, "The sword tower is about to open. I'm going to meditate to relieve my drunkenness. I'll be back in a moment."
After Li Xiaoliu left, only Xiang Shu and Su Qingqing were left in the courtyard.
Su Qingqing looked at Xiang Shen for a moment, then suddenly remembered something and smiled and said, "What a coincidence, the position you are sitting in is the favorite of my former junior sister."
"Senior sister's former junior sister?"
Xiang Shu's eyes narrowed slightly: "Then now she..."
"It has long since passed away."
Su Qingqing lowered her head, stroked the surface of the stone table with her jade fingers, and said softly: "Because of my arrogance, they all died in the hands of the Pantheon."
"Them?" Xiang Shu keenly captured the key words.
"It's them."
Su Qingqing smiled calmly, with a hint of bitterness in her smile, "There are nine of us, senior sisters, and I am the senior sister."
Is Fourth Senior Sister not going to hide her reincarnation?
Xiang Shen's eyes changed slightly, and when he saw Su Qingqing sighing, he said in a low voice:
"Little sister, I am a reincarnated cultivator. Not only me, but also your third and sixth brothers.
Your second senior brother and fifth senior sister are both divine beasts. The second senior brother is the son of the master of Xuan Palace and has the body of a black turtle. Needless to say, you, the fifth senior sister, are the posthumous sons of the Bifang clan.
On this nameless peak, you are actually the only normal person. "
