"..."
"Beasts, those beasts from Hantianmen!"
"How could they do it, you beasts..."
The tongue of the girl with different eyes was obviously cut off with a sharp weapon.
Jiang Wuji took a deep breath, glanced at the Xiaofeng Sect disciples, and asked in a deep voice: "Does any of you know the origin of this girl?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion. After a while, a disciple with first-rate cultivation stood up.
"This girl, I, I know..."
He recalled the past with unbearable expression in his eyes.
"Last year in Mang Zhong, I went down the mountain to buy grain and met a disciple of the Hantian Clan at a grain shop."
"This girl's surname is Lin, her name is Xinyue, she is the daughter of that grain store... I didn't expect..."
"Those disciples praised her for her spiritual energy and said that if they had the opportunity, they would take her up the mountain to be their little junior sister... At that time, she even sent a few more kilograms of food to Han Tianmen..."
The atmosphere became oppressive, almost breathless.
Jiang Wuji rubbed his brows and led Lin Xinyue and others to find another exit.
The wind and snow are misty, and the warm sunshine is spreading on the snowfield. Looking into the distance, the sun is shining on the golden mountains.
"The people from the Hantian Sect should be here soon. The poisonous people will not be brought to light. Your Zuo Guardian asked you not to mention the Xiaofeng Sect in public because he is afraid that you will be implicated."
"After going down the mountain, you will remain anonymous. It is best to leave Jiangzhou and never come back."
The disciples of Xiaofeng Sect could naturally understand Jiang Wuji's words. They didn't say much and went down the mountain after performing a fist-holding ceremony.
It's just that the disciples of Xiao Feng Sect are easy to deal with, but the sword pavilion is difficult.
According to the plan, today was just to recapture the Snow Lotus, to establish prestige, and to prepare for the win over other forces.
It's just a fight between two factions, and Hantianmen won't interfere yet. After all, this kind of thing is very common in the snowfield.
As a result, an avalanche wiped out all the plans for this trip.
Such a large-scale avalanche will definitely arouse Hantianmen's suspicion. When they come, if they can't find Miss Lin, they will definitely look for Jiange.
Therefore, Jiange cannot go back.
It's time to change the plan... Jiang Wuji looked at Shen Heng and said, "Pavilion Master Shen, this is the end of the matter. Let them handle the Hantian Clan's wedding in a few days. Miss Shen, please don't go."
Shen Heng nodded and said: "Of course, now that we have broken our skin, there is no need to pretend."
"I have some friendship with the Wu family, and I played a big role in the assassination of the Queen Mother in Anhua City."
"If you don't mind Pavilion Master Shen, why don't you take Rongrong and all the fellow apprentices down the mountain first and go to the Wu family to avoid the limelight. I think the Wu family will betray my reputation."
Jiang Wuji said very conservatively, but in his heart he was 100% sure that both Wu Ning and the Queen Mother would help with this.
The Wu family is so big that even ten more sword pavilions can accommodate it.
It’s just that when these words are heard by others, their taste changes...
Putting aside the background of the Wu family, the status of the head of state alone is not something that ordinary people can achieve.
A sword holder, a silver sword...how could the Wu family help their sword pavilion avoid the limelight? The relationship between this guy and the Wu family is definitely not as simple as protecting Fengjia with merit...
Shen Heng was poisoned by the cold sky poison and had already put his life and death aside, but so many people in the Jiang Pavilion, as well as his daughter Shen Rongrong, would definitely accept Jiang Wuji's love.
So he clasped his fists and then bent his knees: "Thank you, Mr. Jiang. This kindness can never be repaid by Mr. Shen..."
"Pavilion Master Shen does not need to pay such a courtesy. Today's incident was my idea. No matter what situation is caused, I, Jiang Wuji, will bear the responsibility."
Jiang Wuji helped Shen Heng up with both hands, preventing him from kneeling down.
Your beautiful daughter is still watching from the side. What's wrong with you kneeling down on me at every turn?
"In that case, let's go down the mountain."
Under the leadership of Jiang Wuji, everyone walked down the mountain.
However, on the way, many disciples turned back frequently, their complicated gazes seemed to be able to pass through the wind and snow, and fall on the stone sword that stood tall on the sky and the earth.
Nearing the foot of the mountain, Ji Xinghai suddenly spoke: "Actually, I have always guessed that today's avalanche was the work of the Sao Feng Sect. But at that time, the guardians on the left and right were fighting with us. How did they cause the avalanche?"
Lao Deng, your reaction... No wonder I, Wan'er, was so dumbfounded. It turns out I look exactly like you.
Jiang Wuji explained: "Ding Rui, the leader of the Xiaofeng Sect, is at the pinnacle of insight. He can definitely see an avalanche of this magnitude in Wufeng Mountain. He can rush back in half an hour by pressing his feet, but he has not shown up yet. Obviously , Avalanche is his masterpiece.”
Hearing this, Shen Heng's expression changed slightly: "Has he never considered the safety of the sect disciples?"
Jiang Wuji smiled and said: "I think many of the disciples of Xiaofeng Sect have already thought of this, so they went down the mountain without thinking about it. I didn't mention it at the time, just to leave them in their thoughts. The sect is gone, so it’s better not to kill people and punish people.”
It's just that... Jiang Wuji looked back at Xiafeng Ridge, and seemed to collide with another gaze.
After Ding Rui caused the avalanche, why didn't he take the opportunity to pursue him?
At the same time, Xiafeng Ridge.
"Sect Master...the sect has been destroyed, we..."
The great elder's eyes were a little red. It was not his intention for Xue Liu to destroy the sect, but the poisonous man in the cellar could not be seen by other disciples, let alone discovered by outsiders.
But what he didn't understand was why the sect leader didn't take the opportunity to pursue him, but just watched the disciples go down the mountain and the people from the Jiange left?
The wind is bleak, the snow is withering, and the mountains and rivers are silent in the swaying of the wind and snow.
Ding Rui raised his head and felt the sunshine, the only thing that could make people feel warm in this snowy field.
"Life is like a dream, thousands of mountains are covered with snow, you are nowhere to be seen on the winding mountain roads, and there is a place for horses to walk in the sky above the snow."
"The wind and snow have been weighing on me for several years, so I should have a beginning and an end..."
Opening his eyes and looking at the direction where Jiang Wuji and others were leaving, memories flashed through his mind like a marquee.
Both parents died, and I was all alone. I almost froze to death on cold nights several times...
Eat the wind and drink the dew, climb and fight, and establish a sect in the cold snowy plains...
In the end, it's all empty.
After a while, he made a decision more difficult than triggering an avalanche.
"The elders and disciples of Xiaofeng Sect obey the order!"
The two elders and elite disciples were startled, the swords in their hands tightened slightly, and they were ready to respond to the sect master's pursuit order.
However……
"Everyone go down the mountain and stay away from Jiangzhou. From now on... there will be no Xiaofeng Sect in the world!"
"metropolitan?!"
"Sect Master, you absolutely must not do this!"
"Where does the sect want us to go? The Sao Feng Sect is my home, I...I..."
Ding Rui said nothing more, handed a bag of silver and a few taels of snow lotus to the elder, then turned and left.
…
At the foot of the mountain.
A group of people wearing snow in the wind came outside a wine house.
"Have a bowl of wine to warm yourself up before we go."
"The wine and meat at this restaurant are both good. I came here before going up the mountain. Speaking of which, I thought that I would never return from this trip, so I gave a sword to this restaurant... Huh? This... "
Before he finished speaking, Ji Xinghai's smile suddenly froze.
The wine house was wide open and the wind and snow were raging.
No one returned the sound, no trace was found.
There is only a piece of lees dyed red in the wine vat...
