These sixteen words may not sound like much to someone who doesn't know the reason behind them.
But all the peak masters present frowned, with worried looks on their faces.
Duan Peng also frowned, his intuition was that what would happen was so serious.
Ye Wuhen slowly said: "I really didn't expect that the deputy landlord of Xinghuo Tower actually penetrated Taibai, but we didn't notice anything before."
When faced with whether the All-Martial Arts Association would send spies to infiltrate the sect, Taibai naturally took it very seriously.
There is an inspection hall in the side hall of the outer courtyard, which is responsible for investigating the spies of the All-Martial Arts Association.
The inspection hall is lurking in each peak and in the outer courtyard, responsible for observing all disciples to see if there are any abnormalities.
Although Gu Xiaotian also understood that Li Mu was dead and could not be saved even if the gods came, he was still extremely sad and could not calm down for a long time.
Yun Hanxing looked heartbroken, but couldn't say a word.
If she wanted to teach Gu Xiaotian some of the strongest sword moves in the world, she would have them at her fingertips.
But she has no experience in persuading people.
After all, she has always been known for her sharp tongue.
Ye Wuhen sat gently next to Gu Xiaotian, looking at the sky, "Since you have chosen this path, you have already given your life to the King of Hell."
"Many people think that as long as they practice martial arts, they can make great achievements in the world. But they just think that they have the protection of the sect and have never seen the real world. Maybe today you are still because of killing You are complacent about being a strong person, but your life may be lost in the hands of another person tomorrow."
"Everything is life and death. Li Mu is willing to sacrifice his life for you. You should carry his legacy forward and help him see the world."
Gu Xiaotian raised his head, with tears still hanging from the corners of his eyes, but he had held back his crying.
Ye Wuhen smiled slightly at Gu Xiaotian, "You have done very well in the past few months of training in the outer courtyard. After burying Li Mu's body, go back to Wuhen Cliff."
Gu Xiaotian nodded, picked up Li Mu's body, and waited for the big eagle to land in the sky.
Meng Jingshi walked towards Duan Peng. This usually stern old man was smiling, "Duan Peng, are you willing to join me at Yubaofeng?"
This was undoubtedly an olive branch to Duan Peng, but the other peak masters had no intention of accepting Duan Peng as their disciples, so they all silently accepted Duan Peng as a favor.
Duan Peng was still hesitating, but Meng Jingshi said anxiously: "I have a lot of books in Yubaofeng. If you become my disciple, you can read at will on the first three floors of Yubaofeng."
The Imperial Treasure Bookstore is the largest bookstore in Taibai, with millions of books in it. If you are lucky enough to read it, it will definitely improve your martial arts significantly.
But it also needs to be divided into people. For Duan Peng, he has read a lot of books over the years, and just the first three floors of the Imperial Treasure Book Pavilion cannot satisfy him.
Duan Peng looked at Meng Jingshi and asked, "I want to break through to the realm of martial madness, are you willing to help me?"
Meng Jingshi immediately understood that the Imperial Treasure Book Pavilion was indeed not attractive to Duan Peng. He also knew that the "Confucian Immortal Way" passed down from generation to generation in the Duan Peng family was waiting for him here.
He appreciates smart people, because Meng Jingshi is also a smart person.
Meng Jingshi replied: "That's natural. Although my strength is not the top among all the peak masters, if we compare the attainments in martial arts, these five people combined are not as good as me."
He also pointed at the five people and exaggerated himself infinitely in his words, saying that Yun Hanxing could only act on his own initiative, Wu Kong was a sloppy ghost, Tong Wuqi was immature, Xiao Chaoci only knew how to plant flowers and protect grass, and as for Ye Wuhen, that was A hands-off shopkeeper.
Duan Peng nodded slightly and immediately knelt down on one leg, "Master, please bow to me, my disciple."
Meng Jingshi quickly helped Duan Peng up. He couldn't hide his smile at all. He was extremely happy at this moment.
Huang Shengjie was still lying on the ground. Although he was briefly treated by Tong Wuqi, it would take at least half a month to recover from his injuries.
Yun Hanxing stepped forward and picked up Huang Shengjie, "I will take this man away directly."
Tong Wuqi also wanted to persuade Yun Hanxing that Huang Shengjie was seriously injured and wanted to take him back to Xuandan Peak for treatment, but Yun Hanxing turned him away with a look.
"I will take care of my own disciples myself."
There were several sounds in the sky, and the big eagle arrived as promised.
Everyone sat on the big eagle and returned to their respective peaks.
Zhuang Ya was also taken away by Tong Wuqi. After all, she was still from Taibai.
As for Bai Jing's five-person group, Ye Wuhen informed Dugu Rong to come and arrest them and imprison them in the dungeon of the outer courtyard. After all, these people had expressed their loyalty to Bai Jing, so they would naturally receive the punishment they deserve.
In a sense, they are no longer Taibai people, but members of the All-Martial Arts Association.
However, considering that they were once disciples of Taibai, if they were thrown directly down the mountain, they would be killed by the killers of the All Martial Arts Association within half a day.
There are only two outcomes for people who help the All-Martial Arts Association.
One is alive and one is dead.
...
After everyone left the forest, Gu Xiaotian returned to the outer courtyard first and walked towards the tenth house.
Naturally, the people in Shiwu didn't know what happened in the battle at the peak. After all, they were not like those peak masters who could see the sky with their hands and eyes.
When everyone in the Ten Houses saw Gu Xiaotian coming back holding Li Mu's body, everyone looked sad.
Three days ago, Li Mu was still bragging in the house, "If I can enter Wufeng, I will ensure that you follow me to eat well and drink spicy food."
But now, there is a separation between heaven and man.
Everyone in Shiwu made arrangements for Li Mu's funeral and buried him in the backyard of Shiwu.
Li Mu was a member of Shiwu when he was alive, so he naturally had to be buried in Shiwu.
The soul returns home.
After burying Li Mu, everyone returned to the house, but no one spoke.
Gu Xiaotian wanted to stand up and say a few words many times, but when the words came to his lips, he swallowed them back.
The disciple who reported the news to Gu Xiaotian spoke first: "Brother Gu, I know you don't belong here."
After saying that, the person next to him glared at him, and he immediately knew that he had said the wrong thing, and quickly explained: "No, Brother Gu, I mean you should have higher achievements, and you shouldn't be entrenched in our little town. Small ten houses.”
Gu Xiaotian smiled bitterly, "I'm here today to say goodbye to everyone. I will go back to Wuhen Cliff tomorrow."
Everyone immediately put on happy faces.
"Congratulations, Brother Gu."
"Brother Gu, don't forget us when you return to Wuhen Cliff."
But the reluctance and sadness on their faces were not concealed, especially their eyes.
The disciple who tipped off the news still had tears in his eyes, but he still forced a smile on his face and said complimentary words.
Gu Xiaotian couldn't bear to say goodbye, but he finally decided to be cruel.
Because he has more important things.
He wanted to help Li Mu go to Jianghu to have a look.
He wants to help Li Mu kill Bai Jing and avenge him!
Gu Xiaotian did not stay in Shiwu for long, and left Shiwu amidst everyone's compliments and reluctance.
This trip to the outer courtyard also came to an end.
A few days later.
The punishment for Zhuang Ya and the five disciples was announced.
Zhuang Ya Nian is still a disciple of Taibai, but he is only in solitary confinement for one month and his cultivation resources are cut off for one month.
And those five disciples were permanently forced into Taibai Dungeon.
Everyone had already guessed this result and didn’t say much.
...
On the traceless cliff.
It has been several days since Gu Xiaotian came back, but Gu Xiaotian has been doing nothing these days, Ye Wuhen has been missing all day long, and his two senior sisters and senior brothers don't know where they are enjoying themselves.
Gu Xiaotian was bored fishing by the lake in Wuhenya, but after fishing for a long time, no fish was willing to bite the hook.
Gu Xiaotian was so angry that he took off all his clothes on the spot and jumped directly into the lake to catch fish. However, after diving in, he discovered that there was no fish in the lake at all.
I don’t know what Hao Hao was fishing for when he sat by this lake.
Just when I was thinking about Hao Hao, Hao Hao came back.
When Hao Hao saw Gu Xiaotian, he was surprised and happy. He quickly stepped forward to comfort him and asked, "Xiaotian, why are you back?"
"When the battle to enter the peak is over, I will naturally come back, and the experience in the outer courtyard is also over."
Hao Hao slapped his forehead, remembered something, took out three copper coins from his pocket and said: "Xiaotian, your grandfather sends money every month, but senior brother, I am busy with a big business recently, so I don't want to come." The outer courtyard came to disturb your quiet life, so I made my own decisions without your consent. The business is doing well, so you should keep these three copper coins first and regard them as this month's dividends."
Gu Xiaotian looked at Hao Hao with disdain. He already knew that his grandfather sent money every month, and his grandfather doted on him so much. It is conceivable that the monthly money would not be a small amount. .
Not to mention that these three copper coins are his dividends this month, Gu Xiaotian's pocket money alone started from 30,000 copper coins when he went out for fun before!
However, Gu Xiaotian still took the copper coin and said thank you, because he still had something to ask Hao Hao.
"Senior Brother Hao, do you know the Xinghuo Tower of the All Martial Arts Association?"
When the All-Martial Arts Association was mentioned, Hao Hao, who had a playful smile at first, immediately changed his face and became serious.
His fists were clenched so tightly that his nails were digging into his flesh, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent!
Perhaps he remembered what he had done before, and after a long time, Hao Hao spoke first: "I know, the Quanwu Association has a total of six floors and twelve halls, and the Xinghuo Building is one of these six floors."
"And above the sixth floor, there are seven military leaders. There is very little information about these seven military leaders. Even the departments of the Tiandi Alliance that are best at detecting intelligence have not caught these seven military leaders. Shadow, I just know that these seven military leaders have been sitting in that position for a long time."
"Compared to the military leaders, the sixth floor performs its own duties, but it makes the entire martial arts association run smoothly. However, no one knows about their hideout on the sixth floor."
"The Xinghuo Building is responsible for intelligence and infiltration. I also heard that Bai Jing is the deputy owner of the Xinghuo Building. To be honest, I really regret not killing Bai Jing."
"More than ten years ago, there was turmoil in the world. Dozens of organizations such as the All-Martial Arts Association sprung up like mushrooms after a rain. The court could not cope with it and had to cooperate with the Tiandi Alliance and various sects to eliminate these organizations. On the way, that Dozens of organizations have indeed been eliminated, but only the All-Martial Arts Association has remained. The reason is very simple. Big fish cannot be killed, only small shrimps are killed. Deputy posters like Bai Jing have been killed more than ten years ago. It’s a dead end, but for the Quanwuhui, it’s just a matter of choosing a deputy landlord, so don’t take it too easy.”
"In short, the All-Martial Arts Association has always been a mysterious existence. Everyone knows that they want to overthrow the imperial court and establish themselves as kings, but everyone has no way to deal with this organization. They can only suppress them as much as possible and reduce their power. "
Hao Hao finished speaking in one breath, and when he got emotional, he punched the door frame and made a big hole in the door frame.
Gu Xiaotian also lowered his eyes. He had no contact with the Quanwuhui at all, and he didn't know what he was facing until today.
Fortunately, Hao Hao quickly came to his senses, "Xiaotian, we practice martial arts not only to conquer the world, but also to bring peace and prosperity to the world. If you really hate the Quanwuhui, don't do it from today on." Stop, and only when you reach a higher level will you be qualified to stand up and fight against them."
Gu Xiaotian nodded, a wave of hot blood burning in his body.
In the past, he just wanted to win every battle in the outer courtyard. Now, he has made great ambitions to defeat the All Martial Arts Association!
The two of them started practicing on the spot without saying a word.
Hao Hao put on a smile again and said, "Come, let my senior brother test how you are doing in the outer courtyard."
Gu Xiaotian clasped his fists and smiled, "The sword has no eyes, senior brother is so offended!"
"Good boy, if you can touch me, I will tell you."
The discussion was very fierce, but it was just what Gu Xiaotian thought.
He tried his best, but couldn't touch Hao Hao at all. Hao Hao laughed loudly, took out the wine gourd from his waist and took a few sips.
Gu Xiaotian swept his sword, and Hao Hao jumped up and stood on the sword, "I have the power, but the speed and accuracy are still not enough, and the control of the true energy is not good enough. It needs to be like this."
After saying that, Hao Hao lightly touched the blade of the sword with his toes, and the edgeless sword immediately began to vibrate violently.
Gu Xiaotian wanted to hold Wu Feng steady, but found that the shock was getting stronger and stronger, making his hands numb from the shock.
Gu Xiaotian gritted his teeth and stabilized all his energy on the sword, and then the vibration of the sword slowly stopped.
Hao Hao took another sip of wine, his eyes shining, "Not bad, not bad, but I kind of underestimated you, I'm looking at this trick."
After speaking, Hao Hao threw his wine gourd towards Gu Xiaotian.
Gu Xiaotian put Wu Feng in front of him and caught it with all his strength. However, he found that for some reason, this ordinary wine gourd was as hard as iron and could not be cut. The wine gourd even had a force to collide with him. Inadvertently, his feet moved back a little.
Finally, Gu Xiaotian couldn't hold on anymore, and the edgeless sword "clanged" and fell to the ground.
Gu Xiaotian was panting, but Hao Hao opposite him had a calm face, not even a drop of sweat.
Hao Hao walked forward, grabbed the wine gourd on the ground and drank a few sips happily, "You're good, kid. Do you know how many people in Taibai can take my first move?"
Gu Xiaotian shook his head, saying that he didn't know either.
Hao Hao chuckled, "If you don't count the headmaster and those peak masters, it's about this number."
As he spoke, he raised two fingers.
