"Master was supposed to leave the customs at noon today, but now it's past noon. For some reason, he hasn't left the customs yet." Fan Yichen quickly stepped up to welcome him.
"Could it be that the master's vitality has not recovered since he was injured in the battle with the three-star demon temple last time when he was clearing out the demon temple." After listening to the words of Junior Brother Fan Yichen, Ye Yanran suddenly remembered that half a month ago, when their master Lin Haoran led his people to clear out the demon temple, he and The three-star demon was injured in the fight. I naturally thought of this matter.
At the same time, on the bed in Qingyun Pavilion, a handsome-looking middle-aged man sat cross-legged. He was wearing a light blue robe and a purple gold crown with hair tied on his head. There was a trace of vicissitudes in his face. He has a great sense of righteousness and an outstanding temperament. One look at him and you can tell that he is definitely an extraordinary person. Yes, this person is the owner of Qiu Shui Villa, and he is also the current leader of the Five Righteous Sects Alliance, Lin Haoran!
At this time, he was doing exercises to heal his injuries, no... more accurately, he should be practicing. His eyes were closed tightly, and his whole person had entered a deep trance. Moreover, he had reached the most critical moment at this time. Slowly inhale through the tip of the nose, and then exhale slowly from the mouth. The inhalation is continuous and the exhalation is slight, forming a wonderful cycle. Immediately afterwards, he used his internal energy with both hands to move around in the meridians of his body. Wisps of white air flowed all over his body. The hair on his head also flew gently, and his face was covered with white air. There were big beads of sweat, and his expression was focused and solemn. He remained like this for a short time, when he suddenly felt a strange warmth rising from his dantian. The meridians in all his limbs and bones became sore, and his facial muscles were also distorted. , as the warm current in the Dantian continued to increase step by step, a trickle of water was produced in the meridians everywhere and merged into the Dantian. With the influx of internal energy from everywhere, Lin Haoran's Dantian gradually formed a small The small vortex of true energy rotates slowly, and the speed is getting faster and faster, and the suction force generated by it is also getting bigger and bigger. Just between the few breaths generated by the vortex, the rotation speed has reached an appalling level. In an instant, the internal energy scattered throughout the meridians was swept away by this whirlpool like hundreds of rivers converging into the sea, and wind and residual clouds.
At this time, Lin Haoran had already faintly felt some swelling and pain in his Dantian, as if his internal energy had reached saturation. Lin Haoran was overjoyed when he noticed the situation in his body, but this was by no means a happy time. If he wanted to ensure that he was foolproof and that his skills could successfully break through, he had to grit his teeth, hold back the pain, and suddenly use up all the energy in his Dantian. Disperse!
Chongmai! He is about to break through!
This is the special cultivation method he practiced! First, the power is gathered in one place to form a huge vortex, and then it suddenly disperses, impacting the meridians throughout the body, making it completely unobstructed. Finally, the true energy is swirled back from the meridians everywhere, breaking through in one fell swoop. Bottleneck, make further progress!
...Finally, with his efforts, he succeeded in breaking through. As he made a breakthrough, his consciousness gradually became clearer, and his closed eyes suddenly opened. At the same time, a black light flashed in the dark and deep eyes, but it quickly disappeared.
He was not in a hurry to go out, but was consolidating the results of his cultivation. At this time, he was able to take a break from the busy work and let his consciousness go out. He was clearly aware of all the movements outside. The words spoken by Shen Qianxing and others were transmitted into his sea of consciousness verbatim.
"In case the master really has to be released from seclusion a few days later, it will be a small matter if the disciples of the three major sects make noises, but it will be a big deal if people are killed one after another." Shen Qianxing said in a deep voice. There was a slightly worried look on his face.
Shen Qianxing's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on the hearts of the other three companions. The joy and joy of seeing their relatives on the faces of Song Wanxi and others suddenly disappeared, and turned into deep worries and sorrows. !
Seeing this, Fan Yichen knew that something must have happened, so he looked at his senior brother, his eyes widened suddenly, and asked loudly: "Senior brother, what happened?"
Song Wanxi told his junior brother everything about what happened when they went down the mountain. Especially the "inner demon" killing people!
————————————————————————
In the reception room of Qiushui Villa, people from the three major sects of Tianshan Sect, Xuanzhen Temple and Ba Dao Sect were sitting one after another. In front of them, Xu Tianfu, the general manager of Qiushui Villa, said with a smile: "The Yunwu Tea of our village is famous far and wide. , it can relieve heat and stimulate body fluids, and it tastes great, so please enjoy it!"
One of the disciples of the Ba Dao Sect looked sulky and said, "I've had several cups of this tea, why is Alliance Leader Lin still unwilling to come out to see us?" This man's name is Chen Dadao, and he is a disciple of the leader of the Ba Dao Sect. He was furious since he entered Qiushui Villa. Because he didn't see Lin Haoran, the owner of Qiushui Villa after he came in. He naturally thought that the people of Qiushui Villa were treating him lightly, and as a person in the world, this was what he valued most. In addition, his master Qin Shangwu's uncle was killed for no reason, and the real culprit has not been found to this day. The mood can be said to be terrible!
Xu Tianfu said: "Actually, our village owner has some important things to deal with."
"Is there anything more important than the death of so many people from our faction!?" Chen Dadao continued to ask.
Another disciple of Xuanzhenguan said: "I'm afraid that Leader Lin didn't bother to come out to see us when he saw that our leader hadn't arrived yet!"
"Everyone, please be patient. We at Qiushui Villa will not sit idly by and ignore what happens to your sects." A Qiushui Villa disciple named Yu Wanfei said kindly. After all, we are all members of the same family, and harmony should be the most important thing!
"Yes, we will handle it properly." A female disciple next to Yu Wanfei agreed. These two people were the two people who were following Manager Xu just now.
"...We are impatient to wait!" As soon as Chen Dadao finished speaking, he flicked his big hand heavily, and the teacup on the table fell. Just when it was about to fall to the ground, a long sword came out of nowhere. End caught it. Chen Dadao turned around and saw a woman with peerless appearance standing in front of him. Chen Dadao recognized this woman. She was Ye Yanran, who was known as "Sinking Fish and Luoyan" from the "Four Elites of Qiu Shui"!
I saw Ye Yanran walking slowly in front of General Manager Xu Tianfu, gently handing the tea cup to General Manager Xu, and then made a graceful movement of sheathing the sword, and then she leisurely turned to look at Chen Dadao: "If If the tea doesn’t suit your taste, you can get another cup.”
"We are not here today to drink your tea, we are here to see Alliance Leader Lin!" Chen Dadao said sternly.
Song Wanxi: "To be honest, my master is practicing in seclusion, so I can't meet you. Please forgive me!"
"You are making excuses for business at one moment, and for seclusion at another. In my opinion, you at Qiushui Villa are simply trying to push us away. Leader Lin doesn't even bother to see us!" Another disciple of Xuanzhen Guan also agreed. The tone was full of bad intentions.
Yu Wanfei continued: "You two, please don't say that. Everyone should listen to our explanation calmly."
At this moment, Lin Yuqing also came here. She took a few steps forward and said seriously: "Our alliance of the five major sects of the righteous path, Tianshan Sect, Ba Daomen, Xuanzhen Temple, Zhongxintang and Qiushui Villa, headed by our Villa, has been with us for many years. When the devil fights to the death, I, Qiushui Villa, have never been afraid to shrink back, and how can I make excuses to this day?!"
"If you still regard us as one of your own, please inform Alliance Leader Lin as soon as possible." Chen Dadao said immediately.
Shen Qianxing: "My master is indeed in retreat, we must not disturb his old man!"
He focused his gaze and said in a deep voice: "Since Alliance Leader Lin refuses to come out to see us, then we will rush in to see him." After saying that, he rushed inside aggressively. At this time, Lin Yuqing's impulsive temper had already been suppressed. Unable to bear it, she swept her body and was in front of Chen Dadao in an instant, blocking his way forward. Seeing this, Chen Dadao simply trembled with her without saying a word, but after all, his martial arts was low, so he couldn't. After a few rounds, he was at a disadvantage and simply drew out his sword. Lin Yuqing saw that he had used his weapon, so he was not willing to be outdone and drew out his sword. At this time, Song Wanxi only heard Song Wanxi say: "Calm down, everyone." Point, the sword has no eyes... Junior sister, be careful!" The junior sister he spoke of was naturally Lin Yuqing.
The other people in the living room who were watching the theater on the side saw that they had used weapons, so they responded one after another. On this side, the disciples of Qiushui Villa saw that the situation was out of control, and at the same time, the entire living room was on tenterhooks, and there was a threat at any time. The possibility of a bloody battle.
At this moment, a majestic yet extremely gentle air flow suddenly struck, knocking all the disciples of the three sects who rushed forward to the ground. He just put them down to the ground, but they were not injured. Obviously, the person who took action was very measured. Everyone was knocked to the ground by this vast and deep internal force, and they were still in a state of confusion for a while, until a few days ago. After taking a breath, they realized what they were doing and stood up one after another to look in one direction. When the people in Qiushui Villa on this side came out with this inner force, they looked back one after another, and then they couldn't help but show joy on their faces. This person is none other than Lin Haoran, the owner of Qiushui Villa!
On the other side, the people of these three factions, including the most arrogant and active Chen Dadao, all fell silent instantly when they saw that the person coming was Lin Haoran, with a look of awe on their faces unconsciously. Everyone was honest, no one dared to say a word, and you could hear a needle drop in the living room, it was extremely quiet! Everyone couldn't help but lower their heads, not daring to look directly at him.
I saw Lin Haoran slowly walking over, first taking a deep look at them, then turning to look at his disciples, and said solemnly: "Is this how your master usually teaches you to entertain guests?" At this time, everyone in Qiushui Villa also turned their eyes elsewhere, not daring to look into his eyes.
After Lin Haoran finished speaking, he slowly turned around and faced the three disciples on this side.
Lin Haoran said sternly: "We, the five major sects of the Righteous Way, are in the same spirit, and we are brothers and sisters. This time, three of the five masters sent by the Righteous Way were assassinated by the Demonic Way. I was very sad and guilty when I found out. What I am sad about is that three of them were assassinated by the Demonic Way. The masters were killed. What I feel guilty about is that I failed to fulfill my duty to protect them. However, I can assure you that even if it costs my life, Lin Haoran, I will definitely find the real culprit and give an explanation to all my comrades. ."
……………………
In Qingyun Pavilion, Lin Haoran called in his four proud disciples, the "Four Elites of Qiu Shui" and Yu Wanfei.
Lin Haoran said: "At this point, I might as well tell you that Mu Yunzhi, Qin Shangwu, and Yang Sufei are indeed the representatives of the righteous path who are about to participate in the [Battle to Seize the Seal]."
As soon as these words came out, everyone present was shocked.
Although Shen Qianxing had already had a premonition, he was still surprised when he suddenly heard this. He paused, the shock on his face still not completely receding: "So, our inference is completely correct, the murderer is... Kill all our representatives who participated in the [Battle to Seize the Seal]."
Ye Yanran asked curiously: "Master, who are the other two people?"
"One is Meng Zhiqiu from Zhongxin Hall," Lin Haoran said, walking slowly to Song Wanxi: "The other one is you Wanxi."
Song Wanxi: "...!!??"
Shen Qianxing: "In this case, wouldn't Senior Brother and Senior Meng Zhiqiu be in danger?!"
Lin Haoran looked sideways at Shen Qianxing and Yu Wanfei: "Qianxing, Wanfei, you two take a few more disciples down the mountain, find Meng Zhiqiu as soon as possible, and then escort him to Qiushui Villa immediately."
"Yes, master!" Shen Qianxing and Yu Wanfei responded.
"Yanran, Yuqing, you two stay in the villa and must entertain the allies who come one after another."
Lin Yuqing stepped forward and said quietly: "Dad, I want to kill that 'inner demon' with my own hands. You'd better let me go down the mountain with Second Senior Brother and the others!"
Lin Haoran sighed slightly: "The 'inner demon' you call is mysterious and has weird martial arts. Even I don't understand it well. Besides, we are in the dark and he is in the dark. If he acts rashly, I'm afraid we will suffer a big loss." ; The most important thing now is to save people to ensure that our [battle to seize the seal] can proceed smoothly. This is the top priority. As for capturing the 'inner demon', this is only the second priority."
"Yes..." Ye Yanran heard the words and said yes. Although Lin Yuqing was unwilling, she didn't speak, so she knew what she meant.
Lin Haoran turned to look at Song Wanxi: "Wanxi, since you are among the combatants, you may be in danger. Please stay in the villa to avoid any complications."
Song Wanxi did not comment, but then he changed his voice: "But as the eldest disciple of Qiushui Villa, even if there is danger, my junior brothers and sisters should not be responsible for these things, while I am hiding in the Villa. Nothing can be done, so master, I still want to go down the mountain with Qianxing and the others. If I really encounter a murderous attack, it will prove that my skills are inferior to others. Even if I can fight in the [Battle for the Seal], it will be a narrow escape, with little chance of death. Besides, I have countless martial arts skills at Qiu Shui Villa, so there must be someone who can take my place. Wan Xi does not want to be an irresponsible person, and by acting like this, I am not worthy of being the eldest disciple of Qiu Shui Villa, your apprentice!"
Lin Haoran looked at his serious look and smiled knowingly with relief: "Since you insist so much, well, you can go down the mountain with Qian Xing!"
Song Wanxi, Shen Qianxing and others handed over their hands: "Yes, I will obey the master's orders!"
Then, several people took their orders and left.
