There was a long queue in front of a small restaurant on the noisy street.
"I heard that the food cooked by this chef is really good. I didn't get in line yesterday, so I have to try it today."
One person said to the person behind him.
In the restaurant, Ating and Wu Yijian were busy.
"It's coming! It's coming! Don't worry. The store went to restock today, and the manpower is really tight. We are all acquaintances, please be patient." Ating explained while busy.
The crowd at the door of the restaurant suddenly became restless!
Ating also turned around and saw that everyone was looking at a man and a woman standing in the back.
After seeing the woman's appearance clearly, Ating actually stuttered.
"Xin Jin Ge!"
The visitor turned out to be Xin Jinge from the Xin family.
But few of them knew the man next to Xin Jinge.
Although Xin Jinge was watched by everyone, he remained silent and as cold as ice. The man on the side spoke eagerly.
"Senior sister, the sect will give us one day. Are you sure we want to keep queuing here?"
Xin Jinge thought for a moment and explained his situation to Ating.
"Brother, the two of us will rush back to Jianzong soon. Yesterday, my junior brother heard that the food in your restaurant is extraordinary, so I came here to taste it today, but... our time is really limited. I don't know... Can you let me and the two of you jump in line... All the expenses today will be paid by my family."
Xin Jinge said a little embarrassed.
Ating felt a little embarrassed when he heard the request made by the beautiful person in front of him.
"Fairy Jin Ge, if it were normal, I would treat you well when you came. However, everyone who comes to my restaurant also looks up to me. How about... I first ask the previous guests for their opinions."
Ating asked the guests one by one for their opinions. When the guests who were a little dissatisfied heard the words "Xinjia pays the bill", they immediately agreed.
Xin Jinge and Xin Jinge found their seats and started chatting while waiting for the food.
"Xiaoxuan, who have returned to the sect recently?" Xin Jinge looked at the man in front of him with a pair of beautiful eyes, his eyes full of solemnity.
The man named Xiaoxuan shook his head helplessly.
"Some senior brothers have come back one after another, but of the Five Swords, only Senior Sister Yu is in the sect! I don't know what the senior brothers and the others think!"
After hearing this, Xin Jinge began to think, and Ating came over with a fish.
"Fairy, please use it slowly..." Ating did not dare to look directly at Xin Jinge and left quickly.
"It seems that senior sister's charm is not that great. Let's try this dish first to see if it is as amazing as the rumors say!"
The man picked up a piece of fish, put it in his mouth and chewed it repeatedly, his eyes shining brightly.
"Wonderful! Senior sister, please try it quickly."
According to the strength of the two people in the spirit realm, even if they don't eat, they can maintain their peak state by just absorbing spiritual energy. Today's fish not only tastes extremely delicious, but also seems to have a much stronger affinity for spiritual energy.
Xin Jinge also put a piece of fish meat into his mouth. Immediately, the anxious mood calmed down.
"It seems that this time, it really wasn't in vain. This cook is a genius. Bringing him back to the sect is a great achievement." The man said excitedly towards Xin Jinge.
Xin Jinge indeed had this intention, but he still had to discuss it with Ating. After all, he is taking away someone else's chef, and few shopkeepers would be willing to do so.
Xin Jinge knew that this was not an opportunity for communication. I had no choice but to wait until evening to discuss it again, then put down thirty high-grade spiritual stones and left first.
As soon as Xin Jinge went out, he met Lu Fengchen who was returning from purchasing goods. The two of them crossed each other for just a moment, but they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts.
"Master!" Lu Fengchen pretended to glance at Xin Jinge casually, but he was extremely shocked. Xin Jinge's strength even surpassed that of Zhao Yu before.
"A familiar scent, like that person!" Xin Jinge closed her beautiful eyes tightly, and a figure appeared in her mind.
Xin Jinge didn't stop because of the shock in his heart, he just felt that this restaurant was becoming more and more interesting.
Lu Fengchen didn't come to think about it anymore. When he saw that the restaurant was as busy as yesterday, he joined in to help.
The three of them worked until night.
"How's it going, Ating, your income today is pretty good!" Wu Yijian wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with a smile on his face.
At this point, Ating also smiled.
"It's much better than yesterday, but today the Xin family has taken over the restaurant. Thirty high-grade spiritual stones are equivalent to 30,000 medium-grade spiritual stones."
Lu Fengchen wiped the table without saying a word.
"Bang! Bang! Bang!" A knock on the door reached the ears of the three of them.
"Sorry, the shop is closed today." Ating said to the door.
"It's me, the store owner. Xin Jia Xin Jin Ge." A female voice came from outside the door.
Hearing that the person coming was Xin Jinge, Ating quickly opened the door and invited the person in, but he was still puzzled.
"Fairy, my house is indeed closed at night, and the food bill has been paid by Fairy. I wonder what happened to Fairy?"
Xin Jinge and his junior brother explained their intention.
"Shopkeeper, I am here to ask for something from you! I wonder if you can bear the pain and give me the chef? The spiritual stone is not a problem!"
"Ah?" Ating was a little confused. He had been making trouble for a long time because he was here to recruit a cook.
"This... you're asking me? Isn't that right? Shouldn't you ask Lao Wu?" Ating pointed at Wu Yijian.
"Me?" Wu Yijian became confused.
"Brother Wu, the fairy is asking me if I can give you to her... But, you are only here temporarily, so shouldn't I ask you?" Ating explained.
"Brother, don't panic. My senior sister is the Five Swordsman of the Sword Sect. If you join the Sword Sect with us, you can reach the sky in one step with your status as a senior sister!" The junior brother on the side tried his best to win over Wu Yijian.
"Sword Sect? Five Swords? I don't know...Brother Lu, what's your opinion?" Wu Yijian decided to let Lu Fengchen make the decision.
Xin Jinge and Xin Jinge were shocked that Wu Yijian didn't know the Sword Sect, and finally noticed Lu Fengchen, who had been sitting nearby eating.
Lu Fengchen also heard the identity of the person who came. He was indeed very interested in Jian Zong. Besides, he got the third and fourth levels of the Blood Spirit Body from Jian Xingyu, the Jian Zong.
"Jianzong is indeed a good place to go..." Lu Fengchen said.
"Brother, you are still wise." The words of praise from the junior fellow apprentices on the side were about to pour out. However, Lu Fengchen swallowed back his words.
"However, I really have no plans to go to Jianzong. You'd better ask Brother Wu!"
"If Brother Lu doesn't go, it won't be convenient for me to go." Wu Yijian said directly.
The junior brother on the side had doubts about Jian Zong for the first time. Isn't Jian Zong a dominant force? Isn’t it uncommon for others to receive opportunities that come to your door now?
Hearing this, Xin Jinge could only sigh. Forcibly changing other people's intentions was not the Sword Sect's style, so he had no choice but to give up. However, he was really worried that such prodigies would fall into the hands of other sects.
"In this case, we have no choice but to give up, but this little brother, can you answer me a question?" Xin Jinge said to Lu Fengchen.
Lu Fengchen was a little confused, but still agreed.
"Fairy please speak!"
Xin Jinge felt the aura on Lu Fengchen's body carefully again and asked his question.
"Do you... know someone named Liu Xun?"
After hearing this, Lu Fengchen and Wu Yijian felt as if they were struck by lightning.
"Liu Xun?" A figure appeared in Lu Fengchen's mind.
"I do know a man named Liu Xun, but I don't know if he is the same person as the fairy said. He is good at using fire and is taller than ordinary people!" Lu Fengchen told Xin Jinge according to Liu Xun in his memory. describing.
Hearing Lu Fengchen's description, Xin Jinge's face showed disappointment.
"It seems they are not the same person. The Liu Xun I know has fire spiritual power, but he is good at epee, and he is not tall..." Xin Jinge sighed again.
"The Liu Xun mentioned by the fairy is probably not Liu Engong. It probably just happens to have the same name." Wu Yijian also said at the side.
"But, your aura is indeed as unique as his... I hope I won't hide anything..." Xin Jinge still didn't give up.
"Brother Liu and I met four years ago, when we were still in the Northern Territory. When we parted ways with Brother Liu, he was probably..." Lu Fengchen began to explain some things between himself and Liu Xun.
After learning about Lu Fengchen and Liu Xun, Xin Jinge finally determined that the two Liu Xun were not the same person.
"That's such a pity..." Xin Jinge smiled reluctantly.
"Senior Sister, I'm afraid I miss Senior Brother Liu too much, but if I can't find Senior Brother Liu, I can only choose between Can Yuan and Canglang factions..." The junior brother on the side shook his head helplessly.
Although Xin Jinge prefers the Canglang sect, even she cannot completely trust Langyan.
"Can Yuan? Jian Xingyu?" Lu Fengchen said suddenly.
"No, Senior Brother Jian has been missing for many years, and his body was returned to Jian Zong a few months ago." Xin Jinge explained.
Lu Fengchen clearly knew whose hands Jian Xingyu's body was in, and now it had been returned to the Jian Sect.
"Fairy, can you tell me who sent it back?"
"The new Can Yuan Sword..."
"Can you tell me your name?"
Xin Jinge thought for a while and found out that the Sword Sect had no intention of spreading information about the new Can Yuan Sword, but just the name should not be a problem.
"The name of the new Can Yuan Sword is Shen Tong."
Lu Fengchen and the two felt like they were struck by lightning again.
"Are his eyes completely dark?" Lu Fengchen described Shen Tong's most striking feature.
Xin Jinge was also trembling.
"You actually know him?"
After hearing the answer, Lu Fengchen pondered for a moment and replied.
"I do know him. He and Liu Xun disappeared at the same time and have not been seen for three years. Speaking of which, I want to go to Jianzong to see him." Lu Fengchen hid many things about Shen Tong.
"That's the best thing... I have no choice but to win over the shop owner!" Xin Jinge apologized to Ating again.
"It's a good thing for old friends to meet each other, how can I stop it? Besides, Brother Wu is just staying at my place and helping me by the way." Ating said with a smile.
"Since you two intend to go to Jianzong, please rush to Xin's house as early as possible tomorrow, so that you won't disturb us too much."
After saying that, Xin Jinge and the two left.
Lu Fengchen and Wu Yijian were both a little uneasy.
"What's going on, you two?" Ating, who was eating, looked puzzled at the silence of the two people.
Lu Fengchen didn't speak because of Shen Tong's matter.
And Wu Yijian was wondering whether to pay back the dividends he received over the past few days.
In the end, he returned the spirit stone to Wu Yijian. Ating was a little confused again.
"Brother Wu, why is this so?"
"You will provide food and accommodation for the past few days. I wanted to help, but I didn't expect to leave again so soon."
"Because of this? Brother Wu, don't you know that the money you have helped me earn in the past two days is enough to live here for a few months. Besides, I don't lack spiritual stones at all. Which store on this street is not lit up all night? I only It's open during the day, I just can't stay busy." Ating hurriedly waved his hand to refuse.
Seeing this, Wu Yijian stopped forcing him.
Before dawn, Lu Fengchen and the two stood outside Xin's house. I saw that the junior brother next to Xin Jinge yesterday was already standing outside the door holding two black eagle mounts.
"Good morning, you two! You can set off after Senior Sister finishes her training!" Junior Brother greeted Lu Fengchen and the other two.
"You haven't asked me about my brother's name yet?" Lu Fengchen asked.
"My name is Zhao Xuan."
"Zhao Xuan? Then...who are you, General Zhao?" Lu Fengchen asked after thinking for a while.
Zhao Xuan smiled heartily after hearing this.
"My brother finally found out that General Zhao is my father."
Lu Fengchen recalled that he almost died at the hands of Zhao Yu a few days ago, and couldn't help but feel palpitations.
Xin Jinge also finished his training and appeared outside the door.
"Now that we're all here, let's set off!"
Xin Jinge took out a sword from the space ring and flew away with the sword!
"You two will follow us in the Black Eagle. We will arrive in about an hour or two." Zhao Xuan said to the two of them, and he also took out a sword and chased Xin Jinge.
The two of them also followed closely behind in the Black Eagle.
Albatross walked out of the house, looked at the four people who had already left, and sighed. Nowadays, the situation of Jianzong is not clear, and I don’t know whether the choice I and others made is right or wrong.
Lu Fengchen and Zhao Xuan were chatting on the way.
"Brother Zhao, what's Shen Tong's current situation in the Sword Sect?" Lu Fengchen asked.
"It's pretty good. We've managed to deal with a lot of elders in a few months... You are now half of the Sword Sect, and I do have something to explain."
"Today's Sword Sect is by no means as peaceful as it appears. Originally, the Five Swordsmen of this generation of Sword Sect were considered extremely good, but now Sword Master Shen Yun from the Sword Dao lineage, and Senior Brother Lang from the Swordsmanship lineage are traveling far away to practice. , Senior Sister Xin Jinge from the Sword Spirit lineage has a shallow foundation and weak strength, Senior Brother Liu Xun from the Heavy Sword lineage is considered useless, and Senior Sister Yu from the Double Swords lineage has been neglecting her job..."
Zhao Xuan's eloquence made Lu Fengchen and the two of them worried about the situation of the Sword Sect. This was not bad, but the entire younger generation of the Sword Sect seemed to be useless.
"Normally, we call the five meridians Canyuan, Canglang, Hanbing, Qianfu and Shuangling respectively. These are the representative characteristics of several senior brothers and sisters. Now the sect has begun to select candidates for the next sect leader. , It should have been Senior Brother Jian, but after Senior Brother Jian disappeared, the one with the greatest chance was Senior Brother Lang, but..."
Zhao Xuan thought for a while and decided not to say anything. Although he led Lu Fengchen and the others into the Sword Sect, the two of them preferred Shen Tong's lineage. He told everything. If the two turned against each other in the future...
