The breeze blows and the willow leaves sway.

On the road leading to Xingchen Jianzhuang, a person walked up happily, trotted, and arrived in front of the Jianzhuang in an instant: "Master, Master, I'm back!" It was Fu Bing.

After meeting, Fu Bing was so excited that he didn't notice the sadness on everyone's faces. He knelt on the ground with a bang, kowtowed to Mrs. Xiao, the owner of Xiao Village, and said, "Thank you, Master, for your teachings over the years, so that my great revenge can be avenged."

! Fu Bing has nothing to repay for such a great kindness, please accept my disciple’s worship!"

At this time, everyone had some smiles on their faces. Mrs. Xiao walked forward and helped Fu Bing up: "Okay, just take revenge."

After saying hello, Fu Bing, who has always been attentive, noticed the strangeness of everyone. It was such a happy thing to avenge his great revenge. As soon as he said it, it stands to reason that Xingchen Jianzhuang would have to decorate it with lights and put on a grand banquet to wash away the dust. But today,

Why did everyone just smile faintly? Looking around, there was no sign of any servants. The whole sword manor was deserted. The junior brothers and sisters were not there either. Could it be that they haven't come back yet? Fu Bing was shocked and pulled Li Li aside to ask what happened.

Li Li sighed and briefly told him about Xiao Guanhong's murder of Ximen Xi.

"Ah?!" Fu Bing was shocked. He didn't expect such a big thing to happen in Jianzhuang. He asked where junior brother Li Li is now? What's the attitude of the master and his wife?

Li Li said that the junior brother should be in the room now. The master's wife not only did not scold the junior brother, but praised him.

Fu Bing nodded. Although there was something wrong with his junior brother, the fault of this matter was ultimately Ximen Xi's. He also knew that the Ximen family would come to seek revenge soon. Anyway, his great revenge had been avenged, and his wish was fulfilled, so he didn't care about life or death.

Fu Bing went to Xiao Guanhong's room, but did not find him. At this moment, in the dusty world, another person came back from Jianzhuang. Needless to say, it was Xiao Shuiling.

Xiao Shuiling met with her parents and elder brother, and congratulated Fu Bing on getting his revenge. After that, he went to find Xiao Guanhong. After hearing that Fu Bing said that his junior brother was not in the house, he had an idea and went straight to Tayun Cliff.

Stepping on the cloud cliff.

Xiao Guanhong is indeed here. Looking from a distance, under the shrouded clouds, only his back can be seen. He is sitting on the edge of the cliff, motionless and lost in thought.

Xiao Shuiling shook her head slightly and walked forward. The closer she got, the more pungent smell of alcohol she could smell.

Xiao Guanhong noticed something, turned around, and found that it was Xiao Shuiling. His heart warmed, and he smiled slightly, but he still couldn't hide the loneliness on his face, "Sister, you are back."

Xiao Shuiling walked forward and looked at the drunk Xiao Guanhong and the two or three wine cans lying on the ground. She felt unbearable and reached out to rub Xiao Guanhong's face with a look of affection on her face.

A burst of warmth came from Xiao Shuiling's palm.

Xiao Guanhong reached out and patted the warm hand gently, but a helpless smile flashed at the corner of his mouth.

Xiao Shuiling sat next to him and said, "Don't be sad, it's not your fault."

"It's not my fault, but what can I do? Sister, I don't want to hurt you. I want to go to the Ximen Family by myself."

"No." Xiao Shuiling said without hesitation, "Why did you go to the Ximen Family? To admit your mistake? I think you went to fight to the death."

Xiao Guanhong was silent for a while. Yes, that's what he thought. In the worst case, he would just kill someone, even though he would die in the end.

Xiao Shuiling shook her head: "You can't go. If you go, there will be no hope of survival. If you don't go, there may be a way."

Xiao Guanhong was shocked. After killing Ximen Xi, is there still hope for her to survive? However, she admired this sister so much that she sometimes even thought that there was nothing that this mysterious sister could not do in the world. She

Since he said this, it certainly makes sense. He raised his head and looked at Xiao Shuiling expectantly, "What can I do?"

Xiao Shuiling looked at Xiao Guanhong, with a hint of cunning at the corner of his mouth, and smiled, completely without the embarrassment of facing a formidable enemy, "Don't ask, just don't worry." After that, he stood up, smiling like a warm spring breeze: "Follow me.

Let's go back."

Seeing Xiao Shuiling's smile, Xiao Guanhong felt warm in his heart. He couldn't find any reason to refuse, and as if there was some force forcing him, he subconsciously said "Yeah".

In the past few days, Xingchen Sword Village has been surprisingly quiet, and also terrifyingly quiet.

Xiao Guanhong practiced martial arts day and night, preparing for a decisive battle with the Ximen family. Even Xiao Shuiling, a "mysterious" woman who seemed to be fearless, looked worried at the moment. Fu Bing was fine, he had already seen life and death.

I can't see anything strange. As for Li Li, the owner and his wife, although they are not greedy for life and fear of death, they can't help but feel sad when they think about the centuries-old foundation of Xingchen Jianzhuang being wasted.

On the side of Guanyun Mountain, on a hidden hillside not far from Xingchen Jianzhuang.

The dense jungle blocks the sky and the sun. Although it is daytime, the place is wrapped in the shade cast by large tracts of tall trees, making it slightly dark. Looking up from the jungle, through the dense leaves, you can vaguely spot the Star Sword on the hillside.

Side wall of the village.

There was a group of about forty or fifty people, all dressed in black and masked. But from their eyes, one could see that there were men and women, and they seemed to be slightly tired. They stood in an orderly manner in a hidden place on the hillside. In front of them was a person.

An old man with white hair, dressed in green clothes and standing with his hands behind his back, is looking up thoughtfully, looking at Xingchen Jianzhuang not far away. It is Qinglong.

After a long time, Qinglong turned around and looked at everyone. Everyone was a little lazy in the cool woods. When they saw Qinglong making a move, they immediately cheered up, stood upright, and stood ready. There was a hint of emotion in Qinglong's eyes.

The chilling and murderous intention made all the disciples tremble.

Qinglong said calmly: "The Ximen Family is almost here, and White Tiger should also succeed. I will go to Xingchen Sword Manor in person to stop Ximen Ba in a while. Ximen Ba knows the difficulty and retreats. If it fails, take action, and you will rush forward with all your strength.

,Stop the Ximen Family.”

"yes!"

Qinglong nodded, "I'll take the first step." In a flash of blue light, the person disappeared into the woods.

"Huh..." The disciples breathed a sigh of relief now, as if they were usually scared to death of the rarely smiling Qinglong Hall Master. They looked left and right slightly uneasy, and found that Qinglong was indeed gone, so they said to each other

They looked at each other to confirm, and then they all sat down on the ground in unison, beating their legs and rubbing their shoulders, whining and starting to complain.

"Alas, tell me, why should we help the Star Sword Village?"

"That's right, we came all the way here, why? It was a toss-up all the way, and it didn't stop at all. My legs are almost broken."

"Besides, don't the Xingchen Sword Villa and the Ximen Family claim to be famous and upright? Wouldn't it be better to let them kill each other? Why bother us?"

"Okay, okay, stop complaining. This is what the Holy Princess means!"

...

"Then tell me, why did the Holy Princess want to save the Star Sword Village?"

"Hey, you don't know." One person said and paused, "I heard that there are two meanings here. First, the daughter of the owner of Xingchen Sword Village is most likely the daughter of the White Tiger Hall who taught me

His disciple, and, hehe, Bai Hu was fascinated by him. I heard that the master of Suzaku Hall was very jealous because of this."

"Ah?" everyone exclaimed.

"Of course, this is also hearsay. Baihutang has never admitted it. Also, if the news is leaked, this woman will definitely be killed."

Everyone nodded and felt that it made sense.

Someone complained again: "What does that have to do with our Qinglong Hall? The hall master really agrees to anything! Just let the Baihu Hall master save people by himself, why bother to do such a thankless thing?"

"Hey, don't you know this? This is the order given by the Holy Princess."

"What?" Everyone exclaimed: "The Holy Princess is also involved in this matter? How can she, a little disciple, have such a great reputation? I thought it was the Master of the White Tiger Hall who went to ask the Master of the Qinglong Hall."

"Nonsense! Even if we, the Master of Qinglong Hall, are senior, we would not dare to send troops to save people privately."

Everyone nodded.

"Hehe, I heard that the reason... is that the Holy Princess has taken a liking to the young master of Xingchen Sword Village!"

"There is such a thing!" everyone exclaimed.

"Yes! Not only that, but I also gave him the Meteor Sword as a token of love! I heard that this matter has spread all over the world! Maybe it won't be long before the Holy Princess gets married here. We want to meet again.

Holy Princess, you have to come to the Star Sword Manor!"

"Wow -" there was an uproar.

"So, if we take action later, we must protect Xiao Guanhong. If he dies and the Holy Princess blames him, we will all die!"

Everyone nodded deeply.

As expected, after a while, Ximen Ba rushed into Xingchen Sword Manor with murderous intent, led his second daughter Ximen Su and hundreds of good men from the mountains, and confronted everyone in the sword manor.

On a tree in the distance, Qinglong stood on the branch with his hands behind his back, looking quietly at the people below. The cyan clothes blended with the green leaves. If you didn't look carefully, you couldn't tell that there was another person standing here. More

Needless to say, no one was looking here at all right now. However, Xiao Shuiling glanced upward from the corner of his eyes, and a green shadow was reflected in his eyes before he quickly turned around and smiled slightly at the corner of his mouth.

Inside the Sword Manor, Master Xiao Manor bowed his hands and said, "Master Ximen came here today, why did you come here?"

"What's the matter?" Ximen Ba suppressed his anger and said coldly: "Your Excellency, don't pretend to be confused and order the young master to kill my son. Don't you still know?"

Master Xiao said calmly: "I already know about this matter."

Upon hearing this, Ximen Ba snorted coldly and pointed at Xiao Guanhong, "In that case, you must kill someone to pay for your life! Then please Master Xiao, do it yourself, lest I do it!"

Master Xiao was not sullen: "Kill to pay for life? If Mr. Ximen killed that brothel girl, I'm afraid no one will pay for her life."

"What did you say!" Everyone in the Ximen family was angry for a while, and there was still confusion in their anger.

Master Xiao smiled and said: "What? Lord Ximen doesn't know yet? Your Excellency, Young Master Ximen, was angry for a while after being taught a lesson by Miss Ximen. He wanted to kill a prostitute for no reason, and the woman vented his anger. If Quanzi had not taken action, Young Master Ximen would have killed the prostitute, and the woman

If this matter spreads, I'm afraid the reputation of the Ximen Family will be ruined. Alas? In this case, Master Ximen should also thank Quan Zi for preserving the reputation of the Ximen Family."

"You're talking nonsense!" Ximen Ba was furious, not believing that this was true. On that day, all the followers put all the blame on Xiao Guanhong, insisting that it was Xiao Guanhong who was obsessed with sex and killed Ximen Xi in order to compete for prostitutes.

I was really surprised when I suddenly heard such a statement today, but for a moment I thought it was very possible. After all, he still knew what his son had done.

"Why, Master Ximen doesn't believe it?" Master Xiao said with a smile: "How about this? How about we go to Jian Zong City now and confront the woman named Qian'er?"

"You..." Ximen Ba didn't know what to say for a moment. If he really arrived in Jian Zong City and asked if this was the case, he would not be able to hold back his old face. Not only would there be no reason to kill Xiao Guanhong for revenge, but the reputation of the Ximen Family would be completely destroyed.

Ruined. At that moment, I felt cruel in my heart. If I destroyed Xingchen Sword Village, I would die without any evidence! Anyway, the whole world was spreading rumors that Xiao Guanhong was fighting for a prostitute, and the woman killed her son. "Young man, you are deceiving the public with your monstrous words! You said you are going to Jianzong City, you are just trying to get rid of it."

How many more days will your son live! Huh, he will die sooner or later, but he will die anyway! I advise you to be self-aware and do it yourself! If I do it, I am afraid that Xiao Guanhong will not only die!"

"That's such a pity." Master Xiao said lightly: "Maybe, you will be the one who dies!" Although he said this, he also knew that his probability of winning was less than 10%!

"Okay! Since Master Xiao said so, I will ask you for advice on your Star Sword!" Ximen Ba was furious and led everyone to withdraw. The two sides were at war with each other and were about to explode.

At this moment, a loud shout came from outside the door: "Stop!"

The sound came, and everyone was frightened. They all stopped and looked back. They saw a white shadow flying across the sky. The figure was elegant and light, seeming to be slow but actually urgent. The skirt of his clothes was flying, passing over everyone's heads, standing firmly.

Among the people in Jianzhuang and the Ximen Family, everyone thought he was a woman due to his effortless skills. But when he landed firmly, everyone exclaimed incredulously, she turned out to be a middle-aged man!
Chapter completed!
