Sword of Coming

The much-anticipated Miyagi Island.

Liu Laocheng has already issued a message to the entire Shujian Lake that no one is allowed to get within a thousand feet of the island without authorization.

No one dares to cross it.

After Gao Mian, who was still drinking very bad wine that day, fell asleep drunk, only Xun Yuan and Liu Laocheng were left drinking together in a dilapidated pavilion.

For the land gods in the eyes of ordinary people, what they care about is longevity, and they have no feeling for the scorching heat and cold in the year.

The two didn't chat much.

Xun Yuan suddenly smiled and said, "It's almost time to go back."

Liu Laocheng nodded, "Tongyezhou needs Mr. Xun to take charge."

Xun Yuan shook his head and said: "Gao Mian doesn't think too much about things. He thinks that my trip to Aquarius Continent is just for him. In fact, only half of it is like this. You are different. Now we are Yu Gui Zong’s own family, so it’s time to be honest with you about some secret matters.”

Liu Laocheng, who existed like the King of Heaven in Shujian Lake, said in a deep voice: "Mr. Xun, please speak."

Xun Yuan gave Zhu Lian a "book on fighting between talented men and beautiful women" at Chenchen Pharmacy in Laolongcheng. To Gao Mian, he was groveling, and he was simply a follower of the old leader of the Invincible Divine Fist Gang. He was used as a money bag along the way. They all enjoy it, it's not that they are cheating or planning anything.

But on Liu Laocheng's side.

Facing Xun Yuan, the mountains stood tall.

Xun Yuan said softly: "As for me, I actually have a good chance, but I don't really want to reach the Thirteenth Realm. There are too many restrictions and I am not as comfortable as the Immortal Realm now. The sky is falling and tall people can bear it. For example, we in Tongyezhou, It used to be Tongye Sect, that Du Mao. But now even if I don’t recognize it, I still have to recognize it. As for why I don’t take a step forward and enter the Ascension Realm, I’m not sure right or wrong for the time being. You will know it later.”

Xun Yuan twisted the wine glass in his hand, "But after all, I am the head of the Jade Gui Sect, and I still have to think about my family. When Du Mao died, his whole body collapsed and scattered, but it was not just the fragments of the glazed golden body that you, Liu Laocheng, grabbed. That's all. There are also those indescribable things in the world, which are what we cultivators call opportunities. So how much Jiang Shangzhen can intercept from the opportunities that originally belonged to me, and how much can he steal from the Tongye Sect monks? How much you grab depends on your ability and luck."

"If Jiang Shangzhen gets nothing, and I rush to this Shujian Lake in despair, Liu Laocheng, you can do more work and help such a waste."

"If Jiang Shangzhen is pretty good, it is also a good thing. A descendant of the Jade Gui Sect has chosen Aquarius Continent. At the same time, the two of them are expected to be in the Immortal Realm. I believe that even if it is Tianjun Qizhen, the Guanhu Academy next door is still the Song family of Dali , I don’t even dare to insult you anymore.”

Liu Laocheng nodded.

These are the truth.

The reason why Liu Laocheng himself did not establish a sect in Shujian Lake was not just out of frustration. The doorways therein were winding, dangerous, and distracting. The cause and effect were profound. If you were not careful, it would delay or even delay the sect. It is an obstacle to the road to the top. And every time you go higher, no matter in terms of realm or cultivation, you take an extra step forward, and there are endless unspeakable secrets about the thoughts of those close to you, which is unspeakable. Liu Laocheng suffered a lot and suffered a lot. He almost lost his life back then.

Yellow vine wine, buried in willows on the palace wall.

It was an old account that was quite old, and it was a confusing account.

Even Liu Laocheng, who is as hard-hearted as Liu Laocheng, does not want to bring up the past again.

If he hadn't thought it through thoroughly and the Jade Guizong's next sect had been chosen to be located in Shujian Lake, Liu Laocheng would probably never return to this sad place in his life.

The longer he spent with Xun Yuan, the more frightened Liu Laocheng became.

This is not just because Xun Yuan is an experienced mountaintop monk in the Immortal Realm.

This is the intuition that allows Liu Laocheng to survive dangerous situations again and again.

Why didn't he kill Liu Zhimao, a smart man, and the young accountant? There was another reason that Liu Laocheng did not tell Gao Mian and Xun Yuan. Because that would make him very passive. If the handle is left in Liu Zhimao's hand, it won't hurt or itch, but if it is left in the hands of Xun Yuan and Jiang Shangzhen, Liu Laocheng will have a layer of skin peeled off and drip with blood. He has to endure it obediently, or else his face will be completely torn. Both sides suffer.

After Liu Laocheng reached the fifth realm, he became more and more silent. It was only after a larger and magnificent picture was spread out in front of his eyes that he discovered a cruel truth that made him think deeply and send chills down his spine every time.

The battle of avenues.

It sounds very general.

But when a Shanzeye cultivator with a high enough realm and a far enough field of vision looks down at the width of the road above his feet, he then looks at the five realms of the Genealogy Immortal Master at the same height, and looks at the road under their feet.

It's a bumpy trail, which is different from a thoroughfare.

Does Liu Laocheng really not want to become the sect leader of Xun Yuan and his ilk? Don’t you want to be able to truly determine the trend of a continent?

It's just that I can't do it if I have no intention of doing it.

Xun Yuan looked at the Aquarius Island wild cultivator in front of him with a smile.

Liu Laocheng in Xun Yuan's eyes.

He is a person who is blessed with good luck and great trends. Extremely rare. The extremely outstanding Jade Pu Realm, even Jiang Shangzhen, who is best at catching and fighting, and has a very lethal natal creature, may not be his opponent.

But once you reach the twelfth realm, the immortal realm. Jiang Shangzhen will be able to regain the disadvantage.

Therefore, it is just right for Liu Laocheng to serve as the chief worshiper of the lower sect of Yugui Sect. Jiang Shangzhen has a good nature and a bad temper. Basically, he is similar to Liu Laocheng. They are both born wild cultivators. The more troubled the world, the more comfortable they are.

Xun Yuan smiled and said: "Liu Laocheng, relax, I will ensure that you reach the immortal realm safely. Then you won't have to toast me again and again. If there is a drinking party again, no matter how big or small, I will reciprocate."

Liu Laocheng raised the wine glass and said with a smile: "Then I would like to thank Mr. Xun for another glass of wine!"

Xun Yuan gently clinked their glasses with them, and each drank his own drink. Naturally, Liu Laocheng was the first to drink up, while Xun Yuan finished his drink slowly.

————

In the spacious room on the top floor of a high-rise building in Chishui City, Cui Dongshan prepared to walk out of the thunder pond several times, but then retracted his feet.

He jumped up and down and flapped his sleeves vigorously.

Like a big white goose flapping its wings randomly.

On Gongliu Island, which is filled with mist, the landscape painting left by Cui Chang is completely invisible.

If a Confucian saint sitting above the sky of Aquarius Continent wants to see it, of course he can, but without involving any major right or wrong, such behavior is "rude" and not even reasonable.

And this principle is so high that it has become a rule of etiquette. It is precisely the iron law established by the sage of rites for his own Confucianism. It is a shackles specially imposed on Confucian saints to restrain their hands and feet. It is very interesting.

In fact, during the long years when Confucianism ruled the world, there were many secret plans that were shocking to the world, including those of hundreds of schools of thought, those of great monks in the 12th and 13th realms, and those of demons, ghosts, monsters, and spirits. Some of them were stillborn. In the belly, but more, it has caused huge destructive power and far-reaching consequences.

However, this rule is unshakable and still firmly binds Confucians who hold the position of god.

Isn’t it incredible?

Don't think that only Li Sheng is so unreasonable. Bai Yujing, the Lotus Buddha Kingdom, also has a similar line.

Cui Dongshan stopped and sat cross-legged in front of the chessboard again. He put his hands into the chess jar and stirred it randomly, making a crisp sound of the two jars of colorful clouds clinking against each other.

Even if Cui Dongshan couldn't see what happened in Gongliu Island, he still wanted to praise Xun Yuan's words and deeds that night, "Ginger is still old and spicy, and Liu Laocheng is still a little tender."

Cui Dongshan twisted out a colorful cloud and knocked it heavily on the chessboard.

"Reminding you of Liu Laocheng. How to choose is not only a mental test for a descendant of the sect, but also a good one to sell to Liu Laocheng."

"But these are all trivial matters. Now, the territory of Shujian Lake is approaching with the surging momentum. It is the fat on the mouth of the Great Li Iron Cavalry and the chicken ribs of the Zhu Ying Dynasty. The war that truly determines the ownership of the entire central Aquarius Continent is about to begin. , then one of the seventy-two sages of the Middle-earth Confucian Temple above us will definitely look here without blinking. Since Liu Laocheng was born as a wild cultivator after all, even if he has intuition about the general trend of the world, he can The insider information, transactions and undercurrent trends that he has first-hand contact with are far inferior to those of the Great Li National Master."

Cui Dongshan stared at the chess piece and sneered: "Old Liu, so your understanding of Xun Yuan's city is still too shallow."

A few words on the top of the feudal island.

It's for the real big shots behind the scenes, some directly, some indirectly.

Cui Dongshan said to himself: "First, Xun Yuan reminds you Liu Laocheng. The implication is actually biased. So whether you beat Chen Pingan to death or show mercy, you will be grateful to Xun Yuan. This It's just human nature. Even my husband, if he knows about this incident, he might be grateful to Xun Yuan who 'speaks for justice'."

Cui Dongshan twisted out another chess piece and placed it on the chessboard, "Second, if you don't kill my husband, he, Xun Yuan, is in a small place. He has won the favor of the ruined lineage of the literary saint who is in a precarious state and has almost no lights, so he can get it for nothing. A favor. Even if the literary sage has insight into people's hearts, but the facts are there, you have to hold your nose to recognize them. This is the behavior of a gentleman. Scholars can't help it."

Cui Dongshan took out the chess pieces again and threw them casually on the chessboard, "The third is the real benefit, which is immeasurable." Xun Yuan said this to the saint above him who had dealt with him, and even more to the The saint who almost had to eat cold pig head meat listened. As long as there is a dispute between the avenues, even if he, Xun Yuan, knows about the tall woman standing behind Chen Pingan, he will still kill her."

"Do you really think that one of the seventy-two sages who just handed over a jade tablet of 'I am good at cultivating Haoran Qi' is not angry? Of course, I am not angry with my husband. On the contrary, this sage has a great spirit, otherwise he would have been He couldn't say such generous words in Old Dragon City. But the more he became like this, as one of the sages who supervised the patrol of Aquarius Continent, for the woman who dared to draw a sword and wanted to pierce the biggest trap in the world, The more dissatisfied you become.”

"You are such a romantic figure who is both a sage and a hero, and you are still like this. Wouldn't that poor guy who was taken to the Confucian Temple by Ya Sheng to shut up in the Confucian Temple to think about his mistakes feel more at ease? Do you want to take a look at Xun Yuangao?"

"It has always been extremely difficult for the upper sect to establish the next sect. It's not about the amount of money or the lack of money, or whether the fist is strong or not, but it's just a matter of whether the Confucian Academy agrees or not."

Cui Dongshan looked away from the chessboard and glanced at the blurry Gongliu Island on the scroll, "Liu Laocheng, Liu Laocheng, in this way, how many sentences did Xun Yuan say in total? How many words? In the end, Yu Guizonglao What’s the value of it?”

Cui Dongshan slapped the chessboard, and four chess pieces flew high and then fell gently.

Cui Dongshan clicked his tongue and said: "For those who practice Taoism, is it useless to cultivate the mind?"

Cui Dongshan waved his sleeves, and four chess pieces flew out with a bang, and said angrily: "Damn it, all of you, including the old bastard, hurry up and burn incense and kowtow. Don't let my husband survive this mental disaster, otherwise None of you can escape! Shujian Lake, Zhengyang Mountain, Qingfeng City, Zhenwu Mountain, Tongye Sect, Yugui Sect, Dali Song Clan, Bai Yujing..."

Cui Dongshan's voice became lower and lower, and finally his expression was dull for a long time, and he suddenly wailed: "The old bastard is right, my husband has a lot of worries!"
