Cultivating Immortality, Starting from Childhood Sweethearts

Xu Pangda climbed up from the ground, spitting out mud and grass.

Having fallen heavily to the ground just now, Xu Pangda felt as if his internal organs were about to be shaken out.

Xu Pangda watched the black-clothed man walking towards him step by step, and kept retreating.

However, as he retreated, Xu Pangda leaned against a large tree, realizing that he could no longer take a step back.

Xu Pangda swallowed, looking at the black-clothed man in front of him, sweat constantly pouring from his forehead.

"Who are you? Why do you want to kill me? Do you know who I am?"

Xu Pangda said in fear, his fat trembling.

Xu Pangda felt that he was talking nonsense. If the other party was after money, they wouldn't be killing people like this. Moreover, in the outskirts of this imperial capital, which robber would dare to be so嚣张arrogant?

It was obvious that the other party was coming directly for him, but Xu Pangda didn't understand, who exactly had he offended?

In the capital, he hadn't offended anyone, right? But if it was in the county town, during his years in power, he had indeed offended some people.

But the problem was, if those people really wanted to attack him, it would be best to do it on the way, and it was impossible to attack him when he was almost at the imperial capital.

"You are Xu Ming's younger brother." The black-clothed man tilted his head.

"So it's because of Fifth Brother?" Hearing the other party say the two words Xu Ming, Xu Pangda knew that it must be some of Fifth Brother's enemies who had come to make trouble for him.

Xu Pangda didn't blame his younger brother. On the contrary, Xu Pangda was worried that the other party would use his death to have some impact on Fifth Brother, indirectly plotting against Fifth Brother.

The other party didn't say anything more, he just raised his sword and slashed down at Xu Pangda.

Xu Pangda turned his head and closed his eyes tightly.

"Clang!"

Just when Xu Pangda knew he was done for, he heard a crisp sound in front of him.

Xu Pangda slowly opened his eyes, a long sword blocking Xu Pangda's path.

The long sword gleamed with a cold light.

A woman wearing sword attire, holding a clear, almost glass-like long sword, stood in front of Xu Pangda.

The woman was tall and slender, Xu Pangda felt that she was even taller than him.

She stood gracefully, although her figure was not as graceful and exaggerated as some women, she had a refreshing feeling.

Especially the high ponytail, which made the girl look even more capable.

Xu Pangda had imagined countless female heroes, and he felt that this was what a female hero should look like.

It's just that, looking at the back of this female hero, Xu Pangda always felt a little familiar, but he couldn't say where he felt familiar.

The woman flicked her hand, and a sharp sword aura cut open from bottom to top.

The black-clothed man felt something was wrong and took advantage of the situation to fly directly into the mountain forest without any hesitation.

The woman pinched the magic seal, and the long sword in her hand flew out, stabbing towards the position where the other party was fleeing.

"Clang clang clang clang!"

The clear long sword drew a beautiful and deadly arc between the trees.

The black-clothed man kept blocking his vital points, but other places were cut open with wounds by this long sword.

"Leave a way out for others, we won't kill today."

Just when the black-clothed man was about to be killed, an old man's voice came from the sky.

A spiritual force broke through the heavy clouds and hit the girl's flying sword.

The clear flying sword trembled and fell straight down, finally inserting straight into the ground.

Gaining such a respite, the black-clothed man hurried away without any hesitation.

The woman looked coldly at the direction where the black-clothed man was escaping. The clear long sword seemed to have come back to its senses, pulled itself out of the ground, and then flew back to its owner's side.

As if blaming itself for not completing the task, the clear long sword kept circling, as if saying "Sorry".

"It's okay." The girl grasped the hilt of the sword and put the long sword away.

Xu Pangda knew that he had survived a disaster and was saved by the female hero in front of him. He quickly stood up and bowed to the female hero in front of him: "I am Xu Pangda of the Wu Kingdom, thank you,姑娘, for saving my life."

Hearing the other party report his name, the girl turned around, looked at the man in front of her, with a hint of complexity in her eyes.

"Do you know me?" Xu Pangda asked, looking at the expression of his savior.

But then again, this girl is really beautiful.

It's just that he didn't know why, but he always felt a kind of inexplicable closeness.

"Heard of you." The girl said coldly.

"I wonder what your esteemed name is? If you don't mind, you can come to Wudu for a meal, and Pangda will repay you for saving my life."

Xu Pangda was indeed telling the truth.

People saved his life, and he definitely had to give some thank-you gifts.

"No need." The girl replied briefly, then looked at Xu Pangda, who was covered in mud, "Have you offended anyone?"

"I don't think so." Xu Pangda thought for a while, then shook his head with a smile, "But the affairs of the court are hard to say, maybe there are some political enemies, it's not impossible."

"Yeah."

The girl nodded, without saying much, turned around and flew away.

"Eh?"

When Xu Pangda reacted, the girl had already turned around and flew away, and her figure disappeared into the bushes in an instant.

"Are female heroes so decisive now?"

Xu Pangda patted the dirt on his body, and looked at the dead servants and horses not far away, a trace of sadness appeared in his eyes.

They all died because of me.

Xu Pangda retracted his gaze and quickly walked towards Wudu.

Only when he safely returned to Wudu could he send someone over to collect their bodies and investigate the murderer!

Evening, Xu Mansion.

The Xu Mansion's family banquet had already been set up.

The Old Madam, the current Duke of Xu, Xu Shuiya, Xu Zheng, Duke of Qin, Qin Ruhai, and other important people from the Xu and Qin families were all sitting at the dining table.

But not a single person moved their chopsticks.

"Where's Pangda? Why hasn't he come back yet? According to the schedule, Pangda should have arrived in the afternoon, right?"

The Old Madam asked.

This table of food was for Xu Pangda's welcome dinner.

Although Xu Pangda was not as favored by His Majesty as Xu Ming is now, no matter what, he had also obtained a meritorious name, adding glory to the Xu Mansion. Moreover, this time Pangda came to the capital, it was said that he was going to be entrusted with important tasks.

Wang Feng also frowned worriedly and said to Chunyan beside her: "Chunyan, ask someone to go to the city gate to see why the young master hasn't...".

"He's back, he's back..."

Just as Wang Feng had just said half a sentence, a servant hurriedly ran over and knelt in front of the old masters.

"Old Ancestor, masters, madams, Third Young Master is back..."
