Outlaw

Shushan, in a separate courtyard.

Dewu Tianzun, Ling Shao and Dahe Sword Immortal are sitting here drinking tea.

The three have been living together for the past five days and have not left.

They have been preventing the empress from coming to trouble them and asking for the Twin Cities Mirror.

Now, five days have come.

No accident occurred, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Dahe Sword Immortal snorted: "I told you, you are making a fuss out of a molehill. This is Shushan. Even if the empress has great abilities, she would not dare to act recklessly in our Shushan. She is only twenty-six years old, what can she do? What? I can kill the empress with one sword strike."

Dewu Tianzun breathed a sigh of relief: "It is true that we have been a little more careful, but there is no big mistake in being careful. This Twin City Mirror is too important. Huangfu Jun is in it. Once it is taken away by the Empress, I am afraid that we will have to find a way to release Huangfu Jun."

Dahe Sword Immortal said: "You can rest assured now. Go to Emperor Wu's City. Xiao Beichen has also left the Sword God's residence. Xia Mengyao Taiqingzi and Lao Han have already left."

Dewu Tianzun nodded slightly: "In this case, we really should leave. Xuantianzun and the Imperial Master have also arrived at Emperor Wu City. We need to rush over. Confer Young Master Ling as the Young Master of the Taijing Ling Sect."

Young Master Ling stood up: "Then let's go."

After saying that, Young Master Ling left directly.

Outside the door, Ye Xiongshan, Ye Tianxuan, Ye Xianyu and Bai Lidong were all waiting.

Dewu Tianzun had just taken two steps, but he still turned around and said: "Dahe Sword Immortal, this matter is of great importance. Please be careful."

Dahe Sword Immortal was obviously a little impatient, but he still said patiently: "I understand."

Dewu Tianzun then left with peace of mind.

As soon as everyone left, Dahe Sword Immortal, the only one left in the room, immediately became unhappy: "Hmph. If it weren't for the Sword God's order, I wouldn't have served as an instructor at Taishang Taoism. Although Taijing Lingzong is tyrannical, But you really treat me like a follower?"

"Who do you think you are, Dewu Tianzun? Do you think you are Xuantianzun or Lingbao Tianzun?"

"I'm in Shushan, who dares to act so arrogantly?"

In fact, Dahe Sword Immortal didn't want to understand a question - why would Taijing Lingzong give him something as important as the Twin Cities Mirror? Instead of leaving it in the hands of Taijing Lingzong's own people?

……

Emperor Wu City, at the foot of Tiantian Mountain.

The two people climbed up the mountain road and went straight to Taijing Taoist Temple.

It was none other than the Imperial Master and Xuantian Zun.

The two walked side by side, talking and laughing.

It shows the extraordinary status of the national master.

You know, Xuan Tianzun is the titled Tianzun of Taijing Lingzong. The status and strength are far above Dewu Tianzun and Zhenwu Tianzun.

It is an extraordinary thing for a woman, the Imperial Master, to be able to walk side by side with Xuantian Zun.

Xuan Tianzun said: "National Master, Emperor Taijing thinks very highly of you. But there is one thing I don't understand."

The Imperial Master said: "Xuan Tianzun, please speak."

Xuan Tianzun said: "Back then, you used star magic that surpassed the phaseless level, and cooperated with the Taishi clan to launch forbidden magic, so that the great scourge would come to Huangfujun in advance. You forced her to use the mirror water-stopping technique to block the scourge. From then on, Huangfujun was sealed in into the Twin Cities Mirror. Why don't you hold such an important Twin Cities Mirror yourself? Do you have to give it to Dahe Sword Immortal?"

The Imperial Master smiled slightly and said: "This is something I have discussed with Emperor Taijing. It is to give Shushan a chance. It is also to give Taijing Lingzong a reason."

Xuan Tianzun was puzzled: "What do you mean?"

The Imperial Master said: "If Shushan can guard the Twin City Mirror, then Shushan must be on the opposite side of the Empress, Tianqi Holy See and Fumen. In this way, Shushan will become the mortal enemy of the four sects. Because the four sects will definitely find a way to release Huangfujun. "

Xuan Tianzun thought for a moment and gave a thumbs up secretly: "The Imperial Master is awesome. This is a divorce plan. Sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. What if Shushan cannot guard the Twin Cities Mirror?"

The Imperial Master said: "That's just right. Our Taijing Ling Sect has an absolutely legitimate reason to destroy Shushan."

hiss!

Xuan Tianzun was shocked by the National Master's strategy: "But if Shushan cannot guard the Twin Cities Mirror, if Huangfujun inside comes out... it will become a huge hidden danger to our Taoist sect."

The Imperial Master shook his head: "No. After forty years of development, Taijing Lingzong's strength has long been different from before. Moreover, even if they release Huangfujun... I'd be happy to do so. Because Huangfujun's release means that The Great Heavenly Scourge has also come out. The Great Heavenly Scourge, no one can resist it. Huangfujun will die instantly. If they try to let others resist this great Heavenly Scourge, everyone will die."

Xuan Tianzun was completely stunned.

The National Preceptor is amazing.

very scary.

No wonder even Emperor Taijing is such a great teacher. It's not without reason.

After a while, Xuantianzun finally came to his senses: "So. Is this a dead end?"

The Imperial Master said: "A certain death situation. Because, except for Huangfujun, no one else knows what the Great Divine Punishment means. Neither the Empress nor the Sword God know very well. Just wait and see the good show! Huangfujun is the only one who must die. The hidden danger is Puyang Qian. But this time, Puyang Qian will also die in Emperor Wu City. From now on, there will be no more four sects in the world."

Xuan Tianzun gave a thumbs up: "The national master is awesome!"

……

The top of Shushan.

Xiao Beichen followed Chen Yulou out of the courtyard and walked along the icy and snowy mountain road towards the highest mountain range.

This mountain range is too high, with an altitude of over [-] meters.

Snow covered the mountains.

It's hard to move an inch.

After walking for a long time, we still haven't reached the highest mountain peak.

Xiao Beichen couldn't help but stop and look up: "Sword God, Bashan Sword Field, why is it at such a high place?"

Chen Yulou said: "Bashan Sword Field is the first sword field in Daxia. It is transcendent from the ordinary world and does not eat the fireworks of the world. Ordinary people can't go up there. Back then, I also realized Taoism at Bashan Sword Field, and then I discovered the sword. dynasty."

Xiao Beichen said nothing and walked forward.

After spending a lot of time, we finally reached the highest mountain.

go up.

The place is actually lined with green trees and luxuriant branches.

It's too ridiculous.

Chen Yulou explained while leading the way: "Isn't it strange? In fact, this is because there is a Tiandao Sword Heart here. Therefore, it can nourish all living things. It is not surprising that an oasis appears."

Entering the top of the mountain, the surrounding temperature is very good, as warm as jade.

Upon closer inspection, Xiao Beichen was a little surprised.

I saw that the plants here were all pointed.

Same as the sword.

Every blade of grass contains a shocking and extraordinary sword intent.

terrible!

Chen Yulou smiled slightly and said: "The plants nourished by the Tiandao Sword Heart naturally contain sword energy. Otherwise, this place would not become the number one sword field in Great Xia."

It turned out to be the case.

Xiao Beichen continued to walk forward.

There was the sound of a hammer hitting metal.

Ping Pong Pong!

Nonstop.

And in the big square in the center, there is a big sword stuck in it.

The back mountain is an endless expanse of broken swords.

There are more than millions of them?

Every broken sword is a famous sword.

If you take it out casually, it will be enough to cause countless strong people in the world to rob it.

Chen Yulou pointed to the millions of broken swords in front of him with some pride: "For thousands of years, countless ancestors at Bashan Sword Field have created eight million swords. To Bashan Sword Field, they are broken swords. But to the outside world They are all famous swords. This is the foundation of Bashan Sword Field."

"Did you see the group of strong men in the blacksmith shop in front?"

Xiao Beichen looked in the direction of Chen Yulou's finger, and sure enough he saw a group of two-meter-tall strong men, shirtless, forging iron swords "ping ping ping pong".

"Who are they?"

Chen Yulou said: "Bashan swordsmith. The strongest swordsmith in Daxia. Their master is Bashan Ghost Master. The best swordsmith in Daxia."

As soon as he finished speaking, a loud voice sounded.

"Sword God, why are you here again? What sword are you trying to steal from me this time?"

A scruffy old man with a beard came out, seemingly dissatisfied with Chen Yulou.

Chen Yulou smiled slightly and said: "Master Gui, you are so stingy. There are eight million swords, what will happen if I take one?"

Cough!

The old man Guiye coughed: "Don't pressure me with morality."

Chen Yulou pointed to Xiao Beichen next to him: "This is my successor. The Empress' disciple. Xiao Beichen. I will bring him to recognize the sword."

The ghost master was shocked: "You want to bring him to recognize the sword?"

Chen Yulou: "Yes. I'm going to the Wose Palace. I can't tell you anything about my funeral."

"Hey!" Master Gui sighed: "There's really nothing I can do about you. You've already got one foot in the coffin, why are you bothering with those things? You can't just stay calm for a few days."

Chen Yulou: "The tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop. Will you give me this face?"

"Here. How proud is the Sword God? Can I not give it?" Master Gui was helpless and glanced at Xiao Beichen: "Boy, go and recognize the sword."

Chen Yulou smiled: "Xiao Beichen, go ahead. Use your hands, your eyes, and your heart. Feel the uniqueness of each sword. Feel the heart of the sword, the meaning of the sword."

"Master Gui and I are going to have a few sips of wine."

After saying that, Chen Yulou took Master Gui on his arm and went to drink. Xiao Beichen was left standing alone at the entrance of the back mountain.

Looking around, I saw a mountain full of swords.

Although Xiao Beichen didn't know what it meant to recognize a sword.

But Chen Yulou said so, and I guess he had a deep meaning.

Xiao Beichen didn't think much, and slowly walked into the sword field, reaching out and touching each sword. Close your eyes and remember what the sword looks like.

Sure enough, the sword has a heart and the sword has a purpose.

Every sword seems to be a living person, unique.

Xiao Beichen didn't even know how long it had been.

Finally, I finally recognized the last sword.

Closing his eyes, the entire sword field appeared in his mind.

Eight million.

A handful is a lot.

It's as if it's all engraved in the back of my mind.

Suddenly, a voice sounded.

"Are you Xiao Beichen?"

Xiao Beichen turned around and saw a man in his forties appearing behind him. He was wearing a green suit and carrying a large five-foot sword box on his back. The whole person is upright and strong, as if he is a divine sword about to be unsheathed.

The sword energy shines and its edge is frightening.

Absolutely extraordinary.

The aura is much stronger than that of Dahe Sword Immortal.

Xiao Beichen said in a deep voice: "Yes. Do you know me?"

The man in green smiled lightly and said: "Of course I know that the Sword God publicly selected you and Xia Mengyao as his heirs. A woman came here to recognize the sword before and then left. You are naturally the remaining heir."

The calm voice did not have the discomfort of Dahe Sword Immortal.

He stretched out his hand: "Introduction, my name is Ye Junbai."

Xiao Beichen was moved: "Ye Junbai, the leader of the three great swordsmen in Shu Mountain?"

Having been in Shushan for five days, Xiao Beichen had naturally heard of Ye Junbai's name.

Although he is as famous as Dahe Sword Immortal.

But he is the first of the three great sword immortals.

Known as the number one person under the Sword God.

And he's only in his early forties.

The future is limitless!

Ye Junbai smiled: "The title of the Sword Immortal is just a false name given to me by everyone. I have only one goal, the Sword God. Everything else is false."

So domineering.

This pattern is countless times stronger than that of Dahe Sword Immortal.

Xiao Beichen wondered why the Sword God didn't find Ye Junbai as his successor?

Ye Junbai seemed to see through Xiao Beichen's thoughts, and smiled slightly: "Don't think about it. I have my own swordsmanship, and it has taken shape. I am not suitable to inherit the swordsmanship of the Sword God. And I am forty years old, and my potential is limited."

Slowly walking up to him and patting Xiao Beichen's shoulder, Ye Junbai smiled slightly and said, "Don't think too much. I'm not jealous of you inheriting the Sword Dynasty, but I'm looking forward to it."

Xiao Beichen realized that this man had a big future and would definitely have a great future: "What do you expect?"

Ye Junbai looked up at the sky and murmured: "Ever since the Sword God created the sword Dynasty, I have always wanted to see how powerful this sword, the strongest sword in the world, is. This sword, the Sword God does not He can use it at will, and there are few people in the world who are worthy of the Sword God to use this sword. Only when the Sword God has found a successor and solved his worries will he use the sword."

After hearing this, Xiao Beichen himself felt very excited.

"Aren't you the Sword God's apprentice? Have you never seen him?"

Ye Junbai shook his head: "Bashan Sword Field recruits swordsmen from all over the world. It is a holy place for all swordsmen. I came here because of its reputation."

It turned out to be the case.

"Okay. It's time for me to go. If there is a chance, we will meet again." Ye Junbai patted Xiao Beichen's shoulder heavily: "Wudi City, I want to see your edge. What is so special about you? , can be chosen by the Sword God."

After saying that, Ye Junbai left.

Xiao Beichen was left in a daze.

A swordsman came out of Shushan.

This is true.

Ye Junbai's demeanor is shocking.

Moreover, Xiao Beichen could see that Ye Junbai's strength was far superior to that of Dahe Sword Immortal. There was a huge difference.

After recovering his thoughts, Xiao Beichen left the sword field and came to a house where he met Mr. Gui and Chen Yulou.

Chen Yulou enthusiastically pulled Xiao Beichen to sit down: "You can recognize the sword very quickly. It took Xia Mengyao two hours to recognize the sword before, but you only took one hour and fifty minutes. Your swordsmanship talent is better than hers a little."

"Come, sit down and drink."

Have a big drink.

Chen Yulou stood up to say goodbye and pulled Xiao Beichen away from the Bashan sword field.

Are you here just to let Xiao Beichen recognize the sword?

What's the use of recognizing a sword?

Xiao Beichen was a little confused, but didn't ask any more questions.

Returning to Shushan Villa, Chen Yulou fell asleep directly: "Boy, the empress entrusted you to me, and I have done everything I have to do. You can go."

Xiao Beichen bowed his hands respectfully: "Sword God, thank you."

Although they only got along for five short days, Xiao Beichen really liked and respected this old man deep down in his heart.

When leaving, it is inevitable to feel a little reluctant.

When he walked to the door, Xiao Beichen suddenly said: "Sword God, I'm going to beat up someone from Shushan. Do you think I'm not giving you face?"

Chen Yulou waved his hand impatiently: "Dahe Sword Immortal, right? Be gentle. Don't say I acquiesced."

Xiao Beichen: "...The Sword God is really free and easy. Thank you!"

The time for the Seven Days of Life and Death in Emperor Wu City is coming soon.

Naturally, when I came to Shushan, the most important thing was the Twin Cities Mirror.

Now, it's time to cash in.

……

Another courtyard in Shushan.

The empress sat on the sofa and read a book.

The deity and the true dharma body are exactly the same.

Apart from changes in temperament and vision, the personalities are basically the same.

At this time, a fragrant smell of grilled fish came.

Xiao Beichen walked in as usual.

He held his chin with his hands and watched the empress eating grilled fish.

This time was different from usual, Xiao Beichen's eyes were full of reluctance and affection.

That is respect and affection for the master.

There is also deep nostalgia.

He knew that day was coming soon.

There isn't much time like this.

After eating the grilled fish, the empress wiped the corners of her mouth, rinsed her mouth, and then sat upright: "Not bad, her skills are getting better and better."

Xiao Beichen didn't answer, just looked at it like this.

The empress suddenly said: "Aren't you going to sleep?"

Xiao Beichen: "I want to see more of Master."

The empress beheaded Xiao Beichen, and there was little she could do to him.

Xiao Beichen: "Master, has anyone ever said you are beautiful?"

The empress shook her head: "No."

understand.

They didn't dare to say... Otherwise they would be misunderstood by the empress, and that would be the end of it.

Xiao Beichen: "Let me tell you. Master, you are beautiful. If possible, I would like to comb your hair."

The empress didn't say anything, just sat there.

Not speaking is the default.

Swish!

Xiao Beichen stood up abruptly, pulled the empress to sit in front of the dressing table, and carefully combed the empress' hair.

"Master, do you know anything about the descendant who wrote the Heavenly Book?"

The empress shook her head: "Not yet, but it should be soon. Big expedition teams all over the world are looking for this person. I asked a person, and there should be news soon."

Xiao Beichen said lightly: "I hope this person won't give you news so quickly."

Empress: "..."

After combing his hair, Xiao Beichen learned to tie up the empress's hair.

Although the technique is very rough, it can be regarded as a good deal.

"Master, you go to bed early and I'll go out to do some errands. Then, we should go back to Emperor Wu City for our appointment."

……

A other courtyard.

Dahe Sword Immortal is sitting here practicing meditation.

The figure of Xiao Beichen also emerged in his mind, and he was very unhappy about this: "Xiao Beichen? Haha, a piece of garbage with no hair. Even if you get the inheritance of the Sword God, what can you do? Humph. Sooner or later you will You will die at the hands of Taijing Lingzong. Young Master Ling can kill you."

"When the time comes, I'm going to watch the excitement. Hahaha!"

"If you die, the Sword God may have to find another heir. Ye Junbai has his own swordsmanship, which is not suitable. And I am the best candidate. Hehe!"

At this moment, there was light footsteps outside the door.

Deng Deng Deng!

"Who?" Dahe Sword Immortal shouted directly at the door: "I am in a bad mood today and I won't see anyone. Get out!"

boom!

The door collapsed.

A young man in a green shirt walked in.

It was Xiao Beichen.

When Dahe Sword Immortal saw Xiao Beichen, he stood up immediately and became furious: "Are you deaf? I told you, I won't see anyone today, get out!"

Xiao Beichen did not leave, but continued walking forward.

He put his hands behind his back, walked steadily, and spoke lightly.

"Today, I, Xiao Beichen, am here to learn about Dahe Sword!"
