Tai Nian Gate is located in Beiwu Tai Nian Mountain, and it is a full ten days' journey from Xi Ze Shang'an just by riding a horse.On that day, heavy snow accumulated a thick layer in front of the mountain gate of Tainian Gate, and Lu Chi took a letter to Qianren Cliff in the back mountain.Xie Lannan is practicing sword on the cliff. He is wearing a thin martial arts training uniform, and a set of Huifeng swordsmanship makes him agile and elegant.

When Lu Chi came up, he didn't deliberately hide his aura traces. Xie Lannan discovered it almost the moment he climbed up Qianren Cliff.The piercing sword light mixed with falling snowflakes approached him in the blink of an eye. Lu Chi slowly raised his sword hilt. It seemed that the movement was slow, but it happened to block Xie Lannan's attack.

Xie Lannan's sword moves became more complicated and fierce, and his movements were so fast that if there were other people present, only an afterimage could be seen.Lu Chi's movements were still unhurried, but he was able to resolve his sword moves accurately every time.

The hot breath of the young man dissipated in the cold air. He switched the sword back to his left hand, put the sword back into its sheath, and there was a deep undercurrent in his eyes: "It's still not as good as Master."

"You're too impatient." Lu Chi brushed the snowflakes off his shoulders, "Martial arts can't be learned overnight, so don't be in a hurry."

Xie Lannan held the sword, "Then if I practice sword day and night, how long will it take to catch up with Master?"

Lu Chi thought for a while, and gave a rough figure: "It will take about three to five years."

Three to five years?He looked at the sword in his hand with a gloomy expression: it was too long.

There were snowflakes falling again, Lu Chi raised his head and glanced at the sky, there were thick leaden gray clouds piled on it, which was extremely bleak.He handed the letter in his hand to Xie Lannan.

"A letter from Li Yu Palace."

Hearing this name, Xie Lannan's expression was as usual, and he took the letter calmly without even moving his eyelids.The letter was only a thin page, but he read it for a long time.Then, he raised his eyes and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips.

"he died."

Lu Chi knew who he was, he was Xie Lannan's biological father, and also the lord of the Liyu Palace.Although Xie Lannan was smiling, Lu Chi felt that he was not happy.Even though Xie Lannan's father didn't treat him well, and his first half of his life in the Lek Palace could be said to be miserable, but in the end there is a blood connection.

Xie Lannan was indeed unhappy.He thought, how could that person die so quickly, before he personally skinned and killed him, he died so silently.

"I'm going to mourn him, Master."

Xie Lannan received the letter paper, turned around and said to Lu Chi.

The snow didn't fall heavily this time, fine and small snowflakes fluttered down, and one of them touched the tip of Lu Chi's eyebrows.The snow is cold, but his smile is warm.

"Do you need Master to accompany you?"

Xie Lannan shook her head, "I still want to take back some things that belong to me."

The young man's gaze was obstinate, faint, and somewhat paranoid.Lu Chi thought that his little apprentice might not be as gentle and harmless as he imagined.However, the impressions accumulated over the years cannot be changed in an instant. His character is pure and kind, and he was well protected by his master and brother since he was a child.Therefore, Lu Chi only thought that Xie Lannan suddenly changed suddenly and his mood was unstable.

He packed dry food and clothes for Xie Lannan, and sent him down the mountain the next day.The mountain road after the snow was not easy to walk, so he sent Xie Lannan all the way to the foot of Qingcheng Mountain to say goodbye to him.

"If you are in danger, just send a letter, and the master will come to help you." In the end, he was worried about leaving his Xie Lannan.

When the young man rode away, he looked back at his master. The young man in plain robes and white clothes almost merged with the snow scene behind him. Xie Lannan felt that as long as he was a little farther away, he would lose sight of his master. up.But he still turned his head and left, and the horseshoe left a series of distant footprints on the school.

With his deep-rooted hatred and ambition/desire, perhaps only the Bloody Sea of ​​Corpses in the Lek Palace can calm him down a bit.

This time, it will be three years before we meet again.

The Sword Tasting Conference every five years is a major event for young knights in the Jianghu. Whenever the Sword Tasting Conference is held, young talents from all sects will be sent to participate. With the intention of making a name for the sect.This year's Sword Tasting Conference was held in Beiwu's Shenshui Villa, because within the territory of Beiwu, as long as there are some famous sects in Beiwu, all the famous sects in Beiwu sent people, and Tai Nianmen was no exception.

Lu Chi had already participated in the last sword tasting conference. This time, the brother in charge asked him to bring a few nephews down the mountain to see it.

At the Sword Tasting Conference, there was a gathering of heroes and talents. The nephews and nephews grew up in Tainian Mountain. They only practiced swords and practiced painstakingly. They had never seen such a grand event.Lu Chi wasn't that strict temperament, seeing them curious, he didn't reprimand and urge them, and only led them to sit down when they had seen enough.

After sitting down, he keenly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere.

The competition rules of the Sword Tasting Conference are very simple. If talented disciples from various sects want to compete, they only need to go to the Sword Tasting Stage to invite people to compete.Most of the visitors to the Sword Tasting Conference are people who want to make a name for themselves, and generally they will not reject other people's discussions.

Right now, there is only one person standing on the sword-tasting stage, with a beautiful appearance, green clothes and black hair, and rings and jingle bells, as if dressed in a foreign land.The man looked around, covered his lips and gave a delicate smile, and said: "My family is new to Jianghu, and Junxiu doesn't know all the sects well, so I would like to ask talented people to give me some advice."

Although the voice of the man in Tsing Yi was brighter than that of ordinary men, it was indeed a man's voice.

There was quite a commotion all around, and the people in the back seat started to discuss quietly.

"Even the proud disciple of Zen Master Shangshan in Lingtai Temple was defeated by the devil in that Lizhu Palace. I think that Junxiu present here may not have the strength to fight against him."

"Could it be that the sword tasting conference is going to be robbed of the limelight by this devil?"

Now that the four kingdoms are separated, the world has not yet been unified, and the boundary between good and evil is still unclear, but the Lek Palace is a very magical palace in the eyes of people in the Jianghu.Because the people in the Palace of Li have always been surly and aggressive, with fierce attacks, one person once looked at the people of the Palace more than once, but his eyes were gouged out, and the skills and moves of the Palace of Li were abnormal, which was not accepted by the righteous way of the world. happiness.

The man in Tsing Yi slowly stroked his sleeves and sighed: "Could it be that none of the many respectable families present dare to come up to compete with the slave family?"

One of the nephews brought by Lu Chi named Cen Xun was the most impulsive. Hearing other people's private whispers and seeing the arrogant attitude of the man in Tsing Yi, he couldn't sit still and jumped up to the sword tasting platform in a few steps.

"I miss Men Cen Xun too much, please enlighten me."

The man in Tsing Yi giggled, and his face became softer and softer: "It turns out that he is a disciple of Tai Nian Sect, the first Taoist sect in Beiwu. This side of the slave's house—be polite." After finishing the sentence, he made claws with five fingers, and grabbed Cen Xun. .Fortunately, Cen Xun had been prepared for a long time, he drew his sword to block, blocking the attack of the man in Tsing Yi.

Lu Chi frowned. He could tell that Cen Xun was no match for the man in Tsing Yi, but seeing the man in Tsing Yi's moves, they were very unpredictable.Moreover, the inner strength of the man in Tsing Yi is also deeper than that of Cen Xun, watching him strike the palm, the wind of the palm is fierce, it is clear that he has not weak inner strength.Sure enough, within thirty moves, Cen Xun was defeated.

Although unwilling, Cen Xun still admits that he is inferior to others.When he leaned on his sword and walked down the stage, the man in Tsing Yi suddenly smiled coquettishly, raised his sleeves and said in a gentle voice: "Mr.

Lu Chi's eyes froze, and he drew his sword out of its sheath. Several slender silver needles hit the sword body and fell off one after another.

"My nephew has already conceded defeat. I'm afraid it's not good for you to hurt people secretly like this."

Now all the Jianghu people present couldn't stand it any longer, they all clamored that the disciples of the Demon Palace used hidden weapons to hurt people, and they shot fiercely, and they wanted to take him down together.

The man in Tsing Yi laughed more wantonly: "How many amazing and stunning people can I meet in the Dao Sword Competition? It turns out that the so-called decent families here are nothing more than a bunch of rabble."

Now, the owner of Shenshui Villa couldn't sit still anymore. The elegant middle-aged man cupped his hands at the man in Tsing Yi and said, "The young and handsome people invited by the Sword Tasting Conference don't care about their status. They only need to be upright. Your style of work is disgusting. Please forgive the small land of Shenshui Villa, which cannot accommodate such talents as yours."

The man in Tsing Yi hid his face and made a gesture of grievance, but he was not polite when he said: "I have said so much, but it is just a fig leaf for the current situation of your sect's withering disciples. Among so many sects, there is no one who can Competing with the servants."

After hearing these words, the people present were even more excited, wishing to kill the devil who uttered wild words on the spot.But the man in Tsing Yi lightly said his farewell after lighting the fire, and then left with light kung fu on his toes, and disappeared within a few breaths.There are few people in this world who can match such extreme lightness kung fu.

After being disturbed by the people in Tsing Yi, most of the people had no intention of continuing to participate.Although the man in Tsing Yi is arrogant, what he said is the truth. Among the young generation today, no one can defeat this man in Tsing Yi. This sword tasting competition seems to be to make the Lek Palace famous. A slap in the face.

On the way back, the atmosphere was very gloomy, especially Cen Xun, he was a joking person, and he was rarely so depressed.

Lu Chi explained: "This experience is not a bad thing, let you know that there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky, and you will not slack off in martial arts in the future."

"Master, I understand what you mean." Cen Xun gritted his teeth, "But I'm still not reconciled, if I lose to others, it's fine, but, I lost to the devil."

"If that's the case, you need to work harder." Lu Chi looked at him and said softly.

When Cen Xun saw those peach blossom eyes looking at him tenderly, his heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly avoided his gaze, not even knowing what he said.There is only one thought in his mind, the uncle's eyes are too good-looking.

In the evening, Lu Chi and his party arrived at the foot of Tainian Mountain.In the evening sky, the sky is full of sunset glow, and the clouds as far as the eye can see are dyed bright red, which is eye-catching.Lu Chi felt strange when he was halfway up the mountain. If he had been here in the past, there would have been disciples guarding the mountain gate to check, but up to now, not a single disciple of Tai Nianzong had appeared.

Fearing that there was something wrong with the sect, several people thought of this at the same time in their hearts, and their work quickly picked up.Outside the main hall of Tainianzong, the disciples guarding the gate turned into a group of people dressed in exotic costumes.Seeing Lu Chi and his party, they all drew their swords to face each other.

Lu Chi didn't even look at them, and in a few breaths, he passed several people and broke into the hall alone.

Then, he saw a man in plain robes and white clothes slowly stabbing the sword stuck in the chest of a disciple of Tainianzong. Blood gushed out from his chest and splashed onto his white hands like jade, like an opening A showy flower.Hearing movement, he looked up.

A face exactly like Lu Chi's was revealed.
