After Han Tiexin returned to his residence, the old man Xuegu was waiting for him in his room looking out the window with his hands behind his back.His expression was a little more stern than usual, and his serious face looked even more alarming at this time.

Han Tiexin swallowed, and called, "Master."

"You're back." The old man in Xuegu turned half of his face, his cloudy expression made the surrounding air instantly dull, "Where did you go?"

Han Tiexin knew that since Master sent moths to find him, he would naturally know where he was going, so he stopped hiding it and said truthfully, "I went to Qingping Sect."

The old man Xuegu asked again: "What do you teach at Qingping?"

Han Tiexin replied: "Qilin Villa bought the disciples of Qingping Sect to inquire about the news, and now they already know that the Taoyao Sword in Xiao Fengling's hand is Bai Zhuxing's accessory Chop Wind."

"So what?" The old man Xuegu said nonchalantly, "That guy Du Xun should have thought about today when he took away the Zhanfeng Sword. I think it's because of Qingping that he has been safe for so many years. taught!"

Han Tiexin knew that the old man Xuegu had hatred towards Qingping Sect because of his senior brother Liang Xiao, and everything he said at the moment was equivalent to adding fuel to the flames, so he simply shut up and acted like a mute.Xuegu Laoren scolded Du Xun and Qingpingjiao, then suddenly closed his mouth, after a long silence, he spoke again, his voice had returned to calm, but there was a bit of desolation and unbearable in that calm.

"Tie Xin, do you really miss that Xiao Fengling so much?"

Han Tiexin replied: "Master, rest assured, since I have promised to go back to Snow Valley with you to concentrate on sword practice, I will definitely keep my word."

"You didn't answer my question." Seeing Han Tiexin's evasion, the old man Xuegu asked again, "I'm asking you, do you really care so much about that Han Tiexin?"

"This..." Han Tiexin bit his lips, "I really can't forget him now..."

Before Han Tiexin could finish his words, the old man Xuegu stepped forward and grabbed his shoulder, his thin fingers were almost embedded in Han Tiexin's flesh: "Listen to Master, forget about that person, don't look for that person again, Cut off any contact with him and don't have any more contact with him! Master will not harm you, you must be obedient! Don't be charged with crimes!"

Han Tiexin was taken aback by the impulsive behavior of the old man in Xuegu. In his impression, the master is immortal, and always looks confident that everything is under control. He has never seen him lose his composure before. Called out: "Master, you..."

The old man Xuegu seemed to have realized his gaffe, and let go of Han Tiexin's shoulders.Han Tiexin sighed silently, cutting off any connection with Xiao Fengling, how could it be possible, the child in his belly is the connection we have been cutting off all our lives, but the resolute attitude of the old man Xuegu still aroused Han Tiexin's suspicion, he whispered He asked, "Master, what happened?"

The old man Xuegu didn't answer his question immediately, but said meaningfully: "Do you know that Meng Liang died, and died in Qingping Sect."

Han Tiexin was not surprised by this news. After all, Meng Liang's poison had already invaded his internal organs. Even the Immortal Da Luo couldn't recover from it. Death was just a matter of time for him.

The old man Xuegu seemed to have guessed what Han Tiexin was thinking, and continued: "Meng Liang died of poison."

"Oh?"

The old man Xuegu said: "When I went to see him before, I saw that the poison he had suffered and his internal strength should last for half a month. Now he died in less than ten days. It was obviously homicide."

"Master means that Xiao Fengling killed Meng Liang?" Han Tiexin said, "Meng Liang was disrespectful to his master and killed his senior brother. He even tried to kill Xiao Fengling together. Xiao Fengling couldn't wait for him to die from poison. It's reasonable to have him."

The old man Xuegu sneered: "Then why didn't he kill him sooner or later, why did he want to kill at this time?"

Han Tiexin felt that there was something in Master's words, so he asked, "What does Master mean?"

"Didn't you ask me to check the Nebula Gate?"

When Han Tiexin heard about Xingyunmen, his heart skipped a beat, and he asked slightly tremblingly as expected: "Master... what did you find?"

"I sent spies from Yufenglou to find the old site of Xingyunmen. Because the Xingyunmen sect is too small, with only one master and two apprentices, the old site has long been abandoned. I also sent people to investigate the surrounding area, and finally from the mouth of the former neighbors, it was roughly marked. Du Xun's appearance." The old man Xuegu took out a piece of paper with a portrait from his sleeve while talking, "Come and take a look, but is it the same as what you described to me back then?"

Han Tiexin grabbed the portrait, opened it tremblingly, fixed his eyes on the man in the painting, and gradually clenched the hand holding the paper, rattling with the whitened knuckles.

"It's him! It's him!" Han Tiexin's face was full of murderous intent, his teeth were clenched tightly, and he could only make an indistinct voice from between his teeth, "He is the chief culprit who caused the tragic death of my whole village back then! "

At this time, Han Tiexin's mind suddenly remembered the unnamed spiritual tablet that Xiao Fengling and Xiao Fengling saw that day in the secret room of Qingping Sect.At first, Han Tiexin thought it was set up for teaching disciples, and wondered why there was no name on the spirit tablet, but now thinking about it, wasn't it set up for the villagers of his own village who were killed by Du Xun.

"That bastard who will avenge his kindness is also assigned to the villagers to set up tablets? Do you want to seek spiritual salvation? It's easy to think, the crimes you committed, the souls you bear, you will never be able to wash away your life!" , "Why? Exactly why! We have no grievances against you, and we saved your life. Why do you want to repay us with kindness and kill us all!"

The old man Xuegu sighed and said: "Du Xun got the secret book of Zhanfengjianhe Baizhuxing back then, and he became the target of public criticism all at once. He should be very clear that once he is discovered, the weapons and swordsmanship that everyone in the martial arts want will be in his hands. In his hands, he will definitely be hunted down by people from all walks of life in the martial arts world, worse than Bai Zhuxing. So he must keep his whereabouts secret."

"So he just lured horse thieves to kill us?!" Han Tiexin roared with red eyes.

The old man Xuegu said calmly: "The dead are the ones who can keep the most secrets in this world, and the dead are the ones that can be believed the most. Du Xun can only rest assured that his whereabouts will not be leaked if there are no survivors left in your village."

Han Tiexin lowered his head, and said in a daze: "Master knew that Xiao Fengling's master was the murderer of my family, so he told me not to associate with him?"

The old man Xuegu's face was a bit complicated, his lips trembled a few times, and he let out a breath slowly: "Actually... Du Xun... is not just Xiao Fengling's master."
