Hefangzhai in the capital is a well-known pastry shop with a century-old brand and a good reputation. However, no one has ever imagined that such a seemingly ordinary pastry shop would be a stronghold of Wanmei Villa in the capital.

When I came to Hefangzhai, Tingge went to the yard behind Hefangzhai under the guidance of the boss.

There are a few sweet-scented osmanthus trees planted in the backyard. It is the season when the flowers are blooming, and the petals are fluttering down with the wind. The whole yard is filled with a faint fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.

Under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, a white figure stood with his hands behind his back. The slender figure was elegant and handsome, holding a long sword gleaming with chill in his right hand, which was cold and awe-inspiring, as cold as ice and snow.

"elder brother."

Ximen Chuuxue suddenly turned his head and saw Ting Ge standing not far away, with a faint smile in his eyes: "Ting Ge, you have come to the capital."

"Yeah," Tingge nodded, and walked over, "I heard that you are going to compete with Lord Baiyun, I'm very worried."

As soon as Baiyun City Lord was mentioned, a fiery light appeared in Ximen Chuuxue's eyes, which was something Tingge had never seen in his eyes, and only appeared when talking about swords: "There will be a battle between us. "

she knows.

Yu Luocha also knew.

With Ximen Chuuxue's temperament, even if Ye Gucheng doesn't invite a fight, sooner or later, Ximen Chuuxue will challenge Ye Gucheng.

So when they heard the news that Ye Gucheng was going to compete with him, they were just worried, but they never thought of stopping it.

Ting Ge was silent for a while, and said, "Father is here too."

"...Really." Ximen Chuuxue's face was still so indifferent, no emotion could be seen.

He grew up alone with Yu Luocha since he was a child, and grew up alone in Wanmei Villa. Apart from his servants, he was accompanied only by swords. That's why Ximen Chuuxue developed a character of being very indifferent to things and people. .

It's not that he doesn't understand that Yu Luocha actually loves his son very much, but this love is different from Yu Luocha's unreasonable doting on Tingge.

Yu Luocha wanted him to inherit the Western Demon Cult, but he only wanted to practice swordsmanship.

Therefore, he and Yu Luocha are destined to be different.

Indifference is also inevitable.

"Father is very worried about you, brother."

In this situation, listening to the song is helpless, obviously father cares about elder brother very much, and elder brother also cares about father, but one of the two is used to giving orders and aloof, while the other is indifferent and indifferent. There is no way to get along well.

"...Since he's here, you can stay with him if you have nothing to do." Ximen Chuuxue's voice was clear and light, and it didn't sound warm, but upon listening carefully, one could find the traces of concern hidden in the words, "Recently, dragons and snakes are mixed in the capital. You are new to the rivers and lakes. You have no experience, so it's better to be careful." Although Tingge's martial arts are not bad, he has a pure personality and no experience in the rivers and lakes. It is always easier to lose money in business, and he is worried that she will easily have problems in the capital alone.With Jade Raksha protecting her, even the emperor couldn't listen to the song at all.

"Father has been sending secret guards to follow me, brother, you don't have to worry about me."

Although those hidden guards usually only play the role of guiding her...

"Brother, how sure are you against Ye Gucheng?"

"..." Ximen Chuuxue didn't answer, but only clenched the sword in his hand, and after a long time, he said calmly, "That's not important."

"..." Well, she knew that for Ximen Fuxue, the most important thing was the sword fight, winning or losing didn't matter at all!Even for people like them, if they lose, they will die!

Although listening to the song, she still wanted to ask more questions, but when she thought of what Yu Luocha said, she still kept her mouth shut, and said: "I will go on the day of the decisive battle."

Ximen Fuxue nodded slightly: "You can take a look."

---------------

The day of the decisive battle was approaching, Ximen Chuuxue needed to meditate, listening to music would not disturb him, so he went out in the afternoon.

In restaurants, teahouses, news of the decisive battle between Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng on September [-]th was circulating in the streets and alleys, and there were bets in casinos of all sizes.

Listening to the song along the way, the more I listen to it, the more unhappy I feel. Her brother has always been obsessed with swordsmanship. How sacred is it to him to compete with Ye Gucheng?

She has never seen Ye Gucheng, and she doesn't know what kind of person Ye Gucheng is who is named "Sword Immortal" in the legend, but she originally thought that since Ye Gucheng has the name "Sword Immortal", he should be the same as her brother. Sincerely in the way of the sword.

However, based on what I saw today, the news of my brother's sword fight with Ye Gucheng spread so quickly, it must be artificial...

If the truth is what father said, then Ye Gucheng...

It is indeed lost!

"Ximen listening to music?"

A surprised voice sounded.

People who know her?

Listening to the song and turning around, I saw a suave young man standing at the window on the second floor of the restaurant, looking at her with a look of surprise on his face. The strangest thing was that he had two beards above his lips, which were as long as his eyebrows. Really exactly the same.

"Lu Xiaofeng?"

"So it's really you." That person was Lu Xiaofeng, and with a hearty smile, he suddenly jumped down from the second floor, his figure flickered, and he was already standing steadily in front of Ting Ge, and said with a smile, "You've come to the capital. But Ximen Chuuxue is also here?"

Listening to the song and nodding, Lu Xiaofeng is one of Ximen Chuuxue's few good friends. Although he is a bit of a scumbag towards women, he is very loyal, emphasizing love and righteousness, and is very suitable to be a friend. "Brother is here, you If you want to see him, I can take you there." She was not worried that Lu Xiaofeng would betray Ximen Chuuxue.

"Okay." Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, and he nodded repeatedly, "I've been looking for Ximen Chuuxue for a long time, but I can't find him, it's really worrying."

"Wanmei Villa has a stronghold in the capital. If you don't know it, you won't be able to find him."

Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback: "The stronghold?"

"It's Hefangzhai." Tingge didn't hide it.

Lu Xiaofeng looked surprised: "Hefangzhai is actually the property of Wanmei Villa?"

"Ah."

"No wonder I haven't found Ximen Chuuxue." Who would have thought that Ximen Chuuxue would hide in a pastry shop after entering the capital?Lu Xiaofeng nodded, and changed the topic, "I mean sister Tingge, why are you wandering outside alone if you aren't with Ximen Chuuxue?"

"Brother, you need to calm down." Tingge answered concisely.

"Then where are you going?"

"Just walk around. By the way," Tingge suddenly remembered something, "I heard that Ye Gucheng took the initiative to invite my brother to fight. Why did Ye Gucheng suddenly take the initiative to invite my brother to fight?"

"Ahaha..." Lu Xiaofeng rubbed his beard awkwardly, and said with a dry smile, "Maybe it's because Ximen Chuuxue's reputation spread to Feixian Island in the South China Sea..."

Tingge stared at him fixedly, without speaking.

It wasn't until Lu Xiaofeng couldn't stop laughing that Tingge said calmly: "You are guilty."

Lu Xiaofeng: "..."

"Sure enough, you did something good." Tingge calmly concluded, she knew that this matter had something to do with Lu Xiaofeng, a troublemaker everywhere!

Lu Xiaofeng stroked his beard, and there was a little guilt in his voice: "I just told the truth when Ye Gucheng asked me if I could catch Ximen Chuuxue's sword after I caught Ye Gucheng's Flying Immortal."

"You caught the Flying Immortal of Ye Gucheng?"

"It's just a coincidence that Ye Gucheng didn't put in all his strength at that time." Lu Xiaofeng patted his chest with a look of fear, "I almost became a dead phoenix."

"That's such a pity." Why didn't Ye Gucheng kill you, Lu Xiaoji, who was causing trouble everywhere.

"Hey..." Lu Xiaofeng couldn't laugh or cry.

"How did you meet Ye Gucheng?" Didn't you say that Ye Gucheng usually only stays in Baiyun City on Feixian Island, and won't leave the city easily?

"Oh, I met Ye Gucheng in Nanwang Mansion. It is said that the son of Nanwang is Ye Gucheng's apprentice."

Nanwang Mansion?Prince Nan?

Listening to the song, if you think about it, could it be that what father said, Ye Gucheng's conspiracy is related to the Nanwang Mansion?

"Sister listening to the song?"

"It's okay," Ting Ge said, "Are you friends with Ye Gucheng?" This Lu Xiaoji doesn't know what kind of luck it is, it seems that he can meet some friends or rotten peach blossoms wherever he goes.

"Probably." Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "That's why I'm worried." If two friends were to fight to the death, one of them must die, how could he not be worried?

"It's thanks to you for connecting them." Although she also knew that this matter had nothing to do with Lu Xiaofeng...

"Eh..." Lu Xiaofeng could only smile wryly.

"However, for the sake of getting to know each other, let me remind you a little bit."

"what?"

"Brother is not a person who likes to publicize. Ye Gucheng should not be such a person. The news of the decisive battle between them spread so quickly. Didn't you find something strange in it?"

Lu Xiaofeng was stunned: "How is it possible...Ximen Chuuxue and Ye Gucheng are not that kind of people..."

"They're not, but it doesn't mean others aren't." Ting Ge interrupted him expressionlessly, "Because of this incident, the capital is now mixed with dragons and snakes, and a puddle of water has been muddied. Once the water is muddy, there will naturally be people fishing in troubled waters .”

"Think about it, where is the final battle they agreed to, is it really just Ye Gucheng's whim?"

"..."

"That's all I've said, and I'm taking my leave."

"Hey..." Lu Xiaofeng, who had just regained his composure, could only smile wryly when he saw the figure leaving after listening to the song.

What a bad habit to talk halfway!

The author has something to say: There is no chance to let the city lord go... Forget it, anyway, he will appear in the final battle...
