If Yan Liushuang came to this island alone, after defeating the little old man, she would have to go through the dense forest to see what the lights she saw in mid-air were all about. After all, he came to find an apprentice.

Breaking in with such an apprentice, if they are besieged, it will be quite troublesome.

So after she defeated the little old man who wanted their mentor and apprentice's life, she simply turned around and left.

No matter what, she had to send Gong Jiu back first.

After tossing all night, it was almost dawn when I was really ready to go back.

After Yan Liushuang sat down on the boat, she first counted the time it took her to come here, roughly judged the location of the island in the South China Sea, and planned to go back and tell Ye Gucheng about it.

After finishing the calculation, she finally found a space and asked Gong Jiu, "Why did you look so frightened when you saw King Nan?"

Gong Jiu lowered her head and remained silent for a long time, until she thought he was going to remain silent until the end and did not answer before she spoke: "...Actually, I don't know him."

Yan Liushuang: "...?!" I don't know you and you react so much, do I look easy to deceive? !

"Really," he whispered, "I just saw his clothes..."

"His clothes?" Yan Liushuang frowned, "So you do have something to do with him? It's just that you haven't seen him before?"

"Yeah." Gong Jiu nodded, "I should call him Uncle Wang."

Although Yan Liushuang guessed the identity that Gong Jiu had concealed from Nan Wang's statement early in the morning, but when she really heard him admit it, she still felt a little complicated.

"Then your father...?" She didn't know much about the royal family.

"My father is King Taiping," he said.

In the following time, Gong Jiu finally told Yan Liushuang why he ran away from home and didn't want to go back, and hated his father so much.

"My mother was killed by him." He gritted his teeth, "So I must take revenge."

Yan Liushuang didn't believe his words, but she was a little strange: "How did your mother... die?"

This topic might be too heavy for Gong Jiu, so he covered his face and twitched his shoulders for a while before continuing.

He said that he saw her being forced to drink poisoned wine by King Taiping.

Yan Liushuang was silent for a moment, and then said: "Is that when you left home?"

King Taiping did not leave the capital early to go to the fiefdom like King Nan. He was not as talented as King Nan, so he was not so feared by the emperor, so he became a queen and remained an idle prince in the capital.

Gong Jiu grew up in the capital until she was five years old, and after witnessing her mother's death, she left that home.

He met Yan Feng on the way to the south, and with the heart of going as far as possible, he followed him all the way to the South China Sea, and then stayed for five years.

Five years is not a long time, but it is not short either.

In the past five years, he has reminded himself all the time, you have to remember how your mother died, and you have to go back and take revenge.And he was able to practice the knife like this in such a short period of time because of this belief that has been supporting him.

Yesterday he practiced the last move of the first half of the saber technique Yan Liushuang gave him, and he was full of excitement, so he decided to go to Feixian Island to find her and tell her the good news, but he didn't want to meet his own in the city lord's mansion. Uncle Wang.

He had never met Nan Wang before, but the facial features of his biological brothers were always similar, and coupled with the clothes on Nan Wang, he panicked instantly after realizing it.

He instinctively thought that it was King Taiping who had found out that he was in the South China Sea, and then entrusted the King of Nan, who had his fief in Lingnan, to send him back.

That's why he ran away in such a panic.

"...I don't want to go back." He suddenly grabbed Yan Liushuang's arm tightly, "Master, I really don't want to go back."

"I know." Yan Liushuang patted his head with his free hand, "Actually, Nan Wang's going to Feixian Island has nothing to do with you, it's because you think too much."

Gong Jiu opened his mouth, as if he couldn't believe it.And she sighed and continued: "Really, he came to pay homage to my master. My master saved his life before, but you reacted like that yesterday, and he probably already guessed your identity. "

"Then... what should I do then?" He panicked again, "I don't want to go back...I don't want to go back!"

Seeing that he was about to get excited again, Yan Liushuang hastily held him down.

Yan Liushuang said: "This is the end of the matter, let's wait until we see King Nan."

The best way is of course to let Nan Wang pretend not to know anything, but she thinks it is unlikely that Nan Wang will agree.

On the side of King Taiping, I am afraid that sooner or later he will know that his son is in the South China Sea.

What Yan Liushuang thought was that if King Taiping really poisoned his wife, no matter what, she would not let Gong Jiu go back; but if there is any misunderstanding, this is also a good opportunity to untie Gong Jiu's knot .

In the past five years, he has pushed himself too hard. Apart from eating and sleeping, he practiced knives and squeezed his talent like crazy.

She didn't know the reason before, but now that she knows, she still hopes that he can come out.

But when Gong Jiu heard what she said, she misunderstood.

He lay on her lap crying and asked her: "Does Master not want me anymore?"

Yan Liushuang: "..." How did you come to this conclusion?

"Master..." Probably because there was no one else at the moment, he was crying more and more sadly, "Wuuu...Master, don't drive me away..."

"Did I tell you to drive you away?" Yan Liushuang really didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "I just think that since this matter can no longer be covered up, Nan Wang also knows your identity, so instead of letting him secretly send someone to investigate you, Might as well meet and talk to him openly and honestly."

"It's best if he doesn't care about your father and son's affairs. If he wants to—" she paused at this point, "then I'm naturally on your side."

"Really?" Gong Jiu asked.

"Did I lie to you?" she asked back.

She thought that Gong Jiu should be at ease after the teacher and student finished talking so frankly, but unexpectedly he bit his lip and said in a low voice after a while: "I lied."

Yan Liushuang: "???"

He turned his head: "...Master told me that he would be back soon, but ended up staying in Baiyun City for three days."

Yan Liushuang was speechless for a moment, and then said solemnly: "That is a special situation."

"What's the special situation?" He raised a teary face and asked her.

"The special situation is..." It's over, she really can't explain to a child who is just ten years old what is the meaning of love and lust.

Looking at her expression, Gong Jiu actually guessed the reason.

He was never stupid, but he was a little too sensitive about his mother's death and his own identity, and the rest of the time he was always terribly calm.

But Yan Liushuang didn't say anything, so he pretended not to know, and continued to put on his innocent expression to soften her heart: "Then Master, don't go away for so long, okay?"

Yan Liushuang thought about it and found it a bit difficult.

All she could say was, "I'll try my best."

Gong Jiu: "..."

When the two returned to Feixian Island from that unnamed deserted island, it was already daylight.

Yan Liushuang stopped at the ferry, and before she had time to disembark, she heard someone on the shore exclaim Miss Shuang!

"Miss Shuang! Miss Shuang, you are back!"

She raised her head and glanced, and found that it was the commander of the guards of Baiyun City.

"What's wrong?" she asked.

The commander of the guards rushed in front of her, panting and said: "The city lord heard that you went to chase after the ninth son alone, and he was about to die of anxiety!"

She smiled: "Where is Ah Cheng now? I happen to have something to look for him."

"The city lord is—"

"A Shuang!"

Before he finished speaking, Ye Gucheng rushed over after receiving the news.

As the lord of a city, Ye Gucheng seldom uses lightness kung fu in front of people on weekdays, but this time he flew over directly from the gate of the city, and when he landed in front of her, he still had a look on his face that he usually doesn't see once a year. The color of anxiety.

Seeing how nervous he was, of course Yan Liushuang immediately told him that she was fine.

"Even if you want to chase, you should find a boat and ask someone to accompany you." He hadn't slept all night, his eyes were blue, and his tone was serious when he spoke, obviously really angry and frightened by her.

"I'll definitely listen to you next time." She blinked and assured him, "And I'm fine, Xiao Jiu is fine."

Ye Gucheng thought to himself that he didn't care if Gong Jiu was okay, not to mention if Gong Jiu didn't run around, how could there be so many things?

So at this moment, he only finds Gong Jiu even more unpleasant.

In fact, after Yan Liushuang left, Nan Wang asked him about Gong Jiu again.

Contacting Gong Jiu's reaction when he saw Nan Wang, Ye Gucheng almost guessed Gong Jiu's real life experience.

He didn't know what was hidden in it, but looking at Nanwang's posture, it was obvious that he planned to investigate it carefully.

Ye Gucheng didn't like Gong Jiu, but he knew that Yan Liushuang valued this apprentice.

So after confirming that she was fine, he told her his guess.

"I already know that," she said, "I'll take care of it, you don't have to worry."

"Is he really Nanwang's nephew?" Ye Gucheng asked.

"Yes." Yan Liushuang followed him into the city while nodding, "I'll talk about this later, I have something very important to tell you."

It is not a trivial matter for her to describe it as very important, so Ye Gucheng frowned almost immediately: "What's the matter?"

Yan Liushuang said in a deep voice: "I went after Xiaojiu last night, headed all the way to the southwest, and landed on an island."

Ye Gucheng has never been more familiar with the islands in the South China Sea than she is. Hearing what she said, the first reaction is that there should be desert islands in that direction.

"Yes, I thought it was a deserted island." Yan Liushuang said, "But I met a master on the island."

"A master?" Ye Gucheng was very concerned, "How tall is it?"

"Well... you and my dad together probably can't beat it."

This statement made Ye Gucheng silent for a moment, but after all, he had always known the gap between himself and her, so he slowed down after a while and continued: "Did you fight?"

She nodded: "He recognized my identity, and he was afraid that I would reveal the secret of the deserted island after I came back, so he wanted to kill me and Xiaojiu, but he miscalculated my strength, and finally I crippled my martial arts."

In the whole world, she is the only one who can speak so easily and naturally of such a thrilling event in the eyes of ordinary people.

When Ye Gucheng heard this, he couldn't help pulling the corners of his lips.

And she continued: "I took Xiao Jiu with me, and it was inconvenient to find out what was going on on that island, so I sent him back first, but this matter is too unusual, I think we have to go there later one trip."

Gong Jiu was walking beside her quietly and listening to her and Ye Gucheng tell about what happened last night, when she heard this, she almost gritted her teeth.

But he has no way to refute, compared to Ye Gucheng who is already excellent in swordsmanship, he really has no right to stand beside Yan Liushuang to resolve this matter with her, instead he will hold her back...

He was not happy, but Ye Gucheng was happy.

Ye Gucheng nodded in response: "Okay."

At this time, he hadn't thought about how much power was hidden behind that deserted island, let alone that the names of the two of them would directly spread to the South China Sea because of this trip to the deserted island, and they would become famous in the Central Plains martial arts.

So much so that in the following years, when people mentioned the place of South China Sea, they would still immediately think of the two of them, and called them "the couple who each use swords".

Gong Jiu: Regret to the point of deformation.

Ye Gucheng: Glad.
