"Sit down!" said the big butler to Chen Tian, and as his body shook, the empty sleeve of his right arm couldn't help but sway.

"Ba Lao!" Chen Tian said hello with a smile, then walked over and sat down!

Sure enough, the master that Ba Lao wanted to introduce to himself was the mysterious person from last night.

"Last night, thank you seniors for your help. Chen Tian thanked him.

Because the lights on the long street were dim last night, Chen Tian couldn't see the mysterious person's face carefully. At this time, I looked carefully, only to find that this mysterious person had reached the age of about seventy, and a pair of sword eyebrows were slightly condensed, just looking at it would give people a sense of oppression that was not angry and arrogant.

In addition to these, as for the momentum of a martial arts practitioner on the mysterious man's body, Chen Tian only felt a trace of it, but it was this unique aura that suddenly made Chen Tian shake and think of someone again.

If he hadn't guessed wrong, he already knew the mysterious identity!

The mysterious man listened to Chen Tian's thanks, but did not answer, but his slightly sharp eyes stayed on Chen Tian for a few seconds.

"Chen Tian, I heard that you cut off the three fingers of the old devil last night? Haha, in your Huaxia words, it is indeed a hero out of a young man. When he cut off one of the old man's arms, you cut off three of his fingers, and you can be regarded as helping me avenge it!" said the big butler with a smile, easing the atmosphere around him a little.

I heard that I heard that it was a fart, it must be that this mysterious person in front of me told the butler of Ba University about last night's events!

"Ba Lao joked, it was just luck last night, and besides, it was this senior who helped me block the attack of the old devil ninety percent, so I had a chance to succeed!" Chen Tiandao.

"You're good!" said the mysterious man, complimenting inexplicably.

The butler laughed again, as if the mysterious man was praising him instead of Chen Tian, "Haha, let me introduce you, this is ......"

The butler didn't finish his words, Chen Tian smiled and said, "This must be the predecessor of the 'Demon Knife' who used to be famous on the island." ”

"Oh?" the mysterious man turned his head and glanced at Chen Tian again, "You know?"

"I don't know, it's pure guessing, but the younger generation believes that I didn't guess wrong. Chen Tian said with confidence.

"Why?" asked the butler and the mysterious man at the same time, obviously they all wanted to know where Chen Tian recognized the identity of the demon knife.

That's right, this mysterious person is really the legend of the island at that time - the demon knife. It is rumored that the demon knife is dead, but now it seems that the rumors are obviously false and cannot be true. The real demon knife has been alive and well.

But over the years, since the rumor that the demon knife died, no one has seen the demon knife appear in person, which is indeed a bit strange. Could it be that since then, the demon knife has deliberately hidden his traces, and he doesn't know which ravine he hid in to cultivate?

"Demon Sword Senior, if you're curious about why I can guess your identity, then you have to answer me one more question. "Chen Tianshen mystical secret way.

The demon knife didn't know what Chen Tian was going to ask, but he still nodded.

Chen Tian asked: "Dare to ask the demon sword senior, have you been in the palace all these years?"

As soon as these words came out, whether it was Ba Lao or the demon knife, both of them were slightly surprised. Although neither of them answered anything, it was not difficult to see from their expressions that Chen Tian had guessed correctly again!

"How do you know this, have you seen me in the palace?" the demon knife couldn't help the curiosity in his heart and asked.

Chen Tian smiled and shook his head, "I haven't seen you, but you've seen me." Remember the last year when the emperor invited me to the palace for dinner, my senior should have been in the dark at that time, right?"

The demon knife was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled, "Haha, I know, it turned out to be because of that incident." You remember it well. ”

At that time, Chen Tian went to the palace to attend a family banquet with the old emperor, and at the banquet, Chen Tian felt that there was always a trace of breath wandering in the dark, as if there was always a pair of eyes behind his back. And when Chen Tian went to pursue that trace of aura, that trace of aura would disappear in an instant.

At that time, Chen Tian was still in the realm of transformation, and his grasp of the breath had not yet reached the current realm, so he could not find the person hiding in the dark according to the trace of the breath. However, according to his own deference, that person should also belong to the royal samurai group of the Shimawa Imperial Family, and his duty in hiding in the shadows is to protect the safety of the old emperor.

After figuring this out in his heart, Chen Tian was relieved at that time. However, just now, when Chen Tian came to the courtyard of the butler of Ba University, he felt a fluttering aura again, exactly the same as at the banquet in the palace at that time.

This aura emanated from the demon sword. Originally, when he fought the old demon with the demon knife last night, he should have discovered this, but the aura shown by the demon knife last night was not the feeling of being angry at all, but very weird and violent, Chen Tian really couldn't think of him as the person in the palace for a while.

Listening to Chen Tian's explanation, the demon knife shook his head, "Based on these alone, you can guess my identity?"

Chen Tian raised the corner of his eyes, and said: "Although these are not evidence, they are almost there." Knowing that the Demon Sword predecessor is a member of the Royal Samurai Order, then the next inference is easy. ”

"It is rumored that there has always been a holy warrior in the Royal Samurai Order, who is a master of the Heavenly and Human Realm. But how many people have been able to break through to the realm of heaven and man over the years? This point is naturally clearer than mine. Therefore, the Imperial Holy Warrior of the Royal Samurai Order is none other than you, it should be you, the predecessor of the Demon Sword. ”

Chen Tian paused, and then said: "And since you were rumored to have died, you have been staying in the palace to cultivate, what kind of place is the palace? How can outsiders enter casually? This also explains why no one has seen you all these years." Of course, these are all small clues, and the one who really betrayed your identity is still the demon knife Muramasa. ”

After listening to Chen Tian's story, the demon knife couldn't help but nod in approval: "You are indeed very smart and can grasp every detail." ”

Chen Tian shrugged his shoulders and didn't answer this question, but asked again: "There is one thing that juniors have never figured out, it is rumored that you already had the strength to break through to the Heaven and Man Realm twenty years ago, but last night I saw you fighting with that old devil, your strength does not seem to be like the Heaven and Man Realm!"

Mentioning this, the demon knife did not hide it, and admitted in person: "I am the Transformation Realm, not the Heaven and Man Realm. ”

"Oh?" Chen Tian was a little surprised, "Could it be that when you broke through the Heaven and Human Realm before, you really failed as rumored?"

The demon knife nodded, but he didn't answer, he seemed to recall the past, and his expression was a little indescribably complicated, there was disappointment, anger, and calm!

"Chen Tian, this matter ......" The big butler of Ba said, wanting to stop Chen Tian from asking on this question. But the demon knife waved his hand, regained his composure and said: "It's been so many years, and things have long passed, so there's nothing that can't be said." ”

After saying this, the demon knife got up and walked to a cherry blossom tree, left his back to Chen Tian and the big housekeeper, and then said, "That's right, I did fail." However, the biggest failure in my life is not that I failed to break through to the realm of heaven and man, but that I accepted the wrong apprentice. ”

"Accepted the wrong apprentice?" Chen Tian was slightly stunned, he really didn't know that the Demon Sword Master still had a successor.

At this time, the butler of Ba Da on the side said: "You have actually seen the master's apprentice, and you have also fought with him. ”

I've seen it, and I've fought it? Chen Tian was even more stunned! He turned his brain quickly, and finally locked on one of the people he knew, and couldn't help but be shocked.

"Could it be that the master's apprentice is the leader of the soul group, Muramasa?" asked Chen Tian.

One is called "Demon Knife" and the other is called "Muramasa", no matter which of these two names they are, they are all related to the Muramasa Demon Knife. If the disciples of the Demon Sword Master know each other, then apart from the leader of the Soul Group, Muramasa, it is estimated that there is no one else!

Then, the nod of the big butler confirmed Chen Tian's guess. The leader of the soul group is indeed a disciple of the demon sword. One is the leader of the Royal Samurai Order, responsible for protecting the royal family, but the other has formed a killer, and has even joined forces with the Umegawa family to assassinate the royal family again and again.

One to protect, one to kill, this thing is like the story of the police and the thief, it hurts to have nothing to say!

Then, the Demon Sword Master personally told the past of that year, and when Chen Tian listened to it, he suddenly understood why when he was a child, why Fu Tugong came back two days after leaving, he would say that sentence to himself: "The kid harms Lao Tzu, if you dare to do this to Lao Tzu in the future, Lao Tzu will blind himself with his own hands." ”

How cruel and heartbreaking this sentence is! Chen Tian has always been unable to understand why the Futu Guild said this, but now the answer is out!

It turned out that the demon sword twenty years ago did already have the strength to break through to the realm of heaven and man, and it was because he broke through two years later. But just when he broke through, a sudden change occurred! Muramasa, who was supposed to protect the demon sword, suddenly attacked his master and wanted to kill his master in one fell swoop.

As a result, the demon knife that was breaking through lost its mind in an instant after being hit, and almost went completely mad. But fortunately, his foundation is firm enough and thick enough, and at a critical moment, he forcibly pulled back his mind and blew away his apprentice Muramasa!

Of course, at that time, if the demon knife hurt the killer, the village would never be able to escape. It's a pity that the demon knife couldn't be used after all!

As for why Muramasa wants to attack the demon knife, in fact, the reason is very simple, I'm afraid no one will believe it when I say it, just because of a knife, that demon knife Muramasa!

Poked a rub, it turns out that this is the way it is. It seems that Fu Tugong at that time must have known about this, so he said the sentence angrily: "The kid harms Lao Tzu"!

Being betrayed by an apprentice who he has always trusted, or even his son, the pain can be imagined!
