Thousands of miles away, there is a quiet village, where people come and go, but there is not a single modern car, not even a motorcycle or a bicycle, and everyone walks on their legs.

The clothes worn by the pedestrians are also different from those of many urban people today, but rather quite ancient.

On the edge of the village was a large ancient manor, and in one of the courtyards of the manor, a young man was standing with his eyes closed.

The young man looked young, only about twenty-five or sixteen years old, dressed in a navy blue robe, and his long black hair stood out with a dark hairpin on top of his head. The young man's face was angular and resolute.

In the corner of the courtyard, an unknown small tree stands alone. Most of the leaves of the small tree had already fallen, and there were less than a hundred small yellow leaves still shivering on the tree.

Suddenly, a strong cold wind whistled out of nowhere, causing the branches and leaves to sway violently. In the midst of the swaying, a dozen leaves broke away from the branches and flew towards the youth.

The young man's eyes still hadn't opened, but at some point there was a long sword in his hand, and the long sword, driven by the young man's right hand, drew a phantom-like net of light, and the piercing sound resounded throughout the courtyard. But the sound only lasted for half a second, and the young man put away his long sword and slowly opened his eyes.

As his eyes opened, the dozen or so leaves that flew towards him were each precisely split in two from the middle, turning into more than twenty and a half leaves and flying away into the distance.

With a creak, the wooden door of the courtyard was gently pushed open, and an old man in his fifties and sixties walked in briskly. The old man was dressed in a gray cloth robe, and his long hair was gray.

"Young master, the people of the Zhao family are here!" the old man said softly.

"Who's here?" the young man asked lightly.

"It's Zhao Pu, the second master of the Zhao family, and Zhao Xu, the young master!" the old man replied.

"I know, let him dry for an hour!" the young man said lightly.

"Yes!" said the old man, turning away.

In a living room, Zhao Yan's brother Zhao Xu was pacing back and forth restlessly, and beside him, a middle-aged man in a suit in his forties was sitting quietly, and the middle-aged man was three or four points similar to Zhao Xu's face. This middle-aged man is the younger brother of Zhao Shidao, the head of the Zhao family, and Zhao Xu's second uncle Zhao Pu.

"It's been almost two hours, why haven't the Jiang family come yet?" Zhao Xu said quite irritably.

Zhao Pu smiled faintly: "Needless to say, people are just deliberately hanging our uncle and nephew!"

Zhao Xu was a little angry, but he didn't dare to say cruel words, so he had to say viciously: "It's all to blame Zhao Yan for this slut, if it weren't for him, we would have fallen to this point?"

Zhao Pu's face was a little strange: "She's your sister!"

"I don't have such a sister, he is a wild seed born to a slave girl, a wild seed!" Zhao Xu scolded viciously.

Zhao Pu glanced at Zhao Xu and didn't say anything more. Although Zhao Pu is Zhao Xu's uncle, Zhao Xu, a gentleman who often does not buy his account, Zhao Pu simply lives an idle life. It's only this time that Zhao Shidao personally ordered, so he had to come and go this way.

The two waited for more than ten minutes, and finally there was a sound of footsteps from a distance, and Zhao Pu and Zhao Xu quickly stood up. After a while, I saw a handsome young man in a moon-white robe walk in with a cold face, it was the young man who had just practiced swords in the courtyard.

Without squinting, the young man walked to the throne and sat down.

"Zhao Pu and Zhao Xu meet Jiang Gongzi!" Zhao Pu and Zhao Xu didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly bowed.

The young man said lightly: "Sit down!"

"Thank you!"

"Tell me, what's the matter with you coming this time?" Before the two of them could sit down, the young man asked directly.

Zhao Pu hurriedly replied: "The contemptible people came with the little nephew this time to apologize for my Zhao family's failure to fulfill the marriage contract with the Jiang family on time, and please ......."

Before Zhao Pu finished speaking, the young man raised his hand to interrupt his words, and said in a cold voice: "Didn't I say last time, no matter what method you use, you must bring Zhao Yan to me, don't you understand my words? Or do you say that my Jiang Wang's words have no deterrent effect on you at all?"

Zhao Pu felt a powerful killing intent attacking, so oppressive that he could barely raise his head, and his forehead was instantly covered with fine sweat.

"No, it's not like this, it's really an inside story!" Zhao Pu hurriedly explained tremblingly, "Our Zhao family is very willing to marry the Jiang family, but it's a pity that my niece has a very tough personality and would rather die than obey." In order to make her change her mind, we promised her to let her go to university freely. But when we went to Jiangcheng to look for her this year, we found that her kung fu had improved a lot, and we couldn't force her back. In order to let her complete the marriage contract, the head of the family arranged for four more worshippers to go to Jiangcheng together, intending to forcibly bring her back, but found that she worshipped a very powerful master. That man was very powerful, a Dan Dao master, and he defeated the four great worshippers we sent past. Our Zhao family does not have a Dan Dao master in charge, and he is not his opponent, so there is really no way, please forgive Jiang Gongzi!"

"Just one Dan Dao will make your Zhao family helpless, it seems that you are really depraved!" the young man sneered.

Zhao Pu didn't dare to object, so he had to nod his head resignedly.

Zhao Xu suddenly stepped forward and said flatteringly: "Jiang Gongzi, my sister is not only beautiful and fragrant, but also has made great progress in kung fu after apprenticeship, it is said that she has now entered the level of chemical strength, and her master also said that she is expected to Dan Dao within three years." If you bring my sister back, she will definitely be a powerful help to you when the time comes!"

The young man glanced at Zhao Xu and sneered, "Am I missing the help of a Dan Dao?"

Zhao Xu was dumbfounded.

"However, if you dare to disobey the will of our Jiang family, I would like to see who is sacred!" the young man said coldly.

Zhao Xu hurriedly patted his ass and said, "It must be some mountain and wild cultivators, I don't know the majesty of the Jiang family." ”

"A sycophant like you turned out to be the next head of the Zhao family, the Zhao family is really hopeless!" the young man glanced at Zhao Xu and said unceremoniously.

Zhao Xu's face suddenly became ugly, but he was afraid of angering King Jiang, so he had to forcibly squeeze out a smile and echo.

"You guys go down, I'll arrange for someone to go to Jiangcheng with you later, and bring back your resilient sister and the master of the Dan Dao master!" the young man said coldly.

Zhao Xu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "With the master of the Jiang family coming out, of course it will come naturally!"

"Get out of here, don't stand here in my way!" said the young man contemptuously.
