"Alas, the loss this time is too great, I didn't expect the Dragon Palace to decay to such a point under my governance." ”

Ao Fan sat on the chair, looking very lonely.

He had already instructed his disciples to fetch the things that he wanted to compensate for the Tang Dynasty. Ao Fan's right hand subconsciously rubbed the storage ring on his left hand, which contained the two crystal jade boxes that the ancestor Ao Ao had just handed over to him, and the crystal jade boxes contained two precious 'Five Dragon Pills'.

Originally, Ao Fan was going to send someone to send the compensation to the swordsman and Xia Weiwei and the compensation to the Tang Dynasty Mansion to Guandao Mountain and hand it over to Ren Xingchen. But now there are two more precious 'Five Dragon Pills', so Ao Fan has to go there in person. With such a precious 'Five Dragon Pill', he didn't feel at ease in handing it over to anyone. If his subordinates ran away with the 'Five Dragon Pills', Ao Fan would have to go crazy.

Ao Fan never understood why Huang Tian didn't contact the sect after catching the swordsman and disappeared, but he wouldn't make this kind of mistake again.

Two days later, Ao Fan and two Dragon Palace disciples stood at the foot of Guandao Mountain.

Looking up, Ao Fan couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. Since taking over as the head of the Dragon Palace, he has rarely left the sect. Before that, he had also come to Guandao Mountain when he was training in the rivers and lakes. Ao Fan also became very good friends with Tan Ran, and when he heard what happened to Tan Ran, Ao Fan felt sorry for Tan Ran in his heart. But then Tan Ran disappeared, and it wasn't until more than a month ago that the swordsman came out of nowhere, and Ao Fan heard Tan Ran's name again from the destruction of the village in Taoyuan Village. He didn't expect that Tan Ran had always been so close to him, but the two never had the chance to meet again.

"Hahaha, how dare you bother Brother Ao Fan to go on a trip in person for this little thing?"

A few hearty laughs interrupted Ao Fan's scattered thoughts and pulled him back to reality.

It turned out that Ren Xingchen got the news and personally brought people to the foot of the mountain to greet Ao Fan and the others.

"Hmph, I asked knowingly. ”

Ao Fan snorted dissatisfiedly.

"Hehe, why should Brother Ao Fan be like this? Since he is here, he will stay on the mountain for two days, and let me do my best to be a landlord." ”

Regarding Ao Fan's attitude, Ren Xingchen didn't care.

For Ao Fan's personal arrival, the entire Tang Dynasty Government paid great attention to it, which also made Ao Fan's depressed mood a little better, and the two walked side by side on the official road mountain.

Walking to the huge central square, Ao Fan stopped in front of the statue of Cheng Biting Jin, and saluted respectfully, showing full respect for this old-timer who single-handedly created the Tang Dynasty Mansion. After staring for a long time, Ao Fan followed Ren Xingchen to Ziwei Peak.

In the Ziwei Peak Hall, in addition to Ren Xingchen, the other nine elders of the Tang Dynasty Mansion were also present to accompany them.

After sitting down, Ao Fan threw a Sumeru bag in his hand to Ren Xingchen. Ren Xingchen took it in his hand, and his spiritual power glanced around it, and he immediately smiled.

"Brother Ao Fan, what about the other things on the list?"

Ren Xingchen asked, he didn't find the herbs that Xia Weiwei asked for in the Sumeru bag, and he knew that Ao Fan must have prepared them separately.

"Those things don't seem to be for Brother Stardust, right? The stakes are very high, and the old man will not be relieved to hand them over to the swordsman himself. ”

Ao Fan said.

He didn't want to put the 'Five Dragon Pill' in Ren Xingchen's hands, and he also wanted to see the swordsman who made the entire Dragon Palace suffer such a big loss. That night, the swordsman broke into the Dragon Palace in the middle of the night and killed the Dragon Palace Elder Zhang Li, Ao Fan was so frightened that he didn't dare to look at the swordsman carefully. Now that the relationship between the two sides is not so tense, he naturally wants to see the swordsman again.

"Hehe, when did Brother Ao Fan become so cautious?"

Ren Xingchen smiled, and immediately sent someone to Shenbing Peak to summon the swordsman to come to Ziwei Peak.

"Qi Yu is in charge, Uncle Swordsman is not on the Divine Soldier Peak at this time, I heard the disciple of the Divine Soldier Peak say that the Uncle of the Swordsman Guest left the sect at noon and went to Chang'an City, probably went to Chang'an Restaurant for dinner, and has not come back yet. ”

Not long after, the disciple who was sent by Ren Xingchen to find the swordsman came back to report.

"Hehe, that's a coincidence. But Brother Ao Fan shouldn't be in a hurry, when the swordsman comes back later, it's not too late to talk about it. ”

Ren Xingchen said.

"Chang'an Restaurant? It just so happens that those things also have a portion of Miss Xia, and it's getting dark, why don't we go directly to Chang'an Restaurant, the old man hasn't eaten a meal in Chang'an Restaurant for many years, how about Brother Xingchen invite the old man to have a good meal today?"

Ao Fan waved his hand and said.

When he was training the rivers and lakes, Ao Fan also went to Chang'an Restaurant to eat a few times, but he had never seen Xia Weiwei's true face. Now that he knows Xia Weiwei's true identity, he wants to see this real colorful phoenix that is rare in the legendary world.

And when Ao Fan took over as the head of the Dragon Palace, the Dragon Palace paid a great price to buy a jar of 'drunken life and dream death' from Xia Weiwei, and that taste still makes Ao Fan have endless aftertastes. This time, he sent Xia Weiwei two precious 'Five Dragon Pills', and maybe she could taste 'Drunken Life and Dream Death' again.

"That's fine, then Senior Brother Li and I will accompany Brother Ao Fan on a trip. ”

Ren Xingchen nodded and agreed.

He can still afford a meal, because of the relationship between the swordsman and the knight, Ren Xingchen also called Li Wufeng to accompany him.

Although the other eight elders were jealous of Li Wufeng's special treatment, they had no choice, who let Li Wufeng accept a good apprentice?

"Brother Stardust, it's just the three of us now. None of you are outsiders, can you give me a thorough understanding of what this swordsman is all about?"

On the way, Ao Fan asked seriously.

There were too many people in the main hall of Ziwei Peak just now, and he never found a chance to ask this question. Now there are only three of them left, and Li Wufeng is the master of the swordsman, so he took the opportunity to ask.

"Swordsman, Brother Ao Fan should have investigated very clearly. The swordsman was personally selected by Senior Brother Tan Ran and sent to the Tang Dynasty Mansion. This little thing shouldn't be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Dragon Palace, right?"

Ren Xingchen said with a smile.

"Brother Stardust, it's boring for you to be perfunctory like this, you know that's not what I'm asking. ”

Ao Fan said with a straight face.

What Ren Xingchen said was no secret for a long time, what he wanted to ask was the identity of the mysterious powerhouse behind the swordsman, who was the most important factor in the compromise of the Dragon Palace.

"Alas, it's not that I won't say it, it's just that this matter is too involved. I can only say that the swordsman is not something that Ryugu can move. ”

Speaking of business, Ren Xingchen also became serious.
