Chapter 015: Undercurrents are surging
On the way, Mu Tianxue kept holding Mu Tianji's arm, and kept looking up, wanting to stop talking.
Mu Tianji smiled and said, "Xue'er, do you really want to know about those masked people?"
Mu Tianxue nodded again and again: "I really want to know, I want to know how you became so powerful, brother, and you also learned swordsmanship, not our Mu family's marksmanship." ”
"Brother, you really got the opportunity to have a powerful grandfather teach you martial arts?"
"Silly girl!" Mu Tianji patted his sister's head lightly and said with a smile: "Brother got the opportunity, and it can be said that he got the old man's martial arts, but I haven't seen him." ”
"Huh?" Mu Tianxue's mouth opened wide, and she blinked her eyes and asked, "I haven't seen it, how did you learn it, could it be that the old man gave it to his brother in a dream and taught it in a dream?"
Mu Tianji nodded his forehead and replied, "It's almost like this, I'll tell you slowly in the future." As for those masked men tonight, they are my brother's strongest subordinates, and you will know about it later. ”
"Oh!" Mu Tianxue replied, her small mouth pursed, and she was a little dissatisfied with this answer.
But she knows that everyone has their own secrets, and it is very bad not to ask deeply. Moreover, everything will be understood in the future, and there is no hurry.
The two siblings returned to their lodgings, washed up, and went to sleep.
But Mu Tianji didn't really sleep, but pushed the window out and came to a small forest.
Sou!
Just as Mu Tianji had just set foot in the small clearing, a figure flew over, knelt down on one knee in front of him, and whispered, "Subordinate Qiu Ying, meet the master!"
Mu Tianji waved his hand and said, "Get up, you should know what I want to hear." ”
"Yes!" Qiu Ying stood up, unveiled the black cloth on his face, and his face was full of respect.
He looked to be in his forties, more than eight feet tall, very burly, and he knew that his cultivation was not weak at a glance.
Qiu Ying didn't have any extra nonsense, and said directly: "According to the master's orders, my subordinates led the team to find the heaven and earth elixir and obtained some. ”
Later, he received the master's order to inquire about the whereabouts of the old master and the master's mother, but he searched the entire Dragon Empire and never found the slightest information. ”
"The entire Dragon Teng Empire?" Mu Tianji asked lightly.
Qiu Ying's body was shocked, and he hurriedly corrected: "Master is angry, it is a place where the entire Dragon Teng Empire can go, that is, the jurisdiction of cities below the third level. ”
"The subordinates felt that the old master and the master mother must have gone to a big city above the third level to find a cure for the master. ”
As he spoke, Qiu Ying quietly looked at Mu Tianji, and there were a lot of greetings in his eyes.
Mu Tianji smiled: "Isn't it strange, why did I restore my dantian and re-cultivate my martial arts, and my cultivation has made a big breakthrough compared to before?"
Qiu Ying didn't dare to hide his thoughts, and nodded in acknowledgement.
Mu Tianji said again: "Fortunately, I sent you out five years ago, and I didn't let you know that I became a waste. Otherwise, I don't think you'll be loyal to me anymore. ”
"The subordinates don't dare!" Qiu Ying was so frightened that he hurriedly knelt on the ground, and his body couldn't help but tremble slightly.
After all, on the way back, he heard about Mu Tianji's affairs over the years, and he had this idea in his heart, but he never believed it, and he wanted to come back and see it in person.
I never thought that Mu Tianji was blessed by misfortune, and his cultivation was more profound, and he had the momentum of a king in every gesture, how could there be a shadow of waste?
The strength shown in the previous battle is enough to shatter all rumors.
What's more, even his own thoughts have been guessed, which is really terrifying, and he can only deny that he had that kind of thought, and he has to deny it even if he is killed.
Mu Tianji stretched out his hand and patted Qiu Ying's shoulder, and said lightly: "I don't think you should be so bold, just talk, and you shouldn't be nervous." ”
As he spoke, he turned around and came back, and the words came into Qiu Ying's ears: "You put aside the matter of my parents for the time being, take care of my sister for me in secret, and don't let her suffer the slightest grievance and threat." ”
"Attribute command!" Qiu Ying hurriedly received the order, still kneeling on the ground and not daring to move.
After making sure that Mu Tianji was far away, he stood up and found that he was already sweating profusely, and his heart was terrified. That momentum of the king, like a mountain, is difficult to resist.
After Mu Tianji returned to his residence, he immediately packed up some simple salutes and went out at night, so as not to have a difficult goodbye to his sister the next day.
In the center of the city, in the most majestic and glorious city lord's mansion, Gu Lingyun was being healed by the doctor in the mansion, and his eyes were full of anger.
Originally, I thought that the Mu family could be wiped out today, and then annexed it, enhancing the strength of the City Lord's Mansion while deterring the other two families.
Who would have thought that not only did he not succeed, but he was almost served by the other party. Now that I think about it, I'm still a little scared.
On the side, Gu Yiming, the city lord, held a bloody arrow in his hand, and carefully looked at it over and over again, his brows were tightly locked, and his face was full of doubts.
After about a cup of tea, the doctor finished bandaging Gu Lingyun and got up to say goodbye.
Gu Yiming walked over quickly, looked at his son and said, "Yun'er, I really didn't see what the other party's identity was?"
Gu Lingyun nodded and said, "They are all black-clothed masked people, and they are all hiding in the shadows, so they can't see any information. But according to the child's thoughts, it must be the killer invited by Mu Tianji!"
Hearing this, Gu Yiming looked at the sharp arrow in his hand again, shook his head and said, "Killer?" An ordinary killer must know that the opponent of the Mu family is one of our three major families, how dare he answer?"
"If it's a big organization killer, the asking price is very high, and Mu Tianji can't afford it at all. So I think this should be the force behind the person who passed on his martial arts. ”
"However, there is no trace of this arrow, and it is impossible to know what force it is. In this way, we must not act rashly, but we must have a foolproof plan. ”
As he spoke, Gu Yiming put down the sharp arrow and said, "Yun'er, you just said that Mu Tianji has cultivated a powerful sword technique, do you remember how to use it?"
Gu Lingyun nodded and said, "Remember, I'll show it to my father." ”
After finishing speaking, he didn't care about the pain in his arm, took a wooden sword, and played it on the spot.
The more Gu Yiming looked at it, the more puzzled he became, and the more he looked at it, the more shocked he became. After Gu Lingyun finished playing, his palms were already sweating, and he sighed: "This is the most exquisite swordsmanship I have seen so far." ”
"It seems that Mu Tianji has been passed on by the powerful and powerful. If you want to deal with him, the current strength of our City Lord's Mansion is no longer possible, and we don't dare. ”
"Yun'er, you should start your retreat and cultivation from tomorrow, and don't leave the gate until the Imperial Heaven Pavilion General Election Event begins. Mobilize all the resources for the Father, and let you storm the realm. ”
"I will also pay attention to Mu Tianji from time to time to see who passed on his martial arts. As long as I know who the other party is, I have a way to make him abandon the Mu family and become your master!"
"If that person doesn't appear, it will be difficult for the Mu family's resources to break through to a very high realm. Therefore, Yun'er, you must redouble your efforts to surpass Mu Tianji, join the Imperial Heaven Pavilion, and become an official disciple!"
The more Gu Lingyun listened, the more excited he became, completely forgetting the pain in his arm.
As long as he can become an official disciple of the Imperial Heavenly Pavilion, he can make the City Lord's Mansion dominate Shun'an City, and let Mu Tianji kneel in front of him, wagging his tail like a dog and begging for mercy!
Not only Gu Lingyun, but Huang Xiaoshan is also about to enter retreat, and he must use all the resources of the family to quickly improve his cultivation, and trample all opponents under his feet at the Yutian Pavilion General Election Event.
The Dai family naturally won't sit still, they also made a cultivation sprint plan for Dai Ling'er, and the goal is also the Yutian Pavilion general election event.
The major families are also paying close attention to each other, grasping each other's dynamics, and hoping that others will have accidents. At the same time, he is also looking for opportunities to make bad things behind his back, and erase all powerful opponents as much as possible.
In this way, the entire Shun'an City still looks quiet and peaceful as before, but in fact, it is prepared by all parties, and the undercurrent is surging!
