Chapter 46: The Lover's Sword

As the sun sets, the red sunset reflects half of the sky.

On the hanging peak of the mountain behind the priest's courtyard, the god of flowers dressed in red sat on the shore of the Lotus Lake, and the high priest dressed in white stood beside her, looking in the direction of Haotian City.

Hua Shen smiled: "Are you worried about him and Nan Wan'er?"

The high priest said, "I have faith in him, but I feel panicked, and I am inexplicably worried about him. ”

Hua Shen said: "What you are worried about is not now, you are worried about him and Ying Qingyi going to the Chaos Domain." ”

The high priest said, "Senior, is there any way to keep him going?"

Hua Shen said: "I told you that since you have embarked on the path of cultivation, there are some things that you have to face, and avoiding them will not solve any problems. ”

The High Priest asked, "Have you been to the Chaos Domain before?"

Hanagami thought for a moment and replied, "I went there many years ago, but I'll be back when I get there." ”

The high priest asked, "Why did you come back when you arrived?"

With a wave of his hand, the high priest showed a picture of yellow-white clouds and mist, and towering peaks and sky-high fires faintly flashed between the clouds.

The god of flowers pointed to this picture and said: "The danger of the Chaos Domain is far beyond imagination, I went there because I was curious, I was not very interested in the Chaos Pearl, there is no need to take risks, Ji Buyun is different, if he wants to improve his strength as soon as possible, he must grab the Chaos Pearl." ”

The High Priest whispered, "I'd rather him be an ordinary person than take any risks." ”

The flower god smiled and said, "Sooner or later, you will adapt to the cultivation world, and now is just the beginning. ”

When the two were talking on the hanging peak, the banquet of the Prairie Pavilion had already begun, the Prairie Grand Wizard, Tuoba Shuang, and Ji Heng walked out of the inner room, and Tuqiling, who had just sat next to Ji Buyun, had to leave.

Nan Wan'er's anger disappeared as Tu Qiling left.

The Grand Wizard of the Prairie, Tuoba Shuang, and Tui Qiling sat down behind the three long tables in the center. The long cases on both sides are spread out, and each person arranges their seats according to their identity.

According to the habit of respecting the left of the nine tribes of the grassland, Nan Wan'er, the elf princess who was supposed to be honorable, sat on the left side, the jade priest representing the high priest sat on the right side, Ji Buyun, the prince of the Central Plains Empire, was in the second seat on the left, and Lord Ao Zhiwu was in the second seat on the right.

Now the master intends to let Ji Heng sit in the second seat on the left instead of Ji Buyun, but Nan Wan'er said that she didn't say anything to sit in the chief position, she respectfully stood behind Ji Heng with Ji Buyun, and asked him to sit in the chief, Ji Heng symbolically humbled and sat there with peace of mind.

Nan Wan'er tried her best to marry his apprentice, but he didn't bother to be polite to her.

Nan Wan'er pressed Ji Buyun into the second seat and sat down under him.

The jade priest and Lord Ao Zhiwu humbly conceded for a moment, and sat down on the right side of the chief, below Lord Ao Zhiwu, who was the archdeacon of the five people, and below them were the elders and tribal elders.

The three of them arched their hands, and the three of them nodded to him.

After the grassland barbecue was served, the great wizard first raised a toast.

On this kind of occasion, what kind of wine and food to drink is secondary, and it is mainly a form and etiquette.

Ji Buyun secretly glanced at Nan Wan'er a few times, and after the banquet began, the noble and polite elf princess sat upright, without squinting, and she symbolically touched the dishes in front of her, and then threw them into the spoon and did not eat.

For a foodie, how painful it should be to not be able to let go of chopsticks in the face of food, Ji Buyun got up under the excuse and whispered a few words to Ji Cheng's side, Ji Cheng nodded, turned around and asked the waiter behind him to summon his entourage in.

After the three hosts toasted separately, the singers of the inn came up to cheer up.

When the singer dressed in a bright close-fitting robe and wearing silver ornaments on his head was dancing and singing a long, soothing and open pastoral song, Ji Buyun noticed that Ji Heng's eyes seemed to be moist, and he, who had always been moody, looked at Tuoba Shuang stupidly, and this song seemed to arouse something softest in his heart.

Tuoba Shuang's attention was also completely focused on Ji Heng, she looked at him intently, her eyes full of infinite memories and an indescribable love.

It is a kind of love that still sticks to its original intention after a long period of precipitation. This kind of love has crossed space and time, and as long as the two hearts are still there, they will never change.

The two of them gazed affectionately in the melodious pastoral song, completely unconcerned about being in the midst of a full house, in their eyes, at this moment, there was nothing around, between heaven and earth, only each other.

Nan Wan'er obviously noticed the expressions of the two, she leaned into Ji Buyun's ear, and sighed softly: "Little brother, people really want to know all the stories of the two of them." ”

When the singer's song ended, the two woke up from endless memories, Tuoba Shuang got up and came to Ji Heng's seat, his face was like frost, he raised his glass to signal to him, the two did not say a word, and after drinking the wine in the cup tacitly, Tuoba Shuang waved back, and a guard handed over two long swords.

Tuoba Shuang handed a sword to Ji Heng, turned back slightly, and the two of them pulled out their long swords at the same time.

In the cold sword light, there was a strong killing intent.

Tuoba Shuang threw the scabbard upward, and a sword stabbed towards Ji Heng's chest. Ji Heng was caught off guard, the sword was already close, and in a hurry, he flashed sideways, and the sword passed by.

Tuoba Shuang's sneak attack failed, and Leng faced backwards, making way for Ji Heng.

Ji Heng's face sank like water, his long sword was in his chest, and he stepped into the attack range of Tuoba Shuang.

In the midst of the lightning, the two exchanged more than a dozen swords in the exclamation of the guests, each sword was directly towards the other's most fatal point, and the other party always prevented this fatal blow at the last moment.

Just when many guests wondered why the two of them suddenly drew their swords and faced each other, Ji Buyun, who had been trained hard by Ji Heng for ten years, had already seen that the competition between the two seemed to be extremely dangerous, in fact, every move was practiced in advance, and the sword that stabbed at the other party was exhausted when it was close to each other, and the other party would not be injured even if he did not block.

Tuoba Shuang's sword moves have now become wide open and closed, each sword is like a raging storm, heartily launching wave after wave of attacks towards Ji Heng, and Ji Heng's sword is extremely agile, dodging easily in Tuoba Shuang's attack, and occasionally attacking once or twice.

The sword light is shining, the sword aura is dripping, the banquet hall is filled with the sword intent emanating from the two people's swords, the swordsmanship of these two people is definitely the pinnacle among ordinary people, and it is definitely a blessing for experts to see these two people practicing swordsmanship.

Among the guests present, there were many people from the army, and although the highlanders advocated the collective bravery of the standing army, they could still see whether the swordsmanship of the two was good or bad.

Now, most people can see that these two people are just practicing swordsmanship, not fighting for their lives, but in such a sword drill that is directly aimed at the point, ordinary people simply don't have the courage to do so.

The Great Wizard of the Prairie, Tu Cai Ling, Ao Zhiwu and others have already stood up, these two people have been the best in the generation, and now they are performing the swordsmanship that they have practiced countless times, and there must be a lot of unknown secrets hidden here.

In fact, this set of swordsmanship is a sparring move that the two of them studied together, Tuoba Shuang is a child of the grassland, she and Ji Heng often sang long-tune pastoral songs for him privately when they were young, just now they were in love, and they wanted to dance with Ji Heng on a whim, and Ji Heng was also accompanying her to have fun.

The two of them dancing the sword is dancing the sword, and there is no deep meaning.

In the amazement of everyone, the sword moves of the two changed again, and now it was Ji Heng's turn to attack, his sword was extremely powerful, each sword attacked the most difficult place for Tuoba Shuang to defend, and every sword was taken by surprise, and whenever Tuoba Shuang really couldn't hold it, he would hit him backhand, forcing Ji Heng to defend back with a lose-lose style.

Ji Heng's sword is fierce and weird, like his way of using troops, and every time he makes a move, he launches a deadly attack on the opponent's most difficult place to defend.

The swordsmanship of these two people now shows the meaning outside the sword.

Nan Wan'er stood closest to Ji Buyun, still maintaining an elegant princess demeanor, she didn't hold his arm as usual, she whispered to Ji Buyun: "No wonder Master God of War is called the God of War, not to mention the eldest princess sister with such a method of using soldiers, even the gods are difficult to parry." ”

Ji Buyun was not surprised at all that Nan Wan'er could see the meaning of the ant's sword, this elf princess was truly wise and foolish, and it was not surprising that she understood and mastered anything.

Ji Heng and Tuoba Shuang's swordsmanship changed again, the two stood three steps apart, staring at each other, and then suddenly they quickly took out their swords, hitting each other's chests, and the two swords collided together in the middle of the road every time.

The two of them had cold faces, swords and collisions again and again, their minds were on each other, and everything around them had nothing to do with them.

This kind of fighting style shocked everyone, the two of them need to perfectly grasp the angle, strength, and timing of the sword at this distance, so that the two swords can collide together perfectly, and one of the two has a slight difference in the sword, and one of them will be pierced through the chest by the sword immediately.

Ji Buyun had already understood that with the angle of the two of them, even if both of them made the wrong sword, the sword would pass by and would not hurt each other.

Nan Wan'er whispered to him at this time: "They have a tacit understanding, people are so envious, little brother, tomorrow you will also accompany others to practice this swordsmanship." ”

The swords in the hands of Ji Heng and Tuoba Shuang finally hit each other's sword tips, and after a crisp sound, the extremely tough long sword shattered inch by inch, and the remnants of the sword were scattered all over the ground.

The two of them returned to their usual faces, smiled warmly at each other, and returned to their respective seats.

Led by the Grand Wizard of the Prairie, everyone applauded the two together.

The Great Wizard of the Prairie raised his glass to Ji Heng and said, "Brother Ji Heng, your swordsmanship is still as strong as ever, this glass of wine fool brother respects you"

Ji Heng also stood up, the two clinked glasses in the air, and then drank it all.

The little princess stood up, and a maid followed her with a flask.

She first came to Ji Heng's banquet, respectfully poured a glass of wine for Ji Heng, and then held the glass in both hands and said to Ji Heng: "His Royal Highness the God of War, the younger generation respects you." ”

After saying that, she drank it all first, Ji Heng took a sip casually, put the cup down, and she respectfully filled the wine in Ji Heng's cup as if she didn't see it.

Then she came to Ji Buyun's seat, Ji Buyun hurriedly stood up, Ji Heng is the Duke of the Central Plains Empire, the name of the God of War is resounding in the domain, and he has a relationship with her master, the Great Wizard of the Prairie, he can sit and accept the toast of the little princess, Ji Buyun can't be like this.

Tu Qiling first glanced at Nan Wan'er, and saw that she was sitting in her position, and she didn't mean to come over to provoke Zi, knowing that she wanted to maintain her princess demeanor on this occasion, she poured a glass of wine for Ji Buyun with confidence, and said: "Ji Gongzi, my little sister wants to toast you three glasses of wine, this first glass of wine to you and I have a fateful acquaintance, Ji Gongzi is extraordinary, the best among people, it is the honor of the little sister to have the fate to meet you." ”

After the two toasted, Tu Qiling poured a second glass of wine for Ji Buyun, and said: "This second cup of wine, I salute Ji Gongzi yesterday's righteous sword, and Ji Gongzi's demeanor of defeating the fierce beast with two swords yesterday made the little sister convinced and yearning for it infinitely." ”

At the time of the third glass of wine, Tuqi Ling said: "This third glass of wine, I hope that Ji Gongzi can see the face of Tuoba Aunt and hand it over, and take Xiaomei as a good friend in the future. ”

Although Nan Wan'er pretended to be indifferent, in fact, she had been listening to the conversation between the two, and the third sentence of the three sentences that Tu Qiling said in the toast was the key, she wanted to be friends with Ji Buyun.

Nan Wan'er was disdainful of Tu Qiling's move, and pretended to get close to Ji Buyun in the name of a friend like this, wanting to catch up with him who couldn't get the year of the monkey, and by then, she would have already become Ji Buyun's little wife.

On Ji Heng's side, after the Great Wizard finished toasting, Lord Ao Zhiwu took the initiative to come over and stand in front of him, and toasted him three glasses of wine in a row, and then, the princes and dignitaries of the other tribes of the Nine Tribes of the Grassland, the elders of the Senate of the Highlanders, and the tribal elders stepped forward one after another, took the initiative to introduce themselves, and toasted Ji Heng.

Everyone who came to toast Ji Heng treated them equally, smiled and said a few words, and then when the other party toasted, he touched the wine glass on his lips and put it down, anyway, the people who came were just to get the reputation of drinking with him, and no one would pick on him.

After the highlanders who came to salute Ji Heng, they came over to salute Ji Buyun for a cup, and a few people first saluted Ji Buyun and then went over to salute Ji Heng.

Ji Buyun kept these people in mind, and they would definitely find a way to get close to him again in the near future, so that they could seek a position in the high priest's court in the future.

At this time, several children of the grassland nobles came to Ji Buyun with a shirtless man, who was half a head taller than him, with braids scattered on his head and iron muscles all over his body.

Dahan stared at Ji Buyun fiercely and introduced himself: "I am Helian Bo, the third prince of the Helian Department, from the Prairie Wizard Academy, I heard that Ji Gongzi has great powers, and I have come to ask for advice." ”

It turned out that this Helian Bo was also a disciple of the Prairie Wizard Academy, and he had always been interested in Tuqi Ling, but unfortunately Tuqi Ling was not even willing to take care of him.

He just saw the always proud Tuqi Ling deign to take the initiative to toast Ji Buyun, and compared the different treatment he received from Ji Buyun, and he was naturally angry in his heart.

He went directly to the Prairie Pavilion yesterday, and did not see Ji Buyun deal with the seven-headed snake and Xiangliu in person, although someone also told him about it in detail, but the Prairie Wizard Academy had studied the method of dealing with the fierce beast when the aura was taboo, and he did not care about the murderous seven-headed snake in his heart.

He had studied in the Prairie Wizard Academy for many years, and he began to practice spells as soon as the aura taboo was opened, and then looked at Ji Buyun, who was dressed in Praetorian Guard clothes, and secretly thought that this kid was just good-looking, and he was favored by the highland priests?

According to the customs of the grassland, it is very shameful for a man to provoke if he should not fight, and Tu Qiling saw Helian Bo calling for battle to Ji Buyun, and immediately got down from the seat to stop him.

Ji Buyun didn't know why this big man provoked him for no reason, and he didn't want to hurt the peace between the two sides on this occasion, so he instinctively chose to turn a blind eye to Helianbo's call.

Seeing that Ji Buyun did not respond to his challenge, Helian Bo thought that Ji Buyun was afraid of him, and pointed at Ji Buyun and shouted: "It turns out that Ji Gongzi has this ability, and he doesn't even dare to fight, are you still a man?"

Before Ji Buyun was angry, all the highlanders stood up, and Archdeacon Shi rushed over directly with a few people, he pointed at Helian Bo, and shouted angrily: "What did you say? Say it again." ”

Everyone knows that Ji Buyun, who dared to fight alone in the Hidden Sword Palace to save the Priest's Court, bravely kill the assassins of the Senate and the seven-headed snake, could not be afraid of him, but he was just afraid of the face of the Nine Divisions of the Prairie and was unwilling to deal with him, and if he insulted Ji Buyun like this, it was equivalent to insulting all the highlanders.

The Great Wizard waved his hand to the angry highland guests with a smile on his face, and said, "Everyone, please sit down, the inferior disciple doesn't know the height of the sky, let Ji Gongzi teach him a lesson." ”

The Great Wizard saw Ji Buyun's ability in the Senate yesterday, and knew that his apprentice would never be able to hurt Ji Buyun, so he just asked Ji Buyun to teach him a lesson to calm the anger of the highlanders, what he didn't know was that the only thing Ji Buyun relied on at present was the Zijin Sword, which would hurt people when he shot, and it was not suitable for dealing with this inexplicable challenge.

Just when Ji Buyun was embarrassed, Ji Heng glanced at Nan Wan'er, who was purple-faced, with a small face behind him.

Nan Wan'er immediately understood, she knocked on the case in front of her first, and said to Ji Buyun: "Little brother, you better don't fight, it's not good to hurt people on this occasion today." ”

Ji Buyun smiled at her in reply, he understood that Nan Wan'er was using words to wrap Helian Bo in.

Helian Bo saw that Ji Buyun still didn't care about himself, and the wild temper of the grassland boy came up, he dodged the push of Tu Qiling, and pointed at Ji Buyun and shouted: "If you don't dare to fight, you say that you don't dare to fight, are you still a man if you hide behind a woman?"

This sentence aroused Ji Buyun's anger, he stood up, looked directly into Helian Bo's eyes, and said coldly: "You people together are not my opponents, I am only afraid that I will hurt you by mistake and damage the face of the Prairie Wizard Academy." ”

As soon as these words fell, the highlanders present applauded and cheered in unison, but Tuoba Shuang looked at Ji Heng, Ji Buyun's words were exactly the same as what he said in the Prairie Wizard Academy, Ji Heng smiled at her and shook his head.

The Great Wizard of the Prairie said at the table: "It's okay, Master Ji, you can do whatever you want, teach them a lesson, and don't worry about the face of the Wizard Academy." ”

He turned his head to Ji Heng and said, "Brother Ji Heng, you are really a famous teacher and a high apprentice, your disciple has the style you had back then."

Only then did everyone present know that Ji Buyun was Ji Heng's disciple.

Ji Heng smiled at him and arched his hand.

After listening to the Great Wizard's explanation, Tuqi Ling had no choice but to turn around and stand aside.

Ji Buyun walked up to Helian Bo, looked directly at him and said, "How do you want to ask for advice?"

He had absolute confidence in his sword, Ji Heng trained him in mortal swordsmanship for ten years, the queen and Zu Long gave him the purple gold sword that he could control with his mind, and Ying Qingyi gave him the three swords of law and will.

It's too easy to use these against Helenbo.
