In a hidden col in the dark forest, there is a small courtyard that is like spring all year round.

Because it is surrounded by mountains and surrounded by a large number of dark trees, the courtyard is very hidden.

The yard is very shabbyly furnished, with a few thatched huts, dozens of bamboos, ornamental flowers planted in front of and behind the door, and stone tables and chairs placed in the middle of the courtyard......

The overall image gives people the feeling of a small farmhouse, because few people know it, and it is also like a paradise.

The small courtyard has a name, called Xiaoyaoju.

Its owner is none other than Meng Xiaoyao, the current head of the Xiaoyao Mercenary Group.

Crunch!

The door was gently pushed open, and Meng Xiaoyao came to the stone table with a folding fan in one hand and a teapot in the other.

People are drifting in the rivers and lakes, how can they not be stabbed, a pot of tea every day, and the world is free.

As the leader of the super mercenary group, Meng Xiaoyao is tired of the days of fighting and killing, and every time he is free, he will stay in the courtyard and enjoy the peace of the world.

This is a place that very few people know about except a few people.

Rustling......

Someone approached.

Meng Xiaoyao took a sip of tea, closed his eyes gently, and opened his eyes again after sensing the breath on the arrival's body.

When the visitor reached the door, he stood up and smiled, "Welcome!"

The person who came was a young man in white, who was Liu Zhong, the leader of the black and white mercenary group.

Liu Zhong sat opposite him, looked around, and said with a smile: "There is such a chic and comfortable place in the dark forest, Brother Meng is really free!"

Meng Xiaoyao poured a cup of tea, pushed it over with a folding fan, and said: "Except for the word Xiaoyao in my name, my life is not at all carefree. ”

Liu Zhong took a sip of tea and asked, "Brother Meng is still worried about the matter of Sui Gong?"

"The seven-day deadline was approaching quickly, and I tried my best to get all the materials together. I'm really worried...... Hey......" Meng Xiaoyao said distressedly.

Liu Zhong said straight to the point: "Brother Meng, if I tell you, there is a way that you don't have to pay the New Year's tribute. Do you dare to take the risk?"

Meng Xiaoyao's action of serving tea stopped, and he hesitated: "Brother Liu Xian, do you want to do something to the three major mercenary groups?"

Liu Zhongdao: "I have this kind of thought. ”

Meng Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "Brother Liu Xian, I advise you to give up this dangerous idea. The three major mercenary groups are three mountains, not to mention that the two of us join forces, even if dozens of mercenary groups attack at the same time, they may not be able to trigger it. ”

Liu Zhong stared at his eyes and said, "Dozens of can't do it, what if there are hundreds?"

Meng Xiaoyao's smile disappeared, and he said seriously: "Are you really going to do it?"

"Now that the situation is either me or they die, I don't seem to have any other choice. Liu Zhong said lightly.

Meng Xiaoyao nodded and said, "I understand your kindness, but I don't want to gamble the lives of all my brothers for fame and fortune!"

Liu Zhong persuaded: "If you enter, you will live, and if you retreat, you will die." I am looking for you to reap the fruits of victory with me. ”

Meng Xiaoyao asked, "What do you mean?"

Liu Zhong explained: "Of the three mercenary groups, this time we will only move two, I will replace the Broken Dragon Mercenary Group, and you will replace the Ruthless Mercenary Group." ”

Poof......

Meng Xiaoyao's tea almost squirted out.

Super mercenary groups have existed for hundreds of years, how can it be said that they will be replaced, and the appetite of this young man in front of him is too great, right?

"Don't you believe it?" Liu Zhong held the teacup tightly, and the tea splashed everywhere.

Meng Xiaoyao knew that he had lost his temper, and hurriedly explained: "It's not that I don't believe it, I just didn't think of it." It's a beautiful idea, but it's too risky......."

Liu Zhongdao: "I know your concerns, what you are worried about is the Xuanming mercenary group. ”

Meng Xiaoyao snorted and didn't say anything.

"My guess is that the Xuan Ying mercenary group will keep an attitude of ignoring our actions. ”

"Guess?"

Liu Zhongdao: "Yes, guess. ”

Meng Xiaoyao still felt a little risky, and said with a smile: "Brother Liu Xian, can you make it clearer, how to completely replace the ruthless mercenary group?"

Liu Zhong didn't say the plan directly, lowered his voice and slowed down his tone, and said, "Before that, I need to verify Brother Meng's sincerity. ”

"Brother Liu Xian, if you have something to say, don't beat the corner. How do you think I can prove my sincerity, do I want something?" Meng Xiaoyao was very simple.

When it came to this, Liu Zhong was no longer polite, "I heard that the swordsmanship that your regiment has passed down from generation to generation - heaven and earth are free, it's very good." I'm very interested in this swordsmanship and want to learn it!"

Meng Xiaoyao's face became a little ugly, and he said after a while: "Brother Liu Xian, you are really embarrassed." Heaven and Earth are the stunt of my free mercenary group, and only the previous commanders are qualified to cultivate. I really don't want to make an exception......"

Liu Zhong sneered: "The swordsmanship passed down by Xiaoyaochen's predecessors may not be unique to your Xiaoyao mercenary group, right?"

Hearing the name Xiaoyaochen, Meng Xiaoyao almost jumped in shock.

His eyes were like two big light bulbs, staring at Liu Zhong deadly, "Brother Liu Xian, who are you, how do you know the name Xiaoyaochen?"

Liu Zhong owns one-tenth of the database of the Ten Thousand Swords Continent, so he naturally knows the character of Xiaoyaochen and his legendary story.

He smiled slightly and said, "Heaven and Earth are very important to me, and I also hope that Master Meng will be successful." ”

Meng Xiaoyao thought for a while and agreed: "It's okay to make an exception once." However, you must promise me one condition, and this is also the condition that you must agree to to learn this swordsmanship. ”

"What?"

"The power of heaven and earth is particularly huge, don't use it until the moment of life and death!"

Yoo Jong agreed.

Meng Xiaoyao walked into the house, took out a broken rag from it, and said, "What is recorded above is that heaven and earth are free, and whether you can succeed in cultivation depends on your understanding." ”

Liu Zhong took it and opened it, a little disappointed, it was actually a cloud map, and in addition, it was a giant who stood up to the sky.

What's even more worrying is that this swordsmanship atlas is still incomplete.

After contemplating for an hour or so, I finally understood the principle of this swordsmanship, everything is as its name suggests, cultivating to the highest realm, it is indeed heaven and earth that can be free, and no one can keep it!

Unfortunately, the inheritance of the Mercenary Group is incomplete, and it exerts two-thirds of its power at most.

For Yoo Jong, this is enough.

After the enlightenment, he returned the sword book to Meng Xiaoyao. agreed with the latter and left in style.

When he walked away, Meng Xiaoyao said suspiciously: "Where did he learn the name Xiaoyaochen? Could it be that he is a descendant of Xiaoyaozong?"

patted his head and denied: "The Xiaoyao Sect was destroyed a long time ago, and it is impossible for there to be descendants. ”

At the peak of the Xiaoyao Sect, Wanzong bowed his head and became a subordinate.

The Sword Sect, the strongest sect in the Tianbei Sword Domain, is not even a fart in front of the Xiaoyao Sect.

You can imagine how powerful the Xiaoyao Sect was back then.

However, no matter how powerful it is, it has become history.

Meng Xiaoyao sighed a few times and returned to the house.

The deal with Yoo Jong has been reached, so let's just wait for the signal.
