"Hmmm! Have a seat. After a few days of tiring travel, you have also worked hard, come, drink some water first. Zhong Zhiye handed him the poured water, and said in a gentle and caring tone.

Zhong Zhiye looked at him kindly, although Zhong Mu's surface was as calm as a mirror lake without ripples, and he hid his thoughts without leaving a trace, but Zhong Zhiye, who had read countless people, could see at a glance that his eyes were full of haggardness, besides, this was his son, who else knew better than him.

Zhong Mu smiled and took it with both hands, "Thank you, Dad." ”

"Mu'er, this is your first time participating in Yijian Xing, are you nervous?" Although Zhong Zhiye is the owner of a village, he also cares about his son.

"Not nervous." It's true, Zhong Mu has no need to lie.

"That's good." Zhong Zhiye sighed lightly, paused, his slightly old face showed a look of worry, and said, "But you still can't be careless, Wu Pan's daughter Wu Lingshuang's martial arts are not weak, she has won Wu Pan's true inheritance, her martial arts are only ranked below Wu Pan, and her sword is still the fifth ranked Rouling in the sword spectrum, if you encounter it at that time, you have to be careful." ”

"Thank you dad for your concern, Mu'er will keep it in mind."

"Also, it must be hard to take care of Nan'er along the way, right? Nan'er's naughty and mischievous personality is really a headache, it seems that he will have to be smelted in the future, and he can't be indulged too much. As soon as Zhong Zhiye thought of his youngest son Zhong Nan, he had a headache and pressed his temples.

Zhong Nan has been spoiled by his mother since he was a child, which led to his character defects, and he knows that he is idle and drinking all day long, and now Zhong Nan can't even listen to his words as a father, and in the end he has to rely on Mu'er to get out of the horse, and his father is also incompetent.

"Yes, I'll train Anan well." Zhong Nan still listened to him, but he wasn't too worried.

"Recently, there have been a lot of affairs in the village, plus to participate in the Yi Sword Line, long-distance travel, my body is also a little unable to support, in the Yi Sword Line, for my father I hope you can go all out, seize this opportunity to become famous in one fell swoop. I have carefully cultivated you for so many years, and now your martial arts are above mine, don't let your father down. Zhong Zhiye pressed all the expectations of Xueqi Mountain Villa on him, patted him on the shoulder, as if inheriting something, and at the same time encouraged Zhong Mu.

Zhong Mu knew that his father had put too much effort into making Xueqi Villa carry forward, so he would definitely not let his father down.

In the past, Xueqi Mountain Villa was just a small sect, and it could only be slaughtered by others, and it did not dare to resist. It took Zhong Zhiye more than 20 years to make Xueqi Villa grow to the second largest sect in the martial arts, and the disciples who came to learn from him were all over the Central Plains, with a total of more than 3,000 people. To have this achievement, Zhong Zhiye can be said to have worked hard, the hardships and hardships of these years, only he knows that he was born with majestic ambition and ambition, and he will definitely not let Xueqi Villa stop moving, and if he wants to do it, he will be the first in martial arts.

"Xueqi Villa will be handed over to you sooner or later, my father is already old, and my body is not as good as a year, now Xueqi Villa can have a foothold in the troubled times, I don't know how much effort it takes, if you can win the top spot in Yijian Xing and become a sword saint, I will have no worries, then I will abdicate, Mu'er, are you willing to take over the position of the owner?" Zhong Zhiye looked at him with deep eyes, and asked him sincerely, but Zhong Mu hesitated and didn't speak, his thin lips pursed slightly, and it seemed that it was difficult to choose.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhong Zhiye's thick eyebrows were furrowed, his face was slightly angry, and his thick voice shocked him, and asked, "Don't you want to be the owner of Xueqi Villa?" ”

"Dad, don't be angry yet, it's just that the current situation is not suitable to talk about this matter for the time being." Seeing that Zhong Zhiye's eyebrows were displeased, he hurriedly calmed his emotions and said his thoughts, "Dad will always be a tall and mighty hero in Mu'er's heart, and besides, you are now energetic and high-spirited, even if you are in charge for another ten years, there will be no problem." Besides, in such a hurry, let Mu'er take the position of the owner, the people under him will definitely not be convinced, Dad, you don't need to worry about this matter, it's not too late to talk about it in a few years. ”

In fact, Zhong Mu wanted Anan to sit in this position.

"Mu'er, I know what you're worried about, are you afraid that Nan'er won't be convinced?" Zhong Zhiye guessed at a glance what worried him, but what Mu'er said was not unreasonable, and after a long time, he sighed before saying: "Actually, I didn't want Nan'er to be the owner of the village, but with Nan'er's playful and naughty character, she is really not suitable for holding power." On the other hand, Mu'er, you have a calm personality, consider things more comprehensively, and are very cautious and cautious in case of trouble, you have never made a mistake, for the better future of Xueqi Villa, I can't put my hard work in Nan'er's hands! ”

Zhong Nan's martial arts are not weak, but he usually drinks well, and Zhong Zhiye is worried that he will make a mistake if he drinks.

"Dad, now Anan is still young, I believe that in a few years, when he grows up, he will definitely be able to take the position of the owner, we might as well wait a few more years."

Zhong Zhiye slapped the table angrily and said sharply, "Mu'er." ”

"Dad, Anan is also your son, you can't go your own way, and you can't deny Anan's efforts because of Mu'er." Zhong Mu still insisted on his own ideas.

"Well, we'll talk about that later." Seeing Zhong Mu's attitude so firm, Zhong Zhiye sighed and didn't continue.

"Thank you dad for your understanding." Zhong Mu bowed and thanked him, and poured a glass of water for Zhong Zhiye to extinguish the fire, "Dad, you drink water." ”

In the face of his son's concern, Zhong Zhiye's originally angry mood eased a lot, and he took the cup and drank it in one gulp, "This time Yi Jian Xing, Mu'er, you must win the first place no matter what, but you can't let others think that I am easy to provoke Xueqi Villa." ”

"Okay, I'll do my best." To be honest, although Zhong Mu is very confident in his martial arts, there is a sky outside the sky, and there are people outside the world, if he is in charge of the Sword Saint Wu, he may not be able to win the first place.

Suddenly, there was a noisy sound of swords downstairs, and the movement outside was heard in the house, Zhong Mu noticed that something was wrong, and quickly got up and said, "Dad, I'll go out and see what's going on." ”

"Hmm!" Zhong Zhiye nodded.

Zhong Mu closed the door by the way after going out, and hurriedly walked from the corridor to the fence, he stood next to the fence on the second floor, looking down at the entire lobby with handsome eyes, only to see three men surrounded by eight big men with scimitars, but the three men did not panic at all, Zhong Mu used internal force to probe their skills, but to no avail, I was afraid that their skills were still above him.

One of them, a handsome man dressed in purple, with an extremely bewitching posture holding his orchid fingers, gently stroked the hilt of the noble sword in his hand with his middle finger, and a wicked smile rose at the corner of his mouth, and his voice was pleasant, "Yo ho, it's not a shame for a few big men to bully two weak old men and children." ”
