Approaching summer, the unbridled smile of the afternoon sun scorched every corner of the earth. The fallen leaves, stolen of their moisture by the hot mang, waiting for the same blazing breeze to blow, hoping that the breeze could take it to a shady place.

In the sunny Cangqiu country, there is indeed a strong breeze blowing, but there are no pedestrians on the street, only the long-awaited smile of the fallen leaves.

As the wind blew, the crisp leaves rested under a stone beast, and they were just covered in shadows, but everything was as it was.

Looking at the stone beast again, there is another one on the side, they are facing the sun, silently guarding the noble mansion behind them. On top of the black double wooden door, there is a plaque with gold edges, which reads Huaijun's Mansion.

Huaijun's mansion is very large, there are two halls and six partial rooms in the front yard alone, and the back yard is larger than the front yard, in addition to the largest hall, there are also the main room and more than ten rooms.

At this time, in a hall in the front yard of Huaijun Mansion, an old man in black stood in front of a man who looked similar to King Cangnan, and told the details of today's assassination on the long street.

The man looks to be in his thirties, but his face looks very majestic, with a bright light in his eyes, and he is wearing a purple and gold costume, which is even more luxurious than the king of Cangnan, he is the eldest brother of the king of Cangnan, Qiu Huai, the king of Canghuai!

"Your Majesty, that's all there is to it today. Judging from the reaction of the second prince, it didn't look like he should be prepared behind him, but the old slave didn't dare to confirm that there was only one Kuda by his side. The old man in black said respectfully to Cang Huaijun, and the old man bowed slightly. His name was Qiu Ruo, and he was a loyal servant of the eldest prince, and he was in charge of all the assassinations today.

"You just said that a strange young man stopped you, very young and very strong in cultivation?" Cang Huaijun asked slowly after listening to Qiu Ruo's words. Qiu Ruo is a cultivator of the third layer of the Qi Sea Realm, and the young man in his mouth sounds even stronger than him, which is really interesting, and he really wants to know this person.

Qiu Ruo's eyes rolled, and then he said respectfully: "Yes, Your Majesty." However, the man's clothes didn't look like they belonged to his country, and his spiritual power was golden, so he should be a Buddhist cultivator. At first, the old slave thought that he had nothing to do with the king of Cangnan, but according to the news of the spies, the king of Cangnan took him and a woman with him back to the palace, and the old slave felt that he would be an obstacle to the king. ”

"Haha. Hearing this, Cang Huaijun stared at Qiu Yu and said indifferently: "Second brother, are you in such a hurry to win him over, it seems that you really have no other means." ”

Hearing Cang Huaijun muttering to himself, Qiu did not speak.

"Send someone to keep an eye on them outside the palace, if they come out, follow them and find a way to try him, just let those three people go, they are all cultivators of the ninth layer of the Yuan Vein Realm, there shouldn't be much of a problem." As for the palace, just keep an eye on it. After muttering to himself, Cang Huaijun turned his back to Qiu Yu and ordered calmly. He didn't want to give the people his second brother wanted, if he could get the best, if he couldn't get it, it would be ruined.

Qiu Ruo received the order, answered, and hurriedly left the hall and set about to do it.

...

In the palace of Cangqiu Kingdom, in a side hall, King Cangnan and Jingye looked at each other. He can figure it out, but he can't figure it out.

"Why does Brother Jing refuse, does Brother Jing seem to be the kind of person who can unload the mill and kill donkeys?" After a pause, King Cangnan said with a little sadness. He has obviously led the conversation to pure karma

But why did he still refuse? Could it be that Jingye's love for Xiao'er was just superficial? Or did he not care about her safety at all?

"It's not, it's just that the king's eldest brother didn't do anything to me, even if he came to me, I wouldn't worry, as for my lover, whoever dares to think crookedly will die!" The wine glass fell, the killing intent rose, and he stared at King Cangnan, as if his words were not just aimed at Qiu Canghuaijun.

The quiet smile beside him looked at the side face of the little monk distractedly, with only happiness in his heart, and his right hand gently held his left arm, evoking a sweet smile.

Feeling the coldness in Jingye's voice and the killing intent emanating from his eyes, King Cangnan smiled helplessly and sighed: "Alas, since Brother Jing has said this, then I will no longer force it." But this does not affect the relationship between you and me, you are still the king's brother, this king is still your brother, all other needs in the future, you can come to the brother, don't be too polite. ”

Jingye put away his killing intent, raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "The two of us will not stay here for a long time, and after a day or two, we will leave, so we will not disturb the king too much." Today, I thank the king for my delicacies, and I take my leave. ”

After saying that, Jingye got up with a smile and bowed to King Cangnan.

"It's okay, Cangqiu Kingdom welcomes your arrival at any time, after all, you saved this king once, and also saved that child's life. Let's go, this king will send you out of the palace. Seeing this, King Cangnan also got up and said. This time, however, he did not say anything about etiquette, but put his hand on the shoulder of the pure karma and smiled.

For King Cangnan's words, Jingye didn't say anything, and thanked him again, so he walked out of the palace with a smile and followed King Cangnan.

There was nothing to say all the way, until in front of the palace gate, King Cangnan had a few long words with Jingye, and then looked at the back of them leaving.

Kuda, who had been silent beside him, looked straight at the back of Jingye, and suddenly asked King Cangnan: "Your Majesty, will you just let him go?"

"Great enemy, hehe, don't worry, it won't. This person is extremely calm and intelligent, and it is impossible to subdue him with Cang Huaijun. Besides, even if you don't let him go, what can you do?" King Cangnan sneered, looked into the distance, and said confidently. Ever since he talked to Pure Karma, he has been testing each other. How could such a young and cultivated person be easily subdued, at least he didn't think his eldest brother could do it.

After listening to King Cangnan's words, Kuda clenched the hilt of the sword in his hand and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the minister can kill him!"

"You?" King Cangnan glanced at the bitterness of the killing intent in his eyes, shook his head, and said softly: "From the time he appeared in front of this king to the time he left here, I haven't looked at you, even if you use the forbidden technique to make yourself have the cultivation of the eighth layer of the Qi Sea Realm, I'm afraid you won't necessarily be able to beat him." ”

"The king doesn't trust Weichen?" Kuda bowed to King Cangnan and said in a deep voice. He himself has a two-layer cultivation in the Qi Sea Realm, and at the same time, he also has his own powerful forbidden technique, which can greatly improve his cultivation, but the price is also high.

King Cangnan glanced at Kuda and said in a long voice: "There is no next time for such words! This king doesn't know if you have noticed, there is also a young fierce beast on that woman's body." What do you think that beast is like that, and there is no guard against them?"

Hearing this, Kuda did not raise his head,

He didn't open his mouth either, kept his bow down, and didn't move.

"A person who can even raise a fierce beast, do you think his background will be poor? The most terrifying thing about him is his age, and because of this, the more he shows, the more terrifying it becomes!" King Cangnan finally said a few words, waved his wide sleeves, and turned around and walked towards the deep palace. As the king of a country, not to mention whether he is strong or not, the most important thing is that he must have the ability to recognize and employ people, if he can't do this, then he has lived in vain for so many years.

After King Cangnan left, Kuda still stopped in place, silently recalling the king's words, and at the same time looking at the direction of the disappearance of pure karma, without any emotion.

...

After coming out of the palace, Joye wandered around the long street with a smile. Xiao'er tugged on his arm, very coquettish to eat ordinary fruits, and Jingye had no choice but to take her around to find a stall.

Although Cangqiu Country is not big, it is not too small, at least two Chang'an Cities, so Jingye can't go back to the place in the morning to buy ordinary fruits for Xiao'er, so he can only look around, and at the same time he regrets how he used it to smash people at that time, but unfortunately the most irreparable thing in this world is regret.

After turning a few more long streets, the sky gradually darkened, and there were not many pedestrians on the street, and soon there were only two people, Jingye and Xiao'er.

Suddenly stopped, Jingye looked at the long street with no people, raised his head slightly, and swept the surrounding dome.

"Little monk, what's wrong?" Xiao'er saw that Jingye stopped, looked at him and asked.

"Xiao'er, there are a lot of people around us, and they don't have the right intentions!" Jingye glanced back again, and there was nothing left behind him except for the light breeze.

Xiao'er heard that Jingye said that there were many people coming, her face changed, and she was afraid: "Are you here to kill us again?"

"Don't be afraid, with me, no one can hurt you!" Jingye gently touched Xiao'er's little head and said gently.

The beautiful eyes looked at Jingye, smiled and held her hands, smiled softly, and nodded.

"Bang Bang..."

At this moment, a rush of footsteps suddenly sounded around.

Jingye's eyes lit up with golden light, looking at the large number of black-clothed people on both sides of the long street and on the surrounding rooftops, and protected his smile behind him. The drum crawled on Xiao'er's shoulder, spitting out the letter and hissing, and the beast's eyes flashed with a fierce light, staring at the men in black.

"Whose subordinates are you, have any of the leaders come out to tell me?" asked Pure Karma aloud, glancing around. He felt that all the black-clothed people around him were cultivators, the lowest realm was the condensation cultivation realm, and the highest was the ninth layer of the Yuan Vein realm. Such a handwriting, whether it is the king of Cangnan or the king of Canghuai, it is possible.

The words fell, and among the black-clothed people in the row in front of Jingye, three people slowly walked out, standing with their hands in their hands, looking at him with their backs straight, and the one at the front said: "Dead people don't need to know so much, but I can tell you with great mercy that you provoke people who shouldn't be provoked, be careful in the next life!"

"You also deserve to say the word mercy, I didn't provoke anyone here, but I guess you should be Canghuaijun's people, since you are here, you should all stay!" The golden pupil stared at the man in black, took a step towards pure karma, and the golden light in his hand appeared, and his voice was sharp.
