Chapter Eighty-Eight: A Trip to Jiangnan
For the next period of time, Xuanyi took the initiative to go to the alliance every day to receive tasks, but he never received a rewarding task, which was nothing more than a few trips to grab a few pieces of territory.
After the fiasco of the Endless Forest, the Juxian Pavilion almost completely withdrew from Jinhai Province, and all the Tangkou and the remaining gangs defected to the branches of the neighboring provinces. Fortunately, there are not many hall masters and masters above the Dharma Protector who died in Juxian Pavilion, but they suffered from the second- and third-level gangs in the alliance with it, and almost all the troops were wiped out and removed from the martial arts, so it caused a major reshuffle of the power of Jinhai Province.
Xuanyi didn't care about all this, he tried to find out the news of Xia Qingyu, but after all, he found nothing.
On this day, Xuanyi once again practiced the two natural magic that he had just obtained, and after many repeated exercises, the two magic spells were already relatively proficient, but unfortunately the mana value was consumed hugely, and there were only 150 points left, and Xuanyi had to "save some flowers".
A few days ago, the Kongo Temple sent six warrior monks to bring the seriously injured Zhende and the discouraged Zhenyin back to the temple. Similarly, Wanyan was also taken away by acquaintances for treatment, and Jian Feng and several others also left one after another.
At this time, Xuanyi was the only one left in the inn, and he held the letter written to him by the abbot Master Jingxuan alone, in which he praised his behavior of frustrating demons and saving his fellow disciples, and at the same time ordered him to change his route to Jiangnan Province to meet the deputy temple Master Jingnian for sightseeing, which is also the top sect in Jiangnan Province, and the sixth generation of disciples of the Huanyu Sword Sect.
Obviously, the temple has taken Xuanyi as the key training object, and ordinary people can't participate in the grand ceremony of this kind of top sect at all, and it is clearly an opportunity for you to brush up on your presence and reputation.
Xuanyi put away the abbot's letter and pushed open the door and went downstairs, and the sharp-eyed Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him warmly, although the little master in front of him had stayed at home for several months, but the silver money was not less than half a cent, and he asked flatteringly: "Little master, do you need to eat fast?"
"Yes, you can prepare two dishes and four steamed buns for me!" Now that this identity is a disciple of Buddhism, he naturally has to abide by the rules that he should abide by.
"Okay, take a moment!" Xiao Er ran to the back hall to make arrangements.
Just when Xuanyi was eating, there was also movement on the side of the body, it turned out that Long Yu was visiting, he was knocking on the door of Xuanyi's room and asked, "Brother Xian?" Xuanyi had to go back to the room and switch back to the body.
As soon as he opened the door, Long Yu asked after entering the room: "Brother Xian, on the 5th of next month, my master's Huanyu Sword Sect will hold a ceremony for six generations of disciples to accept disciples, I am fortunate to be invited to participate in the observation, I see that you have nothing to do in the near future, why don't you go with me?"
"This... It's not very convenient. Xuanyi couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, why did one or two of them want me to go to this Universal Sword Sect, I really have some skills.
"There's nothing inconvenient, you can go with me!" Long Yu patted Xuanyi's shoulder and smiled heartily: "This apprenticeship ceremony is actually an opportunity for the young generation of our martial arts dynasty to communicate, as long as you have the ability, you can show it to your heart's content, once you become famous, the benefits are huge!"
"Okay, I'll go with my eldest brother. "It's all said and done, and then there is a little bit of ignorance in refusing, in all fairness, Long Yu's attitude towards Xuanyi is still quite close.
"Well, you will have a good rest for more than ten days, don't go out on any more tasks, practice more exercises, and you will definitely be able to make a name for yourself in the martial arts this ceremony!"
He reached out and took out a stack of silver tickets from his bosom and put them on the table: "Here are three thousand taels, the money that the eldest brother bought from you for the broken sword, although it is a little less, but you are not allowed to refuse!" Long Yu's tone could not be refused, and after speaking, he strode away, leaving behind a stunned Xuanyi.
There is also a central province between Jiangnan Province and Jinhai Province, and it is tens of thousands of miles away from Zhenyuan City, after resting for two days, Long Yu greeted Xuanyi and set off for the Huanyu Sword Sect with dozens of young masters in the alliance, this time Ruan Yudie, who was inseparable from Long Yu, did not appear in the team of the long journey, so dozens of people gave up riding in the carriage and rode away. And Xuanyi's second body rented a carriage and rushed towards the Huanyu Sword Sect at the same time, as for what would happen when the two bodies met, they could only let it go.
Long Yu and his party walked extremely fast, and it took less than a week to reach the boundary of Jiangnan Province. Riding day and night was an extremely painful experience for Xuanyi, not to mention the flesh and blood on the inner thighs, and the bones in his body were about to fall apart, but fortunately, he made the medicine powder through medical skills, which made the wound heal faster and alleviate part of the pain.
"The front is Guangxin City!The Huanyu Sword Sect is among them!" Long Yu pointed to the towering city wall in the distance and said excitedly, his eyes were full of nostalgia, he had studied in the Huanyu Sword Sect for fifteen years, and he was extremely familiar with every grass and tree in Guangxin City.
Long Yu shouted, the horsewhip threw out a crisp pop, and rushed over first, and the people in Xuanyi also shouted loudly and chased forward when they saw this. About fifty meters in front of the city gate, there were already several teams of swordsmen dressed in white waiting, and it was the Huanyu Sword Sect that sent them to greet the gang members who participated in this ceremony.
A middle-aged man with a long beard was standing at the head of the team, holding his long beard and looking at Long Yu who was galloping wildly with a smile on his face.
Long Yu rolled the saddle and dismounted and saluted respectfully towards the long-bearded man: "See Uncle Xiaoyao!"
The man's name is Yi Xiaoyao, ranking sixth among the four generations of disciples of the Huanyu Sword Sect, while Long Yu's master Shangbin is ranked fourth, there are a total of twelve disciples in the four generations, Yi Xiaoyao's strength is definitely the existence of the top five, so his prestige among the disciples is extremely high. But he is indifferent to fame and fortune, and only has an idle position in the sword faction, and he is willing to guide the middle and junior generations of the faction when he has nothing to do, so he is quite respected.
"Why do you bother to make this big gift, please hurry up!" Yi Xiaoyao stepped forward to help Long Yu up, and his eyes flashed: "My nephew's exercises seem to be improving again?"
Long Yu smiled proudly: "Don't hide it from Uncle Shi, I have recently learned a style of swordsmanship, and I will ask Uncle Shi for a lesson or two tomorrow!"
"Accompany me at any time, I hope you don't cry like when you were a child!" Yi Yao responded narrowly, and the embarrassed Long Yu's face was flushed, so he had to change the topic by introducing the Xuanyi people.
Yi Xiaoyao carefully looked at the group behind Long Yu and nodded frequently: "All of them are talents!" There are several people whose internal strength is pure, and even he is secretly amazed.
"Come! It's been a long journey, and follow me back to the Sword Sect to rest, the ceremony is still three days away!"
"Thank you, senior!"
