Chapter 46: The Situation
Bai Xuan probably guessed what Yan Mu would ask, so he arched his hand and said,
"Lord Yanmen, please speak. ”
Yan Mu slightly picked up his flame beard and said slowly,
"I don't know where the two of you were born, how could they have something to do with the Gray Sect?"
Bai Xuan hesitated in his heart, he knew that Yanmen had always competed with the Gray Sect, and there had been no major changes over the years, but the appearance of himself and Zi Yan had eliminated the two protectors of the Gray Sect at once, which was something that Yanmen had never dreamed of, so he naturally had to be especially vigilant to prevent fraud.
Bai Xuan licked his lips, stopped talking, and finally sighed,
"This is a long story, the younger generation is a member of the Bai family in the White Emperor City, because the sister ran away for no reason, so she left home to find someone, and then learned that the news was that the people of the Gray Sect arrested the sister, and the head was hot and the Gray Sect fell into a fight, and the result was so back and forth, but it made things a little out of control. ”
Yan Mu frowned slightly,
"Then this Ziyan girl is not your sister?"
Bai Xuan was stunned for a moment, and hurriedly shook his head and said,
"No, no, the Lord of the Yan Sect misunderstood, at first I thought it was her, but I didn't expect that I was misled by the news of the Gray Sect from the beginning, and finally saved Zi Yan, but I didn't know the whereabouts of my sister. ”
Yan Mu nodded and said,
"I see, the Bai family of White Emperor City..."
Listening to Yan Mu talking about his birth, Bai Xuan asked with a little expectation,
"Does the Lord of the Yan Sect know about the Bai family?"
Hearing Bai Xuan's question, a trace of embarrassment instantly flashed across Yan Mu's face, and then he coughed lightly twice,
"It must be a great place to be able to produce a young hero like Brother Bai, the old man is afraid that he is old and a little lonely. ”
Bai Xuan sighed secretly, in fact, he also knew that now on the eastern continent, there are probably not many people who can still know about his Bai family, although he still hopes that Yan Mu can know, but after all, reality is reality.
Yan Mu saw that Bai Xuan was a little lost, and was busy changing the topic to Zi Yan and said,
"Then I don't know what about Miss Ziyan?"
Zi Yan smiled faintly, different from the somewhat sloppy appearance a few days ago, although she just couldn't get used to seeing Yan Yi, but she would still give Yan Mu's face, and today she was also wearing a brand-new Yanluo purple dark silk skirt,
There is a bit of mystery in the beauty.
"Is the Lord of the Flame Gate asking me?"
Zi Yan pointed to her nose, looking knowingly asking.
Yan Mu could see that Zi Yan didn't seem to want to reveal her life experience like Bai Xuan, so she was playing a round game,
"The Purple Girl has such a temperament, she is born into a famous family at first glance, I don't know why she is entangled with the Gray Sect?"
Seeing that Yan Mu had helped her skip birth, Zi Yan shrugged her shoulders and said,
"Actually, it's nothing, at first it was a little bit of a fight, this girl just can't get used to the style of these people, but then I met this kid, I think it's quite interesting to be with him, as for you to ask me why, then I don't know. ”
Yan Mu laughed when he heard this,
"The purple girl is really a lover of personality, and she is a hero among real women. ”
Zi Yan smiled sweetly, and her jade fingers fiddled with the wine glass in front of her and said,
"I don't dare to be a heroine among women, but I just can't get used to those who have a stinky face all day long, and I think I'm superior everywhere. ”
Zi Yan's words obviously refer to Sang scolding Huai, and he is talking about Yan Yi, which can startle Bai Xuan, and when he looks at Yan Yan again, his face is even more difficult to look at.
But Yan Mu didn't know what would happen between Zi Yan and Yan Yan, and the flame Hu said,
"Don't say it's you, the old man also feels deeply, the two of you don't know, as early as more than ten years ago, my Yanmen and the Gray Sect were actually not like this. ”
Bai Xuan was afraid that Zi Yan would offend Yanmen by saying anything more, so he was busy following Yan Mudao,
"What do you mean by this?"
Yan Mu smiled dismally and said,
"At that time, my Yanmen was still a small mercenary group, and the Gray Sect was similar, our two factions helped each other and supported each other, until five years ago, we were all jointly managing this Donggang Continent. ”
Bai Xuan frowned and said,
"And then?"
Yan Mu sighed and said,
"Eh, it backfired, and I don't know when it started, Ash Ze's ambitions suddenly began to swell, wanting to annex my Yanmen and dominate Donggang. ”
Bai Xuan pursed his lips, and then asked,
"But according to what the Lord of the Yan Sect said, the strength of the Gray Sect should be on a par with the Yan Sect, so even if the Gray Ze has this ambition, I'm afraid he doesn't have this strength, right?"
A trace of disdain flashed on Yan Mu's face, and he sneered,
"With him alone, naturally he can't make the climate, but with the crazy growth of the Gray Sect's strength and the return of my Yanmen spies, we really understand. ”
Bai Xuan's eyes rolled, as if he understood something,
"Who's behind the scenes?"
Yan Mu looked at Bai Xuan with some surprise, nodded again and again,
"Brother Bai is really smart, I don't know if Brother Bai has heard of Fengyun Pavilion?"
The Gray Sect Fengyun Pavilion breathed out from one nostril, Bai Xuan knew it as early as when Situ Bi was there, and now listening to what Yan Mu said, Bai Xuan is more clear, it seems that the Fengyun Pavilion is using the hands of the Gray Sect to exert its own ambitions, and wants to truly dominate the entire Eastern Continent.
Thinking like this, I am afraid that the White Emperor City will not be able to escape this fate after all, thinking of this, Bai Xuan also gritted his teeth with hatred for Fengyun Pavilion, and said coldly,
"I didn't see the substance, but I was suppressed by the name of Fengyun Pavilion a few times. ”
Yan Mu also sneered after hearing this, and continued,
"Over the years, Fengyun Pavilion has not officially come forward, all of them have secretly helped the Gray Sect recruit troops and provide soul skills and soul sources. ”
Bai Xuan was a little puzzled,
"If Fengyun Pavilion wants to dominate the Eastern Continent, with their strength, even if it is a head-on attack, I'm afraid that no one in the entire Eastern Continent can resist it, why do they want to borrow the hands of the Gray Sect and make it so painless?"
Yan Mu smiled bitterly, shook his head and said,
"Fengyun Pavilion is the largest gang in the Eastern Continent, and in addition to its strength, a gang also has a reputation and status. This kind of unsightly deed, how could Fengyun Pavilion be put on the table, and there is a gray sect to be this bird, Fengyun Pavilion doesn't have to do it himself, why not?"
Bai Xuan pondered the connection between them, and suddenly had a terrible thought,
"As far as I know, although Fengyun Pavilion and the Gray Sect are secretly in the same stream, the relationship on the surface does not seem to be good. ”
Yan Mu brushed the flame nonsense,
"I'm afraid that the Gray Sect has become infamous in the past two years, and Fengyun Pavilion doesn't want its reputation to be tarnished, right?"
Bai Xuan's expression became a little serious,
"Lord Yanmen, I have a bold idea, if Fengyun Pavilion knew about the Gray Sect's style and ignored it, but secretly helped the Gray Sect manage Donggang, and when the Gray Sect took all the Donggang into his pocket, then the people's grievances would be boiling, what do you think people need at this time?"
Bai Xuan's thoughts were really amazing, Yan Mu suddenly felt a chill on his spine, and said in a solemn voice,
"What does the White Brother mean... At that time, Fengyun Pavilion will really come forward and wipe out the Gray Sect?"
Bai Xuanzheng color road,
"Yes, in this way, not only will the powerful Gray Sect be solved, but in the eyes of the people, they will be like savior heroes, and when the time comes, whether it is the territory of Donggang or the hearts of the people, they will all be in the bag, stabilize Donggang, and it will be easier to take down the entire Eastern Continent. ”
Yan Mu exhaled a long breath and said slowly,
"Brother Bai is really thoughtful, the old man didn't expect this layer, the old man has always pointed the finger at the Gray Sect, and he didn't think about the Fengyun Pavilion's plan to kill two birds with one stone. ”
Hearing Bai Xuan and Yan Mu's words, the two elders on the side were a little impatient, and the Great Elder spoke first,
"Lord Yanmen, if it is really as Bai Gongzi said, then it will be a big deal. ”
Yan Mu frowned and said,
"What do you mean by that?"
The Great Elder first glanced at the Second Elder, then glanced at Yan Kui on the side, and stopped talking.
Yan Yi saw that there seemed to be something strange in this, and said angrily,
"What's the matter, Yan Kui, you say. ”
Seeing that he was named, Yan Kui shook his head helplessly and said,
"It's not a big deal, the two elders are a little worried, it's just that this morning, my soldiers intercepted a secret agent from the Gray Sect who sent a letter. ”
Yan Mu said a little unhappily,
"Why didn't I know about this?"
Then he turned his puzzled gaze to Yan Yi.
Yan Yi was also surprised, because he didn't know about it at all.
However, Yan Kui still looks indifferent,
"It's not that Ash Ze, I'm afraid that I lost my left and right hands all of a sudden, and I messed up, and I was in a hurry to send a letter to Fengyun Pavilion, and the letters were all some messages for help, but they had been stopped by my soldiers, this kind of letter, Ash Ze sent out hundreds of letters every year, and we soldiers on the front line were naturally not surprised, and the two elders were a little overreacting. ”
Hearing Yan Kui's description, Yan Mu frowned again, Yan Mu knew that Yan Kui was the number one of the first-class generals of Yanmen, although he was young and promising, but after all, he was still too young, sometimes he was too domineering, and even some generals were outside, and the military order was not accepted.
Yan Mu glared at Yan Kui, his flaming beard seemed to suddenly burn, and he reprimanded,
"The old man said that all matters related to the Gray Sect, no matter how small, must be reported!"
Yan Kui didn't expect Yan Mu to give him so much face, and even reprimanded himself in front of outsiders like Bai Xuan Ziyan, and arched his hand reluctantly,
"The subordinates know that they are wrong. ”
Seeing that Yan Kui admitted his mistake, Yan Mu also wanted to give him a step down, sighed and waved his hand, and then turned to the two elders and said,
"If it's really as Yan Kui said, it doesn't seem to be a big deal?"
The Great Elder hesitated a little, and the Second Elder continued,
"Door master, all along, Ash Ze has always wanted Fengyun Pavilion to provide material help, and now in just a few months, the left and right protectors have been killed by Bai Gongzi, so the news has reached Fengyun Pavilion, I'm afraid it can't be compared with the scheduled request for help!"
Yan Mu's thick fingers tapped lightly on the table top of the red jade, as if lost in thought.
After a while, he suddenly turned to Bai Xuandao,
"Brother Bai, the old man has a reluctant request, I don't know what Brother Bai wants?"
Bai Xuan was busy with his hand,
"Lord Yanmen is polite, please tell me something. ”
Yan Mu narrowed his eyes, a strange smile appeared on his face, and said slowly,
"Brother Bai and Purple Girl are young, not only are they skilled but also thoughtful, and now I am in Yanmen when I am employing people, I don't know the two..."
Bai Xuan couldn't imagine that Yan Mu wanted to recruit himself and Zi Yan, but he refused,
Bai Xuan can only understand the kindness of the Yanmen master, Bai Xuan's trip is only to find the sister, before he finds the sister, I am afraid that it will be difficult to respond to the Yanmen master's wishes. Don't hide it from the Yan Sect Master, I originally wanted to say goodbye to you and go on the road after this dinner. ”
Yan Qiao'er, who had been immersed in eating, suddenly jumped up when she heard that Bai Xuan was leaving,
"Big brother, you're leaving tomorrow?"
Yan Qiao'er's scream really startled Bai Xuan, but she had no choice but to smile bitterly,
"It's been a long time since I was seriously injured, if I don't set off again, my sister..."
Although Yan Qiao'er knew that Bai Xuan was definitely going to leave, she was really reluctant, just after listening to Bai Xuan's words, Yan Qiao'er's eyes slowly moistened, and she murmured,
"I don't want my big brother to go..."
Seeing that this little girl was about to cry in a flash flood, Zi Yan was a clever figure, and without waiting for Yan Qiao'er to cry, she just hugged her whole and shouted,
"Obediently, my sister will take you out to play. ”
Completely ignoring the other people present, he ran out of the banquet hall with Yan Qiao'er in his arms.
In the corridor, the cry of "wow wow", mixed with the bell of "bell bell", made Bai Xuan feel bad in his heart.
Yan Mu was indifferent when he saw Yan Qiao'er being taken away by Zi Yan like this, and sighed,
"It seems that Qiao'er really likes you, doesn't Brother Bai think about it?"
Bai Xuan saw that Yan Mu knew that he was going to find his lost sister, but he still let him stay, could it be that in Yan Mu's eyes, dealing with the Gray Sect and dominating Donggang was really more important than these family affections?
Bai Xuan showed a trace of sadness on his face, and did not speak, but bowed his head slightly and made a farewell salute to Yan Mu.
Yan Mu saw that Bai Xuan had made up his mind, and said in a deep voice,
"Since Brother Bai has decided so, the old man will no longer force it, but it is getting late today, so it is better to leave tomorrow, which can be regarded as one more night with Qiao'er. ”
Now that Yan Mu had already said this, Bai Xuan also felt that there was no need to say anything more, and after thanking Yan Mu with a big gift, Bai Xuan was ready to go back to the room first.
