The heat bakes the whole capital, the heat wave on the shops makes people faint, and the streets and alleys can be seen everywhere with people rolling up their sleeves and trouser legs.

Men were able to roll up their sleeves and trousers, but women wore their sleeves to their wrists at most, and girls who had not left the court had to wear lighter clothes.

As dusk approached, the heat dropped a little, but the heat continued, and mosquitoes began to wreak havoc.

Flying Feather God General's Mansion.

The smoke slowly drifted from the incense burner to repel mosquitoes, and the boy who was about five or six years old sat directly on the floor, holding a piece of ice and gnawing on it, and Liu Feiyu on the couch looked at it with blank eyes, secretly angry in his heart, and the stinky boy didn't know that he was a compassionate father at all.

Although Liu Feiyu is a god general, he actually doesn't have much gold and silver at home, but although ice cubes are difficult to store, there will always be some.

Holding the ice cube directly and gnawing on it is really tyrannical.

Liu Feiyu had just returned to the capital a few days ago, and because he was injured by Wang Xingzhi, he couldn't continue to hurry, so he followed the Wild Grass Hall to recuperate in the city stationed on the border for a while.

But there are not many people in the capital who know that Liu Feiyu is back.

Just when Liu Feiyu was looking at his son who was gnawing on ice, he heard a voice talking outside the door.

"Brother and sister, let's get busy first, I'll go inside and talk to Feiyu. ”

The door was pushed open from the outside.

As far as Liu Feiyu could see, he saw Jiang Tingyu with his hands on his back.

"Head Jiang, why are you here?"

Jiang Tingyu's expression was solemn, he looked at Liu Feiyu, who was lying on the bed with a very pale face, and said in a deep voice: "The news that the mad god will send back is not described in detail, what happened to you in Beiyan, and you were so seriously injured?"

At that time, Liu Feiyu had already rushed to the outer realm of Beiyan, which was not within the reconnaissance range of the Tianshuyuan spies, and the main targets of the Tianshuyuan spies lurking in Beiyan were all in Zhongqing City, they just knew that the Beiyan Emperor had invited out of the Dao Palace, but it was not clear who it was.

And these things, the mad god will not describe in detail in the letter.

Just said a rough idea in a few words, this itself is also the style of Crazy Grass Hall, it is unrealistic to ask him to write a bunch of letters in a long way, although there are clerks with the army at the border of Yanjiang, but obviously the letter was written by Crazy Grass Hall himself, the handwriting is crooked, and it is very ugly.

"Pian'er, go to your mother. Liu Feiyu blasted away his ice-gnawing son.

The kid's eyes were rolling, thinking that he had always been bullied by his father before, and now his father was lying in bed sick, and when the time came, he would be able to pit his father at will.

Although Daddy is sick in bed, he can also instill thoughts and instigate bad things, even if he causes something at that time, just say that Daddy instigated it, that is simply the perfect plan.

The so-called tiger father has no dog, even if Xiao Yanagi Pian looks delicate and weak, and looks as cute and good-looking as a girl, but obviously it is not really as well-behaved as it seems.

The once simple little doll was pitted by his father every day, and it will always grow up.

Liu Feiyu didn't know that his son had the idea of cheating his father, he watched his son run out of the room with a bounce, his face immediately became solemn, he looked at Jiang Tingyu and said: "I didn't expect that Emperor Beiyan would actually invite the old monster of Dao Palace Wang Xingzhi out, even if I join forces with Crazy Grass Hall, it is not Wang Xingzhi's enemy at all." ”

He briefly recounted it.

Jiang Tingyu groped his chin, his expression was solemn, and said: "Wang Xingzhi became famous even much earlier than Dean Xue, when he crossed the threshold of the Four Realms, Dean Xue was still just a child, in today's world, there are only a handful of old guys who have lived for nearly a hundred years, but they are undoubtedly extremely terrifying existences. ”

As long as you step into the threshold of the Five Realms, the longevity has increased significantly, and the cultivators can easily break through the limit of human lifespan, although there are also ordinary people who can live to be more than a hundred years old, but everyone in the Five Realms can live to be one hundred and thirty years old, even if the appearance becomes old, the physical fitness is still very strong, which is completely different things.

And by breaking through the barriers of the Five Realms, Shouyuan will become more, and it will be easy to live to be two hundred years old.

Although Wang Xingzhi is nearly 100 years old, he has not crossed the age of 100, and the cultivation itself is endlessly dangerous, and the average life expectancy is even inferior to that of ordinary people, after all, cultivators can fall anytime and anywhere.

This is also the price to be paid for the pursuit of 'immortality'.

Wang Xingzhi had already crossed the threshold of the Five Realms in his early years, and after decades of experience, even if his qualifications were poor, his cultivation realm would not be weak, not to mention that Wang Xingzhi was also a genius in cultivation when he was young, Jiang Tingyu guessed that Wang Xingzhi's current cultivation realm may not be more than at the peak of the Five Realms.

Liu Feiyu smacked his tongue a little, "Wang Xingzhi, that old monster, has already broken through the Five Realms barrier?"

Jiang Tingyu said: "It's not impossible. ”

In the cultivation of mountains and rivers, that is, only in the quiet land of mountains and seas, there are land immortal-like characters who have broken through the barriers of the five realms, and in the entire territory of Jiang Kingdom, at least on the bright side, except for the one in the Pear Flower Academy, there is no second existence to break through the barriers of the five realms, but there was a Li Daoling back then, but unfortunately the soul returned to Daotian when the realm was broken.

Xue Wangwu and Chen Moxi were only standing in the vicinity of the Five Realms barrier, and they didn't have the ability to break it.

Wang Xingzhi is not the strongest in the Dao Palace.

Jiang Tingyu only speculated according to Wang Xingzhi's age, and who could cross the threshold of the Five Realms was a mediocre talent, but it was by no means easy to break through the barriers of the Five Realms, it was really difficult to reach the sky.

Maybe Wang Xingzhi is still in the threshold of the Five Realms, but he has at least touched the barrier of the Five Realms, and it may be broken at any time.

The Dao Palace is in a quiet place of mountains and seas, and the old monster that came out of there, even if it breaks through the barriers of the Five Realms, is not an uncommon thing.

"You stay at home and cultivate, Your Majesty has his own arrangements for the affairs of the Eastern Frontier, and he happens to accompany his family more, his younger brother and sister are good women, and Pian'er's little guy is not bad, so you have to train well." ”

Jiang Tingyu didn't stay in the Divine General's Mansion for a long time, chatted with Liu Feiyu casually, and then left.

......

At the foot of Sword Cliff Mountain.

By the babbling stream, there stood a figure, pacing back and forth, sometimes looking up at the moon, sometimes looking down in contemplation, as if he had a thousand emotions.

"Hey, Jiang Zihua, why are you here?"

Although Jiang Zihua occasionally went to Jianya to see Li Mengzhou, and said that some of them did not appear, but there were not many times in total, and at this moment, Li Mengzhou was somewhat surprised to see Jiang Zihua.

"I haven't come to see you for a few days, how about it, have you become stupid after staying alone in Sword Cliff for nearly a month?" Jiang Zihua didn't dare to imagine this kind of thing, there was not even a person to talk to in the entire Sword Cliff, what was the difference between being locked up in a small black room?

If it weren't for the fact that someone dedicated to delivering food every day, he would have taken the time to come and take a look, and he was really worried that Li Mengzhou would go crazy in Sword Cliff.

Li Mengzhou said: "It's really boring, did the teacher say when I will be able to leave, my current cultivation has recovered, and I feel that even if I continue to stay in the Sword Cliff to comprehend the sword intent, it is unlikely that I will break through to the four realms." ”

Jiang Zihua said: "Maybe you will be able to step into the threshold of the Four Realms after a few more months, but I think you will definitely not be able to stand it, there is no prohibition on this Sword Cliff, you think you can, you can naturally leave at any time, but if you don't fall down the mountain, I am afraid that you are not willing to let you leave so soon, after all, on the bright side, you are being punished, how can you go down the Sword Cliff casually." ”

Li Mengzhou sneered: "I have already withstood Xie Chunfeng's sword, and after thinking about it in the sword cliff, it is a good look, if you don't fall off the mountain, if you have an opinion, let them come to me." ”

During this time in the Sword Cliff, Li Mengzhou was indeed a little aggrieved, after all, he couldn't go anywhere for nearly a month, even if he wasn't suffocated, he was on the verge of going crazy.

But the sword intent tempering his will for nearly a month will not make him really crazy, and it is normal to have a slight fluctuation in his emotions, which is nothing more than a catharsis.

Jiang Zihua showed a weird smile and said: "Don't say it, there are indeed many people in the Mountain who want to challenge you, except for some people who have the intention of avenging Lu Changge, most people think that your identity as Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy is not worthy of the name, and there are many people who have this idea, so it's not just the disciples who don't fall down the mountain who want to challenge you." ”

Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy, who didn't even step into the threshold of the Four Realms, if he was defeated, he would also slap the face of the Sword Academy of the Imperial Palace, even if many people knew that Li Mengzhou had not died after receiving Xie Chunfeng's sword, he was still full of confidence.

"It is said outside that Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy of the Palace is a waste of firewood, but he can't stand his high status, and if he wants to make a name for himself in the cultivation world, he must either have an extremely high cultivation realm, or he will challenge the strong cultivator, it seems that there is no easier way to make a name for himself than defeating Mr. Seven of the Sword Academy. ”

Li Mengzhou looked at Jiang Zihua with some astonishment, and then pouted: "How boring is this kind of thing, how can I say that I am also the seventh Mr. of the Sword Academy now, how can they challenge it if they want to? Only Shen Qiubai and Bei Zangfeng are qualified to challenge me." ”

Jiang Zihua couldn't help but admire: "You are really stinky and shameless." ”

Li Mengzhou smiled: "I'll just treat you as if you're praising me." ”

The seventh gentleman of the Sword Academy of the Palace is a personal inheritance, and his status is noble, and it is true that no one is qualified to challenge, but if he does not accept the challenge, it seems that he is easy to be criticized, if he is like Ning Haoran, even if he does not accept the challenge, no one will say anything, but Li Mengzhou is just a monk of the Three Realms, and there are many people who are not convinced.

However, how could Li Mengzhou care about this, if he accepted the challenge, wouldn't it mean that he would have to fight with people every day? He was not idle and had nothing to do, how could he have the time to pay attention to these people.

He didn't care about his reputation, it didn't matter what others said, as long as he didn't mess with him, he didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Jiang Zihua said with some excitement at this time: "Those things are not important, the most important thing we are closest to the Palace Sword Academy is that Senior Brother is about to return to the capital!"

Li Mengzhou was a little stunned, to be honest, he had forgotten for a while that there was still a senior brother in the Palace Sword Academy.

Since he was admitted to the Leaving Palace Sword Academy, he has only heard of the senior brother, and it is said that the senior brother went out to practice very early and has not come back for a long time.

The eldest gentleman of the Leaving Palace Sword Academy is also the chief pro-descendant, who is the most demonic figure in Jiang Guo who can stand side by side with Shen Qiubai and Beizangfeng, and is also one of the people who is most likely to cross the threshold of the Five Realms in his twenties.

Ouyang Shengxue!

It's the name of the elder brother.

That is definitely a very legendary figure in the Imperial Sword Academy.

Except for Dean Xue Wangwu, Ouyang Shengxue is definitely the person most admired by the disciples of the Sword Academy.

Looking at Jiang Zihua's somewhat excited look, it was obvious that he was also one of the admirers of the senior brother.

Li Mengzhou didn't feel anything, the senior brother was still just a stranger to him after all, although he was also looking forward to seeing the senior brother, and he would have respect in his heart, but emotionally, it was obviously far inferior to the fourth senior brother.

Seeing Li Mengzhou's slightly calm appearance, Jiang Zihua said very dissatisfied: "Senior brother is the chief of the Sword Academy of the Imperial Palace, don't look at the chief, but Xie Chunfeng can't be compared with the senior brother, if the senior brother was there, Xie Chunfeng wouldn't dare to draw his sword from you." ”

Li Mengzhou said: "It was Lu Zhonghui who asked Xie Chunfeng to draw his sword, even if it was a senior brother, it would not be Lu Zhonghui's opponent, even the teacher's attitude towards Lu Zhonghui was a little unclear, could the senior brother still stop Xie Chunfeng from drawing his sword?"

This is of course unlikely.

No matter how strong Ouyang Shengxue is, he can't be stronger than the main road in the middle of the mountain, could it be that the senior brother has a bad temper, even if he is facing the middle of the road, he dares to stir up trouble?

It's a possibility.

Jiang Zihua shook his head and said: "That's not it, Senior Brother is a very gentle person, he has the spirit of sword cultivation and the demeanor of a gentleman, but if the teacher and Senior Brother are present, even Lu Zhonghui will leave some leeway." ”

Li Mengzhou's expression was a little weird, how could a sword cultivator with a gentlemanly demeanor sound weird.

Characters like Shen Qiubai, Bei Zangfeng and Ouyang Shengxue are even higher than the prince in terms of status, although they don't let Lu Zhonghui have any scruples, but it is really difficult to do anything in the capital.

He and Xue Wangwu are personal grievances, and outsiders can't care about it, but in a young and strong man with a well-known identity, he is protected by His Majesty the Emperor, Xue Wangwu's identity and realm are there, even His Majesty the Emperor has to give some face, but even if Lu Zhonghui is the head of a sect, he is indeed much worse than Xue Wangwu in terms of identity, and he dare not disobey His Majesty's orders at all.

It is not so much that Ouyang Shengxue appeared in Chaosi Lane, which would leave room in the middle of the road, but rather to give His Majesty the Emperor face.

In short, Ouyang Shengxue's return to the capital is an excellent thing for the Imperial Palace Sword Academy.

Li Mengzhou asked Jiang Zihua to prepare a pot of herbal tea, and then returned to the sword cliff.

Although he could leave at any time, he always felt a little unwilling to think that there might be the sword intent of the Lishan Sword Immortal at the peak, and he gave up after just one attempt.

He stood in the comatose position, looking at the peak of the Sword Cliff.

Even if everyone in the world says that he is a waste wood and is not worthy of being the seventh gentleman of the Palace Sword Academy, Li Mengzhou has this kind of blind self-confidence, and he feels that he is the number one genius in the world.

Looking back on the past years, in just half a year, he has stood at the height of the threshold of the four realms from an ordinary person, who else can there be besides him Li Mengzhou?

Even if the Daozang records that there was once a person like Li Mengzhou, who only stepped into the path of cultivation when he was beyond the age of visualization, he did not approach the threshold of the Four Realms in half a year.

If that's not genius, then what is?

Li Mengzhou secretly thought that those who maliciously slandered him were purely out of jealousy.

......

In an inn in the inner city.

The sky was full of stars with a silver glow.

The two girls sat in a small courtyard.

They looked at each other.

The stone table in the middle is set with some wine and food, both meat and vegetarian, and it costs at least three or four taels of silver, which is really a luxury.

Gu Shiyan has lived in the Xianfu Inn for a long time, and she has never been back since the Water Mirror Division was going to build Li Mengzhou's small courtyard, and because of the strong sword qi left by Xie Chunfeng, the entire Chaosi Lane was closed.

During the period, Aunt Feng came to find her, and by the way, she also gave some broken silver, originally Gu Shiyan didn't want to take it, although Aunt Feng opened a noodle restaurant, but because her husband was sick in bed all the year round, she actually didn't earn much silver, but Gu Shiyan spent all the silver that Li Mengzhou left on her, and had to put down her son to pick up Aunt Feng's broken silver.

And the table of wine and food in front of her, Gu Shiyan didn't spend any money, not because this is the Xianfu Inn, although the Xianfu Inn will provide free accommodation for foreign cultivators, but the money for the meal still has to be given.

Sitting opposite Gu Shiyan was Xiao Zhinan.

As the personal heir of Langhuan Jianlu of Beiyan, there is naturally no shortage of silver, even if she traveled thousands of miles from Beiyan to Jiang Country, it cost a lot, but there is still a lot leftover.

The Xianfu Inn is very large, and there is more than one in the capital, why Gu Shiyan appeared in Xiao Zhinan's courtyard, in fact, is a very simple reason, although Gu Shiyan spends silver like flowing water, but when she really can't take out the silver, she also understands the dilemma of having no money and not moving an inch, and if she lives with Xiao Zhinan, then you don't have to worry about eating.

She didn't treat Xiao Zhinan as the wrongdoer, but she just tried it a little, Xiao Zhinan didn't say anything, so Gu Shiyan was very at ease.

Xiao Zhinan silently looked at Gu Shiyan who was sitting opposite, and said calmly: "I thought you were just staying here, but I didn't expect to live here for nearly a month. In Chaosi Lane, how can Li Mengzhou afford to raise you?"

Gu Shiyan was silent for a long time.

Her amount of food is indeed a bit large, and she can't eat fat at all, she just has a heavy appetite, she feels that the world is big, only love and food can not be disappointed.

Now she has no love, so food is a must.

She didn't continue to be silent, but looked at Xiao Zhinan very seriously and said, "When Li Mengzhou comes down from the Sword Cliff, you can ask him to return the silver to you." ”

So Xiao Zhinan inexplicably became Li Mengzhou's creditor.
