Chapter 25: Waiting for the Rabbit

"Don't you hate me?"

Xia Fan temporarily shook off the distracting thoughts in his mind, and looked at the woman in front of him who claimed to be the true granddaughter of the master.

It makes sense.

He killed the other party's grandfather, and they can be described as having a blood feud with each other.

The problem is that she is a woman who cannot be handled by common sense.

Since the concubine married into the Xie family, the concubine has been a member of the Xie family, and from then on, the concubine has no relationship with her grandfather. ”

Sure enough.

The woman's answer still made Xia Fan speechless.

"Don't you have any affection for your grandfather?"

"The concubine regarded her grandfather as her grandfather, and her grandfather ever regarded the concubine as her granddaughter?"

The woman said in an indifferent tone.

"You hate him?"

Xia Fan said thoughtfully.

"What's the use of hate?"

The woman said expressionlessly.

β€œ...... I understand. ”

Xia Fan was silent for a moment.

After speaking.

He turned and disappeared into the house.

The woman silently raised her head, turned around and knelt in front of the incense case, and looked at the nameless spirit cards in front of the incense case with empty eyes.

Not for a moment.

Xia Fan, who had left the Guanfu, seemed to wander aimlessly through the deserted streets.

He didn't bother to complain about the ethical drama in Xie Linyuan's family.

In terms of generation.

Xie Linyuan is also a real great-grandson of Shishi.

And that's not all.

He and the Yin Yang Sect, which has an enmity with the Divine Sword Villa, also have a continuous blood relationship.

Xie Thirteen was also fierce enough back then.

The wife is the daughter of the sect master of the Yin Yang Sect, and the sworn brother is the master of the Forgotten Soul Sect.

As a result, in the end, he let his sworn brother stab him in the back, and his wife might not let the sect master of the Yin and Yang Sect kill his relatives for righteousness.

According to Xie Linyuan's mother.

The real reason for the Demon Sect's slaughter of the Divine Sword Villa was that it was devoured instead of being able to win it over, which almost led to the destruction of the Demon Sect's plans.

Moreover, she had told Xie Linyuan before that this was a conspiracy of the Demon Sect against Xie Shisan from beginning to end, and it was too late for him to react.

Does this mean.

When Xie Shisan married the daughter of the sect leader of the Yin Yang Sect and befriended Shishizhen, he didn't know the identities of the two.

Wait until the wood is ready.

The Demon Sect suddenly used this to coerce Xie Thirteen into submission, and what choice would Xie Thirteen make?

Hiss.

The state of mind of such a generation at the time of Xie Thirteen was really tangled and painful.

Judging by the results alone.

The arrogant Xie Shisan not only did not succumb to the threat of the Demon Sect, but also almost ruined the major affairs of the Demon Sect, and finally caused death to himself and his family.

But what about Shi Shizhen? What was the reason why he felt so guilty about Xie Shisan?

Perhaps the two have been together for a long time and have become sworn brothers in the true sense.

It's just that he had to be ordered to kill Xie Shisan.

The fact that he can kill Xie 13 does not prove how strong he is, judging from Xie 13's performance when he was born out of nowhere, it is not an exaggeration to say that he is the protagonist of the previous generation.

However, the master really succeeded in killing Xie Shisan, and it is estimated that there are still some hidden secrets in this.

Out of guilt for Xie Thirteen.

Over the years, Shishi Zhen has been taking care of the descendants of the Xie family, and even did not hesitate to marry his own granddaughter into the Xie family.

Pity.

He used his own granddaughter as a tool.

So much so that Xie Linyuan's mother didn't look like a normal person.

She said.

She really regarded Shishi as her grandfather, but did Shishi really regard herself as a granddaughter?

This has been made clear.

Since Shishi Zhen doesn't regard her as a granddaughter, she will no longer regard Shishi Zhen as a grandfather, so she has no waves in her heart for him.

Is it true that she hates Shishi?

It should be hated.

Does hatefulness work?

Useless.

After all, Shishi is really a great grandmaster, and she has no power to resist her grandfather, who is so powerful in her eyes.

She would cultivate Xie Linyuan so extremely.

It's hard to guarantee that this woman not only wants Xie Linyuan to revitalize the Divine Sword Villa, I'm afraid she also wants to let Xie Linyuan grow up to the point where she can really kill the master.

However, Xie Linyuan, who had limited talent, disappointed her.

Let's be honest.

In Xia Fan's eyes.

What this woman did was actually no different from that of the teacher.

Her grandfather used her as a tool.

And she used her son as a tool.

It's really deserving of being biological.

It is difficult for a Qing official to interrupt family affairs, and Xia Fan will not find trouble to interfere in other people's family affairs.

All he could do was give a reminder.

Be kind to your son.

Don't let him be the next you.

"Childe, you really make it easy to find the warbler. ”

At this time.

A handsome young man with red lips and white teeth hurriedly stepped forward, and said with a little resentment in his words.

"Didn't I tell you to stay near the city gates, and I was going to blame me for catching up?"

Xia Fan pursed his lips without squinting.

"But what if Childe forgets to come back to find Yingying?"

Liu Yingying muttered softly.

"Forget it, forget it, anyway, you're such a big person, it's hard to get lost. ”

Xia Fan said disapprerovitically.

β€œ...... Does Childe dislike the warbler?"

The willow warbler drooped her head and twitched her little nose.

"Yingying, you should know that you can't stay with me all the time. ”

Xia Fan said with a casual look.

β€œ...... Of course, the warbler knows. ”

Liu Yingying was silent for a moment.

"Whoever does things with lust loves love, and besides, I am not a womanizer. Xia Fan said softly. "You know that I will take you in because of your master's affection, not because I have a crush on you, right?"

"The warbler is clear. ”

The willow warbler bit her red lip lightly, and her voice trembled slightly.

"Yingying, you are a smart girl, staying by my side will not bring you any good, if you want me to look at you differently, then you must show the value that I value like your master. ”

said.

Xia Fan stopped in front of an inn.

Yuelai Inn?

Good name, just stay here!

"What does Childe want Yingying to do?"

After stepping into the inn next to Xia Fan, it didn't take long for the two of them to sit at the table near the window.

Liu Yingying hesitated for a long time, until the meals brought by Xiao Er occupied the entire table, and she finally mustered up the courage to raise her head and look directly at Xia Fandao.

"I need to form an intelligence network all over Shenzhou, but unfortunately your master can't get out of the way in Nanjun, and my other subordinate also has important tasks, so I hope you can develop an intelligence base, just like your master did in Nanjun. ”

Xia Fan picked up a piece of roasted tender meat and put it in his mouth, feeling the elasticity of the meat and the fat juice bursting out, he said casually while eating.

"Childe, you are looking too high at the warbler. ”

Liu Yingying couldn't help but smile bitterly when she heard this.

"Don't be too busy refusing yet, you can contact your master about this matter and talk about it. ”

Xia Fan was intently sweeping the food on the table, and he didn't even look at Liu Yingying.

"Yes, Childe. ”

Liu Yingying sighed secretly in her heart.

She still disappointed Master after all.

She could hear it.

On the surface, Xia Fan asked her to develop the so-called intelligence base, but in fact, she was driving herself.

Does Childe think she's a burden?

Wrong.

If Childe thought she was a burden, he wouldn't have brought him back when he was in Nanjun.

But why did Childe suddenly decide to drive him away?

Could it be thatβ€”

She thought of Xia Fan's departure before.

After the two tracked Xie Linyuan to Qingsong County, Xia Fan went alone to investigate Xie Linyuan's whereabouts after instructing Liu Yingying.

As a result, she finally found Xia Fan.

Xia Fan signaled for no reason that she shouldn't stay by his side.

Does this mean that Xia Fan temporarily let himself leave?

So what was the reason for Xia Fan's decision?

The willow warbler was very curious.

"Don't be cranky, hurry up and eat the vegetables, or the dishes will be cold. ”

After Xia Fan unintentionally caught a glimpse of the frowning willow warbler, he casually tapped the dishes on the table with chopsticks.

"Okay childe. ”

Liu Yingying, who came back to her senses, hurriedly said.

"Shopkeeper, stay in the hotel. ”

When Xia Fan was almost finished eating the food on the table, a loud voice suddenly sounded at the door of the inn.

He subconsciously tilted his head.

Then a bald head was seen.

To be exact.

He saw a monk with a face full of flesh that did not look like a monk at all.

Why does this monk feel a little familiar?

"Little Er, come to a jar of the best wine and ten catties of cooked meat in the store!"

Moment.

The monk randomly picked an empty table, sat down with a golden knife, and said in a loud voice.

"Childe knows this monk?"

Meanwhile.

Xia Fan had already withdrawn his gaze, but Liu Yingying was keenly aware of Xia Fan's previous abnormality.

"I don't know, I've only met once. ”

Xia Fan shook his head and said.

He remembered.

Isn't this monk the guy who once fought Xie Linyuan in Qingping Mountain?

When the two were inseparable.

As a result, as soon as Xia Fan appeared, they tacitly stopped and went cool.

The question is, why did he come to Qingsong County? Could it be that he also came to Xie Linyuan?

Xia Fan didn't think much about it.

After disposing of the remaining food on the table, he went back to his room to practice.

It's just that in the process of practicing, he deliberately departed a trace of his mind and paid special attention to the movements of the mansion where Xie Linyuan lived.

It went on for days.

Xia Fan lived in the inn in a simple place.

Day and night spent in practice, he was waiting, waiting for the person who intended to be unfavorable to the Xie family to take the initiative to jump out.

Interestingly, the monk also stayed at the inn and did not leave.

Occasionally, they would see each other in the lobby during meals.

By the night of the fifth day.

Xia Fan, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, opened his eyes suddenly, and disappeared into the room in an instant.

"Kill!"

I don't know when.

A group of masked black-clothed men quietly appeared outside the walls of the Guanfu Mansion, and they gestured to each other with their eyes and gestures, and then jumped into the wall one by one.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”

In the courtyard of the mansion.

Xie Linyuan sat on a chair placed in the center of the courtyard, and around him were circles of sharp long swords.

The moment the man in black infiltrated the mansion.

He had already stood up from his chair, and at the same time, the long sword at his side kept shaking slightly, making a sword sound.

"Go!"

I saw him spin around and wave his hand, and the long swords on the ground shot out in all directions like a shocking leap.

"Ahh

Suddenly.

A terrible scream rang out one after another throughout the mansion.

"Be careful! There is a terrifying sword array hidden in the mansion!"

Soon.

A deep voice shouted.

"Hmph! I know it's too late now!"

Xie Linyuan, who was in the middle of the courtyard, snorted coldly, his body kept spinning in place, manipulating the long sword that was constantly circling and flying in the air of the mansion.

Every time a sword falls, it kills a masked man in black.

In addition to swordsmanship, the "Amazing Sword Battle" inherited by Excalibur Villa also has a fierce and powerful Astounding Sword Array!

The stronger the arrayer, the more powerful the sword array will be.

Even the martial artists of the Chaoyuan Realm can barely compete with the grandmaster under the perfect sword formation.

Back then, the Divine Sword Villa itself was a huge Divine Sword Formation, but unfortunately, when the Yin Yang Sect attacked the Divine Sword Villa, the Divine Sword Formation's array was destroyed, which led to the Yin Yang Sect's successful attack on the Villa.

But this is no longer the case.

After fleeing from the Xie family and moving to Qingsong County, the Xie family laid out a terrifying sword array when they built this mansion.

Although the Amazing Sword Formation in the mansion is difficult to compare with the Sword Formation of the Divine Sword Villa, it is better than nothing, especially when the strength is inferior to the enemy, at least the Amazing Sword Formation can give the Xie family a fight.

"A bold fanatic, who dares to openly commit murder under the nose of a poor monk!"

At this time.

Outside the mansion came a roar like a bell.

It turned out that the monk had made a move.

He wielded his staff like a madman and swung it at the masked black-clad man lurking around the mansion.

"This sword formation is kind of interesting!"

In the distance in an attic.

Xia Fan's eyes stared at the countless long swords flying in the sky above Guan Fu.

Amazing, right?

How exactly are these flying swords driven? Like the flying swords of the Sword Fairy, with precision guidance?

Well.

This should be done by perception to confirm the target.

However, the drive of this sword array seems to be quite tiring.

At least he noticed that Xie Linyuan's aura in the courtyard had begun to show signs of disorder, which showed that this sword array was very depleting to the arrayers.

Estimated half an hour later.

The qi in Xie Linyuan's body was about to run out.

"The Lord is here?!"

After the black-clothed people who infiltrated the mansion were wiped out with the sword array, the black-clothed people on the periphery fell one by one under the Zen staff of the monk Mingjian.

A slender middle-aged man quietly appeared in front of the vermilion gate of the Guanfu.

"Do you still have the strength to continue using the sword formation?"

The middle-aged man muttered to himself in a low voice.

He immediately stretched out his hand and pushed open the door, and walked into the mansion as if no one was around.

Woooo

With the blessing of the sword array, Xie Linyuan naturally sensed that an extraordinary aura had broken into the mansion.

But.

Facing a long sword that flew from the handle.

The middle-aged man waved them lightly.

"Lack of stamina. ”

He glanced indifferently at the palm that flowed out of a bloody hand.

"Thieves dare!"

The moment the middle-aged man stepped into the courtyard.

A powerful staff swung at him.

"Half-step Grandmaster, it's a pity. ”

But the middle-aged man quickly dodged the Zen staff, and directly slapped away the Mingjian monk who attacked him with a palm.

Bang –

In the palm of your hand.

Seeing that the monk directly smashed through several houses, there was no movement.

"It's time for it to end. ”

The middle-aged man withdrew his hand and walked step by step towards Xie Linyuan, who was on the verge of exhaustion of his internal qi in the courtyard.

"Amazing sword!"

As he got closer and closer, half-kneeling on the ground, panting, Xie Linyuan suddenly raised his head to the sky and roared.

An instant.

The long swords that were originally scattered around the mansion or were intact or broken flew into the sky in unison, and in an instant, they shot towards the middle-aged man.

The middle-aged man's face changed.

The whole person turned into an afterimage, and constantly flew out of the long sword that shot at him.

Wait until he stops.

The surrounding houses are in shambles.

"It's not bad, it's a pity that you're too weak, if you were replaced by that monk, maybe this sword would kill me. ”

The middle-aged man breathed a sigh of relief covered in blood, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but hook upward.

He looked at Xie Linyuan, who was slumped to the ground in front of him, panting desperately, and slowly raised his hand.

"Rest in peace, little nephew. ”

The words fell.

Without hesitation, the middle-aged man swung a hand knife that condensed his fierce true qi at Xie Linyuan.

"Is that how my uncle loves his nephew?"

A figure quietly appeared in front of Xie Linyuan, lightly shooting away the true qi that shot from him.
