And it sounds like there's some truth to that.

As a visitor, decency is naturally a very important thing, and casual mountaineering itself is a very rude place, so Ning Haoran is powerless to refute it.

He thought back to those junior brothers and sisters in the Sword Academy, and then looked at the girl in front of him, and suddenly felt that in terms of momentum alone, the Sword Academy was far inferior to the Sword Pavilion, not to mention that the Sword Pavilion was the first sword cultivator in the world, it was not unreasonable.

Xu Beihan saw Ning Haoran's embarrassment, this may indeed not be a trivial matter in other sects, if he encounters a place with very strict etiquette, he can't really drive people down the mountain.

But the Sword Pavilion didn't care much about this kind of thing, Xu Beihan didn't have any ideas, if someone wanted to provoke the majesty of the Sword Pavilion, he would kill it all directly with one person and one sword.

He rubbed the girl's head and said, "The Sword Pavilion and the Sword Academy are originally in the same vein, and besides, they are guests from afar, so don't worry about this." ”

Ning Haoran breathed a sigh of relief.

He was in the Jiang Country Sword Academy, maybe he was in awe of those juniors and sisters, but after all, the Sword Pavilion was high, and there were too many strong sword cultivators here, although Ning Haoran was not afraid, he was not willing to grudge with the Sword Pavilion for some reason.

The girl obviously didn't intend to change the topic so easily, her bright eyes rolled slightly, and she said with a smile: "You come to worship the mountain, you come from thousands of miles away, you won't be empty-handed, there are some interesting things, let this girl appreciate and appreciate it for you." ”

Ning Haoran said with a wry smile: "Jiang Guo is too far away from the Western Jin Dynasty, and he has spent a lot of money along the way, and now he really doesn't have anything to do with it. ”

The girl looked at Ning Haoran with dissatisfaction, and said: "I heard that the Sword Courtyard of the Imperial Palace is the only sword cultivation mountain gate in Jiang Guo, why are you so stingy? If you can't get something, it's better to fight with me, I also want to see how strong Jiang Guo's sword cultivation is." ”

Ning Haoran looked at the girl with a straight face, for this kind of request, he had no reason to refuse, this time he came to the Sword Pavilion of the Western Jin Dynasty, it was really a request, he had tried his best to put his posture very low, he could not care about anything, but this kind of thing fighting, especially fighting with the little monster in the Sword Pavilion, Ning Haoran couldn't ask for it.

He had heard early on that there was a girl with a clear sword heart in the Sword Pavilion, and her cultivation was very fast, and she had hardly encountered a pass below the four realms, but what the truth was, whether there was water in her cultivation or not, she could only know if she had fought it herself.

Xu Beihan stood quietly on the shore of Tianjing Lake, he didn't react to the girl's request this time, Jiang Guoli's sword cultivation, he had heard the most about the dean of the Sword Academy, Xue Wangwu, followed by Ouyang Shengxue, but what kind of strength did the other gentlemen in the Sword Academy have, he was also very curious.

He couldn't help but think of the girl back then, on the way down the mountain to practice, he happened to meet her, and he also experienced some things together, and fought many cultivation sects, and that girl was a disciple in Jiang Guojian Academy.

It is said that she is now the third Mr. in the Sword Academy, and Ning Haoran is the fourth in the Sword Academy, only below Mr. Three.

Xu Beihan only cared about Xue Wangwu and the three gentlemen in the Sword Academy, even Ouyang Shengxue He didn't pay too much attention to it, this time a disciple of the Sword Academy appeared in the Sword Pavilion, and he was the junior brother of Mr. Three, so he became a little interested.

Ning Haoran glanced at Xu Beihan hesitantly, he was also thinking about what the third senior sister had said to him before leaving Jiang Guo, although he didn't want to do this, he still looked at Xu Beihan very solemnly, and said: "Senior Brother Xu has some relationship with my third senior sister, although I don't know the details inside, but the third senior sister entrusted me to go to the Sword Pavilion to see Senior Brother Xu, and help her convey a word on her behalf." ”

Xu Beihan smiled and said, "Please speak." ”

Ning Haoran took a deep breath and said with a serious face: "The surname Xu is an idiot, he doesn't know anything but playing with a sword, and he doesn't know that his brain is so long, his face is strangely good-looking, and his brain is a mess, and there may be no more idiot than the one surnamed Xu in the world." Xu Beihan: "......"

Girl: "???"

Ning Haoran explained very seriously: "This is the original words of the third senior sister, and it does not represent me." ”

He could clearly see Xu Beihan's face darkening in an instant, in fact, when he first heard the third senior sister say this, Ning Haoran was also puzzled.

In his cognition, the third senior sister has always been a very gentle person, except for writing and practicing, she basically has no emotions, and there is no expression on her face, but when it comes to Xu Beihan, the third senior sister is like a different person.

The image will become more vivid and intimate.

Xu Beihan's body stiffened for a long time, let out a long breath, and said lightly: "When I go back, please tell her that I am not an idiot, and at the same time, thank her for thinking that I am very good-looking." ”

The girl looked at her senior brother with strange eyes, and muttered to herself: "I didn't expect the senior brother to be quite narcissistic." ”

After completing the task assigned by the third senior sister, Ning Haoran also seemed to have become a lot easier, nodded slightly, agreed to Xu Beihan, then looked at the girl, and said sincerely: "Sorry for the delay, now we can start." ”

The girl quickly forgot what had just happened, and said excitedly: "I haven't cultivated my own natal sword yet, so for the sake of fairness, you can't use the natal sword." ”

Ning Haoran was very surprised, he could clearly perceive that the girl's cultivation had reached the four realms, and the sword cultivator would be able to cultivate the natal sword when she entered the second realm, and it was also in the third realm at the latest, it was difficult for him to imagine that there was a sword cultivator who had entered the four realms, but he didn't even have a natal sword.

The girl's face is fleshy, and her figure is not very tall, but she is very well developed, according to Ning Haoran's observation, it is found that this girl is at most Li Mengzhou's age.

At the age of sixteen or seventeen, he has already entered the four realms, and it is extremely rare to look at the monks in the world.

What's more, the path of sword cultivation itself is more difficult to follow than that of the monks of the three sects, and the appearance of such a little monster in sword cultivation can definitely be regarded as a blessing for sword cultivation.

It is also a great luck of sword cultivation.

On the way to the Western Jin Dynasty, Ning Haoran had also heard about what happened in the capital of Jiang Guo, and some small things naturally could not be spread so quickly, but Ning Haoran still knew a thing or two about the big things, and naturally he also heard about Li Mengzhou's breakthrough into the realm of Chengyi.

However, putting Li Mengzhou and the girl of the Sword Pavilion together, Li Mengzhou's cultivation speed was like a child just learning to walk, and there was no comparison at all.

Of course, this is only a superficial understanding, after all, the girl began to contact the cultivation at a very young age, and Li Mengzhou only succeeded in visualizing for the first time at the age of seventeen, if you really only look at the time spent on the cultivation, in fact, Li Mengzhou will not be weaker than the girl.

Ning Haoran naturally didn't know that Li Mengzhou had entered the Chengyi Upper Realm in a short period of time, but objectively speaking, Li Mengzhou's cultivation qualifications were indeed no match for this Sword Pavilion girl.

But it is also difficult for a sword cultivator to be able to compare with Li Mengzhou today in terms of cultivation speed.

Ning Haoran looked at the girl, a breath of qi gushed out of the sea of qi, and there was an extra sword in his right hand.

He slapped the sword with its scabbard into the ground and said, "This sword is called Ququan, and it is my natal sword. ”

The girl looked left and right, patted Xu Beihan, the latter reached out, and a branch was broken on a willow tree by the lake, the girl happily took the willow branch, and said: "This is a willow branch, temporarily replacing my natal sword." ”

Ning Haoran smiled slightly, also broke a willow branch, and saluted with a sword: "Girl, please." ”

The girl's temperament is strange, but it is not annoying, and the process of comparing swords is also very simple, the willow branch is gently thrown out, pointing to the surface of Tianjing Lake, the lake is boiling, rippling, and the beads and water droplets are frozen in mid-air, and they are unceremoniously thrown towards Ning Haoran.

Thousands of water droplets swarmed in, enveloping Ning Haoran in an instant.

Ning Haoran was not careless, the willow branch in his hand became straight with the slight shock of his wrist, as if it was really a sharp sword out of the sheath, and the sword on it swirled, breaking through the thousands of water droplets in front of him, and the contained qi burst out, and the water droplets in mid-air were all shattered, turning into a thick white mist.

The white mist surrounded the shore of Tianjing Lake, and the broken water droplets drew clear water lines in the mist, instantly soaking a large slate of stone under his feet.

In the next moment, the hard bluestone pavement was all cracked inch by inch, and countless cracks spread like spider webs.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ning Haoran had already approached the girl.

The girl only frowned slightly, and soon smiled, her figure fluttered, and the willow branch slammed into Ning Haoran's chest in an extremely strange way, as if he heard the sound of the sternum breaking, and the severe pain made his face pale.

However, at the same time, Ning Haoran stretched out his hand and made a move, and the huge qi machine pulled the lake water in Tianjing Lake, converging into a giant sword that went straight into the sky, fiercely slashing at the girl who was rapidly retreating.

The girl exclaimed.

The giant sword formed by the lake water slashed at her head.

In that short moment, the qi suddenly dissipated, and the giant sword turned into a stream of water and poured water on the girl's body.

Despite this, the impact of a large amount of lake water still made the girl feel the pain, and she took a step back and fell to the ground.

Ning Haoran covered his chest that was whipped by the girl's willow branch, turned around from the short suffocation, looked at the girl with a little surprise, and couldn't help but say: "The girl is worthy of being a kendo wizard, she was born with a clear sword heart, if it weren't for my faster reaction and more experience, I wouldn't have been able to defeat under your willow branch sword today." ”

As a result, it seemed that the girl was more embarrassed, but in fact she did not suffer any damage, although it was Ning Haoran who finally retracted her strength, but after all, it was the girl who hit Ning Haoran with a willow branch as a sword, to be precise, the two of them were tied.

This is not an unacceptable thing for Ning Haoran, but he is still a little uncomfortable in his heart, no matter how demonic this girl is on her head, but she is only a teenage girl, if it weren't for him and not defeated, I'm afraid the resentment will be even more serious.

If it were Ning Haoran's previous character, he might even kill the girl with a sword.

But in the Palace Sword Academy, self-cultivation and being guarded by Xue Wangwei, Ning Haoran's personality has gradually become much more stable.

Xu Beihan came to the girl's side, put his palm on the top of her head, a white vapor steamed, and the wet clothes quickly became dry.

He stared at the girl and said, "Ning Haoran is the fourth gentleman in the Sword Courtyard of the Imperial Palace, and there are many people who are equal to him in Jiang Guodu, and there are even many people who are stronger than him. ”

"It's already good that you can fight with Ning Haoran to this extent, but if you want to challenge all the geniuses in Jiang Guodu, your current cultivation is far from enough, so don't be lazy lately. Even if you have a clear sword heart, if you don't practice hard, you will be wasting such a talent. ”

The girl was not hit, she stood up casually, patted her body, and said: "It's just that the fourth place in the sword academy, so-so, in a few years, I will be the number one sword cultivator in the world." ”

Xu Beihan admired the girl's confidence and looked at her with a smile.

Ning Haoran complained a little about Xu Beihan's words, but this is also the truth, many of his peers in Jiang Guodu are indeed stronger than him, and he is not in the forefront of the Sword Academy, although he hopes to have a fight with Xu Beihan, but he has not forgotten his purpose of coming to the Western Jin Dynasty.

"I want to meet Wang Jianxian. ”
