Pei Yuan had already prepared for the worst.

Even though he was recognized by the cultivation world as the successor of the Pei family, he was regarded by people as the most likely swordsman to become a saint today, and he was regarded as a unique cultivation genius on this continent.

But he was still not sure that he would defeat the nine-eyed fire python.

So before that, he sent Yue'er back to Pei's house, he clenched the long sword in his hand, and there was a rare hint of resoluteness in his eyes.

But the final result was so unexpected.

Because when he returned to the field, he only saw Xia Sheng alone.

The demon python with nine eyes was nowhere to be found, and the whereabouts of the spirit beast shaped like a giant egg were also unknown.

And Xia Sheng is still alive.

Although Xia Sheng looked a little embarrassed at the moment, his clothes were disheveled, and his face was covered with blood, he was still alive after all, and he was alive and well.

Pei Yuan came to Xia Sheng in a sprint, looked around vigilantly, and asked in a deep voice, "What about the demon beast?"

Xia Sheng didn't expect Pei Yuan to rush back so quickly, he was slightly stunned at first, and then he shook his head and sighed: "Let's go." ”

"Gone?" Pei Yuan looked at the huge pit not far in front of him, and everywhere he looked, it was full of scorched earth burns, as if he could still smell the faint fishy smell in the air.

"What the hell is going on?"

Xia Sheng was silent for a moment, looked up at the endless night sky, and said: "That demon python is called Jiuzhu, it is an old monster that has practiced in this world for more than two thousand years, just before you came, it had completed its last evolution and ascended to the Holy Throne. ”

Xia Sheng's tone was very calm, but when it fell on Pei Yuan's ears, it was like a thunderbolt from the sky.

The Holy Demon is born!

This is not only for the cultivation world, but also for the ordinary people of the Dajin Dynasty. It is undoubtedly a huge bad news, if this demon python is a disaster to the world, with ill intentions, who can be the enemy?

If this demon python takes refuge in the demon clan and provokes the demon clan to land on the Northern Expedition for the second time, the world will not be in chaos!

With this in mind. Pei Yuan's face became extremely solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "I must immediately let Taigong know about this matter." ”

The Taigong in Pei Yuan's mouth is naturally the cornerstone of the Pei family, one of the only two remaining saint-level powerhouses in the Dajin Dynasty, the Sword Saint, Pei Xu!

Xia Sheng heard the parting meaning under Pei Yuan's words, indeed, compared to the news of the birth of the holy demon. What is he a small king-level powerhouse?

It was only at this time that he found that there seemed to be a small figure missing from the comer, and he couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

"Where's Miss Yue'er?"

If it was placed at another time, Pei Yuan would definitely ridicule Xia Sheng's concern, and persuade him to join the Pei family, but now Pei Yuan is not in the mood, and just nodded lightly: "I'll send her back first." ”

Hear the words. Xia Sheng felt a little relieved at this time, and asked with a smile, "When are you going to leave?"

Pei Yuan looked at the dawn in front of him. said: "There is not much distance to go to Sunset Valley, I believe you are enough to protect yourself, and I will go back at dawn." ”

Pei Yuan's answer surprised Xia Sheng, because he originally thought that Pei Yuan would leave immediately, so he immediately smiled and said, "Oh, haven't you given up yet?"

This time, Pei Yuan followed Xia Sheng all the way from Luoyang, Kyoto. went to Jinling and crossed the Shuo River, just for one thing, that is, to persuade him to become his grandson-in-law and add another unborn genius to the Pei family.

In the meantime. Pei Yuan used a lot of tricks, such as several drug attempts, such as deliberately letting Yue'er stick to Xia Sheng, so that these two young people could cultivate and cultivate their feelings, and trying to impress Xia Sheng with the sincerity of escorting the whole process.

I have to say that as a respected powerhouse, in fact, Pei Yuan's posture is relatively low, of course, this has a lot to do with his own character, but the most important thing is that he let Xia Sheng see that in this world, not all cultivators are bullies.

made Xia Sheng see that the Pei family is not all unscrupulous people like Pei Yuanji.

This matter is very important to Xia Sheng, and it may not be important to the Pei family, but it is also very important to Pei Yuan.

In the few days that went south on this road, Xia Sheng saw Pei Yuan's true temperament, Pei Yuan's strength, and felt Pei Yuan's sincerity, but at the same time, Pei Yuan also discovered that Xia Sheng was indeed not a vain person, he saw Xia Sheng's unparalleled talent, saw Xia Sheng's huge potential, and also saw Xia Sheng's future that would surely shine.

Therefore, in this last night, Pei Yuan hopes to try one last time.

But this time, he switched tactics.

Faced with the teasing meaning in Xia Sheng's eyes, Pei Yuan did not confront him as he did in the past, but asked solemnly: "Do you want to learn swords from me?"

The same meaning, in the first meeting between Pei Yuan and Xia Sheng, he had already said it, but that time, he said that if Xia Sheng was willing to join the Pei family, he was willing to give Xia Sheng the Chongming Sword, which ranked seventh on the Divine Soldier List, as a dowry.

Sword and swordsmanship have an equally important status in the hearts of kendo practitioners, but now Pei Yuan has a completely different meaning than before.

In all the past time, he was bent on letting Xia Sheng join the Pei family, marry Yue'er, and become his grandson-in-law.

But this time, he hopes to take Xia Sheng as an apprentice.

Xia Sheng was stunned for a moment.

Because he didn't expect Pei Yuan to make such a plan.

In fact, in the world of cultivators, there is a very deep-rooted concept of the family, Pei Yuan's sword, which is naturally the sword of the Pei family, logically speaking, must not be passed on, even if Xia Sheng really joins the Pei family in the future, Pei Yuan should only be able to pass on his most powerful swordsmanship to Xia Sheng's descendants, that is, his and Yue'er's children.

And it can't be passed on to Xia Sheng.

Everyone knows that Xia Sheng was born in the Spring and Autumn Academy, but it is a little strange that no one has ever known who Xia Sheng is taught by, and now, Pei Yuan hopes to become Xia Sheng's teacher.

It stands to reason that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Xia Sheng, although he is no stranger to kendo in the life of the previous eight lives, for example, when he incarnated as Emperor Jun 10,000 years ago, he used a sword, but that was 10,000 years ago, and today, compared to the first wealthy family recognized by the Dajin Dynasty as the first master of kendo, Xia Sheng's views on kendo must be inferior.

He was able to show Kang Wuwei the Qingying Sword Intent and teach him to comprehend the essence of the Great Wilderness Sword, because Kang Wuwei was only a Sword Emperor at that time.

He was able to comprehend the Haoran swordsmanship and learn many swordsmanship techniques such as the Water Pattern Sword and the Yuehua Sword because the artistic conception of these swordsmanship had not yet reached the level of the Holy Rank, because even an emperor as majestic and strategic as Emperor Gaozong had failed to achieve the Holy Rank.

Sanctification, where is it so simple?

Even if Xia Sheng had already ascended to a heaven and earth higher than the Holy Rank and seen a wider scenery than the Holy Rank, at that time, he did not use a sword.

When he became the number one powerhouse under the starry sky, there was not even such a thing as a holy order.

Therefore, worshipping under Pei Yuan's sect is undoubtedly the most direct shortcut for Xia Sheng, if he wants to go further on the path of kendo cultivation.

It stands to reason that Xia Sheng has no reason to refuse.

After all, Pei Yuan did not ask him to join the Pei family this time.

If it were an ordinary person, I am afraid that I would have been flattered and grateful to Dade.

But even at this moment, Pei Yuan still didn't have much confidence that he would be able to accept this talented disciple, because he already knew very well that Xia Sheng was not an ordinary person.
