Chapter 3: Father and Daughter

The peak of the Son of Heaven, inside the apse.

The fragrant tea held in a simple white porcelain pot was handed to a pair of palms.

The hands were neither big nor small, fair and smooth, with slender fingers and neatly trimmed nails.

If you only look at these hands, you will never think of the palms of a man, who is over 50 years old.

Xue Yiren raised his slightly thin eyes and looked at the beautiful woman who came up with tea.

This woman is twenty years old, dressed in a bean green palace dress, with cloudy beard and foggy sideburns, a delicate body, and enchanting red lips. When the eyes flicker, there is a kind of charm of smoke and flattery.

Moon worship sect leader An Biru, good at making Gu poison, once poisoned the seventeen sons of the Wudang faction between Yingying's shallow smiles, and his fame shocked the world. and Tie Chuanjia and Quan Guanqing, collectively known as the three people of moon worship.

Only Xue Yiren, the master of Tianzi Peak, can make her serve tea so respectfully.

Because, the Lunatic Worship Sect is just a branch of Tianzi Peak.

Xue Yiren poured a full pot of fragrant tea into the wooden basin and began to wash his hands.

He came from a poor background, and he didn't pay much attention to anything else, but these hands must be well maintained.

Xue Yiren fought a hundred battles in his life, killed countless people, and dyed his clothes with blood, and was called "Bloody Man in Blood" in his early years.

It's been a long time since I've killed someone, but maybe one day, I'll have to tear my opponent in two pieces with these hands.

Therefore, he washes his hands three times a day, four times a day.

First rub it with essential oils, then moisten it with milk, then wash it with fragrant tea, and finally wash it with snow water from the Tianshan Mountains.

Anbi respectfully poured the residual water from his hands.

When she came back, Xue Yiren's eyes swept lightly, and he said in a calm tone: "You should have read the letter sent by the envoy of the Divine Hall. ”

He has a ruddy complexion, a feminine temperament, and a high crown and black clothes. Although he is over fifty years old, he still has five or six points of youthful elegance on his face.

Compared to the hall master who is known for his madness, Xue Yiren is more like a decent scribe.

"I read word by word, and I didn't leave a word. An Biru said very seriously.

"So......" Xue Yiren slowly shook off the remaining droplets of water on his fingertips: "What kind of character is that Wu Feng who appeared mysteriously?"

"Brutal, reckless, reckless. An Biru completely put away her usual charm and sweetness, and her answer was extremely concise.

Xue Yiren's voice was understated: "Such a character must have an appetite for Su Mengzhen."

An Biru said: "The people in the Divine Hall think that this person is ten times more arrogant than Su Mengzhen, and his means of winning people's hearts are less than one-tenth of Su Mengzhen's. ”

"Biru seems to think that compared with the young lady, this son is just like the eagle bird is to the phoenix. ”

Xue Yiren said again: "Su Mengzhen claims to marry my daughter as the heir. However, if I don't agree, then Wu Feng won't be able to be the heir of the Divine Hall. ”

An Biru said slowly: "Su Mengzhen wants to be the head of the calculation. If Miss marries in the past, it will not only fulfill Su Mengzhen's wishes, but also ruin Miss Life's happiness. ”

Xue Yiren looked at her leisurely, dusted off his sleeves, and his eyes were burning like lightning: "Since this son is just a soldier on paper, wouldn't it be a lifeline for him to inherit the Divine Hall?"

An Biru was stunned for a moment.

A few days ago, there were strong rumors that Wu Feng's ostensible identity was the son of Wu Junhao, who had been missing for many years, but in fact he was Su Mengzhen's crazy illegitimate son. Su Mengzhen gave up Su Can and took this son, I am afraid that it is mostly for his own selfishness. ”

Xue Yiren's words are as light as water, but he has his own arrogance, he has always acted decisively and then moved, as frivolous as Su Mengzhen, he has always disagreed.

"Boss...... What do you mean......" An Biru's eyes widened, stunned.

"If Yan'er is willing, she will send her over, behead Su Mengzhen and Wu Feng for me, and take the Shentang with her hands. If she doesn't want to, she just stops. Xue Yiren understated it, but it had a decisive meaning.

Backyard.

A girl in purple hung her head and sat under a cold plum tree.

In the spring plum season, the plum shadows fell one after another, fell to the ground, and stained her dress, leaving her in a brilliant rain of flowers.

She didn't realize it, but just moved her hand lightly, as if she was embroidering. Although you can't see your face, just looking at her figure, it shows a particularly quiet and elegant appearance.

Xue Yiren walked in slowly.

"Yan'er......" Xue Yiren showed a look of pity and called softly.

"Good job. At this time, the girl was muttering softly to herself.

It turned out that she was not embroidering, but playing with a snow-white kitten.

Xue Yiren smiled dumbly: "You're tossing your brother's cat again." ”

The girl raised her head, and the whole courtyard became bright. The peerless Ronghua is like swaying out of a fairy dream.

She smiled sweetly: "Who makes it always catch." ”

As he spoke, he let go of the white cat, and then the white cat meowed aggrievedly, and suddenly jumped up, and slashed at the girl's face, but it did not hurt her snow-like skin in the slightest.

As soon as the girl's hand was released, a pair of scissors fell to the ground, and it turned out that the cat's paws had been cut clean by her.

This girl is Xue Yiren's beloved daughter Xue Xiyan, who is seventeen years old and is a famous beauty in the world.

Xue Yiren waved his hand, and the white cat rushed out of the yard.

Xue Yiren groaned slightly, and then said, "Yan'er, the matter of the Divine Hall sending someone to ask for a kiss." You should have heard that. ”

Xue Xiyan said lazily: "Yes." Su Mengzhen wants to pass the seat to a fool, and wants to use me to help consolidate the position of that fool. ”

Xue Yiren smiled: "After all, it may be his son." ”

He also said: "If Zifeng is not stable internally today, forming this family affair is actually beneficial to Tianzi Peak." However, to make Su Mengzhen happy, it is a loss-making business. ”

Xue Xiyan narrowed her eyes and said leisurely: "Then my daughter's task is to get it back with interest?"

Xue Yi said: "Su Mengzhen will never take a girl seriously. However, the Divine Hall and Tianzi Peak have been at war for so many years, and they have also formed an intertwined relationship with each other, and we have a complete network of relationships in the Divine Hall. Wu Feng became more and more powerful in the future, and with his arrogant temperament, he might mess things up and cause civil strife. If the time comes, you can secretly activate our network of contacts, and you can even wait for the opportunity to assassinate Su Mengzhen and Wu Feng, and cooperate with your father to win the temple in one fell swoop. ”

He sighed: "This task is not easy, it can be said to be very dangerous. Father will first explain to you that if you don't want to, the plan will be cancelled. ”

Xue Xiyan just lightly hooked the jade finger: "It's very interesting." ”

Xue Yiren asked, "Yan'er, did you agree?"

Xue Xiyan chuckled: "Daddy's meaning, how can my daughter not obey? Not to mention such an interesting thing......

Seeing this, Xue Yiren's eyes suddenly shot out, and he took out a treasure knife with a green shark skin sheath and a phoenix swallowing mouth, and handed it to Xue Xiyan.

"I heard that the last time you went out on a mission, the treasure knife was broken, and Daddy made a new one for you. ”

He paused word by word: "If Wu Feng is indeed an exaggerated boaster, when the time comes, he will use this knife to cut off his head." ”

His expression was solemn, and the implication was that if the plan failed and there was no escape, he would use this knife to kill himself and save his honor. Otherwise, the angry Su Mengzhen and Wu Feng might have done anything to retaliate.

Xue Xiyan nodded, but asked, "If Wu Feng is wise and foolish, and his talent is actually on top of his own boasting, what should his daughter do?"

She said leisurely, "Perhaps, this knife will stab my father in turn?"

Xue Yiren was stunned.

After a while, he burst out laughing very rarely, and the laughter ran straight into the air.

"That's good. ”

Xue Yiren raised his head, his eyes raised, staring at the sky, above the white clouds, it seemed to be the place where his soul was sustenance.

"The murderer is killed, and rightfully so. What if my son-in-law is a man who is better than me, and dies at his hands?"

"My father's dream since childhood was to end this troubled world, so he did not hesitate to turn into a poisonous snake and use all means, but when people reach middle age, their achievements are only to seize a Tianzi Peak. ”

"If there really is a young man who can let my daughter plunge a sharp knife into my chest, my father will be willing to use his own blood to pave a broad road to the pinnacle of humanity!"

He withdrew his gaze and gazed at his daughter with satisfaction, patting her gently on the shoulder.

"Since you have said so, the Father will only prepare a meager dowry for you. After all, if Wu Feng can survive from you, the entire Tianzi Peak is waiting for him to take it himself. ”
