The chaos in the small courtyard of Chaosi Lane gradually subsided.

Now it's the confrontation between Xue Wangwei and Lu Zhonghui.

The sun was a little dazzling, and even a little hot, and the restless heart gradually increased.

Ning Haoran bore the brunt of Xue Wangwu's side, pointing the way with his sword.

Xie Chunfeng was not far behind, and raised his sword to point at Ning Haoran.

Ye Jinyu and He Zhengrong also made moves, and they drew their swords out of their sheaths one after another.

Although the cultivation of the immortal disciples led by Xie Ning is relatively weak, they are superior in numbers, and they are not afraid of death to draw their swords and confront Ye Jinyu and others.

He Zhengrong glanced at Xie Ning and sneered: "My subordinates are defeated, I haven't seen you for a long time." ”

Xie Ning's face was a little ugly

"He Zhengrong, I'm not the same person I was when I asked last year!"

He Zhengrong pouted disappreciatively.

Xie Ning was annoyed and angry, and when he drew his sword and rushed forward, his aura climbed to the extreme in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, he crossed the distance, raised his sword and slammed it at He Zhengrong.

He Zhengrong was slightly surprised, "You actually broke through to the peak of the Three Realms?"

Xie Ning has been defeated by He Zhengrong's sword when he asked the question, and under the guidance of his brother Xie Chunfeng, his cultivation has improved by leaps and bounds in a few months, and he has been able to be on a par with He Zhengrong.

"I'm working hard to practice all the time, the purpose is to be ashamed, He Zhengrong, take it!"

The sword qi soared.

The wind is howling.

The smashed long sword was wrapped in a burst of breath, which made He Zhengrong's clothes hunting, and his face was faintly tingling, and he roared with some annoyance: "If I can win you once, I can win you a second time, and my subordinates will always be defeated, don't think about turning over!"

He Zhengrong was the youngest and most vigorous, after all, he was only fifteen years old, his thoughts were extremely simple, and his emotional outbursts were also very simple.

In this confrontation, He Zhengrong and Xie Ning fought first, and the rest of the people still didn't move, just guarded against each other.

Gu Shiyan came to Li Mengzhou's side with her sword and said softly: "It seems that the final result is still a fight." ”

Li Mengzhou stretched out his hand to wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, and smiled toothily, "That is the Lord of Lu Mountain, he is indeed a terrifying powerhouse, compared to it, Zhuge Dan, the monk outside the mountain, is insignificant." ”

The monks outside the mountain who forcibly crossed the threshold of the Five Realms by plundering the cultivator Qi Hai Lingyuan could not be compared with the real Great Monks of the Five Realms, in fact, it was also the cultivation realm of Lu Zhongyu who was very high, and he had already surpassed the lower realm.

The explanation of the realm of knowing the gods is to know the confusion and know the gods to touch the avenue, to know right and wrong, to know reason, to know the correct and profound understanding, and to be true, is complete.

That is a strong person who has already been able to contact the Dao Heavens, with an incomparably strong will, and can shatter mountains and rivers with every thought.

Xue Wangwu is already standing at the peak of the realm of knowing the gods, and Lu Zhongwei is a little weaker, and he is also a strong man in the upper realm of knowing the gods, and Zhuge Dan, who barely stepped into the lower realm of knowing the gods, is relying on the strong physique of the monks outside the mountain to be invincible in the lower realm of knowing the gods.

But if the great monk of the upper realm of knowing the gods wants to destroy the lower realm of knowing the gods, it is often just a thought.

Since the beginning of the Four Realms, every time you break through a small realm, it is similar to the distance of a large realm, and at the stage of knowing the gods of the Five Realms, it is even more difficult to break through the realm, so the difference in strength between the small realms is very terrifying.

Since crossing the threshold of the Five Realms, Shouyuan will also have a significant increase, although few live to be more than 200 years old, but the average can live to more than 100 years old, if you can break through the barriers of the Five Realms and enter the realm of great freedom, the life span will be extended again.

The so-called 'immortality' is actually a very illusory thing, but touching the will of the Dao Heaven, thereby increasing the longevity, has a great temptation, the cultivator tries his best to get close to the will of the Dao Heaven, trying to gain insight into the secret of 'immortality', and see the trajectory of fate, even if it is a very illusory thing, but as long as the threshold of the five realms is crossed, the longevity can be increased, which is enough to make the cultivator crazy.

It's a pity that there are very few cultivators who can cross the threshold of the Five Realms in their lifetime, and even if they can cross the past, if they can't break through to the peak of the Five Realms and break the barriers, what awaits them in the end is still death.

But as long as that thought exists, the practitioners still flock to it, trying in vain to climb higher mountains.

......

Looking at the picture in front of him, Li Mengzhou was actually a little annoyed in his heart.

His thoughts at that time were not so complicated, and he didn't mention the assassination of Zhu Zaitian because he recognized the wrong person, but when the scene of killing Zhu Zaitian was seen by Lu Changge, the first thing he thought of was that Lu Changge might use the power of the court to deal with him.

After all, the person he killed was the squire of the Xuan Zheng Division.

And if he wants to cover up his crimes, he has to act faster than Lu Changge, and attribute the crime of Zhu Zaitian's murder to Lu Changge, so as to clear himself of suspicion, which is not a problem in itself, but if he is a little weak, there will be a big problem.

Now even Xue Wangwu has been implicated, and the confrontation between the Palace Sword Courtyard and the Buluo Mountain Gate has far exceeded his imagination.

Although he has always been firm in the psychology of being prepared for danger in times of peace, perhaps in the very comfortable atmosphere of life in the capital, he gradually relaxed a lot subconsciously, and he became a little naïve when thinking about things unconsciously.

The environment may indeed change a person's habits, but Li Mengzhou is unwilling to change, his purpose of coming to the capital has not been completed, how can he gradually lose his caution and become so stupid.

Although he longed to nest on a wicker chair, drink a little wine, go out shopping, eat something delicious, and sleep until dawn, the reality would not allow it, but fortunately, he became an assassin and killed people in the prison of Xuanzheng Division, which made him regain the feeling of struggling to survive in the dark.

But the crisis that has been created must be resolved.

And he couldn't afford any more hesitation.

......

Lu Zhongwei's clothes were bulging, and the sword behind him was also trembling, and the powerful oppressive force made the sky above Chaosi Lane darken for a moment.

He looked at Xue Wangwu with an indifferent expression, and said, "Now are you going to start reasoning too?" I know how to take my own path, and it is not your turn to take care of it, if you don't want to fight me, then let me kill your apprentice." ”

Xue Wangwu poured a sip of wine to himself, and said with a smile: "Since you don't listen to persuasion, then I have nothing to say, but aren't you stupid to close the road? This is the capital, monks like you and me, if you want to fight, the academy is afraid that you will not like it, if you are punished to go up the mountain to move stones, I am afraid that you will disappear for a few more years." ”

In the past years, of course, Lu Zhonghui wanted to kill Xue Wangwu more than once, but Xue Wangwei had been staying in the palace sword courtyard, otherwise he would have appeared in the capital, and Lu Zhonghui would not have found any opportunity at all.

Once, he couldn't bear it anymore, and he was about to draw his sword from Xue Wangwu on the street, which naturally disturbed the dean of the academy, so he punished Zhonghui to move stones on the academy mountain, and at the same time paved many places of the academy with bluestone slabs while building the library building, and did not go down the mountain for three years.

The capital forbade cultivators to engage in a battle of great destruction, but it was not purely for fun, even if it was a strong person like Xue Wangwei and Lu Zhonghui, if it weren't for the chaos of monks outside the mountain like Zhuge Dan, it was a permitted battle, and they would definitely be punished.

Ordinary cultivators are under the control of the Xuan Zheng Division.

But the great monk who stepped into the Five Realms, once he broke the taboo, he would provoke the dean of the academy out, and the great monk of the Five Realms would move stones and move stones on the mountain for three years, what a terrible punishment it was.

The dean of Ewha Academy is a veritable powerhouse who stands at the pinnacle of Jiang Guo's cultivation world, and is also the patron saint of the entire Jiang Kingdom.

Children who make mistakes are naturally punished.

Lu Zhonghui's complexion suddenly became ugly.

Moving stones on the academy hill really had to be carried piece by piece, and he couldn't use mental power, and if it weren't for that, he wouldn't have been able to move it for three years.

And the stones on the academy hill are not small.

It is precisely because of this that he holds the annual Asking Question Conference, allowing new disciples to compete with each other, and the purpose is also to suppress the disciples of the Imperial Sword Academy.

It's a pity that although there are very few disciples in the Ligong Sword Academy, and the number of new disciples recruited every time the mountain gate is opened, it is not a big advantage if it does not fall into the mountain gate, and each has its own victory and defeat, and it faced a fiasco last year.

In fact, Lu Zhonghui also knew very well in his heart that if Xue Wangwu deliberately stayed in Chaosi Lane, this battle would not be able to be fought, and Lu Zhonghui would definitely not want to go to the academy mountain to move stones for three years.

It didn't work to get Xue Wangwu to take the initiative to draw his sword, and Lu Zhonghui didn't dare to really draw his sword, his eyes were on Li Mengzhou's body, and then he smiled coldly and said, "Just now my apprentice Xie Chunfeng seems to be about to draw his sword, it seems that there is an agreement between you." ”

Lu Zhonghui looked at Xie Chunfeng.

Xie Chunfeng nodded slightly, and briefly said the previous things.

Lu Zhonghui was silent for a moment, and immediately said to Xue Wangwei: "Then continue to fulfill the contract, as long as Li Mengzhou can take over Xie Chunfeng's sword and not die, I can not blame Lu Changge's past." ”

His voice accentuated the word 'immortal' slightly, making the pact clearer.

Because Li Mengzhou suddenly became the seventh gentleman of the Sword Academy, Xie Chunfeng had a little scruples in his heart, but Lu Zhongyu's intention was obviously to make this agreement a life-and-death battle.

In fact, the underlying meaning is already obvious.

If Xie Chunfeng really wanted to kill Li Mengzhou, one sword would be enough.

Xue Wangwu frowned deeply.

In his original thoughts, he knew that Xie Chunfeng would definitely not really kill Li Mengzhou, so he agreed to this agreement, but with Lu Zhongfeng's intervention, the power of Xie Chunfeng's sword became unpredictable.

Even if Ning Haoran was forced to take Xie Chunfeng's strongest sword, he would be injured, and with Li Mengzhou's strength, the result would inevitably be that there would be no bones.

"What?" Lu Zhonghui sneered: "As a sword cultivator, you don't have the courage to connect my apprentice with a sword?" Xue Forget worry, if you don't dare to gamble with your apprentice's life, then this victory or defeat will end between you and me, as long as our battle is not within the scope of the capital, Lord Dean can't control it." ”

Xue Wangwu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said: "It is difficult to kill me with your strength, if you want to decide life and death, the party of death will only be you, do you want to kill me, or do you simply want to seek death?"

In order to kill Xue Wangwei, Lu Zhonghui practiced hard, but he had not really stood on the same peak as Xue Wangwei, and the person who died when the two of them fought would definitely be Lu Zhonghui.

But even if Lu Zhongwei knows this very well, his belief that he wants to kill Xue Wangwei will not be reduced by half a point, it is hated to the bone marrow, he is always looking for various opportunities, in fact, it is also to prevent himself from forgetting that hatred, but he will never let himself fall into a situation of certain death.

Although Xue Wangwu's realm is higher than him, Xue Wangwu has indeed aged very quickly in the past ten years, even if his will is high, but his body has greatly weakened, even if Lu Zhongwei does not have the confidence to win, he always wants to try.

He could see that compared to back then, Xue Wangwu's aura had become very weak, although in a very short moment, he could still burst out with unimaginable power, even if Lu Zhongyu himself couldn't figure it out, but he would always have a feeling in his heart that Xue Wangwu had become weaker.

If you want to confirm this feeling, it is the best choice to fight directly with Xue Wangwei.

Whether to let Li Mengzhou come to send him to death, or Xue Wangwei to do it himself, it makes no difference to Lu Zhonghui, and he is the one who benefits in the end.

In the entire mountain gate, only Xie Chunfeng is valued by Lu Zhonghui, and the rest of the disciples are dispensable, if Lu Changge's death can allow him to take the opportunity to test Xue Wangwu's current strength, then he doesn't care even if more disciples die.

And even if Xue Wangwu is still sloppy, but Li Mengzhou, who has just become Mr. Seven, if he can be killed by Xie Chunfeng with a sword, then in a sense, it is Lu Zhonghui who is better than Xue Wangwei.

And he knew very well that with Xue Wang's temper, it was impossible to watch his apprentice go to death.

Protecting the calf itself is Xue Wangwu's most significant style, no matter how he beats and scolds his apprentice, but if he is bullied by outsiders, he absolutely disagrees.

Lu Zhonghui felt that he had already made up his mind, and Xue forgot to worry.

He said expressionlessly: "I haven't beaten you, how do I know that I will not be able to beat you, although the realm is a chasm that is difficult to cross, but at some point, the realm does not represent everything, you are already old." ”

Xue Wangwu just looks very old, but if it is in the secular world, the age of sixty is indeed very old, and in a few years, Xue Wangwu will really enter the twilight of his life, but Lu Zhongwei, who is only two years younger than him, still looks like he is still in a strong age, and the rejuvenation and aging of his body can also represent many things.

Youth is strong after all, even if Lu Zhonghui is not young, but compared to Xue Wangwei, he is indeed young.

Xue Wangwu listened to Lu Zhongyu's words and was silent.

No one wants to grow old, but how can people not grow old?

Cultivators yearn for 'immortality', but those who can really live forever have not been able to find even one person throughout the ages, and 'immortality' is originally an ethereal thing, perhaps as the years go by, practitioners just talk about pursuing 'immortality', and they don't believe it in their hearts.

But they are still moving forward, what is the real thought in their hearts?

Xue Wangwu never felt that he was really old, but now he suddenly found that he was indeed old.

He wanted to cultivate as much as possible at the moment of death, to cultivate a successor who could stand alone and lead the palace sword academy to a farther place, but just one person was not enough, now that there were seven gentlemen in the palace sword courtyard, he couldn't easily lose any of them.

But just when Xue Wangwu wanted to say something, Li Mengzhou silently pushed away Shen Jiyue and Jiang Zihua who were blocking the road, stood beside Xue Wangwu in their surprised eyes, looked at Lu Zhonghui and said expressionlessly: "I don't blame the Lord of the Mountain of Lu for suddenly killing me, since your meaning has been clearly expressed, then let's do it." ”

He looked at Xie Chunfeng and said, "Please continue to draw your sword." ”

Xie Chunfeng frowned slightly.

Lu Zhonghui also squinted his eyes and looked at Li Mengzhou carefully, and sneered: "It is worthy of the guy who dares to kill Lu Changge directly in the prison of Xuanzheng Division, I admire your courage, since you are looking for death by yourself, Chunfeng, then don't keep your hands." ”

Xie Chunfeng exhaled lightly and moved the long sword pointed at Ning Haoran in front of Li Mengzhou.

Xue Wangwu just glanced at Li Mengzhou and didn't speak.

The arrogance of sword cultivation cannot be softened, even if it is dissuaded.

Ning Haoran wanted to say something, but looking at Li Mengzhou's determined appearance and the teacher's silent contemplation, he didn't open his mouth after all.

But Jiang Zihua couldn't think so much, and said angrily: "Li Mengzhou, are you crazy?"

According to Lu Zhongfeng's meaning, it is obvious that he wants Xie Chunfeng to be a killer, and Xie Chunfeng may have been afraid of Li Mengzhou's identity as the seventh Mr. of the Palace Sword Academy, but since Lu Zhonghui expressed his attitude, Xie Chunfeng did not have any scruples, with Li Mengzhou's cultivation at the peak of the three realms, Mo said that he took Xie Chunfeng's sword, and the suppression of pure breath could make him unable to climb up.

It's no different from sending people to death.

Li Mengzhou didn't look back at Jiang Zi's painting, but said with a flat expression: "I provoked this matter, and if I implicate all of you, my mood will already be very bad, and I should have to solve the rest myself." ”

Although he didn't know what had happened between the teacher and Lu Zhonghui, it was obvious that the teacher's attitude towards Lu Zhonghui was a little unusual, he couldn't embarrass the teacher, and the trouble he caused could only be solved by himself, he was already indebted to the Ligong Sword Academy, and to the fourth senior brother who trusted him.

Even in the face of Xie Chunfeng, who was impossible to defeat, he had to draw his sword and fight.

It was also a remedy for his gradual slackening of will, which caused so much trouble.

To prevent this from happening in the future, we need to remember this lesson with physical pain.

The figure hiding in the darkness should never want to stand in the light, because he does not belong to the light himself, and only needs to watch the light silently.
