Fan's Mansion is located in the west of Langya City, which belongs to the inner city, and since Fan Wuwei went to Beijing to take over the position of head of the Water Mirror Division, there will naturally be a place for him to settle in the capital.

In the eyes of smart people, the position of the head of the Water Mirror Division is not easy to sit, and Fan Wuwei also brings his family, which is equivalent to completely showing his weaknesses in front of everyone, and I don't know if he is a master of art who is bold, or suddenly got the grace of God, and he can't see the situation clearly.

The black carriage drove away from the Sword Courtyard and headed towards the nearest southern city.

Fan Wuwei sat in the carriage.

The Sword Academy exam has ended.

After the battle between Li Mengzhou and He Zhengrong, the next sword skill competition was a little dull, and it didn't take much time to select the eight people who entered the inner courtyard to practice.

This naturally includes Li Mengzhou, He Zhengrong, and Shen Jiyue.

Most of the people who watched the ceremony had already left, and Fan Wuwei was behind.

Because before leaving, he went to see Xue Wangwei once.

In the hut in the middle of the lake, Xue Wangwu poured himself a drink, which was very comfortable.

Dusk candlelight sprinkled the entire cottage.

Raindrops crashed down on the surface of the lake, crackling and rippling.

Watching the rain and drinking is a very pleasant thing.

Fan Wuwei crossed the bluestone pavement on the lake with an umbrella, patted the rainwater on his clothes for a moment in front of the hut, slowly put away the umbrella, placed it in front of the door, and then solemnly stepped into the hut.

Xue Wangwu was dressed in a green robe, half lying on the plush carpet in the house, half-squinting his eyes, and said indifferently: "The capital is not as good as before, more and more people have stepped into the threshold of the Five Realms, and even those younger generations of boys, many of them have faintly touched the gate of the Five Realms, which has also led to more and more dangers in Langya City, and there are many more things in the whole world." ”

Fan Wuwei knelt down in front of Xue Wangwei and said: "Back then, Dean Xue was only a disciple of the inner courtyard of the Sword Academy, and with the Frost Sword, he made a name for himself, and he could be said to be the leader of the younger generation. ”

"The prosperity of the Sword Academy was started by Dean Xue, and before that, the Sword Academy had been silent for too long. Dean Xue has also made countless enemies for this, and to this day, I am afraid that there are still a few people alive, and one day, they will come to seek revenge. ”

Fan Wuwei looked at Xue Wangwu, this slightly decadent old appearance seemed to be too different from the image he had in his memory, he frowned slightly, and said: "Not to mention those people outside the Jiang Kingdom, just in this capital, Lu Zhonghui, who does not fall from the mountain, thinks about suppressing the Sword Academy every day, and even annexing the Sword Academy. ”

"Although Lu Zhonghui is also a monk of the Five Realms, I think that with Dean Xue's cultivation, it is not difficult to kill him, so why let him go unchecked? ”

Xue Wuxian handed out the wine jug and gestured, and said with a chuckle: "Lu Zhonghui is not a person to worry about, he has no brains when he is young, and he is even more naïve when he is old, sword cultivation needs actual combat, and the Asking Dao Conference is also a good opportunity, since Lu Zhonghui is willing to do this, what reason do I have to refuse." ”

Fan Wuwei didn't pick up the wine jug, but grabbed a handful of peanuts and said while chewing: "Lu Zhongwei is hostile to you, after all, it's because of your confidante back then, I can't figure out what is going on with you now." You want to recreate the glory of the Sword Academy, I have no reason to say that what you did is wrong, but isn't it too unfair to her?" Xue Wangwu was silent for a moment.

He took a sip of wine and said, "There will always be some regrets in the world, and if there are no regrets, this life will be extremely boring." At least she's doing well, and I can see her at all times. After I find the successor of the Sword Academy, I will apologize. ”

Xue Wangwu glanced at Fan Wuwei seriously, and couldn't help but say, "You kid looked okay back then, why is he fat like this now? That face is getting uglier and uglier." ”

Fan Wuwei rolled his eyes and said, "That's because your old man doesn't know how to appreciate it, and my mother-in-law thinks I'm handsome." ”

Xue Wangwu said very solemnly: "The one in your family does have a problem with her eyes, so I said that she should go to the Medicine King Valley to have a look, otherwise it wouldn't be so serious now." ”

Although Fan Wuwei is not much younger than Xue Wangwei, he will not really regard Xue Wangwei as a peer, even if he does not have too many respectful words in his mouth, but in fact, he has always admired Xue Wangwei.

After all, Xue Wangwu has dedicated his whole life to the Sword Academy, which is something that few people can do.

As the only sword cultivation mountain gate in Jiang Kingdom, the Sword Courtyard of the Palace still exists today, and Xue Wangwu has contributed a lot, if it weren't for the fact that there was a Xue Wangwu in the Sword Courtyard back then, I am afraid that now, there is no figure of leaving the palace.

Naturally, there are no more of these teenagers and girls in the Sword Academy.

Fan Wuwei didn't want to pick up Xue Wang's witty words, but said very seriously: "There is one thing that I think is very strange. ”

Xue Wangwu took a sip of wine and asked, "What's strange?"

Fan Wuwei said: "After I took over the Water Mirror Division, I secretly investigated everyone under Qi Xiaoran, it is said that Qi Xiaoran was personally stabbed by Xu Hexian, but I never found Qi Xiaoran's body, as if it disappeared out of thin air." I suspect that Qi Xiaoran may not be dead. ”

Xue Wangwu narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and said: "Xu Hexian is ruthless, it is impossible for anyone to slip through the net in the Qi Mansion, let alone Qi Xiaoran himself." ”

There are some problems with this.

Fan Wuwei frowned and said, "Could it be that Xu Hexian didn't kill Qi Xiaoran at all?"

"What's his reason to do that?"

"I can't figure this out either, Xu Hexian and Qi Xiaoran don't have any potential relationship, and they are even quite a bit uneasy, after Qi Xiaoran lost power, Xu Hexian should be the most likely person to fall into the ground. If Qi Xiaoran is really dead, why can't he find the body?"

Xue Wangwu obviously didn't care much about this matter, he thought about it and felt a little headache, so he said casually: "It may be that Xu Hexian directly made Qi Xiaoran evaporate from the world, there are many such methods in the Xuanzheng Division, and Xu Hexian often does it, there is nothing unusual." ”

Fan Wuwei sighed and said, "It's just that there is something strange in my heart." ”

Xue Wangwu waved his hand and said, "You better go home to accompany your daughter-in-law, since you don't drink, what are you doing here with me, hurry up." ”

Fan Wuwei smiled and said, "No way, I will go home with my daughter-in-law and children, and you can only drink here, then I won't bother you." ”

He grabbed another handful of peanuts, got up and walked out of the hut, and the hearty laughter spread far away.

Xue Wangwu looked at the lake outside the house, and secretly had a headache: "This laughter is still as ugly as ever, should I sew his mouth up when I find an opportunity, or poison him dumb with poison?"

......

The black carriage descended the muddy mountain road, and the south gate was already close in sight.

Fan Wuwei lifted the curtain, there was a beam of light in the dark night, and not far from the city gate, there was a carriage parked, and a lantern was hung in front of the carriage, flickering candlelight.

Although he had never seen the carriage, he knew very well who was sitting in it.

Fan Wuwei hesitated for a moment, and finally stepped out of the carriage, and a cold voice immediately came from the opposite carriage: "Fan Sishou, who was originally a county leader in Jinzhou County, has become a big man in charge of the Water Mirror Division in a blink of an eye, and he is really a person who has ascended to heaven." ”

Fan Wuwei took a deep breath, once again showed his 'wonderful' laughter, and said: "Thanks to Your Majesty's favor, although I used to be just a minor official outside the establishment, but now that I am sitting in the position of the head of the Water Mirror Division, I must work for Your Majesty and the people of my Jiang Country, which is really what I should do." ”

The curtain was lifted, revealing Xu Hexian's face.

He frowned slightly, listening to the laughter that was several times worse than the call of a duck, resisting the urge to block his ears, looking at Fan Wuwei with a calm face, and said: "The person who came out of the small place is so naïve, do you think the position of the head of the Water Mirror Division is so easy to sit in?"

Fan Wuwei smiled: "I naturally can't compare to Xu Sitou's status in the court, and I need to take care of it more in the future." ”

Xu Hexian sneered and said, "It's easy to say that Zhaofu is good, but I heard that you got this position because you were recommended by Jiang Tingyu." You shouldn't know the relationship between me and Jiang Tingyu. ”

There are checks and balances between the Xuanzheng Division and the Heavenly Council, which in itself is a phenomenon that must exist in the court, and there are also inexplicable grievances between Xu Hexian and Jiang Tingyu.

Very few people really understand this matter, and just take it for granted that the relationship between two people cannot be gentle on its own.

But in reality, nature has a reason.

And the reason for this is simple.

It's just because Xu Hexian doesn't like Jiang and listens to the rain.

As for what Jiang Tingyu thinks of Xu Hexian, there is no accurate answer, because Jiang Tingyu has never had Xu Hexian in his eyes.

Although Fan Wuwei came to the capital for the first time, Xu Hexian was a person worth caring about in the court.

He knew early on that sooner or later he would face Xu Hexian.

At this time, it can't be said to be late, nor can it be said to be early, but it is definitely the time when Fan Wuwei doesn't want to see him.

Xu Hexian sat in the carriage, lifting the curtain with one hand, and his indifferent eyes exuded a cold light in the dark night.

Fan Wuwei's face suddenly tightened.

In Xu Hexian's eyes, he felt the threat of death, which was a substantial target, reaching the depths of his soul.

He had long known that Xu Hexian was the strongest in the Four Realms, and he was only one step away from entering the Five Realms, but when the other party really released hostility, he understood the gap between the two.

Although the peak of the Wuzhang Upper Realm and the Wuzhang Realm is only a small gap, there are countless gaps that need to be crossed, and even in the Wuzhang Peak Realm, the people who touch the threshold of the Five Realms are far stronger than the monks of the same realm.

Fan Wuwei suddenly couldn't laugh anymore.
