Chapter 175: Change
Not long after Wang Ting left, Dean Shang Ming, who got the news, immediately rushed over in person.
Unlike Xi Ruojian and the others, Shang Ming, as the dean of the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy and the Marquis of the Kingdom, knew far more about what was happening in the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy than others, and he clearly knew that that the young man, in less than a year after entering the school, had successfully broken through and been promoted to the legendary swordsman realm.
Moreover, not long after he left the Chosen Swordsman Academy, there was news from the outside world that the storm swordsman Sun Slow had gone to intercept and kill him.
Storm Swordsman Sun Slow, that is a well-known legend on the entire island, a peerless powerhouse who has comprehended the Wind Realm, even if it is Zhou Yan, the first swordsman of Taixuan, may not be his opponent, and in the entire Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, only the eight peak legendary swordsmen have the ability to slightly overwhelm him.
But the result?
He's dead!
Storm Swordsman Sun Slow is actually dead!
Dead at the hands of the royal court!
Although this news is still difficult to be completely sure of, it has made the name of the royal court resounding throughout the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy, and the true combat power of such a strong man is probably no longer under a demi-saint who has not comprehended the realm of the gods.
Now that he learned that Wang Ting had come to the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy, it was no wonder that Shang Ming would not hesitate to come in person, wanting to meet this legendary swordsman.
It's just that......
After learning that Wang Ting had left, he could only sigh helplessly.
......
A few days later, the figure of the royal court had already appeared in the royal capital.
This is also the last stop of his Taixuan Kingdom.
Walking here, he could vaguely understand why Emperor Jiang and other legendary swordsmen would rather stay in the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy than come to serve in the sixteen ASEAN countries. On the one hand, the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy has a good cultivation atmosphere, and when it encounters problems in cultivation, there are people who can study and discuss, and there is no mundane affairs, and on the other hand, it is aura.
Compared to the Academy of the Chosen Swordsman. The vitality of an ordinary realm is indeed very sparse, if it weren't for the fact that Wang Ting had some energy crystals in his hands. You can absorb the energy in the refining energy crystallization and condense the true qi, I'm afraid these days. His cultivation will not grow at all.
"Except for those legendary swordsmen who have no hope of reaching a higher realm, basically no one is willing to leave the Chosen Swordsman Academy. ”
Wang Ting muttered to himself.
As he spoke, the courtyard where Zhou Tianchi lived had already appeared in front of Wang Ting's eyes.
As soon as I got out of the carriage, before I had time to knock on the door, a woman at the gate of the courtyard had already walked out of it, it was none other than Zhou Tianchi's daughter, Zhou Yuxin.
Seeing Wang Ting, Zhou Yuxin was slightly stunned. After seeing Yin Xue behind Wang Ting, he immediately confirmed: "Wang Ting, is it you?"
Wang Ting nodded: "Is your father here?"
"Father, he happens to be at home, please come in." ”
Wang Ting responded and followed Zhou Yuxin. Walking to the courtyard and settling Wang Ting to sit down, she soon went to call Zhou Tianchi down.
Seeing Wang Ting, Zhou Tianchi was also very surprised: "Wang Ting, aren't you studying in the Divine Chosen Swordsman Academy? Could it be that you have received some training mission? So you have returned to the Taixuan Kingdom?"
Wang Ting shook his head, and there was no extra politeness. Straight to the point, he said: "I'm from the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsman Academy, I've heard a little about Mentor Lynch, I want to know, what happened, and, where is he now?"
"Brother Lynch......"
Speaking of this, Zhou Tianchi's expression darkened slightly.
After a long while, he shook his head: "Wang Ting, you should concentrate on cultivation now, you don't need to pay much attention to this matter, you must not delay your path to becoming a legendary swordsman." ”
"Say, or, are you going to let me find it myself?"
"This ......"
Zhou Tianchi groaned, and after a while, he nodded slightly: "I can't say anything about this matter, I'll take you to see Senior Brother Lynch, let's talk as we walk, Uncle Liu, prepare the carriage." ”
"Yes, sir. ”
The old man who looked like a butler replied respectfully.
Soon, the carriage was ready, and the carriage drove slowly to the outside of the royal capital.
"Now, you can tell me the details of what happened. ”
"This kind of bridge is a little less in the royal capital, but in other places, it is not uncommon. ”
Zhou Tianchi smiled bitterly and said the matter slowly: "The problem is not with Lynch, but with Lin Yun'er's child." ”
"Lin Yun'er?"
Wang Ting frowned slightly.
Not only him, but even Yin Xue, who was originally careless before, seemed to suddenly focus on her expression - despite her gaze, she was still constantly looking outside the carriage, as if she was paying attention to whether there was any danger.
"Yes, more than a year ago...... No, to be exact, it should be five days after you went to the Chosen Swordsman Academy, Yu Xin took Lin Yun'er's child and went out together, but Yu Xin left halfway through and let Lin Yun'er go back alone, so the accident happened. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Tianchi sighed slightly: "You should know that Lin Yun'er has always been by the side of Senior Brother Lin Qi, and she has never been out of the city where the Xuanzhong Senior Swordsman is located in her life, and she has not written down the road to the royal capital at all, plus she is young and simple-minded, so she was abducted and sold on the way to inquire about the road." ”
"Trafficked?"
Wang Ting was slightly stunned.
In his impression, Lin Yun'er is indeed a very simple girl, with the protection of Lynch's mentor, plus the students she comes into contact with, she is also a simple-minded student, she is completely ignorant of the sinister society, and it is completely possible to be targeted by some people with a heart to be trafficked.
"By the time we found her, it was three days later, in a high-class slave clubhouse. ”
Speaking of this, Zhou Tianchi's tone was faintly hesitant, he seemed to know the abandoned agreement between Lynch and Wang Ting.
"Go on. ”
"It's not that we took the initiative to find her, it's ...... Wan Jufeng informs us of the past when we discovered. Even though we had been frantically searching for clues about her for three days......"
In the midst of the slow narration and conversation, the carriage had already driven out of the royal capital, heading for a mountain range not far from the royal capital.
"The reason why we found her was a tragedy that shocked half of the royal capital, you can't imagine that scene, inferred from the scene at that time. It should be a scene that is officially verified after the auction of high-level slaves...... It's inspection...... But when we got there. What I saw, except for Yun'er, didn't see a living human being. The whole hall, except for blood, was all blood, and all kinds of minced meat, internal organs, and organs filled the walls, beams, floors, and windows of that hall......"
Speaking of this, Zhou Tianchi's tone sank slightly: "That scene made me feel like I had come to hell in person. ”
"It's all blood, minced meat?"
Zhou Tianchi nodded: "All of them, and later according to statistics, there should be a total of sixty-four people there, except for a few maids and slaves." There was an earl, four viscounts, thirteen barons, and the rest were all wealthy merchants with the title of lord. These people, all dead, seemed to have a force that exploded them from the inside out. ”
"Only Lin Yun'er is alive?"
"Alive, sort of alive, but. She was so frightened that she was so frightened that she was so terrified that she yelled at anyone who came near her, and even the most proficient interrogators couldn't learn from her what was going on. ”
"Delirious ......"
Wang Ting muttered to himself.
However, Yin Xue, who was extremely sensitive in spirit, could obviously feel a cold aura from him.
That's murderous!
"Who is the owner of that auction house?"
"It was a viscount who came out to atone for his crimes, but the real man behind it...... It is the Shen family, the Marquis of Shen Mingxin. ”
"Shen Mingxin?"
"Mentor Fang Qianhua has also traveled a lot for this matter, and he has also personally made a statement to His Majesty the King, but Shen Mingxin's power in our kingdom is too great, and in the end, he only forced him to hand over an innocuous viscount to confess, and now that a year has passed, this matter has long been over. ”
Wang Ting nodded and didn't say anything.
At this time, the carriage stopped.
Wang Ting glanced around, only to find that they had actually reached the mountain range some distance away from the king's capital.
"The only way to do that is to walk. ”
Zhou Tianchi said, got out of the carriage with Wang Ting, walked through the woods, and walked to the top of the mountain.
A slightly trimmed path can be vaguely seen in the woods, but because there are not many people walking, and a lot of weeds have grown, the road has become nonexistent, but these naturally can't stop Wang Ting and the others.
Yin Xue opened the way in front, and any branches and poles that extended were all smashed by her with a slightly smaller sword.
After walking about two kilometers, the front gradually became wider, and a two-story wooden house that seemed to have been built not long appeared in everyone's field of vision, and in front of the wooden house, Mentor Lynch was busy with something.
Lin Yun'er, who was regarded as his own daughter, had such a big thing, in the past year, it can be said that he was exhausted, his eyes were deeply sunken, many wrinkles appeared between his eyebrows, and the whole person looked much older.
As if hearing the human voice, Lynch finally looked over to this side, and when he saw Zhou Tianchi, there was a faint smile on his face, but when he saw the two of them, his expression was already full of bitterness.
"Senior brother. ”
"Mentor Lynch. ”
"Senior brother, Wang Ting, why are you here? ”
Although Lynch felt a little bitter in his heart, he still greeted him and whispered.
After speaking, he seemed to feel that it was a little strange for him to speak in such a low voice, so he hurriedly explained: "Yun'er, she is not only afraid of seeing people, but even when she hears people's voices, she sometimes trembles with fright, so she ......"
"I understand. ”
Wang Ting nodded: "Where is Senior Sister Yun'er now?"
"The second floor, the entire second floor I left to her...... But ......"
Lynch glanced at the room behind him where even the windows were sealed, and smiled bitterly: "Actually, it is enough for her to have one room." (To be continued)
