The only person in this world who can create such a yin and evil sword is Nie Zu, but Yan Huan has that sword in his hand, so Yan Huan must have seen Nie Zu. Nie Zu is hidden in the deer forest, and not everyone usually sees it, but why did he help Yan Huan make a sword?

Yan Huan is the son of the remnants of the Demon Sect, and Nie Zuxiu's swordsmanship is an evil way, the evil demon is a family, and it is not uncommon for the two to be in the same stream together.

Kongshu sat in the main hall and pondered, he didn't have the transcendent talent of Xuan Chenzi, nor was he favored by Uncle Mo Yu like Yan Huan. is an ordinary protégé, but he thinks that one day he can mix in the sect. The only shortcut that could be taken was to get the sword in Yan Huan's hand. Or if he brought someone to pay Nie Zu himself, maybe the master will look up to himself a few points.

Mu Xuanran took Nie Shizhi to Qingxin Hall, Mu Xuanran sat on the wooden chair in the hall, and politely stretched out his hand to signal Nie Shizhi to sit on the chair on the side, and Nie Shizhi sat obediently.

Mu Xuanran had a natural majesty in his body, which made Nie Shizhi feel a kind of admiration in his heart.

"Where are you from?" Mu Xuanran's voice was extremely gentle.

"I ...... I'm from ......" Nie Shizhi couldn't say anything, and the worries in his heart still existed.

"Tell the truth! Seeing that you are not a man, nor are you a member of my sect, I think Yan Huan and Xuan Chenzi met you when they went down the mountain, but the sword in Yan Huan's hand is extremely evil, at first glance, it will remind people of the desperate swordsman hidden in the deer forest, what is the relationship between you and that Nie Zu? Mu Xuanran asked directly.

Nie Shizhi had to admire Mu Xuanran's speculation, and Nie Shizhi fell silent.

Mu Xuanran looked at Nie Shizhi, who was silent, and continued: "It's okay, if you tell me, I will find a way to protect you, if you don't tell me, how can I save your life?" If I don't protect you, how can I explain to my two fools? ”

Nie Shizhi thought about it and felt that what Mu Xuanran said made sense, so he dispelled the worries in his heart.

She slowly spoke: "I am Nie Zu's sister - Nie Shizhi. ”

Mu Xuanran raised his eyes and looked at Nie Shizhi, and when he heard the answer he had already guessed, he bowed his head slightly, and said softly: "It's the same as I expected." Mu Xuanran continued with a calm expression: "Why did you come to the Firmament Sect this time? Did your brother ever know? ”

Nie Shizhi shook his head and said, "I was just curious about how your sect was derived, so I followed Yan Huan here and didn't have any misdirection at all." I didn't tell my brother when I came here, and I usually go out to play, so I don't think he knew I was here. ”

Mu Xuanran looked at the girl's sincere eyes and chose to believe her words, he didn't expect that the desperate swordsman who was called the evil way would have such an innocent sister.

Mu Xuanran knew it in his heart, he pursed his lips and raised an arc slightly, and said to Nie Shizhi: "You can't do it here, this world is too clear in black and white, people always don't want to be contaminated with a little dust, I hope you can go down the mountain as soon as possible, because I'm worried that you will be discovered by someone with a heart and cause unnecessary disputes in the rivers and lakes." ”

Nie Shizhi lowered her eyes, looked at the bluestone paved ground, blinked, she didn't expect that she still had to go back, she hadn't seen Xuan Chenzi a few more times, she said a little abruptly: "Okay, then thank you, I want to go back." I know that this world is always difficult to tolerate evil spirits, and since my brother has chosen a path of no return, I know how to deal with myself. ”

Mu Xuanran nodded and continued: "Then thank you girl for your understanding, but I still have something I want to ask." ”

Nie Shizhi asked, "Is there anything else the head wants to know?" ”

Mu Xuanran looked at Nie Shizhi and said, "In addition to seeing the scenery of the Ethereal Peak, who else did you come to the Firmament Sect this time for?" ”

Nie Shizhi had the figure that she had been thinking about day and night in her mind, but she knew that she couldn't say it, because she didn't know what that person thought of her.

There is no need to answer with certainty if you are not sure.

"No, not for anyone." Nie Shizhi replied against his will.

Mu Xuanran nodded again and said, "Okay, if you go back this time, I will send my apprentice to send you back to ensure that you are safe." ”

Nie Shizhi had doubts in her heart, looked at Mu Xuanran and asked, "Master of the Sect, you know that I am the sister of the Desperate Sword Master, Nie Zu, why don't you tie me up so that I can catch my brother?" If it had been someone else, he would have done it a long time ago. ”

Because Nie Shizhi had been treated like this before, she knew her role in those decent people, and if she threatened Nie Zu, it would definitely be a good bargaining chip.

Mu Xuanran shook his head slightly and replied with a smile: "Although you are Nie Zu's sister, have you ever done anything bad?" Are you just being treated maliciously just because of your identity? People in the world always lack a pair of wise eyes, and it is difficult to know what is really black and white when they are stained, and they will do everything in order to get rid of all relationships, but they do not know whether what they are doing is right or wrong. ”

Nie Shizhi understood what Mu Xuanran meant, and bowed to Mu Xuanran uprightly, this Mu Xuanran really deserved to be the head of the first decent sect of the Firmament Sect, and the words were as precious as jewels and jade.

"Thank you, Master." Nie Shizhi said while luggage.

Mu Xuanran looked at the delicate and lovely girl in front of him and said, "You're welcome, I'll let someone send you back tomorrow." ”

Nie Shizhi nodded, thanked him again, and said, "Thank you, master." ”

After Nie Shizhi left, Mu Xuanran thought about it, if Yan Huan sent Nie Shizhi back, with his friendship with Nie Zu, maybe he would stay in Lulin and never come back. It is most appropriate to let Xuanchenzi send Nie Shizhi back, Xuanchenzi was raised by Mu Xuanran since he was a child, his temperament is resolute, he understands right and wrong, and he will soon succeed as the head of the firmament faction, and he will definitely be able to complete this task well.

So he had already made up his mind to let Xuan Chenzi send Nie Shizhi back. And he has already divined the hexagram, and the hexagram does show that Xuan Chenzi is the next head of the firmament faction, and his fate is destined to have no cause and fate.

Mu Xuanran was thinking about it, Mo Yu came to Mu Xuanran's room dressed in black and light gauze, looked at Mu Xuanran's frowning brows, fanned Mu Xuanran with the black bone fan in his hand, and said with a smile: "Xuanran, what are you worried about?" You see that your successor has also been found, as long as he succeeds to the throne, you can abdicate and make way for Xian, and you can hide in the mountains and forests, how good is that! ”

Mu Xuanran raised his eyes and looked at Mo Yu with a smile on his face and said, "Yes, yes, what Senior Brother said is very true, this retreat is also with your wishes!" For so many years, you have always thought that I am too serious and rigid, so boring, and now I am going to abdicate, but I don't follow your wishes! ”

Mo Yu fanned his fan, looked up to the sky and laughed, "Not bad! I didn't want to be the master when I chose you to succeed you, but for the sake of the world, you carried a burden, you are not tired, I am still tired for you! ”

Mu Xuanran shook his head and said, "How can the people in the world be burdened!" ”

Mo Yu sneered, put away the fan and knocked it in his hand, "I don't know your true nature?" When you were a child, you grew up together, holding "Scattered People" every day, but you have to give up your nature for the world, have you had a happy life in the past 30 years? ”

Mu Xuanran's eyes deepened, and he said helplessly: "It's just my own choice!" It's not been a good time these years. ”

Mo Yu raised his mouth and smiled and said, "Yes, it's good, you're good, I'm good, everyone is good." ”

Although it is a word of agreement, it has a yin and yang weird tone, revealing a sense of irony.

Mo Yu sighed softly and said, "What am I complaining about here alone?" What else does it mean? Forget it, I've been with you for the past 30 years, and I'm not going to pursue it, anyway, you're going to abdicate, this time I can hide in the mountains and forests with you, be a pair of idle clouds and wild cranes, and the mountains and rivers are only for you. ”

When Mu Xuanran heard Mo Yu's words, his heart was a little clearer, and he nodded and said, "This time, I can really leave everything behind, and I can play chess as I like." ”

The light in Mo Yu's eyes lit up, and he nodded and said, "That's true, then the affairs of the common people in the world will be borne by those young people!" ”

Mu Xuanran raised the corners of his mouth and didn't speak, but he had some worries in his heart, but now he couldn't help thinking about it.

The night was deep, and the night on the mountain was always relatively cold, the dew was heavier, and the night was lit only by faint candlelight.

Mu Xuanran came to the confinement room with a night light, he pushed open the heavy stone door with deep internal force, and saw a faint figure in the room writing with a pen.

The man heard the sound of the door being pushed open, the pen in his hand stopped, and looked up at the movement at the door, until he saw Mu Xuanran's figure, he put down the pen in his hand, stood up and came to Mu Xuanran.

He bowed politely and said, "Master, you are here, and the apprentice apologizes for today's incident." ”

Mu Xuanran threw his hand behind him, exempted Xuanchenzi from the courtesy, and said, "You don't have to apologize, just regret it in your heart." ”

Xuan Chenzi stood up and looked at Mu Xuanran with a serious and upright face.

Mu Xuanran said slowly: "I came here today to let you do something. ”

Xuan Chenzi saluted again and said, "As long as the master says something, I will do it seriously!" ”

Mu Xuanran smiled slightly, helped Xuanchenzi and said, "You don't have to salute, you can send that woman down the mountain tomorrow!" ”

Xuan Chenzi's eyelashes flickered, and he moved his lips slightly and said, "Okay, I will definitely complete the task assigned by the master." ”

Mu Xuanran nodded, he had always been very relieved of Xuan Chenzi, but he never thought that Xuan Chenzi would do it with others for a woman, so Mu Xuanran still decided to inject Xuan Chenzi with a heart booster before he set off.

Mu Xuanran stared into Xuan Chenzi's eyes and said, "Disciple, after fifteen days, you will inherit the position of the head of the Firmament Sect, this is destined to be an incomparably heavy burden without worry, are you willing to bear it?" If you don't want to bear it, there's room to turn back now. ”

Xuan Chenzi shook his head and said resolutely: "Master, the apprentice is already ready to inherit the position of the head of the family. ”

Mu Xuanran continued: "This is destined to be a lonely and desperate road, are you still willing to go?" ”

Xuan Chenzi arched his hand again and said: "The apprentice is willing, even if he is alone, even if there is no way out." ”

Mu Xuanran nodded, very satisfied: "Okay, I hope the apprentice can keep what he said today in his heart." ”

"The disciples will take Master's words to heart." Xuan Chenzi said.
