In the cold winter, the north wind is howling. On the main road on the southern border of Tianluo Kingdom, a young man of twelve or thirteen years old in ragged clothes walked alone.

In such weather, even if you are wearing thick cotton clothes, I am afraid that you will be blown through by the cold wind in an instant, which makes you shiver.

But the young man didn't seem to feel the cold wind behind him lift his torn clothes and sweep over his skin. The waist is straightened, and he walks slowly and calmly.

This kind of severe cold is naturally nothing to the spirit master. But a tattered shirt will inevitably attract attention.

"I had to find a place to buy a new set of clothes. Feeling the surprised glances of passers-by, the young man couldn't help but think to himself.

The young man was Xie Chen, after he got out of the deep pool, he went all the way south in the mountains, until he came to the border of Tianluo Country at this moment, and then turned to the official road.

The reason why he went in this direction was because according to Jian Jiu's induction, the material for repairing the blade of the Dragon Slayer Sword was in the south. Now that the damage to the back of the knife has been suppressed temporarily, after consulting with Jian Jiu, Xie Chen decided to repair the blade first.

After this period of recovery, coupled with the refining of the soul by the Spirit Bead. Now Xie Chen's cultivation has directly broken through the second-level spirit master and reached the peak of the third-level spirit master.

"Get out of the way! Fuck, get out of the way!"

A loud shout, and the sound of "pop, pop!" came from behind him, and not long after, there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves.

On top of a dozen sturdy horses, knights in black leather robes wore scimitars at their waists, brandished their whips in their hands, and galloped freely on the official road, startling pedestrians on the road to avoid it.

A moment later, these people swept past Xie Chen like a violent wind, rushing towards the south.

"See, it's the Iron Battalion! It's so urgent, it's definitely going to catch the fugitives again......

"That's right, I heard that there was a big incident in Tianluo City last month, it seems that several families have been ransacked, not only the Iron Blood Camp, but now the masters of the four major families have all been dispatched and are searching everywhere!"

The discussions of passers-by reached Xie Chen's ears, and Xie Chen couldn't help but feel a move in his heart. Several families have been ransacked? Could it be that the Western Demon Domain actually attacked the four major families at the same time? What a big deal!

It's just that most of the comments of passers-by are just hearsay. Xie Chen listened all the way, but he never got any valuable information.

Nankou Town, a border town in the southern part of Tianluo Kingdom. Because it is located at the junction of the six southern countries and the seven northern countries, there are many businesses in the past, and it is extremely prosperous.

Tianfu Building, the largest restaurant in Nankou Town, is now approaching the end of the year, and the business is booming.

Looking up at the gold signboard of the "North and South Cuisine", Xie Chen couldn't help but touch his stomach. Naturally, he couldn't eat in the deep pool, and he had been walking in the mountains for half a month, occasionally catching a pheasant and hare to satisfy his hunger. Suddenly smelling the aroma of wine and food, it is inevitable that I will be a little hungry.

"Go and go, Xiao told Hanako to get away, I didn't see that the uncle was ...... Hey, little master, please come inside, please ...... inside."

The face of Xiao Er at the door was like a trick, and after seeing Xie Chen casually take out a silver ticket of one thousand taels, he immediately smiled and nodded.

Smelling the aroma of wine and food, where did Xie Chen still have the leisure to pay attention to a philistine? Immediately walked into the restaurant, and said as he walked, "A private room, a table of good wine and food, hurry! Well, go out and buy me a set of clothes, a horse, and ...... For the rest, you'll be rewarded. ”

"Reward, reward me?! Eh! Okay! Little ancestor, please upstairs! I want you to be satisfied! Do you want to find two more fans to help ...... fun?"

"No, I don't like to be disturbed, go ahead and do it. ”

Xie Chen then threw away the silver ticket and went all the way up to the third-floor private room. Just as he had just entered Nankou Town, he and Jian Jiu felt several powerful auras almost at the same time, sweeping over them.

Obviously, this seemingly crowded and lively Nankou Town has been closely monitored!

At this time, Xie Chen didn't want to cause trouble, let alone find trouble, so as soon as he entered Tianfu Tower, he ordered everything and hid in the private room alone.

"Jian Jiu, do you feel it?" Xie Chen sat by the window, as if he was looking at the scenery outside the window, but Shen Nian was talking to Jian Jiu.

Jian Jiu nodded: "There are a total of nine breaths at the entrance of the town, two spirit masters, three great spirit masters, and the other four are spirit masters." There are at least a dozen or more spirit masters patrolling the town. ”

"Is it to catch those old demons?" After finishing speaking, Xie Chen shook his head and smiled, and he first denied this idea: "Although this battle is not small, it is not enough for the strong people of the Spirit Sect to take a look, let alone arrest it." ”

But if it weren't for the arrest of those old demons, why would they have made such a big move? Could it be that their own affairs have been exposed?!

Jian Jiu shook his head and smiled, and said, "There should be another reason here, it doesn't have much to do with you." Besides, with me, the spiritual master of the Spirit Sect who has cultivated below him will not want to find out your bottom line. ”

Xie Chen nodded slightly, and at this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door.

It was the shopkeeper who came in, and the so-called wealth was moving. The things Xie Chen asked for added up to a few hundred taels, and the shopkeeper was rewarded very richly, and his natural actions were extremely quick.

In just a few moments, everything had been done, a whole bag of brand-new clothes and utensils, horses were tied downstairs, and the table was full of wine and food.

"Man, let me ask you something. Seeing that everything was ready, Xie Chen asked unhurriedly.

"You can ask yourself, and the little ones must know everything. ”

Xie Chen nodded, looked out the window, and said, "I saw a large number of officers and soldiers passing by outside the town, and there are also men and horses from the Iron Blood Battalion, has something happened recently?"

"Why, you don't know, officer?"

"Well, I've just come from out of town, and some things are still unclear. ”

"Hehe, then you're asking me the right person. It's all too clear to be small. Just a few days ago, several military masters of the Iron Blood Battalion had just eaten here in the small one, and they were serving the small ones, and they ......"

"Getting to the point. Xie Chen frowned and interrupted the shopkeeper's words.

This young man is really difficult to serve...... The shopkeeper muttered in his heart, and nodded with a smile on his face: "Yes, yes...... Anyway, it's been about 20 days. Since several big families in Tianluo City were attacked, we have begun martial law. But at that time, it wasn't so serious, only in the last ten days......"

The shopkeeper was still verbose, but Xie Chen also understood the general meaning.

It turned out that just ten days ago, news came from the Iron Blood Battalion. The younger brother of the Four Holy Lands stepped out of the forbidden land and entered the world to practice! It is said that this cultivation was also a secret contest between the four holy lands. In the end, the best children of the Four Holy Lands will be determined and become the leaders of the next generation of the Four Holy Lands.

And because of this matter, Mr. Tianji, the first god of the six southern countries, also deliberately divined a hexagram and came up with an astonishing result, "The demon sword is in trouble, and the earth is turned upside down!"

The countries of the Central Plains, both north and south, all heard the wind and moved, and almost all the plants and trees were soldiers. The border fortress is even more like a great enemy, not only the garrison has increased, but the spirit masters of the major families are also deployed everywhere. Under the calm and prosperity on the surface, there is a rumor of wind.

Waved away the shopkeeper, Xie Chen talked to Jian Jiu while eating vegetables.

"Is there a connection between the children of the Four Holy Lands and the Demon Sword Troubled Times?"

"Of course there is a connection!" said Jian Jiu's tone in the dantian.

"Oh, why do you say that?" Xie Chen raised his eyebrows.

Jian Jiu said: "Although the old man doesn't know about the Four Holy Lands, he can vaguely guess the origin of the people in the Four Holy Lands. Between them and the countries of the Central Plains, if not endlessly, I am afraid that they are completely opposed. This time, among the Four Holy Lands, the Western Demons first attacked the major families, and then the children of the Four Holy Lands brazenly entered the world. Next, I am afraid that there will be even greater actions, and it is not an exaggeration to say that the mountains and rivers are broken and the world is turned upside down. ”

"You mean, the entry of the children of the Four Holy Lands into the WTO is just a prelude?"

Jian Jiu nodded and said, "Well, I estimate that when the West Demon attacked the major families to seize the treasure, it was not so much to celebrate the birthday of their holy daughter, but to prepare for the entry of their children into the WTO this time." Although those treasures looked precious, they had no effect on those Spirit Sect-level old demons. The treasure is just to strengthen the strength of his future generations. ”

"Aren't the old demons of these four holy lands afraid that their descendants will be killed after they enter the world?"

"Killing?" Jian Jiu smiled, "I'm afraid what they want is to let the younger generations train in a sinister environment! What's the point of dying a few children? And then again, although these kingdom families have been clamoring to be at odds with the Four Holy Lands. But do you think they really dare to easily touch the direct descendants of the Four Holy Lands?"

"Don't dare? Why?"

"The reason is very simple, just think back to the attitude of your Xie family ancestor towards that Earth Demon Sect Master at that time. Jian Jiu said lightly: "If my analysis is correct, the main enemy of the Four Holy Lands is the Outer Heavenly Palace that defeated them in the first place. And behind these kingdoms are the shadows of the Heavenly Palace, which is why they are opposed to the Four Holy Lands.

However, if the Outer Heavenly Palace is not in the capital today, these kingdoms and families naturally do not want to really tear their faces with the powerful Four Holy Lands. Now this sabre-rattling look, there are more elements to make a look. If you really meet the children of the Four Holy Lands, it is estimated that these families will still have to secretly stammer!"

Jian Jiu's analysis was reasonable, and Xie Chen couldn't help nodding.

Suddenly, Jian Jiu's words changed, and he smiled: "Lord Sword Lord, don't you think that this is also an opportunity for you?"

"Do you mean to integrate the Four Holy Lands?" Xie Chen smiled and said what he meant by breaking Sword Nine.

"That's right! The Four Holy Lands are definitely an extremely powerful force, and their potential strength should surpass the sum of the Central Plains Kingdoms and the major families. It would be a great help if you could really establish authority among their children in their later years! Besides, hasn't someone already paved the way for you?"

"Road?" Xie Chen was also moved in his heart.

"Have you forgotten the phrase that the demon sword is in turmoil, and the earth is turned upside down?" Jian Jiu smiled meaningfully.

At this moment, suddenly there was a sound of footsteps outside, and a familiar voice sounded: "Hehe, Brother Qingfeng, the food and drinks here are said to be good." You and I are going to get drunk this time. ”

Luo Fan, Xie Chen suddenly held his breath and raised his eyebrows. He instantly recognized the owner of this voice, it was the second prince of Tianluo Kingdom, Luo Fan!

And this "Brother Light Breeze" in Luo Fan's mouth, is it ......

Xie Chen frowned slightly, and said secretly, "Why did the two of them appear here?"
