Ask the sword world Jiuzhou.

The cold air is all over the wilderness.

Winter.

The snow is falling, and the crows are singing.

On the top of the snow-capped mountain, there is a person, dressed in white and beating snow, as if he is one with the winter color of this world.

The corners of his mouth are smiling, but he has the temperament of rejecting people thousands of miles away. incompatible with his elegance.

He had a sword in his hand, a snow-white scabbard with an ancient pattern. The hilt of the sword is inlaid with pearls, inky gemstones.

The sword is as famous as his master, he was once a genius swordsman in Jiuzhou, and by the time he was in his twenties, he was among the ten strongest people in the world.

Today, he is nearly forty years old, and he is recognized as the strongest swordsman in the world. He himself did not think so, because in his heart there was a man whose swordsmanship was far superior to him.

At the time of Shen, the snow was still heavy.

There is a person climbing the mountain trail. A cyan robe, with a handsome face, a long sword hanging obliquely behind him, looking left and right, walking leisurely like a passerby.

The white clothes on the mountain know that this person is the protagonist today.

A black robe stopped three zhang away, looked at the white robe, and asked, "The first sword in the world, Han Qianye?" ”

Bai Yi nodded: "It's me." ”

The black robe asked, "Do you deserve to be the first in the world?" ”

Bai Yi shook his head: "No." ”

The black robe suddenly smiled, and his smile was cynical. He pulled out his long sword, pointed at the white clothes, and said, "Today, the number one in the world will change hands." ”

The white face did not change: "I know." ”

The black robe asked, "Do you know me?" ”

Bai Yi looked into the distance: "I have known for a long time, and I have known for a long time that there is such a catastrophe." ”

The black robe raised his eyebrows and asked, "Don't accept your fate?" ”

Bai Yi nodded, pressed the thumb of his left hand on the hilt of the sword, took out the sword by more than an inch, and said, "I'm not reconciled." ”

The black robe's wrist flipped, pulled a sword flower, and behind the sword, he said: "I ask the sword, only life and death." ”

Bai Yi said indifferently: "Let's take out the sword." ”

A sneer appeared at the corner of the black robe's mouth, and the sword light flashed, and a sword stabbed out. I saw only a trace of afterimage, bringing up snowflakes on the ground.

......

Unitary time, sunset time.

Dressed in a black robe and carrying a sword, he went down the mountain.

He was covered in blood, but the smile on his face remained undiminished.

The next day, news spread through the streets.

The corner restaurant is full of rumors about the battle of the opening of the mountain yesterday.

"Have you heard, Han Qianye of the Nine Swords Gate died under the sword of the scattered swordsman Li Xiao."

"It's not, that Li Xiao is not obvious, I don't want to have such ability."

Someone smacked his tongue.

"It's nothing, the most important thing is that I heard that Li Xiao only made one sword!"

"A sword? Fake, right? It was Han Qianye who asked the sword He Lu back then, and it took a night of fighting to determine the winner! ”

He Lu was the second person in the world after Han Qianye in swordsmanship.

"I see, it must be that Li Xiao who made a sneak attack, otherwise with the ability of Han Da Swordsman, how could he not catch a sword?"

Someone stood up to defend Han Qianye, presumably either a disciple of the Nine Swords Sect or someone who was good friends with him.

Immediately, someone stood up and retorted: "It's that Han Qianye's skills are not as good as others, even if he has a few more swords, he is not dead!" ”

Everyone in the restaurant has their own opinions and quarrels.

By the window, there is a man in a black robe drinking alone, and there is a plate of side dishes on the table.

After eating the side dishes, the man drank the wine in the pot, got up and left, and asked the shopkeeper for a pot of wine as he left.

In the twilight, the black-robed man turned into an alley with the setting sun on his back, and someone at the other end of the alley waited for a long time with a sword in his arms.

The black robe stopped, and someone appeared behind him, blocking his way.

Also a swordsman.

Two people, two swords, one old and one young, one in front and one behind.

The young man with the sword took the lead in speaking: "Li Xiao, did you really kill Han Qianye with a sword?" ”

The black robe is Li Xiao, the first person in the world to ask the sword from Tiankaifeng.

Li Xiao had never seen these two people, but she had heard their names. are all famous masters in the rivers and lakes.

The real name of the old man behind him is unknown, the people in the rivers and lakes are called the old nine swords, because he killed the enemy at most nine swords, he moved the rivers and lakes of Jiuzhou, and he is the swordsman who can rank in the top ten in the whole world.

This time he came to Qingcheng Town, originally to ask the sword Han Qianye, but who knew that Han Qianye actually died under Li Xiao's sword, so he changed the target to Li Xiao.

The young man is named Xie Ling, and he is the young owner of the Gujian Villa. He is a famous genius in the rivers and lakes, he has been practicing swordsmanship since he was a child, and he has already ranked among the top ten swordsmen in the world at the age of eighteen.

Li Xiao knew very well that they came to weigh the weight of the new number one person in the world. But Li Xiao had his rules, so he said: "Ask me about the sword, only life and death." ”

Xie Ling was eager to try, looked at the old man behind Li Xiao, and asked, "Who will come first?" ”

Lao Jiujian sneered: "Why don't we divide the winner first?" ”

Li Xiao said: "It's better to go together." ”

Lao Jiujian frowned and said, "Let's go together?" ”

Li Xiao nodded and said, "I'm in a hurry." ”

Xie Ling said angrily: "You are too arrogant, it is not glorious to win if you bully more and less!" ”

Li Xiao smiled and said, "You don't even have a chance to play the sword, how can you win or lose?" ”

Xie Ling had no patience for nonsense, and said coldly: "Take out the sword!" ”

Li Xiao asked, "Really? ”

Xie Ling nodded: "Really!" ”

Li Xiao's sword was out of its sheath, and it was like the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it swept in front of Xie Ling, and with a sword, he picked out the sword in his arms, and the tip of the sword had already touched the young man's forehead.

Xie Ling's hands and feet are cold, what a fast sword!

Even against Han Qianye, he asked himself how many rounds he could take, and he lost so simply in the hands of this man. As he said, there is not even a chance to draw a sword, so there is no talk of winning or losing.

Li Xiao said indifferently: "You lost, but I won't kill you." ”

Xie Ling asked, "Why?" ”

Li Xiao had a sarcastic smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "I'll give you another chance to make a move, but there is only one chance." ”

Xie Ling clenched his fists, this was undoubtedly a humiliation for a top ten swordsman, but he didn't want to miss this opportunity.

Li Xiao said: "Back to the Ancient Sword Villa, come and kill me after ten years of sword practice, maybe there is still a chance." ”

Xie Ling gritted his teeth, suddenly stared at Li Xiao and asked, "What if you die under someone else's sword in ten years?" ”

Li Xiao smiled: "Then you go and kill the person who can kill me, you are the best in the world." ”

His kind of self-confidence, unless he is the first in the world, he can't kill me!

Xie Ling squinted at the man in front of him and said, "Then you'd better not die." ”

Li Xiao sneered: "As you wish." ”

Xie Ling turned around and left, Li Xiao looked back at Lao Jiujian and said, "It's your turn." ”

Lao Jiujian knew that something was wrong, and he had already taken the lead in making a move, jumped up, and stabbed out with a volley of swords. This is the first of the nine swords he became famous for, Bird Leap.

Li Xiao dodged sideways, understatement.

Lao Jiujian pulled out, turned around and stabbed out the second style, and the goose returned.

Li Xiao drew his sword out of the sheath and swung his sword to block it.

The two swords failed, and the old nine swords came out with another sword, the eagle strike.

Li Xiao still dodged and did not release a sword.

Just when Lao Jiujian was about to stab out the fourth sword, Xie Ling finally made a move.

A sword broke through the air and pierced the throat of Lao Jiujian. Lao Jiujian was unable to stab the fourth sword until he died.

Li Xiao looked at the old nine swords, who were still not dead, and said coldly: "It's not more than three." ”

The sword was put back into its sheath, and the old nine swords fell to the ground.

Li Xiao looked at the corpse on the ground, and suddenly smiled: "If you can live, you will be more famous than now, even Han Qianye can only shoot one sword at me, but you have three swords, but unfortunately you are dead." ”

Li Xiao left the alley, leaving only a corpse.

Soon, the news of Li Xiao's successive defeats of Xie Ling and Lao Jiujian spread all over the world, confirming his reputation as the number one sword in the world.

However, fame was as light as a feather to Li Xiao, and he asked Han Qianye to try how fast his sword was, not to covet the fame of the world's number one sword.

......

Nine Sword Gate, cloud upstairs.

Blood-stained white clothes hung on the wall, and a sword lay across the table. It was Han Qianye's clothes and his sword, and the name of the sword was Jixue.

As elegant as a sword.

Facing the white clothes, kneeling a young man, also white.

He is the only disciple of Han Qianye, named Shi Yu, his talent is mediocre, and the fifteen-year-old boy is no match for any of his peers in the Nine Swords Sect, but fortunately, his master is Han Qianye. He is the noble young master, but now Han Qianye is dead.

"Shi Yu, you colluded with Li Xiao to harm the master of the sect, deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors, and you deserve death!"

A roar resounded through the clouds and went upstairs, shaking the dust on the beams.

The person who spoke walked with his sword in his hand, his eyes were like torches, staring directly at Shi Yu, and said: "As a disciple of the sect master, you actually colluded with Li Xiao to drug the door master, and you are the culprit of the door master's death!" ”

As soon as these words came out, the four seats were in an uproar.

The disciples of the Nine Swords Sect who were upstairs looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief.

"No wonder that Li Xiao was able to defeat the master of the door with just one sword, it turned out that you were a little beast!"

A disciple of the Nine Swords Sect stood up to accuse Shi Yu, full of anger.

The disciples of the Nine Swords Sect woke up like a dream, and they were all emotional. For a while, the insults came one after another, and I couldn't wait to chop Shi Yu on the spot.

Shi Yu looked at the visitor coldly and asked, "What about the motive?" ”

The man said, "Seek power and usurp the throne!" ”

Shi Yu sneered: "The position of the little door master? ”

The person who came, Shi Yu, was very familiar, it was Zhu Zhe, the elder of the Nine Swords Gate, usually except for the master, it was this person who treated him best, but he didn't expect that in the end it was this person who took the lead in pouring dirty water.

Inconstancy!

Zhu Zhe said in a deep voice: "What a big breath! If it's not the position of the master, could it be that you have other plans? Could it be the master's sword? ”

An even bigger hat was buckled on Shi Yu's head.

Shi Yu said indifferently: "When the master immortal dies, the position of the sword and the master of the sect are all mine, why do you need to do more?" ”

Zhu Zhe sneered: "Just you waste? Even if you are dead and the master of the door is still alive and well, if you are not afraid of this, how can you be so anxious? ”

Shi Yu suddenly smiled and said, "Zhu Zhe, don't you just want the position of the master of the door, give it to you, why bother so much?" ”

Zhu Zhejian pointed at Shi Yu, and said righteously: "Do you think everyone is as dirty as you?" ”

Shi Yu laughed out loud, also drew his sword out of the sheath, pointed at Zhu Zhe, and said heroically: "Well said! So how do you want to? Ask the sword to me? ”

Zhu Zhe spat his phlegm and mocked: "You are also worthy?" Today I will do the right thing for heaven, except for you, the little brute who deceived the teacher and destroyed the ancestors! ”

With that, a sword stabbed out.

Shi Yu was discouraged, and letting him fight with Zhu Zhe was tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

However, he still came out of the sword, not seeking to kill, but seeking a clear conscience.
