Qingcheng Town.

Nine Sword Gate, cloud upstairs.

A middle-aged man dressed in the iconic white of the Nine Swords Sect sat on the main seat.

The huge cloud was empty.

The middle-aged man sighed, his eyes resentful.

His name is Luo Qing, and he was once a respected elder descendant disciple of the Nine Swords Sect, and now he is the new master of the Nine Swords Sect.

For him to inherit the position of the master of this sect, it was not only his master's intention, but also the support of Zhu Zhe and other elders at that time, the reason is very simple, he is the person with the highest talent in sword training in this generation of Nine Swordsmen, and he is also the person with the highest attainment in the 'Nine Swords Decision' at present. Although he couldn't catch up with Han Qianye back then, he also comprehended the meaning of the seventh style "'stability' before the age of thirty."

He thought that being the master of this family was the beginning of glory and wealth, but he didn't want it to be the beginning of exhaustion.

In the past few months since he sat in the position of the head of the door, this young man who was less than thirty years old already had white threads on his head, and the furrows between his eyebrows were deeper than before.

Since the Nine Swords Sect lost Han Qianye, it has lost its previous fame, and from the first-class Jianghu sect, it has plummeted and directly bottomed. Even the evil people who used to only dare to secretly disgust people now dare to swagger and spit on the mountain gate.

Luo Qing knew that this was all inconsequential, and the most worrying thing at the moment was the other fighting sects in the rivers and lakes that were once hostile, and even the immortal forces on the mountain.

If it is okay to ask the sword openly, if it is sneaky and secretly plotting, the Nine Swords Gate will face a catastrophe.

When Han Qianye was the master of the sect before, he was too self-cherishing, and there were not a few good sects, but there were a large number of Jianghu sects that were not used to Han Qianye's lofty style. In that popular sentence, it is: A Jianghu sect, without a bit of Jianghu atmosphere, has to be the same as the Immortal Sect, do you really think that he Han Qianye is Han Dajian Immortal?

In fact, Han Qianye didn't do anything, but he had such a reputation on his back, which is the other side of the rivers and lakes. The black miasma that is different from the bright and upright one, I can't see the good of others, let alone anyone standing on my head. But the rivers and lakes are not like this, the rivers and lakes are all kinds of things, and they are all kinds of life.

The young doorman reclined in his chair and rubbed his temples gently.

Da, da, da......

Unhurried footsteps sounded in the empty clouds upstairs.

It was an old man dressed in the white clothes of the Nine Swords Gate.

Seeing the comer, Luo Qing stood up, walked over quickly, and helped the old man's arm. After the old man sat down in his seat, he respectfully saluted beside him and said, "Master." ”

It is Jiang Cheng, the elder of the Nine Swords Gate, Luo Qing's mentor.

"Why are you here?" Luo Qing didn't sit down, still standing aside.

"Now the situation is more severe, and it is difficult for the teacher to sit still." Jiang Cheng frowned, I heard that there had been several waves of Jianghu people and mountain monks gathered outside Qingcheng recently, and it was very likely that they were coming to the Nine Swords Gate.

"But at the moment, it seems that the only way to do this is to take one step at a time." Luo Qing's face was pale, he didn't know the situation under the mountain, but he just had no way to deal with it.

"I thought that the position of the master of this door was a fragrant bait, but I didn't expect it to be a mess, I knew that I shouldn't have pushed you up in the first place, and the waste top tank with the surname Shi was good, Zhu Zhe's old thing was good, and when he died, he left you and me to clean up the mess here, alas......" Jiang Cheng was not small, although he was self-inflicted, he still held a grudge against many people.

The lowest thing about human nature is that it is clearly wrong with oneself, but it depends on the head of others, and I believe in it.

Luo Qing didn't have so much resentment, his eyes passed through the lobby of the cloud upstairs and fell on the clouds outside the window.

The clouds go upstairs, and above the white clouds, there are immortals. Now it is very likely that it will change hands.

The Nine Swords Gate is excellent in terms of area and geographical location, and as the Yunshanglou of the Patriarch's Hall, it is full of spiritual energy, and it is a treasure of feng shui itself, and it is also an excellent place for cultivation.

There are not a few sects on the mountain who covet this place, but they were afraid of Han Qianye before, so they didn't snatch it. Because when Han Qianye was alive, he really had the strength to fight with the monks of the Cave Void Realm, and if he put it on the mountain, the Nine Swords Sect could also be regarded as a medium sect.

But now it's different, without Han Qianye's protection, Jiujianmen is like a child with a heavy treasure, and he may die at any time because of the treasure in his arms.

It is a mistake for a person who holds a treasure to not have the ability to protect the treasure.

"So far, we can only block it with soldiers, and the water will cover it." Luo Qing finally didn't have the strength to stand, and sat heavily on the chair, looking depressed.

"I'm afraid I can't stop it." Jiang Chengchang sighed.

In the courtyard outside Yunshang Tower, there was a teenager dressed in tatters. With a broom in his hand, he is diligently sweeping the floor.

When there is no one around, he will pick up the branches on the side of the road and play a set of swordsmanship that he learned secretly.

When you are tired, rest against a stone.

He remembered the peer who was prominent in the clouds, but he could only play with him.

One is the descendant of the high-ranking master, and the other is a lowly sweeper, but he has become the best friend of the Nine Swords Gate.

It's just that the young man in white is no longer in the Nine Swords Gate, I heard that he was the culprit who killed the master of the Han Sect, and after the truth was revealed, the sect was sentenced.

The handyman boy categorically didn't believe it, just like when he first came to the Nine Swords Gate, someone suspected him of stealing things, and it was the young man who stood in front of him without hesitation.

He also stood on the side of the boy without hesitation.

Others may not know, but he knows how much respect that young man has for the master of the Han Sect.

It's just that he is a sweeper, how many people are willing to listen to his words, and how many people are willing to believe it?

"Jin Nian, it's time for Grandpa Liu to teach you swordsmanship."

The boy smiled and stood up to look at the visitor.

He was a sloppy old man, dressed in white-washed clothes, with his messy hair draped over his shoulders, unkempt, and staggering in his hand with a wine jug.

"Old Liu, as far as your three-legged cat's kung fu is concerned, let's keep it and practice it slowly!" The boy grimaced at the dirty old man.

The old man was also not brainless, came to the young man's side, took a sip of wine, and said: "Jin Nian, you doll has no vision, quite an old man, but he has traveled all over the world with the master of the Han Gate, which can be described as majestic, and even the master of the Han Gate gives me a thumbs up for my swordsmanship." ”

The young man who was called by the old man to be a young man listened to the old man's bragging, and rolled his eyes.

But there is no bad feeling.

The old man occasionally drank too much, and would play two tricks in front of him, like a decent one. At that time, the unforgiving teenager will also secretly learn on the side.

The boy sat on the stone and squinted his eyes to look up at the sky.

Suddenly, I missed my peer in white.

I wonder where he is now?

How's it going?

Can we see each other again in this life?

————

Yuchikou, the temple of the gods.

Helian Xue's realm has been stabilized, but he still sits cross-legged, closing his eyes and recuperating.

Shi Yu flew first, practiced boxing, and occasionally drew a circle with his left hand and a square with his right hand according to what was said on the first page of the twin swordsmanship.

Zhang Zhizhen is a self-acquaintance, and he chatted vigorously with the girl in black, mostly he was talking, the woman was listening, and occasionally interjected a sentence. It's just that when talking to Zhang Zhizhen, the woman's eyes will glance at Shi Yu from time to time.

Shi Yu concentrated on practicing boxing without noticing, Zhang Zhizhen bragged more energetically, and of course it was not easy to find.

Through the conversation between the two, it was learned that the woman in black was named Li Meng, and the blind woman was named Zhou Wen, both of whom were from the high-ranking Immortal Sect, the Jade Sword Sect.

Li Meng is a heart-stirring realm monk, and Zhou Wen is even more of a Jindan bottleneck.

As a know-it-all among several people, Zhang Zhizhen has certainly heard of the latter. Even Helian Xue, who is not among the ten talents, knows that for Zhou Wen, who is sixth, he naturally knows more details.

It's just that he has never been interested in this flawed Jade Sword Sect fairy.

In Shi Yu's opinion, Zhou Wen's appearance is a few points better than that of Li Meng. The raw lips are red and the teeth are white, the face is clean, and the long hair is tied high behind the head, which is even more heroic and refreshing, and it has a unique flavor.

On the other hand, Li Meng, although he has a bewitching posture and charming eyes, he always wears a face towel, and it is unknown that Lushan is the true face under the face towel.

Zhang Zhizhen just likes this hazy beauty, but Shi Yu is not cold.

"Whew-"

Suddenly, a shrill voice came.

Several people turned their heads to look at each other in unison.

I saw that the barrier leading to the next layer had been broken, and the several people who worked together to refine the barrier rushed into the passage like rainbow light.

"The barrier is open!"

I don't know who shouted, and the people around immediately reacted and rushed to the passage. For a time, the entrance to the passage was crowded.

Shi Yu and the others were not in a hurry, and waited for the others to be less than that before they walked over.

In his words, it is: chance is not a matter of speed.

When you go down to the bottom floor, your vision suddenly widens.

It is a very wide area with flat terrain.

As far as the eye can see, there is only a high platform in the center, and a stone sword blank is chained to the platform.

"I didn't expect there to really be a fairy sword!" Zhang Zhizhen looked excited.

The moment Shi Yu saw the sword, his heart ached faintly, like a drum beating in his heart.

Suddenly, a dark shadow swept out of the passage and rushed straight towards Helian Xue.

"Be careful!" Zhang Zhizhen exclaimed.

But before everyone could react, Helian Xue was choked by the neck and smashed on the wall, and a pit was smashed.

It was a middle-aged man in a black robe.

The middle-aged man tightly grabbed Helian Xue's neck, making her almost suffocated, her face turned red, and she couldn't break free.

"A little girl who has just broken through the realm dares to covet the Immortal Record?" The middle-aged man had a cruel smile on his face, and the force in his hand suddenly increased.

At the time of this change, there was an even bigger change.

Li Meng, who took the initiative to show his companionship, suddenly stabbed Shi Yu with his sword.

With Shi Yu's strength, he would definitely not be able to dodge the full force of the Heartbeat Realm cultivator's blow.

At this critical moment, Zhang Zhizhen blocked in front of Shi Yu, and Li Meng, who was hit with one palm, staggered back.

She managed to stabilize her body, clutching her chest and coughing up a mouthful of blood.

"What are you doing?" Zhou Wen was full of anger, stared at Li Meng and shouted.

The man in black looked at Zhang Zhizhen, frowned slightly, and immediately stretched out, and sneered: "There is one more Jindan realm, but it still doesn't help." ”

Zhang Zhizhen looked at the man in black with a solemn face.

No one noticed that Shi Yu, who had been keeping his head down, had a hideous and terrifying face.
