Chapter 612: Star Sword Villa
Although Star Sword Villa is not too famous in the rivers and lakes, no one dares to underestimate its current strength.
As the fifth line said, among the top ten swordsmen who are becoming more and more famous in the rivers and lakes today, the Xingjianmen family occupies three seats. Although the skeleton sword Qin Gang was finally expelled from the division by Ou Zhen, his martial arts were completely from the Star Sword Sect. Moreover, he can rank fourth on the swordsman list, which shows that Ou Zhen is at least among the top three if compared with the top ten swordsmen. The top three positions on the swordsman list are all big names who move the rivers and lakes.
Xingjian Villa is in Xingjian Mountain in northern Jiangsu, and further north after Taizhou, it is close to the boundary of Shandong.
Of course, the reason why Xingjianmen is not well-known in the rivers and lakes is largely due to their complacency. Although the Star Sword Sect is headed by Ou Zhen, in fact, there are many elders of the scholar clan above, and they are all more prestigious figures than Ou Zhen in the family. They are the ones who are truly in charge of the Star Sword Sect. This is not much different from the elders of the Tang Sect, most of the elders of the Tang Sect are only called elders because of their seniority, and the sect is actually the head of the sect.
The Star Sword Gate is mainly controlled by four famous families, namely the Nangong family, Ou Zhen's Ou family, the Li family, and the Li family. Nangong, Ou and Li are all full of incense, and there are outstanding characters in the family, but the Li family is thin and has no successors. The only person in the Li family who is somewhat famous is Li Tianhao, an elder known as the Tricky Sword. Except for the fact that he had a little bit of weight to speak in the Star Sword Gate, the others were not worth mentioning at all. The Li family not only does not have the slightest fame in the rivers and lakes, but is also a despised vein in the family.
There is another reason why the Li family is declining in the Star Sword Gate, which actually has a lot to do with Li Tianhao. Li Tianhao was originally as famous as Ou Zhen in Xingjianmen, but his temperament was completely opposite to Ou Zhen. Ou Zhen has a strong family concept, and for the sake of family interests, he has challenged Ren Xiaoyao many times. But Li Tianhao is the opposite, he is a person with the most family sense, he only knows how to travel in the mountains and rivers all day long, go in and out of the land of fireworks, and linger among the incense powder. After Ou Zhen lost to Ren Xiaoyao that year, Xingjianmen intended to let Li Tianhao challenge Ren Xiaoyao again, but Li Tianhao sternly refused. Not only that, for this matter, Xingjianmen also used the secret order of the head of the house to summon him back to the mountain many times, who knew that Li Tianhao "will not be subject to the order of the foreign monarch", completely ignoring the order of the master, this incident once caused a big sensation in the Xingjianmen. At that time, some people even proposed that Li Tianhao be expelled from the division to set an example. However, since the Li family is also a big family of the Star Sword Sect, in the end, because of the opposition of the Li family, the matter did not take place.
There is another thing that is also very unfavorable to the Li family, which is also related to Li Tianhao.
The Star Sword Sect is not only a very exclusive sect, but it is also very strict in accepting disciples. If you are not a disciple of the Sect Clan, it is difficult for outsiders to join the Star Sword Sect. Even if a disciple with a foreign surname joins, he is very strict with him, not only can he not divulge the secrets of his own sect, but he is also not allowed to go down the mountain without the consent of the elders.
However, Li Tianhao brought in another outsider, and this person was the skeleton sword Qin Gang. Although Qin Gang was Ou Zhen's disciple, he was originally brought into the Star Sword Gate by Li Tianhao. Qin Gang was an orphan when he was young, and when Li Tianhao was out playing, he saw that he was even pitiful, so he took him in privately. Originally, Qin Gang wanted to worship Li Tianhao as his teacher, but Li Tianhao didn't like to accept apprentices, so he brought him into the Star Sword Gate, and finally let him worship under Ou Zhen's Gate.
Although Ou Zhen and Li Tianhao have very different personalities, but the good man cherishes the good man, they are small, and the relationship between the two is also very good, and it is not as outsiders think, Li Tianhao is because he failed to compete with Ou Zhen for the position of the head, and then left the Star Sword Gate in shame.
In fact, there was no fight between the two of them at all. Because from beginning to end, Li Tianhao had no interest in this position of head. If there was anything that affected the relationship between the two of them, it was only the skeleton sword Qin Gang.
Qin Gang worshiped under Ou Zhen's sect, although his swordsmanship became more and more sophisticated, his conduct was very misconductful, and he often did things that hurt heaven and reason.
As the saying goes, a pot of rat feces spoils a pot of soup. Qin Gang was a grain of rat, but he ruined all the reputation that Ou Zhen had accumulated in the rivers and lakes for many years. Because of this, Ou Zhen has always complained, why did Li Tianhao bring Qin Gang into the Star Sword Gate in the first place? Li Tianhao is a person with a free and easy temperament, but because of this incident, he does feel ashamed of Xingjianmen and Ou Zhen in his heart. He originally wanted to capture Qin Gang back to the Star Sword Gate, but Qin Gang was very cunning at first, and his whereabouts had been erratic for many years, and Li Tianhao himself actually didn't really pursue him, so the matter never came to fruition.
Of course, there is another reason why the Star Sword Gate is xenophobic.
Legend has it that in the Star Sword Gate, there are not only many famous swords in the world, but also many sword books of sects and martial arts masters.
It can be said that today, if it is related to kendo, there is no sect that can compare with the Star Sword Gate, which is mainly related to its rich collection of kendo.
The Star Sword Sect has a collection of many famous swords and famous swords in the world, so they naturally don't want their treasures to be stolen by outsiders. Even there are many famous and decent families who don't know that the sword spectrum that they regard as unique stunts is also collected in the mountains by the Star Sword Gate. It is precisely because outsiders don't know that no one goes to Xingjian Mountain to find trouble. The Star Sword Sect has always refused outsiders, which is also an important reason, that is, it is afraid that someone will leak the secrets of this sect.
The famous swords and sword scores of the Star Sword Gate are all stored in one place - the Great Sword Pavilion.
Qin Gang once sneaked into the Great Sword Pavilion out of curiosity, and stole the sword book of the Skeleton Sword and the Soul Snatching Sword. With these two things alone, Qin Gang ranked fourth on the list of swordsmen later.
It is conceivable that if there is a person who can learn all the martial arts collected by the Star Sword Gate, wouldn't he be invincible in the world.
However, having said that, in fact, the more numerous the names of martial arts, the more dazzling it is. In the end, I didn't learn anything, and I didn't learn anything. Just like the Shaolin sect, although there are countless Shaolin secret techniques, no one has ever been able to learn them all.
After all, people's energy is limited, and they should not get more than they want.
From this point of view, the Star Sword Sect is still a very prestigious sect, and it is also very related to the Xiaoyao Sect. Sometimes the two are enemies, sometimes they are friends, they are separated and combined, and the relationship is complicated.
Of course, the Star Sword Sect itself is still a very righteous sect, but it is only blindly xenophobic that restricts its development. This is fundamentally not much different from the Xiaoyao Gate. It is reasonable that Ren Xiaoyao can think of Xingjianmen and Ou Zhen at a critical moment.
