Chapter 17: Avoiding but Not Fighting
The next day, Yang Ning, who slept until dawn, felt refreshed, and after nearly a month of traveling, he woke up and lost all his fatigue.
Yang Ning looked at the Northern Xuan Sword Sect in the middle of late autumn and felt a solemn aura rushing towards him.
Maybe this is the unique aura of the Northern Xuan Sword Sect, after all, this is the Sword Sect, a group of sword cultivators, if there is no murderous aura, then it is still called sword cultivation, Yang Ning smiled self-deprecatingly.
Outside the window, you can see a maple forest, the maple leaves are red, like blood, and at the end of the pavilion's gaze, there is an abyss. The eyes of the early morning shone down, the white mist was filled, and the Northern Xuanjian Sect was like a fairyland, with a feeling of vapor and cloud dream.
On the square of the front mountain, there were faint bursts of sword chanting, which was the sound of the Sword Sect's disciples practicing swords.
When Yang Ning was bored, he walked out of the pavilion and walked towards the square in front of the mountain. Since you have come to the Northern Xuanjian Sect, let's follow a standard sect disciple.
Yang Ning quickly walked through the pavilion on the first floor, but it attracted many onlookers from his disciples.
Mainly because Yang Ning's green shirt is too conspicuous. The Northern Xuan Sword Sect is a sword cultivation sect, in order to pursue an elegant figure, so the disciples of the Sword Sect are generally white-clothed.
"This is the young man who was personally greeted by Elder Taishang yesterday?" A foreign affairs elder saw Yang Ning walking over and asked.
"Back to the elder's words, it should be, according to the disciples who witnessed it yesterday, the black clothes, I think it should be him......" The other disciples did not witness it, and only heard about it.
"You go and call him over, Sword Sect disciple, don't wear white clothes, what kind of body will you become?" The foreign affairs elder was wearing a black shirt that was fading away, and he was a little blind.
"Yes, Elder." The disciple immediately chased after him. This elder is a well-known scheming person in the Foreign Affairs Academy, if he is remembered, then you will definitely have a hard time in the next few days, at least in the Sword Sect.
This newcomer, although he was personally picked up by Elder Taishang, but if he offended this elder, I'm afraid that he will have a hard time in the future...... This disciple thought that he had already caught up with Yang Ning.
"Hey, this junior disciple ......" the white-clothed disciple stopped Yang Ning.
Yang Ning turned around and saw the white-clothed disciple rushing towards him, and he didn't know him, so he asked, "This senior brother, is there something wrong?" ”
"Our foreign affairs elders are invited."
"Foreign Affairs Elder?" Yang Ning was stunned for a moment, thinking back to the place just now, there was indeed an attic of the Foreign Affairs Academy, but the Foreign Affairs Elder was looking for him, could it be said that there was something? He said, "Then please ask Senior Brother to lead the way." Yang Ning was not afraid of things and followed.
Yang Ning also knew in his heart that he came to the Sword Sect rashly, although he was personally greeted by the Sword Jue, but his rash ascent to the mountain would definitely offend some of them, but he didn't expect that it would come so quickly.
Soon, under the leadership of this disciple, Yang Ning came to the pavilion of the Foreign Affairs Academy.
When the two of them entered the door, they saw the foreign affairs elder who was busy, dressed in white, with a goatee on the corner of his mouth, about sixty years old, perhaps because of his sword cultivation, he didn't look old.
"Elder." The disciple shouted.
"Alright, you go down." The elder raised his head, saw the person he wanted to see, said casually, and then fell on Yang Ning.
"Yes."
"What's your name?" As soon as the elder spoke, there was a sense of reproach.
"Yang Ning." Yang Ning replied briefly and said, "I don't know if the elder is looking for me, is there something wrong?" Yang Ning stood still, unhurried.
"Something? Of course there is. The elder stared at Yang Ning and said backhandedly: "Don't you know the rules of the Sword Sect?" Between the words, there was already a look of annoyance.
Yang Ning felt a little inexplicable, how could this elder say that he would be angry when he was angry, he only entered the door yesterday, why did someone ask him about the rules of the Sword Sect today, Yang Ning shook his head, saying that he did not know the so-called rules of the Sword Sect.
"After the entry, at the disciple level, everyone is dressed in white, don't you know?" The foreign affairs elder stared at Yang Ning, and in his eyes, there were already signs of anger.
"White?" Yang Ning smiled slightly and said, "Where to get it?" ”
"Here I am." The foreign affairs elder said angrily: "I don't understand the rules of the Northern Xuan Sword Sect, and I still come to my Sword Sect, do you think my Sword Sect can be bullied?" ”
Yang Ning was suddenly amused by the words of the Foreign Affairs Elder, it was just a white coat, and it had not risen to the point of bullying the Northern Xuan Sword Sect. It seems that this foreign affairs elder has been instructed by some people to deliberately embarrass himself.
As everyone knows, Yang Ning wronged the foreign affairs elders in this matter.
Yang Ning said: "Don't dare." ”
"Hmph, you don't dare." The foreign affairs elder flicked his sleeves and said, "Which courtyard are you from?" "The foreign affairs elder feels that it is necessary to teach this Yang Ning a lesson, to become a disciple of the Northern Xuan Sword Sect, but he doesn't even understand the minimum rules of the Sword Sect, such a disciple, if he goes out in the future, wouldn't it be embarrassing.
"Me?" Yang Ning pointed to himself, he really didn't know that he was from that courtyard, and the sword never said it.
Yang Ning could only say that he didn't know, so he caused a rage from the foreign affairs elders. There are words in his mouth: In these years, anyone can go up the mountain, I really don't understand what the Sword Sect thinks, and I don't even understand the minimum rules, why do you collect so much?
So in the tone of Ai Ai, the foreign affairs elder, he reluctantly handed Yang Ning a set of white clothes, and finally said: "In the future, you must be subject to the rules, and you must not violate the rules in vain, otherwise you will ......."
The meaning is already obvious, if it is a repeat offense, it will definitely not be let go.
"Yes, yes......" Yang Ning suddenly felt that this foreign affairs elder was quite cute, at least not as he imagined, looking at the wriggling goatee, he wanted to laugh but didn't laugh.
At this moment, a disciple ran in from outside, came to the elder's side, and muttered a word, but it instantly made the elder's face change greatly.
"You said your name is Yang Ning?" The Foreign Affairs Elder looked at Yang Ning, as if he didn't quite believe his eyes, and looked at Yang Ning carefully.
"Hmm." Yang Ning nodded.
"Since it's Yang Ning, it's a lot of offense just now." The Elder's face instantly became pleasant.
Because the disciple who came suddenly just now said that Yang Ning was a disciple of Elder Taishang, which means that he, an elder of foreign affairs, was a peer of Yang Ning, and then thought of his deliberate difficulty just now, and the elder of foreign affairs felt that his face was hot.
But it was deliberately hidden, and it wasn't real.
"Senior brother, bring the white clothes here." The elder felt that his face was throbbing, just now he looked like he was going to eat someone, and now he begged someone to let Yang Ning give him the white clothes, and the elder felt that his face was lost in an instant just now.
"Senior brother?" Yang Ning was stunned for a moment and said, "Elder, what do you mean by this?" ”
What do you mean? Would you not know it yourself? Obviously, there is Elder Taishang to support you, but you pretend to be like a nobody, is this the legendary pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger? The more the elder thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible, and when he looked at Yang Ning's face, he suddenly became a little unnatural, but it was not good to show it blatantly.
"The junior brother has been accepted as an apprentice by the Supreme Elder, so he is naturally the same generation as me, and in the Northern Xuanjian Sect, those who are the same generation as the senior brother in charge do not need to wear white clothes." The elder explained, feeling the urge to find a crack in the ground to get into.
"Oh, that's what happened." Yang Ning suddenly realized and looked at the elder.
"My name is Chen Buqian, and my junior brother will call me Senior Brother Chen in the future." Chen Buqian put away the white clothes handed over by Yang Ning, and said to Yang Ning: "In the future, if the junior brother has any foreign affairs that cannot be solved, you can find me Chen Buqian, and the senior brother promises to handle it properly for you." Chen Buqian felt that it was necessary for him to have a good relationship with Yang Ning, after all, this was the disciple of the first person in the Northern Xuan Sword Sect, Elder Taishang, and if it was spread out in the future, it would also be very face-saving.
If this Yang Ning can become the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect in the future, wouldn't his identity rise with the tide, and then it would be comparable to a small Foreign Affairs Academy. Thinking of this, Chen Buqian felt an inexplicable excitement.
"Senior Brother Chen, is there anything else? I'll leave first. Yang Ning immediately put forward the meaning of resignation, for everything Chen Buqian thought in his heart, Yang Ning lived for two lives, and he could understand it quickly, but Yang Ning did not break it, nor did he refuse.
Sometimes some small things really need someone to help you, after all, you are not familiar with this place.
"Okay, good ......" Chen Buqian smiled and said, "Senior brother, you are busy with yours, don't worry about me." Chen Buqian looked at the young Yang Ning, who had already become a disciple of Elder Taishang, this honor, even if it was a lot of disciples of the Sword Sect, they couldn't do it.
After thinking about it, he and the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect used to talk and laugh, and they were excited to think about it, Chen Buqian was still intoxicated with his own world.
Yang Ning left the pavilion of the Foreign Affairs Academy, and soon came to the square, where more than two thousand disciples of the Northern Xuanjian Sect practiced swords at the same time, and the sword intent was intertwined, it was simply the world of swords.
The sword groaned constantly, whistling through, and the end was spectacular and abnormal.
On the side of the square, on the steps in front of the main hall, someone stared at a group of disciples practicing swords, and their expressions were full of satisfaction.
The reason why sword cultivation is above many cultivators is because sword cultivation has paid more than others.
Only by constantly drawing out the sword can he surpass many cultivators.
The sword is a killing weapon, but before killing, it must be sharpened to make the edge of the sword sharp, otherwise how can you kill the enemy.
The sword light is vertical and horizontal, swaying freely, a set of sword skills, along with the sword body, exudes deadly traces of moves.
Yang Ning looked at the group of disciples below, as if he had entered his own world, his past life and present life, he had embarked on the road of swordsman, but in his previous life, he had entered the road of swordsman because of the Tianque Sword, so he did not go very far, but this life is different, Yang Ning must have more strength than his previous life to have a chance to take revenge, otherwise he will live a new life, what is the meaning.
Therefore, in this life, Yang Ning is very fond of swords.
The man standing at the top of the steps saw Yang Ning coming and walked over slowly.
"You are Yang Ning?" There is a bit of anger in the breath.
"Yes." Yang Ning felt that the people of this Sword Sect did not have this problem, why did they have to ask him what his name was when someone came up, although there were many tricks, but such a question made Yang Ning very uncomfortable.
"Is there something wrong?" Yang Ning asked rhetorically.
"I heard that you were personally greeted by Elder Taishang, so I want to see and understand." The man said, the sword in his hand, the sword intent was high, and he looked like he was doing it.
"Who are you?" Yang Ning came to his senses, this person was the leader of those people.
"Sword Nine, Sword Sect ninth, War Academy fifth." Jian Jiu looked proud. With this achievement, in a place where swordsmen gather in the Sword Sect, he can be ranked ninth, which is enough to show that his qualifications are outstanding.
"Want to fight?" Yang Ning looked at Jian Jiu playfully.
"Come to war." Jian Jiu's sword intent was surging, and the whole person's momentum rose suddenly in an instant, like a ruthless Qingfeng, with a spirit sword in his hand, exuding scorching battle intent.
"No fighting." How can Yang Ning do it at will, not to mention the provocation of Jian Jiu, the main thing is that Yang Ning only has five chances to do it now, and he must not waste it at will, otherwise once the gecko's poison scures his heart, it will be difficult for the gods to save.
Thinking of this, Yang Ning felt that he needed to look for Jian Jue again, but since yesterday, Jian Jue seemed to have something on his mind, and he was not sure if he could find it.
Hey, the gecko is in the heart, and the individual is worried.
Yang Ning had no choice but to avoid the war.
