Chapter 42: The Weak Fight Back

Cloud Sword Sect Council Chamber.

"So, those juniors who offended my Cloud Sword Sect are already dead?"

It was late at night after Su Xiao came back yesterday, so he came over to report the situation the next day, Liu Wushuang was waiting for him in the conference hall, and Lu Dingjiang stood next to him with a respectful face.

Hearing Liu Wushuang ask, Su Xiao glanced at Lu Dingjiang, who was standing not far away.

"All the people I saw had died at the hands of Elder Lu."

Liu Wushuang frowned when she heard this, and glanced at Lu Dingjiang next to her: "Elder Lu, you also went?" ”

Lu Dingjiang hurriedly arched his hand: "Those who were kidnapped by those young people, one is the grandniece of the old man, and the other is also a disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, the old man is really not at ease." ”

After rescuing them, the old man killed them and left no one behind. Please rest assured. ”

Hearing Lu Dingjiang say this, Liu Wushuang's brows stretched slightly.

"It's for the best. If you dare to offend our Cloud Sword Sect, you must not stay! ”

After speaking, Liu Wushuang, who was sitting on the main seat, stretched out and swept Su Xiao and Lu Dingjiang with a glance.

"You all have merit this time, but the martial arts exercises of the Four Nations are about to start, and after the martial arts exercises are over, they will be rewarded."

Su Xiao said in a deep voice: "This time it was all Elder Lu's shot, it has nothing to do with me, if you want to reward him, you can reward him." ”

After speaking, Su Xiao didn't care about them anymore, and turned around and left with a slight bow.

Liu Wushuang didn't bother to care about him, and looked at Lu Dingjiang.

"Soon it will be the martial arts of the Four Kingdoms, all the sects and families should arrive one after another in the next few days, and the people from the Western Xinjiang should also be coming soon, are the rooms and hospitality they live in ready?"

Lu Dingjiang hurriedly nodded: "Sect Master, rest assured, everything has been perfected, and it will definitely show the atmosphere of my first major sect in Chibei!" ”

Liu Wushuang nodded, and then instructed: "When the time comes, don't forget to beat out the Wanmin Umbrella and let them know who is in charge of the Cloud Sword Sect now." ”

"Please rest assured, sect master."

Liu Wushuang looked at Lu Dingjiang, leaned forward slightly, and lowered his voice again: "Guan Changhai's side...... How's it going? ”

Guan Changhai is a general on the southwestern border of Chibei, and his family is in nearby Linyun City. Liu Wushuang had his eyes on them when he first came out.

"The eyeliner that was inserted earlier has been announced. Guan Changhai's family is ready to go out to enjoy the flowers in these days. ”

Lu Dingjiang's expression became grim: "The old man has arranged a good person, and he will do it at that time." ”

"Good."

Liu Wushuang nodded with satisfaction: "This matter needs to be kept secret and done cleanly, understand?" ”

Lu Dingjiang nodded with his hand, and Liu Wushuang shook his hand and signaled that Lu Dingjiang could retreat.

But for a long time, he was not seen to leave.

Liu Wushuang was suddenly surprised: "Elder Lu, is there anything else?" ”

Lu Dingjiang waited for Liu Wushuang to ask himself, and hurriedly said, "Door master, there is indeed something." ”

"I'll report to a disciple next. When that kid led the team to collect taxes, it was not what we thought. ”

Liu Wushuang suddenly frowned: "What?" Insufficient silver? ”

"Two taels of silver are enough, but his method of collecting taxes ......"

Outside, before Su Xiao returned to the Sword Casting Hall, he bumped into Lu Meng again.

Su Xiao had to take her to the Sword Casting Hall, and the two chatted with each other. Of course, most of them were Lu Meng's words, and Su Xiao occasionally responded briefly.

Walk to the path outside the Sword Forge Hall, where there is no one but them. Lu Meng suddenly stopped, and after struggling for a long time, he raised his head and stared at Su Xiao with hope.

"Brother Liuzi, I'm ...... There are still a few months left before adulthood. ”

"When the time comes, we will be able to fulfill our agreement."

Su Xiao fell silent in an instant.

Undoubtedly, Lu Meng is very friendly to himself, and even too friendly many times.

But these are not for themselves, but for the already dead Tu Liu.

Su Xiao didn't know what kind of agreement Tu Liu had with Lu Meng, but now that Lu Meng mentioned that he was about to become an adult, and Su Xiao knew, Tu Liu had been seriously injured and disfigured in order to treat Lu Meng......

A guess that seemed ridiculous and seemed to be the only reasonable one instantly appeared in Su Xiao's mind.

Promise by example?!

As soon as this idea appeared, Su Xiao's mind suddenly became a mess!

Before, he had dodged perfunctorily, but now Lu Meng was staring at him with burning eyes, and it seemed that it was difficult to avoid it anymore.

Rather than letting Lu Meng continue to hold on to a false hope and be sad when he finds out that he is not Tu Liu in the future, Su Xiao would rather take advantage of the fact that he is still wearing the identity of "Tu Liu" to quickly cut through the mess!

In this way, maybe the damage to Lu Meng can be minimized.

With inexplicable guilt, Su Xiao finally said in a deep voice: "Little dream, you also know...... I ...... before The brain is confused, and the agreement at that time cannot be counted. ”

"Besides, you're so young. It's good to know that you want to repay your kindness, but there is no need to wronged yourself and do what you don't want to do. ”

Lu Meng was stunned by Su Xiao's words, and blinked his eyes: "What...... What don't you want to do? Brother Liuzi, what are you talking about? ”

Su Xiao took a deep breath.

"Our ...... Promise"

"Or ...... Forget it. ”

Lu Mengru was struck by lightning, and the whole person was instantly stunned.

After a long time, he trembled: "Brother Six, Brother Liuzi, are you ...... Repented? ”

Su Xiao didn't dare to look at Lu Meng's already red eyes: "You don't need to wronged yourself, I'm fine now, you don't have to care too much......"

"What a grievance against yourself! Our agreement, that's all my own willingness! ”

Lu Meng grabbed Su Xiao's hand, and tears rolled down.

"Isn't it...... What did my uncle tell you? Brother Liuzi, tell me honestly, otherwise, you won't be ......"

"Nope."

Su Xiao hurriedly interrupted: "This is all my own thoughts. It's true. ”

Hearing this, Lu Meng didn't speak again, but he still bit his lip and stared at Su Xiao with a face full of grievances.

"Brother Liuzi, I ......"

After a long time, Lu Meng was about to say something more, but he saw a figure coming from far and near in mid-air.

"What kind of system does the sect pull and pull?"

Seeing that person, Lu Meng was taken aback, and hurriedly knelt down and saluted.

"I've seen the Sect Master!"

The person who came turned out to be Liu Wushuang.

After coming to Su Xiao and Lu Meng, Liu Wushuang fell from mid-air to the ground, her body remained as light and elegant as a feather, and she followed her with her right hand and flicked the sword fingers, and the long sword that brought her just now turned twice in the air, and flew into the scabbard behind her without mistake.

Lu Meng had already saluted, but Su Xiao was still standing still. Lu Meng was afraid that he would be embarrassed, so he hurriedly pulled the corner of Su Xiao's clothes and signaled him to salute as well.

However, Su Xiao still did not react.

Liu Wushuang frowned slightly, flicked his sleeves, and looked at Lu Meng first.

"Your uncle and grandfather are looking for you, you can go back first."

Lu Meng was a little hesitant, but seeing Liu Wushuang staring at him, he didn't dare to refute, so he had to nod: "Disciple understands." ”

When she turned around three times in one step and gradually walked away, Liu Wushuang slowly walked towards Su Xiao: "Come with me." ”

The two were silent, and soon walked out of a forest near the back mountain.

Suddenly, Liu Wushuang suddenly stopped and turned his head to look at Su Xiao who was following behind him.

"This time, you led the team down the mountain to collect taxes, and those untouchables were still honest when they paid their taxes?"

Hearing this, Su Xiao immediately understood that Liu Wushuang already knew where the 10,000 taels of "tax silver" came from.

Seeing that he was silent, Liu Wushuang sneered contemptuously: "Are those pariahs selling miserably with you?" And then you believed? ”

"Oh, they're all talking nonsense, and they're always saying they're going to starve to death. These guys didn't know that they could contribute to our Cloud Sword Sect with such a lowly character, which was a blessing that they couldn't cultivate in a few lifetimes! ”

"Moreover, this is for the sake of our four countries. What if an inferior ant like them starves to death for the whole family? can make my Cloud Sword Sect's face shine, and it is worth dying as many untouchables as possible! ”

"If you go down the mountain that day, you can directly catch a few of them and chop off their feet! You can definitely get the others to pay obediently! There is no need for such a hassle at all. ”

Su Xiao didn't make any answer, just listened silently.

Liu Wushuang glanced at it again: "What?" Dumb? Do you think I'm not right? ”

“……”

"The sect master is taught."

Su Xiao responded lightly, because he was wearing a mask, Liu Wushuang could only see his eyes.

And those ancient eyes without waves, like an abyss, can't see any emotional fluctuations underneath at all.

It's just that the more indifferent he is, the more strange Liu Wushuang feels, and the suspicions that he had finally diminished before reappeared again for no reason.

"You...... Have you ever been to the waterfall on the other side of the backhill? ”

Su Xiao's tone seemed to be a little stunned.

"Waterfalls? Do we have a waterfall here? ”

Liu Wushuang stared at him closely, as if he wanted to see something flaw in those eyes.

Su Xiao did not shy away from looking directly at him, he knew very well that he must not show any weakness of heart at this moment.

After a long time, Liu Wushuang finally shook his head: "Forget it, it's nothing ......"

The last time he was suddenly grabbed by Liu Wushuang's hand and raised to look at his sleeve, Su Xiao knew that Liu Wushuang must have doubted himself. But suspicion is suspicion, and without evidence, she will not do anything to herself.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a sudden movement came.

Liu Wushuang also noticed the abnormal noise, and just as he was about to follow the sound to look, he heard an angry shout.

"Bitch! Take your life! ”

Immediately, a handful of white powder instantly hit Liu Wushuang.
