() Xiao Tianhe, who bought horses sincerely, was choked by the shopkeeper who sold horses after taking out the silver ingots, and was very dissatisfied, and said in his heart: "I don't blame you for cheating me on my money, but you say that I amuse you, is there any reason for this?"

Unexpectedly, the little brother became more and more annoyed after hearing this, and couldn't help but say, and pushed Xiao Tianhe out of the stable, and closed the door with a "clang". Not only that, after the door was closed, he was still scolding inside, roughly angry that Xiao Tianhe disturbed his rest.

Xiao Tianhe was simply inexplicable, many people on the street were alarmed by the loud sound of the door closing, and they all paid attention, and when they saw that it was the person who knocked on the door before, their eyes were naturally not friendly. They looked at the handful of silver ingots in Xiao Tianhe's arms that they hadn't had time to put away, and they probably guessed a lot, after all, not long ago, before the horse seller welcomed Xiao Tianhe into the door, the question of "Eight hundred baht a horse, do you want it" had already penetrated the ears of many people.

"Hmph, I think he's really so rich, he wants to change horses for a little broken silver, it's just whimsical!" someone in the corner muttered, I don't know if it was intentional, the sound was just controlled so that Xiao Tianhe could hear it.

Xiao Tianhe took back the silver ingot to Meng Zhangjie, and said in his heart: "How come these people who watch the city are some weird guys......" looked left and right, everyone had a cold face, and there was no suitable place to stay, so he simply walked through the streets and alleys and went straight to the north gate of the city.

One of the people resting in the street of the stables put away his tent and left, and the people around him were happy to vacate a vacant space and immediately took possession of it.

Xiao Tianhe couldn't buy a horse sincerely, and he was scolded for no reason, and his heart was definitely not very comfortable. However, he was not a petty man, and his momentary displeasure quickly dissipated after leaving the city. It's just that he was reluctant to give up on the lame horse who only had a "one-sided relationship", presumably because the horse had a gentle temperament and rubbed his head against the palm of his hand.

"Good horse, it's not that I don't want to buy you, it's just that the shopkeeper is weird, and he doesn't even want the silver for nothing, who knows what he wants?" recalled the store's words: "This horse was born a lame horse, just waiting to be raised to kill it for meat", Xiao Tianhe knew that the good horse missed his buyer this time, and I am afraid that sooner or later he will see the life of the king of Hades.

In fact, Xiao Tianhe is not a master who does not eat meat. Although cultivators can open up valleys, it is a great pleasure to taste wine and meat delicacies, so the business of restaurants has been quite prosperous. This time, for some reason, Xiao Tianhe just felt that he had an eye for the big black horse. The more he didn't want to think about it, the more the tame appearance of the big horse lingered in his mind. Thinking of the future fate of the horse, Xiao Tianhe became more and more unbearable, upset, and his pace was much faster. Suddenly, I stumbled under my feet, almost fell, and when I looked back, I unconsciously stepped into a shallow pit on the road.

Thanks to this empty kick, Xiao Tianhe came back to his senses and noticed the strangeness of the situation - he was being followed.

The person who followed didn't expect Xiao Tianhe in front of him to suddenly turn around, and hurriedly hid in the grass on the side of the road and lay down. Although Xiao Tianhe didn't see a human figure, the strange shaking of the grass was glimpsed by his peripheral vision. In the middle of the night, sneaky, presumably the man didn't have any good intentions.

Xiao Tianhe stabilized his mind, pretended not to know, and deliberately scolded, complaining that the shallow pit was "not shallow". As he spoke, he had visually measured the distance from the Watch City, about two or three miles, not far enough.

It was because he was not far enough that the stalker did not act, but hid. Xiao Tianhe also felt that it was not far enough, so he decided to continue to seduce him.

Xiao Tianhe estimated that this person should be one of the overnight sleepers in Overwatch City, in other words, most of them were also participants in this evaluation competition, and their strength should not be much higher. As for the reason for the chase, he couldn't guess.

If it was for the sake of a few hundred taels of silver ingots and stalking others with suspicious intentions, this person's "level" would end there, what money did the demon cultivator care about?

Suddenly, a thunderbolt flashed in Xiao Tianhe's mind, because then again, in the Yuyu Realm, where the people are all cultivators, what is there to care about money? If the person who follows him does not care about money, then presumably the shopkeeper who sells horses will not care, and even all the people who do business will not care. What is the purpose of all the trading in the sky? Could it be that just like the "magic coin" of the Beitang family of the Heavenly Flame Continent, it is artificially given value to a certain item to facilitate its circulation during the exchange of cultivation items? However, the magic coin of the Beitang family itself is made of the precious casting material, Hanyan iron, which itself has a high value for demon cultivators, while gold, silver, and other metals are different, and it seems a little inappropriate to consider it as currency circulation among cultivators.

Now Xiao Tianhe couldn't think of a reasonable explanation for a while, and someone was staring at him behind him. He quickly recounted the entire journey from entering Overwatch to leaving, revealing nothing of the price. "Since he has bad intentions, I'll go with his mind and see what he's going to do. Xiao Tianhe deliberately turned onto a forest path to the west.

Estimating that the distance was almost over, Xiao Tianhe stopped under a big tree. The man also seemed to feel that the time was ripe, and stopped sneaking and tailgating, and appeared.

"In the middle of the night, in the wilderness, Brother Tai doesn't seem to be a good person. Xiao Tianhe was calm.

"Oh, did you bring me here on purpose?" the man masked, deliberately suppressing his voice, his voice strange and harsh.

"It's hard to talk when you're close to the city. Now there are only you and me here, and my brother can speak freely. ”

"Oh, don't pretend to be calm. You're a participant in this Feiyun District Lower-Level Cultivator Evaluation Conference, right? I'll tell you, you're no match for me at all!" the man shouted

Xiao Tianhe smiled lightly, dismissive of his intimidation. With Shi Haoming and Ao Jianwei in the Meng Zhang realm, who else is he afraid of? If he is too close to Shouwang City, he is worried that the fight will cause unnecessary trouble. Since that person had followed him all the way here, Xiao Tianhe could confidently and boldly summon helpers. It just so happened that Ao Jianwei had gone through a series of battles with Shi Haoming, and he was worried that there was no enemy to try his skills!

Seeing Xiao Tianhe's indifferent expression, the man seemed to be a little annoyed: "I warn you, I am a three-talented sword immortal, just like you, ten twisted together is not my opponent!"

"What kind of three-talented sword immortal, stupid sword immortal, I don't understand. Just say what you want to do, and save me time in beating around the bush. Xiao Tianhe waved his hand impatiently.

"Yo ho, a mere primary-level cultivator, how dare you laugh and ridicule after knowing my level?" The man was very surprised, "That's it, as long as you obediently hand over the space magic weapon on your body, I will let you live!"

Xiao Tianhe was stunned when he heard this. What is the origin of this person? Why did he know that he had a space magic weapon? Was it a master he met by chance, or was he sent by General Yong? Did he accidentally reveal a flaw after coming to the Yuyu Realm, or did this person have any special exercises that could sense Meng Zhangpei?

Xiao Tianhe's mind was full of all kinds of questions, but he couldn't admit it at this time, so he had to deny it: "What are you talking nonsense? I'm a beginner cultivator, how can I have any space magic weapons?"

The man's wrist flicked out a blue and faint fairy sword, and sneered: "If you don't have a space magic weapon, can't that big handful of silver ingots come out of the crotch of your pants?

Xiao Tianhe breathed a sigh of relief, looked down at his index finger, how could he have forgotten that he still had a storage ring! Unlike Meng Zhangpei's Tianbao-level magic weapons, even if the storage ring was dripping blood and recognized the owner, it could not be collected in the body, and it had to be worn with him.

In fact, strictly speaking, the storage magic weapon has the only effect, and it cannot improve the strength of the owner, and it has no impact on the battle situation. But one of the biggest benefits of this type of magic weapon is convenience - convenience. Fragmented and messy things, huge things, things with amazing weight, things with huge shapes, things that don't want to be visible, things that can't be seen by people, all of them can be put into the magic weapon. So, with this advantage alone, it makes the storage magic weapon hot. However, the magic weapon of storage is a magic weapon with subspace, which is extremely difficult to refine, so it is precious. Like Liao Qifeng, the green jade ring they gave to Xiao Tianhe is the worst of the magic weapons for storage, and it is actually a magic weapon of the Huabao level, which is the same level as the fake "Golden Phoenix Chaoyang Dagger" given by Marshal Xin. It can even be said that a large part of the rarity of storage magic weapons is artificially inflated, and its price does not fluctuate with the supply relationship in the market, but remains high. This is very different from other types of magic weapons.

It is not easy to refine the storage magic weapon, and it is even more difficult to make it reach the level of being stored in the body, so all the storage magic weapons are made into small objects such as rings, bracelets, chest wear, waist wear, pendants, etc., to facilitate carrying. Anyway, the appearance is no different from ordinary accessories, so you don't have to worry about being recognized.

Xiao Tianhe attracted this person's attention because he accidentally "transformed" a large number of silver ingots on the street.

"It seems that the storage magic weapon is really a good thing!" Xiao Tianhe stood up straight from his back against the trunk of the tree, and showed the brown and yellow magic knife given by General Yong, as if he was in a posture of refusing to obey his orders.

"You kid is simply looking for death!" The man killed him without saying a word, and said in his heart: "This kid is really dizzy, a junior demon cultivator dares to challenge the Sancai Sword Immortal? In the Yuyu Realm, even a three-year-old child knows the difference in strength between the "Primary" and the "Sancai", isn't he a person from the Yuyu Realm?"

Not to mention, Xiao Tianhe is really not a person from the Yuyu realm, and he doesn't know what the "three talents" are all about. After receiving the move, Xiao Tianhe felt that something was wrong, and the opponent's sword move was strong and heavy, not to mention, but it was not at all clever. To put it mildly, in terms of strength alone, Xiao Tianhe is not on the same level as the other party.

Perhaps sensing Xiao Tianhe's timidity, the coveted space magic weapon was at his fingertips, and the man laughed insolently: "What do I have for you, it turns out that I am just talking nonsense." If you don't take the road left for you, it's no wonder that others are on a dead end!" As soon as the words fell, the man suddenly swung a few swords, and taking advantage of the gap between Xiao Tianhe's tired defense, he jumped back and retreated several feet away.

"What is he going to do here?" Xiao Tianhe was puzzled, was he running away? No, it was impossible. Is it to make a killing move? How can you kill when you are so far away? Throwing the sword over it won't help!

Of course, Xiao Tianhe left a back hand, and his back hand was to summon Shi Haoming and Ao Jianwei. Even he has resisted himself for so long, and that "three-talented sword immortal" seems to be nothing more than that. When the three of them joined forces, it would definitely be okay to clean up that person, Xiao Tianhe was even sure that just Shi Haoming alone would be enough for the "stupid sword immortal" to drink a pot.

This was Xiao Tianhe's first battle after he ascended to the Yuyu realm, and the reason why he didn't summon the two to help him was just to see the difference in strength between himself and the other party. As everyone knows, he has fallen into a very dangerous situation.

The man stood upright with the sword in his right hand, and stretched out his left hand to caress the sword body, the fairy sword was shining, and then he flipped and raised his right wrist, as if he was about to cut off with a sword.

"At such a distance, he killed a ghost?" Xiao Tianhe still didn't know why, and stood in place without avoidance.

"Heh, let's die!" The man snorted lightly, swung his sword and fell, and an arc-shaped blue light suddenly flew out from the blade of the sword, shooting straight towards Xiao Tianhe, the speed was as fast as lightning, and with a distance of only a few feet between the two of them, I was afraid that they would not be able to dodge.

It was too late, it was too fast, and at the same time as the masked man slashed out a sword light, it was accompanied by a high-pitched scream: "Beware!

A figure fell from the tree behind Xiao Tianhe, and pushed Xiao Tianhe away with a palm in mid-air, and the man himself bounced to the other side.

The blue light passed through the two of them with an imperceptible whistling, and Xiao Tianhe was still stunned and didn't come back to his senses, until the blue light hit the trunk of the tree, splitting the big tree and the two trees behind him, and then he muttered: "Good, so powerful......"

He was so stunned by the sudden killing move that he forgot to see who was saving him.

The masked man was also taken aback, there was actually a person hiding in the tree, such a remote place, I am afraid it was not a passer-by who met by chance. Thinking that Xiao Tianhe brought him here, combined with Xiao Tianhe's always smelly and hard tone before, the masked man estimated that most of them were in a group.

As soon as there are too many people, it is inconvenient to do this murderous and overselling business, not to mention that the masked man is still worried about whether the rescuer is a powerful master, or if there are other accomplices nearby? Otherwise, it is difficult to explain why Xiao Tianhe is not afraid of him at all, a "three-talented sword immortal".

"Lucky boy, you're in luck!" the masked man said as he slipped into the woods and ran away. But anyone who does evil is like this, as long as he is not caught by others, his life hangs by a thread, and there is no chance of survival except kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy, even if he is timid in his heart and has the idea of retreating, he has to pretend to drop a cruel word before leaving to earn face. To be honest, who is still afraid of him?

In the shadow of the grass, the man turned over and stood up, shook off the dust on his clothes, picked up the hat and belt, looked at Xiao Tianhe, and asked, "Are you okay?"

"Thank you, girl, for the rescue. Xiao Tianhe also stood up and bowed in thanks.

The woman returned the salute and asked, "I just heard from that guy that you are also participating in the Feiyun District Lower-level Cultivator Evaluation Competition, why don't you rest in the Watch City and come to this wilderness instead?"

"There are so many tents in the city, where else is there to stay? I wanted to sleep outside the city, but I stumbled upon someone following me. In order to find out what he wanted, I led him all the way here. I just heard what the girl said, she should also be a participant in the competition, I don't know why she came here, and why she hid in a tree?" Xiao Tianhe asked. Although the other party saved herself, this time and place are very strange, she is still a woman, and she has to make people suspicious.

"I'm just a junior cultivator, and I'm a female streamer, how can I sleep in the wild at will? I had to find a remote place, hide in a tree, and wait until dawn to continue on my journey. I don't want to, I happened to meet someone who wanted to kill people and steal goods. You are really bold, that guy is a 'three-talented sword immortal', you don't even shy away from his sword energy, if I hadn't pushed you, you would have ended up like that big tree. The woman said, pointing to the trunk of the tree that had been cut in half.

Xiao Tianhe scratched his head: "'Sancai Sword Immortal'...... Isn't it amazing?"

"Of course, the two of us together are far from being his opponents. He just ran away because he was a thief, not because he was afraid of me. I think it's better to get out of here quickly, lest he turn his mind and come back to you. ”

Xiao Tianhe nodded, and the two returned to the avenue from the trail together. The road ahead was long, and it was still early in the morning, so they simply returned to the watchful gate, lit a bonfire by the roadside, and sat down around them. This place is within the field of vision of the guards guarding the city, and there is no fear of evil people disturbing it.

The woman took off the hat, and Xiao Tianhe was able to see her appearance: the green silk was coiled, twisted into a bun, and tied with a green belt, as if she was dressed as a man. Looking at the face again, the heavenly court is full, with willow eyebrows and apricot eyes, thin lips slightly pursed, looking shrewd and capable. He was dressed in a silk robe, with a blue belt around his waist, and his wrists and ankles were wrapped in white cloth. With cloth boots on her feet, a bag on her back, and the exposed hat in her hand, she is a heroic woman.

"In Xia Xiao Tianhe, I haven't asked the girl's name yet. ”

"Fan Lingyun. The woman threw a thick branch into the fire, splashing a little spark.

"Do you mean 'Lingyun Zhi'? a good name!" Xiao Tianhe put his hands on the back of his head, lying down on his back, looking at the silent night sky.

"Even if Zhiling is on the clouds, it can't compare to your 'Tianhe' magnificent, heh. By the way, do you know the route to the Zong Piao Realm?" asked Fan Lingyun.

"I have an old map with directions. ”

Fan Lingyun raised his eyebrows: "Great." Don't hide it from Xiao Gongzi, I don't know anything about the Zongpiao Realm, I just follow the others from a distance during the day, and I don't know the specific direction. How about the next road as if you and I walked together? ”

Xiao Tianhe naturally agreed to such a small request, not to mention that Fan Lingyun also had a life-saving grace for him. He still had a lot of questions about the so-called "Three Talented Sword Immortals", so he just asked Fan Lingyun in detail.

"It turns out that you really don't know what the 'Three Talents' mean!" Fan Lingyun looked at Xiao Tianhe in disbelief, and suddenly said lightly, pointing at him and exclaiming, "I saw you show your magic sword before, it can be seen that you are a junior demon cultivator. If you want to participate in the Feiyun District's Lower-Level Cultivator Evaluation Competition, and you don't know anything about the 'Three Talents', could it be that you are the Ascendant of that Demon Clan?"

"Exactly. I didn't think I was so famous?" Xiao Tianhe was very surprised.

"No wonder, no wonder you have a valuable storage magic weapon, it must have been given to you by General Yong, right?" Fan Lingyun looked suddenly enlightened.

Xiao Tianhe shook his head lightly and said, "It was given to me by a few friends from the Xinwang Camp who pooled their money to buy it. ”

"The storage magic weapon is worth a lot of money, which shows that your friendship with those friends is quite deep. When you first ascended to the upper realm, you were able to make such a dear friend, and I really envy you. Fan Lingyun rubbed a small grass at his feet, as if he had something on his mind.

After being silent for a moment, Xiao Tianhe couldn't help but ask again: "Miss Fan, you haven't told me yet, what exactly does 'Sancai Sword Immortal' mean?"

Fan Lingyun came back to his senses, smiled embarrassedly at Xiao Tianhe, and said what he had done.
