Shangguan Feixue and the others were walking on the street after leaving the restaurant, and a group of people suddenly appeared in front of them, the first person was dressed in gorgeous clothes, although his face looked gray and a little weak, but it was still difficult to hide his lofty aura.

"Isn't that Kong Shengyue, the head of the Kong family?"

"Yes, I haven't seen him out of the door of the Confucian Mansion for a few years. ”

"I heard that he was infected with a strange poison and was dying. ”

"Don't be hearsay, you see that he is not very good!"

"Well, you don't look at what he looks like when he is weak, look at the sweat on his head. ”

"It was as if he was going to pick someone up. ”

"Who can let him pick it up himself. ”

"Say no more, just watch. There must be some amazing news in a moment!"

Pedestrians on the street stopped and talked about it.

Kong Shengyue led people to stop in front of Shangguan Feixue and the others.

"Zhao Sihai, why are you back again?" Shangguan Feixue didn't know Kong Shengyue, but at a glance he saw Zhao Sihai who had gone and returned, and couldn't help but ask coldly.

"Don't get me wrong, young man. Zhao Sihai said to Shangguan Feixue with a smile on his face: "The head of the Kong family has always admired the name of Shaoxia for a long time, and I heard that Shaoxia came to Pingzhou Mansion, so I didn't come to greet you in person immediately." ”

Zhao Sihai said, gesturing to Kong Shengyue next to him.

"Oh, this was originally the head of the Kong family, the peerless sword Kong Shengyue, the old man of Kong. Disrespectful, disrespectful. Shangguan Feixue listened to Zhao Sihai's introduction, and immediately smiled and saluted Kong Shengyue.

Shangguan Feixue took the initiative to give a salute, which made Kong Shengyue a little surprised, he didn't expect Shangguan Feixue to be so big-bellied, and he didn't hold a grudge against his son's recklessness when he was in the Song Mansion.

Kong Shengyue hurriedly saluted Shangguan Feixue back, and said with a smile: "I have heard the name of Shangguan Shaoxia for a long time, and I admire it very much. Today, I heard that the young man came to Pingzhou, and for fear that the subordinates would snub the young man, the old man came to invite him in person. I don't know if the young man can appreciate his face and go to my house to talk about it?"

Kong Shengyue's words were sincere, sincere, courteous, and thoughtful, and he showed extra respect for Shangguan Feixue in his words, which made Shangguan Feixue have no excuse even if he wanted to refuse.

"Senior Kong is polite. When I first arrived in Pingzhou Mansion, I didn't have time to go to your house in a hurry to pay a visit, but I was ashamed to let you come to me first. Shangguan Feixue smiled and politely greeted Kong Shengyue.

"So, the young man can appreciate the old man's face?" Kong Shengyue looked happy.

"The seniors laughed, and the seniors were invited by the seniors, and the juniors were honored. Shangguan Feixue replied.

After a brief greeting, everyone came to the Confucian Mansion.

Although Kong Shengyue was a little curious about Xiao He's appearance, he didn't seem to be very concerned, because for him, Xiao He was just an outdated martial arts person, not to mention that people who were only good at light skills would not be particularly helpful to their Kong family.

Kong Shengyue has a strong purpose in doing things, everything needs to be related to his own purpose, and he will not spend more energy on irrelevant things.

After the guests and hosts sat down, Kong Shengyue opened his mouth first.

"Shangguan Shaoxia, I don't know what you are doing when you come to Pingzhou Mansion this time, is there a place where our Kong family can serve?" Kong Shengyue asked Shangguan Feixue.

Of course, Shangguan Feixue would not tell Kong Shengyue the purpose of their trip, but said lightly to Kong Shengyue: "I understand the kindness of my predecessors. But we really don't have anything to do, that is, to go to Pingzhou casually. ”

"Oh, I thought Shaoxia was here for the martial arts conference?" Kong Shengyue saw that Shangguan Feixue didn't mention the matter of the martial arts conference, so he took the initiative to lead it up.

"Martial Arts Conference? I really don't know much about this, does Senior Kong know? Tell us about it. Shangguan Feixue asked Kong Shengyue with a pretended confused smile.

"Since Shangguan Shaoxia doesn't know about this, then I'll tell you what I know. Kong Shengyue cleared his throat and continued, "That's right, because the Supreme Sect has been rampant in the rivers and lakes in recent years, successively annexing more than a dozen gangs of different sizes such as the Poison Gate, the Sea Shark Gang, the Giant Lion State, and the Flying Tiger Gate, and exterminating the Changqing Gang, Tianhumen, Xingcheng Faction, Tiger Roaring Heights, Jiangnan Li Family, Northern Yunnan Daomen and other well-recognized famous and decent families in the rivers and lakes that do not obey their commands. Therefore, several of our martial arts families have joined forces, planning to be led by the Lin family, recruit martial arts righteous people, and recruit a martial arts conference, at which time everyone will jointly elect a person with strong martial arts and both ability and political integrity, and lead everyone to resist the Supreme Sect together. ”

"I see. Shangguan Feixue nodded.

"Now the news of the martial arts conference has not been officially announced, this month on the fifteenth, we will be officially issued by the Lin family to the various sects of martial arts, and it is expected that the conference will be officially held in three months. Kong Shengyue continued.

"That is to say, the day of the martial arts conference is still far away. Shangguan Feixue said with a smile.

"You can't say that. Kong Shengyue waved his hand and said: "Huaxia is vast, and there are some distant places, even if you go to our Pingzhou Mansion after receiving the news, I'm afraid it will take a few months." In this way, there is not a lot of time. ”

Kong Shengyue is right, in the past era, people mainly relied on walking, and those with some money did not necessarily have horses, and various conditions on the road were changeable, so the speed of walking was very slow, just like we often know to enter Beijing to catch the exam, often some students set off half a year in advance.

"Since it is for the Supreme Sect, then during this time, the people of the Supreme Sect will definitely know the news. Will they come to Pingzhou to make trouble?" Shangguan Feixue said the doubts in his heart.

"Of course we took that into account. Therefore, we quietly released some news first, informing some well-known figures and sects in the martial arts to come to Pingzhou Mansion first, just in case. That's why I just asked you if you were coming to the martial arts conference. Kong Shengyue replied.

"Senior Kong, I heard that the Lin family has begun to decline since the death of the old predecessors of Lin Yunshan in the Eight Desolations of the Town, and your Kong family has become more and more famous since you walked the rivers and lakes with a long sword, why didn't the recruiter of this martial arts conference be booked in your Kong family?" Shangguan Feixue asked again.

"Well...... Kong Shengyue paused, and said with a slightly embarrassed face: "I can't hide it, if I hadn't been poisoned, I would have been the one who recruited it." But, alas!" Kong Shengyue didn't say any more, and sighed.
