At noon, the sun is in full bloom, and Fancheng is a lively scene.

There is a teahouse on a street in the east of the city, and the plaque on the front of the door reads the word "Talk", and it is quiet inside.

On the right hand side of the teahouse, there is a three-foot-long short table, and in front of the table stands an old man, who is holding a folding fan in his hand, and he keeps talking about something, with the expression on his face, which makes everyone in the teahouse listen with relish.

After a while, I could only hear a burst of applause and applause in the teahouse, and the old man who had told the story before was also smiling and clasping his fists at everyone.

The old man was about to leave after speaking, but a figure came from outside the door. Dressed in black, extremely thin, he looked only sixteen or seventeen years old.

He glanced at the old storyteller and said, "Mr. Chen, the juniors have some things delayed today, so they are late, I don't know if I can talk to the juniors again, and the juniors are willing to pay twice as much silver." After speaking, he bowed to the storyteller.

Seeing this, the storyteller hurriedly stepped forward to hold the young man's hands, slowly lifted them up, and replied, "Where did Young Master Xu say, every time the old man bragged, even if you listened carefully, the reward was also the most, and when I arrived tonight, the old man would talk about it one more time, and there was no need to add money." While speaking, the old storyteller had already returned to the table and made a gesture of invitation to Xu Bing.

This young man is the killer star who took the head of Master Yao before, that is, Xu Bing.

When Xu Bing heard this, he bowed to the old man again, and walked towards the teahouse. A person close to the front row, seeing him coming, also showed a flattering look, got up and gave up the seat. Xu Bing was not surprised at all, smiled faintly at the man, and sat down.

The old man surnamed Chen saw Xu Bing sit down, so he lifted his long sleeves, held the folding fan in his right hand, picked up the waking wood on the table with his left hand and knocked it, and spoke.

It is said that 10,000 years ago, in the far north of the land under our feet, a thunderclap fell from the sky, turning the land there into nothingness, leaving only a tyrannical thunder.

It is said that the thunder was transformed by the immortals of the Heavenly Palace using spells, so it still exists to this day.

After that, the Star Dou Kingdom in the north had a sect called the Thunder Immortal Sect. Some people even say that the sect master of the Thunder Immortal Sect is the reincarnation of the Thunder Immortal of the Heavenly Palace, so he took the name of the Thunder Immortal Sect.

And the Tang Kingdom, far away in the east, its lord is also said to be the reincarnation of an immortal. But these two reincarnated immortals seem to have some grudges, and there was once a big battle in the sky of the Tang Kingdom.

I don't know what kind of scene the immortals' fighting methods were, but it is said that even if we were standing in Qinghe Prefecture at that time, we could see the brilliance of the two immortals' techniques.

Later, the grievances between the immortals somehow spread to the Star Dou Kingdom and the Tang Kingdom, which also caused the two countries to continue to fight for thousands of years. And this war, a few years ago, also seemed to spread to Qinghe Prefecture.

The old man sighed as he spoke, as if he was a little helpless about it.

Xu Bing was originally fascinated by what he heard, but at this time, he suddenly broke off his thoughts and asked, "Mr. Chen, you said that there are really immortals in this world?"

The old man smiled dumbly when he heard this, "There are no immortals in this world, and the old man has never known, and the so-called reincarnation of the immortal is just made up, but the old man has never seen it." After a pause, he spoke again, "But the thunder in the far north seems to be true, and this matter is not made up, but has been passed down from generation to generation, so there is that rumor about the thunder immortal."

Xu Bing had also heard of the legend of the immortal thunder descending from the sky before, but after all, he had only heard of it, even if there were really immortals, how could it be easy to see.

After drinking a few cups of tea, Xu Bing thanked the old man surnamed Chen, and then walked outside.

After a short walk, Xu Bing came to the door of a mansion and looked up, and the plaque of the mansion said "Xu Mansion", which was where Xu Bing lived.

There were two guards in front of the Xu Mansion, and when they saw Xu Bing coming at this moment, they bowed to him at the same time, and said loudly, "Young Master".

Xu Bing nodded to the two, did not stop, and walked in directly.

In this Fancheng, almost everyone in the Xu Mansion knows about it. And with the same status, in addition to the City Lord's Mansion, that is the Zheng Mansion, which is also a branch of the Thorn Spirit Sect.

It is said that the age of the Thorn Spirit Sect cannot be traced, and it seems to have always existed as ancient as the earth under your feet. However, the Assassin Spirit Sect was later divided from the inside, divided into the Assassin Sect, which focused on assassination, and the Spirit Sect, which focused on investigating information.

Xu Tianrong, the master of the Xu Mansion, was the sect master of the Thorn Spirit Sect, and Zheng Linhai, the master of the Zheng Mansion, was the sect master of the other Spirit Sect.

Speaking of Xu Bing, after entering the Xu Mansion, he saw two figures waiting in the front hall at a glance.

One of them was a middle-aged man with a beard that was inches long, and this person was none other than Xu Tianrong, the sect leader of the Thorn Sect.

And next to Xu Tianrong, there was a woman of fourteen or fifteen years old, looking at her appearance, it was Lin'er who shot through Master Yao's head with a bow and arrow when Xu Bing was on a mission.

Seeing Xu Bing coming back, both of them looked at him with smiles.

Xu Bing came to the front in a few steps, bowed to Xu Tianrong slightly, and said, "Dad, I don't know if there is a task to wait for the child here?"

Xu Tianrong shook his head with a smile, and said to Xu Bing, "Now that it's the end of the year, my father won't let you be busy anymore, you said some time ago that you wanted to go back to your hometown to have a look, and it just so happened that Lin'er also wanted to go out for a walk, so you can take her out to have a look." He pointed to the door and said, "I have the horses ready for you, and you can set off at any time."

When Xu Bing heard this, he bowed to Xu Tianrong again, "Thank you Dad, the child will go and prepare." After speaking, she glanced at Lin'er next to her, who knew that she actually stuck out her tongue at Xu Bing and made a playful expression, which showed her cuteness at this age.

Xu Bing was not originally from Fancheng, and he was not surnamed Xu. When he was a child, there was a war in his hometown, and all his family died, leaving only him, a five-year-old child, who was rescued by Xu Tianrong, who passed there, and brought to Fancheng, where he was adopted as a adopted son.

Xu Bing followed his father-in-law Xu Tianrong, and since he was a child, he has been practicing martial arts since he was a child, and he has become the top killer of the Thorn Sect early.

He had a habit of going back to his hometown at the end of each year to see the place where he had been born and his parents, even though he didn't even know where their bodies were.

Xu Bing's hometown is in the northeast of Fancheng, where it meets Nie Cheng. There was a small town there called Yunqiao Town, but Xu Bing was not familiar with that town because it had only been around for less than ten years. The land under that town was what he knew, where his hometown was.

led the horses, took a few ingots of silver, and said goodbye to Xu Tianrong, Xu Bing went out and walked in the direction of Yunqiao Town.

Lin'er was dressed in men's clothes, holding a long sword, like a chivalrous man, and shouted at Xu Bing in front of her, and then quickly chased after her.
