Chapter 13: Gu Sheng

The middle-aged woman laughed.

"It's not funny. ”

She smiled and looked at the coachman.

The scar on her face was a sword wound, which looked very shallow, but because of the tearing of the sword qi and the splashing of the strength, it had removed a lot of skin, and even cut off a lot of flesh and skin that could grow back together.

In addition, for some reason, in addition to this sword wound, there were many shallow scars intertwined, and it looked like someone had repeatedly scratched her face with a sharp blade.

It's not funny for her to say this now, but she laughs, and when she laughs, the many scars on her face are involved, like an extraordinarily vicious flower, blooming with countless negative emotions, so it feels extraordinarily violent and hideous.

A real unruly force has fallen on the body of the driver on the front of the car, the former yellow-robed messenger of Jiaodong County, the man who followed Zheng Sleeve from Jiaodong County to Changling knew that he would be torn into countless pieces of flesh and blood by this power at any time, but his smile was very calm, with a hint of the bleakness of the winter sun.

"It's a very bad joke. ”

He looked directly at the middle-aged woman and said slowly and seriously: "But that's exactly the case, although you and Zheng Sleeve are sisters, but that person came to cut off your face, but it was out of her provocation. ”

The middle-aged woman's smile vanished.

She looked at the man with a condescending gaze, as if looking at an ant indifferently.

All the creatures around this path seemed to have fled in fear, and there was a dead silence.

Pan Ruoye's face became more and more pale.

She looked at the shocking scar on her master's face and wondered what the master would do if what the man said was true.

The middle-aged woman seemed to take a moment to think about a lot of things clearly, and then said indifferently: "When he came to me to compete with the sword, he and Zheng Sleeve had not yet met. ”

"What you're saying is the truth. ”

The man on the front of the car nodded, and continued, "You haven't even met, but to her, you're already a threat. You are the royal family of the Chen State, although the Chen State no longer exists, but your identity and status, including the forces behind it, is no less than the daughter of the old powerful gate valve family in Changling, and the most important thing is that the daughter of those old powerful gate valve families in Changling, at that time, no one had such a sword cultivation talent and posture as you. ”

The middle-aged woman's eyes flashed with a strange luster, like the brilliance brought to her by some kind of memory, and she also said strangely: "But I have a very bad temper and character. ”

For some people, a short temper can be seen as jealousy and hatred, and as straightforwardness. The man at the front of the car said, "Especially for those who are unruly in their own right, this may become an attraction." ”

After a pause, he continued: "Geniuses are often not ordinary people, and they will have a lot of differences. ”

Countless dust rose from the ground.

The middle-aged woman suddenly sneered violently, and the robe on her body hunted, "So you mean that when Zheng Sleeve just arrived in Changling, or before she arrived in Changling and met me, she already thought that I might be her opponent?"

The man on the front of the car said respectfully and seriously: "That's true." ”

Then before the middle-aged woman continued to speak, he added, "You don't know her upbringing in Jiaodong County, so you can't understand it." ”

The middle-aged woman's eyes narrowed slightly, and she just asked directly: "Why did you betray her?" In Changling, even if you are her slave, your actual status is probably no less than those leaders. ”

"So you have such questions, just because you don't know Jiaodong County, her upbringing and her family. ”

The man on the front of the car took a deep breath and said slowly, "If you don't understand this, I can't explain it clearly." ”

"You'd better speak quickly. The middle-aged woman said indifferently: "I don't have much patience. ”

"Jiaodong County is also an old gatekeeper, but the king of the foreign king got up, and he has never been able to rank among Changling, although he has strength, he has been excluded, and in the eyes of those old magnates in Changling, I am afraid that he is just a countryman. Jiaodong County itself is well aware of this. ”

The man on the front of the car nodded and said, "If strength and status are not proportional, it will naturally breed deformed ambitions... The idea of Jiaodong County is not only to be among the Changling Gate Valves, but to be able to completely overwhelm those old gate valve magnates who once looked down on Jiaodong County and ridiculed Jiaodong County. It's just that just as the rise of Bashan Sword Field depends on a few characters who defy the sky after all, the rise of Jiaodong County still needs people like Zheng Sleeve after all. ”

"Jiaodong County's generation is very lucky, you only know that the Zheng family has produced such a highly talented cultivation genius as her, but you don't know that it is not one. ”

"Her generation, plus those from the side room, has a total of four extremely talented cultivation geniuses. ”

"It took fifteen years for Jiaodong County, and what it finally did was to raise a Zheng Sleeve like a Gu. ”

"Now the people of Changling, including the whole world, say that she is ruthless, but if you know how she left Jiaodong County alive, you will naturally understand that if she can't be so ruthless... It wasn't her who left Jiaodong County to come to Changling. ”

......

The middle-aged woman's brows furrowed slightly.

Pan Ruoye's breathing couldn't help but become short, she couldn't help but look at the man on the front of the car, and said, "You mean, she actually has several brothers and sisters with equally amazing talents, but her family forced them to practice like cannibalism, and in the end, the rest of them all died, leaving her alone?"

"Some died directly at her hands, and some did not die directly at her hands, but they were not much different. ”

The man on the front of the car looked at her and nodded, and then said, "When the elders of her family used various extreme methods to select a person who could enter Changling, they also taught them how to choose their subordinates and how to control the loyalty of their subordinates. ”

"Control the loyalty of your subordinates?" Pan Ruoye couldn't help but repeat this sentence, she felt that this sentence was very awkward.

The man on the front of the car said: "Because in her opinion, there is nothing between her subordinates and her that can be trusted and unchanging, so even loyalty is control in her eyes." For her, her family is one of the most important means of control. So what she did in order to get a subordinate who was capable enough to be loyal to her was to kill my old family and then try to give me a new one. ”

Pan Ruoye's breath paused, and suddenly thought of a possibility, and she was speechless for a while.

The man on the front of the car slowly continued, "When I wasn't even a cultivator, I was just an ordinary scholar, and then when I was traveling with my family, I encountered a rogue, and my whole family was killed, and I was the only one who was saved by her family. Later, years later, I woke up from a nightmare with the woman I loved, and I had a new family. It's just that she didn't expect that when I arrived in Changling many years later, because of a trivial matter, I finally found out that the rogues who killed my family back then, including my new family, were only arranged by her. My new family is nothing more than her deployment. ”

Speaking of this, the man on the front of the car laughed gloomily, looked at Pan Ruoye, and his voice was lower, "You may not believe it, at that time, in order to complete the studies assigned by her family, she was looking for a subordinate like me and sent someone to kill my family, she was only seven years old... It's just a seven-year-old kid who can do something like that. ”
