Huang Xiao was directly speechless, he knew that the strength of the Demon Phoenix had long surpassed his own now, but he was not quite able to truly confirm the strength of the Demon Phoenix. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

The demon phoenix didn't say it, and he didn't use it with all his might, so Huang Xiao naturally couldn't judge.

However, judging from this period of time and his own tricks, even if the Demon Phoenix has not recovered to the strength of the 'Martial Realm Realm', it can be regarded as a master of the 'Void Martial Realm'.

And because it is a relationship between divine beasts, this strength is definitely a powerful existence in the 'Void Martial Realm'.

With such a master by his side, Huang Xiao is also a little more down-to-earth in his heart, this is not to say that Huang Xiao must want any backing, but he has a trustworthy friend by his side, and his strength is stronger, which is a good thing for everyone.

"Let's go, let's get on our way. Huang Xiao didn't say anything more, put the 'Ming Hong Knife' on his back and left.

The scabbard of the 'Minghong Knife' on Huang Xiao's back has been slightly modified, the width is narrower, and the length is shorter, but this scabbard is still relatively large, and it is more suitable to carry it on the back.

Huang Xiao's appearance has not changed, and speaking of which, Huang Xiao doesn't care too much about whether his identity will be exposed.

As the Demon Phoenix said before, this may be able to force the masked old man to come out, so that he can have the opportunity to explore some of the old man's plans for himself.

Of course, if such a thing is not careful, it will lead to your own death.

Therefore, changing the scabbard, to a certain extent, Huang Xiao was also a little conflicted in his heart, not only wanting to bring out the masked old man because of himself, but also not wanting to anger the old man because of his exposure.

It was really that masked old man that Huang Xiao couldn't see through at all, and he didn't tell himself what he wanted to do, the unknown is always the most fearful.

Traveling all the way, it took Huang Xiao and the Demon Phoenix a month to set foot in the territory of Huangzhou, and there was still half a month left, and the time to reach the 'Imperial City' where the imperial court of Huangzhou was located was enough.

And when he arrived in Huangzhou, Huang Xiao was also a little relieved.

Although it is said that as the period of competition for the list approaches, there are more and more people in the rivers and lakes who have entered Huangzhou, but the fights between those masters have become fewer.

Fights often occur among some people in the rivers and lakes with low martial arts, and the fights of these people are difficult to manage for those masters, and generally 'half-step martial arts realm' rarely do their hands at this time, even if they are in the peerless realm.

They are mainly competing for the rankings now, and now they are in conflict with others, and if there is any accident that causes injury, it will not do any good for the competition.

Masters such as the 'Void Martial Realm' will not make a move at this time, because the major forces have also made an agreement to prohibit these masters from killing during the competition period.

Speaking of which, when Huangzhou competed for the list, it was also a rare period of calm in the rivers and lakes.

Generally speaking, it is limited to Huangzhou, of course, Huangzhou is not safe everywhere, and in some remote places, everyone will not pay too much attention to it, such a ban often refers to the prohibition of killing in or near the Imperial City.

This is a kind of rule recognized by everyone, and it is not impossible to break the rules, in short, there are very few, and the people or sects who break the rules are often sanctioned by other sects, which is the biggest reason to deter those people from doing it recklessly.

"I've finally arrived at a city, and I need to get some rest. Huang Xiao looked at the city in front of him, called 'Chengde City', and listened to these people passing by in the rivers and lakes, this city is not big around Huangzhou, it can only be regarded as average.

But in Huang Xiao's opinion, the walls of this city are taller than most of the big cities that have come all the way before. This had to make Huang Xiao sigh a little, after all, it was Huangzhou, and everything here was logically higher than other states.

Thinking of this, Huang Xiao was a little looking forward to how majestic the imperial city where the imperial court of Huangzhou was located would be.

After a month of rapid travel, Huang Xiao and Demon Phoenix basically did not enter the town to rest in order to hurry.

Now that I am in Huangzhou, I feel that there is enough time, so there is no need to be too anxious.

I went into the city to find an inn and set up an independent courtyard to live in, although this courtyard is not big, but there are still three good guest rooms in it.

There is no room at the entrance to the small courtyard, and there is one opposite the entrance, which is considered to be the main room, and the room covers the largest area, and then there is one on the left and right sides, which is slightly smaller, which is a courtyard similar to a courtyard.

There is also a stone table and four stone benches on the left side of the small courtyard avoiding the entrance, and there is a big tree next to it, which is entwined with unknown climbing vines, and the vines are blooming with pink flowers, which are very dense, dotted with this big tree, adding a lot of color to the environment of the small courtyard, and it is a place for guests to enjoy tea and rest.

Huang Xiao lives here, it's not that he is extravagant or wants to enjoy, originally according to his idea, he can just ask for a good guest room, after all, he is only one person.

Such an independent courtyard is generally for those who travel in a large family or in a group, and he can only say that he lives in one, and the other two are completely wasteful.

It's just that when Huang Xiao came over, the other single rooms were already full, according to the meaning of the innkeeper, due to the influx of people in the rivers and lakes, the inns of all sizes in the city were basically full.

Huang Xiao was not surprised by this, after all, it was the period of competition in Huangzhou, and he also saw enough people in the rivers and lakes gathering towards Huangzhou on the road.

Without those single rooms, even if it is such an independent courtyard, there is only this left, which can be regarded as Huang Xiao's luck, and I am afraid that I can only find other inns if I come later, but most of the other inns are also full, so I can only sleep outside.

The price of this small courtyard is naturally more than ten times more expensive than a single room, and people who are generally out of the house, even if they are people in the rivers and lakes, choose a single room, unless there are many people or the other party is very large, and the wealth will be such a small courtyard.

For Huang Xiao, the silver taels on his body are very sufficient now, the silver and gold tickets brought by the 'Qi Xian Dart Bureau' have not been used up, and he has obtained a lot of gold tickets from Xuan Ju, the inferior steward of the 'Relic Emperor Villa', and it is not a problem to live in such a small courtyard at all.

"Guest officer, it's dinner time now, I don't know if you will go out to eat in front of you or send it here?" Xiao Er, who came over with Huang Xiao, couldn't help but ask after seeing Huang Xiao's satisfaction.

"Oh, I'll just go out to eat by myself then, you can get busy. Huang Xiao said.

Because Huang Xiao is a VIP of the inn, and when dealing with such a character, the service of the shopkeeper is naturally extremely thoughtful.

The back of the inn is a guest room, and in front of it is a restaurant, which not only provides meals for the guests, but also entertains other guests.

A distinguished guest like Huang Xiao, as long as he orders a meal, the inn will make a special one for him and send it over, but Huang Xiao doesn't have this mind.

He was in a hurry this month, and although he met many people from the rivers and lakes who came to Huangzhou, there was no communication. Especially in the previous two months, Huang Xiao has not understood the movements of the rivers and lakes for almost three months. Originally, his sources of information were extremely limited, but now he has hardly received any news for three months, which makes Huang Xiao not know if there have been any influential Jianghu incidents in these three months.

This inn restaurant is not only as simple as accommodation and eating, but also an excellent place to inquire about news.

The main thing is that what Huang Xiao wants to know is just some major events that have happened in the rivers and lakes recently, as long as this matter is influential enough, these people in the rivers and lakes who have eaten and lived in the past will always talk about it.

This is not a secret thing, these people in the rivers and lakes will not keep it secret, and they will still talk about it, so that Huang Xiao can get the news he wants to know without any effort at all.

Therefore, he will go to the restaurant in front of him in person when he waits for dinner.

However, Huang Xiao was not in a hurry, he pushed open the door of the main room, and after seeing the furnishings inside, he couldn't help nodding in his heart.

The furnishings here are obviously a little bit of thought, neither luxurious nor simple, of course, such a house is not comparable to the simplicity anyway, it should be said that these furnishings look relatively ordinary, but this is only the surface, although the workmanship and materials are not the top, but they are also excellent.

In general, the layout of this room is still relatively subtle and introverted, not publicity, which is in line with Huang Xiao's temperament.

Looking around, Huang Xiao's eyes suddenly lit up, and his figure moved to the room.

The demon phoenix fluttered its wings and stopped in the air, looking at Huang Xiao who entered the room with some confusion.

It didn't know what Huang Xiao was excited about, wasn't this just an ordinary room.

Huang Xiao arrived at a wall, and after looking at a long flute hanging on the wall, he couldn't help but reach out and take it off the wall.

Seeing Huang Xiao caressing the flute with both hands, the demon phoenix flew over and said, "What? You still know the flute? Could it be that this flute is so special? Is it a treasure? Is it an ancient flute?"

After seeing that Huang Xiao was very interested in this flute, the demon phoenix felt that this flute might be a little weird, otherwise how could Huang Xiao have such an obvious emotional change.

How could Huang Xiao also be a master of the 'half-step martial arts realm', how could this joy, anger and sorrow be revealed so easily?

Huang Xiao chuckled and said: "You think too much, it's just an ordinary long flute, it's just for decoration, well, the only thing that is commendable is this material, the material is still good." ”

After the Demon Phoenix heard Huang Xiao's explanation, his doubts became even worse: "What are you excited about with such an ordinary long flute, it's really inexplicable? I thought you had found something good." ”

"That's going to disappoint you. Huang Xiao shook his head and smiled bitterly.

After feeling that Huang Xiao's mood was a little low, the demon phoenix couldn't help but be stunned, and said, "Boy, what's the matter with you?

Huang Xiao's expression changed, so that the demon phoenix couldn't figure out what he was for.

"Something comes to mind. Huang Xiao replied.

"What's the matter?" the demon Phoenix asked.

"You don't understand this. Huang Xiao shook his head and smiled, "Let's go, let's go out to eat first, and then listen to what those people are talking about now." ”

The Demon Phoenix was a little baffled by Huang Xiao, but after knowing that this long flute was not something special, it didn't bother to pay attention to it.

Huang Xiao put the flute on the table in the room and left the room.

came to the restaurant in front, Huang Xiao went directly to the second floor, and just next to the window facing the street, a table of guests left after eating, and the shopkeeper hurriedly led Huang Xiao over.

He knew that this was a distinguished guest living in an independent courtyard, so naturally he would not let the distinguished guest wait for a long time.

After Huang Xiao sat down, the shopkeeper hurriedly came over to clean up the table, poured Huang Xiao a cup of tea, handed over a list, and asked, "Guest officer, this is the menu of the restaurant, can you take a look?"

Huang Xiao waved his hand and said, "No need, put three of the good dishes you are good at in the restaurant, and then have a soup." ”

After a pause, Huang Xiao glanced at the demon phoenix that jumped on the table, and then said, "Another good bar." ”

After the shopkeeper hurriedly wrote it down, he asked Huang Xiao to wait for a while and hurriedly went downstairs to prepare.

"This time, the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' is in big trouble, right?" A voice came from Huang Xiao's ears, which came from the people in the rivers and lakes on the second floor.

"Joke, how can there be any trouble? It's just a 'business', even if there are rules in the rivers and lakes, you can't tamper with the 'business', but what is the 'Heavenly Sword Sect', it's the 'Martial Arts Supreme', he just broke the rules, so what?" said one of the people on the side.

"Why can't it be?" The 'Heavenly Sword Sect' is the 'Martial Arts Supreme', so what's the matter?, can the 'Martial Arts Supreme' do whatever he wants, regardless of the rules of the rivers and lakes?" one retorted.

"Alas, three brothers, don't argue, these things are not something that we little people can discuss, drink and drink, don't care what happens to him in the end. The fourth man persuaded.

"Big brother, let's just talk about it, besides, the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' made a fuss about the 'Quartet Firm' some time ago, and the people in the rivers and lakes have almost spread it, can't we let us say it? ”

"This time, the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' suffered a big loss, the 'Quartet Firm' did not arrive, and it is said that many people died, and they were all masters. ”

"It is rumored in the rivers and lakes that a master of the 'half-step martial arts realm' has died, I don't think it's possible, right?"

"How is it impossible, that's the 'Heavenly Sword Sect', isn't it normal for the masters sent to have the strength of the 'Half-Step Martial Realm'?"

"But I've also heard that some masters of the 'Void Martial Realm' have also died. ”

"Can the master of the 'Void Martial Realm' die? Third brother, do you believe this news too? This is obviously made up by those people. ”

......

The conversation between several people made Huang Xiao understand at once, he didn't expect the 'Heavenly Sword Sect' to secretly plot the 'Quartet Firm' to make such a fuss.

At this time, there should be a lot of powerful sect representatives coming to Huangzhou, but I don't know how this 'Martial Arts Supreme' sect will explain to them. (To be continued.) )
