When he opened his eyes, he felt that the true qi was pouring into the dantian like a river, silent and introverted, without looking at himself in the bronze mirror, Zi Jing knew that his eyes must be dim at this moment, and there was no trace of the disappearance of martial arts, if it weren't for the martial arts sect's mental method with such characteristics, he would not have stayed in Yueyang Tower for so long without anyone discovering that he had martial arts. Feeling that the injury was completely healed, and with the power of self-preservation, Zijing was relieved, but after this relaxation, she realized that the air in this wooden house was really not very good. For half a month, in addition to waking up twice and going out to eat and drink, he almost spent time in this wooden house, there was a layer of dust on the ground, tables and chairs, in a place with fresh air like Dongting Lake, if it hadn't been cleaned up for so long, there would never have been so much dust. What's more, there is still the bruise that he vomited when he was injured at the beginning of the wooden house, the stains that have turned black still exude a faint smell of blood, mixed with the smell of sweat, this wooden house with almost no air circulation, it is absolutely unbearable. Especially for Zijing, although he had a worse experience in the first two years, but at that time he was confused and had no feeling at all, in the years when he had memory, he had always been clothed and fed, how could he have been in such a situation, frowning, he almost immediately rushed out of the door. As soon as the thought was born, the true qi that was already silent was like a sudden rekindling of the flame, instantly swept the meridians around the body, the qi was like a nine-curved bead, flowing like a river rolling, and the body turned into a faint phantom, soaring out of the wooden house, crossing the sky, almost a breath and a breath, had swept over a distance of more than 100 zhang, and threw into the vast lake.

By the time he got out of the water, his hair was already in a mess, and his long black and shiny hair was scattered over his shoulders, adding a bit of brilliance to his delicate countenance. After a while, Zi Jing broke out of the water, his body was like a dragon out of the water, and he slapped his backhand on the surface of the lake, stirring up monstrous waves, but his body shot towards the reef island with the power of counterattack.

At this time, the door of another wooden house opened, Pingyan's indifferent gaze fell on Zijing, stretched out his hand and threw a package in front of him, Pingyan said coldly: "There are clothes inside, and dry food, you have a day off, tomorrow is the period when you and I fight, what do you think?"

Zi Jing bowed and said: "The girl's martial arts should be above Zi Jing, this battle is not the girl's request, Zi Jing will also go all out, and can fight with the descendants of Cuihu, all disciples of the Martial Arts Sect will never miss the prevarication." ”

Ping Yan smiled faintly, and said: "This battle requires life and death, I know that the Martial Dao Sect has a lot of kung fu to escape for his life, can you promise that I will not escape halfway." ”

Zijing's deep phoenix eyes instantly burst into a dazzling coldness, staring at Pingyan's face as cold as snow, and said lightly but resolutely: "You saved my life, I should naturally repay it, tomorrow's battle, I will definitely go all out, but although Zijing's life is humble, there are still people who can't give up, so I can't make a decision between life and death, please forgive me." ”

A trace of anger flashed in Pingyan's eyes, and he said coldly: "The road of martial arts, it is very lonely, how can you have a lot of concerns, if you have the heart of cowardice, this battle will have been lost, that is, you will not lose, from now on, your heart will be entangled, and there will be no more entry into the martial arts, if you are really so timid, it will also be in vain I have delayed so much time, I knew that this is the case, I might as well go to find Shuangjue, since they are willing to die and fight with Zishuang, they want to have more backbone than you." ”

Zi Jing smiled slightly, looked at the distant sky, looked at Pingyan for a long time, and said calmly: "Master once said that although the martial arts of all factions in the world have their own strengths, but those who can lead the group are only Cuihu and my martial arts sect, and the director of my sect is to absorb the essence of all families and turn it into its own use, and the foundation is in a Bo word, and although Cuihu also has an arsenal of martial arts in the world, it focuses on the excellence of the heart of the sect, and the foundation is in a special word. The way of martial arts, different paths to the same end, it is difficult to distinguish Xuanzhong, so the dispute between you and me has lasted for more than 400 years. Fang driving martial arts cultivation is above Yan Zishuang, presumably it must be a candidate for the son of this generation, Zijing does not dare to be arrogant, although the master is not the sect master of the martial arts sect, but Zijing has not heard of the same siblings, so the battle between you and me is the decision of the two sects, but although this battle is imperative, but it can not be hastily done, my martial arts have not yet been perfected, but Miss Ping is already in the sky, if it is a life and death decision today, I will most likely be defeated and die, life and death are small, if someone thinks that this sect lost to Cuihu, Zi Jingquan has no face to see the ancestors of the past dynasties, so this time I will definitely not fight to the death。 If Miss Ping really wants to decide the winner with Zijing, then you might as well wait for me for ten years, and then the girl doesn't want to fight to the death, but I'm afraid that Zijing won't show mercy. ”

Pingyan looked at Zijing steadily, at this moment this young man was calm and calm, his eyes flashed with the light of wisdom, no longer a teenager who did not understand the world, Pingyan suddenly had a realization in his heart, in order to determine his judgment, she said coldly: "There is nothing wrong with waiting for ten years, but since it is rare to meet, if you can't fight heartily, wouldn't you live up to this great opportunity, Zijing should know that martial arts have reached the realm of you and me, if you can fight with an evenly matched opponent, it is better than several years of hard work." However, the number of victories and defeats may not have been decided, so why not take a risk for Zijing. ”

The cold light in Zijing's eyes flickered, and at this moment he no longer regarded this woman as a like-minded confidant, and said coldly: " I originally thought that Miss Ping was also a fellow traveler who was determined to be martial arts and not stained with vulgarity, but I didn't think that Miss Ping still couldn't throw away the constraints of Cuihu after all, and my mother once said that although Cuihu nominally does not restrain the disciple's choice, but how can the kindness of the teacher for many years be thrown lightly, so after all, it will still live up to the kindness for the benefit of Cuihu, and now it seems that it is true, since Miss Ping will definitely want Zijing's life, then she will give up her life to accompany her. ”

Ping Yan sighed lightly in his heart, this young man's wisdom is indeed extraordinary, but his performance in dealing with the world is very immature, the difference in intelligence between martial arts and mundane affairs is by no means normal, it seems that his guess is really good, the lord of Huofeng County must have deliberately isolated this young man from the outside world, and painstakingly taught him to be like this, in addition to martial arts, most of this young man has not received more teaching, not to mention the military strategy of the Lord of Huofeng, in this way, this young man will definitely not be able to become the opponent of Luo Chengyu, the son of King Yan, to dominate the world, if it is really as he expected, then the lord of Huofeng County is really the first ninja in the world。

Now that he has confirmed his judgment, Pingyan no longer pressed step by step, and sighed lightly: " The factional dispute in the Cuihu Gate, although few people know, but Lingtang and the respected teacher are very people, naturally know that the dispute between the birth and the WTO in my door, the first suzerain of Cuihu was the princess of the Han Dynasty, but it is a pity that he was jealous, and he was in danger, and in a rage, he left the palace to travel the world, and when he was forty years old, he saw through the world, and he chose Cuihu to live in seclusion, which was a golden branch and jade leaf, but became a hermit in the mountains, her old man was once involved in the rebellion of the Seven Kings, and the war in the world was eliminated, but in the twilight of life, he was born to practice, and he often sighed about the things of the past years, and seemed to have regret. Therefore, some disciples of later generations think that they should enter the world to practice and accumulate 100,000 merits before they can become enlightened, and some think that the rise and fall of the world is impermanent, not by the master, so they should be born to practice, even if they are in the three thousand red dust, they should also be like an ancient well, without waves, if they have the heart of accumulating merits, even if they help the poor, it is also a helpless road. Such a disagreement was not obvious at the beginning, but after several generations, it was already like fire and water, but fortunately, the sect master at that time was wise and decisive, and changed the way of inheritance in the sect, so as to avoid the civil strife and strife in Cuihu. ”

Listening to her eloquently, although Zijing didn't understand why Ping Yan's attitude suddenly eased up, but although he didn't hate Cui Hu, because of the Martial Arts Sect, he regarded Cui Hu as a hostile party, so it was very important to have a deep understanding of Cui Hu, and everything Ping Yan said was a secret that outsiders would never know, so he had no intention of interrupting Ping Yan's words at all.

Ping Yan's gaze seemed to look into the unknowable distance, through the heavy cloud mountain, as if she had returned to Cuihu again, she paused for a moment, and continued: "The law in the door, when the sect master is alive, other disciples of the same generation cannot stay in Cuihu, if there is a disciple, you can send it to Cuihu before the age of ten, no matter who recommends it, this disciple must worship under the sect master, in order to be called the disciple of Cuihu, and the person who recommends it is called "guide". At the time of entry, these disciples have a solid foundation, and they can only practice separately in the door, and no one has specially taught, the Jingshui Book Pavilion is open to all disciples, as long as they cultivate to the corresponding realm, they can read all the martial arts classics, that is, the first two volumes of the highest martial arts "Taiyin Sword Sutra" can also be read at will, but if the cultivation is not deep, most of them are harmful and useless, so they need to pass the permission of the prison pavilion. The prison pavilion is served by the sect master's previous generation of teachers, if there is any doubt in the heart, in addition to asking the sect master for advice, you can also ask them for advice.

In addition to the sect master and the sect, the disciples of Cuihu have no constraints after leaving the school, as long as they do not commit the heinous crimes, they can do whatever they want, but most of the disciples of this sect have only two choices, one is to enter the WTO, help the poor, protect the country and the people, and act like Zishuang, the other is to be born and practice, do not ask about the world, just like me Pingyan, and some disciples, and finally chose to go out of the pavilion to marry, and since then they have been cut off from Cuihu, but most of them will return to Cuihu in the end, whether they are born or enter the WTO, but except for the son, these people can only return to Cuihu in the twilight of their lives。

The choice of the sect is not decided by the sect master alone, but by the disciples of the sect master's predecessors, the choice of the born disciple, if you can get a glimpse of the martial arts to the realm, it is possible to become the son of the sect, the choice of the disciple who entered the world, it depends on the merits accumulated, once the son of the sect is chosen, the other disciples will leave the green lake one after another, and the time when the son of the sect succeeds to the throne is the last time limit. Shizun became the son of the sect because of the Luoyang Alliance, and officially inherited the position of the sect master twelve years ago.

Although this inheritance method often has an unpredictable ending, but it has maintained the glory of Cuihu for hundreds of years, so it has always continued, the dispute between the sect and the son of this generation, I am one of them, some things can not be left out of the matter after all, Zijing don't think that I will be embarrassed with you, if I let you go lightly today, then there is no hope for the position of the sect master. ”

Zi Jing sneered: "Since Miss Ping knows that the road of martial arts is tortuous and long, and she can't worry much, why should she still be attached to the position of the sect master, maybe she still has the idea of power and fame in her heart, if so, don't mention the word 'martial arts' again." ”

Pingyan said lightly: "The position of the sect master, although it is extremely noble, but in my heart it is also ordinary, just the Taiyin Sword Sutra The last volume can only be read by the sect master, if I can't be the suzerain, then I can only return to Cuihu after the death of the senior sister who became the son of this generation, and study the last volume of the Sword Sutra, Ping Yan only has martial arts in his heart, and he really doesn't want to delay this for a long time, although I chose to be born, but Zijing Your identity is too special, Your Royal Highness Yang Ning, the son of the first emperor and the lord of Huofeng County, the only candidate who can inherit the bloodline of the Youji Xu family, your identity, who can not be tempted, if the master knows your identity, he will never let you be left behind, and you and I will still inevitably fight。 ”

Zi Jing's body trembled slightly, his complexion gradually changed, and the cold and silent murderous aura that gradually overflowed from his body made the heaven and earth a solemn killing, Rao was Pingyan's cultivation, and he also felt as if he was in the ice and snow, Pingyan was a little strange at first, Zijing didn't think that he already knew his identity, if so, it would be too stupid, but when they met their eyes, they saw Zijing's deep and silent phoenix eyes change, from surprise to enlightenment, from grief to dead silence, but in an instant, those eyes were like a silent night sky, as if they had lost all their brilliance, Pingyan almost gave birth to an illusion, and Fang Cai's brilliant eyes were not owned by Zijing。 Maybe Zijing didn't think of it, but he was just deceiving himself, it seems that his life experience is the most difficult pain for him to face.

I don't know how long it took, Zi Jing said coldly: "There is no Yang Ning in the world, only a homeless Zi Jing, whether it is Luoyang or Youji, their affairs have nothing to do with me." ”

A trace of sadness flashed in Ping Yan's eyes, and said: "Is it really irrelevant, the prince of Yan Wang is the son of the county, and the king of Yan is your grandfather, even though you have never set foot in the territory of Youji, but you have always been connected to the bloodline of Youji, not to mention that when today's son is your half-brother, whether you admit it or not, you are in the bloodline of two families, but the court and Youji are incompatible, as long as your whereabouts and identity are leaked out, you will never get peace again." ”

Zi Jing said coldly: "Even if this is the case, what can I do, I am alone, I can turn to the world, whoever wants to make it difficult to use me, I will kill him first, not to mention that since you are a born person, why do you want to get involved in this matter, the battle between you and me, if it is for the sake of martial arts, it is understandable, if it is for these things that are fighting for power and profit, it is okay not to fight." ”

Ping Yan's eyes showed a strange meaning, revealing a rare hesitation, and only after a while did he say: "Zijing, your identity is too sensitive, so there are many people in the world who want to use you, but there are few people who dare to kill you, if the Yang family and the Tang family kill you, Youji can use this excuse to raise troops to fight, if Youji kills you, it will inevitably be internally unstable, if other princes kill you, once the matter is revealed, you will have to face the questioning of both sides, whether it is the court or Youji, will not miss this opportunity to exclude dissidents."

Today's world is like a salary next to the fire, just a little spark will be out of control, and your existence will destroy the balance of the world, once you are robbed and killed, I am afraid that the world will immediately be full of swords, such a result is by no means happy to see Cuihu, whether it is Shizun or sister Zishuang, will not be willing to see such a result, so they will never let Zijing you leave the world, not to mention that although you have no intention of power, but you can't change your origin, whether it is Youji or the royal family, you are the best chess piece, such a chess piece, no one will be willing to let go gently, so the world is big, you are thorns step by step, nowhere to go, and the only one who can shelter you and not make the heroes feel jealous is Cuihu. ”

Zi Jing sneered, and said proudly: "How can I be the one who needs shelter, besides, I am really desperate, at most I will die, if I really accept the protection of Cuihu, wouldn't I lose the face of my mother and master, when do the disciples of the Martial Arts Sect need help from outsiders?"

Pingyan had already anticipated his reaction, and said lightly: "I know you must think so, but Shizun must not let you get away with the world, after all, your existence makes there are too many variables in the world, or at the beginning, Shizun just wanted to arrest Zijing and you under house arrest, but you are strong and resolute, and you will never be arrested, in the end, Shizun will definitely move to kill, but in this world, who can kill you and justifiably, except for me Pingyan, there is no one else." The Demon Gate and Cuihu have been hostile for many years, and among them, the rivalry between the Cuihu Birth Line and your Martial Arts Sect is the most open, and both sides are fighting each other for the pursuit of martial arts, not so much enemies, but opponents. Whether it is Cuihu or the Demon Gate, they all see the battle between us very openly, and there is no complaint about life and death. Since you are the descendant of the Martial Arts Sect, then I Pingyan in the Green Lake is your destined opponent. The life-and-death duel between you and me is a matter of course, and no one can say anything, even if your father and the Lord of Huofeng are still alive, even if I kill you in the duel, they can only watch from the sidelines. Such an upright opportunity, the master will never let go.

His Royal Highness Yang Ning is a disciple of the Hidden Emperor, a descendant of the Martial Arts Sect, this secret was originally known only to the sect master and me in the Green Lake, although the master has announced his retreat, and will not personally interfere in the affairs of the world, but there is bound to be a way to hint at the secret of the purple frost sister. Once the senior sister has confirmed your identity, she will never give up using this relationship between you and me, rather than the battle between you and me being dominated by those conspiracies and tricks in the future, it is better to fight to the death today, so as not to be involuntary in the future. What you said is right, if you wait another ten years, the decisive battle between you and me will be able to distinguish the real superiority, but I'm afraid that we don't have that time to wait, so I will try to make the duel fairer, since you are the son of the Fire Phoenix County Lord, I don't think you will avoid the war. Looking at Zijing, who was stiff, she stabbed out a sword that sealed her throat, and said coldly: "Tomorrow morning, if you dare to fight with me, wait here, if you don't have the guts, then the battle between you and me has been decided, from now on, you will not have the opportunity to challenge me, if you think that you will not tarnish the prestige of the Lingtang Lingshi, you will leave." ”

Before the words were extinguished, Pingyan's figure had already walked into the wooden house, the moment the door opened, Zi Jing clearly saw the dusty and empty scene inside, there were countless faint sword marks and messy graphics on the wall, the wooden door slowly closed, Zi Jing retracted his gaze, he didn't have much interest in Pingyan's practice room. He just thought carefully about Pingyan's words, although Pingyan had already spoken in great detail, but after more than ten years of locking up in the deep palace, Zijing had no clear understanding of his identity at all, and it was even more difficult to understand why his existence would affect so many people, but he still understood Pingyan's intentions, it seems that this battle is inevitable, although some regrets came too early, but since he has promised a battle, he can't retreat from the battle.

I was thinking hard about how to have a better chance of winning, but Zi Jing suddenly felt extremely hungry, except for the water and wild fruits for many days, I didn't eat at all, and I didn't feel it, but when I relaxed, I felt that the skin all over my body seemed to be trembling, and the pain in my abdomen was even hotter, and I hurriedly opened the package, only to see that there was a bag of fine dry food inside, Zijing was almost gobbling it up, and after a while, she ate it cleanly, rubbed her stomach with satisfaction, and picked up the clothes inside, but it was a set of snow-white brocade clothes, not only well-made, but also gorgeous in style, in addition to the inner and outer clothes, there was also a pair of cyan cloth boots, and a silver crown of hair, Zi quietly changed his clothes, only felt that everything fit, and he was very grateful to Ping Yan for bothering so much, but he looked at the silver crown in a daze for a moment, but he didn't start curling his hair.

When he was in the palace that day, his clothes and accessories were served by special people, until he left Luoyang in a daze, he was almost unkempt all the year round. But even though Qingping taught him for a long time, he didn't learn to curl his own hair, and he was often so angry that Qingping scolded him for being stupid, but almost every time he saw Zijing, he would pull him to his side to tie his hair, which is also the reason why Zijing was very close to Qingping, although for Qingping, most of them treated him as an ignorant younger brother, but Zijing couldn't tell the difference, but he felt extra warm, looking at the silver crown of his hair at the moment, Zijing's first thought in his heart was to think of Qingping.

When he left Tingtao Pavilion that day, he knew that he was seriously injured, worried that there was no way to return to Qixingwu, and was worried that Shuangjue, who had not healed from his injuries, would meet enemies, so he had to entrust them to Luo Chengyu, although he was extremely resentful of Luo Chengyu in his heart, but it was only a short meeting, but he already felt that the person had a similar temperament to his mother, but a little more tolerant and a little less majestic, so he made such a decision. It's just that at this moment, Zi Jing has an incomparable sense of remorse in his heart, these many times, presumably Qingping and Sister Luqi have been picked up by him, if so, wouldn't he never see them again, thinking of this, he couldn't help but stand up, flew towards the center of the lake, and couldn't help but look up to the sky while flying, and the howling sound was like a dragon chanting in the depths, endless, which was full of resentment, which made people only feel surging and thrilling after hearing it.

In the wooden house, Ping Yan, who was originally sitting upright, opened his eyes, carefully listened to the howling sound of the young man gradually moving away, and repeated cold flashes flashed in his eyes, even with her cultivation, she also felt that her heart was shaken, the disciple of the Hidden Emperor of the Martial Arts Sect, the son of the Lord of the Fire Phoenix County, was really unusual, but he wanted to destroy such a young talent, and Ping Yan also had a faint sense of guilt in his heart.

In fact, Ping Yan's words today, in addition to pointing out Zijing's situation, the greater purpose is to make Zijing have the idea that he is never his opponent, so that Zijing will inevitably be tied in a battle tomorrow, and he can win under the absolute advantage, so that Zijing's confidence and courage can be truly hit.

For Yan Zishuang, if she learned Zijing's true identity, she might only think that Zijing's threat was his identity as His Ninth Highness, but in Pingyan's opinion, without this identity, Zijing was still the most dangerous existence. Seeing his unscrupulous assassination of Luo Chengyu, he knew that this young man had no thoughts of good and evil in his heart, and he had good and evil in his thoughts, but he had extremely high martial arts, which was enough to make him dominate the world and be free. In such a turbulent situation, Zi Jing alone is enough to set off a monstrous wave, and what makes Ping Yan feel even more dangerous is that Zi Jing is definitely not a person who can be restrained. If you talk about martial arts cultivation, there are not a few people in the world who are better than Zijing, at least he is one of them, but whether it is the four great masters or other top masters, they often have their own positions and constraints, that is, Pingyan, who prides himself on not caring about the world, if someone really makes trouble for Cuihu, but he can't stay out of it, only Zijing is alone, he can ignore the constraints and coercion of any force and do whatever he wants. Unrestrained force is like a flood that breaks through the embankment, and the destructive power can be imagined. Under such circumstances, Zijing's final result can be imagined, and it will be intolerable to the world.

But in Ping Yan's heart, she didn't want this young man to encounter accidents, firstly, the opponent was difficult to find, and she cherished each other, but secondly, it was for the Fire Phoenix County Lord, in Ping Yan's heart, the Fire Phoenix County Lord was a more admirable person than the master, she didn't want the only bit of the Fire Phoenix County Lord's bone and blood star to fall into trouble, and she didn't want to be the one who held the knife. The only solution is to completely crack down on this fledgling teenager, so that Zijing's demons will not be eliminated within ten or eight years, and with fear and pressure, Zijing's behavior will be traceable, so that the princes of the world will not feel that he is a huge threat, and Zijing's life can be guaranteed.

Although such an idea is also forcibly against Zi Jing's own wishes to some extent, but if he himself is trapped by the demons, he can't blame others, if Zi Jing leaves like this and never comes back, or it is more in line with his own expectations, Ping Yan thought indifferently, but she understands that no matter what, Zi Jing will not give up in this battle tomorrow, so let yourself add the final blow and let the shadow of defeat hang over this young man's heart.
