Six years later

Lilin City, southeast of the Shenzhou Continent

This is a bustling small city, where about 300,000 people live, and there is an endless stream of merchants, farmers, and martial artists who come and go in and out of the city every day, because this is a necessary place to pass through from the northern continent to the Chiyan Sect, one of the seven righteous sects. It is precisely because of such a key geographical location that the small city also has a small number of disciples of the Chiyan Sect stationed here, and the exclusive post hall of the Chiyan Sect is opened for the disciples to rest and change horses.

In a remote alley in this small town.

I saw a little boy with clear eyebrows, but with a long scar on his face, wearing small clothes with multiple patches, holding a sugar gourd in his hand, looking at a little girl squatting on the ground with two small pigtails, wearing a pink robe, and drawing circles with small stones, and said to her disdainfully: "Paint, paint, it's useless for how long you paint, if you don't give it to your relatives, I won't return it to you!"

"Hmph! You take care of me! You rob me of my sugar gourd, I just want to curse you in a circle! I only give my mother a kiss, not give you a kiss! You big villain!" said the little girl angrily. Draw circles over and over again with pebbles harder, while still chanting words in your mouth.

Suddenly, the little boy had an idea, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, forget it, I'll eat it for you this time." But next time you must give me a kiss. Then he grinned, pursed his lips, and quickly brought his face over the little girl.

When the little girl heard this, she was overjoyed, and quickly raised her head: "Really...... Not. After a moment's pause, the little blushing turned into a small apple. Hurriedly moved his head away, and shouted angrily: "Xing Feng, you come again! Lie to me again! You are looking for a fight!" As he spoke, he quickly got up from the ground, threw out the small stone in his hand, and threw it at the little boy.

The little boy had already expected it, and his head turned away, and then he turned around and ran, laughing and laughing: "Haha, didn't you say that you wouldn't kiss me, but you kissed again, shame on your face!" At the same time, he took a bite of the sugar gourd in his hand and said happily: "Haha, after kissing, I feel extra sweet when I eat sugar gourds!"

When the little girl heard this, her face turned even redder to the root of her ears, and she hurriedly chased after her. "Xing Feng, don't run away! If I catch you, you'll die! I still have to tell your father! Let your father beat you!" The little girl was already annoyed and angry at this time. Because Xing Feng had done these embarrassing things to her more than once, but she hadn't let anyone know about it, so she didn't know if she was shy or had something else in mind.

When the little boy heard this, he was shocked, but he still didn't give up: "Go, go, I'm not afraid, whatever you tell whomever you want, anyway, I'm kissing!

"Xing Feng!" Suddenly, a low, familiar voice sounded. The two children were startled, and at the same time stopped and looked ahead.

I saw a figure walking out of the corner of the alley in front of me, wearing a blue-gray shabby shirt, with long hair casually draped behind him, already with a little visible white hair, a stubble on his face, and an empty sleeve on the left, the whole person looked very decadent, and the only thing that could be noticed was the pair of thick black sword eyebrows - Xing Tianyi. At this time, he looked at the little boy with blank eyes.

Xing Feng saw the person clearly: "Dad." Xing Feng shouted timidly, lowered his head, and slowly walked in front of Xing Tianyi.

Xing Tianyi looked down at his son, then raised his head and beckoned to the little girl in the distance, and said gently: "Lan'er, tell your uncle how Feng'er bullied you." ”

The little girl thought of the scene just now, her face turned red again, she trotted in front of Xing Tianyi, looked up at Xing Tianyi, and then looked at Xing Feng next to her, lowered her head, and the two little hands kept pressing each other crampedly, and said, "Uncle Xing, he ...... I...... Actually, it's fine, we're playing on our own. With that, the little girl lowered her head.

Xing Tianyi took a deep look at Xing Feng, sighed in his heart, and said softly to the little girl: "Lan'er, as long as Feng'er bullies you again in the future, just tell Uncle Xing, Uncle Xing will definitely punish him severely." He turned his head to the indifferent Xing Feng and said, "Return the sugar gourd to others." ”

Xing Feng still lowered his head and handed the sugar gourd to the little girl.

The little girl took the sugar gourd, looked at the sugar gourd that had been bitten off on it, her eyes were red, and she hurriedly lowered her head again.

This scene was naturally also seen by Xing Tianyi, he reached out and touched the little girl's head, took out a copper coin from his pocket, and said: "Lan'er, Uncle Xing will give you a copper coin, and I will buy a sugar gourd again." ”

The little girl shook her head lightly and said, "No need, Uncle Xing." It's not early, Lan'er is going home for dinner. Xing Tianyi nodded, and then the little girl turned her head and ran quickly in the direction of home, and when she was about to leave the alley, she glanced back, and then turned around and walked out of the alley.

Xing Tianyi watched the little girl leave, turned around and walked forward. Xing Feng didn't dare to breathe, and lowered his head and followed his father silently.

After walking for about a stick of incense, they came to a simple fence courtyard and pushed open the small gate of the fence. The whole courtyard is in full view, there are several large sieves drying rice, there are a few small wooden benches around, the bamboo poles on the side of the courtyard hang chili peppers, and finally there is a mud-painted earthen wall house in the depths of the courtyard, covered with thatch, and the two wooden doors may be in disrepair, which can no longer be closed. The best in the whole yard turned out to be the window paper, which was not damaged in the slightest, which was amazing.

Xing Tianyi took a bench and looked at Xing Feng: "Say! What good things did you do today!"

Xing Feng lowered his head and said, "No, I didn't do anything. ”

Xing Tianyi frowned slightly, and said lightly: "Still lying, kneel!"

Xing Feng knelt down with a thud, just about to speak. The door of the courtyard was pushed open again, "Tianyi, why are you punishing Feng'er every time I come." The voice was slightly dissatisfied, and then stepped in an old man with a mushroom bag - Ku Wanjun.

Xing Tianyi raised his head and said indifferently: "It's this kid who gets into trouble all day long, and he doesn't stop for a day." ”

Ku Wanjun walked quickly to Xing Feng, helped him up lovingly, carefully patted the dust on his pants, and said: "Children, let alone boys, you plan to cultivate into a young lady who can only play the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, or the weak scholar who has no power to restrain the chicken, not to mention the ...... on him."

Xing Tianyi suddenly interrupted Ku Wanjun's words: "Don't say it, this matter is meaningless!"

"I'm here today to talk to you about this meaningless matter, Feng'er, you haven't eaten yet, grandpa gave you three copper coins, you go to the noodle stall in the west of the city, buy noodles and eat." Ku Wanjun lovingly touched Xing Feng's head.

The noodle stall in the west of the city, as long as every time Ku Wan Wan comes, he will take Xing Feng to eat. Even if he doesn't have time, he will let Xing Feng go by himself.

"Thank you, grandpa. Xing Feng took the money, looked at Xing Tianyi carefully, and found that Xing Tianyi did not react, as if he was amnesty, he quickly ran out of the courtyard and ran towards the west of the city.

"Every time you come, you spoil him, and the child is going to be spoiled by you. Xing Tianyi sighed and said.

"Hmph, the old man has no heirs, and in the past six years, the old man has watched Feng'er grow up, and the old man told you that the old man has long regarded him as the old man's own grandson, and you don't feel the old man's pain! Not to mention that he has a purer blood than you! The old man has great expectations for him! You can't bear to look at his piece of jade, just waste it like this?" Ku Wanjun said anxiously.

Xing Tianyi glanced at Ku Wanjun and said in a low voice: "Needless to say, I said as early as three years ago that I would not let him embark on the road of practicing martial arts, I hope he will live such an ordinary life, marry a wife and have children, and pass on the lineage." Don't be like me and his mother, people can't help themselves in the rivers and lakes!"

Ku Wanjun clenched his fists and said, "How can the old man you said not understand? But this time the old man came to tell you about this matter." Now the situation is getting more complicated and worse. With the strength of the old man, he was about to be unable to suppress the blood knife. The strength of Feng'er's bloodline has exceeded the old man's imagination. ”

"What, can't you use that method?" Xing Tianyi said in shock.

"No, the old man estimates that when Feng'er is seven years old, he will notice something strange, and as he grows older, his qi and blood are vigorous, and the influence of the blood knife on him will become greater and greater, unless you can find someone with deeper skills than the old man to help suppress it, but this is not a long-term solution. If it continues like this, once it can't be suppressed, the consequences will be very serious, and the situation after the outbreak, with Feng'er's mortal body meridians, will not be able to withstand this power, and at that time, ......" Ku Wanjun said worriedly.

The courtyard was silent for a long time, and a light sigh broke the peace, Xing Tianyi looked at the sky and muttered: "Is this really fate?
