Cang Yun sneered: "There is one person who is indeed like this, and he is innocent of death, but the other person has never thought of betraying the Sword Sect, just wants to live a stable life, but he is still dead, is this also wrong?"

Zhang Yuping said expressionlessly: "If you don't want to go to the Daomen, you can, just say it in advance, in this kind of thing, the Sword Sect will never be reluctant." But if you want to regret it after going to the Daomen, then there is no such reason, the stakes are very high, and the Sword Sect cannot tolerate such a reason. ”

Cangyun picked up the chopsticks again and said slowly: "If it weren't for me being accepted as a disciple by the master, I'm afraid I would have died, died silently, and died unexplained." Over the years, I have been very curious, the Sword Sect has weakened to the point, why is it still capable of killing people in the Dao Gate, and it can still hide from the sight of the Demon Suppression Palace, from this point of view, even when the Sword Sect was at its peak, it was difficult to do it. ”

Zhang Yuping smiled playfully, " This is not right, the Sword Sect and the Daomen are a family, in fact, many people on both sides are betting on their own, just like Xiao Shen back then, the Sword Sect returned to the Sword Sect when it was strong, and the Daomen returned to the Daomen when it was strong, and at the same time the two sides planted nails into each other, but the previous Daomen was very cautious and cautious, and combed the interior with the Shen Punishment Division and the Demon Suppression Palace, and did not dare to say that the water did not enter, but it was difficult for us to make a difference, until in recent years, the Daomen has become more and more powerful, to put it nicely, it is the world's talents into my hub, to put it mildly, that is, the rivers and the mud and sand are both down, and the fish and dragons are mixed, and at the same time, the Demon Suppression Hall will be extremely miserable, only caring about the outside and not caring about the inside, not to mention the Sword Sect that is not as good as the past, but gives us an opportunity to take advantage of. ”

Cangyun took another bite of rice with chopsticks and said softly, "I see." ”

Zhang Yuping smiled, pointed to Li Shentong beside him, and said, "Getting back to the point, you must have guessed that this is our sect master's founding disciple Li Shentong." ”

Cangyun swallowed the rice in his mouth and narrowed his eyes, "Sect Master?"

Li Shentong believed that he had a master by his side, and he was not afraid of this Daomen real person at all, and snorted coldly.

Zhang Yuping was not angry, and said softly: "Don't you know? The young master stepped into the realm of the eighteenth floor of the Earth Immortal, gave way on behalf of the sect master, and the young master has become the sect master of the Sword Sect. ”

Cangyun was noncommittal, looked at Xu Beiyou, who had never spoken, and said slowly: "Then what is the identity of this person?"

Xu Beiyou finally spoke: "I am from the imperial court. ”

I: The only u genuine!, its x (he "are all c \ thief 3# version K

Cangyun was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly he was stunned. Before, he saw that this person had a good demeanor, either a hidden monk of the Earth Immortal Realm, or a person who had been in the top position for a long time, which made him a little curious, although he had not been in the Sword Sect for a long time, but he didn't remember that there was such a person, you must know that today's Sword Sect is not the previous Sword Sect, and the real masters are so few, all of them are people with names and surnames, not as profound as the Daomen, and I don't know where there is a great real person who lives in seclusion.

But since he is a member of the court, it makes sense. After all, the Great Qi court is the co-lord of the world, and its profound heritage is not inferior to the Daomen, which can be seen from the fact that the three generations of emperors are invincible people in the world. If there are any masters in the Great Qi court who have not made a move, it is both expected and reasonable.

Cang Yun pushed the empty bowl in front of him forward and muttered, "The Sword Sect really got on the big ship of the imperial court. ”

Xu Beiyou frowned slightly and asked, "Do you have a prejudice against the imperial court?"

Cang Yun didn't answer this question, and asked rhetorically: "Since you are a member of the imperial court, then you should know that if it weren't for Xiao Yu's action back then, the Sword Sect Patriarch Shangguan Xianchen would not have fallen on the bank of the river, and if it weren't for the common enemy Dao Sect, the Sword Sect would not have joined forces with the imperial court." ”

Xu Beiyou said with emotion: "The death of the Great Sword Immortal back then had its own position, life and death were fate, and there was no grudge, but what really made the Sword Sect unrecoverable was the Daomen. ”

Cangyun raised his head suddenly, and looked directly at Xu Beiyou without avoidance.

Xu Beiyou was silent for a moment, and said calmly: "Zhang Yuping, go and ask for a pot of wine." ”

Zhang Yuping immediately got up and left, and after a while, she took a jar of wine and two sea bowls from the counter, "The wine here is sold in pots, only in forums, and the Huadiao wine that has been cellared for three years is okay." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded and motioned for her to put the wine jar and sea bowl on the table.

Then Xu Beiyou personally patted the mud seal of the wine jar, poured a bowl for Cangyun, and said slowly: "You have eaten the rice of the Sword Sect, are you willing to drink my bowl of wine?"

Xu Beiyou didn't say anything about the wine of the imperial court, nor did he say the wine of the Sword Sect, it was just his own wine.

Cangyun stared at Xu Beiyou and didn't speak for a long time.

Xu Beiyou turned a blind eye, poured himself another bowl, and then took it up and drank it all.

Ever since Master left, he has broken his drinking vows and has been unscrupulous.

After a long time, Cangyun said word by word: "Who are you?"

Since he sat down, Xu Beiyou has not said anything cruel, and occasionally he is calm, far inferior to Zhang Yuping's hidden needle, but Cangyun is not afraid of Zhang Yuping at all, but he does not dare to take Xu Beiyou, who does not speak much, too lightly, the more high, the more noble, the less words are much, because their words are more weighty and more expensive, the so-called words are golden, but so.

It was only at this moment that Cang Yun suddenly realized that among the three people in this line, the person at the head was not Zhang Xueyao's henchman Zhang Yuping, nor Xu Beiyou's disciple Li Shentong, but this middle-aged man with gray temples.

Xu Beiyou said softly: "My surname is Xu, my double name is Beiyou, and I am the emperor's son-in-law of the imperial court and the fifteenth generation of the Sword Sect. ”

Cang Yun's heart was suddenly shocked.

He never expected that Xu Beiyou would come to see him in person.

Although he was quite disdainful of Xu Beiyou, he had to admit in his heart that the two were no longer equal people, and it was almost the same when they were replaced by their own master Qiuye.

Cangyun didn't speak, Xu Beiyou said to himself: "As early as twenty years ago, you were favored by the master, and after careful training, you chose the opportunity to send it to the Daomen, originally a disciple of the outer sect, and later by chance, you were favored by the head of the Daoist sect Qiuye, and accepted as the tenth disciple, and gave the Dao name Cangyun, so I should call you a senior brother." ”

After being silent for a long time, Cang Yun sneered: "I can't afford to be Sect Master Xu's senior brother. ”

Xu Beiyou said: "You entered the Sword Sect earlier than me, and your qualifications are also better, do you think that the master did not hand over the twelve swords of the Sword Sect to you, so you are dissatisfied?"

Cang Yun took a deep breath and said slowly: "There is nothing to be dissatisfied with, I have already figured out one thing, if you want to compete with the Dao Sect, you must join forces with the imperial court, so the next heir of the Sword Sect needs to be a person in the imperial court." In the officialdom, stepping on the low and praising the high is the norm, but playing idle chess and burning the cold stove is also a profound knowledge, so the old sect master chose you, the first time he met you, it was to burn the cold stove of Han Ge Lao, and it was also a step of idle chess on you, and the fact was as expected by the old sect master, Han Ge Lao returned to the temple in the 20th year of Chengping, and the cold stove became a hot stove, and your idle chess has become the key to today's pivotality. ”

Xu Beiyou was silent.

Cang Yun smiled and said with emotion: "I don't have a biological father who is a relative of the country, nor do I have an adoptive father who ascends to the Pavilion, how could the old sect master hand over the twelve swords of the Sword Sect to me?"

Xu Beiyou was indifferent to the faint sarcasm in this sentence, and said flatly: "I have a greater opportunity than you, but I also carry a heavier burden than you, I don't want to justify anything, I only ask you now, do you drink this bowl of wine or not?"
