At this time, the East Lake Courtyard outside the city has been lit up, and twelve candles with the thickness of a baby's arm are lit in the glazed pavilion, which is brilliant and magnificent, and even the lake outside the pavilion is reflected with a piece of starry brilliance.

There are only two people in the glazed pavilion, namely Zhang Xueyao with a face and Li Qinglian with a reluctant face.

Although the two are nominally masters and apprentices, but after getting along for so many years, they have long been no different from mother and daughter, Zhang Xueyao has always been ruthless to outsiders, but she is really ruthless to this apprentice who is raised as a daughter, so she has developed Li Qinglian's full eldest lady's temperament.

In the early years, Li Qinglian was still under the burden of reviving the Sword Sect, and she didn't dare to be too slack and presumptuous, but now this burden has been transferred to Xu Beiyou's body, she can be happy, she is good every day, the sword is not practiced much, and the Tao is not much cultivated, occasionally the interest comes, so she helps the senior brothers and sisters to deal with the secular affairs of the Sword Sect, and there is no interest, so she closes the door to study or play around, it just so happens that Zhang Xueyao has some problems with her mood during this time because of the approaching 100-year-old mark, and she has no time to care about her, which makes her really spend a period of time。

However, Li Qinglian's good life has come to an end recently, Zhang Xueyao's mood has gradually stabilized, and then she soon discovered that she is not enterprising, and she has personally mentioned her life these days, which has made her suffer a lot.

This is still the case today, Li Qinglian was forced by Zhang Xueyao to read the entire Qinglian Sword Sutra, but the writing of this sword scripture written by his predecessors was obscure, mixed with too many Taoist terms, which made Li Qinglian dizzy at first, and then drowsy, as if reading a book from heaven.

Li Qinglian secretly looked away from the book and secretly looked at the master.

I saw Zhang Xueyao looking in the direction of Jiangdu in a daze, frowning slightly.

Then I saw Zhang Xueyao's face change suddenly, and she lost her voice and said, "Sword twenty-three?"

The next moment, Zhang Xueyao disappeared, leaving Li Qinglian stunned holding the book and her eyes wide.

In front of the Taoist workshop, Sun Zhihong retreated sharply.

Naturally, he had also heard of the name of Sword Twenty-Three, known as the first in the Thirty-six Syllables, but he didn't believe that Xu Beiyou could still run as good as Shangguan Xianchen while forcibly using Sword Twenty-three, as long as he waited until Xu Beiyou's Sword Twenty-Three was in decline, that moment would be the real line of victory or defeat.

However, what Sun Zhihong could think of, Xu Beiyou naturally thought of it.

Therefore, this sword, Xu Beiyou did not think about any smooth operation, only indomitable without any fancy.

A sword forced Sun Zhihong back hundreds of feet.

In an instant, the two came to the bank of the Qinhuai River.

Almost at the same time, Zhang Xueyao's figure appeared in front of the Dao Art Workshop, standing not far from Wu Yu.

Sword twenty-three, formless and phaseless, Wei Yuanyi and Xu Yi couldn't see the clue at all, they only felt that the two of them disappeared in a flash, but in the eyes of Zhang Xueyao, who came in a hurry, this sword did have a bit of the spirit of a master.

Zhang Xueyao quietly felt the vast sword intent remaining here, and there was a hint of joy in her heart, if Xu Beiyou didn't just stop at the twenty-third sword, but turned the sword intent into sword qi by taking advantage of the situation, and used the twenty-fourth sword along the river, then he really had the three-point demeanor of the master back then.

The world says that the sword sect is thirty-six, and the swords are not the same, but Zhang Xueyao, as a personal disciple of Shangguan Xianchen, is well versed in the mysteries, although each sword has its own mysteries, but its essence is still a set of orderly and step-by-step methods, and a complete set of swords thirty-six is not the same as a single sword.

It's just a pity that Xu Beiyou couldn't use the twenty-four sword, but just this half of the sword made Sun Zhihong suffer a lot, although his body was not damaged, but his soul was greatly injured, and it was difficult to recover after a few years of cultivation.

When the two of them appeared in front of the Taoist Workshop again, Xu Beiyou directly returned the sword to the sheath, and it was difficult to hide his paleness.

Zhang Xueyao glanced at Sun Zhihong, who was also as white as paper, and said coldly: "I'll give you a stick of incense to leave Jiangdu City, otherwise don't be unpredictable." ”

Sun Zhihong guessed the identity of this woman who was not inferior to Wu Yu in an instant, and her already bloodless face turned a little whiter, almost seeing the flesh and blood under the skin, and bowed his head and said, "Yes." ”

But whoever comes out of the palace can not only hold up his head, but also bend down.

Sun Zhihong simply took Xu Yi and Wei Yuanyi and left, as for the two unlucky ghosts who were thrown into the Qinhuai River by Xu Beiyou before, they couldn't care about it.

Zhang Xueyao turned her head to look at Xu Beiyou, Xu Beiyou shook his head and said, "It's not a big deal." ”

Zhang Xueyao said softly: "I'll come to the other courtyard later." ”

Xu Beiyou nodded.

Zhang Xueyao disappeared again.

Xu Beiyou was about to take people away, when he suddenly remembered Feng Lang, who was alone in blocking Xu Yi and his party, and motioned for Wu Yu and his party to go back first, while he turned around and walked towards the somewhat uneasy Sword Pavilion disciple.

When Feng Lang saw Xu Beiyou walking towards him, he suddenly had some guesses, and said cautiously: "Master Xu...... Uncle?"

Xu Beiyou smiled.

Feng Lang hurriedly saluted and said, "Feng Lang has seen the young master. ”

Xu Beiyou stretched out his hand to help him up, patted him on the shoulder again, and said with a smile: "Good job." ”

Feng Lang smiled.

Xu Beiyou's figure disappeared in a flash, and the next moment he appeared in front of the door of the East Lake Courtyard, and then walked all the way through the corridor as if he had entered his own home.

After Xu Beiyou came to Liuli Pavilion, Zhang Xueyao waved his hand and signaled that Li Qinglian could go.

Li Qinglian suddenly felt like she had been pardoned, and left this place without looking back.

Xu Beiyou sat down in Li Qinglian's position before and said, "Why did my mother teach me?"

Zhang Xueyao took out a book of history compiled within the Sword Sect, which recorded the ups and downs of the Sword Sect for more than a thousand years, and said softly: "Throughout the millennium of this sect, there have been two huge changes before the founding of the Great Qi State, and the result is one success and one failure, the first change is that the ancestor of this sect, Shangqing Daojun, betrayed the Daomen and opened a sect on the thirty islands of the East China Sea, and the result was that the Daomen fell for the first time, and he was no longer able to take charge of the cultivation world, and instead the position of the Daomen was replaced by the Western Buddhism, and my Sword Sect also took advantage of the situation to gain a firm foothold in that alternation of Dao and Buddha. That's what it is. ”

"The second change is the era of my master Shangguan Xianchen, the power of the Sword Sect has reached the peak of a thousand years, there is an invitation from the Dazheng Imperial Court, and then there is the support of the Wei Guo and the five great families, so the master also wants to fight for a place in the Central Plains, at that time the Sword Sect can be said to be in all directions, aiming in all directions, but this move is just contrary to the Daomen who are aiming at the millennium rejuvenation plan, the two sides have formed an alliance to fight, ten years of competition, the Sword Sect has been defeated and lost, and only a little 'remnant' lingers. This is called defeat. ”

"At this point, my Sword Sect has fallen into the lowest point in a thousand years, almost on the verge of extinction, and the Daomen who have ascended to the world are confident that they have completely eradicated the Sword Sect, but they don't know that my Sword Sect is downtrodden and can make a comeback, this can be called the third change, Gongsun Zhongmou era, but he is no longer as full of anger and sharpness as the last two times, but chooses the sword box, the sword qi is restrained, but people can hear its sword sound. ”

Xu Beiyou's face became solemn, and he said: "It is precisely because the sound of the sword reached the ears of Emperor Xiao that there was a matter of the master's private meeting with Xiao Maha, the king of Lingwu County, and it also forced Qiu Ye to force his actions even at the cost of damaging the Dao Xing." ”

Zhang Xueyao said softly: "If these changes are regarded as sword strikes, the first two sword strikes of the Sword Sect are rigid, one is a failure, and the next third sword is soft, but with the death of your master, it can already be regarded as a defeat, and it is said that rigidity and softness are combined, I hope you can do the fourth sword, so that the last two swords of our Sword Sect are also a failure." ”

Xu Beiyou was silent for a long time, and said solemnly: "Remember the teachings of my mother. ”
