Qi flowed slowly through his body, seemingly unstoppable like a great river, but in fact it seemed to encounter certain obstacles from time to time, and in those leaf-vein-like routes were hindered, and this stagnation brought pain and a certain extreme discomfort in his state of mind, causing him to frown slightly and his face to be a little pale.

After all, it's a matter of mood. When Uncle Xiao walked the world with a sword, how could there be an unfeasible road before the donkey's head, how could there be a battleworthy enemy before his eyes, his mind was wild and proud, so he was strong, so he could cultivate the worldly qi in his chest and abdomen, and do things in the world, and Xu Chen's current state of mind is depressed and sad, unwilling to be silent, and he can't even indulge in presumptuousness, where can he carry the breath of majesty?

The great general who lived in the general's mansion was about to give up all the military power in his hands in the near future, resign and return to old age, and in the eyes of everyone in the world, he had paid a terrible price for what he had done over the years, and had suffered enough damage.

But Xu Chen doesn't think so.

Xu Chen didn't want Ximen Wang to grow old safely, and as time passed, no one cared about what that person had done before, forgetting them in a corner of the red dust, and letting them grow old safely and then grow old happily.

That's his unwillingness.

It is precisely because of his unwillingness and clarity of his mind that the qi in his body will awaken and his realm will be improved, but it is still because this unwillingness has always stayed in his spiritual world, so the qi has never been able to run smoothly, and there are always some stumbling and jerky.

He looked at the cornices of the General's Mansion in the distance, as well as the remnants of snow on the eaves, smelled the smell of green onions from the houses on both sides of the streets, and was silent - the depression in the mood can be expressed, the sorrow can be eliminated, and the unwillingness in the spiritual world needs to be erased, but how can this unwillingness be erased?

To erase this unwillingness, it is necessary to kill Simon Wang, but ...... The senior brother has made it clear that as long as Ximen Wang is willing to return to old age, those who promise not to interfere in the iron law of government affairs will remain silent, and without evidence, they will believe in the first empire, and they will not punish Ximen Wang in any way.

So the only way left for Xu Chen was to challenge Ximen Wang and have a head-on duel.

The senior brother said that after five years, Xu Chen could defeat Ximen Wang, but ...... Five years is really too long, what if Simon Wang is really old? What if he is sick? What if he dies of old age and illness before he defeats him? Cultivating ascetic skills in the mountains and wanting revenge, when he leaves the mountain, the enemy is either white-headed or has already died, and time executes the punishment for himself, then isn't that the most sad thing in the world?

Xu Chen knew that he had some emotional problems at this time, and it would not help his cultivation but would cause great obstacles, if he allowed this unwilling emotion to develop, he was afraid that his entire spirit would fall into the devil.

He knew that he had to do something at this time to temporarily dissipate the demonic intent in his state of mind, he knew that his current strength was still weak, and he was not qualified to challenge Ximen Wang, but whether it was the qi in the body meridians that were difficult and difficult to move forward, or the sadness and bitterness were urging him to do something.

Standing silently for a long time under the shadow of the winter trees in the alley, looking at the lackluster scenery in Wuxian Town, smelling the smell of meat wafting from every house, he remembered the letters that Xiao Heizi wrote back then, and walked towards the north of the city.

As soon as he lifted his step, there was a soft pop under his feet, and the thick dust that had accumulated around his shoes dispersed, drifted into the air, and then landed quietly on the wall under the tree.

The ash cleared, revealing a clean bluestone slab.

Two finger-deep footprints appeared on the bluestone slab, and the edges were neat and smooth, as if they had been carved out with a knife.

Xu Chen walked in the cold wind of Wuxian Town, he clearly noticed that his strength had changed significantly from the original, and his feelings were much sharper than before, the rhythm of his body when walking was very clear, the earthy force of the soles of his shoes was like a drumbeat, and the skin on the back of his hands exposed outside his sleeves could even detect the finest traces of wind flow.

The transformation of his body by Qi had an effect in a very short period of time, and this indescribably powerful feeling gave him a strong desire to prove this power, and at the same time, the thoughts and reluctance that had been under the shadow of the tree before became some irrepressible impulse.

The strong urge to destroy everything and the sense of duty conflicted so strongly that he was never sure whether he wanted to do it or not, until he reached the mansion in the north of the city, and the clear and steady rhythm of his footsteps finally calmed him down and understood what he was going to do.

Deep in the Winter Garden of the General's Palace.

Duanmu Rong looked at the senior brother behind the desk and said softly, "Xu Chen is in a bad mood today. ”

The senior brother put down the book in his hand, looked at the girl and smiled gently, and said comfortingly, "What are you worried about?"

Duanmu Rong was silent for a moment and then said, "I feel as if he is going to do something." ”

The elder brother said, "Do whatever you want." ”

Duanmu Rong looked at Senior Brother and asked, "Aren't you worried about anything, Senior Brother?"

Senior Brother said with emotion: "Those disciples, most of them are idiots like me who only know how to practice or specialize in one thing, only the little junior brother has been struggling desperately in the world since he was a child, so in some ways he is the strongest person, he has his own judgment on things like danger, and I trust his judgment." ”

Duanmu Rong looked into his eyes and said seriously, "Even if this matter will cause you trouble?"

After being silent for a moment, Senior Brother said seriously: "It's not as powerful and peerless as Little Senior Brother imagined, but I think Little Senior Brother always has his reasons for doing things, and I also believe in his judgment when it comes to things like opportunities." ”

In the side alley of the mansion in the north of Wuxian Town.

Xu Chen looked at the gray high mansion wall and decided to go in and take a look no matter what.

As the elder brother said, he is a person who is very alert to danger, and he also has a very clear judgment of such things as opportunities, and he rarely misses them.

Killing people in Wuxian Town, just waiting to kill people in front of Ximen Wang, sounds a little unbelievable.

Today was his best chance.

Because Simon Wang decided to return to old age today, he is old - an old lion, he will always be negligent in his inspection of his own territory, and I believe that the anger afterwards is easier to dissolve.

Xu Chen walked under the gray mansion wall, his knees slightly bent.

The powerful qi in his body was instantly poured into his legs.

There was a murky thud between the shoe and the ground, and an invisible stream of air splattered out.

Like a big bird, he jumped up two feet with ease and climbed over the high wall of the mansion.

Where you settle down, there is a fading flower garden.

In front of the flower garden is a courtyard.

There is a pine chair in the courtyard on which a man sits.

Ximen Wang's most trusted military advisor, Xi Fan.

Xi Fan looked at Xu Chen in the flower garden and said with emotion: "I have been hesitating to kill you, so you came." ”

Xu Chen pulled out the thorns in front of him, walked out of the flower garden, stood among the smooth stone lawns in the courtyard, looked at Xi Fan in the chair, and asked, "I don't seem to have offended you, why did you kill me?"

Xi Fan slowly stood up from the canopy, looked at him and said with a smile: "There are many things in this world that need a reason, and killing is of course no exception, but people like us kill people differently from cutting off the heads of prisoners in the imperial court, and it doesn't necessarily mean that you want to offend me, the reason why I want to kill you is just because in my opinion, you should die." ”

Xu Chen slowly and seriously began to roll up his sleeves, looked at Xi Fan not far away, and asked calmly: "I really don't know what reason I should die, and I still ask the military advisor for advice." ”

The expression on Xi Fan's face was a little weird, his smile was mixed with some wonderful yin feelings, a few short beards trembled slightly in the cold wind, he looked at Xu Chen and smiled: "There are many people you killed." ”

Xu Chen's fingers as he rolled his sleeves paused slightly, shook his head and said, "I don't know." ”

Xi Fan leaned back with a smile, gave a thumbs up and praised sincerely: "Mr. Xiao kills people without leaving a trace, even if he tells a lie, his face does not change, you really shouldn't go to practice and should stand on top of the court, but ......"

With the word "However", the smile on his face suddenly disappeared, and he was extremely cold: "Although I haven't found any evidence, you already have a reason to die." ”

"Killing a person requires not only a reason, but also a benefit. Xu Chen began to roll up the sleeve on his right arm, bowed his head and said, "I can't think of anything, as General Ximen Wang's most trusted subordinate, what benefits can you bring to you or General Ximen Wang by killing me in Wuxian Town." ”

Leaving the capital and entering the wasteland until returning is often to use this identity to oppress the other party, but the situation is different today.

He really couldn't understand that Xi Fan was determined to kill himself, wasn't the other party worried that the anger of Feiyun Dao and the empire after the incident would directly burn himself and his loyal General Ximen Wang directly to ashes?

Xi Fan stroked his beard lightly and said slowly: "Naturally, if you take a great risk, you will naturally get great benefits, and the biggest benefit is that you will never threaten the general again." ”

Xu Chen rolled up the sleeve of his right arm, and his fists hung down on the side of his leg to feel the chill of the winter wind.

He looked at Xi Fan and shook his head and said, "This kind of benefit is far from enough. ”

Xi Fan suddenly narrowed his eyes and said with emotion: "What am I following the general for half my life? In order for the general to stand on the pinnacle of the world, the general will be forced to return to old age...... Wouldn't I have to grow old with me, do you think I can endure this kind of thing?"

He looked at Xu Chen's face, his eyes were cold and with a hint of madness that came out of nowhere, and said quietly: "The general wants to return to old age, but I really don't want him to return to old age, but unfortunately I am not qualified to overturn the agreement between him and Mr. Big, so if you want to destroy this matter, what other way do you have besides killing Mr. Xiao? God is always so merciful, it seems that the most suitable ending is to die." ”

Xu Chen realized at this time that this military advisor turned out to be a madman, his brows slowly furrowed, and he shook his head and said: "But have you thought about it, killing my Ximen Wang will not end well, everyone in the world knows that you are his most loyal dog, who would believe that this is your own opinion?"

Xi Fan gently put his palms together, sighed softly with some excitement, and said: "So this is the best time, Mr. Xiao, you are so weak, and the world knows that Mr. Big has never killed anyone in his life, so after I kill you, I can still live, then I will always live, even if I live like a dog, until I live in the capital, live to the court and even in front of the master, and carry this matter for the general." ”

Hearing the other party say that the senior brother had never killed anyone in his life, Xu Chen was slightly stunned, and immediately remembered the gentle demeanor of the senior brother on weekdays, thinking that it was about true, and listening to the second half of the other party's words, he couldn't help but laugh slightly, and said: "Although I don't want to boast, but just by virtue of your identity, you want to bear the charge of killing me, it's really wishful thinking." ”

Xi Fan shook his head and said with emotion: "As long as I live, I will tell the world"

Xi Fan suddenly squinted his eyes and said with emotion: "What did I follow the general for half my life......? Wouldn't I have to grow old with me, do you think I can endure this kind of thing?"
