Under Xu Yan's palm, he completely restrained his aura before attacking, and truly achieved it like a bat hidden in the dark, quietly, not to mention that the three sect masters of the Danxia Sect were injured first, that is, in his heyday, it was difficult for him to completely dodge the former's attack when he was so close.

A palm smashed the mountain and smashed it down.

The feeling given to the three sect masters was as if a big river appeared out of thin air above his head, and then poured down towards him.

Although at the moment when the other party's aura leaked, he who was infinitely close to the sixth grade, he had already noticed a trace of abnormality, but at this moment, it was extravagant and futile to choose to withdraw and avoid, or it was simply impossible.

A huge handprint finally fell, with a loud bang, and smashed on the three sect masters who were rushing rapidly, not only smashing his whole person into the ground one foot in an instant, but also driving the high wall in the north of the city, all of which trembled violently, and countless mud and dust rolled down from it.

Ignoring the constantly falling mud and dust above his head, Xu Yan slowly landed on the ground, paced towards the three sect masters of the Danxia Sect who had been blasted into the huge palm print deep pit by himself, and then in the darkness, he grabbed the other party's dying neck with one hand, just like carrying a sick cat and hanging it out of the wall hole.

After carrying the other party out of the hole in the wall, with the help of the faint fire shining down from the wall, Xu Yan looked coldly at the second sect master in the distance who had completely rushed out of the city, but at this moment, he had to forcibly stop and stop, and was also staring at him with a resentful look.

In Xu Yan's body, there was no trace of alcohol for a long time, because in the previous wild run, he relied on the martial arts true qi in his body to force all the alcohol out of his body. He was holding the three sect masters of the Danxia Sect who were about to die in one hand, and on the other hand, he said to the middle-aged man in the distance in an indifferent tone: "The person behind the curtain who told me about this, otherwise he will die in front of you immediately." ”

When the second sect master of the Danxia Sect heard this, a trace of despair flashed in his eyes, he looked at the third brother who was strangled by the other party's neck and caused him to roll his eyes, his upper and lower lips kept trembling, if he just looked at his facial expression at the moment, he thought that he couldn't stand the cold feeling brought by the impact of the rain.

The Second Sect Master asked bitterly, "What if I tell the truth?"

Xu Yan heard the other party's question and knew that the other party wanted to ask for a chance to avoid death, so he followed his wishes and replied bluntly: "If you tell the truth, I will let him live, and then let you take him away." ”

Hearing such an answer, under normal circumstances, ordinary people could breathe a sigh of relief in their hearts, but unexpectedly, the second sect master on the other side, who was only the slightest distance away from the darkness, shook his head slowly. In his gloomy eyes, a trace of absolute color flashed, and he said in a cold tone: "But I can't believe you." ”

When Xu Yan heard this answer, his face was not shocked, and he said in a tone without the slightest emotion: "Do you believe me or not, is this important?" ”

After hearing this, the second sect master's face became extremely hideous, he glanced at his third brother with a sad face, but did not answer Xu Yan's words again, but said in a sad tone: "I'm sorry, third brother, one day, the second brother will definitely avenge you and the eldest brother." ”

After Xu Yan heard this, he suddenly felt a little bad in his heart, and then sure enough, he saw the middle-aged man in the distance who had his back to the darkness, but always kept his eyes firmly on him, and his steps slowly began to retreat. There is no doubt that the other party is ruthlessly throwing away his brother's life and choosing to protect himself.

Xu Yan saw that the other party was about to withdraw in the blink of an eye, and couldn't help but raise his sword eyebrows, he didn't expect that these so-called Jianghu people could leave their brothers so easily and leave.

Without the slightest solution, Xu Yan could only throw aside the dying middle-aged man in his hand first, and then began to run wildly towards the darkness. If he just allowed this enemy who came to intercept and kill him to easily get away and leave, it would be tantamount to letting the tiger return to the mountain, and if he couldn't keep the other party in the future, it would bring him unnecessary trouble.

However, just as he had just chased out only a few dozen feet, when he reached the position where the other party had been standing, there was a thin sound in the darkness that was completely different from the rain falling, and it sounded from the night sky.

Xu Yan noticed this voice, his heart was slightly shocked, and at the same time, he was a little helpless, on the premise of not seeing the specific situation clearly, he could only choose to fly out and avoid its edge, and just after being blocked by the other party for such a short time, the breath on the latter's body that was originally in his perception was completely out of the range of his perception.

Cultivators who have been in the rivers and lakes for a long time have the ability and experience to seek survival in desperate situations are undoubtedly better than those who have practiced in the mountains for many years. But the fledgling disciples are too old and spicy, Xu Yan is of course not a fledgling who has just come down the mountain and traveled in the world, but his cultivation is not much different from this guy who fled in a hurry, even if in a one-on-one battle, he has enough confidence to kill the other party, but if the other party has made up his mind from the beginning and only wants to escape with the help of this vast night, then it is impossible for him to catch up and kill the other party.

"Hey!"

Xu Yan sighed a little helplessly, but he could only stop the idea of continuing to chase, in fact, he also knew that the reason why the other party wanted to flee so decisively and quickly was because he was afraid that Lao Qiao in the city would chase him out, and then he really couldn't leave even if he wanted to.

Xu Yan walked back to the three sect masters of the Danxia Sect who were lying in the rain and were about to die, looked at him condescendingly, and did not carry any emotion in his tone, but said calmly: "Did you never think that your brother would leave you and flee alone without even trying at such a moment of life and death?"

The three sect masters of the Danxia Sect were extremely weak at the moment, and they couldn't say a word, they could only keep panting with their eyes wide open, but it was obvious that after hearing Xu Yan say this, his heart was still touched.

Xu Yan's palm destroying the mountain, although it can't be compared with the current old Qiao in terms of power, but the advantage of winning is too huge in his exercises, so he still let the three sect masters be caught off guard, and they were almost beaten to death by his palm.

Xu Yan saw that he wanted to speak, but couldn't open his mouth, so he didn't continue to torture him verbally, but continued to say in a flat tone: "Actually, you don't have to think how surprised this is, this brother of yours just abandoned you, which is all good, unlike some people, who are so pitiful that they died tragically at the hands of their own brothers, and even in the end, he didn't even figure out why the other party wanted to kill him." ”

The Third Sect Master didn't know why Xu Yan said this to him, but the feeling of death became clearer and clearer in his mind.

A stream of light from far to near in the city was rapidly approaching them, Xu Yan's eyes were deep, and then he continued to the three sect masters on the ground: "I know, at this point, you definitely don't want to reveal who your employer is, but do you have any last words to say? Although I may not be able to help you complete it. ”

Xu Yan saw that his eyes were blank and he was lying on the ground silently like a dead dog, so he continued to whisper: "Since this is the case, then I will relieve your pain and send you on your way." ”

Li ...... , Li ......"

Just when Xu Yan squatted down and was about to deal with him, the mouth of the third sect master intermittently spat out a word, but before he could finish speaking, he died with a glare.

The streamer finally fell.

There was no accident that it was Lao Qiao who chased him out of the city, and in his hands, he was still carrying a cold corpse without any breath of life.

Seeing that it was Xu Yan who appeared in front of him at this moment, and glanced at a new corpse lying in the water, a trace of surprise flashed in Lao Qiao's heart, but he immediately felt a burst of relief.

Seeing Lao Qiao's inquiring gaze, Xu Yan, who was wearing a bamboo hat, shrugged his shoulders and replied: "Only this one can be left, and the other one is still run away by him." ”

Old Qiao nodded at this, but he was not surprised, and then he replied: "It's already very good, I didn't expect your strength to improve so quickly, when I saw you a few months ago, you should still be a first-time sword cultivator on the third floor, right?"

Xu Yan replied with a smile: "By chance, I had a breakthrough, and the master also let me go to the mountains to practice for a while. ”

After hearing this, Lao Qiao replied with a smile: "Famous teachers are high apprentices, since you are a personal disciple of Mr. Zhao, it is not surprising that you have such an unexpected result, of course, this is actually a very good thing, after all, only when you have real hard power, can you go further on the road of cultivation, originally before, I was still thinking about whether to send you another distance after you pass Songyang Town, now it seems that there is no need for this." ”

After Xu Yan heard this, he couldn't help but quip: "Old Uncle Qiao also looks loyal and honest on the surface, but in fact he is cunning and abnormal, obviously just thinking that he can be lazy, but he can say so righteously." ”

When Old Joe heard this, he laughed.

However, after falling into a short silence between each other, and after Lao Qiao also lost the smile on his face, he said leisurely: "Actually, it's not that I want to be lazy, in fact, it's better not to send it if I can, the reason why I will shoot in Songyang Town this time is that I don't know that you have grown to this point, and on the other hand, it is also a little unavoidable, after all, no matter what, we also have to symbolically tell some people who make stumbling in the back of their backs, know less about crooked brains, but in the end, whether it has any effect, you can only ask for more blessings." ”

Don't look at Lao Qiao's look of being quite relaxed when he said these words, but Xu Yan knew the power of these things, and immediately nodded solemnly, but he didn't continue to delve into this issue, but just asked, "What should these two corpses do now?"

When Old Qiao heard this question, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

It was undoubtedly an extremely shameful thing for a martial cultivator who had reached the seventh-rank realm to be tricked around by three martial cultivators who were two levels lower than him, and more importantly, not only did he fail to keep all of them in the city, but he was run away by two.

If Xu Yan hadn't helped him in the end, the one that fell in the water would have successfully escaped, right?

Lao Qiao didn't answer Xu Yan verbally, but angrily grabbed the three sect masters who died in the water, and then rushed up to the sky with a corpse in one hand, and disappeared in place in an instant.

About half an hour later, another streamer flashed in the night, and Lao Qiao, who was panting, returned to Xu Yan and said with a slight gasp: "It's been solved." ”

Seeing Xu Yan cast an inquiring look, Lao Qiao raised his feet and walked towards the city, and at the same time explained: "These two bed bugs were not good birds when they were alive, so I threw their corpses into the mountains to feed the wolves, at least after death, they can still feed those beasts." ”

Xu Yan, who was following behind Lao Qiao, heard this, and instantly had a black line on his face.

When the two of them walked to the bottom of the hole in the city wall, Lao Qiao glanced at the huge palm print pit under his feet, which was magnified dozens of times, and couldn't help but gasp, with his current strength, it is not difficult to do this, but if it was placed more than twenty years ago, when he and Xu Yan behind him were about the same cultivation, they couldn't do it to this extent, and the most important thing is that the other party is not a sword cultivator, what is going on with this palm print now?

Old Qiao turned his head and glanced at Xu Yan, and asked in disbelief, "You made this palm print?"

Xu Yan nodded generously in acknowledgement.

This time it was Lao Qiao's turn to have a black line on his face, he couldn't help the curiosity in his heart, and then asked: "But this handprint doesn't look like a sword cultivator can make it......"

Xu Yan's sword and martial arts cultivators, in the major sects of Baishan Ancestor, almost everyone who wants to know now already knows, it is no longer an unspeakable secret, therefore, there is no need for him to hide anything from Lao Qiao, and he replied bluntly: "I am also a martial arts cultivator. ”

Although in Lao Qiao's heart, he roughly guessed that it would be such an answer, but when he really heard from Xu Yan that the other party was a fellow practitioner of sword martial arts, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked for the other party.

After he fell into a long hesitation, he said in a low tone: "Regarding the matter of the Sword Martial Cultivator, in the history of the Five States Continent, it seems that no one has ever succeeded, will it be a little ...... for you to do this" Lao Qiao suddenly paused his tone and changed the topic to Xu Yan and asked, "Does your master know about this?"

Xu Yan nodded with a smile and replied, "Not only my master, but now the people in the major sects of the Hundred Mountains Ancestor should already know." ”

When Old Joe heard him say this, he didn't know what he should say again, so after some words and stops, he finally only sighed softly.

Xu Yan saw that he looked worried, but said in a calm tone: "Let's cultivate like this first, if there is really no way to cross that ravine and solve the problem of not being able to cultivate the sword martial arts in the future, it is not too late to choose one of the two, my master also talked to me about this problem in private before I went down the mountain." ”

When Old Joe heard this, he nodded again, but did not delve further.

Soon, the two returned to the vicinity of the teahouse from the north of the city, but before returning to the teahouse, Lao Qiao suddenly stopped Xu Yan beside him and said: "By the way, I am a cultivator, and please don't tell my son about the little brother of the Xu family, for more than 20 years, he has always felt that I am just a market farmer who can only grow tea, so I don't want him to be affected by my affairs before he goes to Zhongzhou." ”

When Xu Yan heard this request, he frowned and said, "But it's not a way to keep it hidden like this, right?"

Old Qiao smiled and replied: "That's not it, I guess it won't be long before I can tell him in person." Old Qiao paused, then suddenly turned his head to look at Xu Yan again, and said meaningfully: "Maybe that day, it may be related to the little brother of the Xu family." ”

Xu Yan was undoubtedly a little foggy about the latter sentence, but since the other party didn't plan to elaborate, there was no need for him to get to the bottom of it, but after hesitating for a moment, he raised another question in his heart.

Xu Yan asked a little hesitantly: "I don't know if I can ask Uncle Qiao a personal question?"

Lao Qiao replied with a smile: "The little brother of the Xu family said bluntly. ”

Xu Yan saw that he agreed, so he continued to ask, "I don't know what the relationship between Old Uncle Qiao and my master is?"

Seeing that Lao Qiao fell into silence for a while, and looked a little embarrassed, Xu Yan added another sentence and said: "If Uncle Lao Qiao is really inconvenient to disclose, I haven't asked." ”

After hearing this, Lao Qiao shook his head, he took a deep breath, and then replied with a smile: "The little brother of the Xu family only knows that Lao Qiao's surname is Liu, not Qiao." ”

......

Early the next morning.

The weather really began to improve as Old Joe said yesterday, although in the sky, there were still thick clouds floating and swimming, but it was obviously no longer raining as before.

Looking at the extremely dazzling rays of light revealed from time to time from the thick clouds, Xu Yan, who had already finished saying goodbye to Lao Qiao's father and son, thought to himself that when the weather was completely clear, it would probably not take long.

And when Xu Yan and Gu Xueqing followed the main road in the town and came to the north exit of the city, they found that even though it was still the hour of time, many local people had gathered here, and they began to fill the deep pit that was blasted out by him last night.

Interestingly, when Xu Yan and Gu Xueqing were passing by this wall hole, they also heard a bloated person scolding and complaining: "I don't know which one came down from the mountain to fight in this wall hole, causing Lao Tzu to be called by the mayor early in the morning to wipe his butt for this heartless eye." ”

After hearing this, the companion next to him couldn't help but sneer and replied: "Wang Fatty, you can just say a few words, if your words are accidentally heard by the person who left this palm print, look at the more than two hundred catties of fat on your body, you must not be cut off by a catty." ”

When Wang Fatzi heard this threat, he immediately glanced around cautiously, and found that only two very young-looking men and women passed by here at this moment, and he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then his tone was full of disdain, but his voice was obviously more than doubled and replied to the companion: "The cultivator is amazing!"

“......”

After leaving Songyang Town for about twenty miles, Gu Xueqing, who was no longer wearing the clothes of a disciple of the Lotus Sect, asked Xu Yan, "Actually...... That handprint was left by the junior brother, right?"

After Xu Yan heard this, he nodded with a smile and did not choose to deny it.
