Chapter 21 An old friend's visit

Outside Jiulin City, there is wind and snow.

Although it is only November now, Jiulin City is an important town on the northwest border, located in a bitter and cold place, and the weather has long turned cold.

Most of the passengers from the Central Plains in the south could not adapt to this climate. The soldiers guarding the southern city gate often enjoyed their fun by mocking the thinness of the southerners.

At this time, two more passengers arrived, one man and one woman, two young men, wearing quite thin clothes, but were not troubled by the severe cold at all.

The young man was wearing a brocade robe and holding a golden folding fan in his hand. He looked like a noble man from a family trip, but the girl beside him was taciturn and wrapped in a black robe.

The young man from Jinlang looked up at the city sign of Jiulin City, and smiled and said to the girl beside him, "Miss Ye, Jiulin has arrived. Why not let me find some friends to come here to welcome the girl?"

The girl frowned slightly and said impatience: "Young Master Du, let's do the serious business first. If you are letting that person escape, it will be difficult to find him."

Mr. Du laughed for a while, nodded and said, "I don't know what people think, Yunshui Zhong Temple? Haha, are you afraid that others can't find him?"

The two of them walked into the city quickly as they said something that others couldn't understand.

...

Jiulin City is located in the northwest. Due to geographical reasons, the four major sects have weak influence here, and there are many large and small sects inside and outside the main city.

Lingyun Sect is one of such sects. Since the death of the leader of the sect, the entire sect has been getting worse and worse. The older generation of acquired warriors either died or left, and gradually there were only three or two kittens and dogs left.

Until the past two years, Lingyun Sect has no acquired martial artists at all. Zhang Wen, a young sect leader who is over 20, has just completed the true energy overflowing and is barely considered a quasi-acquired martial artist.

In this situation, the Lingyun Sect could only support Zhang Wen and his sister Zhang Qiluo, so that they were not forced to take over the family business.

But just a month ago, I don’t know what luck was going on with Lingyun Sect, but a peerless warrior became the guest minister in the Sect.

The guest official named Zhongsi arrived in Jiulin City a month ago. He visited various major sects for seven consecutive days and challenged all the strong men. He actually failed from beginning to end and became famous.

According to insiders, Zhongsi was invincible in his practice, and ordinary swords were not close to him. He also had his body skills, grasping and boxing skills.

Apart from not using weapons, he is almost an all-round warrior.

At the same time, the Zhongshui Hero claimed to be from Yunshui Villa, so after seven consecutive days of challenges, the name of "Yunshui Zhongshui" resounded throughout Jiulin City.

The warriors in this northwest border town couldn't help but sigh that the Central Plains is worthy of being the origin of martial arts. Yunshui Villa not only has Xu Wenjing, but also Si Tuxing and other martial arts rookies. Any disciple came out, but he actually had such martial arts skills...

No matter what, the addition of Yunshui Zhong Temple has made Lingyun Sect stand firm again, and in a blink of an eye it has become a major force in Jiulin City.

This made some forces that originally coveted Lingyun's sect's foundation very dissatisfied. Some people said sourly that the disciples of Zhongsi's great sect would definitely not stay in Jiulin for a long time.

Some people began to spread rumors that the reason why Zhongsi was willing to stay was because Zhang Wen sent his sister out and tried to make a relationship between the two parties, but none of this seemed to be of any use.

Lingyun Gate is still as stable as Mount Tai. After the first seven-day challenge, Zhongsi also lived a life of simplicity. Not many people could see him normally.

...

Inside Lingyun Gate.

A young man was walking slowly in a quiet courtyard. He seemed to be slow, but in fact he was astonishingly fast. He walked the other courtyard in just a moment, and he did not miss every inch of land.

Then he began a new pace, the angle, distance, depth and route he took were exactly the same as the first time, just as an invisible hand was manipulating all of this.

"After martial arts reaching the master level, it comes with a hint of charm when released, and its effect is even greater than that of martial arts itself... It is worth it to spend a month to settle itself."

Of course, this young man is Xu Xian. He came to Jiulin City with a pseudonym "Zhongsi". More than a month has passed in a blink of an eye.

I remember that when he first came to Jiulin City, he had the idea of ​​"capturing" a few brave men and leaving, so he casually reported the name of "Zhongsi". After all, there are two kinds of martial arts in Yunshui Villa, and it is still impossible to hide it from those who are interested.

Unexpectedly, things went against my wishes. The gang of useless people in Jiulin City were not qualified to be captured. After picking more than a dozen sects in seven consecutive days, none of them were useful.

On the contrary, as he challenged along the way, Xu Xian's control over his martial arts became stronger and stronger, and as his understanding deepened, he was not in a hurry to capture it.

Because he found that even these warriors who were not qualified to be captured at all did not win overwhelmingly, and several of them had relatively difficult battles.

After all, the competition only determines the outcome and does not fight for life and death. Xu Xian’s ten-life advantage is useless. If you want to conquer the other party purely with martial arts, you can only rely on your own real skills.

Xu Xian suspected that the capture of the brave may be based on his own strength. Warriors with too big gaps are not within the capture range, and this strength refers to hard power.

Such as true qi strength, martial arts level, etc., all belong to the category of hard power, but what Xu Xian wants to improve now is soft power, which is the principle that sharpening a knife will not delay chopping wood.

In order to escape from Kamayang, he not only improved several martial arts at once, but also spent 5 points of experience to break through Zhou Tiangong to an unprecedented situation.

After the breakthrough, Zhou Tiangong really had the effect of compressing the true qi. With the continuous source of true qi, Xu Xian compressed the true qi twice within seven days, and then he began to rush into the formation.

Facts proved that his decision was correct. If it weren't for the acquired nature, the essence of true qi had changed, and he might have been delayed by the gate stone.

If the top warriors from the two major sects arrive, there will probably be no Zhongshi Zhonghe in Jiulin City today.

But the sequelae of doing this is that Xu Xian’s own understanding of martial arts is far from keeping up with his strength.

Now more than a month has passed, and Xu Xian has basically digested his previous gains.

If Xu Xian and Situ Xing are allowed to stand alone now, Xu Xian will be quite sure to take down the opponent, defeat or even kill him.

With master-level "Yunshou" and "Liuyunbu", it can be said that few descendants of the Yunshui Villa lineage can fight against Xu Xian, and the gap between the level of martial arts is particularly obvious.

Of course, except for Xu Wenjing, who has already rebelled from the sect, Xu Xian only heard about the feat of his cheap sister not long ago...

"Mr. Zhong, Mr. Zhong..."

Just as Xu Xian was thinking about it, a gentle voice came from outside the courtyard, interrupting his thoughts.

Xu Xian turned around and looked at a woman in the palace dress slowly walked in and came to him with a greeting. She was the real person in charge of Lingyun Sect, Zhang Qiluo, the sister of Shao Sect, who advocated Zhang Wen.

Outsiders only think that it is the sibling who supports the entire sect. In fact, Zhang Wen devotes a large part of his thoughts to martial arts practice, and Zhang Qiluo is dealing with many trivial matters.

Zhang Qiluo is indeed a good-looking person, and a little bit of makeup is a charming appearance. However, since Xu Xian entered Lingyun Sect, Zhang Qiluo has been plain almost always and even made a little ugly.

Xu Xian knew that the little girl probably heard rumors outside, and was afraid that she would really have to make a mistake, but she didn't dare to ask directly, so she had to make some efforts in secret.

In fact, she didn't have to, because in Xu Xian's eyes, she just regarded Lingyun Sect as a temporary site and would not be able to stay for a long time, and she was not interested in having much connection with them.

However, every time I see Zhang Qiluo's appearance, Xu Xian would want to tease her. At this time, he smiled and said, "What's the matter with Miss Qiluo? I haven't seen the girl for a long time..."

Zhang Qiluo lowered her head and did not dare to look at him. She pursed her lips slightly and said, "Mr. Zhong, two guests came to the door and claimed to be your old friend..."

"Old friend?" Xu Xian raised his eyebrows slightly. He felt that his peaceful life was about to come to an end.
