Mu Zining raised his eyebrows: "Oh? Why did senior say this?"

The drunk beggar scratched his head: "I don't know why, when I first saw you, I seemed to see an old friend from back then."

"Old friend?" Mu Zining smiled slightly and said, "Senior Zui was joking. Zi Ning is only five years old now and has never been to Fengshan several times. How can he be an old friend of senior?"

"That's right." The drunk beggar sighed: "That was all a hundred years ago, alas."

He suddenly sighed, and Mr. Mu on the side quickly asked: "Why are you sighing, Senior Zui?"

The drunk beggar shook his head and said: "It's nothing, I just remembered some past events and an old friend. He also thought of some news from the outside world over the years, and the old friend was no longer here, so he sighed, that old friend had a great influence on the old beggar.

Well, I'm afraid I won't be able to repay you in this life."

"Master's old friend?" At this moment, a voice sounded, but it was a middle-aged man wearing a brocade shank and a goat's beard who came over. Hearing the drunk beggar's words, he asked with a smile: "Don't you know?

Have you ever seen it?"

The drunk beggar shook his head: "How could you have met him? Even as a teacher, I have only met him once. I have been lucky enough for three lifetimes. Speaking of which, it was the year when my teacher accepted you as my disciple."

He looked at Mu Zining with a nostalgic look: "That one was also dressed in white and looked like an immortal. Although you are young, your demeanor is a bit like that one."

The middle-aged man asked curiously: "Is this happening? I've never heard of you mentioning it, Master."

As he said this, he bowed his hand to Mr. Mu and said, "I'm busy with some affairs. I just arrived. Brother Mu Xian, don't be surprised."

Mr. Mu smiled and said: "How could it happen? You are the deputy city lord and have to deal with many things every day. You are not as free as an old man like me. I am extremely grateful to you for inviting Senior Drunken Beggar for me today."

Mu Zining also raised his hands and saluted: "I have met Mr. Su."

This middle-aged man, Mu Zining, had met him before. He was Su Zixiu, the current deputy city lord of Bianping City, and a direct disciple of Drunken Beggar.

Although he seems to be no more than middle-aged, he is actually over a hundred years old, older than Mr. Mu. This is just because he is a monk with advanced cultivation and his appearance does not show his age.

Vice City Lord Su is also a legendary figure in Bianping City. It is said that he was originally a commoner. He was adopted as a disciple by a drunken beggar when he was young. He broke through to the king realm when he was only thirty years old and was adopted as an adopted son by the City Lord of Bianping.

He became quite famous in the border area.

Now that he is over a hundred years old, he is already a high-level expert in the imperial realm. He is the strongest person in Bianping City besides his master Drunken Beggar. He has also been appointed as the deputy city lord. However, the city lord is old and has

He has no children, so after he abdicates, Su Zixiu will undoubtedly be the next city lord, and he can be said to be a very powerful person.

The Mu family is one of the largest families in Bianping City. Although Mr. Mu and Su Zixiu are different in age, they can be considered peers. They have known each other for decades and have a deep friendship. This time, it was because of him that the old man Drunken Beggar was

Please come to the birthday banquet.

"Zi Ning has grown a lot taller. Brother Mu Xian must be very happy to have such a smart great-great-grandson." Su Zixiu smiled and said a few words to Mu Zining, then turned to the drunken beggar.

"From what Master said, it seems that the old friend was a very important person?"

Mr. Mu was very curious and looked at the drunk beggar.

The drunk beggar sighed slightly: "He is more than just a big shot. Although the old man did not reveal his identity back then, if the old beggar's guess is correct, he is the legendary most powerful man in the mainland, the Supreme Lord of the Upper Realm."

"The most powerful man in the mainland...could it be...Chen——" Su Zixiu and Mr. Mu were both startled and looked horrified. When they were about to continue, they were interrupted by the drunk beggar.

"How can we mention that person's name casually?"

Su Zixiu nodded, his eyes full of surprise: "What I'm saying is that my disciple is being disrespectful."

Then he remembered something and sighed slightly: "If it is really that person, I understand why Master is lamenting."

Mr. Mu nodded with deep sympathy and said: "Although there has not been much news from the outside world over the years, the old man has heard a little bit. The reason why the mainland has not fallen over the years is because that senior sacrificed his life for righteousness and defeated the leader of the devil.

Otherwise, where can I wait for peace?"

"But Mo Kui was just repelled." The drunk beggar shook his head and sighed: "There will come a time when he will come back again. By then, who can stop him?"

The three of them were silent for a moment, and Su Zixiu shook his head and said: "Master, it is unreasonable to worry. Even with Master's high level of cultivation, he is still a drop in the ocean in the face of such a world-shattering disaster. We only need to protect Pingcheng here, this is related to the mainland.

Big things are free for the powerful to consider."

The drunk beggar sighed: "As a teacher, don't you understand this truth? It's just that everyone is responsible for the rise and fall of the world. If even the upper realm really falls by then, there will be no eggs in the nest."

While several people were talking, no one noticed that Mu Zining was standing aside and listening, looking thoughtful.

However, today was Mr. Mu's birthday party after all. On this big day, a few people only said a few words and then turned the topic to other places.

The birthday banquet didn't end until late at night, and the guests and hosts had a great time.

Mr. Mu was still thinking about wanting Mu Zi to take the drunken beggar as his disciple, but the drunken beggar said that he had no intention of accepting a disciple anymore, which disappointed Mr. Mu.

However, before leaving, the drunk beggar left behind a book of spiritual practice, saying that he wanted Mu Zining to try some practice. If he was talented and enlightened enough and could get started, he could just become a disciple of his disciple Su Zixiu.

Mr. Mu was very happy, and gave his inner teachings to Mu Zining, and told him to practice well. Although he could not directly become a disciple of the drunken beggar, it was not bad to become a disciple of Su Zixiu. After all, Su Zixiu had only been on good terms with the Mu family for a hundred years now.

He is more than a year old and has great hope of breaking through to the realm of respect in the future.

That night, Mu Zining returned to his room. After washing himself under Yinhuan's service, he sat by the bed and casually flipped through the book of spiritual practice.

"I always feel that these are very familiar."

He suddenly spoke, seemingly talking to himself.

But at some point, there was one more person in the originally empty room.

It was the little girl carrying the dark sword on her back who was looking at him quietly.

Mu Zining raised his head: "What do you think?"

He recalled the conversation between Mr. Mu and others during the day.

"Do you know the person they are talking about?"

The little girl blinked but said nothing.

Mu Zining shook his head and smiled: "I knew you couldn't speak."

"Forget it, we'll watch it tomorrow. It's late at night, so go to sleep first."

Mu Zining put his thoughts beside him, closed his eyes and fell asleep.

As the eyelids closed, the vision fell into darkness, and then it became bright again.

Colorful lights light up from the dark world.

The girl did not disappear, she just stood quietly by the bed, looking at Mu Zining, who was emitting a faint gleam.
