The sound drifted farther and farther until it dissipated.
Long Xie suddenly sat paralyzed on the ground, his legs becoming weak and shaking uncontrollably.
"Sword Immortal..."
He couldn't imagine that if Anhe had been allowed in just now, or if his attitude had been gentler, they might not be the only ones who would have died.
Long Xie called someone to deal with the body at the door, informed Xiao Yu of the matter, and added at the end:
"Your Highness, it is indeed the voice of the Sword Immortal. He also said... Red King, you are finally smart for once."
Xiao Yu didn't look surprised, but felt happy in his heart.
Fortunately, we cut off the connection with the underground river early, otherwise we would have suffered a big loss.
"Hmph, it doesn't matter, the time has not come yet." Xiao Yu said with unclear meaning.
...
At the same time, three other people died suddenly in Tianqi City, all killed by sword energy.
There is no sign of anyone showing a sword, but there is a sword monument standing there.
Except for the two underground river killers at the gate of Prince Chi's Mansion, the other three are Wang Ji Nian Gao, Xiao Liu Wugu, and the shopkeeper of Red Mansion.
All three merchants were destroyed by a sword, and the same type of sword monument as the June 4th Iron Shop was inserted.
"It's so big~"
"No, it's too big!"
Everyone looked up at the sword stele, and their hearts suddenly became pious. This 20-foot-tall sword shadow symbolized power, absoluteness, and awe.
At the top of a certain attic, Fang Ping stood facing the wind and said to himself:
"Gone."
When the June 4th Iron Shop Incident ended, he immediately merged into the world and monitored every move in Tianqi City.
As expected, some of the Dark River Killers began to panic. Some sought help from their superiors, while others gathered to discuss countermeasures. Even though they communicated in code, they still could not escape Fang Ping's pursuit.
As long as you are above the "appearance", you cannot escape.
...
"What? There are four more sword monuments in the city?" Emperor Mingde raised his eyebrows.
"Your Majesty, please don't move, the needle is stuck crookedly," Hua Jin scolded.
"well..."
In the palace, Hua Jin was performing daily acupuncture on Emperor Mingde to regulate his body.
Lan Yuehou reported today's major events in the city, while Li Changqing and Jin Xuan stood in silence.
The former nodded and said:
"Yes, there are four sword monuments in total, replacing four shops. The shopkeepers are all hidden river killers who have been lurking for many years."
"...Oh, there is no way. As the city gets bigger, there are always gaps that cannot be taken care of," Emperor Mingde said slowly, "The sword monument...how big an impact will it have?"
Lan Yuehou smiled slightly:
"It can be said that it is big or not. The sword monument is twenty feet high, extremely wide and very eye-catching.
"In addition to being eye-catching, those pieces of land are no longer usable."
"Is it......"
Emperor Mingde let out a sigh of relief:
"Let it go, Changqing."
"Yes." Li Changqing answered with his hands raised.
"You lead five hundred tiger warriors to carry out the operation of clearing the underground river and search with all your strength. Firstly, you will cooperate with the Sword Immortal, and secondly... don't let him Huohuo Tianqi's land."
If this continues, there will only be more and more sword monuments in Apocalypse. Will the imperial city be turned into a sword tomb by then?
Lan Yuehou joked:
"I'm afraid Aoki Sword Immortal will build another Kenshin Tomb."
...
In the Qin Tianjian, the imperial master and Xie Xuan sat opposite each other.
"Can Mr. Xie do that sword monument?"
"Of course I can't, the sword power is not enough," Xie Xuan smiled and shook his head.
At this time, two children ran past the courtyard, chasing flowers and butterflies together.
Both of them were wearing purple robes. The former had a childish smile but his pupils were a strange purple color, while the latter had a slightly fat face and would take two steps and rest for three steps.
It is Zitong and Feixuan.
The Imperial Master looked at the two children and said with a smile:
"Everyone is coming to Tianqi, it's going to be lively."
Xie Xuan smiled and stood up suddenly:
"Go and see how my apprentice is doing."
In the backyard of Qintian Prison, Li Fansong is lazing around...
The two men from Qingcheng Mountain were ordered by their master to go down the mountain to practice. They traveled around the world, met the Confucian Sword Immortal by chance, and finally arrived at the Qintian Prison according to the destination given by Zhao Yuzhen.
Zhao Yuzhen didn't tell them what they were doing here, but the Imperial Master knew...it was related to that building.
...
Fang Ping found Li Hanyi, who was practicing sword practice.
"How's it going? How many moves have you learned?"
"five."
Li Hanyi never forgets to practice swordsmanship, especially specializing in Holy Spirit Swordsmanship. But the more he practices swordsmanship, the more he understands how big the gap is between himself and Mu Zai.
This sword technique cannot be practiced unless you are a swordsman...
"Stop practicing now and go somewhere with me." Fang Ping said.
"Where to go?"
"Qin Tian Jian."
Fang Ping explained:
"After entering the Immortal Movement, I felt that there was no improvement, so I wanted to ask the National Master."
"......good."
Li Hanyi thought for a while and agreed. She also needed this answer very much.
On the way, he saw several sword monuments inserted into Tianqi by Fang Ping, and Li Hanyi became more determined to surpass him.
...
Qin Tianjian, Xingyue Pavilion.
Qi Tianchen and Xie Xuan are both there.
"Haha, three of the six sword immortals are in Qintian Prison, which is interesting." Qi Tianchen chuckled.
"The Imperial Master's temperament is still the same as before." Li Hanyi said calmly.
Xie Xuanze exchanged greetings with Fang Ping and whispered:
"Fang Ping, are you serious?"
The latter frowned, not understanding what he was referring to.
Xie Xuan blinked and quietly pointed at Li Hanyi:
"You want to mess with her...are you serious? Is there anything you can't think of?"
His voice was so low that only he and Fang Ping could hear it, but Li Hanyi had a keen sense and knew what Xie Xuan was saying without having to hear the content clearly.
"Dead scholar!"
Xie Xuan immediately dodged to avoid Li Hanyi's sword, and the two of them moved sideways and attacked in Xingyue Pavilion.
He can't escape her pursuit, but he can't fly without wings.
Xie Xuan was hit by Li Hanyi with his sword scabbard and said slightly surprised:
"Did you break through?"
Xie Xuan behaves like a gentleman. Everyone knows that he is very powerful, but they don't know exactly how strong he is because he rarely shows it.
In fact, he was slightly stronger than Li Hanyi, so he didn't expect to be caught so easily.
Li Hanyi said calmly:
"There's still half a step left."
The reason for this progress is mostly due to Fang Ping's Holy Spirit Sword Technique and Glowing Tai Sui.
On the other side, Fang Ping asked the Imperial Master:
"How can we go further in our cultivation? How can we practice cultivation?"
Qi Tianchen stretched out two fingers:
"First look at talent, and secondly look at opportunity. If both are in place, your strength will naturally increase."
Fang Ping shook his head:
"The former is innate, the latter is something you can encounter but cannot seek. I want to know other proactive methods."
Although the system is one, the mission of the 'Medical Saint' is still in progress. Ji Ruofeng may not be completed until Emperor Mingde is completely cured.
Being too dependent on the system is not a good thing.
Qi Tianchen nodded slightly:
"I understand. If you want to go further, there is a place you can go to...the first floor in the world."
After Xie Xuan heard this, he immediately became interested:
"The first floor in the world, the former site of Qintian Prison? Is it the incident recorded in "Apocalypse Strange News"?"
"Is that true?" Li Hanyi asked.
Qi Tianchen nodded in affirmation.
Hearing this, Xie Xuan was startled and seemed to understand Zhao Yuzhen's purpose of letting Feixuan stay in Qintian Prison.
