Liu Mingzhi’s words had just fallen when he was responded to by an astonishing sword intent reaching the sky.
The aura that made everyone feel palpitating just now disappeared from everyone else, and was all concentrated on Liu Mingzhi alone.
During the twelfth lunar month of winter, Liu Mingzhi felt that the sword intent, which was more piercing than the cold wind, enveloped his entire body.
My whole body is cold, but my forehead is covered with sweat.
“Who is the master?”
As soon as Liu Mingzhi opened his mouth, a gray shadow suddenly flashed under the dusk sky, and then an invisible sword energy came towards Liu Mingzhi like a thunderous force.
Liu Mingzhi, who was always ready to attack, waved his sword finger with his right hand, and the Heavenly Sword hanging on the hall door let out a loud sword roar and shot towards the oncoming sword energy.
Liu Mingzhi followed closely behind, leaping into the Sky Sword and flying towards the figure lingering in the air.
The menacing invisible sword energy shot out from the Heavenly Sword, and when they were about to collide, another invisible sword energy came from behind, cutting off the first sword energy in the air.
In an instant, the two sharp sword qi that came one after another dissipated out of thin air, but the heavenly sword that Liu Mingzhi shot out with his sword finger remained unabated, and continued to move towards the gray-robed man in the bamboo hat above his head in the gap between the two sword qi.
People are shot away in danger.
At the moment when Liu Mingzhi's look of astonishment and surprise appeared at the same time, facing the Heavenly Sword that appeared in front of him in an instant, the man in gray robe wearing a bamboo hat made a sword move with his right sword finger as if carelessly.
Consolidated body-protecting zhenqi lingered around the whole body, and a sword shield transformed from the zhenqi long sword was centered on the sword finger of the gray-robed man, protecting the gray-robed man behind the sword and shield.
Like a bell and a bell, the loud sound of the clash of swords and gold echoed in the inner courtyard of the Liu Mansion for a long time.
The tip of the Heavenly Sword was pointed at the center of the sword and shield, and the sword body made a slight trembling sword chant. It was still difficult to move forward. Liu Mingzhi's move that he had been preparing for a long time was so shocking that it even missed the casual move of the gray-robed man.
The defense could not be broken.
Listening to the trembling beep of the Heavenly Sword, the sword and shield lingering on the fingertips of the gray-robed man instantly dissipated, and the gray-robed man's sword fingers instantly clamped the tip of the Heavenly Sword between his fingers in a relaxed and freehand gesture.
In the meantime, he raised his Heavenly Sword slightly and counterattacked towards Liu Mingzhi who was coming from the sky.
Liu Mingzhi, who looked astonished, was shocked and felt chills all over his body. He subconsciously gathered the body-protecting Qi and flipped it in the air. He directed a sword, and the sky sword that came from the sky circled Liu Mingzhi's arm and was stabilized by Liu Mingzhi.
He held the ground in his hands.
The two people who didn't exchange a word coincidentally removed the protective aura around them and slowly fell towards the courtyard.
After the two landed on the ground one after another, the man in gray robe opposite him calmed down and slowly raised his head to reveal the true face of Lushan under the bamboo hat.
On the other hand, Young Master Liu was leaning on the ground with his Heavenly Sword to support his body. He was breathing heavily, and his breath was so disordered that he could not breathe smoothly.
The two had several fierce exchanges in the blink of an eye, and Liu Mingzhi looked helplessly and excitedly at the gray-robed man opposite him.
“Old man, first it was the Yingzhou Prince’s Mansion, and today it is the Liu Mansion in the capital, why are the greeting gifts you give me so special?
Fortunately, I broke through and escaped into the realm of innateness. Otherwise, this plan would be shocking, and I would have to die young.
Aren't you afraid that Shu'er will be widowed at a young age?"
Liu Mingzhi’s words directly revealed the identity of the visitor.
The mountains of the Yang Academy, the emperor of the dynasty heard people's politics.
Wen Renzheng raised his hand and gently took off the bamboo hat on his head, revealing a weather-beaten but full of energy face. Although he was older than before, his energy and spirit were different.
When Wen Renzheng left Yingzhou a few years ago, he was like a twilight lion. It was uncertain which day he would pass away and fly to the west.
Today's Wen Renzheng is more like a ferocious tiger in its prime that chooses and devours people. It looks like it is old and has a long life, but in fact it can easily take people's lives at any time.
Wen Renzheng glanced at the empty rooftops in the inner courtyard of the Liu family, then looked back and smiled lightly, holding up his bamboo hat and walking towards Liu Mingzhi at a steady pace.
The moment Wen Renzheng looked away, four old men on the back of the roof, dressed in light green robes and with golden willow leaves embroidered on their chests, breathed a sigh of relief.
I wiped the fine sweat on my forehead and thought to myself that this old guy must have entered the legendary state of three flowers gathering at the top, and then quietly retreated.
“Zi Rui, you have to keep practicing.
The innate sword energy buried in your body is more than that powerful."
“Old man, your back hurts when you stand and talk. I have to have time to practice more!
Are government affairs not being handled? Are state affairs not being handled? Are government affairs not being handled? Are people's livelihood issues not being handled?
All the people in the world are staring at me, how can you be like a crane in the clouds, with no distractions in your mind?"
Wenren Yunshu, who was guarding Liu Dashao's group of children, was stunned for a moment. His beautiful eyes gradually turned red, mist formed in his eyes, and he walked towards the outside of the hall with trembling steps.
Huyan Yunyao also looked excited, and her phoenix eyes greeted her with joy.
"grandfather!"
“Mentor!”
Wen Renzheng heard the reputation and went away. His old but sharp eyes looked softly at the two women who walked out of the hall, nodding and smiling.
“Silly girl, Zi Le, long time no see.”
Wen Renzheng's words caused the mist in Wen Ren Yunshu's beautiful eyes to flow down uncontrollably, and the flying swallow flew towards Wen Renzheng like a flying swallow returning to its nest.
“Grandpa! It’s been almost six years. Where have you been? After we parted ways in Yingzhou, there was no news from you again. Shuer Shuer thought you were gone.”
Wen Renzheng lowered his head and threw himself into his arms, sobbing softly. Wen Renyun was soothed by the tears, and his withered hands gently stroked his granddaughter's black hair that had been tied up in a bun.
“Silly boy, grandpa has made you worried. Grandpa has made you worried.”
“As long as I see that grandpa is fine, Shu’er will feel relieved.”
Wen Renzheng took out the handkerchief and handed it to Wen Ren Yunshu. Seeing that Wen Ren Yunshu had already tied up her hair into a woman's bun, Wen Renzheng nodded helplessly and happily.
After all, my apprentice, the pig, had to take over the little cabbage at home.
"My child, wipe your tears. You have become a woman. It will not look good if you cry any more."
Wenren Yunshu's cheeks were slightly red with tears on them. He turned his eyes to Liu Mingzhi, nodded silently, took the handkerchief and wiped it.
“Zi Le!”
Huyan Yunyao, who had been waiting aside, hurried over and said, "Teacher, Zi Le, it's great to see you."
Wenren Yunshu looked at Huyan Yunyao's light yellow cross-collar skirt and nodded with a faint smile: "In the end, the military uniform will be replaced by a yellow one, and even you will be killed by this kid."
Huyan Yunyao looked embarrassed, lowered her head in embarrassment, and shouted coquettishly: "Teacher!"
Liu Mingzhi hurriedly turned around and signaled to the People's Government Hall to reminisce about old times: "Old man, we meet old friends again, so let's not greet each other outside the hall, please."
"Yes, yes, my husband is right. Grandpa, please come in quickly."
“Teacher please.”
Wen Renzheng was not polite at all. He threw the bamboo hat to Liu Mingzhi and walked directly towards the main hall.
Mrs. Liu hurriedly led a group of family members to greet him, and looked at Wen Renzheng with a wry smile: "Old man, it's you. Your appearance is really a thunderous move!"
Wen Renzheng smiled slightly and responded: "Girl from the Bai family, I'm disturbing your reunion dinner. Don't take it seriously."
“Old man, where do you start with these words? Your coming to this humble house is a great thing for the Liu family. Please take a seat.”
“You’re welcome, old man!”
"please!"
Qi Run also responded respectfully: "Master Shan, I haven't seen you for many years, but you still have the same style. The students are polite."
“You all sit down, you all sit down, why are you embarrassing me like this?”
“Yes, we should be respectful rather than obey orders.”
“Zirui, is your host still standing like this?”
Young Master Liu smiled lightly and sat down: "Old man, I'll pour you some wine."
Wen Renzheng glanced at his granddaughter Wen Renyunshu: "I'm not polite about this glass of wine. I drank it for Shu'er."
“Good wine!”
“As soon as Wen Renzheng put down his wine glass, Liu Zhi’an’s voice sounded from the back of the hall: “What happened? Who is so bold? Mountain student Liu Zhi’an has seen the mountain leader.”
“Excuse me, I was just wondering why you, the head of the Liu family, were not here, but you came out as soon as you thought about it.”
“It’s just a small matter to deal with. I don’t know if the Chief of the Mountain is here, but I am not welcomed from afar. I hope that the Chief of the Mountain will not be offended.”
"Okay, let's stop saying these polite words. You are the head of the house, and you cannot let this old guest become the guest. Please take a seat!"
“I don’t dare.”
Liu Zhian sat down and picked up the wine glass in front of him.
“Sir, I haven’t seen you for many years. My students and relatives would like to propose a toast to you.”
Qi Run also hurriedly picked up the wine glass and nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, the student and your in-laws will toast you."
Liu Mingzhi poured glasses of wine for Wen Renzheng and himself.
