That year, that cicada, that sword

Chapter 200 Three steps with power in hand

After returning to the East Lake Bieyuan, his own disciples of the Sword Sect who were proficient in Qi and Huang techniques treated his injuries. The injuries caused to him by Sword Master Changxin and the King of Chujiang looked scary, but in fact they were just flesh wounds. On the contrary, Xu Beiyou used them one after another. The damage caused by Zhu Xian's sword energy to one's body is even more serious. It is completely killing one thousand enemies and one thousand self-damages.

This time Xu Beiyou brought back Sword Master Chang Xin's head, and Shangguan Qinghong brought back Sword Master Chang Xin's sword.

After Xu Beiyou's abdominal wound was treated briefly, he and Shangguan Qinghong sat down in the main hall of the East Lake Courtyard, held the sword of Master Changxin in his hand, and asked, "Master, you are an elder. Profound, from your point of view, I wonder how many people can convince me with this Sword Qi Lingkong Hall?"

Shangguan Qinghong pondered for a while, and said: "Don't talk about those swordsmen, just talk about twelve swordsmen, about four swordsmen will betray the young master, and four swordsmen will obey the young master's orders, as for The remaining four sword masters were mostly reeds on the wall looking left and right.

Xu Beiyou shook his head and said with a smile, "Uncle Master must never call you Young Master again, it really frustrates Beiyou."

Shangguan Qinghong shook his head and said: "The ruler of heaven and earth, relatives and masters, before the masters and masters, the etiquette cannot be discarded."

Xu Beiyou said: "The so-called young master is actually the first disciple of the Sword Sect. In terms of status in the sect, he is no different from his uncle and others. If one day Beiyou is qualified to inherit the position of suzerain, it will be okay for his uncle to call him suzerain again." Not too late."

Shangguan Qinghong smiled and said: "In this case, the old man will ask you to call Beiyou."

Xu Beiyou smiled and nodded yes, then clapped his hands.

A Jiange disciple came behind Xu Beiyou and said respectfully, "Young Master, please give me instructions."

Xu Beiyou pierced Sword Master Changxin's head with the long sword in his hand, passed the long sword through the mouth of the head and strung it on the body of the sword, and then handed the sword to him, saying: "Although family ugliness should not be publicized, but kill chickens to scare monkeys, you put this Hang the sword and the human head on the city gate of Jiangdu for those people to see, this is the fate of daring to betray Jianzong."

The Jiange disciple took the long sword and left as promised.

Seeing this scene, Shangguan Qinghong thought of her own descendants and couldn't help sighing softly.

Although counted by seniority, Xu Beiyou is his nephew and nephew, but by age, he can almost be regarded as Xu Beiyou's ancestors. His youngest grandson is about the same age as Xu Beiyou. There is no obvious distinction between superiors and inferiors, and even my grandson is slightly better, but in terms of courage and even style, my grandson is far behind.

But I can't blame my grandson, it can only be said that the current situation is like this, since Wei Wang Xiaojin came to rule Wei, the Zhang family and the Gongsun family of the five great families have been overthrown successively, leaving only the Ye family, the Murong family and the Shangguan family. The Shangguan family has been guarded and suspected all these years because of the birth of a great sword fairy, Shangguan Xianchen. The frog at the bottom of the well, no matter how big the mouth of the well is, it cannot compare with the vast world outside the well.

On the other hand, Xu Beiyou followed Gongsun Zhongmou from Zhongdu, Xiliangzhou, Xiulong Grassland, Julucheng, Liaozhou, Biyou Island, and then to Jiangnan today. In just one year, he has experienced the magnificence that ordinary people can hardly see in a lifetime, and naturally tempered a pattern different from ordinary people and a courage and courage that is not afraid of life and death. However, Xu Beiyou is by no means bold and reckless. This time he Only when she was sure that Murong Xuanyin would not turn against her just because of a few abandoned disciples of the Sword Sect, did she dare to act so boldly.

Xu Beiyou half-talked to himself: "The twelve sword masters of Jianqi Lingkong Hall, the first ten are called Ten Tiangan in order, and the last two have no relevant titles. After one Changxin sword master died, the remaining The next eleven sword masters, Yu Jia, Xuan Yi, and Gui Ding will probably watch from the sidelines. The few sword masters headed by Chi Bing do not want to recognize me as the new master. They are either independent or attached to Murong Xuan Yin and the others, counting and counting, it seems that the only one who can be called the confidant of the direct line is Song Guanguan, who is at the end of the twelve sword masters."

Shangguan Qinghong didn't care about this, and said: "Beiyou, except for Chi Bing, the rest of the people are just low-level characters, don't take it too seriously, your main energy should still be on your own cultivation. , as long as the realm is reached, no one will dare to underestimate you."

Xu Beiyou nodded solemnly.

Shangguan Qinghong said warmly: "Sword 36 is the top method in the world. Although ordinary disciples can practice it, most of them are incomplete. Only the suzerain can practice the complete sword 36. You are the successor appointed by the suzerain. You are expected to bring sword 36 I learned everything in my hands. Northward Journey, whether the suzerain who has already left or the old man who is still alive, after all, they are all old people. At sunset, they will always be pushed forward by the waves of newcomers. Among your generation, Xiao Xuan has already It’s like the sun is at its peak, but for you, it’s at best the rising sun, and the road is still long, so you have to take a long-term view and don’t stick to the details in front of you.”

Xu Beiyou was thoughtful, but said nothing.

Shangguan Qinghong had a gloomy and surly temper in her early years, but after getting older, she became more easy-going, and her mood gradually returned to peace and serenity. She was also willing to chatter a few more words with her pleasing juniors, "power is real, and it is also fake. Time is true, and after death it is false. This is why some people can't see it until they are dying. If they die, everything will come to naught. Everything is like a dream. This so-called seeing it away is just a last resort. Look away. Of course, the reason why I say this is not to let you learn from Buddhist monks to let go, but to let you grasp the scale."

Xu Beiyou hesitated a little and said, "Master, do you want to talk about life and death?"

Shangguan Qinghong's eyes suddenly flashed a gleam, and he praised again and again: "Before the suzerain passed away, I wrote a letter to the old man. The letter said that you are the first-class heart and second-class understanding. Come on, your comprehension is no worse than xinxing. If you want to be right, this old man means these four words, whether it is status or power, in the final analysis, they are all things outside the body, and only the realm of cultivation is your own."

After being silent for a while, Xu Beiyou said softly, "Thank you for your teaching, Uncle Beiyou, but Beiyou had made an agreement with someone, some things had to be done, and this power had to be seized."

Shangguan Qinghong was taken aback for a moment, then laughed loudly and said: "So that's it, this is all I said, as for the way to go, it's up to you to decide."

Xu Beiyou smiled wryly and was speechless.

He once made an agreement with Xiao Zhinan that one day he would go to the capital of God, and if he wanted to win a place in front of His Majesty the Emperor Xiao Xuan, it was not realistic to rely on his cultivation alone. After all, he was only given a few years. A great chance, at most, is just entering the realm of the earth fairy, it is nothing in the court of masters, after all, you have to start from the hands of the powerful.

No matter whether he could get a happy ending in the end, Xu Beiyou didn't want to miss the appointment with that woman.

First gain a firm foothold in Jiangdu and become a "superior man", and then meet Mr. Han Xuan and Xiao Zhinan in the northern gods, and finally revive the Jianzong and seek justice from Qiuye, the head teacher of the Taoist sect.

These are the three goals that Xu Beiyou set for himself.

These three goals are interlocking. The first goal is not so much to be a master, but rather to be qualified to enter the game. The world is a game of chess, not to mention chess players outside the game, even if you are a chess piece, you must have sufficient qualifications .

After being qualified as a pawn to enter the game, the capital of the North God is not only for Xiao Zhinan, but also for taking advantage of the general situation of the court through Mr. Han Xuan's line.

Taking advantage of the power of the imperial court to fight against Daoist Yi, if the imperial court can win, Jianzong will naturally be able to follow the trend just like the Taoist sect decades ago.At that time, Xu Beiyou can wholeheartedly pursue the cultivation of the invincible earth immortal who gathers the twelve swords, compete with Qiuye, and seek justice for the master.

Three steps, each step is as difficult as climbing the sky.

As the sky was getting darker, Shangguan Qinghong finally got up, said goodbye to Xu Beiyou and left.

Xu Beiyou came to the eaves alone and looked up at the night.

The moon was covered by dark clouds, and it was actually a stormy scene.

Xu Beiyou let out a foul breath, and laughed at himself: "Last year at this time in Zhongdu, this year at this time in Jiangdu, next year at this time in Imperial Capital?"

Xu Beiyou looked down at Tian Lan at his waist, and murmured, "If you can't, you have to."
