"Master Lu, I really want to trouble you this time."

Before entering Sichuan, Dongfang Yuan came to the door with the last blood of the Dongfang family and asked Lu Hanjiang to send the child to the Qingcheng faction in Sichuan and Sichuan. It is said that the Dongfang family still has a favor with them.

The child brought by Dongfang Yuan is only six or seven years old, but he already has a maturity that does not belong to this age group in his eyes. His nickname is Bao'er. As for his real name, it seems that Dongfang Yuan does not intend to tell him his original life experience. In this way, he spent his whole life in Qingcheng School in peace.

For Dongfang Yuan's request, Lu Hanjiang naturally readily accepted, and at the same time he did not forget to send out the invitation: "Don't Dongfang girls plan to take a walk together?"

Dongfang Yuan shook her head and refused: "I still have some things to do in the Central Plains. Recently, a strange thing happened in the south. Has Mr. Lu heard about it?"

"Oh, strange thing? Why don't you tell me, girl?"

Lu Hanjiang invited Dongfang Yuan to sit down, and passed the hot tea that had just been boiled to her: "Dongfang girl uses tea."

"Thank you."

Dongfang Yuan took the tea, and suddenly felt a special gaze. She raised her head subconsciously. This is the tea stall on the Ruchuan Road. Except for the beggar gang disciples brought by Lu Hanjiang, there was only one masked maid.

That gaze disappeared in a flash, but Dongfang Yuan still caught it. She gave the overly conspicuous maid a strange look, and then drank the tea as if nothing had happened.

Dongfang Yuan put down her cup and said slowly: "With the intelligence gathering ability of the beggar gang, Mr. Lu must know about it in a few days. A few days ago, a murderous guy suddenly appeared near Hengshan Mountain in Nanyue. , Several masters in the rivers and lakes were killed by her hands."

"There is such a thing," Lu Hanjiang asked curiously, "Could it be someone from the devil way?"

Dongfang Yuan paused, and said: "It's strange to say that this person kills without fame, but looking at the identity of the person she killed, it seems that it is difficult to find any connection. Many sects in the world have lost their lives in her hands. Even Yuwen A disciple of the aristocratic family was also killed."

Lu Hanjiang suddenly said: "The Yuwen family is also dead. So, the Dongfang girl stayed in the Central Plains this time just to investigate this matter?"

"Young Master Lu, I admire you when you see Weizhi's work," Dongfang Yuan continued, "This man's attack was extremely ruthless, and most of the corpses of the people who were killed had stumps and broken arms. There are only two clues now, one is that this man used a sword, and the other is This person is a woman."

"Girl, use a sword." Lu Hanjiang frowned slightly: "This is too broad. There are not many women who are famous for their swordsmanship in the Jianghu. With these clues alone, you may not be able to find someone in ten or eight years."

Dongfang Yuan also sighed slightly: "But now we can only find out these things. That person has almost no rules to follow. She killed disciples from the Five Sacred Mountains, Shaolin disciples, and family members. It is really puzzling."

Lu Hanjiang was thoughtful: "Killing without leaving a mark, that is to say, she doesn't seek fame, it doesn't look like a demon, but if it's for revenge, then she has too many enemies. Could it be that the whole righteous way is hers? enemies of the

"That's the reason," Dongfang Yuan nodded, and said, "Nowadays, the southern rivers and lakes are turned upside down by her alone. The martial arts are better, and there are always masters in charge. Those small families are the ones who are in danger. The 'Sword Demon' came to kill us."

Lu Hanjiang raised his brows, and said curiously: "'Sword Demon'? Huh, what a domineering title, you gave it to me?"

Dongfang Yuan said indifferently: "This person's swordsmanship is vicious and he kills erratically, almost like a demon, but he doesn't leave a name. Those people are scared, and they call her 'Sword Demon' in private."

"Since this matter happened at the border of Nanyue, Hengshan faction doesn't plan to intervene?" Lu Hanjiang asked again.

Dongfang Yuan said calmly: "After Tianfeng was crippled, not only did his heart dissipate, but even the entire Hengshan faction became secluded from the world. Unless the sword demon kills Hengshan, they will just turn a blind eye. , as if you can’t see it.”

"Tsk tsk." Lu Hanjiang clicked his tongue, and the light in his eyes was somewhat meaningful.

Recalling Taoist Tianfeng's high-spirited and lofty ambitions to send Wuyue, and looking at his current dejected appearance, one can't help but feel embarrassed.

"This time, helping Yuwenshang find out about the sword demon is repaying his kindness for saving Bao'er. So far, my Dongfang family has nothing to do with his Yuwen family." Dongfang Yuan said in a deep voice, her eyes seemed serious, With a little relief.

Lu Hanjiang saw the light in her eyes clearly, and after a long silence, he asked: "Miss Dongfang's words seem to have the intention of avoiding the world. Is it possible that the girl is not planning to avenge your father's revenge?"

Hearing this, Dongfang Yuan clenched her fists slightly, and when she turned her eyes to Bao'er who was sitting alone in the distance, the hatred in her eyes slowly dissipated.

"Dongfang's family has suffered such a catastrophe. It is rare to be able to leave a bloodline. I want to watch Bao'er grow up and make other plans after he gets married and starts a business."

Having said that, the relief and ease of letting go of hatred in Dongfang Yuan's eyes is indeed hard to hide. She used to have nothing, so she was able to agree to Lu Hanjiang's suggestion without hesitation and work together for "revenge".

But now, she is no longer alone, she has an extra baby, and the balance in her heart has shifted imperceptibly.

"what a pity."

Lu Hanjiang sighed softly, looking at Dongfang Yuan with regret that couldn't be concealed, he tried to hold back and said: "Maybe Dongfang girl doesn't have to make a decision so early, it's better to wait until this young master returns from Sichuan, you How about making another plan?"

Dongfang Yuan shook her head: "I've made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me any more."

"... Sigh, that's really a pity. I'm afraid the world will lose a legend." Lu Hanjiang couldn't help sighing.

"My lord, I am just a mere person, how can I afford such praise."

As she said that, Dongfang Yuan straightened her eyes and said, "No, Mr. Lu, Mr. Yue, although I don't know why your Xiaoyao faction wants to join Jinyiwei, but my Dongfang family really doesn't want to participate in this matter anymore. Your kindness for helping me this time, I will keep it in my heart and will definitely pay back in the future.”

Lu Hanjiang waved his hand, smiled indifferently and said, "Young Dongfang girl is gone now, you and I have a fate and friendship, sons and daughters of the rivers and lakes, don't talk about the twists and turns, we can get together and get separated."

With that said, Lu Hanjiang picked up the tea bowl and signaled Dongfang Yuan: "Dongfang girl, please."

"Thank you, young master. I, Dongfang Yuan, swear here that I will never reveal the identity of young master to a third person in this life."

Dongfang Yuan quietly breathed a sigh of relief, raised her tea bowl and said, "Today, I will replace wine with tea, and I would like to offer a toast to Mr. Yue. I wish you a bright future."

After all, the two clinked glasses, drank it all in one gulp, looked at each other and smiled, everything was said in silence.

Afterwards, Dongfang Yuan entrusted Bao'er to Lu Han and his younger brother. After saying goodbye, Dongfang Yuan set off for the south to continue to track down the sword demon.

Lu Hanjiang looked at her leaving back and shook his head slightly: "It's really a pity."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan came to his side, followed his gaze and looked at Dongfang Yuan who had disappeared into a black spot at the end of the road in the distance, and said flatly, "Do you want to get rid of her?"

Lu Hanjiang narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "I have never played enough games in this world to stop. I was really optimistic about Dongfang girl. It's a pity. Well, since she doesn't want to play, let's play for us." Residual heat, maybe it can be a breakthrough against the Yuwen family, even if it is my reward for sending her to the Qingcheng faction."

Huangfu Xiaoyuan glanced at Lu Hanjiang and asked, "Are you planning to keep this child?"

"Xiaoyuan, you asked this question, how can I answer it? I always keep my word. Since I agreed, I will definitely send the person to Qingcheng faction safely. As for after that—" Lu Hanjiang spread his hands helplessly, and said : "The Dongfang family is a serious offender who conspired to assassinate His Royal Highness the former crown prince. The whole family is a capital crime. The court wants to kill him. What can I do?"
