Chapter 93

Under the Cuiyun Peak, beside the Green Water Lake.

The former "No. [-] in the world" Excalibur Villa is located here.

On the first day of the new year, Xie Zhuoyan, who was dressed in a festive red dress, sat in front of the dressing table, looked at his ordinary appearance in the mirror, and suddenly raised his hand to tear off the human skin mask on his face.

When the human skin mask was torn off, a face that was all over the country and city appeared in the mirror, with bright eyes that were elegant and agile.

After carefully looking at himself in the mirror, Xie Zhuoyan got up and walked out of the room.

She was going to the hidden sword house in the back mountain to pay New Year's greetings to her grandfather and report some recent events by the way.

Soon, Xie Zhuoyan came to the back mountain, and saw a bamboo house standing on the side of the mountain from a distance.

Bamboo is planted all around the bamboo house, even in the cold winter season, it is still straight and green.

Xie Zhuoyan stood on the open space in front of the bamboo house, saluted respectfully, and said loudly: "Yan'er pays homage to grandpa, wish grandpa a happy new year."

As Xie Zhuoyan's voice fell, there was no response from the bamboo house.

Xie Zhuoyan was not in a hurry either, and just stood outside the door with a salute, waiting patiently.

It was not until about a stick of incense had passed that a low and hoarse voice came from the bamboo house.

"Yan'er is here, come in."

Hearing this, Xie Zhuoyan stood up straight and walked slowly towards the bamboo house. She gently opened the door and walked into the slightly dimly lit bamboo house.

The furnishings in the bamboo house are simple, with a simple bed on the right side, a table in the middle, and a tea set on the table.

On the left side, there is an altar table with a long sword on it. It looks ordinary, but it gives people an extremely impressive feeling.

There is an ink painting on the wall behind the altar. In the painting, a young and handsome man is holding a long sword with extraordinary momentum.

Xie Zhuoyan's grandfather, Xie Xiaodi, was sitting cross-legged on a futon facing the altar.

Xie Zhuoyan looked at Xie Xiaodi's back, saluted again, and said, "Greetings, Grandpa."

The futon under Xie Xiaodi turned his head slowly, and he turned his back to Xie Zhuoyan to face him, a kind smile appeared on his face full of wrinkles and age spots.

"I haven't seen you for a while."

"Yan'er has been out recently and not in the villa, so she hasn't been able to visit grandpa often."

Xie Xiaodi nodded slightly, and said, "I remember, you went to Qixia Town and met the storyteller."

Hearing Xie Xiaodi mention Lu Yan, Xie Zhuoyan replied: "Yes, I have a pretty good relationship with him now."

Xie Xiaodi was silent for a moment, then suddenly asked: "Is there anything about exploring the Shattered Void?"

Xie Zhuoyan replied: "I mentioned this to him before, but he doesn't seem to believe it. He doesn't think that someone can shatter the void."

Xie Xiaodi wasn't surprised, even the Murong family in Qixingtang in the south of the Yangtze River didn't believe in breaking the void back then, let alone Lu Yan.

However, Xie Xiaodi was also a little puzzled, and asked: "Since he doesn't believe in this kind of thing, why did he mention it in the storytelling?"

Xie Zhuoyan thought for a while and replied: "He once said that stories come from life, but they are higher than life. There will be no broken void in life, but it can be in the story, which probably means that."

Xie Xiaodi looked at Xie Zhuoyan quietly, and asked, "Do you believe it?"

Xie Zhuoyan nodded, and replied: "There's no need for him to deceive me about this kind of thing."

Xie Xiaodi shook his head and said, "You must believe what people say, and you must not believe everything."

Xie Zhuoyan frowned slightly, and asked, "What does grandpa mean?"

Xie Xiaodi sighed, and said: "None of you saw that scene with your own eyes back then, but I saw it with your own eyes, the sword aura that seemed to poke a hole in the sky, the sharp sword intent, really shattered the void ability."

"Over the years, we have lived here in seclusion and worked hard to practice the joint fencing formation. We just want to reproduce the sword of the year, but it is a pity that no matter how hard we try, the gap is still too big."

Speaking of this, Xie Xiaodi paused for a while, and then said: "I'm already old, and I can't afford to wait."

Xie Zhuoyan said immediately after hearing the words: "Grandpa is still in good health, at least he can live for decades."

Xie Xiaodi shook his head, and replied: "I know my own body very well, at most one year."

Xie Zhuoyan frowned, and said: "But I met Huang Jiuyin in the palace not long ago. He is already over 140 years old, and he is still guarding the emperor. Grandpa, you are only 110 years old."

Xie Xiaodi shook his head and said, "I'm different from him."

While speaking, Xie Xiaodi suddenly raised his hand and pulled off his collar, revealing his thin chest.

On his chest, there is a bowl-sized scar, which looks shocking!

Seeing the huge scar, Xie Zhuoyan couldn't help showing a look of surprise on his face, and exclaimed.

Xie Xiaodi smiled bitterly, and said: "Back then, the Murong family wanted to compete for the position of Heavenly Venerable, and they joined forces with dozens of masters to besiege me. Although I killed most of them, they also left me with injuries that are difficult to heal until now. .”

Xie Zhuoyan couldn't help asking, "Is this a gunshot wound?"

Xie Xiaodi nodded and said, "This gun was left by Murongye."

Murong Ye may be a very unfamiliar name to Jianghu, but Xie Zhuoyan has heard of it before.

Murong Ye was the most outstanding junior of the Murong family back then, with superb spear skills, he was called the king of spears.

After all, when the Murong family fought for the position of Heavenly Venerable, Murong Ye was nothing!

Today's Murong Ye is also more than 100 years old, maybe he is the one sitting on the position of Heavenly Venerable at this time!

Xie Xiaodi waved to Xie Zhuoyan, Xie Zhuoyan walked over and knelt down in front of Xie Xiaodi.

Xie Xiaodi held Xie Zhuoyan's hand, patted it lightly, and said, "Yan'er, grandpa can last for a year at most, within one year, if he can't break the void and go to the upper realm, then grandpa will definitely die."

Xie Zhuoyan's eyes turned red when he heard the words.

Xie Xiaodi has been teaching her swordsmanship since she was a child. She is both an elder and a teacher. She absolutely does not want Xie Xiaodi to die like this.

Xie Xiaodi raised his hand to wipe away the teardrops from the corners of Xie Zhuoyan's eyes, and said, "He is now the Grand Master of Wushuang, do you think he can grow to the height of Shattered Void within a year?"

Speaking of this, Xie Xiaodi couldn't help but sighed, if the juniors at Shenjian Villa could live up to it, why would he need to count on an outsider.

Xie Zhuoyan shook her head and said, "I don't know."

Xie Xiaodi pondered for a moment, then said: "Anyway, within a year, if you bring him back, I want to see him with my own eyes."

Xie Zhuoyan nodded and said, "Within a year, I will definitely find a way to bring him back to Shenjian Villa!"

 Recently, there are many things to be busy with.

  Therefore, the update will temporarily resume the third update.

  But I will try my best to collect manuscripts, and wait for a big explosion when it goes on the shelves.
