The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 586: Split into two groups and compete

"Xie Tianshi is the head of Dian Cang!" Shen Bijun said in disbelief.

Regardless of seniority, just in terms of status in the martial arts world, Xie Tianshi's status is still higher than that of Old Lady Shen. After all, the Dian Cang School is much more famous than the Jinzhen Shen family.

Strictly speaking, this kind of person can be compared with the head of Wudang, Dansong Zhenren. How could he also be under the command of Tianzong?

Xiao Shiyilang narrowed his eyes and explained, "If the death of Xie Tianqi and even Xie Xingyun is related to him, and Tianzong has caught him, then he may indeed be a member of Tianzong."

Lian Chengbi said calmly, "Perhaps the Tianzong even played a role in this."

Feng Siniang's eyes turned, "Xie Tianshi is the head of Dian Cang Sect after all, his status and martial arts are higher than Tu Xiaotian. If he is also a member of Tianzong, he is at least a Xiangzhu, and he must know more than Tu Xiaotian."

Yang Kaitai clapped his hands and said, "Not bad!"

"In that case, it looks like we have to go to Dian Cang Mountain." Feng Si Niang sighed leisurely, "I haven't been to the southwest for a long time."

Lian Chengbi nodded, "The southwest is humid, which is good for the skin."

Feng Siniang glared at him and said, "Open your eyes and take a look. What's wrong with my skin?"

Lian Chengbi pointed at Yang Kaitai and said, "I said to him, look at him, he has been exposed to the wind and sun and doesn't know how to take care of himself. His skin is rough. How can such a person chase girls?"

Yang Kaitai looked at the delicate and tender Lian Chengbi and asked incredulously, "Do you still take care of your skin?"

"I don't need it." Lian Chengbi said quietly, "The inner strength I practice has the effect of keeping my youth, so I don't need to take care of it."

Yang Kaitai, "..."

Shen Bijun chuckled, then asked Lian Chengbi, "Should we go together?"

"You can't go." Xiao Shiyilang said suddenly.

"Why?" Shen Bijun didn't understand.

Xiao Shiyilang looked at Lian Chengbi, and Lian Chengbi explained, "Because Xie Tianshi's identity is different, even if I heard his name from Tu Xiaotian, it is not enough to prove it."

Feng Siniang continued, "You heard some names from Tu Xiaotian, the people of Tianzong must know about it, so Xie Tianshi will never reveal any flaws in front of you."

Xiao Shiyilang smiled and said, "So you'd better hurry back to Jiangnan Wugui Villa now, so that those people with ulterior motives can let down their guard."

"Maybe not." Lian Chengbi shook his head.

"Why?" Yang Kaitai asked.

"Because Tianzong has quite a few people in Jiangnan." Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

Feng Siniang asked incredulously, "How many people did Tu Xiaotian tell you before he died?"

"The Buddha said: It cannot be said, it cannot be said." Lian Chengbi said with a leisurely smile, "But Xie Tianshi is the one with the highest status among these people. I hope you don't blame me for giving you the most difficult task."

Xiao Shiyilang laughed and said, "If it's not difficult, then what's the point?"

Xiao Shiyilang's eyes were shining. He was like a wolf living in the wilderness. He had learned loneliness and patience since childhood, but he also possessed indomitable courage. The figure of him swimming against the current, which would always remain in Feng Siniang's heart, was proof of this.

Xiao Shiyilang clapped his hands and laughed.

Feng Siniang was looking at Xiao Shiyilang with a smile on her lips.

Yang Kaitai was looking at Feng Siniang with a firm gaze.

Lian Chengbi sighed. It seemed that he would not be able to see the excitement along the way. "So it is not convenient for my wife and I to go to Dian Cang."

Yang Kaitai said, "Brother Lian, wait for our good news in Jiangnan, and didn't you say that there are people from Tianzong in Jiangnan?" Feng Siniang's eyes sparkled, she looked at Xiao Shiyilang, and said to Lian Chengbi, "It's a good opportunity for us to compete and see who can uncover the secret of Tianzong first and catch the leader of Tianzong."

Lian Chengbi raised his eyebrows, "Are you sure?"

Xiao Shiyilang continued with a smile, "I am not as good as you in martial arts, but secretly investigating and following the clues are my original business, not what you, Master Wugui, are good at."

Lian Chengbi nodded, expressing his understanding. "As a lone thief, you have to investigate beforehand, take action during the incident, and clean up afterward. You have to do all the dirty work by yourself, which is quite hard."

Xiao Shiyilang's mouth twitched, thinking of his own action of quietly coming to give silver today...

What Lian Chengbi said was indeed true, but it was also really unpleasant to hear. Don't you think it would be good to take care of every detail yourself and know every detail by heart?
Xiao Shiyilang thought again of Lian Chengbi's teasing of him when he appeared just now.

This Prince Wuque seems to be different from the one in the rumors?

He is not a gentle, polite and courteous gentleman. Instead, he has a very tricky and weird perspective, and his words are hurtful.

The rumors are totally wrong!
Eh? That's not right. Lian Chengbi has such a great reputation. It would be fine if he was hiding his personality intentionally, but how could his behavior towards others be spread around?
The whole martial arts world has spread the rumor that Master Wuqiu is gentle, refined, easy-going, polite, and taciturn. It is impossible that everyone is talking nonsense with their eyes open.

unless……

Xiao Shiyilang thought carefully and felt that he had never offended him.

Xiao Shiyilang's perception was actually quite sharp. He vaguely felt that Lian Chengbi was targeting him, but he did not harbor any ill will. Instead, he seemed to be teasing and mocking him with a bit of goodwill.

This made Xiao Shiyilang unable to turn hostile, not to mention that he had just acted like a very arrogant person, but in the end he was defeated by the other person with one sword.

That being the case...

"Then let's compete!" Xiao Shiyilang said with a smile, "Let's see whether I, a lone thief, can catch that Young Master Tian first, or Brother Lian can find the leader of the Tian Sect first."

Lian Chengbi couldn't help but laugh and asked again, "Are you sure?"

Feng Siniang and Xiao Shiyilang looked at each other and nodded at the same time, "We are sure!"

"Okay!" Lian Chengbi patted the table, "What's the bet?"

Xiao Shiyilang, "..."

Feng Siniang, "..."

They suddenly found that they seemed to have nothing to offer.

Yang Kaitai immediately said, "I'll pay!"

Feng Siniang glanced at Yang Kaitai, then patted the dagger on the table, "If we lose, these two swords will be given to the sister of the Shen family."

Lian Chengbi shook his head, "A gentleman does not take away what others like, and my wife doesn't use a sword."

Feng Siniang asked, "So what do you want to bet on?"

"If I lose, I will help Xiao Shiyilang speak in the martial arts world." Lian Chengbi suddenly raised a mysterious smile, "If I win, I will ask each of you three a question, and you just need to answer truthfully."

Lian Chengbi's smile was gentle, polite and sincere, but the three of them felt a chill in their hearts.

"Deal?" Lian Chengbi asked.

Feng Siniang made the decision, "Deal!"

Lian Chengbi nodded in satisfaction, pushed the table and stood up, "After eating and drinking, we will be on our way back to Jiangnan tomorrow, so take the time to rest!"
