"I wonder who City Lord Tang and Young Master Xiang are?" Qing Gui asked with a hint of doubt.
Tang Zhan smiled lightly and said, "He is my nephew."
"Nephew?" Qing Gui asked with some doubts in his heart.
He almost knew everything about Xiang Shaoyun's first visit to the City of Sin and Blood a few years ago, but he had never heard that Xiang Shaoyun had such a relationship with Tang Zhan, which made him wonder.
Qing Gui quickly came back to his senses and said with a smile, "Master Xiang and I also have a great friendship. In the future, I, the Ghost Face Sect, will need a lot of care from Lord Tang!".
Qing Gui can show off to others, but he can't do that to people like Tang Zhan. After all, they both live in the same city. It would be best if there could be some help between the two.
"Haha, Master Qing is too polite. Who doesn't know that the Ghost Face Sect has stood firm in the City of Sin and Blood for thousands of years? Maybe our City Lord's Mansion will still rely on you a lot," Tang Zhan responded with a laugh.
Xiang Shaoyun listened and knew that although they were respectful to each other, he could feel their intention to test each other, and secretly said in his heart, "It is a wise move to bring Uncle Tang here this time, otherwise the green ghost state test will be absolutely impossible." You won't be so polite, even if the Ghost Eater is suppressing the scene, he is indeed a person who has lived a long time to become a spirit!"
Afterwards, Qing Gui asked his servants to serve a lot of good wine and food, and entertained Tang Zhan and Xiang Shaoyun. However, Qing Gui at the table was quite indifferent. It seemed that he could also feel Qing Gui's attitude toward Xiang Shaoyun. His attitude was not that enthusiastic, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Xiang Shaoyun didn't say anything at the table. He didn't ask Qinggui for help, let alone anything about the Rakshasa girl, and finally left with Tang Zhan.
Ghost Eater waited for Tang Zhan and Xiang Shaoyun to leave and stayed behind and said angrily, "Little Qingqi's wings are hard now, you can ignore me as your master!".
Qinggui immediately showed a look of fear and said, "Master, what are you saying? Disciples treat master like reborn parents."
"What you say is better than what you sing. My young master is right in front of you. What is your attitude towards him?" Ghost Eater asked.
"I have no disrespect towards Mr. Xiang!" Qing Gui said somewhat against his will.
"Haha, it seems that you feel that Master is now inferior to you in strength, and there is no way for you to tell the truth. Very good, I will take your uncle away from here. In the future, we will sever the relationship between master and disciple. You can walk away from Yangguan Road. , I will walk on my single-plank bridge, and it will no longer be relevant!" Ghost Eater shouted in anger.
Immediately afterwards, he waved his hands and prepared to leave the hall.
Qing Gui quickly said, "Master, calm down first and listen to me." After a pause, he said what he was thinking and said, "Master, I don't know how you can be sure that Young Master Xiang is Lord Xiang Dingtian, but I I always feel that it doesn’t look like...".
Before Qing Gui finished speaking, the Devouring Ghost had already interrupted him and said, "That's enough. Do you think your uncle and I are both blind? Master or not, it's not your turn to guess. You don't You just don’t want to submit to the young master, and you are reluctant to give up your position as the leader. Do you really think that the young master will take a fancy to your achievements? You are naive!”
After the Demon Eater finished speaking, he left the main hall directly and headed towards the place where Lord Red Fire Xing was retreating, without waiting for Qing Gui to say anything more.
Qing Gui watched the Devouring Ghost leave with a complicated expression, and really didn't know what to say.
Indeed, the Ghost Face Sect is a foundation he has worked hard to build over the past ten thousand years. He has accumulated a lot of power. As long as he has an opportunity, he will take advantage of the situation and become the strongest force in the City of Sin and Blood. , especially with the return of Ghost Eater and Red Fire Lord, he felt that an opportunity was not far away.
Now, it is impossible for him to hand over this inheritance to others.
After Xiang Shaoyun returned to the City Lord's Mansion, he chatted with Tang Zhan for a while, and then returned to the Skeleton Gang.
Along the way, Xiang Shaoyun thought a lot. He knew very well that this time the power of the Ghost Face Sect could not be borrowed. Originally, he naively thought that with the presence of the Ghost Eater, the Green Ghost could be submissive, but this time It's all just wishful thinking on his part.
"It's better to rely on yourself than to rely on others. It seems that I am still a little naive!" Xiang Shaoyun muttered to himself after taking a deep breath.
Tuoba Wan'er snuggled into his arms and whispered, "Tell me about your situation. Maybe I can ask the Holy Court to help you!"
At this time, Xiang Shaoyun remembered that there was a beauty beside him, held her in his arms and talked about his return to the Purple Ling Sect to regain his foundation.
Xiang Shaoyun told Tuoba Wan'er the cause and effect once, and had nothing to hide from her.
After hearing this, Tuoba Wan'er said, "Consort, we can go back to the Holy Court and ask the Holy Court to send troops to help you!".
Xiang Shaoyun shook his head lightly and said, "I want to get it back on my own. I know what you mean, but there's really no need!"
"Then I want to go back with you!" Tuoba Wan'er said seriously while holding Xiang Shaoyun and blinking her eyes like bright moons.
Tuoba Wan'er was a very smart woman. She knew Xiang Shaoyun's thoughts and did not insist on the Holy Court sending troops. Instead, she chose to support Xiang Shaoyun's decision.
This made Xiang Shaoyun feel quite moved in his heart, and he felt even more pity and love for her in his heart, and couldn't help but kiss her smooth face.
In an instant, Tuoba Wan'er's face turned as red as the sun, and she buried her head in Xiang Shaoyun's arms.
Xiang Shaoyun gently stroked her green hair, enjoying this rare quiet time, and followed the ripples of the carriage.
After the two returned to the Skeleton Gang, Tuoba Wan'er gently pulled Xiang Shaoyun's clothes and said, "You can come to my room tonight!".
After saying that, she didn't dare to look at Xiang Shaoyun and trotted away.
Xiang Shaoyun looked at her beautiful figure and showed a faint smile of satisfaction. His mood instantly improved a lot, and he sighed in his heart, "What a good Wan'er!".
That night, Xiang Shaoyun still did not go to Tuoba Wan'er, but chose to practice quietly. Anyway, it would take some time to wait for the Skeleton Gang to come back. He must seize every minute to practice, only he can become stronger. , to be able to deal with various things.
Since the battle for the Fourth Academy, Xiang Shaoyun hasn't had time to sort out everything he gained in that battle. He just used this period of time to re-understand it.
Among them, what interests him the most is the Tao of Yin and Yang, and the Tao of the Five Elements, which are definitely the most powerful force among all martial arts.
He understood the way of yin and yang from Mo Ji, but that was just the power he exerted through forcible manipulation, and it had not really reached perfection. He had to further understand it before he could increase his combat power.
Not to mention the Tao of the Five Elements, if he could understand it, it would have a great impact on him perfecting his strongest fighting body.
