Xiang Nan pondered for a while, and said: "Master, let's go back to the sect. We have already killed several masters of the sky-peeping realm, and it is enough to get angry. Besides, they haven't done anything to me."
Xu Caiyue glanced at Xiang Nan: "Are you scared?"
Xiang Nan nodded: "Yes, I'm afraid. I've traveled all the way from west to east, and I never know how to write fear, because I'm dead."
"But the master's kindness to me is as great as a mountain. If I hurt the master because of me, even if I die a hundred times, I will not be able to atone for my sin."
"The Profound Sky Sect has been eyeing us all the time. There have been high-level fighters from the Profound Profound Sky Sect in the Western Regions before. I fear that they will harm Master."
Xu Caiyue said: "If they want to come, just come, I am your master, if even I don't protect you, who else in this world will protect you?"
Xiang Nan was moved and wanted to speak, when he heard a voice from afar.
"Ahead is Xu Caiyue and Peak Master Xu."
The voice came from a very far direction, and a middle-aged man was seen walking forward with his hands behind his back.
This person took one step, and it was hundreds of miles away. In three simple steps, he had already arrived in front of Xiang Nan and the other two.
The middle-aged man clasped his fists at Xu Caiyue and said, "I am the Deputy Commander of the Three Armies of the Western Regions, Zhou Zhuo."
"In the early years, the Western Regions offended China, and when the two countries were at war, it was Mr. Tiandao who intervened in person to avoid the disaster of destroying our country in the Western Regions."
"Such a kindness, we never dare to forget, since Peak Master Xu came here in person today, we will be sure of the friendship of the landlord."
Xiang Nan took a look at Zhou Zhuo, and found that he couldn't see through this person's realm, probably not under Xu Caiyue.
Then Xu Caiyue frowned and said: "You have said good things, and you have done bad things. This time, the Western Regions intercepted and killed my apprentice in black and white, and your military in the Western Regions also has a share. How do you say that?"
Zhou Zhuo said with a smile: "I already know about this matter, it was the actions of the middle and middle level generals of our army, and our high level didn't know about it."
As he said that, Zhou Zhuo waved his hand, and a person in the distance was bound by vitality, and he was pulled in front of him.
Wearing the military uniform of a middle-ranking general, this man stood beside Zhou Zhuo with a panicked face, his arms wrapped around by vitality.
That Zhou Zhuo waved his hand and said, "Apologize to Xiang Xiaoyou."
The middle-level general was obviously unwilling, but he didn't dare to disobey Zhou Zhuo's order, so he could only bow to Xiang Nan.
"Is this the end?" Xu Caiyue said indifferently: "Apprentice, bow to him too, after the master kills him to avenge you."
"Hey, Master Xu, you can't do things like this." That Zhou Zhuo said hastily: "Although I am a high-ranking military officer, I am still a person in martial arts after all. I am still clear about the rules of the martial arts world."
"The grievances and hatred between the juniors are free to be resolved by the juniors. Those of us who are elders must not interfere."
"If all high-level warriors in the world start slaughtering juniors at will, then the bloodline of this martial arts world will be cut off."
What Zhou Zhuo said is correct, this is an unwritten rule in the world of martial arts, because high-level martial artists are too powerful, if there is no restriction, as long as they wave their hands, tens of thousands of young martial artists will die instantly.
Therefore, the fight between peers must be resolved by peers themselves, and even masters and elders cannot forcibly interfere.
Xu Caiyue said: "Then what do you guys do when you come to chase and kill my apprentice?"
Zhou Zhuo said: "There are only a few sky-gazing realm warriors who chased and killed Xiang Nan, and you have killed almost all of them now."
"Actually, I've noticed you since the moment you stepped into the Western Regions, but I didn't stop you when you killed people, because it was those warriors who saw the heavens who committed the crimes themselves, and they deserved it when they died."
"And one thing, Master Xu, don't forget."
Zhou Zhuo said with a smile: "Xiang Nan is from the Central Plains, but he was hunted down in our Western Region territory, and you are also from the Central Plains, but you chased us to kill people in the Western Regions. This is unreasonable anyway."
"Over the years, I have committed crimes in the Central Plains, and countless people have been killed by you Central Plains. Have you ever seen my Western Region masters go to the Central Plains to collect debts?"
"Things should be kept in order, and one code should be one code, and there should be no confusion."
Zhou Zhuo's tone was very calm, neither aggressive nor humble.
Xu Caiyue thought for a while, finally nodded, and said: "What you said makes sense, I can't refute it."
"Thank you, Master Xu, for your understanding." Zhou Zhuo cupped his fists and said, "You also know that the situation in the Western Regions is very chaotic. Most of the time, it is not our military that has the final say. Those dark forces have been rooted here all year round, which is also a headache for our military. one thing."
"What's more, you also know who the mastermind this time is. It's not that we in the Western Regions want to make things difficult for Xiang Nan, but others are making things difficult."
When Zhou Zhuo mentioned others, he was alluding to Tianxuanzong.
Zhou Zhuo said again: "But don't worry, I will go to those dark forces in person next time, and I will give you a satisfactory explanation."
"Okay." Xu Caiyue nodded and said, "Since you said it yourself, I will believe you once, Xiang Nan, let's go."
Xu Caiyue released a burst of vitality, wrapped Xiang Nan and flew eastward.
After Xu Caiyue walked away, a murderous intent suddenly appeared on Zhou Zhuo's smiling face.
He turned his head to look at the bound general, and said coldly: "Do you know how much trouble you have caused!"
The general was so frightened that he couldn't speak a word.
Zhou Zhuo said: "In front of outsiders, I protect you, it is to protect the face of my military in the Western Regions."
"But now, it's time for you to pay for your own stupidity."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Zhuo waved his hand, and the bound general turned into fly ash without even making a sound.
"As a general in the army, I can't contribute to the army, but cause trouble everywhere. What use do I need you." Zhou Zhuo shook his sleeves and left angrily.
…
"Master, I miss my relatives and want to go home and have a look." Xiang Nan said.
Xu Caiyue said: "Well, but don't reveal my identity, I find it troublesome."
"Yes." Xiang Nan nodded.
The Xiang family is located in the southwestern border, not far from the Western Regions. With Xu Caiyue's flying speed, it will arrive in less than half an hour.
When the two came to Qingshi Town, they found that the town was very lively. Xiang Nan only found out after some inquiring. It turned out that today is a big day.
The two most respectable figures in Qingshi Town celebrate their birthdays! One is the 80th birthday of Mr. Xiang Zhanxiong of the Xiang family, and the other is the 60th birthday of the head of the Wang family, Wang Changhe.
Because Xiang Nan entered the Haoran School and shined in the 12th joint examination, the status of the Xiang family has risen, and it can be said that there is no one in the limelight.
But then, it was heard that the Blazing Fire Sect had returned to the Tianxuanzong, and that the Tianxuanzong had personally accepted Wang Xiaoyun as a core disciple to cultivate. In this way, the limelight of the Wang family, which had just been suppressed by the Xiang family, rose again.
The forces behind these two families represented no one would dare to provoke them within the small Qingshi City.
So the city lord Hong Zhen, who was about to be promoted to an official position, acted as the host himself before leaving and invited the two birthday stars to the city lord's mansion to celebrate their birthdays together.
Xiang Nan felt ashamed, he didn't know his grandfather's birthday, what's more, his grandfather and Wang Changhe had the same birthday.
