The middle-aged beautiful woman is the mountain owner of the Rotten Mountain, and she seems to be very familiar with Elder Kuying. As soon as she saw the people from the Xuantian Sword Sect arriving, she brought her disciples to say hello.
Lankushan is also a first-class sect, but it is naturally less powerful than some first-class sects in business. However, it had some connections with Xuantian Sword Sect in the past, so the relationship was very good. Xuantian Sword Sect seemed to have helped Lankushan a lot in the past, so Lankushan always remembers this kindness.
The middle-aged beautiful woman is named Zhang Lifang, and the girl behind her is her apprentice Mo Shanshan, who is now the chief disciple of Lankushan.
"Why didn't Headmaster Jian Wuxin come this time? I've been waiting for your Xuantian Sword Sect for several days, and finally I've been waiting for you to come."
As soon as they met, Zhang Lifang said with a smile, without any scruples at all, as if he was afraid that he would not know the relationship between his sect and Xuantian Sword Sect. Nowadays, some sects have no time to hide from Xuantian Sword Sect, and they are still climbing up the rotten mountain. From this It can be seen that a friend in need is a friend indeed, and Lankushan does have good feelings for Xuantian Sword Sect.
"Haha, Sect Leader Zhang, you also know that these are troubled times, so the Headmaster has to deal with some things. This time we have to bring these disciples to participate in the sect martial arts competition." Elder Kuying's withered face, After seeing old acquaintances again, I finally had a little smile.
Hearing this, Zhang Lifang turned his attention to Zhao Jiuge, looked up and down for a moment, and then said with a smile, "This is Zhao Jiuge's Zhao Shaoxia. As expected, he has an extraordinary temperament and a talented person. When the time comes, he will have to take good care of him in the martial arts competition." You, Junior Sister Mo.”
Zhao Jiuge is no longer the young man in the mountains now, and he is already very comfortable in dealing with people, so after hearing Zhang Lifeng's words, he also smiled and said, "It's necessary to take care of me, but Junior Sister Mo is so beautiful, and her strength is not bad either." , I’m afraid you don’t need me to take care of you when I see you.”
As soon as these words came out, Zhang Lifang smiled, and the smile on his face became stronger and stronger. Mo Shanshan on the side was even more shy after being praised by Zhao Jiuge.
At this time, two other figures also came to the side. Seeing this, Zhang Lifang knew it and stopped talking.
There are two figures, one old and one young. The old one is a handsome middle-aged man. He is obviously not very old, but his hair is already covered with some white hair. He is wearing a light blue robe and carrying a flying sword behind his back. He has a delicate appearance. He has a good impression, and with his somewhat messy beard, he seems like a good old man.
Following him was a handsome young man with fair skin. The young man was not very old. He seemed to be a little shy like a little girl. He even pulled the middle-aged man's clothes. Like Mo Shanshan, he seemed to have never seen such a young man. Large surface.
The young man was wearing a sword robe and carrying a flying sword behind his back. His dark eyes were full of curiosity. At this moment, he was staring at Zhao Jiuge without blinking. His scorching gaze made Zhao Jiuge feel a little embarrassed.
The middle-aged man is Shen Guangbo, the master of the Caolu Sword Hall, and the young man behind him is his apprentice Bi Xiaohu, who is also the current chief disciple.
Caolu Sword Hall is also a first-class sect force and a sword cultivator, so it has a close relationship with Xuantian Sword Sect. Disciples of the two sects often compete with each other, and Caolu Sword Hall has always been led by Xuantian Sword Sect. .
"I thought that the Xuantian Sword Sect would not participate in the martial arts competition this year. Then I would have no backbone. It would be great if I came now. By then, our disciples of the Caolu Sword Hall will be with you, the disciples of the Xuantian Sword Sect."
This Shen Guangbo seemed to be more direct. When they met, he couldn't help but complain like Elder Xue Qingfeng. They were all from the same generation and generation, so they were naturally very familiar with each other.
And Shen Guangbo even expressed his position, saying that he was on the side of Xuantian Sword Sect, and his voice was not deliberately hidden. It was obvious that he also deliberately said it to some people present.
Zhang Lifang on the side also nodded, expressing his support for Xuantian Sword Sect. No matter what, Xuantian Sword Sect will always be the leader.
The actions of Lankushan and Caolu sword hall suddenly made the atmosphere in the scene a little subtle, making it clear that just like forming cliques, although there are many sects with grudges in the annual sect competition, they will not break up with each other. , on the surface, the most they could do was to kill someone during a sect competition. This was all tacitly understood, but this year Wan Dao Sect took the lead in pulling in several sects. Zhang Lifeng and Shen Guangbo couldn't stand Wan Dao Sect. Just an act.
The conflict between Wan Dao Sect and Xuantian Sword Sect has become aroused, and it is clear that one day there will be an outcome. However, this year the situation has obviously changed a bit. It seems that at this time, it has suddenly become a choice. Taking sides, some other sects were silent and wavering in their hearts, but they would not make decisions rashly.
It's just that the behavior of Caolu Jiantang and Lankushan was undoubtedly a trigger, which made some wavering sects suddenly start to think. Although they have not made any gestures to express their attitude, they always have to choose an outcome in the sect competition. , otherwise you will suffer heavy casualties by then.
The atmosphere in the scene was a bit subtle at this moment. Although many sects did not say anything, they had already chosen to stand with Wandao Sect in their hearts, unless they were sects that had grievances with Wandao Sect. After all, Wandao Sect seems to be unpopular now. There is a lot of strength, but after a grudge, no one else will bow down and choose Wandao Sect no matter who they are.
Hua Lingsu and Yuan Yixiu shook their heads slightly when they saw their actions. They felt that their behavior was a bit reckless. Even if they were on the side of Xuantian Sword Gate, they would not be so eager to show it. After all, they showed their attitude at the critical moment. Maybe it can play a key role.
Although Baihua Valley and Xuankong Guan also recognized their Xuantian Sword Sect, they did not act rashly on the surface. After all, the matter was of great importance, and if it affected everyone, everything would be lost. But now, even if it is Neither of them quite understood how things could turn out like this, but they were used to seeing sects fighting and the weak eating the strong, so they didn't make a fuss.
"Xiaohu, why don't you come over and pay a visit to your senior brother Zhao? I'll have to trouble others to take care of you during the sect martial arts competition." Then, Shen Guangbo quickly pulled Bi Xiaohu forward and said loudly.
"I've met Senior Brother Zhao."
Bi Xiaohu's movements were a little reserved, he bent down slightly and shouted respectfully. Zhao Jiuge nodded with a smile.
Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but think. Sure enough, wherever there are people, there will be fights. This time it seems that things have gone too far. This is no longer a conflict between the Xuantian Sword Sect and the Wandao Sect, but a conflict between the two camps.
Not far away, a middle-aged man in a golden and black robe was looking at this side with a gloomy expression. He wanted to step forward but hesitated, weighing the pros and cons in his mind.
The man is the master of Shui Yue Zhai. Shui Yue Zhai and Jujian Sect have had a long-standing feud, and the two sects are geographically close, so fights often occur. In addition, the two sects quarreled over the last time they snatched a spiritual medicine. Very big.
This time, the master of Shuiyuezhai clearly felt that the atmosphere was subtle, and his old enemy, Jujian Sect, chose Wandao Sect. Naturally, he, Shuiyuezhai, would not be his opponent. He was afraid that Jujian Sect would take advantage of this opportunity. The sect martial arts competition was about to attack the disciples, so he also wanted to choose a helper. Wandao Sect, he was still unwilling to choose, so he could only choose Xuantian Sword Sect. After seeing the actions of Caolu Sword Hall and Lankushan, he hesitated. , I felt that it was not good to be in public, so I decided to talk to the people of Xuantian Sword Sect privately at night.
"Hahaha, aren't these people from Xuantian Sword Sect? There are so many of us, but we have been waiting for you for a long time."
At this time, Master Fu Qing also came forward, pretending to be a host, and laughed to welcome the arrival of Xuantian Sword Sect.
Although the two sides have been grudges for a long time, they did a good job on the surface. Master Fu Qing smiled brightly, and those who didn't know thought he was an old friend he hadn't seen for many years, but there was something in his words.
"Haha, Master Fu Qing is too polite, but doesn't this sect martial arts tournament start tomorrow?"
Xue Qingfeng also responded with a smile, as if many things had never happened, and both parties were talking hypocritically.
"Well, it turns out that we are guests, and the sect martial arts competition will start tomorrow. I will ask someone to take you to have a rest first. After working hard for so long, the place to stay has been arranged for you." Master Fu Qing looked on his face. No change, he said with a smile, but with the arrival of the Xuantian Sword Sect men, he had already made plans in his mind.
Hearing this, Elder Xue Qingfeng nodded quickly to indicate that it was okay. Firstly, he did not want to have too much entanglement with other sects. Instead, he had been running around for dozens of days, but he was a little tired. His disciples will participate in the sect martial arts competition tomorrow and need to rest. .
Immediately, Master Fu Qing called his disciples and led a group of people from Xuantian Sword Sect towards their residence. Naturally, Wandao Sect made sufficient preparations for this feast and specially set aside two peaks for people to rest. One is for the sects who come to watch the fun, and one is for the sects who come to participate in the sect competition. The two sides complement each other and disturb each other.
Soon, Xuantian Sword Sect's group, led by two disciples from Wandao Sect, came to the resting mountain peak and settled down. The mountain environment was good, and the Xuantian Sword Sect's disciples were also very satisfied, and stayed at Xuantian Sword Sect. The door is almost the same. Behind a mountain of cultivation, the disciples are meditating and practicing, preparing to be in the best condition for tomorrow's martial arts competition. Several elders also sat down nearby. Anyway, on other people's territory, say Nothing can go wrong.
Zhao Jiuge was not ready to practice yet because he was preoccupied with things. After seeing that cold face just now, Zhao Jiuge felt waves in his heart again, and the things he had always wanted to forget resurfaced again.
I don’t know where love started.
Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but let out a sigh. Is it true that emotional matters are so complicated? Even if his master is extremely skilled, he is still hurt by the word "love". Could it be that he has to make the same mistake again, just like his master Jian Wuxin? Zhao Jiuge couldn't help but smile when he thought of this.
But soon his worries were replaced by the current worries. When he came to Xiaguang Peak today, not only the elders in the sect, but also he found that there were several people surrounding Master Fu Qing, which meant that there were at least six sects. Together, this situation is not good news for Xuantian Sword Sect.
At least in order to maintain their innocence, the other sects had various conversations and did not show such intimacy. I don’t know if Wandao Sect deliberately gave Xuantian Sword Sect some power. The six sects joined forces and directly made it clear to Xuantian Sword Sect. Looking at the door, Zhao Jiuge felt a headache when he thought of this, knowing that tomorrow's martial arts competition would not be that simple.
