Xie Yuling could tell that although there was some dissatisfaction in Su Baiyi's tone, it revealed more warmth. He lowered his head and smiled: "It seems that you and your master have a very good relationship."
Su Baiyi also laughed: "Brother, I have been with you for a few days, and I feel that you have laughed more times just now than in the past few days combined."
"Your master is my seventh uncle." Xie Yuling said lightly.
"Oh." Su Baiyi suddenly realized, "So Qingyilang is your elder brother. I thought your Xie family was a big sect. Although we all have the surname Xie, we are not close to each other."
"My eldest brother and I loved following Uncle Seventh when we were little." Xie Yuling said with a smile, "He is the person I admire most in my life. I haven't seen him for so many years, and I don't know if he is still the same as he was back then, so I asked you a few questions. Sorry for bothering you."
"Is he different now? I heard that he used to be so majestic and powerful in the martial arts world, but now he is just a teacher who cheats his disciples." Su Baiyi shook his head and sighed, "Time makes people grow old."
"No, he's the same as before." Xie Yuling's tone revealed a hint of nostalgia, "He took us to Gusu to play that year, but he lost all his money in the gambling house in Gusu. He could only buy a steamed bun for me and my eldest brother and ate it on the side of the road, while he was drooling with hunger. In the end, he didn't go to the Yuhua Pond that he wanted to go to, didn't climb the Fengyu Tower that he wanted to climb, and didn't watch the Yunqi Lantern Festival that he wanted to watch. He ran back to the Xie family in shame."
“Excuse me, Brother Xie, what do you admire about our Master…” Su Baiyi curled his lips.
"Have you heard about the discussion meeting of our four major families?" Xie Yuling suddenly asked.
Su Baiyi nodded: "I know this. Didn't Qingyilang participate in the Lunding Conference before? It is the place where the young disciples of your four major families compete."
"Yes. Uncle Seven participated in the Lun Ding Conference that year, but that day Helian Xiyue asked him to go to Tianyuntai to watch the Xiyue Fairy's martial arts competition to find a bride. He was very anxious and worried that he would not be able to catch up. Seeing that others were fighting too slowly, he couldn't help but run all over the field. It took him only an incense stick of time to knock down all the young disciples he saw. I was only five years old that year, but I still remember everyone's stunned expressions." Xie Yuling smiled, "It was very refreshing."
Su Baiyi thought for a moment and said, "After all, it is a lifelong event, so it is understandable that Master would do this."
"What's the most important event in life?" Xie Yuling was puzzled.
"My master's lifelong event. Didn't you say that Fairy Xiyue held a martial arts competition to find a husband at Tianyuntai? Could it be that Helian Xiyue is going to go?" Su Baiyi asked.
“Hahahahaha.” Xie Yuling laughed and shook her head, “Neither. They just came to watch the fun! Fairy Xiyue doesn’t even know them.”
"Hey!" Su Baiyi said helplessly, "This is something that Master could do. Wouldn't the people from the four major families be so angry that they die?"
"Originally, the Xie family was counting on Uncle Seven to become famous at this conference, but they didn't expect him to become infamous in the end. However, everyone has seen Uncle Seven's strength." Xie Yuling's expression dimmed slightly. "Forget it, let's not talk about it. Hey, why is there a fire in the house?"
The room was ablaze with fire at this moment. All the members of Diefeng who were sitting there just took the manuscripts on the table into their arms, then gently twisted the inkstone on the table, and the desk caught fire. They stood up and retreated behind Luo Qin.
"I just got the news that you were discovered on the way here." Luo Qin sighed, "We can't stay in this butterfly nest. Retreat and meet up at the academy!"
"Yes." The others responded and immediately pushed the door and walked out.
"Senior Sister, what happened?" Xie Yuling and Su Baiyi asked at the same time.
"We're being watched." Nangong Xier walked outside, "We have to leave here quickly."
"How can we leave? Can we fly away like them?" Su Baiyi pointed ahead, his tone surprised.
Everyone looked up and saw that each of Diefeng's disciples had put on mechanical wings. They took advantage of the momentum to fall to the ground, then stood up again and stayed in the air, but after one last cold look, they flew away into the distance.
"These are mechanical wings. They can only bear the weight of one person and can only fly a short distance. Their martial arts skills are mediocre, and they will just wait for death if they stay here." Luo Qin explained.
"What about us?" Su Baiyi asked.
Luo Qin pulled out two short knives from his waist, suddenly took three steps forward, waved his hands, and shot out two short arrows flying from the darkness: "Of course, we can only kill our way out."
"Four are lying on the left wall, five are hiding behind the right wall, seven are guarding the door, and three are squatting on the roof over there." Nangong Xier closed her eyes and explored the surrounding atmosphere. "A total of nineteen people."
"Junior Sister Nangong is indeed as powerful as the rumors say. She can find their location and number so clearly just by using the Qi-seeking technique. But we are outnumbered, so please be careful." Luo Qin said in a deep voice.
Su Baiyi was puzzled: "Who are they? We don't know anyone in Bafang City, why would they come to kill us?"
"Greedy Wolf." Luo Qin licked his lips. "The most mysterious assassin organization in Bafang City. Many people were quietly wiped out after arriving in Bafang City. It was all their doing. We have been investigating for a long time and can only find out that they are kept here by a major sect in the martial arts world, but the real power behind them has never been determined."
"So we have offended a big sect in the martial arts world?" Xie Yuling waved his sleeve and knocked down a sleeve arrow. "Is it related to this case?"
"Why ask so many questions! Those five on the right belong to me!" Feng Zuojun shouted angrily, swung the bamboo sword in his hand and rushed straight towards the right courtyard wall.
"Wait a minute! Don't be impulsive!" Luo Qin wanted to stop him, but it was too late. Feng Zuojun rushed to the right wall with a bamboo sword in his hand. With a fierce sweep of the bamboo sword in his hand, half of the entire courtyard wall was swept away. Before the assassins who were hiding behind the wall could react, their heads were exposed in front of them. Feng Zuojun stepped on the half of the courtyard wall and shouted, "Get out of here if you know what's good for you!"
The killers were frightened by the loud shout, and then they drew the long swords at their waists and slashed directly at Feng Zuojun.
"You're using a knife on me?" Feng Zuojun raised his eyebrows, and swept the bamboo sword in his hand again, knocking the long knives in the hands of the five people away. "Is this called a knife?" He leaped up, caught a long knife in the air with his left hand, spun it lightly in the air, and then quickly landed, stabbing the long knife straight in the middle. A fierce knife energy burst out from the long knife, directly knocking the five people away, but the long knife broke because it could not withstand the knife energy. Feng Zuojun threw the handle of the knife on the ground with disdain and snorted coldly: "Thank you Yuling!"
"Here." A voice sounded on the roof.
The three assassins who put blowguns to their mouths and were ready to launch a sneak attack on Feng Zuojun broke out in cold sweats.
