Xuanmen Prodigal Son

Chapter 101: The future master of Xuanmen

Views:

After listening to the intermittent and incoherent words in the sound transmission note, Chu Tianxiao narrowed his eyes slightly, but quickly sorted out his thoughts - it should be that Lu Meir, this naughty child, was very curious. She went to eavesdrop on other people's plans and conversations, and learned about a big conspiracy by chance. However... the other party was probably not an ordinary person. After being eavesdropped for a while, he found out that the pursuers were chasing Lu Meir and Xue Yan!

Thinking of this, Chu Tianxiao's heart ached—Lu Meir and Xue Yan's cultivation were both at the lower level of Mingyuan, and they had gained a lot of practical experience in recent days. It was obvious how powerful the "pursuers" who could force them to flee were.

"Damn it!" Chu Tianxiao was a human after all, not a god. After resolving the Qin Yun incident, he thought that the next biggest crisis would be the assassins that Kyoto might send out. However, he did not expect that Lu Meir and Xue Yan would encounter such a change... After all, the other party's target was still himself, and the two of them were just implicated.

"This naughty kid... I really don't know what to say to you this time." The message from Lu Meir was very crucial, which Chu Tianxiao was well aware of, but the fact that she involved herself gave Chu Tianxiao a headache. Although this naughty kid was always punished by him while playing along, how could Chu Tianxiao just ignore anything that happened to her!

"I have to find them quickly... But this kid didn't say where they are. It's probably because it's so dark that I can't tell the surroundings. I guess I have to rely on Ahri." Chu Tianxiao thought to himself, touched the little red fox's fur, stood up, clasped his fists and said to Ning Linyun: "Brother Ning, my two friends..."

"I understand, I understand!" Lu Meir's voice was too loud just now, and Ning Linyun couldn't help but hear it. He saw a strange and playful expression on his face, "This girl's voice sounds very tender, but there is a hint of seductiveness that is fascinating. My drinking buddy, you have good taste, but I didn't expect you to like this..."

"If anything happens, hurry over there. It's not nice to keep a girl waiting. We'll meet again if we're lucky. Don't worry about my face. Really, really!"

Ning Linyun suddenly looked reasonable... but asking for a beating.

Chu Tianxiao shook his head helplessly when he heard that. He knew that the other party had misunderstood him but he didn't have the time to explain. He just clasped his fists and ran away with Ahri in his arms.

After he walked away, Ning Linyun narrowed his eyes, took a sip of wine, and said, "Come out."

Hearing the voice, a figure walked out slowly, with a face full of fat. Who else could it be but Chen Zhengtai from Chen's Tavern

"If you want to watch, just watch boldly. Why are you hiding in the dark? I really don't know what you are afraid of..." Ning Linyun said jokingly, but there was not much malice in his words.

Chen Zhengtai did not respond, but looked at Chu Tianxiao's back, frowned and said: "This is... the future master of Xuanmen?"

Ning Linyun raised his head and took a sip of wine: "It's too early to say this now, too early, too early! But... if Da Zhutian Xingyan is not wrong, he is."

Chen Zhengtai was even more puzzled when he heard this: "It is a blessing for a small person like me to be able to get to know an old drunkard like you. I didn't intend to be greedy for anything. I just wanted to see what a 'big person' like from a distance looks like..."

If those killers who were easily defeated by him knew what he said, they would definitely be extremely ashamed - if people like you are considered small fry, then what are we

Ning Linyun laughed: "So, what's the result?"

"... Very unexpected. I know this person, too. He seems to be the son of Marquis Ziyi. Well, Marquis Ziyi is a person of note, but his only son..."

"You mean to say that he is a loser, right?"

"Ah..." Chen Zhengtai sighed, "As a steward outside Xuanmen, I am actually presumptuous in saying these words, but I still can't figure it out... Why choose a prodigal son as the leader of Xuanmen? Handing over the huge foundation of Xuanmen to a prodigal son... What is the world's respect for him... Alas, I really can't figure it out no matter how hard I try!"

Ning Linyun smiled: "Master's ideas are always wild and unconstrained, otherwise how could he teach us to be the same..."

"You are all monsters." Chen Zhengtai said unhappily.

Ning Linyun smiled without saying a word, picked up the wine jug and began to drink wildly.

"Ah... I'm just worried that it's hard to change a person's nature. Even if this prodigal son really becomes the leader of Xuanmen in the future, I'm afraid he won't be able to cultivate himself and cultivate his character. I'm afraid... he will ruin Xuanmen's foundation..."

Ning Linyun said, "Little boy, this is your vision problem. Master said a long time ago that his founding of Xuanmen was an accident. If he can defeat the right people, so what if he loses everything? Master is such a free and easy person, how could he be so petty that he can't even let go of that little bit of property?"

After hearing this, Chen Zhengtai was speechless: "What do you mean by a worthy defeat? What do you mean by being petty? How can you say that! That's such a huge Xuanmen, that's... the Little Wuji Palace! Even if the Realm Master is so free and easy, it's impossible for him not to care about the rise and fall of the... thing he founded with his own hands!"

"So, you've been running a tavern for too long, and have been distracted by the mundane world. Your vision is just not good! It's hard for me to explain to you..." Ning Linyun said, and suddenly slapped his forehead, as if he suddenly realized something, "Oh, I see. Are you worried that you will have nothing to eat after the Xuan Sect is ruined? It's okay! Don't worry, even if that happens, even if I, Ning Jiusheng, am poor, I will still have no problem supporting you. You won't starve to death!"

Chen Zhengtai didn't know whether to laugh or cry because of this witty remark: "You old drunkard, just make a living for yourself! I don't know where you get your confidence from... Instead of bragging to me, why don't you chase Miss Han first!"

Ning Linyun shrugged and said, "Alright, alright! Don't worry about it. Master has his own plans for all this. Besides... Da Zhutian Xingyan has calculated that he must at least accomplish those three 'weird' things before he is 'qualified' to become the master of Xuanmen. And those three things... None of them is easy to deal with. Don't even think about solving them in the next five or six years. So... things are not going to get very serious yet."

Chen Zhengtai was silent for a moment after hearing this, and then he said, "You didn't mention the word Xuanmen at all, just because you were afraid of putting pressure on him?"

"Yes, it's too early for him to talk about Xuanmen now. He can't even beat you, a deacon outside Xuanmen. Why bother to tell him about it and make him upset? You have to eat one bite at a time. At least I will tell him some things after he reaches the Soul Enlightenment Realm..."

Chen Zhengtai sighed: "You really have good intentions... But there is one thing I don't understand."

"oh?"

"You asked me to take down those assassins, but I didn't kill them. Instead, I released them to you after a while. What did you mean? You should know that they won't give up... Well, although I know that this group of people has no pressure on you, but I remember that you are not a person who likes to cause trouble..."

"Really want to know?"

"Um."

"The reason is simple. I just want to show off in front of the future master of Xuanmen! Look at how shocked that kid was just now. Wahahahaha, maybe there won't be another chance in the future! This is definitely something worth bragging about in my life as the Wine Saint! Wahahahaha..."

Chen Zhengtai: “…”

"Hiccup... Of course, by the way, I also need to let him know that there are always people better than you and inspire his martial arts spirit a little bit..." Ning Linlin returned to his serious tone, but Chen Zhengtai had an expression that said 'I'd be a fool to believe you'.

Ning Linyun coughed softly and said, "Okay, this matter has come to an end. I have seen you now. Go back to where you are. I still need to study the divine wine."

"Speaking of drinking the divine wine... Old drunkard, tell me the truth, are you really not going to help? Those materials are very troublesome."

"I know... but this is the rule. It's the law of cause and effect. It's even more troublesome to get entangled. If it's not necessary, it's troublesome to meet. Let him prove himself first, so that you, a little deacon, won't have to talk nonsense." Ning Linyun took a sip of wine, and a smile suddenly appeared at the corner of his mouth. "But... I have a good idea. When he comes to Wuhuan Wine House next time, hehehehehe... let's do it!"

Chen Zhengtai shuddered violently: "Old drunkard Ning, what evil idea have you come up with?"

"Nothing much, just a feast of wine and women..."

Chen Zhengtai was stunned when he heard this, and then he couldn't help but sympathize with Chu Tianxiao's "encounter" next time he came here...

At the same time, somewhere in a dense forest.

Chu Tianxiao used the feather escape technique to fly forward. As the sky was getting light of dawn and the sun was shining, he suddenly heard a noise in his ears, and then, Lu Meir's rapid voice came without even taking a breath.

"Brother Tianxiao, it seems we can't escape. That woman is too scary. You have to be careful and don't go to the camp. We hid the Sumeru Ring in that cave. Don't worry, we won't help the enemy... Ah!—"
