C12 Chapter 12
"Liu Xiang, Morley, Liu Xiang's grandfather and I hope that you two can leave with Xun Feng tomorrow and train in the martial arts world."
In the study room, Liu Ge and Liu Xiang spoke with anticipation.
"I really want to explore the martial arts world!" Liu Xiang was naturally happy to hear that she could venture into the Jianghu. However, she was also a bit worried when she was with Xun Feng and the other two. "But, can Brother Feng promise to take us with him?"
"Hehe, Xiang'er, you have become a lot more obedient since Xun Feng and the others came; you are no longer as foolish as you were before." Liu Ge looked at his daughter with a hint of expectation and praise in his eyes.
"Where's the change?" Although Liu Xiang said this, she was also confused in her heart: Why can't you be more natural in front of Xun Feng and Yue Wu? Why are you always so restrained? Liu Xiang hadn't taken anyone seriously all these years, but every time she saw Xun Feng and Yue Wu, she felt that they were not born in the same world as each other. The two of them emitted a noble aura all the time, so Liu Xiang didn't dare to act impudent like she was facing others when facing them.
"I've talked to Xun Feng before, he has already promised to take you with him." Liu Ge smiled at the two of them, then waved his hand. "You two can go down now to prepare. Tomorrow, we'll leave together with them."
"Yes, Master."
"En!"
To Morley, being able to follow two super experts was definitely a good thing, and he would definitely be able to learn a lot of things. On the other hand, to Liu Xiang, being able to leave Liulan Mountain and wander in the Jianghu was already something to be very happy about, so the two of them happily went to pack their luggage.
As Morley and his companion left happily, Liu Ge sighed to himself and said, "Hopefully, it will be of some use."
The next day.
Xun Feng and Liu Ge laughed as they walked out of the entrance of the Sword Sect. Yue Wu, Xun Feng, and Liu Ge stood side by side at the front of the crowd, while Liu Xiang and Yun Dan held hands behind them.
Outside the door, Morley was driving a luxurious carriage which was seen as luxurious by ordinary people as it slowly drove towards Xun Feng.
When the carriage stopped in front of the crowd, Morley walked up to Liu Ge, knelt on one knee, and said, "Master, disciple will leave now. I hope Master will take care of himself in the future."
"Master does not ask you to create a lot of reputation, but hopes that you can be upright with respect to people and things." Flowing Song smiled and helped Morley up.
"I will listen to Master's teachings."
Liu Ge nodded, then turned to Liu Xiang, "Xiang'er, don't be like this anymore. Listen to Young Master Xun Feng and don't give them any trouble."
"Daddy, don't worry. I'm not a child anymore." Liu Xiang pouted and said, "You always treat me like a child and talk as if I'm the one who only knows how to cause trouble."
Liu Ge patted Liu Xiang's shoulder and laughed, "Haha, if that's the case, then that's for the best."
"Then we're leaving."
Xun Feng went around Yue Wu and got into the carriage. Yue Wu cupped her hands towards Liu Ge and led Yun Dan and Xun Feng onto the carriage.
Liu Ge looked at the carriage and smiled. He turned around and said to Liu Xiang and Morley, "Hehe, young people are impatient. You guys can go too."
Liu Xiang and Morley nodded lightly and turned to walk towards the carriage at the same time.
There was one more person inside the carriage, but it didn't change much. Yun Dan and Liu Xiang sat together, while Xun Feng and Yue Wu sat together. The four chatted leisurely as they watched the scenery outside the carriage.
"Big brother, where are we going now?" Yun Dan leaned into Xun Feng's arms.
"Head south to find your father." Xun Feng hugged Yun Dan tightly, and said with a smile: "Didn't we agree on it before Liulan Mountain?"
"Yes." Yue Wu nodded lightly and asked Xun Feng again, "Which way do we go?"
"Do you want to go to the Feng Country to take a look?" Xun Feng asked, but before Yue Wu could reply, he continued, "I've never been there before, I would really like to go and have a look."
"Then let's head for the Feng Country." Yue Wu smiled meaningfully, and then said, "I heard that there are many delicious and fun things about Feng Country, and it's a rare opportunity …"
Liu Xiang and Yun Dan didn't say anything, either because they didn't know the way, or because they felt that all they had to do was follow Xun Feng and Yue Wu, and that the rest wasn't something they needed to think about.
"..."
At Yu Feng Town.
"Chen Mu, are you all paying attention now?"
Liu Tie asked Chen Mu expressionlessly. That day, Chen Mu escaped with Black-robed Man. As for Wu Han, he was still afraid of being followed after escaping into the forest, so he walked around the forest to make sure he was safe before returning to Yu Feng Town.
Wu Han, who lost his life, wasn't willing to go back to the main hall and accept the punishment. Plus, as a hitman, he couldn't give up his mission just because he failed once. Now, he also thought that the main reason for his failure this time was because he shouldn't face his target head-on. If he used an assassination technique, he would definitely succeed.
"Yes, ever since they came out of the Canghai Sword Sect, our people have been secretly investigating them." Actually, Chen Mu didn't really want to face Xun Feng anymore. He clearly knew that Xun Feng wasn't someone they could deal with, even if another ten of them were to come, it would be impossible for him to complete the mission. Unfortunately, his superior Wu Han still wouldn't give up, so as his subordinate, he could only follow his orders.
In Chen Mu's opinion, the best course of action was to ask for reinforcements from the main hall. Previously, Wu Han, Guan He and the other three people had all been killed by Xun Feng alone; not to mention that the girl with Xun Feng, Yue Wu, was not easy to deal with either. Chen Mu did not believe that Wu Han could get any benefits from these two people, and even if the mission failed, Chen Mu's punishment would at most be reduced to red iron.
Wu Han looked at Chen Mu, who was lost in thought, and sighed, "Are you thinking about why I want to continue the assassination?"
"This subordinate would not dare."
"There's nothing to be afraid of, and you're right to think so." Wu Han spoke as if he was talking to himself, "Zuo Xiangzhu told Guan He and me when we accepted this mission that if we failed, we would be abandoned for good and that we would be imprisoned forever. So even if I die, I can't go back to the main hall."
"..."
Seven Stars Mountain.
Nan Lee was looking at the few pages in his hand, and his brows were frowning more and more. Liu Yuan, who was standing beside Nan Lee, also noticed Nan Lee's abnormality and couldn't help but glance at Ye Feng who sent these messages; Ye Feng, who felt Liu Yuan's gaze, gently sent a distress message to Liu Yuan.
"Pavilion Master." Liu Yuan shouted.
"Elder Liu has seen it too, right?" Nan Lee put down the paper.
Liu Yuan nodded without saying anything. Nan Lee continued, "Since when did such a character appear in the martial world? One move from him forced Elder Hu to throw away the weapon in his hand. Even I couldn't do that."
"Pavilion Master is too modest." Ye Feng said: "The Pavilion Master's Divine Arts must be invincible in the martial arts world."
"You would say something like that?" Nan Lee shook his head with a bitter smile and then asked Liu Yuan, who was beside him, "What do you think of these two?"
"To have such strength at such a young age, Pavilion Master must want to bring these two into the pavilion." Liu Yuan understood Nan Lee too well, he wouldn't let go of any opportunity to increase Sword Sacrifice Pavilion, these two young people who suddenly appeared in the martial arts world had absolute power, Nan Lee would definitely think of all the ways to pull them into Sword Sacrifice Pavilion.
"Yes, we can't let such a talent go." Nan Lee nodded.
"However, their origins are practically untraceable. Although they are very powerful, they are too mysterious. There shouldn't be anyone who would dare to use people like them." Liu Yuan said thoughtfully.
"You don't have to worry about that. Those who dare not use this kind of person are cowards that lack confidence. Only by being able to tolerate the flaws of others can they become the king!" Nan Lee said boldly.
Liu Yuan knew Nan Lee's idea had already been decided, so he didn't say anything more, and Ye Feng certainly wouldn't say anything more. Although Liu Yuan was also Nan Lee's right-hand man, but Nan Lee's position in his heart couldn't be compared with Liu Yuan's.
"Ye Feng."
Liu Yuan called the quiet Ye Feng and asked lightly, "Can you find the whereabouts of these two people?"
"Ever since we came down from the Liulan Mountain, we have been lacking in manpower, and have yet to have the strength to pay attention to these two people." Ye Feng shook his head and said, "I will find them in the shortest time possible."
"The sooner the better. Let's go down and make the arrangements." Nan Lee nodded.
"..."
Feng Country, on a road.
"Brother Feng, a horse died while blocking our carriage."
Morley stopped the carriage, turned around and said to Xun Feng in the carriage. If anything happened along the way, Morley would report it to Xun Feng first. He only waited for Xun Feng's instructions. It was not intentional, but a natural course of action.
"I'll go down and take a look." As she spoke, Yun Dan jumped down from the carriage, followed by Liu Xiang.
After Xun Feng and Yue Wu got off the car, their first reaction was to look around before walking towards Yun Dan and the other two.
Xun Feng lightly kicked the dead horse and squatted down to watch for a while. Then he said, "It didn't die for long. Its owner should have left not long ago. Maybe it's right in front."
"This horse died in a really bad place. If we don't get it to the side, our car won't be able to get through." Yun Dan said in dissatisfaction.
"In any case, we have to move it now." Liu Xiang said as she looked at both sides of the road.
Since he wanted to take action, he had to do it himself. Among the five, only Xun Feng and Morley were male, so this kind of labor would only fall on them. If they wanted to do this kind of work, they would have to wait until the sun rose from the west.
Seeing that Morley consciously rolled up his sleeves, Xun Feng's mouth slightly curled up. He kicked the dead horse in the middle of the road, and under everyone's astonished gazes, the horse floated to the side of the road, opening up a path.
"This horse is truly pitiful. He's already dead, yet he's still being treated like this." Yue Wu looked at Xun Feng as if she was looking at an unforgivable villain.
"Big brother is so bad!" Yun Dan also stuck her tongue out at Xun Feng.
"Ha ha!" Xun Feng smiled and completely ignored Yue Wu's and Yun Dan's malicious intentions. He then looked at the four of them and said, "It's almost dark. Let's hurry up and go."
Xun Feng was the first to walk. Yue Wu and the others also walked back to the carriage with a sigh. The carriage continued moving forward.
"Ah …"
Before he could get far, Yun Dan, who was still climbing up the window, shouted again.
"What's the ghost's name?" Xun Feng opened his eyes.
Yun Dan pointed outside the car and said without looking back, "There are two people lying on the road. Are they dead?"
"Wu Tie didn't even see it. How come only you saw it?" Xun Feng thought Yun Dan wanted to use the dead horse to make them happy, so he pushed Yun Dan back onto the bench.
"My eyes are shining!" Yun Dan couldn't get rid of Xun Feng's hand and stared at him angrily.
Just when Xun Feng and Yun Dan were staring at each other with their eyes wide open, a light breeze blew past the carriage. Yue Wu, who was beside Xun Feng earlier, had already left the carriage.
On the side of the road, Yue Wu turned them over and Xun Feng saw a young girl and a boy around ten years old lying on the ground. Both of them were very pale and looked like a pair of siblings.
When Yue Wu stopped, Xun Feng, who was still on the carriage, asked, "How's the situation?"
"He just fainted, but this boy seems …" Yue Wu shook her head and didn't continue speaking.
"Sister Yue Wu, what happened to him?" Yun Dan came to Yue Wu's side and looked fixedly at the boy with her fiery eyes.
"I can't see anything wrong with his body either. I can only feel that his heartbeat will stop at any time." Yue Wu looked at this child, who was not even ten years old yet was so close to death, with a trace of sorrow on her face.
Morley and Liu Xiang also remained silent, silently looking at the two strangers who fainted in front of them.
At this point, Xun Feng walked out of the carriage with a water bag. He helped the unconscious woman up but was unable to get her to enter the water smoothly. Or do you intend to just watch them sleep in this wilderness while you wait for the jackals to come and have a hearty meal? "
Hearing Xun Feng's voice, the four of them finally moved. Morley carried the boy and entered the carriage. Yun Dan and Liu Xiang followed Morley to take care of the boy, while Yue Wu walked towards Xun Feng.
"You know the cause of the boy?" Yue Wu turned her head to look at the boy and asked Xun Feng in a low voice.
Xun Feng sighed without lifting his head, "He was poisoned. If I'm not wrong, with his current condition, he can only live for five days at most."
"Hmm?" Yue Wu could not understand. If it was poison, then she could more or less tell that it was caused by some kind of abnormal body, and it was impossible for him to be like this boy, who seemed to have an innate disease. Yue Wu asked, "What kind of poison is it? I have never seen such a poisonous substance. "
"It's normal that you haven't seen it, but you should have heard of it. This poison doesn't belong to the martial arts world …" Xun Feng looked at Yue Wu with a sad expression.
From the beginning till now, Xun Feng had never touched the boy or even looked at him for a long time, but he understood the poison. Adding to the sadness in her eyes, if Yue Wu could not see anything, then she would not be Yue Wu.
However, Yue Wu didn't ask any further. Even though she wanted to know what Xun Feng hadn't finished yet, she didn't pursue the matter. Xun Feng also didn't say anything else, so the two of them just stood there in silence.
"Brother, what do we do now?" Yun Dan came to their side once again, breaking the silence between the two. Yun Dan didn't know what Xun Feng and Yue Wu said just now, but she could tell that Xun Feng was in a strange state.
Yue Wu could not tolerate Yun Dan's gaze. Afraid that Yun Dan would think too much into it, she explained, "It's not my business for him to be like this right now."
"Let's go, let's take them into the city first." Xun Feng took a deep breath and adjusted his mood. He smiled at Yue Wu and said, "You can carry her to the car."
"Why don't you carry him yourself?" "Since he replied, of course, Yue Wu will not be courteous to him." This kind of physical work, of course you can do it. Do you really need us little girls to do it? "
"Men and women shouldn't be so intimate with each other."
"Who do you think those things are?" Hugging, hugging and feeding the water, you can't even touch a single spot. " With that, Yue Wu left Xun Feng and the unconscious woman to lead Yun Dan away.
"Sister Yue Wu, what were you talking about with your brother just now?"
After a short distance away from Xun Feng, Yun Dan finally couldn't hold back her curiosity and asked, "Why is brother like that?"
"He probably remembered someone." Yue Wu turned around and looked at Xun Feng, who was behind her. Her calm eyes were mixed with other emotions. Usually, those who talked and laughed without restraint hide a story in the depths of their heart, a sad person.
"Who did you think of?" "This is the first time I've seen big brother act this way …" Yun Dan thought about Xun Feng's expression from before. No matter who it was, someone who could make Xun Feng so upset must be very important in her heart.
