C9 Chapter 9

Liu Xiang brought Xun Feng and the rest to Flowing Song's study room. When she saw the door was closed, she shouted from the doorway, "Daddy, Senior Brother Morley is back."

The door opened, revealing a scholarly man in his fifties. He was the current head of the Canghai Sword Sect, Liu Ge, and had trained in martial arts since childhood. He was well-known for his powerful martial arts skills, but now he was brimming with scholarly aura and a hint of a smile on his face.

Morley still had to apologize for failing to complete Liu Ge's mission. Thus, he knelt on one knee and apologized to Liu Ge, "Master, I couldn't find Ziyang, please punish him."

Hearing this, Liu Ge was stunned. His gaze met Xun Feng's. Xun Feng only smiled and did not move. However, Yun Dan stepped forward with a sandalwood box in her hand and threw it towards Xun Feng.

"This is the birthday present I, 'Xun Feng', and Sister Yue Wu prepared for your father. You should feel honored, right?"

Yun Dan's words frightened Morley who was still kneeling down. He thought to himself, Master's temper doesn't allow for Yun Dan's rudeness; in front of Master's disciples, which one of them isn't respectful? I also have to be polite to Master, while Yun Dan … Why didn't Xun Feng care about Yun Dan?

However, there was no expression on Morley's face. He caught the embroidered box thrown over by Yun Dan. With a deep feeling, he smiled and said, "Yun Dan hasn't changed at all. Even though we haven't seen her for five years, she's still as naughty as before!"

Flowing Songs also understood why Morley said he couldn't find Ziyang when he heard Yun Dan stress the words' Xun Feng '. He then raised his hand towards Morley and said, "Young Master Ziyang isn't someone that can be seen just by looking. You should get up."

"Yes, Master." Morley slowly got up with surprise and uncertainty. Then, he retreated back to Liu Xiang's side.

"Long time no see, Flowing Song Sect Leader." Xun Feng took a step forward and smiled.

"Yeah." Liu Ge looked at Xun Feng and sighed, "I've always been looking forward to seeing you guys again, but this wait lasted for five years. Even that little girl, Yun Dan, has become so beautiful!"

"Hehe, making Senior Liu Ge wait for five years, this brat's crime is not small."

"Haha, you haven't changed at all." Liu Ge laughed.

"Won't you invite us to take a seat?" Yun Dan looked angrily at Liu Ge and snappily said, "We've been exhausted all this time. Are we still going to stand here and listen to your conversation?"

"Yes, yes, yes, it's my fault for tiring our Little Yun Dan to death." Liu Ge said somewhat embarrassedly, "Come with me. I forgot to invite you into the house when I'm so happy."

Liu Xiang and Morley looked at Lili and Liu Ge with their mouths agape. They had never seen anyone who dared to speak to Liu Ge in such a manner. Even their biological daughter, Liu Xiang, did not dare to be so impudent!

On the way, Morley knew that Brother Xun Feng and Liu Ge were acquainted, but he didn't expect that Yun Dan could be so 'impudent' in front of Liu Ge. Yun Dan didn't take Brother Xun Feng seriously, and Liu Ge wasn't angry at all.

Even Yue Wu was surprised to see Lili and Flowing Song getting along like this, except for Xun Feng, and wondered what their relationship was. As the head of a sect, Liu Ge could actually tolerate Yun Dan to this extent. If one were to say that there was no secret behind it, who would believe it?

Everyone followed Liu Ge and arrived at a courtyard. In the courtyard, there were all kinds of famous flowers, plants, and strange trees that lined up in different places. The pond was very cold, but the yard itself was a part of the world.

"What about this place?" Liu Ge glanced at Xun Feng and the other two one by one. He smiled proudly and said, "I spent a lot of effort to get this out. There are three rooms suitable for you three in this small courtyard."

At this point, Liu Xiang, who was at the side, could not help but lightly pull Morley's corner and whispered, "Who are they? "Why are dad being so courteous to them? This courtyard is usually managed by him himself, even Brother Morley can't just casually come in, right? He actually let the three of them live here today."

"I don't know either." Morley turned his head and smiled awkwardly at Liu Xiang. He had been together with Brother Xun Feng and his sister for more than a month, ever since the beginning of the Tai City, but he still did not know who these two siblings were.

Liu Xiang looked at Morley in disdain and didn't say anything else. She then turned her gaze to Xun Feng and the other two. Someone that her father valued so much was definitely not an ordinary person. If he wanted to know, he could only ask Liu Ge later.

"Yes, this place is not bad." Yun Dan looked around and returned to Xun Feng's side. "We will be staying here for the next few days."

"Hur hur, it's good that you like it. I was worried that it wouldn't enter Yun Danfa's eyes."

"Sect Leader."

A young disciple came out of the courtyard and took five steps toward Liu Ge. He bowed and said, "People from Sword Sacrifice Pavilion are waiting for you in the main hall."

"Got it. Go and greet them first." Liu Ge nodded to the person who came over, then turned around to Xun Feng and asked: "Are you interested to meet this person from Sword Sacrifice Pavilion?"

"You can go by yourself, I … We'll talk about it later. " Xun Feng shook his head.

"Alright then. If you need anything, you can look for Morley. You should be familiar with each other by now." Liu Ge didn't force Xun Feng, he told Morley again, "You have to welcome him well. If you don't satisfy Yun Dan even a little, I'm asking you a question."

"Yes, Master." Although Morley didn't know how Xun Feng and co. could make Flowing Song do that, he could only obey orders with doubt.

"Yes." This is up to you. " Liu Ge nodded. Seeing that Liu Xiang was still here, he said, "Xiang'er should also stay here. I'm familiar with Xun Feng and the others."

"En!" Liu Xiang nodded after glancing at Xun Feng.

"You guys do as you please. I'll go ahead and take a look." As Flowing Song said this, he walked out of the courtyard.

After Liu Ge's figure disappeared, Liu Xiang withdrew her gaze. She turned around to look at Xun Feng and Yue Wu who were standing quietly at the side and said unnaturally, "Please follow me into the house to rest."

Yun Dan had been playing with the fish in the pond. When she heard Liu Xiang's voice, she pushed off with the tip of her toes and with a light leap, floated to Liu Xiang's side. She had a sweet smile on her doll-like face as she said, "Hehe, no need to be so polite, elder sister Xiang'er."

With regards to Yun Dan's actions, Xun Feng and Yue Wu smiled at each other, but Liu Xiang was completely stunned. The distance between the pond and where she was standing was at least fifty to sixty feet, yet Yun Dan could so easily cross it. Such a fast speed, such an exquisite Lightness Skill; even if Liu Xiang herself practiced martial arts from a young age, and trained diligently every day, her talent was still top-notch, and it was not necessarily better than Yun Dan's.

"Elder sister Xiang'er." Seeing that Liu Xiang was just staring at her, Yun Dan called out again, "Elder Sister Xiang'er, what's wrong?"

"Ah, nothing." Liu Xiang came back to her senses and said with a wry smile, "I was distracted for a moment and let you guys down."

"Hehe, Xiang'er, bring them in. I'll go and help them bring the luggage from the carriage." He also knew that Liu Xiang was shocked by Yun Dan's kung fu skills.

"Let's go to the pavilion over there and take a seat. The scenery here is not bad. If we don't take a good look, it would be unjustifiable." Yue Wu pointed to the pavilion on top of the fake mountain.

"Hmm, don't waste such good weather." Xun Feng nodded in agreement and walked forward with Yue Wu.

Looking at the backs of Xun Feng and Yue Wu, Liu Xiang once again fell into deep thought. The man was handsome and the woman was beautiful. Who could step in between these two?

"Elder sister Xiang'er, let's go." Yun Dan didn't notice Liu Xiang's abnormality and dragged her away.

"..."

When Xun Feng and co. entered the Canghai Sword Sect, inside a secret room of an inn in Yu Feng Town, a person wearing a bronze mask was sitting upright in the hall.

"How is it? "Have you found anything?" The bronze mask asked.

"When he entered this town yesterday, our people had already discovered and had been secretly monitoring him. But now, he has reached the Canghai Sword Sect." The person on the left of the six bowed and replied.

"Good, Liu Yi, you did well on this matter." The bronze mask replied, "Continue to monitor. We will act when the people of the hall arrive. If we can complete this mission then we won't have to stay here any longer. We will be able to move into the hall."

To them, only after returning to the Main Hall would they have a higher chance of getting promoted. Here, the chances of getting promoted were quite slim, as long as they returned to the Main Hall, they would be able to receive important treatment. Any one of them could have a higher position than the current Head Palace Master.

"Master, could it be that our mission this time is to remove the Canghai Sword Sect?" Liu Yi asked in a low voice. From his point of view, this mission was definitely extremely important, otherwise there wouldn't be such a reward. Entering the Main Hall, many people in the organization had to spend their entire lives without being able to accomplish this, and now as long as they completed this mission they could transfer to the Main Hall.

"Hehe, I'm not too sure either. When the people from the Main Hall come, even I will have to obediently listen to their orders. Now, we just need to continue monitoring the people from before." The Bronze Mask laughed helplessly.

At this moment, the door was pushed open and two people wearing silver masks appeared at the entrance. The appearance of these two people caused everyone in the hall to suck in a breath of cold air, the quality of the masks was determined by their status in the entire organization, there were only nine people with silver masks in the organization, it could be said to be an extremely high position that was below one person and above ten thousand people. Currently, among the people in the branch hall, the ones with the highest status were only bronze rank, but now there were two silver ranked people.

The person wearing the bronze mask didn't dare to remain seated and immediately stood up to greet them. May I invite the two sirs to take a seat? "

The silver mask looked at the man with the bronze mask and didn't care about the other people sitting on the two chairs in the center of the hall. The man with white clothes on the left directly said, "I'm Wu Han, he's Guan He."

The bronze mask 'Chen Mu', who was still standing tall before, now saluted respectfully together with Chi Tie and the other three people: "Greetings, Lord Wu Han, Lord Guan He!"

"Well, where is the target now?" The white clothed 'Wu Han' asked indifferently.

The green-robed Guan He only nodded slightly and didn't move again.

"Reporting to the two sirs, he entered and stayed in the Canghai Sword Sect today." Chen Mu replied respectfully.

"So it's like that …" Wu Han crossed his arms in front of his chest and asked: "What do you think we should do?"

"Wait." Guan He coldly said one word and closed his eyes to recover his mind.

Wu Han smiled at Guan He and said to Chen Mu, "Arrange a place for us to stay. We'll have to wait and see."

"Yes, milord."

"..."

Inside Sword Sacrifice Pavilion, Nan Lee handed over the letter to Liu Yuan who was beside him. After Liu Yuan finished reading the letter, he raised his head and said: "Liu Ge doesn't agree with the alliance. It seems he still wants Canghai Sword Sect to stay out of this."

"Out of the picture? This cannot be tolerated by him. " With a wave of his hand, a light blue colored Zhen Qi shot out from his palm towards the vase at the corner of the corner of the wall. Looking at the vase that had been crushed into powder under Nan Lee's Zhen Qi, Nan Lee retracted his palm, "It seems like Zhao Xiu and Ye Feng's play still hasn't made him understand."

"What should we do next?" Liu Yuan asked.

Let Elder Hu Dong lead the Fourth Protector to support Ye Feng and Zhao Xiu. Since Liu Ge cannot be used by me, there is no need for Canghai to exist. Otherwise, it will become an obstacle for me in the future. Nan Lee sneered.

"Pavilion Master, when the various sects gather, are we going to be exposed?" Liu Yuan didn't understand why Pavilion Master Nan Lee chose this time to attack Liu Ge.

"I didn't say I would attack openly." Nan Lee clenched his fist, and laughed sinisterly: "Besides, gathering all the sects is the best opportunity for us to take action, we can let them understand our situation once, and it would be best if all the sects that are going to Canghai stay at the Liulan Mountain Mountain."

"I understand. I'll go arrange it now." Liu Yuan took his leave.
