C238 The Xiao Father and Son

Yang Yunjing looked at the wound on his chest. It wasn't deep, and there wasn't much blood flowing out. He then looked at Xiao Chen, who had been stabbed six times in a row. He stood still on the spot, using the sword in his hand to support himself. Cold sweat trickled down his face, but he didn't make a sound.

Xiao Chen breathed heavily. He couldn't hold on any longer. He knelt on one knee. Yang Yunjing looked at him with an indescribable expression. It was hard to tell whether he was sad or happy. He asked with a cold smile, "You don't seem to be able to move anymore?"

Xiao Chen did not answer. He stood up again. However, he couldn't use his sword anymore. His body was shaking so much that he could barely stop himself from falling down.

Yang Yunjing looked at the weapon in his hand and sneered. "Tsk, tsk, tsk. It seems like it's time to kill you. You are indeed a troublesome person. " After saying that, he thrust his sword forward.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was ready to die. Just as Duan Tianya was about to jump down from the tall tree, he saw a man in black flashing past, followed by a sword. His attack was so fast that Yang Yunjing was caught off guard.

The man in black carried Xiao Chen, crossed the high wall, and disappeared into the night sky. Everything happened so suddenly that it made people feel as if they had just woken up from a dream.

Yang Yunjing stared in the direction where the man in black had fled and could not help but smile bitterly. He looked at Lin Zhuo again. Lin Zhuo was the same as him, but there was no surprise on his face.

Duan Tianya saw that Xiao Chen had been rescued, so he followed the man in black's direction and chased after him.

The sky was slightly bright. Half of the sky in the east had turned white. A few clouds were floating where the sun was rising. There was no wind, so it was very quiet.

A trace of coldness hit him. He felt that the surroundings were so empty. Duan Tianya looked at the lights that had not been extinguished in the distance and a smile appeared on his face.

He did not get lost, and he knew where he was.

In the inn, the shopkeeper stood in front of the counter. He did not do anything. The business here seemed to be very poor, and even the fire used to drive away the chill in the morning had been extinguished.

Duan Tianya walked to the shopkeeper and said, "I trust you have been well since we last met!"

The shopkeeper raised his head and looked at him. He replied, "Why are you here?" Although his expression looked very nervous, anyone with discerning eyes could tell that he was pretending.

Duan Tianya smiled and said, "Why can't I come?"

The shopkeeper said thoughtfully, "Since the Alliance Master's Meeting in Half-moon Manor, there have been very few people visiting this place. "

Duan Tianya said, "But it still opens its door to do business. "

The shopkeeper walked out of the counter and asked, "What do you need?"

Duan Tianya said, "I need to find a friend of mine. "

The shopkeeper was puzzled and asked, "A friend?" Then he said, "You are looking for your friend. You should not have come to my place. "

Duan Tianya smiled and said, Yes. " He was rescued by a person. I have to come here to find him. "

The shopkeeper remained silent, but he seemed to be in a dilemma. Duan Tianya had seen all of this, so he continued to ask. "An old man whose name has shaken the world will become restless in front of his family. Don't you think so?"

At this moment, the shopkeeper laughed loudly. He was not afraid that anyone would hear his laughter. Because, besides Duan Tianya, there was no one else here.

After laughing, Duan Tianya said to him, "It seems like I have underestimated you, young man. "

Duan Tianya found a chair and sat down. Seeing that the water in the teapot was cold, he joked, "Young people also want to drink hot water at this time. "

As soon as he said that, The shopkeeper didn't know when the sword had appeared in the shopkeeper's hand. A cold light flashed. Duan Tianya turned around and jumped out of the room. At this time, the shopkeeper also broke out of the window.

Duan Tianya looked at the sword in his hand and said with a smile. "It seems like the famous sword of Xiao Qianshan is going to take Xiao Qianshan's life. I'm going to kill him this time. "

The shopkeeper threw his head back and laughed. "I, Xiao Qianshan, have been hiding here for dozens of years, but no one has ever heard of me. I never thought that I would be recognized by a stupid kid like you today. "

Duan Tianya said, "But it seems like recognizing you won't do me any good. "

Xiao Qianshan said angrily, "But not only do you recognize me, you also know the relationship between me and the person you are looking for. If I kill you, everything will sink into the ocean. "

Duan Tianya smiled bitterly and said, "But Yang Yunjing will not let Xiao Chen go. "

Xiao Qianshan said, "If I kill you, I might as well kill him as well. "

Duan Tianya listened with great interest and then said, "I'm afraid you can't even kill me. "

Before he finished his words, the sword had already arrived in front of him. Duan Tianya drew out his long sword and unleashed dozens of attacks in an instant. As the name suggested, the sword technique was fast, accurate, and ruthless. It was said that many people had been killed by Xiao Qianshan's sword in the past, which was why it had a good reputation.

It could be seen that Xiao Chen's sword technique had also been inherited from him.

Xiao Qianshan knew that this young man in front of him must have good martial arts skills, but he didn't expect his sword technique to be so powerful. In the hundreds of attacks, not only did he not gain any advantage, but he even had a few moves that he had to struggle to parry.

Xiao Qianshan wanted to fight a few more moves, but he was startled by the noise in the distance. Looking from afar, dozens of people were walking towards him with torches in their hands. Duan Tianya also took a closer look and said with a smile, "It seems that they are here to find Xiao Chen. "

Xiao Qianshan thought for a moment and scolded, "It seems like Half-moon Manor does not want to let this matter rest. "

Duan Tianya put the sword back into the sheath and said, "If it were me, I would not let this matter rest!"

The sky was bright and the sky was dyed in blue. The rising sun had already climbed to the top of the mountain. Looking from afar, it looked like an old man carrying a bamboo hat.

A group of people crowded into the inn. When they saw that only Duan Tianya and Xiao Qianshan were drinking, they didn't pay much attention to them. Instead, they looked around and saw that there was no one else. The leader of the group looked at the few jars of good wine on the counter.

He put the sword on his waist and went straight to the counter. He grabbed the jar of wine and threw it to the back of his head. The person behind him caught the jar of wine.

After throwing seven jars of good wine, the leader turned around with satisfaction. He took out a few pieces of silver from his waist and threw it to Xiao Qianshan, who was dressed like the manager, then swaggered out.

Duan Tianya looked at the group of people who had walked far away and said with a smile, "What a pity for those seven jars of good wine. "

Xiao Qianshan looked at him and said, "You don't drink, so there's no need to feel sorry for good wine. "

While they were talking, they heard someone push the secret room at the counter. A person staggered out from inside. Duan Tianya looked at this person and joked, "One sword to bleed Xiao Chen. He actually has nine lives. "

Xiao Chen leaned to the side and panted heavily. "You are talking about the Nine-Life Cat. It has nothing to do with me. "

It was almost dusk. The entire Three Paths Ridge was always silent. Very few customers came here, but there would always be a few people who liked peace and quiet coming here to sleep.
