"Whoosh!" The sword was unsheathed an inch at a time, and a chilling air emanated from the half-hidden part of it. The sword reflected the unchanging expression on Jiang Xi's face.

No matter if it was the martial arts world or the temple, he was, after all, punished by His Majesty for conspiring against him. No one was willing to stir up the misfortune of the Son of Heaven.

If the Son of Heaven got angry, he would be dead millions of times, and his blood would be spilled. This was not just for show.

Regardless of whether Yang Qing was actually conspiring against them, just the fact that the Yang Family was annihilated was a clear proof of the problem. That is, the Son of Heaven did not want to raise this issue again, did not want to have any hidden dangers.

They were already used to it. They treated the name Yang Qing as a taboo and did not move or bring it up. Since this matter was not related to them, they just put it up high.

In fact, in Yang Muyun's own heart, this name had already become a taboo that no one else could touch.

However, while others were forbidden to kill, he was forbidden to guard.

Dragons had reverse scales, so they would be enraged if they were touched. In Yang Muyun's heart, his father would always be an indomitable hero. Even if he died, he wouldn't allow others to discuss and slander him.

Therefore, when Jiang Xi said the name Yang Qing, Yang Muyun was unable to control himself. If it wasn't for his rationality that stopped his next move, he would have already faced Jiang Xi's sabre and sword.

Yang Muyun also realized that he had lost his composure. Jiang Xi's words didn't have any malicious intent, so he retracted his sword and calmly sat back down.

"Little friend, your heart isn't at peace. It's going to be difficult to accomplish anything big like this." Jiang Xi looked at Yang Muyun as she calmed down and said, "From now on, you have to learn to control yourself. Otherwise, if the person in front of you was someone else, you would be in big trouble right now."

"Junior has learnt his lesson!" Yang Muyun respectfully said. He knew that Jiang Xi's words were indeed true, because back then, he was the only one who managed to escape. The entire Great Yu Dynasty was after him.

It was just that in these years, everything had been diluted. Those higher ups all thought that they had died in that great fire. Thus, the public notice of arrest and the wanted posters were long gone.

However, this didn't mean that no one remembered this, but there were still people secretly watching this matter. For example, the Black Armored Army led by Hong Lei, Yang Muyun guessed that their target might be that incident from back then.

Therefore, Yang Muyun needed to be even more careful. This made him believe in Jiang Xi even more, because he was the only one left in their family. If he extended the line, he wouldn't be able to catch any big fish.

Moreover, even after recognizing him for so long, he still hadn't done anything bad to him. This meant that Jiang Xi was still very trustworthy, at least she wasn't an enemy. Therefore, Yang Muyun was still very polite towards him.

"Yes." Jiang Xi nodded his head and continued, "Just now, little friend fought for those poor civilians and thought that all men were equal and that the things that martial practitioners do were good, is that right?"

"Yes, but this is better than those scholars." Yang Muyun retracted his thoughts, filled with righteous indignation.

"Then, my friend, do you know why those martial artists wanted to do this?" Jiang Xi asked.

Hearing Jiang Xi's question, he didn't know how to answer it for a moment. The question seemed simple, it was nothing more than the fact that the martial artists of the Jiang Hu were approachable and generous, but they were not like this.

People of the martial world would not do meaningless things for nothing. Those who acted like they had seen the world at first sight were, after all, few of them were brothers after the three bowls of wine.

Besides, martial practitioners of the martial world weren't rich to begin with, so it was impossible for them to be so generous in such a big restaurant. They didn't have the qualifications, so why did they do this?

"What does senior think?" Yang Muyun asked back, since he couldn't come up with a solution, he threw the ball back to Jiang Xi.

"I think?" Jiang Xi said, "My idea is very simple, because they are all people of the martial arts world."

"What is the martial arts world? "Where there are people is the martial arts world." Jiang Xi said, "Everyone is wandering in the martial arts world. The people they meet the most are the martial arts people, and the people they are closest to are also the martial arts people."

"And between the people of the martial world and the people of the martial world, there is such a feeling. To fight against each other at the ribs, to work recklessly, and even to die and disappear."

"Even if they didn't know each other before, even if they didn't know each other's names, even if they haven't remembered each other's appearances yet, as long as they are from the martial arts world, then they will be able to sacrifice themselves for each other, shed hot blood, use their mighty righteous energy to write these happy grudges, to write these legends of the martial arts world."

"As long as they are still people of the martial arts world, they are willing to be brothers. "They are willing to give up everything for a bowl of murky wine. This is because their hearts follow the principles of the martial arts world, see the scenery of the martial arts world, and experience the love of the martial arts world."

"This is the people of the martial world. This is the reason!"

Jiang Xi spoke word by word, his voice rising and falling, becoming more and more agitated as he spoke. By the time he finished, he had already stood up and was facing the window, showing the martial arts world he was in.

When Yang Muyun heard these words, he also felt a burst of excitement. The young man didn't want the Jianghu, while Erlang Qi didn't want hot blood. Perhaps those retards were crazy, but who would dare to say that they were wrong? No one!

"Then... Do those scholars not belong to this martial arts world? " Yang Muyun still grasped the crux of the problem as he pondered.

"Little friend, do you know?" River Xi stood by the window, the wind blowing his hair.

"Naturally." Yang Muyun replied.

"Taibai is a huge event that happens once every three years for us martial artists in the martial arts world. Then, little friend, think about it, what is this great event in the literary world?" Jiang Xi asked again.

Yang Muyun thought for a moment, then blurted out, "The Imperial examinations!"

"That's right." Jiang Xi turned around and looked at Yang Muyun, "Little friend, take a closer look at these scholars, do you have anything in common?"

In the lobby of the first floor, Yang Muyun's eyes were focused on the group of literary people. Within a few breaths, Yang Muyun was able to see that something was wrong.

These scholars all had a wooden identity token pinned to their waists!

Yang Muyun knocked his head, "How could I forget that the country exam is about to be held? So these scholars are all examinees of the country exam?"

"That's right, Shattered Leaf City's once every three years homecoming competition is about to begin." Jiang Xi explained, "Yangzhou is rich and vast, with a large population. Therefore, this examination hall is designed to give rise to the wind and shattered leaves, and these are all exam candidates."

"Since it's an examinee, I, Senior Yu, can be accepted into the Imperial Examinations regardless of our sect's rank." Since it's an examinee, I, Senior Yu, can be accepted into the Imperial Examinations regardless of our family's rank. Yang Muyun looked at the first floor and was lost in thought.
