The expression in Li Guangling's eyes froze, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said sarcastically, "Even at this time, you can't protect yourself, and you still haven't forgotten to protect your master loyally. I wonder how Dongfang would feel after hearing about it? "

His heart thumped rapidly, but he refused to answer because of his fear. After all, he was facing the head of the Five Tiger Generals of the Fortune Pavilion, the Sword of Mercy. The strongest and most terrifying peerless sword technique of the Fortune Pavilion. The sword left the scabbard and flew into the sky, changing into thousands of different forms. It was as if thousands of men and horses were walking on flat ground, and all the heroes were eclipsed. He could only hate himself for being born in the same era as him, so he could only look up to the bleak fate. However, he also felt a sense of relief, being able to see the divine sword soar through the sky with his own eyes.

Li Guangling saw that he still hadn't given up, and his heart was filled with mixed emotions and sentiments. He sighed, "Ten years ago, Dongfang and I fought side by side to protect Yangzhou, and at that time, we were on the verge of losing our souls. In the past, the famous army of over a hundred thousand people had surrounded Yangzhou so tightly that not even a drop of water could leak out. However, our Fortune Pavilion only had 50,000 veterans and handicapped veterans. At that time, no one believed that we could defend Yangzhou. Even I am ready to die in battle! However, we did not give up. We stubbornly resisted, and fought for an entire two months. Blood flowed like rivers, and countless people died in that battle. In the end, we survived, creating this unique miracle and protecting Yangzhou. Sometimes when I think about it, I wonder how I did it. If it had been the slightest deviation, if it had been a little later, I might have died that night. I presume that you have also been deeply impressed by the desperate situation that happened in this lonely city! "

Han Congan's eyes flashed with cold light, and his nose felt slightly sour. He pursed his lips and firmly said, "En — my two brothers both died in that great battle." How could I forget? "

Li Guangling slightly narrowed his eyes, while his cold face trembled. That battle still left a lingering fear in his heart. He was trapped in the middle of a chaotic army, struggling to survive without help. Even he felt powerless and terrified. Even though his martial arts skills were peerless in the current of steel, he would still die in the end. He let out a heavy sigh, and his thoughts raced as he said sorrowfully, "Did you know that Dongfang and I were guarding the East Gate that night? We were surrounded by Wu Ke's Huban army. We shall fight side by side and swear a vow, not to the same year and the same month and the same day, but to the same month and the same day and died. "If I die, I'll still be a brother in the next life …"

At this point, he stopped talking. He was speechless, and tears rolled down his cheeks. Yeah, we once said that life and death are together, and we'll still be brothers in the next life. Dong Fang, have you forgotten all this?

Jing Jingjing could not contain his excitement. He was shocked and also said with sympathy, "Sir —"

Li Guangling trembled when he heard it, and wiped the tears from his eyes with his hands, sighing to himself, "Time is changing, and so is the heart. Perhaps I was too obsessed, there was something in this world that would never change. Now you know that I care more about this than you do. He really has changed in the east. If not for his permission, it would be impossible for you to hide it for so long with your ability and authority. I just don't understand why you have to do this. But did the Fortune Pavilion really make you lose your confidence? "

Han Congan's eyes shone brightly as he gazed deeply at Li Guangling, his mood fluctuating. "Your excellency —"

Li Guangling lowered his eyes and lightly looked at the other side, and said without any interest, "Speak! I don't blame you! "

Han Juren sucked in a deep breath of air, suppressing his surging emotions. After thinking for a moment, he slowly said, "My lord, I once asked my lord Dongfang this question." Why do you have to do this? He told me that both the inside and the outside were in danger. If you don't use medicine when you are seriously ill, you might lose your focus in Yangzhou. Although it might harm the long-term interests of the Fortune Pavilion, it was able to solve the current critical situation. As long as he could delay the next two years, he would be able to resolve the crisis. The revival of the Fleming Pavilion was just around the corner. However, he knew that the Qi family would never agree to this plan. So he had no choice! "

Hearing that, Li Guangling became serious, and smiled bitterly to himself. He looked at the thick account book on the table, and said with emotion, "That's right! He knows that this would be detrimental to the long-term interests of the Formosan Pavilion. He knows that we cannot agree to this. He still chose to do this! Where did he put the pavilion master? There were tigers and wolves ahead of him, and dangers behind him. It was an internal and external threat, and the situation of the Flowing Wind Pavilion was in a precarious situation. But how can we be good at changing ideas? Do you not consider the consequences of doing so? "

Han Congan lowered his head and sunk into deep thought. The expression in his eyes constantly changed. His lips parted in hesitation as he said, "This subordinate does not know and is only following orders!"

"Foolish! Foolish! Drinking poison to stop thirst, deceiving yourself, making deals with our enemies in secret, what a pity, what a shame! " Li Guangling snapped when he heard this. The broad and tall figure swayed slightly under the light of the candle, like a dancing poplar in the wind.

In this lifetime, he had long since settled down in peace, taking the rise and fall of the Fortune Pavilion as his own responsibility. Each side would be prosperous, and each side would suffer losses. With the fall of a building, how could a person of my generation be afraid of evading his own responsibility and not sacrifice his life to turn the tide and share the honor and disgrace with others? Fortune Pavilion was his home and country, his life. Without the Qi family and Fortune Pavilion, he would not have the life sword Li Guangling now, and he would still be dead.

There were some things that had been deeply hidden in his heart and could not be expressed in words. He had to deal with the matter at hand. He glanced at Han Congan and deeply sighed, "I heard that you sold a lot of land a few years ago. Wang Tielian has several thousand acres of land under his name." Some of them were sold to the Shen family, I don't think I need to talk about the Yu family. I'm afraid in less than two years, even Yangzhou will change its surname to Hong! "

When Han Congan heard this, he panicked. "Your subordinate doesn't know. These matters were handled by Elder Chen Si Nian. I really didn't know, milord!"

Li Guangling slammed the table heavily, shaking Han Zunming until his body jumped. He almost didn't have the courage to do so. However, he still shouted in anger, "Still trying to quibble! What do you mean you don't know? Then how do you know Chen Sinian is selling the land! Since you know about this matter, why didn't you inform the Fortune Pavilion? Yet, you don't know how to say a single word? "

Your excellency, your subordinate deserves a thousand deaths! A thousand deaths!" Please spare my life!

Li Guangling was so angry that he pulled out the Life and Death Sword on the spot. He wished he could cut it into two, so that he could die a miserable death. Bastard, idiot, how could there be such a stupid person! If something were to happen, only then would you know to beg for forgiveness.

When Jing Jingyuan saw this, he knew that Li Guangling had his own killing intent, so he quickly hugged Li Guangling and stopped him. He kindly advised, "Master, don't be too agitated! There are still a lot of things that we haven't investigated clearly about. It would be too easy for us to kill him! If he dies, we really will have no other choice, and have to start from the beginning again! "

Li Guangling was so angry that he almost killed this Senior Disciple Han on the spot. After being dissuaded by Jing Jingyuan's words, he recovered and no longer wanted to cause any trouble. But in the end, he still warned the other party, "Han Confess, for the sake of you wasting so much precious time, I won't be able to sleep well even if I were to doze off every day! I wish I could cut you to death! You'd better wash your neck, and I'll come and chop you off one of these days when I'm in a good mood! "Bastard!"
