Sword of Coming

The Holy Master leaned on the railing and looked into the distance, sighing softly.

What does it mean to be a hero? There are always a few things that no one in the world can do, but I can do them.

What does it mean to be a sage? There are always a few things that everyone in the world can do, but I cannot do.

Chen Ping'an said with shame: "I'm still far away."

Lu Yan smiled and said: "The Holy Master didn't tell you anything."

Chen Ping'an was not embarrassed anymore, "I won't delay the younger generation's longing for it."

Lu Yan wanted to have a drink with the literary sage whom he had heard of for a long time but only met once.

What kind of scholar can he teach Cui Chan, Zuo Zuo, Liu Shiliu, Qi Jingchun, and Chen Ping'an all at once?

It was rare for Qing Tong to see the young Yin Guan deflated and the corners of his mouth raised, but he quickly suppressed it. After all, he and Chen Ping'an were now half allies in the same boat.

Now, even if I really want to be a distinguished guest in Xiandu Mountain, there will be no problem.

Just like building a bookstore that engraves books, you can earn a fortune by spending less than two Grain Rain coins. This kind of thing is beyond your imagination.

However, Qing Tong is certain of one thing at this moment, this Chen Ping'an is not Zheng Juzhong.

Because just now Qingtong secretly asked the Holy Master from his heart.

The Holy Master's tone at that time was also quite helpless, "Friend Qingtong, your idea is very unreasonable. No matter how bold Zheng Juzhong is, no matter how novel Cui Zhang's idea is, a person who, whether it was intentional or unintentional, has not yet become one of the In the Fourteenth Realm, one is Haoran Xiuhu who deceives his master and destroys his ancestors, so the two of them would not make fun of the rules of the Confucian Temple and the cultural traditions."

Afterwards, the group took a short detour and walked outside a high-rise building named "Zhige Tower" by Qing Tong. Tens of thousands of weapons were stored inside, which can be found on mountains and mountains. Regardless of their rank, the quality and material are good. Bad, just look at Qing Tong's eyes.

The Holy Master still stood outside the door, looked around, and said to Chen Pingan: "By the way, Xiao Mo thought of a way to become a pure swordsman in the Fourteenth Realm. Unfortunately, someone had already taken the lead and was blocked by me. It’s almost like a long-distance question of swordsmanship.”

Chen Ping'an turned to look at Xiao Mo with a shy face.

Could it be that he and Daochang Sun thought they were going together?

Xiao Mo's eyes were sincere and he said: "When I stay by the young master's side, I like to imitate the young master and think about things, only to realize that I have wasted thousands of years."

If I had known the young master a hundred years earlier, I would probably have asked him about swordsmanship with Taoist Priest Sun of Xuandu Temple.

The Holy Master praised: "Xiao Mo is so majestic."

Xiao Mo shook his head and said: "Young Master Zhuyu is in front of me, Xiao Mo is too ashamed to deserve it."

Lu Yan couldn't help but laugh. It seemed that apart from Wen Sheng, Xiandu Mountain and Luo Po Mountain also needed to visit separately.

But as expected, the "self" at the moment should have visited both places.

It's just that Taoist Chunyang here has a certain lag in knowing "future events".

The Holy Master looked at the bright moon on the branches of the sycamore trees and said for no reason, "Missing you is like the crescent moon, which becomes full night after night."

It was originally a sentence on the Seal of the Hundred Sword Immortals. Later, it seemed that it was used by a female sword cultivator from the Great Wall of Sword Qi on the Wu Shi Pai, and was given to the young hermit official.

It is human nature for gentle ladies and gentlemen to be jealous, and vice versa.

Lu Yan stroked his beard and said with a smile: "That's a sentence from an immortal."

There are countless poems in the world, but the theory of the moon has long been overused, and it is difficult to have a fresh tone.

The Holy Master asked: "Which miscellaneous book did you copy this from?"

Chen Pingan shook his head and said: "It's not an excerpt, it's my own thought."

Lu Yan said with a smile: "It's a good thing, but studying is not as good as writing poems and lyrics. A bunch of strange and witty words are not as good as a warning. It should not be too fairy-like, not too charming and lingering, nor too heroic and generous. This kind of By the way, even if Pindao met Bai Ye, Su Zi, Liu Qi, and that Shandong veteran, he still made the same argument."

The Holy Master said: "It's not bad, his true temperament is the true nature of a man."

Because they were talking about studying, the Holy Master asked him something, "When you and your senior brother met again at the Great Wall of Sword Qi, did he teach him all his swordsmanship?"

"Senior Brother Zuo has always taught swordsmanship, but he is more interested in studying. It's about a half and half."

Chen Ping'an nodded and said with a helpless face: "Anyway, you are just... not satisfied with my sword training and study."

And it was definitely not something that Senior Brother Zuo did intentionally. He really didn't like him. If he hadn't gone to the Great Wall of Sword Qi, Senior Brother would probably still be annoyed by seeing him in the end.

Only when he arrived at Pei Qian and Cao Qinglang's side did Senior Brother Zuo have a smile.

The Holy Master nodded and said, "You and I have a good temper."

Let’s not talk about the embroidered tiger Cui Yi. How much better could Qi Jingchun be when she was young? As for Liu Shiliu, if he had a really good temper, would he have been able to provoke the Buddha to take action in his early years?

When Chen Pingan heard this comment, he felt it was hard to explain.

It was really hard to practice swordsmanship on the city wall back then.

Ning Yao would frown every time he saw his miserable appearance after leaving the city.

Although Senior Brother Zuo's speech would not be as straightforward as that of Senior Cui when he was learning boxing on the second floor of the Bamboo Tower.

But it has the same effect, it still touches the heart.

The Holy Master said: "You, my senior brother, are not a nerd who doesn't understand the ways of the world. He just said that he asked you to study the one hundred and seventy-three questions by the river. What was his intention back then? When you return to your hometown, you can meet that person." Old Master Shujianhu reunited in Fangbai Yujing, you should understand your good intentions, right?"

Chen Pingan nodded.

Although the lineage of the Literary Sage has withered away, the number of direct disciples of the old scholar, even if we include further disciples, is actually only a small number.

This is an extremely rare thing in many cultural traditions of the Confucian Temple.

In fact, the outside world is more horrified by the actions of the direct disciples of Wen Sheng, and has always ignored a certain "little thing", that is, the direct disciples of Wen Sheng all regard studying and cultivating one's body or mind as the first priority at all times. A first-rate event.

Let's just say that Zuo Zuo, the second disciple of Wen Sheng who turned to sword training in the middle, gradually became recognized as the swordsman with "the best swordsmanship in the world" as the number of questions he asked about swords increased.

There are many titles in the world, and it is often difficult to live up to the reputation, but as long as it involves sword cultivation, it is no joke.

So much so that when you went to sea to visit the immortals, you wanted to ask Pei Min about the swordsmanship. As one of the three masters of Haoran, Pei Min, as a well-deserved senior on the mountain, just because he touched the threshold of the fourteenth realm, he met Zou Zi again. As he got closer, he never wanted to get along with this "nerd" Zuo, and had to avoid his edge. Therefore, the word "swordsmanship" belongs to the outside world, and there is no need to argue with the outside world for a long time.

But at the Great Wall of Sword Qi, apart from teaching swordsmanship to this young junior fellow student, the bigger concern is to make Chen Ping'an, who is "miscellaneous but not refined, not doing his job properly," really work hard on his studies.

As for Chen Pingan himself, in fact, deep down in his heart, there is a lot of regret and loss about the sentence "Don't even think about making a statement" that was almost concluded by his senior brother Cui Cheng.

That's why we have such high hopes for our proud student Cao Qinglang. Whether Cao Qinglang can become the second best in the Dali Dynasty, both Mr. Chen Ping'an and Mr. Chen Ping's husband will be so sincerely happy.

Even with Pei Qian, the founding disciple, the first thing Chen Pingan did that year was to let her copy books.

There was no room for negotiation, and she was not required to be serious. She only had to write the text in a correct manner, and she was never stopped from complaining or complaining.

When will studying become less painful in the world?

Pei Qian even went to school in his hometown town.

So much so that Pei Qian, who was still a black girl, before becoming the later female grandmaster "Zheng Qian", was at Luolu Mountain and Qilong Lane. Before he could travel far, Pei Qian went to Nuanshu and Xiaomili. , a sentence that has been on my lips all day long, "Alas, now I am not only good at copying books, but also a serious scholar who has attended a private school. Alas, I have an extra status than my master for nothing, which is very sad. , when master comes home from now on, he will not give me a chestnut."

Every time Nuanshu would smile and say nothing, just nodding. The right guardian of Qilongxiang, who was waiting for Pei Qian to get out of class every day at the school gate, Xiao Mili was even more supportive, "That's awesome, I'm envious."

"Then do you want to go to school and study with me?"

"No, no, no. Guardian Zuo and I will just squat in front of the school and listen to you reading."

The Supreme Master smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Chunyang, when someone called me 'Lu Zu' a few times, I never thought of showing off my swordsmanship to convince this junior. You must know that this senior brother of this junior has very high swordsmanship." of."

Lu Yan said helplessly: "Someone didn't say he was dissatisfied."

If I had known earlier, I would not have told the Holy Master about the experience.

Xiao Mo immediately said: "My young master is sincere, and there is never a polite word from the seniors on the mountain. However, as a sword cultivator, Xiao Mo dare not say anything disapproving, and it is inevitable to be a little suspicious."

Chen Ping'an put his hands on his sleeves and looked at his nose and heart. To be honest, how could Chen Pingan not be curious about the Taoism and swordsmanship of this Chunyang Taoist?

I had only heard a few words from Cui Dongshan before, but for a senior who could make Cui Dongshan even praise him, and who was very skilled in Taoism, Tongxuan and Swordsmanship, there was no need to have any doubts.

Therefore, the only thing Chen Ping'an was curious about was how profound Lu Yan's Taoism was and how advanced his swordsmanship was.

Lu Yan smiled, put his fingers together, and unsheathed the long sword from his back, instantly flying to the center of the square outside the building.

The tip of the sword points to the sky, and the hilt touches the ground.

Qing Tong just stared blankly at the point pointed by the sword tip, but Chen Ping'an and Xiao Mo stared at the hilt of the sword against the ground almost at the same time.

This is a "world of difference" whether one is a swordsman or not.

In an instant, a long sword was unsheathed and motionless, but hundreds, thousands, and thousands of long swords began to appear.

Chen Pingan saw some clues. The long sword was less than 10,000, just one short. It was obvious that he deliberately took the word "nine" from Chunyang.

Xiaomo narrowed his eyes and said something silently in his mind. The four directions of heaven and earth are called Yu, and the past and present are called Universe.

It turned out that it was on the other side of the square. As if with the sword hilt as the center of the circle, a densely clustered long sword ball appeared.

But the mystery is not limited to the "current" number of long swords. That would be to underestimate the sword formation created by Lu Zu himself.

Because those long swords are overlapping, but they are not limited to overlapping. It seems that Lu Yan extracted and seconded the long river of time?

So there seem to be only nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine long swords, but they are actually "one" of nearly ten thousand sword arrays?

Therefore, the long swords are intertwined with each other, the light is distorted, and the postures of many long swords and sword lights are like dragons and snakes swimming around, not a straight line.

This is because in order to display his sword skills, Lu Yan deliberately removed the blinding method, so that Xiao Mo could see the clues at a glance. Otherwise, when they met on a narrow road, the sword master asked about the sword. Chunyang Taoist offered this sword. The sword flashed and the sword was instantly drawn. , even Xiao Mo, who is at the pinnacle of the Ascension Realm, thinks he will be caught off guard. I just don’t know how long Lu Yan’s swordsmanship can be sustained by his own aura of heaven and earth, and how many sword formations can he rebuild?

Xiao Mo reminded from the bottom of his heart: "Taoist Master Chunyang deliberately opened up the circulation route of the sword energy in the small world of the human body."

This is actually an extremely superior sword art.

If the posture of the long sword in the square is swordsmanship, then Lu Yan’s swordsmanship can be divided into two types. One is the way of Taoism, which is the manifestation of Lu Yan’s exquisite swordsmanship. It is the weather and the law. , and the other is the way of the road, which is the complicated routes that the sword energy is like walking in the small world of the human body. Generally speaking, this kind of "road" that looks like the pattern of the sword manual is the secret that is not taught. On the mountain, only Instructed orally.

Chen Pingan said: "I can only see seven or eight points clearly."

Xiao Mo said: "I will record it in the book for you later."

The Holy Master smiled and explained: "This sword technique involves both the 'yin and yang' of Taoism and the 'infinite' of Buddhism. Finally, it also arrests the water flow of the long river of time, so here I hand out the long sword. The sword of the past that comes from the lower reaches of the long river of time is also the sword of the future that comes from the upper reaches of the long river of time. As for how long this swordsmanship of fellow Taoist Chunyang can be sustained, I can't tell."

A sword is extended, and there is no way to avoid it.

Therefore, the person who is asked about the sword can only accept the sword.

Because there are unreasonable beings like sword cultivators in the world who can defeat all kinds of magic with one sword, so not only the qi practitioners of later generations, but also the Taoist priests of the world at that time came up with countermeasures thousands of years ago. After all, flow is a small way, and the real master is the formation. Even the sword cultivator himself has walked on this path neither too low nor too far. Things restrain each other, and the cycle repeats.

Lu Yan turned to look at Chen Ping'an.

Chen Pingan nodded lightly.

Lu Yan then sheathed his sword, smiled at Xiao Mo and said, "When it comes to the aura of heaven and earth, a poor Taoist would be inferior to me."

If it were left to the wild world and Xiao Mo heard such words, he wouldn't think much about it. Whether it was true or false would only be known after a fight.

But since it was in the vast world, Xiao Mo didn't need to ask for a sword, and he had a rough idea. Lu Yan was willing to move out the person he was most proud of in the world instead of others, which meant that the gap was not big.

"Is it just a twitching move?"

The Most Holy Master exclaimed, "Fellow Taoist Chunyang is a poor man, but he is not generous. If it is the former, it is easy to say, but if it is the latter, he is not a man enough. We Haoran have always said that good things come in pairs, Chun Since Fellow Daoist Yang is a Taoist priest, it would be better to combine the three talents of heaven, earth, man, and the two rites and four images..."

Lu Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "The poor in appearance hides the hidden incompetence."

The Holy Master laughed and said: "If you hide your secrets, you will hide your secrets. It is so beautifully said."

For ordinary swordsmanship, there are the sage master and a sword cultivator at the peak of Ascension Realm watching here. Lu Yan can't do it. Those who think they are good have a high threshold for learning swords, especially the method of golden elixir operation. Unless Lu Yan teaches Chen Pingan first, the latter can truly practice swordsmanship. Otherwise, Chen Pingan will just follow the gourd and draw the scoop, and the more he gets his shape, the further away he will be from his spirit.

The Most Holy Master spoke from the bottom of his heart: "Fellow Taoist Chunyang, with Chen Ping'an's character, I have learned the swordsmanship of the Chunyang lineage. When I meet your disciples in the future, I am still not allowed to pour out all my money to teach him and repay him with kindness?"

Lu Yan said helplessly: "The most holy master must have forgotten that Pindao has no disciples for the time being."

The Most Holy Master asked in confusion: "I have been traveling around the Qingming world for many years, and I have been to the White Jade Imperial City three times. What if there are no disciples of the Taoist Heart Transmission, and no registered disciples?"

Lu Yan shook his head and said, "No."

The Holy Master laughed angrily and said, "You're not looking for that Taoist companion. Why are you so picky?"

Lu Yan smiled and said: "You can't force yourself before the fate comes. When it comes to accepting disciples, I can learn more from literary sages."

Lu Yan suddenly said in his heart: "The Holy Master, wasn't he also a swordsman in his early years?"

The Holy Master sighed, "I can only talk about the level of swordsmanship. Over the past ten thousand years, the position has risen, which is extremely limited. However, the swordsmanship, swordsmanship, and sword moves have indeed become higher and higher over the past ten thousand years. It can be seen with the naked eye. , if I show off my swordsmanship, and get a "just like that" evaluation from Chen Ping'an, who is used to seeing the best swordsmanship in the world, and he seems to be about the same as his senior brother, then wouldn't I be a loser? In the future, Chen Pingan Ping An passes through various Confucian temples again, and every time he sees the portrait hanging in the middle, shouldn’t this kid laugh every time he looks at it?”

Lu Yan smiled and said, "Is this really true?"

The Holy Master laughed it off.

Then the Holy Master led a group of people to the tallest building and hung a plaque with the inscription "Demon Suppression Building" written by the Li Sheng himself.

This was also the only reason why Wen Hai Zhou came here and gave up occupying this place even though he could break the ban on the Demon Suppression Tower.

The Most Holy Master asked: "Chen Ping'an, if you were to replace Fei Ran, as the co-leader of the Wilderness, do you have a plan to severely damage the foundation of the sage's path to the greatest extent?"

Chen Pingan's face was dull.

What's the problem?

In Chen Ping'an's mind, Haoran Lisheng is an invincible existence.

Therefore, he never thought about this problem, because Chen Ping'an subconsciously felt that Li Sheng would definitely remain invincible, especially when the founders of the three religions left the Taoism and the Grand Master Bai Yujing had not yet integrated the cultural roots of the three religions and realized the Tao and the Tao. , Yu Dou’s Tao Lao Er is still a Tao Lao Er worthy of the name. If both parties leave their own world and choose to fight outside the world, Chen Pingan believes that Li Sheng has a greater chance of winning.

The Supreme Master clasped his hands behind his back, looked up at the plaque, and said slowly: "Think about it carefully, this is a big problem. As a direct disciple of the literary saint lineage, don't forget, your senior brother Mao Xiaodong , and is still the director of Liji Academy."

"Holy Master, do you have any tips?"

"Yes, I have already told you."

Chen Pingan thought for a moment and said softly: "Two ships collided."

Lu Yan nodded lightly.

Xiao Mo looked sideways at Qing Tong, luckily, this guy didn't understand either.

Chen Ping'an's face was solemn and he said solemnly: "If every city in the world is regarded as a ferry traveling far away in the void."

"Then once these two ferries collide, the two worlds of Haoran and Manhuang will no longer just be in chaos, but the geographical advantages of both sides will be intertwined."

The Wild World is not without damage. In fact, there will be great sequelae. It can only be said that once the two worlds are bordered, the situation on both sides is now reversed. The entire Haoran World is like a weapons shop that has begun to operate rapidly. Whether it is human, financial or material resources, or under the mountain The human heart and the Taoist heart on the mountain are all twisted into a rope, and the huge foundation of the world, day and night, seems to be transformed into two words, "war". For the Savage World, which is on the defensive, having that extra passage means losing a territory, which may be equivalent to the loss of a continent similar to Tongye Continent in the early years of Haoran World. Of course, it is adding insult to injury.

But for Wenhai Zhoumi, as long as he can suppress the rites and saints after the founder of the three religions broke away, Zhoumi has an extra chance of winning. Once he can completely refine the ruins of the ancient heaven in the future and do things for the world, he will receive Resistance will be reduced.

At the same time, because Bai Ze's method of combining the Tao is so unbelievable, if the two worlds are connected and the battle begins, it will only become more brutal. By then, Bai Ze's realm cultivation, especially his killing power, will be "forced" ” Then it improved.

He doesn't care about the living beings in the wild world. He is weak to Li Sheng and strong to Baize. Zhou Mi relies on this to delay time.

"If I were asked to choose the bow of the ship, or the spearhead directed at Haoran Tianxia and Lisheng, the first choice... would be the former Tuoyue Mountain."

No wonder Feiran would "empty out" Tuoyue Mountain early, leaving only the culprit, the founder disciple of Tuoyue Mountain's great ancestor, to guard the mountain alone.

"Secondly, there is Immortal Hairpin City."

It's no wonder that the "fake Taoist" Xianwei met him by chance in Dali Capital City. Although Xianhao City was beaten into two pieces by Chen Ping'an, could this be regarded as an accidental collision? , is it equivalent to indirectly protecting the ten thousand-year incense of the "Dao Hairpin lineage"?

"After that, there are the five mountains in the wild world, such as that green mountain."

The Holy Master nodded, "Then do you think Feiran can do it?"

Chen Pingan replied: "I may not want to do it, but I dare not not do it. I have to do it."

Fei Ran admires Haoran Lisheng very much. Just pursuing his own interests in his position, as the newest co-leader of the wilderness, Fei Ran has not been able to escape from Wen Hai Zhou's shadow for the time being.

Once the two ships collide, then this incident will be the beginning of the conspiracy against Li Sheng. This is just the beginning.

Just like Qing Ming Tianxia, ​​Yu Dou has long been resentful of Yu Dou's method of governing the world every time he sits in Bai Yujing for a hundred years.

So Haoran Tianxia may not really be convinced by some of the rules of the sage. It is just that no one of the ancestors of various schools of thought is allowed to enter the fourteenth realm. They must spend part of their Taoism outside the sky, even if it is to resist The gods outside the sky continue to attack and protect the vast world, but how can there be no resentment at all? Even if those old masters understand the difficulties and difficulties of the sage, what about the many qi practitioners from various schools of thought? Practicing one thing each, like a pure martial artist, seems to be a dead end, how can you be willing to do so?

"Isn't this an act of ritual for you to 'depose a hundred schools of thought and make one man achieve enlightenment'?"

The Holy Master said to himself: "I don't know how many people will have this idea."

Xiao Mo's face was gloomy, "You dare to think this. If I am a Confucian scholar in the Confucian Temple, and I find out, every one of them will be hacked to death."

The Holy Master laughed loudly, "So you sword cultivators are naturally suitable for the battlefield, but you are not suitable for managing people and affairs."

If the Confucian Temple is regarded as the head of a family with great power in the world, then the parents will be short-sighted, trivial, and have the palms of their hands, which will make things difficult for others.

Why did the "scholars" ten thousand years ago have so much arrogance? Why do the scholars ten thousand years later have more sour Confucianism and less refined Confucianism? Even the scholars who have read poetry and books seem to have a few less scholars. Part of heroism? There are many Taoist teachers and few sages.

Chen Pingan seemed to have a calm expression, but the Holy Master patted the young Yin Guan on the shoulder and said, "Our little master has long been accustomed to it. One day, if you can talk to him in private, you can learn from him When you hear a taunting remark, even if you are good at it, give it a try. You must give it a try. After all, I haven't heard a single word of complaint from him for ten thousand years."

Lu Yan asked with a smile on his face: "Chen Ping'an, you won't really trace that debt back to its source and put it on the Supreme Saint and the Lesser Saint, right?"

Chen Pingan said helplessly: "Of course not, I'm not mentally ill. I believe in Ya Sheng's original intention."

"The future is unknowable. Even the founders of the three religions do not dare to say what the future will be like. They can only try their best to push the world in a good general direction. This is one of them."

Lu Yan took off the gourd and gourd hanging from his waist, raised his head and took a sip of wine, "If we don't make a necessary end and cut, everything will be wrong in the world, as if there are no good people and no good things in the world. This is Second."

Lu Yan looked at Xiao Mo and Qing Tong and asked with a smile: "Is it true that there are many people who would be so arrogant and care about each other that they would really feel that the fault lies with the Supreme Master and the Lesser Saint, or should they be blamed anyway? "

Xiao Mo hesitated for a moment and said, "There will definitely be one."

Qingtong said: "A lot."

Lu Yan nodded and said, "The world is not that good."

Chen Pingan said: "The world is not that bad."

Lu Yan stroked his beard and smiled, "That's why I have to practice Taoism."

What Taoist Chunyang calls "cultivation" at this time does not just refer to the practice of Qi practitioners.

But it means something else, the world is formed by the gathering of people's hearts, and some people are willing to pave the way, build bridges, and repair the roads.

The Holy Master smiled and said: "Chen Ping'an, now that you realize it later, don't you need to ask me that question?"

As the executor or a key "chess piece", if Chen Ping'an gives up the choice of besieging and killing Lu Chen, then his senior brother Cui Chan, who is the planner, will be disappointed.

Chen Pingan nodded silently.

Although he already had the answer in his mind, since the Holy Master was by his side, he could verify what he was thinking in just one sentence.

According to the reminder of the sage master, Chen Ping'an, as the junior disciple, has already helped Li Sheng and the entire Haoran world eliminate some "natural disasters" invisibly.

Even if the two ships collide one day in the future, because there is no Tuoyue Mountain and Xianhan City, Dengtian Zhoumi will have to take a slight detour. A one or two step deviation from the route may save tens of millions of casualties for the vast world.

This makes Haoran Tianxia and Zhongtu Confucian Temple must accept this sentiment.

At the same time, Cui Chan seemed to be talking to Daozu.

Dao Ancestor, before you leave Taoism, don’t do anything unnecessary.

Do a good job in the affairs of the three of you in heaven. As for the affairs of the world behind you, just wait and see and watch from the sidelines.

Chen Pingan, a young swordsman in his forties, still has the courage to challenge Bai Yujing as a pure swordsman.

Let those juniors in your eyes, Dao Ancestor, go and take on the sword in an upright and fair manner. Both sides will rely on their own abilities and take responsibility for life and death.

Weakening Zhou Mi's possible future "world" move, more preserving the heritage of the Confucian Temple and sharing the pressure on the shoulders of the Lisheng, reminding Taozu not to protect Bai Yujing too much, let alone deliberately targeting the last hidden official of the Sword Qi Great Wall.

Kill three birds with one stone.

The Holy Master smiled and said: "Who is Cui Chan? He must have known what choice you would make. Although this move may not be in line with his knowledge of embroidering tigers."

"But you are not Cui Chan's student or disciple, but his junior brother."

"So, does this count as a joint effort between the first disciple of the Wen Sheng lineage and his junior brother... Wenjian?"

With Qi Jingchun, they teamed up to defeat Barbarian World and Wenhai Zhoumi, and then they started working with you, Chen Pingan, first plotting against Lu Chen, and then targeting Bai Yujing?

The Holy Master continued: "Don't forget, even if you leave aside the final result, let alone what will happen if Zheng Juzhong and Wu Shuangjiang attack together, once you sword cultivators choose to use your sword, what do you think about the siege at that time?" Does it matter whether the killing is successful or not? Even if the siege and killing of Lu Chen fails, it will still have a far-reaching impact, because the most important thing is that you sword cultivators from the Great Wall of Sword Qi will have particularly good memories once you make enemies with others."

Qi Tingji is a swordsman who carves words on the city wall, Ning Yao is the co-master of the colorful world, Lu Zhi is also promising, and Xingguan Haosu will never go to Qingming world.

For the Qingming world in the future, this will mean that in addition to internal worries, there will also be external troubles.

If after this fight, Lu Zhi, who has always had a bad impression of Haoran Tianxia, ​​will definitely choose to go to Feisheng City to refine the natal sword "Beidou" when the colorful world opens again in the future, and Xing Guan Hao Su would most likely choose to go with him. Since he had already avenged his great revenge after killing the Ascension Realm monk from Middle-earth, Hao Su, who felt quite guilty about his status as a "criminal officer", had always wanted to avenge and repay kindness. Furthermore, for a swordsman like Hao Su, asking the sword Bai Yujing itself is a big temptation.

The sword cultivator from Luzhou in Beiju once made a feat of traveling across continents to the Aizhou continent.

Then the sword cultivators in the colorful world can also do the same thing to cross the world and rush to the Qingming world.

Before that, what will happen to those white jade Taoist officials who have migrated to the colorful world?

And Bai Yujing's layout in the colorful world is almost one of Yu Dou's avenues.

This is not only Cui Zhang's plan for Qing Ming Tianxia, ​​but also the future trend of the colorful world has been conveniently included by Xiu Hu.

Therefore, it should have achieved four goals with one stone.

But since Chen Pingan chose to give up the siege and killing Lu Chen.

Just kill three birds with one stone?

not necessarily.

The Holy Master smiled and said: "Even if you don't follow the steps, at the same time, Cui Chan will make it even more difficult for Chen Ping'an in Ni Pingxiang to give up this choice. How can you dare to slack off before taking revenge in this life's practice? moment?"

Chen Pingan was in a trance, as if he had unlocked some restrictions and just remembered some past events.

We met again at the Great Wall of Sword Qi.

The young hidden official, who looked neither human nor ghost, lay on the ground, looking at the wind and snow in the night sky, and rarely complained.

After chatting, Chen Pingan only remembered that he had slashed the station with a narrow knife and stood up on his own. It turned out that was not the case. It was his senior brother who had tampered with his memory? Or could it be said that two long rivers of time separated and we saw two Cui Chan? In the end, the scene of one of the tributaries of the Long River of Time was sealed by the senior brother using some secret method?

Because what Chen Pingan remembered at this moment was that senior brother Cui Han looked calm on the top of the city. He bent down and stretched out a hand to pull himself up.

Finally, Cui Chan sat on the wall, clenched his fists, placed them gently on his knees, and stared into the distance.

Chen Ping'an sat aside and turned to look at that... white-haired old man in scholar's shirt.

"Just a reminder, don't look at me like that."

"Everything that I, Cui Chan, do that everyone in the world cannot understand is your business and has nothing to do with me."

"The reason why you are an exception, let me remind you, is because you are my disciple, so you must understand. Even if you don't understand today, you must pretend to understand."

Chen Ping'an said bitterly: "I thought I would say 'I need to understand in the future'."

Cui Han smiled and said: "In the future? What future? Ten thousand years, a thousand years, a hundred years, ten years? Or the day after tomorrow? Tomorrow?"

Chen Ping'an couldn't give an answer. He didn't guarantee what he couldn't do, but he would definitely do what he promised.

So Chen Pingan just explained: "I'm just curious, was Senior Brother Cui like Cui Dongshan when he was a boy?"

Cui Yi shook his head, smiled with squinted eyes, and said softly: "When I was a boy, it happened a long time ago. I thought less than him, and I was not as... naughty as him."

Chen Ping'an was silent for a long time and asked softly: "Aren't you going to see sir?"

Cui Chen clenched his hands and put his hands on his knees. He said nothing and had no answer.

It seems to be the answer.

The gentleman is at fault first, but the gentleman is still a gentleman. That's why Cui Chan called Chen Ping'an just now, "You are Mr.'s close disciple."

It seemed to answer another question from Chen Pingan at the same time.

But if the husband doesn’t come to see me, I won’t go to see the husband.

If the people in the world don't understand me, it has nothing to do with me, Cui Chan. But my husband doesn't understand me. My students have no complaints, but I have resentment in my heart.

At this moment, the old man in Confucian shirt seems to be the young man in the past, which is why he is angry with his husband.

Chen Ping'an could only remember so much.

There must have been some dialogue, but I can’t remember any of it.

"Is there anything in the world that can make people grit their teeth and move forward more than hatred and anger?"

The Holy Master pointed at the sky, "This is how we walked up step by step ten thousand years ago."

So Cui Chan, who was the first disciple of the former Literary Sage, wanted to make Chen Ping'an, who belongs to the Literary Sage lineage, not only stop at Bai Yujing, but also go on the road to heaven again.

New people follow old paths in order to weed out the old and bring forth the new.

I, Cui Chan, protect the road, so what if you know, don't stop me, or you will bear the consequences.

The Holy Master smiled and said: "Fellow Taoist Chunyang, are you willing to be protected like this?"

Lu Yan shook his head and said with a smile: "Don't worry, if I had fallen in love with such a senior brother when I was young, my heart would have been broken many times."

The Most Holy Master asked: "No matter what, Cui Chan didn't even discuss it with you. Is there any resentment in his heart?"

"Of course there will be. It's just that we were too hasty to meet and leave, so I seemed to have forgotten to mention it. But..."

Chen Pingan was stunned, paused for a moment, and said softly: "Always having others place their hopes will make you feel that you are not alone."
