Chapter 178.
Gu Xi Zhi was badly beaten.
Jiang Ran could hardly believe that it would be that Heavenly Dragon Excalibur.
His sword was broken and still held in his hand with a death grip.
There were multiple bloodstains on his limbs, and his tendons had been broken with a heavy hand.
Chest collapsed a, ribs broken several, palm force injuries and internal organs.
The whole person is now dying.
If it wasn’t for his deep internal strength, protecting his heart and veins, and hanging on to his breath, I’m afraid that he would have already died a long time ago.
“Teh motherfucker, I haven’t seen you for more than ten years, I didn’t think that seeing you again would be the last thing I would see.”
When Xuanyuan Yidao saw Gu Xi Zhi, his two eyes glared.
Another glance at Jingtan Jushi:
“You fought? After so many years, you finally got it?”
“……”
Jingtan Jushi didn’t bother with him and said to Jiang Ran:
“Although I’m not quite willing to admit it, this old thing’s martial arts skills are by no means below mine.
“Those who are able to injure him to such an extent would not be unusual characters.
“Although this old thing is a curmudgeon and scrupulously abides by dogma, …… in general it is also a good person, but I don’t know what kind of person will beat him like this.”
Jiang Ran nodded thoughtfully, knowing that Jingtan Jushi still meant to want to let himself be saved.
Although these two people had been fighting for their entire lives, their mouths were not going around anyone.
But in the end is a gentleman’s fight, not a villain with nothing to lose, now see Gu Xi Zhi this kind of appearance, Jing Tan Jushi is obviously also in the heart of intolerance.
He slightly pondered, hit the pocket took out a small bottle, poured out a pill stuffed into the mouth of Gu Xi Zhi:
“His injuries are not light, this elixir will first save his life.
“For the rest, wait until we reach the Evergreen Mansion.”
“Good.”
Jingtan Jushi clasped his fist at Jiang Ran:
“Many thanks, Young Scholar Jiang.”
“Words are too strong.”
Jiang Ran waved his hand and glanced at Xuan Yuan Yidao again.
The old man looked reckless, but was actually human, and immediately nodded his head:
“Men, carry this old thing away, take good care of it, but don’t die.”
Immediately, a disciple from the Blood Sword Hall came over and carefully took the person away.
“I told you he’s been following our asses all along, how come he didn’t show up when such a big thing happened at the stagecoach station.”
Tang Yuyi retracted her gaze towards Gu Xi Zhi and said to Jiang Ran:
“Jingtan Jushi is right, this is a good old man, who has never had any grudges against people.
“This time, I’m afraid it’s only with this thing behind you, it can’t be unconnected.”
Jiang Ran said thoughtfully:
“But if that’s really the case, why didn’t they strike at me directly?”
“Perhaps they ran into Senior Gu when they were planning to strike?”
Ruan Yuqing said from the side:
“Although Elder Gu has been picking on us, if he really finds out that someone is up to no good, he won’t let them go,” he said.
“In all likelihood, it will be a conflict over this.”
Jiang Ran nodded:
“Miss Ruan has a point.”
Tang Yuyi felt unconvinced after hearing this:
“What I said doesn’t make sense?”
Jiang Ran froze:
“Who said what you said didn’t make sense?”
“Then why don’t you say that Brother Li’s words are reasonable?”
Tang Wuyi was justified.
Jiang Ran thought for a moment and asked sincerely:
“Are you sick?”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Ruan Yuqing didn’t hold back and almost laughed out loud, but looking at ‘Li Tianxin’s’ luck at Jiang Ran’s back, wanting to pull out his sword, in the end, he didn’t have the heart to laugh out loud.
Picking up a Gu Xi Zhi on the way was a small interlude of sorts.
After that, the crowd officially arrived at the Evergreen Mansion.
Evergreen House more green mountains, at a glance, more layers of green.
Just this mountain is not big, often a towering peak, straight forest, pointing to the sky.
Of course, there are also lofty and towering as the three immortal mountains.
But some small peaks can even be seen within the Evergreen Province’s capital city.
There were even buildings on top of the peaks.
The top and bottom relied on a rope, and there were people climbing with their bare hands, which had obviously become a habit.
The scenery of this place was very different from Cangzhou Prefecture, and Jiang Ran felt that he had opened his eyes for a while.
After entering the city, the first person to separate from Jiang Ran and the others was Cheng Tianyang.
He clasped his hands and said to Jiang Ran:
“Young warrior Jiang, we still have things to do, so we’ll say goodbye to you all here,” he said.
“When we have finished our business, we will seek young warrior Jiang again to drink and rejoice.”
Cheng Tianyang had only met him by chance at the post station, and he had traveled with him all the way because he was on his way.
Now that people have arrived at the ground, naturally, they have to go to the settlement camp.
Jiang Ran immediately said with a smile:
“Good, Chief Bodyguard Cheng will go on his own. Let’s meet in the mountains and waters, we’ll meet again!”
“See you later!”
Cheng Tianyang cupped his fists and saluted, then greeted the people of the Tianyang Dart Bureau and rushed off in another direction.
Jiang Ran and the others saw them off for a ride, and it was only after they disappeared into the streets that Ning Jiu Kite stepped forward:
“Young warrior Jiang came to this Evergreen Mansion, do you have a place to go?”
“I intend to find an inn to stay for two days to prepare for the Three Immortals Mountain on the eighth day of October.”
Jiang Ran smiled, “Speaking of which, it’s the first time I’ve prepared for such matters. I still have to carefully study what I need to prepare at that time.”
Ning Jiu Kite nodded at his words:
“I see, young warrior Jiang, the previous Autumn Resignation Stage matter, thanks to the young warrior’s aid, only then was the golden needle in my senior brother’s brain removed.
“Evergreen Mansion is my Qifeng Mountain Manor’s territory, now that you’re here, if you’re allowed to stay in the inn, word will spread and I’m afraid that my fellow Jianghu practitioners will laugh at my Qifeng Mountain Manor for not having a way of treating guests.
“Jiu kite dare, please Jiang young warrior to my Qifeng mountain manor as a guest, do not know Jiang young warrior think how?”
As soon as these words came out, Tang Wuyi and Ruan Yuqing subconsciously glanced at each other.
Earlier, they had heard from Mr. Big that the Qifeng Mountain Manor was very interested in the burnt-tailed zither in Jiang Ran’s hands.
Now that they had arrived at the border of the Evergreen Province, Ning Jiu Kite had immediately invited them to be guests in the residence.
Whether there …… is any mystery here, it is hard to say.
Right at this moment, a burst of laughter rang out.
When Tang Yuyi and Ruan Yuqing heard this laughter, they immediately subconsciously slapped their heads.
How did they forget about him.
The crowd turned around, and they saw Xuanyuan Yidao walk in apart from the crowd:
“So you, this girl, are someone from Qifeng Mountain Manor, and you’re still saying that you’re Cuiyue Xuan Li Xiangzhu?”
Ning Jiu Kite froze and subconsciously took two steps back.
A dry laugh escaped:
“Senior Xuanyuan, senior ……”
“Shut up!”
Xuanyuan Yidao snorted coldly:
“You call me senior, but you call my benefactor just Young Warrior? What kind of reasoning is this?”
“This ……”
Ning Jiu Kite was able to be eloquent to Xuanyuan Yidao earlier, and that was because of the Thousand Bells and Ten Thousand Ren Formation, plus there was Jiang Randao Nameless and the others as backers.
Now that Xuan Yuan Yidao had become Jiang Ran’s disciple.
Behind oneself can rely on, only Qifeng Manor …… but this Qifeng Manor can not be on the list of the 13 gangs of the one and two will be five sword seven faction.
With this blood knife hall, simply can not be compared.
Today, even if the Qifeng Mountain Manor owner in person, see Xuanyuan a knife also have to be honestly executing junior salute, respectfully speak.
Their own generation face Xuanyuan a knife, in addition to listening to his lessons, there is really no other words can say.
Searching for a long time, can only give a bitter smile:
“The late generation had more offenses earlier, seniors despite punishing me is.”
“Hmph.”
Xuanyuan Yidao waved his hand:
“Too lazy to have a general understanding with your junior.
“This Qifeng Mountain Manor is also no big deal ……
“My blood knife hall power has not spread to this evergreen province only, otherwise, will you perch phoenix manor demolished to my benefactor to do a walking hall may not be impossible.
“Nowadays …… if you honestly invite my master to the door as a guest, do not make any moths, let your master teacher personally to invite, but also is not unable to go.
“But if you want to secretly harbor evil intentions, another mind, openly invite guests, but in fact, it is a greedy idea ……
“Then you can be careful to give you Qifeng Mountain Manor to invite disaster, and have to remember, the blood knife pointed out, there is no life!”
“Late generation dare not.”
Ning Jiu Kite hurriedly clasped his fists.
“If you don’t dare, good.”
Xuanyuan Yidao hummed, and licked his face to look at Jiang Ran again, grinning:
“En master can go wherever he wants to go.
“If this Qifeng Mountain Manor wants to go, naturally, you can go as you please, and my disciple will accompany you.
“If Qifeng Manor has the slightest disrespect for you, we will tear him down and build you a summer residence.”
“…… There is no such need.”
Jiang Ran cried and laughed, thinking for a moment and said:
“But I’ve long heard of the name of the Phoenix Ranking Branch of the Qifeng Mountain Villa, and now that I’ve arrived at this Evergreen Mansion, it would be inappropriate for me not to go and pay my respects,” he said.
“Miss Ning, you can lead the way, let’s go to the Qifeng Mountain Manor for a few days.”
“Good.”
Ning Jiu Kite immediately sighed in relief and turned around to lead the crowd forward.
The Evergreen Mansion was very large, the roads were wide, and because of the terrain, the architectural style was also extremely odd.
Jiang Ran walked all the way, only feeling that there was a scene at every step, and every step was strange.
Circling around, he walked for a small half day’s light before arriving at the top of a mountain.
“This small peak is called Mount Qifeng, and it is rumored that a phoenix flew past here in ancient times, and was attracted by the sacred wood on the mountain, and landed to rest.
“From this, the party got the name of Mount Qifeng.
“And the perched phoenix mountain manor is also used to establish …… division main family name phoenix, is also self-identified as that year that phoenix bloodline heir.
“Nowadays if you are able to go to the back of the mountain manor, you will still be able to see the divine wood that the phoenix was perched on back then.”
Ning Jiu Kite led the way while telling Jiang Ran as if he were a family member.
Jiang Ran sniffed indistinctly:
“So that’s how the Phoenix Mountain Manor came to be, in that case, the Phoenix family is considered to be ancient relics?”
“En master don’t listen to her blabbering.”
Xuanyuan Yidao said with a smile from the side:
“The Qifeng Mountain Manor has indeed been around for a long time, but to say that they are some kind of ancient relics, that’s too much for their face.
“They are just ordinary a jianghu family, borrow this Qifeng Mountain, set up a Qifeng Mountain Manor, shouting out the name of a good point just.
“Phoenix title branch and disciple three years ago had a side, disciple see him martial arts is good, but think also can not block my ten knife.”
“……”
Jiang Ran sighed, just a little bit of unimpressed space, it was overthrown by Xuanyuan’s knife.
What were the benefits of accepting a disciple who was older, had high martial arts skills, high status, and was also knowledgeable?
Jiang Ran silently glanced at Xuanyuan Yidao before letting out a long sigh.
Ning Jiu Kite dared to be angry at Xuanyuan Yidao’s words.
It could only honestly lead the people to the front of the Qifeng Mountain Manor.
There were disciples guarding in front of the door, and this journey up the mountain had also long since been discovered.
Without waiting for the disciple in front of the gate to speak, a group of people had rushed out from within the gate of the manor.
At the head of the group was a middle-aged man and woman.
Although they were not young, the man was still modest and elegant, and the woman was also charming.
It was conceivable that if one were to go back twenty years, what kind of golden couple would these two people be?
These two people saw Xuanyuan Yidao at a glance, and after glancing at each other, their faces changed slightly.
Following that, they clasped their hands and bowed as a salute:
“The Blood Dagger Hall Master has come to visit, Feng Shuanzhi has missed the welcome, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me, please forgive me.”
“So he’s Feng Shuangzhi.”
Tang Yuyi whispered in Jiang Ran’s ear:
“It looks like, indeed, it’s very similar to Feng Wu …… only, his father can be much more knowledgeable than him.”
Jiang Ran laughed dumbly:
“People have been in the jianghu for half a lifetime, naturally not Fengwu comparable.”
Thinking of Fengwu now this appearance, Jiang Ran also sighed, also do not know later these two families see their son, will be a what expression.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard Mrs. Feng at the side say:
“But I don’t know, our Qifeng Mountain Manor, where did we provoke the Blood Sword Hall?
“Surprisingly attracted Xuanyuan hall master, so laborious? Even …… not hesitate to take my disciple and son as a hostage.
“Such behavior, exactly what is intended?”
Xuanyuan Yidao froze, followed by a joy:
“I said why did you two run out, it turns out that you are worried that old man has taken a fancy to this mansion of yours.
“But your mansion is not bad, a little renovation, but can give my master to do a summer residence.”
“Enshu?”
Feng Huanzhi and his lady rivals glanced at each other.
They said, “How old is Xuanyuan Yidao, at this age, how did a master appear?
Isn’t this master of his that he is almost old beyond his years?
For a moment his eyes couldn’t help but look in the crowd, but after looking around, he didn’t see any master like Xuanyuan Yidao.
Feng Shuangzhi’s face suddenly sank:
“If Hall Master Xuanyuan wants to lay hands on my Qifeng Mountain Manor, just go ahead and do it.
“Why bother teasing like this?
“Under this sky, who else can be your master?”
“It’s true.”
Ning Jiu Kite felt that if she didn’t hurry out and say something, the Qifeng Mountain Manor was probably going to be exterminated.
“Really?”
Feng Shuangzhi saw that it was Ning Jiuji Kite and immediately nodded her head gently, followed by a sigh:
“Jiu Kite you came to my master’s side, tell me, but is this Xuan Yuan Yidao forcing you to talk like this?
“You though straight, I Qifeng Mountain Manor would rather die than submit!”
“This …… really isn’t.”
Ning Jiu Kite looked at Xuanyuan Yidao and the others, and then dropped her gaze to Jiang Ran’s body, reaching out and pointing:
“Look, this is Hall Master Xuanyuan’s benefactor.”
Feng Shuangzhi glanced at Jiang Ran and felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
How could this be Xuanyuan Yidao’s benefactor?
Just then, they heard Mrs. Feng laugh out loud:
“Jiu Kite, are you confused? You’re saying that he’s Hall Master Xuanyuan’s master? How do I look at it, he’s still a bit young even to be Hall Master Xuanyuan’s son, being a grandson is more like it.”
“How dare you!!!”
A furious shout rang out, and the crowd around them only felt the wind and thunder turn, and a fierce wind whistled away.
It was precisely Xuanyuan Yidao.
His figure pushed straight towards Lady Feng, waving a good-sized slap and raising his hand to strike.
How could Feng Huanzhi watch his wife being beaten up?
Immediately, his figure flashed, blocked in front of his own wife, two palms of luck sent.
A phoenix sound rang out from behind him.
The next moment, bang bang bang!
The two hands instantly clashed in one place, stirring up a thousand waves.
Taking the core of the clash as the point, it spread in a circle, and the sound of explosions was endless.
Just as Feng Shuangzhi stifled a grunt, his figure took a step back, and blood was already seeping out from the corner of his mouth:
“Nei Zi …… mouth out of shape, please don’t be offended by Hall Master Xuanyuan.”
“Good one mouth out of no shape.”
Xuanyuan Yidao coldly smiled, “If today she only said this seat, this seat would not be so concerned with a woman in general.
“But, in her words, she insulted the old man’s benefactor, today’s matter, I’m afraid it’s only difficult to solve.”
“Is this …… true?”
Feng Shuangzhi also couldn’t believe his ears.
The meaning in Xuanyuan Yidao’s words was clearly that Ning Jiu Kite was right, did he really worship this young man as his master?
Although I have long known that Xuanyuan Yidao this person with three not two, but also did not think that it is really so outrageous ah!
Immediately hastily said:
“We have absolutely no intention of insulting Hall Master Xuanyuan’s teacher, please forgive Hall Master Xuanyuan!”
Xuanyuan Yidao’s face turned blue, and with a cold snort, he wanted to say more.
Just then he heard Jiang Ran’s voice:
“Alright.”
Xuanyuan Yidao immediately swallowed back his unspoken words and turned back to look at Jiang Ran:
“Master.”
Seeing Xuanyuan Yidao respectfully saluting, Feng Huanzhi and his wife glanced at each other, still feeling incredulous.
This young man, is he really his master?
Could it be that he has the ability to stay young?
He looks young, but he is already a hundred years old?
Jiang Ran waved his hand:
“This place is after all the Qifeng Mountain Manor, collect your Blood Sword Hall Master’s might.
“We were invited by Miss Ning to be our guests here.
“If there’s some sort of misunderstanding, just explain it clearly, there’s no need to make such a big deal out of it.”
“Yes.”
Xuanyuan Yidao immediately and honestly agreed.
Turning back to look at Feng Shuanzhi again, Feng Shuanzhi was the one whose heart was tightened, and as a result, he saw Xuanyuan Yidao laugh out loud:
“En master has a word in advance, we come here as a guest, do not make a move.
“But I don’t know, Feng Zhuangzhuang master in the end welcome us or not?”
“Welcome!”
Although Feng Shuangzhi did not know why, but he nodded his head repeatedly, “Welcome to the extreme, you all are honored guests who are usually not invited.
“Come, come, honored guests, quickly inside please.”
Said hurriedly let the disciples behind him to make way for the path, leading the crowd inside.
Feng Shuangzhi’s wife, on the other hand, pulled Ning Jiuji Kite’s hand and inquired about the situation.
From time to time, her eyes landed on her son’s head, and she wondered in her heart, in the past, her son was the closest to her.
How today but as if not see the same ……
Just Xuanyuan a knife such a fatal star in front of her, she could not care about the inquiry for a moment.
Ning Jiu Kite knows that this is not the time to talk about Feng Wu.
She could only briefly explain the situation of Jiang Ran and Xuanyuan Yidao first.
When she heard the word ‘Jiang Ran’, Mrs. Feng realized why Ning Jiu Kite had invited Jiang Ran to be her guest.
Only when she looked at Xuanyuan Yidao again, she couldn’t help but be filled with bitterness.
Such a person is carrying a scorched tail, they …… wouldn’t dare to rob it even if they borrowed courage from the sky.
