Chapter 7

It seems that the meeting is inappropriate, and Qi Xiaotian and I passed by each other in Qinlou

The ones who went to Longtan Town with me were Xiao Xiao, Linglong and Wu Wu, and Wu Xia stayed in Zhuyuan. Jie Yu was unwilling to meet his father on such occasions, so he took the initiative to stay and take care of Wu Xia.

Look, he is the demon king of the demon sect

Ah? No, it’s him! He’s here too. Is the Demon Sect going to compete for the top ten? But the sister around him is really... so beautiful!

When the fearful eyes of my eyes fell on the four girls, they turned into a pig in a blink of an eye: Alas, why did even the Demon Sect become corrupt and degenerate? It turns out that the Demon Sect hates thieves the most!

As we walked along the way, we always encountered such a situation, but we just pointed at it. We did not immediately draw our swords at the Demon Sect. Although it is notorious, after all, we have not been in the martial arts world for fifty years. Most people in the martial arts world have only heard their elders mention it. More people can not even explain how the Demon Sect is doing evil. Without personal feelings, how much hostility and hatred can be condensed by legends?

Sitting in Liu Lingzui's familiar private room, opposite the Xinxin Inn, the main venue of this Wulin Tea Party. Although it has been decorated, the battle two months ago still left some traces, which is inspiring to reverie

Fu Laike, the boss of Baojia and Liu Lingzui in Longtan Town, looks both excited and anxious. Every person who comes to Liu Lingzui spends money like flowing water. If everything goes well, he can earn a lot of money for the New Year; but if the fight starts again, it will hurt just by thinking about the money that clears the government office.

There were 254 people staying in Fugui Inn in Zhendong, all of them came from Jiangbei, and all of them were paid by a man named Murong Zhongda; while there were 233 people staying in Ruyi Inn in Zhenxi, all of them were paid by a man named Gongsun Qi. Although there were few people from the southwest and northwest, only 87 people were staying in the north and south inn near Xinxin Inn in the center of the town, their expenses were paid by a man named Tang Tianxing. Several other people moved into Xinxin, but there were already protected by the men of Shenji Camp. Idle people were not allowed to approach Lord Banbu Wang at all. What else do you want to know?

Fu Laike was indeed a smart person. He quickly figured out the situation in the town for me. Tongmenghui and the sects controlled by the Murong family were clearly distinguished. Sects like Shaolin and Wudang, which remained neutral in name at least, lived in Xinxin. However, no one of the leaders of the ten sects except me appeared in Longtan Town.

I really guessed. Seeing that Fu Lai Ke had already withdrawn from the room, I sighed and said: Speaking of which, I can only blame Bai Xiaosheng, the top ten ranking method, for being too protective of the strong.

If Bai Xiaosheng had not made any active adjustments, if a sect wants to enter the tenth hall, it must first challenge the tenth place. After the challenge is successful, every time one advances, it will face new challenges. However, the challenge method is just a simple challenge method such as five games and three wins, which makes the Cao Gang a gang with many people but lacks masters in charge.

The Eagle Claw Gate, which was ranked tenth in the past, endured almost all the challenges. Of course, it has Kuang Tian, ​​and Sima Changkong's two who's who record masters are enough to cope with these challenges.

Out of gentlemanly demeanor, their strength is indeed not good. They did not want to seek the ninth position of Chunshui Sword Sect because they were tired of this challenge. Because of Bai Xiaosheng's unique vision, the top ten he arranged almost completely reflects the strength of each sect, and the ranking battle between the top ten sects seemed to have changed. We are not fighting for a higher rank, but rather to compete for martial arts.

Just as Qi Fang said, if it were on weekdays, how could he have the opportunity to compete with Qingfeng Real Person? This kind of competition at the same level is really of great benefit to the advancement of martial arts.

But in this way, important figures are often absent from the top ten sects. Anyway, everyone is very gentlemanly. There has been no robbery in the past ten years. It is just that this year when everyone is absent from the same place.

In fact, there are many small words about this challenge that has almost become a lifelong one. But it is said that Bai Xiaosheng has his own reasons. If a sect cannot cultivate masters of its own sect and cannot attract masters from other sects to join, then what qualifications does it have to advance to the top ten? Perhaps even the value of existence is lacking!

But this year is really different from the past! I sighed: If we withdraw from the top ten, then Bai Xiaosheng should be troubled by allocating the remaining three seats to whom. Hengshan and Cao Gang may be able to get two of them, but the remaining one is the Baihua Gang in Jiangnan, the Seven Star Gate, the Tan family in Jiangbei, and the Yan family are all in the same strength. It is hard to predict who wins and loses.

Husband, are we really not participating in the top ten rankings? Yuling said carefully, and Yulong's eyes were a little more hopeful than before

Linglong is still a child after all. Although the world has brought them too much trauma, she saw so many young men in the world who are ready to go along the way. The competitive young character in her heart made them eager to try it out. After all, even her mother, who has always been strict, said that her martial arts have made great progress. If only those close to her can appreciate the result of this hard practice, wouldn’t it be a pity?

Is there anything absolutely in this world? I smiled slightly: If you participate or not, of course it depends on the development of the situation. The most important thing is that someone must pay the price!

Not to participate. Although the Chunshui Sword Sect still exists in name, I think my generation should end. There is no need to bear this false name anymore. I am to Han Won Jidao

Han Won-je's visit was not beyond my expectations, but he was concerned about the Chunshui Sword Sect, which surprised me a little.

Without the eldest young master, the world will be even more lonely. Han Yuanji's horse face showed a vivid expression, as if he was regretful for me: Thinking of being called the top ten with a sect like the Cao Gang, it made my village feel blank. If even the Baihua Gang or the Tan family also advanced to the top ten, my village really doesn't know what to say

Haha, Brother Han seems to care about the purity of the top ten bloodlines! I couldn't help but laugh: However, if you evaluate your allies like this, Li Zhan and Li Gangmaster Li may not be very happy!

Young Master, the alliance that is combined because of interests will only collapse when interests conflict. How could it cause a big fight because of one or two unpleasant words? Besides, my village has never realized that the Cao Gang is a friend, so there is no need to be so cautious in his words!

Han Won Ji said seriously, looking at me with bright eyes: Young Master, don’t look at the difference between allies and friends, but the meaning is far different!

Han Won-ji's words revealed the old foundation of the Jiangbei Alliance, but he was so frank about me, it must be meaningful. Thinking of the special attention of Libido Villa to me and the complex relationship with Libido Villa, the concept of allies and friends he proposed at this moment is even more meaningful.

I heard that my master had a fight with Master Xiao... I suddenly changed the topic

The eldest young man is getting richer, so it is not surprising that he knows this. That time, he won the victory of Master Ren Gong.

The master rarely engages with others in his life. It is because his master sneaks into the Sutra Pavilion, while Xia Zong and Yin Guan are angry with the master, and Xia Zong are even more destroyed because of this. But I really don’t understand why the battle with Master Xiao is the one who really fights.

The eldest young master now doesn't know the truth. It doesn't matter. Mr. Ren deliberately concealed so many things because he was unwilling to let his thoughts influence the eldest young master! But the eldest young master should know that since that competition, there has been a special relationship between Mr. Ren and the owner of the Xiaozhuang, and the most direct result of this relationship is that my lady has become the eldest young master's concubine.

This is the bet that I am grateful for for the rest of my life! However, Han Won Ji is still unwilling to explain the cause of the competition. I think Libye Villa thinks that the time is not yet ripe.

Will it be the competition for the Sect Master within the Demon Sect? This seems to explain most of the mystery. The Sect regards strength as the most respect. When Xiao Bieli finds that he has few rivals in the world, he is likely to be dissatisfied with the Master who holds the turtle's policy of raising his head. The Master's Sect Master's position as the master is also likely to be given privately by the Master. No one in the Demon Sect seems to know the true strength of the Master, so Xiao Bieli began to challenge the Master's position as the Sect Master of the Ri Sect, and ended up losing a lot and having to pay his daughter, which suppressed his ambition to compete for the world for more than ten years.

When he found out from various channels that my strength is not much weaker than my master, he might have put his expectations of fighting for the world of power on me. After all, I am still his son-in-law!

But in this way, he should remain calm and observe the changes in the situation in the world. How could he be involved in the front line of fighting for hegemony in the world? Could it be that the Murong family with a long history is also related to the Demon Sect?

It’s really said that Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived, and Murong Zhongda also came to join in the fun, but he was very straightforward: I thought that Dong Shao said he wanted to attend the Wulin Tea Party to revive the might of the Chunshui Sword School, but I heard that Dong Shao had decided not to participate in the top ten rankings, which made this tea party suddenly turbulent!

Oh? I narrowed my eyes and remembered the surprise when I told Mr. Lu Mei to tell me about this decision. It seemed that the stagnant water in the Wulin Tea Party was really disturbed by me. But Murong Zhongda came to the door so quickly. Isn’t he too impatient?

I'm going to tell you, if the Chunshui Sword Sect participates in the top ten rankings, there is no need for Baixiaosheng. Even I can make the whole world unable to find any problems. Yinhu, Shaolin, and Wudang, let's not move the three Bodhisattvas of Yinhu, Shaolin, and Wudang. After his grandmother's Dajiang League and Pai Gang merged, their strength is still above Wudang. Although Qi Fang's old man is as thick as a city wall, he is embarrassed to steal the position of his in-laws! And my Murong family has never taken these false names seriously. What's wrong with ranking behind the Tang Sect? The Chunshui Sword Sect is strong, so let the Leave the Eighth Villa rank in the eighth, plus Hengshan and Cao Gang, who can say a word that can move the few, you can get a seat. Many people are jealous of the top ten names, and they are eager to try it. This is a mess.

It is not that the Jiangbei Alliance is a bit unstable! I said, "It's not easy to resist this temptation, but once the inner demons cannot be stopped, the battle between the positions of the top ten sects will suddenly become fierce, and the struggle between the various sects within the alliance will inevitably be inevitable."

Not to be hiding, the news has not spread yet, but the major sects in Jiangbei are already a little restless, but his Dajiang Tongmenghui is not much better than my Murong family.

Murong Zhongda admitted the current dilemma: For the sake of knowing each other for many years, you can take back your life and participate in the top ten rankings!

Murong, you should know me, I don’t have much interest in the world... I started to throw out bait. Of course, I didn’t expect Murong Zhongda to promise me anything, but he should have heard that my tone was not without room for maneuver. The rest should be decided by Murong Qianqiu!

After Murong Zhongda and Han Wonji left, I welcomed Liu Yuanli from the Dajiang League again. I still remember the rudeness he had last time to Jiangyuan. Although I can't teach him a lesson, I also made the official voice full of it, which made him, who had always been smart, and he couldn't figure out my true intentions, so I had to leave embarrassedly.

Many unknown stories must have happened this night. When I went to Xinxin Inn the next day, I saw many people's eyes turned a little black, as if they hadn't slept all night.

There are people sitting in the living room of Xinxin's most luxurious villa. Looking around, most of them are acquaintances, Wei Rou of Yinhu, Wudang Palace, Qi Xiaotian of Dajiang League, Tang Sanzang of Tang, Murong Family Murong Zhongda and Han Yuanji of Liege Villa, only one fat old man is a raw face, but none of the leaders of a sect like Lu Lingxi, Kongwen, and Qingfeng Zhenren attended. It looks like a second-generation disciple who took over the full succession and took charge of the Wulin Tea Party.

Even the preparatory meetings of the top ten sects should not be so ignored!

According to the process Wuxia told me, today's meeting was a preparatory meeting for the original ten sects to discuss the new ten that Bai Xiaosheng will be announced. Perhaps it was a bargaining meeting. All the challenges and personnel arrangements between the ten will be decided at this meeting.

Since the top ten changes have not been intense in the past twelve years, most of the participants in this conference are number two in various sects, and most of the recent disciples attend the conference as assistants to increase their knowledge

Of course, if the head of the sect is in a good mood or takes some big moves, it is likely that he will attend in person. Therefore, three or four sect leaders will attend each preparatory meeting. This is the first time that only one of the heads of me appears at the preparatory meeting.

While greeting Qi Xiaotian and Wei Rou and others, I felt secretly moved that in the cultivation of the new generation, the Baidao Wulin, which has the Shaolin Wudang Dajiang League as the backbone, has left the underworld far behind. When the names of Wei Rou and Qi Xiaotian and others are already at their peak, the Murong family and Liege Villa are still those old people who are conquering the world.

It's really the younger generation pushing the older generation, and the new generation replaces the old one. Oh, my thoughts are turning, my eyes have already fallen on the gentle middle-aged literati standing in the center of the hall. He should be Bai Xiaosheng

Bai Xiaosheng is a typical example of the southerner and northern face. His tall figure has a face as weak as a daughter. Although his appearance is not as clear and beautiful as Yang Shen, every line on his face seems to be full of elegant words, which makes people feel very intimate and easily forget his official status. And his every move is even more beautiful. Even a simple fan swing, asking him to do it, seems to be in line with the rhythm. Among these warriors, he stands out more and more.

A thought suddenly arose in my mind: Only such a person can avoid the graceful and elegant demeanor of the court when dealing with the world!

Seeing me coming in, Bai Xiaosheng's eyes lit up and said with a smile: Just wait for you, Master Wang.

Although the title of Chief Wang sounds awkward, it has a unique flavor from his mouth that surprised me even more. His smile seemed to move the entire corner of his eyes and eyebrows. The arcs pulled out of the corners of his mouth were combined, which made him look quite weird, revealing his other face. Perhaps this is one of the reasons why Wuxia said he was interesting!

After accusing him of the crime, he exchanged greetings, and saw that there was a vacant seat beside Tang Sanzang, so he sat beside him.

This Wulin Tea Party is the last one. The stars are changing, and I counted on my fingers. The Wulin Tea Party has been twelve, and it happened to be done in one day, so it is considered that the merits have been fulfilled.

Seeing that everyone was already together, Bai Xiaosheng signaled everyone to be quiet, but although he smiled and said the opening remarks, the content made everyone stunned.

Bai Xiaosheng's official identity has put the names of the top ten sects with a layer of official color. Perhaps only a few sects such as Yinhu Shaolin Wudang do not need the top ten to add icing on the cake. The rest are rich families like the Tang Sect, Dajiang League, and Murong Family who care about the top ten are very concerned about the top ten names. After all, for those who are ignorant and vain, the top ten is the supreme glory; being able to become disciples of the top ten sects is even more dreamy.

Once this attractive halo is missing, the attraction of these sects will decline by a certain amount. No wonder everyone cannot accept Bai Xiaosheng's courage to retreat. Even I can't figure out his true intentions for a while.

Looking at Wei Rou, her expression was as normal, but her slightly frown eyebrows made me know that she was obviously not prepared in advance.

Wherever this is! My old Song is fifty-one this year, and he doesn't want to get rid of his armor and return to the field. The gentleman is so young that he suddenly resigns!? This martial arts tea talk will say that you have to make up a jiazi to be perfect! After a moment of silence as if you were dead, the fat old man shouted.

Qi Xiaotian, Murong Zhongda and others also spoke out to keep him, and even I was moved by the earnest words.

He is Song Weichang, the butler of the Eagle Claw Gate. Tang Sanzang saw the confusion in my eyes and whispered in my ear: It turned out to be a well-known bodyguard on Jiangnan Road. Recently, he was caught by the Eagle Claw Gate.

I said oh, remembering what Sima Changkong said before leaving, it was obvious that he was a little unwilling to be lonely.

However, the more open and secret battles there are in the Tongmenghui, the more beneficial it is to me. At this moment, I really hope that Sima Changkong's ambition will be better!

However, a trace of suspicion suddenly arose in my heart about Bai Xiaosheng. Is this really Bai Xiaosheng's original intention? And what is the Duke Lu Mei, who started the martial arts tea party with him, doing now?
