"Your Majesty, don't you know that your second sister has broken off her engagement with Gu Qingfeng?"
Hong Xixiang frowned slightly and asked with a puzzled look on his face.
But after he asked this question, he found that his senior brother was glaring at him angrily, with cold eyes that seemed to reveal a trace of dissatisfaction!
However, Hong Xixiang has an extremely dull personality. He always speaks freely and does whatever he wants. He talks like farts and says whatever comes to his mind.
Therefore, he did not understand the meaning in Wang Zhonglou's eyes, but instead grinned and said somewhat proudly.
"The second princess came to cancel the engagement in person a few days ago. This matter has long been spread in Beiliang. Even our Wudang disciples have heard about it."
"Your Majesty, you still don't know about this? It seems that your intelligence ability is far worse than mine!"
As soon as these words came out.
Wang Zhonglou's face became even more gloomy, and the anger in his eyes was clearly revealed. Unable to contain the anger in his heart any longer, he clasped his fingers and struck Hong Xixiang on the head!
"Boo!!!"
A crisp knocking sound sounded.
In the blink of an eye, a huge red and swollen bump appeared on Hong Xixiang's head!
Severe pain surged into his heart, causing him to cover his head and scream in pain.
"Ouch, what are you doing?!"
"Brother, why did you hit me for no reason? Was what I said wrong?"
Seeing Hong Xixiang's confused face, not knowing how much trouble he had caused, Wang Zhonglou also shook his head and sighed helplessly.
My junior brother is good at everything, but he has no vision at all!
Didn’t you see that you had just coaxed the prince? !
The helplessness on his face deepened again, and he almost spit out a mouthful of blood because of Hong Xixiang's anger.
For this Wudang, I am exhausted physically and mentally!
Wang Zhonglou cursed in his heart, then ignored Hong Xixiang and hurriedly explained to Xu Fengnian.
"Your Majesty, Junior Brother Hong is just a nerd. If you listen to the wind, you will be the wind, and if you listen to the rain, you will be the rain. The divorce is probably a rumor I heard from others. Your Majesty, please don't listen to his nonsense!"
And at this time.
Xu Fengnian's eyes were dull, and he was stunned on the spot, causing a wave of excitement in his heart.
After all, he also knew that these two fools, Hong Xixiang, were innocent and frank by nature and would not lie at all.
Maybe...my eldest sister is attracted by this in him!
And to his surprise.
The second sister has actually broken off her engagement with Gu Qingfeng?
He originally thought that he could use the power of the old sword god behind Gu Qingfeng to drive King Zhenbei out of Beiliang.
Unexpectedly, the Xu family had already let this golden turtle son-in-law go?
Moreover, he drove him away with his own hands? !
Thinking that the Xu family had missed out on a swordsmanship prodigy who was rare to see in a century, Xu Fengnian's face was instantly filled with regret, and he felt like his heart was bleeding!
It seemed that the Northern Liang Crown Prince had learned the truth.
Wang Zhonglou frowned and sighed.
"Gu Qingfeng is indeed a rare swordsman. I heard that for this son, Li Chungang even went to Youzhou personally and cut off half of the fate of the Ouyang family to frighten the entire world. It can be seen that he has great feelings for Gu. Qingfeng does have very high expectations.”
"Now that you, the Xu family, have regretted their marriage to him and kicked him out of the Xu family without mercy, it can be considered a trick of fate, and you have brought it upon yourself."
Hear this.
Xu Fengnian also became very curious about Li Chungang and couldn't help but ask.
"Headmaster Wang, is Li Chungang really as powerful as you say? Can he actually become the best swordsman in the world?"
"I remember that the current number one in the world should be the one from Emperor Wu City, right?"
Without any hesitation, Wang Zhonglou nodded resolutely.
"Li Chungang is a natural swordsman. He is said to be the only person in the past thousand years who can rival Lu Zu in swordsmanship. Even the man you call the best in the world has lost to him six times."
"But it's a pity that he accidentally killed his beloved Lupao'er. His mood was in chaos, and his realm also plummeted. Even the world-famous sword Kaitianmen was unable to be used."
"The King of Beiliang saw that he was in such a miserable state, so he made a deal with him. On the condition that he build Tingchao Pavilion, Li Chungang would protect you and keep you safe. If it weren't for the emergence of evildoers like Gu Qingfeng, maybe You are the perfect candidate to teach him the art of swordsmanship."
After hearing Wang Zhonglou's explanation.
Xu Fengnian was shocked, and a look of shock appeared in his eyes.
He didn't expect that Li Chungang was so terrifying. Even the man from Emperor Wu City had put him under his control six times. He was really so terrifying!
The most important thing is that his own Tingchao Pavilion was built for him!
If it is true as Wang Zhonglou said, if Gu Qingfeng had not appeared, then he should be the one learning swordsmanship from him now...
Xu Fengnian's eyes trembled slightly, still a little in disbelief, and couldn't help but thought to himself.
"I don't know why, but I feel like I'm living in Gu Qingfeng's shadow?"
at this time.
Jiang Ni seemed to have thought of something, his eyes lit up, and he suddenly stood up and said.
"Since Xu Xiao has a deal with Li Chungang and wants to protect Xu Fengnian, the Xu family can also ask the so-called sword god to help the Xu family drive Zhenbei King and others out of Beiliang!"
"Even if we don't need Gu Qingfeng's help, we can still do it!"
Hear the words.
Wang Zhonglou helped Bai Xu, shook his head and smiled.
"So you still don't understand the characters of the past."
"Li Chungang has always been unruly and never obeys anyone's orders. Not even Xu Xiao can persuade him."
"If heaven had not given birth to Li Chungang, the way of swordsmanship would be as long as night. He alone is the way of swordsmanship, the whole world, and all the romance!"
"You want him to help your Xu family get through this calamity? It's just a fool's errand! However, he does what he says, and he won't make a mistake when he says he will protect you Xu Fengnian thoroughly."
"With him here, even if the Liyang royal family and the King of Zhenbei try their best, they can't take your life! It's just..."
At this point, he suddenly paused, with a tangled look on his face.
"Just what?"
Xu Fengnian was so anxious that he couldn't wait to know the next words.
Seeing the anxious expression on the face of the Northern Liang Crown Prince, Wang Zhonglou almost knitted his brows into a ball. After sighing, he slowly explained.
"It's just that Gu Qingfeng's father was a general under the King of Beiliang, and the King of Beiliang promised him that he would betroth the second princess to his son. Now that your Xu family has broken off the engagement so ruthlessly, he will definitely feel a sigh of relief in his heart. It’s hard to swallow the bad breath, and I might even want to deal with your Xu family!”
"If he really wants to kill you, I'm afraid Li Chungang won't be able to stop him..."
"I heard that before King Zhenbei entered the city, he left Beiliang, saying that he was going to Emperor Wu City to compete with him. But if you think about it carefully, is it really that simple?"
Hear this.
Xu Fengnian also realized something instantly, and his body was shocked!
His second sister had just broken off their marriage to Gu Qingfeng, and Li Chungang just regarded her as an old friend before leaving Beiliang and heading to Emperor Wu City. Is this too much of a coincidence?
If you want to discuss with the person from Emperor Wu City, when can't you do that? Do you have to choose this time? !
Xu Fengnian was naturally talented and intelligent, so it was not difficult to guess this from Wang Chonglou's words.
At this time, he could preliminarily judge that Li Chungang probably saw that Gu Qingfeng had hatred for the Xu family and did not want to get involved in the struggle between the Xu family and him, so he chose to go to Emperor Wu City.
It is better to say that it is to escape than to go!
On one side is the person he wants to protect, and on the other side is his old friend. He can't make a choice at all!
After deeply realizing this, Xu Fengnian sighed and said with a helpless face.
"Forget it, if Gu Qingfeng really wants to deal with my Xu family, then I will never show mercy!"
"So what if it was my Xu family who told the truth first? His father was a general under Xu Xiao. Now that Beiliang is in trouble, the Xu family must find a powerful family to marry. Even if he is unwilling, the marriage must be canceled!"
"He is a descendant of Xu Jiajun, he should have thought of this a long time ago!"
Hear what Xu Fengnian said.
Hong Xixiang, who was covering his head, suddenly stood up, shook his head, and said sternly.
"Wrong! Your Majesty, what you said...is a fallacy!"
"No matter whether Gu Qingfeng's father is Xu Jiajun or not, or how much he has contributed to your Xu family, once you agree to this engagement, you can never go back on it!"
"Treat others with sincerity. Honesty is the rule in the world. So what if the Liyang royal family and the King of Zhenbei are overpowering you? If you say it, you must do it!"
"I once swore that I would never go to Wudang until I become the best in the world! Although I, Hong Xixiang, am not a big person, I don't know if I will become the best in the world in the future, but at least I keep my word!"
"Even if Wudang declines and I never have the chance to be number one in the world, I will stick to this promise. Only with faith can we overcome all setbacks!"
Seeing how serious the Erluzi in front of him became at this time, Xu Fengnian couldn't help but be stunned, and his eyes revealed a bit of surprise.
But he still waved his hand and chuckled indifferently.
"Faith? Commitment? Haha, give your mother's shit!"
"Do you know how many years my eldest sister has been waiting for these bullshit oaths of yours?!"
"The Xu family is about to be destroyed and you are still talking about these things? It would be better to say these words on my grave after I die!"
"I, Xu Fengnian, have only believed in revenge all my life. If Gu Qingfeng really dares to take action against the Xu family, I will never spare him!"
As he spoke, a killing intent suddenly emitted from his body, and his eyes revealed endless anger.
To him, the Xu family is everything. Whether it is King Zhenbei or Gu Qingfeng, as long as he dares to touch a hair of the Xu family, he will never let it go!
Hong Xixiang felt a little ashamed after being scolded by Xu Fengnian, and a lonely look suddenly flashed in his eyes.
Xu Zhihu has indeed been waiting for a long time for his own beliefs...
But soon, his eyes became extremely determined again, and his fists were clenched.
Just thinking of Xu Fengnian's ruthless tactics, he suddenly hesitated again and continued.
"Whatever you say!"
"In my opinion, what you said makes no sense and is all wrong!"
After saying that, Hong Xixiang was afraid that Xu Fengnian would get angry and beat him up, so he hurriedly hid behind his senior brother. Although he looked a little timid, the perseverance in his eyes did not dissipate at all.
At the same time, he looked into the distance, with mixed feelings in his heart, and a trace of guilt could not help but arise in his heart.
I noticed that the atmosphere was getting worse and worse.
Wang Zhonglou took a step forward and asked calmly.
"Your Majesty, now that you have learned about what happened in Beiliang recently, do you still plan to go down the mountain?"
After all, he also knew that although he could use force to force Xu Fengnian to stay.
But this Northern Liang prince was very resourceful. If he didn't guard him all day long, he would definitely find a way to escape from Wudang.
Moreover, if his heart is really no longer here, no matter how hard he stays, he can't keep it.
Because of this, Wang Zhonglou planned to ask Xu Fengnian one last time. If he still insisted on going down the mountain, he would never stop him again.
Faced with Wang Zhonglou’s questioning.
Xu Fengnian frowned and fell into deep thought.
He also knows that the current situation of the Xu family is very unfavorable, but Xu Xiao has many extraordinary generals under his command, such as Chen Zhibao and Xu Yanbing, who are peerless masters. They can at least help the Xu family survive this period.
Even if Wu Taiyuan wanted to capture Beiliang again, there would be absolutely no chance.
It wasn't time for the real war to begin yet, so there was no need for him to run down the mountain and fight with others right now.
As for Gu Qingfeng, although his talent in swordsmanship is truly astonishing and he has a powerful swordsman like Li Chungang as his backer, he is still only a second-grade martial artist and cannot make any waves!
Think of this.
Xu Fengnian exhaled a breath, his face returned to calmness, and he spoke slowly.
"Headmaster Wang, I am willing to stay in Wudang."
"But for the sake of the Xu family, you must also teach me the sect's skills."
"You have to know that the fate of Wudang is closely tied to my Xu family. If the Xu family falls, you Wudang will not survive!"
"I must seize the opportunity to improve my cultivation during this period so as to prepare for overthrowing King Zhenbei in the future!"
Hear these words.
Wang Zhonglou finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's best if the prince can figure this out."
"Don't worry, even if you don't say anything, I will do my best to protect you in your practice."
"You have Dahuangting, and you are extremely talented. It won't take long for you to break through to the next level!"
Xu Fengnian nodded slightly, then raised the Spring Thunder Sword in his hand, intending to turn around and continue practicing swordsmanship over the waterfall.
But as soon as he took steps forward, he seemed to have thought of something, and turned around and said coldly.
"By the way, Headmaster Wang, I don't want to see this person."
"During the rest of my training, you let him herd cattle elsewhere!"
When Wang Zhonglou heard this, he glanced at Hong Xixiang, who had an innocent face, and suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
But after a pause, he still laughed.
"Don't worry, Prince, I won't let him bother you."
Hear this.
Xu Fengnian nodded, then turned around and left with satisfaction.
Jiang Ni sighed slightly and followed him without hesitation.
Watching the two figures drifting away.
Wang Zhonglou's eyes showed a hint of helplessness, and he said to himself.
"This time, I hope Wudang makes the right bet..."
