At dusk, the heavy snow that had been falling all day finally subsided. As the night approached, the chill was not reduced by half. The biting cold wind picked up the fine snow powder and roared open the inn door curtain! The inn was already full at this time. It was the middle of winter and the road was covered with heavy snow. Many wealthy businessmen and travelers passing through Yuzhou City rushed to the inn to rest before dark, ordering a few dishes of side dishes and drinking a few glasses of wine. , to drive away the coldness in the body, and to relieve the hard work of the journey, chatting, laughing, and urging people to drink mix together, making it very lively. "Miss, we have been out for several days. If you don't go back, I will scold you!" A thin young man said in a low voice in the private seat on the second floor. The reason why she is said to be thin is because she has a very gaunt appearance, with pointed cheeks, beautiful eyebrows, peach lips and almond-shaped eyes. If she were not dressed in a man's attire, it would really make people think that she is just a delicate little girl. What's even stranger is that the person called Miss is also dressed as a man, elegant and delicate, and extremely beautiful. Even compared to Song Yu Pan An, she does her job and shakes the brocade fan in her hand with a 'pop', blocking the On the side of his mouth, he said angrily: "Qiao'er, how many times have I told you, if you call me Young Master, it will be terrible if someone recognizes you!" "Oh~ I know, Miss!" "You said you knew!" The Miss's face changed. , and hit Qiaoer on the head with the fan. Qiao'er stuck out her tongue and said: "But young master, uh, should we go back to the capital at some time? We sneaked out, if you were the master~" "I know!" The young lady was a little impatient and said casually: " This Lu Dayan really didn¡¯t know anything about it, so he had to go there in person.¡± Qiao¡¯er looked a little ugly and said, ¡°Isn¡¯t he just a painting seller? Why are you making such a fuss?¡± Got it!" The young lady said proudly: "The painting is smooth and round, the colors are appropriate, and the scenery, characters, voices and smiles are lifelike. It is a masterpiece of craftsmanship, even compared to that of my master!" "Zhu Chaochen?" Qiao'er was startled and said, "How can a street painting seller have this level?" The young lady nodded and said with a smile, "Without this level, would I have done this in person?" "Then? That's true!" Qiao'er said. At this time, the second waiter of the shop passed by on patrol and came forward and asked: "You two gentlemen, would you like some more tea?" "Ahem~" The young lady moistened her throat and said in a hoarse voice: "Second brother, this Yuzhou City Is there a place that sells calligraphy and painting?¡± The waiter chuckled, ¡°There are so many that sell calligraphy and painting. Which one are you looking for?¡± ¡°Is there the best one?¡± The waiter scratched his head and thought for a while: "It's Moxuan Pavilion in the north of the city. It's the largest boat in the city and the quality is high quality." "Where are the stalls on the street?" Qiaoer interjected. "It would be nice to have a family under the big banyan tree in the east of the city, but the person setting up the stall doesn't seem to be a resident of Yuzhou City. He only goes to the city on the first day of the lunar month and the fifteenth day of the lunar month to go to the market. This morning, the stall was opened by someone, and the younger one went over to take a look. "Do you know what your name is?" the lady asked. "Are you kidding? There are tens of thousands of residents in Yuzhou City. That stall just started setting up at the beginning of the month, and it has only sold twice so far. How could you know him?" The waiter poured tea for the two of them and said I told the guest officer not to use it, and I went to take care of my own cooking business. The young lady was slightly disappointed, but suddenly thought of something, and said happily: "Hey~ isn't today the fifteenth day? Let's go and see if we can" Halfway through the words, she suddenly paused: "Qiao'er, what are you looking at?" Qiao'er looked downstairs in a daze, pointed downstairs, and whispered: "Miss, look, isn't that the little Marquis!" The young lady frowned, turned around, and her face suddenly changed: " Qi~Qi Longxuan! " Downstairs, Qi Longxuan sat alone by the window, looking at the falling snow outside the window. There were only a few bottles of wine on the table, and there were no cups or food. There seemed to be a sad look on his eyebrows, as if he was thinking. What was he talking about? His fingers tapped on the table from time to time, making a soft sound that was incompatible with the surrounding environment! "Master, look, Senior Brother Qi Long is sitting over there!!" A few Taoist priests carrying fairy swords opened the door curtain, ignored the waiter who came up to ask, and quickly walked towards Qi Longxuan in the corner! When Qi Longxuan heard the voice of his colleagues, he quickly stood up and saluted everyone: "I have met Master Xu, fellow junior brothers!" "There is no need for Master Qi Long to be polite, let's talk about business!" The person who spoke was named Xu Zhiqian, who was about fifty years old. He was among the group of people. He was the oldest and one of the four coaching elders of Lingxiu Peak. At this time, his face was still full of sorrow. He sat directly opposite Qi Longxuan, put his long sword on the table, and said: "On the way here, I have heard some rumors. I wonder if the seal of King Pan Temple can be saved? ¡± Qi Longxuan let out a long sigh: "The seal has been saved, but it's a pity that the master, in order to keep the seal, forced his own life fire to compete with the demons of the Demon Cult, and he has already died and turned into an immortal!" "Hey~~" Everyone heard this. He lowered his eyes and said nothing, but showed no look of surprise. It was obvious that he had learned this sad news when he arrived. After a long time like this, Xu Zhiqian suddenly asked: "Senior Brother Daoxu has reached the state of cultivation, and it is difficult to find an opponent in the world. Moreover, in this fierce battle with the demon clan, he has already asked for help from the two sects of Buddhism and Confucianism, and united with the three sects of the righteous way. Guarding together, the power should be no less than that of the evil sect. How could something like this happen?" Qi Longxuan said bitterly: "The Buddhist sect and the Confucian sect only sent a few outer sect elders to participate in the war, but the three demon sects came with all their strength. "The Righteous Way is outnumbered and lucky to be able to hold on to the seal!" "Humph!" Xu Zhiqian was furious and slammed his fist on the table: "My Spiritual Cultivator is the largest sect in the world, and Buddhism and Confucianism are already there!" I'm so greedy. This battle at King Pan's Temple is a great opportunity to use the evil cult to consume the power of Lingxiu Peak. How can they miss this opportunity? These people who neglect public affairs for personal gain are in vain! "That's not right!" At this moment, one of the people accompanying him suddenly realized something was wrong: "I remember Master Daoxu once said that under the Temple of King Pan, there is a generation of demon kings from the demon clan, and the three evil religions of demons, demons, and ghosts are sealed. There have always been intrigues and killings between each other. Are the demon and ghost factions crazy enough to help the demon clan rescue the demon emperor? " Xu Zhiqian was not surprised, and said: "The demon sect and the ghost sect are not reckless, how can they take risks? To save the leader of the demon clan at the risk of becoming an enemy of the three righteous religions? " Qi Longxuan's eyes lit up, and he immediately figured out the key: "Is there any treasure under this seal besides the demon emperor? " " That's right!" Xu Zhiqian raised his head and sighed: "Of course you, the descendants, don't know what happened in the previous generation. The treasures under King Pan's temple are eagerly desired by not only the cultists, but also the righteous sects!" "Huh~~?" Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Qi Longxuan seemed to have guessed something: "Could it be" "That's right! It's the artifact left by the Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan, the Qiankun Ding and the Taixu Observation Scripture." Xu Zhiqian said: "Xu Zhenjun, the founder of the Lingxiu Peak sect, was extremely talented back then. , invincible in the world, and even obtained the "Cauldron Alchemy Sutra" from Emperor Xuanyuan Huang. In the battle with the Demon Emperor, he sacrificed his entire body to form the Taoist Supreme Array, suppressing the Demon Emperor together in the "Three Talents and Strange Arrays" "Nothing I have gained in my life has been passed down to future generations. This time, the three religions of monsters, demons, and ghosts came out in full force, and they came for the "Tripod Alchemy Sutra". The Buddhist sect and the Confucian sect pride themselves on being noble. He dares to steal the biography of fellow masters and wants to use the hands of evil spirits to kill the power of the spiritual cultivation peak. Such evil intentions are even worse than those of the demon sect!" Xu Zhiqian spoke angrily, and everyone was filled with indignation. A square-faced man said angrily. "A group of despicable villains can actually be ranked as the Immortal Sect with Lingxiu Peak!" Do you want to give your last words?" As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent, and their eyes were as hot as fire. Although no one could tell it at this time, everyone could imagine that this cultivator would destroy his own life and lead to his own death. The life fire rushes into the spiritual apertures all over the body. Although it can increase the skill dozens of times, the person who does it will have no way out. As the leader of Lingxiu Peak, Master Daoxu will surely lose his power once he dies. His last words will undoubtedly be the person who will succeed him as leader! Qi Longxuan reached out and took out a piece of the leader's order from his arms, and said: "Master passed this order to me before he died, and ordered me to take over as the leader of Lingxiu Peak!" Xu Zhiqian was slightly disappointed, but after thinking about it carefully, this Qi Longxuan is the only disciple of Master Daoxu. He has been trusted by Master Daoxu since he was a child. Among the younger generation of Xianzong, he is known as the number one master. Master Daoxu has passed down the Yixian Sword to Qi Longxuan two years ago, so it is reasonable for him to take over the position of head. Xu Zhiqian squeezed out a smile and said: "Since it was given by Senior Brother Daoxu, we should do our best to assist the Master Nephew to carry forward the Lingxiu Peak!" Everyone accompanying them clasped their fists: "Congratulations to Senior Brother Qi Long for succeeding as the Master! " Xu Zhiqian felt a pain in his heart when he heard the congratulations from everyone. Although he had already expected the outcome, this inquiry was also based on the suddenness of the incident. Master Daoxu was ordered to face danger. Faced with a group of demons, all the sects of the righteous path were threatened. With the ambition to get involved in the world's largest sect, Qi Longxuan is extremely talented, but after all, his qualifications are still relatively young. Master Daoxu may not dare to pass on the great position to his descendants. This time, he felt that the overall situation had been decided, and it was difficult to say anything. However, he still held on to a glimmer of hope and asked: "I wonder if there will be anyone else to testify when Senior Brother Xu passes the position of head to you?" Qi Longxuan felt angry: " When?The war situation is urgent and everyone has too much time to take care of themselves. I remember that Elder Bai Junru from the Confucian sect, Elder Han Shifei from the outer sect of our sect, and several fellow practitioners in suffering were all present. I don't know if the others heard it! " Xu Zhiqian chuckled, reached out and patted Qi Longxuan's arm and said: "Master nephew, don't be offended. Master Xu is concerned about the rise and fall of the sect. He just wants to know more about the situation. He has no intention of doubting the nephew! " "Master Xu is too polite. In the future, I will rely on my uncle for advice on all matters related to the sect. How dare you blame me!" " Qi Longxuan pretended to smile and said: "Since all the brothers and sisters are here, let's rush to King Pan's Temple to meet up with the righteous sects! " "yes! "Everyone put their swords back on their backs. Just as they were about to get up, they heard a sudden commotion outside the door. Many people in the restaurant ran out to watch and talked about it. A little girl's voice came: "Mom, What do you see that person doing? " Before he finished speaking, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Hey, isn't that Su Junheng? Why is he covered in blood? I'll go take a look! " "return! "A stern scolding voice came: "Are you willing to die? This kid has offended Mr. Zhizhou. If you want to save him, don't hurt me. I still want to live for a few more years! " "Hmm~~" All the disciples of Lingxiu Peak frowned. One of them had a square face, a broad forehead, and a rather tall figure. He twisted the long sword in his hand and said loudly: "Master, I'm going have a look! " "Shi Gang! Xu Zhiqian stopped him in a hurry and scolded: "I don't know how many commonplace things happen every day. The court will provide justice. We have important things to do, so how can we delay here!" "Xu Zhiqian said, turned to Qi Longxuan and said: "Master nephew, let's~~" Before he finished the sentence, he stopped abruptly. Xu Zhiqian's eyes suddenly widened, and he looked around blankly. The restaurant was empty. Where was Qi Longxuan¡¯s shadow?
