The middle-aged man had a dignified appearance, handsome and perfect facial features, except for his slightly white temples, his forehead covered with wrinkles, and his long beard hanging down in front of his throat.

Otherwise, given a few years of youth, he would have been a handsome man in his youth, with a handsome appearance, a pair of piercing pupils under his sword-shaped eyebrows, bottomless black, full of energy, a few crow's feet left by the years on his eyelids, and a wide mouth and thin lips.

, his bright hazel eyes looked at Ge Guanting, shooting out two sharp and cold rays of light.

Ge Guanting avoided his gaze for some unknown reason and saw the middle-aged man wearing a gray robe and a purple brocade belt binding his hair. The purple brocade belt fluttering in the wind gave him a somewhat elegant and handsome air.

After a while, he raised his head and looked at the middle-aged man again. For some reason, Ge Guanting had an inexplicable liking for him. He seemed to have seen these facial features before. He felt very familiar and friendly.

"Ge Guanting, aren't you my father's apprentice? Why are you standing there stupidly without being polite when you see him? You are indeed a dull scholar." Seeing that Ge Guanting didn't respond, Xiao Wuguang said a little impatiently.

The middle-aged man looked angry, glared at Xiao Wuguang, and said coldly: "Don't be rude."

Ge Guanting was horrified and suspicious. He shook his head slowly and thought, "Hey! Why does Mr. Xiao look different from the one I saw back then? Could it be that Mr. Xiao has changed his appearance?"

The middle-aged man seemed to have noticed Ge Guanting's thoughts, and cast his eyes on Leng Yuchen. Leng Yuchen nodded slightly. After a brief exchange of eyes, he only pretended to understand the meaning, and it was indeed remarkable.

Listen to Leng Yuchen explain: "This is Master Xiao Yanqiu. I know you must have doubts in your heart. Just because the master had the secret book "Jian Zun Sword Qi" that is not passed down by the Jian Zun Sect back then, he had to disguise himself and change his name to hide it from others.

Back then in the suburbs of Liushui Town

The battle outside was a duel with Xiao Shangquan, the No. 1 Chief of the Sword Master Sect, Chigan Sect, because Master Xiao Shangquan was motivated by interests and coveted the sword manual. The master was the eldest son of the sect leader, so he had the right to keep the sword manual.

But he refused to accept it, so the teacher suffered misfortune."

This was said so tactfully that even a smart person would have a hard time finding a flaw, let alone this stupid idiot Ge Guanting.

Ge Guanting was completely convinced. He immediately knelt down in front of Xiao Yanqiu with his legs heavy and bowed: "Master Xiao, oh no! Master, my disciple Ge Guanting finally came to see you. Back then you gave me the sword manual and asked me to learn it by myself."

I have become a talented person and asked me to be an upright man. I was very frightened all over the pavilion. I have lived up to my trust, and I can finally return the sword book to its original owner."

Xiao Yanqiu listened to these words and looked up and down in front of Ge Guanting with sharp eyes. His dark eyes sometimes shrank and sometimes enlarged, and he thought in his heart: "How wonderful that Xiao Shangquan has accepted such a talented disciple. In just ten years,

, can actually be self-taught. After practicing the "Jianzun Sword Qi" to the fifth form, his internal strength is quite strong and moderate, with brilliance inside, and two Qiankun stones to protect his body, but his skills are not good enough. If someone can give me some advice. This is

He will definitely be better than me when he is thirty-five years old. If he is used by Xiao Shangquan, wouldn't he have a strong opponent if he kills Xiao Shangquan one day? But it is a pity to kill him. If he can seal the Qiankun Stone in his body, with what he has,

With little skill, it is difficult for me to gain a foothold in the Divine State. Isn’t this plan of killing someone with a borrowed knife better than killing me and ruining my reputation as a chivalrous person over the years?”

After thinking for a while, Xiao Yanqiu slowly said: "Please, my child, we will talk about the sword manual later. Alas! Master has really been ashamed of you in the past few years. Although he accepted you as his disciple, he did not teach you any moves." , I will also give you this sword manual to increase your burden as a disciple. It is also an honor for the teacher and a blessing for the teacher that you have achieved such an achievement."

Xiao Yanqiu suddenly looked at Fu Antai and said:

"I heard from the imperial minister that you and An Tai started to have a misunderstanding. When you were fighting with him, you accidentally injured him, and he was poisoned by the six qi. If you hadn't been generous and kind, ignored the past grudges, and found a good medicine for him, I'm afraid you would have paid Second Senior Brother You have died a long time ago. Master is very pleased to do this, and because An Tai's moral character is lacking, it is difficult for him to be qualified for the position of deputy flag master. Therefore, from today on, master appoints you as the deputy banner master of Cheng Kun Xi, and you will directly take orders from him. I will wait for you to finish the imperial examination in a few days and the imperial list will be revealed. If you are in high school and there is someone in the master's court, ask him to transfer you to Shu. If you lose your reputation, don't be sad. Master will also take you back to Shu and let you pay a visit. Now, your master, I want you to worship me in a dignified way. What do you think?"

Ge Guanting's dream was to be worshiped by a famous and upright sect, receive formal and systematic martial arts, and become a hero who can slay demons with his sword.

He had no intention of thinking about the imperial examination. He was very happy to hear this arrangement. He couldn't help nodding his head frequently, and his happiness was beyond words. Suddenly his heart skipped a beat. He thought of something, shook his head, frowned and said sadly: "Master, this arrangement is very good. It's just that the disciple has a close brotherhood with Hu Liqin, the leader of the Liukong Sect, and the meaning of Jinlan is that he was kidnapped by Gou Yibo, the elder of the Beicang Sect a few days ago, and his life is in danger! Therefore, the disciple must go north to rescue him after the imperial examination, and also I hope Master will forgive me."

Xiao Yanqiu wiped his beard, looked at Ge Guanting with satisfaction, and said in his heart: "This boy is kind-hearted by nature. If he shows me a small favor, he will definitely mess up my brain. Although he has a high understanding of martial arts, he is too stupid and stupid. It suits me, haha!”

After thinking about it, he nodded slowly, looked at him with admiration, and said: "Well, Guanting, you are kind and chivalrous. How can master blame you for no reason? I should be proud of you. You can Go north with peace of mind, and after the matter is resolved, you must go to Jianzunmen to see your master."
