It's sunny after the rain, the breeze blows on the branches, petals occasionally fall gently, and the yard is a little red.

There was an inexplicable impulse in Li Xiuyuan's eyes.

Everyone he knows has already gone to Yinchuan City, and even the two brothers and sisters who came uninvited from Phoenix City last night are about to leave.

And he didn't wait for the disciple who didn't know him from Tianlong Holy Land.

It's time to leave, heading east and then north.

Walking at the foot of Jade Dragon Snow Mountain and taking a unique route is what Li Xiuyuan really thinks about.

Thinking of the brothers Ximen Wuhen and Ximen Yuyan, as long as they didn't show up in Yinchuan City, they would probably kill Ximen Wuhen, but they didn't expect that they would take a detour to the depths of the snow-capped mountains, right?

And that guy Ouyang Xuan is probably still recovering. Naturally, he won't be able to explore the depths of the snow-capped mountains. In this way, once he enters the ruins, no one can threaten his safety.

When I think about the upcoming adventure, a feeling of confidence surges into my heart.

He led the little black horse all the way out of the inn and walked towards the streets of Niujiao Town.

The spring day is just right, and many farmers are driving their carriages to go to the fields to start the year's farming. All things are born in spring, and it is a good season for sowing.

Li Xiuyuan's face was as beautiful as the spring sunshine. He was wearing a purple bamboo hat and walking slowly on the street while holding his horse.

Ask the guy to go all the way east. After leaving the town, there is the road to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

The little black horse, which had been cooped up for several days, wanted to have some fun as soon as it left the inn. Li Xiuyuan had to pat its neck and said with a smile, "Don't worry, we'll talk about it after we get out of town."

When the little black horse saw Li Xiuyuan not letting go, he had no choice but to follow him obediently.

A carriage came from behind Li Xiuyuan from west to east. Seeing someone in front of him, the driver pulled the reins to make the horse run slower to avoid hitting the young man in front of him.

Just when the carriage passed by Li Xiuyuan, the curtain of the carriage was opened, and a black sword energy was as fast as lightning piercing Li Xiuyuan who was holding the little black horse.

This is a thin sword, a thin sword used to take someone's life when they are not prepared.

In an instant, Li Xiuyuan loosened the reins and shouted: "Run!" Then he turned sideways and retreated to the street.

He was retreating, and the lightning from the carriage continued to strike forward, but in an instant a man in black rushed out.

With a flick of his wrist, the Samsara Sword connected with the sword case blocked the thin sword thrust towards his chest.

"Ding!" With a sound, the thin sword was blocked by the Samsara Sword and made a crisp sound. After all, it failed to penetrate Li Xiuyuan's chest.

The Samsara Sword came out of the sword case with a clanking sound and turned into a bolt of lightning and struck back.

There was a popping sound, and the Samsara Sword struck out a fatal blow before the man in black could retract his rapier.

This was a sword he had learned over the past two days. It was an inconspicuous sword, but it pierced the right arm of the black-clothed killer in the blink of an eye.

The driver took a bad look, immediately abandoned his companions, cracked his whip vigorously, and shouted at the horse to gallop forward with its hooves.

The man in black with the sword in his right arm immediately pulled away and missed Li Xiuyuan like a streak of black smoke. Before he could even turn around, he flew over the houses on the street and disappeared without a trace.

Li Xiuyuan was stunned. This was the first time he encountered an assassin who could escape from his hands even though he missed a hit and was wounded by the sword.

With a flick of his hand, he placed an iron arrow on the iron bow and released his spiritual consciousness to lock onto the killer who had already driven away in the carriage.

With a sound of "Buzz!", the iron arrow passed through the pedestrians on the street and shot into the killer who was swinging his riding whip like lightning.

This was just an ordinary iron arrow. It passed through the long street in an instant, passed the pedestrians, and shot into the chest of the killer who was driving the carriage.

He couldn't look for the injured men in black after they hid in the houses, but he could catch the killer who was driving away in a carriage with one arrow.

A whistle blew, and the little black horse, which had run away in fright, ran over happily.

The next moment, a man and a horse rushed through the long street like the wind and galloped away from the town.

After catching up with the running carriage, Li Xiuyuan swung his sword to cut off the reins of the horse pulling the carriage, stepped off the horse, and pointed his sword at the still struggling man in black.

"Tell me, who asked you to kill me." At this time, Li Xiudi had no intention of killing anyone. He wanted to ask the mastermind behind this.

Who was targeting him again and again? He had just walked out of the inn when he met the killer.

The man in black tore off the black cloth covering his face, revealing a weathered face of a middle-aged man, who coughed out a mouthful of blood.

She looked at him and said with a smile: "You're just a little lucky... You also know how to be a killer, so you haven't thought about what will happen tomorrow."

Li Xiuyuan looked at him and sighed: "I don't torture people, really!"

"I know, I won't be tortured..."

Before the man in black finished speaking, he fell on the carriage with his eyes wide open, staring blankly at the young man in front of him.

Maybe even when he died, he couldn't understand that his companion's flawless blow could be dodged by this uncultivated young man in front of him.

Li Xiuyuan sighed, stretched out his hand to help the man in front of him, but saw a black dagger stuck in his chest, and a stream of black blood was pouring out.

This is a poisonous dagger, Li Xiuyuan sighed softly.

He took off the space ring of the killer in black, took out the items inside and rummaged through it.

Just as he expected, these killers would not leave any information behind.

In this way, he had no way of knowing whether these killers were bandits from the Snowy Holy Land or killers sent by the Loulan Wang family to pay for their murders.

Killers without provocation are the most terrifying.

After searching to no avail, a piece of talisman paper from Li Xiuyuan flew by, and a golden talisman fire instantly burned on the carriage.

He was attacked when he went out, which made him feel very speechless.

The only thing that can comfort me is that these two guys should not be the killers for whom the Loulan Wang family is offering a reward. Otherwise, if I have stayed in the inn for so many days, why would the killers not come?

But even so, it couldn't stop his determination to go all the way east.

A small Niujiao Town is already so dangerous. If you go to Yinchuan City, you will probably encounter more evil people.

Get on the little black horse and head east.

...

In Yinchuan City, Ouyang Chongming's residence.

Ximen Yuyan, who was sitting in the flower hall, looked a little reserved, but Ximen Wuhen and Ouyang Xuan were chatting happily, unlike Ouyang Xuan and Li Xiuyuan, who were at war with each other.

The spiritual tea was rising on the table. Ximen Wuhen took a space ring and put it on the table. He smiled lightly and said, "This is my father's idea. Please accept it, Elder Ouyang."

Ouyang Chongming looked at the silent Ximen Yuyan and said with a smile: "Is the little girl a little scared? After all, none of us have ever entered the ruins."

Ximen Wuhen looked at his sister's shy look and couldn't help but ask: "Who will lead the disciples in the Holy Land this time?"

"Who else could it be? Our Ouyang family's Ouyang Manxue, isn't his brother responsible for receiving you in Niujiao Town?"

Ouyang Chongming looked at Ximen Yuyan and said with a smile, "Don't be afraid. Ouyang Manxue, who is leading our trip to the Holy Land, is a few years older than you. Together, you can take care of each other."

Ximen Yuyan's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she said, "We met Ouyang Xiayun in Niujiao Town, but we didn't expect that his sister would also go exploring the ruins together."

Ouyang Chongming nodded, looked at Ximen Wuhen and said with a smile: "My dear nephew, you can rest assured that this trip to the Holy Land is all young people, and they just happen to be working together..."

Ximen Wuhen sighed heavily and said helplessly: "My sister's temperament is too gentle, and my father also wants her to go to the forbidden place to temper herself."

Ouyang Chongming nodded, looked at the two brothers and sister and said with a smile: "In a few days, when the people from Tianlong Holy Land and Phoenix City come to Yinchuan City to meet up, the large group of people will set off."

Ximen Wuhen nodded and asked: "Will the Holy Land send a long line to accompany us?"

"Of course, I will personally lead the team when the time comes. I will not return to Yinchuan City until they are sent to the ruins."

Speaking of this, Ouyang Chongming couldn't help laughing and said: "You are not afraid that there are so many of us and we will meet robbers halfway, are you?"

Ximen Wuhen was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "That won't happen... I have nothing to do, so just follow Elder Ouyang."

Ouyang Chongming looked at the two brothers and sister and smiled and said: "While there is still time, take your sister to visit more, buy some food, prepare some necessities such as clothes and herbs, Yinchuan City has these."

Ximen Yuyan thought for a while, looked at Ximen Wuhen and said, "Brother, I'm going to go shopping with Sister Murong."

Ximen Wuhen smiled and said, "Let's go then. Be careful on the road and come back early."

After listening to her brother's words, Ximen Yuyan flew out of the flower hall like a cheerful butterfly.

Looking at the place where Ximen Yuyan disappeared, Ouyang Chongming asked quietly: "I only gave Tianyun Mountain an iron plate. Is it possible?"

"Yes, my master found the master, and then I went to find the boy and asked him to hand over the iron plate."

Having said this, Ximen Wuhen sighed and said helplessly: "I didn't expect that guy was so fierce that he actually left Tianyun Mountain in a fit of anger."

"Your master is too careless. If your sister wants to enter, you can just come to Yinchuan City to find me. Why bother with that little guy..."

In Ouyang Chongming's view, the most terrifying thing in Tianyun Mountain was not the headmaster or the law enforcement elders, but the young man who cut off his disciple's arm with a sword without moving a muscle.

You must know that he was a murderer without blinking an eye. If the headmaster hadn't coughed that day, Ouyang Xuan would have died on the spot.

You must know that the two are thousands of miles apart in terms of cultivation, but the young man dared to fight with his sword on the snowy lake.

In his heart, how could the Ximen Wuhen in front of him be his disciple's opponent?

He didn't expect that the master and apprentice would force the young man to leave Tianyun Mountain for a small token.

In his opinion, as long as a young man from Zhufeng joins any holy land, he will be a presence that cannot be underestimated in the future.

When Ximen Wuhen heard this, he couldn't help but frown slightly, looked at him and asked: "That guy is just a young man who has not condensed his spiritual veins. Is he that scary?"

Ouyang Chongming sighed, looked at him and smiled bitterly: "There are some things, but you must not be deceived by your eyes..."

Ouyang Xuan nodded and said seriously: "In this case, I will give him some spiritual stones as compensation next time I see him."
