Behind Huo Jianghe, followed a middle-aged man, tall and wearing armor, with a strong look in his eyes. Xue Qin, who was about to leave, saw this man and suddenly stopped and bowed and saluted: "Father! Huo Senior brother!"
It was Xue Qian, the lord of Xuanjiang City who was killed by Zhang Xuan.
Behind the two people, there were more than a dozen young people, all about sixteen or seventeen years old, and all of them were of extraordinary strength.
They are all young talents who came to take the assessment this time.
"Nephew Jiang He..."
Seeing him coming here and interrupting Xue Chen who was interrogating, City Lord Xue Qian looked over in confusion.
Xuanjiang City selects talents, and as the city lord, he must accompany him in person. Who knows that Huo Jianghe has just finished the preliminary examination and has not yet conducted the reexamination. He insists on coming here, leaving him confused and confused.
"The re-examination is being held here. It just so happens that so many people are watching, and it can show fairness and impartiality!" Nodding, Huo Jianghe turned around and sat in the middle of the room.
During the assessment, he represented Lingyun Jiange. Even if Xue Qian was the city lord, he could only sit and take charge.
Xue Chen was confused.
He was being interrogated and came over for assessment. What should he do next?
"Senior Brother Huo, as a member of Xuanjiang City, can I take part in the assessment?"
Shan Xiaotian said loudly.
"Of course you can!"
Huo Jianghe nodded.
"Master Huo, this Shan Xiaotian is only at the sixth level of the Saint Realm and his strength is low. Not to mention colluding with bandits and harming the people. He has a low character. Letting him participate in the assessment is simply an insult to Jiange..."
Xue Chen was very anxious.
Although I knew that this guy would not be selected even if he took the exam, but... if he really wanted this kind of person to take part in the exam, the interrogation meeting would become nondescript.
"You said my strength is low?"
Shan Xiaotian looked over.
"That's right! Pojiao, the sixth level of the Holy Realm, is not as good as ordinary people. What is it if it's not inferior?" Xue Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Since you said that, I would like to ask...Second Miss, how strong is Xue Qin?" Shan Xiaotian said lightly.
"My young lady is a genius. She is only sixteen years old this year. She has already reached the three major perfections of the Great Sage and will break through at any time!" Xue Chen looked proud.
"hehe!"
Shan Xiaotian's eyebrows suddenly raised.
Buzz!
Streams of sword energy immediately shot out from the fingertips, and the iron chain on the wrist broke into pieces as soon as it touched the sword energy!
After breaking through the shackles, the aura on the young man's body continued to rise. In the blink of an eye, it stopped at the Great Sage's three great consummations. The bent back gradually straightened. It seemed just now that it was only about 1.6 meters, and it was completely stretched out. , although not as tall as Zhang Xuan, he is still about 1.75 meters.
The most important thing is that if you move forward slowly, your legs will not look like they are sloping!
Even his appearance seemed to have changed, becoming more resolute and handsome. The dozen or so young men before him were all ashamed in comparison.
"This is impossible..."
Xue Qin's eyes were about to fall to the ground, and she was going crazy.
In her heart, this guy was synonymous with being weak and useless. She never dreamed that he would suddenly change drastically, as if he was a different person!
Ignoring the shocked girl, Shan Xiaotian took a few steps, looked at Xue Chen not far away, and raised the corner of his mouth: "At the same level, I am a waste, and the second lady is a genius... I don't know what coach Xue Chen's judgment is. Of? Toes or butt?”
"you……"
Taking a step back, Xue Chen trembled.
When will this guy be able to practice? And also... the three major perfections of the Great Sage?
Not only them, but everyone around them was also silent.
The reason given before was that this guy couldn't practice and wanted to rely on the city lord's mansion to save his life, so he colluded with the bandits to prevent Xue Qin from becoming a disciple of Jiange. Now... he has strength and is so strong, so there is no reason.
More convincing!
"You all take action together to deal with me..."
With a faint smile, Shan Xiaotian looked at the dozen or so teenagers brought by Senior Brother Huo.
"Let's attack together?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment, and when they saw Senior Brother Huo nodding in agreement, their eyes flashed, and they all stabbed at him with the long swords in their hands.
Shan Xiaotian made a sword with his fingers together, grabbed it forward, like an eagle's claw, and immediately pinched the long sword from a young man's hand. With a flick of his wrist, he pulled out the sword flower.
Sizzle!
More than ten rays of sword energy shot out from the tip of the sword.
Although I only learned one move, "Throwing the Sword" from the teacher, the teacher explained a lot about the basics of kendo, and his combat effectiveness was extremely strong even without using any special moves.
Just like Xiao Li's flying knives, he doesn't only know how to throw flying knives. Without the flying knives, he is still one of the top ranked warriors in the world.
Dang! Dang! Dang!
The sword energy flew out, and there was a sound of a long sword falling to the ground. More than ten teenagers covered their wrists at the same time, and their eyes were filled with fear.
The sword move that Shan Xiaotian used casually just now stabbed them all in an instant!
Thanks to my mercy and my lack of strength, otherwise, my wrist might have fallen directly to the ground.
call!
With a flick of his fingers, the long sword was thrust diagonally in front of Xue Qin like lightning, shaking constantly and making a whimpering sound. Shan Xiaotian looked arrogant like a poplar stuck in the wind: "I don't know... As a genius, the second young lady,
Can you do what this loser like me just did?"
"..."
There was a moment of silence.
More than a dozen people surrounded them, and they grabbed swords without moving their bodies, stabbing everyone in the wrist with one sword... This strength and swordsmanship are simply shocking!
If people like this are trash...who do they think they are?
Xue Qin's pretty face turned pale, and her delicate body trembled.
Although they are both the Great Sage and the Three Great Consumms, she can never do this!
If you really want to rush over, you may be defeated instantly like everyone else.
"Even if you are not a waste... it is true that you colluded with bandits. Your neighbors can all testify that there are bandits in your house late at night..."
Xue Chen gritted his teeth.
"You all saw with your own eyes that bandits entered my mansion?"
Without answering his words, Shan Xiaotian turned to look at the two witnesses who had just walked out.
"Yes...it's absolutely true!"
"We really... saw it!"
Being stared at by him, the two of them shrank their necks at the same time.
If the other party is still unable to practice, that's fine. He can practice, and his talent is so high. Thinking of the power of the Shan family back then... everyone suddenly became a little afraid, and his words were not as confident as before.
Just when they were frightened, Shan Xiaotian's voice sounded: "That's right when you see it...it means you are telling the truth!"
"Um?"
The two of them stayed together at the same time.
Right?
Do you know what you are talking about?
This is tantamount to admitting to colluding with bandits. Even if he is very talented, strong, and morally corrupt, Lingyun Jiange cannot accept him as a disciple.
Everyone else was also in an uproar.
"Haha, just admit it. Now that you have admitted it, there is nothing more to say. Come on, why don't you arrest this guy who colluded with the bandits..."
Xue Chen was also stunned for a moment, and then looked ecstatic.
I thought that the other party showed his strength and would not admit it even if he died or died. In that case, his plan would be very passive. I never expected that this guy would be so heartless that he would admit it directly!
And in front of so many people!
Now, there is no room for maneuver... It is like putting a big hat on your head, and you will definitely die!
"Catch him?"
With a cold smile, Shan Xiaotian suddenly bowed and clasped his fists: "Senior Brother Huo, I want to pass on a witness now, and I hope you will agree!"
"Um!"
Huo Jianghe nodded.
"Come in!" Shan Xiaotian looked outside.
Along with the words, a figure wearing a black robe and a bamboo hat walked in from outside, came in front of everyone, and slowly took off his hat.
"It's Cao Chengcheng!"
"The bandit leader..."
"He actually dared to come to the City Lord's Mansion and kill him..."
"Shan Xiaotian invited him in. It seems that the two of them are really colluding..."
…
After seeing the figure clearly, there was an uproar below.
It was none other than the bandit leader...Cao Chengcheng!
This guy has always been hiding in the deep mountains and old forests. The city lord's mansion has been encircling and suppressing it several times without success. Now he dares to come here. He is too courageous!
"Have you seen this? This Cao Chengli actually listened to him. Obviously, he has already colluded..."
Xue Chen almost jumped up with excitement.
Everything that happened before was not proven, at most it was just forged evidence. Now this guy actually brought this bandit leader...
It will definitely never be cleaned again!
"Collusion?"
Shan Xiaotian sneered and looked at the black-robed bandit in front of him: "Who is colluding with you... please ask the leader of Cao Village to answer it himself!"
"It's him..."
Cao Chengcheng took a step forward and pointed at Xue Chen and Xue Qin: "And she..."
"What nonsense are you talking about? Stop spitting blood..."
Xue Chen raised his eyebrows.
"Spurting people with blood?" Cao Chengcheng clenched his fists and took a step forward: "Yesterday, this Xue Chen came to see me specifically and commissioned me to kill someone. As long as he succeeds, the reward will be 50,000 divine coins! I asked about it
Suddenly, I realized that the person I wanted to kill had no strength and was a waste, so I agreed on the spot..."
"kill?"
"waste?"
Some smart people in the crowd had already guessed it, and they all looked at Shan Xiaotian not far away.
In these years, he is the only one who has carried this reputation.
"Yes, it's Mr. Shan Xiaotian!"
Cao Chengcheng continued: "I went to ambush at night, and the result... Master Xiaotian's strength was beyond imagination. Naturally, I couldn't succeed! So, the whole army was wiped out and he killed them all..."
His men were killed by horses and chariots. This was really shocking. No one would believe it if he told it. It was better not to tell it.
"I was lucky enough to escape and find this Xue Chen again. He only gave me five hundred Tongshen coins... I was very angry at the time and wanted to see who it was, so I followed him quietly and found out
The two of them entered the City Lord's Mansion, and happened to see the scene recorded by this jade crystal..."
With a flick of his wrist, Cao Chengli released the images recorded last night.
Everyone immediately saw Xue Chen standing in front of the crowd in the strict city lord's palace, asking many guards to change into bandit clothes, and solemnly confessed that Shan Xiaotian's family would be killed!
