Chapter 11 Once the first genius of Xiyue City, he will definitely return strongly
Xiyue City!
In the chaos, the residents of the city were disturbed.
"What happened? Why did I just see that the city gates were blocked?"
"You don't know yet, right? Something big has happened."
"What's the big deal?"
"The young master of the Xiao family was killed."
"Hiss? What happened? Who killed him?"
"Who else could it be? Xiao Nuo, an abandoned son of the Xiao family. I heard that an inner disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect was also killed."
"Oh my God, this is so serious. Isn't the Tiangang Sword Sect angry?"
"Until the wrath of the Tiangang Sword Sect comes, the Xiao family will extract the bones and skin of the abandoned son of the Xiao family tonight."
"..."
In the streets and alleys of Xiyue City, the Xiao family's guard team shuttled back and forth as quickly as dragon boats.
Even in the dark alley, there are people searching everywhere with torches.
West City Gate.
"You all keep your eyes peeled. The master of the house has given an order. Even if we have to dig three feet into the ground tonight, we must find out the murderer."
"yes!"
"I have guarded all the city gates, and I must not let him escape."
"..."
On the backside of an attic about five hundred meters away from the west city gate, Xiao Nuo carefully retreated into the darkness.
It must be said that the Xiao family acted very quickly and sealed all the city gates immediately.
Although Xiao Nuo immediately planned to leave Xiyue City after killing Li Liu and Xiao Yong, how could two legs outrun four?
The Xiao family raised a lot of spirit beasts and horses. Xiao Xiong immediately had people ride the spirit horses and control the spirit beasts to block the road out of the city.
"It seems that we can only fight out by force..." Xiao Nuo's eyes flashed, and just when he was pressing the hilt of the knife behind him and preparing to go straight to the west city gate, a hand suddenly placed on Xiao Nuo's shoulder...
…
"Huh?" Xiao Nuo's heartstrings tightened, and he turned around, about to draw his sword.
"Brother Xiao Nuo, it's me!" the other party said quickly and solemnly.
"Qiang!" Dark Star Soul's blade illuminated a middle-aged face. Xiao Nuo looked at him in surprise: "How could it be you?"
The person who came turned out to be the manager Yan who traded "Flying Shadow Sword Art" with Xiao Nuo two days ago.
"What a risk!" Manager Yan looked at the magic knife in Xiao Nuo's hand and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. If Xiao Nuo didn't hold the knife back, he would probably get blood splattered on the spot.
Xiao Nuo looked at the other party alertly: "What are you doing here?"
"Shh!" Manager Yan made a low-pitched gesture: "Someone is coming, please leave with me first."
After saying that, Yan Guanshi turned around and fled into the darkness.
Xiao Nuo frowned slightly. He and the other party only met each other once. What was the other party's purpose?
However, Xiao Nuo couldn't let Xiao Nuo think too much. Not far away, there were more than a dozen people walking towards here holding torches.
He hesitated for a moment and then followed.
After a while...
Under the leadership of Yan Guanshi, Xiao Nuo came to a secluded courtyard.
This mansion is not in the center of the city and is far away from the main streets. Although the location is not outstanding, the decoration inside is quite luxurious.
"What's your purpose?" After Xiao Nuo entered the front yard, he didn't want to go any further.
Manager Yan turned around and said, "Someone wants to see you!"
"Who?" Xiao Nuo was even more alert.
"You'll know when you get in."
Immediately, Manager Yan made a "please" gesture towards Xiao Nuo, while he himself was waiting outside the door of the hall. Looking at him, he seemed to be quite respectful to the people inside.
Xiao Nuo was dubious, and after hesitating for a moment, he walked into the hall.
The hall is brightly lit and the decoration inside is very gorgeous.
In the hall, stood a figure with his back to Xiao Nuo.
That figure was actually a woman.
She was wearing a long blue dress, with a delicate hairpin in her long black hair. She had a graceful figure and a snow-white complexion.
But seeing Xiao Nuo enter the room, the woman turned around and saw a beautiful and moving face.
With exquisite facial features and a small oval face, she is definitely a rare beauty in the world.
"It's you..." Xiao Nuo recognized this person at a glance and called out the other person's name: "Gongsun Qing!"
Gongsun Qing, one of the five major families in Xiyue City, the eldest lady of the Gongsun family.
She is also the only daughter of the head of the Gongsun family. Gongsun Qing and Xiao Yuwei of the Xiao family are both famous beauties in Xiyue City.
The "Wanyu Tower" where Yan Guanshi is located belongs to the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce, and behind the Wanjin Chamber of Commerce is the Gongsun family.
Xiao Nuo grew up in Xiyue City, so he naturally knew Gongsun Qing, but the two had never crossed paths, and he never expected that the other party would find him at this time.
"As expected of the former number one genius in Xiyue City, even if he loses the 'Blood of the Sky Phoenix', he still has the same style."
Gongsun Qing's eyes were smiling, and he pointed to the two cups of tea that had just been brewed on the table, signaling Xiao Nuo to use the tea.
Xiao Nuo did not step forward, but asked: "If you have anything to say, just tell me! I don't like to beat around the bush."
Gongsun Qing's beautiful eyes sparkled slightly, but she was not angry, and then asked curiously: "Has your 'Tianhuang Blood' come back?"
"This seems to have nothing to do with you!" Xiao Nuo turned sideways.
"I'm just curious and asking."
Xiao Nuo did not answer.
Gongsun Qing curled his lips and continued: "Now that Xiyue City has been completely blocked by the Xiao family, you may not be able to escape. Even if you escape from Xiyue City, you will be endlessly hunted...
…”
"What does this have to do with you?"
"I can help you!" Gongsun Qing said.
"Huh?" Xiao Nuo was a little surprised. He looked back at Gongsun Qing's beautiful face. His eyes were bright and had a special charm: "The reason?"
"I just want to help you!"
"I said, I don't like beating around the bush..." Xiao Nuo looked at the other party solemnly: "If you have something to say, tell me directly!"
"Okay!" Gongsunqing immediately stopped talking nonsense and replied: "I think it will be useful to help you."
"What's the meaning?"
"The Xiao family has been developing very fast in the past few years. If we don't find a way to limit it, sooner or later we will ride on the head of the other four major families..."
"You want me to help you deal with the Xiao family?" Xiao Nuo understood the other party's intention.
Gongsun Qing did not deny it. She lightly opened her red lips and continued: "I don't really want you to help me! I just want to leave an unsolved problem for the Xiao family to see if it can be used in the future."
Xiao Nuo chuckled lightly: "With the strength of your Gongsun family, are you going to use such a small trick?"
In Xiao Nuo's impression, the Gongsun family is still very powerful. The Wanjin Chamber of Commerce he founded has a huge foundation. The family's business spans many dynasties and empires, and they even have contact with sects.
Even if the Xiao family has risen rapidly in recent years thanks to the Tiangang Sword Sect, it will not be able to surpass the Gongsun family in a short period of time.
"It is necessary to prepare for a rainy day." Gongsun Qing replied.
"oh?"
"According to the information we heard, Xiao's eldest son is very popular in the Tiangang Sword Sect. It is rumored that he has tempered the 'Jade Elephant Sword Body' and was promoted to a first-class disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect..."
Xiao Yi!
Hearing the words "Xiao's eldest son", Xiao Nuo's eyes felt cold. Xiao Yi was Xiao Xiong's eldest son and the biggest beneficiary of the Xiao family after his Tianhuang blood was taken away.
In the first year after the transaction between the Tiangang Sword Sect and the Xiao family was completed, Xiao Yi entered the Sword Sect to practice. Now three years later, the other party is no longer what it used to be.
Xiao Nuo couldn't help but clenched his fists. Ever since he joined the Tiangang Sword Sect, everyone in the Xiao family had gone to heaven, but Xiao Nuo was the only one who received the cold shoulder.
Although he was angry in his heart, Xiao Nuo was still sober.
"Are you worried that Xiao Yi's growth cannot be restricted?"
"Well, Xiao Yi's growth has been so fast that the other four major families have to pay attention..." Gongsun Qing looked at Xiao Nuo and said solemnly: "Besides, Xiao Yuwei and the young master of the Tiangang Sword Sect have
The relationship is also relatively close, if Xiao Yi and Xiao Yuwei are allowed to enter the upper echelons of the Sword Sect, then Xiyue City will definitely fall into the hands of the Xiao family."
Gongsunqing expressed her concerns.
Her beautiful eyes glowed brightly and softly, and she continued: "You are a thorn in the side of the Xiao family and a thorn in the flesh... As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so..."
"How do you want to help me?" Xiao Nuo returned to the topic: "You said it yourself just now, even if I can leave Xiyue City, I will be hunted endlessly. Can you find a place to protect me?"
"able!"
"oh?"
"This is the recommendation letter from the Piaomiao Sect..." Gongsun Qing picked up a letter from the table behind him and handed it to Xiao Nuo.
"Piaomiao Sect?" Xiao Nuo murmured.
The Piaomiao Sect, like the Tiangang Sword Sect, is one of the seven holy places of cultivation in the Eastern Wasteland.
In the eyes of the world, it is also a giant sect.
"Piaomiao Sect and Tiangang Sword Sect are rival forces. As long as you join Piaomiao Sect, you will be protected by the sect."
Gongsun Qing knew a lot about some things between sects, so she simply explained it to Xiao Nuo.
Xiao Nuo reached out and took the recommendation letter, seeming to be thinking about something.
Gongsun Qing said again: "In a few days, it will be the day for the Piaomiao Sect to recruit new members. If you go there with a letter of recommendation, you can successfully become an outer disciple without any examination. As for leaving Xiyue City, it will be easy. Tomorrow
In the early morning, my family's caravan will leave the city, and you can hide in the goods then. The Xiao family will give my Gongsun family some face for the time being and will not search carefully."
Xiao Nuo nodded slightly. This woman was very thoughtful and had all the subsequent plans planned.
However, Xiao Nuo still had doubts in his mind.
"Aren't you afraid that things will happen? If you offend the Tiangang Sword Sect, the consequences will be serious."
"Don't worry! As long as you don't tell them, they won't know. Even if they know, we still have an excuse to distance ourselves from you," Gongsun Qing said.
Xiao Nuo didn't say much.
Gongsun Qing warned again: "The friction between the Piaomiao Sect and the Tiangang Sword Sect has been fierce in recent years. If you join the Piaomiao Sect, you may often face people from the Tiangang Sword Sect, so be careful!"
"Thanks for the reminder." Xiao Nuo responded lightly.
Gongsun Qing smiled: "Then you have a night's rest first and follow the caravan out of the city tomorrow morning! The strict manager will arrange it for you."
Xiao Nuo nodded and clasped his hands slightly to express his gratitude.
Although the other party had ulterior motives for helping him, Xiao Nuo was still grateful in his heart.
After Xiao Nuo left, Gongsun Qing breathed a deep sigh of relief. She looked at the back of the young man outside the door with a somewhat complicated look in her eyes.
At this time, a hoarse voice came from behind Gongsun Qing...
"Isn't it worth taking the risk of offending the Tiangang Sword Sect for him?"
The hoarse voice came from an old man in black, who was leaning on a cane and was very old.
This person is the elder of the Gongsun family and the guardian around Gongsun Qing.
Gongsun Qing raised her eyebrows slightly and said with a smile, "Does Uncle Hei know what he looked like three years ago?"
"What does it look like?" the old man wondered.
"Three years ago, he was high-spirited, unruly and frivolous. Although he has been down and out and miserable in the past three years... I believe that the former number one genius in Xiyue City will definitely come back strong..."
The old man squinted his eyes: "You are gambling!"
"It is indeed a bet. I bet that he will meet the young master of the Tiangang Sword Sect in a few years..."
Gongsun Qing said word by word.
She looked at the star-studded sky outside, and seemed to see that not long after, under the vast and endless sky, there were two majestic, arrogant and unruly geniuses competing against each other...
