The old man in green looked at the three-foot green peak and walked straight towards Xiao Chen, smiling.
Xiao Chen, on the other hand, was shocked. Damn, why did he come to him?
However, now is the time not to think about this!
With a flash of thought, Xiao Chen retreated violently. At the same time, Gu Wu's mental skills were running wildly, and his inner energy surged into his fist, forming Gang Qi, and he punched out.
Bang!
His fist collided with the three-foot green peak. A look of surprise flashed in the beauty's eyes, and the hand holding the sword was slightly numb!
After being surprised, she did not retreat, but waved her right hand and stabbed out with another sword.
The old man in green clothes next to him also showed a little surprise. Body-protecting Qi? Isn't he just in the late stage of Anjin? How could he have body-protecting Qi?
Then, he thought of something, his eyelids twitched, and a bright light flashed in his eyes.
"Come again?"
Xiao Chen frowned slightly as he watched the beautiful woman strike with another sword, then glanced at the old man in green who was staying away from the incident.
"Okay, you want to play, right? Then I'll have fun with you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure swayed, and with strange footwork, he was in front of the beautiful woman in an instant.
As he approached, the beauty's fighting spirit became stronger, and the three-foot green peak in her hand turned into a cold light, covering Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen was slightly surprised. He was indeed Mr. Nangong’s apprentice. He was very strong! Moreover, this swordsmanship was exquisite and far surpassed that of Hao Jian!
Bang!
Xiao Chen stretched out his right hand and grabbed the sword's edge.
The beauty frowned slightly, wasn't he afraid that his palm would be cut off?
She shook her right hand, trying to avoid the sharp edge, but... before she could avoid it, Xiao Chen's hand had already grasped her long sword.
The corners of Xiao Chen's lips curled up. Although this little girl used the sword whenever she came up, she was still quite kind-hearted.
However, it’s time to end here!
He grabbed the long sword and exerted force. The beauty's hand holding the sword hilt shook slightly.
"release!"
Xiao Chen gave a soft drink, unleashed his inner strength, and rushed towards the beauty along the long sword.
"break!"
The beauty let out a long roar, raised her left hand, and slapped Xiao Chen fiercely, obviously unwilling to have her sword taken away.
Xiao Chen was surprised. Is this reaction fast enough?
He looked at the beauty's left hand and had to let go of the sword and take a few steps back.
Whoosh!
The beautiful woman holds the sword and steps forward again.
"Ling'er, stop, you are no match for Xiaoyou."
The old man in green clothes spoke.
Hearing the words of the old man in green, the beauty stopped and turned her head to look over.
"You lost."
The old man in green smiled.
"If it was a life-and-death battle, you would be lying on the ground right now."
"snort!"
The beauty looked at Xiao Chen and snorted, obviously feeling a little dissatisfied.
"Beauty, how about we just treat it as a tie?"
Xiao Chen looked at the beauty and said with a smile.
"Who wants to tie with you? Wait for us to try again. I don't believe that you can't even beat An Jin in the late stage!"
The beauty stared.
"..."
Xiao Chen was speechless, what he said...why do you look down on An Jin's later stage so much?
"Little friend Xiao, let me introduce to you. This is my apprentice Ling'er. Haha, I have spoiled you since I was a child. Please forgive me."
The old man in green clothes stepped forward and said with a smile.
"Ling'er, this is..."
"I know, Xiao Chen, you mention it so often that it makes my ears tingle."
The beauty nodded and curled her lips again.
Xiao Chen was a little surprised when he heard the beauty's words. Does Mr. Nangong often mention himself?
"Haha, Ling'er? What a good name. A beautiful name is even more beautiful."
"Is that what you called Ling'er? My name is Nangong Ling!"
The beauty stared at Xiao Chen and said.
"Um...Okay, Nangong Ling."
Xiao Chen nodded, a little surprised, didn't he say he was an apprentice? How come his surname was Nangong?
He looked at the old man in green clothes, but the latter had no intention of explaining.
"Come on, let's go sit inside."
The old man in green said something to Xiao Chen, turned around and walked into the house.
Xiao Chen suppressed his wonder and looked at Nangong Ling. Couldn't she be Mr. Nangong's granddaughter? No, how could a granddaughter be called an 'apprentice'?
"What are you looking at? I've never seen a beautiful woman before!"
When Nangong Ling saw Xiao Chen looking at her, she glared and said.
"Um, I've seen it before, but never such a beautiful one."
Xiao Chen said with a smile.
"Humph, you have a smooth tongue, and you don't look like a good person at first glance."
After Nangong Ling finished speaking, she followed the old man in green and walked inside.
"..."
Xiao Chen looked at her back, dumbfounded. She was glib. At first glance, she was not a good person.
This is the first time someone has said that to him!
Immediately, he shook his head and followed in.
When I came to the house, I saw an old man in green sitting down.
"Ling'er, go make tea... Xiaoyou, please sit down."
"good."
Xiao Chen nodded and sat next to him.
Nangong Ling glared at Xiao Chen again, then turned around to make tea.
"She...is an orphan."
Suddenly, the old man in green said.
Hearing the words of the old man in green, Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment, then realized that he was talking about Nangong Ling.
After saying this, Xiao Chen suddenly realized that he was an orphan, and his surname was "Nangong", which made sense.
"This girl has been spoiled by me. She seems a little arrogant and unreasonable, but she is actually very kind-hearted and... very fragile."
The old man in green said slowly.
"Don't be surprised by what happened just now. I often mentioned you to her, so maybe she had some thoughts of comparison."
"Haha, it's nothing."
Xiao Chen smiled and hesitated.
"Mr. Nangong, what state has she reached?"
"The secret energy is perfect, half-step into energy."
The old man in green said with a smile.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen's eyes widened, so strong?
"So, she keeps hearing me praise you, so she feels unconvinced."
The old man in green chuckled.
"Okay, why are you praising me for nothing?"
Xiao Chen couldn't laugh or cry.
"Even if I don't praise you, I can't hide the fact that you are on the list of geniuses, so she wants to challenge you."
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded, but murmured in his heart, if he wants to challenge me, he will have to pay for it!
While they were talking, Nangong Ling came in from outside carrying a tea tray.
Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Ling and saw that he had perfected his secret energy and turned into energy in half a step?
But why didn't he feel her breath?
Could it be that there is a treasure on her body that covers her aura?
Nangong Ling noticed Xiao Chen's gaze and frowned slightly: "Why do you keep looking at me?"
"Well, just now Mr. Nangong said that you were half-stepped, and I was quite surprised."
Xiao Chen explained.
"What, are you scared?"
Nangong Ling raised an eyebrow.
"Haha, that's not the case."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"If you have the ability, go out and fight with me again."
Nangong Ling's fighting spirit surged.
"No, I don't hit women."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"What?!"
Hearing this, Nangong Ling's eyes widened and he didn't hit the woman? Does this mean that he thinks he must be better than her?
"Nothing, Mr. Nangong, let's have tea."
Xiao Chen looked at the old man in green, this little girl... it's better not to mess with her.
"Ling'er, you are no match for Xiaoyou."
The old man in green smiled.
"Sit down and drink tea, or go practice sword practice."
"Master, who said I am not his opponent...just a late-stage Anjin."
Nangong Ling was not convinced.
"The realm is just the realm, it does not mean the strength...I heard that there is already a master of energy transformation who has been lost in the hands of Xiaoyou."
The old man in green said.
"It's not one hand, it's two hands."
Xiao Chen corrected him, feeling quite satisfied.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, not to mention Nangong Ling, even the old man in green was slightly surprised. What more?
"Hmph, who knows what conspiracy method was used to defeat the master of Huajin."
Nangong Ling snorted, but still didn't say anything about challenging Xiao Chen, and turned around and went out to practice swordsmanship.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen looked at Nangong Ling's back and smiled.
"Mr. Nangong, your apprentice is quite cute."
"cute?"
The old man in green clothes was startled, and then he smiled.
"You are the second person to say she is cute."
"Who's the first one?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"I."
The old man in green clothes said, picked up the tea and took a sip.
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded and started drinking tea.
"How did you feel when you went to Bati last time?"
The old man in green asked.
"Fortunately, I went to the Badi branch to have a look..."
Xiao Chen nodded, wondering in his mind, what happened when Mr. Nangong called him here?
"That old drunkard is full of praise for you...and he's also yelling that he wants East China to put up conditions on how he can be released."
The old man in green said with a smile.
"Well, Senior Jiuxian... is a man of temperament."
Xiao Chen twitched the corner of his mouth and said.
"Well, but Badi is not suitable for you."
The old man in green nodded.
"Stay in East China well and don't get involved in some things...I heard that you are leaving in a few days, right?"
"right."
Xiao Chen wondered what the first half of the old man's sentence in green meant.
"Don't worry, the Dragon King and I will take care of your worries."
The old man in green clothes put down his tea cup and said slowly.
Hearing this, Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment and then reacted: "Thank you, Mr. Nangong."
"Haha, no need to thank me, this is what you should do."
The old man in green shook his head.
Xiao Chen was surprised. He wanted to ask, but he thought it was impossible to tell him, but... what exactly was going on?
The old man in green didn't talk about this topic anymore, but talked about other things, including Nangong Ling.
"By the way, you haven't answered my question yet."
"What's the problem?"
Xiao Chen was startled.
"How is my apprentice?"
The old man in green looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Well... she is beautiful, highly talented, and has strong swordsmanship."
Xiao Chen praised.
"Haha, I hope you can take more care of her when you travel around the world in the future."
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, the old man in green smiled.
"Definitely."
Xiao Chen nodded.
Afterwards, the two of them had a casual chat.
After about half an hour, Xiao Chen left.
When he left the house, he saw Nangong Ling standing under the tree, dancing with a sword. The sword light was sharp and the sword intent was soaring to the sky.
"People are beautiful, but swords can kill people... In the future, she will be like a fairy sister again."
Xiao Chen watched Nangong Ling dancing with his sword and thought of Fairy Ning.
However, compared to Nangong Ling, Fairy Ning has a bit more immortal energy, as if it comes from the nine heavens.
"I miss Fairy Sister a little bit. I don't know when her nirvana will be over..."
