As soon as this answer was spoken, Xinghun's face darkened obviously.
This sentence is actually not very harmful. It is recognized in this world that the only person who can calmly face the Sword Master Gai Nie alone is Gu Xun, the Imperial Master.
No matter how famous Xinghun is as a genius, he looks like a young man of about fifteen years old at most. Who can guarantee that he alone can stop Sword Master Gai Ni?
Even Xinghun himself, who has always been conceited, would not dare to say such words, especially since protecting people is more difficult than killing people.
Que Xie used this as an excuse. It was reasonable and reasonable, and it did not embarrass Xinghun. At most, it was a bit more straightforward.
But Xinghun's character... is different from ordinary people. He is proud, arrogant, and arrogant... These characteristics are the main components of his character.
A person is often very complicated, and Xinghun is no exception, but no matter how many thoughts he has deep inside, on the outside, he is an arrogant and arrogant young man who cannot tolerate the slightest comment from others.
The so-called heart is higher than the sky, and life... is almost as thin as paper. This is the star soul.
He can say that he is not as good as Ge Nie, but others cannot say it anyway. If they say it, they will offend him.
Obviously, Quexie has offended him badly now.
Xinghun never hides his emotions, and he doesn't bother to hide his emotions, so Quexie can tell at a glance that this strange-looking genius boy is probably thinking about him, but he doesn't care much.
A defective product spawned by Yin-Yang magic, with an immature mind and a little cleverness at most, and who might suddenly die suddenly one day, is not worth taking seriously.
"In that case, why didn't you just help me keep Gai Nie!?" Star Soul stared at Que Xie with cold eyes and asked in a hateful voice.
Que Xie lowered his head and did not look at Xinghun at all. Yousheng replied, "With Gai Nie's strength, even if I join forces with Lord Protector, I have no chance of winning. On the contrary, it will be easier for the enemy to seize the opportunity to threaten General Meng."
Safe."
"No matter what, General Meng's safety is the top priority - this is the order I received."
Meng Tian looked at the increasingly tense atmosphere between the two. At this time, he no longer cared about being angry that the captive had been rescued, and took the initiative to speak up and expose the matter:
"Since everything happened for a reason, I won't argue with you this time!"
To be honest, Meng Tian was actually very angry and dissatisfied with Que Xie, because this operation was not only to wipe out a rebel stronghold, but also to regain the stolen black dragon scroll.
The latter may involve the empire’s top secrets!
If he can't catch anyone, at most it's because he was ineffective in encircling and suppressing the rebellious people. He managed to survive with just a few words of warning, but if he can't find the Black Dragon Scroll, then he will have to settle the account with the responsibility for the previous loss, and the crime will be increased.
However, firstly, Quexie's actions are reasonable and well-founded, making it difficult for people to find fault. Secondly, he is really unwilling to get involved in the trap, which is meaningless except for causing more trouble.
What's more important is that Meng Tian doesn't bother to shirk responsibility and let others take the blame.
In any case, he, the commander-in-chief, was mainly responsible for falling into the trap of luring the tiger away from the mountain and allowing the enemy to take away the prisoners.
As soon as Meng Tian said his words, the matter was settled. Although Xinghun still looked dissatisfied, he stopped talking.
Meng Tian shook his head secretly, but with a calm expression on his face, he cupped his hands and said, "Now that things have happened, does Mr. Xinghun have any idea of the next road?"
Xinghun was in a bad mood, but Meng Tian’s identity was extraordinary, and he wouldn’t make a fool of himself casually, so he still answered the other party with a sullen face:
"The position obtained by mind reading is too general after all. The specific position must be driven by the other person to correct it bit by bit. Now that the person has been rescued, there is nothing to say."
"Gai Nie acted just to attract attention and create opportunities for his accomplices."

Tianming held Shengxie in one hand, and flicked the sword with his fingers on the other hand, making crisp sounds one after another.
There is no real meaning in what he does. It is purely a mechanical imitation of Master Xu - he often snaps his fingers at the sword.
However, Mrs. Xu can hear the sound of a sword and tell whether there are any defects in the texture and craftsmanship of the sword... Wait, you can only hear the sound in the morning.
Fortunately, he himself enjoyed it quite a lot and grinned broadly.
"Hehe, I just said that my vision is fine, this sword must be extraordinary!"
Shao Yu, who was following Shi Lan, turned to glance at him and said with a smile, "If it's not ordinary, it's not ordinary. It's useless to you. Don't you have weapons?"
"Uh..." Tianming lowered his head and glanced at the Fei Gong on his waist, and after struggling for a while, he said, "It's different, the Fei Gong...can't be considered a weapon, it's my...little helper! Yes, Xiao
Helper!"
"So Hero Tianming still needs a famous sword as his own sword."
When Tian Ming said the last sentence, he began to inexplicably indulge in self-indulgence. He was so intoxicated that he seemed to be deeply immersed in the fantasy of becoming a hero.
Shao Yu kept paying attention to him from the corner of his eyes. He couldn't help but put his hand on his forehead and shook his head. He was speechless about his character as a good brother.
After thinking for a moment, Shao Yu asked him back, "So you want to choose this broken sword as the sword of the 'Heavenly Ming Hero'? It seems a bit out of place, right?"
"Uh..." Tianming, who was walking with his head held high and giggling, instantly came back from his reverie, looked at the Shengxie Sword in his hand with confusion, and waved it twice subconsciously.
How should I put it... It's a little longer than Fatty Ding's kitchen knife, but not much, so it's not very handy to use.
Seeing that he was really hesitating, Shao Yu quickly advised him, "Stop thinking about it. There is no way this sword can be used. It's evil."
Hearing this, Tianming put aside his troubled thoughts for the time being. He lifted Shengxie up to face the moonlight and looked at it carefully. He scratched his head in confusion and asked Shaoyu, "You always say that this sword has evil energy, but why am I?"
Can’t you feel it?”
"When I looked at it... it felt a bit awkward at first glance. After watching it for a long time, it became okay, but it really didn't look very good..."
Shi Lan, who was at the front of the team, turned around and reminded Tian Ming, "That sword... really makes me feel uncomfortable. Tian Ming, you'd better think about it carefully."
"Shi Lan, you said the same thing..." Tian Ming muttered helplessly, and stopped worrying about it. He chose to pass the problem to others, "Forget it, I'll show it to my uncle tomorrow and see what he says.
”
"Well..." Shao Yu nodded, "That's fine, Mr. Gai will definitely take care of it."
"Speaking of which..." Putting aside the issue of Broken Sword for the time being, Tianming walked a few steps faster, caught up with the two friends, and said, "Old man, do you two have any impressions?"
"Never seen it."
"I don't know."
Shao Yu and Shi Lan shook their heads in response.
"Then why did he want to kill us?" Tian Ming spread his hands and said in confusion, "Have we ever caught him doing bad things, whether it was murder or silence... Could it be that he came here for the reward you offered, Shao Yu?"
