People watched him drift away, all angry and ashamed, with gloomy faces about to drip, but there was nothing they could do, knowing that it would be useless no matter how many people went up.
"Alas... Nangong Si Dao, his reputation is indeed well-deserved!" Someone let out a long sigh, shook his head, turned around and sat down to drink dejectedly.
People sat down one after another and went back to their seats to drink. Everyone drank hard and took it out on themselves, trying to get themselves drunk so as to forget the shame of today.
People were talking and talking while drinking.
"This Nangong Si Dao is not a good person. Guess whether the Imperial Master can defeat him?" Someone asked his companions in a low voice.
"In the past, I didn't believe that Nangong Sidao could beat the national master at all, but now, after seeing Nangong Sidao's true ability, I can't make up my mind!" His companion shook his head, his face heavy.
National Master Zhao Zhiyuan is their backbone. Although he has very little contact with people in the martial arts world and does not look down on martial arts heroes, the existence of Zhao Zhiyuan has held up the sky so that they do not have to worry about Nangong Sidao. Dayan has Nangong Sidao, and we, Great Zhao, have a national master!
If Zhao Zhiyuan loses, it will be a fatal blow to the confidence of the entire Zhao Wu and even the hundreds of people in the Zhao Dynasty.
When I faced Dayan's army again and returned to the army, my original sense of superiority no longer existed. Once a battle broke out, my morale was low, and I was afraid that I would no longer be able to move freely as before.
However, there are only a few people who have thought of this step. Most of them are still angry about being humiliated by Nangong Sidao, and they angrily yell and scold, wanting to take revenge.
The fat old man who spoke earlier slammed the table and shouted: "Okay, everyone, there is no need to make any noise. Nangong Sidao is powerful, but he is far from the national master. Everyone just keep your eyes open and wait for the good show!"
"Mr. Mo, is it true that Nangong Sidao can't defeat the Imperial Master?" someone asked loudly.
The fat old man had a gloomy face: "If he could beat the Imperial Master, he would have come here long ago, why wait until now?!"
"Maybe he couldn't beat him before, but now he is sure, so he came here..."
"Put it back!" the fat old man yelled, his eyes widening: "He wants to defeat the Imperial Master with his own abilities. What a big joke!"
"Mr. Mo has seen the skills of the national master?" someone asked, shaking his head and saying: "We only know that the national master has great supernatural powers and is a living god, but we have never seen how powerful the national master is. This Nangong Sidao is almost a monster. I'm afraid that the Imperial Master will make a mistake..."
"Put it back, put it back!" The fat old man shouted angrily with a red face: "I have seen the skills of the imperial master. Don't worry, no matter how powerful Nangong Sidao is, he is still an ant. The imperial master can kill him with just one finger. he!"
"In this way..." People were dubious.
As the saying goes, seeing is believing and hearing is false. Although the national master has great supernatural powers and is a man among gods, they have never seen it with their own eyes. And they have personally experienced how powerful Nangong Sidao is, and they really can't think of anyone who can beat him.
"You guys are too ignorant. You will know later!" The fat old man sneered and shook his head.
Li Muchan directly found someone to buy a large house in the west of the city. Although this is the capital of Xi Zhao, it is not easy to live in. But what he lacks most now is money, so naturally he doesn't care about this.
This large house has three entrances, the front hall, the backyard, and the back garden. The back garden has winding paths and beautiful scenery, as if it is located in Dayan.
The servants in the house were all kept. The owner of this yard was a wealthy businessman. This was just his house and he did not live here. Li Muchan was generous and naturally let it go.
Li Muchan intuitively felt that this trip to Xi Zhao would not be that simple. He thought that meeting Zhao Zhiyuan would not be easy. It could not be solved in a short time. He was not used to living in an inn all the time. It would be better to buy this house to stay and feel more at ease.
This house is not far from the Forbidden Palace. Li Muchan can see the situation outside the Forbidden Palace with the eyes of the void, but it is a pity that the real core is always blocked by treasures, so he cannot see clearly.
There is no lake in the back garden, only a sea of flowers, some rockeries and two bamboo forests. It is uniquely designed, quiet and pleasant.
Li Muchan was sitting on a rockery, closing his eyes slightly and enjoying the pleasant breeze. The evening breeze was so gentle that it brushed his face like a woman's caress.
Li Muchan opened the Eye of the Void and saw the entire capital city. While admiring the various customs, he stared at the palace, wanting to see when Hu Sicheng would come out.
Logically speaking, even though she is a woman, she has to come out and cannot stay in the forbidden palace. But unexpectedly, she never appeared, as if she was living in it.
Li Muchan's mind suddenly thought of a possibility. Could it be that Hu Sicheng was Jin Zhi Yuyou? When he woke up, it was already late at night, and a bright moon hung flawlessly on the sky, exuding a soft clear light.
Everything around him was covered with a layer of white gauze, it was quiet and gentle, and extremely peaceful. Li Muchan's heart was also peaceful, and he sighed leisurely, really not wanting to break this tranquility.
But the situation is pressing, a master breaks into the house, and he is unable to enjoy this peaceful night.
He sat motionless on the rockery, bathed in the soft moonlight, standing like a statue, seemingly unaware of the four people approaching him.
These four people came slowly from four directions, wearing night clothes. The dark clothes blended into the night, with only a pair of eyes exposed from all over their bodies.
Although Li Muchan had his eyes closed, he opened his eyes of the void and looked at the four people carefully. They were all thin and of medium build. They were most ordinary and hardly noticeable.
Moreover, the essence of their eyes is restrained and dull. People can tell at a glance that they are incapable of recovery and do not have the health of ordinary people, let alone that they have advanced cultivation.
Li Muchan secretly admired that these four people were really suitable to be assassins. Even if he got close, he would not notice anything strange about them and would think they were ordinary people.
Their desire to cultivate is strange, and their cultivation is extremely deep, but they just don't show it. This has gone beyond the level of returning to basics and returning to true nature.
When martial arts masters practice to a certain extent, they often return to basics and return to their true nature. The essence is introverted. This is because they have truly mastered the energy and spirit of the surrounding body, so they can be introverted and not exaggerate.
As far as the human body is concerned, if you want to live a long life, it is best to be restrained and stingy with energy and energy.
Human energy and spirit are the most precious, just like lamp oil. Every little bit is used up. If there is no magic, adding oil to it is really out of reach, as difficult as reaching the sky.
There are two ways to prolong life, one is to add fuel to it, the other is to use it sparingly and try to use it for as long as possible. Adding fuel to it is the level of cultivating the Tao. It is out of reach for ordinary people. It is just a daydream. For martial arts masters The same is true, there is no need to add oil at all, it is best to use it sparingly. By restraining your energy and energy, you can naturally extend your life by using the oil for two days.
The cultivation of these four people was so advanced that they had indeed reached the level of returning to basics and returning to true nature. But for Li Muchan, the masters of returning to basics and returning to true nature were invisible to him at a glance and there was nothing to hide from them.
And these four masters were extremely impressive until they got closer. Li Muchan thought about it, and among the many masters he met, these four were ranked high, even if they were not as good as Leng Wushuang, they were about the same.
At this time, they were wearing such clothes and approaching quietly. Naturally, they were not malicious. He pretended not to know and wanted to see what they were going to do.
The four of them seemed to be sneaking closer with the night wind, and when they reached two feet away from Li Muchan, they stopped, motionless, like a rockery, and even their eyes were restrained, their eyelids were slightly lowered, covering their eyes from falling on Li Muchan.
Li Muchan admired, it seemed that they were indeed proficient in assassination techniques and knew the flaws in their gaze.
For a quarter of an hour, they remained motionless, blending into the night like wooden piles, making people forget and ignore their existence.
Suddenly, their eyes flickered, they looked at each other quickly, then their figures flashed, and suddenly disappeared on the spot, as if phantoms had disappeared.
The next moment they appeared on the rockery and surrounded Li Muchan. Their right palms lightly slapped Li Muchan's front, back, left, and right. Each of them took a position, and the palm force formed a sealed box to envelope Li Muchan.
Li Muchan suddenly opened his eyes and smiled slightly. The surrounding area suddenly became bright, like daylight, illuminating the eyes of the four people.
They felt their eyes light up as if daylight suddenly appeared, and then invisible power exploded back. The tyrannical power surged in, and their bodies felt like they were hit by a running horse.
The four of them suddenly made a muffled "bang" sound and flew backwards like stones.
They scattered and divided into four directions. Two fell into the bamboo forest, one hit the wall and the other hit another rockery.
Li Muchan shook his head and said warmly: "You are still far behind. I don't want to commit more crimes, so I'd better leave quickly!"
After saying that, he closed his eyes and became still again, completely integrated with the rockery he was sitting on, without any life at all, and seemed to turn into stone.
The four of them felt their blood rushing, but their whole bodies were sore and weak. It was difficult to squeeze out any strength, and it was even more impossible to take action.
They tried their best to mobilize their internal energy, trying to restore the body, but the internal energy was frozen and motionless, as if they no longer recognized their masters, and just stayed in the meridians of the body. No matter how much they were driven, they did not move, as if
The donkey stopped walking.
After a while, they recovered a little internal strength, and without caring about anything else, they turned out of the back garden and disappeared into the night.
Li Muchan ignored them and let them leave. He raised the corner of his mouth slightly and shook his head. These four people were indeed excellent assassins. They might be useful to others, but after all, they were still on a lower level. In front of him, they were no better than naughty children.
different.
He thought for a while, these four people were not ordinary martial arts masters, they were top assassination masters. Even though they were helpless like children in front of him, they were a fatal threat when they encountered other people.
Such top assassination masters are extremely rare and do not know how to travel in the martial arts world. They often belong to some big forces. Which force do they belong to?
He watched with the eyes of the void and followed these four people. They floated out of the city, then hid in the woods, then got into the mountains and headed towards the mountains.
Li Muchan frowned, he didn't expect these four people to be so cunning, as if they knew he would follow them secretly, they went straight into the mountain without raising their heads.
Although they lost their relics, Li Muchan ignored them and disappeared. For him now, there are only a few that are truly worthy of attention. Although these four top assassins are strong, they are not worthy of his concern.
The night was getting darker and darker, and the originally bright moon was suddenly covered by a dark cloud. The surroundings were so dark that I couldn't see my fingers, and the air was really dyed with thick ink.
"Haha, interesting!" Li Muchan suddenly smiled, and two figures suddenly came to him, and a blue light flashed and enveloped him.
Before Li Muchan's laughter ended, his clothes bulged violently, and then the blue light returned, shooting back in the direction it came from, "Hi!" A silver light broke through the blue light, and suddenly arrived in front of Li Muchan.
Li Muchan flicked his fingers, "Ding..." With a crisp sound, a petite body flew out together with a short sword.
Li Muchan could tell that this was a woman, and she was also a young girl.
His facial features were far more sensitive than ordinary people, and he could smell the scent of this woman from a distance of two feet. It was the unique body fragrance of a young girl, which was light and pleasant.
Although he came to assassinate him, Li Muchan didn't have the slightest intention to kill him. He felt that this young girl, who was as delicate as a flower, did not deserve to die.
The young girl in black rolled and flew backwards, still holding the dagger tightly in her hand. The strength on the sword was strange and incomparable. It vibrated wave after wave, as if it was alive. She wanted to break free from her hand and fly away. .
She clutched it tightly with all her strength. Even though her left arm lost all feeling, she still clutched the hilt of the sword tightly with willpower to prevent it from falling away.
"Bang" the young girl in black flew backwards and hit a bamboo. The bamboo was crushed and lost its strength in the process of falling, and then rebounded upwards, causing the young girl to bounce back again.
She used this strength to shoot back towards Li Muchan again. The dagger was handed into her right hand, and the body and sword merged into a rainbow and shot towards Li Muchan.
The energy, energy, and spirit of this sword are in a wonderful state, and its speed is as fast as lightning. Not only is the body and the sword integrated, but the energy, energy, and spirit are also integrated into the sword. The whole person turns into a sword intention that penetrates directly.
If it were an ordinary person, he would be directly frightened by the sword's intention, and would not move, obediently waiting to be pierced by the sword. The power of this sword is really astonishing.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows in surprise. He didn't expect that such a delicate and delicate woman could unleash such strong sword intent. This was beyond martial arts and reached the realm of martial arts.
Although it looks extremely reluctant, and it is not the right path, it is not due to martial arts cultivation, but a special heart, but such power is indeed amazing, and it is a destructive power for martial arts masters.
He waited quietly for the dagger to approach. When he was close, he slowly stretched out his right palm and struck out.
"Ding……"
There was a crisp sound, and the dagger swung away. The young girl in black staggered and stood in front of Li Muchan. Her figure was swaying, as if she was fighting and struggling with invisible forces.
Li Muchan said with a smile: "Girl and I are strangers, why do you want to kill me?"
"Humph!" The young girl in black glared at him with her narrow eyes, and twisted her body back in an attempt to break free from the invisible restraints, but she may have failed.
Li Muchan looked her over. His face was covered with a black scarf, only his eyes were exposed, but these narrow eyes had the ability to capture the soul.
Li Muchan touched his chin, shook his head and said: "I am a beautiful lady, but you are a thief! ... So, how about you tell me who ordered you to come here?"
"Dream!" The young girl in black sneered.
Li Muchan shook his head and said with a smile: "Although I love you, those who want to kill me are not among them!"
"If you come to our great Zhao to seek death, we will help you!" The young girl in black sneered.
Although she spoke coldly, her voice was sweet and sweet.
Li Muchan raised his eyebrows, nodded slowly and said, "I guess it's Miss Hu, right?"
Seeing the surprised look of the young girl in black, Li Muchan laughed: "This Miss Hu has a good background. What is her identity?"
"Huh!" The young girl in black turned her head and didn't look at him.
However, this implicitly acknowledged that Li Muchan's words were indeed instigated by Hu Sicheng.
Li Muchan thought for a while and said with a smile: "Which princess of Zhao is it?"
The young girl in black couldn't help turning her head to look at him again. Li Muchan laughed. This young girl in black had a strange sword but a pure heart.
But it's no wonder that if you want to master such a strange sword, the prerequisite is to have a simple mind, be focused, and have a heart that is not stained by the world, with no distracting thoughts, and only the sword in your heart.
Li Muchan's mind raced, and he quickly thought that the so-called sword will can also be divided into innate and acquired. The sword will that he has now condensed can be called innate sword will. It is the result of his cultivation beyond the barriers of martial arts, reaching the level of martial arts, and practicing Qi to transform into a god.
And there is another type of sword intention, which is the one you see in front of you. It should be regarded as acquired sword intention. It directly transcends the level of Qi training, directly trains the mind, completely integrates the mind and the sword, and gives up the sword. After a long time, It will also condense into a kind of sword intent.
For him, the acquired sword intention is not a threat, but for martial arts masters, such acquired sword intention is extremely terrifying and difficult to match.
However, it is not something that ordinary people can endure if they want to cultivate the sword spirit like this. It is like cultivating the Tao, having to cut off all emotions and desire, and sacrifice oneself for the sake of the sword. The hardship involved is beyond imagination.
People who have such a heart to practice self-cultivation either have the guidance of a master and have practiced self-cultivation since childhood, or they have strong motivation support, such as blood feud, which can burn themselves back in exchange for strength.
Li Muchan smiled and said: "It seems that you are really a princess. Thanks to her, you are a master of the palace?"
"Humph!" The young girl in black turned her head again.
Li Muchan thought for a while and said with a smile: "Then you are Zhao Guoshi's disciple?"
The young girl in black stared over again, her narrow eyes widening.
Li Muchan knew that he had guessed correctly, and suddenly laughed loudly and said: "Your Highness, why bother hiding? Since you are here, please show up!"
