Lou Xiao stared blankly at Miao Yunyong, whose clear eyes were filled with tranquility and a calm look, as if the peerless sword in his hand was nothing more than a wicker branch.
The edge of Miao Yunyong's sword was tilted slightly, and the evil force trembled. A sharp and violent roar like an awl rose into the sky again. The Wudang disciples and Escort masters around him were shocked, and the chaotic battle situation returned to calm in an instant.
Miao Yunyong looked at Lou Xiao calmly and said in a calm tone: "I don't want to kill innocent people indiscriminately, so please just retreat, Mr. Lou."
Lou Xiao took two steps back in shock. He didn't say anything, but in fact he had lost his courage. The terrifying aura like a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood just now almost made him think that he would definitely die on the spot today.
This Miao Yunyong obviously had an upright style, and his righteousness almost made people bow down, but why was his swordsmanship and martial arts so evil and terrifying? For a moment, Lou Xiao couldn't even tell whether it was the sword or the person who was the most evil.
After being stunned, what filled Lou Xiao's heart was the joy of surviving the catastrophe, and the humiliation of his own idea of living a mediocre life.
He was older than Miao Yunyong and had been in the world for many years. He had a high self-esteem and never looked down on the so-called masters of these famous sects. In his eyes, these people were just incompetent people who had inherited the glory of their ancestors.
Lou Xiao was afraid of the Wudang sect's heritage and the power hidden behind it, not the Wudang Seven Masters of the Wudang sect. Therefore, when Chen came to visit him, he agreed to the other party's request without much thought.
He originally thought that without Qi Yunzi and Shang Yangzi, the Wudang Sect would be like a tiger without claws and teeth. It could maintain its prestige from a distance, but if he wanted to show off his ferocity, even if he wanted to do so, he would be powerless.
But in today's battle, he used his signature skills. Not only was he unable to perform any martial arts, but after the first battle, he couldn't even figure out Miao Yunyong's martial arts skills.
That sudden appearance of domineering swordsmanship shattered all of Lou Xiao's pride. For a moment, he felt a little lazy and discouraged.
"You're not going to kill me?" Lou Xiao's hand holding the concealed weapon slowly lowered, somewhat self-deprecatingly.
Miao Yunyong didn't speak any more. He sheathed his sword directly, called the Wudang disciples to gather, and then slowly walked away under the fearful eyes of the masters of the escort agency.
Song Yangui approached Miao Yunyong with a shocked expression, and asked: "Brother, headmaster, you——"
"Junior brother, I have understood the meaning of this sword left by my uncle."
Miao Yunyong emotionally wrapped the Heavenly Fierce Sword in cloth and put it on his back again. At the same time, he also warned Song Yangui again with the words of his predecessors: "Remember, the Tai Chi Qing Ling Sword Technique should not be used unless absolutely necessary."
"Senior brother, did you just...?" Song Yangui's expression was a little complicated.
"I am no longer in this group." Miao Yunyong smiled and said nothing more, leaving Song Yangui alone in place, his expression becoming increasingly silent.
In the darkness not far away, Qianhu Yan Feng and Zeng Hong looked at each other, the atmosphere was a bit solemn, and then Zeng Hong spoke first and asked: "Is this what you expected?"
Yan Feng did not answer immediately. He pondered for a moment and then said: "Miao Yunyong's ability to have such a good fortune is indeed beyond my expectation. I couldn't see through his sword just now, and I wasn't sure I could take it. Brother Zeng
how?"
Zeng Hong shook his head: "I'm not as good as him."
Then he sighed: "Since Miao Yunyong has reached a higher level, it seems that the disaster in Wudang will be solved soon. Brother Yan, our trip will be in vain."
"Not necessarily." Yan Feng didn't think so. There was still a bit of expectation and ease in his expression. His eyes fell on the second of the Wudang Seven Sons and gradually became deeper.
...
On the other side, Lou Xiao was walking back on his way back with a group of listless bodyguards. He had completely lost the battle just now. Wudang deliberately walked to a quiet place to lure them out, and then defeated them head-on.
The defeat of the bodyguard was expected. How could a ragtag group of people be the opponent of Wudang disciples? However, his own defeat gave Lou Xiao a feeling of dejected defeat.
For a moment, he even had the idea of retiring from the world. When he was in a state of confusion, he suddenly saw a bright light blocking the road ahead, and Lou Xiao slowly stopped.
"who?"
Lou Xiao squinted his eyes, a pair of hook-like gazes on his fat face went straight through the lights in front of him, and saw the middle-aged man sitting on the bicycle frame leisurely sipping tea.
"It turns out to be Butler Chen, I'm sorry." After seeing the person clearly, Lou Xiao put the plum blossom dart away with a smile.
All the escorts behind him also raised their hands and saluted. Butler Chen seemed to be in poor health. He always covered his mouth and nose with a silk scarf and coughed from time to time.
"Steward Chen came here late at night, but what advice do you have?" Lou Xiao asked kindly.
"Ahem," Butler Chen coughed twice out of habit, and then said: "It seems to be quite lively tonight. Mr. Lou was in high spirits when he took people out, but why did he come back like this...
.Where do you want to go, sir?”
Lou Xiao took a deep look at Steward Chen and said with a solemn expression: "The Wudang master is well-deserved. Lou Xiao is incompetent and failed to fulfill the agreement with Steward Chen. The gift money previously sent by Chen will definitely be returned in full the next day."
"That's ten thousand taels of silver, sir, are you really willing to part with it?"
Butler Chen said, ignoring the escorts with different expressions, he patted his forehead again as if he was annoyed: "That's right, I almost forgot that sir also left a sum of money in Tianle Bank, how much is it?"
Coming? Oh, twenty-seven thousand eight hundred and forty taels."
Lou Xiao's expression changed little by little, and the businessman-like smile turned into as cold as the cold wind: "Steward Chen, are you checking my background?"
Butler Chen didn't seem to hear it and continued: "Sir, you still have more than 20,000 yuan in hand, so you don't have to worry about whether this business can be done. It's just that, of the more than 20,000 yuan, 7,000 taels were sold by Mr.
My best friend got another nine thousand taels, and they are my own brothers..."
"Steward Chen!"
Lou Xiao's tone was much harsher. He stared at the other party, and after a long while he said coldly: "I know that Chen's hands and eyes are very capable, but since Mr. Chen found out the source of the money, he naturally also knows this.
Tricks are of no use to me."
Butler Chen finally closed his mouth, but he had no intention of stopping the topic. He coughed twice, then looked at Lou Xiao with a gloomy expression with interest, and suddenly said: "It seems that the word money is not a problem."
Sir, where is the child?"
Lou Xiao was stunned for a moment, and heard Butler Chen say rather sadly: "That is such a poor woman. She was the number one in the building, but she accidentally got pregnant with her husband's child. She suffered so much torture that she finally escaped.
, when everything was at the end of the rope, I met the lover I once had a happy night with again..."
Looking at Lou Xiao, whose face changed drastically, Butler Chen's mouth curved with mockery, and his eyes were full of pity: "Sir, he took pity on that woman and raised her in a private house outside Yuzhou City. She is also worthy of his love and care.
You gave birth to a child, your only son."
"Stop talking!" Lou Xiao yelled, but compared to his previous impatience and anger, his tone now contained a bit of fear and regret.
