"General Shi" Han Baxian's nickname is very interesting, because he did serve as a general in his early years, and even reached the position of general of the Shilin Army guarding Yanxi. He was also considered a backbone of the Northern Yan Army.
Even at that time, Han Baxian was valued by a big boss in the Beiyan military, who planned to take him under the command of the Fifth Army of Zhenguo and make him a deputy general.
As a result, Han Baxian was obsessed with martial arts and disliked the influence on his practice in the army. Therefore, Han Baxian directly resigned from his position as general of the Stone Forest Army and concentrated on training, specifically going to the bitter cold places in the far north or the deserts of the far west.
If you polish your martial arts locally, your reputation will be greater than if you are in the military.
Rumor has it that Han Baxian has a strong and domineering personality, is warlike, and even has the attitude of a martial arts fanatic. Logically speaking, his personality should be very incompatible with Nie Dongliu, but now Han Baxian has accepted Nie Dongliu.
Dongliu became a disciple, which made Chu Xiu feel a little strange.
Nie Dongliu is from Beiyan, so he will naturally be arranged to go to Beiyan. It just so happens that Chu Xiu's location is not close to Dongqi, with Xichu on the left and Beiyan on the right.
When Nie Dongliu looked over to where he was, he naturally saw Chu Xiu standing there. This made Nie Dongliu's expression change slightly, but he still showed a smile.
Nie Dongliu's attitude towards Chu Xiu was very strange. At the beginning, Nie Dongliu actually did not regard Chu Xiu as his opponent. For him, Chu Xiu was just a small obstacle. He would kill him if he could, and if he couldn't, he would kill him.
, it’s not worth wasting too much energy on chasing Chu Xiu.
Therefore, after seizing the treasure at Luyang Mountain, Nie Dongliu did not even use Juyizhuang's own power to hunt down Chu Xiu. He only summoned some sect forces who were trying to please Juyizhuang to take action.
As a result, when Chu Xiu came out of Beiyan, he was like a dragon hidden in the sea. He quickly became famous in the world, and even became one of the top ten young heroes on the Dragon and Tiger List.
Regarding this situation, it is impossible to say that Nie Dongliu was not jealous at all.
Nie Dongliu would certainly feel uncomfortable when he saw that the stragglers who could be crushed to death by him at any time in the past had now become the chief executioner of the Guanzhong Punishment Hall, a young hero ranked higher than himself on the Dragon and Tiger Rankings.
But in that case, Nie Dongliu would only feel uncomfortable. He was not a fragile person like Lin Kaiyun from Sword King City, so he would be affected by such a trivial matter.
What really affected Nie Dongliu was not himself, but the rumors and rumors outside.
There are always some gossips in the world. Some people just don't like others. The more unlucky someone is, the happier they will be.
Even if Nie Dongliu had countless friends outside his home, and behaved very modestly, courteously, and with unparalleled loyalty, there would still be people who just wanted to see him suffer misfortune.
So as soon as the news from Chu Xiu reaches Beiyan, people in Beiyan will immediately say that he, Nie Dongliu, let Chu Xiu go, but now he is stepped on by others.
Anyway, that’s why it sounds so bad.
These rumors have affected Nie Dongliu's own reputation to a certain extent, and he cannot turn a blind eye.
There is only one solution, not to kill those people who gossip, but to defeat Chu Xiu!
There are too many of the former, let alone Juyi Village's current power, they can't kill them. Even if Juyizhuang has the strength of Daguangming Temple, they still can't kill them.
So the most reliable one is the latter.
As long as Chu Xiu is defeated or dies in his hands, everything will be resolved simply and directly.
In the past, Nie Dongliu liked to use tricks and looked down upon those simple-minded fools. In his opinion, even if such fools were powerful, they would be tricked to death sooner or later.
But since his defeat at the hands of that woman, Nie Dongliu suffered some blows.
In the face of absolute strength, his strategies cannot be used.
Nie Dongliu said that he was the young owner of Juyi Village. Someone said: You lost to a woman.
Nie Dongliu said that he was a hero on the Dragon and Tiger List, but someone said: You lost to a woman.
Nie Dongliu said that he had begun to practice hard in seclusion, but some people said: You lost to a woman.
Being defeated in public, there is no way to clean up this kind of thing, and there is no way to calculate and defend. It is simple and direct, and it also made Nie Dongliu know that sometimes absolute power is more important than strategy.
Later, Nie Dongliu met his current master Han Baxian, a martial arts tycoon famous in Beiyan. His strength and personality were extremely wild, and he also taught Nie Dongliu many things besides martial arts.
When your strength reaches a certain level, you can smash any conspiracy. Nie Dongliu used to put the cart before the horse, but now Nie Dongliu has really woken up. There is nothing wrong with relying on strategy and brains, but warriors should rely on them the most.
Yes, it's still my own fist.
With this in mind, Nie Dongliu walked towards Chu Xiu and said with a smile on his face: "Brother Chu, long time no see."
Everyone present turned their attention to Chu Xiu and Nie Dongliu. These two were both heroes on the Dragon and Tiger List, and everyone had heard of the grudges between them.
However, in the past few years, Chu Xiu has been in Guanzhong, and Nie Dongliu has also been in retreat in Beiyan, so the two sides have not had much chance to contact each other. At this time, it happened to be the World Sword Sect Conference, and these two were preparing to warm up before the conference.
?
Chu Xiu also looked at Nie Dongliu and said calmly: "Yes, I haven't seen you for a long time, but I feel like things have changed. Brother Nie, you have changed a lot."
At this time, Chu Xiu's attitude was calm, and there was no sign that he and Nie Dongliu had a big grudge. The two of them seemed to be two old friends reminiscing about the past.
Nie Dongliu looked directly at Chu Xiu, took a step forward, and the aura around him became extremely dignified.
In the past, Chu Xiu had fought against Nie Dongliu. Compared with the Nie Dongliu of the past, the aura of the current Nie Dongliu was completely different. One can imagine how much he has changed during this time.
"People change, don't they? But what has happened will not change. Brother Chu, it's time to end the grudge between you and me."
Chu Xiu raised his eyebrows and said, "I was the one who was chased in such a panic at the beginning, so this sentence seems to be appropriate for me to say.
The World Sword Sect Conference is a good place. With so many people watching, it’s enough for you and me to settle our old grudges. Of course, judging from your appearance, I’m afraid you can’t wait any longer and want to take action now? Okay, I’ll stay with you until the end too.
.”
Wisps of extremely suppressed aura burst out from Chu Xiu's body, which was no weaker than Nie Dongliu in front of him. Even the powerful murderous aura was stronger than Nie Dongliu's.
From the time he left Beiyan to now, Chu Xiu has been growing up in killing, while Nie Dongliu is practicing hard in seclusion and practicing with his master. Although his own realm has improved rapidly, he has not killed as many people as Chu Xiu.
.
Just when both sides thought that the two people would definitely fight, Nie Dongliu's aura suddenly released, like a spring breeze turning into rain, eliminating the murderous aura in Chu Xiu's body.
Nie Dongliu gave a long laugh and said: "Brother Chu, I'm joking, do you take it seriously? I don't care about the grudges and grudges for a long time. If there is a chance later, you and I will have a discussion.
Yes, but now that the World Sword Sect Conference is about to begin, wouldn’t it mean that you and I are not giving face to the five major sword sects by taking action here?”
Chu Xiu also suddenly sneered and said: "I realize that I was wrong before. You, Mr. Nie, have not changed at all."
After saying that, Chu Xiu sat down directly and ignored Nie Dongliu. Nie Dongliu did the same and walked directly to his seat. The two parties never said a word again.
Before, Chu Xiu thought that Nie Dongliu had become more straightforward and wanted to solve problems directly with his fists, but he didn't expect that he still had the same virtue.
It was Chu Xiu who was being hunted in the past, but Nie Dongliu said he didn't care about his grudges. Doesn't this make him look stingy?
Moreover, it was Nie Dongliu who was the first to show off his momentum and provoke. As a result, he was joking, but Chu Xiu turned out to be the one who took it seriously.
This man is full of lies, and he has plans and schemes down to his core. Every word must be taken advantage of in the slightest.
It's just that Chu Xiu didn't care about these things. He didn't have a good reputation in Dong Qi, or in the entire world. Chu Xiu didn't need that good reputation. Now he is being said to be stingy and careless.
, and Chu Xiu will not be hurt.
As for why Nie Dongliu didn't take action in the end, the reason is very simple, just because Nie Dongliu was not sure.
If Nie Dongliu was confident, he would not take the reputation of the five major sword sects seriously and would defeat Chu Xiu on the spot or even kill him directly to win back his reputation.
Anyway, he is the young master of Juyi Village, and everyone is already dead. Can the Five Great Sword Sects still let him be buried with him?
Nie Dongliu didn't take action just because he wasn't sure. Even with the momentum Chu Xiu had revealed just now, he wasn't sure he could defeat Chu Xiu on the spot, so he still needed to wait.
Wait until you have figured out Chu Xiu, or when Chu Xiu himself is exhausted, injured, and in poor condition before taking action.
Han Ba first taught him to use fists to solve problems, but Nie Dongliu never forgot his head and calculations.
Wouldn't it be safer to crush and defeat the opponent with absolute certainty?
Xie Xiaolou sat next to Chu Xiu and asked in a low voice: "Are you ready to take action later?"
Chu Xiu's eyes showed a cold light and said: "Even if I am not ready to take action, the young village owner will not give up. I want revenge, he wants reputation, and we will have a battle."
Xie Xiaolou nodded and said: "Be careful, I have never been in contact with Nie Dongliu, but my master has evaluated his father Nie Renlong.
Although Nie Renlong's own strength is not weak, it is not too strong either, but what really scares people about Nie Renlong is his methods.
Most of the people and the six gangs have a rough background, and the one who can reach the end and has the greatest potential, apart from our Xichu Tianxia Alliance, is Beiyan Juyizhuang."
