The third day of the twelfth lunar month is the twelfth lunar month of winter.
The cold wind was biting, and a few remaining leaves were spinning and falling in the wind.
Lu Chen stood on the edge of the deserted back mountain cliff, stretched out his hand to gently pinch a dead leaf, looked at the vicissitudes of life, and whispered to himself: "Four years have passed in the blink of an eye, time flies!"
Unknowingly, the time limit for the bet with Li Mengjun is one step closer. Looking back on the high-spirited days until now, the wind is light and the clouds are calm, and the colon turns over, and the sadness in my heart is endless and unclear.
Lu Chen has not dared to relax in the past few years. He has been working hard, working hard, and practicing very hard in order to forget the scars in his heart and constantly reflect on his shortcomings.
He pulled out the soft sword and flicked it with his fingers. The blade trembled slightly and made a crisp trembling sound, which was very pleasant to the ears.
Lu Chen benefited a lot from the battle in Longyanggang. Not only did he learn all the moves in the Ruyi Sword Code, but he also created his own 'Thunder' sword. His talent was amazing and decisive, no less than that of his ancestor Lu Xuanfeng!
Watching the thunder and lightning pierce the sky, it is a blessing to the soul. This sword contains the insights accumulated by Lu Chen for several years of hard training. Its power is comparable to the acquired peak full blow, and can even threaten the innate strong. As he continues
Enlightenment, self-creation and improvement, slowly, a new way of swordsmanship emerged that was unique to him.
"I have fully understood the first six moves of Shadow Dance Phantom Sword, but what is the meaning of the sword in this seventh move?" Lu Chen was puzzled.
People have joys and sorrows, and the moon waxes and wanes!
"Could it be that this move has something to do with the moon?" Lu Chen looked up at the starry sky. The clouds were filled with mist, the stars were dim, and the silver moon was nowhere to be seen.
"It's a pity that it's foggy and I can't see the moonlight. Naturally, I can't understand the secrets. It seems I can only practice another day!" Lu Chen sighed softly and had to turn around and go down the mountain.
Early the next morning, Lu Chen sat cross-legged on the edge of the cliff practicing the 'Golden Toad Breathing Technique', with his mouth and nose slightly open, his five hearts pointing to the sky, his mind calm in a wonderful 'selfless state', and the aura of heaven and earth seemed to wrap around him like a whirlpool.
Touching him, washing his muscles and acupuncture points with a strange rhythm.
Over a long period of time, his eight extraordinary meridians, twelve main meridians, and some small branches were gradually opened up, forming a circulation channel that penetrated everywhere in the body, including the face, the back of the hands, and the insteps of some places that were difficult for internal energy to penetrate.
This will enable him to transform his inner energy and explode his inner energy more quickly in the future.
However, at this time, the arrival of a young man with a stern look suddenly broke the previous tranquility of Qinglongyuan.
"Who is Lu Chen, come out!" The stern young man came to Qinglong Courtyard and roared, which echoed in all directions.
The stern young man's voice was very loud, obviously he did it on purpose. It spread throughout the Qinglong Academy and immediately attracted the attention of countless Sword Sect disciples.
He was wearing a purple robe, a silver-white high crown on his head, and he looked like a jade tree facing the wind. He was carrying an exquisite golden-white sword, which attracted the scorching eyes of many female disciples. The only thing that made people feel uncomfortable was
It's his pair of blue eyes with a sinister aura.
"Who is this? You've been shouting all morning!"
"If you are looking for Senior Brother Lu Chen, go and have a look!"
"Hey, isn't this Senior Brother Su Xingbai?"
As expected, this man with a sinister expression
The young man is Su Xingbai. Lu Chen has only been in Jianzong for less than three months and he has never met him. Now he is looking for Lu Chen by name. It seems that he is very angry. Something unpleasant must have happened between the two parties, which has attracted countless people.
Making guesses.
"What do you want from me?" A cheerful voice sounded, and then Lu Chen's figure slowly walked out of the crowd.
Su Xingbai took a look at Lu Chen and saw that he was majestic, handsome and handsome. His whole person exuded a faint sense of oppression, and the contempt he felt when he first came quietly faded away.
"I heard that you recently went down the mountain with Senior Sister for training and saved her from danger several times. I came here to thank you!" Su Xingbai said lightly. The implication was that he was related to Murong Ziyun.
Very shallow.
Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then joked: "How can you be grateful to me? I don't know what your relationship is with Senior Sister!"
"Senior sister and I are childhood sweethearts. We have grown up together since childhood and have a deep relationship. You saved her and you saved me. Of course I have to be grateful to you!" Su Xingbai said in a cold voice with his hands behind his back.
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Then how should you thank me?"
"If you want a panacea or a secret book on inner strength, just ask for it. As long as I can achieve it, I will do my best!" Su Xingbai said in a arrogant tone.
"My senior sister has told me what you said a long time ago!" Lu Chen said.
Su Xingbai squinted his eyes and asked, "Then how did you reply?"
"I want Senior Sister to be willing to give her life to me!" Lu Chen teased with a smile while holding his sword in both hands.
Su Xingbai's expression instantly turned gloomy: "Boy, don't talk nonsense. Believe it or not, I will kill you! I heard that Zhang Shaoling came back and told me that you were plotting evil against Senior Sister. It turns out that this is really happening. It seems that you are very scheming.
Senior sister has been depressed and distraught since she came back these days. You must have done something sorry for her! I would like to advise you, it’s best to give up on this idea. How could senior sister have such a respected position, how could she like a lowly person like you?
."
Su Xingbai's admiration for Murong Ziyun was already Sima Zhao's heart in the entire sect, and everyone knew it. After all, the two grew up together, and it goes without saying that they have a deep relationship. The key is that Su Xingbai's talent and strength look at the entire Sword Sect.
He is definitely a top-notch pride of heaven and is indeed worthy of Murong Ziyun, the daughter of the sect leader. He has long regarded her as his own private property and will never tolerate others getting involved.
Of course, the reason why Su Xingbai worked so hard in the Sword Sect and was always ranked first in the Heavenly Sword Ranking was because he wanted to be worthy of Murong Ziyun.
It's a pity that Luo Hua is ruthless on purpose. Although Su Xingbai showed extremely high talent and strength in the Sword Sect in recent years, with the purpose of gaining the appreciation of the sect master, he could not win the favor of Murong Ziyun.
But Su Xingbai never gave up the idea of pursuing the senior sister. Not only did he have tenacity in martial arts, he was also very perseverant in pursuing women. In his whole life, he only believed that the senior sister would be his wife in the future and never showed a smile to other female disciples.
.But when the senior sister showed him a smile, he could be excited for several days.
But when he saw the eldest sister being depressed and distracted, he would feel an inexplicable irritability in his heart, and he would think about it all day long, whether the eldest sister had someone else in his heart, or had suffered some grievances outside. For him, the eldest sister was
is more important than his achievements in martial arts.
It is very painful to figure out a woman's thoughts, let alone a woman of noble status. Su
Xingbai has achieved very high achievements in martial arts, but he is far inferior to other disciples in pursuing women. He is always afraid that others will snatch the senior sister away, so every time he hears a man appearing next to the senior sister, he feels in his heart
You will feel a sense of vigilance for no apparent reason.
It was a normal thing for Senior Sister and Lu Chen to go out to practice together before. Su Xingbai was out training at that time and heard about it. He didn't take it seriously. Even if he was worried about Senior Sister, he couldn't be around Senior Sister every day.
Turn around! No matter how narrow-minded Su Xingbai is, he can't be this narrow-minded, so he never took it to heart. However, after Zhang Shaoling came back, rumors spread everywhere that the senior sister and Lu Chen disappeared for nearly half a month in order to track Hanba. After returning,
, their words and deeds were intimate, and their actions were ambiguous, which made Su Xingbai, who loved the senior sister wholeheartedly, suddenly become angry, so this scene happened.
"Zhang Shaoling?" Lu Chen frowned and thought to himself: "It turns out that this guy is spreading rumors, but he will fan the flames and add fuel to the fire. It was originally a groundless thing, but he actually said it in a convincing way. This guy is really good at gossiping.
How awesome, are you using Su Xingbai to deal with me in order to avenge you for not saving me that day?" That night, when Zhang Shaoling was besieged by Han Ban, Lu Chen did not help him, fearing that he would be resented by Zhang Shaoling at that time.
So as soon as I came back, I started talking nonsense.
Having been in contact with Zhang Shaoling, Lu Chen naturally knew this man's virtues. Although the Sword Sect has many talented disciples, there are also many people with various evil personalities in it.
"I'm humble, how can you be noble? Besides, what does senior sister's depression have to do with me, and what does it have to do with you?" Lu Chen sneered, Su Xingbai's overbearing attitude made him very unhappy.
Although you are the proud son of Heaven in the Sword Sect, looking at the entire Jiuzhou Continent, you are only at the bottom, and you have no right to be proud in front of me.
"Hmph, if Senior Sister is unhappy, it means that I am unhappy. Her business is my business. If I offend her, what do you think I should do?" Su Xingbai coldly snorted, raised his sword eyebrows upward, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent.
Lu Chen said in a deep voice: "Su Xingbai, are you too self-righteous?"
As soon as these words came out, the surrounding disciples were in an uproar. Lu Chen actually dared to contradict Su Xingbai, how brave he was. This Su Xingbai was the peerless genius who ranked first in the Heavenly Sword Ranking. Among the younger generation, he was undoubtedly the most dazzling in the Sword Sect.
that kind of person.
And Lu Chen is just a newcomer who has arrived less than three months ago. Although he has made a mark in the ranking competition, it is not enough to give him the capital to talk wildly. Being able to contradict Su Xingbai in front of everyone, this kind of demeanor makes many Qinglongyuan disciples
I secretly marveled that he was indeed the leader of Qinglongyuan. With some talent, he could speak so arrogantly.
When Su Xingbai heard this, he was stunned and immediately shouted: "Lu Chen, you, an elite disciple, dare to contradict me. How brave are you? What is your identity? You speak to me in this tone. I will teach you a lesson today."
, let you know what the gap is and what dignity and inferiority are!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Xingbai kicked off the ground with his toes, jumped up into the air, and rushed towards Lu Chen. His right hand swam rapidly in the air like a snake, and a strong inner energy condensed in his palm. There was a vague sound of cracking the air, and immediately there was a burst of energy.
The palm slapped Lu Chen hard from the air, and then a low shout sounded: "Wandering Dragon Palm!"
Lu Chen's expression was solemn. He stepped on the ground with the sole of his foot, and his whole body flew back lightly, like a flying leaf, as light and as if it was nothing.
With a loud bang, the ground where Lu Chen was originally exploded instantly, forming a large pit, and the soil flew in all directions, flying all over the sky.
