The grotto is not far from the Sword Sect. Soon, eight people arrived outside the grotto. Xi Wen said loudly: "Master, my disciple Xi Wen wants to see you. There is news about the ninth junior brother." His voice was full of vitality.
Go down and enter the deep cave.
After a while, an echo came from the grotto, "Well. I just heard the Tianxuan bell. Have you found Owen's disciples? You all come in." It was the clear voice of the Tiangang Sword Master.
"Yes, master." Xi Wen agreed, leading Ah-Dai and several of his junior brothers into the grotto.
Duan looked around. This grotto was completely natural, without any trace of artificiality. The grotto was very deep. After walking for a hundred meters and turning a corner, it suddenly became clear. This is not a very big cave.
There was a person sitting cross-legged on a big rock in the center of the cave. Because the light was very dark, Dumb couldn't see the person's face clearly.
The seven Xi Wen people knelt down at the same time and said respectfully: "Meet the master."
Dumb was stunned for a moment, and then he knelt down on the ground under Xi Wen's pull, and stammered: "Ah, Dumb pays homage to you, the Sword Master of Tiangang."
"You all get up. Xi Wen, stand aside." There was a hint of excitement in the originally calm voice of Tiangang Sword Master.
Xi Wen and others agreed and stepped back to both sides. Ah-Dai was the last one to stand up. Just as he stood up, two cold bolts of electricity suddenly hit him in front of him. He was startled and couldn't help but take a step back. The cold electricity was caused by
The words came from the opened eyes of Tiangang Sword Master. They were a pair of clear eyes. Although they did not contain any emotion, they were full of vitality. His whole body seemed to be blocked, and he could not move at all.
The vitality in the body is constantly circulating, and the surging energy seems to be in an unusual state of excitement.
"Are you Owen's disciple Dumb?"
Ah-Dai was almost out of breath under the intimidating momentum of Tiangang Sword Master, "Yes, yes, Uncle Owen taught me martial arts."
Tiangang Sword Master sighed softly, closed his eyes, and the pressure on Dumb disappeared immediately. "Tell me how you met Owen, everything you got together with, and even how he died later."
Dumb couldn't think of any resistance at all, so he answered honestly: "I was practicing magic with Mr. Coris in the psychedelic forest. During that time, Mr. Coris went out to look for things. Ah! By the way, Mr. Coris
He was a great alchemist. After the teacher left, one day, I suddenly found that the magic circle arranged by Teacher Corris had been touched. I thought the teacher was back, so I ran out to meet him, but who knew, I met a group of
The men in black besieged a man in white. The man in white was Uncle Owen. The men in black wanted to kill Uncle Owen, but they were no match. I heard them say that Uncle Owen had been poisoned by the unique holy water."
Hearing this, the seven Xi Wen people exclaimed at the same time. The name of Wuer Holy Water is known to everyone on the mainland, and its unparalleled poison is extremely feared by everyone.
Tiangang Sword Master didn't seem to care, "Go on."
Dumb said: "Uncle Owen was about to be killed by those men in black, and then he used the Pluto Sword and killed two men in black."
This time, even the Tiangang Sword Master couldn't keep calm. He opened his eyes again, cold light shot out, and his expression moved slightly: "You said that Owen used the Pluto Sword. So, the third sword that has been rampant on the mainland for many years
The first killer, 'Pluto', is him. I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it! My disciple actually became a killer. My child, please continue talking."
Dumb nodded and told in detail how Owen scared off the man in black, how he fainted, and everything that happened between him and Owen. "Uncle Owen said before he died, the person he was most sorry for in his life was him.
My little junior sister and your old man. He said, let me come to the Sword Sect when I have time. After my uncle died, I cremated his body and took the ashes with me. Use the blood of the dragon as a guide to open it.
, the gate of time and space." Ah-Dai took out the blue dragon's blood from his collar. In the flickering light, the Tiangang epee that Owen gave to Ah-Dai and the jar containing Owen's ashes flew out. Under Ah-Dai's control
, fell smoothly to the ground.
The Tiangang Sword Master and Xi Wen were all silent. With a flash of breeze, the Tiangang Sword Master had landed in front of Ah-Dai, and he was very close. Ah-Dai was surprised to find that the Tiangang Sword Master only looked like a middle-aged man in his forties.
He didn't have many wrinkles on his face, but his beard and hair were all white. He didn't look very handsome. He had a clear face, a high nose, and a pair of red and phoenix eyes that opened and closed with a hint of coldness. Looking carefully, Dumb discovered that,
The Tiangang Sword Master had a strange charm that made him unconsciously feel a sense of reverence. This was a feeling that even Cardinal Xuan Ye had never given him. The Tiangang Sword Master exuded a strong aura of awe-inspiring righteousness.
At this moment, his whole body was trembling slightly, and his eyes were shining with light as he looked at the two things on the ground.
The Tiangang Sword Master stretched out his right hand, and the Tiangang heavy sword and the ashes altar, which weighed more than 70 kilograms, floated up and landed on his palm. Although many years of practice had already allowed him to reach the state of having no desires or desires, but suddenly
Learning about the death of his beloved disciple and the cause of his daughter's death also made the world-famous sword master feel a surge of emotion. He gently stroked the sword body and murmured: "Old Jiu, you have never lived a better life."
It’s too painful. Hey, this was all Master’s fault in the first place. I shouldn’t have neglected you because of your junior sister’s death. I can’t blame you!”
The relationship between the seven Xi Wen and Owen was very deep. Several of them were already in tears, and they were crying around Tiangang Sword Master. Feeling the sad atmosphere, Owen's face seemed to reappear in Ah-Dai's heart, and he choked with sobs.
: "Uncle Owen, I will definitely avenge you."
Tiangang Sword Master suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashed coldly, and said to Dumb: "Show me the Pluto Sword."
Ah-Dai was startled and said hurriedly: "The evil energy on Pluto's sword is too strong. I'm afraid, I'm afraid of you..."
Tiangang Sword Master snorted coldly, and his aura surged, causing the whole cave to tremble slightly. "Bring it here, I don't believe that any evil can harm me."
Only then did Ah-Dai remember that the Tiangang Sword Master's Sheng Sheng Jue had been cultivated to the ninth level. He nodded, unbuttoned his coat, and exposed the leather bag inside. The hilt of the Pluto Sword inlaid with black gems emitted a faint cold light.
Ah-Dai warned: "Sword Master, you old man, please don't draw it out! The Pluto Sword is taken out of its sheath to take away the soul." After saying that, he took off the Pluto Sword and its skin bag and handed it to the Tiangang Sword Master respectfully.
before.
The Tiangang Sword Master handed the Tiangang Sword and Owen's ashes to Xi Wen beside him, and his whole body was filled with vitality. Dumb found that the Pluto Sword in his hand seemed to be wrapped in an unknown energy, and he no longer felt uncomfortable.
There was no trace of evil in it, as if it was just an ordinary short sword. The Pluto Sword fell into the hands of Tiangang Sword Master with its leather bag attached. He grabbed the hilt and pulled out the Pluto Sword with its sheath. The Pluto Sword left the leather bag and suddenly
The evil spirit was strong, but the overwhelming evil intention still could not break through the fighting spirit released by the Tiangang Sword Master. The white light lit up, and Dui could clearly see that the Pluto Sword wrapped in fighting spirit continued to release a faint gray gas.
.
A look of surprise flashed in the eyes of Tiangang Sword Master, and he frowned and said: "This is the Pluto Sword that ruined Owen's life! This kid is so obsessed and has caused so many murders. It's no wonder that he will not end well. The world.
The Ultimate Evil Pluto Sword is indeed very powerful. I don’t know how many attacks I can withstand from the Nine Arts of Pluto."
Dumb said: "Uncle Owen said that if I can practice to the ninth level of Shengshengjue in the future, I can use the first five moves of Pluto's sword. He also said that the next few moves are not the power that should appear in the world. Sword Master,
You old man, please be more careful."
The Tiangang Sword Master put the Pluto Sword into his skin and said to Dumb: "If I told you now that I want to keep this Pluto Sword with me, would you be willing? After all, this was given to you by Owen."
Hearing the words of Tiangang Sword Master, Ah-Dai felt a sense of relief in his heart. Although the Pluto Sword was powerful, it also caused great trouble to Ah-Dai. He nodded repeatedly and said: "It would be best if you keep the Pluto Sword.
If Uncle Owen hadn't insisted on giving it to me, I wouldn't have wanted it. The evil power is really terrifying."
The Tiangang Sword Master looked at the relief in Ah-Dai's eyes, smiled slightly, and said: "What a pity! It is of no use to me. Owen is right, an evil weapon like this can benefit people if used in the right place. You
I am very satisfied with your character, so you will be the guardian of the Pluto Sword." After saying that, he threw the Pluto Sword to Dumb.
Dumb was stunned, grabbed the Pluto Sword and murmured: "Don't you think about it anymore? Only with such a high skill as yours can I control it by keeping it by my side! I'm afraid, I..."
The Tiangang Sword Master's face darkened and he said: "As a disciple of my Tiangang Sword Sect, you must have a strong will and face difficulties. What do you look like like this? Don't you understand the principle that man can conquer nature?"
Seeing the Tiangang Sword Master getting angry, Ah-Dai couldn't help but feel afraid. He quickly put away the Pluto Sword and hung it on his body, not daring to say a word.
Tiangang Sword Master glanced at his seven disciples and said, "What do you think of Owen's death?"
Xi Wen said: "Master, this assassin's union has done an incredible job. They know clearly that Junior Owen is your disciple, yet they dare to murder Junior Sister and force Junior to join them. I think it's time for us to take the initiative.
.I believe that with our brothers’ skills, we should be able to defeat the Killer Guild and avenge our ninth brother.”
Zhou Wen said bitterly: "Elder brother is right, the Assassin's Guild is simply too abominable. It doesn't take our Tiangang Sword Sect seriously at all. Ninth Brother's revenge must be avenged!"
Tiangang Sword Master closed his eyes, sighed softly, and said: "So what if you take revenge, so what if you don't take revenge? No matter what, your junior brother and junior sister will not survive. I have lived a hundred years in vain, but I can't protect you."
My own disciple and daughter, hey--what's the use of just having the name of Sword Master?" Remembering what Ah-Dai just said that Owen was still thinking of him when he was dying, his eyes couldn't help but moisten.
Lu Wen asked tentatively: "Master, can this be the end of it?"
Tiangang Sword Master shook his head slightly and said: "I'm tired, you can take Ah-Dai back. Let me think about it. From today on, Ah-Dai will officially become the third generation disciple of my Tiangang Sword Sect."
Xi Wen stopped the junior brothers who were still talking with his eyes, and pulled Ah-Dai out of the grotto with them.
Walking out of the grotto, Ah-Dai suddenly burst into tears. He just told everyone what happened between him and Owen, which was equivalent to allowing him to completely recall everything that happened between him and Owen, thinking about what Owen had done to him, and what he had done for many years.
The friendship between them made him feel sad.
Xi Wen patted Ah-Dai on the shoulder and said in a deep voice: "Kid, don't cry. Don't worry, Junior Brother Owen will never die in vain. Master has always been the most protective of shortcomings, and he will never let the people of the Killer Guild go unpunished. You
You’ve been tired along the way, so let’s take a good rest first. The master has already decided on your name. From now on, you don’t call us uncles, you want to call us uncle. Do you understand? Call the master master.”
Dui wiped his tears and nodded: "Yes, uncle."
Back in the Sword Sect, Ah-Dai was arranged in an ordinary hut. Brother Yan and Xuan Yue's rooms were next to his. Brother Rock had gone to bed long ago. But Xuan Yue had been waiting for him to come back.
"Ah-Dai, what's wrong with you? Why are your eyes red? Did something happen?" Looking at Ah-Dai's sad expression, Xuan Yue asked with concern.
Dui took Xuan Yue's little hand and said: "Yueyue, the master said that he would accept me as a disciple and make me the third generation disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect. I'm fine, I just feel sad when I think of Uncle Owen's death."
Xuan Yue was stunned and said: "Master? You mean Tiangang Sword Master? However, if you join the Tiangang Sword Sect, you won't be able to travel the mainland with me. How can that be done? You are their follower, but you have to
Stay with me."
Dumb lowered his head and said: "I, I don't know, my heart is very messed up."
Xuan Yue looked at Ah-Dai's appearance and couldn't bear to force him any more. She said softly: "You're tired after a long night's journey. You should rest first. We'll talk about everything after you wake up." After that, she forced Ah-Dai to
She pushed her to the bed and covered him with a quilt herself. Just as she was about to go out, Ah-Dai took her hand and said, "Yueyue, can you stay with me for a little longer? I feel so lonely."
Xuan Yue nodded lightly, pulled a stool and sat next to Ah-Dai, letting him hold her little hand, and whispered: "Go to sleep quickly, everything will be over when you wake up."
Holding Xuan Yue's soft little hand, Ah-Dai's excitement gradually calmed down. He was indeed a little tired, and he fell asleep after a while.
It was not until evening that Ah-Dai woke up from his sleep. Xuan Yue had disappeared, and the room was empty. Ah-Dai lay flat on the bed, gently stroking the Pluto Sword on his chest, recalling the scene of meeting the Tiangang Sword Master in the early morning, and felt in his heart
Ups and downs like waves. The powerful aura exuded by Tiangang Sword Master, Xi Wen and others made him feel so insignificant. He knew clearly that even if he used Dark Flash, he would never be able to do anything to them. So
With my current skills, it is impossible to avenge Uncle Owen. It seems that the only way is to practice continuously!
At this time, the door suddenly opened, and Xuan Yue got in. She thought Ah-Dai was still asleep, so she tiptoed to Ah-Dai's side. She was startled when she saw Ah-Dai's eyes open, "Hey, when will you wake up?"
What? Why didn't you say anything when I came in? You scared me. It's true."
Dui forced a smile, sat up, and said, "I just woke up, Yueyue, didn't you take a rest?"
Xuan Yue said: "Sleep for a while. Let's go. Those old men asked us to go to dinner together. Rock and Yanli have already gone."
Ah-Dai frowned and said: "Yueyue, you can't be rude to your uncles. They are all elders worthy of respect."
Xuan Yue stuck out her cute little tongue and said, "I know, let's go quickly."
Dui got up from the bed, simply tidied up his appearance, and under the leadership of Xuan Yue, he came to the lobby of the Tiangang Sword Sect again. There was an extra table in the lobby, and Xi Wen and other second-generation disciples of the Tiangang Sword Sect were all
Here, the two brothers Yan Yan and Yan Li were sitting respectfully at the bottom. On the table, there were several large pots of vegetables, and the aroma came from them, which could not help but arouse the hunger in Ah-Dai's belly.
Xi Wen smiled slightly and said, "Ah-Dai, come quickly, I'll be waiting for you." Ah-Dai and Xuan Yue sat next to Yan Li and Yan Li.
Xi Wen said: "You are new to the mountain. There is nothing good to entertain you. They are all specialties from the mountain. Just eat them. Everyone in the Sword Sect eats these. Although you are originally guests, you are not an exception."
The four of them had been hungry for a long time and would not be picky about anything. These delicious meals made them eat a lot. Even Xuan Yue ate a lot. On the contrary, Xi Wen and the other seven ate very little. Since they learned about it today
After what happened to Owen, their emotions have been difficult to calm down.
"Ah-Dai, how did you meet Yan Yan and the others? I heard Feng Ping say that when he met you, you seemed to be just a person. It didn't take long for you to get together with Yan Yan and the others. And this
A little girl from the Holy Holy See, whose child are you? Why does the Holy See allow you to walk around the continent casually? You seem to be under the age of experience."
Duan glanced at Xuan Yue, and told how he met Xuan Yue, how he later took over the mission of the Death Mountain, and his encounters with the Puyan tribe and the Elf tribe. However, he did not explain that Xuan Yue's father was the red man of the Vatican.
One of the Cardinals.
After listening to his narration, Lu Wen laughed and said: "You young people! You really don't know how high the sky is and how high it is. Can you even go to the Death Mountain? Fortunately, the kind-hearted elves stopped you, otherwise, we would have really arrived.
There, I’m afraid I’ll never get out again.”
Xi Wen looked at Yan Ju with soft eyes and said: "I didn't expect that your wife would let Yan Ju get killed. Alas - Yan Ju was originally a good boy, but he had too much desire for power, which made him fall into the trap.
The devil's way. It's just a pain for you! People can't be resurrected after death, so be sorry. Yan Yan, if you are willing to stay, I can officially accept you as a disciple of the Tiangang Sword Sect." He understands Yan Yan's character, and he has now become
He became the head of the Tiangang Sword Sect, so he could easily make the decision.
If Xiwen had wanted to accept him as his disciple when Yan Yan was young, he would have agreed without hesitation. But now, he couldn't. He shook his head and said sincerely: "Thank you, Teacher Xiwen. But since we agreed to the elf
The Queen must go and help her find her tribe, and she must not break her promise. If there is a chance in the future, I will definitely ask for your advice."
Xi Wen nodded slightly and said: "Okay, I won't force you. Dumb, are you going to help the elves find the clan members too?"
Dui looked at Xuan Yue, who had an anxious look in his eyes. "Uncle, I promised the Elf Queen first, so I think it's better to help her find someone first."
Xi Wen smiled slightly, how could he not understand Xuan Yue's expression, "You are all kind-hearted and good children. It is right to help the elves. You are doing the right thing. If you offend any nobles of the Sunset Empire in the future, you will all
You can come back. No one will trouble you here. But, Dumb, I hope you stay for a few more days. Master, he is very confused because of his ninth brother. I think, after he decides how to deal with the Killer Guild,
You can go again."
Upon hearing that Xi Wen did not stop Ah-Dai and herself from looking for the elves, Xuan Yue was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "No problem, the scenery of Tiangang Mountain is so beautiful! Especially the sunrise that day, we also wanted to stay for a few days.
"However, what Xuan Yue didn't expect was that precisely because of her decision to stay here, she and Ah-Dai were separated for three years.
…………
Somewhere in the Sunset Empire, the headquarters of the Thieves Guild.
"What, the fourth child was killed by the Pluto disciples of the Assassin's Guild?" The president of the Thieves' Guild burst into flames, anger filling his chest. The acquirer has always been the central force of the Thieves' Guild. Every loss of one person is the worst for the Thieves' Guild.
A heavy blow. If it weren't for the extremely high commission paid by the employer this time, all the acquirers in the labor union would not have mobilized together. The temptation of 10,000 diamond coins is too great. With this money, it is enough for the Thieves Guild to
Live a prosperous life for ten years.
Miefeng took a step forward, lowered his head and said, "President, it's all my fault. If my fourth uncle hadn't saved me, he wouldn't have died under the sword of Hades. Please punish me."
The president glanced at his daughter. This was his only daughter and the greatest pride in his life. Not only was Mie Feng extremely talented, but he also practiced much harder than when he was young. At only nineteen years old, he
Reaching the level of a acquirer was entirely achieved through her own efforts. The other six acquirers can be said to be her old brothers. They love Mie Feng sometimes even more than herself. He understands very well why the fourth brother will
He took the sword from Pluto on behalf of Mie Feng. He sighed, shook his head and said, "First tell me the whole story."
Miefeng lowered his head and said: "Here's what happened. After we accepted the deposit from our employer, under your order, we led ten senior thieves and one hundred ordinary thieves to quietly enter the Tianyuan Clan Elf Forest. Just now.
At the beginning, everything went very smoothly. We set up many traps and spent half a month capturing sixteen ordinary elves, including six male elves and ten female elves. We were still ten short of the employer's requirements.
Only a few people. However, those elves later became more vigilant and frequently sent experts to patrol the forest. Our high-level thieves and ordinary thieves suffered heavy losses, so we had to temporarily withdraw from the elf forest. Later, some
Several strangers appeared. There were six men and two women among them, a total of eight people. Their skills were not very advanced. When they just entered the elf forest, they were stopped by a small group of elves. The elves may have been captured by us.
I didn’t believe those outsiders and insisted on restraining them. Those outsiders also agreed and were tied up by the elf magician using natural magic. I calculated it at the time and found the number of this group of elves, plus we had already captured
, just enough for the thirty people our employer needed, so we discussed and decided to use all our strength to capture this group of elves. So, we quietly followed the group of elves into the elf forest. After inquiring, there were no other elves around.
Under the circumstances, we attacked them sneakily and captured their magician first. Soon, the situation turned to our side. But at this moment, the strangers suddenly broke free from their restraints and quickly killed many of us.
Ordinary thieves, we had no choice but to go out. In order to avoid more casualties, we decided to challenge these strangers head-on. Their skills were not very high. The first person who came up even took one of my moves.
I can't come down. The second person who appeared was a very tall young man with a dull expression on his face. He used a large long sword and his skills were much more profound than the previous one. But he was not my opponent yet.
After a few moves, and when he was about to lose to me, he suddenly revealed that he had the Pluto Sword as his trump card. The fourth uncle was afraid that I would get hurt, so he tried it himself. Who knew that the young man was indeed the descendant of Pluto, and in the Pluto Sword
Then, with the fourth uncle's skill, he didn't even go out to meet each other, and already..." At this point, Mie Feng's eyes turned red, and she choked and couldn't speak anymore. When she thought of the fourth uncle's death, her
An overwhelming hatred arose in her heart. She hated the person who killed her fourth uncle and wanted to cut him into pieces.
The taker who was made uncle by Miefeng walked to Miefeng and said respectfully: "President, the failure of this mission was all caused by my mistakes. If I didn't let the fourth child test whether the young man was Pluto at that time,
His descendant, he will not die, please punish me."
The president of the Thieves Guild stood up. His whole body was covered in black clothes, and he wore a bamboo hat with green gauze hanging on his head, making it impossible for people to see his face. "Brother Li, I can't blame you for what happened this time.
If I were at the scene, I would also test the depth of that young man. You don’t have to argue about whose mistake it was. I am also very sad about the death of the fourth child, but your mission this time did not fail. On the contrary, it was very good.
Success. The employer not only paid us the originally promised commission, but also paid an additional five thousand diamond coins. These five thousand diamond coins should be regarded as your reward for this trip."
Mie Feng was stunned and said: "Dad, what did you say? We completed the task? However, we only captured sixteen elves! The number did not meet the employer's requirements."
The president of the Thieves Guild softened his voice and said: "No, you have completed the task. Do you know? Among the sixteen elves you captured, one of them has the blood of the Elf King. In other words, she
She is the daughter of the Elf King. With her alone, she is enough to defeat hundreds of ordinary elves. Although we lost a lot of manpower this time, you have also brought a lot of benefits to the organization. Over the years, you have established a solid foundation for the organization.
You have made countless contributions and are all my good brothers. Without you, there would be no Thieves Guild today. Let’s do this. I will give you a year off so that you can have a full rest. As for recruiting new members, I will find someone to do it.
of."
Mie Feng asked anxiously: "Dad, what about the murderer who killed Fourth Uncle? Are we going to let him go just like that?" The person who got the surname Li next to her pulled her and said: "Feng'er, stop talking. Old man
Although everyone is very sad about Si’s death, the person who killed him has a close relationship with the Killer Guild after all, and we cannot afford to offend the Killer Guild.”
Miefeng said excitedly: "Even if the Killer Guild is getting stronger, they can't kill our people for no reason! Have we not provided them with enough intelligence over the years?"
The president raised his hand to stop Mie Feng from continuing, and said calmly: "The Fourth Brother's death will not be in vain, and I will seek justice from the Killer Guild. Although they are stronger than us, they are both dark forces.
It will give me some face. I just feel strange why Pluto gave his disciples the Pluto Sword, his most precious treasure for protection. You can go and rest. I will handle this matter."
Upon hearing that the president wanted to seek justice for the dead taker, the five older takers showed gratitude in their eyes. Without saying anything else, they quietly left the room. Only the president and Mie Feng were left in the room.
Mie Feng removed the veil from his face and said, "Dad, my fourth uncle's death must not be in vain. Just let me go. As long as I find the murderer, I will definitely kill him."
The president said slightly angrily: "Have you caused me enough trouble? Don't you understand that there are people outside the world? The first rule of our Thieves Guild is that we are not allowed to kill people. As my daughter, do you want to break this rule?
He sighed, and then said: "I know you have a deep relationship with the fourth child, but some things can't be handled on impulse. You are my only daughter. If something happens to you, what do you want your father to do?"
Done. Okay, don’t interfere in this matter anymore, I will ask the Killer Guild to find out. If there is any news, I will inform you. Go down."
