The Second Princess of Beihan was leaning against the railing, gazing at the thousands of koi in the lake.
Xu Weixiong spent most of his time at the Shangyin Academy;
Last time I returned to Beihan, I didn't stay long before I was assigned to Wangjian Mountain.
It was truly difficult for the maids and servants of the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion to even catch a glimpse of this exceptionally talented and beautiful Second Princess.
When the two maids saw Xu Weixiong, their eyes froze, and they looked somewhat dazed.
Is this Second Princess really the assassin A from the Northern Cold Prince's Mansion?
This news is far too sensational.
Neither Qingniao nor Hongshu are ordinary people.
Xu Weixiong's breakthrough in cultivation did not escape their notice.
The two could hardly believe that the Second Princess had entered the First Grade Vajra Realm simply by going to Wangjian Mountain.
What exactly happened between the Second Princess and that currently most sought-after martial arts master?
What secrets does Wangjian Mountain hold?
A series of questions occupied their thoughts.
So much so that the two of them, holding fruits in their hands, stood there like statues.
It wasn't until Xu Weixiong, lost in thought, came to his senses and looked at the two of them that he finally came to his senses.
Qingniao and Hongshu then bowed and gave a deep curtsy to the Second Princess of Beihan.
Besides visiting brothels and vying for the title of courtesan, Prince Xu Fengnian's usual hobbies include leisurely fishing by Tingchao Lake.
After escorting Bai Hu'er to Tingchao Pavilion, Xu Fengnian and his second sister, Xu Weixiong, took a boat on Tingchao Lake to fish and enjoy themselves.
"Sister, what exactly happened at Wangjian Mountain?"
"Why do you seem like you've lost your soul since you came back?"
Xu Fengnian was biting into a crisp cucumber with one hand and holding a fishing rod with the other.
Seeing that her second sister, Xu Weixiong, looked preoccupied and troubled.
Before Xu Weixiong could answer, Xu Fengnian grinned and said, "Sister, you haven't been bewitched by that Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, have you?"
Chewing on a cucumber, the young prince spoke somewhat vaguely, "With a martial arts master as my brother-in-law, won't I be able to roam the martial world with my head held high?"
"Begging for a beating!"
Xu Weixiong raised his hand, as if to strike!
Plop!
On the surface of Tingchao Lake, water splashes up!
Xu Fengnian simply flipped over and plunged into the lake.
Also entering the water was the Spring Thunder Short Sword, which he had just traded with White Fox Face, and which he wore at his waist.
Lake bottom!
An old man with white hair, whose limbs were bound by bronze chains, was closing his eyes and concentrating.
The two scapulae behind Lao Kui were embedded by two long swords with iron chains.
From a distance, it looks quite impressive!
When Xu Fengnian was ten years old, he accidentally fell into the water, and it was the old man in the lake who saved his life.
After that, whenever Xu Fengnian came here to fish, he would bring some fine wine and roast chicken and throw them into the lake as a way of repaying the debt of gratitude.
Upon encountering an old friend at the bottom of the lake today, Xu Fengnian immediately became interested.
Ignoring the consequences, he drew the Spring Thunder Short Sword from his waist and slashed heavily at the joint of the bronze chain!
clang!
Waves surged from the bottom of the lake, while the surface remained calm before the storm.
Xu Weixiong sat alone on the small boat, already sensing the changes happening on the lake.
quickly!
The tornadoes at the bottom of the lake rose one layer after another, stacking upon each other!
The calm lake surface was finally disturbed!
Boom!
Suddenly, an explosion occurred in the middle of Tingchao Lake!
The lake water surged and rippled.
Only the small boat carrying Xu Weixiong remained completely still.
As the lake surface burst open with waves, an old man with white hair, carrying two swords on his back, roared out!
Like a drowned rat, Prince Xu Fengnian was thrown directly onto the Tingchao Lake corridor by Lao Kui.
"Hahaha!"
"So many years, so many years!"
"Grandpa ate raw fish at the bottom of the lake for so many years! He's finally seen the light of day again!"
Xu Fengnian, who was thrown into the corridor, was unharmed except for the pain from his bottom hitting the ground.
Looking at the old man floating in mid-air, he couldn't help but click his tongue and say, "Goodness, this is a master!"
The white-haired old man twisted his neck and roared arrogantly, "After I tear down this damn Tingchao Pavilion, I'll go and have some fun in the martial world!"
Just then, Old Huang, a servant missing two front teeth, came walking towards them carrying an old box.
"Old Huang, it's dangerous here, you should leave!"
Xu Fengnian spotted Old Huang carrying the box at a glance and hurriedly tried to stop him.
The two had traveled together for three years and six thousand miles, and Xu Fengnian knew Lao Huang's capabilities better than anyone else.
Aside from bullying young widows in the countryside, all Old Huang knew was how to run away when things got tough.
If he runs into a petty thief or something, this old guy runs faster than anyone else!
"Chu Kuangnu! How dare you be so insolent! Believe me, I'll throw you back into the lake and imprison you for another thirty years!"
Old Huang, who was missing two front teeth, placed the wooden box on his back in front of him, stood on the shore of Tingchao Lake, pointed at the white-haired old Kui floating in mid-air, and shouted in a distinctive Western Sichuan accent.
"Humph!"
The white-haired old man glared at his servant, Old Huang, gripping the twin swords embedded in his collarbone tightly with both hands. He gritted his teeth and said, "Sword Nine Huang! If I hadn't been careless back then, I would have lost to you in one move. If you're so capable, let's have another match!"
Old Huang, his body hunched over, smiled and squinted his eyes, raising his hand to slide the sword box standing in front of him!
Bang!
The sound of the mechanism being activated rang out.
The wooden box was opened, revealing five rare and famous swords!
"Jianyi!"
Jian Jiuhuang waved his hand, pointing his sword finger, and chanted a sword incantation!
Buzzing! —
The famous sword in the scabbard seemed to be summoned, emitting a series of melodious sounds!
"With a single sword, dust is cleaved and dragons and snakes roam freely!"
call out!--
With a leap, he unleashed his sword from its sheath and engaged in a fierce battle with the white-haired old man in mid-air!
With two swords in hand, Lao Kui parried left and right, displaying full power and showing no fear whatsoever!
"Sword Two!"
"Two elements give rise to twin lotus blossoms!"
Clang!
Another flying sword was drawn, clashing fiercely with the twin blades in the old man's hand in mid-air, producing a piercing metallic clang.
"Sword Three!"
"The sword's aura weighs three pounds!"
The three longswords were already locked in combat with the old man in mid-air.
The once confident Lao Kui gradually lost ground and began to show signs of decline.
"Sword Four!"
On the shore of Tingchao Lake, Jian Jiuhuang calmly and slowly swung his sword fingers, chanting sword incantations.
The longsword in the scabbard hummed!
