Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Xiangliu and Hongjiang cooperated well to capture all of Xuan's men. He returned to the academy almost humming a song, so the later disciples looked at Xiangliu in horror as he greeted everyone with a pleasant face along the way.

Xiangliu found that he was in a rare good mood and was willing to be nice to his junior brothers and sisters who joined the sect later. However, what he got in return was not the closeness he had imagined, but fear. Of course, he felt very uncomfortable. But after thinking about it, he felt that this was quite interesting, and decided to have a fight from time to time so that they could always maintain this state.

Xiangliu hadn't been showing off for long before Shi Ying called him over. He didn't think there was anything strange at first, and thought that Shi Ying knew about his "feats" during the holiday, so she asked him over. But after Shi Ying opened his mouth, he realized that things were not that simple.

Shi Ying asked directly: "You know Xiyan Prince Sun Xuan, right? What do you think of him?"

Xiang Liu answered without hesitation: "I don't know what luck the Xiyan prince had. He was obviously a medium, but he was taught by the White Emperor himself. The White Emperor even indulged him and ruined his only princess."

"I think the grandson of King Xiyan must have some ability, but he is actually a fierce man. His uncles are no match for him. If King Xiyan hadn't supported him, the only person who could succeed to the throne of Xiyan would be Xuan."

"As for how he will get along with Hao Ling after he succeeds to the throne, I think that even if Hao Ling doesn't want to fight against Di Xuan, Di Xuan is probably still thinking about how Bai Di refused to send troops to help rescue his father, which forced his aunt to go to the battlefield and die. So I am not surprised at all that Di Xuan deliberately ruined Hao Ling's princess."

Shi Ying understood Xiangliu's meaning, which was that he thought there was a very high possibility that Xuan would ascend to the throne, and he believed that Xuan could even unify the Great Wilderness.

Shi Ying did not wait for Xiang Liu to ask anything, and directly said: "A few days ago, Xuan offended me and your second master. Your second master said that since Xuan is determined to unify the Great Wilderness, we can train him. We must know that the fragrance of plum blossoms comes from the bitter cold, and the sharpness of a sword comes from the sharpening of a sword."

"If Xuan Xuan doesn't have enough experience when he is still a nobody, he will inevitably suffer in the future. Your Second Master also has good intentions. He thinks that if he can see through his uncles' attitudes towards him sooner, he will not be trapped by blood ties and will not be reluctant to take drastic measures, thus wasting a great opportunity."

Xiang Liu couldn't believe what he heard. He couldn't help but say what was in his mind: "Second Master is clearly trying to kill Xuan!"

Shi Ying glanced at him reproachfully, "You still haven't listened to your master's words. Your second master is clearly thinking about Xuanxuan wholeheartedly. We don't care whether Xuanxuan appreciates it or not, but you are a disciple who has been taught a lot by your second master. How could you misunderstand her?"

Xiangliu somehow thought of the few new members who were boastful. It was as if he had suddenly found the source. He couldn't help but reveal an expression of sudden enlightenment, and began to praise Jiang Xinxin readily: "It's my fault. I have a narrow vision and not much experience. That's why I didn't appreciate the intentions of the Second Master. I will discuss this with my foster father and I must teach Xuanxuan a lesson!"

Shi Ying nodded with satisfaction, "This young man is teachable."

"But there is no rush. You and Hong Jiang can do it slowly. Although your second master wants to train Xuan, Xuan is just an outsider after all. You are her disciple. It is absolutely unreasonable to kill a mouse and damage the jade bottle."

What else could Xiangliu do? He could only be thankful that he was the jade bottle mentioned by Shiying, and not a mouse.

However, although he repeatedly said that he would discuss the matter with his adoptive father Hong Jiang, he had actually already made up his mind to use Fang Fengbei's identity to get the Central Plains clans to take action.

Now that the Central Plains is under the rule of the Western Yan Kingdom, all the clans in the Central Plains, big and small, must have begun betting on the next King of Western Yan. There must be too many people who have defected to the Five Kings and Seven Kings, so there is no need for Hong Jiang to take action.

That night Xiangliu sent the letter to Fangfeng Yiying, but he didn't tell anyone about it, especially Ye Shiqi. Even though he admitted that he had borrowed Fangfeng Bei's identity, Ye Shiqi was Tushan Jing, his adopted brother-in-law, after all, and it was not appropriate for him to know many things.

However, Ye Shiqi has already made up his mind to be Ye Shiqi, so it is inevitable that he feels a little awkward when getting along with Xiang Liu, who used to be his brother-in-law. So everyone just maintains a superficial calm in their daily lives and is unwilling to have much contact in their hearts.

After receiving the letter from her adopted second brother, Fangfeng Yiying was still wondering why he suddenly wanted to target the prince Xuan. However, the situation was very favorable for both her and Tushan Hou. After thinking about it, she secretly revealed the news to Tushan Hou. After Tushan Hou confirmed the news a little, he went to the Fifth and Seventh Kings to surrender.

Originally, there would definitely be no big problem with this approach, but the problem was that Fangfeng Yiying loved Tushan Hou deeply and was even willing to stay in the Tushan family as a widow. She knew that it was best not to deal with such matters directly, and she really didn't know that Tushan Hou was blatantly trying to please both the Five Kings and the Seventy Thousands.

Strictly speaking, it is not a big problem to please both sides. The key is not to put all of this out in the open!

Tushan Hou didn't know that his image and even feelings in Fangfeng Yiying's heart were affected by the bad things he did after his haste. Although Fangfeng Yiying's feelings towards him have not changed at all and she is still very obsessed and convinced of him, she has begun to doubt his abilities.

Fangfeng Yiying is not the kind of woman who puts love first. The premise for her to fall in love with Tushan Hou is that the other party is "Tushan Jing" of Tushan clan, who is her fiancé. He has a good family background and a good reputation. More importantly, he has outstanding abilities. With these conditions, she fell in love with Tushan Hou without hesitation. Even after knowing that he is not Tushan Jing, she is still willing to maintain her relationship with him and even tries to help him kill Tushan clan.

Originally, whether Tushan Hou was inferior to Tushan Jing in ability was not important in Fangfeng Yiying's eyes. But now, the ability demonstrated by Tushan Hou was not even comparable to Tushan Jing, and it even seemed mediocre, which made Fangfeng Yiying a little unacceptable.

No matter what Fangfeng Yiying thought and what Tushan Hou did, in short, the Fifth King and the Seventh King did know that Xuan was living a very good life in Haoling Kingdom, and even had accumulated a lot of useful manpower under his command. This was enough to make them nervous.

The Fifth and Seventh Kings were really rough in their actions. They sent people directly to Qingshui Town in an attempt to assassinate Xuan.

Qingshui Town was not a base camp for Xuan, but in terms of security, it was definitely only inferior to the capital of Haoling Kingdom. Therefore, the three waves of assassins sent by the Fifth King and the Seventh King successively all failed here. Xuan was able to find a handle on them and took the opportunity to gain favor with King Xiyan. Even though the two of them did not receive any punishment, they gained nothing in the end and were completely abandoned by King Xiyan.

Jiang Xinxin couldn't help but sigh for the Fifth and Seventh Princes after receiving the news. "I originally thought that these two people could at least cause some trouble for Xuan, but I didn't expect that they would give Xuan a head and gain his favor in return."

Shi Ying didn't expect this to be the outcome, but he was more patient than Jiang Xinxin and comforted Jiang Xinxin directly, "Then I'll personally teach Xuan a lesson this time. I want him to know that our academy is not something that anyone can use or provoke."

Jiang Xinxin responded casually, and Shi Ying saw that Jiang Xinxin was so concerned about this matter, so he gritted his teeth and decided to take action himself.
