Jianghu chaos

The crowd was stunned for a moment, looking around following the sound.

The sun shines on the roof, and on the eaves, someone steps on the black tiles, coming across the wind amidst the fine light and interlaced tree shadows.With his hands behind his back, his figure was unbiased, and it was clear that the fluttering of his clothes was extremely slow, but he was in front of everyone in the blink of an eye.

As soon as he turned around, the wide sleeves curved gracefully, the brocade clothes and jade crowns glowed with warmth, no weapons were carried around his body, and the smile on his face was gentle and friendly, without a trace of aggressiveness, but inexplicably made people feel powerful and involuntary. Get rid of the hostility and calm down.

Someone yelled: "Master Shangguan!"

Ruan Xi has already looked straight ahead, and has a vague guess in his heart but is not sure. Hearing someone say it at this moment, he is half expected and half surprised.

Shangguan Yun... That's Shangguan Yun from Baichuan Villa!

Feeling boiling, Ruan Xi stood under the stage and raised his head. He could see him clearly from the excellent viewing angle.

Shangguan Yun cupped his hands, bowed to Caoqin, and said slightly apologetically: "Recently, I have been entangled in common affairs, and I was caught up in a few trivial matters on the way, and I couldn't catch up with the opening ceremony in time. Shangguan Yun is ashamed, and I hope Miss Cao will be happy."

Caoqin hurriedly returned the gift: "The owner of Shangguan is busy with his affairs, so he came here. Caoqin accepts the owner's gratitude."

Shangguan Yun looked sideways, and his eyes met Xie Chaohan's. The corner of the latter's lips curved, and before he could speak, his eyes greeted him.

Shangguan Yun was very thoughtful and agreed with the representatives of the several sects present, and everyone in the venue waited quietly, no one came to interrupt.After the greeting, Shangguan Yun paused for a moment, and asked Cao Qin for approval without any haste: "Just now, you all seemed to have a dispute, and you happened to hear something when you came down, and you also have some thoughts, I wonder if you can borrow Miss Cao for a while, and let me be with you." Tell me what's on your mind?"

Cao Qin stepped aside and said, "Master Shangguan, please."

Shangguan Yun nodded with a smile, walked slowly towards the front of the martial arts stage, and flicked his clothes.

"If I heard you right, what you guys are arguing about just now is that you suspect that the disciples of the Luoying Sect are bullying the weak and hurting the disciples of Cangshan Sect, Juanyungu, and Qinglingjian Sect for no reason?"

Shi Quanming of the Qingling Sword School cupped his fists and said, "Not bad."

"You all recognize the Luoying swordsmanship before you believe that it was the disciples of the Luoying sect who made the move, but what if someone else steals a few moves from the teacher and deliberately blames the Luoying sword?"

Xie Chaohan said, "No."

Shangguan Yun said with a smile: "I heard that the Luoying Sword Art is the secret of the Luoying Sect. Only disciples who enter the house can learn it. It is easy for outsiders to learn the shape and learn the spirit... However, there are always exceptions to everything. If someone reveals it or has ulterior motives People from the Luoyingmen sneak into Luoyingmen and wait for an opportunity to make trouble?"

Xie Zhaohan thought for a while, then shook his head: "I understand what Brother Shangguan means, but the Luoying Sword is extremely difficult and must be practiced with a unique mental method. It is impossible to learn just the sword moves. The Luoying School has established a sect so far, and it is true to learn it. Only my father and I are the only ones who belong to the Luoying Sword, not to mention my father and the disciples in the sect have been busy preparing for the martial arts conference in the sect since the beginning of the year. Trouble. I’m not afraid of your jokes, but now I’m the only idler in the whole Luoyingmen.”

Shi Yu sneered: "So, Mr. Qi Xie took the suspicion on himself? What a sense of loyalty!"

Shangguan Yun didn't seem to be surprised, and turned to ask those people: "Then apart from the Luoying swordsmanship, have any of you ever seen that person's appearance clearly?"

Xue Yan hesitated: "It's the disciples of the faction who reported it back, I have never seen it with my own eyes..."

Shi Quanming said: "The man was leaving when I arrived, and I didn't see it clearly. But I asked the injured disciple to dictate and asked someone to draw a portrait of that man."

Among the crowd, some people questioned: "Dictation and painting, this painting may not be like it!"

"I saw it!" Shi Yu said in a loud voice, "He has a new face, I've never seen it before! It's just seeing him, so what, he can change his face!"

As soon as the words came out, there were snorts all over the place: "I have recognized the sword technique, so does disguise have any meaning?"

Shangguan Yun said: "Yes."

The three sects all believed that Luoying swordsmanship hurt people, and Xie Chaohan confirmed that except himself, the rest of the disciples in the school were busy preparing for the martial arts conference at Luoyingmen, so the only clue at this moment was the person's appearance—— At that time, disguise is the most indisputable evidence!If the person has not changed his face, and the person is not a disciple of the Luoying Sect, then the direction of investigation is whether the Luoying Sect has been stolen from his teacher; clean.

Xue Yan and Shi Quanming looked at Shi Yu together, after all, among the three, he was the only one who saw the man's face.

Shi Yu scratched his head, and said with a little frustration: "Uh...Actually, I'm not sure if he has disguised himself."

Shangguan Yun nodded, and comforted him with gentle words: "The incident happened suddenly, and it was too late for Shi Shaoxia to care about the disciples in his sect. It is reasonable for him not to notice, so there is no need to blame yourself." After finishing speaking, he slightly raised his voice, and said loudly to the disciples of the other sects : "Everyone came from all over the country to participate in the martial arts conference. What is the purpose? I believe that it is the same as the next one. It is to form a martial arts alliance, unite the big and small sects of the rivers and lakes, and jointly protect the peace and order of the rivers and lakes."

The audience echoed, Ruan Xi nodded vigorously, his blood boiling.

"Then..." Shangguan Yun changed the subject, "Since the discussion of the Martial Arts Conference, there have been many obstacles. I think you all know who is obstructing."

The atmosphere became heavy again, and the people in the audience said angrily: "The hero's name is Yu Gu! Sunset City!"

"The county government still allows people to defend themselves, and the case can only be settled after a thorough investigation. The truth of the wounding has not yet been found out. If Luoyingmen is convicted at this time, the Wulin League will only cut its own wings. Relatives and enemies will be quick." Shangguan Yun Chen let out a deep sigh, and said solemnly, "If you are willing to listen to the next sentence, you might as well put this matter on hold for now. After the martial arts conference is over and the new martial arts leader takes office, how about asking the leader to make a decision?"

Everyone also felt that it was reasonable, but Shi Yu was still a little vacillating: "If the new martial arts leader is friendly with him, is he deliberately covering up... Or, if he becomes the leader, then even if he really did it at Luoyingmen, we will have nothing to complain about. The door is open!"

Xie Chaohan finally couldn't help but say: "Young Master Shi, don't worry too much. The new official has three fires, and this is the first one. If you deliberately cover up, you will be discredited in front of the whole martial arts. If you can defeat the leader who stands out from everyone present, you will never lose his reputation." Would you not even think of this? As for me... Heh, if I really sit in that seat, I will have to prove my innocence to convince everyone, and you will not give me a chance to fish in troubled waters."

Shangguan Yun nodded, and said to the crowd: "Exactly. If you are still worried, Shangguan Yun is willing to guarantee Brother Xie with his life. After the martial arts conference, he will give you an explanation. I wonder if you can trust me and Baichuan Villa?"

Shi Yu was terrified, and before the people from Juanyun Valley and Qingling Mountain could speak, he took the lead in responding: "Of course we believe in the Lord Shangguan! Then, let the leader decide after the martial arts conference!"

Since he said so, even if Xue Yan and Shi Quanming hesitated, they couldn't say anything more, not to mention that Baichuan Villa came forward to guarantee, and all sects, big and small, would watch. Missed the leader of the martial arts alliance.Since Shangguan promised to protect Xie Chaohan in the future, they were even more shaken and nodded vaguely.

Shangguan Yun seemed to be relieved, the corners of his lips were raised again, and he looked down the stage.

Ruan Xi was so flattered when the eyes with a three-pointed smile swept over him, his heart was beating like a drum, and he jumped for a long time before he realized that his eyes had passed him and all the people in the rivers and lakes, and turned to the silent man who had been silent for a long time. One person submerged in the crowd.

It's Mei Qian.

The two just looked at each other across the crowd, without saying a word, for a long time, Shangguan Yun shook his head helplessly, and gave Xie Chaohan a sympathetic look.

Xie Chaohan shrugged and wrote casually: "Can the meeting continue?"

He acted as if nothing had happened, and he exposed it as soon as he said it, but everyone present couldn't help being embarrassed. You said something and I said something, especially the three disciples of Cangshan, Juanyungu, and Qinglingjian. Apologize! Reluctant, not apologizing seems to be unreasonable, vaguely trying to confuse the matter, but he confuses himself so that he doesn't make a sound, only one or two hums remain.

Shi Quanming opened his mouth, raised his clasped hand halfway, held it back again, and turned to Caoqin and bowed low: "The Qingling Sword Sect is rude, I hope Miss Cao will forgive me."

Cao Qin thanked Shang Guanyun with a grateful nod, and said a few words of comfort together, turning the matter over.

Everyone returned to their seats, and Ruan Xi remembered that just now, he was only concerned about the shock of Luoyingmen, and then he focused on Shangguan Yun, forgetting about Mei Qian.As soon as he turned around, he saw that Mei Qian was already sitting in the seat, Shi Shiran was sipping a cup of tea with a calm expression, as if the farce just now had never happened.

Beside him, Ye Fushu was holding a pen to consider his words: "This matter... should I write it or not?"

Mei Qian drank tea, and said nonchalantly, "Write."

Ye Fushu propped his chin with a pen, and muttered: "Shangguan Zhuangzhu said, let's put it on hold for now, wait until the martial arts conference is over and the new leader takes office... Let's not write, don't cause trouble for the Zhuangzhu."

Ruan Xi leaned over, glanced at Shangguan Yun who was whispering with Xie Chaohan on the stage, and asked quietly: "Brother and brother Xie, are you both familiar with the owner of Shangguan's estate?"

Ye Fushu's ears froze.

Mei Qian leisurely sipped tea, smiled without saying a word.

definitely is!Ruan Xi became even more excited: "Then, can I get to know the owner of Shangguan?"

Mei Qian was amused, and lightly covered the teacup: "Why are you nervous, Brother Shangguan is so scary?"

"No, it's not..." Ruan Xi scratched his head embarrassingly, "Shangguan's demeanor is really heartbreaking..."

"If you are embarrassed, then let them come to us." Mei Qian said casually, squinting for a while to look at Shangguan Yun who was pulling Xie Chaohan's right arm to inspect, and suddenly his hand moved.

Amid the barely audible sound of breaking through the air, something brushed against the martial arts flag and rushed away, directly attacking Xie Chaohan.

Shangguan Yun's eyes moved, and he flicked in front of Xie Chaohan's body. He rolled up his sleeves and gathered them all in his palms.

Without even exchanging a word, from a distance, Ruan Xi saw Xie Chaohan couldn't help laughing, bowing his head and chuckling.

Shangguan Yun actually stopped inspecting his sealed right arm, and instead sat down on the left side of Caoqin.
