It seems that we are ruthless

The two set off immediately to Xuanzhou, and arrived at Qingxia City in Xuanzhou the next evening.

Qingxia City is full of aura, flowers are blooming in the mountains and fields, the capital is bustling and lively, and there is a thriving scene everywhere.When they arrived, news of Lord Xuandu's return had already spread, and many people came here admiringly, wanting to see his celestial appearance.This place is already densely populated, but now it is even more congested.

As soon as the two entered the city, they were overwhelmed.

Song Yuexi had no choice but to drag Xie Tianfei up to a tall building to breathe on it, and then sent Jujiu to inquire about the news.

The red clouds in the sky are like fire, the sun is shining, and the orange-red brilliance sprinkles the earth, and the whole Qingxia City seems to be soaked in the afterglow of the flames.The pink and white peach blossoms float in the wind, and the faint fragrance lingers on the tip of the nose.After standing for a while, Songyuexi's hair was covered with an unusual golden flower petal.

He followed the direction in which the flowers flew and looked towards the mountain. There was a towering tree with a thick trunk and a green shade like a cover. The golden flowers in his hand were dotted among the thick leaves.

It is an acacia tree.

There are still a lot of red silk and red thread hanging on the branches, which seem to be used by people to pray for marriage.

At a place higher than the acacia tree, misty clouds and mists vaguely shade the Zhulou Cui Pavilion.

Songyuexi searched the past memories, and vaguely remembered that it seemed to be the Qingxia Sword School, a famous school of swordsmanship. He also visited with the old pavilion master back then, and had a swordplay with the masters of the Qingxia School.

After a while, Jujiu flew across the sea of ​​people and came back flapping its wings.

It landed on Songyuexi's arm, and said to the two: "'Xuandu Lord' will appear in Hongyu Villa tonight, summon the disciples of the same sect, and discuss the Dao with everyone."

Song Yuexi: "Go and listen to what he talks about."

Jujiu leads the way, Songyuexi Yujian and Xie Tian follow.After turning a few turns, Asuka stopped outside a villa with blue tiles and white walls.

This place is far away from the hustle and bustle of the market, and the luxuriant flower branches protrude from the wall and flutter in the wind.A dozen Jindan monks guarded the gate with swords, and it seemed that the battle was not small.

Song Yuexi stepped forward, expressed his intentions, and then showed the hollowed-out jade pendant that only disciples of Wangchen Pavilion had.

The monk with the goatee didn't even look at them, and drove them away without politeness: "It's full, so you can't go in. Let's go."

"Can't you really go in?" Song Yuexi looked behind him, then quickly looked away, raised the corners of her lips, and looked at him with gentle eyes.

Xie Tian held down his hand that was about to draw the sword in time.

"We are really disciples of Wangchen Pavilion." He took out a few things from the Baibaoge and stuffed them into the monk's hands calmly.

Goatee immediately showed a friendly smile, and handed out a wooden sign with both hands: "Since you are a disciple of Wangchen Pavilion, let's enter."

The wooden sign said "Tianzi Sihao", Xie Tian accepted it, took the first step, was about to enter the door, but suddenly withdrew his steps, and retreated to Songyuexi: "Master, please."

Song Yuexi glanced at him and entered first.Immediately a servant stepped forward and led them inside.

The Red Rain Villa is quite grandly built, with Danying carvings and white jade pavement inside, it can be seen that it is very rich.

Along the way, there are many servants in the villa, all carrying plates, coming and going in a hurry, probably preparing for the evening banquet.Although they were busy, everyone did not lose their etiquette, and all stopped to salute them.

After all, those who can come in must be distinguished guests with deep pockets.

After going around for a while, the two were led to a garden. On the plaque in the garden were written "Qinghui Terrace" in three flamboyant characters.There was constant laughter inside, there were quite a few people, men and women, all wearing the white school uniform of Wangchen Pavilion.

Songyuexi chuckled at the door: "So there are so many disciples in our pavilion?"

Ju Jiu said: "It's all fake."

When the two of them entered, the Qinghui Terrace was full of spring, a peach blossom tree was planted in the center, and under the tree was a half-foot-high round platform, on which was lit an incense burner.With the gazebo as the center, there are a lot of wooden tables and cushions on the grass below, which circles around five times in total, adding up to the seating capacity of 40 people, and nearly half of them are already seated.

Outside the open-air seats, there is a circular corridor, which is divided into eight different single rooms by screens and bamboo curtains, and each single room is served by a maid.

Song Yuexi and Xie Tian were led to one of the private rooms, and they sat opposite each other, and the maid immediately stepped forward to pour wine.After Xie Tian thanked her, she asked her why Lord Xuan Du chose this place to summon his disciples, the maid shook her head and remained silent.Xie Tian politely asked her to leave, then raised the bamboo curtain halfway up to observe the situation outside.

People came in one after another and were led to different seats.The maids with pretty faces walked through it, constantly serving delicious food and wine to the guests.

The sunset glow melts in the sky, and the moon rises. The view here is wide, and it is a good place to enjoy the moon.It didn't take long for the seats to be full, and then everyone looked up at the pavilion in the center, waiting for that person to appear.

While drinking tea, Songyuexi explored everyone's realm.The people present all came in with huge sums of money, most of them were young men and women with low cultivation bases, some of them had just trained their qi into their bodies, most of them were in the foundation building stage, and the rest were just a few Golden Core monks.Those who want to come to a high level will not be deceived by such a boring trick, so it is understandable.

After an unknown period of time, a gust of wind suddenly blew by, and all the lights in the garden went out.Then peach blossoms fell down the eaves, like a rain of peach blossoms.

In this flower rain, the clear sound of the piano sounded.

Zheng——

As soon as the strings moved, time seemed to be slowed down many times. The overwhelming peach blossoms flew from all directions and gathered on the peach blossom tree. Then, with a "bang", a graceful figure was transformed into a figure.

The man was dressed in crimson clothes, as if dyed by peach blossoms. He sat lightly on a tree branch with a Hengqin on his knees, and the bright moon was in the background.

The white veil covered the lower half of his face, and he only showed a pair of autumn-like eyes and the iconic crescent moon mark on his forehead.Although there is only half a face, it can be seen that there is a bit of beauty.

But that's all.

I don't know who was the first to call out "Mr. Xuandu!" Others also craned their necks and shouted excitedly, as if seeing a monkey for the first time in their lives.

The man's fingers fluttered, the sound of the piano changed again, and an invisible ripple swayed, cutting countless flying flowers, and then the garden became quiet.

Everyone looked at him directly, not daring to scream anymore.

Song Yuexi felt that his piano sound seemed to have a strong charm. He turned his head to look at Xie Tian again, only to see that Xie Tian was not charmed.His golden pupils were stained with bright moonlight, as deep and charming as ever, as if he was sober.

"I came here this time to talk about love with everyone." On the branch, the man in scarlet clothes spoke with a clear voice, "I would like to ask, according to what you see, what is love?"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone stood up and shouted in a cadenced tone: "Ask the world, what is love? Just teach life and death!"[1]

The rest laughed.

The man looked towards the audience and asked seriously, "Is it funny?"

"We all practice the way of ruthlessness, so how can we talk about what love is?" Someone in the private room said with a smile, "Mr. Xuandu asked us this question, just like asking a monk what it is like to have long hair. .”

There was another burst of laughter off the court.

"Can't you talk about love if you are ruthless? Please answer seriously," the man on the branch plucked the strings and whispered softly, "Otherwise... I will kill you."

His tone was very gentle, but it made people shudder, and everyone present was shocked.

But everyone is not very surprised, after all, according to the legend, Xuandu Jun smiles like a flower and kills like a numb, this is the temperament, so it is right.

Xie Tian unconsciously glanced at his pavilion master, and felt that the man's tone was somewhat similar to his, especially the way he smiled like a flower and said cruel words.

At this time, Songyuexi was propping his chin with one hand, and tapping the saber lying on the table with the other. With a gentle expression on his face, he looked at the person on the branch in a lazy posture.Although his expression was relaxed, Xie Tian obviously felt the murderous aura from him.

"Ruqingdao, it is natural to talk about love." Xie Tian stood up, pushed aside the bamboo curtain, and exposed himself to the moonlight.

All eyes focused on him.

He looked at the people on the branch, then at the people around him, and said loudly: "If you don't know... how can you be ruthless? If you don't talk about love, then... how can you be ruthless? But love, how can you pass the love... "

He almost said, look at his pavilion master.When he finished speaking, someone immediately reprimanded him: "Speaking incoherently, it's a bunch of nonsense!"

Song Yuexi didn't think it was nonsense, he looked at Xie Tian's back, thoughtful.

"Then," the man in scarlet clothes looked this way, "have you ever been in love?"

Xie Tian's face became hot, and he said awkwardly: "Never."

He sat back to his original position, picked up the teacup, and took a few sips. While drinking, he watched the expression of the person opposite the wooden table.Fortunately, the other party seemed to be lost in thought, and did not show that kind of smile at him.

The man in scarlet plucked the strings of the zither, and his words had no beginning or end: "There are infatuated people in this world, but love is hard to find."

He glanced at everyone: "Among you, who has really loved?"

Everyone looked at each other.

This is a very dangerous question. Mr. Xuandu is known as the No. 1 ruthless way. No one knows whether he wants to hear a love story or to clean up the door.

No one dared to answer.

The audience was silent, only the sound of the piano was hoarse.

"No?"

The man in scarlet clothes flew down from the tree, held the zither, walked down the stage, bent down to look at the guests at each table, and asked, "Is there really no one? Have you ever had one?"

The person he asked backed away in panic and quickly avoided his gaze.

In the single room of Tianzi [-], Songyuexi followed the man in scarlet clothes with his eyes. The man walked around the tables and asked questions. Innocent boy.But looking at him a few more times, Songyuexi felt that he was more like some kind of untainted spirit who was full of curiosity about the world.

He whispered, "What?"

From the appearance of this scarlet-clothed man, he began to distinguish what he was, but the other party seemed to hide his aura, making it difficult for him to distinguish.

Xie Tian's slender fingers tapped lightly on the table, Song Yuexi lowered his head, and saw him write a word on the table with tea: "Devil."

Mozu?It's not that Songyuexi has never faced the demons before, but this is the first time he has encountered this kind of monster that can hide his own demonic energy, which shows that the opponent's level is not low.

After asking around but no one answered, the man in scarlet sighed softly, and said in disappointment, "It's not interesting."

After speaking, he hugged the qin and flew up to the branch, and he was about to leave.

"Wait!" Suddenly someone came out and shouted eagerly, "There are... some are!"

"Really?" The man in scarlet clothes suddenly turned around, showing a look of surprise, and then flew up to him, looked him up and down, and said with a smile, "Let me see."

The man was still thinking, how to "look"?

The next moment, the hand of the man in scarlet clothes who was playing the piano suddenly plunged into his chest!Blood explosion!Before he could react, the other party had already pulled out his heart!

His heart was still beating, but his body crashed to the ground, spattering a lot of blood.

Everyone's expressions changed!A flash of sword light instantly shot out from the private room of Tianzi [-], and the man in scarlet clothes immediately erected his guqin to block the strong sword energy, while the other hand grabbed the hot, bloody heart, and brought it to his mouth to lick it. for a moment.Then he frowned again, and threw away in disgust.

This scene was horrifying, and screams of terror resounded in the garden, and the guests fled in panic, all running towards the exit.The man in scarlet twirled the guqin, plucked the string with one hand, and the sound waves vibrated, turning the peach blossoms all over the garden into red blood butterflies.

It wasn't until this moment that the strong demon energy in his body burst out.

The dark blood butterflies rushed towards everyone, densely wrapped around several people, and devoured them all in the blink of an eye.

A few monks with a higher realm immediately drew their swords and rushed towards them, but before they got close, the scarlet-clothed man transformed into a blood butterfly and disappeared in front of their eyes.

The people in the garden turned their backs on their backs and became a mess.The guests panicked and took out the magic weapons they carried with them, trying to fight against the blood butterfly, but they could only resist for a while, and could not hurt the root.

Xue Die gathered into a few figures, wantonly attacking the monks present, Xie Tian rushed out with the shining glass bottle tied around his waist, and swung his sword to save people, Xue Die hurriedly avoided, not daring to get close to its light.

Songyuexi followed beside him, cutting off a few figures transformed from blood butterflies, but they quickly gathered elsewhere.

The man in scarlet hid among the blood butterflies, like a ghost, in the blink of an eye, he took out another heart.

He sniffed and licked, still frowning dissatisfiedly.Then the five fingers gathered together, and with a hard pinch, the heart exploded into blood mist in his hands, and as he took a deep breath, he absorbed it all.

The blood butterflies covered the sky and the moon, and everyone was unbearably disturbed.Songyuexi flew up to the branch, holding the long sword horizontally, raised the fingers of his right hand, and wiped it on the edge of the sword. He quickly drew a talisman on the sword with blood, and then raised a breath and slashed in the air, causing the entire Qinghui Terrace to fly. Shooting, it collapsed, and the bloodthirsty butterflies all turned back to pink and white peach blossoms in an instant, everyone's pressure was relieved!

This move consumed too much spiritual power, and Songyuexi became unstable and fell from the branch.

Xie Tian immediately flew forward and caught him.

The man in scarlet flitted into the air, stepped on a flying flower, stood in the air, then flipped his hands and fingers, and quickly plucked the strings, popping out dense red sound waves.Song Yuexi pushed Xie Tian far away, and danced his sword quickly, breaking the sharp sound waves one by one.

After dozens of moves, the scarlet-clothed man moved slowly, Songyuexi took advantage of his exhaustion, pulled his left hand, gathered a lot of peach blossoms, and attacked him violently.

The peach blossoms exploded into the air, and thunder erupted. The man in scarlet vomited a mouthful of blood and fell straight down. All the monks rushed on him.

The figure of the scarlet-clothed man was distorted, he hid several people in a row, and then carried the piano with one hand, and rushed towards Xie Tian who seemed to be the lowest in the encirclement with all his strength.

Song Yuexi's heart tightened, and she roared: "Get out of the way!"

Xie Tian stood firm, neither dodging nor dodging.Holding the long sword in his hand, with awe-inspiring eyes, he suddenly released a breath-taking coercion.Then he swung his sword casually from bottom to top. At that moment, a golden sword mark suddenly appeared between his eyebrows.This unpretentious sword was so powerful that it split the night directly, and cut off the arm of the man in scarlet cloth! !

The scarlet-clothed man let go of Guqin, and blood rained from the broken arm. He let out a shrill scream, and then turned into a blood butterfly, and quickly fled into the wind.

"Chasing!" Xie Tian gave a low shout, and rushed out immediately.

Songyuexi followed closely behind.

He looked at Xie Tian's back, and four words came to his mind——

Suppression... Suppression boss? ? ?
