[Lu Xiaofeng Sword III] The Emei faction is playing a big game of chess

Ten days ago, Wanmei Villa.

"Since the news of the decisive battle between you and Ximen came out, I really didn't expect that there would be a day when we would sit down and drink together in Wanmei Villa."

Lu Xiaofeng picked up a porcelain white wine glass, feeling a little emotional.

"I've never thought about it either." Ye Gucheng looked at the clear liquid in the glass, and gently stroked the long sword on the table with his fingers.

Looking at Ye Gucheng who was sitting in front of him almost intact, Lu Xiaofeng clicked his tongue in amazement, then turned to ask Ximen Chuuxue on the other side, "Did your sword really hit City Lord Ye?"

Ximen Chuuxue gave him a cold look, "With a sword piercing the heart, there is no way to survive."

"But City Lord Ye is still sitting here alive." After taking a sip of wine, Lu Xiaofeng shook his head and sighed, "I never thought that there is such a miraculous thing in the world."

The corners of Ye Gucheng's lips twitched slightly, "Bi Lu Dan."

"Indeed, Biludan."

Lu Xiaofeng put down his cup, "Master Ye, there is one thing I don't know."

"You ask."

"You should have noticed that Zhiran has discovered your plan, and you know that she will definitely stop it, even if she likes you. But why didn't you stop her?"

Ye Gucheng handed the wine glass to his lips and took a sip, looked up at Lu Xiaofeng, a strange smile slowly appeared on his lips, "Why should I stop you?"

Lu Xiaofeng was slightly taken aback, then sighed, "It seems that my previous guess was correct, you did it on purpose."

Ye Gucheng swirled the wine in his glass and drank it in one gulp.

"You deliberately revealed the news to let Zhiran know that you were going to rebel, and then let her appear at the most appropriate time to stop you. You used all your strength when you competed with her because you had already calculated the time. We should have noticed the accident in half an hour and rushed to the South Study Room. Zhiran's swordsmanship was taught by you personally, and based on your understanding of her, you naturally know that she can definitely last for more than half an hour under your hands. And that By then, Simon and I should have arrived."

Seeing that the man in white was still drinking with his head down, Lu Xiaofeng took a deep breath and continued, "Ximen admits that your swordsmanship is better than his, but you have fought against Zhiran for a long time before, and if you propose to compete with Ximen, you will You can die under his sword in a legitimate way. Once you die, you will accomplish Ximen's sword, and you will also achieve Zhiran."

"Dugu Yihe wants to pass on the position of head of Emei to Zhiran, and her senior brothers and sisters will definitely not have any opinions on her favor, but it is difficult for others to say, and the words in the world will definitely not be pleasant. Before Zhiran Although she has solved many major cases that have attracted the attention of the world with us, she is still too young, and most people in the world still focus on us. Zhiran's status and reputation in the world are not enough for her to take over. The position of the head of Emei. But after the Forbidden Summit, the resourcefulness and ability that Zhiran showed here, especially her appearance at the critical moment to stop your plot, will make her fame in the world reach its peak. Even The royal family will all owe her a favor. And she caught your sword flying fairy and supported it for half an hour under your full strength, which is enough to make her sword dance famous all over the world. After this battle, Ye Zhiran took over as the Emei palm There will no longer be any resistance to the position of the gate."

Lu Xiaofeng looked at the man who gracefully picked up the wine bottle and poured the wine, "But there is one thing I don't understand. When I just arrived at the South Study Room, your murderous intent towards Zhiran was real, and I almost thought that your sword Really wanted to kill her."

Ye Gucheng's hand holding the wine glass froze, his slender eyelashes drooped, and Shen Mo said lightly, "She once said that if I die, she will commit suicide."

Lu Xiaofeng opened his eyes wide in surprise, and then smiled wryly, "This is indeed what Zhiran would say, and it is indeed what she would do... So you deliberately made her think that you were going to kill her? With her The character will indeed not despise the life of a person who wants to kill him."

Glancing at the swordsman in white who was drinking alone, Lu Xiaofeng smiled slightly, "But you still missed a little bit."

Ye Gucheng slowly pursed his lips, "Bi Lu Dan."

"Indeed. Since Zhiran fed you Biludan, it means that she was aware of your intention at the last moment."

"How did you see it?"

On Emei Mountain, Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine in his hand and looked at the pink-clothed girl on the opposite side, even he didn't notice it at that time.

Ye Zhiran tapped on the stone table with her slender fingers, and glanced at him lightly, "You know, men judge things mostly by looking and analyzing them with their eyes, while women judge things mostly by intuition. Unfortunately, you are a man and I am a woman."

Lu Xiaofeng was a little surprised, "Just relying on intuition?"

"Of course it's not just based on intuition." Ye Zhiran gave him a sideways glance, then raised her eyes to look at the old tree beside the stone table. "Tell me, how likely is it that a newcomer who hasn't been in the rivers and lakes for a long time is hunted all the way from the southwest to the capital by the cooperation of the No. [-] assassination organization in the rivers and lakes and the dead men of the palace, and finally escapes into the city unscathed?"

Lu Xiaofeng was startled for a moment, then immediately came to his senses, raised his eyes and gave her a deep look, "Almost none."

"Yeah, almost none." Ye Zhiran turned her head and looked at him with fixed eyes, "Then tell me, I was able to survive to the capital under the joint assassination of the assassins in Tsing Yi Building and the dead men of Nanwangfu, is it really just because of luck? ?”

Of course not, Lu Xiaofeng said silently with downcast eyes.

"The dead soldiers in the Nanwang Mansion and the killers in the Tsing Yi Building don't have nothing to eat." Ye Zhiran pulled a sarcasm smile, "My assassination all the way from the southwest to the capital was arranged by someone. "

"Among the people who chased me down, there were much more people from Tsing Yi Lou than those from Nanwang Mansion. Moreover, they all came in batches. The strength of each group happened to be a line higher than mine at that time. You can defeat the enemy with a single stroke, and you won't be seriously injured if you try to escape."

This is simply leveling!

"Although I didn't bother to think about it when I was hunted down, but after I arrived in the capital, I looked back and thought about it, and I understood." Eyes, "In the whole rivers and lakes, who is so familiar with my strength, and will make such arrangements for me after careful calculation, who else?"

Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "Not only allowed you to successfully take over the Tsing Yi Building, but also improved your strength along the way, and also created an illusion that he wants to kill you. Killing three birds with one stone, City Lord Ye... I really admire it."

"When he made this arrangement, he probably thought that I saw the letter on Mount Emei, and after guessing that he was the mastermind behind Qingyi Building, he was only concerned about being sad. I have the mood to speculate on the meaning behind his actions." Ye Zhiran snorted coldly, "He underestimates a girl's persistence in certain things too much!"

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "I never thought that you would still be in the mood to think about those at that time."

"So you men will never understand what is the most important thing to a girl!" At that time, she no longer had the mood to take care of her own feelings.What about being angry?So what?She wholeheartedly planned and hoped that only he could survive.Even if he really wanted to kill him, she still hoped that he would survive...

Fortunately...he wasn't.

Lowering her head, the slender fingers of the girl in pink flicked the double swords on the table, "The most powerful of my Gongsun Jianwu is the Gongsun swordsmanship. The sword spirit is universal, the sword heart is bright, and the sword turns to the clouds. It is the realm and the sword move. The sword intent of my ape master swordsmanship was understood by Ye Gucheng for me. This set of swordsmanship is also the one he is most familiar with among all my swordsmanship. He knows exactly how to use my swordsmanship. It has always been my routine to follow the sword qi and Changjiang River in a hurry. But that day, when I was fighting him with this swordsmanship, I missed something later. sword."

Lu Xiaofeng was slightly taken aback, and the corners of Ye Zhiran's lips curled up slightly like a naughty child, "I joined the Sword Master Tiandi after the Fanyin Jijie, so it was half a second slower than usual. And someone like Ye Gucheng who uses a sword A master can do a lot in half a second."

Lu Xiaofeng sighed, "Including killing you."

"Including killing me."

"But you're still sitting here."

Ye Zhiran smiled, "So I won."

"Zhiran," Lu Xiaofeng looked at her helplessly, "this is very dangerous." If Ye Gucheng really wanted to kill her, then she would be dead by now.

Ye Zhiran lowered her eyes lightly, her eyelashes half covered, "If Ye Gucheng really wants to kill me, then I misjudged the person, and I deserve to die under his sword."

Lu Xiaofeng smiled wryly, "I should be thankful that Ye Gucheng didn't really want to kill you, did he?"

Ye Zhiran snorted softly and turned her head.

"At that time, his sword should have pierced my heart. Once I was hit by the sword, I would definitely die. At that time, I had no strength to stop it. There was no obstacle, but the sword that was sure to hit was missed by half an inch. This little boy He can fool that idiot Nan Wangshizi but not me. He doesn't want to kill me at all, but he pretends to kill me. Tell me, what else could he be doing?"

Lu Xiaofeng drank the wine in the glass and sighed, "Because he is ready to die."

"Since he wants to die, I won't let him die." Ye Zhiran plucked the tassel on Mo Xie's sword, speaking angrily. "Who does he think he is! He arranged it and I have to accept it gratefully, but I don't!"

"But haven't you come back to take over as the head?" Lu Xiaofeng complained silently.

Ye Zhiran glared at him angrily, "I did it for that piece of Jiejian Rock!"

"..." Sure enough, he knew... Lu Xiaofeng supported his forehead, "Zhiran, do you really intend to keep that rock at the foot of the mountain standing?"

"nonsense!"

"Are you really planning to stay on Mount Emei for the rest of your life and not see Ye Gucheng?"

"Humph!"

Well, it really is unreasonable for a girl to get angry.Lu Xiaofeng put his forehead with a smile and poured himself a glass of wine.Looking at the pink-clothed girl who was still full of anger, a warm feeling flashed in her dark eyes.

In fact, he had discussed this issue with Ye Gucheng at the beginning.

"She erected a piece of Jiejian Rock at the foot of Mount Emei, so you really don't want to go to Mount Emei? Are you wasting your time like this?"

Ye Gucheng gently stroked the hilt of the sword with his fingers, "Shi Yan, the head of Wudang, is not as good as before when he came in. Wudang will choose a new head in a year at most."

Lu Xiaofeng turned the wine glass around and turned to look at him, "As the head of Emei, Zhiran will definitely attend the succession ceremony of the head of Wudang. Will you go to Wudang Mountain then?"

Ye Gucheng nodded in acquiescence.

But there is also Jie Jianyan on Wudang Mountain, and Emei still learned from Wudang... Lu Xiaofeng looked at Ye Gucheng who was drinking calmly, but finally did not say these words.He knew that Baiyun City was going to one place, and no one in the world could stop it.The Jiejian Rock on Mount Emei was able to stop him because it was set up by Ye Zhiran himself.She didn't want him to go to Mount Emei, so he wouldn't.And Wudang... Since Ye Gucheng doesn't even pay attention to the royal family that holds the supreme power, why should he be afraid of a Wudang faction that has long since lost its former glory.

Lu Xiaofeng could only sigh, and silently prayed for his old friend in his heart, hoping that when the time came, City Lord Ye would take the face of Wudang's century-old school and not go too far.

On Mount Emei, Lu Xiaofeng is still making the final effort for the harmonious relationship between the Emei Sect and Baiyun City.Lu Xiaoji felt that this is such a good thing that benefits the world, the people and society!However, the new head of the Emei faction was quite unwilling to cooperate.

"Zhiran, you even gave City Lord Ye Bi Lu Dan a fetish, now that everything is over, what are you still awkward about?"

The girl in pink turned her head to the sky and ignored him.

Lu Xiaofeng continued to work hard, "You and City Lord Ye are clearly in love, and he sent his confidant subordinates to Emei to hire you after his injury, and announced to the whole world that he wants to marry you. Isn't this a good situation?"

"I know that you were hurt when you were angry, but you also know the situation at that time. The arrangement of Lord Ye is the best for you and him. So..."

"Lu Xiaofeng." Ye Zhiran, who had been persuading him but kept silent, suddenly interrupted him.The eyes of a certain chick who spoke dryly and without any effect suddenly lit up, and then saw the girl across from him looking back at him lightly, "If you really want to persuade me, you should find a girl .”

"Huh?" Lu Xiaofeng was taken aback.

"You are a man, and Ye Gucheng is also a man. So you will never understand what I am really angry about."

What she was angry with was never the suffering she suffered before and after the decisive battle!

The man in Tsing Yi was silent for a while, and then said, "Then Zhiran, what are you angry about?"

Ye Zhiran lowered her head and poured a glass of wine, and drank it in one gulp. "Do you think the current situation is good? Ye Gucheng's arrangement is right?"

"...I really can't think of a better way."

Ye Gucheng's series of arrangements before the decisive battle, while enhancing her own strength and prestige, pushed Tsing Yi Lou and Baiyun City behind her, allowing Ye Zhiran, who was just one of many ordinary rookies before the decisive battle, to die overnight. In between, he became a powerful and decent head of a famous family.Such a calculation that spared no effort was just so that if he really died, she would have the strength to protect herself.

After all, Lu Xiaofeng is a man, so he will feel that Ye Gucheng's arrangement is the best.However, no woman in this world would want such a "good".

Until now, thinking of the night when Ye Gucheng died on September [-]th, she and Gong Jiu were sitting outside the imperial city.Even though she knew that Bi Ludan had the ability to bring back the dead, on the night when he really died, the coldness and chill of that night made her feel so cold that her soul almost froze when she recalled it.

"...Zhiran." Lu Xiaofeng sighed deeply as he looked at the girl who lowered her head, pinched her fingers deeply into her palm, and her body was trembling slightly. "In any case, all the arrangements made by City Lord Ye were for you..."

The girl in pink suddenly stood up and stared down at him.

"For me? Really for me? Could it be that he can't live well?! Have you ever thought that without Bilu Dan, he would really be dead now! So dead that grass is growing on the grave now!"

"Zhiran..."

"What's the use of him giving me the position of head of Emei? What's the use of giving me Qingyi Building and Baiyun City?!" Her voice became agitated, with faint sobbing.

"I obviously... I only hope that he survives... I only hope that he survives..." She lowered her head, her voice became softer and weaker, and even the sound of crying was so small that she could hardly hear it.

Lu Xiaofeng has never seen Ye Zhiran like this, the little girl in his memory is always wanton and bright, just like the warm sunshine in March, making people feel happy just looking at it.But now, this little girl who looked like sunshine was crying in front of him, crying very sadly and aggrieved.For a moment, he felt that Ye Gucheng should teach him a lesson.

Of course, the most important thing now is that the little girl in front of her is still crying. Let’s not talk about how the Emei faction will react if they see this situation. Crying, he probably really wants to use his two fingers to try the Flying Immortal of Heaven after Master Ye's mastery of swordsmanship.What's more, he himself didn't want to see Ye Zhiran cry.

Lu Xiaofeng stood up and walked to her side, put his palms gently on her heart and rubbed her heart, and said softly, "The head of the dignified Emei Sword Sect is crying like a little girl who hasn't grown up. It's not pretty to cry."

Ye Zhiran sobbed a few times, raised her hand like a child, wiped her eyes with her sleeve, and stared at him, "You don't care!"

"Alright, I don't care about you." Lu Xiaofeng reluctantly pulled her hand that wiped her tears, and handed her a silk handkerchief. "Isn't Ye Gucheng still dead? Be good, don't cry."

Ye Zhiran took Sipa, wiped her eyes messily, turned her head and muttered in a low voice, "I'm crying because he didn't die!"

"...You mean if City Lord Ye is really dead, you won't cry?"

The girl in pink paused, and said softly, "If he really died, who should I cry for?"
