[Comprehensive] Extreme Night

Chapter 8 Immortal Sword 42

A young man in a white robe is tying his hair in front of the mirror.

The long black hair was neatly gathered into the crown, and the boy's hands were not messed up in the slightest, just like his expression as calm as water.The young man's appearance was not eye-catching, and there was nothing special about him at first glance, but with those black eyes, he suddenly became radiant.It was neither warm nor dead, but there was a kind of serenity in this person's eyes beyond age, reminiscent of a black river flowing quietly in summer nights.

Smoothing out the folds of his robe, the boy was about to leave when he suddenly stopped.There was a hasty knock on the door, "Senior Brother Xuan Zhen! Senior Brother Xuan Zhen!"

The visitor pushed open the door without waiting for his answer.

"Tianqing," the young man, that is, Wu Chen frowned, and then showed a helpless smile, "Are you in trouble again?" The young man who came in did not show his usual expression of being coquettish and joking, but grabbed his hand hand, "Let's go! Let's go see Master!"

"At a time like this, see what Master is doing." Wu Chen didn't move, but pulled his hand away instead.

Seeing his calm expression, Yun Tianqing became even more angry. He grabbed his hand again and said loudly, "How could they do this! Let's go to Master to reason!"

He paused for a moment, then shifted his gaze to the only long sword in the room, "Xi He, it's clearly the brother's sword, why did you give it up!!!"

"No, this is not my sword." Wu Chen said coldly, "Xi He didn't choose me as the host, and I was the one who disappointed Master."

Yun Tianqing choked, and couldn't find anything to refute for a while, "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh I don't care! Those people made you Xihe's host, and they are the ones who are against it now, so why should they!" He pulled Wu Chen wide The sleeves of his clothes revealed those winding and criss-crossing scars, "Senior brother obviously put in so much effort, am I the only one who saw it?"

"I'm sorry, Tianqing," Wu Chen's expression turned warm as he looked at the young man whose eyes suddenly turned red, but he still said slowly, "It can be said that this is not something that can be made up for with hard work... The birth of Yang Shi Yang Ke is another matter of life." People with the fire attribute are so rare, that's why the master asked me to temporarily act as the sword master until he was found, and now that Junior Brother Xuanxiao appears, I should naturally step aside."

"But..." Seeing his calm expression, Yun Tianqing was anxious and angry at the same time.He wanted to say, senior brother, do you know what Qionghua faction is talking about senior brother now?

Brother, do you know why Xi and the change of master were deliberately asked to give away the sword in front of thousands of disciples in the main hall of Qionghua Palace?

Brother, do you know how much loss and... shame this is for a sword repairer?

The young man raised his head, looked at those calm black eyes, and was suddenly speechless.How could Senior Brother Xuan Zhen, who was many years earlier than him, not know these things?

But compared to Xuan Xiao's pure yang body, senior brother Xuan Zhen is just a skyfire spirit root... It is also a talent, but it is very different.and……

"Okay, it's time," Wu Chen put his hand on the young man's shoulder, comforting him gently, "Let's go."

Yun Tianqing didn't speak, he looked at his senior brother who fell behind Wu Chen.The boy's back was tall and straight, but he staggered slightly the moment he stepped out of the threshold.His eye sockets became hot, and he quickly lowered his head.

Moreover, the senior brother's legs... Xihe is unruly, the yang flames enter the body, and the meridians change... This is probably the biggest reason why the master arranged all this.

What kind of spiritual root of heaven fire... The young man clenched his fists tightly. He heard that Xuan Zhen almost died of high fever when he was young, and later he had to join the Taoist sect with his family separately, all because of this.

"What skyfire spiritual root..." He murmured, his eyes followed the person who almost hid all his emotions, who was so calm that he seemed to have no sorrow or joy, and finally shed tears.

Hearing the faint sobbing sound behind him, Wu Chen stopped in his footsteps and didn't look back.He sighed deeply in his heart, Qionghua is so big, this junior brother who has only been together for a year, is the first person to shed tears for him.For others, there are regrets and indifference, but most of them are just gloating.

As the head disciple of the sect, he was born with the spiritual root of heavenly fire, and he has been making rapid progress in practicing the fire system... This is something that people hate, and with the addition of the Xihe sword...but deep down in his heart , these are not big things, losing the Xihe sword, just looking for another one, the legs and feet are inconvenient, and it is just a matter of practicing the skill of controlling the sword. As for losing the status and being ridiculed... In Wu Chen's view, those who only need You don't need to pay attention to the remarks of the guys who can be stabbed to death with a single sword.He is a person who has even experienced such things as killing his own family with his own hands, how could he be upset by such a trivial matter.

His peace, indeed, was true peace.

The only thing that annoyed him was that even though he was the first disciple of the sect master, after this incident, the position of sect master might also change hands.Losing the opportunity to enter the sect's forbidden area to check the classics, how can he find a way to restrain his physique?So why did he spend many years respecting his teachers, caring for his juniors, pretending to be a hypocritical gentleman, and enduring so much that he didn't kill people in the Qionghua faction?

Sure enough, do we still have to wait for Qionghua to be bloodbathed after his strength matures?

The people waiting in the Qionghua Palace did not know that this young man who stepped into the palace had such a terrifying thought in his mind.They just saw that the young man in white robe was holding the Xihe Sword in his hand with a calm face.His expression didn't change in any way because of everyone's gaze.

Because of his leg ailment, Wu Chen's walking speed was not fast, and his posture was not graceful, but gradually, those people who were whispering and laughing in low voices all quieted down, and a look of bewilderment even appeared on their faces expression.

Zong Lian, who was present at the ceremony, couldn't help but let out a sigh, and said to Taiqing who was standing beside him, "This son...it's a pity."

Taiqing didn't speak, his eyes were falling on another person kneeling on the hall.The difference from Wu Chen was that the man kneeling in the hall had a colder aura, a handsome face, and a natural vermilion pattern on his forehead.

Withdrawing his gaze, Taiqing said calmly, "Without sacrifice, how can we bind the demon world, and how can we talk about ascending to immortality?"

Kneeling at the side with Xuan Xiao is a woman with a clear face, who is Suyu who will be awarded the Wangshu Sword together.Wu Chen suddenly remembered that it was this Suyu who made Tianqing, that idiot, foolishly say "beautiful and ugly, all are bones under the skin..." and because of this, he was thrown to Sihuigu for a long time.

If the person he likes can be selected as Wangshu Sword Master, that kid should be very happy.Wu Chen thought so, but he couldn't find Yun Tianqing's shadow in the crowd.

For such an unchangeable matter, it is really that kid's temper to not attend in a fit of anger.Wu Chen's gaze softened slightly, but suddenly he met a pair of black eyes.

Xuan Xiao was looking at him, and there was a hint of complexity in his usually cold eyes.

Although they went up the mountain together, to Xuan Zhen, Yun Tianqing and Xuan Xiao were obviously close or distant.And Yun Tianqing, who was not big or small, who often caused troubles but always loved to pester him about various things, was obviously closer.For Xuan Xiao, he just fulfilled his brother's responsibility and provided some help at the very beginning.After all, not everyone is like Yun Tianqing who regards the rules of the family as nothing, and is lazy and careless in cultivation. Xuan Xiao is simply the other extreme of Yun Tianqing, rigorous and self-respecting, and Wu Chen doesn't need to worry about it at all.

However, because of his terrifying talent and cold, arrogant and reticent personality, I am afraid that Xuan Xiao has no friends in Qionghua.Regarding the change of master of Xi Hejian this time, some juniors and younger sisters who are close to him will inevitably complain. "Xuan Xiao, who is labeled "arrogant and unfeeling", is even more innocent.

Although Yun Tianqing and Xuan Xiao had discord, but when they first joined the sect, how could they not have some friendship when they ate and lived together?But because of this incident, Yun Tianqing almost broke with Xuan Xiao.

However, what everyone sees is only the superficial scenery.Is there anyone who knows better than Wu Chen who has experienced the price and pain of becoming the sword master of Xihe?

Wu Chen stopped in his tracks.

Standing at the forefront, Taiqing had already started talking, to the effect that Xuan Zhen was very good but his talent was limited and he couldn't let Xi He recognize him as the master, so in order to prevent the sword from getting dusty, he voluntarily handed Xi He over to his junior brother Xuan Xiao...

Wu Chen was standing and Xuan Xiao was kneeling, but the eyes of the crowd seemed to be reversed.Xuan Xiao frowned slightly, the complexion in his eyes became more intense, Wu Chen looked at him, and suddenly said, "Junior Brother Xuan Xiao, why are you frowning?"

Everyone's attention was on Taiqing, and Wu Chen's voice was so low that no one could hear him except Xuan Xiao.

Xuan Xiao didn't speak, as if he was surprised that he spoke at this time.

Wu Chen smiled slightly at him, "Speaking of which, I'm the one who hurt junior brother. Tianqing made a slip of the tongue for a while, so please don't take it to heart."

Xuan Xiao's eyes flickered slightly, thinking of Yun Tianqing's words, "You even want to take away Brother Xuan Zhen's sword, you really deserve to be an unintentional person!"

"No." He avoided his eyes and said in a low but firm tone, "Xihe is my wish."

"Without sacrifice, how can you bind the demon world, how can you talk about becoming an immortal?" Taiqing said to him like this, but even if there were no such words, wouldn't he have no respect for Xihe...

After a pause, Xuan Xiao said, "I... am ashamed of my brother."

Surprise flashed in Wu Chen's eyes.Immediately, Xuan Xiao heard the man standing in front of him laugh softly, as gentle and without any haze as before.

"With your words, what regret does Xuan Zhen have?"

Taiqing's words stopped at some point, and under the gazes of everyone, Xuan Zhen, who was forced to lose his sword, was not unwilling to resent him, and handed Xihe, which he had been holding in his hands, to Xuan Xiao's hands.Xi He's sword was red, as if it was burning with flames all the time.

In this ceremony, no matter from which point of view, Xuan Zhen was completely defeated.He lost the possibility of being the head of the sect, lost his reputation and status, and even lost his leg for Xi He.But the man looked as if nothing had happened, calmly even with a slight smile.

At this time, no one thinks he is a loser.It was a determination derived from intuition, which appeared in the mind before rational judgment was made.

Except Xuan Xiao.He was in a daze because of Wu Chen's last words.

"However, why does everyone think Xi He is my best sword?"
