Chapter 123 Sikong enters Tianqi, Yanzhao returns to Lingnan
Chapter 123 Sikong enters Tianqi, Yanzhao returns to Lingnan
Tianqi Forbidden Palace, Imperial Observatory.
Qi Tianchen, the director of the Imperial Observatory with snow-white hair, was meditating with his eyes closed on a cushion in the hall when he heard a faint sound of footsteps in the distance.
"Sass, rustle..."
Someone came over on the fallen leaves, and Qi Tianchen opened his eyes suddenly:
"Who?"
The man who came was a middle-aged scholar in a blue robe. He had handsome eyebrows and a gentle expression, and looked as if he was bathed in the spring breeze.
"National Master, it's me!"
The Confucian scholar laughed out loud and said as he stood behind Qi Tianchen.
Qi Tianchen suddenly stood up, a breeze driven by his true energy surrounded him, and then he turned around.
"Shanqian Academy, Chen Ru?"
It turned out that this middle-aged Confucian scholar was Chen Ru, who came to replace Li Changsheng as the chief academic officer of the Jixia Academy.
Chen Ru's strength is equally strong. Although not as strong as Li Changsheng, he has also reached the late stage of the Great Freedom Realm. He has superb swordsmanship and can be called a true sword immortal.
He is quite similar to Xie Xuan. Both became sword immortals through reading and practicing, but the latter failed to show his strength in the later period.
All of this was carefully arranged by Li Changsheng, because in a few days, it would be the day when he would regain his youth through the Dachun technique.
By then, Li Changsheng will lose all his internal strength, and he will travel around with Baili Dongjun.
……
Chen Ru smiled slightly, clapped his hands and said:
"Before I entered Tianqi, I heard that Mr. Li from the academy entered the palace, and you, the Imperial Master, were repelled by him with one blow and were injured. Is this true?"
Qi Tianchen sighed softly:
"Alas... never mind, never mind!"
Chen Ru looked at Qi Tianchen, who was full of shame, and said sarcastically:
"The Imperial Master is indeed a master of the Half-Step Divine Wandering. He was defeated by Mr. Li without even making a single move, and even made Emperor Tai'an believe it! I admire you!"
Qi Tianchen looked a little embarrassed:
"Mr. Chen, please stop making fun of me. I wonder why you are here?"
Chen Ru's expression was gentle:
"Of course I am returning a favor to Mr. Li, and I am also visiting the Imperial Master!"
Qi Tianchen was moved when he heard this, and couldn't help but admire Li Changsheng even more. It turned out that he had arranged all this in advance.
"Visiting an old man like me? Sir, stop joking."
Chen Ru bowed and saluted:
"No! The Imperial Master and I are of the same mind. We came here to meet each other so that we can look after each other in the future! Farewell!"
Before Qi Tianchen could speak, Chen Ru tiptoed and disappeared in the main hall of the Imperial Observatory.
……
"Xu..."
The young man reined in the majestic green-maned horse under his crotch and stopped it steadily on the bustling streets of Apocalypse City.
"What a huge Apocalypse City!"
The young man dismounted, picked up his bag, and drew a Silver Moon Spear from the saddle. He looked around at the bustling Apocalypse City and couldn't help but exclaim in amazement.
This was a dusty young man with his hair tied up in a high bun and roughly tied with leather.
His brow bones are higher than those of ordinary people, his thick black eyebrows slant into his temples, his eyes are lively, and his every move always exudes the demeanor of a wandering roamer!
Needless to say, it was Sikong Changfeng who came all the way from Yaowang Valley!
Sikong Changfeng led the horse and soon found the small watchtower.
After entering the small watchtower, the hall was full of guests, and they all turned to look at him.
There are indeed many people from the martial arts world who come to the Diaolou Mansion, but most of them are children of aristocratic families and disciples of major sects. It is rare to see a wanderer like Sikong Changfeng!
Sikong Changfeng ignored everyone's gazes, looked around, and finally found an empty seat in the corner, so he walked straight over.
Next to the empty seat sat an elegant middle-aged man, who was none other than Chen Ru from the Imperial Observatory.
He looked at Sikong Changfeng with some curiosity. Seeing that he had a good appearance, he felt a bit favorable towards him.
Just as Sikong Changfeng was about to put the bag on the table, he heard Chen Ru whispering beside him:
"That table is occupied. If you don't mind, how about sitting at the same table with me?"
Sikong Changfeng was a little confused. He looked at the empty seat and then at Chen Ru:
"People? It's haunted, isn't there anyone here?"
Chen Ru was amused by his words:
"I mean, this table is already reserved!"
Sikong Changfeng felt that he had made a fool of himself and his handsome face turned red. He put his spear and baggage next to Chen Ru's table and sat down.
At this time, the waiter brought a pot of wine and placed it in front of Chen Ru, and put down two wine glasses at the same time:
"Sir, your wine - Sangluo!"
Sikong Changfeng was delighted when he heard this:
"Sang Luo? A friend of mine can also make this wine!"
Chen Ru smiled and filled two glasses with wine, and pushed them in front of Sikong Changfeng:
"Oh? If that's the case, why not try the wine from Diao Lou Xiao Zhu first!"
Sikong Changfeng did not refuse, he drank the cup in one gulp and then closed his eyes and smacked his lips:
"I feel... this wine is far from the one brewed by my friend!"
Chen Ru smiled when he heard this:
"So, your friend is also a master brewer?"
Sikong Changfeng shook his head:
"Not really, he's a drunkard. I don't want this wine. Waiter, bring me a pot of something else!"
The waiter just heard that Sikong Changfeng dared to steal the wine from Lou Xiaozhu, and asked with a cold voice with a look of disdain:
"What kind of wine would you like, sir?"
Sikong Changfeng raised his hand and said, "Qiu Lu Bai!"
……
Jixia Academy.
Wen Yanzhao was packing his bags and put several hundred taels of gold and various top-grade poisons exchanged from the system in the storage space.
It was obvious that the one cubic meter space had been filled up by him, so the rest of the clothes and other things had to be put into the bag.
Baili Dongjun sat in front of the table in Wen Yanzhao's bedroom. The table was full of gold ingots. He looked at the gold in front of him and was not happy. He pouted and said:
"Cousin, when will you come back from Lingnan this time? Mr. Li said that he would take me and Sister Luoxia out to travel in a few days. What if you can't find me by then?"
Wen Yanzhao packed his bag without looking back:
"Don't worry, Xiao Baili. Your cousin will be back soon. I will find a way to find you then! Keep the money on the table as pocket money!"
"Buy whatever you want, and buy a set of wine-making supplies. Besides...you and Mr. Li will need money when you go traveling!"
Baili Dongjun felt a little disappointed. He had just seen Ye Dingzhi off, and now his cousin was leaving him too. There was some disappointment in his eyes:
"That's great... cousin, please go back and say hello to my uncle and grandpa for me. Remember to tell grandpa that I haven't fed Xiaobai (Bai Liuli) since he was in Chaisang City. I guess he has returned to Lingnan by himself now!"
"Remember to feed Xiaobai well and tell him I miss him very much. He should be hibernating in a month..."
"Alas, now I'm alone in the school... I'm a little unhappy!"
Wen Yanzhao tied the package tightly, turned around and sat in front of Baili Dongjun to comfort him:
"Be good, Xiao Baili, your cousin will be back in a month at most."
"Don't worry, Xiaobai knows how to find food. There are many bad guys in Chaisang City. I'm afraid it will have indigestion!"
"You need to practice your Qiu Shui Jue diligently. Take this book of Ling Bo Wei Bu, and practice it diligently when you have nothing to do!"
"Even if you encounter an unbeatable opponent in the martial arts world, you can easily escape!"
"Your internal strength is still shallow now. I have many advanced techniques. Once you reach the Ninth Heaven Realm, I will teach you more."
As he spoke, Wen Yanzhao took out a roll of sheepskin wrapped in silk from his arms and handed it to Baili Dongjun.
Baili Dongjun took the parchment scroll and nodded:
"Okay, wait for my cousin to come back. Maybe I will have cultivated to the Fuyao realm! Then will you set off today?"
Wen Yanzhao touched Baili Dongjun's little head:
"Yes, I have to go find someone later, and then I will go back to Lingnan!"
Baili Dongjun stood up:
"Then I'll take my cousin out of town!"
Wen Yanzhao also stood up and picked up his bag:
"Xiao Baili, don't go anywhere in the school. There are probably many people out there who covet you. Remember what your cousin said. Don't believe anyone except Mr. Li and Lei Mengsha!"
"Although Lei Mengsha is a chatterbox, he is a very good person. You will be traveling with Mr. Li in a few days. Remember to be more careful during the trip!"
Baili Dongjun pouted:
"Okay, then cousin, please be careful along the way!"
……
After bidding farewell to Baili Dongjun and everyone in the academy, Wen Yanzhao flew to the 32nd Pavilion of the Music Academy.
Standing at the highest point in Apocalypse City and overlooking the entire city, it is truly magnificent and majestic!
"Who are you? Why did you trespass into the 32nd Pavilion of our Jiaofang?"
Just as Wen Yanzhao was immersed in the beautiful scenery of Tianqi City, a cold voice came to his ears.
Following the sound, I saw a beautiful woman wearing a white veil and a goose yellow long dress walking down from the covered bridge.
Wen Yanzhao bowed and saluted:
"I am Wen Yanzhao from Lingnan, and I can be considered the successor of the Confucian Immortal Gu Chen!"
Hearing this, the beautiful woman was startled, stumbled back a few steps, and her pupils trembled:
"You...say it again!"
Wen Yanzhao smiled:
"You must be Senior Yueluo, the head of the Thirty-second Pavilion of the Musical Orchestra. The Confucian Immortal Guchen once saved me in the Peach Blossom Land of Qiandong City."
"He passed on all his life's skills to me, so... I say that I am his successor!"
Yueluo looked at Wen Yanzhao in disbelief, her eyes sparkling with tears:
"He...he's still alive? Right?"
Wen Yanzhao nodded.
Yue Luo could no longer hold back her tears, and the white veil was instantly soaked with tears:
"Then where is he now?"
Yueluo asked while choking with sobs. Wen Yanzhao said softly:
"Senior Gu Chen is currently in Lingnan, at the Wen family."
Yueluo was trembling all over, and her voice was filled with tears:
"He's still alive! That's great... That's good, Lingnan is far away... It doesn't matter, I can go find him!"
Wen Yanzhao shook his head:
"No, Senior Gu Chen has already passed away in the eyes of the world. Pavilion Master must not go looking for him. If the secret that he is still alive is revealed, there will be a lot of trouble!"
Yueluo pondered for a moment, then took out a handkerchief and wiped away her tears:
"Thank you for your reminder, young master. You are right! I was too excited... So why did you come here this time?"
Wen Yanzhao: "I'm sending a message to Senior Gu Chen on behalf of the Pavilion Master. I'm sure you have a lot to say to him."
Yueluo nodded in surprise and said:
"Okay, wait a minute!"
After saying that, he turned and went into the attic.
Soon, Yueluo came to Wen Yanzhao with a letter in one hand and a jade wine pot in the other:
"Mr. Wen, please give this letter and the wine gourd to Gu Chen!"
Wen Yanzhao didn't say much. He reached out to take the internal energy and put it into the storage space.
"this?!"
Yueluo looked at Wen Yanzhao's actions in amazement. The two items disappeared out of thin air before her eyes!
Wen Yanzhao smiled slightly:
"Master, don't panic. This is my technique. Now that I have received your token, I will take my leave!"
Yueluo looked at Wen Yanzhao expectantly:
"Then I'll have to trouble you, young master. When you see Gu Chen, tell him that I'm still waiting for him to marry me in Pavilion 32 of the Music Academy!"
