Chapter 112 Chapter 112 You look a lot like your father. …
"These little guys are quite perceptive." In the corner of the inn, Citroen chuckled. He raised his hand, and an ice-blue spiritual power gathered above his palm.
"What are you doing?" Xue Qing asked.
"Scare these three." After Citroen said this, he moved his fingers, and the ball of spiritual power quickly "jumped" from the palm of his hand to the floor, and "jumped" all the way out, so fast that it only left an afterimage on the human retina.
Citroën did this deliberately for Jiang Yan and others to see, and the angle was also specially chosen. Except for them, no one noticed the blue and white light flashing from the shadows.
Xue Qing looked at the three young men not far away whose expressions became increasingly solemn, then turned back to look at her husband.
"...Are you helping Lan'er get back her dignity?"
"Madam, please don't talk nonsense." Citroen said righteously, "I am just reminding them as a senior to be vigilant at all times."
Xue Qing: “…”
Xue Qing frowned: "Don't go too far. Look carefully, the young man in white clothes holding what looks like the Wanggui Sword has some similarities to my second brother."
He might really be Jiang Qingsui’s son.
“It’s a bit like that.”
Citroen waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, Madam. I'm just trying to scare them. I won't hurt them."
Xue Qing: "What if he really is your nephew, and he gets scared by you..."
Citroen said flatly: "Impossible. If he is really Jiang Qingsui's son, how can he be so timid!"
The other end.
Jiang Yan retracted his gaze: "It is a sphere formed by spiritual power. Moreover, it can 'choose' who to see it. Except for us, no one noticed anything unusual."
"It is unexpected that he can materialize invisible spiritual energy to such an extent." Ji Ziheng's face was as gloomy as water. "Young Master, this person is probably not just a cultivator in the early stage of tribulation, it is very likely..."
It could be an old senior who has been in seclusion for a long time.
And in Beizhou, there is only one person who meets the requirements of having a cultivation level above that of transcending tribulation and who will actively look for them - the previous Snow Demon King!
"After you beat up the younger one, the older one will come after you." Gu Jingyun sighed, "I thought money could really settle old grudges."
If I had known we would have to fight sooner or later, I wouldn’t have given you even a single spirit stone yesterday.
They made a lot of money for nothing.
"Young Master, we must call for reinforcements immediately! Song Hua is still outside gathering intelligence, I will call him back immediately!"
After Ji Ziheng finished speaking, he turned around and went to look for someone.
“No need for that.” Gu Jingyun said calmly, “A cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage can turn clouds into rain with a flip of his hand. No matter how many lives are lost, it will be in vain.”
"Can--"
"Send a message to Song Hua, asking him to speed up intelligence gathering and come back to assist A'yan. Order people to wait at the border of Beizhou. Ziheng, you take a group of Tianlang Guards and be prepared to assist my evacuation. If you can't win, the worst that can happen is that you turn around and run away." Gu Jingyun said.
Jiang Yan nervously grabbed the man's sleeve.
"Brother, what about me?"
Gu Jingyun stroked his hair, pulled him aside, and coaxed him softly, "The Snow Demon King is coming for me. He always rewards and punishes in moderation, and distinguishes gratitude from resentment. You have no grudges against the Snow Demon King, so he won't hurt you. Stay in the Sword Sect, lead the team into the cave for me, and go find your father."
Jiang Yan: "I'll go with you."
Gu Jingyun: "You can't go."
“Why?!”
"He and the Sword Immortal were close friends who turned into enemies. Who knows if it will bring disaster to his family. Your identity cannot be exposed."
Jiang Yan suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Are you going to leave me alone to face the danger?"
Seeing them gathered in one place and chattering for a long time, Citroen became impatient and shot out another ball of spiritual power, releasing another layer of spiritual pressure.
This time, even the leaders of other sects felt it.
Seeing that the team leader was solemn and silent, the fellow students looked at each other, and although they didn't understand why, they still carefully shut their mouths.
The noisy inn suddenly became much quieter.
No one had spoken at the Jianzong table for a long time.
After a few breaths, Duan Yue asked in a hoarse voice, "Where is Ling Hanzhang?"
Duan Shuang replied, "I went out with Sir Song from the Heavenly Wolf Guard to gather information and have not returned yet."
Someone else said, "Is this senior targeting the Sword Sect specifically?"
Duan Shuang: "Nonsense, it's obvious!"
People from other sects could still whisper to each other, but they were in the center of the vortex and could hardly speak.
Duan Yue: "It must be that person who came to help find a place."
As disciples of the Sword Sect, everyone had heard about how the young master had snatched a large piece of ten thousand year old black ice from Xue Lan a hundred years ago.
At this point I understood what was going on and knew what it was without even hearing the name.
On the other side, Gu Jingyun hardened his heart and wanted Jiang Yan to take everyone from the Sword Sect away, while he would face the tribulation-crossing cultivator alone.
Jiang Yan glared at him angrily and said in a trembling voice: "Brother, you said last night that you would live and die with me, and sink together. Are you going to regret it now?"
"Ayan."
"Brother, don't you have confidence in just overcoming the tribulation? Or do you think I would abandon you?" Jiang Yan said in a low voice.
"..."Gu Jingyun lowered his eyes and took in the Immortal King's angry look.
“I’m sorry.” The man said softly, “You’re right. I shouldn’t set limits for myself, and I shouldn’t say things like that to you.”
He is just a monk who is transcending tribulation.
Gu Jingyun turned around and went back. Everyone in the Sword Sect stood up in unison, holding their swords tightly in their hands, ready to draw their swords at any time.
Gu Jingyun suddenly realized that he was seriously wrong.
He was only concerned about Jiang Yan's wishes and safety, but forgot that he was equally important in Jiang Yan's heart.
What's more, Ayan is a sword cultivator.
A sword cultivator would rather die honorably than break his sword and live in cowardice.
"senior."
Gu Jingyun stood in front of the Sword Sect and said in a deep voice, "No need to exert spiritual pressure on us anymore. If you have any dissatisfaction, why not show up and see us?"
This kind of scene is not something that ordinary people can enjoy.
The cultivators from the small sects and other independent cultivators had already begun to retreat silently when they sensed the spiritual pressure from the cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage.
Some cultivators who were on the list or were on good terms with the Sword Sect, held on and did not leave.
But he did not rashly stand up for the Sword Sect, but sat where he was, watching the situation develop calmly.
The waiter was called back by the shopkeeper, and they all hid in the backyard - if it collapsed, the royal family would pay double the compensation. You can beat them up as you like, your life is more important.
"Why are you hiding and refusing to show up, senior? Are you trying to be a coward?" Gu Jingyun said with a smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, a man's shout was heard from the corner of the inn.
"presumptuous!"
The sound was like muffled thunder, carrying with it a strong spiritual force. Just one sound made the blood of everyone present boil.
The cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage is indeed so terrifying.
Gu Jingyun was at the front and took on 80% of the pressure.
The pressure like a mountain fell on his shoulders, making people want to kneel down. However, Gu Jingyun stood straight as a pine tree, without bending his knees at all.
"That's enough. Aren't you ashamed of bullying a child?" The woman's dissatisfied voice sounded.
"Humph. Who told him to scold me?"
“…”
"Okay, okay. Madam, don't be angry. I'll take it back!"
The moment the overwhelming gravity disappeared, Gu Jingyun's body swayed slightly, but Jiang Yan quickly took half a step forward and held him up without making a sound.
A pair of snow demon couple suddenly appeared in the originally "unmanned" corner.
Gu Jingyun swallowed the bloody smell rising from his throat, and still had a calm smile on his face.
"May I ask your name, Senior?"
"Xitron, first Snow Demon King." The man said, "One hundred years ago, you beat my son."
"!!" There was an uproar in the field. Except for Jian Zong who was mentally prepared, everyone else couldn't help whispering.
Not everyone is well-informed.
They might know from rumors that Citroen is the Sword Immortal's close friend, but they may not know that he was also the previous Snow Demon King.
Gu Jingyun asked: "Senior, are you here to avenge Xue Lan?"
Citroën still wants to be mysterious.
Everyone in the Sword Sect is ready to go, ready to start fighting at the slightest disagreement.
Oh my god.
I have never fought with a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing stage in my life - Elder Ling in the sect is half a step away from the Tribulation Crossing stage, but he is not a formal Tribulation Crossing cultivator.
If I can make it back alive or survive a fight or two, I can brag about it for a long time back in the clan.
Follow the young master to do this!
The eyes of the Sword Sect members are shining, and their attitude has changed from "It's actually a tribulation, I'm a bit afraid of death" to "I have to die sooner or later, and dying is better than being a coward."
Now it has become - "Wouldn't it be a loss if I didn't fight to overcome the tribulation? I'll just do it if I have to die!"
Citroën was stared at with gleaming eyes by a group of militants.
Citroen's forehead was covered with sweat: "..."
What's wrong with this group of sword cultivators?
He doesn't really want to fight, don't come over!
Gu Jingyun smiled and slowly drew his sword.
"Senior, the Sword Sect is not afraid of strong enemies."
Jiang Yan stands side by side with the young master.
The two men had similar auras, equal pace, and their sword energies were as strong as rainbows!
The Heart-Searching Sword and the Demon-Breaking Sword were unsheathed almost at the same time. The two similar yet opposite swords were completely exposed to the eyes of the Xue couple.
"Forget Return..." Xue Qing unconsciously grabbed her husband's arm muscles, her expression excited: "That's the Forget Return Sword and the Questioning Heart Sword!"
Jiang Yan and Gu Jingyun paused at the same time.
Not many people know the true name of the Sword of Questioning the Heart, but quite a few do, so it is understandable that the Snow Demon King knows it.
What is the Forgotten Return Sword?
The sword in Jiang Yan's hand was clearly called Po Mo, not Wang Gui.
The Citroen was twisted hard and let out a painful "hiss".
"Ma'am, please let go..."
Xue Qing let him go, her expression still showing hidden excitement.
She walked quickly in front of Jiang Yan and Gu Jingyun, still focusing on the sword in Jiang Yan's hand.
"Young man, can you let me see your sword?" Xue Qing asked.
Jiang Yan looked at the woman and shook his head.
"I'm sorry, ma'am," Jiang Yan said, "I have to remain vigilant."
Xue Qing: “…”
Citroen: “…”
Half an incense stick ago, Citroen was still bullying the children in the name of "making them more alert".
Unexpectedly, the boomerang hit me.
Xue Qing turned around and glared at Citroen fiercely.
If this guy hadn't gone crazy and done something like this, the situation wouldn't have gotten so bad that it's almost impossible to resolve!
Citroen smiled awkwardly: "My friend, this is a misunderstanding. Just let her take a look and it will be fine after she's done. I really won't do anything."
Jiang Yan said nothing, but just gripped his sword tighter.
Gu Jingyun stood in front of the young man and said coldly: "I was the one who beat Xue Lan, why do you have to scare innocent people?"
“…” Citroen received his wife’s angry gaze.
Oh no, if this kid is really his nephew, he’s doomed!
Xue Qing said bluntly: "If you can't speak, just go away!"
Citroen stepped back awkwardly, and the aura of the Tribulation Stage was completely condensed into his body, not releasing a single bit. Now, he looked like a simple and honest man.
Xue Qing turned around and sincerely apologized to everyone present, then turned to Gu Jingyun and Jiang Yan.
"I apologize for my husband's reckless behavior. It happened for a reason and it was not a malicious offense. Please believe me once. This is not the place to talk. Young Master and this..."
"Jiang Yan."
...His surname is Jiang indeed.
Xue Qing said sincerely, "Please ask Young Master Gu and Fellow Daoist Jiang to move to the elegant room and talk about old times."
old friends.
Jiang Yan: "You mean..."
Xue Qing took another half step forward and said in a very low voice: "You look a lot like your father."
Jiang Yan closed his eyes.
Xue Qing: "There are elegant seats ready upstairs."
Jiang Yan: "Okay."
