Gu Wei was talking when a man in black suddenly came over from the next table. He was tall and thin, and looked very chivalrous. He was holding a bowl of wine in his hand and asked enthusiastically, "Little brother, are you here to see the swordsmith Xiao Ning as well?"
Gu Wei nodded, "Just now I heard from the waiter, are you guys here to see Xiao Ning too, brother?"
The eldest brother nodded and sighed, "Yes, we have been here for three months. We have checked all the people with the surname Xiao in Chuling County, but we haven't seen Xiao Ning anywhere!"
Xie Ling asked: "What do you want to see Xiao Ning for? Forging swords?"
The eldest brother nodded and said, "Who among the martial artists in the world doesn't want a sword of Xiao Ning?"
Xie Ling had heard from Gu Wei that Xiao Ning was famous before, but she didn't expect that Xiao Ning was really that famous.
I glanced around casually and found that most of the people there were travel-weary people from the martial arts world, with swords beside them, wine on the table, and chatting.
There are also some people with a cold and arrogant temperament, sitting alone at a table, giving off an aura that everyone should stay away from.
I guess they are all swordsmen who came to Xiao Ning to forge swords.
It seems that Xiao Ning has unexpectedly boosted the economy of Chuling County?
At this moment, a group of men in black suddenly walked into the store. Leading them was a young boy with a strong aura and a cold murderous aura.
The waiter went up to greet the customer in a hurry, but he was sweating coldly in his heart.
"Sir, what would you like to eat?"
The young man in the lead spoke briefly and his voice sounded like it was filled with ice.
"A pot of wine and ten kilograms of roast beef. By the way, is there a swordsmith named Xiao Ning in your place?"
Okay, I’m here to see Xiao Ning again.
The waiter repeated what he had just said to Gu Wei and Xie Ling, then quickly ran away.
He didn't dare stay with this group of people for long, it was so creepy!
After the group of men in black sat down, they silently looked around at the people and environment.
The look is very aggressive, ostentatious and unbridled, which makes people very unhappy.
Who here is not a swordsman with martial arts skills?
Some people who are aloof by nature would look back directly, not to challenge, but just to look at him normally. After all, no one wants to make enemies when they are out there.
But the next second, the flying knife in the hand of the leading black-clothed young man flew straight across the restaurant lobby and accurately pierced the man's forehead. The man didn't even say a word and held his breath instantly.
The air was stagnant and the restaurant instantly fell into an eerie silence.
The elder brother sitting opposite Gu Wei was dumbfounded and almost dropped the bowl in his hand.
This is One-Eyed Li!
They were killed in an instant. Who are these people?
Gu Wei and the others were far away from the group of men in black. The eldest brother lowered his voice and said, "I know the dead man. He was a well-known one-eyed swordsman in the martial arts world. He died without any defense!"
Gu Wei frowned.
He had also heard of the name One-Eyed Li.
There are not many people who can make a name for themselves in the world after losing an eye, and there are even fewer who can use the sword in their hands in a fancy way.
I didn't expect that this person, who had been famous in the world for many years, would die like this.
Who are those people?
Xie Ling was in a good position, with a large pillar next to her, so she could quietly observe the group of men in black without being noticed.
She always felt that the person who came was not well-intentioned.
The group of men in black looked young, the oldest was at most twenty-seven or twenty-eight, and everyone implicitly respected the seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy.
A group of people sat upright with their backs straight. They were obviously acquaintances, but no one said a word. They all had cold faces, as if the other person was the murderer of their father.
Outside the restaurant, the streets were bustling with people; the cries of vendors and the hurried sounds of horses blended together, creating a noisy atmosphere in the busy city.
However, the atmosphere in the restaurant fell into silence due to the death of One-Eyed Li, so quiet that even the sound of a needle falling could be heard.
"Here we go, here comes the roast beef and the wine!"
The waiter still ran over happily with the plate in his hand, but when he found no one spoke, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, glanced around, and when he saw the bloody corpse, he screamed in fear.
"Ah! Help!"
The young man in black raised his eyes lazily, and tapped the flying knife on his waist with his cold white fingers, "Shut up."
These simple words made the waiter's blood boil, as if someone was strangling his neck. He couldn't utter a word. He knelt down and the wine jug fell to the ground.
Xie Ling frowned.
This group of people are too arrogant. They can kill anyone they want.
The elder brother opposite Gu Wei stood up suddenly and exchanged glances with him.
Then he walked over, helped the waiter up, and said to him, "Little brother, your legs are not in good condition. Let me give you a hand."
People in the underworld are the most loyal.
The swordsman in this restaurant has basically lived here for a long time in order to find Xiao Ning. He has developed feelings for the waiter and naturally doesn't want to see him die in vain.
As he finished speaking, all the swordsmen around him looked over, with a hint of support for the waiter.
The waiter was so grateful that he burst into tears. He bent down to pick up the wine jug and beef that were scattered on the ground and said carefully: "Sir, the food is spilled. I, I will give you a new portion."
The young man in black turned sideways, exchanged glances with the waiter, and snorted coldly, "Go away."
When he turned around, Xie Ling saw his face clearly.
A face that was too delicate to be real, pale and handsome, like a Udumbara flower blooming in the dark night, and between his brows, there was a tattoo of a delicate silver lotus that was blooming slowly, making his face look mysterious and weird.
Xie Ling's eyes suddenly widened.
This is the symbol of the Tianjue killer of Guangyao Palace!
How come they are here?
And also came to find Xiao Ning?
Gu Wei noticed the change in Xie Ling's expression, and covered her with his slender hand, raising his eyebrows slightly, "What's wrong?"
Xie Ling leaned close to his ear and said what Caiyi had said to her before.
After listening to this, Gu Wei frowned.
The ultimate killer from Guangyao Palace?
Gu Wei didn't know much about Guangyao Palace, but Leng Hu died at their hands after all, so he had to be careful.
The two looked at each other and prepared to leave.
At this moment, a young man in white suddenly walked in from outside the restaurant.
He was carrying a bamboo basket, his eyebrows were downcast, as if he didn't feel the stagnant atmosphere in the restaurant, and he said lightly: "Is anyone buying plums?"
No one spoke.
Gu Wei's eyes fell on the young man, and when he saw the red mark on his wrist, he narrowed his eyes slightly and said loudly, "I'll buy it."
