When it comes to the first meeting between Gui Wuying and Jianxian, it was like a bolt from the blue, and they immediately became rivals.
The world of martial arts is incomplete without gossip.
Before Xu Shiqing became famous for his flower-breaking skills, he was already a promising talent in the martial arts world.
The eldest senior brother of Jianmen, the youngest half-step grandmaster, his master Liu Xiangsheng is one of the five generals, and he has a life-and-death friendship with King Xie Pinghai of Qi.
The young man possessed strength, status, connections, a good temper, and good looks. Xu Shiqing thrived in the martial arts world like a duck in water. His master's fears of conspiracy and intrigue were either discovered and deciphered in time by the young man's unstoppable force and powerful malicious perception, or simply avoided contact.

ProudJPG.
All in all, Xu Shiqing, who had just come of age, was a very popular person. Not only was he popular among his peers, but he was also very lovable in the eyes of his elders.
But just as there is good and there is evil, there are chivalrous and righteous heroes in the world, and naturally there are cruel and ruthless people in the evil cult.
——Xie Chongyue, also known as Gui Wuying, killer, and leader of a demon cult.
When he met Xu Shiqing, he was just a teenager who had not yet reached adulthood. He was a master of light martial arts and had a "world-famous" poison technique. It was said that there was no one in the world that he could not kill.
Rumor has it that the two first met at one of Xie Chongyue's missions, and Xu Shiqing accepted his mission target's commission to protect the other party.
As a result, not long after meeting the client, he disappeared.
The two men fought on the spot and became enemies from then on.
This kind of plot is not uncommon and has become a commonplace. But when it comes from the storyteller, it is particularly convincing.
People are also more inclined to believe that the two of them fought against each other when they first met, which is more in line with the dream of the people in the martial arts world.
It's a pleasure to take revenge. It's quite strange that they think the sword immortal is ethereal, but at the same time they think the sword immortal is ruthless and doesn't talk much, and will take revenge on the spot.
But if nothing else, holding a grudge is real.
Xie Chongyue smiled and raised his hands under the cold gaze of the person opposite him, as if helpless: "Don't look at me like that, I'm not here to cause you any trouble this time."
"...What do you want to do?" Xu Shiqing was actually not as nervous as he looked. He even wanted to laugh, but he held it back.
That's how it is when you're in a place with people you know, it's really hard to feel nervous.
Xie Chongyue glanced at Han Chengyu, who was almost like a quail beside him, and thought that this person was quite redundant, but said: "I'll give you some tips."
Han Chengyu looked at him suspiciously.
Although Gui Wuying has four rules that he won't kill, namely the elderly, the weak, women and children, he is a killer after all. In addition, he has no record of failure and he likes to be alone, so no one likes him.
Although people in the underworld can kill people, they cannot just kill people!
Most Jianghu people are more like thugs, forming gangs, helping people collect debts or delivering goods for merchants. Some are also active in the business world. After all, weapons not only need to be maintained, but also purchased. Larger Jianghu sects with greater demand have to order weapons from the government and register them...
The evil thing about people like Xie Chongyue in the Demon Cult is that their weapons are not purchased through formal channels, and they are not recorded in the court. In addition, some of them act crazy and cruelly, and are occasionally wanted by the government, and then beaten up by famous and upright people.
They have been much more well-behaved in recent years. Currently, the most intimidating demon cult member active in the martial arts world is Xie Chongyue.
Han Chengyu didn't quite believe that the other party would have anything good to say.
.
Xie Chongyue certainly didn't come here to help.
But he couldn't say it so bluntly.
"Wen Cairou is a member of the Jinyiwei." Xie Chongyue just smiled and dropped this bombshell, then said: "And this shipload of cargo, especially the official salt inside, is just a cover."
“…”
Xu Shiqing was silent
"?" Han Chengyu was confused.
"Where did this ship sail from?" Xu Shiqing slowly closed his eyes: "...Jinling."
Xie Chongyue also smiled and said, "Yes, Jinling."
The most prosperous city in Qi Zhou, where the Qi King's palace is located, and the center of the entire Jiangnan region.
——Where the storm begins
"Jinling...what happened?" Han Chengyu asked.
Xu Shiqing raised his eyes and said, "After the Huai River passes through Jinling from the Central Plains, it is connected by several sections of the Grand Canal to Jinkui, Ningjia, Suzhou, and Hangzhou... The economy of Jiangnan relies entirely on this water transport, and Jinling is to Jiangnan what Shanhaiguan is to Qi and Zhou."
As long as Jinling remained in the hands of the Qi and Zhou court, Jiangnan would be firmly controlled. This was not only economically, but also geographically.
After Jinling, the waterways in the south of the Yangtze River were unobstructed and travel southward was unimpeded.
"If the ship only passed through Suzhou and Hangzhou, it would mean that almost all the officials in this area were rotten, and Wen Cairou would not have disappeared."
Xu Shiqing looked at Han Chengyu and said, "She is not only the daughter of a wealthy man in Suzhou and Hangzhou, but also the only treasure of the number one merchant in Jiangnan. This means that behind her, the Wen family has a very close cooperation with the government... and she is also a member of the Jinyiwei."
Exposing Su Hang's corruption would be like sacrificing the car to save the driver for the entire Jiangnan region. Furthermore, Su Hang's power was no greater than the Wen family's, so how could anything happen to Wen Cairou?
Why did she have to disappear?
Xu Shiqing originally thought that it was just a settlement of Suzhou and Hangzhou. He knew that the two states might just be the beginning, but he never imagined that the scope would be so large.
"Wen Cairou obtained evidence proving corruption among officials throughout Jiangnan."
Only this can explain why Wen Cairou disappeared, but the Jinyiwei was still secretly investigating and waiting for the opportunity, because the evidence against Wen Cairou was not given to her superior.
