"This..." This is actually something that Feng Xiaoxia doesn't understand either.
Because the other person, "Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng," didn't get anything right, but crucially, he did get the "Sword Opens the Heavenly Gate" right.
Moreover, the three-year timeframe was clearly stated.
So it doesn't seem quite right to say that "Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng" is just a name without substance.
Before Feng Xiaoxia could figure it out, a voice suddenly rang out from the side:
"It is indeed 'Xiangnu Heroine' who understands me best. 'Daoxia', tell me, in what way did I not say something right?"
The group turned around and discovered that the speaker was none other than 'Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng', whom they had met three years ago.
The other party was still dressed as a scholar in a blue robe.
Upon hearing this, Feng Xiaoxia said without any politeness:
"Okay, you're right about this, but what about my question? You said I would meet the other person, but in the past three years, I haven't met them at all as you said..."
Upon hearing this, the scholar in the blue robe suddenly smiled and said:
"Young man, you're mistaken. You've already seen it, you just don't know it yet, so I wasn't wrong!"
Feng Xiaoxia was stunned for a moment, then immediately retorted:
"I don't know? Then tell me where the person I asked about is now? Almost all the players in this world have gathered here. If you're right, you should be able to find them here!"
To everyone's surprise, the scholar dressed in a blue robe, 'Dreaming Young Man of the Jianghu,' was not worried at all, and nodded, saying:
“You’re right, he is right here. In fact, you’ve already met him today, you just didn’t know it.”
"I don't believe you. You can't convince me unless you show me where that person is!"
Feng Xiaoxia shook his head.
Meanwhile, the three female warriors around them also seemed to be deep in thought.
My younger cousin, Yang Mi, looked around, clearly trying to find someone in the crowd.
Unfortunately, although there were many people around, the one she remembered was not among them.
The 'Ghost Fairy' Wang Zuxian was deep in thought, her head bowed.
Only Liu Yifei, the "Dragon Girl Heroine," occasionally glanced at the scholar in the blue robe, her expression thoughtful.
However, the next moment, a single sentence from the scholar in the green robe drew everyone's attention back to him.
He smiled and said to Feng Xiaoxia:
"Young man, that's why you're being too attached to appearances. The person you want to see is right in front of you, even though he's far away!"
Feng Xiaoxia didn't understand and said irritably:
"Far away yet right before my eyes? What nonsense are you spouting..."
But this time, he wasn't allowed to finish speaking.
Liu Yifei, who was standing to the side, suddenly looked at the scholar in the blue robe and tentatively asked:
"You are...Mr. Xu?"
Wang Zuxian seemed to have thought of something as well, staring intently at 'Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng'.
My younger cousin's eyes widened, and she suddenly exclaimed:
"Brother Xu? You're 'Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng'? Are you really Brother Xu? Don't lie to us."
But if you are Brother Xu, why didn't you tell us this last time?
"Mr. Xu...?"
Feng Xiaoxia stared blankly at the scholar in the blue robe opposite him, his mind unable to process what was happening.
But deep down, he felt that this was indeed the only possibility.
Moreover... I'm afraid only President Xu would have asked me such a wicked question back then, right?
"What, you don't recognize me anymore? I often hear news about you guys, the famous Swordsman, and the equally famous Dragon Girl and Xiang Girl."
Of course, we can't forget our peerless, enchanting fairy maidens; each of you is a powerful figure in this martial world!
Xu Lu said with a smile.
Hearing this, the group immediately felt awkward.
Others might say it's okay, but when a long-lost acquaintance suddenly says it, it really feels a bit childish.
However, despite this, everyone, including Feng Xiaoxia, still had doubts about Xu Lu's identity.
So after laughing, Feng Xiaoxia said:
"Mr. Xu... cough cough, well, it's not that I don't trust you, but everyone's appearance has changed in this world, so what evidence do you still have to prove that you are Mr. Xu?"
"That's right, we can't let you fool us with just a few words. Quickly produce other evidence!"
My younger cousin nodded repeatedly.
Although Liu Yifei and Wang Zuxian did not speak, their expressions revealed that they both hoped the scholar in the blue robe would produce more direct and compelling evidence.
The scholar in the blue robe smiled easily and said:
“What’s so difficult about that? Come closer one by one, and I’ll have a private talk with you. Then you’ll know whether I’m being genuine or not.”
These familiar words reminded several people of what happened three years ago.
They leaned in and listened to a few questions.
Soon, everyone leaned in to listen, and then their expressions became quite interesting.
Finally, my younger cousin was the first to call out:
"It really is Brother Xu! My God, it really is Brother Xu!"
"Ahem, Mr. Xu, you've really given us a good laugh. We were completely fooled by you last time, and you've tricked us again this time!"
Feng Xiaoxia also complained with considerable resentment.
Liu Yifei and Wang Zuxian both smiled, one with her lips pursed.
However, the two people's smiles were completely different, each with its own unique charm.
When acquaintances meet... well, they recognize each other, and then inevitably there's a round of small talk.
Fortunately, everyone remembered the important matter. Since the person in front of them, "Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng," who knew the most secrets of the martial arts world, was one of their own, they were determined to ask all their questions.
Feng Xiaoxia pointed to the Ascension Platform in front of him and said:
"Mr. Xu, do you know what this is all about? What is the Great Power Sword Opening the Heavenly Gate?"
Can we really ascend to the celestial realm with you? Also, what's your mysterious purpose in becoming this 'Jianghu Meng Xiaosheng'...?
"Hey, hey, hey, hold on, hold on, kid. Are you a walking encyclopedia of questions? Where do you get so many questions?"
Xu Lu interrupted him impatiently.
Feng Xiaoxia immediately retorted:
"But Mr. Xu, these are all very important questions, you could even say they concern our very survival. Of course we need to find out the answers first..."
"Important my ass!" Xu Lu blurted out.
"Don't worry about it so much. The 'sword opening the heavenly gate' thing is just a gimmick. Just watch it like a movie."
Oh right, remember what I told you guys back then?
Everyone was taken aback, and exclaimed in unison, "What did you say?"
Xu Lu rolled his eyes upon hearing this and said:
"Just remember that this world is nothing but a dream."
Alright, alright, the ultimate powerhouse is about to make his appearance. Enjoy the iconic scene of the sword opening the heavenly gate!
