1297 On the road, disobedient children deserve to be beaten

Xuanqing Pavilion is built on the Nanling Ai River. Small houses of various colors are built around the main hall in an orderly manner. It looks like a small town on the water. The main means of transportation is small boats.

Because all the residents are women, each cottage is exquisite and beautiful. The hazy moonlight covers the cottage, forming a faint halo, just like a fairyland on earth.

Unfortunately, Lan Jiuqing didn’t have time to appreciate the beauty of Xuanqing Pavilion. He came here to do serious business.

Lan Jiuqing found a small boat on the shore and jumped on it on tiptoe. When he smelled the strong smell of powder in the boat, Lan Jiuqing frowned.

It was the first time that Lan Jiuqing used this kind of small boat. He didn’t find the trick at first, and the boat kept spinning in the water. If it weren’t for his great skills, it would have definitely crashed into the cabin and alarmed the people in Xuanqing Pavilion.

Practice makes perfect. Lan Jiuqing quickly mastered the method of rowing a small boat. The boat moved forward in the water, and the waves made a clattering sound. Lan Jiuqing was still worried about being discovered, but in the end...

I don’t know if it’s because the people in Xuanqing Pavilion are too confident, or if there are people who often use boats at night. The sound of the small boats cutting through the waves is quite loud, but no one comes out to check.

Lan Jiuqing did not dare to take it lightly, fearing that this was a trap set by the other party. After all, his journey had been too smooth, so smooth that he felt that the Xuanqing Pavilion did not look like a sect with the word "Xuan" in it at all.

Thinking of the traps along the way to Xuanxiao Palace and comparing it with the tranquility along the way to Xuanqing Pavilion, Lan Jiuqing suspected that he had gone to the wrong place.

In fact, Lan Jiuqing was thinking too much. Xuanqing Pavilion was different from Xuanxiao Palace. Although they were both sects with the word "Xuan" in their names, there was nothing worth coveting in Xuanqing Pavilion, and no one was willing to come.

Xuanqing Pavilion specifically houses a group of women who have been abandoned by men. Most people are unwilling to come to this place for fear of being contaminated by bad luck.

Xuanqing Pavilion is an isolated small town. No matter how capable these women are, no one is willing to mess with them. After all, men are still respected in this world. Men will never like such a place, let alone the women of Xuanqing Pavilion.

Xuanqing Pavilion has been deserted for many years, and the women in the pavilion are not good at running a business. Even if there are a few who know how to do business, they cannot make it big. The men in the business world will not allow the women in Xuanqing Pavilion to be too rich.

Xuanqing Pavilion is becoming increasingly poor. It used to be one of the four major Xuan sects, but now it is getting worse and worse and declining. Even thieves won't come here.

Over the years, the security of Xuanqing Pavilion naturally became lax, and Lan Jiuqing got a great bargain.

The boat soon reached the outside of the main hall. Lan Jiuqing tiptoed and after a few rises and falls on the water, he landed steadily outside the main hall. Before he got close, he heard conversations coming from inside the house.

"Hong Gu and the others all died tragically. Do we still need to continue this deal?"

"We definitely cannot return the money. So many of our people died, and this compensation is necessary."

"Even if this deal can be cancelled, what about Hong Gu? Did they die in vain? We must avenge them."

"Qing Yi, I know you have a good relationship with Hong Gu, but calm down. She is not someone we can mess with."

"It's all Mo Yi's fault. He only thought about the money in this deal, but didn't check the other party's situation. We lost so many people from the Red Palace in vain."

A group of women were talking back and forth, accusing each other. Lan Jiuqing listened for a long time but could not hear what countermeasures these women came up with. Finally, the so-called Pavilion Master could not listen any more and said, "Okay, everyone, stop talking. I have my own ideas on this matter. You guys go down first."

These people reluctantly shut up, got up and left one by one, taking their own boats back to their own houses. No one actually noticed the extra boat on the water.

It's not that Lan Jiuqing looked down on women, it's just that the women in Xuanqing Pavilion are too unvigilant. Even if there are no outsiders coming to this place, they still have to take the necessary precautions, but...

"Hey, whose boat is this? Why isn't it leaving yet?" The last woman to leave noticed that there was a small boat parked alone on the water. She muttered something but didn't investigate further.

Disappointed, Lan Jiuqing was completely disappointed with Xuanqing Pavilion. No wonder such a prestigious sect with the character Xuan in its name had fallen to the point of competing with killers for business.

Lan Jiuqing stood in the dark and waited for a long time. After the women returned to their rooms, he walked out of the dark and entered the hall through the main door.

Inside the hall, a woman in white stood with her back to the door. Her lonely figure looked a little desolate. When she heard the footsteps behind her, she did not turn around, but said coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to bother me? Get out!"

"Xuanqing!" Lan Jiuqing uttered these two words majestically. Every head of Xuanqing Pavilion was called Xuanqing.

The woman in white was startled and turned around quickly. She saw Lan Jiuqing's well-maintained face, which showed shock and uneasiness. She asked in a stern voice, "Who are you? How dare you trespass into Xuanqing Pavilion?"

Even the number one expert in the martial arts world, Lan Jiuqing, didn't recognize him, which showed how isolated Xuanqing Pavilion was. Lan Jiuqing became less and less interested in the situation.

Such a sect, even if they are still loyal to the token in his hand, is completely useless.

"You don't need to know who I am, you just need to know this." Lan Jiuqing took out the Jiuzhou token and walked in...

"Jiuzhou token? Master?" Xuanqing opened her mouth wide, her legs softened, and she knelt on the ground uncontrollably. Lan Jiuqing didn't even look at her, but sat directly on the main seat, sizing her up with a critical look, until Xuanqing's body was shaking, Lan Jiuqing said: "Xuanqing, do you admit your guilt?"

"Subordinates..." Xuan Qing was stunned. She didn't know what she had done wrong. She had done nothing in these years.

snort……

Lan Jiuqing knew from Xuanqing's look that she was not a capable person, and said in a cold voice: "You colluded with the Nanling royal family privately. Do you know what mistake you made? Have you forgotten how the Lan family perished?"

Lan Jiuqing could accept that the Xuan sect was no longer loyal to the previous dynasty, just like Xuanxiao Palace, but he could not accept that the Xuan sect was controlled by other royal families. Xuanqing Pavilion touched his reverse scale, otherwise he would not have exposed his identity.

Xuan Qing's eyes widened even more, and he said hesitantly, "I didn't know that the client was from the Nanling Royal Family."

"Don't know? You didn't know anything, yet you took on business that you shouldn't have taken. Xuanqing, as the Pavilion Master, you are really responsible. How could I not know that Xuanqing Pavilion has joined the Killer Alliance?" Lan Jiuqing's words were extremely harsh. Xuanqing's face turned pale instantly and he lowered his head and dared not speak.

What Lan Jiuqing said was true, and she was powerless to refute it, but...

There are thousands of people in Xuanqing Pavilion, each of whom needs food and clothing, and none of them is good at management. She always has to find a way out for these people. What's wrong with her doing this?

Xuan Qing was very dissatisfied with Lan Jiuqing's accusation. He clenched his hands into fists in his sleeves, trying his best to control his anger.

The descendants of the Lan family have never cared about their lives, so what qualifications do they have to blame them...

At the same time, Feng Qingchen, who was far away in the other courtyard, was harassed by the people from the Purple Robe Hall again. In order to escape, Feng Qingchen had to agree to go with them to the Xuanqing Pavilion first. As for what happened next...

Feng Qingchen believed that she would always find a chance to run away!
