It had been two months since he arrived in this world. The originally hot summer had gradually turned into an autumn breeze. The leaves gradually turned yellow and fell with the wind. An autumn chill filled the air.
The courtyard that Ye Xuan rented was not far from the Huo Village. It was only a few miles away, so Ye Xuan was not in a hurry. He walked toward the Huo Village while enjoying the scenery.
Speaking of which, the Huo Village was quite a good place. Previously, Ye Xuan thought that after the system issued the quest, the Huo Village would be visited by the people of Xiong Ba. Then, Huo Butian would not accept it. As a result, the entire Huo Village, except for Bu Jingyun, was slaughtered.
What he did not expect was that after two months, the Huo Village was still alive and kicking. If not for the fact that Ye Xuan already knew that this plot existed in the original work and that the system would never change this plot for him, he would really think that the fate of the Huo Village had been changed.
However, all of this had nothing to do with him now. With Level 2 authority, he already had a certain degree of "freedom". He no longer needed to be tied down by the system to do things he didn't want to do. Now that he saw the Huo Manor in front of him, he could attack if he wanted to, and no one would interfere with his decision even if he didn't want to.
When he walked outside the Huo Village, he could still hear the sound of metal clashing inside, but it was clearly sparse. It seemed that the order that Huo Butian had promised to deliver to the Winning Blade Sect in two months had already been delivered.
When Ye Xuan appeared at the entrance of the Huo Village, a different guest came up to him and asked, "Young Master, may I ask why you are here?"
"I am Ye Xuan. Two months ago, I made an appointment with Master Huo to visit you. May I know if the master is in the village now?" Ye Xuan asked with his fists cupped.
"So it is Young Master Ye. Our master told us that you will visit in two days. Our master is in the living room now. Mister Ye, please follow me! "
Never had he imagined that Huo Butian would actually remember him when he'd only spoken casually at that time, and Huo Butian had even specially instructed his guest to pay attention to Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan couldn't help but be greatly surprised, and he even guessed some rather dark thoughts in his heart.
In fact, this was Ye Xuan gauging the heart of a gentleman with his own mean measure. Uh, that wasn't right either. He should be gauging the heart of an ancient person with the heart of a modern person. In ancient times, trust and righteousness were extremely important. Moreover, the Huo Village's Huo Sword Technique was a set of sword technique that was filled with righteousness and promoted the spirit of chivalry. Although it was just a casual remark, when Huo Butian heard that Ye Xuan really wanted to wait for two months, he had a good impression of the Huo Village because he thought so highly of Ye Xuan. That was why he remembered it so well.
He followed the guest into the Huo Manor. Just like the last time, he entered the courtyard where the blacksmiths forged iron. However, this time, it was not as lively as last time. There were only a few blacksmiths forging iron. Some iron doctors were sharpening their knives and sharpening their blades. The place was bustling with people coming and going.
As he walked, Ye Xuan deliberately observed for a while. This time, he didn't find any trace of Bu Jingyun. Who knew where he went to look at the clouds.
After walking for a while, Ye Xuan followed the guest to the living room. "Mister Ye, please take a seat. Please take a seat, this lowly one will go and invite our Manor Lord. "
"Thank you, thank you!" Ye Xuan cupped his hands and said.
"I wouldn't dare. I wouldn't dare! "After saying that, the guest asked a servant to serve him tea and then ran to the backyard.
Not long after the servant served the tea, Ye Xuan, who was about to take a sip, heard a series of footsteps. There were two sets of footsteps, one light and the other heavy. It was obvious that one of them was skilled in martial arts, while the other was an ordinary person.
Sure enough, in less than two breaths, the guest who had led the way followed Huo Butian out from the side of the pavilion.
"Mister Ye, I have something to attend to just now. Please forgive me, forgive me!" Huo Butian was indeed a man who could manage the Huo Village so well that even Xiong Ba wanted to recruit him. He had the demeanor of a gentleman. When he saw Ye Xuan, he took the initiative to cup his hands and apologize.
"I wouldn't dare, I wouldn't dare. Please forgive me, Manor Lord Huo!" Since he was so polite, Ye Xuan was not an arrogant person, so he naturally wouldn't accept it. He also stood up and cupped his hands.
"I wouldn't dare! I wouldn't dare! Mister Ye, please take a seat! "
"Please!"
The two of them exchanged some pleasantries and drank some tea. Then Huo Butian finally stopped. He looked at Ye Xuan and asked, "May I know if Mister Ye is here for the matter of the weapon?"
"Yes, I will have to trouble Manor Lord Huo for this matter!" Ye Xuan finally got to the point, so he put on a serious expression and nodded.
"May I know what kind of weapon Mister Ye is looking for? Do you have any special requirements?" Huo Butian asked again.
"I need a saber. As for the requirements, it only needs to be able to withstand the power of my qi. It must be tough." Ye Xuan said.
"Tough?" Huo Butian couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Ye Xuan's request. He had thought that Ye Xuan must have some special requirements for coming here for a weapon, but he didn't expect it to be so simple. "Forgive me for being rude, but may I know Mister Ye's martial arts realm …?"
Based on Huo Butian's observation, Ye Xuan was so young. Even if he was the descendant of a famous family, he would only be a second-rate martial artist at his age. Why would he have such a strange requirement?
"I …"
Bang!
Ah! Ah!
Just as Ye Xuan was about to speak, a sudden explosion came from the front yard of the Huo Village, followed by several screams.
"What's going on?" Huo Butian frowned, stood up from the chair, and looked at the servant guarding the front yard.
"Not good, not good. Manor Lord, two strange people came in and injured many of our blacksmiths!" At this time, a half-naked blacksmith ran in and said.
"What?" Huo Butian was shocked and said to the people around him, "Go get my sword!"
"Mister Ye, please take a seat. I'll go take care of something outside." Although it was an urgent matter, Huo Butian still said to Ye Xuan, then strode toward the front yard.
As soon as Huo Butian left, Ye Xuan followed. If he guessed correctly, the people outside were probably people sent by Xiong Ba to recruit the Huo Village.
Huo Butian walked to the front yard and saw that the blacksmiths who were forging weapons in the front yard were all injured and had run to the side. Some bellows and furnaces had been knocked over, and one of the two giant iron gates had been kicked down by someone. There was a footprint on it.
Looking at the two people who broke in, he saw that one of them was a fat man with a strange appearance. His left leg was crippled, while the other was a skinny man with empty eye sockets.
"Brothers, the Huo Village has never had any conflict with the two of you. Why did you injure our blacksmiths and break into our house?"
"Hehehe!" The cripple grinned hideously and glanced at Huo Butian. "I, your grandpa, am Chi Shu, one of the Blazing Flame Monsters. I'm here on the order of Sect Master Ba Xiong of the Underworld Society, who has been dominating for ten thousand years!"
Hearing Xiong Ba's name, Huo Butian's face turned green. He had heard of Xiong Ba long ago! He secretly thought of the rumors he had heard about Xiong Ba. Xiong Ba was the leader of the World Society, a big sect that gradually intimidated the Jianghu in recent years. It was said that he had the ambition to dominate the world at the beginning of his rise, so he changed his name to Xiong Ba and vowed to become an ambitious person. His real name was unknown.
In recent years, Xiong Ba had been eliminating dissidents and recruiting people from the Jianghu to strengthen his power to fight against the other big sect in the Jianghu, Wu Shuang City.
He didn't expect Xiong Ba to have his eyes on the Huo Village.
Huo Butian forced himself to be calm and asked, "What news?"
Chi Shu smiled slyly and said, "Gang Leader Xiong has ordered the Huo Village to surrender today and become a member of the World Society. From now on, the Huo Village will be loyal to Gang Leader Xiong for generations to come. They must not disobey, otherwise …"
"Or else what?" Huo Butian asked seriously.
Chi Shu stared at him and said word by word, "They will kill the entire Huo Village!"
