The three young men in the restaurant all looked very extraordinary. After the others left, they looked at each other, and a glimmer of light flashed in their eyes.
The young man in Taoist attire took the initiative to stand up and said with a smile, "The two of you, it is fate that brought us together. Why don't we sit together and have a few drinks?"
The white-clothed sword-wielding man and the black-clothed young man both nodded and walked to the table of the young man in Daoist robes.
"Shopkeeper, bring two more sets of chopsticks."
The man in Taoist attire called out and cupped his hands at the two of them. "I am Liu Gongxuan, and my Taoist name is Grey Feather. I have just entered Jianghu, and I hope you can give me some pointers."
As soon as they heard this name, a trace of surprise appeared on the faces of the other two, but they quickly suppressed it.
The young man in white smiled and said, "Liu Gongxuan, who is ranked 18th on the Ranking List of Young Masters, is the acting Sect Leader of Good Fortune Gate and the personal disciple of 'Dao Lord Jiuhua' Zhang Boduan. If such a person still needs pointers, then wouldn't those below 18th on the Ranking List of Young Masters be useless?"
Liu Gongxuan smiled and said, "If I am not wrong, this brother should be a disciple of Mingjian Villa?"
The man in white nodded and said, "Mingjian Villa, He Feng."
Liu Gongxuan smiled warmly and said, "He Feng, who is ranked 20th on the Ranking List of Young Masters, is not inferior to me. If I hadn't entered Jianghu a few years earlier than you, Brother He, I don't think I would be ranked 18th."
It was said that young people were full of vigor. In Jianghu, the Ranking List of Young Masters changed the fastest. Even two martial artists who had never seen each other would be at daggers drawn when they met by chance. They would even fight for the sake of the ranking list.
There were very few people like Liu Gongxuan who would take the initiative to admit that he was inferior to the other party and make the other party be convinced. His temperament was like a spring breeze and rain.
He Feng could not help but sigh in his heart. He was indeed inferior to the other party. Just now, he knew that the other party was Liu Gongxuan, who had surpassed him by two places on the Ranking List of Young Masters. He still had the intention to compete with the other party.
However, after hearing Liu Gongxuan's words, he realized that he was far inferior to Liu Gongxuan in both strength and bearing.
Liu Gongxuan was only in his early twenties, but he had already reached the 18th position on the Young List. With his strength and potential, it was estimated that he would step into the top three of the Young List in a few years.
Although He Feng was a disciple of Mingjian Villa, he was not a direct descendant of Mingjian Villa, but a collateral descendant.
Mingjian Villa's direct descendants and collateral descendants were not so clear. As long as you had the ability, Mingjian Villa would do their best to nurture you. Therefore, He Feng, the most outstanding person of this generation, stood out.
He was actually a generation younger than He Xiu, so he should call He Xiu uncle.
It was a pity that He Xiu's achievements on the Ranking List of Young Masters were too amazing. He had occupied the top three of the Ranking List of Young Masters for more than ten years, and only Lin Changhe of the Taiyidaomen Sect and Su Xin, who was currently in charge of the Northwest Region, had surpassed him.
Lin Changhe was born with a Taoist aptitude and was considered to be the existence closest to the Way of Heaven in the history of the Good Fortune Gate. At this time, he was comprehending the Way of Heaven in the Taixu Mystery Land of the Taiyidaomen Sect. Once he had an epiphany, he could step into the Yang Spirit Realm.
Su Xin was now the lord of the Northwest Region. He dominated an area and could compete with the experts of the older generation. He was definitely at the level of a giant in the Jianghu. It was not embarrassing for He Xiu to be suppressed by the two of them.
Therefore, He Xiu's achievements and status were obvious to all. As the most outstanding disciple of this generation of Mingjian Villa, He Feng was also under a lot of pressure.
Liu Gongxuan and He Feng both turned their eyes to the young man in a black warrior suit. The young man said lightly, "I am Gong Wenyu, from Sichuan."
Hearing this name, Liu Gongxuan and He Feng's expressions changed.
'Black Demon Blade' Gong Wenyu, a rogue cultivator from Sichuan Sect, ranked 35th on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
This ranking was obviously much lower than that of Liu Gongxuan and He Feng, but the two of them did not look down on Gong Wenyu at all.
This was because Gong Wenyu had only been famous in the Jianghu for a year. In this year, there were young heroes of the Jianghu who had died in his hands, and there were also warriors of the older generation who had died in his hands. He had almost never been defeated in his first year.
Moreover, his martial arts were also very mysterious. The information on the Ranking List of Young Masters showed that he used a blade, a black blade. When the blade was unsheathed, it would kill, so it was also called the Black Demon Blade.
No one in the Jianghu knew what kind of blade technique he used, because those who had seen his real blade technique were all dead.
Moreover, it was rumored that he also had a blade, a left-handed blade that was even more terrifying than his Black Demon Blade.
Two months ago, Gong Wenyu had killed 'Thousand Leaf Hands' Tang Ming, who was ranked 35th on the Sichuan Dao Execution List. This person was the most outstanding disciple of the Sichuan Tang Sect of this generation. In the end, he was killed by Gong Wenyu in less than ten moves, and Gong Wenyu had also been promoted to 35th on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
Therefore, both Liu Gongxuan and He Feng knew that Gong Wenyu's strength was definitely not simple. His true strength was far stronger than his ranking.
Now that the three of them were gathered, it could be considered a small representation of the strength of the younger generation in the martial arts world.
The warriors of Su Xin's generation on the Ranking List of Young Masters had all been removed from the Ranking List of Young Masters. They had either stepped into the Soul Formation stage or were automatically removed from the Ranking List of Young Masters after the age of 35. Therefore, the people on the Ranking List of Young Masters were all younger disciples in the Jianghu.
Although it was said that talented people would appear in every generation, few people could surpass Su Xin's generation on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
Su Xin, Lin Changhe, Xiao Huang, He Xiu, and the others who were on the Ranking List of Young Masters in the past had now grown up and were already the middle forces of their respective forces. Su Xin could even compete with the older generation of martial artists.
In addition to these people, the rest of the Ranking List of Young Masters like Yin Xixue were also not bad.
It was precisely because the previous generation of martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters was too amazing that it also put great pressure on this generation of martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters.
Liu Gongxuan poured a glass of wine for them and said, "Why did the two of you come to Jiannan?"
He Feng said in surprise, "My Mingjian Villa is in Jiannan, shouldn't I be here?"
Liu Gongxuan shook his head and said, "Sorry, I forgot about that."
Gong Wenyu said indifferently, "I was chased by the Tang Sect, so I could only escape to the Central Plains and travel around."
He Feng looked at Liu Gongxuan and asked, "Brother Liu, do you have a purpose for coming to Jiannan?"
Jiannan was the base camp of sword cultivators. Mingjian Villa and Sword Fighting Sect were located in the south and north, directly dividing Jiannan. If Liu Gongxuan's matter involved their Mingjian Villa, He Feng really had to pay attention.
Liu Gongxuan said in a deep voice, "Recently, a strange organization suddenly appeared in the Jianghu, called the Tianzhu League. Although they keep a low profile, I think people should have heard of them.
This Tianzhu League specializes in acting in the dark, collecting evidence of some evil people and then killing them, cutting off their heads, but directly destroying their bodies, not leaving a trace.
Every time they kill someone, they will put a Heavenly Punishment Order next to the head, stating the crimes committed by the other party, meaning to punish on behalf of the heavens. The incident of the Qiu Family of Zeyang Prefecture was done by this Tianzhu League. "
Gong Wenyu, who had always been taciturn, suddenly said, "Is there something wrong with that? Some sects and families take advantage of their power to bully others. On the surface, they pretend to be righteous people, but in the dark, they are all thieves and prostitutes.
In the past, no one cared about these things, but now that the Tianzhu League has taken action, it's not a bad thing. With these lessons, at least they won't be so arrogant anymore. "
Seeing that Gong Wenyu was a little emotional, Liu Gongxuan quickly said with a bitter smile, "Brother Gong, that's not what I mean. Those evil people do deserve to be killed, but in my opinion, this Tianzhu League is not easy to deal with.
For example, if I see such a situation, I will definitely only kill the leader of the evil, let them get their retribution, and at the same time, warn the future generations.
But this Tianzhu League? They don't care, as long as a family or a sect makes a mistake, they will directly kill the whole family!
And that's not all, they don't even leave a whole body, directly destroying the body and leaving only the head. No matter how I look at it, there's something wrong with this matter.
Even the evidence left behind at the end, I feel that the other party deliberately left it to confuse the public or to give the people of the pugilistic world an explanation. I have a feeling that things are not that simple. "
The strategy that Su Xin formulated for the Tianzhu League was relatively safe, at least until now, it had not revealed anything.
However, even if it did not reveal anything, it could not stop others from suspecting it. At present, Liu Gongxuan's analysis was extremely accurate, but unfortunately, it was still just a guess, and there was no evidence.
He Feng pondered for a moment and said, "Then, Brother Liu, this time, you came to Jiannan to track down this Tianzhu League?"
Liu Gongxuan nodded, the gentle temperament that had been hanging on his face had disappeared, replaced by a sorrowful expression.
"Countless sects of the Tianzhu League have been destroyed this year, and I have a good friend who was a guest in a small sect that was destroyed by the Tianzhu League.
There are indeed some people in that small sect who are outrageous and have done a lot of harm to the pugilistic world, but most of the people in that small sect are innocent, and my good friend is even more innocent.
As a result, that small sect was directly destroyed in one night, and my good friend was also implicated in this matter, and was also killed by the people of the Tianzhu League! "
At this point, a trace of anger appeared in Liu Gongxuan's eyes.
He was a very persistent person. Originally, when he got the news about the Tianzhu League, he only felt a little strange and did not take it to heart. But after learning about the death of his good friend, he began to investigate. He did not expect that after investigating further, this doubt would become suspicion.
Even now, Liu Gongxuan can be 100% sure that this Tianzhu League is definitely a conspiracy!
At least this Tianzhu League is not like what they appear to be, just an organization that secretly punishes on behalf of the heavens and eliminates evil for the pugilistic world.
