There was no wind, no rain, no stars and no moon.
There was no crow flying in the night, and no drunkard pushing the door open.
This was an ordinary day, if it were not for the wedding of the Song clan's Tingyun and Miss Xiaoxin of the Cui family.
However, this was destined to not be a peaceful day.
Even in the 'Records of the Divine continent' recorded by later generations, it had left a strong and colourful stroke.
He's here!
Following the muffled roar of the old housekeeper, a powerful pressure suddenly descended from the sky. It was like a meteorite was about to hit the roof of the old house, or like a transparent air shield had suddenly shrouded the little courtyard of the old house.
Everyone had a feeling of being unable to breathe.
The livestock in the backyard, the fish in the pond all felt panic. One by one, they were shrieking miserably, desperately raising their hooves and swinging their tails in circles.
Bang — —
The door of the room was pushed open by gravity.
It was not pushed open by people, but by the wind.
It was only after a long while that a handsome man in a snow-white robe slowly appeared at the door.
"This is the poison of morning glory — — Strands of it, like the rope of an ox. Without using any force, it can move the thousand-stone ox. Isn't it tricky? "
"Li Muyang — —" Song Gudu's hands were on Song Chenxi's wrist, still stubbornly fighting against the poison in his granddaughter's body. "I haven't seen you for a long time, I've been waiting for you for a long time."
"Old immortal's reputation is indeed well-deserved." Li Muyang calmly looked at the old man in the room who was desperately consuming essential qi to save his granddaughter. The person in front of him was the enemy who had killed countless people of his clan and destroyed the Lu clan. But Li Muyang's heart was not the slightest ripple. Perhaps, after many days of planning, he had been waiting for this moment to come? This was something that was destined to happen. Anger, excitement, or other emotions were somewhat insignificant. "It seems that Old immortal had long guessed that I was coming."
"Kill Song Yu, defile Qinglin, deliver your head. Besides you little dragon, who else dares to do these things to my Song clan?" Song Gudu's face was equally calm. There was worry in his eyes, but it wasn't because of Li Muyang. He was worried about his granddaughter's condition. He had tried so hard, but he still couldn't completely seal that tiny wisp of nameless poison. This really made him anxious.
Although medicine and martial arts were inseparable, the Wu Clan was ultimately not the medical path. Song Gudu's martial arts cultivation base was close to that of a half-immortal, but he only knew a little about medicine. It was not an easy task to solve his granddaughter's illness.
"I knew that nothing could be hidden from you, the Eye of the Starry Sky."
"No, you still deceived me. I never thought that Chu Ning would be willing to be your puppet and use poison on my granddaughter, Chen Xi, under the guise of visiting … Does she really think that you can destroy my Song enterprise with your strength alone? Wasn't she worried about the revenge of the Song enterprise after this matter was over? At that time, I'm afraid that she won't even be able to be a dethroned princess. What awaits her is only death … Is she not afraid of death? "
"I'm afraid of dying. Who in the world is not afraid of death? " Li Muyang smiled. "Your Song clan can kill his father, can kill his brother, can kill hundreds and thousands of people of the Chu clan — — why would you care about the little life of a princess of the previous dynasty? It is precisely because she is afraid of death that she worries day and night that she will die, and that she will follow in the footsteps of her father and brother — — so she did not hesitate to stake everything on one throw — — if she loses, she will die. If she wins, she will never have to endure the torture of being afraid of death again. Death is an instant, but the fear of death lasts for years and years. "
"That makes sense. Old man, you've underestimated things too much. " Song Gudu had a look of understanding on his face, as if Li Muyang came over to explain to him why Princess Chu Ning poisoned Song Chenxi, and he easily accepted this reason. "If a person is afraid of death all the time, it's better to die."
"That's the truth." Li Muyang echoed.
"Old man has a question that I can't figure out. Isn't Chenxi your friend? Why would you do such a cruel thing to her? She always protects you, but you still want to take her life? "
The corners of Li Muyang's eyes turned cold, "Because I'm a beast."
"— —"
"Haven't you always insulted the Dragon clan as beasts that eat human hearts and livers? What's so hard to understand about me doing such a thing? "
"That's — — it makes sense." Song Gudu was evidently choked by Li Muyang's answer. So frank and shameless, he really had the demeanour of some shameless scum of the human race.
"So, I had the chance to take your life." Li Muyang said in a fierce voice, "I know you're powerful, I know that your cultivation realm is improving. Even if I have the Dragon Soul Possession, no matter how hard I work, it is not easy to surpass your hundred years of cultivation in a short period of time — — What's more, I have to cut off your head in the shortest possible time. So, I had to come up with this plan. "
"That makes sense. Compared to killing me, Chenxi's life is not so valuable. Isn't that right? If it were me, I would have done the same. I didn't say all that to scold you. Besides, what position and qualification do I have to criticize you for killing a woman of the Song clan? Our Song clan has killed many people of the Lu clan? "
"I know your intention, you want to mess up my mind — — Unfortunately, I'm no longer the Li Muyang of the past. You can use any despicable means you have — — Because if you don't use them, I will. "
"Despicable is the pass of the despicable. You have indeed grown into — — an evil dragon that people can't help but be afraid of. If I knew this would happen, I would regret it. "
"You would also regret the wrong things you've done? You would also regret doing this to the Lu clan? If this gets out, wouldn't you be laughed at by the people of the divine continent? "
"What I regret is that I couldn't make you stay that time — — If I had pierced all nine netherworld nails into your body, would there be any turmoil? Fate makes fools of people. "
"You really are unrepentant, your heart is evil." Looking at the silver-haired Song Gudu, Li Muyang said with a sarcastic expression, "Is it the first time you've encountered such a tricky situation? If you let go, your most beloved granddaughter will die. If you don't let go, you will die again — — You've always pushed others into a dilemma before. You didn't expect that one day you would be trapped in hell, right? "
"Yes. The Still water sword school assassinated you on the street. If you had exposed your identity as a dragon, then you and your family would have died. If you hadn't exposed your identity as a dragon, then the person who would have died on the spot — — I just didn't expect that you would have the heart of the weak water, the divine continent's divine weapon to protect you. Mu Yubai's test became a child's play, became the laughing stock of Tiandu, and instead contributed to your reputation. This is also my downfall. It's really ridiculous. "
"That's because I'm not fated to die. The heavens left me with this life so that I could get revenge on you. " Li Muyang's expression was ferocious as he said, "My grandfather died, the hundreds and thousands of people of the Lu clan died, the loyal ministers and brave generals of the Lu clan died — — the humiliation and grievances that my Lu clan has suffered, as well as the netherworld nails in my father and my body, one by one, today your head will pay for it — —"
Clang — —
Li Muyang drew out the peach blossom sword in his hand.
The fragrance of flowers was strong, and the sword qi was striking.
Song Gudu finally looked up, his line of sight shifted from Song Chenxi's pale as snow face to the old housekeeper next to him, and said in a firm voice, "This little dragon has barged into my old mansion, there must have been an accident at Ting Yun's wedding — —"
"There is Zhong Mou, and there are countless masters — — there is Cui Shang's city guards, and Ting Yun's Qilin army. Even if there is a large army, they can't do anything to them. Don't worry. "
"I'm afraid that they are worried about the safety of the old mansion, and have divided their forces, and will be defeated one by one."
"That won't happen. A month before the wedding, we scattered the assassins hundreds of miles away from Tiandu. If there was any wind blowing across the grass, the news would have spread. Without a large force invading, how could they hurt the city guards and the Qilin army? "
"Today's matter, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you."
"We're all old friends, what's the use of saying these things?" The old housekeeper said with a smile.
"I hope your hand hasn't grown yet."
"Killing this kind of thing — — if you do it once, you will remember it for a lifetime."
When the old housekeeper said this, the expression on his face began to relax, and the deep wrinkles on his face gradually disappeared. Soon, his old and grey face that seemed to have been through many trials and tribulations turned into a black hair and a youthful face, with the hair and skin of a 16-year-old youth.
Boom — —
The old man's body shook violently, the dust on his body falling off.
His grey robe turned into a silver robe, and his black hair fluttered in the wind.
His curved back straightened, looking more imposing and tall than Li Muyang.
Li Muyang stared wide-eyed at the old housekeeper who had been serving Song Gudu all this time. The last time he came to visit the old mansion of the Song clan, it was this old man who helped open the door and lead the way. It seemed that someone had introduced him at that time, called Bo or something. However, Li Muyang had long forgotten the name.
Who could remember such an insignificant person?
What no one thought was that he turned out to be a hidden peerless master?
"It seems that I have to re-introduce myself to Gongzi Muyang — —" The old housekeeper looked at Li Muyang with a smile. "I am Ximen Zuizhi — — I'm afraid that no youngsters remember this name? Well, well. A name is just a symbol after all. It's just that I didn't expect that there would be people who would force me to draw my sword. It really goes against my conscience. "
"A disciple of the Sword Saint?" Li Muyang uttered in a low voice.
