When Tuoba Bodhisattva and Li Mibi returned to the north, there was also a purple rainbow outside the city that headed east.
After the battle, the cold blade in Hsu Fengnian's hand could not bear the burden and broke into two. He bent down to pick up the broken blade and put it back into the scabbard first.
After traveling thirty miles north of Snow Lotus City, the two turned west. Li Mibi finally spoke and shook his head with a smile, "The King of Beiliang is young but he is very scheming."
Tuoba Bodhisattva suddenly asked, "Sir, do you know why you did not fight to the death last night and only competed with him in the state of mind?"
Li Mibi thought about it but still could not figure it out. Or rather, he was unwilling to believe the truth.
Tuoba Bodhisattva smiled, "Using fate energy to transform into a cultivation base that has nothing to do with the state, Hsu Fengnian who is in a treasure mountain can squander it at any time. However, he still has a sense of propriety and only managed to ensure that he does not die. Hsu Fengnian's first strike in the alley was to tell me this fact, to tell us not to push him too far. If it was just a competition of Qi, Hsu Fengnian would not have lost. Between you and me, one of us might have been left behind. It's just that he probably wants to leave more resources for his crumbling Northern Liang. "
Li Mibi sighed, "Fate energy, Beiliang's fate energy."
Tuoba Bodhisattva said in a low voice, "I will not go to Liuzhou first. I will go back to the Southern Court with you to remind His Majesty and the Imperial Decree of Peace."
Li Mibi suddenly got angry and sneered, "You always say that Beimang's Jianghu is not a real Jianghu. Then Hsu Fengnian who is second to none as a Great Guru in Liyang is not even cool in a fight. When has he ever done anything cool?! Cao Changqing, Gu Jiantang and the rest are the same. Only Đồng Thái is worthy of his name. "
Tuoba Bodhisattva's expression did not change. He reached out to wipe the blood from his nose and said indifferently, "A pitiful person has his own detestable side, a laughable person has his own respectable side. Therefore, I hope that Hsu Fengnian will die in my hands and not under the hooves of the Sword Emperor of West Shu. "

In Snow Lotus City, a young man carrying a saber stood in front of a small shop that sold meat naan with a worried expression.
The shopkeeper waited for a long time, but didn't see this fellow take out his money pouch. He rolled his eyes, and after a long time, he stopped paying attention to this poor bastard. What's wrong? I'm a man, not one of those young and foolish girls or ferocious women. Do you think you can eat for free just because you look like a dog? Just because he had a saber on his waist, he was considered a master of chivalry? Who are you trying to scare?! Not long after, his wife and daughter, who came to the shop to help, glanced at the young man shyly, which gave the man a headache and a toothache. He wanted to give the young man the smallest meat naan so that he could get out of the shop, but his shameless wife had already given his daughter two pieces of meat naan with the most weight. Then his daughter shamelessly shook her waist and stood in front of the young bastard. She timidly handed the meat naan to him and said with a smile that she would not take his copper coins. The man fiercely turned his head away. Out of sight, out of mind. Motherf * cker, I was much more handsome than you when I was young, okay?! Just when the young man reached out to take the meat naan with a bright smile, an angry voice sounded beside him, "Do you have any shame?!"
Then she stared at the young girl, "How much is it?"
The young girl was stunned and replied, "One meat naan is six copper coins, two are five copper coins."
She turned around with her back to the young man and carefully took out about seven or eight auspicious talismans from a beautiful money pouch. Most of them were small coins of one copper coin, and there were two of them with a discount of two copper coins. There weren't many big coins. Talismans issued during the auspicious talisman era were all new money, and they had nothing to do with the "famous spring water" from the previous dynasty. She muttered to herself, but in the end, she was really reluctant to hand over the five small coins of one copper coin, and she was also reluctant to take out the copper coin with a face value of ten copper coins because she only had these two coins in her money pouch. They came in pairs, and it was not good to separate them. In the end, she could only frown and give the young girl one small coin of one copper coin and two coins with a discount of two copper coins. It was exactly five copper coins to buy two meat naans. The conflicted expression on her face was as if she was watching her daughter get married. The young girl and the woman in the shop didn't know whether to laugh or cry. It was only five copper coins, why was she so reluctant to part with them?
The young man stopped her and said softly with a smile, "Okay, okay, you don't need to spend money. Take it."
The young man with a sword turned his head and looked into the distance. He waved his hand, and soon, a tall and sturdy man with a respectful expression ran over. The young man asked, "Do you have any silver coins?"
The man was also one of the top experts in Snow Lotus City, but he still nodded his head in fear when facing this young man. He took out all the silver coins he had on him, and he was so respectful that he even wanted to give up his life.
The young man only asked for one silver coin and gave it to the young girl. He took the meat naan and said with a smile, "Keep the change."
The young girl, whose heart was swayed by the smile, said sweetly, "Thank you, young master."
The young girl beside him turned her head and put the copper coins back. Her lips moved slightly, and her face was full of disdain. Judging from the shape of her lips, she should be saying the words "Thank you, young master."
The young man smiled and gave her a freshly baked and fragrant meat naan. Then he said, "I won't see you off. Remember not to leave the city on your sword. It's very scary in broad daylight."
The young girl, who was carrying a purple box, took the meat naan and walked straight to the city gate.
He waited until her figure slowly disappeared from his sight, and then he walked away with his back to her.
The tall and sturdy man, who was Madam Song's personal retainer in the Snow Lotus House, kept his head down and didn't dare to look at them.
He lowered his head and bit the meat naan.
The meat naan was covered with scarlet blood.

In the distance, above the clouds, which were as high as the Ninth Heaven, a woman with fluttering clothes stood on the Great Liang Dragon Sparrow and flew with the wind.
Her whole body was bathed in golden light. She held a copper coin above her head and looked at it in a daze.
She knew that he lied to her.
She suddenly felt a little annoyed. She suddenly flew up on her sword and said angrily, "I should have found some copper coins!"
