A middle-aged man stepped over the threshold of the inn. Such a simple movement made Yin Changgeng and the others feel a breath like a spring breeze.
The man was wearing a white robe with a jade belt. The sleeves were narrow and the body was wide. The robe was made of Sichuan brocade, a first-class tribute of the Liyang Dynasty. The collar and sleeves were inlaid with fine and delicate brocade with golden edges. The big part was simple and elegant, but the small part was noble. Probably only this kind of refined man with a hidden edge could marry the rouge girl with the reputation of "Peach Blossom Horse and Pomegranate Skirt" when he was 20 years old.
The middle-aged man had a long sword hanging from his waist. The scabbard was black and simple, as if it was made from the skin of a python. But what was really strange was that the sword did not have a sword guard or hilt.
Qi Jiajie, the number one swordsman in the capital.
Since he was nine years old, he started practicing with the family heirloom sword "Ban Xiang". In the past thirty years, he traveled north to the two Liao Provinces, south to Jianghuai, east to Jianshi, west to Jiange, and visited all the famous mountains and rivers in the world. During this period, Qi Jiajie changed to the sword "Setting Sun" at the age of 18. He challenged six grandmasters of the sword, including Dongyue Sword Pool Suzerain Song Nianqing, Guangling Spring Snow Building's Chief Minister Chai Qingshan, and Tangxi Sword Saint Lu Baijie. He lost all six battles and returned to the capital for closed-door training. When he came out at the age of 26, he changed to the killing sword "Smelly Tang". At the border of Liaodong, he single-handedly fought eight hundred Beimang cavalry and retreated unscathed, chopping off more than three hundred heads. At the age of 30, he changed to the sword "Chang Yu". It had no edge and no hilt, so if he held the scabbard upside down, the sword would slip out of the scabbard. Since ancient times, the long sword in the world had been called "Chang Yu". Qi Jiajie's intention in changing to this sword was obvious. There were millions of long swords in the world, but only one, "Chang Yu", was enough. As a result, Qi Jiajie and that Northern Mang sword energy that he had changed his name to be close to Yellow Green were known as' Qi Shu Yellow Path ', respectively viewed as the successors of Deng Tai' a and Li Chungang's successive Sword Gods.
After Xuanyuan Qingfeng, Qi Jiajie was ranked as one of the top ten experts of Li Yang. His ranking was even higher than Chai Qingshan, who had returned to the Dongyue Sword Pool to assume the position of Suzerain. What made Qi Jiajie even more famous was that the Purple Dress of Mount Hui, who was known for her loftiness and arrogance, had publicly said, "Mister Qi's realm is one foot lower than mine, and when it comes to killing, I'm ten feet lower than Mister Qi's." This directly caused Qi Jiajie, who had not shown his sword for many years, to reach the peak of his reputation, vaguely gaining the status of the number one expert of the Northern Land in Jianghu.
Seeing Mister Qi come out in person, Gao Shilian and the others felt relieved. In the minds of these juniors in Jing who had heard the name Qi Jiajie since childhood, even if the sky fell, Mister Qi would be able to hold it up with one sword. Although they had guessed that Mister Qi's previous release and withdrawal of sword energy was mostly related to this unknown young master beside them, so what? There had always been a saying in Great Peace City that Mister Qi's true strength was not in his current realm of the sword, but in how Mister Qi's cultivation would be higher than yesterday's. Especially when Lu Baijie resigned from his post as Minister of War and left to take up his post elsewhere. Qi Jiajie had sent him off and even gifted his sword to him. Lu Baijie, the Tangxi Sword Immortal, smiled and said, "Maybe in less than twenty years, I won't even be worthy of being Mister Qi's sword disciple."
Qi Yanglong's knowledge, Tantanon's seal engraving, Qi Jiajie's swordsmanship, and now the chess skills of Li Yang's Chess Saint, Fan Zhanghou.
Of the millions of people in Great Peace City, who would not be proud?
When the young master who had come with the book saw Qi Jiajie walk out, the two exchanged a look. Compared to the young man who had a leisurely attitude and always had the ability to find irrelevant details in the wind and waves, Gao Shiqing found to her shock that Mister Qi had taken the famed sword from his waist for the first time and held it in his hand. At this time, a group of people quickly came from the east end of Escape Summer Town. Zhao Wenwei, who was young and lively, couldn't help but look over. There were four people in the group, men and women of all ages. He only had his eyes on one person. As they came closer, the youth could finally see the person's appearance and could not move his eyes away. It was a woman of the same age who had just started to show signs of being outstanding. Her face, which had some baby fat, was thinning. A beauty with an oval face floated out of the water. Her robes were as white as snow, and she carried a white scabbard longsword on her back. She also had a simple red sandalwood hairpin on her head.
The hairpin was like a sword that flew through her hair.
In this moment, Zhao Wenwei was mesmerized. The saying that there were beauties in books was a lie. How could they be as beautiful as the real woman outside the book?
Everyone had their own eyes. Gao Shiqing's first eyes were on the handsome young master in green robes and holding a sword. She exclaimed, "Li Yibai of the Dongyue Sword Pool?!"
Li Yibai was not only famous in Liyang Lake, but also in Jiangnan and even in the officialdom of the capital. Li Yibai's teacher was Song Nianqing, the head of the Dongyue Sword Pool. His family was a distinguished family. In the past, the top ten magnates of the Spring and Autumn Period valued family status the most. Except for the intermarriage of the ten families, even some of the imperial families who were not of orthodox birth disdained to form an alliance through marriage. However, the Li family that Li Yibai belonged to could become the next best marriage partner of the ten magnates. In the Spring and Autumn Period, there were only eight families that received this honor: Li, Pei, Yu, and Xie. Among them, the Pei family fell into silence after the Shenzhou Continent sank. The most famous person in the family was actually a woman, Pei Nanwei, the concubine of the old King of Jing, Zhao Heng.
Li Yibai's temperament showed the gentleness and elegance of a noble young master in Liyang. With a charming smile, he looked at Gao Shilian and Gao Shiqing and said softly, "I didn't expect to meet Brother Gao and Miss Gao in the northwest."
Since it was Li Yibai who came from the Dongyue Sword Pool, then the identity of the tall old man beside him was revealed. He was Chai Qingshan, one of the few great masters of the sword in the world.
Presumably, Qi Jiajie's majestic sword Qi that filled the small town had attracted this group of people. After Chai Qingshan entered the small town, he did not look at Qi Jiajie, who was at the same level, but at the young man holding the book.
Li Yibai ignored the strange atmosphere under the eaves of the inn and introduced to the Gao siblings with a smile, "My Martial Uncle Chai was a good friend of the Holy Monk of the Dragon Tree in his early years. When he heard that the white-robed monk was going to preach at the Lotus Peak, he specially brought us to Beiliang. As for these two children, they are Martial Uncle Chai's beloved disciples, Song Tinglu and Shan Yiyi. What are you waiting for? Quickly call Brother Gao and Sister Gao. "
