It was probably the first time in her life that the little girl, who had been living in the temple since she was a child, heard Hsu Fengnian's praise. She felt relieved after putting on rouge for the first time in her life. Just as she was about to laugh, the rouge on her face fell. She felt sorry for her, so she put on a straight face again and stood timidly by the swing. The little monk was dumbstruck. He probably did not recognize that the fairy in front of him was the girl he liked the most. As the head maid of Wutong Garden, Sweet Potato was good at drawing eyebrows and applying rouge. Seeing the little girl wasting God's gift and Royal Highness helping the villain, Sweet Potato did not dare to laugh. She could only stand further away. Although the little girl's appearance, temperament, and behavior were ordinary, she was still a distinguished guest invited by His Highness. She could not be disrespectful. Hsu Fengnian still had to go to the Tide-listening Pavilion, so he asked Sweet Potato to "slightly" correct the little girl. A few boxes of rouge money were nothing. They could not really go out and scare people. It was still okay in the daytime, but at night...
Before going to the top of the pavilion to see his master Li Yishan, Hsu Fengnian went to the second floor to find White Fox Face. He was standing on the ladder and reading the secret manuals on the bookshelf. His Spring Thunder Saber was hanging on his waist with a red string tied to the hilt. The books that Hsu Fengnian brought to Wudang from the library were all picked by White Fox Face. Although both of them practiced the saber, White Fox Face was much better than Hsu Fengnian in terms of saber skills and attainment. Their cultivation was just like at this moment, one was at the bottom of the ladder and the other was at the top of the ladder. White Fox Face was very focused. No matter what he did, he strived to see through to the end. Hsu Fengnian waited for him to finish reading the secret manuals.
White Fox walked down the ladder and looked at the idiot Xu Fengnian whom she had not seen for a year. Finally, her eyes focused on the spot between His Royal Highness's eyebrows. Xu Fengnian's appearance was undoubtedly very outstanding. He had the typical red phoenix eyes and silkworm eyebrows. When he smiled, he looked even more charming and elegant. It was just that he met White Fox during his travels when he was at the lowest point of his life. However, when he occasionally washed his face in the stream, even White Fox would be surprised. This idiot's appearance was indeed good, but his temperament did not match. Now, practicing the saber by hook or by crook seemed to be different. What exactly was the difference? White Fox did not ask any questions. Instead, he slashed out with his Spring Thunder in a domineering manner.
Xiu Dong, which was originally born from the same root, took the opportunity to strike down.
When White Fox Face saw that his attack did not work, he exclaimed in surprise, "Did you learn the superior swordsmanship in Wudang?"
Hsu Fengnian, whose right hand was numb from holding the saber, slowly put Xiu Dong back into the scabbard. He smiled and said, "No, I didn't. It's just that Taoist Ox Nose gave me a book called Qingshui Pavilion Sword Practice Manual. When I was bored, I used the sword moves in it on my saber skills. Are you interested? This is a secret manual of Wudang's swordsmanship. I can't bring it down the mountain, but I've memorized the contents. Can I make a copy for you? "
White Fox Face nodded his head without hesitation. Hsu Fengnian followed him to the corridor on the second floor. White Fox Face said softly, "The world of the old Nine Kingdoms of the Central Plains was almost the world of the rich and powerful families. The aristocrats were numerous. King Langya, Jiayang Xie, Wukang Yao, Bolingcui, Lujiang He were all rich and powerful. If the pillars of the country only destroyed cities and countries, killed hundreds of thousands of surrendered soldiers, stabbed or hanged the emperor of the enemy country to death, these would not be a big deal in the eyes of some people. However, Xu Xiao did what he did to Mount Tai to surpass the North Sea. He destroyed nearly half of the ten rich families. The entire Wukang Yao family of the Southern Tang, regardless of age and age, died. The He family of the Dongyue Lujiang only had about twenty orphans and widows left.
Hsu Fengnian was puzzled by White Fox Face's words. He said, "I know all these. Master mentioned them before."
White Fox Face smiled and said, "Don't worry. I'm from the Nangong family of Beimang. I have no grudges with you. I'm telling you this because I want to talk about the Nine Grades System that has been maintained by the aristocrats for two hundred years. "
Hsu Fengnian nodded and said, "The masters in the world now seem to follow this system to rank. It saves effort."
White Fox Face said softly, "Like the Number One in the World, under normal circumstances, the Nine Grades System does not rank the Upper Grades. In the eyes of the world, only the Saints are qualified."
Xu Fengnian smiled and said, "Yes, but I heard that a few decades ago, there was a scholar of the Xie family who was talented and outstanding. His martial arts attainments were even more extraordinary. He and my master commented on the rivers and mountains. Li Yishan commented on the generals and rouge. The mainstay of the Xie family commented on the martial arts, which was even more important to the people of Jianghu. As for the literary commentary, he only finished half of it and died? My second sister seemed to have the intention to continue the commentary. However, she also said that she was unable to do it for the time being. There was still a long way to go before the great talent of the Xie family. "
The limelight of the Northern Xie and the Southern Li had attracted the attention of the world back then.
White Fox Face said calmly, "That person is my father. He's dead. Those who are on the Martial Arts Ranking List want to kill him. Those who are not on the Martial Arts Ranking List also want to kill him. There's no reason for him not to die. "
Hsu Fengnian was shocked. He smiled bitterly and said, "No wonder you want to be the Number One in the World."
White Fox Face looked at Hsu Fengnian and said slowly, "Your moves are now at the Middle Lower Grades, the Blade Force is at the Middle Upper Grades, and the Inner Strength is at the Lower Lower Grades. It's not impossible for you to catch up with me."
Hsu Fengnian was stunned. "Really?"
White Fox Face's lips curled up slightly. "If I stagnate after the age of forty, it's possible for you."
Hsu Fengnian leaned on the railing and said softly, "You're still as honest as ever, just like Old Huang."
White Fox Face glanced at the Winter Embroidery Blade that was not covered with dust. The last bit of regret in her heart disappeared. She said softly, "How many more years can you fool the world?"
