The Name of Eternity.

Chapter 104: A Paper to Suppress the Whole House
Li Hao frowned slightly.

He remembered that he had told Xue'er that there was no need for her to help invite his master to come down the mountain and support him.

Meaningless.

After an absence of eight years, Jian Wudao stepped into this mansion again.

As soon as he entered Shanheyuan, he saw the young man lying on the old chair and basking in the sun, looking very comfortable.

I thought a young man like this should be practicing all the time, but I didn't expect him to be so leisurely.

But maybe it's normal for them to relax a little bit as the war is approaching.

Behind Jian Wudao, there were four figures following, all of them were his disciples, three men and one woman. The one with the highest level of cultivation had already entered the third realm of immortality.

The four of them also looked at Li Hao, with surprise and curiosity in their eyes.

"Brother Hao."

Bian Ruxue came over jogging, smiling, and said, "I asked Master and the others to come down the mountain."

Although his sweet dream was disturbed, Li Hao could not blame the girl for her kindness. He had to stand up, throw the poetry collection aside, and watch the sword master approaching, and finally sighed in his heart.

It was he who took the little tail away, but it was he who let the little tail go.

But the one who really said goodbye to himself was Little Tail himself.

In this case, who can we blame?
Li Hao didn't blame anyone because he had already taken those extra steps.

Therefore, after a deep sigh, Li Hao put aside all his distracting thoughts, and said with a smile: "Master Sword Saint, how are you?"

"Ok?"

Jian Wudao was slightly surprised and asked, "Do you still remember me?"

"Master Jian has such extraordinary grace, how could I forget him?" Li Hao said with a smile.

Jian Wudao raised his eyebrows slightly, thinking that this extremely talented young man must be high-spirited and arrogant, or he must be depressed and practicing, and have a solitary personality.

Unexpectedly, it was like a breeze without any joy or sorrow, exuding a sense of freedom in the mountains.

"Marquis Xing Wu gave birth to a good son. The third generation of the Li family will soar into the sky again."

Jian Wudao said calmly.

Li Hao smiled, and the polite conversation was over.

Jian Wudao's gaze fell on the arms of the girl dressed as a maid next to him, who was holding a black sword box.

Just as he said many years ago, a sword fanatic can see the sword among ten thousand weapons at a glance.

When he entered Shanheyuan, he naturally saw the black sword box at first sight, and then he turned his attention to the young man.

Seeing this sword box, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he asked: "Is this Eternal Night?"

"Have you met Master Jian?"

"It bloomed briefly, but unfortunately it became silent."

Jian Wudao looked calm and said, "I am a little unworthy of this name. Eternal Night should cover the sky forever, so that everyone in the world will know about it!"

"Is Mr. Jian always blaming my Uncle Jiu?" Li Hao said calmly.

Jian Wudao indeed had this idea, although he felt that he should not say it out loud, but his inner respect for the sword made him extremely dissatisfied when he learned that the sword had been covered in dust and completely sealed.

He had gone to the government house to ask for it, and was willing to exchange it for other promises.

But the old lady drove him out.

However, he was just speaking casually today. It had been many years and there was no point in bringing it up again, especially to a junior.

"My uncle's sword entered the world three years ago, and it has gone from being an unknown sword to a world-famous sword. How can I be ashamed of it?"

Li Hao said calmly: "Besides, if my uncle was still alive, everyone in the world would know about this sword. Of course, if the Sword Saint was willing to help my uncle kill enemies and monsters outside instead of just sitting in the sword house, this sword should be the best sword in the world now, right?"

Hearing the sarcasm in Li Hao's words, Jian Wudao's face changed slightly.

The four people behind him were also stunned, and then their faces changed. The middle-aged man in the lead said in a deep voice:

"Master Li, please apologize to my master!"

Li Hao just glanced at the other person, chuckled, and said nothing.

This is Shanheyuan, not Jianlu.

Bian Ruxue didn't expect that her master and Li Hao would have an argument as soon as they met. She was stunned and couldn't help feeling nervous and anxious.

Jian Wudao stared at Li Hao, his eyes slightly colder, and said calmly:

"Li Jiulang is indeed gifted. Now I am passing the sword on to you. Are you worthy of this sword?"

"This sword was forged by my Li family using precious irons collected from all over the world. Whether it is worthy of the sword or not is not for outsiders to judge." Li Hao said with a smile.

"Brother Hao."

Bian Ruxue couldn't help but scream.

Li Hao glanced at her and saw that she was caught in a dilemma, so his smile faded slightly.

Many years ago, in this yard, it seemed to be at this location.

However, the little girl stood by him without hesitation and spoke for him everywhere.

When she heard that she was going to be taken away, the little girl cried and said that she didn't like sword anymore and would never practice sword again...

The time of those days can never come back.

Just like the fallen autumn leaves in the yard, after they fall, they can never go back to the trees.

Even if the spring breeze blows again next year, new buds will emerge...

At this time, several figures hurried in from the inner courtyard. It was Li Tiangang, with Yu Xuan and Li Fu following behind him.

"Senior Sword Master!"

Li Tiangang called out from a distance when he saw Jian Wudao, then stepped forward and bowed slightly:
"I didn't expect you to come and support me. I'm honored to be here."

Jian Wudao was a strong man of his father's generation. When he was a child, he even came to his father to practice with him.

However, although his father's overall combat power was enough to defeat Jian Wudao, he was not an expert in kendo, and therefore he was defeated many times in kendo competitions.

"No need to support me."

Jian Wudao said calmly: "I came here for Xue'er's sake to join in the fun and have a drink. I wonder if the God General's Mansion welcomes you."

"You are welcome."

Li Tiangang was slightly surprised, thinking there was something harsh in the Sword Saint's words. He glanced at Li Hao beside him and immediately understood that it must be because Li Hao had a casual personality and did not entertain him well enough.

He immediately smiled and said, "Master Jian, please follow me to the inner courtyard. Xue'er is a very talented child. It is a blessing for her to be able to practice under the name of the Sword Saint."

Seeing that the marshal who had been in charge of the army for many years was so polite, Jian Wudao smiled and followed him into the courtyard. He ignored Li Hao beside him. After all, there was a huge difference in seniority between them, so there was no point in arguing with a junior.

The disciples behind Jian Wudao also realized that it was pointless to argue with Li Hao.

I came here to do someone a favor, but ended up having a quarrel. That would be a real waste.

But deep down, I felt a little unhappy and displeased towards this young man who was famous in Qingzhou.

After they all left, Bian Ruxue stood beside Li Hao, looking hesitant, and said, "Brother Hao, are you angry?"

Li Hao sat back in his chair and smiled, "No, there's nothing to be angry about."

Bian Ruxue said: "My master is very serious about swords, so sometimes his words may not sound nice. Brother Hao, don't take it to heart."

Li Hao smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm not angry."

Bian Ruxue glanced at him twice, and seeing that he really didn't look angry, she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I saw that Li Qianfeng had asked the Bodhisattva of Wuliang Mountain to support him, so I invited Master here."

"For your trouble."

Li Hao understood her good intentions and said with a smile: "Go and accompany your master. He is unfamiliar with the place. I will stay in the sun for a while."

"Ok."

Upon hearing this, Bian Ruxue nodded.

After Bian Ruxue left, Li Hao opened the poetry collection again, covered his face with it, and continued to bask in the sun.

Next to her, Ren Qianqian held the sword case and looked towards the inner courtyard frequently.

Her heart was in her throat just now. The sword master's aura was so strong that she felt like trembling all over.

This is the world-famous sword master!
But the young man in front of her was calm and composed, showing no fear at all. She was afraid that he would get angry and teach Li Hao a lesson.

But Ren Qianqian was worrying too much. In the God General's Mansion, no matter whether Li Hao made a mistake or not, Jian Wudao would not take action even if he was in a bad mood. Otherwise, it would not only hurt Li Hao, but also the reputation of the entire God General's Mansion.

At the same time, compared to the quiet network in Shanhe Courtyard, the Shuihua Courtyard is extremely noisy and lively.

The hall was packed with guests, the inner courtyard was full, and even the outer courtyard was packed with people.

The yard was full of maids and servants, busy serving.

……

……

In the Tan Palace Academy.

Many disciples in the White Palace wanted to go down the mountain and go to the Divine General's Mansion to join in the fun, to support Li Hao, and to see what decision the Li family's true dragon would make.

But they were all stopped by Song Yufeng's ban.

Sun Hongdian, the instructor, was very experienced in the ways of the world. He slowly explained the reasons for the ban to all the disciples.

There are two reasons.

First, with Li Hao's talent, it is certain that he can capture the real dragon without the support of others.

Secondly, there is no need for Tan Gong Academy to add icing on the cake and stir up trouble.

One of the disciples immediately shouted, "But Zhou Zheng is gone!" Sun Hongdian angrily rebuked, "He went with his father. His father is an old subordinate of Xing Wuhou. Is your father the same?"

The disciple fell silent immediately. Obviously, his father was not that person.

On the edge of the cold pond.

Two figures stood here, gazing into the distance below the mountain. They could faintly feel the prosperity there and the many powerful auras gathered there.

"That boy drew so many pictures for you, don't you want to go and take a look?"

Song Yufeng put his hands behind his back and looked at Song Qiumo beside him with a smile.

Song Qiumo glanced at him and said, "If I go, aren't you afraid of bringing Tan Gong in?"

"Of course I'm not afraid."

Song Yufeng smiled and said, "The Li family is not unreasonable. Besides, that kid will definitely be able to take down the real dragon. Why should we be afraid of supporting him?"

Song Qiumo snorted: "If you are not afraid, why would you come to see me?"

"The little guy hasn't been up the mountain for several days. I see you standing here waiting every day, and I'm afraid you'll be bored." Song Yufeng said with a smile.

Song Qiumo rolled his eyes: "I'm waiting for him to send some shortbread."

"I didn't say what you were waiting for."

Song Yufeng smiled and said, "Besides, you can go down the mountain and buy it yourself."

Song Qiumo said unhappily: "I promised your ancestors that I would stay here."

"Why trap yourself for a lifetime just for a promise?"

Song Yufeng sighed and said, "Besides, you have been guarding for nearly a thousand years. My Song family is grateful to you."

Song Qiumo was silent.

After a moment, he said, "Come to think of it, he is also your teacher in Tan Palace, why don't you go?"

Song Yufeng laughed, put his hands behind his back, and said:

"I can only help when the situation calls for it, not add icing on the cake."

……

……

In Shanhe Courtyard, in addition to the Sword Saint and others, some other people came one after another.

Most of them were people that Li Tiangang had visited during this period, and they all came to the hospital to support Li Hao.

The inner courtyard was full of guests. Li Tiangang sat in the main hall, chatting and socializing with everyone. From time to time, loud laughter from some middle-aged men could be heard.

The rest of the young people, who were not many in number, were all in the inner courtyard, secretly watching the young master basking in the sun in the front yard. There was curiosity in their eyes, but they did not dare to get close.

At the age of fourteen, Fifteen Mile Realm, this title is too loud and intimidating.

"Master Li."

A figure appeared beside Li Hao. Li Hao opened the poetry collection and saw a familiar face.

Being alone with Li Hao, Zhou Zheng looked a little nervous, especially when he thought of the hundreds of poems in the brothel that day. He felt both respect and admiration for this peer.

"How did you come."

Li Hao was slightly surprised. He glanced behind the other person, but saw that there were no other students. He then breathed a sigh of relief.

With the status and position of the Tan Palace, there is no need for them to get involved. After all, there are students from the Tan Palace all over the world, and if they are too closely tied to the Divine General's Mansion, it may not be a good thing.

Some relationships are best, longest-lasting and hard to destroy when they are ambiguous.

"I came here with my father." Zhou Zheng said respectfully.

Li Hao suddenly realized, nodded, and asked him to sit down and not to be restrained.

The two casually talked about poetry. Many people were surprised to see Zhou Zheng talking to Li Hao, and secretly remembered the appearance of this young man to avoid offending him in the future.

Wait until noon.

Li Tiangang brought all the guests in the hall and asked Yu Xuan to call Li Hao to his side. The father and son walked in front, bringing the Sword Saint and others, as well as other guests in the hall, to Chen Hefang's courtyard.

There are already huge crowds of people here, it's extremely crowded.

Liu Yuerong and others had arrived first, and the guests who came to support Li Qianfeng had also taken their seats.

Most of the seats were occupied from the inner courtyard to the outer courtyard according to their status.

With the arrival of Li Tiangang and others, the noise at the scene died down a little, and everyone turned their eyes to them.

When they saw Jian Wudao beside Li Tiangang, many people's faces changed slightly and they exclaimed in low voices.

Many people did not expect that Li Tiangang could actually invite this old sword saint to support his child.

After all, he was the top powerhouse in the Four Stages Realm. He was said to be indifferent to fame and gain, and had been sitting in his sword pavilion all year round. Yet he was invited to come down the mountain.

However, some people did not find it strange to learn that Li Hao's fiancée was a disciple of the Sword Saint.

After entering the inner courtyard, under the arrangement of the old lady's butler, they were arranged to sit according to their official positions, status in the martial arts world, strength and cultivation, etc. This is an extremely meticulous and huge job, and one must try to ensure that no mistakes are made.

After all, most of the people here attach great importance to "reputation".

Jian Wudao and his disciples naturally entered the inner courtyard.

As they arrived, the guests at Liu Yuerong's place became much quieter in their chatter and cast wary glances at them.

The four disciples around Jian Wudao had smiles and pride in their eyes as they glanced at the young master of the Li family not far away.

Thinking of the other party's previous rude words, he sneered in his heart.

Look, this is the card my master brought you!
"Sword Saint, long time no see."

Several figures came towards us, and the one standing in the middle was the Bodhisattva of Wuliang Mountain.

This Bodhisattva had a fair complexion and appeared to be middle-aged. He was dressed in clean robes and had hair as black as black jade. He spoke with a smile on his face.

Jian Wudao's eyes narrowed slightly. The Bodhisattva of Wuliang Mountain was an extremely difficult being to deal with.

"I didn't expect to meet you here, Jian Wudao."

Next to the Bodhisattva was another middle-aged man, dressed in luxurious attire and looking disdainful.

Jian Wudao said calmly: "The battle of swords and sabers has not yet come to a conclusion. Let's try again when we have a chance."

The opponent was a northern sword master. He had sparred with him many years ago, but to no avail.

"Nice to meet you. I've heard of your great name as the Sword Saint for a long time. Haha..." another old man laughed.

He was short, dressed in a green robe, and had a beard that fell to his belly.

Jian Wudao's face was calm: "Aren't you from the Demon Suppression Division going to suppress the demons?"

"Just come and have a drink, no need to waste time." The old man said with a smile.

The guests at other tables all held their breath slightly.

There are four top figures who are rarely seen in normal days, strong men in the Four Li Realms, and they are all here at once.

The faces of several disciples behind Jian Wudao also changed slightly. They thought that with the support of their master, Li Hao would at least be evenly matched. They didn't expect that the other party would invite three people.

After a brief collision, everyone returned to their seats.

Jian Wudao looked cold and looked at Li Tiangang, saying, "If you only invite me, I'm afraid I won't be able to handle this situation."

Li Tiangang smiled bitterly. He had expected this and said, "There is another senior on his way."

"who is it?"

"The Lord of Tianjian Mountain."

Jian Wudao's eyes moved slightly, and he said, "It turned out to be that guy. I haven't seen him for a long time."

Li Tiangang sighed secretly, it was a pity that even if that person came, he would still be slightly inferior, but fortunately the gap was not that big.

He glanced at his son Li Hao and saw that he looked nonchalant. He felt helpless because the Sword Saint was invited by Xue'er and he was the one who invited the master of Tianjian Mountain. Although his son had a high level of cultivation, he had no connections at all.

Just as Li Tiangang was sighing in his heart, a voice suddenly came into the inner courtyard:
"Report - Wuliangshan Arhat is visiting!"

Then, a middle-aged man in a cassock was seen walking into the inner courtyard with a smile. When he saw the Bodhisattva sitting as the guest of honor, he immediately nodded and chanted a Buddhist name.

Then he glanced at Li Tiangang's side, and when he saw that there was only one table of guests in the inner courtyard, he seemed a little surprised, and then stood in the middle and said:
"Disciple is here under orders, where is Qian Kun Jin Gang?"

Li Qianfeng was slightly surprised and stood up and walked forward: "Li Qianfeng is here, meet Luohan."

"The Infinite Buddha asked me to give a string of Buddhist beads to Qiankun Vajra." The arhat said with a smile.

Of course he knew Li Qianfeng, and he deliberately spoke so loudly at this moment just to add to his momentum.

Sure enough, after hearing what the arhat said, all the guests in the courtyard were stunned and looked at each other in shock.

The Buddha who sits high on the Wuliang Mountain actually stands up for the other party?
Jian Wudao and Li Tiangang's expressions both changed slightly, becoming somewhat gloomy.

With the Buddha showing up, even if the master of Tianjian Mountain came, it would be useless.

"If I had known this, Xue'er wouldn't have had to work so hard."

Jian Wudao shook his head and his expression returned to calm. If he had known this would happen, he would not have had to go down the mountain.

Li Tiangang's body trembled slightly when he heard this and he sighed. This was indeed impossible to compare with, but fortunately, connections were not decisive.

"Thank you, Master."

In front of everyone, Li Qianfeng took the Buddhist beads from the arhat and thanked him respectfully.

Luohan smiled slightly and was about to say something when suddenly another voice came from behind:
"Report!!"

"Emperor Yu has arrived with a handwritten decree. Li Hao, the son of the Li family, is here to receive the decree!!"

In an instant, the whole yard was silent.
