Chapter 98 Farewell (Subscription Request)

A few days later, Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng walked out of the dilapidated Taoist temple, both looking a little solemn.

"Senior Sister, I didn't expect the situation over there to be so bad." Lu Cheng said in a low voice.

Zhan Hongxiu lowered her head and thought, "It's much worse than I thought, but that's why it's worth going."

"Don't forget, the current situation is the result of the hard work of Master and his friends."

"Ah."

Lu Cheng nodded and was about to continue speaking when he suddenly stopped and looked ahead.

"This, is this Jianfeng Mountain?"

Zhan Hongxiu raised her head and her eyes also widened a little.

The two of them stared blankly at the familiar yet unfamiliar scene around them.

At this moment, Jianfeng Mountain was decorated with lights and red lanterns were hung on every tree with the word "sword" written on it.

There are bells under the lanterns, and as the mountain breeze blows, the tinkling sounds rise and fall.

It was like the sound of swords, echoing throughout the Jianfeng Mountain.

"How is this going?"

At this time, Li Qingzhou, who had sensed something, came out, looked at the surrounding scene, and said with a smile:

"Your Junior Brother Chen Yi specially prepared this for you. It should be a farewell party for you."

"Go ahead. There's no need to think too much before you leave. It won't be too late to make plans once you get there."

Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng looked at each other, saluted, and left quickly.

Soon, the laughter of people on the mountain could be heard outside.

Li Qingzhou saw this and couldn't help showing a look of relief on his face.

Since returning from the Taizhou Mountain battlefield, he has become more relaxed.

In addition to the fact that Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng have achieved academic success and can go to the Taizhou Mountain battlefield to help him, the more important thing is his disciple Chen Yi.

What Li Qingzhou was attracted to Chen Yi was not his sword skills, but his character.

The passion and nature of young people are most valuable.

"I hope he can always maintain this mentality..."

At this moment, Chen Yi didn't know that his casual action would make Li Qingzhou value him so much.

He was directing several outer disciples to put various slices of meat and vegetables into the copper furnace one by one, and they were busy.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to prepare a five-foot-wide copper stove, otherwise the freshly cooked slices of meat would not be enough for them to eat.

Even so, Zhan Hongxiu, who was obviously drunk, was still shouting that it was not enough and asked for faster food.

"Sister, don't worry, let Junior Brother Chen prepare more."

Ning Xue didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She helped pour the wine while asking Hua Youxiang and others to come over to help.

But those eyes were looking at Chen Yi, whose forehead was covered with sweat, and he felt an inexplicable sense of gratitude in his heart.

In fact, she was a little sad about the departure of Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng.

But after this farewell banquet, Ning Xue couldn't wait for them to leave.

Not only do they eat and drink a lot, they are also very noisy.

Even the sadness in her heart was diluted a lot.

"Junior Sister Ning, it's rare that I'm happy today, why don't you drink some too?"

"No, no no... eh?"

Unable to resist Zhan Hongxiu's "persuasion", Ning Xue drank a lot of wine and passed out.

When she was finally conscious, she only remembered shaking off Zhan Hongxiu's obstruction, running to Chen Yi and saying some words of gratitude.

Not sure what other people were thinking, but Chen Yi didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He didn't expect that Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng were not drunk yet, and the first person to get drunk would be Mr. Ning Xuening.

"Brother, come quickly."

"Junior Sister Ning is not here, so it's your turn now."

At this moment, Zhan Hongxiu's words made Chen Yi's face change slightly.

Well, it seems he can't escape either.

The day after the banquet, Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng left Jianfeng Mountain.

No one knows when they left.

Ning Xue, who had just woken up from a hangover, washed up and walked out of the room, only then did she find the letter they left behind.

After reading the letter, there was no sadness on her face, but a smile.

"Big Sister, Second Brother, I hope you are all safe and sound."

But soon, she stopped laughing.

Ning Xue suddenly recalled her behavior after she got drunk last night. Her face turned red with shame and she quickly ran back to the room.

one day.

No, you can’t go out and see anyone for three days!
……

After Zhan Hongxiu and Lu Cheng left, Jianfeng Mountain returned to peace.

Chen Yi once again became the instructor who taught Hua Youxiang and others to practice kendo.

However, this time, he discovered several differences from before his swordsmanship was improved.

One is the understanding of swordsmanship.

He had a new understanding of the sword technique, which he originally thought no longer needed to be modified.

The second is to provide guidance on swordsmanship to Hana Youxiang and others.

It's not about swordsmanship, but it directly points out the direction of their respective swordsmanship and the parts they are each missing.

For example, flowers are fragrant.

"Junior Sister Erhua, your swordsmanship is too impetuous. It is sharp but has obvious drawbacks."

This is not only a flaw in Hana Yuka's swordsmanship, but also a character flaw.

Before, Chen Yi couldn't see it clearly, but now he can directly provide her with some directions.

Hua Youxiang followed his instructions, not quite understanding what he was saying. After making improvements, her eyes became brighter and brighter.

She only felt that her sword skills, which had been a little sluggish before, were now more handy. The techniques were still the same, but after using them, both the accuracy and power were greatly improved.

"Brother, I feel like my sword bottleneck has loosened!"

Now it was Chen Yi's turn to be stunned.

He was just pointing out the problems in Hua Youxiang's swordsmanship from the perspective of Tongyoujing swordsmanship in order to improve her strength.

Who would have thought that this would lead to a breakthrough in her swordsmanship?

However, before Chen Yi could figure it out, he saw Li Mingyue, Lu Youxiang and several fellow disciples who were going to take part in the sect's small examination surrounding him.

"Brother, you can't be partial to one and neglect the other..."

Chen Yi was speechless, and then he gave instructions one by one.

He had no selfish thoughts and only hoped that these fellow disciples could improve their cultivation as much as possible.

It was not for the sect's test, but so that they could have the power to protect themselves.

However, this teaching did not last long.

When Li Qingzhou finished his own affairs and decided to personally teach Hua Youxiang and others before the sect's small examination, Chen Yi was relieved.

Before he had time to check on the cultivation progress of Lin Xueru, Flower Fairy and others, Sun Zhengqiu came over first.

"Sir, there is news over there."

"Oh?"

"I followed your instructions and proposed to report it in person, and they have agreed."

Sun Zhengqiu took out the secret letter and handed it to him, "The time is set at midnight two days later, and the location is in the capital of Jeju Prefecture."

Chen Yi took a look at the secret letter and nodded.

"I'll go with you in two days."

"During this time, go to Sifang Tower again. I want to know how Jingye Hou lost his troops when he was stationed at Beixiong Pass last time."

During this period, Chen Yi occasionally thought of "Qianlong", especially his speculation that it was short of money.

At first he had no idea.

However, after identifying Zhou Tiance as the person behind "Hidden Dragon", he thought of the news that came from Beixiong Pass before.

It suddenly occurred to him that perhaps it was not "Qianlong" who was short of money, but Jingye Hou Zhou Tiance who was short of money.

Although it will take another seven or eight years for Zhou Tiance to garrison at Beixiong Pass, it is still in accordance with the court's usual practice.

Last time we focused on the dedicated army, next time we will certainly reduce the funding for the dedicated army.

Perhaps it was because of this that Zhou Tiance thought of using "Qianlong" to raise money to build the Jingye Army.

Of course, these are all inferred by Chen Yi from various intelligence sources.

He has not even confirmed whether the person behind "Qianlong" is Jingye Hou Zhou Tiance.

"It should be soon..."

……

Two days later.

It was early spring and it was still a bit chilly on Jianfeng Mountain.

Chen Yi did not wear the Taoist robe, but changed into a light and gorgeous outfit, put on a long hat, and tied up his long hair.

After hanging the Spring Rain Sword around his waist, he looked at himself in the bronze mirror and a smile appeared on his face.

"It's a nice day."

Chen Yi didn't say any witty remarks like "handsome and cool". After all, he was going to kill someone and he couldn't spoil the fun.

Soon, he found Li Qingzhou and asked for leave to go down the mountain, which was naturally granted.

In Li Qingzhou's opinion, although the cultivation level of disciple Chen Yi was not satisfactory, with his sword skills, he could go to Tianyuan Continent if he was careful.

As long as it’s not the old guys who take action, I believe he will be fine.

"Go quickly and come back quickly, don't play around too much."

Chen Yi smiled, then left Taixu Taoist Sect and headed for the capital of Jizhou Prefecture.

He had lost the desire to play a long time ago.

Probably since he just learned to talk?

Halfway through the journey, Chen Yi and Sun Zhengqiu met up.

"Sir, I followed your instructions and found out from Sifanglou why the Jingye Army suffered losses at Beixiong Pass."

Chen Yi didn't say anything, but waved his hand to signal him to continue.

Sun Zhengqiu: "I don't know why, but before Jingye Hou stationed at Beixiong Pass, neither Wu'an Hou nor Taishan Hou could stop the demons in the north."

"And when Jingye Hou Zhou Tiance and his Jingye Army changed their guard, those demons swarmed southward."

"Although it is not as good as the time thirty years ago when the Demon King personally led the army south, the several sieges have caused considerable losses to the Jingye Army."

Chen Yi frowned and asked, "Does Sifanglou know the reason?"

"The manager said he didn't know, but I noticed something was wrong with his expression. I guess they must have some information in their hands."

Sun Zhengqiu looked at his expression and said hesitantly, "How about I go there again tonight and spend more money to try it out?"

Chen Yi thought for a moment and shook his head.

"Being not."

He knew in his heart that no matter what the reason was for Sifanglou not to provide that information, it showed that there must be secrets hidden inside and outside Beixiong Pass.

Those secrets may be related to Beixiong Pass itself, may be related to demons, or more likely to Jingye Hou and Jingye Army.

"Let's talk about it after we meet the man called 'Hidden Dragon'."

"My subordinate understands."

Soon, the two of them dispersed and entered the city of Jeju Prefecture.

Chen Yi just followed from a distance and did not appear within a hundred feet of Sun Zhengqiu.

With his current sword skills and eyesight, it is not difficult for him to keep an eye on someone.

It was not until nearly nightfall that Chen Yi saw Sun Zhengqiu walk into a restaurant and sit on the second floor with a man wearing a bronze mask.

"Lone Wolf, what do you want from me?"
