Chapter 117 The Messenger of Tiandu Mansion Arrives, City Lord Ding's Surprise
As a cultivator in the Star Wheel Realm, his memory is naturally far superior to that of ordinary people.
He once learned that the other party's name was Jiang Zhiwei from the Jiang family's conversation.
I also learned that the other party was acting very strangely.
Since returning to the main house with the members of the branch family, he has been walking alone, with almost no human interaction.
Even if some clansmen wanted to make friends with him, they were still ignored.
It seems that in her eyes, among all things in the world, only the sword in her hand deserves attention.
Other than that, what impressed Gu Xingjian the most.
It was when many members of the Jiang family surrounded him and asked him to teach him swordsmanship.
The other party didn't seem to feel the slightest curiosity, and didn't even come together, just practiced the sword alone, as if immersed in his own world.
This level of concentration was the first time Gu Xingjian encountered it in his life.
Even he himself felt inferior to himself, unable to concentrate on practicing sword day after day.
However, even though he put in so much effort, he was surprised to find that the opponent was only at the perfect level of swordsmanship, and he hadn't even reached the second level of sword energy!
Such kendo qualifications can be said to be extremely bad.
It was so bad that he had never seen the second one in his whole life!
However, this perseverance moved him quite a bit.
Thinking of the patriarch's kindness to him, Gu Xingjian had already completely integrated himself into the Jiang family.
Now seeing the opponent practice so hard, but still unable to improve, he suddenly felt that he could do something.
Thinking of this, Gu Xingjian immediately walked out and came to Jiang Zhiwei's side.
At this moment, Jiang Zhiwei didn't notice the arrival of outsiders, and she was still practicing swords in her own way.
Her expression was extremely focused, and very cold, like a piece of ice that would never melt!
Until Gu Xingjian's voice resounded: "Practicing swords is not like this..."
Jiang Zhiwei was taken aback for a moment, stopped moving, and looked along the source of the sound.
Waiting to find Gu Xingjian standing not far away.
She blinked a few times, her eyes a little dazed.
This damn face blindness has committed again...
A full ten breaths passed.
Jiang Zhiwei didn't even speak, making the scene extremely quiet and embarrassing.
Seeing this, Gu Xingjian frowned, and instantly realized that the other party might not know him.
"What? You have been practicing swords in the martial arts field for so long, and you still don't recognize me?"
The voice sounded again.
Although Jiang Zhiwei still couldn't recognize the other party based on his appearance, she remembered who the other party was from this familiar voice.
So, she cupped her hands and said, "I've seen Gu Gongfeng."
Gu Xingjian had black lines all over his head.
Suddenly, he vaguely understood.
Why are those tribesmen who want to make friends with them indifferently ignored.
Maybe, this little girl... can't remember these people?
Thinking of this, Gu Xingjian's expression gradually became weird.
Immediately afterwards, he stabilized his mind, looked at Jiang Zhiwei again, and said in a deep voice: "I have noticed your hard work these days, but why is your swordsmanship realm clearly stagnant, but unlike others, come to ask me?"
According to his observations, the girl in front of him was concentrating on the sword, but she hardly asked anyone for advice.
Just holding a sword manual, you can study it alone for a long time.
In front of outsiders, Jiang Zhiwei's expression was obviously restrained.
These years of solitary experience have already made her not good at talking with others.
Therefore, facing Gu Xingjian's inquiry, she really didn't know what to say for a while, so she could only choose to remain silent.
The scene fell into deathly silence again.
After dozens of breaths.
Seeing Jiang Zhiwei keeping her head down, her eyes kept scanning the ground.
Gu Xingjian also understood that the rumors were true, the other party was indeed not good at communication.
He didn't want to embarrass the other party, and immediately took out a wooden sword from the Zifu space for training.
Gripping the hilt of the sword tightly, hanging the sword body in front of his chest, the tip of the sword leaned forward, aiming at Jiang Zhiwei.
"Practicing swords alone is a bit boring after all, why don't you let me practice with you?"
He was ready to constantly feed moves and correct the opponent's mistakes during the fight.
At this moment, accompanied by Gu Xingjian's sword.
Jiang Zhiwei raised her head suddenly, her eyes became bright with fighting spirit!
As a sword cultivator, how can he not desire to fight against stronger beings?
Thinking of this, she immediately responded, "Okay."
After saying that, Jiang Zhiwei held the sword in her right hand, rushed out quickly, came to Gu Xingjian, and fought with him!
.........
A month later.
Wudan City, City Lord's Mansion.
in the courtyard.
Ding Xuan is practicing his skills hard, trying to break through to the seventh level of Zifu Realm as soon as possible! !
Since the last time I visited Cangwu Mountain, I saw that old guy Jiang Hongguang broke through Yuanhai Realm.
He suddenly became anxious.
I feel that since I became the city lord, I am still too comfortable and enjoying myself, and I am too slack in my cultivation.
Therefore, during this period of time, he rejected many banquets and practiced with all his strength.
However, just as he was intoxicated by the happiness brought about by cultivation.
The sound of hurried footsteps caught his attention.
Ding Xuan stopped and looked up.
I saw the butler rushing over.
"What's the matter?"
Ding Xuan looked calm and said casually.
The butler walked up to him, pointed to the outside, and said nervously: "My lord, it's Tian... the messenger from Tiandu Mansion is here."
As soon as this remark came out, Ding Xuan frowned, feeling extremely surprised.
You must know that I have been in office for so many years, and I haven't seen the messenger of the Palace Master come.
This matter is indeed a bit strange.
Although Ding Xuan felt extremely puzzled, he also understood that there is no room for neglect, and immediately said: "Please hurry up, let the messenger come to the conference hall for a meeting."
"Yes."
The butler understood the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly nodded in response.
...........
Shortly after.
City Lord's Mansion, in the meeting hall.
Ding Xuan was nervous and sat on the grand master's chair.
Beside him sat a man with a hooked nose.
This person is the messenger who came from Tiandu Mansion.
Wait for the two sides to exchange a few pleasantries.
Then Ding Xuan said in a deep voice: "I don't know why the Messenger came here this time?"
The messenger put away the smile on his face and became more serious: "Not long ago, the Tang family in the capital of heaven was wiped out, did City Lord Ding hear about it?"
As soon as this statement came out, the stone was shocked.
Ding Xuan was astonished, but he couldn't help showing some doubts in his eyes.
As Wudan City is a fringe area within Tiandu Prefecture, the flow of information is relatively slow.
As a result, he has not heard about the destruction of the Tang family in Tiandu.
Thinking of the various strengths of the Tang family in Tiandu.
Even if it is said that it is destroyed, it will be destroyed. The details are simply frightening to think about.
Ding Xuan was very puzzled, and immediately looked at the messenger, asking: "I don't know about this matter, please tell me the messenger."
Hearing this, the messenger patiently began to tell the story of the big event that shocked many forces not long ago.
