Volume 19: Legend of Lu Xiaofeng Chapter 460: Azure Dragon Enters the Sea
The sea.
In the vast ocean, I am isolated and helpless.
Only when a person actually sets out on a boat and reaches the sea can he experience this feeling of loneliness.
No matter which direction you look, it's the same. The water on all sides is exactly the same. The sea is blue, the sky is blue, the sea and the sky are the same color, without even the slightest change.
When Su Weiyun boarded the boat to go out to sea, it was already afternoon. The sky was clear and the wind was warm.
The ship was neither big nor small. Apart from the three crew members, there were only Su Weiyun and Minister He, so there was more than enough room for them to sit on it.
There was sufficient supply of dry food, fresh water and meat on the boat. The old man even generously gave Su Weiyun five hundred taels of silver as travel expenses.
It was a rare opportunity for Su Weiyun to go out to sea, and luckily, Minister He was there to chat with him and talk about the latest events in the martial arts world over the past ten years, so it wasn't too boring.
The old man was indeed very thoughtful.
——But why was the old man so nice to him?
"But why is the old man so nice to you?"
Minister He also asked the same question.
Ten years passed, and Minister He's beard gradually grew longer, his hands looked a little rough, and there was a sense of vicissitudes in his eyes.
Although he still looked nonchalant, unrestrained and crazy, he was obviously very different. The only thing that had not changed was that his crown was still worn straight and neatly.
Su Weiyun said calmly: "Because he was afraid that I would kill Gong Jiu. So he asked me to leave quickly."
Minister He showed an expression that made sense but was unexpected. He nodded thoughtfully and said, "Does the Lord already have the strength to kill the Ninth Prince Gong?"
After he finished speaking, he immediately smiled bitterly: "Master...Master...I haven't read this name for a long time."
Su Weiyun said: "Yes, we have not met since we parted at the Tianxiang Hall in the northwest and the battle with the Demon Cult."
Minister He said, "I sent the bodies of Little Mustache and Old Scholar back to Nameless Island. When I arrived in Central Plains, I could no longer find the whereabouts of the master. I had no choice but to return."
Su Weiyun asked, "What do people in the martial arts world say?"
Minister He said, "They think that the Lord has gone into seclusion to practice and seek a breakthrough. Because the Fifth Young Master Long of the Azure Dragon Society, Liu Changjie, and Bai Yujing, all disappeared at the same time as you. "
Su Weiyun was a little surprised and asked, "Are they all gone?"
Minister He nodded and said, "Yes. They all disappeared. Or retired from the underworld. Of course, each of them had a very good reason."
"What's the reason?"
"Mr. Long Wu said that Madam Xiangsi had died and he had no more ties to the martial arts world, so he retired. A dragon is hard to find, so few people can find his whereabouts."
"Where's Bai Yujing?"
Minister He said, "Did Bai Yujing give you the Immortal Sword?"
He looked at the sword on Su Weiyun's waist, feeling so much emotion that he didn't know what to say.
How could a swordsman give his sword to another person for safekeeping? Not to mention a peerless swordsman like Bai Yujing.
Even though he had already cultivated to become a great master, he still could not understand what Bai Yujing had done.
Minister He said: "After Bai Yujing retired from the sword, no news about him has been heard for ten years. Some people speculate that Bai Yujing is dead."
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "He won't die. There are twelve towers and five cities in the White Jade Palace in the sky. The immortal stroked my head and I was given immortality. Immortals won't die, so how can the Immortality Sword die?"
Minister He said: "Liu Changjie is even simpler. He is a 'little person' who hides his whereabouts in the downtown area. If he doesn't want to show up, no one can find him. Even the old man can't do anything to him."
Su Weiyun nodded and said, "Liu Changjie is indeed a trustworthy friend and a truly extraordinary person."
Minister He said: "But the three of them are no match for the old man. The old man is the real master. He has actually reached the legendary realm, the realm of a god!"
Su Weiyun said: "I know."
"My Lord knows?"
Su Weiyun smiled and said, "Otherwise, how could I have the ability to kill Gong Jiu? If the old man was not as strong as me and could not do anything to me, he would have attacked me long ago."
Minister He seemed to be thinking about something, and seemed a little surprised. Then he said calmly, "But I heard from the old man that in the martial arts world, the only person he fears the most is the Jade Rakshasa leader of the Western Demon Cult."
Jade Rakshasa.
It was at that time that the Demon Cult leader competed with Su Weiyun in internal strength in the Tiger Tower, but was slightly defeated. He then retreated with the Three Friends of Winter.
Come to think of it, more than ten years have passed, and his martial arts must have improved.
Su Weiyun asked, "What does the old man think of him?"
Minister He said seriously, "The old man said that he should be the one who is most likely to be promoted to the realm of a god. Maybe within a few years, he will be promoted to a god, and the Western Demon Cult will make a comeback."
Su Weiyun asked curiously: "Will he be faster than Gong Jiu?"
Minister He said meaningfully, "That was the case before. But after Prince Gong Jiu met you, it's no longer clear."
…
Unknown island.
There is a pavilion with flowing water in front of it.
There were people in the pavilion, but none of them were moving. If you looked closely, you would see that all the people standing and sitting inside were made of wood.
There were only two living people.
Little old man, and Gong Jiu.
"Did you understand the fight between me and Su Weiyun?"
The little old man gestured in the air with his hands, actually playing two roles at the same time. Move by move, he recreated the fight between Su Weiyun and him.
"Although there is no Ten Thousand Flowers Formation here, with your comprehension, I believe you will be able to comprehend it."
Gong Jiu had changed his clothes, wearing a black cloak, elegant official shoes, and a sword on his waist.
"I can understand it."
The old man said, "I didn't use the pruning shears to cut his flowers in the end. Do you know why?"
Gong Jiu said: "Because he handed the flowers with his left hand, which is an extremely powerful killing move. Your flowers can kill people, and his flowers can also kill people!"
The old man said, "Moreover, he borrowed the spirit of the undefeated autumn chrysanthemum and the fragrant wind and frost, so he actually beat me slightly in the flower competition."
"Spirit is the most important thing in the realm of gods and men!"
Gong Jiu nodded slowly: "But if you cut Qiu Ju into pieces with the flower scissors, the killing intent will be aroused first, and the strength will be exhausted. He will definitely take the opportunity to draw the sword in his right hand. At that time, the magic sword will be unsheathed, and it will be unstoppable!"
"The Changsheng Sword and Xiaoxiang Sword hanging on his waist, no matter which one is unsheathed, it will definitely not be easy to deal with."
"In fact, you may not be Su Weiyun's opponent, but his sword has never been seen in the past eleven years, and no one knows what kind of swordsmanship he has mastered, so you are unwilling to take the risk."
The old man stroked the wooden man sitting in the middle, with a satisfied look on his face, and said with a smile: "Not bad, it seems that you will be promoted to a god soon."
"But before that, you must not provoke Su Weiyun, because if I'm not here, he will really kill you!"
After the old man finished speaking, he walked out of the pavilion. He took a step, lightly tapped the flowing water in front of the pavilion, and flew away.
