Chapter 42 Visitor From Linglong Pavilion

In the next few days, Xu Han lived very quietly.

Cultivate the "Asura Art" and swordsmanship every day. At night, bring the black cat to the night market in Chang'an to have a look. I'm in the mood to eat a few small dishes. Listen to Mr. Shu's words in the tavern. It's a good enjoyment.

He kept a low profile. Previously, he had injured Lin Kai in the main hall of the Marquis' Mansion of Ning Country. This could be considered big news in Chang'an City. Xu Han was naturally unwilling to participate in the battles in Chang'an City, so he always went out at night these few days.

He couldn't afford to provoke the big shots in Chang'an, nor was he willing to provoke them. All he wanted was to cure his right arm. As for what he could and would do in the future, it was too far away for Xu Han. He didn't expect it to be so far away.

However, after Lin Kai was injured, everyone in Chang'an City thought that with Great Commander Lin's temperament, he would definitely ask the Marquis of Ning for an explanation for his son. However, after a few days, there was no sign of any movement from the Marquis of Ning Kingdom.

Others found it inconceivable, or thought that the daughter of the Marquis of Ning Country had won the favor of the Exquisite Pavilion, so Lin Li had some misgivings and suffered this loss.

But those who truly saw through it understood it very well.

The day Ye Hongjian left Chang'an for Linglong Pavilion was the day Ye Hongjian went to die.

The Longevity Division would not watch the Marquis Mansion of Ning Country grow bigger. The reason why Lin Li swallowed his anger was not because he was afraid, but because he was brewing bigger and more terrifying revenge.

Other people wanted this, and Ye Chengtai also wanted this. Xu Han was very clear that Ye Chengtai's probing was not only aimed at him, but also aimed at Longevity Division.

Lin Li's reaction was exactly what Xu Han wanted. Ye Chengtai had no other choice but to choose Xu Han.

…

Another few days passed in a flash. It was September, and it was already late autumn. The weather in Chang'an gradually turned cold.

On this day, a guest came from the Marquis' Mansion of Ning Country.

The scouts in Chang'an who silently watched every move of the Marquis Mansion of Ning Country finally moved after hibernating for so long.

News began to spread, and undercurrents surged under the seemingly calm Chang'an City.

However, the Marquis Manor of Ning Country, which was at the center of the undercurrent, did not notice this at all.

"Young Hero Tong, it's been a hard journey."

Ye Chengtai cupped his hands and said to a young man sitting beside him in the main hall of the Marquis' Mansion of Ning Country.

The man was dressed in white and placed a long sword on one side. He looked twenty-five or twenty-six. His face was handsome and heroic. Behind him stood five white-clothed swordsmen of his age. There were both males and females. Although they were young, the auras around their bodies were extremely condensed. Clearly, they were experts who had invaded the path of the sword for many years.

" Marquis is too polite." The man in the lead replied politely. His expression was respectful and humble, but he did not seem to be humble. It was because there was nothing wrong with him.

"Junior Sister Ye is Elder Sikong 's personal disciple. Our Exquisite Pavilion naturally has to ensure that she is safe and sound. It is our duty to come here. Why bother to say so?"

"Of course. With all the young geniuses from the Exquisite Pavilion sending them off, no thieves will dare to attack again." Ye Chengtai did not hesitate to praise him, so he immediately smiled and said.

At that moment, the two sides exchanged another round of pleasantries.

At this moment, a burst of footsteps came from outside the room. A beautiful figure walked in from outside, but it was undoubtedly Ye Hongjian .

Just now, when the man surnamed Tong saw Ye Hongjian , his hand holding the teacup suddenly swung. The tea almost fell from the cup, and his eyes revealed a scorching color. But after all, his cultivation quickly restrained his abnormal state. He stood up and smiled at Ye Hongjian , "Junior Sister Ye, long time no see. It has been several months since we last parted."

"Hongjian greets senior apprentice-brother Tong and his fellow senior apprentice-brothers and sisters." Ye Hongjian obediently nodded at the man surnamed Tong and then nodded at the guests from Linglong Pavilion behind him.

However, although his attitude was respectful and courteous, he didn't seem to be intimate with any of them. Instead, he had a faint sense of distance.

Tong Tiexin , the handsome man in the lead, was slightly displeased.

A few months ago, he was fortunate enough to follow the Taishang Elder to Chang'an.

At that time, it was really early summer. Ye Hongjian dressed in red hardcover made Tong Tie's heart tremble. Ever since then, he had been thinking about it day and night.

This time, the sect had sent Ye Hongjian to the Exquisite Dragon Pavilion. Tong Tiexin had worked hard to become the leader of this mission, so that she could see the young lady in front of her again and express her heartfelt feelings.

However, Ye Hongjian 's attitude was far from Tong Tiexin 's expectations. He couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.

However, he quickly packed up his mood. After all, Ye Hongjian was his junior sister from now on. The two of them were at the same place. There were plenty of opportunities to get close to each other, so there was no need to be too anxious.

Thinking of this, Tong Tiexin 's face once again revealed the same smile as before.

"Junior Sister, you're welcome. Tomorrow, we will set off for the Exquisite Pavilion. Although the journey is not far, it will take some time. Junior Sister, are you prepared? If you don't understand anything, you can ask me. I will definitely know everything."

"Hongjian understands. Thank you, Senior Brother." Ye Hongjian nodded again, but she stood beside Ye Chengtai .

"Young Hero Tong, you have a heart." Ye Chengtai also smiled.

However, Hongjian is still the daughter of the Marquis of Ning Country . In order to escort her and make your pavilion go through so much trouble, I feel sorry for her. Therefore, I have prepared a young hero for her before this. I can go with all of you to protect her and share some of the pressure for you.

"Does Marquis not trust my Linglong Pavilion? With my Senior Brother Tong here and the name of the Linglong Pavilion, who in the entire Great Zhou dares to be so blind and attack us?"

Before Tong Tiexin could respond to Ye Chengtai 's words, one of his junior brothers and sisters, a youth in his early twenties, stepped forward and said discontentedly.

The Linglong Pavilion was known as the number one sect of the Great Zhou Empire. These junior disciples were somewhat arrogant. Not to mention ordinary Jianghu people, even Marquis Ye Chengtai of the Great Zhou Empire did not look down on them. Hearing that Ye Chengtai had actually arranged other guards, he naturally felt that the other party did not trust Linglong Pavilion, so he had such words.

" Luo Yin !" However, just as he said this, Tong Tiexin let out a loud shout, and a wisp of anger appeared on his face. Immediately, he reprimanded, "If you continue to speak nonsense, I will surely report to Master when I return to the sect. I will punish you to copy the Exquisite Code on the Dahuan Peak for ten days and ten nights."

Tong Tiexin clearly had quite a reputation among the group of disciples. Hearing his reprimand, the disciple who had just been unruly lost his temper and his face darkened. He hurriedly retreated to the side, not daring to utter the slightest rebuttal.

" Marquis , the bad disciples of the sect are not strictly disciplined. This makes Marquis laugh." After reprimanding the young disciple named Luo Yin , Tong Tiexin turned to look at Ye Chengtai and said apologetically.

"Don't worry too much, young hero Tong." However, Ye Chengtai did not care about this.

"Then I would like to ask Marquis to recommend the guards you prepared. Since you want to escort Junior Sister, please communicate with them earlier so that nothing will happen to you. Our cooperation with the guards that Marquis mentioned is inappropriate, causing Junior Sister to be injured. At that time, even if I die, I will not be able to explain myself to Marquis and the sect." Tong Tiexin 's heart was somewhat disdainful of the guard Ye Chengtai spoke of. However, with his usually calm temperament, he would not declare anything like that Luo Yin . Moreover, he had long admired Ye Hongjian in his heart. In his heart, Ye Chengtai was his future father-in-law. He would not go to the thin leaf platform for face.

"Go invite Young Master Xu ." Ye Chengtai nodded slightly and said to a waiter. Naturally, the waiter hurriedly left and invited Xu Han over according to Ye Chengtai's words.

In less than fifteen minutes, the waiter led a youth dressed in grey linen into the main hall.

That youth was Xu Han.

His appearance caused the expressions of the Linglong Pavilion disciples, including Tong Tiexin , to change.

His appearance was still too eye-catching.

His right arm was tied with dense white cloth, and on his back was a long sword with a strange shape, while on his shoulder was a black cat.

Even though they had disdained Xu Han before, the moment he appeared, everyone felt that they had overestimated the bodyguard that Ye Chengtai was talking about.

"This is…?" After Tong Tiexin was slightly stunned, he was the first to regain his senses. He pointed at Xu Han and looked at Ye Chengtai with some uncertainty. Logically speaking, the youth in front of him should be the bodyguard that Ye Chengtai spoke of. However, it would be a bit too much of a joke for Ye Chengtai to ask such a youth whose cultivation did not seem to be at the Treasure Aquarius Realm to protect Ye Hongjian .

"This is Xu Han, the bodyguard we were talking about." Ye Chengtai introduced with a smile.

"Young master xu's ancestor is my friend, earlier because of illness, just entrusted him to me. "I want him to go with Hongjian to the Linglong Pavilion. First, he can protect Hongjian along the way. Second, he can also take care of each other when he goes to the Linglong Pavilion. Although he is not a disciple of the Linglong Pavilion, it is still better to be immersed in it than to find a job in Chang'an at such a young age."

Hearing this, Tong Tiexin immediately understood Ye Chengtai 's plan. It turned out that the bodyguard was only from the beginning, but his real purpose was to send this old friend to the Linglong Pavilion.

Naturally, this was a little unorthodox, but Tong Tiexin was bent on currying favor with this future father-in-law in his eyes.

Therefore, after pondering for a moment, he said again, "I really admire Marquis for his concern for the past." However, there was a difference between men and women. Junior Sister Hong Jian was the disciple of Elder Si Bang. At that time, the Linglong Pavilion would arrange a separate residence for her. It was inappropriate for Brother Xu and Junior Sister Xu to take care of each other. "However, Marquis , don't worry. Marquis 's business is my own. When we arrive at the Linglong Pavilion, I will arrange a job for Brother Xu. If we do well, I will find some connections and take him into the Linglong Pavilion as a disciple."

Tong Tiexin 's words were naturally somewhat arrogant. The Linglong Pavilion had always been strict in accepting disciples. How could a mere junior disciple like him interfere? These words were just a show of face to make Ye Chengtai feel comfortable.

Unexpectedly, Ye Chengtai shook his head at that time.

"Young Hero Tong has misunderstood."

"This Young Master Xu is not only my old friend, but also my future husband."
