Chapter 340 (1/2)
West Lake wasn't big It was noTower, the waters still appeared vast andHe narrowed his eyes and watched the surface of the lake through a veil of ba quickly across the right side of the lake They occasionally tapped against the surface of the water, sending up a spray before stepping on a boat near the e speeds,one another
Soled back and forth above the surface of the lake Their swords flashed across space, and the two soared in the sky Their poses were beautiful but carried a sense of death that made people shi+ver in fear
Blood suddenly appeared, and the two separated onceforward like two quick birds
The scene appeared beautiful but was exceedingly frightening
Fan Xian stood tall and saw far, but still the two aces had disappeared into the winter s on the other side of the lake Looking at the direction they went, it seemed to be toward the black and noble courtyards
He furrowed his brows Yun Zhilan haddespite his heavy injury The swordyi clearly deserved his reputation
In the rare eagle pecking scene on the lake, it seemed like the Shadow did not use his u sword technique, so the attacks of the two aces seees only flashed on the surface of the lake, they were still eye catching and awe inspiring
Given how the Shadow had chased after hiot, the injured Yun Zhilan see him So why did he head directly to the opposite side of the lake? Were there helpers froant wooden structures on the other side of the lake see, he sla Fan Xian left the side of the railing Glancing at the Third Prince, as staring at hi at? Keep eating”
He sat beside the table and picked up his chopsticks He then began looking through the re food for the few shrimps left
Everyone in the roouessing what had happened outside Who is killing who? Those people on the plain had all rushed to the lake side and began to shout, so it was clear so had happened
shi+ Chanli finally couldn't resist and quietly asked, ”Sir? What happened?”
Fan Xian didn't give it ht ”Not sure who, but someone stabbed the fisherman in the lake At this moment they've chased their way to the other side of the lake”
There was silence in the room What kind of fisherhu heroes to be so surprised? No one believed his words, but no one had any way to refute the stood beside the official and gazed at the two exceptional aces on the lake who had vanished into the distance Her face was calhts
Meanwhile, the Jiangnan ures had swar in cold air and h surface of the lake
Although the crowd had not seen the first scene, they had clearly witnessed the little boat splitting apart and the two aces soaring like giant birds above the surface of the lake With one shocked glance, the crowd knew that the two dueling were unfathomably powerful They were definitely not normal people They had probably entered the mystical ninth-level realuess the identities of the two people After a long debate, they still had no idea Even if one of the superior people saw that the sword techniques on the surface of the lake were si Those proud old yi always likes to boast they have ht it out yourselves
Only the feyi City had serious expressions They didn't think that in the Qing Kingdozhou there would be someone who dared…who could…hurt their master With Lv Sisi in the lead, these soman hastily saluted in the direction of the host and silently left the plain to follow in that direction
The crowd of Jiangnan martial artists were shocked but also satisfied At the end of today's , they were able to see the fe, ht each other beside the lake This entry fee had been orth it
The jianghu people of Qing Kingdoet the e Everyone knew that at thispeople did not want to lose face, they needed to take this opportunity and quickly get it over
Thus, the heroes of the jianghu chose to eat at Loushang Tower, preparing to use wine as a lead in to having a good discussion about the shocking scene they had seen The rarely seen leaders of various groups and parties took this opportunity to discuss the distribution of benefits under the ”just” judgenan official and a few seniors of virtue and prestige saluted Haitang but did not bring up what happened on the field They invited Haitang inside to rest with great politeness and etiquette
As they were about to enter Loushang Tower, a cultured and spirited young nobleht and honorable, rushed forward in welco and war way It ishad never been an icy and frosty immortal, so she asked casually and politely Heraces fro I aroup was the Jiangnan water bandit Xia Qifei He raised his eyes to glance at Ming His expression rehed coldly in his heart It had been many years since he had seen his eldest nephew, and now he hadof himself He even knew to suck up to Northern Qi people
Loushang Toas part of the Ming business and had always been looked after by a shopkeeper Since there was so Lanshi+, son of the head of the Ming fada, had personally conan, they recognized the need to not only have good relationshi+p with officials, but also that favor should be curried for iures of other countries That is why he rushed out of the building to welcoreet the Jiangnan Road official beside her He was a srace
The gazes of the diners were focused on the entrance They all wanted to see what the legendary Haitang looked like
Haitang was a fa People had all heard the gossip that this girl had so people all saw Fan Xian as their pride and considered hiure in all of the court They couldn't help looking at Haitang with pickiness and a sense that they were exa her as a soon-to-be bride
Once everyone had seen clearly, they couldn't help feeling a bit disappointed This girl was not very pretty It seeh for Sir Fan junior
As the noises gradually lessened outside of the building, the noises inside the building grew to a clamor Fan Xian knew that those brutish heroes were about to enter He signaled with his eyes at a Tiger Guard near the roohu people who didn't watch where they were going and wanted to i to take their seats Fan Xian did not have the tilanced at hi Fan Xian's nod, waved his hand to call back the Tiger Guard He went out hiuards who hadn't eaten
At this ti Everyone, including the Third Prince, stared at Fan Xian with confused and questioning gazes Sisi was not an exception Her gaze was full of curiosity
”What are you looking at?” Fan Xian furrowed his brows ”What happened on the lake really had nothing to do with ht, Teacher is sometimes clever but how can his reaction be so slow at times? Everyone was too embarrassed to ask the question It was the Third Prince as not afraid of Fan Xian's teled and said, ”It's not that”
”Then what is it?”
The noise outside was getting louder and louder It seehu people were heading up The Third Prince gestured past the door ”That Haitang girl is co to invite her in sit?”
Everyone in the rooazes on Fan Xian's face He became serious ”What kind of brain do you all have? You should be happy I've brought you all to Hangzhou to watch the show Are you all counting onfor you as well?”
shi+ Chanli scrunched up his face ”Teacher, Haitang is not a stranger Eating together is a norhed coldly ”Everyone is watching If I invite her in, then everyone will knoe are”
The Third Prince offered a counterpoint in his delicate voice ”I don't understand e are incognito Why can't we travel the nan people will dare do anything to us”
Fan Xian had a headache ”It's not that I a, it's that it is a rare opportunity to leave the capital and relax Why must you have a dozen white-bearded officials all around us? Your Highness doesn't want to pass his days like that, right?”
The Third Prince paused and then understood that Conito was not because he intended to secretly investigate the evidence of the Ming family's crimes, it was purely because he had the desire to travel Realizing that he had overestimated the other party's professional ethics, the Third Prince couldn't stop his face going red Silently cursing that soly said, ”So what if they know? If we don't go to the yamen ourselves, I doubt any for aardness?”
Fan Xian didn't bother to acknowledge hi was not so the child would understand
The brothers were each holding the other in silent conterow louder outside their room It seemed someone wanted the room they were in
Fan Xian's eyebroitched ”No way, such a vulgar thing is actually happening to us?”
Gao Da stood guard outside the door with a dark expression He watched the jianghu people in front of hie and listened to their filthy words His hand held the hilt of his long knife, but he had not yet pulled it out because Haitang atching hireat interest
Of course, there were already three ”jianghu heroes” lying in front of hi their storievances
As Fan Xian had expected, once those overbearing jianghu people got upstairs, they saw at once the room Fan Xian and them were seated in This roo Tower The other one had been kept back by the owner in preparation of the Martial asseainst the officials and Haitang for space They saw this rooan to drool They loudly ordered the people inside to quickly , had not yet come upstairs The shopkeepers and busboys did not dare offend the sielding jianghu people They could only stand to one side and say nice things
What was Gao Da's identity? He was one of the leaders of the Ehu all these years, he would probably have long ago established a school and party As for these absolutely unreasonably requests, and such people that the commissioner turned his nose up at, there was no need for any discussion He waited for the jianghu people to move toward the front, then he would knock at the knife from its sheath
Then there would be a fewpitiful cries
The restaurant was full of people fro unreasonable on the jianghu, but today they met someone as even athered around evenly and turned their unfriendly gaze on Gao Da
Fan Xian was to blame for this After more than half a year of ”close contact”, other than an ability to kill, Gao Da had been greatly tainted by Commissioner Fan's ruthless aura In public, Gao Da did not want to strike too hard, so he used a few of Fan Xian's tricks Although they quickly resolved fights, their ruthless nature er Mountain swordsh these friends were rude first and made some unreasonable requests, your sudden ruthless strike seehtly unnecessary”
Gao Da ree hier Mountain swordsman knew that his skill was probably above that of his master as a recluse in the mountain He had respectfully addressed hi Gao Da's i even though he was slightly in fear of the people in the roo was escorted in by the crowd to the top floor Seeing the crowd in confrontation with Gao Da, a strange look flashed through her eyes She naturally walked into the crowd
Everyone in the building was fearfully trying to guess Gao Da's identity No one had seen such a hu, so they couldn't help being confused Haitang had seen Gao Da nized hi quickly came up to resolve the matter and ordered someone to clear out another room He then had the busboys help the heroes on the floor
The Ming faive them some face Furthermore, they realized that Gao Da's cultivation really was shocking, so the person in the rooer even h the people kept chattering about it
Having settled everything, Ming said a few apologetic words to Gao Da and then war, the official, and other people into the co held the flower basket with one hand and looked at Gao Da with a not-quite-there sently said, ”Thank you, young , for your kindness, but I have seen soo visit theaze turned to Gao Da, who again was , then the identity of the person inside must be incredible
They all said he was a shed and said so everyone away What a joke What if the person inside really was that young a his face He wasn't an official like a prefecturalIf he rashly exposed the lie, what kind of life would he have left in the officialdom?
Everyone smiled pleasantly at Gao Da and left as swiftly as the wind Only Ming's face revealed a stunned expression He gave a pained smile and shook his head
The door to the private roo entered with the flower basket in hand, and her gaze lit up
Fan Xian was holding a wine cup and looked at the uninvited girl A mo nodded She sreeted everyone in the room who sat there with their mouth open in curiosity She walked to his side and replied, ”I came”
Fan Xian put down his wine cup ”I purposely had Gao Da go out because I was afraid you would coave you?”
Gao Da stood in the doorway and looked innocently at the lake scene outside
