Chapter 135 - Su Xuan attacking!
”Hahaha!”
A loud and clear laughter rang out from outside the door.
An elder wearing a dark green robe walked in with large strides. ”Han Qing has just returned from a trip to Hundred Bones Mountain and has made you all wait. ”Please excuse me.”
The old man cupped his fists as he walked in.
”Great Sword Master Han Qing is too serious, you are a respected senior in our Province Pinghai, we should wait for you.”
”Yeah, we'll be willing to wait for you no matter how long!”
”…”
Everyone was extremely respectful.
Han Qing walked over from afar and directly sat in the main seat. He cupped his fists to the people around him and said, ”The time is right, everyone can drink. No need to stand on ceremony. Let me toast you with the first goblet of wine. Thank you all for attending my birthday. ”
Han Qing lifted his wine cup and directly drank it all.
Everyone in the hall raised their cups in celebration.
The atmosphere was very warm. After a few pleasantries, everyone began to drink and chat among themselves. It was extremely lively when they got to know some of the nobles and prominent disciples.
Han Qing was also chatting happily with the elders at his table.
Li Tiexiong, Pan Ming, Zhu Qian, Wu Kui, Li Pu, Ning Yuling,, Spiritual Master Gu Ya, all of them were drinking with Han Qing as they introduced him.
Han Qing was very straightforward, and spoke with heroic spirit: ”Gu Ya, it's been a while since we last met, you have also grown older. The last time I saw you, you were still in your prime. ”
Gu Ya laughed bitterly, ”Brother Han Qing, since you've handed over the heavy responsibility of being the Thousand Swords Sect to Qian Jianzi, you should let it go and travel around. Naturally, you feel uncomfortable living here. We still have our own businesses to work at, so of course we'll be old. ”
Han Qing laughed loudly, ”Hahaha, Spiritual Master Gu Ya is too serious. An alchemist has an extraordinary status, of course we swordsmen cannot compare. ”
Gu Ya only chuckled, he knew that Han Qing had only said a few polite words. In this world, even though an alchemist's status was lofty, a powerful swordsman enjoyed special privileges. There was no distinction between good and bad.
Han Qing then said to Li Tiexiong: ”Marshal Li, it's been a long time since we last met. You are already a commander in chief of the three armies, at the prime of your life, like a dragon or a tiger.”
Li Tiexiong's attitude towards Han Qing was also more respectful, and he was even Han Qing's junior. immediately said: ”Senior Han Qing, I have lost to you but I am already old. On the other hand, the senior seemed to be growing stronger with each passing year. ”Come, let me toast to senior.”
The commanders of the three armies openly toasted to Han Qing. It could be seen how influential Han Qing was.
In fact, this was because Han Qing was very old, and the majority of the big figures present were his juniors. They had more or less received Han Qing's favor, and with Han Qing's straightforward character, they naturally became good friends, and were loved and respected by others.
Han Qing sat down, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and finally he said in a deep voice, ”Everyone, I, Han Qing, have lived a carefree life, and am still a member of the Thousand Swords Sect. He had been a member of the Thousand Swords Sect all his life. The only regret in my life is that I am unable to take back the golden sword that was taken away by Su Ruo, and cannot shine my Thousand Swords Sect's glory. This old one is very ashamed! ”
Saying that, Han Qing lowered his voice: ”In my hands, Shang Fang's golden sword has been publicly taken away, our Thousand Swords Sect will be shamed for eighty years. Until now, he still could not retrieve the golden sword! I, Han Qing, am worthy of facing the ancestors of the Thousand Swords Sect! ”
Han Qing raised his wine cup, and drank a cup of wine by himself, ”This old one is already old, and I am already unable to fulfill my wish. I hope all the Thousand Swords Sect disciples present will remember this old one's lesson. We have to take Brilliant Thousand Swords Sect as our responsibility, and get back the golden sword of Shang Fang that belongs to our Thousand Swords Sect as soon as possible. ”To console our ancestor.”
All of the Thousand Swords Sect's disciples in the arena were sad, and many senior level characters were crying while covering their faces.
At this time, Qian Jianzi whispered something into Han Qing's ears. Han Qing curiously turned his head to a corner, and landed on Su Xuan's body. He sized him up and sighed after a long while. That female was eighteen years old and was already an expert in the 7th level of the Heaven realm. The peerless swordsman who had defeated Bai Yang. There are many successors in Broken Sword Pavilion, if we still want to retrieve Shang Fang's Golden Sword, it will be even more difficult. ”
Qian Jianzi also lowered his head in silence, looking depressed.
Qian Shaoyang gnashed his teeth, and was unable to speak for a long while.
Han Qing looked at Su Xuan from afar, and muttered: ”On this girl, I really saw the grace and grace that I had back then!”
At this time, Su Xuan also noticed Han Qing's gaze, and immediately stood up and brought Su Ye to the main table. With both hands holding onto a embroidered box, she respectfully said: ”Junior Su Xuan greets Great Sword Master Han Qing. I wish Senior Han Qing the same life as the heavens, and luck as the East Sea! ”
The more Han Qing saw, the more shocked he became. As expected of a useless descendant. With you here, within a few decades, my Thousand Swords Sect will probably not have any chance to retrieve Shang Fang's Golden Sword. My Thousand Swords Sect has no relations with your Broken Sword Pavilion, so I'm afraid that you are not here just to offer your birthday wishes to me? ”
Su Xuan said: ”Senior Han Qing is insightful. I came here for three things. The first thing I wish Senior Han Qing a birthday. Senior Han Qing is a master swordsman, he is at the peak of the Pinghai Sword Arts, at the centenary birthday, junior hopes senior can live a long life well. Enjoy the blessings of heaven. ”
Han Qing slightly said: ”Thank you.”
Today was a happy day, even though Han Qing didn't feel like it. However, it was not easy to refute. He had to show a decent attitude.
Su Xuan continued: ”The second thing to do is to return Great Sword Master Bai Yang's original sword — — Mystical Water Sword!”
Su Xuan placed the embroidered box on the table.
He opened the brocade box.
