"Any news?"
Meng's Mansion.
As Meng Wuchang, the head of the Meng family, entered the hall, Meng Zhen, Meng Xiang, and others who were waiting in the hall all stood up.
"President Sun went to the Beast Station. I didn't see President Sun, but I have sent Meng Qi to find out the reason."
"Beast Station?"
Meng Zhen was slightly startled, then immediately understood, and hurriedly said, "Beast Station! Of course! The big figure must be traveling to and from on a flying fierce beast. Recently, a big figure has come to our Longmen City, right?"
"Big figure?"
Meng Wuyan, who was relatively familiar with the affairs of Longmen City, seemed to have thought of something. His face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Ask Immortal Sect's Young Master Huang Tianluo. His older brother is one of the top inner disciples of Ask Immortal Sect. It is said that he is expected to open the Elemental Realm and become a giant in the Mixed Element Realm. Such a figure undoubtedly has the power to shake the entire Longmen City."
"Ask Immortal Sect!?"
"Huang Tianluo?"
"Fan'er, do you happen to know Huang Tianluo from Ask Immortal Sect?"
Finally getting some clues, everyone in the Meng family looked at Meng Feifan, waiting for his answer.
"Huang Tianluo? How is that possible?"
Meng Feifan smiled bitterly and shook his head. "Huang Tianluo is a heavyweight in the Refining True Sixth Layer, even the Lord of our Longmen City has to curry favor with him and even let his daughter Li Wan'er accompany him to meet. This kind of figure, even the top ten experts of the Changkong Academy, may not recognize. How could I know him?"
"Not Huang Tianluo?"
Meng Zhen, Meng Wuyan, Meng Xiang, Meng Wuchang, and others were all slightly startled by Meng Feifan's words.
"Then who could it be?"
At that moment, everyone's face showed a look of confusion again.
"Ask Immortal Sect..."
At this moment, in the corner of the crowd, a woman's voice muttered softly.
This woman was none other than the student from Qingyuan Academy that Lu Qinghe had recognized in the Meng family inn yesterday.
She met and fell in love with Meng Feifan at Qingyuan Academy. With Meng Feifan's rising status and position in the Meng family, she naturally had the qualifications to enter the council hall.
"Ask Immortal Sect... Ask Immortal Sect... Fan'er really has a good friend related to Ask Immortal Sect, but..."
As she said this, she suddenly remembered the slightly familiar figure from yesterday!
And...
The city lord's close guard accompanying that figure.
"Ah!"
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but let out a scream.
"Wulian?"
In this environment where everyone was quietly contemplating and recollecting, the woman's outcry naturally attracted the attention of most people in the hall.
Meng Fei's gaze fell on her for the first time.
"Liu Qinghe! Liu Qinghe! That person is Liu Qinghe!"
Finally!
She finally thought of who that familiar figure was.
"Liu Qinghe?"
Meng Zhen Gong was slightly startled and asked, "Who is Liu Qinghe?"
"Liu Qinghe!?"
There was a hint of surprise in Meng Fei's eyes, "Liu Qinghe? In Qingyuan Academy, I lived not far from Liu Qinghe. We did have some interaction. Wulian, what have you figured out?"
"Liu Qinghe! It's Liu Qinghe! Yesterday, I met him at the inn. At that time, there was a guard accompanying him, serving him. That guard was none other than the personal guard of Lord Shi Luoren!"
Wulian hurriedly recounted what she had seen.
"The Lord sending a personal guard to serve by his side?"
Meng Zhen Gong hurriedly asked Meng Fei, "Who is this Liu Qinghe?"
"Liu Qinghe is the top swordsman of our Qingyuan Academy, extraordinary in swordsmanship and exceptional in talent, but..."
Meng Fei's mind was uncertain.
Although Liu Qinghe had outstanding talent, to say that he could influence Deputy City Lord Shi Luoren, and make City Lord Shi Luoren try to please him, seemed a bit too exaggerated...
"Afan, don't forget about Liu Qinghe's sister, Liu Qingyun!"
"Liu Qingyun!"
The name of this talented young girl shook Meng Fei.
Liu Qinghe, perhaps unable to influence the decisions of Lord Shi Luoren, but Liu Qingyun...
A sixteen-year-old disciple of the inner sect, from the Snow Sword Villa, definitely has this kind of influence.
At this moment, a younger member of the Meng family suddenly ran over from outside, shouting as he ran, "I found out, I found out! President Sun, President Sun, along with Lord Shi and even Lord Li, all went to send off a young gentleman..."
"Meng Qi, who is the young gentleman!?"
Meng Wuchang hurriedly asked.
"Liu Qinghe! The young gentleman is called Liu Qinghe!"
"Liu Qinghe!"
"It really is Liu Qinghe!"
"He actually saved our Meng family!?"
The identity of the benefactor was revealed, and all the high-level members of the Meng family exclaimed.
"Not only that! I personally witnessed an amazing scene! The Golden Dragon Sword King of the Ancient Sword Sect came for revenge, but was killed by a single sword by Lord Liu Qinghe, his head severed!"
Meng Qi eagerly described what he had seen with his own eyes.
"The Golden Dragon Sword King!? He is a senior elder of the Refining Realm Eightfold in the Ancient Sword Sect!"
"Killed by a single sword? Lord Liu Qinghe, actually has such prowess!?"
"How is this possible..."
Meng Fei felt that his understanding of Liu Qinghe had been overturned.
"I saw it with my own eyes!"
Meng Qi said firmly, with an adoration from the bottom of his heart, "He truly deserves to be a talented figure of the Asking Immortal Sect. The Golden Dragon Sword King, ambushed him in secret, but was not able to do anything to Lord Liu Qinghe. Instead, he was killed by a single sword. That kind of swordsmanship... transcendent! I never thought that although we are of similar age, his swordsmanship could reach this level. It's unbelievable!"
"Golden Dragon Sword King..."
Meng Fei uttered the name.
In these days, the Meng family had been driven to a dead end by Luo Zhengdong, and the Ancient Sword Sect played a major role in this. Therefore, the Meng family had some understanding of the strong men of the Ancient Sword Sect.
The Golden Dragon Sword King was a genuine senior elder of the Refining Realm Eightfold.
Liu Qinghe...
It had only been a year since he left Qingyuan City, and now he could actually kill a senior elder of the Refining Realm Eightfold?
For a moment, Meng Fei almost thought that they were not the same person.
"Afan, Senior Liu Qinghe... actually... actually has the ability to kill a senior elder of the Refining Realm Eightfold!?"
Wulian asked with a trembling voice.
Refining Realm Eightfold!
How dreadful was that existence?
A Luo Zhengdong of the Refining Realm Sixfold was able to almost push the entire Meng family to the brink of despair, let alone a Refining Realm Eightfold strongman?
The Deputy City Lord Shi Luoren of Longmen City was also only at the Refining Realm Eightfold.
"..."
Meng Feifan was equally unwilling to believe...
However, thinking back to the rumors of Lu Qinghe's incredible performance on Qingyuan Long Street years ago, where he cut down Qin Feng with his sword and battled Ji Wuji, that kind of incredibility was slowly being shaken.
At that time, Lu Qinghe had already shown stunning talent in swordsmanship, and he had actually managed to kill Qin Feng, who was at the fourth level of refining, and fought against Ji Wuji, who was at the fifth level of refining, even though he had given up his cultivation. Currently, he had been deepening his studies in the sacred place of cultivation, the sect of Wenxian, for a year.
"Fan'er, from the way you look, it seems like you've figured something out. Wulian, is what you said true?"
Seeing Meng Feifan's constantly changing expression, Meng Wuchang waited for a moment, until his mind calmed down a bit, before he asked.
"I'm afraid... it's because Senior Lu Qinghe secretly helped our Meng family..."
Meng Feifan gradually accepted the reality.
"But according to what you guys said, that Lu Qinghe is just a student of the Qingyuan Academy..."
Meng Feifan glanced at his father, Meng Wuchang, as if he understood what he wanted to say.
"Genius! Lu Qinghe is a true genius!"
Meng Feifan said this, with an unusual look in his eyes, as if he could once again see the demeanor of the top swordsman at the Qingyuan Academy who made it difficult for all the students to breathe.
"Genius, has never been able to be measured by common sense!"
...
Kunwu Mountain Range.
A fierce beast, resembling a leopard, quietly lurked among the trees.
This fierce beast, was only about a third larger than a leopard, and its entire body was covered with jet-black scales, looking indestructible.
On the back of this fierce beast, were many sharp bone spurs, especially the sharp claws extending from its feet, which could easily crush ordinary iron ore with just a light scratch.
At this moment, this fierce beast, with the help of the cover of the bushes, stared quietly at the figure standing not far in front of it, seemingly evaluating the danger of this prey.
For several minutes, the motionless prey finally made it decide. Its forelimbs bent slightly, and it opened its mouth, revealing fangs capable of shattering precious swords!
Attack mode!
"Bang!"
Soil splattered.
At the moment the attack erupted, this fierce beast showed a terrifying speed.
In the blink of an eye, it had already crossed the fifteen meters between it and the target, its speed as fast as lightning!
In the face of this formidable hunting speed, even a seventh-level refining expert might not have any room for reaction.
"Clang!"
Just as this fierce beast was about to kill its prey at an unbelievably fast speed, the figure, which had been standing quietly at the center, suddenly drew its sword!
It was one sword!
It was also the thirteenth sword!
"Shoo!"
The light was shining!
The black fierce beast was fast, but this sword was faster!
This sword seemed to pierce through the void.
At the moment the black fierce beast was about to kill the figure, the sword fiercely pierced through the sturdy and dark scales on the head of the black fierce beast!
The collision between the sword and the scales of the fierce beast made a faint sound of metal and iron clashing.
It resounded thirteen times.
The thirteen sounds, piled up together, turned into a fourteenth sound amid the thunderous noise.
"Chi!"
The sword penetrated!
The sword hit, but the huge momentum from the black fierce beast's attack was about to collide with the figure's body.
At a critical moment, the figure unexpectedly flashed.
This flash was traceless and ethereal.
The huge impact force of the fierce beast, under this flash, was avoided!
The long sword in its hand, taking advantage of the momentum from the impact of the black fierce beast, cut steadily along the wound on the head of the black fierce beast, spreading wildly, directly cutting through the tailbone of the black fierce beast, almost dividing the black fierce beast into two!
"Roar!"
The black fierce beast let out a painful cry, blood gushing out.
Following this momentum, the figure fiercely slammed to the ground, a large amount of blood spilling out along its not-so-large body.
"Ugh!"
This black fierce beast fell to the ground, groaning in pain for a moment, but its current condition was too severe. Even though the vitality of the fierce beast was much stronger than that of a human, at this moment, it still lost its strength and gradually lost its vitality.
"The ultimate move of the Thirteen Flash Swords, the Fourteenth Sword, has been mastered."
