Chapter 6 The Strongest in the Four Realms
The Fan Mansion is located in the west city of Langya City and is within the inner city. After Fan Wuwei went to Beijing to take over as the head of the Water Jingsi Department, he will naturally have his place in the capital.
Fan Wuwei brought his family to Beijing, which was very popular. In the eyes of smart people, the position of the head of the Water Mirror Secretariat is not easy to sit, while Fan Wuwei even brought his family with him, which was equivalent to fully displaying his weaknesses in front of everyone. I don’t know if it was because of his master's bravery, or if he suddenly received the holy grace and could not see the situation clearly.
The black carriage drove away from the Sword Courtyard and headed towards the nearest Nancheng.
Fan Wuwei sat in the carriage.
The Sword Academy exam has ended.
After Li Mengzhou and He Zhengrong fought, the following sword skills competition became a little dull. Without spending much time, eight people were selected to enter the inner courtyard to practice.
This naturally includes Li Mengzhou, He Zhengrong, and Chen Jiyue.
Most of the people watching the ceremony have left, and Fan Wuwei is considered to be behind.
Because before leaving, he went to see Xue Wangyou once.
In the small house in the middle of the lake, Xue Wangyou poured and drank by himself, which was very comfortable.
The dim candlelight filled the entire hut.
The raindrops fell on the lake, making a slap, causing ripples.
It is a very pleasant thing to watch the rain and drink.
Fan Wuwei held an umbrella and crossed the bluestone road on the lake. She slapped the rain stained on her clothes in front of the hut for a moment. She slowly put the umbrella away, placed it in front of the door, and then walked into the hut solemnly.
Xue Wangyou was wearing a green robe, half lying on the plush carpet inside the house, half squinted his eyes, and said calmly: "The capital city is no better than before. More and more people are stepping into the threshold of the fifth realm. Even those younger generations of boys have faintly touched the gate of the fifth realm, which has also led to the increasing danger of Langya City and the whole world has many more things."
Fan Wuwei knelt in front of Xue Wangyou and said, "Director Xue was just a disciple of the inner courtyard of the Sword Court. He became famous with the Lishuang sword. He can be said to be the leader of the young generation. Not many people can surpass him, and he also has the title of Mr. Jianyuan."
"The prosperity of the Sword Academy started with Dean Xue. Before that, the Sword Academy had been silent for too long. Dean Xue also made countless enemies for this. To this day, I am afraid that there are a few people who are still alive. One day, they will come to seek revenge."
Fan Wuwei looked at Xue Wangyou. His slightly decadent and old look seemed to be too different from the image he had once remembered. He frowned slightly and said, "Not to mention those people outside Jiang Kingdom, just in this capital, the road to the mountains is not falling, and the sword courtyard is still thinking about suppressing the sword courtyard every day."
"Although Lu Zhongqi is both a fifth-level cultivator, I think it is not difficult to kill him with Dean Xue's cultivation. Why ignore him? It seems boring to let him do anything to ask questions every year."
Xue Wangyou handed out the wine pot and signaled it, chuckled and said, "That person Lu Zhongli is not worth worrying about. He was brainless when he was young, and even more childish when he was old. Sword cultivators need actual combat, and asking for Taoist meetings is also a good opportunity. Since Lu Zhongli is willing to do this, what reason do I have to refuse?"
Fan Wuwei did not go to pick up the wine pot, but grabbed a handful of peanuts and chewed it while saying, "Lu Zhongfeng is hostile to you. After all, it is because of your confidante back then. I can't figure out what you are doing now. If you want to recreate the glory of the Sword Academy, I have no reason to say that you did something wrong, but for her, isn't it too unfair?" Xue Wangyou was silent for a moment.
He took a sip of wine and said, "There will always be some regrets in the world. If there are no regrets, this life will be very boring. At least she lives well and I can see her at any time. After I find the successor of the Sword Academy, I will express my apology."
Xue Wangyou looked at Fan Wuwei seriously and couldn't help but say, "You kid was pretty good back then, why are you so fat now? That face is getting uglier and uglier."
Fan Wuwei rolled her eyes and said, "That's because you don't know how to appreciate it, so my wife thinks I'm very handsome."
Xue Wangyou said solemnly: "Your family does have eye problems. I said she should go to the Medicine King Valley to take a look, otherwise it wouldn't be so serious now."
Although Fan Wuwei is not much younger than Xue Wangyou, he will not really regard Xue Wangyou as his peer. Even if he doesn't have much respect in his words, in fact, he has always admired Xue Wangyou.
After all, Xue Wangyou devoted his whole life to the Sword Academy, which is something that few people can do.
Ligong Sword Academy, as the only sword cultivation mountain gate in Jiang Kingdom, still exists today. Xue Wangyou made great contributions. If it weren't for the Xue Wangyou in the Sword Academy that year, I'm afraid that Li Gong would have disappeared now.
Of course, there were no more young girls in the Sword Academy.
Fan Wuwei didn't want to answer Xue Wangyou's whispers, but said seriously: "There is one thing that I think is very strange."
Xue Wangyou took a sip of wine and asked, "What's strange?"
Fan Wuwei said: "After I took over as the Water Jingshi, I secretly investigated everyone under Qi Xiaoran. It is said that Qi Xiaoran was killed by Xu Hexian himself, but I did not find Qi Xiaoran's body, as if it had disappeared out of thin air. I suspect that Qi Xiaoran may not be dead."
Xue Wangyou narrowed his eyes slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "That person Xu Hexian is cruel and ruthless. It is impossible for him to let there be a fish in Qi's mansion that misses the net, let alone Qi Xiaoran himself."
There are indeed some problems here.
Fan Wuwei frowned and said, "Can it be that Xu Hexian didn't kill Qi Xiaoran at all?"
"What reason does he have to do this?"
"I can't figure this out either. Xu Hexian and Qi Xiaoran have no potential relationship, and they are even quite unfavorable. After Qi Xiaoran loses power, Xu Hexian should be the best person to take the blame. If Qi Xiaoran really dies, why can't the body be found?"
Xue Wangyou obviously didn't care much about this matter. He thought about it and felt a little headache, so he casually said: "Maybe Xu Hexian made Qi Xiaoran evaporate directly. There are many such methods in Xuanzhengsi, and Xu Hexian often does it, and there is nothing strange."
Fan Wuwei sighed and said, "It's just a little strange in his heart."
Xue Wangyou waved his hand and said, "You'd better go home to accompany your wife. Since you don't drink, why are you staying here? Go away quickly."
Fan Wuwei smiled and said, "There is no way. I have a wife with me when I go home, so you can only drink here, so I won't disturb you."
He grabbed another handful of peanuts, got up and walked out of the cottage, and the hearty laughter spread far away.
Xue Wangyou looked at the lake outside the house and said with a headache: "This laughter is still as unpleasant as ever. Should I sew his mouth up or use poison to slay him?"
......
The black carriage was under the muddy mountain road, and the south city gate was already close to you.
Fan Wuwei lifted the curtain and there was a beam of light in the dark night. A carriage was parked not far from the city gate, and a lantern was hanging in front of the carriage, swaying candlelight.
Although he had never seen this carriage, he knew very well who was sitting in the carriage.
Fan Wuwei hesitated for a moment, and finally got off the carriage. A cold voice came from the carriage opposite: "Fan Sishou, originally a county magistrate in Jinzhou County, but in a blink of an eye, he became a big shot in charge of the Water Mirror Department. He was really a one-man who achieved enlightenment and ascends to heaven."
Fan Wuwei breathed deeply, and once again showed his 'wonderful' laughter, saying, "By thanking His Majesty, although I was just a small official outside the organization before, now I am sitting in the position of the head of the Water Mirror Division, and I must seek benefits for Your Majesty and the people of Jiang Country. This is really what I should do."
The curtain of the car was lifted, revealing Xu Hexian's face.
He frowned slightly, listened to the laughter that was several times more unpleasant than a duck's call, and resisted the urge to block his ears. He looked at Fan Wuwei calmly and said, "The people who come from the small place are so innocent. Do you think the position of the head of the Shuijing Si Shishi is so easy to sit?"
Fan Wuwei smiled and said, "Of course I can't compare to Xu Sishou's position in the court, and I need more care in the future."
Xu Hexian sneered and said, "It's easy to take care of it, but I heard that you got this position because you were recommended by Jiang Tingyu. You probably won't know the relationship between me and Jiang Tingyu."
There are checks and balances between Xuanzhengsi and Tianshu Courtyard, which itself is a phenomenon that must exist in the court, and there are also unexplained grudges between Xu Hexian and Jiang Tingyu.
Few people really understand this matter, but they just take it for granted that the relationship between two people itself cannot be gentle.
But in fact, there is naturally a reason.
And this reason is also very simple.
It’s just because Xu Hexian doesn’t like Jiang Tingyu.
As for how Jiang Tingyu views Xu Hexian, there is no accurate answer, because there is never a person like Xu Hexian in Jiang Tingyu's eyes.
Although this is Fan Wuwei's first time to come to the capital, Xu Hexian is a person worthy of attention in the court.
He knew early that sooner or later he would face Xu Hexian.
At this time, it’s not too late or early, but Fan Wuwei definitely doesn’t want to see his time.
Xu Hexian sat upright in the carriage, lifting the curtain with one hand, and his indifferent eyes emitted a cold light in the darkness.
Fan Wuwei's face suddenly tightened.
In Xu Hexian's eyes, he felt the threat of death, which was a substantial target, reaching the depths of his soul.
He had long known that Xu Hexian was the strongest among the four realms, and he could enter the fifth realm with just one kick. However, when the other party really released hostility, he understood the gap between the two.
Although the upper realm of Wuchang and the peak of Wuchang Realm are just a small gap, there are countless gaps that need to be crossed. Even within the peak realm of Wuchang, those who touch the threshold of the five realm are far stronger than those of cultivators in the same realm.
Fan Wuwei suddenly couldn't laugh.
