Ning Haoran smiled and said, "There is no airtight wall in the world. You will reveal to Xuan Zhengsi that Lu Changge killed Zhu Zaitian, and then Xie Chunfeng came to the door. This is all evidence. If you have no problem, why should Xie Chunfeng come to you? Why do you need to let Xuan Zhengsi know about Lu Changge killing Zhu Zaitian?"

"You and Lu Changge have no grudges that cannot be resolved. If you expose Lu Changge's crime to Xuan Zhengsi, there must be a reason you must do this."

"I guessed something in Chaosi Lane when I heard your description, but as a senior brother, it is inevitable to protect your junior brother. I believe that if you do this, you must have your own reasons. No matter what the reason is, as long as you have not done anything that is inconsistent with nature, I will stand in front of you."

Li Mengzhou was moved and said uneasy: "The fourth senior brother guessed the problem here in Chaosi Lane, so can't Xie Chunfeng guess?"

He was still very confident, but Ning Haoran could detect the problem in just a few words, so Xie Chunfeng might also notice it. Xu Hexian could know this, but Li Mengzhou didn't care much, because he bet that Xu Hexian knew this, but he would still hold on to Lu Changge tightly.

But Xie Chunfeng's attitude is indeed very important. After all, he is the chief disciple who will not fall into the mountains. If he uses this as evidence to rescue Lu Changge, it will also mean that Xu Hexian will give him the opportunity to point the finger at him.

Even if Xie Chunfeng was just speculating, his identity was enough to allow Xu Hexian to target Li Mengzhou in full for this. At that time, what Tianshu Courtyard and Ligong Sword Courtyard would have to face is Bulushan and Xuanzhengsi, rather than just hindering Xu Hexian alone.

This will be extremely bad!

......

At the foot of Udon Mountain, two figures, one black and one white, stood quietly beside the muddy mountain road. Ning Haoran, wearing a white shirt, narrowed his eyes slightly at the raindrops in the night sky, and said with some emotion: "At that time, I was just fighting and forgot to bring the umbrella. Fortunately, I am a practitioner and I usually don't catch a cold, but the feeling of getting wet in the rain is not very good."

It is indeed a pleasant thing to walk in the rain in the light rain, but if the road is muddy and slippery, it will be very uncomfortable.

Ning Haoran then looked at Li Mengzhou and said, "Xie Chunfeng is actually a very pure person. If he really guessed something, it would not be the kind of behavior he had just done. He would definitely be entangled with you like a dog skin plaster."

Li Mengzhou thought speechlessly, it was indeed very pure.

Ning Haoran picked a green leaf from a branch on the side of the mountain road and said calmly: "I can vaguely detect that it is because you are my junior brother. It is unusual for Xie Chunfeng to appear in Chaosi Lane, so he thought a little more, but he couldn't really guess what you were thinking. Xie Chunfeng and I are in a different position, and he couldn't think of me."

Having said that, Li Mengzhou was still a little uneasy. He felt that things gradually exceeded the original plan and there were unexpected changes.

"But I'm really a little curious, why did my junior brother kill Zhu Zaitian?"

Although Ning Haoran would unconditionally believe his junior brother, the murder of court officials is not a trivial matter. If you want to better protect your junior brother, it is inevitable to know the whole story.

Li Mengzhou did not hide it anymore and told the fourth senior brother in a scattered manner, "Actually, the killing of Zhu Zaitian was really just an accident, because I noticed someone's peeping eyes outside Chaosi Lane. On the eve of the banquet, Zhu Zaitian also went outside the city to intercept me to attend the Panlong Banquet. He was just the person I doubted the most."

"But when I went to Baihu Lane to find Zhu Zaitian, he discovered his identity and could only kill him if he was wrong. This matter happened to be seen by Lu Changge who was really peeping. In order to protect myself, I could only stop it and push everything on Lu Changge."

Ning Haoran said: "It is difficult to kill Zhu Zaitian with your strength. I guess there is the help of the ancient girl who lives in your house."

It is no longer a secret that Gu Shiyan lives in Chaosi Lane. At least in the eyes of some people, Gu Shiyan has appeared in their vision. Apart from Xuan Zhengsi's suspicion, it is still a secret that Gu Shiyan has done in the capital.

At least Ning Haoran just knew that there was a girl living in his junior brother's yard. So what is this girl's identity? He felt that it was a very bad thing that he could not find out his junior brother's privacy.

In fact, when Gu Shiyan was captured by Xuan Zhengsi, she was completely exposed to the eyes of many people in the capital, and there would naturally be some investigations in the court. As the strongest intelligence agency in Jiang State, Tianshu Academy had no reason to stay out of the matter, so it was easy to learn that Gu Shiyan was from the Western Jin Dynasty and was a disciple of Longhui Academy.

All major academies in the world are all one, and the academies of Jiangguo are like state religions. Facing Gu Shiyan from the Western Jin Academy, it is difficult to develop any hostility. Moreover, those who can become disciples of the academy are not bad at least in terms of character. Jiangguo's court has no reason to care about what Gu Shiyan is doing in the capital.

Any outsiders in the capital are under the vision of a spy in Tianshu Courtyard. Even if there is any problem, they can be quickly noticed.

But by chance, Li Mengzhou was also one of the secret agents of Tianshuyuan.

It is absolutely safe for Gu Shiyan to live in Chaosi Lane.

Since he had decided to be honest with the fourth senior brother, Li Mengzhou could only say helplessly: "It is indeed difficult to kill Zhu Zaitian with my strength."

Ning Haoran did not pursue the relationship between his junior brother and Gu Shiyan. He was not so gossipy, but said with some confusion: "Miss Gu's cultivation is not much weaker than me. If Lu Changge was peeping outside Chaosi Lane, why can't you reveal it on the spot? Instead, you suspect Zhu Zaitian?"

Li Mengzhou was also deeply confused about this. Before he discovered Lu Changge, he had some speculation that it was relatively difficult to judge a person's specific identity by relying solely on breath, but when the realm is not much different, it is indeed possible that there is no situation where the breath cannot be sensed, but with Gu Shiyan's cultivation level, it is impossible that Lu Changge's breath cannot be captured.

Moreover, when Lu Changge was peeping, he was perceived with a breath, but it disappeared immediately in that short moment. This is the reason why Li Mengzhou and Gu Shiyan could not catch him.

Perhaps Lu Changge has indeed practiced the method of hiding breath. Although there are more than four realms and there is a big gap between each small realm, Lu Changge and Gu Shiyan are indeed only one small realm difference in the surface. It is not impossible to rely on the special method of hiding breath to hide Gu Shiyan's perception.

It is similar to Li Mengzhou who once relied on the magical powers of "Silks of Silkworms to Destroy" to conceal Bei Zangfeng's perception.

With his strength to have not crossed the threshold of the fourth realm and to hide the perception of Bei Zangfeng, who is at the peak of the fourth realm, the magical power of "Silks of Silkworms" is indelible. Lu Changge's ability to hide his breath is not that exaggerated, but it is not impossible to hide from a practitioner who is a small realm higher than himself.

Ning Haoran recalled the situation when he asked Buluoshan and said, "There is indeed a special technique of hiding the breath in Buluoshan. If it weren't for the big gap in realm, it would be difficult to easily detect it."

Hiding aura is just to restrain the aura, which is not a method, but pure introverted aura is also essentially different from allowing oneself to be completely integrated with the world. There is also a special method of hiding aura in the world, which seems to be derived from the faction of formation wizards.

If you don’t fall into the mountain, you will also have a strong foundation for practicing the mountain. Otherwise, it will be difficult to become a five-level sect. Although if a new practitioner who has entered the threshold of the five-level sect appears, the mountain gate he belongs to will rise to the five-level sect. However, for the older generation of five-level sects, a strong foundation is the foundation for them to stand firm.

The former Bulushan was closely related to the formation art sect. It is also very common to have the method of hiding the breath left by the formation art sect in ancient times, but Bulushan has nothing to do with Cao Rushan, a master of formation art in the capital now.

The formation wizards in the past were also divided into sects, and now formation wizards have become individuals and serve the powerful dynasty royal family.

Therefore, except for the existing formation wizard, few practice mountain gates can be fully mastered. At least in Jiang Kingdom, except for the formation wizard master Cao Rushan, there is only one that can hide the aura in the Buluoshan Gate.

......

In the capital covered by light rain, the night sky is dotted with faint stars, hazy.

Although the entire capital was already asleep, the lights were still brightly lit in a fairy palace inn in the outer city. The servants in green clothes were trying their best to serve the cultivators who were temporarily living outside. The maids also served the male monks in groups of three or three.

The Immortal Mansion Inn is a residence specially provided for outside practitioners and was established by the royal family. In addition to some necessary expenses, practitioners do not need to pay money in the Immortal Mansion Inn, but if any practitioner dares to cause trouble in the Immortal Mansion Inn, they will also suffer devastating lessons.

At the time of the Immortal Palace Inn in the big city, at least one high-level monk from the fourth level was in charge. In the capital, there were even a great monk at the peak of the Fourth level, who closely monitored all the movements in the fairy palace. Of course, the surveillance's eyes would not enter the guest room, which was to peek at the guests' privacy and was not allowed.

Xianfu Inn covers a large area and has a special independent courtyard, and Xiao Zhinan lives in one of the courtyards.

And this small courtyard also welcomed an uninvited guest.

Xiao Zhinan stood quietly under the eaves of the courtyard, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him holding an umbrella with one hand and the other behind him, and said calmly: "I remember very clearly that after I came to the capital, I have no big interaction with you Xuan Zhengsi..."

Speaking of this, she seemed to suddenly think of something and said, "If you come because of the man named Wang Zhong who I killed outside the city gate, then I have some interaction with you Xuan Zhengsi."

Zhu Zaitian convinced Wang Zhong to go out of the city with him to intercept Li Mengzhou, but unfortunately met Xiao Zhinan who was with Li Mengzhou. Wang Zhong, who was among the top three of the ministers of Xuanzhengsi, was killed by Xiao Zhinan with a sword.

When Xu Hexian saw Wang Zhong's body, Zhu Zaitian also suffered a serious punishment. Xu Hexian naturally knew who Wang Zhong was killed after investigation.

But he came to find Xiao Zhinan this time, not for Wang Zhong's business.

Although Wang Zhong is also the minister of Xuanzhengsi and Xiao Zhinan is also charged with murdering court officials, compared to Lu Changge, Xiao Zhinan's identity is even more noble. She is from Beiyan and is also a personal disciple of the sword hut. Even if it is Xu Hexian, she will be a little afraid in front of Xiao Zhinan.

Xu Hexian was silent for a moment, then smiled and said, "Wang Zhong collided with Miss Xiao, so he would be responsible for killing him. I don't think I'll cause trouble for Miss Xiao."

Xiao Zhinan said in confusion: "If it weren't for Wang Zhong, why would Xu Sishou look for me?"

Xu Hexian said: "Miss Xiao is a personal legend of Beiyan Langhuan. She has a noble status. In this capital, only Shen Qiubai from Zhaixing Mansion, Mr. Bei and Ligong Chief of the Academy can stand shoulder to shoulder with you. It is just that living in this small fairy mansion inn is really contrary to my hospitality in Jiangguo. I took the liberty to come and comfort me, and I hope Miss Xiao will not be bored."

Xiao Zhinan frowned and said, "I don't understand Xu Sishou's behavior very much. It's not been a day or two since I came to the capital. The officials of Qingyun Supervisory have come to me to meet. You have already taken the approach to hospitality. I want to live in the Immortal Mansion Inn. So Xu Sishou doesn't have to care about his side. Just say anything, just say it."

Xiao Zhinan is very direct. She doesn't like to circle around, especially listening to a lot of nonsense.

Xu Hexian smiled and said, "This is my fault. Miss Xiao is generous, so I'll go straight to the point."

"Although I don't care much about Wang Zhong's affairs, I believe Miss Xiao also knows that the murder of the Censor Yue Shiting was investigated by my Xuanzhengsi and the Jingzhao Mansion of Langya. During the investigation, I found that there were obvious signs of battle in the place where Yue Shiting died, and it was definitely not a weak hand. It seems that Miss Xiao also appeared there, I don't know if there is any reason."

When Qi Xiaoran intercepted and killed Yue Shiting, if it weren't for Xiao Zhinan's appearance, even if there were two people wearing cat-faced and rabbit-faced masks, they could be solved quickly with Qi Xiaoran's cultivation level, so that there would be no trouble left behind with the appearance of witnesses like now.

Xu Hexian also needs to figure out whether it was a coincidence or intentional way for Xiao Zhinan to appear there.

A rabbit-faced mask appeared beside Lu Changge, which forced Xu Hexian to associate this matter with Li Mengzhou. Xiao Zhinan once appeared at the Panlong Banquet with Li Mengzhou, which is a very worthy issue to be investigated.

Xiao Zhinan's expression did not change at all, and he said calmly: "I just felt a strong aura before it appeared there. After leaving Beiyan, I fought with Mr. Li Gongsi, Mr. Bei of the Academy, and Shen Qiubai one after another. Even if I meet someone who is not as good as the three of them, I will try my best to draw my sword."

From the moment Xiao Zhinan walked out of the sword hut, she was accompanied by battles, the peak battle of the Wanli Plain, the artistic conception battle between the capital and Shen Qiubai, and a sword slashed towards Zhuge Dan at the southern city gate. She was holding the sword all the time, which was very common for Xiao Zhinan.

But Xiao Zhinan's words were obviously concealed. What she felt was a strong sword intent, not just a breath. Of course, there was a fundamental difference between the sword intent and the breath. Xu Hexian naturally misunderstood that the powerful aura sensed by Xiao Zhinan belonged to Qi Xiaoran.

Then when Xiao Zhinan felt Qi Xiaoran's existence, he couldn't help but want to draw his sword to fight, which was very reasonable.

Qi Xiaoran is a great cultivator at the peak of the fourth realm. Although he is old enough to be the father of Chen, Bei and Xue, he is indeed a strong man of the same level. Xiao Zhinan would be interested in fighting against Qi Xiaoran. In Xu Hexian's opinion, there is naturally no need to doubt it.

As soon as Xiao Zhinan finished speaking, her eyes became a little sharp, which was a desire to fight, and her target was directed at Xu Hexian!

Xu Hexian is known as the strongest existence in the four realms, and in a sense he is the strongest person under the threshold of the five realms. Even Chen Qiubai and Bei Zangfeng are slightly inferior to Xu Hexian. Xiao Zhinan should have the intention to fight, and it is imminent.

Xu Hexian raised his eyebrows slightly, then smiled and said, "Does Miss Xiao want to fight me?"

Xiao Zhinan didn't say anything, but her right hand had already tightened the Mo Hua Sword.

Most sword cultivators have the same idea, but when they have an idea, they have to take action immediately.

It is an indisputable fact that Xiao Zhinan is belligerent, and Xu Hexian has no doubts since then. As for Xiao Zhinan and Li Mengzhou appeared outside the Panlong Banquet together, there is no problem worth exploring in this matter, because according to Xuan Zhengsi's ability, it is very easy to find out the relationship between the two people outside the capital.

As long as Xiao Zhinan did not stand opposite him, Xu Hexian naturally would not be willing to take the initiative to make grudges.

He smiled slightly and said, "Well, I really want to see Miss Xiao's skill, but I hope we can still stop it. After all, I am already an old bone, and I am afraid I can't let Miss Xiao fight to the fullest."

This is a polite statement.

In his forties, not to mention the world of cultivation, even in the secular world, he is still in his prime. Although Xu Hexian has vaguely surpassed the age of vain and reached the age of the secular world, he is still in a strong year in the world of cultivation.

The elderly in the world of practice and the secular world cannot be compared.

Fighting in the capital is not permitted, and if it is just a simple exchange, it does not affect the outside world, and the court will not control it. It is the most suitable level until it is reached.

Raindrops fell in the night sky, presenting to Xiao Zhinan's eyes. A delicate jade finger on her left hand gently flicked, and the raindrops splashed out in a very explosive manner. Then, the sword of the Mohua was unsheathed, and Xiao Zhinan's figure disappeared from the spot instantly, passing through the vast rain and fog, a red afterimage passed by, and the sword edge had already pointed at Xu Hexian!
Chapter completed!
