The capital of Northern Yan State, Zhongqing City.

In the hot summer and summer season, people wearing thin jackets can still be seen in Beiyan territory. The Tianqi Snow Mountain, which has been swept and snow for many years, makes most of the northern Yan territory seem to be in a season forever.

The capital of Beiyan is relatively better. The towns that are really close to the snow-capped mountains are frozen thousands of feet away, and the people are suffering. If it weren't for the formation art masters who blessed the formation art, ordinary people would not be able to survive.

In a small town very close to Zhongqing City, the cold wind was howling, and the people on the street were wearing thin jackets to dispel the cold with their busy schedules. This place is far away from the snow-capped mountains, which is the temperature of ordinary early winter. However, it was clearly in the hot summer, for the people of Northern Yan who were used to it, there was nothing to say, but Liu Feiyu couldn't stand it anymore.

He has been in Beiyan for quite some time. He looked at the sun in the sky every day, but could not feel the temperature at all. Although it was not too cold, he once dreamed of finding a place where winter and summer were warm, but the word "warm winter and summer" was obviously not suitable for use here.

It is not warm in winter and it is indeed very cool in summer. If this continues, even if Liu Feiyu, as a practitioner, will not get sick easily, she still feels a little uncomfortable.

He missed his wife and his son. He felt that if he continued to stay in Beiyan, he might really get sick.

Fortunately, the spy from Tianshu Court brought him good news, that is, he can go home.

In fact, he had nothing to clean up, but in the process of secretly investigating Han Yiluo, he also dealt with many practice sects in Beiyan. Even if he had hidden his identity, there would inevitably be many practitioners blocking the passages everywhere. It was not easy to reach the border safely.

Although the intelligence agency in Beiyan is much worse than that of Tianshu Institute, it is not useless. Liu Feiyu is also worried about whether he will be noticed by the Beiyan court and take any action against him.

After all, he caused a lot of trouble in Beiyan. Although his identity has not been revealed so far, there are clearly traces of officers and soldiers searching everywhere within a hundred miles of Zhongqing City. Although no portrait was leaked, his five-level cultivation was real. For no reason, a great monk from the fifth level appeared. If he was noticed by the powerful practitioners of Beiyan, he would definitely guess the problem.

He can easily hide from most people, but the existence of great monks in the same realm, even stronger than him, is something he hides without any trace.

Moreover, in order not to expose the spy of Tianshu Courtyard hidden in the capital of Beiyan, Liu Feiyu took action personally every time he acted. The spy of Tianshu Courtyard only provided him with some clues. He knew very well how many powerful practitioners were in Zhongqing City.

Northern Yan is a completely different dynasty from Jiang Kingdom.

The Jiang Kingdom is equal to the world of practice. For example, the Academy and Zhaixing Mansion, the Ligong Sword Court can basically have the same weight as His Majesty the Emperor and have a great say, but above the Northern Yan royal family, there is still a Taoist palace suppressing it.

Even the Prince of Snowy Night in the Royal Family of Northern Yan is a disciple of the Taoist Palace. In some aspects, it can even determine the ownership of the Northern Yan imperial power. Many princes in Northern Yan want to worship the Taoist Palace. If they can get the support of the Taoist Palace, the throne will basically be a foregone conclusion.

But Xue Ye is not only the Prince of Beiyan, but his cultivation qualifications are also a monster. He is the most popular figure standing at the peak of the younger generation of Beiyan practitioners. Even Xiao Zhinan is slightly inferior. It is extremely difficult for those princes to shake Prince of Xue Ye.

It can be said that in Beiyan territory, except for Langhuan Jianlu and Wuya Academy, basically all the strong practitioners come from the Taoist Palace. Even if they are not disciples of the Taoist Palace, they will definitely receive favors from the Taoist Palace. Langhuan Jianlu is the only sect that has no connection with the Taoist Palace.

The ones that Liu Feiyu can be afraid of in Beiyan are the master of Langhuan Sword and the big figures in the Dao Palace. The former will not easily interfere in the affairs of the Beiyan court, but the Dao Palace is closely linked to the Beiyan royal family. If a strong man from the Dao Palace appears, even Liu Feiyu will have to worry about it.

In the evening, Liu Feiyu, fully armed, left the town alone and set out towards the Yanjiang border.

At almost the same time, Emperor Beiyan met someone in the palace hall of Zhongqing City.

It was an old man in a gray robe with a restrained aura. If it weren't for the sword behind him, he would have looked like an ordinary old man.

But Emperor Beiyan knew very well that the old man who looked very ordinary in front of him was actually a big man in the Taoist palace. He was not a polite remark, but a real big man.

As long as he thinks, Zhongqing City can be destroyed in an instant and become a dead desert.

"I have seen the King's Master, but I didn't expect the Taoist Palace to send the King's Master over, which really surprised Xiao Wang."

Even the emperor of Northern Yan and the actual ruler of one of the most powerful dynasties in the world, he must keep his posture to the lowest point when facing the great figures in the Taoist palace.

Wang Xingzhi not only comes from the Taoist Palace, but also has a very high status in the Taoist Palace. The Northern Yan Emperor may not have to care about ordinary Taoist Palace disciples, but when facing Wang Xingzhi, the Northern Yan Emperor seemed to be a minister and was trembling.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to be too polite. Since there are sluts in Zhongqing City, if there is a Taoist palace in the court, the Taoist palace will take it to heart and will not be perfunctory."

Emperor Beiyan was very enthusiastic and quickly welcomed Wang Xingzhi to the seat and said sincerely: "I also need to be cared for by the King's Master when practicing in the Taoist Palace on a snowy night. It is just a trivial matter, but I want the King's Master to go there in person. Xiao Wang is very ashamed."

Wang Xingzhi said calmly: "The cultivation qualification of Prince Xueye is rare in the world. The Taoist Palace should do its best to cultivate it. He has a deep understanding of the "Taixuan Baishou Sutra". He is a natural Taoist sage son. I believe that when Prince Xueye has a deeper understanding of the "Taixuan Baishou Sutra", he will have hope to cross that threshold and surpass all young strong people in the world. Shen Qiubai, who is praised by the so-called son of Daotian in Jiang Kingdom, will eventually be the defeated general of Prince Xueye."

Prince Xueye was not only highly expected by the Northern Yan royal family, but also an important figure who could inherit the Dao Palace's throne in the future. Compared with him, Shen Qiubai started very low.

Zhaixing Mansion is not qualified to be compared with the Tao Palace. Even if it is only Wang Xingzhi, he can still level the entire Zhaixing Mansion alone. Prince Xueye is the personal disciple of the Tao Palace Lord. His identity is extremely noble and a genius who is well-known in the world.

Only the Lihua Academy can sit in Jiangguo's territory. Bei Zangfeng, who is also personally taught by the academy, is actually equal to Prince Xueye in terms of identity. However, Bei Zangfeng's reputation is even under Shen Qiubai in Jiangguo, and it cannot be compared with Prince Xueye's reputation.

Emperor Beiyan was also extremely proud of having such a son on a snowy night, but the only thing worth criticizing is that in the eyes of the world, it seems that his son's status is much higher than that of him. Although Emperor Beiyan felt a little uncomfortable, he was his own son after all, and happiness was better than sorrow.

"Regularly speaking, the ability of the Northern Yan court should not be as good as asking for help from the Dao Palace. As long as there is no problem that requires the monks of the fifth realm to come forward to solve, the power in Zhongqing City will be enough to settle it."

The practitioners in Zhongqing City are not like the capital of Jiang Kingdom. Although there are many powerful monks, they have entered the threshold of the fifth realm, and there are very few big things like Xue Wangyou, and they are not even present.

Because the fortune holy land of Beiyan is not in the capital, there is no need for the great monks of the fifth realm to squeeze in Zhongqing City. If the royal family of Beiyan controls the fortune holy land, why should we look at the face of the Taoist Palace? The situation is naturally the opposite of now.

Emperor Beiyan's face was a little solemn, and he said, "To be honest, there are indeed mysterious practitioners who know the gods in the five realms near Zhongqing City that are in secret. Many sects have discovered clues. The mysterious monks seem to be investigating something. During the process, many sect monks were killed, but the other party's cultivation level was too high. Although they took several actions, they all returned in vain. To this day, they don't even know what the other party looks like."

Wang Xingzhi frowned and said, "The great monks who crossed the threshold of the five realms in Yan State are all under the eye of my Taoist Palace. If a great monk in the fifth realm appears near Zhongqing City, then he can only come from the outside world."

Emperor Beiyan said: "Maybe it is related to the young man named Han Yi back then."

Wang Xingzhi narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Han Yi is the most qualified disciple in the Bu Er Cave. When he entered the world, he established an unparalleled position among his younger generation. He was indeed a rising star. Even Prince Xueye, his achievements are only equal to Han Yi back then. If Han Yi was still alive, the position he stood would be extremely terrifying."

The white-robed swordsman Han Yi is the most terrifying existence with his qualifications to practice so far. The only person who can compare with him is Su Bieli. Everyone is sad about Han Yi's early death, because he is expected to become the youngest cultivator to break through the barriers of the five realms.

But he disappeared from the human world without even crossing the threshold of the five realms.

This is indeed an extremely regrettable and regretful thing.

When the Bu Er Cave was destroyed, people in the world thought that everyone in the Bu Er Cave was buried in the sea of ​​fire, but two years later, Han Yi quietly appeared in Beiyan territory, and even when everyone was not aware of it, a mountain gate of cultivation was destroyed overnight.

The Northern Yan royal family hid this matter as fast as possible, but in the end, some clues were exposed to the world and were sung by many storytellers. However, the authenticity is questionable. Although it will indeed cause some people's suspicion, it is more of a story to listen to.

The story of the white-robed swordsman Han Yi.

Even though many years have passed, except for some storytellers, Han Yi's name rarely appears in the world, but storytellers wander around, and different versions of the story with Han Yi as the protagonist are still being promoted.

It seems that Han Yi has never disappeared in this world, and his name has always existed.

It is normal for some people to turn their attention to Beiyan again.

But there are probably only a handful of forces who want to find traces of Han Yi's existence in Beiyan territory.

The most critical issue is that Han Yi was from Jin, but he grew up in Jiang Country.

The mysterious monks who appeared in Zhongqing City could only come from the Western Jin Dynasty or the Jiang Kingdom.

Wang Xingzhi stood in front of the Beiyan Palace, his eyes swept at the entire Zhongqing City. His consciousness gradually spread out, crossing hundreds of miles away. The practitioners who appeared in his vision shuddered inexplicably, as if they were peeked at by a pair of eyes, but they could not notice any abnormality.

Zhongqing City is a hundred miles apart. Except for the five-level monks who have recorded records in the Taoist Palace, the only stranger who appears is easily locked by Wang Xingzhi's consciousness.

"Finished him."

......

......

The capital of Jiangguo.

Ligong Sword Courtyard.

Sword cliff.

Smoke and dust slowly rose up.

Looking at the smoke and dust, Li Mengzhou looked a little solemn.

That is a very close to the peak.

He has a strong sword intent and is boiling.

The sharp aura that seemed to tear apart swept towards Li Mengzhou at a blink of an eye, and instantly filled the entire sword cliff.

Li Mengzhou's body was a little shaky and his face was very pale. He said in a panic: "What is Xiao Zhinan doing? Is there really a sword intent of the sword immortal on the top of the peak? She wants to swallow the sword intent?"

The sword intent in the sword cliff is all owned by Ligong Sword Courtyard. Xue Wangyou allowed Xiao Zhinan to climb the sword cliff, which did not mean that Xiao Zhinan could do whatever he wanted, but Xue Wangyou did not appear on the sword cliff, and even Ning Haoran did not move.

The sword cliff is close to the top of the peak, and the crazy and raging sword intent of the entire Ligong Sword Court can detect it, but except for a few people, the disciples of Ligong Sword Court do not know that there is a second person on the sword cliff besides Li Mengzhou, so they instinctively guessed that perhaps Li Mengzhou had some insights on the sword cliff.

But it was too exaggerated to erupt such a strong sword intent. Li Mengzhou only climbed the sword cliff in midnight.

Ning Haoran's gaze moved away from the sword cliff, looked at the teacher lying on the bamboo chair, hesitated for a moment, and said, "Xiao Zhinan is from Beiyan after all. Let her feel at the sword cliff because of the friendship between being disciples of the sword cliff. It would be a bit impolite to try to climb the top of the sword cliff now."

Xue Wangyou closed her eyes and said in a lazy voice: "It is rare to be a truly polite sword cultivator. Xiao Zhinan is definitely not. She will definitely do what she wants to do, but she won't care whether this is polite."

Ning Haoran remained silent.

Xue Wangyou continued, "What's more, it's not so easy to get up at the top of Jianya Peak. Even your senior brother doesn't have the qualifications. It's good to try and it's normal to face failure. This process is always needed, otherwise she will always think about it."

Ning Haoran said: "Xiao Zhinan is really a wonderful woman. Her will is extremely firm and she has always been walking fearlessly on her own path. How terrible her future achievements should be."

Xue Wangyou snorted coldly and said, "You are so embarrassed to say this? You obviously have the opportunity to get a trace of the true intention of the Sword Immortal, and don't understand it well. Do you have to watch your junior brother and sister surpass you? You were defeated so miserably in the Wanli Plain and lost all your face as a teacher. Since you know how strong Xiao Zhinan is, you have to be more determined and defeat her. You are not praising her here."

Ning Haoran looked at the teacher with aggrievedness. The true intention of the Sword Immortal is not so easy to understand. Besides, Xie Chunfeng is eyeing him, and he may surpass him at any time. Ning Haoran also wants to become stronger, but this kind of thing is not something that can be achieved.

......

The stars on the sword cliff were very bright, as if within reach. The moonlight shone on the mountain road, like snow. The red figure slowly came from the top of the peak and stepped on the snow.

At that moment, the stars seemed to dim a little.

The light of the stars and moon shines on Xiao Zhinan's face with great beauty.

Her slender figure is plump and graceful, and her steps are lightly trampled on the gravel on the mountain road. Her black hair blooms in the most beautiful moments with the wind. Her jade-like skin is blushed and her expression is indifferent, but she still cannot cover her peerless face, and she is really as gorgeous as fireworks.

A hint of throbbing appeared in Li Mengzhou's heart inexplicably.

He stood there quietly, looking at Xiao Zhinan from far to near, unable to tell what it felt like, but he just felt that the picture was so beautiful.

Xiao Zhinan straightened his messy hair, looked at the inclined Li Mengzhou, raised his lips slightly, and said, "Does it look good?"

Li Mengzhou nodded subconsciously and said, "It looks so good."

He quickly came to his senses and waved his hands in a panic and said, "I have nothing else to say!"

Xiao Zhinan's expression gradually became colder and said, "If you look good, you will look good. If you don't look good, you will look bad. After saying it's good, you reject it. Do you mean I'm ugly?"
