She is Jianxiu

Chapter 1271 Chapter is late

Xiangxuan Cave Heaven and Qiushuze.

Although the owner of the cave, Lu Wang, was not a person who attained enlightenment through the water-walking method, most of the disciples who lived and practiced in Qiu Shuze were cultivators who had studied the two Taoist books, "The Thirty-Six Rivers Xuan Ze Golden Scripture" and "The Chang Yuan Bi Xu Book". Therefore, they were particularly fond of the clear streams and marshes. Mist could be seen everywhere on all sides, as if it were a fairy palace surrounded by clouds.

There are two regions, nine lakes and forty-eight islands in Qiu Shuze. As the true disciple of Longhu Tower and the direct disciple of Lu Xianren, Hang Shubai has always been deeply loved by his master. Therefore, he alone occupied four lakes and thirty-six islands, and took Chengyuan Island, which is located in the center and has the best feng shui, as his residence. He renovated it into more than a hundred courtyards and houses, and his disciples also practiced here with him.

Hang Shubai's mentor's real name is Xiang Xuan, and he is the third disciple of Master Lu. Unfortunately, he has never achieved the state of Dongxu, and is still lingering in the realm of Tongshen. He is inevitably a little depressed, but fortunately, he has a disciple with excellent aptitude, who has been highly regarded for many years and has never been harsh to him.

They also turned a blind eye to what he did in private.

There was no reasonable reason for challenging Zhao Yu to a duel, so Hang Shubai had to use the name of his master to hold a small meeting in Qiu Shuize to discuss the scriptures. Although the disciples knew that he had other intentions, many of them came just for Elder Xiang's explanation of the scriptures, which shows that the notes of the spiritual monk are really valuable.

He had created such a big momentum beforehand that he was not worried about Zhao Yu's absence today. Anyway, if the latter really didn't come, it would confirm the claim that the other party was worried and didn't dare to attend the meeting, which would also suppress his prestige.

There were crowds of guests in Qiu Shuize, and the island in the middle of the lake where today's meeting was held was even more lively.

Hang Shubai sat in the main seat. As he was preaching on behalf of his master, all the guests were very polite to him. From time to time, one could hear the boys loudly calling out the names of the disciples who had arrived. Those who knew each other sat together, and three or five of them would chat loudly, which was a very pleasant sight.

Suddenly, the boy's voice became louder and louder, calling out the name: "Putuo Cave Heaven, the Venerable Xing Wuxing has arrived!"

The person who came seemed quite impressive, so everyone stopped talking and looked over. They saw Xing Xi slowly walk in with wide sleeves and a long gown. Although she was not very pretty, she had a calm expression and outstanding bearing, like a tree that stands out in the forest, which made people calm down unconsciously.

When Hang Shubai saw her coming, he was a little surprised, because he didn't have much personal relationship with Xing Xi, and they had only talked to each other before. Handing her the invitation was just a courtesy, and he didn't expect that she would really come here.

He only thought about it for a moment, then immediately stood up, nodded and said, "Junior Sister Xing is here, please take a seat quickly."

Although Xing Xi has only been included in the Dragon and Tiger Tower Heavenly Ranking in recent years and her ranking is not high, being only the bottom among the twelve people on the Heavenly Ranking, she is still young in experience and is much younger than the senior brothers and sisters in front of her. When Cheng Mianzhen's generation of disciples moves up in the future, Xing Xi may be the leader of the new disciples. She should not be underestimated.

Xing Wu smiled and bowed, then followed Hang Shubai's signal and sat down at the lower left position. She immediately said, "Elder Xiang is proficient in the art of observing and sensing qi, which is also of great benefit to us in our meditation and enlightenment. Brother Hang, please don't think I am bothering you when I come here today."

Hang Shubai waved his hands repeatedly, saying he didn't know, and then listened to Xing Wu's talk: "I heard that all the senior brothers and sisters are also very interested in this, I'm afraid they will be here soon."

As if they were singing the same tune as her, two true disciples came over one after another. They were all people who had appeared in Cheng Mianzhen's mansion that day. Among them was Fan Chenghan, who had just been deprived of his position in the Dragon and Tiger Tower.

After that, several more people arrived one after another. They were all true disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Tower. Even Han Yingchu, who ranked third on the Heavenly Ranking, came in person, which surprised Hang Shubai. As the host of the meeting, he should have arranged seats for these distinguished guests. He did not make any mistakes for a while, but he had to think more because of the arrival of Xing Wu and others. Unfortunately, although he was brave and good at fighting, he was not very good at playing tricks. Even if he thought about what happened today, he just felt that Zhao Yu was too eye-catching, so Xing Wu and others wanted to come and see her make a fool of herself.

As long as Cheng Mianzhen doesn't step forward to stop him, what can the other disciples do to him?

Hang Shubai's eyes turned cold, and he looked at the empty seat in the guest gallery. He snorted softly with a look of contempt.

His behavior was not concealed, so everyone could see where his gaze was. He saw that the seat was empty, but there was an incense burner and paperweight on it, and there were servants standing on both sides, all with their heads lowered and waiting for orders. So he knew who the seat was for.

"Has Xihe Sword Master not arrived yet?" someone asked in a low voice.

The person next to him shook his head in a mysterious manner and said, "Maybe there is something else important—"

"The matter of the demon seed has been completely resolved. What else could be the important matter?" Someone interrupted immediately, saying with a gloating tone, "Maybe he is afraid of Senior Brother Hang. After all, Senior Brother Hang is already sixth on the Heavenly Ranking. His seniority is not lower than that of the senior brother above him."

The disciple who was interrupted by him looked embarrassed and seemed to want to say something in rebuttal, but was immediately stopped by the people around him.

Hang Shubai is arrogant and proud, and ordinary disciples are not worthy of his attention. Therefore, among the disciples who accepted the invitation and came here today, except for Xing Yu and others, the other cultivators are all true disciples of the sect, and naturally they have no scruples about Zhao Yu.

Although he had already prepared for the fact that Zhao Yu would not come, when he saw that he really was not coming, Hang Shubai's face suddenly showed some displeasure, as if he had been humiliated. He could not help but feel secretly angry, thinking that Zhao Yu was really arrogant.

Thinking that the time was approaching, Hang Shubai snorted softly, exchanged glances with Yuan Donglai who was sitting below, and decided to continue with today's meeting without staying here any longer.

  But at this moment, the boy who was greeting guests outside suddenly had his pupils shrink, and he looked up quickly, only to see a sword rainbow in the blue sky, like a meteor chasing the moon, quickly falling. In just a blink of an eye, a sword light like a stunning beauty descended, and in a moment the sword light converged, and a tall female cultivator strode over. Without even a glance at him, she walked towards the table as if no one was around!

The boy had never seen a real person, but he recognized Zhao Yu's portrait. He was stunned for a moment, then he immediately raised his voice and shouted, "Really, Zhenyang Cave Heaven, the Venerable Zhao Yu has arrived!"

In an instant, everyone in the room fell silent, and only the sharp and shrill voice of the boy could be heard everywhere. It was as quiet as a deep pond.

Zhao Yu walked to the main seat with big strides without looking around, and saluted calmly, "I am Zhao Yu, and I am honored to meet all the senior brothers and sisters."
