Joy of Life: Starting from Teacher Fan Xian

Chapter 122 Confrontation with Si Gu Jian

He coughed up a mouthful of blood and flew back in a miserable state.

Up to this point, seven of the thirteen disciples of Jianlu have died.

The others in the room were horrified. Li Bohua said in disbelief, "Aren't there only four Grand Masters in the world?"

Then he sighed again: "It is better to let him in. Master is his opponent."

Wang Shisanlang rolled his eyes and said angrily: "As disciples of Jianlu, we should fight for our master. Even if we can't stop him, we have to stop him."

"It doesn't matter. It's just spitting out blood." Li Bohua was at least thankful that the enemy in front of him had no intention of killing him.

"Junior brother, as the master's beloved disciple, you should go first. Maybe the master can't bear to see you being bullied and will attack you immediately. This way, I, your senior brother, can avoid getting beaten in vain." Li Bohua's eyes lit up and he smiled embarrassedly.

Wang Shisanlang glared at him and said unhappily, "Brother, you have seen too much money and have developed a businessman's profit-seeking mentality."

What he said was relatively calm. If Yun Zhilan had opened his mouth, he would probably have said something even more unpleasant.

But Yun Zhilan was now exhausted and it was extremely difficult for him to even move, so how could he scold anyone?

"Mr. Lin, I'm grateful for your advice." Wang Shisan bowed, and the emotions in his eyes gradually faded. The sword was suddenly unsheathed and fell into the air, with a cold light gradually rising.

Before the person arrived, the sword intent was already coming towards him.

"As expected, he is the youngest and most talented disciple in Jian Lu." Lin Ruo exclaimed. This sword energy mixed with pure will is completely worthy of the sword style that only cares about the future.

Lin Ruo flicked his sleeves, and the two sides moved and then remained still. After only one move, Wang Shisanlang's sword missed.

He raised his head somewhat angrily and was slapped by Lin Ruo.

Seeing this, the other four disciples attacked together, and Lin Ruo beat them back one by one.

In the end, only one of the Four Swordsmen, Li Bohua, was left standing in the arena.

Li Bohua cautiously took two steps back, pointed at his fellow apprentices lying prone on the field, and said with a smile: "If you hit them, you can't hit me."

"This reason is not valid." Lin Ruo rushed forward.

"Someone has to stay to take care of them."

Lin Ruo stopped in front of Li Bohua and nodded: "This reason is acceptable. I believe it."

Lin Ruo smiled, put his hands behind his back, and walked into the courtyard in a leisurely manner.

Li Bohua breathed a sigh of relief and went forward to help up his senior brother Yun Zhilan. The former weakly cursed: "You really bring shame to our sect."

"If the master doesn't stop him, what's the point for us to stop him?" Li Bohua saw it clearly.

Yun Zhilan cursed: "This is not a reason."

"Okay, okay, that's not a reason. It's because I was soft-hearted that you only had to lie in bed for two days. If you get hit one more time, you won't be able to get out of bed for half a year. Does that count as a reason?" Li Bohua spoke very cunningly.

Yun Zhilan stopped talking because he really couldn't say anything. His injuries were obviously not serious, but he had no strength at all, which made him speechless.

Lin Ruo walked to the door of the thatched cottage, kicked it open, put his hands on his hips, and walked in arrogantly.

The Jianlu disciples were stunned by this scene. Li Bohua scratched his head and said, "He doesn't want to fight with Master again, does he?"

"Master always kills people at will, he can't survive." Yun Zhilan finally gritted his teeth and said something.

Li Bohua shook his head: "I dare to bet with my senior brother that he can come out safely."

"Why?" Shisan Wang asked, leaning against the wall.

Li Bohua suddenly felt a little indignant. After thinking for a while, he said in frustration: "I always feel that the master is playing tricks on us."

In the dark thatched cottage, Lin Ruo walked into one room after another. He could feel the sword intent becoming stronger and stronger, and he knew that he was almost at Si Gu Jian's room.

When we reached the door of the sixth thatched cottage, we finally saw a faint light coming from inside.

Lin Ruo just bowed devoutly: "Master Sword Saint, I, Lin Ruo, am honored to meet you."

"You are polite. Humph. You have disturbed the Sword House and turned it upside down. If this gets out after today, my Dongyi City will lose all its reputation. And you will be admired by thousands of people in Nanqing. Even the Emperor will have to trust you to the utmost in the future."

Si Gu Jian's cold voice came from the room, carrying with it a deep and endless murderous intent.

If an ordinary person stood here, this murderous intent alone would be enough to kill someone.

"The only solution now is that you must die, only then can the dignity of my Sword House be restored."

Lin Ruo felt that he was being abandoned after his efforts had been put to use, and sighed, "Isn't this all arranged by the Sword Saint? I am just taking advantage of the opportunity, and I really don't know what crime I have committed."

"This is ridiculous. You and I have never had any contact at all, so how can there be any connection?" Si Gu Jian said angrily through the door.

Lin Ruo explained: "No intersection does not mean no dealings. The Sword Saint deliberately set up defenses in the Sword Hut, isn't it to remind the juniors to come and break in?"

"Haha, that's your reason, it's totally unfounded." A silly laugh came from inside. Lin Ruo also smiled calmly: "Since the Sword Saint said so, can I also think that the world's number one sword house, with twelve ninth-grade masters and the strongest grandmaster in the world, is still guarding day and night, isn't it also unfounded?"

"You are a young man, how dare you say this to me? Even if the old cripple from your Supervisory Council came, he would not be qualified." The voice from the other side of the door grew louder and louder, and a sword intent seeped out and penetrated the top corner of the thatched cottage.

The warm moonlight shines in through the gaps, adding a special feeling.

"I'm not Ye Liuyun. I'm not going to let you go just because I see you have some ability."

This Si Gu Jian is really good at acting... Lin Ruo cursed inwardly, but said submissively on the surface: "I wonder how the Sword Saint plans to deal with me."

"Of course it's to take your life." Si Gu Jian said sternly, then slowed down.

"But considering that Fei Jie cured my illness many years ago, I can let you go for now, just as a way of repaying that favor."

"Then I have to thank the Sword Saint for his generosity." Lin Ruo said politely, and then talked about business. "This time, I came to your house, and I hope the Sword Saint will take back his previous order and reconsider the case."

There was silence inside the door for a while, and then a voice came out slowly: "Who killed her?"

Lin Ruo said in a deep voice: "I think Master Sword Saint has an idea in his mind."

Si Gu Jian couldn't help but sigh: "I was wondering why she died at the hands of the extremely stupid old Qing nobles. It seems that my guess back then was always correct. Only the most sinister and cunning person in the world could kill her."

Si Gu Jian broke into the Qing Palace three times at night. At that time, he identified the culprit as Emperor Qing. He had no evidence, but he stubbornly believed so from beginning to end.

Ye Qingmei is not someone who can be killed casually, so there must be someone behind the scenes organizing a huge conspiracy.

In other words, Si Gu Jian believed that Emperor Qing was the best planner in the world, so he was certain that he was the murderer.

"Where is the child?" Si Gu Jian asked.

"That child nearly died at the hands of your disciples."

"Turns out it's him." Si Gu Jian let out a meaningful sigh.

"I know that the Sword Saint has also joined the Junshan Society, trying to find an opportunity with the unreasonable Princess to kill Emperor Qing at some point, so the Princess was able to mobilize the Sword House disciples in the Niulan Street case." Lin Ruo revealed.

Si Gu Jian smiled and said without hiding anything, "So you also know this. I did plant some disciples in Junshan Society in order to be honest with the princess. This is only one reason. On the other hand, there is also a secret economic relationship between the inner treasury and my Dongyi City. It's just that she was so bold as to mobilize the disciples of Jianlu and even failed to assassinate. These are two points that surprised me."

"Other than that, the Cangshan case and the border issues have nothing to do with our Dongyi City." Si Gu Jian shook his head through the door. Lin Ruo could see his figure clearly.

"The Cangshan case was done by Wu Zhu in order to protect Fan Xian." Lin Ruo said frankly. He didn't need to hide anything from Si Gu Jian.

Si Gu Jian said in a daze: "He is still so protective, but why didn't he..."

"Wuzhu is not omnipotent." Lin Ruo said.

"He is the messenger from the temple, and Ye Qingmei is a fairy from heaven. I always thought that they were both omnipotent, otherwise they would not have caused so many troubles in the world." Si Gu Jian couldn't help but smile.

The fairies in the sky are so superstitious...

"Old Cripple and Wu Zhu should know as well." Si Gu Jian suddenly stood up excitedly, and Lin Ruo saw it clearly.

"Everything still needs to be planned, so I came to find Lord Sword Saint." Lin Ruo replied calmly.

Si Gu Jian sat down again through the door: "Impossible, Wu Zhu is more capable of killing than I am. He won't be so polite and plan slowly. What are you hiding?"

"Wuzhu later developed a bad memory and forgot a lot of things. Otherwise, he would know who the murderer was without me reminding him." Lin Ruo continued.

"Hahaha." Si Gu Jian laughed, "Then he is just as idiotic and brainless as I was back then."

Is this also something that needs to be compared... Lin Ruo was very surprised.

"So you need my help?" Si Gu Jian said.

Lin Ruo gently refuted: "It is not necessarily that I need the help of Master Sword Saint. On the contrary, Master Sword Saint probably needs the help of me more."

Si Gu Jian was silent for a while, then said, "You are from Qing country, and you have nothing to do with Ye Qingmei."

Lin Ruo knew what he wanted to say and replied, "I am Fan Xian's teacher."

"This is not an absolute reason." Si Gu Jian has killed many people, and he really doesn't believe that anyone would do such a shocking thing just for the title of a teacher.

"Master Sword Saint, haven't you discovered the peculiarities in me yet?" Lin Ruo asked.

Si Gu Jian said with a bitter face: "You know, my brain has always been very poor."

Lin Ruo smiled slightly: "Master Sword Saint should have heard of the Heavenly Vein."

Si Gu Jian's expression froze inside the door, and then he reacted: "Yes, you should be that kind of person."

Lin Ruo told a lie, but this lie was very convincing. After all, a great master who transcends the world must not be an ordinary person.

Like the four great masters of the world, it was because they met unusual people.
