Chapter 14 Big Scene Third Watch Collect Recommend
Chen Xiao and Dongfang Yu passed through the main gate of Liu's mansion, and in front of the grand hall, there were already forty or fifty people from the Jianghu community standing there. They looked like they were at least leaders of various sects. In front of everyone, a middle-aged man with a dark brown satin robe, looking elegant and refined, like a wealthy merchant, came forward to greet them. He was Liu Zhengfeng, the master of Liu's mansion and the host of this grand ceremony.
Liu Zhengfeng clasped his fists and bowed deeply, saying: "I am Liu Zhengfeng from Mount Heng. I have long admired the great reputation of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Alas, my martial arts skills are mediocre, and I dare not show off in front of you. Recently, many heroes and good men have come to pay their respects, and I fear that I may have offended you in some way. Please forgive me, Master Dongfang."
The Wuyue Sword Sect and the Dayue Shengjiao were almost sworn enemies, but since the person who came was Dongfang Bu Bai, the leader of the Dayue Shengjiao, one of the top six masters in the world, there is a saying that "first courtesy, then military", so after meeting, they had to make enough polite gestures and did not dare to act rashly with swords, otherwise it would be impossible to avoid bloodshed.
Liu Zhengfeng didn't think that among these people, anyone who really took action could defeat Dongfang Bubai. Moreover, it was the day of his retirement, and he would soon be leaving the Jianghu world, so there was no need to make such a powerful enemy.
Dongfang Bubai made no comment on Liu Zhengfeng's words, only giving a faint "en" before striding into the main hall of the Liu residence. With her exceptional skills and boldness, she was one of the top six martial artists in the Jianghu world, and the various heroes at this Golden Basin Washing Hands Convention were certainly not worthy of her attention.
Chen Xiao rushed up to Liu Zhengfeng with a fist and smiled: "Young Chen Xiao, has seen Senior Liu."
Liu Zhengfeng smiled and said, "Chen Xiaojie's heroic spirit is renowned throughout the world. I was just admiring you when Exterminating Master mentioned it earlier. If you don't mind, why not stay at my residence for a few days? I heard that you have no martial arts skills on your body. Although my own martial arts skills are mediocre, I also want to offer some humble assistance. What do you think?"
Liu Zhengfeng had previously heard a small part of the story from Mie Jue Shitai, and he had a very good impression of Chen Xiao as a person. He said that it was almost equivalent to being able to learn his martial arts without having to pay respects as a disciple.
Chen Xiao naturally knew what he meant, and hastily declined: "Hehe, this young master is just an idle wanderer, it's actually a mistake for seniors to take a liking to him." He said, pointing to Dongfang Bubai walking in front of them, laughing: "For the time being, I still have to follow Master Dongfang first, senior's kindness, this young master can only appreciate it silently."
The relationship between Chen Xiao and Dongfang Bubai was not something that could be explained in a few words, Liu Zhengfeng couldn't guess what was going on between the two of them either, and in the end he had no choice but to give up, silently sighing.
Dongfang Bubai entered the main hall of Liu's mansion and saw that Liu Zhengfeng had already vacated the master seat. Dongfang Bubai didn't stand on ceremony either, and directly sat down.
Although she is opposed to the stance of these Jianghu orthodox people, she dares to come here alone, and everyone admires her courage. Moreover, her martial arts are highly regarded, recognized by the Jianghu community. At this moment, she sits in the main seat, and no one present has any objections.
Moreover, with her presence here in person, even those who would normally discuss and gossip are not daring to bring up the topic of her, fearing that any word might offend her, which would result in their death without a place for burial.
Chen Xiao followed him in and looked around, only then did he finally understand the scale of Liu Zhengfeng's golden basin washing this time.
The four sects closest to the host seat are probably Hua Shan, Heng Shan, Song Shan and Tai Shan of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. Further away, there is also Emei, which was seen before, as well as several other sects that cannot be identified, while the Beggar Gang, Shaolin, Wudang, Qingcheng and others are all represented.
In such a grand scene, Chen Xiao was really a bit disoriented and didn't know where to sit. Just then, a clear and cold female voice saved him: "Young Master Chen, please come sit over here."
Turning his head, Chen Xiao suddenly laughed and hurriedly clasped his fists together, smiling: "Hehe, Shifu, didn't expect to see you again so soon. That little scamp isn't being polite at all, heh heh."
The one who greeted Chen Xiao was naturally Mie Jue Shifu.
She is a person with a bad temper and doesn't care about relationships, but she has a good impression of Chen Xiao. So when she speaks up, people who know her become even more curious about Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao sat down beside the Emei Sect and chatted with Mie Xiu Shifu for a while, then carefully observed the people present. In just a moment, he saw at least three people who absolutely fit the protagonist template.
One of them was wearing a blue Confucian long gown, shaking a folding fan, and had the appearance of an elegant young man. Beside him sat a stunningly beautiful woman in a yellow dress, who looked demure yet also had a hint of naivety, as if she were a fairy descended from heaven. Her attitude towards the blue-shirted youth was quite intimate, and if one's guess was not wrong, these two should be Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan.
Another was a young man who looked about twenty-three or four years old, with a long sword hanging from his waist, looking leisurely and having a carefree and uninhibited demeanor, sitting next to the table closest to the main seat. Next to him sat a girl who looked quite lively and lovely, and the two of them were chatting and laughing together, presumably the rogue Linghu Chong and his little junior sister Yue Lingshan.
The last one was a young camel with an ugly appearance, shrinking in a corner far away. Chen Xiao could see at a glance that the person must be the tragic male protagonist Lin Pingzhi, who had been disguised and changed his appearance, whose whole family had been killed by Yu Canghai, leaving only him alone.
It seems that this world is far more chaotic than I had imagined. Just by simply looking at it, being able to summon so many sects from the Jianghu just by washing one's hands in a golden basin, it can be said that the strength of the Five Mountains Sword Sect in this world is much stronger than I had thought. Along with that, the Qingcheng Sect, which was previously considered to be the weakest among the major villains, also doesn't seem to be weak.
Thinking of this, Chen Xiao looked around and soon saw a short Taoist priest wearing a green robe sitting not far away. The Taoist priest was about fifty years old, with a very thin face and not very tall. Judging from his appearance, he weighed no more than 100 to 200 pounds. It must be Yu Canghai, the leader of Qingcheng Sect.
But Chen Xiao took a closer look, and from the attitude of the various sect leaders sitting around him, it was clear that Yu Canghai was absolutely a thorny figure. Otherwise, in this chaotic Jianghu, with Qingcheng Sect's usual arrogant nature, he would have been eliminated by others long ago.
It's really troublesome, it's really troublesome.
Qingxu was lost in thought, but then heard Ding Yi say: "Yilin, during these days when we were separated, what have you been up to? I heard that someone saw you having dinner and drinks with Tian Boguang. Did he bully you?"
