Just as he was thinking about this, a system notification suddenly sounded in his ear.
" Ding! Huang Rong's favorability towards you 30, from 50 to 80."
"Favorable impression points increased? What was going on? Didn't you leave without looking back?"
Zhao Xuan was a little confused.
However, he soon understood.
"Hehe, Sister Huang Rong is very scheming. She doesn't say thank you in front of me, but she secretly has a good impression of me. In the original novel, she fell in love with Guo Jing. It must have been a beautiful misunderstanding.”
Huang Rong's back had already disappeared from the verdant forest in front of him.
Looking at Ouyang Ke's corpse, Zhao Xuan snorted coldly in his heart.
"Today, I killed Ouyang Ke, which means I have completely offended Ouyang Feng. Ouyang Feng is a grandmaster of his generation and is at least at the late stage of the Xiantian realm.”
At this time, Wu Zetian walked over with a slightly apologetic expression and said,"Young master, Reverend Lingzhi jumped into the river and escaped. The current was too fast, so I couldn't catch up.”
Wu Zetian was smart and capable. She knew that Venerable Lingzhi's escape meant that Zhao Xuan's whereabouts had been leaked, which would cause endless trouble in the future. She felt very guilty about this.
Zhao Xuan brushed her hair lightly and did not blame her.
"So what if he escaped? That kind of three-legged cat is not worth worrying about. Besides, I didn't ask you to kill Reverend Lingzhi. The task I gave you is to protect Little Ying. This has nothing to do with you. This is Zhu Cong's problem. You don't have to blame yourself or feel guilty.”
Wu Zetian shook her head and said," Young Master has treated me well. I'm Young Master's person, so I should share your worries. I've never considered Young Master's concerns, and I've never worried about Young Master's worries."”
She had to help Zhao Xuan consider the things that he had not considered. Zhao Xuan didn't have anything to do with Zhou Quan, so she had to help him.
Even though Zhao Xuan didn't ask her to deal with Reverend Lingzhi, she still took it upon herself. Now that Lord Lingzhi had escaped, she felt extremely guilty.
Zhao Xuan didn't say anything. He quietly opened his arms and pulled her into his embrace. After a while, they separated.
The two of them looked at each other, and everything was said without a word.
At this moment, the bad guys had been killed and the crisis had been resolved. Han Xiaoying and Zhu Cong helped the injured Guo Jing up and applied medicine on him.
"Swordsman Zhu and Little Ying, let's return to White Emperor City.”
Zhao Xuan considered Guo Jing's injury and let him sit in the carriage. Anyway, White Emperor City was not far away. Han Xiaoying and the others returned to the city on foot.
In the time it took to brew a cup of tea, everyone had returned to White Emperor City.
In front of a restaurant.
Han Xiaoying stared at Zhao Xuan with a smile and invited him warmly,""Young master Zhao, my big brother and the others are in this restaurant. Young master is a young hero, and my big brother will definitely like you. We have been through thick and thin together today, and thanks to you for saving Jing 'er and giving me the Purple Light Wooden Sword, we should go in and have a drink together.”
"Alright," said Zhao Xuan.
Han Xiaoying and Zhu Cong walked into the restaurant first, followed by Zhao Xuan and Wu Zetian.
Among the four main quests, there was the quest to defeat the Jiangnan Seven Monsters and the Quan Zhen Seven. Now that the Jiangnan Seven Monsters were upstairs, Zhao Xuan naturally had to go and meet them. Moreover, he had heard that the Jiangnan Seven Monsters had invited the Seven Sons of Quan Zhen. If he was lucky, he could even complete the mission in one go.
After the time for an incense stick to burn.
At the dining table by the window in the restaurant's main hall.
"Young Master Zhao, I, Ke Zhen 'e, offer you a toast. Jing' er's martial arts are limited, so thank you for your help.”
Ke Zhenge, who was already blind, stood up from his chair and raised his wine glass. He had a smile on his face and looked very bold.
Just now, Han Xiaoying had explained in detail how Zhao Xuan saved Guo Jing and how to kill the strong enemy. Ke Zhenge and the others listened to this and all had a good impression of Zhao Xuan.
Regarding Zhao Xuan's identity as a prince, Han Xiaoying did not deliberately mention it. She just called him Young Master Zhao. Ke Zhenge and others only regarded him as a young master surnamed Zhao.
"I, Ke Zhen, will do it!" Ke Zhenge drank it all in one gulp.
"Hero Ke has a good tolerance for alcohol, hehe."
Zhao Xuan said with a smile. He didn't stand on ceremony and downed the wine in his cup in one go.
At this moment, Quan Jinfa stood up, raised his wine glass, and laughed heartily,""This cup is too small. This deal is not worth it. You have to exchange it for a big bowl. Young Master Zhao, let me toast to you. Thank you for saving Guo Jing.”
A large bowl of liquor was filled, and Quan Jinfa finished it in one gulp.
Zhao Xuan also changed to a big bowl and downed it in one gulp.
Zhao Xuan was quite fond of the Jiangnan Seven Monsters.
These people did not have any bad intentions and liked to fight for justice. When they heard about the massacre of the Guo and Yang families, they empathized with them and were heartbroken.
For the sake of a promise, they had traveled thousands of mountains and rivers, experienced countless snowstorms, and finally found Guo Jing, who was still a child, in the Mongolian desert.
After they found Guo Jing, they spent eighteen years carefully nurturing him, teaching him martial arts and chivalrous arts. Guo Jing's ability to become a hero of his generation was inseparable from their teachings.
This loyalty was admirable.
This perseverance was admirable.
Zhao Xuan was the Prince of Great Song who was on the run. The three dynasties were chasing after him and not giving him a way out. Sooner or later, he would rise up and organize his forces to fight for the world.
The Jiangnan Seven Devils were chivalrous and righteous, they valued righteousness over profit, they were the right candidates for him.
To conquer the world, one needed experts with unparalleled martial arts, but even more so, one needed loyal generals.
Loyalty was more important than anything else.
At this moment, the atmosphere at the table was lively, and everyone had smiles on their faces.
Zhao Xuan smiled and said," I heard that all of you have an appointment with the Seven Sons of Quanzhen to meet in White Emperor City. I wonder what it is about. Can you tell me? Perhaps I can help you."”
After hearing Zhao Xuan's words, Ke Zhenge and the others 'expressions turned grave.
"Since Young Master Zhao has asked, then I won't hide anything."”"Three days ago, we heard that Qiu Qianren wanted to give Wu Mu's will to Wanyan Honglie. Therefore, we rushed to White Emperor City to stop this matter. I didn't expect…"
Zhu Cong continued,"We didn't expect to meet Taoist Qiu on the way. After hearing about this, Taoist Qiu was furious at Qiu Qianren's betrayal of the country for glory. Considering Qiu Qianren's martial arts, Taoist Qiu decided to return to Mount Zhongnan. He asked us to wait for him in White Emperor City. We will deal with that old thief Qiu Qianren when the Seven Disciples of Quanzhen are all here.”
Nan Xiren said," Wu Mu's will records General Yue's art of war. It is the national treasure of our Great Song. If the enemy gets it, the Great Song will be in danger."”
" Qiu Qianren is betraying his country for glory," Ke Zhenge said indignantly." Even if the Seven Monsters of Jiangnan have to fight to the death, we must stop him."”
"Big brother is right." Han Xiaoying said resolutely,"Since ancient times, who has not died?"”
"Ying, you're right."
Zhao Xuan nodded slightly.
After listening to their words, he completely understood the ins and outs of the whole matter.
