Nangong Xiaoxiang was younger than him, and Big Beard was far from this realm when he was at this age.
By the time the rooster crowed, the outcome had been decided. Nangong Xiaoxiang, who had become serious, did not give the eight of them any chance. Moreover, it had left an indelible mark of shame on them.
"According to the agreement, you can leave now.”Although the bearded man was angry, he was not prepared to flare up.
"Aren't you going to avenge them?”Nangong Xiaoxiang asked.
"I really want to avenge them. But you kept your promise and didn't take your life. You didn't hurt your bones, so I have no reason to take revenge!”Big Beardy gritted his teeth and bandaged them up.
"I didn't want to be so harsh, but you're too arrogant!”Although Nangong Xiaoxiang felt a little apologetic, she had already done it, so there was nothing to regret.
"Little brother, if you dare to stay in the Liushang Kingdom for three months, I'll pay you back double for today's revenge!”Big Beardy's voice was stern.
Nangong Xiaoxiang took his words to heart. There had to be a decision, but not now. If he wanted to stay for three months, he would have to find a job in Liushang Nation first.
Hence, she went to look for the waiter she had agreed on earlier.
The waiter was surprised to see the knife marks on Nangong Xiaoxiang's clothes.""You've already used a knife, yet you can still walk out with your beard and tail intact? Which group of people did you encounter?”
"It's the Iron Flower Guild, the City God Temple branch.”
When the waiter heard this, he was so scared that he almost fell to the ground. "You ran into the most powerful team! The fact that you survived shows that you are not a mortal! Have you ever done foot massage before?”
"Hahaha, do you think I survived because of them?”Nangong Xiaoxiang opened a cloth bag and eight bloody ears jumped out.
" This is…" The waiter's expression was filled with shock and fear.
"The left ear of the eight heroes of the City God Temple can be considered as proof of my victory.”
"Didn't that bearded boss do anything to you?”
"He wanted to, but he seemed to be tied up by something important and couldn't get away. If he really wanted to fight me, he probably wouldn't be able to escape unscathed.”Nangong Xiaoxiang said. "Oh right, you said that you have a good way to introduce me to him. I'm ready now.”
The waiter's expression suddenly became hesitant.
"Hey, didn't you say you wouldn't go back on your word? I've gained some benefits, so I naturally won't forget you.”
"Young hero, it's not about that. I'm afraid that if I introduce you, you won't be able to return.”
"What, the place you introduced is a dragon's pool and a tiger's den?”
"It's not a dragon's pool or a tiger's den, but there are heroes who can stand up to heaven and earth. "Even the thatched cottage is better than the palace. That place is the hope of our Liushang Kingdom…" The waiter said.
"Then all the more you have to bring me there. My life's dream is to see the heroes of the world.”
"Things are not as simple as you think. What did Big Beard say to you before he left?”The waiter suddenly asked.
"He told me to wait for him for three months. That's probably what he meant.”
"Then are you willing to wait? If you want to leave now, this little brother is willing to give you some money along the way.”
How much could a waiter earn? He had actually escaped with a large ingot of silver. The people here were all strange. However, Nangong Xiaoxiang instinctively felt that the bearded man had something to do with the place the waiter mentioned.
He can't be asking me to vote for that bearded man, right? This was really interesting! She had just rejected him and cut off eight of his ears.
"I'm not someone who runs away in fear. I've already promised him that I'll wait. However, the leader of the place you mentioned can't be him, right?”Nangong Xiaoxiang still had to ask.
"Of course not. Our patriarch is someone else. Since you've decided, I'll take you there. As for the outcome, whether you can come back alive or not, it's all up to your own luck.”
Nangong had heard this countless times. Who was the owner of that place?
The waiter immediately asked the shopkeeper for leave. The shopkeeper actually agreed readily and did not dare to stop him at all.
Thus, the waiter brought Nangong Xiaoxiang along a small path into the deep mountains. They made many turns along the way, giving up the nearest for the faraway.
"If you're afraid that I'll expose you to the end, you might as well cover my eyes and save me the trouble of sharpening the soles of my shoes.”Nangong Xiaoxiang said.
"Young hero, don't worry. We're almost there.”
Indeed, it seemed like they were almost there. There was only one straight road left. However, there were still hidden sentries along the way, making it very mysterious.
This made Nangong Xiaoxiang look forward to the expert behind the scenes. He had thought that it would be a good experience even if he went up the mountain to be a bandit. Moreover, many Xuan Qi experts had fallen into the weeds. Perhaps he might even encounter a few legends.
From the looks of it now, such a tight formation did not seem like an ordinary mountain bandit. What they were planning was probably not a simple robbery.
They had finally arrived. The waiter was right, it was indeed a thatched cottage. Moreover, it was a very large thatched cottage, grand and simple at the same time. Its owner must have huge ambitions and was very good at hiding them.
"Please wait here for a moment. I'll go and inform him.”the waiter said.
When Nangong Xiaoxiang stayed outside the thatched cottage, two people came up to search her. Before his hand reached her, they were all broken.
"I'm not someone you two can casually touch!”Of course, Nangong Xiaoxiang wouldn't let them search her.
At this moment, a person came out of the thatched cottage. Although he was wearing ordinary clothes, it could not hide the noble temperament he was born with.
Nangong Xiaoxiang thought he looked familiar.
"Young hero Nangong?" The man recognized her immediately. I didn't expect to see you here!"
"You are…"
"Feng Nanjin, the Feng Nanjin from the Alchemy Convention!”
Nangong Xiaoxiang remembered that there was indeed such a person. He was the most polite person at the Alchemy Convention. They could be considered to have met once.
Feng Nanjin was overjoyed and quickly invited Nangong Xiaoxiang into the cottage.
Inside the thatched cottage, the people sitting in the hall were the artists who had been performing on the streets during the day. And that bearded man seemed to be of a very low status in this group of people, sitting in the most conspicuous position. There were also the eight people who were missing an ear. Seeing Nangong Xiaoxiang come in, he was shocked at first, then he glared at her.
Feng Nanjin only knew that Nangong Xiaoxiang's cultivation was extremely high, so she introduced her to everyone.""Everyone, this is the young man I met at the Alchemy Convention, Young Hero Nangong!”
"The Alchemy Convention is held within the Tianchu Kingdom. Young hero, your cultivation is so high, and you're also a young talent with the surname Nangong. I wonder what relationship it has with the famous Nangong family of Tianchu Country?”Big Beardy asked Nangong Xiaoxiang deliberately. However, he did not point out their previous conflict.
"I was indeed once a member of the Nangong family, but I can't tell you my exact name. Although I am the Nangong Clan's clan, I have already rebelled against the Nangong Clan. Now that I've traveled around, I don't have much to do with them.”Nangong Xiaoxiang said.
"Young Master, do you want to recruit him?”Big Beard asked Feng Nanjin.
"That's right. If you join us, wouldn't our success be even greater!”
"However, the Nangong Nobles have a very important position in Tianchu. It's not suitable for them to get involved in this matter.”Big Beardy said. The others also expressed their agreement.
"Hey, what do you mean by joining us? I haven't agreed to it yet. By the way, what exactly do you do? I'm not interested in stealing. I'll leave immediately.”Nangong Xiaoxiang said to Feng Nanjin.
"Impudent! How could we, the dignified Crown Prince of Liushang Kingdom, do such a thing!”
"Crown Prince? Don't try to fool me. How could the Crown Prince live in such a place? What a joke. Play the role of the prince in the family wine." Nangong Xiaoxiang smiled.
"I'm ashamed to say this, but I've already bid you farewell at the Alchemy Convention. When he returned, he discovered that his second brother had already killed the emperor and seized the throne. He secretly did not announce the funeral, killed the emperor and seized the throne. Everyone in Liushang knew about it and was indignant! I am the heir to the throne. If I want to reason with him, I will be assassinated by his henchmen on the way. Fortunately, the late emperor was saved by his former subordinates, so we had no choice but to temporarily stay in this grass hut. During the day, he would disguise himself as a Jianghu artist and scout around. He's planning something big." Feng Nanjin said.
No wonder the Liushang Kingdom did not announce such a big matter like the change of dynasty to the world.
"You're also a fool. What's there to argue about? Of course, we have to snatch it!" Nangong Xiaoxiang laughed at him.
"Yeah, Beard Seven said the same thing about me. I'm not doing this for the throne, I'm only doing this for the people of Liushang Country.”Feng Nanjin said.
This big-bearded man was none other than the famous border garrison general of the Liushang Kingdom. Originally, they had the strength to resist, but for the sake of the Crown Prince's safety, they did not have the strength to do so and were robbed of their military power.
Then everyone present must be the former emperor's former subordinates. Among them, there was no lack of old officials who supported the crown prince.
"What I find strange is that the foundation is leaning towards your side. How could he let the Second Prince succeed?”It was not strange that Nangong Xiaoxiang would ask this. It was not easy to organize a rebellion. Military power was one thing, but the direction of power in the court was even more important.
If the previous cabinet elders were all on the Crown Prince's side, the Second Prince would be able to seize the throne. It could only be said that these people were too useless.
"The current fake country lord, Situ Zheng, has formed a clique for many years and has power over the government! He was also a powerful cultivator of the Four Symbols Fourth Order. No one could get close to him. It seems that my second brother was also bewitched by him. This rebellion must have been planned by Situ Zheng alone!”
"Young Master, you must not have any good intentions. Now that it was ten percent, that Second Young Master must die!”others advised the wind to blow the southern hibiscus.
The struggle for fame and fortune in the royal family must be so cruel, so Nangong Xiaoxiang didn't want to marry Beiming Junye. As for Feng Nanjin's matter, Nangong Xiaoxiang did not want to get involved. Although there were many mystic qi xiuzhe who participated in government affairs, there were very few who wanted to take over a country as outsiders.
That Situ Zheng, in terms of ambition alone, was not to be trifled with.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:122120183:43AM
