After killing the heir of King Dingnan, Yi An did not plan to stay in Hengyang any longer. He brought Huang Rong, Jiang Yuyan, and the others to bid farewell to Liu Zhengfeng and Linghu Chong.
When Liu Zhengfeng found out that the prince had died in his residence, he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave, and his face was as pale as paper.
He had bought a small official position with great difficulty. He thought that he could pull in the relationship of the prince and have a stable life from then on.
In the end, he did not expect that the heir of King Dingnan would be so overbearing, threatening Yi An to surrender. Now that he was killed here, he could not escape the blame.
However, this had nothing to do with Yi An.
Liu Zhengfeng was also responsible for today's matter. If it wasn't for his recommendation, things wouldn't have developed to this extent.
Yi An not finding trouble with him was already considered worthy of the hospitality he had shown over the past few days.
As for how he would deal with himself in the future, that was Liu Zhengfeng's own business.
Linghu Chong clapped his hands in joy after hearing the whole story.
Actually, before meeting Yi An, this Prince Dingnan's son had also summoned him.
However, Linghu Chong was the heir of the Huashan Sect after all. Now that Huashan Sect had risen in the Five Peaks, the heir of King Dingnan did not dare to go too far, so the matter was left unsettled.
The son of Prince Dingnan must have felt that Mingjian Manor was already in decline and had no backing, which was why he was so unbridled.
However, he did not expect Yi An to be so ruthless and decisive, to the point that he even lost his life.
"Since Brother Yi is determined to be in the martial world, there is no need to be too concerned about the matters in the royal court. You didn't do anything wrong this time, and you have a clear conscience. If the imperial court pursues this matter in the future, the Huashan Sect and I will definitely help you!”
Before he left, Linghu Chong expressed his stance on behalf of the Huashan Sect.
Putting aside whether Yi An needed their help or not, Yi An was very satisfied with their attitude.
"With your words, our acquaintance is not in vain. Brother Linghu, the Jianghu is far away. If we meet again, we can have a sword competition and drink! Take care!"
"Brother Yi, have a good journey. I wish you a victory in the exquisite chess game in advance and that you will get what you want!”
The two of them cupped their hands and said goodbye.
Chen Wu drove the carriage and the group slowly left Hengyang, heading straight for Leigu Mountain.
"Brother Yi, I came too late in the battle just now. Are you hurt?"
In the carriage, Huang Rong asked worriedly.
She did not care about the death of the heir of King Dingnan. She only cared if Yi An was injured or not.
When Yi An heard this, he smiled and said,"Don't worry. The few experts beside him aren't very strong. They're not qualified to hurt me."”
"It's good that you're fine."
Huang Rong heaved a sigh of relief and then reminded him,"After all, that prince of Prince Ding Nan has a noble status. He's different from Wanyan Kang who was killed by you before. The imperial court will definitely send people to investigate. In addition, I heard that this Prince Dingnan's son has a personal relationship with Ye Gucheng of the Southern Sea's White Cloud City. I'm afraid he'll step in…"
"Ye Gucheng?"
Yi An didn't think of this, but it didn't matter.
Prince Dingnan's son was too arrogant and had provoked him. Of course, he would not swallow his anger. So what if Ye Gucheng would help him?
After the exquisite chess game was over, his strength would once again advance by leaps and bounds.
What would Ye Gucheng have to fear when he stepped into the peerless realm?
The matter of Prince Dingnan's heir also reminded Yi An.
He had originally made a name for himself in order to revive Mingjian Peak. However, a tall tree attracts the wind. After becoming famous, it might also attract some trouble. This was something that could not be avoided.
However, he still had to do what he had to do.
The martial world was like this. Once one stepped into it, there would always be all kinds of changes. It was impossible for it to be calm.
What he had to do was to constantly become stronger and stronger, making those who originally had covetous intentions fear him.
As long as he had absolute strength, no matter what kind of trouble came knocking on his door, it would just be sending his head to the door.
While he was thinking, the carriage continued to head north.
After leaving Hengyang, Yi An didn't encounter anything else. The journey was extremely peaceful.
He brought Huang Rong and Jiang Yuyan with him, walking and stopping.
Henan had been the hinterland of the Central Plains since ancient times, with beautiful scenery and outstanding people.
Everyone enjoyed the scenery along the way as they headed towards Leigu Mountain.
It was neither fast nor slow.
Around the end of August, they finally arrived at Leigu Mountain.
During this period of time, Yi An did not relax his cultivation. He cultivated his zhenqi and stabilized his realm. At the same time, he did not forget to give Huang Rong pointers. The little girl had already broken through to the late stage of the Mortal Gate. She was just a little bit away from becoming a Connate Cultivator and being reborn.
In addition, Yi An also began to teach Jiang Yuyan how to read and write, and to practice some basic martial arts.
In the future, she would be the spokesperson for Yi An to take charge of the overall situation and handle Mingjian Manor's affairs. Of course, she needed to be skilled in both literature and martial arts.
Jiang Yuyan came from a poor family since she was young. She had never studied or learned martial arts, but she was really talented. In this aspect, even Huang Rong could not compare to her. As long as Yi An taught her something, she could quickly master it.
Now that she had achieved something, she was no longer that ignorant mountain girl.
"Young master, the Leigu Mountain is in front of us. However, there are still a few days before the exquisite chess game opens, so we can't go up the mountain yet. The people from Carefree Sect had already set up a garden at the foot of the mountain to receive the martial artists who came to attend the meeting.?”
Fifth Chen walked up and reported.
Hearing this, Yi An nodded and handed the jade slip to him.
Chen Wu took the jade slip and verified the identity of the Free And Unfettered Sect disciples. Soon, they were assigned to an independent courtyard and immediately drove the carriage to rest.
"This Carefree Sect has always been mysterious and has very few disciples. After experiencing Ding Chunqiu's betrayal, Su Xing He had expelled all his disciples from the sect. Now, the only ones left were some insignificant little disciples. It seemed desolate, but no one in the martial world dared to underestimate it. " Brother Yi, look. Many of the martial artists who come and go are extraordinary, but none of them are inferior. They are all doing things according to the rules of Carefree Sect. It's really strange!"”
Huang Rong pointed at the crowd outside the window and said.
When Yi An heard this, he smiled and said,""It's not strange. Not only was the Carefree Sect's martial arts exquisite, but they were also proficient in zither, chess, calligraphy, painting, medical divination, and other strange techniques. Although there were only a few disciples of the Carefree Sect here, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there were all kinds of mysterious mechanisms and hidden arrays. If they did not listen to him and barged in recklessly, they would die a miserable death!”
"A trap array?"
Huang Rong was a little surprised.
She was born on the Peach Blossom Island. There were all kinds of mechanisms and arrays on the Peach Blossom Island, especially the Peach Blossom Array. Even Zhou Botong was trapped in it, so her attainments in arrays were not low.
However, he didn't pay attention to it. After hearing Yi An's reminder, he looked up. Indeed, starting from the garden at the foot of the mountain, all the way to Leigu Mountain, there were mysteries everywhere.
"Amazing. From the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are actually countless array formations and mechanisms. This Carefree Sect was indeed unfathomable.”
"Of course. Ever since the chaos of the Carefree Sect, Ding Chunqiu had been coveting the sect's divine arts. He had tried to infiltrate the sect many times, and there were many people in Jianghu who coveted the Carefree Martial Arts. With the current manpower of the Carefree Sect, if there was no array protection, it would have been snatched away by others long ago. Why would there be a need to hold this precious chess game?”
Yi An smiled.
As they were talking, they suddenly heard a commotion in front of them.
Looking from afar, a luxurious carriage was approaching.
The carriage was decorated with gold and jade, and the four horses were in a row.
Even the coachman who drove the carriage was an expert dressed in brocade. There were several maids beside the carriage, and there were experts accompanying them. The four generals and guards were really extraordinary.
In the carriage.
A young man in his thirties sat on the throne, smiling as he fanned himself. He looked noble and graceful.
Someone in the crowd exclaimed," It's Master Murong from the Murong family. I didn't expect him to come too!"”
