God Thief and Saint Thief might sound like a high-class name that could scare ordinary people, but to a true martial arts expert, they were actually just two cat burglars.
In the end, it was something that could not be put on the table and belonged to the lower nine sects.
Lin Xuan originally did not want to fight with them, but Bai Zhantang came to him himself, so he might as well borrow his jade card to play.
He took out two silver ingots from his purse and put them down as compensation for the pleasure boat. Just as he was about to leave, the constables of Six Fan School surrounded him.
"What happened just now?"
The leader of the constables boarded the ship. He was wearing an official robe and had a steel saber at his waist. His eyes were bright, and it was obvious that he had cultivation.
This person's gaze landed on Lin Xuan and asked in a low voice.
"Reporting to Constable Liu."
Just as he was about to speak, the woman playing the zither beat him to it. Clearly, she was familiar with this constable.
She bowed gracefully, her red lips parted slightly, and she said gently,"This young master rented our Drunken Spring Brothel's pleasure boat to enjoy the scenery. Unexpectedly, those two strong men barged into the boat and injured the porter. If it wasn't for young master's help, even my maidservant would have been killed.”
Her expression was sincere, and the two maidservants were also witnesses. Constable Liu said,"In that case, please follow me back to the yamen and make a statement so that the painter can draw the faces of those two strong people and issue a warrant.”
Lin Xuan frowned slightly with an unhappy expression. Although he did not want to become enemies with the Six Fan School, he was not afraid.
"I'm not free."
"I still have to hurry on tomorrow morning," he said.”
"Please cooperate, Young Master."
Constable Liu waved his hand, and the constables behind him boarded the ship and surrounded him. The woman playing the zither gave him a look.
"Constable Liu, this young master is a guest of my Drunken Spring Brothel, so there's no need to bring him to the yamen. As for his appearance, you can ask my maidservant to make a trip there."”
"Miss Cuiyu, this is official business." Constable Liu shook his head.”
"Constable Liu, if you don't listen to this lady, I wonder if you can give me some face.”
A pleasure boat approached. On the railing stood a woman in a red dress. She was barefoot and her long hair fell over her shoulders.
It was Dongfang Bai from the capital.
"Since Miss Dongfang has spoken, I will give you face.”
Constable Liu didn't dare to offend Dongfang Bai, who had been invited by the magistrate.
If he said that, his title as a constable would be taken off in an instant.
"Let's go."
Then, he led the constables out of the pleasure boat and left.
"Miss Cui Yu, thank you."
Lin Xuan cupped his fists.
"Young Master is elegant and literary, this little girl is fascinated. If there is fate in the future, you can come to the Drunken Spring Restaurant to meet.”
The woman who was playing the zither brought two maidservants onto the boat of the Drunken Spring Brothel.
"Young master, can you come aboard for a chat?”
On the pleasure boat, Dongfang Bai leaned against the railing and smiled.
"Of course."
With a leap, he landed on the deck of the pleasure boat. Two girls in long dresses walked out of the cabin, lifted the curtain, and invited him in.
Dongfang Bai followed closely behind. The cabin was spacious and had an antique feel to it. There was a stove rising up, and there was wine, food, tea, pastries, and snacks.
Sitting cross-legged on the cushion, the young girl poured some tea.
"Young Master's martial arts are impressive.”
Dongfang Bai sized up Lin Xuan with her beautiful eyes and asked softly.
"No sect, no sect."
Lin Xuan shook his head.
"Self-taught?"
Dongfang Bai was slightly surprised.
He said,"The Tao is natural, and the teacher is heaven and earth."”
"Interesting, interesting."
Her willow-like eyebrows curved into a pair of crescent moons. She really had the appearance of a city and a country. She was charming and did not lose her manners, but she also had a little playfulness.
"I heard that Young Master is going on a long journey tomorrow morning. Where are you going?”
she said.
"I haven't thought about it yet."
Lin Xuan picked up his teacup and drank it in one gulp. He said casually,"Wherever I go, I will go."
"Ya 'er, serve the wine for Young Master."
Dongfang Bai clapped his hands.
"My family's young miss has always admired young master's straightforward character.”
The girl said as she poured the wine.
He only left the pleasure boat late at night. He crossed the void and landed on the lakeside, watching the pleasure boat disappear into the night.
"I can't see through it."
Lin Xuan turned around and walked towards the inn.
This woman named Dongfang Bai seemed to be shrouded in a layer of fog. He had tried several times but to no avail.
It was best not to provoke such a woman.
Putting away his thoughts, he returned to his room, took a bath, changed his clothes, and began to meditate and refine Qi.
The next day, at dawn
After paying the rent, he rode on his horse and carried his rations. Two days later, he left Guangyang Prefecture and entered Yuntian Prefecture.
While practicing martial arts, he browsed through the local customs. When he encountered bandits, he would use them to practice his swordsmanship.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye. The snow drifted and the mountains were white. It was silent.
Hanzhong
black cloud stronghold
The largest bandit lair within a radius of several hundred miles had been robbing and killing people for many years. The government had organized several encirclement and suppression, but in the end, they all ended in failure.
The sky was slightly bright, the cold wind was howling, and the snowflakes were fluttering.
In the Black Cloud Stronghold, corpses were lying on the ground in a mess. Each of them had only one fatal wound.
Hundreds of bandits were all killed. There were two Xiantian Realm warriors among them who did not escape.
A young man in a thin robe walked out of the village. He carried a wooden box and a heavy bag filled with gold and silver bills and jade jewelry.
"This trip was not in vain."
Lin Xuan grinned.
The things they plundered from Black Wind Mountain amounted to about two thousand taels of silver.
He put on his bamboo hat and left on the mountain path. Thick smoke rose from Black Wind Mountain behind him. A moment later, it was lit up in flames.
In the span of two months, he had traveled through Guanzhong, Hanzhong, three roads, seven prefectures, and eighteen counties, destroying twenty to thirty bandit nests.
There were at least 500 bandits who had died under his sword, and his killing intent was as thick as that of a demon.
Along with his internal strength breaking through to the mid-stage of the Xiantian realm, his Sword, Sword, Fist, Palm, Finger, Claw, Kick, and Arresting Qing Gong had all reached the maximum level of proficiency.
At the same time, he also earned himself the reputation of being proficient in both sword and sword, which spread throughout the entire Guanzhong area.
He had become a rising star in the righteous path of the pugilistic world.
Lin Xuan could not be bothered to explain this.
At the same time, his travels over the past few days had given him a general understanding of this world.
Great Ming, Great Tang, and Great Wei were the three pillars of power, and there were many experts in the martial world.
It was much vaster than the world of the Seven Hero Town in his memory.
Although an Upper Sky expert could be considered a master of a region, it was far from being a top expert.
Being in such a world where martial arts flourished, he only felt excitement and excitement.
The more powerhouses there were, the wider the path of martial arts.
