Chapter 327: The way of the sword, it is better to break than to bend!
King Yu understood that once the Queen Mother succeeded, he, as the Queen Mother's biological son, might be able to save his life, but other clans would inevitably attract the Queen Mother's thunderous wrath, and countless clans would inevitably be purged. Knowing how many people will die will stop.
On one side is the love between mother and child, and on the other side is the friendship between the clan.
For King Yu at this moment, he does not want to give up on either side easily.
But the current situation is difficult to restore. The two sides have become a fire and water, and it is difficult to restore to the previous situation.
His position means that he must make a decision quickly and cannot continue to hesitate.
Wannian County is located northwest of Kyoto. According to legend, it was originally named after the Wannian Mausoleum built by Taizu Taizu of the Early Han Dynasty to bury his father. Later, in the Later Han Dynasty, a Princess Wannian County also used this as a title. Yap.
Pei Xuanjing came here alone, boarded an inn, sat on the second floor, leaned on the railing and looked at a manor in the distance.
According to the information given by Ye Daoyuan, the people of the Demon Cult settled in the manor in the distance.
A smile appeared at the corner of Pei Xuanjing's mouth. No wonder people said: A small hermit hides in the wild, a big hermit hides in the city.
If it weren't for the exact information given by Ye Daoyuan, no one in the world would have thought that this group of demon sect members would settle in the city with such arrogance.
"It seems that he is quite calm!" Pei Xuanjing said to himself.
He knew that even if he deliberately concealed his traces on the way here, due to the power of the Demon Cult, the other party had already discovered his whereabouts when he entered this inn or even Wannian County.
Of course, this also means that Pei Xuanjing deliberately wanted to alert the enemy.
I just didn’t expect that even though he had been sitting here for a long time, no one from the Demon Cult showed up. This made him a little bit interested. He felt that the person in charge of this Demon Cult stronghold was somewhat capable, at least. Able to keep calm.
"Haha, maybe I'm overestimating it." Pei Xuanjing suddenly laughed at himself.
He originally looked at the other party because of the Demon Cult's reaction, but he didn't expect that in the blink of an eye, someone walked out of the manor and rushed towards Pei Xuanjing's location.
"Holy Sect Pang Yan has seen the Sword Master. I wonder what advice the Sword Master can give when he comes here." A thin middle-aged man walked up to the second floor of the inn and drove away the irrelevant people on the second floor. , said to Pei Xuanjing.
Pei Xuanjing's face was dull, he just looked at the other person calmly, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "Pang Yan? I know you, you seem to be good at swordsmanship."
Pang Yan, the demon sect has a strong heavenly position. He is proficient in swordsmanship, and has almost reached the ultimate level of swordsmanship in one hand. He can be said to be one of the famous swordsmen in the world.
Pang Yan, who was originally a little uncomfortable under Pei Xuanjing's gaze, had a gloomy look in his eyes after hearing Pei Xuanjing's words.
You must know that although he was born in the Demon Cult, his swordsmanship is outstanding among the swordsmen in the world, which is something he is extremely proud of.
But in Pei Xuanjing's evaluation, it was only good. How could he be convinced?
He just smiled and said: "It is an honor for Pang to be praised by the Sword Master."
It is said that there is no first in literature and no second in martial arts.
Among the cultivators in this world, especially those who have entered the heavenly position, who is not a person with outstanding talent, and who is willing to be inferior to others.
So even though Pei Xuanjing is respected as the Sword Saint by many strong men in the world, it does not mean that no one is unconvinced, and Pang Yan in front of him happens to be one of them.
Of course, although he was confident in his swordsmanship, he also knew that his strength was definitely no match for the opponent. People from the Demon Cult knew best how to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Especially at this juncture, he didn't want to provoke Pei Xuanjing, so he didn't give in. "Hey!" Pei Xuanjing sighed softly.
He looked at Pang Yan and said: "I originally thought you were a pure swordsman, but now it seems you are really not."
There were many swordsmen among the opponents Pei Xuanjing had encountered, but the swordsman who left a deep impression on him was undoubtedly the Seven Kills Sword Master.
Although he is in the Demon Sect, he is pure in swordsmanship and is the purest swordsman among the people Pei Xuanjing has ever seen. Even the old Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain is slightly inferior.
So when he meets a swordsman, he can't help but compare himself to the Seven Kills Sword Master.
The Pang Yan in front of him is also from the Demon Cult and is famous for his swordsmanship, so that’s why he said that just now. What he just said was actually just a test. If the other party dared to question his words and draw his sword, then Pei Xuanjing would naturally think highly of him and think that his evaluation of him was wrong.
But at the moment, Pang Yan did not refute his own evaluation, choosing to admit that Pei Xuanjing just felt that his evaluation of the other party might be too high.
As swordsmen, especially practitioners who focus on swordsmanship, they must have a fearless heart that dares to draw their swords against anyone. When anyone dares to question their swordsmanship, they should swing their swords decisively, no matter what. Who is.
A swordsman would rather take the straight path than seek it from the crooked path.
Only those who would rather break than bend and be tenacious are the true swordsmen.
Compared with the Seven Kills Sword Master that Pei Xuanjing met back then, the current Pang Yan was not comparable at all.
“How dare you insult me!”
Pang Yan's expression changed drastically.
He never expected that Pei Xuanjing would be like this, but these words undoubtedly hit the mark in his heart and hit the taboo in his heart that he should not mention.
Clang!
Pang Yan drew his sword brazenly, and violent killing intent erupted from his body.
At this moment, he could no longer care about what he had thought before. He understood that if he did not dare to take action today, then he would never have the courage to take action against Pei Min again.
"That's not bad!" Pei Xuanjing showed a faint smile.
Seeing the struggle in the other party's expression, the other party was still able to dare to draw his sword under such circumstances, and he would not be too disappointed.
Pei Xuanjing thought that he had said his words, but if he didn't draw his sword in anger, it seemed that the other party was just like that, and it was not worth taking a second look at him.
"Don't you want to ask me why I'm here?" Pei Xuanjing's voice sounded again, and he said lightly: "Some people don't like you people from the Demon Cult, and think that your existence will bring him trouble. It's a big trouble, so let me solve these troubles."
Pei Xuanjing's words were calm and calm, but they were like thunder in Pang Yan's ears.
"Sure enough, did they still find out?" There was a stern look in his eyes.
Although the Demon Sect's support for the Queen Mother was very secretive, it was actually only the people from the Brahma Sect who stood in front of them and attracted the Taoist Sect's attention, giving them the opportunity to hide in the dark and do some things. matter.
Unexpectedly, it was discovered after all.
