Zhai Xing and Jiang He
Zhai Xing and Jiang He
The higher-ups did not say anything else. They gradually hid in the darkness and then slowly disappeared.
Although they did not say a word, Gu Xinghe could still feel their regret.
Regret losing Yan Ruoxue.
...
On the other end.
Qin Yu was speeding away according to the address given by the Pavilion Master.
Along the way, he restrained his breath and was extremely careful. He was afraid that he would be discovered.
Jiang He was living in seclusion in an uninhabited area. At this moment, he was feeling the changes in the world and trying to enter the Martial Saint realm again.
In a forest, there was an unremarkable civilian house.
A small courtyard was enclosed here. Chickens, ducks, and geese were kept in the courtyard. It looked no different from an ordinary village old man's house.
Jiang He was sitting in the house. He closed his eyes slightly and felt this not-so-strong internal qi.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes.
He glanced to one side from the corner of his eyes and said indifferently, "Since you're here, come out."
Before he finished his words, he saw Zhai Xing walk out of the dark.
Seeing Zhai Xing who suddenly appeared, Jiang He did not look very surprised.
"So it's Master Zhai Xing," Jiang He's tone was calm, and his eyes opened slightly.
Zhai Xing walked straight to Jiang He's side and sat down.
"Master Zhai Xing, why did you suddenly visit?"Jiang He asked casually.
Zhai Xing said quietly, "You should know very well why I came."
Jiang He slightly snorted. He slightly closed his eyes and said, "How would I know why you're looking for me?"
Zhai Xing was silent for a moment. Then, he slowly sighed and said, "Jiang He, you owe me a favor back then. You should remember this favor."
"Yes, I will never forget the favor I owe me," Jiang He said lightly.
"But you also know that there is absolutely no possibility of achieving a detente between me and the Jingdu Martial Arts Association."
Zhai Xing's expression darkened, and he said coldly, "Back then if I had not valued your superhuman talent, you would have died long ago."
"Yes," Jiang He did not deny it.
"But it was also because of your actions that I was unable to step into the Martial Saint realm."
If others were to hear these words, they would definitely be shocked!
The two of them were not from the same era, but they had such a deep relationship!
"That was an order from the association. I can not disobey it," Zhai Xing said.
"So the relationship between you and I is broken," Jiang He said in a low voice.
Zhai Xing sighed, "In my eyes, you are a genius. I can't bear to kill you. I..."
"Master Zhai Xing, if you have something to say, just say it," Jiang He interrupted Zhai Xing.
Zhai Xing said in a deep voice, "I am under Gu Xinghe's order to invite you to join the Jingdu Martial Arts Association.
"As you're aware, the Jingdu Martial Arts Association is currently recruiting talents and is interested in developing powerful people in the world.
"If you are willing to join, with your talent, it won't be long before you can step into the Martial Saint realm."
Jiang He sneered, "Master Zhai Xing, do you think I would agree?"
Zhai Xing frowned and said, "Jiang He, the Jingdu Martial Arts Association never killed you."
Jiang He sneered, "Yes, but it also forced me to cower here and not appear for many years."
"If it weren't for Qin Yu's appearance, I might never have appeared in public."
Zhai Xing said in a low voice, "Are you really not joining the Jingdu Martial Arts Association?"
"You should have the answer in your heart. You don't have to ask me." Jiang He closed his eyes.
Zhai Xing's expression instantly turned cold.
He suddenly stood up and said coldly, "The current environment has changed. You will step into the Martial Saint realm sooner or later."
"Since you are unwilling to join the Jingdu Martial Arts Association, then you are a potential enemy of the Jingdu Martial Arts Association."
"So... You must die!"
Jiang He's expression was extremely calm and indifferent. He closed his eyes slightly and said, "Then make your move. In front of you, I have no power to defend."
Zhai Xing's body was full of murderous intent. This murderous intent swept through the entire mountain forest.
A gentle breeze blew through the mountain forest, and that solemn aura caused the entire ground to buzz.
Zhai Xing slowly raised his palm. Rays of faint light gathered in his palm.
Facing Zhai Xing, Jiang He could not defend.
"Jiang He, this would be the last time I let you off."
A moment later, Zhai Xing lowered his hand.
"If you don't want to die, then don't go against the Jingdu Martial Arts Association. Otherwise, I will definitely kill you."
After saying this, Zhai Xing turned around and left.
Jiang He looked at Zhai Xing's back as he was leaving. A trace of worry flashed across his face.
...
At this moment, Qin Yu was still speeding toward this place.
The Divine Alchemist Pavilion was very far from here, and the current Qin Yu did not dare to take any means of transportation. He could only come over step by step.
The journey was very long. Even with Qin Yu's ability, it would still take him several days.
About three days later, Qin Yu arrived at a riverside.
If he wanted to go to his destination, he had to cross this river.
Standing on the riverside, Qin Yu couldn't help but look a little worried.
"It seems that I have to take a boat there," Qin Yu murmured in a low voice.
There were many boatmen here, and there were also many tourists.
Qin Yu released his divine sense and covered the entire riverbank.
"Eh?" Qin Yu frowned.
There were actually several people at the peak of the Martial Marquis realm on the riverbank!
"Strange," Qin Yu's expression didn't look good.
Even if the Martial Saint had appeared, Martial Marquis was still rare in existence.
How could there be so many Martial Marquises by such a small river?
"Could it be that I have been discovered?" Qin Yu's expression did not look good.
He tried his best to restrain his internal qi and found a relatively safe place to sit down.
Fortunately, Qin Yu had prepared a hat long ago. He put the hat on his head and lowered the brim of the hat.
"Oh no!"
At this moment, Qin Yu felt an extremely powerful internal qi!
This internal qi was of the Martial Saint realm!
Qin Yu's expression became even more unsightly. He hurriedly lowered the brim of his hat and carefully surveyed his surroundings.
Soon, Zhai Xing's figure appeared on the shore.
"It's him." Qin Yu's heart started to beat violently!
With Zhai Xing's ability, it was not difficult for him to discover Qin Yu, even if Qin Yu had restrained his internal qi!
At this moment, Zhai Xing walked to the shore, and several Martial Marquises from the surrounding arrived in succession.
"Master Zhai Xing." Several Martial Marquises bowed one after another.
Zhai Xing said coldly, "Jiang He has the Nine Secrets, and he escaped."
The Martial Marquises looked at each other and frowned. "Even you couldn't catch him?"
Zhai Xing said in a deep voice, "The Nine Secrets are the secret arts of Taoism. In the current era, only Jiang He has learned it. Its profoundness is far beyond imagination."
Then, Zhai Xing waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
The Martial Marquises did not say anything else. They followed behind Zhai Xing and planned to leave.
Qin Yu, who was hiding in the dark, could not help but sigh in relief.
"Wait."
At this moment, Zhai Xing, who had taken a few steps, suddenly stopped.
Everyone stopped and looked at Zhai Xing in puzzlement.
Zhai Xing, on the other hand, was looking in a specific direction.
It was the direction where Qin Yu was.
