Zhongnan Mountain, Haoran Academy.

The mountain chief sat alone in the bamboo forest.

Sitting opposite him was Yuan Tiangang, the great master of the Zhou Dynasty.

The two are playing chess.

Long Qingquan and Li Chunfeng were waiting behind them.

This is the second game of chess played by the two.

When the two played the first game of chess, Chang An Shang was besieged by the grassland barbarians.

Now that Chang'an is out of danger, the two people's moods are naturally very different.

Both of them are masters of chess. Although they are not specialized in it, their abilities are not bad.

Long Qingquan and Li Chunfeng watched it with great interest. There were too many things that could be stolen from this game.

Not only the chess moves of the two big guys, but also their handling of various situations.

"Is there peace in the world?"

Shan Changluozi asked calmly.

"Secrets must not be revealed."

Yuan Tiangang responded calmly.

"What a secret that must not be leaked."

The mountain chief said leisurely: "I think the west is not very peaceful."

“When it’s not sunny in the west, it’s sunny in the east; when it’s not raining in the west, it’s raining in the east.”

Yuan Tiangang said sharply.

The mountain chief roared and said: "Master Yuan, what's the point of guarding your way of heaven all day long? It's better to say it out. It's so uncomfortable to hold it in your heart."

"What's so uncomfortable about this? If you don't even have a city, why would you be a national teacher?"

"That's all."

The mountain chief shook his head: "If you don't want to say it, I won't force you. But if you don't say it and I don't say it, the court won't be able to prepare for a rainy day and deal with it in advance."

"Everything is determined and destined."

Yuan Tiangang said in harmony: "Although we are practitioners, we cannot interfere arbitrarily with the way of heaven, otherwise we will be punished by the way of heaven."

The more things you know, the more things you fear.

The more things you fear, the more things you dare not do.

Yuan Tiangang is a cautious person, and he will not express opinions easily without sufficient assurance.

There is definitely no peace in the west, but if they tell the court at this time, it would be equivalent to revealing the truth of heaven. If God blames them, even a super master will not be able to bear it.

The mountain chief didn't take it seriously.

"What is the way of heaven? It is the collection of everyone's will. Since it is everyone, it contains yours and mine."

"In this case, we are actually just expressing our own thoughts and expressing our thoughts for Heaven. What are we wrong about?"

“…”

When it comes to talking heads, Yuan Tiangang is naturally no match for Shan Chang.

Shan Chang Na is a scholar, and what he is best at is talking nonsense.

Even if Yuan Tiangang was given another ten years to practice his internal skills, it would be beyond his reach.

"Stop talking about these, let's talk about my adopted son."

Yuan Tiangang didn't want to continue this topic, so he suddenly changed the topic: "That's your disciple."

"What did you say about him?"

The mountain chief looked very curious.

"I think he may break through to the fifth level recently."

"Fifth grade..."

The mountain chief thought for a moment and said, "It's not a big deal."

In the eyes of super-level practitioners, the fifth level is indeed not a very advanced realm, but for Zhao Xun himself, it can be regarded as a big breakthrough.

"The realm of the fifth grade is a critical point and a turning point in the ninth grade."

Yuan Tiangang paused and said: "If you can overcome this hurdle, it means that you will definitely achieve something next."

"Of course."

"But you also know that my apprentice's realm is far beyond the fifth level."

What a joke, none of the disciples he has received from his mountain chief are not above the fourth rank.

There are several people in the second grade, and some may even break through the threshold of the first grade.

With Zhao Xun's talent, the mountain chief felt that he had at least a first-class potential.

As for whether he can reach the realm of super-grade grandmaster, the mountain leader is actually not very sure.

Because super-grade and first-grade are different, it depends on the so-called chance.

If the opportunity comes, you can easily break through and enter.

If the opportunity does not come, you may not be able to pierce the window paper in your lifetime.

"Perhaps he can go to Hexi. It may be good for him to improve his cultivation."

Yuan Tiangang mentioned it as if nothing had happened.

But the mountain chief naturally understood what he meant.

"Tsk tsk tsk, that's good. Third brother, go and talk to your junior brother. If you have a chance, go to Hexi for a walk. Reading thousands of books is not as good as traveling thousands of miles."

Long Qingquan quickly clasped his fists: "I obey."

…

…

But it was said that after Long Qingquan left Zhongnanshan Haoran Academy, he went to Chang'an City alone.

Now that Chang'an City has lifted martial law, Long Qingquan has no pressure to go in and out.

Of course, even if Chang'an City closes its gates and imposes martial law, Long Qingquan will not encounter any resistance.

Because he could fly with his sword, he flew directly to Chang'an City.

Long Qingquan, who had already been to the Delinquency Office several times, arrived at the office gate with ease.

He arrived at the Yamen in a flash.

This is the magical power of top practitioners.

The talisman formation does not have many restrictions for them.

"Third Senior Brother, why are you here!"

Zhao Xun was extremely excited after seeing Long Qingquan.

To him, the third senior brother is his closest person in the academy.

Although the third senior brother has a somewhat arrogant personality, he is actually a very good person.

Zhao Xun realized this clearly during his daily interactions with his third senior brother.

On that trip to Jiangnan Road, if it hadn't been for the careful care of the third senior brother, Zhao Xun might have encountered something unexpected.

Of course, Zhao Xun also saved Long Qingquan once.

The two were evenly matched.

"Well, it was the mountain chief who asked me to come."

Long Qingquan spread his hands and spoke truthfully.

"Master Shan? Does he have any unique skills that he wants to teach me?"

Zhao Xun is looking forward to this.

Because as a practitioner, the most convenient way to improve your cultivation is to break through in battle.

In battle, a person's various abilities will be amplified.

So it will be easier to break through.

Zhao Xun was originally looking forward to breaking through in his cultivation level during the Battle of Chang'an.

But I didn't expect that the battle of Chang'an would end with loud thunder and light rain.

And it's basically a fight between gods and goddesses.
