"Second Young Master Li, why are you here?!"

Shan Wanjing looked at Li Shimin and said with some surprise. She had only paid attention to Meng Xiuyuan and Bian Fulai just now, but she did not see the impressive second son of the Li clan.

Li Shimin smiled when he heard this. He saw that the beautiful "Princess Dongming" had just ignored him, but he did not show the slightest trace of embarrassment or annoyance. He just took a look at the two people in front of him and bowed to Meng Xiuyuan very politely.

, said formally:

"I am the second son of Li Yuan, Shimin, who is staying in Taiyuan. I have met this brother.

I don’t know that there is a young master like you in the Dongming Sect, it’s really disrespectful..."

As soon as he said this, before Meng Xiuyuan could reply, Shan Wanjing hurriedly waved her hand and said:

"Master Li misunderstood, how could there be such an expert in our Dongming sect.

It was just that I was attacked by demons from the Yingui sect, and this young man just came to my aid..."

Having said this, Shan Wanjing turned to look at Meng Xiuyuan and said respectfully:

"Speaking of which, I still don't know the name of my benefactor.

Can you please give me some advice so that I can go back and report to my mother so that I can repay your great kindness in the future?"

Hearing this, Meng Xiuyuan smiled and shook his head, cupped his hands towards Li Shimin and Shan Wanjing, and said:

"You two don't need to be so polite, I just happened to be passing by and did it casually.

Meng Xiuyuan, a scholar from the Jianghu community, has met Mr. Li and Miss Shan."

Hearing Meng Xiuyuan's words, the two of them subconsciously looked at Meng Xiuyuan's face for a while through the firelight, and then they both felt astonished.

As the young ladies of the Dongming Sect and the Li clan, they were well-informed and had seen the portrait of Meng Xiuyuan who was wanted by the court. Looking back at it now, they saw that the portrait of Meng Xiuyuan was somewhat similar.

"It turns out that you are Mr. Meng, who defeated Yu Wenhuaji and recently became famous in the martial arts world.

No wonder he has such martial arts at such a young age and can kill such a master of magic as Bian Fuyi..."

After Li Shimin learned that Meng Xiuyuan was not from the Dongming sect, he became a little more enthusiastic about him. He first looked around while speaking, and then naturally said:

"I am really happy to have the opportunity to meet such a hero as Brother Meng today.

This is not a suitable place for chatting in the middle of the night...Brother Meng, Miss Shan, would you like to come and sit on my Li family's boat and give me a chance to entertain you?"

Although Shan Wanjing seemed a little impulsive when facing her side, she was actually a smart and smart young lady. She could tell at a glance that Li Shimin was more interested in inviting Meng Xiuyuan, so she shook her head slightly and said,

:

"Brother Shimin, you're welcome. It's just that my Dongming sect was attacked by gangsters tonight and is in a state of panic.

My mother is not on the ship at the moment, and I need to go back to take charge of the situation, so I won’t bother you..."

Li Shimin expressed a slight regret when he heard this, and immediately turned to look at Meng Xiuyuan with sincere eyes. Obviously, at this moment, he hoped to make friends with Meng Xiuyuan, a promising young master, more than that beautiful lady.

Meng Xiuyuan felt Li Shimin's sincerity, but after thinking quietly for a moment, he reminded Li Shimin first:

"Master Li, to tell you the truth, Bian Buhui had an accomplice who was behind the throne for him when he raided the Dongming Sect this time.

That man was hiding in this mountain forest just now, and he may still be watching us secretly at this moment.

If I let you go now, then you, the Li Clan, might also offend the Shangyin Gui Sect.

People in the Demon Sect hold grudges, and I’m afraid it’s not worth it for Mr. Li to be implicated because of a chance encounter like me..."

Li Shimin was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he smiled suddenly, turned sideways and said loudly into the dark forest:

"I, Li Shimin, respect heroes the most in my life. When I see a righteous man like Brother Meng tonight, I can't help but be impressed by him.

I regret that I came a step too late and couldn't kill the thief with Brother Meng.

If the Yingui sect wants to take revenge on Brother Meng in the future, please count me, Li Shimin, in mind and ask me to make up for this regret.

Although I am not good at martial arts, I will not be afraid of a group of crooked people..."

Li Shimin's sound was clearly a result of his exertion. Although it was not as powerful as Meng Xiuyuan's before, it was still rumbling among the mountains and forests.

Seeing this scene, except for Meng Xiuyuan, the expressions of everyone present changed drastically. Not only Shan Wanjing, an outsider, was quite surprised, but even the entourage beside Li Shimin couldn't help but look at their young master's face.

Looking at it, his eyes were very puzzled.

The power of the Yingui Sect is well known all over the world, and it can be regarded as one of the two extremes of good and evil in the world. Although everyone would usually curse them, but if they really wanted to offend them to death, no one would dare.

Li Shimin made friends with Meng Xiuyuan tonight. It was obvious that he was just a corporal of courtesy and virtuous people in the family. He wanted to make the Li family have a powerful retainer and friend.

Therefore, taking the initiative to offend a powerful enemy is unwise in terms of interests.

However, Li Shimin didn't care about these strange looks. He just smiled and said lightly to Meng Xiuyuan:

"Brother Meng, now we have all offended the Shangyin Gui sect.

Do you want to come to my boat, have a few drinks together, and discuss how to deal with these demons?"

Meng Xiuyuan smiled slightly and secretly thought that this eternal emperor was indeed no ordinary person. He nodded immediately and said:

"Since Mr. Li is so kind, I won't be polite."

…

Li Clan's three ships were all parked on the canal. Although each ship looked smaller than Shan Wanjing's "Dongming", they were still very impressive.

As soon as Meng Xiuyuan boarded the ship with Li Shimin, he saw an elegant girl in gorgeous clothes coming up to her. Under the light of the lights, it was obvious that her appearance was not inferior to Shan Wanjing's.

"Second brother, how's it going? But we really met that person from the Yingui sect?

Are they coming towards our house?"

Although the girl's voice was slightly anxious, her demeanor was still calm, showing the upbringing that only a young lady from a wealthy family can have.

Upon seeing this, Li Shimin immediately patted his girl comfortingly, then smiled and said:

"I didn't meet you. Your second brother and I were late.

By the time I arrived, the demon from the Yingui Sect had long since died..."

"Come, Xiuning, second brother will introduce you to an important friend.

This is Mr. Meng Xiuyuan, it was he who killed Bian Fuhui of the Yingui sect."

Although Li Xiuning is a woman, she also has the world's affairs in mind. After hearing Li Shimin's few words, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes, and she immediately saluted Meng Xiuyuan politely:

"It turned out to be Mr. Meng who had forced the Yuwen Clan to do nothing...Xiu Ning had been lucky enough to hear about Mr. Meng's great deeds, and when she saw him today, his reputation was indeed well-deserved."

"Miss Li, you're welcome." Meng Xiuyuan cupped his hands and responded calmly.

"Okay, Brother Meng and I hit it off as old friends, don't be so polite, otherwise it will make you look alien...

Xiuning, go and ask the kitchen to prepare some wine and food, I want to have a few drinks with Brother Meng."

Li Shimin smiled and gave a few instructions, and then led Meng Xiuyuan straight to the cabin, looking relaxed and at ease.

Everyone on the ship moved very neatly, and within a short time, a banquet was held in the reception hall, with sumptuous food and wine.

However, Li Shimin did not find anyone else to accompany him, not even his sister Li Xiuning came forward. There were only two maids waiting beside him.

During the banquet, Li Shimin was still very enthusiastic about Meng Xiuyuan. Not only did he serve him food, but he also introduced him personally:

"Brother Meng, this is a steamed Hu cake with a stuffing made of mutton and green onions in the middle. It is cooked with soy sauce, sesame seeds and salt. It is a specialty of the cook in my family.

This is my favorite on weekdays, you must try it..."

When Meng Xiu saw this scene, the doubts he had always had in his heart became more and more intense. He simply said to Li Shimin without covering up:

"Master Li, I have something I don't understand and I want to ask you for advice. Please don't blame me for being rude."

"Brother Meng, please tell me." Li Shimin nodded immediately, with a calm expression on his face.

Meng Xiuyuan put down his chopsticks and said bluntly to Li Shimin

"I believe Mr. Li is usually a courteous and virtuous person who makes many friends.

But even so, Brother Li actually thought too highly of me when we met by chance.

May I ask Master Li, why is this?"

When Li Shimin heard Meng Xiuyuan's words, he did not show any surprise or displeasure. Instead, he nodded again, as if he appreciated Meng Xiuyuan's sincere attitude, and immediately asked:

"If you ask Brother Meng to guess for yourself, why do you think I, Li Shimin, value you so much, Brother Meng?"

Meng Xiuyuan pondered for a moment and then answered:

"I'm just an ordinary person in the world. I have no power and power, and my martial arts skills are pretty good.

But judging from this, Mr. Li has absolutely no need to offend the Yingui sect, the overlord of the martial arts world, because of me.

I never want to make assumptions about others, but there really is no reasonable reason.

From a logical point of view, Mr. Li may have listened to the rumors in the world and wanted to get information about the ‘Mr. Yang’s Treasure House’ from me...”

Li Shimin laughed immediately after hearing this and said to Meng Xiuyuan:

"I thank Brother Meng for his confession, but after all Brother Meng underestimated me, Li Shimin.

Yang Gongbao's treasure sounds indeed very tempting at this moment.
