Chapter 34 The Secret Meeting
Although Nishang didn't know what Han Xu and Lin Feng were talking about, her intuition told her that it must be an important thing.
Thinking of this, she hesitated a little again.
On the one hand, the task given by the Pavilion Master was to monitor Han Xu's every move and report truthfully. On the other hand, Han Xu's sincerity towards her actually made Nishang resist the Pavilion Master's orders.
Not only did Nishang herself not expect this, but even the omnipotent Pavilion Master in her heart would not have thought of it.
The killer who has been brainwashing since childhood was actually naively touched by the sincerity of others.
"Let's have a rest." Han Xu said, then stood up and went back to the room.
Before leaving, Han Xu said to Nishang: "The food at home is almost finished, you can go and buy some."
Lin Feng glanced at Nishang, and returned to his yard without saying a word.
Nishang believed that Han Xu was deliberately giving her the opportunity to go out alone and asked her to report the situation to the Pavilion Master.
After hesitating for a while, Nishang still fulfilled her maid's obligation first, cleaned up the tea set on the table, and then disguised her a little and left the mansion.
On this day, the four masters of the Jindao Sect made an appointment to make a duel and decided to belong to the position of the master.
The four hall masters are all ninth-grade masters and are all fierce people who follow Wang Xiaohu to conquer the world. They don’t know how much blood is in their hands, and they are also considered to be a terrible person in the royal city.
Moreover, after years of operation, each of them has a huge network of relationships behind them.
Whoever can take the position of the leader of the Golden Sword Sect can master this terrifying net and become the king of the world under the royal city.
Early in the morning, a lot of people gathered in the duel in the western suburbs, including spies sent by the government, secret whistles organized by the powerful, and various masters in the world.
In addition to wanting to see the duel scene of four ninth-grade masters, their biggest purpose is to witness the birth of the new king of the underground world of the royal city.
However, the duel had passed for a long time, but there were no four protagonists, and even one soldier from the Golden Knife Sect could see.
Just when everyone was puzzled, news came from the city.
The new sect leader of the Golden Knife Sect has appeared.
What no one expected was that this new sect leader was not any of the four sect masters.
In a dark room, Ni Shang stood respectfully, and opposite her, the mysterious Lord Li of Xiaoxiang Pavilion was sitting.
"Is that all?" Lord Li's hoarse voice sounded, as if he was a blunt knife to remove his bones, which made people feel uncomfortable.
"That's all." Nishang said respectfully, "Han Xu rarely even left the door in the house these days, and no one in the house visited."
Pavilion Master Li stared at Nishang. Through the black and gold mask, Nishang could still feel two gazes that could penetrate the soul fell on her. Even if she said any small lie, it could be exposed immediately.
"Do you think the person who monitored Han Xu for six years was arranged by His Majesty?"
"Ni Shang couldn't imagine that any other force could have a motive."
Lord Li pondered for a moment, playing with an exquisite sandalwood piece in his hand. After thinking about it, he said, "It is indeed very possible to say that it was arranged by Your Majesty. No matter what, Han Xu is the son of King Han. Just this identity is worthy of His Majesty's attention."
"Is King Han very powerful?" Nishang couldn't help asking. In her opinion, Emperor Wu was the master of the entire Great Wu Dynasty, and no one dared to offend him.
"Of course." said Lord Li, "not only King Han, but also the other three kings of different surnames are not easy to deal with. You are still young and have never experienced the rise of the four of them. You can't understand how powerful these four people have. Each of them is a veritable pillar of the country."
Speaking of this, even this mysterious and powerful pavilion master couldn't help but feel a little fascinated.
No matter who their generation is, no matter what talent and background they have, they can only live under the halo of those four.
Although Nishang cannot empathize with her, she can understand one or two things from the tone of the Pavilion Master.
With such a strong father, Han Xu would not be a waste even if he couldn't practice.
What kind of story does he hide?
In Nishang's heart, her curiosity about Han Xu became increasingly serious. Since Han Xu used Mirror Flowers and Water Moon on her that day, Nishang always felt that there was a fog that could not be dispersed on Han Xu's body, covering his true face.
It makes people want to explore.
Nishang did not tell Pavilion Master Li about these thoughts, but was just buried in his heart.
If it were the case before, this would never have happened, because the training she received since childhood was to not hide anything or thoughts from Lord Li.
Even Nishang herself did not realize that Han Xu had a place in her heart. At least, when she made a decision, she would subconsciously think about the impact on Han Xu.
And all of this is because of the New Year’s Eve conversation, because Han Xu cares whether she is happy or not.
For a woman, especially a woman who was born in a brothel and regarded as a tool since childhood, this sentence is the deadly weapon that hits the heart the most.
Nishang's eyes were seen by Pavilion Master Li, and he suddenly snorted coldly, and a powerful pressure hit Nishang like a mountain, causing her face to change drastically.
"People's Lord!"
"You are not moved by Han Xu, are you?" Pavilion Master Li asked coldly.
"Absolutely not." Nishang was so scared that she knelt on the ground. Even though the corners of her mouth were bleeding, she did not dare to raise her head.
She quickly said, "Ni Shang is only loyal to the Pavilion Master, please give it a clear guide."
"It took me more than ten years to build you into a handy tool. Don't let me down, otherwise, you know the result." Lord Li said coldly, "Put yourself in the right position, you must remember that you are just my tool, a tool that cannot be considered a dog."
"Ni Shang understands."
"Hmph, you should take care of yourself." After saying that, Lord Li was about to leave, but walked to the door and turned back and said, "By the way, something interesting happened today."
Nishang didn't dare to ask, so she could only kneel down and listen humbly.
Pavilion Master Li said: "The four hall masters of the Golden Knife Sect originally made an appointment to duel today and select the sect leader, but an unexpected person appeared."
"This person claims to be Wang Xiaohu's senior brother, and used Wang Xiaohu's unique skill to become famous. Five Tigers Broken Sword Knife defeated the four hall masters with one sword and became the sect leader of the Golden Sword Sect."
"What is most unexpected is that no one has seen him except the four masters of the Golden Knife Sect. This person seemed to appear out of thin air. After taking the position of the leader of the Golden Knife Sect, he suddenly disappeared from everyone's sight."
