Ming Dynasty: pacifying the rebellion and defending the border, dominating the world

Chapter 11: Horrible handwriting, there are masters?
In the private room, the familiar voices of Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue were heard, so obscene that it made people want to punch him.

"Lu Xiaoji, aren't you usually quite bold?"

"Guess, guess the big one."

"I don't believe you can guess it."

Although Sikong Zhaixing's words were annoying, they were telling Lu Xiaofeng a horrible fact.

That means Lu Xiaofeng’s guess was not accurate enough.

Or, guessed too little!

Lu Xiaofeng turned his gaze stiffly and looked at Sikong Zhaixing: "Your handwriting?"

"In order to catch you in a trap, I specifically informed the prince to dispatch more experts to prevent you from escaping with your Qinggong. After all, your Fengwu Jiutian, Lu Xiaofeng, is an unparalleled Qinggong. Even I am not absolutely sure I can catch up with you within fifty miles. I can't let you get away."

Sikong Zhaixing rarely saw Lu Xiaofeng being humiliated, so he was very proud of it when he talked about it.

It was as if he had done something extraordinary.

Lu Xiaofeng looked at him with gritted teeth: "Then I really have to thank you."

He thought that five Masters of the Mystery of the Profound Finger blocking the door and fifty Masters of the Mystery of the Profound Finger on standby to surround the enemy was already an unimaginable lineup, but it turned out that the bastard Sikong Zhaixing had even prepared more backup plans?
This doesn't even leave him any chance to survive!
Blanch!
Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but curse in his heart, wishing he could strangle the smug Sikong Zhaixing in front of him to death.

Hua Manlou couldn't help laughing while listening to their conversation.

He could tell that Sikong Zhaixing had no ill intentions, so although he was still worried, he was not too nervous.

"Can I ask a question?"

"Go ahead, I'll answer any questions I can."

"With your character as an old monkey, why are you willing to serve in Prince Su's Mansion? This is not in line with your character." Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but ask the biggest doubt in his heart. Sikong Zhaixing is an unrestrained and free-spirited person, otherwise he would not have the title of King of Thieves.

Based on his understanding of Sikong Zhaixing, he would definitely not join such a force unless he had some compelling reasons.

Why did he join Prince Su's Mansion?
"This is a long story. When you join the Prince Su's Mansion, you will know why." Sikong Zhaixing did not explain to Lu Xiaofeng why he joined the Prince Su's Mansion, but just let him see for himself.

At the same time, it was also revealed that he actually joined voluntarily and was not forced.

"Are you guys done chatting?"

The leading Cang Yun soldier waited until the others finished chatting before speaking, "Then Mr. Lu Xiaofeng, Mr. Hua Manlou, and Mr. Ximen Chuxue, please come with us."

"Actually, we don't have a choice, do we?" Lu Xiaofeng wiped his nose, stood up helplessly, and glared at the shameless Sikong Zhaixing fiercely.

Sikong Zhaixing knew that Lu Xiaofeng was resentful, but what he did was indeed unkind, so he could only endure it.

But he was still wondering where he had revealed his true identity.

In the conversation just now, wasn't he persuading from a friend's perspective?
When they went downstairs and saw the young man with curly hair and blood-red clothes sitting in the inn, Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuxue couldn't help but shrink their pupils.

"It's actually him?"

"Huh? Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuxue, who did you see?" Hua Manlou couldn't see, but he could sense the shock of the two people beside him, and couldn't help but ask curiously.

"The owner of Jiangnan Wuqi Villa, the infatuated young man Lian Chengbi, one of the Six Gentlemen of the Wulin."

"It's actually him?"

Hua Manlou couldn't help but exclaim. Lian Chengbi was a perfect person, with a distinguished family background, elegant demeanor, and a graceful figure. He was known as a child prodigy at a very young age, and his fame spread throughout the world at a young age. He was someone who anyone who heard of him couldn't help but praise.

But all this changed completely not long after the marriage between Lianjiabao and Lanzhou Shen family three years ago.

The entire Lianjiabao was wiped out overnight, and only Lian Chengbi and a few others escaped by chance. Later, Lian Chengbi wandered around and disappeared for a while. No one knew where he went or who he met.

All I know is that he reappeared in public two and a half years ago.

Dressed in red, he is decisive in killing and possesses a terrifying celestial cultivation.

When he first came back to the martial arts world, he wiped out the seven gangs and six factions, and three aristocratic families in the Jiangnan martial arts world in one night. He also killed Xiaoyao Hou, the great master of celestial phenomena who was known for his unparalleled martial arts skills, and became famous in the martial arts world overnight.

And rebuilt Lianjiabao.

I didn't expect him to be here now.

"It seems that the mystery of the disappearance of this infatuated young man now has an answer." Lu Xiaofeng finally couldn't help but smile bitterly. This was the nth time he had smiled bitterly today, more times than in the past few years combined.

He finally understood what Sikong Zhaixing meant when he asked him to guess too much.

In order to ensure that he would not escape, in addition to dozens of Zhixuan masters blocking the door, even a great master of astronomy like Lian Chengbi was sent.

But you really think too highly of Lu Xiaofeng!
Ximen Chuxue and Hua Manlou remained silent.

Perhaps no one in the entire Ming Dynasty could have guessed that Lian Chengbi, who was far away in Jiangnan, would join the Prince Su's Mansion thousands of miles away.

Sikong Zhaixing seemed to be very familiar with the visitor. He lightly jumped in front of him and sat down, greeting him: "Old Lian, you came in person?"

"The prince was worried something might go wrong, so he ordered me to come and take care of things." Lian Chengbi smiled faintly, looked at the three people walking down the stairs, and clasped his fists: "Lu Xiaofeng, Hua Manlou, Ximen Chuxue, I have long admired you."

"Greetings, Mr. Infatuated Young Master." Several people nodded at him.

He was considered the best among the younger generation of the Ming Dynasty. He had already become a celestial grandmaster at the age of 24. He had also defeated a Shaolin grandmaster in less than 30 moves and had a record of killing other grandmasters. He was more famous than anyone else in the martial arts world.

"Sikong Zhaixing has done me a favor and is my friend. Since you are his friends, you are also my friends."

"If he encounters any difficulties in the martial arts world in the future, he can send a letter to Jiangnan. I will help him with whatever I can and will never refuse."

This promise made Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuxue and Hua Manlou look at Sikong Zhaixing in surprise.

Lu Xiaofeng couldn't help but wonder, how much help did Sikong Zhaixing give to Lian Chengbi that he, a great master of astronomy who was feared by the world, valued him so much?
"If, there is still a chance."

Lu Xiaofeng shrugged politely at Lian Chengbi.

This time he went to meet Prince Su, his life or death was uncertain, and he had no idea what to do.

"Haha." Lian Chengbi couldn't help but chuckle. He glanced at Sikong Zhaixing, who winked at him. He immediately understood without saying anything. He just smiled faintly and said, "Sikong Zhaixing always tells me how smart and capable you, Lu Xiaofeng, are. I've been friends with you for a long time. When you all come out, I've prepared a banquet at Tingyuxuan in Lanzhou. I hope you will come and show me the honor."

"Of course, with such a gracious invitation from the infatuated young master, how dare we refuse?" Lu Xiaofeng's eyes lit up, and he couldn't help but think to himself, "It seems that my worries are unnecessary."

Since Lian Chengbi said so, Lu Xiaofeng naturally felt relieved and agreed.

Ximen Chuxue and Hua Manlou also nodded.

They were all smart people and could guess a lot from Lian Chengbi's attitude.

"In that case, take care, everyone." Lian Chengbi stood up and drank tea instead of wine. He did not follow them out. Although he was ordered to come and take charge, it was not just for this matter.
