Moonlight and wind

Under the protection of Miss Yunfang, Xuanyue and her two servants spent the daunting day of the beauty pageant and settled down in the courtyard on the lake in Jinxiufang.

Every day, Miss Yunfang's personal attendants brought her food and clothes, and she lived a peaceful life. However, Xuanyue's desire to go to Southern Xinjiang became stronger and stronger, and she could not hold back.

Zi Zhong saw what Xuanyue was thinking, handed her tea and comforted her, "Miss, please wait a little longer. Since we have escaped the disaster, these few days won't matter." Xuanyue smiled and nodded, then got up and went for a walk in the courtyard.

It was the 4th hour, Jinxiufang had closed down, and only a few men were fetching water and mopping the floor. Qu Xuanyue stood by the fence at the edge of the courtyard, staring at the slightly rippling lake in a trance.

Suddenly, I heard a rustling sound coming from the rockery behind me!

"Who is there!" Xuanyue held the giant clam bracelet and stared at the rockery vigilantly.

In the shadow of the rockery, a dark shadow flashed by very quickly! Qu Xuanyue didn't dare to chase after it rashly, and hurried back to the wing room and closed the door.

"Miss, what happened?" Zi Ling'er also closed the door.

"There are other people in this courtyard!"

"Could it be Miss Yunfang's man?" Zi Zhong asked.

"I don't know. This person moves very quickly, so he must be quite skilled in martial arts." Qu Xuanyue sat on the chair. "If he is Miss Yunfang's man, why would he act so sneakily?"

"That's right. Miss Yunfang said that only her personal attendant would come to deliver food every day and would not disturb the young lady at other times," Zi Zhong analyzed, "so this person must not have been sent by Miss Yunfang!" As he spoke, Zi Zhong stood at the door and looked out through the crack.

"Miss, are we safe here?" Zi Ling'er was a little worried.

"Although this courtyard is hidden, there is no one guarding it. There is no guarantee that there will be people from the underworld passing by here." Qu Xuanyue coiled the beads, "At this time, we can't act rashly."

"Hey! Why are you closing the door in broad daylight?" Miss Yunfang's pleasant voice came from outside the door. Zi Zhong hurriedly opened the door and invited Miss Yunfang in.

"Miss just saw a man..." Before Zi Ling'er could finish her words, Zi Zhong grabbed her sleeve and stopped her from continuing.

After hearing what Zi Ling'er said, Miss Yun Fang's smile froze for a moment, but soon she sat down next to Qu Xuanyue with a smile on her face again, "Miss Qu, can you see who that person is?"

"No, the light behind the rockery is too dim. I'm afraid I'm dazzled." Xuanyue responded to Miss Yunfang with a faint smile.

"That's it!" Miss Yunfang took the teacup handed over by the servant, "How could anyone come to this place? Everyone knows that this courtyard is the important place of Jinxiufang, not everyone can enter!" Miss Yunfang smiled and took a sip of tea.

"Today I came here to pass on a message to Miss Qu. Our Young Master Shan," Miss Yunfang said, looking at Qu Xuanyue's expression, "Finally a letter came!"

"Does Young Master Shan have any instructions?" Qu Xuanyue did not respond to Miss Yunfang's words and asked without changing her expression.

"Let Miss Que live here for now. I am a trustworthy friend!" Miss Yunfang deliberately raised the volume of the word "trustworthy". "After the young master has dealt with the sect's affairs, come to Wudu to send Miss Que to Southern Xinjiang!"

"He actually remembered it all along?" Xuanyue was a little touched. The image of the seemingly cynical but considerate young master emerged in her mind, and she blushed.

"Who are you thinking of?" Miss Yunfang joked.

Qu Xuanyue quickly came back to his senses, "I will do whatever the young master tells me to do!"

"You dead girl!" In Miss Yunfang's boudoir, a girl in black stood by the window looking at the courtyard in the lake. "There is someone hiding in the courtyard, and you didn't even leave a signal. We were almost discovered!" the black shadow scolded.

"You appear and disappear like a ghost all day long, how could I know you would come back at this time!" Miss Yunfang hugged the black shadow's back like a little girl, "Sister, did Grandpa ask you to come this time?"

"No, Grandpa didn't know I was here this time," the black shadow said coldly, still staring at the courtyard in the lake, "Do you remember the green-clad swordsman you met in Jinxiufang last time?"

"Remember, what happened?"

"That person is indeed a disciple of the Yunyin Sword Sect!"

"So, what Grandpa once worried about is finally coming?"

“There is no conclusive evidence yet, but the Donghai Yunyin Sword Sect must investigate. But…” The black shadow hesitated.

"Sister, don't worry. Although it is not convenient for you and me to come forward, and we are one of the four major sects, I know someone who is the most suitable!"

"Who?"

"The eldest young master of Xueying Hall - Shan Zimo!"

"A-choo!" Shan Zimo sneezed in the Snow Shadow Hall, "Who is talking about me again?"

Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu stood at the foot of the four mountain gates, with their hands folded across their chests, looking up at the Xuanwu divine spear inserted into the lintels of the mountain gates.

"Young Master, what were you thinking at that time? Why did you want to throw that thing up there?" Shan Boyu asked him speechlessly.

"Cool! The atmosphere is set there. If I don't do this, I really can't show my charm and strength!"

"Then young master, please show me another one and take down the spear." Shan Boyu was still a little expectant.

"It's not impossible. I can jump up with my inner strength. But..." Shan Zimo looked at the towering mountain gate and couldn't find a place to land. "If I damage the mountain gate again, what if the hall master says I'm destroying public property?" "What public property?"

"What are you looking at?" Everyone else had left, except the Second Hall Master, who drank his tea the slowest. He had just put down his teacup and came up to the two of them.

"Look!" Shan Zimo raised his head and signaled the Second Hall Master to look up.

"Oh, the spear, take it down!" Shan Tianao said very easily.

"How about Uncle Er show me one?" Shan Zimo thought. He had never seen the strength of a Martial King before. He wanted to take this opportunity to understand the martial power of a Martial King.

"Isn't that a waste of talent?" Shan Tianao said proudly.

"Come on! Second uncle is so awesome!" Shan Zimo started to flatter him.

"Okay, everyone, step back and show you my second uncle's leg strength!" When Shan Tianao was about to jump, he took a closer look at the spear stuck in the door lintel, then stopped and imitated Shan Zimo, holding his hands in front of his chest.

"Zimo, how did you get it in at such a tricky angle?"

"This is how the second uncle's strength can be demonstrated!"

Shan Tianao, who was being carried up, changed several positions at the foot of the mountain gate, "Oh, let's do it here!"

After saying that, Shan Tianao circulated his true Qi, gathered his internal energy into his legs, jumped up, stretched out one leg in the air and headed straight for the door lintel!

With a crash, the gravel fell down! Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu dodged quickly.

Bang—the Xuanwu Divine Spear fell to the ground, and Dan Tianao slowly fell down.

"Uncle! You kicked the mountain gate and broke it!"

“What did you say?” Shan Tianao didn’t stop for a moment. His legs, filled with internal energy, seemed to be out of control. With a bang, the Second Hall Master Shan Tianao ran away…

Hearing the noise, the Xuanying disciples of the Second Sect ran up and saw Shan Zimo and Shan Boyu standing on the rubble. "It's not me!" Shan Zimo waved his hands quickly, "It's really not me!"
