Evil Master and Disciple

Liu Shiheng closed the spiritual sound mirror and sat on the chair with a sinister expression.

He felt that the world was very unfair.

Thirteen years ago, it wasn't just their Xiaoyao Sword Sect that owed a blood debt. Why did they choose to come after them?

The bloody scene of that night reappeared in his mind.

Not a single chicken or dog was left, so how could a wronged ghost appear to collect debts thirteen years later?

Even if someone managed to survive that bloody night, how could they have found out about the Xiaoyao Sword Sect?

Even the Qingyun Pavilion, whose intelligence network covers every corner of the world, reported that it was done by the people of the Demon Cult.

Suddenly, Liu Shiheng slowly sat up straight.

He seemed to have found a loophole in this matter.

No one should know about this except those who took action back then.

Could it be that the other sects in Qinglong Mountain want to use this incident to target me?

Currently, the largest sects in the Qinglong Mountains are Xiaoyao Sword Sect, Baolong Temple, and Tianxing Valley.

They all want to become the number one sect in Qinglong Mountain, and they all want to develop from a small sect into a medium-sized righteous sect that rules the entire Qingyun Mountain.

However, these three companies have been checking and balancing each other for many years and their strength is almost the same.

At present, no sect can suppress other sects.

Liu Shiheng suspected that what happened today might have been the work of the other two sects, Baolong Temple and Tianxing Valley.

However, these are all Liu Shiheng's personal speculations. He has no evidence to show that today's events are related to these two sects.

After pondering for a moment, Liu Shiheng decided that he could not put all his hopes on that person.

Whether it was the cultivators from Qinglong Mountain who were causing trouble, or the wronged soul from thirteen years ago really came back for revenge, he had to be prepared.

Thinking of this, he left the room and ordered his disciples to ring the big bell and close the entire mountain gate.

At the same time, Wuyun County.

Shortly after Ye Feng and others left, the news of what happened in the restaurant spread to every corner of Wuyun County at an extremely fast speed.

Wuyun County is just a few dozen miles west of Qinglong Mountain, and the people in the city can see monks from the Qinglong Mountains almost every day.

These people are very familiar with the Qinglong Mountains.

When people learned that a mysterious person was seeking revenge on the powerful Xiaoyao Sword Sect in the Qinglong Mountains and wanted to take the head of the Xiaoyao Sword Sect's leader within three days, this topic quickly became the number one hot topic in Wuyun County.

By evening, word had spread throughout the city that the Xiaoyao Sword Sect had recalled its disciples who had gone out, locked the mountain gates, and was on high alert.

This made the atmosphere in the Qinglong Mountains very tense.

Almost everyone was discussing what evil deeds the clan leader Liu Shiheng, who always had a good reputation, had done thirteen years ago to attract someone to come and seek revenge openly today.

Many people even started reading the Jianghu Gazette published by Qingyun Pavilion more than ten years ago.

The biggest event thirteen years ago was that a family of cultivators in Qizhou was wiped out overnight.

However, no one linked this incident to Liu Shiheng.

Qizhou is located in the northwest of the mainland, thousands of miles away from Qinglong Mountain.

Moreover, the head of the cultivation family that was destroyed, Guo Wei, had extremely high cultivation level and hundreds of disciples in his family.

The Xiaoyao Sword Sect might be able to destroy the cultivation family in Qizhou, but it is absolutely impossible to do it without anyone knowing. If the two sides fight, the Xiaoyao Sword Sect will probably suffer a lot of losses.

The fact that they were able to wipe out an entire family in a very short period of time without leaving a single survivor shows that the person who did it back then was not only much stronger than that cultivation family, but also had an absolute advantage in numbers, otherwise it would be impossible for no one to escape.

Obviously, Xiaoyao Sword Sect does not meet these two conditions.

Moreover, the report issued by Qingyun Pavilion also said that it was done by people from the Demon Cult.

This is equivalent to putting the final nail in the coffin of the Guo family massacre.

Thirteen years ago, apart from the tragic massacre of the Guo family in Qizhou, no other major events occurred.

So now most people are confused and don’t know what Liu Shiheng did back then.

However, judging from the reactions of Liu Shiheng and Xiaoyao Sword Sect, that blood debt was probably not groundless.

As Xiaoyao Sword Sect announced the closure of the mountain gate and no one was allowed to enter or leave, the atmosphere in the entire Qinglong Mountain Range became unusual.

Baolong Temple and Tianxing Valley, which are comparable in strength to Xiaoyao Sword Sect, seemed to have no reaction, but they also secretly recalled the elders and disciples who were away.

Although the mountain gate was not blocked, the security force was strengthened.

At dusk, three horses galloped on the official road west of Qinglong Mountain, raising a cloud of dust, which caused the people and merchants on the road to curse.

Needless to say, these three horses belong to Ye Feng and his three cousins.

They traveled seventy or eighty miles in the afternoon.

This made the three of them feel as if they had been cheated again.

Because the horse dealer in Wuyun County assured the three people that his horses were all fine horses that could travel a thousand miles a day and eight hundred miles a night.

Now all three horses were foaming at the mouth, and they had only run seventy or eighty miles.

As it was getting dark, the three of them had no choice but to rest at an inn beside the official road.

The so-called posthouse is similar to a restaurant or inn, but it is run by the imperial court.

As long as it was on the official road, the imperial court would open an inn every thirty miles.

Usually, it is the exchange of letters between the people, which is somewhat similar to the postal system in Ye Feng's previous life.

In addition, the post station would also entertain officials who came and went.

Because each post station was funded and operated by the local county government, delivering letters and entertaining passing officials required huge expenses every year, which put a lot of pressure on the local county government.

Later, in order to alleviate financial pressure, the post station was no longer limited to hosting officials, and a post station for civilians was added.

Passing business travelers can also stay here, but the price is relatively high.

Ordinary people would rather sleep outside the inn and rarely spend money to stay in the inn.

Ye Feng is the richest local tycoon in the world today, so of course he doesn't care about this little money.

He then stayed in an inn called Wuyun Liuli Posthouse on the official road.

The name is very straightforward, meaning that this place is sixty miles away from Wuyun County.

The posthouse here is not small. The large building on the south side is used to accommodate passing officials, while the dozens of buildings on the north side are used to accommodate civilians.

After handing the horses over to the servants at the inn to feed them with fodder, Ye Feng booked two adjacent superior rooms.

Originally they wanted to open three rooms, but Yun Shuang'er said that was not necessary. She and Shen Tianqi lived together, so they could take care of each other.

Ye Feng thought, they haven't even gotten married yet, and they already know how to save money for themselves?

After checking into the room, Ye Feng asked the waiter at the inn to send a table of food and wine to his room.

The occupancy rate of civilians in the inn is not high, but today three fat pigs have arrived, so the inn staff are naturally attentive.

Just as the servant was about to lead the three men to their house, the sound of horse hooves came from afar.

Soon they stopped at the entrance of the posthouse.

It's two women.

One of them was wearing a pink dress and a veil like her cousins, so her face couldn't be seen clearly. She was wearing a cloak without a single speck of color.

It can be seen that she has a good figure and fair skin.

The pair of eyes exposed outside the veil seemed to have ripples flowing in them.

The other one was a little yellow-haired girl who looked only fourteen or fifteen years old. She was not wearing a mask and was wearing a green cotton jacket. She seemed to be the maid of the masked woman.

The little yellow-haired girl said, "Postmaster, please feed our horses some fine fodder, open a first-class room, and send some wine and food to the room. Also, get a few buckets of hot water, as my young lady needs a bath."

As she spoke, the little yellow-haired girl threw a gold ingot on the counter.
