The Legend of the Young Swordsman: A Prequel - A Phantom Melody Embarks on a Journey Through the Mar

The horses' hooves clattered on the ground, and the boy on horseback played a beautiful tune on a jade flute. The music echoed through the forest, attracting birds flying in the sky.

Unable to resist, it came to hover and swirl around Helian Yun Shen.

Looking at the birds flying around him, Helian Yunshen's brows revealed a light and relaxed expression.

The events that occurred in the previous town that day had been completely forgotten by Helian Yunshen; in his mind, it was nothing more than a trivial matter that wasn't worth paying attention to.

At this moment, he let the white horse carry him in any direction.

He didn't take it to heart.

However, when this matter reached Tianqi City, it caused a shock throughout the entire city. In all these years, no one had ever been able to break into the home of the Xiao family in such a way.

Moreover, they openly threatened to kill him.

In the eyes of these families and sects in Tianqi City

Helian Yunshen's behavior was undoubtedly asking for trouble and inviting disaster upon himself. With this in mind, these families turned their attention to the palace, wanting to see how Emperor Tai'an would handle the situation.

In the Imperial Garden

"Ruofeng, what is your opinion on this matter?" Emperor Tai'an asked his son Xiao Ruofeng, placing a chess piece on the chessboard.

"In my opinion, we should not deal with it. Let this matter fade away gradually. I know Yun Shen's strength very well."

Compared to the Western Chu Sword Immortal and the Qingcheng Mountain Sect Leader, he's only slightly inferior; we can't afford to mess with him. If we were to truly deal with him, our Xiao clan would suffer a severe blow.

A century-old foundation and rich heritage may be reduced to ashes here!

Following his father's chess piece, Xiao Ruofeng placed his own piece, which immediately formed a black dragon, a black dragon with the power to dominate the world.

The goal is to completely devour all the white pieces on the chessboard.

When Emperor Tai'an saw the black dragon his son had made, he calmly took out a chess piece and placed it on the chessboard.

This chess piece, like a dragon-slaying sword, directly cut Xiao Ruofeng's black dragon in half, rendering all his advantages meaningless.

With its head and tail separated and unable to support each other, Black is now in a situation where defeat is inevitable.

"Your subject admits defeat!"

Faced with this situation, Xiao Ruofeng did not persist in trying to salvage the game and decisively chose to concede defeat. Upon hearing his son's words, Emperor Tai'an, who was holding a white piece, put it down.

"Recently, many secret guards have reported that people from Tianwaitian have been appearing frequently in Beili territory. I will leave it to you to deal with their appearances."

"Take care of everything that needs to be taken care of. Don't leave me with any mess."

Standing up and stepping out of the pavilion, he looked at the scenery in the Imperial Garden and gave instructions to Xiao Ruofeng. Upon hearing his father's instructions, Xiao Ruofeng immediately took the orders from his father's hands.

…………

at the same time

In the westernmost border area of ​​Beili, a group of people crossed the border and entered Beili territory.

The woman walking at the front, her face veiled, was none other than Yueyao, the acting sect leader of the Heavenly Outer Heaven Sect. Her purpose in coming here was to assist her sister in bringing back the person with the innate martial vein.

At the same time, they also tried to kill Helian Yunshen.

"Yuexi, where have they been all this time?"

In an inn in a border town

Sitting on the stool, Yueyao asked her maid Xiaolian where her younger sister was. Upon hearing Yueyao's question, Xiaolian reported back.

"Young Miss, the Second Young Miss and her entourage have been lingering around Tianqi City. Moreover, according to information we have received, Baili Dongjun, who possesses a natural martial vein, has already entered the Jixia Academy to study."

They may have already become disciples of Mr. Li.

"Master Li from the Jixia Academy? Tianqi City? These are not good places!"

Hearing this, Yueyao frowned and muttered to herself.

Xiaolian agreed with Yueyao's assessment, but at that moment Yueyao questioned her coldly.

"Why didn't you take Baili Dongjun away when you first met him? At that time, he was just a blank slate and didn't have any particularly powerful experts protecting him."

It's easy to get it.

Why wasn't that done?

"When we were at the Gu family in the Southwest, we originally planned to take Baili Dongjun with us. However, Helian Yunshen was there at the time, and he seemed to be protecting Baili Dongjun."

Therefore, it was not successful.

"And then? I've seen the intelligence reports. She and Baili Dongjun were alone on their way to Mingjian Manor. Surely they could have made a move on that road?"

She could understand what happened with the Gu family in Southwest Road, but why didn't she seize the many opportunities that followed? They were clearly excellent opportunities, and they could have succeeded.

"At that time, the Second Miss wanted to see the Marquis of Zhenxi and the Sword Immortal of Xichu, so she delayed all of these actions and did not take any action."

"The Marquis of Zhenxi!"

Upon hearing this title, Yueyao couldn't help but recall the scene when the capital of Beique Kingdom was breached. If it weren't for the three sisters, including the Marquis of Zhenxi, they might have been discovered and taken away.

After thinking about all this, Yueyao seemed to understand her younger sister's hesitation. After all, Baili Dongjun was the grandson of the Marquis of Zhenxi, so it was normal that he couldn't bring himself to do it.

However, rescuing his father is also of paramount importance.

"By the way, where is that young man named Ye Dingzhi that Yueqing met back then? Yueqing said that he might also be a person with a natural martial vein."

"The information we have so far suggests that this person is also in Tianqi City."

"It's Tianqi City again!"

When Yueyao heard about Tianqi City again, she felt a headache coming on. Why were the people they were looking for all in Tianqi City?

Just how powerful is Tianqi City that it can attract so many geniuses?

"Do you know where Helian Yun Shen is?"

Putting all that aside, Yueyao coldly inquired about Helian Yun Shen's whereabouts. Xiao Lian pursed her lips when she heard Yueyao's question.

Thinking about what she had done, the guilt welled up inside her again. However, Xiaolian ultimately suppressed this guilt!

"What we know so far is that a few days ago, Helian Yun Shen appeared in a town not far from Qingcheng Mountain, where he almost killed a prince of the Xiao family."

Tell me in detail.

Hearing this, Yueyao became interested and wanted to know what it was all about.

Xiao Lian then explained the matter in detail. After listening to her explanation, Yue Yao tapped her slender fingers on the table, lost in thought.

Then he spoke.

"We can make good use of this matter and secretly do something to this prince. We can pretend that Helian Yun Shen was behind it and pin this matter on Helian Yun Shen."

This way, we'll have a much higher chance of taking him down, and we'll also have an ally.
