The First Immortal of Swordsmanship

The top of the Western Mountain.

The sea of ​​clouds is rolling, and the pine waves are bursting.

In an open space, there are two rows of desks and seats facing each other.

Governor Xiang Tianqiu and the patriarchs of the three top aristocratic families, Zhao, Bai, and Yu, have all arrived and are talking and laughing among themselves.

These great men who could shake three earthquakes with just one stomp of their feet in Gunzhou City, and who had overwhelming power, were all calm and calm.

Yu Baiting keenly noticed that there were two unfamiliar faces next to Xiang Tianqiu.

An old man with gray hair, simple appearance, wearing a wind and fire Taoist robe, full of tranquility.

One is a handsome middle-aged man holding a feather fan in his hand. He is extremely well-dressed and his demeanor shows a noble and graceful demeanor.

Xiang Tianqiu did not introduce the identities of these two people, but Yu Baiting had already judged in his heart that the origins of these two people were destined to be extraordinary.

It may even be Xiang Tianqiu's long-hidden trump card!

"No, Xiang Tianqiu, an old fox, can't possibly have only these cards in his arsenal."

Yu Baiting secretly thought.

While I was thinking to myself, suddenly a loud drum sound came from the foot of the mountain, followed by a loud shout:

"His Royal Highness Sixth is here——!"

The sound reaches the sky.

Hearing this, Xiang Tianqiu looked around and said with a smile: "Everyone, we will see together later how many surprises His Highness the Sixth Prince has brought this time."

Everyone couldn't help laughing, their demeanor was calm and leisurely.

Xiang Tianqiu looked at a man in gold robes on one side and said with a smile: "Master Zhang, after this tea party is over, you will become the new governor of Gunzhou. You must treat me to a good banquet."

The man in the golden robe has a majestic figure and a black beard and hair. He is Zhang Lingyu, the governor of Huai'an County.

Hearing this, he quickly clasped his fists and said, "Thanks for your kind words, Sir, I told my servants yesterday to arrange a banquet in the skyscraper, and I'm waiting for you to come!"

Soon, there was a sound of footsteps on the mountain road not far away.

Xiang Tianqiu and others stopped talking and looked over.

Then they saw the sixth prince, Zhou Zhili, leading a group of people walking along the mountain road.

"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, we have been waiting for you for a long time, please come soon!"

Xiang Tianqiu let out a hearty laugh and took the initiative to greet him.

There was a majesty and aura belonging to a prince in Zhou Zhili's expression, and he slightly cupped his hands and said, "I've kept you guys waiting for a long time."

Xiang Tianqiu smiled boldly and said, "We have just arrived, Your Highness, please take a seat soon."

Zhou Zhili nodded and asked, "Isn't Marquis Yun Guang here?"

He had seen the Red Scale Army stationed there at the foot of the mountain before, and thought that Yunguang Hou Shen Jiusong had already arrived at the top of the mountain.

Xiang Tianqiu smiled and said: "Last night, Marquis Yunguang went to Tianyuan Academy to visit an old friend, and he did not plan to participate in this tea party in person."

Zhou Zhili said oh and said no more.

But at this moment, a frequent passer-by suddenly asked in surprise: "Senior Brother Kang? Why are you here?"

Not far away, an old man with white hair and a simple appearance, wearing a wind and fire Taoist robe, said calmly: "Junior Brother Chang, Junior Sister Qingjin, I am also here under orders this time."

Chang Guoke and Qing Jin looked at each other, their hearts sinking.

The old man's name is "Kang Shanjing" and he is one of the deacons of the Qianlong Sword Sect's outer sect. He takes orders from the deputy sect leader, Feng Liu.

And Zhi Fengliu is the master of the third prince.

It can be said that Kang Shanjing belongs to the third prince's faction!

Will the frequent travelers forget that not long ago, in the wilderness, he was chased by three grandmaster realm disciples around the third prince?

But at this time, Kang Shanjing appeared here. There was no need to think that he must have been ordered to help Xiang Tianqiu and the others!

The third prince's people appeared in the second prince's camp. This is also easy to explain, because the two princes have already reached an alliance.

Zhou Zhili also felt a thump in his heart and his pupils were slightly condensed. Although he didn't know Kang Shanjing, he could tell that the other party was also from the Qianlong Sword Sect!

"Show me a favor, sir." Zhou Zhili sighed.

Xiang Tianqiu chuckled and said, "Xiang doesn't have such a big face."

As he spoke, he introduced Kang to the people around him and said: "Everyone, this is an expert from the Qianlong Sword Sect, Master Kangshan Jingkang, a third-level master of cultivation, a true expert outside the world!"

Yu Baiting was shocked in his heart and sighed secretly. Who would have thought that just a tea party would involve the power of the Qianlong Sword Sect, the first holy land in the Great Zhou Dynasty?

Zhao Qing, the head of the Zhao family, Bai Hanhai, the head of the Bai family, and Zhang Lingyu, the governor of Huai'an County, were also shocked in their hearts, and their eyes changed when they looked at Kang Shanjing.

Only the handsome middle-aged man holding the feather fan had the same expression as before, as if he already knew this.

On the other hand, Zhou Zhili's side, Zheng Tianhe and Mu Zhongting's hearts sank. As soon as they reached the top of the mountain, they were struck by Ma Wei!

Because before, they did not expect that Kang Shanjing would appear here.

Cha Jin was slightly nervous.

She is a descendant of the Yuelun Sect of the Great Wei Dynasty. In a place like this, she will inevitably worry about her identity being discovered.

However, Cha Jin obviously thought too much.

Although everyone in the venue was surprised by her beauty, they didn't pay much attention to her.

Only Su Yi was indifferent to these and turned a blind eye.

Those in the field may have overwhelming authority in this world.

But to him, they were just a group of strangers after all. None of their identities or origins mattered, so naturally he didn't bother to pay attention.

"Your Highness, please take your seat quickly."

Warmly invite Xiang Tianqiu.

Zhou Zhili nodded and sat on the seat facing the east.

Chang Keke, Zheng Tianhe and others all took their seats one by one.

Su Yi looked around by himself, selected a location near the cliff, and said, "Put the wicker chair there."

Upon hearing this, Cha Jin quickly did it.

Then, with everyone watching in astonishment, Su Yi lay lazily in the wicker chair.

From his angle, he could just see the rolling sea of ​​clouds under the morning light, and the scene was quite magnificent.

As for the strange looks from nearby, Su Yi completely ignored them.

How could he, Su Xuanjun, pay attention to these worldly eyes?

What's more, among those worldly things here who are fighting for secular power, how can they be more pleasing to the eye than the scenery of steaming clouds and rosy clouds?

When Zhou Zhili and Zheng Tianhe saw this, their expressions became a little strange. Looking at this lazy look, Mr. Su really seemed to be here for an outing...

Strangely enough, when they saw this scene, they felt inexplicably relieved.

It's as if the lazier Su Yi is and the more unruly his posture is, the more it proves that he is confident in his heart.

But in the eyes of Xiang Tianqiu and the others, Su Yi's posture at this moment can no longer be described as arrogant. It is simply arrogant to the point of being unreasonable!

However, when it comes to the city, each of these worldly big shots is more powerful than the other, so they will not be angry about this, and will directly get angry.

"Your Highness, is this Mr. Su Yisu next to you?"

Xiang Tianqiu asked with a smile.

"good."

Zhou Zhili said calmly.

Xiang Tianqiu sighed softly and said: "You are not arrogant and waste your youth. Mr. Su's demeanor is indeed different from those of his peers."

Zhou Zhili frowned slightly and said, "Sir Xiang, since everyone is here, let's just talk about business."

Xiang Tianqiu thought deeply and said, "What His Highness said is exactly in line with Xiang's intention."

As he spoke, he pointed to Zhang Lingyu, the governor of Huai'an County next to him, and said: "Your Highness, this is the new governor we have selected. As long as you nod, today's tea party can end with everyone's happiness."

Zhou Zhili snorted coldly: "I came here on the orders of my father, and I am specifically responsible for appointing the new governor of Gunzhou. How can you have the final say on this matter? Do you still intend to resist the decree? Can’t do it?”

Xiang Tianqiu was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "But according to what Xiang knows, His Majesty also said that if the Second Highness has a suitable candidate, he can also recommend him to compete for the position of governor. And Mr. Zhang Lingyu, Mr. Zhang, is the Second Highness. The person chosen by His Highness is young, powerful, and resourceful, so he is the most suitable person to serve as the governor of Gunzhou."

Zhou Zhili looked indifferent and said: "But in my opinion, Mr. Mu Zhongting Mu is the most suitable candidate."

When the two were talking, they were tit for tat, which made the atmosphere of the tea party quite depressing.

Only Su Yi seemed to be unconscious, lying in a wicker chair, drinking wine, eating snacks and snacks prepared by Cha Jin, admiring the vast sea of ​​clouds in the distance with magnificent haze in the morning light, leisurely and calmly.

"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, why don't we open the sky and speak frankly? Under this situation, you have almost no chance to elect Mu Zhongting as governor."

Xiang Tianqiu stared at Zhou Zhili and said with a smile, "Similarly, Xiang doesn't want to have a complete stalemate with His Highness on this matter. How about... how about you give in?"

He was full of confidence, with a confident and stern look on his face, and looked like he was sure of victory.

Zhou Zhili snorted coldly and said, "Why didn't you give in?"

The smile on Xiang Tianqiu's face faded and he sighed softly: "Xiang respects His Highness, but if Your Highness makes it difficult for Xiang, he can only argue with reason."

Zhou Zhili laughed sarcastically and said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense and just show your trump card. If I, Zhou Zhili, can take it, then I'm sorry, but the position of the governor is not up to you." ”

Xiang Tianqiu couldn't help but laugh and said: "Your Highness, if you speak quickly, then Xiang X will be embarrassed."

As he said that, he suddenly glanced at Xue Ningyuan, the head of the Xue family, and said, "Brother Xue, please come and take a seat here."

Zhou Zhili and the others were startled at first, and then their expressions changed slightly.

Xue Ningyuan stood up, sighed and clasped his fists: "Your Highness, it's not that Xue doesn't support your approach, but in Xue's opinion, Mr. Zhang Lingyu, chosen by His Highness, is the most suitable person to serve as the governor. One position.”

With these words, the whole place fell into silence.

Zhou Zhili and the others all looked uncertain and were caught off guard.

No one thought that the head of the Xue family had already betrayed His Highness the Sixth Prince and chosen to join the Second Prince's camp?

When Yu Baiting saw this, he couldn't help but take another look at Xiang Tianqiu. This old fox actually had such a hidden skill.

Seeing Xue Ningyuan go to the opposite camp and take a seat, Zhou Zhili said with a gloomy expression: "Xue Ningyuan, you are the leader of the clan, but you go back on your word and are capricious. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at by the world?"

Xue Ningyuan, who has an elegant temperament, sighed: "A good bird chooses a tree to roost, not to mention that Xue carries the burden of the entire clan on his back, so he cannot follow His Highness the Sixth Prince all the way to the dark side."

After a pause, he said softly: "Your Highness, those who understand current affairs are heroes. You have also seen that in the current situation, you are already at a disadvantage. Why can't you take a step back?"

"You, a traitor, are you trying to persuade me to bow your head and give in?"

Zhou Zhili laughed in anger.

"Your Highness, anger will not solve the problem."

Xue Ningyuan said, pointing at Su Yi who was sitting on the side of the cliff, and said with disdain,

"Or does His Highness really think that in this situation, the arrogant Su Yi can help you turn the tide?"
