There is a alley in the west of Xuanwu Street, and there are few pedestrians. The walls of the houses on both sides are high and wide, with tiles continuous, and trees several meters tall can be seen everywhere. Hu Xiaotian walked straight to the end of the alley and saw the plaque of "Guanlan Pavilion".

Dugu Yu's residence occupies a very wide area, and it is unknown how deep it is. It is plain and restrained, and it looks different from the outside. The door is closed and silent, as if it has been wasted for a long time.

Hu Xiaotian knocked on the door knocker as the rules. After a while, a lazy question came from behind the door: "Who is here? What's the matter?" Hu Xiaotian said: "Hu and Mr. Luo Biaoluo and Mr. Yao Tie Yao, I came to visit him today. Please inform me." The man was stunned for a moment, and his voice immediately became respectful: "You are Mr. Hu, the Fourth Master Hu?" Hu Xiaotian said: "That's right." He was a little surprised. Could it be that Dugu Yu had guessed that he was coming and had some instructions in advance?

I heard the noise behind the door, and the two door panels were rotating as the door shaft opened. A middle-aged man took a few steps and bowed and said, "Welcome to Mr. Hu, the Fourth Master Hu, come! The youngest person has sent someone to report to the master, please come to the hall to meet." Hu Xiaotian said, "Let's lead the way."

After turning the screen wall, he walked more than ten steps, and saw figures flashing. Luo Biao, Yao Tie, Yu Fang, Tao Benzhang and others rushed over. Yao Tie was the most excited. As soon as he met, he knelt down and said with his fists: "Yao was in a desperate situation that day, and it was all up to the young master to rescue him. Please accept my beggar!" Hu Xiaotian hurriedly rushed to support him, pretending to be angry: "It is natural for fellow disciples to help me. Are you going to kill me? Please get up quickly!" As he raised his hands, Yao Tie couldn't help but stand up straight.

Luo Biao, Tao Benzhang and others had a slight twitching eyelids, and he was secretly shocked. The move that Hu Xiaotian showed was a high-level state of light weight, at least two levels, exceeding Yao Tie. Since the last time they were separated, how could his cultivation level have improved to such a level? Who can match such a terrible speed of cultivation? Currently, among the four major disciples, Chi Yan's martial arts skills are the strongest, but according to this situation, Hu Xiaotian will definitely come from behind. Tao Benzhang laughed and said, "Xiao Tie, the young master has saved my life. Do I also kowtow to show my gratitude? It's just that I don't thank the great kindness, remember it in my heart, there is no need to do too many false rites." Luo Biao smiled and said, "Young Master is also a person with temperament. We might as well see the real seal at the wine table!"

Hu Xiaotian was happy and had a greater sense of this trip. He laughed and said, "It is just my wish to make friends by drinking. Everyone is a friend of suffering and suffering, so don't be dissatisfied with me!"

At this moment, a man and a woman flew over and shouted from afar: "Brother Hu!"

Hu Xiaotian bent his teeth and waved: "Yanzi!"

Dugu Yan was still wearing a fiery red outfit, with a tight waist, long legs, and full of moving curves. She smiled happily, her eyes shining brightly, and grabbed Hu Xiaotian's arm without any hesitation and said angrily: "Why did you drag it until today to see me? People are talking about you every day, do you know?"

Hu Xiaotian rubbed his nose and said with a wry smile: "Yanzi, I have a long story. I have a lot of enemies everywhere, so I have to be careful every step I take. If I make a fuss, I may not be able to reach Jinling."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone suddenly heard someone say, "Hmph, fearing the enemy is like a tiger, looking forward and back, how can you be worthy of joining the leader? Hu Xiaotian, you are far worse than the young master Zhan!" The person who spoke out, his long hair was draped over his shoulders, and his swords were crossed behind him, and his eyes that were filled with jealousy were wide open.

"Brother!" "Brother, don't be rude!"

Tao Benzhang's face darkened and shouted, "Zhong Han, what are you talking about? The fourth young master defeated the enemies alone and was full of courage. How could you let you slander? A few days ago, who killed the giant enemy of Hongze? Who defeated Wudang disciples first and then defeated Gaoqing City, Hengshan? With the power of the young master, Ji Haoming had to be on high ground, for fear that the title of "the best in the world" would fall. As for the young master you praised, he was a defeated general under Ji Haoming, how could he say the same thing!"

Hu Xiaotian's heart is as bright as a mirror. Zhong Han was probably overwhelmed by jealousy and could not stand Dugu Yan intimate with him, so he spoke sharply and aggressively. Zhong Han is the leader of the Five Tiger Generals, with a great reputation and a leader among the young generation of the Demon Cult. As long as he dispels his concerns, he can turn enemies into friends. He smiled and said, "Uncle Tao, you can't say that. After all, the second senior brother is first in the beginning, and I must respect it at any time."

Zhong Han had preconceived prejudice. Even though he knew that Hu Xiaotian had a surprising record, he still didn't agree: "Mr. Hu, you are so full of fantasy in the world. I don't know how many points are true or what are fake? Zhong is not talented, so I want to ask the master to give me some advice!"

Tao Benzhang was furious and said in a deep voice: "Zhong Han, the young master has a noble status, but you have repeatedly spoken rudely. Could it be that you want the elder to punish him?"

Hu Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "Uncle Tao must not be angry. The Divine Cult has always been invincible for martial arts and struggles. He pursues the strong as respect, and his status is second. Since Brother Zhong Han and Zhong are interested, how can Hu refuse to fight? In order to avoid delaying the important matter, what should he use to limit ten moves?"

Zhong Han said with a stern face: "Ten moves are only ten moves!"

Hu Xiaotian was excited and pushed Dugu Yan away gently, and said lightly: "Please!"

Seeing this, everyone's pupils shrank again, and it was not surprising that the internal force was released from outside. The difficulty was to control it without any breath of fireworks! Those who reached this level were already a top expert in the martial arts world.

Zhong Han was immediately filled with awesomeness, and his fighting spirit was like fire, and his blood was thriving. He never gave up easily. The stronger he encountered, the more he was, the more he was ruthless he often finally dragged down the enemy with his crazy thoughts. In addition to being extremely talented, the key was that he was extremely strong in willpower and would never give up. He took a deep breath and suddenly roared: "Look at the fist!" His arms were shaken, and the fist wind roared angrily, and a move "Thunder splitting the air" was blasted out in his chest.

The strong wind pressed against the face, and Hu Xiaotian also raised his two fists. He used the War God Fist, which combines hardness and softness, and secretly matches the way of yin and yang changes. It seems slow but it is fast, and then comes first.

Bang! The four fists hit each other like thunder roaring. The terrible fist force compressed to the extreme and exploded, as if a storm suddenly arrived, flying sand and stones swept through the surrounding flowers and plants.

Zhong Han felt that the internal strength of the stormy waves came one after another, as if endless, and the terrifying pressure made people desperate. His feet were deep on the ground, his hair was upside down, and the blue veins on his arms were bulging like earthworms, desperately stimulating his potential to the limit. Hu Xiaotian just wanted to establish his authority and did not want to seriously hurt his opponent. His fist style slightly closed, and he stretched his feet and gently hooked it. With a muffled sound, Zhong Han was caught off guard and fell heavily, falling into dust.

Hu Xiaotian clasped his fists and said, "Brother Zhong, I'm giving in!"

Zhong Han jumped up quickly, his face flushed red, and he was defeated in one move, which was even more uncomfortable than killing him. He subconsciously looked at Dugu Yan, and saw that she was full of joy and praise, clearly standing on the side of his opponent, and couldn't help but feel like a thorn in his heart, shouting: "I don't accept it! I want to compete with you for weapons!" "Canglang" pulled out the knife and gently pulled the knife flower, the cold wind roared, and the sword light crossed and fell like a crazy tiger.

Tao Benzhang and others were all shocked. What Zhong Han used was the "Blood Evil Mad Sword". It was created by Dugu Yu. If the sword was released, it would be stained with blood. If he killed the enemy without mercy, how would it end if he accidentally injured Hu Xiaotian? Dugu Yan stomped his feet in a hurry and shouted: "Brother Hu, take three steps quickly and be careful of his right rib!"

Zhong Han was so depressed that he blew up a few times. Dugu Yan turned his elbow out, revealing the mystery of the sword technique. Wouldn't he be sure to lose? Hu Xiaotian smiled slightly when he heard this, and instead of retreating, the sword light flashed, and the man and the sword crashed into the sharp sword light. There was no disadvantage in the strong and domineering place. The sword was soaring, Mars flew, and the bitter cold air spread wildly, forcing everyone to retreat. Suddenly, the sword light surged, like a sea of ​​anger, and the turbid waves were surging. The heaven and earth were filled with ruthless destruction, completely suppressing Zhong Han's bloody aura. Everyone even had an illusion that perhaps the next moment, Zhong Han would be crushed to pieces and his body and spirit were destroyed.

At this time of the battle, Luo Biao, Yao Tie and others all changed their qualities. Dugu Yan finally felt soft-hearted and couldn't help but say, "Brother Hu, show mercy under the sword."

When! Another loud noise, the figures separated.

Zhong Han staggered for several steps to stand firmly, his previous arrogance was swept away, and the humiliation in his eyes became stronger. What a proud and strong character he was, and what face he had to continue to entangle? After all, both sides were not mortal enemies. Could it be that they really wanted to use the Demon Cult to disintegrate and die together? He smiled and said with a sneer: "Young Master's sword technique is indeed amazing, Zhong felt ashamed." After that, he was sheathed and jumped away without looking back.

Dugu Yan said, "Brother, where are you going?" Tao Benzhang coughed lightly and said, "Yanzi, don't worry about him. A man will not be able to become a great man without setbacks."

After this little episode, Tao Benzhang and others looked at Hu Xiaotian with a higher glance. In the Demon Sect, the strong will always be respected. What's more, with Hu Xiaotian's performance, he will probably be able to surpass his fellow disciples as the next leader in the future. Who would foolishly let go if he had the chance to bet the winner in advance?

Hu Xiaotian was surrounded by everyone and came to the hall. When he saw Dugu Yu standing outside the door, he hurriedly stepped forward and bowed: "Elder Dugu, are you okay? I've been so disturbed by the younger generation who came to visit."

Dugu Yu said coldly: "Young Master, you are polite. As the saying goes, you don't go to the Three Treasures Palace without any trouble. The young master suddenly visited him, but I'm afraid he's not just here to reminisce about his old love? Jinling is not as good as other places, and it's unfathomable. If you make a mistake, you will be a disaster. If I can help, I don't need to say that if the difficulty is too difficult, please forgive me."

Hu Xiaotian secretly cursed the old fox with an ambiguous attitude and was slim and unable to say that it was a mute man who was suffering from the Coptis chinensis. He said with a smile: "Elder Dugu is the mainstay of the Divine Cult, famous all over the country, and has walked more bridges than I have walked. Why should he be so humble? As long as the elder takes action, any problem will be solved. A few days ago, the elder was ambushed by Huangfu Ji and Fei Zhixian. The situation was extremely unfavorable. Isn't it safe to break through? To be honest, if Elder Xiang was besieged at that time, he would probably have lost his slaughter." Anyway, he was not afraid of offending Xiang Hu, and he wouldn't care even if the rumor spread to Xi'an.

Dugu Yu was flattered and his face was relieved. He knew that the other party was hinting that he had been kind to him, so he would not refuse everything. He said: "No matter what, I owe the young master a favor. As long as I can, I will just say it bluntly."

Hu Xiaotian said: "I remember the elder daughter Jin Yinuo!"

The two looked at each other and laughed, and walked into the hall hand in hand. At that moment, the guest and the host and the guest sat down separately, drank tea and greeted each other, and praised each other indifferently. Dugu Yu glanced at his daughter and suddenly said, "Did the son know that Elder Yi returned to the God Cult?" Hu Xiaotian said, "Of course I know." Dugu Yu smiled and said, "Elder Yi is in trouble, and it is a blessing for the God Cult! For the young master, it is a long-cherished wish and happiness comes from heaven. When you two are wedding, I will give you a generous gift, so don't refuse at that time!" Hu Xiaotian bowed and said, "Thank you, the elder, for your good words."

Dugu Yan's hands and feet were cold, and tears filled her eyes. She suddenly screamed: "You two are not good people, they hate it!" She kicked over the chair with a bang and grabbed the door and left.

Who here knows Dugu Yan’s little thoughts? But how could Dugu Yu allow his daughter to marry someone as a concubine? It would be fine if Hu Xiaotian was the leader, but the dispute between the leader was not yet clear. How dare Dugu Yu rashly express his position on the side? Once he stands in the wrong camp, the consequences are extremely serious. His mention of Hu Yi’s marriage in public was a vague expression of his attitude, which made his daughter lose her heart.

Hu Xiaotian sighed inwardly, and hardened his heart and said seriously: "Elder Dugu, the reason why I went to Jinling thousands of miles was that I had followed the secret order of the leader to accomplish a big thing. But I was just a new arrival and had no way to go, and I hope the elders can help me."

Dugu Yuqi said: "Isn't the young master here to challenge Ji Haoming?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "Appointment to Ji Haoming is just a way for me to cover up Xingzang."

Dugu Yu nodded and immediately asked Tao Benzhang to come out of the hall to defend closely, and said, "Since the leader has an order, why don't the subordinates do their best? Please tell me!"

Hu Xiaotian explained the task concisely and clearly, and also revealed the secret of his "King of the God of the Underworld" and finally said: "The leader never forgets the sufferings of his tribe, hoping that everyone can follow the will of heaven and integrate into the Ming Dynasty. However, this matter is of great importance, and we must first explore the attitude of the court. Otherwise, all efforts will be in vain."

As the elder of the Demon Sect, how could Dugu Yu not understand the current predicament of the Demon Sect and the hardships of the Jiuyi tribe's life? He murmured: "The leader has great aspirations and long-term vision, which is beyond our reach! No wonder he ignored the opposition of the people and determined to accept you as his disciple and teach you the magical skills of the sect. You are a Han Chinese with pure blood and have natural advantages in dealing with the Han emperor. Moreover, you have no connection with the major clans in the sect. You can easily get the right to do it and break the ills with drastic moves. The leader's move is actually an hinting that you have taken over as the leader!"

Hu Xiaotian said calmly: "I dare not speculate on the leader's intentions. I wonder if Elder Dugu is willing to help me?"

Dugu Yu lowered his head and pondered for a while, without answering a question: "If it is led by the young master, then what are you going to do next?"

Hu Xiaotian said: "The future and destiny of this religion and the migration and resettlement of hundreds of thousands of tribes depend on the emperor. As long as he is willing to nod, any difficulties are no problem. Therefore, first, we must first find out the emperor's attitude and let him accept our sincerity, and then we can discuss other things."

Dugu Yu said: "In this way, you bet all the chips on Zhu Yuanzhang? Do you know what kind of person this founding emperor is?"

Hu Xiaotian said slowly: "Zhu Yuanzhang was born in a poor peasant family. He was tough-willed, studious, broad-minded, good at employing people, and his literary and military skills were superior to others. He respected his teachers and values ​​Confucianism, advocated Buddhism, cared about the common people, hated corrupt officials, and intended to create a prosperous Ming Dynasty. In the court, he said everything and killed decisively, and no one dared to go against his intentions."

Dugu Yu sighed: "After all, the young master did not settle in the capital and was far away from the imperial city. He only knew one thing and not the other. He was cruel and suspicious. Even the heroes who shared life and death and shared hardships, he was never ruthless! Cao Guogong Li Wenzhong, a nephew of Zhu Yuanzhang, was poisoned and poisoned by the imperial doctor; Prime Minister Hu Weiyong worked hard and made great contributions, and was falsely killed for the crime of rebellion; Xu Dawei, the founding hero, was bedridden by Yu Nei, and died of ate the steamed goose he gave to the emperor. In order to consolidate the imperial power, Zhu Yuanzhang listed various charges over the years, and executed hundreds of nobles, generals and court officials, and were killed.

There are tens of thousands! If a young man traded with Zhu Yuanzhang, it would be like a scam with a tiger, and he would be at risk of being crushed to pieces at any time!" After a pause, he said, "The Ming Cult has prospered because of Zhu and declined because of Zhu. It is no secret that the Ming Cult was the most prosperous. When the Ming Cult was at its peak, there were nearly one million people. The leader Zhang Ziyi had the best martial arts in the world. What was the result? Before the Ming Cult, the White Lotus Sect was the largest sect, and the Red Turban Army was spread all over the country, and the leader Han Liner even established a country to become emperor. But soon the foundation of the White Lotus Sect was destroyed, and Han Liner drowned. In the end, it was Zhu Yuanzhang who benefited from it! What if he was sweet-mouthed and used his old skills again, how should we deal with it?"

Hu Xiaotian was so cold that he heard it. With Zhu Yuanzhang's scheming methods, how could he do good deeds to the Demon Sect outside the law and not blame him for the past? Just from the fact that he defeated the White Lotus Sect, the Ming Sect, and the World Association, he would never allow the Jianghu gang to become bigger, so as not to threaten his throne of imperial power. If he tricked the Jiuyi tribe out of his hiding place and suddenly turned against him and started a massacre, the Demon Sect would suffer a catastrophe!

Dugu Yu stared at his uncertain face, leaned back, and said lightly: "What decision does the young master have now? Do you want to give up your original plan?"

Hu Xiaotian clenched his fists and said resolutely: "I have been re-created by the leader, but I can only sacrifice my life to repay you. Even if the road ahead is difficult, I will never give up! In any case, we must take the first step first. As for whether the court accepts it, it is a different matter."

Dugu Yu said, "Since the young master has the determination to persevere, I will not pour cold water on it. The lessons of the past are not far away, and being cautious is the right thing to do. I will arrange for you and Zhu Tao to meet tomorrow night and explore the intentions of the court. How about it?"

Hu Xiaotian was shocked and blurted out: "Zhu Tao? Isn't that the owner of Yanyu Tower?"

Dugu Yu nodded and said, "Zhu Tao is Zhu Yuanzhang's confidant, and represents the court to secretly control the general trend of the world. Only through him can we understand the intentions of the Emperor of Ming Dynasty. Whether the future is good or bad depends on your judgment!"
Chapter completed!
