Volume 9: Sword Opens the Gate of Heaven Chapter 8 Oranges grown in Huainan are oranges

“So powerful!”
"Is he really a Void Refining cultivator? How could a fifth-level sword cultivator kill a sixth-level great demon so easily?"
After the Fujiang Jiao King was killed, the Lianyun cultivators who were in the Qingfeng Sect and watched the entire battle couldn't help but sigh out loud.
Lu Qingshan’s actions just now completely shocked them.
"How can there be such a powerful swordsman?" The leader of Qingfeng Sect said absentmindedly.
"Lu Qingshan..." The deputy leader of Yunjian Pavilion finally reacted at this time.
“Isn’t this the former No. 1 on the Yellow List, the strongest in the fourth realm?!”
Although there are many sects in their Lianyun Mountains, the strongest among them are only Nascent Soul cultivators.
The Yellow List, which brought together the most outstanding Nascent Soul cultivators in the entire human realm, was so far away from them that they did not even think about it at first.
That is the deputy leader of Yunjian Pavilion. As a sword cultivator, he would be more sensitive to Lu Qingshan who won the title of the strongest in the fourth realm as a sword cultivator.
"It's him!" After the deputy leader of Yunjian Pavilion said this, everyone else remembered it and stared at the figure suspended in the sky with wide eyes.
After the Dragon Bird sank into Lu Qingshan's body, Wangchuan also drew an exquisite arc, turned into a blue light, and quietly disappeared into his body.
Lu Qingshan flew in the air, his figure transformed, and he appeared next to the two little girls again with a proud posture.
It is bright as the sun and the moon in your arms, and it is majestic as the morning glow rising.
On the ground in the distance, the huge body and huge head of the Fujiang Dragon King smashed two deep pits in the ground.
In the deep pit, the eyes on the head of the Fujiang Dragon King were wide open.
Die with eyes open.
The Lianyun monks had never seen a more relaxed and carefree scene in their lives.
"This is what a sword cultivator does." The deputy leader of the Yunjian Pavilion murmured, looking a little distraught.

"Did you see it clearly?" Lu Qingshan asked with a smile.
Sister Lin Chuyi nodded vigorously, swallowed her saliva, and said in a childish voice, "I see it clearly, Master."
"Master, can we perform such tricks in the future?" Sister Lin Shiwu's eyes sparkled.
The most iconic weapon of a sword cultivator is always the flying sword.
Powerful, long range, and fast.
Moreover, compared to the magic practitioners who need to make hand gestures and chant incantations to activate their spells, sword practitioners can control their flying swords in a single thought.
This skill can be called a bug.
Of course, in addition to these, the flying sword has another advantage that cannot be ignored, and it is also the feature that players value most.
handsome.
No matter how much one dislikes sword cultivation, one cannot deny that the sword cultivation method of flying into the sky with a single strike of the sword and taking the enemy's head from a thousand miles away is indeed very elegant and cannot be matched by other magic.
In this regard , both men and women are absolutely successful.
So after the two sisters witnessed Lu Qingshan's flying sword skills, they were immediately filled with admiration and stars in their eyes.
Lu Qingshan chuckled and nodded, "Yes."
Then he raised his eyelids and looked in the direction of Qingfeng Gate.
Due to the huge commotion created by the Fujiang Jiao King, the mountain gate of Qingfeng Sect was crowded with cultivators, all looking at him in awe.
"Really?" Lu Qingshan asked again.
Lin Chuyi shook his head, "Master, no."
Lu Qingshan's expression remained unchanged.
He had anticipated this result.
The moment the Fujiang Dragon King appeared, he already had answers to some questions in his mind.
The Fujiang Jiao King claimed that he wanted to avenge the murder of his offspring, so he attacked and killed him.
But the question is, how did the Fujiang Jiao King know his whereabouts?
Judging from the performance of Fu Jiang Jiao Wang, it was clear that he was certain that he would appear in Qingping Mountain, and he was waiting there for an opportunity, lurking for a long time.
Another very important point is that Lu Qingshan understood that what Fu Jiang Jiao Wang said about revenge for killing his son was completely nonsense.
Although many souls died under his sword, he was sure that apart from the many Jiao monsters he killed on Jiaolong Island that year, he had never killed any more since then.
In addition, he had just carefully looked through the panel and reviewed his kill records to confirm that this was not the case and that he had not forgotten.
In short, Fu Jiang Jiao Wang's motives are impure and his information channels are suspicious.
"Who can guess where I am going? And who has a motive for doing so?"
Lu Qingshan only thought about it for a moment and came up with the answer.
It must be the real culprit he is looking for.
"Zhishou Tower..." Lu Qingshan muttered softly.
He possesses the Tianxuan secret of the master of Shuiyue Temple.
Moreover, he did not cause any trouble during this period. He only passed by the mountain gates of several Qingfeng sects like a dragonfly skimming the water. Even someone who was paying attention could not detect his actions.
It doesn't make sense that the real culprit behind this could be tracked down so quickly and his whereabouts and location were unknown.
However, he used the channels of Zhishou Tower to obtain information about Qingfeng Sect.
If the real culprit behind this also has his own power in Zhishou Tower, then he will obviously notice the news quickly if he is careful.
"Is it really the Great Xia royal family?"
Zhishou Tower belongs to the power of Daxia. Apart from the royal family of Daxia, who else can interfere in Zhishou Tower?
Even the Tianji Temple cannot do that.
Regarding this situation, Lu Qingshan didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
The good news is that, at least from the current situation, Tianji Temple can be temporarily excluded from the list of traitors.
If there really is a traitor among the seven major Taoist sects.
There is no doubt that the negative impact caused by the appearance of this traitor in Tianji Temple will be the greatest.
——Tianji Temple is the eyes of the human race and is also one of the most relied-upon forces in Tianhe City. It must not be lost.
So from that perspective, this is good news.
What is worrying is that there is a traitor among the royal family of Daxia, which is obviously a very tricky problem.
The Great Xia royal family is the most powerful force among the human race. It is spread across the seven domains of the human race and is an absolute behemoth.
If such a behemoth had problems inside, the impact would be extremely terrifying and would most likely affect all seven regions.
Thinking about the situation in Huanling Sect, Lu Qingshan couldn't help but rub his brows.
The gap in strength between the demons and humans was already extremely huge, and as a result, the humans, who were at a disadvantage, were so broken internally...
This is a situation that is enough to make many people feel desperate.
Perhaps it is because of the despair caused by the huge disparity in strength that the human race is so riddled with holes?
Lu Qingshan couldn't determine which was the cause and which was the effect for a moment.
But no matter what, his will is extremely firm.
Be fearless and never show any weakness or retreat.
This is something that is imprinted in the bones of sword cultivators.
Moreover, Lu Qingshan was certain that although the human race in front of him looked weak and was no match for the demons, there must be hope for the human race - after all, in his previous life, "Nine Heavens" was a game.
The game planner obviously would not design a stupid plot in which the demons ultimately win and the human race is exterminated.
If this really happens, the game planner will be hung up and despised by players for ten thousand years.
"But where is this vitality?"

Lu Qingshan did not stay in Qingping Mountain for long.
After confirming that this was not the "Qingfeng Gate" he was looking for, he quickly flew away on his sword and headed for the last location of Qingfeng Gate in the intelligence.
Even according to his guess, the news about the real "Qingfeng Sect" had been covered up by the black hand in Zhishou Tower.
But guesses are just guesses after all, so he still has to go on this trip.
After Lu Qingshan left, the cultivators in Lianyun Mountains began to talk about Lu Qingshan and describe how powerful Lu Qingshan was.
Although both the fifth and sixth realms are unattainable for the cultivators in the Lianyun Mountains, they also understand that the fifth realm's conquest of the sixth realm is a legend worthy of praise.
What is even more terrifying is that this counter-attack process does not seem to be thrilling, but rather has a sense of understatement.
It seems that Fujiang Jiao Wang is of the fifth level, while Lu Qingshan is only of the sixth level.
It's really scary!
The news was constantly passed on by word of mouth by the Lianyun monks. Although they were in a small corner of the human domain and their influence was not strong, it would take some time for the news to spread. However, there was no doubt that Lu Qingshan's achievements today would surely spread throughout the seven domains in the near future.

In a quiet study room.
"Is King Fujiang dead?" Xia Yongzhen, who had been paying attention to this matter, received the news from his subordinates at the first time.
"How is this possible? How did he die?" Xia Yongzhen put down the jade slip in his hand and frowned, wondering if King Fu Jiang Jiao had encountered some accident.
The subordinate who reported the news looked at Xia Yongzhen cautiously and said in a fearful voice: "According to what Monk Lianyun saw, King Fujiang Jiao died under Lu Qingshan's sword."
“Three swords,” he said in disbelief, “Lu Qingshan only used three swords, and the Fujiang Jiao King was already beheaded.”
"What?" Xia Yongzhen's eyes widened. "Are you kidding me?"
"I dare not. What I said is absolutely true." The black-shirted monk explained hurriedly in panic.
Xia Yongzhen fell into a daze.
No matter what the reason is, Lu Qingshan is just a Void Refining cultivator.
And the fact that a Void-Refining cultivator could kill the sixth-grade peak Fujiang Jiao King was outrageous no matter how you looked at it!
"Who are these people?" Xia Yongzhen was shocked. "Xia Daoyun is already unreasonable enough, but why does her disciple seem to be even more unreasonable than her?"
"Your Highness, what should we do next?" The black-shirted subordinate leaned over and asked.
Xia Yongzhen was startled, his eyes narrowed slightly, and he did not answer.
The scene fell into silence for a moment.
After a long time, Xia Yongzhen waved his hand and said, "You can leave first. We will talk about this later."
The men in black shirts did not dare to say anything and immediately retreated as ordered.
Xia Yongzhen was the only one left in the study.
His knuckles tapped the table, making a tapping sound, and for the first time, a look of hesitation appeared in his eyes, which were usually sharp.
"It's been less than a year... Is there really such a genius in the world?"
In just one year, he went from the initial stage of refining emptiness to the level of three sword cuts at the sixth level. This speed of improvement is more than just the word "genius" can describe it.
evildoer.
"Should we really kill such a genius?" Xia Yongzhen asked himself.
Killing Lu Qingshan is to prevent future troubles.
But he was wavering now.
"If he were given another hundred years, what would he achieve?"
"At a time when the human race is in turmoil and urgently needs every bit of strength, to kill a sword genius who has the opportunity to become a sword immortal..." Xia Yongzhen was caught in a dilemma and found it difficult to do so.
Finally, after pondering for a moment, a gleam of light flashed in Xia Yongzhen's eyes.
"Anyway, based on the information he has, he can't find out anything, so let's just spare his life for now." He made a very bold, even over-the-top decision.
He has never been a person who relies on luck. There is only one reason for this decision...
Cherish talent.
Perhaps in addition to this, there are some hidden thoughts that he himself is not aware of.
He was not sure whether Prince Qing could really go that far, so he had no choice but to gamble everything and pin the future of humanity on one person.
Even if that man was his grandfather.

It rains continuously in the small town during the spring.
The curtain of a carriage pulled by horses was opened, and a pure white face appeared from behind the curtain, with an expression that could be either angry or happy, full of the youthful aura of a young girl.
The girl stretched out her hand and let the tiny raindrops fall on her hand, feeling very unhappy.
"Qing'er."
A slightly angry voice came from the carriage.
The girl called Qing'er stuck out her tongue and obediently put her hands away.
She was about to retort, but suddenly she saw something and quickly lowered the curtain like a frightened little rabbit.
In the carriage, the middle-aged woman was slightly surprised that her little daughter, who was rarely angry, did not throw a tantrum at her.
Take another closer look.
"Qing'er, why is your face so red? Did you catch a cold?" the woman asked with concern.
"No." The girl said coquettishly while holding her mother's hand. Then, she couldn't suppress her thoughts anymore and lifted the curtain to take a peek outside again.
But what made her feel disappointed was that the slender figure that she could not let go of at a glance had disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The girl felt depressed and regretted her decision.
At this time, the carriage passed a corner and stopped in front of a shop.
My mother got out of the car quickly and went into the shop to collect rent.
The girl, who had never been interested in these things, stayed in the carriage, rolling her dark eyes and looking around boredly.
The next moment, the girl's eyes suddenly lit up.
The figure of the man who had disappeared before appeared in her sight again.
The latter was communicating with a street vendor selling candied haws skewers. Beside him were two very well-behaved little girls.
It looks like a brother with two sisters?
The girl thought.
She plucked up the courage to secretly look at the man not far away.
The contours of his face are very soft, but the edges and corners are very clear. The key point is that the proportions of the two are just right, so he is both handsome and masculine.
The man looked very young, with a pair of beautiful phoenix eyes, which, when narrowed, gave off a kind of alluring feeling.
What makes people unforgettable the most is that this man exudes a transcendent and unique temperament, which is particularly fascinating.

Lu Qingshan handed the two strings of candied haws he had just bought to the two sisters who were looking at him eagerly.
He also went there according to the last location of "Qingfeng Gate" selected by Zhishoulou intelligence, but still found nothing.
This is where the clue ends.
If we continue searching, it would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
But it doesn’t mean that the road is broken.
If his guess was correct, the reason why he couldn't find the "Qingfeng Sect" was entirely because someone had tampered with the intelligence database of Zhishou Tower and covered up the truth with one hand.
However, in the Zhongtian area, besides the Daxia royal family, there is also a giant.
Tianji View .
The person behind the scenes can tamper with the intelligence information of Zhishou Tower, but it is impossible for him to reach out to Tianji Temple.
After preliminarily confirming the innocence of Tianji Temple, Lu Qingshan has decided to visit Tianji Temple again.
"Is it delicious?" Lu Qingshan asked with a gentle smile as he looked down and saw the two sisters licking off the sugar coating and nibbling on the hawthorns.
Children are still children after all, innocent and naive.
"It's delicious. Thank you, Chef!" Sister Lin Shiwu nodded her head vigorously, then looked up at Lu Qingshan and said, "It just tastes different from the hawthorns at home."
Lu Qingshan smiled and said indifferently: "Oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while those grown in the north of the Huai River are bitter oranges. The taste will naturally be different due to the different regions. It's all right as long as they taste good."
"But the candied haws I ate last time tasted exactly the same as at home." Sister Lin Chuyi tilted her head and looked at Lu Qingshan, puzzled.
"It just happens that the taste is similar..." Lu Qingshan was halfway through his words when, in a flash, a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.
"You mean, exactly the same?" He looked at Lin Chuyi and confirmed again.
Lin Chuyi didn't understand why the master suddenly looked serious, so he answered honestly, "Yes."
Lu Qingshan stood there in a daze.
When he and his two sisters returned to the human realm from the underworld, the nearest city to them was Tai'an City.
In order to obtain intelligence information, he entered Tai'an City and bought a string of candied haws for the greedy sisters on the way.
The two sisters mentioned this at that time, saying that the candied haws in Tai'an City tasted exactly the same as the hawthorns in their Qingfeng Sect.
But Lu Qingshan didn’t think much about it at that time.
Now he reacted.
"Oranges grown in the south of the Huai River are oranges, while those grown in the north of the Huai River are tangerines..." Lu Qingshan murmured, an absurd thought arising in his mind.
“No…right?”

The girl in the carriage hesitated for a long time.
Finally, she made up her mind to throw aside her girlish reserve, mustered up her courage, and took the initiative to ask the man which family he belonged to.
But just as the girl lowered the curtain and left the carriage, she found that the man and the two little girls beside him had suddenly disappeared like gods in just that short moment.
She stood there and couldn't help rubbing her eyes, wondering if the man was her hallucination or if he really existed.
