The Melon-Eating Swordsman in the Ancient Dragon World

Chapter 269 The Big Boss Appears

If there were still many things that were unclear when they first met yesterday, after Huo Tianqing's move yesterday, Ximen Chuxue's retreat without a fight, and Dugu Yihe's two assassination attempts, many things can be speculated.

Because there was no evidence, Lu Xiaofeng and Dugu Yihe had not yet gained trust, and Huo Tianqing's character was well established, so Lu Xiaofeng did not doubt Huo Tianqing because of this, and there was no doubt in the original book.

But Dugu Yihe was different. No matter who almost died twice in one night, his thoughts would become different from before.

At least he could listen to Su Shaoying's words now, and he also doubted Huo Xiu.

And Su Shaoying could only say these words to Dugu Yihe, not to Lu Xiaofeng.

But Dugu Yihe still had questions.

"If Huo Xiu is the owner of Qingyi Tower, Huo Tianqing should also know of his existence, otherwise how could he be indifferent to Qingyi Tower's involvement in this matter?"

"I don't know about that." Su Shaoying spread her hands, "This question needs to be answered by Huo Tianqing or Huo Xiu."

Dugu Yihe looked at Su Shaoying, "You seem to have determined that Huo Xiu is the real murderer?"

Su Shaoying looked at Dugu Yihe, "Isn't it strange that he didn't show up from beginning to end?"

Dugu Yihe frowned, "He has always been mysterious, and it was like this before."

Su Shaoying said, "Shouldn't such a person be more suspected?"

Dugu Yihe, "..."

What he said made sense, and he couldn't refute it.

But...

Dugu Yihe frowned and thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "In fact, there are some things you don't know yet."

Su Shaoying asked casually, "What is it?"

Dugu Yihe said, "Of course, it's about why he is called the richest man in the world."

Su Shaoying turned around suddenly.

Seeing Su Shaoying finally showing a surprised look, Dugu Yihe patted his shoulder with satisfaction and walked away, "You are still young, and you don't know many things yet. Of course, this has nothing to do with the fact that he might have set his sights on me."

Su Shaoying's eyes flickered, and he felt that he had finally come into contact with a secret that was not written in the original book.

Huo Tianqing didn't know Huo Xiu's secret, and Lu Xiaofeng didn't know it, but Dugu Yihe was very likely to know it.

"Can you tell me?" Su Shaoying asked.

Dugu Yihe held the hilt of the sword with his left hand and stroked his beard with his right hand, saying as he walked, "Wait until this matter is over, if you guess it right, I will tell you."

"Okay!"

Su Shaoying nodded, Riddler, this taste is right.

When the two returned to Tianquan Temple, Ma Xiuzhen and the other four girls were just about to go out.

"Where are you going?"

"The third sister has been walking in the north before, and knows the nearby scenic spots. She said she would take us for a walk."

The third sister is Ye Xiuzhu.

Dugu Yihe nodded. The three heroes and four beauties of Emei Sect were not flowers in a greenhouse. Although they were not very old, they had traveled a lot.

"Go, be careful on the road." Dugu Yihe said. He was not worried about the safety of the four women because he was the target of the mastermind behind the scenes.

Then Su Shaoying said, "Junior Sister Ye has traveled in the north. Have you ever seen Boss Yan and Huo Tianqing, or heard rumors about them?"

Ye Xiuzhu shook her head honestly, "No, what rumors?"

Su Shaoying said, "It's about the relationship between Boss Yan and Huo Tianqing."

Ye Xiuzhu thought for a while and said, "Yan Tie... Boss Yan's reputation is very extreme. Some people say he is stingy, and some people say he is generous."

Dugu Yihe said lightly, "For unnecessary money, he doesn't spend a penny, and for necessary money, he spends it without blinking an eye."

"Huo... Huo Tianqing's evaluation is very good. Everyone says he is righteous and gentle, and he is a good friend." Ye Xiuzhu said.

Dugu Yihe had a blank expression and did not comment.

"As for their relationship..." Ye Xiuzhu thought for a moment and said, "I heard that Boss Yan trusts Huo Tianqing very much, and Huo Tianqing also manages the business of Zhuguangbaoqi Pavilion very well. The two of them are a wise king and a wise minister, and they are a good story in the Shanxi martial arts world."

...

The four Emei girls went out shopping.

Dugu Yihe returned to the wing room.

Su Shaoying finally had a rare time to rest.

The retreat of the Great Golden Peng King is near the junction of Taihang Mountain and the Yellow River, hundreds of miles away from Taiyuan City. No matter how fast Lu Xiaofeng walks, it takes two or three days to go back and forth.

This is also the reason why Lu Xiaofeng discovered in the original book that Huo Tianqing was not the murderer of Shangguan Feiyan.

Su Shaoying strolled through the Taoist temple and came to a sycamore tree in the backyard of the temple. He couldn't help but think of the days when he and Ding Baiyun visited Taihang in Shanxi.

Then he habitually recalled what beauties there were in the world of "The Legend of Lu Xiaofeng".

Su Shaoying:

Just when he thought of Ouyang Qing from Xue Bing, and Gongsun Lan from Ouyang Qing, a sword light shot out from the dense sycamore tree canopy and pierced Su Shaoying's throat.

The sword light was like lightning, cutting through the sunset.

It was like a flash of lightning.

The killer had obviously been accumulating strength for a long time, concentrating his energy and spirit, and exerted his peak sword at the moment when the target was most relaxed.

The sword light was still five feet away from the target, and the sharp and sharp sword path changes had already blocked all the retreat routes of the target.

When the sword was halfway, the green-clothed man couldn't help but show a touch of joy on his face. He was confident that no one could dodge this sword, let alone Su Shaoying, even the world-famous Ximen Chuxue couldn't do it.

But before his smile fell, he found that the person pointed at by the tip of the sword suddenly disappeared from his sight.

The green-clothed man's heartbeat stopped for half a beat, his face suddenly changed, his body shape changed instantly, he tapped his toes, the sword light passed under the tree, and his body took off again, intending to escape.

Su Shaoying's eyes flickered, he hesitated for a moment, and then suddenly drew his sword.

On the surface, it was the Emei School's Willow Catkins Sword Technique, but it contained the changes of the 72 Styles of Tianshan Wind and Snow and the 7749 Hands of the Returning Wind Dance Willow Sword.

After four consecutive sword strikes, the green-clothed man screamed, only to feel his feet lighten, his limbs ached, and he fell to the ground with weakness.

The meridians on his hands and feet had been cut by Su Shaoying's four swords.

"Qingyi Building?"

Although he knew it might be useless, Su Shaoying still picked him up, "Who sent you here?"

The green-clothed man looked at Su Shaoying with fear in his eyes. He wanted to say something, but unfortunately he didn't know anything.

As soon as he saw his expression, Su Shaoying knew the answer, so he carried the man to Dugu Yihe's room.

This guy's swordsmanship is actually pretty good. Although Su Shaoying doesn't know him, Dugu Yihe is knowledgeable and experienced, so maybe he knows him?

"Master?"

Su Shaoying just arrived at the door of Dugu Yihe's room and saw Dugu Yihe sitting at the table with two teacups on it. Opposite him sat a short old man in coarse linen clothes.
