Chapter 644 Tianqing Realm
In the imperial study, the strange light flickered. After about an incense stick of time, Wu Xiuxian walked out of the imperial study.
The Tiance Army soldiers guarding the gate saluted one after another. For some reason, when they faced Wu Xiuxian, a chill rose from the bottom of their hearts. Wu Xiuxian in front of them seemed to have changed a lot.
"Pass the order down, I want to retreat." Wu Xiuxian just said this sentence, then left and went to the imperial retreat place in the palace.
After he left, the Tiance Army soldiers kneeling on the ground found that the clothes under the armor were completely soaked with their own cold sweat.
After Wu Xiuxian retreated, the Great Wu Dynasty temporarily calmed down. After a period of heated discussion about the recognition of the master of the Sword Domain, people shifted their interest and gradually stopped talking about Han Xu.
After Han Xu became the master of the Sword Domain, he knew everything about the Sword Domain. He found that the altar of the Sword Domain Nine Heavens was actually a passage to the upper world.
So, he teleported directly from the Sword Domain Nine Heavens and returned to the upper world. However, when he stepped on the land of the upper world again, he felt a little ridiculous.
In front of him, there were several rows of dozens of strong men, among whom three young men stood at the front. The three of them exuded the strongest aura. They were all in the realm of good fortune. The lowest realm of the others present had also reached the late stage of the Saint Realm.
Behind Han Xu was a dark cave. After he returned to the upper world, he appeared in this cave, and the cave had only this one exit.
Therefore, even if Han Xu knew through the system that there were many strong men nearby, he could only bite the bullet and walk out of the cave first. He originally only hoped not to encounter any mysterious rituals. It would be better for those strong men in the system to be scattered in different places and not gather together.
After all, the system is a fool-proof way to capture the information of all people within the detection range, and cannot distinguish their specific locations. The probability of these people gathering together is actually very, very small, unless there is a grand event, but the probability of encountering such a thing is also very, very small.
Unfortunately, Han Xu seems to have encountered it.
When he walked out of the cave, he immediately felt a series of eyes falling on him, followed by countless powerful divine senses covering him, as if everyone in front of him wanted to see him thoroughly.
Fortunately, Han Xu still had a steady hand. Before walking out of the cave, he used Qianmian to change his appearance.
As soon as he walked out of the cave, he heard people outside whispering.
"It appeared, it really appeared!"
"Unbelievable, it's true!"
...
Before Han Xu heard the whole story, he noticed two obvious hostilities falling on him, which were released by two of the three people standing in the front.
"Sword Demon descendant, you finally showed up!" A young man standing in the middle stepped forward and said in a deep voice. One of the two hostile voices came from this man.
Han Xu was very surprised. How did this man know that he was the descendant of the Sword Demon?
"Brother, did you recognize the wrong person?" Han Xu said. It was impossible for the news of him becoming the Lord of the Sword Domain to spread to the upper realm so quickly, so he suspected that there was some misunderstanding. The identity of the descendant of the Sword Demon could not be admitted casually, otherwise it would bring a lot of trouble.
Han Xu was not afraid of trouble, but he didn't like trouble either.
"I won't recognize it wrongly. Look behind." Another person said.
Han Xu looked back and saw three dark red characters engraved on the mountain wall next to the cave: "Sword Demon Tomb".
"The Zhuge family once predicted that the descendant of the Sword Demon will walk out of the Sword Demon Tomb and take away the title of the world's number one sword from Wanmei Villa."
"It's just a prophecy, without any evidence." Han Xu was still explaining, but as soon as he finished speaking, someone said, "The Zhuge family's predictions have never been wrong."
Han Xu was speechless. After he went to the upper realm, he also heard a lot of legends about the Zhuge family. The world-renowned Dansheng List, the Creation List, the Saint List and other rankings were formulated by the Zhuge family. The ranking of the strength of the list is almost correct, unless it is a special case like Han Xu.
Han Xu thought about it, and it seemed that the prophecy circulated by the Zhuge family really had not been wrong even once.
"If I say that you have recognized the wrong person, will you believe it?" Han Xu asked.
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a sword energy coming towards him. The man who first said that he was the descendant of the Sword Demon took a step forward, and his whole momentum was like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath. He said, "I didn't expect that the descendant of the Sword Demon would be such a slick person. I am so disappointed."
"My brother, we have no grudges in the past and no grudges in the present. Who are you?"
"Wanmei Villa, Ximen Wudi!"
"Wanmei Villa? Ximen?" Han Xu's mind flashed with some memories of his previous life. There was indeed an unparalleled swordsman in Wanmei Villa, and his name was Ximen Chuixue.
Han Xu didn't know whether the swordsmanship of Ximen Wudi in front of him was invincible, but his appearance was indeed very invincible.
He was wearing an extremely simple outfit, with his chest open to the belt, revealing his strong muscles. A sword was inserted in the belt, and there was a faint sharp sword intent outside the scabbard.
On top of his tough clothes, there is a bright red plum blossom embroidered on the chest. How should I put it? This embellishment is just right.
The most eye-catching thing about him is the position of his eyes, which are covered by a completely opaque black cloth. From the slight tilt of his head when he spoke, Han Xu guessed that he was most likely blind.
"Since you are the descendant of Senior Sword Demon, tell us your name and then draw your sword!" Ximen Wudi said coldly.
Han Xu was stunned for a moment and said, "Why should I draw my sword? I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. I have no interest in the title of the world's number one swordsman!"
"How dare you!" Ximen Wudi said, "If it weren't for the fact that you came out of the Sword Demon Tomb, I would have doubted your identity."
He continued, "Back then, my Ximen family's ancestors fought with the Sword Demon for three days and three nights, and the outcome was still undecided. Later, the Sword Demon failed to attack the God Realm. Before his death, he made an agreement with my Ximen family that his descendants would complete the unfinished battle with the Ximen family for him."
"These are just grudges between ancestors. Why do you take them so seriously? I have something important to do, so I'll leave first. We'll meet again when we have time. Goodbye!" After Han Xu finished speaking, he turned into a stream of light and flew away. Everyone was unable to react for a while. No one thought that he would leave like this, so when everyone realized it, they could no longer find Han Xu.
Han Xu was in a hurry to leave because, on the one hand, he didn't want to conflict with Ximen Wudi. This guy was clearly a sword fanatic, and he was a stubborn person, with a personality similar to Wei Kuang.
Another reason was that Han Xu was also very worried about the situation in Luo Ling and Taiyi Dao. Since the people from Wanmei Villa appeared here, it meant that this place was the Tianqing Realm farthest from the Tianxuan Realm.
After Han Xu left, a handsome and elegant young man next to Ximen Wudi said, "Everyone, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."
After that, his figure disappeared as if he teleported, and everyone seemed to be used to it. This young man was the other person who showed hostility to Han Xu before.
