nPlenty Gold Company, main entrance…

nThree swordsmen surrounded a small girl. The one in front, a swordless swordsman, was busy signaling with his hands, trying to express something.

n

n

n“It is Sword Telepathy. Do you understand Sword Telepathy?”

n“Do you not understand?”

n“Then… How about Sword Will? You should understand Sword Will. That person has Innate Sword Will at least. Since he can come up with Sword Telepathy, he might be higher than that level, but he can’t be a swordmaster.”

n“Is there such a person… your master? Or are you senior and junior brother or senior and junior sister, something like that?”

n

n

nMu Zixi blinked her big eyes.

nShe knew the three were looking for Xu Xiaoshou as soon as they mentioned Sword Telepathy and Sword Will.

nBut…

nWere all killers so direct nowadays?

n

n

nThey wanted to kill Xu Xiaoshou, but they came to ask his junior sister for help.

nHow could she possibly show them the direction?

n“I don’t know the person.”

nThe little girl swung her twin ponytails a few times and pressed the conical hat lower.

nThe swordless swordsman in front was on the verge of lashing out. “There must be such a person. You are lying to me!”

n“I’m not lying to you. There’s really no such person.”

n

n

n“There is!”

n“There is not!”

n“Ugh…”

nThe swordless swordsman fell silent. He turned his head around to look at his senior brothers behind him, sending a signal by rolling his eyes.

n“What do we do?”

nThe swordsman with nine swords tilted his head to the side, signaling for him to get out of the way and let him give it a try.

nThe swordless swordsman was delighted. He saw his second senior brother approach the girl with his back hunched while rubbing his hands with a broad smile.

n“Little girl, we’re really not bad people…”

n

n

nThe swordsman holding the sword was livid, thinking that his two junior brothers were ill-behaved.

nHe glanced at the two behind him and came before the girl, asking, “Can you tell me your name, little girl?”

nHe thought, “To ask for some information, you must at least ask for her name!”

n“Those two have no idea how to ask for information!”

n“If you don’t know how to respect people, how can you ask for something?”

nMu Zixi became anxious. Her heart tightened. She was feeling more panicked.

nShe could tell that these three swordsmen, who were all misbehaved, were quite powerful. Since she was someone in the peak of Origin Court Stage, she had no way to resist them.

nAt this moment, she suddenly missed Xu Xiaoshou a little.

n“At least when that guy is here…”

n“He would be more misbehaved than these three!”

n“Bah, at least I’d have some sense of security…”

nThe little girl hesitantly said, “I really don’t know the swordsman you are looking for. Maybe you have the wrong person. I’m just waiting for someone here.”

n“Waiting for someone?”

n

n

nThe swordsman holding the sword was delighted, thinking that he had a breakthrough and there was a chance.

nCupping his hands, he introduced himself sincerely, “I am Gu Qingyi.”

nHe pointed his finger toward the two people behind him. “These are my two junior brothers, Gu Qing’er and Gu Qingsan. May I ask… Who are you waiting for, little girl?”

nThe two swordsmen behind him showed an understanding expression simultaneously, thinking that he was indeed their big brother and knew how to ask questions.

n“The two of us lack experience dealing with women…”

n“Learn!”

n“We must continue learning from our big brother and will eventually learn the way of the world.”

nMu Zixi froze, puzzled by their names.

n“Are you triplets? But you three don’t look alike!”

n“No. Our names were given by our master. We’re simply cultivation brothers…”

nBefore big brother could finish talking, Gu Qing’er interrupted, “You’re right, little girl. Although we are only cultivation brothers, our relationship is comparable to triplets!”

nGu Qingsan hurriedly added, “Little girl, you and second senior brother are right. Although the three of us are not blood brothers, we’re closer than brothers!”

nMu Zixi was confused.

nGu Qingyi almost pulled out his sword to strike the two idiots away.

nHe silently yelled, “Did I tell you to talk?”

n“You two are not good for accomplishing anything. You are only good for messing things up!”

nHe turned around and glared at the two junior brothers. The two trembled and hastened to cover their mouths with their hands at the same time.

n“Who are you waiting for, little girl?” Gu Qingyi asked again.

nMu Zixi was speechless for a while.

n“She’s waiting for me!”

nAfter a long while, a voice came from the rear. Mu Zixi was delighted and turned around to look in the direction of the sound.

nWas her senior brother there?

nIn the next second, the little girl felt disappointed.

n“Another killer? Why does Xu Xiaoshou have so many enemies?”

nThe incoming person was nobody other than Xiao Sixteen.

nHe had been observing for a long time and finally couldn’t help but come over.

nThe three swordsmen were clearly just passersby and could be completely ignored.

nAlthough he hadn’t seen Xu Xiaoshou, he knew Mu Zixi.

nIn Xu Xiaoshou’s profile, he had read about everyone who had some connection with him.

nAlthough it was just a quick glance, he could still recall that the girl in front of him had some connection with Xu Xiaoshou.

nIt seemed that the information might have been wrong. Someone who walked out of the Spirit Palace with Xu Xiaoshou must have had a closer connection with him.

n“You three, get out of here!”

nXiao Sixteen came before the three swordsmen and waved his hand disdainfully at them.

n“Are you the person this girl is waiting for?”

nGu Qingyi sniffed with his nose and failed to smell any odor of Sword Telepathy from the guy. He couldn’t help but frown.

nHow could a person like him cultivate Sword Telepathy?

nAlthough the person in front of him had the aura of a master, Gu Qingyi thought that he, someone nearly at Master Stage, had defeated many opponents.

nJudging by his age and appearance…

nIf he was the person he was looking for, he would be immensely disappointed.

nLooking at the three flaunting swordsmen, Xiao Sixteen shook his head with a sneer.

nHe thought, “An Innate is an Innate. No matter how many swords you put on your back, you’re still garbage!”

n“Yes. What do you guys want from my junior sister?”

nHearing this, Mu Zixi was flabbergasted, wondering why he claimed to be his senior brother.

nThis guy was not Xu Xiaoshou.

nShe opened her small mouth slightly in an attempt to speak, but she suddenly found that she couldn’t say a word.

nThe master?

nThe power of heaven and earth?

nThe little girl’s pupils shrank as she grew more panicked.

nXiao Sixteen turned around at the right time and gently patted Mu Zixi’s conical hat. “Junior Sister, don’t say anything. Let your senior brother deal with them.”

nMu Zixi was shocked.

n“Killer!”

n“This is the real killer!”

nShe wanted to move and talk but found that her body was confined.

nShe thought that she, at the peak of Origin Court Stage, would have a chance to resist an assassin in the Occupied Void Stage.

nBut the Master…

n“Are you kidding me?” she wondered.

n“Are all of Xu Xiaoshou’s enemies at the Master Stage now?”

nMu Zixi wanted to call for help, but her line of sight was blocked by the body of the person in front of her. Thus, she couldn’t send an eye signal.

nXiao Sixteen stood before the girl and said with a sneer, “You three, if there is really nothing wrong, please go away.”

nGu Qingyi frowned and didn’t say anything.

nHe felt that something was odd.

nThe person in front of him was not the one he was seeking. That person had Sword Telepathy.

n“Is this man concealing his cultivation level?”

nGu Qingyi dismissed the idea before it could even form because he believed that no one could conceal one’s temperament and something like that.

nAs long as this man had cultivated Sword Telepathy, it was impossible for him not to perceive it.

nHad he failed to smell it?

nThinking it over, Gu Qingyi narrowed his eyes slightly and took a step back. “Sorry for the disturbance.”

n“Get lost!” Xiao Sixteen rebuked.
