The pair of crystal clear eyes were filled with confidence. Gu Gang and his wife looked at each other and nodded slightly. Both of them had one hope in their hearts, and that was to obtain that legendary leaf grass that could bring death and save Lou Lan Xi's life.

He was dressed in a boy's outfit, with a crown on his head and snow-white clothes. Feng Er's lips turned red and her teeth turned white, and her facial features became more handsome.

"Hehe …" I didn't expect our Feng'er to be so free and easy in dressing up as a man! Usually, when women dress up as men, they are either too feminine or too weak. Our Feng'er is actually suitable for both genders. Not bad, not bad! " Lou Lan Xi, who was dressing up for Feng'er, looked at his disciple's handsome and elegant appearance and couldn't even close his mouth from laughing.

Walking out of the courtyard, when Gu Gang saw his disciple like this, his eyes lit up. He nodded slightly to Lou Lan Xi, who was standing behind her. Both of their eyes were filled with excitement and pride.

"The literary test, Jiang An's Lou Gang wins."

Once the match on the stage ended, the couple below the stage looked over in joy. Victory over them was something he had long thought of. Not too far away, a man also dressed in white stood at the periphery with a calm expression. He indifferently looked at the person on the stage who revealed a faint confident smile, and gently waved the folding fan in his hand. Let's go, these Three Leaves Grass are good stuff, let's go get one as well! "

"Mother, here!" After stepping down from the stage, Feng'er gave the clover in her hands to Lou Lan Xi.

She didn't expect that the competition would be so smooth and that the competition would be so difficult. To her, this wasn't a difficult matter at all.

Lou Lan Xi took the expensive clover and handed it over to Gu Gang. Let's go, son, it's time for us to go back! "

Pouting, "No, I want to challenge the array again!"

Gu Gang frowned. Both of them were already worried about winning a championship. After all, although Feng Er was only a man's makeup, she felt that it wasn't very good for a woman to show her face outside.

Lou Lan Xi was more enlightened than Gu Gang. Scratching his sleeve, "Brother Gu, let her be! "There are many people who are studying formations here, and there are also many scholars in the martial arts world. Feng Er might not win."

The five empires had been in constant war for years, and as time passed, military tactics formations were spread throughout the martial arts world. There were those in the martial arts world who had dedicated their lives to studying and developing their own experiences.

Feng'er had only read a few spell formations, so she hadn't studied them seriously. It would be difficult to win in this competition.

Seeing that Gu Gang was still hesitating, Feng Er also interrupted, "Daddy, don't worry. I just want to see the array that other people have set up. As for victory, he really hadn't thought about it. However, I would also like to verify with you how much stronger I, who study by myself, am able to get in the competition! "

So his daughter was thinking this way, Gu Gang felt relieved. The family of three squeezed their way towards the formation once more.

The competition would be a one-man show, a total of five matches. Two people against one another. Whoever won first would enter the next battle. Feng Er successfully entered the third match. The further one walked, the harder it was to meet his opponent. In the third round of the competition, Feng Er took two hours to finish compared to the scholarly man who was in his forties.

The thing that struck her the most was that, on the other side, a man who was only a few years older than her, actually entered the next battle in less than ten minutes.

In the fourth match, the boy went on stage first, so Feng'er had the leisure to watch him fight.

He was dressed in faded clothes, which made him look even more calm and collected. For the first time, Feng Er had a whole new level of respect for him. Her intuition told her that this man would be the first in this competition.

Seemingly sensing Feng Er's gaze, that man raised his head to look at her indifferently. That gaze actually made it so that Feng'er couldn't even breathe. This man, how old was he?

It was as if nothing in the world entered his eyes, and he could see through everything in the world. A pair of beautiful single phoenix eyes as deep as the sea, but also seems to be indifferent. Just a casual glance but he felt like he was able to see through her.

In the past, there had been people who had praised her for her maturity, or perhaps she had been a mischievous person. However, compared to this man in front of her, Feng'er now knew that she was nothing at all. He, was the true mature and deeper.

Lou Lan Xi's hand, which was tightly clutching Lou Lan Xi, suddenly clenched. Lou Lan Xi was looking with great interest at the competition on the other side when his disciple's unusual behavior suddenly pulled her back.

He raised his eyes and looked at her doubtfully, only to discover that his disciple's face had tensed up as she stared blankly at the stage. Following the direction of his gaze, he discovered that it was the young boy from the previous matches.

Previously, because he and Feng'er had competed on stage together, Lou Lan Xi hadn't paid much attention to it. But now, with a single glance, he couldn't help but be shocked. This was because this boy gave her a strong sense of familiarity. Moreover, the matureness and steadiness that should not have existed in him made her feel even more aghast.

Gu Gang, who was still watching the other two old geezers fight, lightly pulled Gu Gang, "Brother Gu, that little brother in the stands …"

The shocked Lou Lan Xi and his trembling body made Gu Gang wonder endlessly. He also raised his head to look up, but what he saw on the stage was a young boy a few years old, who was lowered his head and calmly engaged in battle. Looking at his calm and indifferent expression, it was as if he was in control of thousands of men and horses.

This calmness and calmness was the first thing to convince him. But why would his wife fear him?

While he was still wondering, the match had already ended. Ten minutes, it had only taken another ten minutes. This boy, in the fourth round, had actually still finished with ten minutes with ease. Shouts and exclamations rang out from below the stage, but the boy only calmly glanced at the audience. His gaze swept across the Gu family members as if he was doing it on purpose.

When Gu Gang saw his facial features and eyes, his head also exploded. He stopped breathing, and his face turned ugly. The feeling of his heart beating rapidly and his fear and uneasiness once again madly assaulted him.

It seemed that when he saw the boy's gaze sweeping over him, a trace of cold ridicule flashed across his eyes. Gu Gang's heart stopped for a second again. This boy was too terrifying!

How could that look be something a child of his age should have!" When she looked again, she saw that there was a faint smile on his face. That innocent look, no matter how you looked at it, was the expression of a child a few years old. A look of triumph.

"Son, come down. Daddy is so happy for you when he sees you win so victoriously!" Looking at him walking towards a man in his forties with a smile, Gu Gang's suspicions disappeared. It seemed that he was overthinking it. This person should not be the boy that he didn't want to think about in his memories.

Lou Lan Xi had also been looking at him. Now that he saw that man address him as his son, his heart felt a bit more at ease.

After the incident at Wu Village, the reason why the husband and wife left their post was because once they closed their eyes, they would recall the time when they led those people into Wu Village.

The people of Wu Village were all people that gathered wisdom and existed in this world. They killed all those people that possessed vast knowledge. The uneasiness in their hearts grew day by day. Because of this uneasiness, the two of them could no longer stay in the imperial court.

Now, when they saw that man whose facial features were similar to those of the young boy from before, the memories that they were the most unwilling to recall were once again hooked onto him.

Back at the inn, the couple got together.

They glanced at each other, then laughed bitterly.

Lou Lan Xi said, "Brother Gu, will there be retribution? Even after escaping for so many years, we are still unable to escape the shadow of that year's massacre of the village! "

Gu Gang replied, "That's right. The past has always been a shadow in our hearts. Countless nights when I slept, I would think of that paradise village. The people there, in fact, are not in the world, but we have made a move against them. The most disturbing thing is that they are also the smartest and most prodigious people in the world. " Closing his eyes, Gu Gang seemed to recall the people from that village.

Lou Lan Xi also smiled with an expression of desolation. "That's right, if it weren't for those things ordinary people don't know about, they wouldn't have gotten themselves killed. Actually, Brother Gu, we don't need to blame ourselves, because even if we don't kill those people, the King will send someone else to kill them. "

To put it bluntly, Lou Lan Xi's words always hit the truth.

But Gu Gang still looked sad after hearing that. "Actually, we can totally use another method. However, we still complied with the King's orders. Back then, if my faction sent one of those Witch Village people, I believe that with their intelligence, they would have been able to escape from the King's slaughter. However, we didn't do that at the time. We had the boy take us in. "Think back to when I did this kind of thing all those years ago. It was truly a pity that it was too late!"

Deceiving the little boy was also the pain in Lou Lan Xi's heart. Now, when she heard him mention it, she began to cough uncomfortably.

Looking at his wife coughing, Gugu knew that she should not mention these memories in front of her beloved wife.

Lou Lan Xi humbly patted her chest. It was only after a long while that Lou Lan Xi finally calmed down. Brother Gu … I'm really fine, just that when you mentioned that boy, I remembered that we exterminated all the villagers that year. Did you notice the body of the boy? "

Gu Gang's hand that was patting Lan Xi suddenly stopped. His eyes focused as the uneasy feeling in his heart once again became violent. He squinted his eyes and tried his best to recall the past. He tried to think of every single detail, yet he could not recall the corpse of that child.

"Lou Lan Xi's eyes contracted as he looked at her. A sharp light flashed past at high speed." "No, I can't remember seeing that person's body!"

Lou Lan Xi's expression became serious as well. There was an itch in her throat, but she held it in. Brother Gu, it looks like we need to go back to that ancient village and inspect it. "If we do not investigate this matter clearly, we will not be able to remain calm."

Gu Gang smiled sadly, "Inattentive, such a big negligence. Cutting the grass without leaving a root and rebirth in spring, it's useless even if we go back." After all these years, the corpses couldn't possibly still be waiting for us to investigate. Besides, how could we identify the many boys under the age of ten who died at our hands? Forget it, I will think of a way to deal with this matter. Send Phuong back first. I don't think we'll have time to go sightseeing here! "
