This was all a long story. The two of them had once agreed that if Dongfang Qi were to inherit the position of Villa Master, then he would be loyal to his best friend, the Southern Summoning Nation's Fourth Prince and Shi Jinchen.

However, the world was unpredictable. Who could have imagined it? It turned out that the Thousand Sword Villa had long been implicated by the crown prince, and was precisely the Dongfang Qi's father.

In those few years at the Thousand Sword Villa, Dongfang Qi had always strived to clean up the forces in the manor. In order to fulfill his promise back then, he couldn't remember how many people he had offended, and how many people his subordinates had stained themselves with the fresh blood of their fellow sect members.

All the disciples and elders who had disobeyed him or insisted on allying with the Crown Prince had all been secretly disposed of by him. Now, there was only a branch under him that was loyal to him. And the Dongfang Qi this time, was not only to go out to play. His ultimate goal was actually to go to the capital to look for Shi Jinchen and make his stand in front of this old friend that he had not had a chance to meet for many years.

"What? Nothing to say?" Shi Jinchen looked at the lowered head in silence and sneered. Actually, he had almost forgotten about that agreement many years ago. He still clearly remembered that the letters he sent to the Thousand Sword Villa were like stones that sank into the ocean, never to be heard from again. From then on, he understood that relying on others was better than relying on yourself.

"I haven't forgotten." Dongfang Qi raised his head and said resolutely.

"Oh?" Shi Jinchen glanced at him, "If you hadn't forgotten, why have you not heard from him for an entire four years? Do you know, I even suspect that you never opened any of the letters that I wrote to you that year. "

"Of course I have." Dongfang Qi smiled bitterly as he looked towards Shi Jinchen, "I know that I have let you down at that time, but the affairs of the manor are really too busy …"

"What a busy day." Xiao Sui interrupted him with a smile, and spoke gently to Xiao Sui at the side: "Then we won't disturb Villa Owner Dongfang, then. Xiao Sui, after packing our things, we will return to the capital, as for the reward for saving our lives, if Villa Owner Dongfang feels that it's not enough, you can follow us back to our residence and take whatever you want."

"Brother Jin Chen …" Dongfang Qi felt a little salty in his mouth. He had just met a good friend that he hadn't seen for many years and was being treated so coldly, which really made him feel uncomfortable.

Seeing that the Shi Jinchen was unmoved, he cast his pleading gaze towards the Ke Yuehua s at the side. Ke Yuehua had originally thought that there must have been some sort of misunderstanding between the two of them, but seeing how Dongfang Qi was lowering its position and looking down on him, its tone also slowed down, and it said to him, "Villa Master Dongfang, just speak your mind." Then, she looked at Shi Jinchen who was secretly angry at the side, "Fourth Prince is not an unreasonable person, and in my opinion, there might have been a misunderstanding."

When Shi Jinchen heard his words, he couldn't help but prick up his ears. Actually, regarding Dongfang Qi, in his heart, he admired him quite a lot, and also understood that this good friend of his was a straightforward person. He didn't have that many deep thoughts.

Seeing that Shi Jinchen was pretending to be listening attentively, Dongfang Qi organized his words and told the two of them everything that had happened after they returned to the village.

After Dongfang Qi returned, he spent two years to suppress the voices of those who were opposed to him in the manor. Those who were implicated with the crown prince were all kicked out of the villa by him. Fortunately, the crown prince did not pay too much attention to the changes in the Myriad Sword Villa. Every time he sent out a messenger, they would be stopped outside the gates by his Dongfang Qi, which meant that he was not willing to cooperate with the crown prince anymore.

The Crown Prince felt strange, but he did not make things difficult for them, after all, the Thousand Sword Villa was powerful and the Jianghu Sect had it said, there are the Five Mountain Saber Villa in the South, and the Thousand Sword Villa in the North. These two villas are both famous and upright sects with a solid foundation, one could imagine their fame in the martial arts world, and even the Crown Prince would not be easily shaken by them.

Therefore, Dongfang Qi spent another two years to finally arrange the affairs of the manor, and his position as the manor lord became more and more stable. Ordinary people only knew that the Villa Master of the Ten Thousand Sword Villa had extraordinary talent and that he had achieved success, but no one knew how much effort he had put into making this beautiful name.

In the past, there were still voices that opposed him in the manor. However, since his "Great Purge" a year ago, there had not been anyone who dared to disobey him. After that, he accepted a lot of new blood and also organized a sword discussion meeting every year, inviting the major powers of the martial arts world to attend. Afterwards, he accepted a lot of new blood and even held a sword discussion meeting every year, inviting the major powers of the martial arts world to attend. Everyone said that the younger generation was fearsome, but this Young Villa Master of the Thousand Sword Villa was truly worthy of a new level of respect.

After saying this, Dongfang Qi looked straight at the Shi Jinchen that was deep in thought beside him: "I have indeed not deceived you, Brother Jin Chen, these past few years, I have been thinking of a way to get the Villa out of the crown prince's control, and I have even spent my own money to hold a Sword Discourse Assembly every year." He paused for a moment after saying this, "I had originally planned to go to the Thousand Sword Pavilion to look for you after finishing everything I had under my command, but my subordinate said that you had left a long time ago. After I asked around, I found out that you had returned to the Imperial Court after leaving and stayed in the capital to work for the Imperial Court for the past few years.

"So, it's true that you're trying to curry favor with me, and it's false that you saved me?" As Shi Jinchen listened to the explanation of the Dongfang Qi, the depressed feeling from just a moment ago had turned a little bit clear.

"Wh, what are you fawning on?" I, as the dignified Young Villa Master of the Thousand Sword Villa, have only been flattered by others, and have never fawned over others! " Dongfang Qi cleared his throat a few more times, "Is this making a friend or not, making a friend!"

Ke Yuehua's bright eyes couldn't help but reveal a hint of a smile: These two are interesting. Then, she looked at the Dongfang Qi which was curling its lips in anger, "Then, Brother Dongfang, are you interrupting your journey back to the capital with us?"

"What Big Brother Dongfang, why does Xiao Sui sound so intimate to him? Obviously, you two have only known each other for half a day …" After he finished speaking, he looked at the little thing that had unknowingly sneaked into his arms again, and used his eyes to signal the Dongfang Qi to take it away.

Therefore, Dongfang Qi smiled bitterly as he went forward and ignored "Little Coal Ball" 's Meow Meow Life Stealing Fist, and pulled it out of Ke Yuehua' arms. He always felt that after so many years, this friend of his had changed a lot. In the past, he was cold, unsmiling, and even a little obsessed with cleanliness. But now … It felt even more childish.
