Along with the brocade-clothed youth, there were also a few armored and steady-breathing warriors who entered the courtyard.
Xu Han's eyes narrowed. With a single glance, he could tell that these armored warriors were extraordinary, and that youth was an old acquaintance of his.
Lin Kai!
"Oh! Isn't this Young Master Xu?" When Xu Han saw Lin Kai, Lin Kai naturally saw Xu Han as well. The brocade-clothed youth's face immediately revealed a familiar expression. As he spoke, he walked towards Xu Han.
However, Xu Han ignored the other party's enthusiastic greeting. He looked at Lin Kai without changing his expression, his expression as cold as a statue.
Lin Kai had long anticipated his fate. He wasn't angry, instead, he smiled and sat beside Song Yueming.
Song Yueming also smelled the smell of gunpowder between the two of them. He smiled and hurriedly said, "I was originally going to bring Brother Lin to see Senior Sister. After all, the Dao Discussion Conference is about to start. She and Brother Lin are promised by Master. Naturally, it would be safest for the two of them to meet once." "However, when I heard Brother Lin mention that he is Brother Xu's old friend, I took the initiative to bring him over. Please don't be outsiders, Brother Xu."
Hearing this, Xu Han turned his head to look at the smiling purple-clothed youth. His gaze was as bright as a torch, as if he wanted to see through the youth. However, the result he obtained was the same as last time. He was no longer able to truly know what the youth was thinking.
"How can we meet outside? Brother Song, I don't know. Brother Xu and I don't know each other. I just didn't expect Brother Xu and I to be jealous of each other. In the end, we didn't have a beauty in our arms. Instead, we ended up like this." Lin Kai said coldly. His tone was filled with ridicule and sarcasm.
"Are you Lin Kai who wants to marry Fang Ziyu?" Xu Han remained unmoved by Lin Kai's mockery and instead asked.
Hearing this, Lin Kai raised his head and agreed.
"Right, right, it's Brother Lin." But before he could say anything, Song Yueming, who was beside him, received the conversation with extreme enthusiasm. "Brother Lin is the son of Lin Li, the Imperial Envoy of the Azure Dragon Division of the Long Night Division. He can be said to be a phoenix amongst dragons. He is not a match for Second Senior Sister, who is called a golden boy and jade girl. If nothing unexpected happens, we will arrange an engagement with Senior Martial Uncle Ye at the Dao Discussion Conference a few days from now in front of all the heroes of Great Zhou."
Lin Kai, who was at the side, was originally a little dissatisfied with Song Yueming's words, but hearing his words, the compliments that could be heard very close to him made Lin Kaitian happy. The reason he came here was to humiliate Xu Han. The better Song Yueming said, the better his goal would be. Hence, the smile on Lin Kai's face became even more intense when he heard these words.
'"Brother Song, you praise me ridiculously. I'm also lucky. I can't compare to Brother Xu" Lin Kai said with a face full of emotion. However, before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted again.
At that time, Xu Han suddenly opened his mouth and asked indifferently.
"What if something unexpected happens?"
Song Yueming subconsciously replied, "An accident? Naturally, it will be delayed …" However, he quickly reacted. "How could there be an accident in the Exquisite Pavilion? Brother Xu, what happened here?" He said hurriedly with a surprised expression.
However, before he could finish speaking, Xu Han's foot suddenly turned into a leg whip and fiercely swung out.
A loud explosion erupted, and the stone bench beneath Lin Kai was shattered into pieces by Xu Han's leg whip. Lin Kai naturally couldn't help but be affected. His body trembled and he flew backwards.
Seeing this, the soldiers who had come with him hurriedly went forward to catch Lin Kai, who was flying backwards. The remaining five quickly walked to Xu Han, and with a clang of their long sabers, they drew their sheaths and pointed at Xu Han in bright light.
For a moment, killing intent pervaded Xiao Xuan's window.
Xu… Brother Xu… This is… Song Yueming stammered as he looked at Xu Han. He said this, but there wasn't much surprise on his face. "What are you doing?"
"An unidentified villain brought a soldier to break into my small porch window. I will punish him slightly, so I don't need to trouble Hall Master Song to help me." Xu Han stood up and cupped his hands towards Song Yueming. Then, he glanced at the murderous soldiers and said. "As for these soldiers, if I retreat now, I will let bygones be bygones. Otherwise, if I enter the Threatening Sect with a saber, I think the Sword Hall would have nothing to say if I were to execute them on the spot."
"Brother Xu, what are you talking about? Brother Lin was brought here by me. What's going on with the villain? Besides, he even said that he was your old friend." Song Yueming hurriedly stepped forward to meet Xu Han and the guard.
"Oh? But I have never had such an old friend. It seems that this villain is extremely cunning. Even Hall Master Song has been tricked." Xu Han said confidently.
"Deacon Xu, right?" At this moment, the tallest person in the group suddenly spoke. His appearance was hidden under the black armor. Xu Han and the others could not see his appearance clearly, but his voice was dull, as if a blunt weapon was hitting a golden stone.
"The Longevity Division is not a vegetarian place. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to deal with."
"An explanation?" Xu Han glanced sideways at the soldiers. "What explanation?"
'"You injured Young Master Lin. This matter has caused the younger ones to lose their protection. If the younger ones want to hand over their jobs, they can only …" The guard paused for a moment before his voice suddenly turned gloomy and cold. "Young Master Xu, please remove one of your arms."
Hearing this, Xu Han raised his eyebrows and replied coldly, "Then let's try."
As soon as he said that.
The leading soldier's saber trembled, and the four people behind him suddenly moved. They wrapped Xu Han in an extremely clever position, sealing off all of Xu Han's escape routes.
Xu Han narrowed his eyes, and a cold light shone in his eyes.
These five warriors were supposed to be subordinates of the Long Night Division, but Xu Han seemed to have somewhat familiar with the battle formation they formed. It was quite similar to the battle formation he had learned in the Asura Field.
Of course, this wasn't the time to think about it. Xu Han understood this point, so he quickly suppressed the chaotic thoughts in his heart. His brows sank, and the 365 acupoints in his body started to circulate crazily to resist the attacks that the group of armored warriors could launch at any time.
"Misunderstanding, misunderstanding." At that time, Song Yueming quickly stood in front of everyone. "Brother Xu and this big brother, this is a misunderstanding. I guess Brother Lin recognized the wrong person. Brother Xu thought that it was a villain who entered. If not, everyone should give me some face. How about we let this matter go?"
"Forget it? Young Master Lin is injured to such an extent, why don't you let me do it?" The leading soldier asked in a calm voice. Obviously, he was extremely displeased with Song Yueming's arrangement.
"You can't blame Brother Xu for this." Song Yueming smiled apologetically and said, "Look, when I came here, I said that this Linglong Pavilion's mountain gate is very safe. Don't wear armor and knives. If you don't believe me, then Brother Xu will misunderstand. I'm telling you fairly, there's something wrong with everyone's swords and swords. Isn't it beautiful if something big happens to them?"
"Does Hall Master Song treat us as fools? Do you really not know if Young Master Lin and Xu Han know each other?" Hearing this, the soldier's voice suddenly turned cold. How could he not hear the partiality in Song Yueming's words at this time?
"What does this big brother mean? Does Young Master Lin and Brother Xu know each other? How would I know?" Song Yueming frowned and looked at the soldier in front of him in confusion. Then, his voice sank, "Besides, this is the Exquisite Pavilion, not your Chang'an City."
"Hall Master Song, are you threatening me?" Jia Shi sneered.
"Song has always been reasonable, but never have the thought of threatening brothers. I just feel that it's better to take Brother Lin to check on his injuries than to argue over who is right and who is wrong. I don't think Brother Lin's condition is too good, but don't delay the engagement for a few days. At that time, Master will blame him … "Song Yueming stopped talking, but his gaze was straight at the soldier.
Under this gaze, the armor-wrapped face of the soldier changed.
Lin Kai was the son of Lin Li, His status was naturally noble, However, their biggest purpose was to help Zhu Longqi complete his engagement with Ye Hongjian. This Song Yueming clearly wanted them to swallow this mute loss. If they were to forcefully start a conflict, not to mention whether they could obtain any benefits, but if it caused Sikong Bai's displeasure, the higher ups would investigate. Not to mention them, even Lord Lin would not be able to bear this responsibility.
Thinking like this, the soldier finally weighed his weight.
He raised his eyes and took a deep look at the purple-clothed youth, then arched his hands.
"I have learned how to treat guests in the Linglong Pavilion." After saying that, he looked around and shouted, "Let's go!"
As a result, the group dragged the unconscious young master Lin out of the small porch window.
…
Wait until the group is far away.
Song Yueming turned to look at Xu Han and shook his head helplessly.
"Brother Xu, you've caused a huge mess for me."
"Is that so?" Hearing this, Xu Han glanced at him and slowly sat back on the stone bench. "Doesn't Hall Master Song want this kind of trouble?"
Hearing his words, Song Yueming did not refute, but smiled noncommittally. At that time, he sat down at the stone table, picked up a cup of tea and drank it all.
"Young Master Lin is seriously injured and can't wake up. It looks like Second Senior Sister's marriage will be delayed."
As he said that, he curled his lips again. "This is something that I managed to arrange for Second Senior Sister with great difficulty. What a pity."
Hearing this, Xu Han raised his eyebrows. Fang Ziyu's marriage was a bit strange. Now that he heard Song Yueming's words, he knew that he was the one who interfered.
"Brother Xu, what do you think of this marriage arranged by me for Senior Sister Song?"
At that time, Xu Han turned his head and looked deeply at the purple-clothed youth in front of him. After a while, he spat out a voice from his mouth.
"That's right."
He said this and even nodded seriously.
The youth who had received such a reply smiled.
He stood up and said, "If something like this happens, I'm afraid Master will have to go down and ask again. I won't disturb Brother Xu anymore."
"I won't send you far away either." Xu Han also stood up and said.
"Yes." Song Yueming nodded and walked out.
When he reached the gate of the courtyard, he seemed to have suddenly thought of something and turned to look at Xu Han.
"By the way, Brother Xu, the various sects have come these days. The Sword Hall is busy with its affairs. Brother Xu, don't cause any trouble for me."
After saying that, the purple-clothed youth blinked his eyes before turning around and leaving in peace of mind.
