In front of him was a hall that was around the size of three great halls that Lee Xun had seen before. If one were to say what difference it would have, it would be that the surroundings were very quiet, with no one entering or exiting. It was unlike the three halls where there were many Dongting Sword Sect disciples.
Lee Xun originally thought that the place where the s of the Dongting Sword Sect resided would be filled with grandeur and grandeur, but he never expected that it would be so ordinary.
"Lee Xun, go in yourself. Master should be inside the hall. The little miss and I will wait for you to come out."
Just as Lee Xun wanted to nod his head, he heard Zixing say, "No, I want to go with big brother."
Lee Xun looked to the side and saw that it was difficult for him, so he said: "Senior Fu Tong, Xing is very obedient. When we were talking earlier, you and I should have noticed it. Also, since Xing is so cute, Senior Tian Xing would definitely like it too. "
He was naturally able to tell that Zixing had the strength of the twelfth stage at such a young age, but with the example of Lee Xun, he did not think too much about Zixing's strength. It was just that Zhou Tian Xing had said that he wanted to see Lee Xun, so he did not dare to disobey his master's words.
Just as Zhou Tian was feeling troubled, he heard a voice from Zhou Tian Xing. "Fu Tong, let them come in together."
With the permission of Tian Xing, Lee Xun dragged Little Zixing to the main hall of the Heaven's Path Palace. There were no decorations in the hall, making it seem very spacious. Seeing that Zhou Tian Xing was smiling at him, Lee Xun cupped his hands and greeted: "Kid Lee Xun greets Senior Tian Xing."
"There is no need for formality. Although the age difference between us is great, your future achievements will definitely be above mine. "
"Senior, you flatter me." May I know what senior has brought me here for? "
"Firstly, I have to thank you and your master's wife for giving Xu Xiu such a great gift."
"Hehe, although the gift is good, the most important thing is still Senior Xu Xiu herself."
"Lee Xun, your master Baili Hong, I have met him twice. The first time was at the Sword Sect of the North Sea, and he had only just reached the level of Earth Rank Peak then. The second time we met was about thirty years ago, when he came here to fight with me. However, I lost the match after exchanging three moves with him. Now that I have received news of him again, it turns out that he fostered such an outstanding disciple like you. This really makes me blush a little. " Zhou Tianxing seemed to be deeply moved. Back then, when Baili Hong came to the Swordsoul Island, he was also the Heaven Rank Rankers. Over a hundred years have passed, and he was not only surpassed by Baili Hong, but he is also far inferior to the current Baili Hong in terms of teaching disciples as well.
Lee Xun did not know how to reply, and could only smile.
"Let's not talk about this anymore. It will only add to our worries. I heard that the reason why you came to my Dongting Sword Sect this time around is to propose marriage to your junior brothers. I have already told Xu Xiu and I will do my best to facilitate this matter. Zhou Tianxing had been in command of his Dongting Sword Sect for over a hundred years and had experienced far too many things.
Lee Xun never thought that the marriage proposal for Lu Tuan and the other three would go so smoothly, even Zhou Tian Xing had asked for it, but after thinking about it, Baili Hong and Baili Feng had already participated in it, and felt that it was nothing much.
"Then, I'll thank Senior on behalf of the four of them. However, there is one more thing that I hope senior will agree on. " Originally, Lee Xun wanted Xu Xiu to help him convince the situation to become useless, but if he couldn't, he would use Baili Hong's identity to pressure others. However, this was a bit of bullying, after all, this was someone else's territory. Seeing that Zhou Tian Xing was being so amiable, it would not be a problem to ask for Qin Shuang.
"Go ahead."
"Senior Xu Que has a disciple named Qin Shuang, who is my master's Baili Clan. This time, I am following my master's name and hope to bring Qin Shuang back."
"Qin Shuang? I have a good impression of that little fellow. It's no wonder why he would not let him go, despite the fact that he's a good seedling. "
"Senior, I wonder if we can give my master some face and let Qin Shuang leave with us."
"Hehe, I just can't not give it to you even if I want to. And just based on the letter that Xu Xiu received, even if it's three Qin Shuang s, I will still let them go. You don't have to worry about this, I will tell you what to do. "
Lee Xun was very happy that the two goals had been achieved. The two of them chatted for a long time. When Zhou Tian Xing asked Lee Xun about Lee Xun's views on Dongting Sword Sect, Lee Xun told him everything that she had seen and heard along the way as well as her own thoughts.
For example, the matter of the Dongting Sword Sect taking taxes from various nations every year and every three years on other Sword Sect, Lee Xun thought that was very unreasonable. But Zhou Tian Xing said something else, which surprised Lee Xun.
So it turned out that the matter of collecting taxes was not imposed by the Dongting Sword Sect itself. It was probably from two thousand and five hundred years ago, when the situation in the east was extremely chaotic. Various large and small kingdoms went to war year after year, and various Sword Sect killed each other as well. In the end, a few small kingdoms and Sword Sect asked for help from the Dongting Sword Sect. Slowly, with the Dongting Sword Sect at the center, they formed a group, and in the end, settled the war and the disputes between the various nations, as well as the Sword Sect. During this process, the nation as well as Sword Sect would pay tribute to the Dongting Sword Sect every year, and in the end, gradually formed the current system. Ten percent of the national treasury's income had never changed. However, it was not reasonable for the Sword Sect to only increase or decrease their income. As for Tian Xing's explanation, it was to promote the natural survival and elimination of the various Sword Sect. Otherwise, it would only lead to new strife and killing amongst the Sword Sect.
Lee Xun also noticed this point. On the way, other than hearing about the battle between Dongting Sword Sect, he didn't really see any other battles between Sword Sect. However, it was different in the south as battles between different Sword Sect would often occur. It could only be said that every family had their own problems and their own circumstances were different as well. Dongting Sword Sect was a way to protect the balance of the Eastern Region, and it had its own abilities as well. However, within the Dongting Sword Sect, there were many areas that people were unsatisfied with when it was actually implemented. Moreover, the people below had mixed character and character, which further increased their dissatisfaction with the tradition they had left behind.
However, Lee Xun still didn't feel that he had to change everything. The development of history had its own rules.
"Lee Xun, this little lady should be a Spiritual Beast."
"Senior is right, Zixing's original form is that of a Purple Spirit Fire Fox."
"Purple Spirit Fire Fox, a top-notch existence in the Spiritual Beast family. I never thought that there would actually be Purple Spirit Fire Fox here on our Swordsoul Island. " Knowing that the cute Little Zixing was a Purple Spirit Fire Fox, Zhou Tian Xing couldn't help but take a few more glances.
"Senior, I've always had something I don't understand. Senior Xu Xiu and the others have seen Xing before, why have they not asked me? "
This isn't strange, they actually don't even know much about Spiritual Beast s. At most, they only felt a little bit of spirit energy from Zixing's body. Some people were born with a lot of spiritual energy and their cultivation speed was extremely fast. That was why they didn't sense anything was wrong. Furthermore, with your Earth Rank at such a young age, there is nothing strange about a person who has reached the twelfth step in his teens appearing beside you.
Lee Xun finally understood that in the human world of Swordsoul Island, there was no need to worry about anyone discovering Zixing's identity.
