Volume 10 Chapter 79

Xing Feng Tang? Everyone in the Shura Sect frowned, and even if they thought about it, they couldn't remember hearing about the latest chapter of this gang.

The girl snorted softly and said bluntly: "Since you don't want to reveal your true identity, we won't force you. However, as far as I know, there are not many people who practice the inner sect's dark spiritual martial arts. I only know one, That is the king. The king’s surname is Tang, and your surname is Tang. I wonder what your relationship is with the king?”

The latest chapter of What a Smart Woman! A flash of surprise flashed in Tang Yin's eyes, but it disappeared immediately. He looked at the girl with a smile and asked, "You haven't asked her her name yet?"

The girl said calmly: "Yan Xi."

This name is quite strange, and it doesn't sound like a woman's name. Tang Yin asked again: "I wonder if Miss Yan is in Shuramen..."

The girl didn't need to answer. The spiritual cultivators on the side said in unison: "Master of the Silver Fir Sect."

Tang Yin was confused when he heard this. He didn't quite understand what the position of the Yinshan Sect Master was, but he thought he must have a high status.

The structure of Shura Sect is different from other sects. There are four sect masters at the same time, arranged in the order of gold, silver, bronze, iron and iron. The Shura Sect is very mobile, including the sect master, who often goes out and disappears without a trace. Among the four sect masters, whoever is in the sect is in charge. If there are multiple people in the sect, the sect master who is in front will be Head of house.

Yan Xi is the master of Yin Shan Sect, also known as Yin Er. To put it bluntly, he is the second master of Shura Sect.

Tang Yin didn't know the inside story, but he didn't ask any more questions. He nodded with a smile and said, "I have nothing to do with the king. We just happen to have the same surname and happen to be practicing the inner sect's secret spiritual martial arts."

Yan Xi took a deep look at him and curled his lips, obviously dissatisfied with his answer, but he couldn't clearly tell what was wrong. She changed the topic and asked: "You said you came here to follow the night travelers?"

"Yes!"

"Why are you following him?"

"The rangers gathered in Laiyang City have been assassinated one after another recently. Isn't Clan Master Yan curious?" Tang Yin asked.

It was reasonable for him to say so. Yan Xi was silent for a moment and said seriously: "This place is a branch of our Shura Sect. Your Excellency broke in without permission and has violated our Shura Sect's taboo. I don't think you know what's going on. Let's forget it. If you don't do it again next time, If you offend, you will have no way out!" As she spoke, she turned and walked towards the inner courtyard.

Looking at her leaving figure, Tang Yin couldn't help but chuckle. He secretly thought to himself that this woman was so arrogant. He didn't know what her relationship was with Hou Ge, the leader of Shura Sect. As soon as Yan Xi left, the spiritual cultivators gathered nearby also quickly dispersed. Finally, only two people were left, standing on one side of Tang Yin, apparently to monitor his departure.

Tang Yin did not want to stay in the place of right and wrong for long, and quickly left the mansion under the escort of two Shuramen masters. When he came out, Tang Yin turned around to look at this seemingly ordinary house that was actually home to many spiritual martial arts masters. He also let out a long sigh, secretly thinking that it was so dangerous! If he hadn't restrained the Yinshan Sect Master in time, it would have been impossible to escape today.

He shook his head with a wry smile, briefly identified the direction of the inn, and then returned the same way. He hadn't gone far when he heard rapid footsteps behind him. When he turned around, he saw that it was the gentle young man named Shitou who was chasing after him quickly. He stopped and waited for the young man to approach him, then asked with a smile: "Brother Shi, what's wrong?"

The gentle young man was stunned for a moment and said, "Stone is just my nickname. My name is Shen Shu."

"Oh!" Tang Yin changed his words and said, "It's Brother Shen! I wonder what Brother Shen wants from me?"

"I'm here to say thank you to Brother Tang!"

"thank?"

"Brother Tang did not harm my sect leader."

"Haha!" Tang Yin laughed and said, "Brother Shen is serious, this is just a misunderstanding!"

"No matter what, I still want to say thank you to Brother Tang." Shen Shu insisted and bowed deeply.

Seeing this, Tang Yin could understand why his nickname was Shitou. Although he looked gentle, he had a very tough temper. This is quite similar to myself. Tang Yin admired Shen Shu very much. He raised his eyes and looked around, and saw a lantern hanging at the door of a tavern not far away. He raised his head and said, "Brother Shen, there is a tavern over there. How about we go have a drink?"

"this……"

Shen Shu seemed a little hesitant, and Tang Yin immediately added: "I'll be the host."

Recalling that when he was in the teahouse, he couldn't even pay a few copper coins for tea. Shen Shu's old face suddenly turned red, and he smiled awkwardly at Tang Yin and said, "I can still afford a few drinks." While speaking, he also subconsciously touched his chest.

Tang Yin smiled and added four more words to Shen Shu's personality: face-saving!

This tavern is not big, it only has one floor, and there are not many tables inside. It is old and shabby. It is late at night, and there are no customers in the tavern. The shopkeeper has also gone to bed, and only one waiter is left napping.

After Tang Yin and Shen Shu sat down in the tavern, the waiter woke up from his sleep, walked forward lazily, and asked, "What would you two guests like to drink?"

"What other food and drinks are there? Just bring some." Tang Yin was not picky and said casually.

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment." The waiter turned around and left. Not long after, he brought over two pots of braised rice, a stack of peanuts, and a plate of beef with soy sauce.

Tang Yin and Shen Shu chatted while eating and drinking. "Isn't the head of your sect the head of the Hou Gehou sect? When did he become the head of the Yan sect?" Tang Yin was the first to express his doubts.

Shen Shu smiled and briefly told the story about the four sect masters of Shura Sect. This is not considered a secret of the Shura Sect, but no one asks about it, and they will not take the initiative to tell anyone about it.

After he finished speaking, Tang Yin suddenly realized and said, "That's it." As he spoke, he looked at Shen Shu again and smiled without saying a word.

Feeling uncomfortable being looked at by him, Shen Shu asked curiously: "Brother Tang?"

Tang Yin said with a smile: "When I restrained Master Yan just now, Brother Shen was willing to trade himself for Master Yan. It was very surprising. If I were really a villain, wouldn't Brother Shen have to lose his life?"

Shen Shu smiled disapprovingly and said calmly: "I'm just a nobody in this sect. Even if I lose my life, it's worth it if I can get the sect leader to be safe."

Tang Yin shook his head and suddenly said: "If I read it correctly, Brother Shen likes this Yan Clan Master very much, right?!"

This sentence stunned Shen Shu. The latter stayed for a moment, subconsciously leaned forward, waved his hands repeatedly, and said: "Brother Tang, don't talk nonsense, I have no bad thoughts towards the sect master..."

Before he could finish speaking, Tang Yin changed the topic and asked, "I wonder what position Brother Shen has in Shura Sect?"

Shen Shu said seriously: "I have already said that I am just a nobody in this sect, not worth mentioning."

Tang Yin blinked and said casually, "If this is the case, it will not be easy for Brother Shen to win this beauty back."

Shen Shu was silent, without saying anything, he picked up the wine bowl and drank most of the bowl of wine in one gulp.

In fact, what Tang Yin said was right. Shen Shu had fallen in love with Yan Xi a long time ago, but the difference in status between the two was too big. Although Shen Shu was superb in martial arts and upright and steady, he could only be regarded as a leader in the Shura Sect. A disciple with a higher status, Yan Xi is Yin Er, the dignified leader of the second sect. It can be said that one of them is in heaven and the other is on earth.

Seeing this scene, Tang Yin said with deep meaning: "Actually, if Brother Shen wants to get a status matching that of Master Yan, it will be easy, as long as Brother Shen is willing to do it."

Shen Shu was stunned and asked, "Brother Tang, what do you mean by this?"

"As the saying goes, if you learn literary and martial arts, you can sell your goods to the emperor's family. I think Brother Shen is very talented in martial arts, and now is the time for the court to hire people. Why don't Brother Shen join the court? When he becomes successful, he can also marry him openly. My favorite woman," Tang Yin said with a smile.

When Shen Shu heard this, his face immediately darkened and he said, "Brother Tang, do you want me to be the court's eagle dog?"

Tang Yin said solemnly: "Shangguan Yuanrang, known as the most powerful general in our Feng Kingdom, was also a ranger. Now he is a general. He has conquered north and south for our country, and has made countless military exploits. Who has ever said that he is a member of the imperial court?" Eagle dog? The theory of eagle dog is pure nonsense. It is a word of jealousy thought up by a ranger who has no ability to be reused by the court. Brother Shen is a smart man, how can he value this statement? "

When he said this, Shen Shu really couldn't think of a word to respond. He was silent for a moment, then raised his head and looked at Tang Yin with strange eyes.

Tang Yin immediately realized that his words were too straightforward. He smiled nonchalantly and said, "Brother Shen, don't get me wrong. I am not a lobbyist for the court. I just admire Brother Shen and want to point out a clear path for Brother Shen."

Shen Shu withdrew his gaze, took another sip of wine, and said quietly: "Actually, the good time for the ranger to seek refuge with the imperial court has already passed..."

When Tang Yin first started his army, that was the best time for the rangers to join the army, because there were many wars at that time, and the rangers also had the power to use force, and could quickly learn the art of war, formations, and how to lead troops in the continuous wars. The door, and then promoted step by step, becoming a captain, a regiment commander, a general, etc., but now, there is no such opportunity. No matter how powerful the Lingwu ranger is, he can only serve as a soldier or a guard. It is difficult for him to join the imperial court. To be reused, having said that, the ranger who has nothing but spiritual martial arts does not have the ability to be reused. This is unacceptable to the ranger who has always been proud and arrogant.

Hearing what he said, Tang Yin could understand Shen Shu's thoughts to a certain extent. He smiled and said nothing and didn't mention the matter anymore. Of course, he didn't want to hold Shen Shu too tightly and make him feel repulsive. In Tang Yin's case, In his eyes, Shen Shu could be used for himself.

He changed the subject and asked: "Brother Shen, in your opinion, who is responsible for the recent consecutive assassinations in Laiyang?"

Shen Shu shook his head and said, "I have no clue. It's a pity that the dark spiritual cultivator who assassinated the sect master committed suicide. Otherwise, the murderer behind the scenes would definitely be found out from him."
