I asked you to play the dungeon, but you are here to raise the BOSS?

Chapter 181 Sword fighting is just for fun, being able to observe swords is the real skill...

"Since the Taoist Master holds the token, please cooperate with us when the time comes."

Lin Xuan took out another gold medal, engraved the words "Mu Taoist" on it, and handed it over: "Anyone who breaks into the forbidden palace without a token will be killed without mercy."

"this……"

Mu Taoren pondered for a moment and did not take the order: "According to what the young master said, on the day of the sword competition, something big might happen in the imperial city?"

His thoughts are all on being the leader of Wudang, and he has little interest in other things.

If you just watched Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue compete with each other in swordplay, then Mu Taoren would certainly think it was good.

But from what Lin Xuan meant, it seemed that there were a lot of hidden things involved.

If something like this happens in the Forbidden City, you can understand with your buttocks that it must be related to rebellion.

It's troublesome at first glance.

Mu Daoren, as a mere passerby, had no stakes, so he immediately planned to stay out of the matter.

"Maybe there is, maybe there isn't."

Lin Xuan smiled faintly: "For the Taoist Priest, if we really want to take action, it will be a matter of great benefit and no disadvantage."

"Oh? I wonder why Young Master Lin said this?"

"The post of National Preceptor of this dynasty has been vacant for a long time. As a famous elder in Wudang, the Taoist Master is extremely senior and highly respected."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "If you can serve as a protector, then the position of National Master will be justified."

"Hahaha! Thank you Mr. Lin for your kindness."

Mu Taoist was startled, laughed and shook his head: "The old Taoist is used to being lazy, and has never thought about the position of national master."

"The Imperial Preceptor is originally a vacuous position and does not need to go to court to perform his duties."

Lin Xuan said calmly: "If the Taoist master becomes a national master, he will be called the real protector of the country. He can be called the number one person in the Baidao today. I am afraid he will be the best choice for the head of Wudang."

"Huh? This..."

Mu Taoren was silent for a moment, his brows furrowed: "But Pindao... Pindao is in a special situation, I'm afraid he won't be able to be the leader."

He originally wanted to say that he was not interested in the Wudang leader, and he was afraid that he had found the wrong person or something.

But looking at Lin Xuan's half-smiling look, I thought of the rumors about him...

Mu Taoren's heart beat violently a few times and he quickly changed his words.

He has been dreaming about being the leader of Wudang for decades.

I don’t intend to miss it just because it’s a temporary pleasure to pretend to be cool…

"As a national teacher, the Taoist Master is famous all over the world and is highly respected."

Lin Xuan smiled faintly: "If it is something without evidence, who will others believe?"

Lin Xuan didn't know if Wudang leader Shi Yan had any "criminal evidence" against Mu Taoist.

But in this era, there is no such thing as a paternity test.

Unless Mu Taoist is mentally retarded and claims to have seduced a decent woman, and even goes to sign and sign...

Otherwise, these are all unproven things.

In the same way, when Xiao Yuanshan threatened Xuanci in Tian Long Ba Bu...

As long as Xuanci is thick-skinned and refuses to admit his fault, it's actually no big deal.

No matter how cerebrally paralyzed the martial arts heroes in the Central Plains are, they cannot distrust the abbot of Shaolin and trust a Khitan.

However, this Mu Taoist himself is not very good.

The swordsman relies on his own sword, not any conspiracy.

If you don't follow the rules of the house, just break out of the door.

With Mu Daoren's strength, which can be called the first in the entire Gu Long series of Wudang, he could have easily become a sect leader.

There is no need to work so hard and fight openly and secretly with Mei Zhenren's lineage.

Of course, these have nothing to do with Lin Xuan, and his relationship with Mu Taoist has not reached that level...

Just stop there and let this veteran do the work for him.

"Well..., since we are watching the sword competition, it is only right to do what we can!"

Mu Daoren's heart was pounding, he reached out to take the token, and said with a smile: "The current ones holding the token are Lao Dao and Xiaofeng, right?"

"Well, for the remaining three pieces, we will also choose an owner who matches his identity. It's better to have less than to waste."

"The Taoist Master Mu is a master of swordsmanship. There are still more than ten small buildings in this mansion. The Taoist Master is a master of the first generation. You can choose a small building to live in."

Lin Xuan smiled and said: "All masters who come here, regardless of whether they are qualified to observe swordsmanship or not, can stay here."

Lin Xuan planned to use this opportunity to accumulate some contacts and build a high-end warrior club to prepare for subsequent events.

If you have enough connections, even if there are some unplanned divine developments in the future, you can handle them calmly.

As for providing these people with food, accommodation and treatment, it is only incidental.

Anyway, there is no shortage of places to live here, and the money given by the court cannot be spent all.

"That's it! Haha! Then the old man told Xiaofeng that he would be bothered more this time."

Under normal circumstances, Mu Taoren has a pretty good mind, and he instantly guessed Lin Xuan's intentions.

But, guess what, Mu Taoist is indeed a little moved.

Although he is extremely arrogant deep down.

But for the masters of the same level, they still attach great importance to it.

Since Lin Xuan promised the gold content of the token, Mu Daoren can also take the opportunity to expand his contacts and exchange martial arts.

Even if there are no experts, just chatting with Lin Xuan and Ah Qing, Mu Taoren feels that the trip is worthwhile.

If you are very lucky and have a slight breakthrough in your realm... it will be even more profitable.

Even the worst outcome would be to just eat and drink here for half a month, pat my belly and enter the palace to watch the excitement.

Is there any loss?

Not at all!

Thinking of this, Mu Taoren couldn't think of any reason for his refusal.

***

"On July 25, the imperial court published a list announcing that Mr. Lin Xuan and Ms. Ah Qing will be responsible for the sword competition. Five additional fencing quotas were given to Mr. Lin to allocate."

"On July 26, Miss A Qing faced off against the famous hero Lu Xiaofeng and stabbed her with her supreme sword power. However, because Lu Xiaofeng destroyed the green bamboo stick held by Miss A Qing with a single finger of intelligence, the two were considered a draw."

"On the same day, Wudang Mu Taoist, one of the three most famous swordsmen in the world, fought against Miss Ah Qing. It is said that they were evenly matched."

"On that day, a notice was posted announcing that these two people were qualified to watch the battle. It was also stated that if they can be recognized by Mr. Lin or Miss A Qing, they will be qualified to enter the palace to watch the battle. Anyone who is interested can come and give it a try."

"On July 29, the 'King of Thieves' Sikong Zhaixing and Hua Manlou came to the Lin Mansion. The former was defeated by Lin Xuan with one move. Hua Manlou claimed to be here to visit a friend and did not take any action."

"On July 30th, young Taoist Gu from Bashan came on a crane, and was defeated by Miss Ah Qing with her sword. Young Taoist Gu claimed that Miss Ah Qing had gained the essence of swordsmanship, and she was the master of Ye Ye. Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue are probably not as good as them."

"On the third day of August, the Beggar Clan King Shibao led the Beggar Clan masters to the capital. They were defeated by Lin Xuan's second move and left with a sigh."

"On the fourth day of August, Mr. Tang Sect had a battle with Miss A Qing. The latter used his supreme swordsmanship to defeat the Tang Sect's seven hidden weapons. Mr. Tang Sect was convinced and took the initiative to admit defeat."

"..."

"On the eighth day of August, Eagle Eye Seventh from the Twelve Chain Dock came and was seriously injured by Miss A Qing's move."

"On the tenth day of August, the Emei Sect entered Beijing from Sichuan. The leader Dugu Yihe had a long chat with Lin Xuan for an hour. After that, the two had a few exchanges, but they couldn't decide the winner."

"Subsequently, the imperial court published a list announcing that Dugu Yihe, the leader of Emei, had won the third place to watch the game."

"A lot of people in the world were talking in the tavern, making many disrespectful remarks about Lin Xuan and Dugu Yihe."

"The Emei Party did not explain this, they just broke the legs of all those who talked too much..."

"Then Dugu Yihe personally stated that from today onwards, the Emei Sect respects Mr. Lin, and any disrespect to Mr. Lin is the enemy of Emei."

"At this time, those people just remembered Dugu Yihe's status and dispersed in a hurry."

"In the past two days, no one has dared to challenge, and there are still two places left."

"Relevant battle reports have been updated on the outer city notice board."

In a small courtyard in the capital, a young and beautiful woman said respectfully.

"So many things have happened in the past half month?"

"These people are among the best in the world, yet they lost to these two little-known young men and women?"

There was a sigh, and a very old woman asked.

The old woman was wearing a Tsing Yi with patches all over her body. Her back felt like a big stone was pressing on her, and her body was stooped.

But the voice is as clear and beautiful as an oriole emerging from the valley.

She is Gongsun Lan, the leader of the "Red Shoes", and a descendant of Gongsun Auntie, the first dancer in the Tang Palace during the prosperous period of Kaiyuan.

In addition to this "Grandma Bear" identity, she also has a dozen or so messy identities.

Each identity represents the death of countless people.

"Back to auntie, originally because of the sword competition between Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue, Shuntian Mansion became a mixed bag."

"Now those top masters have hit a wall with Mr. Lin Xuan, but they have blown him to the sky."

"So much so that no one dares to take the remaining two spots."

The woman chuckled and said: "Nowadays, the taverns in the capital say that sword fighting is just for fun. Being able to observe swords is the real skill..."

"There is such a thing..."

Gongsun Lan frowned and said coldly: "I fought with Lu Xiaofeng that day... Well, it was not easy for me to hurt him."

"Are you planning to go and have a look, too?"

"That's fine! I'm not interested in watching the battle, but since the world's ignorant people have praised these two as gods, I'll go and see them."

Gongsun Lan snorted: "Fourth, please clean up and come with me."

"yes."
