Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Time flies, and several years have passed.

Qingqing and Qin Keqing gave birth to a son and a daughter to Xiang Nan respectively.

The son was named Ding Yin, and the daughter was named Ding Si.

Xiang Nan did not teach them any martial arts, but taught them many miscellaneous subjects such as music, chess, calligraphy and painting, poetry, poetry, medicine, divination, astrology, arithmetic and strategy.

Because Xiang Nan knows that the darkness of the world is just a big cesspit, where people strive for fame and fortune, are brave and ruthless, and kill each other without end.

Those who are not famous only want to become famous, while those who are famous are afraid of failure. They live in fear every day, for fear of being challenged by others and failing, and losing everything they have now.

Therefore, no one in the world, whether famous or not, can live at ease. On the contrary, people who do not know martial arts can live a peaceful life for a few days.

Therefore, Xiang Nan did not teach his son and daughter martial arts, lest they have the idea of ​​​​entering the world.

Under Xiang Nan's careful education, Ding Yin and Ding Si became talents when they grew up.

Ding Yin took part in the scientific examination, and after passing the examination, he did not take the imperial examination again, but opened a Huirentang pharmacy in Hangzhou, where he used the medical skills taught by Xiang Nan to diagnose diseases and benefit the world.

Ding Si recruited a poor scholar with honest character. With the support of Xiang Nan, the couple established a spinning mill, hired many weavers to spin yarn and weave cloth, and made money by selling it.

Ding Si learned arithmetic strategies from Xiang Nan since she was a child, and was extremely talented in doing business. Therefore, under the management of her and her husband, the scale of the spinning factory became larger and larger, and the business was getting better and better. It was not only exported to the capital but also , beyond the Great Wall, and even in Southeast Asia and Europe.

…

During these decades, Xiang Nan has been practicing secretly.

The Full Moon Sword Technique, the Xie Family Sword Technique, the Sad Little Arrow, the Heavenly Book of Forgetting Love, the Fifteen Life-Destroying Sword Techniques, the Great Jiang North and South Qigong, and the Innate Body-Breaking Invisible Sword Qi... He has deduced these martial arts to a very advanced level.

In particular, the "innate body-breaking invisible sword energy" has been trained by him to the realm of "qi".

At this state, there is only one overbearing energy left between heaven and earth, which destroys everything and damages everything, and there is no way to avoid it. It can be said that he is already invincible.

As time goes by, Qing Qing and Qin Keqing also gradually grow old.

After retiring from the world for forty years, Qin Keqing was the first to leave.

In fact, she is several years older than Ding Peng and Qing Qing. It is only because she is beautiful and takes good care of herself that she looks young.

"Brother Ding, I have to take the first step. I will still be with you in the next life." Qin Keqing held Xiang Nan's hand.

"Okay, I promise you, I will definitely be with you in the next life." Xiang Nan also held her hand.

Although he was once angry with Qin Keqing for helping Liu Ruosong deceive him, that was decades ago after all. What's more, Qin Keqing has always regretted it, and they have been living well in the past few decades, so that matter is no longer worth mentioning.

Therefore, Xiang Nan was really reluctant to bear Qin Keqing's death.

After receiving Xiang Nan's assurance, Qin Keqing closed her eyes with peace of mind.

Xiang Nan then personally selected a geomantic treasure place and buried Qin Keqing.

"I really envy Sister Keqing." Looking at her grave, Qingqing said with emotion.

"What are you envious of?" Xiang Nan asked doubtfully.

"She can go ahead of you and make you care about her so much." Qingqing explained, "Brother Peng, I'm really worried that you will all leave and I will be left alone."

"Don't think nonsense, I feel that I am still very young." Xiang Nan comforted her, "Don't worry, I will stay until the end. After I send you away, I will reunite with you."

"Yeah." Qingqing nodded.

…

In the past few decades, Jianghu has continued to produce talents.

However, the person who occupies the highest peak is still Jing Wuming of Shenjian Villa.

Not only did he inherit the Xie family's swordsmanship, he also integrated it with his own martial arts to form a swordsmanship that suited him. With this sword technique, he defeated invincible opponents all over the world, so he was also honored as the "Sword God".

However, Jing Wuming does not consider himself a "sword god". Because he knew that Xiang Nan's swordsmanship was far superior to his.

Back then, when Xiang Nan killed Liu Ruosong, he struck out with a single blow, and the world was dominated by it.

This realm is too mysterious and he cannot reach it no matter what. Therefore, he always refused the title of "Sword God" and searched everywhere for traces of Xiang Nan.

He wanted to compete with Xiang Nan again and see the power of that sword with his own eyes.

But the hard work paid off, and in the end, Jing Wuming found Xiang Nan.

"I traveled all over the world to find you, but I never thought that you would live in seclusion here." He looked at Xiang Nan's manor and couldn't help but sigh.

Over the years, in order to search for Xiang Nan, he went to many deserted and deserted wilderness areas. He never expected that Xiang Nan was actually living in seclusion in the bustling city.

"The small one is hiding in the wild, the middle one is hiding in the city, and the big one is hiding in the court." Xiang Nan said with a smile, "I don't have the tendency to self-abuse, so why should I live in a remote country or deep in the mountains and old forests."

Living in the mountains in ancient times was not a pleasant thing, and material supply was a huge problem. Therefore, only poor people would hide in the mountains and forests in order to avoid corvee labor and taxes.

"It makes sense." Jing Wuming nodded.

Just because Xiang Nan built Yuanyue Villa so magnificently, he should have guessed that Xiang Nan is not a person who likes to endure hardship.

"Brother Jing, what do you want from me?" Xiang Nan asked.

"I want to compete with you again." Jing Wuming explained.

"You are already so old and you are still so angry?" Upon hearing this, Xiang Nan couldn't help laughing and said, "It's better not to, I stopped practicing martial arts a long time ago.

Over the years, I have been enjoying life every day. The scimitar has been buried in the soil for a long time, and I have never picked it up even once. If you ask me to compete with you now, then you might as well kill me directly. "

"Brother Ding, don't lie to me. I can feel that after decades, your martial arts have become more unpredictable." Jing Wuming waved his hand and said, "I beg you to take action once and let me see your realm." , this way I can die with peace of mind.”

"Brother Jing, I have really quit martial arts." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"If Brother Ding doesn't agree, then I will kill myself in front of you." Jing Wuming directly drew out his sword and placed it on his neck.

"Okay, if that's the case, then take action." Seeing this, Xiang Nan had no choice but to agree.

Jing Wuming was immediately overjoyed and was about to take action against Xiang Nan.

But when he pointed his sword at Xiang Nan, he didn't dare to take action. Because he suddenly felt that an extremely powerful and overbearing murderous aura had locked onto him.

If he dares to take action, he will die in an instant without any leeway.

This feeling made him instinctively afraid.

And he had not experienced this feeling of fear for many years. It can be said that since his debut, he has already put life and death aside and has never felt fear again.

But now, he felt scared.

This is a visceral fear. Fear comes from the unknown, fear comes from weakness, and fear comes from incompetence.

Because he had no idea how to deal with this overbearing "murderous intent", he could only admit defeat.
