The cold light pierced through the air.

Even though the blade energy was wild, there was not a hint of chaos. Each slash seemed to be at the right level, like a continuous wave that connected one after the other, gradually becoming a force that covered the sky and the earth.

Under Xie Heng’s intentional control, the wind swept across the middle-aged man’s temples, cutting off a small part of his hair.

“I’m sorry,” Amidst the raging blade energy, the youth grinned with difficulty and said with a smile, “My cultivation is not enough to fully control this blade art. I’ve made a fool of myself.”

Xie Heng’s mouth said “difficult to control”, but his wrist continued to exert force. Each slash was faster than the previous one. The layer upon layer of speed gave him an unparalleled advantage. The cold face of the interrogator’s eyes gradually became serious. Even the interrogator wearing the cat mask stopped his lazy posture and stood straight. For the first time, surprise appeared in his tone.

Apart from surprise, his tone also carried a hint of appreciation. He said softly, “I didn’t expect to see such exquisite blade art here.”

“Hey, Xiao Bai, could this be the one that was taken away by that person … …”

Before he could finish, he was mercilessly interrupted by the black-clothed man wearing the white mask.

“No.” He said coldly, “No need to use it anymore. You’re qualified.”

The corner of Xie Heng’s mouth slightly raised, the blade energy gradually slowing down.

Like a swallow falling from the eaves, he retreated a few steps and steadied his feet. His breathing was slightly hurried. With a casual swipe, the long blade in his hand instantly disappeared.

“Is it enough?” The youth raised his head slightly and asked in a clear voice.

“It’s enough.” The interrogator wearing the cat mask replied with a smile.

His curious gaze circled back and forth around Xie Heng, then passed over Xie Heng’s shoulder and swept towards Xu Wan ‘er who was not far away with her hands crossed in front of her chest. Her lips slightly parted as if she wanted to say something.

The person wearing the white mask didn’t have any interest in chatting.

The youth sheathed his blade and turned around arrogantly. Xuan energy gathered under his feet as he quickly walked out of the courtyard.

“Wait, wait a moment!”

Xu Wan ‘er was a little anxious when she saw that the interrogator was about to leave. The girl ran forward but was forced back by the cold aura emanating from the youth. She didn’t dare to get too close to him and could only stop two to three meters away.

She smoothed her hair, which had been messed up by the wind, behind her back. She anxiously fumbled in her sleeve and pulled out a dark colored token.

“I have the Xuan Ling Sect’s exemption order!” The girl shouted at the youth’s back. “I want to give this to Big Brother Xie. With this, he can enter the Xuan Ling Sect without having to take the test, right?”

The youth wearing the white mask suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He stood where he was without even turning around, but his back stiffened in an instant, as if he had encountered something he didn’t want to face.

“Pfft!”

A few steps behind, the youth wearing the cat mask couldn’t help but chuckle as he covered his mouth.

“Little White, oh Little White, you’ve been scheming for a long time, but you still brought it up in the end, haven’t you?”

“I knew your mask was useless. What’s coming will come, and you can’t hide from it. You still want me to wear this ugly, soapy outfit. It’s so ugly. ”

As he laughed, he lifted his hand to remove the cat mask from his face. With his other hand, he patted the youth in front of him on the shoulder. But to no avail, he was slapped away by the youth wearing the white mask.

The mask was removed, revealing a handsome face. His nose was high, and his eyes were like the stars. He had a look of disdain, and his lips were as thin as a blade. He had a teasing smile at the corner of his mouth, and a mole at the corner of his eye was sexy and sentimental, yet his lips were as thin as a blade.

“Little girl over there, come over here. I’ve received your request. You don’t have to pay any attention to that guy next to you. The Xuan Ling Sect welcomes you. ”

The mask spun around the youth’s fingertips, scattering the sunlight.

After a few steps, the arrogant youth finally turned around. The cold air around him didn’t diminish in the slightest, but he quickly stepped forward to block the youth who called himself “Senior Brother.”

Under Xu Wan ‘er’s bewildered gaze, he touched the mask with his white fingertips, paused for a moment, and then slowly took it off.

He revealed a handsome face that was sixty to seventy percent similar to Xu Wan ‘er’s, tall and elegant, fresh and handsome.

His face was expressionless, and his expression was cold.

The onlookers gasped, and Xu Wan ‘er’s eyes widened in shock. She didn’t know what to do and stammered, “You, you …”

The flirtatious black-clothed man at the side had an expression of someone who was watching the show, and took the opportunity to point at the youth. “He’s Cheng Chengbai, your mother’s younger brother, your little uncle.”

Xie Heng: “… … Oh huh?”

Xu Wan ‘er: “… … Holy shit.”

Looking at her little uncle descending from the sky, Xu Wan ‘er was in a mess. She hadn’t seen her mother since she was born, and she had never thought that she would be able to see her mother’s family in such a situation!

The two words “family” smashed into the young girl’s mind with the force of a broken bamboo, splitting apart the messy and chaotic thoughts, and squeezed in front of her eyes, striking and dazzling.

Xu Wan ‘er couldn’t help but feel her nose turn sour, and her eyes turned red.

She raised her head slightly, her beautiful eyes glowing with water filled with anticipation. She stared unblinkingly at Cheng Chengbai, waiting for him to give her a clear answer.

After a moment of silence, Cheng Chengbai said dryly, his voice slightly hoarse, “… … I am.”

“That’s right, he is.” The young man who was watching the show excitedly gestured to Xu Wan ‘er behind Cheng Chengbai, “That’s the expression, your uncle can’t stand this. Come on, sister, cry as hard as you can, don’t stop — —”

Cheng Chengbai suddenly turned around, and the scabbard flew into the air and fiercely struck!

But the young man nimbly dodged it.

Xie Heng looked at her thoughtfully.

The pressure that the kitten youth exerted on him was far less than that of the young man named Cheng Chengbai, but at this moment, when the two of them exchanged blows, the former’s movements were as fast as lightning, while the latter was as graceful as a swan, truly extraordinary.

Just what kind of place was this Xuan Ling Sect?

It definitely wasn’t the weak sect he had imagined. Just based on the cultivation level that the two young men in front of him displayed, the Xuan Ling Sect had the right to leave its name in the world.

But why had he never heard of it before?

“I don’t like your father.”

On the battlefield, Cheng Chengbai was still as cold and expressionless as ever.

Xu Wan ‘er was stunned once more.

“Hey!” The young man leaped back to Cheng Chengbai’s side and said unhappily, “Why are you bringing up such troublesome matters when the whole family is reunited? Little Bai, look! Your niece looks so much like Senior Sister! Why aren’t you going to hug her? ”

Cheng Chengbai: “…”

The cold-faced young man’s brows were tightly furrowed. He was reluctantly dragged over to Xu Wan ‘er.

Xie Heng watched from the side and had a vague guess in his heart.

A beautiful girl with outstanding talent had fallen in love with a man with mediocre talent. She didn’t hesitate to abandon her younger brother and eloped with him, never to return … Later, her younger brother finally found traces of his older sister, only to discover that she had passed away, leaving behind only a girl who had been brought along by the man to live a hard life.

Perhaps his younger brother would hate her for not being able to see his older sister for the last time?

Perhaps it was because of this that he hated the child she had with the man.

But the deep affection in their bloodline was thicker than water.

Once again, seeing a face that was extremely similar to the person in his memories, and seeing the girl being lonely and helpless, no matter how unwilling he was, the moment he took off his mask, all that remained was the surging feeling of closeness in his blood.

Imagining a great drama from the era, Xie Heng rubbed his nose, almost moved by this beautiful story.

He was somewhat gratified, but also somewhat envious. He watched from afar as Xu Wan ‘er lowered her head and wiped her tears. Cheng Cheng Bai’s face was full of reluctance, and his movements were also stiff, but he still reached out and hugged the sobbing girl.

Xie Heng leaned against the cold wooden stake, slightly raising his head, blinded by the bright and beautiful sunlight pouring down.

The youth raised his hand to block his eyes, the warm sunlight falling on his black hair. His eyes were slightly closed, thinking, I’m also an orphan, I haven’t seen my mother before.

In this world, is there still a “little jiujiu” that is connected to my blood, in some unknown corner, thinking of my mother, hoping to meet again one day?

Not far away, Cheng Cheng Cheng Bai was hugging Xu Wan ‘er.

Due to the angle, in Xie Heng’s eyes, they were hugging each other tenderly, but in reality, the distance between the two of them was enough to fit two Xie Heng’s.

Cheng Cheng Cheng Bai’s brows were impatient, but as he got closer, he could faintly see a hint of confusion and helplessness in the depths of his cold eyes. An unnatural redness appeared on his white face, and the hand that was patting Xu Wan ‘er’s shoulder trembled involuntarily. After a long time, he finally slapped down.

All of this fell into the eyes of the other black-clothed youth. His eyes were filled with joy, as though he had succeeded in his scheme and was pleased with himself. He casually took the token from Xu Wan ‘er’s hand.

The youth’s fingertips emitted a fluorescent light, like a warm firefly, pouring into the token.

As he infused more and more profound energy, the token gradually emitted a dazzling light. The jet-black color of the token receded like flowing water and melted like ink. In the end, the entire token became crystal clear and translucent, and the original words and symbols were washed away, revealing its true appearance.

It was a small sword, no more than a thumb’s length, but it emitted a faint sharpness. Looking at it from afar, one would feel as though one’s eyes would be hurt.

Xie Heng’s heart trembled.

He abruptly stood up, and in his haste, he knocked over the wooden stake he was using for practice. The log fell with a thud, smacking the back of his foot, but the youth didn’t care at all. He limped and leaped forward, rushing forward.

“This symbol,” Xie Heng’s breathing quickened as he asked anxiously, “is this the symbol of your Xuan Ling Sect?”

“Yes.”

The youth nodded.

“What, you’ve seen it before?” He asked casually, but immediately smiled noncommittally. “We’ve been living in seclusion for a long time, but this time, we’ve come out and snatched the right to examine someone else’s sect. You must be mistaken.”

“It’s impossible for me to be mistaken.”

Xie Heng took a deep breath, barely managing to suppress his racing emotions. However, his rapid heartbeat and surging blood were unable to stop. They continued to surge through his body, buzzing in his ears.

“The jade pendant my mother left me has this symbol on it. It’s impossible for me to remember wrongly.”

The youth pointed at the small sword, enunciating each word.

The black-clothed youth was stunned for a moment, but he still didn’t quite believe it. He asked suspiciously, “Kid, are you trying to find an excuse to sneak into the sect because you’ve taken a fancy to our new junior sister?”

“This kind of improper request — — you can just say it directly, I’ll definitely agree to it! But come to think of it, I can’t guarantee that Little White won’t poison you on the way here. ”

He nudged Cheng Cheng Bai beside him with his elbow and said softly, “Hey, Xiao Bai, do you know how to do that?”

Xie Heng: “… …”

Cheng Cheng Bai was obviously more reliable than the jumping youth.

His eyes narrowed slightly as he examined Xie Heng for a few seconds. He said in a low voice, “He looks … … a bit similar.”

The black-clothed youth’s expression froze.

His surprised gaze fell on Xie Heng’s face. His gaze swept over the youth’s handsome face inch by inch, pausing for a moment on his bright eyes and handsome nose. He leaned to the side and said in a small voice, “It does look a bit similar, but it doesn’t look like him either.”

Cheng Cheng Bai said lightly, “If you say it doesn’t look like him, then we won’t.”

“Don’t, don’t!”

The black-clothed youth’s face was bitter as he examined Xie Heng helplessly. He mumbled, “I can’t guarantee that, that woman is going crazy looking for him … … Let him know that we’ve encountered a person suspected to be his son, but we didn’t bring him back for examination. He can charge down from Misty Peak and cut us into pieces.”
