70: What is the Xingxiu Sect? (please order)

Inside the restaurant.

Ning Yuan sat down on the second floor with the others.

A Zi immediately called the waiter to bring up the best dishes in the restaurant, then looked at Ning Yuan in a fawning manner.

Her two large eyes rolled around, and she thought to herself, "This guy looks very powerful. Having him as a shield is actually not bad. That way, even if people from the Xingxiu Sect come looking for me, I can let him stand up for me. It seems I need to find a way to stay by his side."

A Zi calculated secretly.

"I heard the Beggar Clan is going to hold a grand assembly again, and the new leader is Southern Murong."

Suddenly, there was a burst of exclamations and discussion from downstairs.

"I really didn't expect that Northern Qiao Feng is actually a Khitan!"

"What I didn't expect even more is that as soon as Northern Qiao Feng stepped down as leader, the Beggar Clan would ask Southern Murong to be the leader. He isn't even a member of the Beggar Clan!"

"It is said that Qiao Feng studied under Shaolin back then and was a lay Disciple of Shaolin."

"That's true, the Beggar Clan has always been inclusive, accepting Disciples from various Schools."

"Qiao Feng is a Khitan. It seems that from now on, there will be no more North or South in the world, only one Murong!"

"Have you heard? Recently, Qiao Feng seems to be preparing to go to Shaolin to confront the Shaolin Abbot, Xuan Ci."

"There is a rumor that Shaolin Abbot Xuan Ci was the leading brother who killed Qiao Feng's parents thirty years ago. I don't know if it's true or false."

"Even if it is true, it was for the sake of eliminating a threat to the Martial Forest, and it doesn't damage his reputation. That Khitan sneaking into our Central Plains clearly wasn't up to any good."

Someone snorted and said.

"That is incorrect. Who would bring their wife and child when doing bad or dangerous things?"

Someone expressed confusion.

"Are you defending the Khitan dog?"

Someone immediately slammed the table in anger and stood up to question him.

"That is not what I meant."

The person who just wanted to say a few fair words quickly waved his hands to indicate.

"I wonder what kind of ability Southern Murong has that made the Beggar Clan willing to honor an outsider as their leader."

"That Murong Fu is very powerful. It is said that the Four Evils, who are extremely notorious in the Jianghu, were captured alive by him. Also, the recently famous Tibetan National Master, Jiumozhi, has fought against him to a draw. He must be the number one person of the younger generation."

Someone gave a thumbs up, their face full of admiration.

"I also heard that Qiao Feng and Murong Fu once fought at Yanz 塢, and it was also a draw."

"It is a pity that we were not in Jiangnan at that time, and could not witness such a grand scene."

Many people showed expressions of regret.

"Since we couldn't see the last one, let's go to the Beggar Clan this time and see what kind of demeanor this Southern Murong has."

"Good, we will go tomorrow."

Many people in the restaurant chimed in.

"Young Master Murong's status in the Jianghu is truly prestigious."

Zhong Ling looked at Ning Yuan with an expression of admiration.

Even Mu Wanqing was quite moved, then her face was full of pride, looking as if the husband she chose must be a Dragon among men.

A Zi, who was on the side, frowned upon hearing this. Her heart skipped a beat as she looked at Ning Yuan, "Could it be..."

"Young Master Murong, Southern Murong, Murong Fu, could he be..."

A Zi was clever and cunning. Before, she had just entered the Central Plains and didn't make the connection, but now, hearing the name mentioned downstairs, she couldn't help but think of Ning Yuan.

However, A Zi did not notice that someone in the private room opposite was looking at her.

"Senior Brother, it seems the person who sent the message didn't lie. That dead girl, A Zi, is actually here."

"She has a lot of nerve. She is clearly on the run, yet she dares to appear openly in the busiest restaurant in Luoyang. Is she afraid that we won't find her?"

Tianlangzi snorted coldly and said.

"Senior Brother, should we capture her immediately?"

Another Xingxiu Sect Disciple looked respectfully at the person in the lead.

The person in the lead was twenty-seven or twenty-eight years old, quite handsome, and looked very kind. No one could tell from his appearance that he was the notorious Senior Brother of the Xingxiu Sect.

"Since we have found her, there is no rush."

Zhai Xing Zi raised his hand to stop him, his gaze sweeping over the other women, his eyes showing amazement. "And there are so many beautiful women beside this stinking girl. If I can present them to Master, I will definitely win his favor."

As he spoke, Zhai Xing Zi stood up and walked out, teasing, "What northern qiao feng, southern murong, all this North and South stuff, that was only because my Master had not yet entered the Central Plains."

"Who is spouting nonsense here?"

Zhong Ling was quite dissatisfied when she heard this and couldn't help but stand up.

After A Zi heard this voice, she was stunned. Then she turned her head and saw Zhai Xing Zi. Her pupils shrank immediately, but soon she thought of Murong Fu again. A trace of joy appeared in the depths of her eyes, and she immediately calmed down.

"Oh?"

Zhai Xing Zi feigned surprise. After glancing at A Zi, he then smiled and said, "This Central Plains is truly a rich land. We just arrived and already met so many beauties. Presenting you to Master will surely get us a reward."

"Arrogant words!"

Mu Wanqing's personality had always been fiery, and she immediately slammed the table and stood up.

The commotion upstairs immediately attracted the attention of many people downstairs and around.

"Little girl, it seems you don't know who we are. I'm afraid telling you would scare you to death."

Someone behind Zhai Xing Zi sneered.

"I don't care who you are. Offending this young lady is courting death!"

Mu Wanqing raised her hand, and several sleeve arrows flew out. The group opposite was startled and dodged.

"What a fiery stinking girl. Catch them for me and send them to Master as ingredients for medicine!"

Zhai Xing Zi waved his hand, and the few Junior Brothers behind him immediately rubbed their hands and stepped forward.

"They seem to be people from the Xingxiu Sect."

At this moment, someone recognized their clothes and suddenly looked terrified, covering their mouth and nose and retreating several steps.

"What Xingxiu Sect?"

Someone was confused, but after a moment, many people seemed to remember something and all retreated.

"It's the Western Region Xingxiu Sect, the Disciples of the Old Monster of Xingxiu!"

"I heard this School is far away in the Western Region and is best at using poison. The Old Monster of Xingxiu killed various experts in the Central Plains Martial Forest back then with his evil arts and poison techniques. Now, why have his Disciples appeared in the Central Plains? Could the Old Monster of Xingxiu have come too?"

Many people looked terrified.

Although Ding Chunqiu had not appeared in the Central Plains for many years, the impression he left on people back then was still fresh in their memories.

There were few such ruthless people in the Central Plains.

Especially the strangeness of his poisoning methods and the miserable state of those poisoned were still vivid in their minds.

"What is the Xingxiu Sect? I've never heard of it."

Mu Wanqing glanced at A Zi, who was on the side, and then snorted coldly.

This remark immediately made Zhai Xing Zi, Shihu Zi, Tianlangzi, and the others opposite show expressions of anger.

"The Xingxiu Sect is a School from the Western Region and is best at using poison. You sisters must be careful."

Wang Yuyan immediately reminded them.

A Zi also immediately nodded in agreement.

The women naturally understood, after all, they had already witnessed A Zi's methods before.

"Little girl, you are the first person who dared to say what the Xingxiu Sect is. Today I will tell you what our Xingxiu Sect is!"

Cold light flashed in Zhai Xing Zi's eyes. With a wave of his hand, a ball of green flame rushed towards Mu Wanqing.

"What the hell is that?"

Mu Wanqing was startled and slashed with her sword, but the green flame was like a maggot on the bone, actually spreading along the blade towards Mu Wanqing's arm.

"Quick, throw away the sword."

A Zi couldn't help but remind her.

Mu Wanqing realized it then and quickly let go, but the green flame seemed to have a mind of its own and actually bounced towards Mu Wanqing.

"Hmph!"

At this moment, Ning Yuan gave a cold snort, and the green flame that was bouncing back was sent flying back.

Zhai Xing Zi was shocked and dodged, but the people behind him were not so lucky.

"Ah!"

A scream came from behind immediately. Zhai Xing Zi turned his head in shock and anger to look, then glared at Ning Yuan, "How dare you! You actually dare to hurt my Xingxiu Sect's people. I think you don't know how to die."

Zhai Xing Zi secretly released poisonous mist.

Ning Yuan stood up to block in front of the women, "If your Old Ancestor came, perhaps he would barely be qualified to spout wild words in front of me. As for you, do you deserve it?"

The words "do you deserve it" had just been spoken when Star Shift reversed the invisible poisonous gas that was diffusing over.

Many Disciples of the Xingxiu Sect immediately clutched their throats and fell to the ground, having difficulty breathing.

Their faces also quickly turned purple-black.

"Senior Brother, where is the antidote? We can't hold on!"

Someone behind shouted hurriedly.

Zhai Xing Zi's face turned livid. He immediately threw out the antidote, while looking at Ning Yuan with an ugly expression, shouting in shock and anger: "You, who exactly are you?"

Then he looked at A Zi, "Stinking girl, is this the new backer you found?"

At this moment, they no longer pretended not to know her.

"Bleh!"

A Zi rolled her eyes, made a face at Zhai Xing Zi, and jumped behind Ning Yuan.

"The people from the Xingxiu Sect actually suffered a setback."

The people downstairs also exclaimed, and their gaze towards Ning Yuan was full of awe.

"The people from the Xingxiu Sect are best at using poison. How did they poison themselves first? Could this Young Master also be a Master of using poison?"

Someone said, feeling suspicious and uncertain.

At any time, people who use poison are the most dreaded.

"Is there a possibility that they were poisoned by their own poison?"

At this moment, someone suddenly guessed.

The person next to him immediately ridiculed, "The people from the Xingxiu Sect are all Masters of using poison. How could they make such a low-level mistake?"

"I didn't say they made the mistake themselves."

When this was said, many people were stunned.

Then someone's eyes lit up, "Using their own way, to return it to them!"

"Could it be Young Master Murong?"

In an instant, everyone was looking up at Ning Yuan.

"That's possible. Calculating the time, Young Master Murong should indeed have arrived in Luoyang by now."

After all, tomorrow is the Beggar Clan assembly.

Murong Fu, as the Beggar Clan leader, is the main character.

It's just that everyone thought he would be at the Beggar Clan at this time, but they didn't expect him to be in Luoyang city.

And Zhai Xing Zi and the others obviously heard the words below, and couldn't help but grit their teeth and say: "You are Murong Fu!"

"It is I."

Ning Yuan chuckled, "You use poison to hurt people in the dark, so I returned your poison to you. That is considered fair."

"If you have any dissatisfaction, tell Ding Chunqiu to come and talk to me himself."

Ning Yuan raised his hand, and a glass of wine fell from the table into his hand.

"Hmph!"

Zhai Xing Zi's face was ugly, "Murong Fu, we have noted today's matter. We will report it truthfully to the Old Ancestor."

"However, that little girl behind you is a member of our Xingxiu Sect. Please return her to us."

Zhai Xing Zi suddenly pointed at A Zi and said.

A Zi immediately shrank behind Ning Yuan, then poked her head out and made a face at Zhai Xing Zi and the others.
