The same Mid-Autumn Festival.

 In the west of Jiangning City, a palace named "New Tiger Palace" is brightly lit.

Jiangning was originally the place where Kang Wang Zhou Yong lived for most of his life. After he became the emperor, although he suffered a catastrophe in the early stage of searching mountains and seas, and was frightened into the sea in the later stage, and finally died at sea, Jian Shuo's dynasty was

In ** years, Jiangnan absorbed the population of the Central Plains, but it was considered prosperous. At that time, many people boasted this situation as the "image of ZTE" that Emperor Jian Shuo "ruled by doing nothing", so there were several palaces.

The garden was built in the Jiangning enclosure, his hometown.

This "New Tiger Palace" is one of them. It was originally called "Changyu Garden". After the Fair Party entered Jiangning, it changed hands twice. After it fell into the hands of Xu Zhaonan, it changed the name and regarded this place as "Change Palace".

A stronghold of the "Run King" force.

 At this moment, the main hall of the palace was splendid and magnificent, and all the heroes gathered together.

The figure sitting at the top of the hall is huge and looks like an ancient Buddha. It is Lin Zongwu, the "number one martial artist in the world" and the "leader of the Great Light Sect" who arrived in Jiangning a few days ago.

Sitting on the left side below Lin Zongwu is a big man in a blue shirt. This man has a vast sky, his eyes are like red phoenixes, his expression is solemn and he has an aura of calm and power, and next to him is one of the five kings of the Fair Party who is currently in a separate state.

One of them is Xu Zhaonan, the "King of Wheels" who is very famous in Jiangnan.

Xu Zhaonan was a leader of the Great Guangming Sect before the uprising. He used the foundation of the Great Guangming Sect to start the uprising. When he ascended to a high place and called out, the responders gathered. By now, the "King of Wheels" had more than one million followers.

, even the elite soldiers and horses number in the hundreds of thousands. From a structural point of view, his power has firmly suppressed the loosely structured Great Light Sect. However, with the ruthless and cunning side of the Jin Dynasty, he deceived his masters and destroyed them.

It is different from the "Xuan Nu" of our ancestors. From this arrangement, it can be seen that this now highly powerful "King of Wheels" still maintains absolute respect for the old leader of the past.

Corresponding to Xu Zhaonan on the left, the one on the right is still the "Crazy Tiger" Wang Nanda, who is the deputy leader of the Great Light Sect and junior brother of Lin Zongwu.

Wang Nanda became famous for his boxing when he was young. After the failure of the Fang La Uprising, he, Lin Zongwu, and Sikong Nan made a comeback. Their skills were still able to compete with Chen Fan, who was one of the strongest among the younger generation at that time. It was only in Wo in the past few years.

In an inexplicable battle that Zhou participated in, he injured his arm, and as he got older, his actual skills were not as good as before.

However, when people are in the world, it is not hard work that determines everything in many cases. After Lin Zongwu became disheartened about the affairs of the world, Wang Nanda tried his best to support the various affairs of the Great Light Sect in the world, although he did not have the ability to forge ahead.

But after all, when Xu Zhaonan succeeded in Jiangnan, his transition in the middle won the respect of many people, including Xu Zhaonan. And now where Lin Zongwu has arrived, no one dares to despise this person even based on their past friendship.

Late Tiger.

Wang Nanda goes further down, "Heavenly Sword" Tan Zheng, "Jackdaw" Chen Juefang, "Wu Ba" Gao Huiyun, Monkey King Li Yanfeng, "Five Luo Zhan" Tang Qinghua, "Tuohe Sanren" Xu Longbiao...

...Many famous masters in the Green Forest, members of the Great Light Sect and members of the Fair Party's "Lunner King" line were lined up in the hall.

These people are either already highly respected in the world, renowned masters, or they are young but already have amazing talents. Some of them are powerful in one party, and some have already proven their abilities on the battlefield.

In the past, they were all rebellious and unruly people. Only a few of them had received the guidance of the old leader Lin Zongwu in the past.

But this is the fourth day that Lin Zongwu came to Jiangning. In the previous three days, he commented on and discussed the arts of everyone here, but it was just such an expression. The terrifying figure under that huge figure

His skills have truly shocked everyone. Even Gao Huiyun, the general of the Chakravartin King who is said to be proficient in all eighteen kinds of weapons and is more focused on military affairs, has truly understood what it means to be "close at hand".

The people inside are all enemies of the country."

On this basis, coupled with the fact that everyone is talking about the Great Light Sect's efforts in fighting against the Jin Dynasty in Jin over the years, and the tragic success of countless members under the leadership of the leader, even the most rebellious people can't stand it at this time.

We have recognized the legend of this holy leader's life history and paid him knee and respect.

In fact, the Fairness Party now has a vast area under its jurisdiction. Chakravartin King Xu Zhaonan was originally working near Taihu Lake. After hearing the news of Lin Zongwu's arrival, he rushed back to Jiangning all the way through the night and starry night, and just entered the city this afternoon.

When he saw Lin Zongwu, this powerful leader who is now considered to be one of the few in the world said he was being disrespectful and even knelt down to apologize. Lin Zongwu liked his respect very much, and after a harmonious conversation between the two parties,

Xu Zhaonan immediately summoned all the important members of the Wheel-Winning King's forces in Jiangning. After this Mid-Autumn Festival meeting, Lin Zongwu's honor and status as the "Winning King" and almost the "Top Emperor" were basically established.

The event was serious at first, but then gradually became harmonious. When the meeting was over, Lin Zongwu and Xu Zhaonan walked to the side hall at the rear. The two set up a tea table in the courtyard of the side hall.

We talked in private for a long time.

After Xu Zhaonan said goodbye, Wang Nanda walked into the side hall. In the courtyard here are still the tables, chairs and tea where Lin Zongwu and Xu Zhaonan sat down to talk, but there is an upward platform on the side.

The palace wall facing that side had collapsed. Now when he walked over to this side, through the broken wall, it turned into a small terrace overlooking half of Jiangning. He saw the huge senior brother standing there with his hands behind his back, facing

Under a bright moon, the lights of the city spread forward, silent and silent.

 “…senior brother.”

Wang Nanda said something, stood beside Lin Zongwu, and looked at the lights in the city with him. He knew that Lin Zongwu and Xu Zhaonan should have had their first confession, but as to how things would develop, Lin

What kind of plan Zongwu had made, he didn't ask much at this time.

"Junior brother." After a while, Lin Zongwu said, "...do you still remember Fang La?"

“...of course I remember it.” Wang Nanda nodded.

Lin Zongwu stood there, looking ahead, and was silent for a while before speaking: "...Thirty years ago, he had extraordinary martial arts and unified the Holy Religion. Since then, heroes have gathered from all directions and dominated the world. Among those people at that time, not only

Mentioning the astonishingly talented swordsman Liu Dabiao, excluding Fang Baihua, not to mention Shi Bao, Li Tianrun and other figures, just the two brothers Fang La and Fang Qifu, they have the appearance of being invincible in the world. I once said, there must be

One day, it will replace it."

Lin Zongwu spoke calmly but slowly, talking about the events of that year to the last person in the world with whom he had a close relationship.

“Tell me, if you play it right today, what will be the outcome between you and me, brothers, and our brother Fang La?”

Wang Nanda thought for a while: "Senior brother, my martial arts have improved immeasurably over the years. No matter if Fang La or Fang Qifu comes back, they will definitely be defeated at the hands of senior brother. But if you and I fight against the two of them, I'm afraid it will still be him.

Winner and I lose...it's me, junior brother, who's holding us back."

Lin Zongwu turned to look at Wang Nanda, who had wild hair like a lion, but smiled and shook his head: "Old man, Fang La, and Fang Qifu all died in their prime, and none of them lived to our age.

According to this, it is you and me who win."

Wang Nanda frowned: "Senior brother...but Xu Zhaonan..."

“It has nothing to do with Xu Zhaonan. I think of Zhou Tong.”

In front of the small terrace is a broken palace wall. On the other side of the gap in the palace wall, a bright moon falls from the vast sky. In front of the gap, a huge monk puts his hands on his back and looks up at the bright moon in the sky.

. He was talking about Fang La before, but for some reason he was thinking of Zhou Tong now. There was a slight desolation in his tone.

Wang Nanda looked at this scene, and he unconsciously had a complex feeling in his heart. What suddenly came to his mind was a verse that has been quite popular in the world in recent years, but it is called:

Peach plums and spring breeze, a glass of wine, and ten years of rain in the rivers and lakes.

The lights have been scattered for more than ten years, and what their brothers and sisters are facing is that the city in front of them is in ruins. Although their status is high, who can actually know the regrets in their hearts.

 …

“Xu Zhaonan is a good young man, and I also know why, junior brother, you asked me to go south this time.”

The two of them looked at the scenery in front of them for a while. Lin Zongwu turned around and walked away with his hands behind his back. He paced slowly before speaking like this. Wang Nanda frowned: "Senior brother..."

Lin Zongwu raised one hand and interrupted him.

"In the past few days since I came to Jiangning, Xu Zhaonan's two sons entertained me and others at the beginning. It was easy for me to kill them. Xiao Xu's arrangement was very sincere. Today, when he entered the city, he knelt down regardless of his status.

For me, my courtesy has been fulfilled. In addition, today is on his territory, and he invited me to sit down, so he took a risk. As a junior, if we can do this, we old people should also be informed."

 “Brother, this is what he should do.”

"Everything in the world depends on who has the power. Whatever he has is destined to be what he should do. But junior brother, you are right. If he wants the mantle of our Great Light Sect, these are what he should do.

."

 “Senior brother…”

Lin Zongwu walked down, and Wang Nanda followed behind. At this time, he understood what the other party meant. He wanted to refute, but the words stuck in his throat and he choked on it. In fact, he went south to look for his senior brother this time, although

I didn't think much about it, but deep down in my heart, it was hard to say whether I had these thoughts. But now that I realized it, I just felt uncomfortable.

Lin Zongwu sat down at the tea table and pointed to the seat opposite. Wang Nanda came over and said, "Brother, I actually... don't..."

"I know. You and I, brothers, why do you need to say so much? In fact, most of this matter is my own thought."

He waved his fingers and asked Wang Nanda to sit across from him. He then cleaned the teapot and teacups and stirred up the charcoal fire. Wang Nanda also extended his hand to help, but his technique was clumsy and far less calm than the Tathagata-like senior brother opposite him who looked calm.

"...In the fourteenth year of Jinghan, I heard that the imperial court had dealt with the Right Prime Minister and banned the Secret Investigation Department. I led a team north and intercepted Qin Siyuan in Zhuxian Town. He and his old wife committed suicide by taking poison and facing me.

This person who can take his life at any time is dismissive."

“Scholars like Qin Laogou are arrogant and ignorant.”

"He talked about Zhou Tong." Lin Zongwu sighed slightly, "Zhou Tong's martial arts has been known as the best in the world since he was in the imperial boxing gym. In those years, many heroes from the Green Forest came to kick the gym, and Zhou Tong was one of them.

The reception was indeed invincible in the world. You and I both know that Zhou Tong had longed to be a general in the army and lead a team to kill the enemy. But in the end, he just led a team of Jianghu people to assassinate Nianhan in Xinzhou City.

…”

"He died because of this, and Qin Siyuan, who used to look down on people in the world, just admired him because of this incident. The old man... used these words to provoke me. Although his intention was only to hurt people, the consistent character of these people revealed in them

The idea is clear." Lin Zongwu smiled, "I am sitting in that seat tonight, looking at these people below... Junior brother, we have been thinking about Cheng Fangla in this life, but in the end, maybe

I can only be a Zhou Tong. A martial artist, with blood splattering at most ten steps..."

“It’s only in these years that I can see clearly.” Wang Nanda said, “Practice martial arts and boxing, and employ and control subordinates are two completely different things after all.”

"Yes." Lin Zongwu fiddled with the teapot on the stove, "I have been thinking about these things after Jin failed to resist the Jin Dynasty. This time when I went south, junior brother, you told me about Xu Zhaonan, and I had something in my mind.

Dong. Jianghu hero Jianghu Lao, you and I will eventually leave one day. The Great Light Sect has been in my hands for so many years, except for fighting against gold, and not much achievements... Of course, the specific plan depends on it.

If he can handle Xu Zhaonan's performance in this Jiangning Conference, then I'll give it to him, and that's fine."

 Wang Nanda looked at the flames in the furnace: "...Senior brother, have you ever considered safety?"

"Haha...hahahaha." Speaking of peace, Lin Zongwu laughed, and the laughter gradually became louder. "Does junior brother think that I originally planned to pass on the Great Light Sect to him?"
To be continued...
