World Suppressing Cauldron? Will not always suspend the front door before this blatantly? Xue Mu attempted to induce a palm pattern, was unresponsive.

Is sizing up, Xue Qingqiu passes on the sound said: “Do not lose face, the World Suppressing Cauldron replica, had certain aura.”

Xue Mu nods, steps into the front door with her shoulder to shoulder.

Xiahou Di stands in the front door waits, some side two people companions. A longhaired man, is quite actually martial-looking, wears the Six Gates uniform/subdue, the waist hangs jade token. Another does not need supple the wheat flour youth, the appearance very mother, the clothes seem like not like Six Gates. Two people see the Xue Family sister and brother to pass through the gate, arched cupping one hand in the other across the chest: “Honored guest is in front of the goal, I and others has not welcomed, was disrespectful.”

Xiahou Di flings the cloak, turns around to walk toward in: “Do not play these empty, Sect Master Xue did not speak that set. Comes.”

Just passed through the gate, saw a flagpole to reach to the sky, on the flagpole hung several heads impressively, the dripping with blood, the head appearance such as lived, before dying the astonished expression to retain continually completely.

Sees the new head/number of people suddenly, that disgusting impulse really does not have a look at the television to realize, the Xue Mu stomach twitched, has almost not spat. Has not eaten meal fortunately, in belly completely empty, without is so easy to spit, good and evil not disgraceful.

Xue Qingqiu looks but not see, indifferently across flagpole. The Xiahou Di front leads the way, the scarlet cloak flutters backward, looks in the Xue Mu eye like the blood-color.

The place of Xiahou Di invitation is Six Gates headquarters side hall, the meaning is about the regular officer surface cooperation, the meaning of official invitation. When looks like the modern official business, the brother unit invited the visit, and please have meals in a cafeteria? Approximately similar meaning, what symbolized is intimate, is heart of secure Ruoji the Xue Mu, if such invitation instead begins to detain the person to kill people, this matter passes on, Six Gates on the joke by Jiang Hu to the grandmother family/home, will not unless it is absolutely essential have this bad plan.

Entered side hall gravely, the arrangement but actually also simple, suspends round table that could not publicize, is allowing 56 people to take a seat.

When Xiahou Di first sat, said at will: “Sits, no hosts and visitors positions, troublesome.”

Xue Qingqiu then and Xue Mu sits hand in hand, the supple youth and martial-looking man look at each other one, the look a little are strange, has not said anything, sits with somebody in the surplus vacancies.

both sides are sizing up, the thought thing has the difference respectively.

The convention, two people feast, very natural sits in the master about respectively, is the meaning of hosts and visitors. But this did not speak this set to the sister and brother, unexpectedly selfish by sitting...... said that did not speak the etiquette, may look that the attitude did not look like, always thought that they were want to sit together resembled...... were really the sister and brother?

Xue Mu thinks is not this Eight Trigrams (gossip), sees martial-looking male waist jade token, he remembered that «Chronicle» in compiles Xue Qingqiu to kill three golden token constable. According to such looks like, perhaps the sign color is the rank in Six Gates symbolized, jade token that if this cooperation meets at present must be the highest rank, the meaning of Xiahou Di left and right hands, the golden token position next best.

Cannot arrange Xue Qingqiu to kill jade token, because jade token is the well-known powerhouse, the head/number of people have several, how many have no way writing in good condition dead, let alone dies the matter that jade token also vacillates the Six Gates prestige, therefore can only dead golden token...... think of here, Xue Mu thought suddenly Six Gates this propaganda is not bad, only detail manifests the fundamental law very much, should say that worthily is the authority? This posture level obviously is higher than a scale Star and Moon Sect this type of organized crime.

Quick has the start end liquor of yamen runner appearance to serve food, carries one glass of liquor until this moment Xue Qingqiu, opens the mouth saying: “This time late came, to let wait for a long time.”

The martial-looking man shakes the head saying: “How long actually without, Pleasure Seeking Pavilion had/left the matter, some of our also people process, just came back.”

Xue Qingqiu visits him, the look somewhat is quite prudent: “According to this eminence knows, although Six Gates Entering the Dao are many, Insightful Emptiness only person.”

The martial-looking man arched cupping one hand in the other across the chest, looks solemn: “Xuan Zhe has seen Sect Master Xue, has heard so much about you.”

“Really is Mighty and Solemn Marquis.” Xue Qingqiu smiles, turns the head to introduce to Xue Mu: “The Six Gates first expert, prestige illustrious. It seems like Six Gates this sincerity quite foot.”

Insightful Emptiness? Marquis? This took a broad view at the royal government and Jiang Hu calculates the super big shot. Xue Mu hurried to say a greeting on first meeting greeting on first meeting, in the heart pondered a Xiahou Di young younger sister to blow Six Gates secretly, mostly was the result of this big shot full power support. No wonder Xiahou Di was guessed is the emperor illegitimate daughter, it seems like really has that a flavor.

The supple youth said with a smile: “This is the sincerity of royal government.”

Xue Qingqiu nods: “This thinks that is Flower Accompanying Venerable Eunuch Li?”

The supple youth raises glass to hint: “Me, in the palace the person, inexpensive is degrading sect master to listen clear.”

Xue Mu understood, no wonder the makings are outwardly submissive but inwardly evil-hearted, originally is a court eunuch...... the court eunuch is also known as Flower Accompanying Venerable, that anything......

“Liking thunder reverberating in one's ears is.” Is Xue Qingqiu actually does not haggle over others a court eunuch, lifts a veil corner/horn slightly, raised glass sipped liquor lightly, very show due respect for feelings.

The beginning atmosphere is good, Xue Qingqiu shows due respect for the feelings, obviously is knows that the general situation significance of this banquet, in even/including Gong came the person, the revering of Insightful Emptiness powerhouse and marquis to be invited along, obviously was not acting cool time.

Xue Mu then also respected one person of one cup to indicate to like thunder reverberating in one's ears, salutes upon meeting, Xue Mu continued following the thread of conversation: “That side Pleasure Seeking Pavilion present what result?”

That Eunuch Li looked at Xue Mu one, in the eye the meaning of somewhat unusual inquiring about, in the surface actually gave one “charmingly” happy expression: “Joyous Union Sect suffers a loss, but there is a eldest imperial prince swivel, pours also unmanned casualty. However Young Master Xue recently feared that must pay attention to some, the idea of young master, everyone tasted now, is difficult to hold the person hatred/enemy record to the young master on.”

“In Jiang Hu to float, where can not be stabbed, comes.” Xue Mu seems like at will typical: “The matter on Jiang Hu, having the elder sister protects me to be complete, if...... Chief Constable Xiahou will guarantee me from the deliberation hall in any case.”

Xiahou Di smile however: “Do your I cooperate to turn over to the cooperation, the matter outside cooperation, why this eminence to guarantee you?”

Xue Mu said leisurely: “Aren't the eldest imperial prince 23 matters, Chief Constable Xiahou tell me? Xue made in a chief constable hand the blade, chief constable cannot dismantle the bridge after crossing.”

Eunuch Li and Xuan Zhe look at each other one, the look somewhat are prudent, Xue Qingqiu watches, flashes through the happy expression.

Actually the matter that when the spear/gun causes she has been very clear, but the manner must do for oneself, at this moment looks at people's response, obviously was, this type felt how to say...... felt finally one time oneself are not worse than Xue Mu many, wants to go together, quite a little relaxes.

If always looked like a Hundred Flower Garden chaotic time idea not to have a moment ago, but Xue Mu processed conveniently, long this got down not to know that can suspect oneself were retarded.

Xiahou Di is narrowing the eye, looked at Xue Mu one, sighed: “Actually this eminence has believed, Young Master Xue this person should not belong to Jiang Hu, does not mix the deliberation hall to be a little a pity actually. If you intend, this eminence can recommend for you, seeks a duty.”

The Xue Qingqiu look transfers instantaneously severely.

“That does not use.” Xue Mu snatches before Xue Qingqiu manifests suddenly laughs, holds up the wine glass to hint: “Xue to deliberation hall not slightly interest. However at present and Chief Constable Xiahou was also the friend, if what useful Xue place, although told.”

“?” Xiahou Di raises glass, has not actually drunk near the lip, slightly revolving: “Then with the matter of eldest imperial prince, Mr. Xue does not enter the deliberation hall, how to help me? Feared that is which our conflict in does not even clarify.”

Although expresses the question, but “this eminence” turned into “me” pours also calculates that approves “friend who” Xue Mu said meaning. Xue Mu smiles: “The national capital ground, the public security is not easy, the following brothers wear out, ought to fall some advantage.”

Xiahou Di is still revolving the cup, the sharp eye is staring at Xue Mu straightly, waiting as follows.

Xuan Zhe also looks solemn, attaches great importance to this topic very much.

Xue Mu continues said: “The brothel hotel casino, the bailiff yamen runners can fish an member somewhat, looks for elder sister also easily...... to be possible some nobilities emperor's relatives played the monopoly, the brothers lost the advantage, the complaint for a long time. chief constable in its, should seek an advantage to be right to the brothers.”

Xiahou Di silent was very long, finally raises head, in drink/nurse Jin cup liquor, hinted to Xue Mu: “The matter of this petty official marketplace, the young master also quite knows the way unexpectedly, actually unexpected. Like the ordinary Jiang Hu person, does not pay attention to the petty official mostly.”

The implied meaning acknowledged oneself and eldest imperial prince contradiction just like the Xue Mu analysis, at least this is a reason.

Xue Mu also drinks up the liquor, said with a smile: “Xue, although in Jiang Hu, but the places of some people have Jiang Hu, the truth is often interlinked.”

Xiahou Di shakes the head to smile: “Said is.”

Xue Mu said suddenly: “I thought that another words, chief constable likes listening.”

Xiahou Di is really even more attaches great importance to the Xue Mu speech at this moment, asked very much earnestly: “Which?”

Xue Mu is adding the liquor, said easely: “A Jiang Hu rivers and mountains corner.”

The Xiahou Di beautiful eye flashes through the extraordinary splendor, Xuan Zhe closely is pinching the wine glass, two people also change countenance.

A Jiang Hu rivers and mountains corner, above Jiang Hu person how could domination royal government? Was the Xiahou Di Xuan Zhe life asked that how could it not be for this reason? Xue Mu simple a few words, straight such as the sharp sword jabs into two will of the people bottoms, such as drinks the alcohol to ferment.

Eunuch Li looked at Xue Qingqiu one, the facial expression measured not. In the scene is Xue Mu in chatty, as master of a sect Xue Qingqiu unexpectedly like the young wife same, whatever he displays, oneself did not say a word, this subverted the cognition simply. May to this moment, Eunuch Li understand actually why Xue Mu can occupy the initiative, you looked that even at present this Six Gates hosts and visitors transpose, what unusual can Xue Mu occupy the leadership to have before his elder sister?

This Xue Mu does not enter the Star and Moon Sect disciple to call damn, his useless any cultivation technique, merely is the expression of speaking thoughtlessly, can go straight to the will of the people frailest place, what the effect and Yinye has to distinguish?
