Chapter 796: Deep Blood Feud, Irreconcilable
Su Mingzhe brought Lao Huang and Xu Fengnian to the mountain god temple. He waved his sleeves to shake off the dust and dirt on the cushion in front of the mountain god's altar.

Then he sat down in the middle first, and then gave Lao Huang and Xu Fengnian a cushion each, and said with a gentle smile:

"Uncle Master, please sit down."

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Old Huang saw that Su Mingzhe's martial arts skills were displayed casually, and it seemed that he had reached the master level of returning to nature and everything was natural. He couldn't help but feel excited and asked immediately:
"Your Highness, have you learned the sword manual left by your senior brother?"

The master of Lao Huang and his senior brother Su Mao is Sui Xiegu, the 'sword-eating ancestor'.

Sui Xiegu was as famous as the former "Sword God" Li Chungang. The two had a competition and exchanged arms.

At that time, Li Chungang called himself: "If Heaven had not given birth to me, Li Chungang, the sword path would have been in darkness forever."

Sui Xiegu called himself: "There are three million sword immortals in the sky, and they all bow their heads when they see me."

Such a rebellious Sui Xiegu had a total of two and a half apprentices, namely the Western Shu prince Su Mao, 'Sword Nine Yellow' Huang Zhentu, and later 'Wooden Swordsman' Wen Hua.

Su Mao was the former "Sword Emperor of Western Shu" and the uncle of Su Su and Su Mingzhe. When Xu Xiao broke through the Western Shu Imperial City, he was trampled into a pulp by the Northern Liang cavalry.

The tragic death of Sword Emperor Su Mao would rank among the top three in the hundreds of years of national wars in the Spring and Autumn Period!

Therefore, after the fall of Western Shu, Lao Huang went to Northern Liang with the blood feud of his master, hoping to seek revenge on Xu Xiao.

Before leaving, he gave the sword manual that Sui Xiegu had given to the Sword Emperor Su Mao to the brothers Su Su and Su Mingzhe.

At this moment, hearing Lao Huang's question, Su Mingzhe smiled gently and said:

"Uncle Master, I have not only learned the sword canon of my great master, but also created a unique Tai Chi Sword Canon. I will demonstrate it to you later!"

Su Mingzhe felt a little comforted when he saw Lao Huang's excited expression.

Although Lao Huang has worked as a servant in the Beiliang Palace for twenty years, his heart still belongs to Xishu.

That's good!

very good!

Lao Huang and Su Mingzhe asked each other about their recent life, and the topic eventually turned to old times.

"Uncle Master, when we left Xishu and headed for Beimang, was it your idea or Xu Xiao's?"

When smart people talk to each other, they speak briefly and to the point.

Old Huang saw that Su Mingzhe didn't even ask why he was working in the Beiliang Palace, and directly asked another key point, his face slightly embarrassed:

"Your Highness, when I tried to assassinate Xu Xiao, I failed. The King of Beiliang, Xu Xiao, agreed to forgive me as long as I let you move to Beimang."

"And then, you will be a slave in the Beiliang Palace, right?"

Su Mingzhe sighed, and looked at Lao Huang with a little more gratitude, and at the same time, looked at Xu Fengnian with a little more murderous intent.

The once world-famous 'Jiuhuang Sword' yellow array diagram was willing to serve as a slave for twenty years in the enemy's house just to protect the descendants of his former master.

Even in these twenty years, how many people know Lao Huang's loyalty, understand how compromising his life was, and how depressed and melancholy he lived?

Seeing Su Mingzhe's grateful eyes, Lao Huang wanted to deny it, but after the two looked into each other's eyes, he knew that he couldn't hide this matter, so in the end, he could only smile bitterly and said:

"Yes."

After admitting the past, the heavy thoughts that had accumulated in Lao Huang's heart for twenty years were suddenly released:

"Although I have been a slave to my enemy for twenty years, it is worth it to be able to receive such deep affection from His Majesty the Third Prince!"

"Good! Good! Good!"

When Su Mingzhe heard Lao Huang admit it himself, the murderous look in his eyes subsided.

As the old saying goes, too many lice don't itch, and too many debts don't worry.

Twenty years ago, Xu Xiao attacked Western Shu, the Sword Emperor Su Mao was trampled into a pulp, 60,000 troops were burned to death, and nearly one million Western Shu people died tragically.

Such deep-rooted national hatred and family feuds are irreconcilable.

Now that Lao Huang is forced to become a slave, the hatred is growing deeper.

However, Su Mingzhe was not in a hurry to cause trouble for Xu Xiao.

After entering the mountain temple, Xu Fengnian, who had been silent all the time, noticed the murderous look in Su Mingzhe's eyes. He suddenly felt a chill on his back and shivered uncontrollably all over.

Seeing Su Mingzhe's expression changing constantly and looking at him from time to time, Xu Fengnian was just a playboy at this time, so how could he bear such a strong murderous aura?

Unable to help but feel terrified, he laughed and said:

"Third Prince, if you want to kill Xu Xiao, just go ahead and kill him. This has nothing to do with me. In fact, Xu Xiao and I don't have a good relationship either. I also wanted to kill him!"

"Don't worry, I won't kill you!"

Su Mingzhe glanced at Xu Fengnian coldly. To outsiders, this guy was a pure playboy, similar to Jia Baoyu in "Dream of Red Mansions".

In fact, Xu Fengnian is not only the reincarnation of the First Emperor of Qin and the Great Emperor Zhenwu, but in this life, he also gathers the remaining luck of the six kingdoms, the martial arts world, and the major aristocratic families in one body.

As long as the right opportunity comes, Xu Fengnian will be able to make the leap and reach the top of the world in one fell swoop.

Knowing Xu Fengnian's situation, Su Mingzhe was not in a hurry to cause trouble for him. Instead, he said word by word in a cold tone:

"Xu Fengnian, your father Xu Xiao ordered eight hundred Beiliang cavalrymen to trample my uncle into a pulp!"

"He also killed my father with his own hands and forced my mother to commit suicide!"

"The hatred of destroying a country and destroying a family, the hatred of killing one's father and mother, are irreconcilable!"

"It would be too easy for you if I killed you in this wilderness now!"

Su Mingzhe took the initiative to merge the memories of the original owner, and also inherited the hatred towards Beiliang. When he said these words at this moment, a powerful aura was released from his body, instantly oppressing Xu Fengnian's chest, making it stuffy and choking and unable to breathe.

Fortunately, Su Mingzhe's powerful aura was only released for a moment and then restrained.

"Yes, yes, yes, you can't let me get away with it!"

Xu Fengnian has not yet undergone the transformation, at least he still thinks of himself as a playboy.

Seeing Su Mingzhe's murderous intentions exposed, Xu Fengnian almost scared himself to death. He felt like he was about to piss himself, his face was as pale as earth, and his eyes were full of panic.

Seeing him like this, Su Mingzhe couldn't help but reveal a hint of contempt in his smile:
"Xu Fengnian, although I won't kill you today, it is only natural that a son should pay for his father's debt."

"Your father Xu Xiao has two sons and two daughters. In addition to you, your sister Xu Zhihu married Lu Qinquan, the son of Lu Xuanlang, a Confucian semi-sage in Yangzhou, Jiangnan. Your second sister Xu Weixiong is studying at Shangyin Academy."

"Your father made my uncle serve as a slave in your Beiliang Palace for twenty years. I will capture your two sisters as my slaves, and they will work together to pay off their father's debts!"

"This is called tit for tat, karma goes round and round, retribution will come!"

Su Mingzhe said, then he laughed, stood up, and prepared to implement his revenge plan.

Xu Fengnian's face changed drastically when he heard this, and he immediately stood up to stop him, telling Su Mingzhe to use whatever means he had on him and not to hurt his two sisters.

Old Huang stopped Su Mingzhe before Xu Fengnian could speak, with a look of embarrassment in his eyes and a pleading voice:

"Third Prince, this injustice has its perpetrators, and this debt has its creditors. You have now achieved great success in your cultivation and have become a first-class master. You can seek revenge on Xu Xiao. There is no need to seek revenge on these two women, right?"

"Uncle Master, you don't have to persuade me!"

Su Mingzhe knew that Lao Huang had lived in the Beiliang Palace for twenty years and had watched Xu Zhihu and Xu Weixiong grow up, so there must be a certain emotional foundation between them.

Therefore, facing Lao Huang's dissuasion, Su Mingzhe was not angry, but explained to him:

"Uncle Master, the Art of War says: 'To conquer the enemy without fighting is the best of all strategies. Therefore, the best strategy is to attack their plans, the next best is to attack their alliances, the next best is to attack their troops, and the worst is to attack their cities.'"

"When I go to seek revenge on Xu Xiao, it will definitely be the time for me to restore the Kingdom of Western Shu!"

"However, before I restore the Kingdom of Western Shu, I cannot let Xu Xiao continue to sit comfortably on his throne of Northern Liang!"

"So, it is imperative to capture Xu Zhihu and Xu Weixiong to strike a blow to Xu Xiao's arrogance."

Old Huang wanted to persuade him, but Su Mingzhe stretched out his hand to stop him and continued:

"Uncle Master, you don't need to persuade me with words like 'a gentleman is a man of virtue' and 'the misfortune will not affect my family'!"

"Back then, when Xu Xiao conquered the six kingdoms, in order to capture the strong cities, he captured many of the wives and children of the generals defending the cities and slaughtered them on the battlefield to intimidate and confuse the generals defending the cities!"

"I am going to capture Xu Zhihu and Xu Weixiong now, just to learn from him, Xu Xiao!"

"You can't just allow Xu Xiao to set the fire and not allow me to light the lamp!"

Su Mingzhe spoke, without further ado, and immediately threw out his sword, flying directly towards Yangzhou in the south of the Yangtze River.

Old Huang watched Su Mingzhe fly away on his sword, and had no time to intercept him. He felt bitter inwardly:

"It's bad! The Third Prince can already fly with a sword. His strength is at least at the Mystical Realm, or even the Celestial Realm! I wonder if the Confucian Semi-Saint from the Jiangnan Lu Family can protect the eldest lady!"

"Fly? He flew?"

Xu Fengnian, who had never seen a first-class master, was stunned at this moment:

"Old Huang, am I dazzled or am I dreaming? Did that... that Third Prince just fly away?"

"Yes, it flew."

Old Huang did not fool his dandy prince like he did in the past, but sighed and said:
"Master, you should learn martial arts. You won't suffer any loss if you learn martial arts, and you won't be fooled if you learn martial arts..."

When Xu Fengnian, the dandy prince, heard the groom Lao Huang start chanting again, he immediately waved his hands in annoyance:
"Old Huang, can you fly?"

"Yeah, a little bit!"

Old Huang nodded with a slightly shy look.

His realm is the Xuan realm, and he can barely fly, but the flying distance is not very far.

"Then fly one for me to see!"

Xu Fengnian seemed a little bit unbelievable, or rather a little curious, and looked at his groom, Lao Huang, with sharp eyes.

"Master, I can't fly far. I can only fly this far."

As Old Huang spoke, he stretched out his hand and gestured forward.

Based on his gesture, he didn't know whether Xu Fengnian could understand how far it was.

However, Xu Fengnian had already taken the initiative to skip this topic and turned to ask the next question:
"Is that man just now really the Third Prince of Western Shu? Will he cause trouble for my eldest and second sisters?"

This time, Lao Huang answered honestly:
"He really is the Third Prince of Western Shu... and he will indeed cause trouble for your eldest and second sisters!"

"Will my elder sister and second sister be in danger? Can the Jiangnan Lu family and Shangyin Academy protect my elder sister and second sister?"

Xu Fengnian's question made Lao Huang a little unsure of how to answer. After thinking for a while, he explained:

"Master, there are many old monsters in the Shangyin Academy where the Second Miss is. They should be able to protect the Second Miss."

"And the eldest lady is in some danger. The Jiangnan Lu family only has one Confucian semi-saint, whose cultivation has barely passed the first rank. If the Lu family uses all their strength, they may be able to protect the eldest lady. Otherwise..."

"Doesn't that mean my elder sister will be in danger?"

When Xu Fengnian heard this, he immediately became anxious:

"We must quickly tell Xu Xiao this news and ask him to send someone to rescue my elder sister!"
