Start with Hinata and travel through the heavens

Chapter 339 Xu Fengnian’s Crowning Ceremony and Listening to the Appearance in Chao Pavilion

After drinking the fish soup, Xu Fengnian's affairs in Wudang Mountain were over.

Sure enough, when Xu Fengnian was walking, he saw Chu Lushan running wildly on the mountain road from a distance.

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Lu Qiu'er came late, Your Majesty has suffered!"

Xu Fengnian knew it was time to go home, but Xu Fengnian looked around and found no trace of Hinata Hoshino. Hong Xixiang looked at Xu Fengnian searching everywhere and spoke to remind him.

"Your Majesty, there is no need to look for him. Mr. Zhang has already gone back."

Xu Fengnian nodded, "As expected of a powerful man, one step can take a thousand miles."

Xu Fengnian followed Chu Lushan back to the Beiliang Palace. Before leaving, Jiang Ni looked at Wudang Mountain with a little reluctance. Everything here was not as luxurious as the Beiliang Palace, but she had her own residence here.

Hinata Hoshino took one step out of Wudang Mountain, and the next moment he appeared in his own courtyard in Beiliang Prince's Mansion. Not long after, Xu Xiao hurried over.

"Mr. Zhang, how is my son Fengnian?"

Hinata Hoshino looked at Xu Xiao and felt that his parents had worked hard, "It's good. Wang Zhonglou's Dahuang Court has been passed down, and Lao Huang has also learned a lot of swordsmanship."

Xu Xiao feels that Xu Fengnian has done a good job. Even if he has Xu Xiao paving the way, how much he can achieve depends on himself.

Before Xu Fengnian returned to the Northern Liang Palace, a pair of honor guards slowly entered Liangzhou City.

Hinata Hoshino looked towards the city gate, which aroused Xu Xiao's curiosity, "Sir, what are you looking at again?"

"Zhao Xituan is here, isn't it shown in your intelligence?"

Xu Xiao pondered for a moment and remembered the information about Zhao Xituan. "There is indeed information that Zhao Xituan left Longhu Mountain, but there is no clear indication of Zhao Xituan's whereabouts."

"Zhao Xituan's lineage is very special in Longhu Mountain, and the requirements for successors are very high. Therefore, Zhao Xituan has never found a suitable successor. He probably came here to accept Xu Longxiang as his disciple."

Xu Xiao was silent for a moment and began to think about the pros and cons of this matter. Should Huang Man'er be allowed to become a disciple of Zhao Xituan? Xu Xiao knew very well that people like Zhao Xituan valued inheritance, which was more important than life.

A servant came to report, "Your Majesty, Heavenly Master Zhao Xituan from Longhu Mountain is visiting."

Xu Xiao thought that when Cao Cao arrived, he said, "Go to the living room to welcome the Heavenly Master."

"Yes."

After the servants retreated, Xu Xiao looked at Hinata Hoshino, "Sir, do you want to come with us?"

Zhao Xituan, the Celestial Master on Longhu Mountain, is dressed in Taoist robes, has fair hair and a childlike face, and is full of energy.

Zhao Xituan came to Beiliang Prince's Mansion on this trip to find a disciple with extraordinary abilities - Xu Longxiang.

Zhao Xituan, as the Four Heavenly Master of Longhu Mountain, is famous in the world. Unfortunately, even at his old age, he has not found a successor who is willing to follow his heart.

Xu Longxiang, the second son of Northern Liang King Xu Xiao, attracted the attention of Zhao Xituan. According to rumors, Xu Longxiang was born with supernatural powers. In Zhao Xituan's view, Xu Longxiang might be his best successor.

Xu Longxiang is said to be born in the Vajra realm. Once his spiritual wisdom is opened, he can directly reach the realm of celestial phenomena, which is jealous of heaven.

Xu Xiao and Hinata Hoshino came to the living room, and Zhao Xituan left his entourage and entered Beiliang Prince's Mansion alone. If it weren't for Longhu Mountain's pompous requirements for Tianshi's actions, Zhao Xituan really wanted to come to Beiliang Prince's Mansion alone.

"Zhao Xituan has met the prince and this gentleman."

When Zhao Xituan saw Hinata Hoshino, he could also feel that Hinata Hoshino was extraordinary, which was caused by being too ordinary.

"Hehehe, you're welcome."

Xu Xiao laughed like a goose, and Zhao Xituan looked at Xu Xiao with the same smile, "Your Majesty, I am here to recruit a disciple. I wonder if Your Majesty can give up my love?"

Xu Xiao pretended to be surprised, "Is there such an expert in my house? Can he be favored by Master Zhao?"

"It's none other than Mr. Ling, Xu Longxiang."

"My Huang Man'er still has this kind of talent."

Zhao Xituan saw Xu Xiao's excuse and swore to the sky, "I, Zhao Xituan, swear to the sky that if the young prince can become my disciple, he will definitely treat it as a treasure. Anyone who wants to bully the young prince must first step on the body of the old man."

Xu Xiao stared into Zhao Xituan's eyes quietly, and finally confirmed that Zhao Xituan was not joking, "Okay, but I need to ask Huang Man'er for his opinion."

Xu Xiao brought Zhao Xituan and Hinata Hoshino to Xu Longxiang, who was flying a kite with the maid in his yard.

"Little prince, slow down, you're running too fast!"

Xu Longxiang saw Xu Xiao arriving and said, "Dad."

"Okay, okay, Huang Man'er, this is Zhao Xituan, he wants to accept you as his disciple."

Xu Longxiang was not interested in Zhao Xituan. Xu Longxiang continued to look at his kite. He completely ignored Zhao Xituan's invitation to become a disciple. Xu Longxiang did not understand what a master-disciple meant at all.

Zhao Xituan was not angry. He knew that Xu Longxiang was not yet enlightened and needed to use some special way to impress him. So, he decided to show his sincerity.

Martial arts cannot impress Xu Longxiang. Xu Longxiang's own extraordinary strength cannot attract Xu Longxiang.

Zhao Xituan thought for a while and prepared to attract Xu Longxiang with delicious food, drinks and fun, "Little Prince, I have all kinds of rare birds and animals there, the scenery is unique, and there are all kinds of fruits. After the Little Prince comes to my place, what do you want to eat? What, play whatever you want."

Zhao Xituan looked at Xu Longxiang with a smile. Xu Longxiang glanced at Zhao Xituan and felt bored. His life in the mansion seemed to be similar to what Zhao Xituan described, and there was Xu Fengnian in Beiliang Palace.

In Xu Longxiang's view, Xu Fengnian was the best to him in the world. Only Xu Fengnian would wipe Xu Longxiang's mouth with his sleeves, so Xu Longxiang felt that he should be the best to Xu Fengnian and try his best.

Hinata and Hoshino all admired the deep brotherhood between Xu Fengnian and Xu Longxiang, exchanging sincerity for sincerity.

Xu Longxiang continued to fly the kite, and this scene was seen by Xu Xiao, the king of Northern Liang.

With Hinata Hoshino's introduction and Zhao Xituan's oath, Xu Xiao decided to believe Zhao Xituan.

Moreover, judging from the current situation, if Xu Longxiang temporarily leaves the Northern Liang Palace, the pressure on Xu Fengnian's hereditary replacement will be greatly reduced.

Xu Xiao looked at Xu Longxiang and secretly cursed his cruelty. He felt even more guilty about Wu Su. He promised Wu Su to protect Xu Longxiang, but for Xu Fengnian, he had to be cruel.

Xu Xiao approached Xu Longxiang, and Xu Longxiang looked at Xu Xiao in confusion.

Xu Xiao sighed, "Huang Man'er, come with me. I have something to tell you about Feng Nian."

When Xu Longxiang heard what was said about Xu Fengnian, he handed the kite string in his hand to the maid aside and walked aside with Xu Xiao.

Xu Xiao tried his best to think of words, "Huang Man'er, do you know that your stay in Beiliang Prince's Mansion will be detrimental to Feng Nian?"

"What? Would it be bad for me if I were here?"

Xu Xiao nodded, "Yes, so I want to send you away temporarily. After it has no impact on Fengnian, I will let Fengnian take you back. Do you think so?"

Xu Xiao is coaxing the child. It is useless to state the pros and cons to the child. He must persuade the child in a way that the child can understand.

After Xu Xiao left with Xu Longxiang, only Hinata Hoshino and Zhao Xituan were left at the scene, "I've heard of you, Zhao Xituan, the last conscience of Longhu Mountain." Zhao Xituan sighed, unable to refute, "Since Qi Xuan frame ascended, Long Hushan Hushan is indeed starting to become a place of filth and evil."

"A Zhao Huangchao and a Zhao Xuansu, your Longhu Mountain harbors filth and people and practices, both are light."

"Zhao Xuansu?"

Zhao Xituan was shocked. An ancestor of this level was still in Longhu Mountain. How could he not know?

"He is just a person who is afraid of death. His purpose is similar to that of Zhao Huangchao. They are all from Tianmen."

Zhao Xituan sighed, "How come these old seniors are so greedy for life and afraid of death!"

When Zhao Xituan sighed, Xu Xiao returned with Xu Longxiang. Xu Longxiang looked at Zhao Xituan and asked, "Old Taoist priest, are there any hawthorns on the mountain?"

Zhao Xituan nodded, "Yes, there are many hawthorn trees. Does the young prince like to eat hawthorns?"

"No, my brother likes it. Can I pick all the hawthorns?"

"Of course you can, but from now on, the young prince must call me master."

"Good old Taoist priest."

Zhao Xituan sighed helplessly and prepared to leave with Xu Longxiang. Xu Xiao expressed his gratitude to Zhao Xituan, "Thank you very much, and be kinder to Huang Man'er."

Zhao Xituan nodded, "This is natural, inheritance is more important than my life."

Half a month after Zhao Xituan and Xu Longxiang left Beiliang Palace, Xu Fengnian returned to Beiliang Palace.

When Xu Fengnian returned to the Northern Liang Palace, he wanted to find Xu Longxiang, but Xu Fengnian had some ominous premonitions.

Searching around, Xu Fengnian found no trace of Xu Longxiang. Xu Fengnian rushed directly into Xu Xiao's study, "Xu Xiao, where is Huang Man'er? Let me ask you, where is Huang Man'er?"

Xu Xiao felt embarrassed for a while, "He went to Longhu Mountain."

"Longhu Mountain! Do you know that sending Huang Man'er to Longhu Mountain is equivalent to handing Huang Man'er over to the Liyang royal family!"

Xu Xiao sighed, "You know, I have no other choice, and Zhao Xituan will protect Huang Man'er."

"Zhao Xituan, one of the Four Heavenly Masters? What is the difference between him and the others in Longhu Mountain?"

"Huang Man'er is the heir to his legacy."

Xu Fengnian wanted to say something else, but Lao Huang, who was following Xu Fengnian, stopped Xu Fengnian, "The prince is right. For people like Zhao Xituan, inheriting the mantle is more important than anything else."

Xu Fengnian's face softened slightly, "Xu Xiao, don't forget, you promised my mother to protect Huang Man'er."

"I know, but this is the only way. After you actually take over the throne of Beiliang, you can take back Huang Man'er, and you can take back your eldest sister and second sister. Don't you want this?"

"you!"

Xu Fengnian could only say you in the end, and Xu Xiao sighed again, "I originally planned to tell you some things when you come back, but now it seems that I have to wait a little longer."

Two months later, it snowed heavily.

At the top of Jiuhua Mountain, heavy snow is flying and the wind is biting. A middle-aged man dressed in brocade clothes stood proudly. This is Xu Xiao, King of Northern Liang. His eyes are firm and he has no intention of shrinking in the face of the wind and snow.

On this day, he will hold a crowning ceremony for his son Xu Fengnian to prove Xu Fengnian's growth. At the same time, after today, he should also think of ways to ensure Xu Fengnian's hereditary succession.

Behind Xu Xiao, a group of armored soldiers stood solemnly. They were the guardians in the heavy snow, firmly guarding this solemn ceremony.

As time goes by, the snowflakes in the sky gradually become sparse. A ray of sunlight penetrated the clouds and fell on Xu Xiao's body, as if it was a blessing from God. At this time, a melodious music sounded, it was high-pitched and passionate, and a bit tragic.

With the accompaniment of music, Xu Xiao personally put the first crown on Xu Fengnian. The process of the crown ceremony consisted of three wearings and three takings.

Xu Xiao's eyes were full of expectations and blessings for his son. He hoped that Xu Fengnian could carry the banner of Beiliang.

The crowning ceremony in the heavy snow was carried out peacefully and solemnly. Xu Xiao paved a glorious road for Xu Fengnian, but he still needs to walk the road ahead himself.

As the ceremony ended, the snow fell again. Northern Liang King Xu Xiao and his son Xu Fengnian stood side by side, facing the wind and snow, their figures became more and more determined.

"Feng Nian, look at us. Beiliang is right in front of you. To the whole world, Beiliang is nothing more than that. But to the soldiers and people of Beiliang, it is everything."

Xu Fengnian looked at Beiliang at his feet and remained silent.

Xu Xiao looked at Xu Fengnian and felt that the time had come, "Come back with me to Chaoting. There are some things I should tell you."

Xu Fengnian came to Tingchao Pavilion, and Hinata Hoshino held the five-fire seven-animal fan to keep Xuanyuan Qingfeng and Nangong Pushe warm.

Xuanyuan Qingfeng gently caressed the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan, "What is the name of this fan?"

"The Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan looks like a colorful feather fan. Its charm spreads out, its majestic aura fills the sky, and its vast divine power suppresses all directions. This precious fan has phoenix wings, green luan wings, roc wings, and peacock wings. Wings, white crane wings, swan wings, owl wings, seven bird feathers, and five fires: fire in the sky, fire in the stone, fire in the wood, samadhi fire, and human fire. There are talismans and formulas on them, and there are poems on the reverse side. .”

Xuanyuan Qingfeng turned over the fan to take a look, and muttered softly, "Five fire rare treasures are called Qi Ling. The Sui people first came out of Bingliying. The strange rocks in the mountains turned into ashes, and when they met the sea, they were fried to dry and exposed little to nothing."

Hinata Hoshino took back the Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan, "The poem on this fan is not exaggerated. The real Five Fires and Seven Birds Fan does have this ability. Unfortunately, this fan is an imitation and is less powerful."

Xu Fengnian looked at the red light in the Tingchao Pavilion and thought that the Tingchao Pavilion was on fire. He hurried into the Tingchao Pavilion and only saw Hinata Hoshino holding a fan. The red light he saw was the light of the fan.

"Mr. Zhang, what are you doing?"

"Heating, don't you feel that the entire Tingchao Pavilion is warm?"

As soon as Hinata Hoshino finished speaking, Xu Fengnian felt that he was indeed a little hot and slightly sweating. Xu Fengnian took off his cloak and felt better.

"Is Xu Fengnian here to see Li Yishan?"

Xu Fengnian shook his head, "No, it was Xu Xiao who asked me to come."

Hinata Hoshino put his hand on the ground of Tingchao Pavilion, and activated the magic machine Bailian to instantly refine Tingchao Pavilion's mechanism.

"Kakakaka."

Hearing the Chaoting mechanism open, revealing the passage leading to the underground, Nangong Pushe suddenly realized when he saw the secret passage, "No wonder, when Qingfeng and I were practicing martial arts before, we stepped on the ground with all our strength, feeling that there was still space underground."

Hinata Hoshino chuckled, "Xu Fengnian, you studied under Li Yishan, do you understand the theory of luck?"

"Luck? I don't know much about it. Do you have any explanation?"

"Tingchao Pavilion has six floors above and three floors below, totaling nine floors. According to the number of nine and nine, it means that the cool python transforms into a dragon."

Xu Fengnian realized that Xu Xiao did have ambitions. Liang python refers to the luck of Beiliang, and transforming into a dragon means proclaiming himself emperor.

"Xu Xiao's ambition is so big? Then why didn't he..."

Hinata Hoshino looked at Xu Fengnian, "You really don't know? Then you'll find out later."
