Chapter 44

Liu Baiyun, first-rate expert.

When she was young, she didn't walk the Jianghu much, mainly practicing Wu Gong and teaching disciples in the sect, so she had no reputation. In recent years, the Five Mountains Sword Sects integrated, and she represented the Huashan Sect in the Central Plains Jianghu, only then did she start to make a name for herself in the Wu Lin.

Because of her old-fashioned means and superb Wu Gong, she is considered an outstanding female expert in the Jianghu in recent years.

As mentioned before, there is no unified standard for whether one is first-rate or not, but only look at how large the range your name can work in and how long you can keep this name.

Li Miao is standing high and looking far, can see the other party's internal Qi, strength, and moves at a glance, so he can roughly judge what level the other party is.

Using the games of Li Miao's previous life as a metaphor, it is a person's rank, which depends on whether this person can stay in this rank and how long he can stay. Others judge your level, generally looking at your rank logo—that is, reputation.

Like Li Miao's level of players, you can directly judge the other party's approximate level from a movement or a pull of the other party.

And his classification standard is naturally based on Shuntian Prefecture—which can also be called Telecom Zone 1.

This rough classification method with different standards in different places led to a huge gap between the upper and lower limits of first-rate experts.

Like Mei Qinghe, in Li Miao's eyes, she is "barely first-rate". And Liu Baiyun, according to Li Miao's observation, should be at the top level of first-rate.

After all, age is there. The change of moves is generally formed at the age of thirty-something, and it is difficult to make a breakthrough. And the experience of responding to the enemy, the level of internal cultivation, and the vigor of internal Qi can be polished up with time.

Like Liu Baiyun, she is the most standard template for a top expert in the Jianghu—bone structure and aptitude are not bad, but not top-notch, and she cannot reach the level of a supreme expert even if she exhausts her potential. But with years of hard practice and fighting against enemies, internal Qi, strength, and moves are all pure and flawless.

Young people like Mei Qinghe and Wang Hai who reached the first-rate expert level early by aptitude, fighting against Liu Baiyun, are nine deaths and one life.

Li Miao looked at Liu Baiyun up and down, and Liu Baiyun was also secretly looking at the three of Li Miao.

She first recognized Gao Ling, a veteran of the Mount Taishan Sect, whom she had seen at the Five Mountains Alliance meeting in previous years, and was familiar with. At this time, she followed Li Miao with her head down, not saying a word, completely losing her past style.

And then look at Mei Qinghe. She had accepted Mei Qinghe as a disciple since she was a child, like a teacher and a mother, and naturally knew Mei Qinghe quite well, and she also guessed that she would meet Mei Qinghe near Taian.

It's just that at this time, the trust, admiration, and dependence in Mei Qinghe's eyes toward her were gone, replaced by a trace of disappointment and grievance that was hard to express.

Liu Baiyun's heart trembled.

At this time, there were many people, and she couldn't speak, so she had to put this matter aside first and find time to confess to Mei Qinghe later.

Finally, she looked at Li Miao.

Gao Ling and Mei Qinghe are both first-rate experts, but followed this person, obviously headed by Li Miao. Mei Qinghe didn't realize that she had a rift with Liu Baiyun, and at this time didn't want to face her, and also subconsciously hid behind Li Miao. These were all seen by Liu Baiyun.

The first look is naturally to look at Li Miao's Wu Gong.

Zuo Lishan couldn't see the end of Li Miao, and Liu Baiyun naturally couldn't see it either, just secretly strange in her heart.

The second look is to look at Li Miao's details.

This is not to say looking at the traces like calluses on hands and feet, but looking at what kind of "Qi" is on a person.

A person stays in a position for a long time, and there will be a kind of "Qi" on him. Of course, this thing is not feudal superstition, but an impression left in the subconscious when looking at it at a glance, gathered together by many details such as eyes, clothing, and posture.

Liu Baiyun sensed a trace of high-ranking "official Qi" from Li Miao, and another trace of incompatible temperament.

She didn't know that this trace of incompatible temperament was called "class flavor" on Li Miao's side.

Liu Baiyun said: "Senior, please. I am Liu Baiyun of the Huashan Sect, are you a friend of my disciple Mei Qinghe?"

"Consider it so, I am Embroidered Uniform Guard Battalion Commander, Li Miao."

Li Miao made a big scene in Taian City, and his identity couldn't be hidden, but Liu Baiyun had just arrived here and hadn't heard the news. At this time, she simply said it directly.

This sentence shocked the Huashan Sect disciples, who stood up one after another, nervously gripping their sword hilts.

The battalion commander leaves the capital, and it is to take lives.

The young man who spoke just now couldn't help but say: "Senior Sister... how can you be with—"

Before he finished speaking, he was glared at by Liu Baiyun, and swallowed the sentence "mixed with the imperial court's eagles and dogs" behind.

"Lord Li, did my disciple do something out of the ordinary, offended the law, and you want to take her back to the capital for trial?" Liu Baiyun said.

Her first reaction was naturally that Mei Qinghe was caught by the Embroidered Uniform Guard for revenge. At this time, she spoke, wanting to explain the reason and exonerate Mei Qinghe.

Even if she didn't talk about feelings, Mei Qinghe reached the first-rate level in her early twenties, and had a chance to become a supreme expert, which is the root of the Huashan Sect's heritage.

Liu Baiyun secretly adjusted her posture, already prepared to take action to restrain Li Miao.

The Huashan Sect naturally couldn't afford to offend the Embroidered Uniform Guard, but at this time, she had to protect Mei Qinghe first. As long as Li Miao wasn't hurt, it shouldn't bring a disaster of sect destruction.

At worst, she would use her own life to exchange Mei Qinghe out.

Liu Baiyun couldn't see Li Miao's Wu Gong, but she had some confidence in her own Wu Gong.

Li Miao sensed Liu Baiyun's intention, smiled, reached out and pressed down: "Sit, sit."

After speaking, he sat down at the table on his own.

"Your disciple is now working for me."

"I didn't treat her badly, and even eliminated the hidden dangers in her cultivation method for her. Sect Leader Liu, you should be clear about this."

Liu Baiyun changed her expression when she heard this, and remained silent.

The young disciple next to her couldn't help but say: "What is the Lord saying? My Senior Sister is a direct disciple, practicing the Huashan orthodox method, what hidden dangers are there that need you to solve?"

"Are you threatening my Senior Sister with your identity—"

Whoosh—

A trace of subtle wind passed, and the young disciple stiffened, unable to move, only a pair of eyeballs turning in horror, obviously pressed by acupoints.

A peanut fell from his collar and fell to the ground.

Li Miao took his hand back and said: "Children don't interrupt when adults are talking."

"Sect Leader Liu, let's continue."

"Since we met, the time is just right, I won't go around in circles, save some effort."

"The Five Mountains Sword Sects are going to die, Zuo Lishan is going to die."

"Do you want to join the imperial court's dog family, and everyone will happily dig the ancestral grave of the Mount Taishan Sect together?"
