Chapter 1149 How Powerful Is the Queen

A tall woman and an equally tall, harmless old man, together entered the Chixia Army garrison from the Xuanwu Gate, and then entered the martial arts field outside the imperial palace.

This martial arts arena has been through so much that it has its own legendary stories circulating around the world. In just one year, it has been repaired more times than in all the previous years combined.

The old man had already sensed something before he even got close, and he said softly, "On the way here, I heard some rumors that the Queen and you had a battle with that little bastard Yu Taohua here, but stories are just stories after all, and everyone has their own opinions about who won and who lost."

Yan Yunxiao looked back: "The queen at that time was no match for me and Yu Taohua."

The old man looked at Yan Yunxiao: "Now?"

Yan Yunxiao said: "Didn't you read the Shuyalou journal?"

Old man: “I saw it.”

Yan Yunxiao: “Can’t read?”

The old man smiled and said, "You were in this temper when you came to Jianshan. Why are you still like this now? I haven't seen anything, but the few words from Shuyalou, how can I believe them?"

Yan Yunxiao said: "My Wan'er went to your Jianshan. If it weren't for Yu Taohua, you would have tried to keep her there. I haven't settled the score with you yet."

The old man asked with a smile: "If Su Wan'er is practicing swordsmanship, are you strong enough to accept her as a disciple?"

Yan Yunxiao raised his lips and said, "You mean, if I want to force you to stay here and teach the swordsmen of the Chixia Army, Fengluan Guard, and Huanglong Guard how to practice swordsmanship, is that okay?"

The old man laughed awkwardly: "You have kept so many people, and you still want to keep me. You are so greedy. Besides, my injury is almost healed. I am not sure you can keep me."

Yan Yunxiao did not speak again.

The old man who had walked all the way from Jianshan to the capital did not speak again, but looked into the distance.

The last time I came to the imperial palace in Beijing was when I followed my master to escort Emperor Xuanzong back to the palace, although I was only in my teens at the time.

This swordsman, who was known for his invincibility since he left the mountain gate and never showing mercy when he could, looked at Yan Yunxiao after feeling a little sentimental.

He was about to reach the third level but stopped there. After all, he was no longer the same Yan Yunxiao as before.

Even the sword energy began to converge.

But if a fight really breaks out, even though his injuries have mostly healed, he may not necessarily win.

The two walked one in front and one behind. There was no one on the road, but there was still some distance to the martial arts arena. The old swordsman narrowed his eyes and asked, "She, is she really not going to come out?"

Yan Yunxiao said: "I have confessed. If you can defeat the queen, I will see you."

The old swordsman smiled and said, "I see, Dan Xian, the old guys in the fifth pair are all here. Are they all following the same process?"

Yan Yunxiao did not hide it and said directly: "The old Taoist priest was hung on the tree for three days."

The old swordsman slapped his thigh and said, "My legs are too slow. I didn't catch up with the scenery."

Yan Yunxiao glanced at the rooftop in the distance.

Perhaps it was because of Yan Yunxiao's glance that the little girl on the roof immediately turned around and ran away.

The old swordsman laughed and said, "If her master knew that she had risen to the position of deputy commander beside the Empress, he would probably give her a good beating and then hold her in his arms to drink wine all night. The old man doesn't like the court, but he wants his apprentice to live a good life with good food and drink every day."

As he said this, the old swordsman said, "The last time I saw this kid was the last time. He was crazy and wanted to melt the Zhenyue on the wall to forge a sword."

The old swordsman's eyes softened and he chuckled, "Now that I think about it, this child is much better than her master. But now that she's the deputy commander, her temperament has changed a lot."

But that's when the old swordsman said this.

In the martial arts arena not far away, Ku Yue's loud voice came over: "Open!"

"Old man Ximen is here! Bet that old man Ximen will be knocked down by the queen with a few swords! Hurry up and place your bets. I, Shentu Kuyue, will be the banker. I don't have any motors, but it's beautiful. You can make money!"

Yan Yunxiao heard this, sneered, and looked at the old swordsman.

The old swordsman moved his lips and smiled helplessly, "It is the most difficult to maintain a pure heart."

Yan Yunxiao asked: "You, the gambling god, are you not going to place a bet?"

The old swordsman touched the dice pendant on the hilt of his long sword and shook his head: "There is no reason to bet on yourself."

But after saying that, he looked in the direction of Ku Yue's voice: "There are many acquaintances, but Yun Xiao, I heard that His Majesty cherishes the Queen very much. I want to see Li Yunxian, can you be cautious?"

Yan Yunxiao looked at the old swordsman: "You can't hurt the queen."

At this time, Lian Wei and Yu Kuangxian, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and said, "Grand Commander, Senior Ximen."

The old swordsman had noticed Lian Wei and Yu Kuangjuan just now, and was now looking at them carefully with a smile.

Lian Wei said: "Madam, because... um."

At this point, Lian Wei paused and said, "The queen has to go back to change clothes because of farming. She will be here soon. The queen asked me to tell the seniors, please forgive me."

The old swordsman looked at Lian Wei and asked, "Farming?"

Lian Wei nodded.

The old swordsman smiled, but didn't say much. Instead, he looked at Lian Wei and said, "Your swordsmanship is very creative. You have taken a different path from your grandfather and father. But this path is not easy to take. And you should change your sword."

Lian Wei clasped his fists.

The old swordsman looked at Yu Kuangjue again: "When Huang Chao met me, he said he had met someone he liked and wanted to take him as his disciple. I was surprised, but I was a self-enclosed person. I wanted to meet you, but I never had the chance. When I came here, I heard about your story in the martial arts world. What a pity, but I admire you. Seeing you today, it's no wonder that Huang Chao took a fancy to you. You have found a way to climb up again."

As he spoke, the old swordsman clasped his fists towards Yu Kuangxun.

Yu Kuangxian clasped his fists and said, "If it weren't for Senior Luo and the Queen, I would have died by now."

The old swordsman laughed and said, "Luo Changfeng has made too many mistakes in his life. Now that he is old, he has done a few right things."

Yan Yunxiao did not stop to talk, but left directly.

The old swordsman squinted at Yan Yunxiao as he left, then looked inside the martial arts arena, and then lowered his voice and asked Lian Wei and Yu Kuangxian, "Have you placed your bets?"

Lian Wei shook his head: "Senior, we dare not participate in your playfulness."

The old swordsman continued to ask: "How do you bet?"

Yu Kuangxian said: "I can handle a few moves."

The old swordsman understood, and two silver ingots appeared in his palm. "Here are twenty taels. Help me bet on twenty moves."

Yu Kuangxian glanced at this person but didn't say anything.

Lian Wei looked at the old swordsman, and in his heart he actually had some admiration for him. Even though Tianzhi Pavilion and Jianshan had always been competing for the title of the number one sword sect in Jianghu, Lian Wei admired this man especially, so he said, "Senior, the queen is very powerful now."

The old swordsman smiled and said, "Isn't that pretty impressive of me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the Grand Masters of the End or other warriors who had rushed to the training ground after hearing about this, all looked in the direction of the old swordsman.

The invisible sword intent broke through the clouds and seemed to turn into a sword pool, causing everyone's heart to tremble suddenly. They felt as if there was a thunder pool in their heart, but the rolling clouds in the pool were all sword energy.

The sword pierces the heart.

"You have offended that old scoundrel, why are you hiding here from me?" The old Taoist priest looked at Ku Yue who ran to his side and grabbed his Taoist robe to touch himself.

Ku Yue wrapped herself in a Taoist robe and looked at the old Taoist priest: "What the hell, doesn't he know this is the imperial palace? He is so brave!"

The sword intent becomes stronger.

Ku Yue also hid deeper towards the old Taoist priest's robe.

The old Taoist priest laughed a few times but did not drive away the Crying Moon.

The fifth pair squatted on a stool and said, "Look, the wound caused by Li Yunxian's sword has healed a lot?"

The old Taoist priest smiled and said, "Instead of guessing this, why don't you go find him with the betting plate? Have you forgotten that the old rogue always bets on him or that he is a big fat sheep?"
