Chapter 224 A Woman in Love

The top of Mount Shu.

A figure flew quickly on a sword, and a rolling passage appeared between the sea of ​​clouds, which was soon filled with clouds and mist.

Two days later.

Chang'an, Ministry of Rites.

Li Nuo opened the reply letter from Shushan. All five masters of Shushan, including the head of Shushan, would participate in this martial arts conference.

At this point, all the first-rate sects in the Great Xia martial arts world, as well as the only super first-rate sect, are confirmed to be present.

The next thing is very simple.

He first arranged for this Shushan disciple to stay in Chang'an. The Ministry of Rites would prepare crowns and tokens for several Shushan masters as soon as possible, and let him take them back when the time comes.

Li Nuo spent the entire day in the Ministry of Rites, personally writing invitation letters for those second-rate sects.

Although they are only a second-rate sect, to be called second-rate, there must be at least one grandmaster within the sect.

That night, twenty-one invitation letters were sent out through the imperial post station.

…

Jingzhou, Kuangdaomen.

Although it is only a second-rate sect, the Mad Blade Sect's influence in Ningzhou is greater than that of the first-rate sects in the martial arts world.

The Kuang Dao Sect is not only a martial arts sect, but also a martial arts gym and an escort agency.

If the people of Jingzhou need to learn martial arts, escort, or have protection, they will usually go to the Kuangdao Sect.

In Jingzhou, even the business of Zhaixing Tower is not as good as that of Kuangdao Sect.

If Zhaixing Tower is a powerful dragon, then Kuangdao Sect is undoubtedly a local snake.

A hundred years ago, a sword master settled in Jingzhou, founded the Kuang Dao Sect, and began to recruit disciples.

That grandmaster has passed away, and to this day, the Mad Blade Sect still has one grandmaster, seven martial artists at the level of controlling objects, and countless disciples below the fourth level.

As a local gang, although the Kuang Dao Sect belongs to the martial arts world, it also has close ties with the local government.

At this time, inside the Kuang Dao Sect, a burly, muscular, red-faced old man welcomed a middle-aged official in official uniform into the hall and said with a smile, "I was wondering why there was a magpie calling outside today. It turns out that they knew that Lord Wei was coming to visit..."

Although his face was full of smiles, he was muttering to himself.

This Wei Baopi came here today. Could it be that he wants money again?

Damn it, this has happened so many times, he really wants to chop this greedy official to death with a knife.

But if that happens, the Kuang Dao Sect, which was founded by our ancestor, will not be able to escape the fate of destruction.

It would be no more difficult for the imperial court to crush them than for him to crush an ant.

The middle-aged official also had a big smile on his face. After he sat down, he took out a stack of banknotes from his sleeve, put them on the table, and said, "Please accept these silver coins, Master Liu. I have been ignorant in the past few years. If I have done anything to make Master Liu unhappy, please forgive me. The extra money is your compensation to Master Liu..."

The red-faced old man was slightly stunned.

These banknotes are more than what the Kuang Dao Sect has given to this corrupt official over the years.

This guy, did he take the wrong medicine today, or did he suddenly change his personality?

I'm afraid there's something fishy going on here!

The corner of his eye twitched, and he smiled: "What are you doing, Lord Wei? I can't accept this money!"

"No, no, no, Sect Master Liu must accept it!"

"No, no!"

The red-faced old man wanted to continue to refuse, but the middle-aged official knelt on the ground with a plop, hugged his legs, and cried bitterly, "Master Liu, I studied hard for twenty years and finally passed the imperial examination. I was tempted by the devil and took some money. You are a master of your generation, please be magnanimous, please let me go..."

The red-faced old man looked at him blankly, not knowing how to respond for a moment, and not knowing what was going on.

At this time, a man walked in from outside, glanced at the middle-aged official kneeling on the ground, and without saying anything, handed an invitation in his hand to the red-faced old man and said, "Dad, this is an invitation from the court, please take a look..."

"An invitation from the imperial court?"

The red-faced old man looked even more suspicious. What did the court ask him to do?

He frowned and looked over suspiciously, but soon his frown relaxed.

I see.

How could the Kuang Dao Sect dare to refuse a conference that so many first-rate sects were going to attend? Moreover, there were many unexpected benefits to participating in this conference.

Being able to directly impeach local officials, it is no wonder that this corrupt official’s attitude suddenly changed today. He must have received the news in advance.

He put away the banknotes with confidence and said with a smile: "Okay, okay, Sir Wei, please get up first..."

Yanzhou.

Youlong Villa.

Youlong Villa is not a martial arts sect, but a martial arts family with a long history.

With his dragon-like body movements and his ability to use defense as offense, he found a new way of doing things and became quite famous in the martial arts world.

They never recruit disciples from outside, and the skills are only passed on to family members. This is because the owner of the villa is a master-level warrior, which makes the villa highly respected by local martial artists.

At this moment, in Youlong Villa, a handsome middle-aged man was looking at the invitation in his hand with surprise.

This was the first time that the imperial court held a martial arts conference.

He didn't want to get involved in these things, and he didn't have much interest in the privileges of the grandmaster.

But some of the words on the invitation were too scary.

The Sanqing Sect, the Five Mountains Sword Sect, Shushan... all the famous sects in the martial arts world are above it.

There was no way he could refuse, nor did he dare to refuse.

The Sanqing Sect and Shushan both took the invitation from the court so seriously. Who the hell was Youlong Villa? How could they refuse?

Yuezhou, Silver Spear Gate.

Wuzhou, Tianying Sect.

Lizhou, the God's Palm Sect.

…

Within a few days, many sects in Daxia received invitations from the imperial court.

Three months later, the Great Xia court will hold a grand martial arts conference in Chang'an and invite many sects to participate.

Although the invitation stated that whether or not to participate in this martial arts conference was entirely voluntary.

But who dares to really volunteer?

The Five Mountains Sword Sect, Mount Shu, and even the Three Pure Ones have to give face to the imperial court. Who do they think they are?

Not going this time.

Maybe someone will come to your door next time.

Not to mention, the vast majority of sects are looking forward to this trip.

This is a rare opportunity to exchange ideas and communicate with martial arts masters. If they were the only ones there, they might worry about being scolded as the court's running dogs, but with so many major sects going, they naturally have no concerns.

Other sects want to go, but they are not qualified yet.

After making inquiries from many sources, people in the martial arts world discovered that only second-rate and above sects would be invited by the imperial court.

There is not even a grandmaster in the sect, so there is no chance of receiving an invitation.

This is obviously a high-level conference. The sects that are invited are recognized by the court. The masters who participate in this conference can also obtain certain privileges.

All the sects that received the invitation actively responded to the call and responded immediately.

The small sects that did not receive the invitation were feeling resentful, but were also secretly competing with each other. If one of their sects could produce a master, they would be eligible to be invited to the next martial arts conference.

At the same time, they are also extremely envious of the privileges enjoyed by the Grandmasters.

Ministry of Rites.

Li Nuo was sitting in the yamen. In the past few days, almost every day, the Ministry of Rites would receive responses from some martial arts sects.

The Five Mountains Sword Sect and Shushan both focus on swordsmanship.

The masters of these sects have all kinds of skills. Some are proficient in boxing, palm techniques, finger techniques, and some even become masters simply through body techniques. As for weapons, there are also sword techniques, spear techniques, whip techniques, stick techniques, etc.

So far, his plan has successfully taken the first step.

As long as they arrive in Chang'an, Li Nuo will have the final say.

Other arrangements regarding the martial arts conference were also proceeding steadily and orderly. At this point, he finally had a chance to relax for a while.

After taking a long breath, Li Nuo left the Ministry of Rites.

When I got home, I saw Fenghuang was there too.

She was waiting for her wife to finish practicing martial arts, and the two of them made an appointment to go out for an outing and sketching.

When she saw Li Nuo, she blinked at him gently.

Fenghuang's sudden wink made Li Nuo stunned for a moment, and then he understood something.

He turned around and walked out again, and soon arrived at Yuyin Pavilion.

He entered through the back door with ease, climbed up the ladder that had been prepared long ago, and climbed into Fenghuang's boudoir through the window. As soon as he landed, a fragrant breeze blew over.

Li Nuo carried An Ning around for a while. It had been a few days since they last saw each other, so naturally they had an in-depth conversation while holding their breath.

"Have you missed me these days?"

"think."

"How much do you want it?"

"I really want to."

"How much do you miss it?"

…

Once a woman falls in love, she becomes a different person.

When he first met An Ning, she was so cold and cool. At that time, Li Nuo could never have imagined that one day she would sit on his lap, lean in his arms, and say such cheesy love words.

"Speak..."

She twisted her body coquettishly, but this twist made Li Nuo suffer.

Although she doesn't look as charming as Phoenix, her figure is just as good as Phoenix's. She just straddles his legs and twists and turns. Who can stand this?

To show respect, Li Nuo responded immediately.

Li Anning suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

These days, she has been learning the etiquette of the boudoir with the female officials in the palace, so she naturally knows what this represents.

Her face turned red and she dared not move anymore.

But seeing Li Nuo's expression, which looked a little uncomfortable, she hesitated for a long time, lowered her head shyly, and asked: "Do you want me to help you?"

Li Nuo was feeling uncomfortable and didn't understand what she meant, so he asked, "What can I help you with?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly stiffened and he took a breath: "Hiss..."
