Qi Huang seized the opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
"I have another elixir that can enhance your potential in a very short time, allowing you to unleash three times the martial power and sweep away your opponents. Even if you are ultimately defeated by Zhongyuan Chou and fail to take the lead, it will still be enough for you to become famous throughout the martial world."
The man's eyes also lit up with excitement.
A martial arts contest was held to choose a husband, but only one person could ultimately win.
He knew he was no match for them.
The purpose of my visit is to find an opportunity to become famous.
Now that the opportunity is right in front of him, how could he not be tempted?
But he didn't lose his mind.
"We've never met before, why are you helping me? What is your purpose?"
Qi Huang said,
"I don't know martial arts and can't get into the inner area. I'd like you to take me in to watch the match."
The man laughed loudly.
"I thought it was something serious, no problem. But let me make this clear beforehand: if you're going to cause trouble inside, I advise you not to go and throw your life away. The Free and Unfettered Sword Sect is not like other gangs. If you offend them, they can kill you anywhere in the world."
"That's natural."
Qi Huang agreed, arranged a time to meet him the next day, and then turned and left.
The man watched her leave.
Still unable to hide his excitement,
He slammed his palm against the wall in front of him.
Under the pressure of the surging internal force, a very deep fist mark was left on the stone wall.
"Hahaha, the power of the Mind-Calming Pill is indeed extraordinary."
His laughter suddenly stopped.
Be careful when turning around.
Mo Yunhan was standing a few steps away at some point.
He stood holding his sword.
The black mask on his face was as cold and menacing as a demon.
He thought it was one of those underhanded tricks again.
He was instantly furious.
"Fine, you were able to succeed because you ambushed me last time. Today, I'll make sure you have nowhere to run."
He then drew his sword and attacked.
The Mind-Calming Pill enhanced the power of his attacks, making them even stronger than before.
But after the first move, he didn't even see his opponent make a move.
He felt an excessively domineering force rushing towards his dantian.
It seemed to be tearing his meridians apart.
"You...you..."
He retreated in fear.
Mo Yunhan did not kill him.
His eyes were icy cold.
"Get out of here. Don't let me see you in Cloudsea City, or you'll be dead next time."
The man stomped his foot angrily, but dared not stay any longer, and quickly ran away, clutching his chest.
Mo Yunhan strolled leisurely out of the alley.
A hint of a smile flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, Ye Qi rushed over.
It landed silently behind him.
"Master, things are not going well. The number one swordsman in the world, Zhongyuan Chou, has arrived in Yunhai City and has been taken to the Xiaoyao Sword Sect's manor to rest. The manor is full of experts, so we have no chance to launch a sneak attack."
"On the way from Zhongyuan to Yunhai City, Ye Shiwu and his two companions tried to ambush him, but they were defeated in less than twenty moves. Even if I were to go, I'm afraid I wouldn't last more than fifty moves. If he participates in the martial arts competition, then only you can fight."
"Master, if all else fails, you can wear the mask, win the fight, and then escape with the Seven-Colored Phoenix Grass!"
Mo Yunhan paused for a moment and then asked,
Has the Seven-Colored Phoenix Grass entered the manor?
Ye Qi shook his head.
"No, they said it would arrive tomorrow, but we can't find the delivery route."
Mo Yunhan pondered,
"Everyone keep a close watch on the manor from the outside. There's no need to look for opportunities to besiege Zhongyuan Chou. Report back immediately if you find any clues about the Phoenix Grass."
Ye Qi agreed and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
Mo Yunhan's heart was filled with complex emotions.
Wandering aimlessly in the night,
The hustle and bustle seemed to be shut out.
If we truly clash with the Central Plains powers, we must respond with all our might.
Martial arts skills might expose their identities; it's not as simple as Ye Qi claiming—just getting the Phoenix Grass and escaping.
Once the imperial court and the Free and Unfettered Sword Sect go to war...
The surrounding cities will likely suffer as a result.
To save one person, ten thousand people are displaced.
This is not what he wanted to see.
"That fortune teller is amazing! He's right every time he predicts something. He even said that I'll definitely meet my Mr. Right tonight. Quick, let's go to the bridge the fortune teller mentioned."
A pretty young woman, arm in arm with her best friend, walked by with a radiant smile.
He held a talisman folded into a triangle shape in his hand.
Mo Yunhan snapped out of his reverie and saw a stall set up not far away, surrounded by layers of people.
From a distance, all you can see is a large "卦" (gua) character hanging high above.
People would come over from time to time with talismans, and everyone was full of praise.
As if possessed, Mo Yunhan also walked over.
Then a familiar voice came from the crowd.
Its sound is clear yet slightly hoarse.
"You are destined to have no children, and taking medicine will be useless; it will only harm your body. However, your good fortune will extend to the rest of your life. Three days later, when you leave your home and head east, you will find the person who will bring you good fortune after you reach the first great river. Take good care of them."
At the fortune-telling stall, Qi Huang sat cross-legged.
In front of me was a low wooden table with simple writing implements.
A dozen or so folded talismans were casually placed aside.
After she finished speaking, she took a talisman, handed it over, and accepted the divination fee.
The woman, who had been pale because she had no children, left after thanking him profusely.
As soon as she left, another woman sat down.
"Fairy, I would like to have my daughter's marriage fortune told. Here is her birth date and time."
The woman wrote a few words on a piece of paper and respectfully handed it over.
Qi Huang raised his hand to calculate.
He frowned after a moment.
"Your daughter's marriage is not a good one."
The woman exclaimed in surprise,
