"Since it's a forbidden technique, why does Consort Ning dare to use it so openly?"
I didn't quite understand before.
"Because the current laws only stipulate when forbidden techniques can no longer be used, but do not say when forbidden items created before cannot be used."
Qu Bai's explanation was a bit convoluted: "Unless someone refines it right in front of you, it's impossible to determine what era those two Yama's Guides in her hands are from."
He nodded knowingly.
Indeed, although the law prohibits it, as long as she takes out a finished product, Ning Zhaoyi insists that it is an old item from the past, and no one can do anything about it.
After Luo Shenbo appeared, everyone fell silent.
Only Ning Zhaoyi stared angrily at Luo Shenbo, showing no sign of giving up.
"I will not repeat myself."
Luo Shenbo's gaze grew even sharper.
At this moment, Shen Qian really hoped that Consort Ning would be a little more stubborn and defy a prince in public. Even if Consort Ning was the daughter of Duke Tianning, Duke Tianning would definitely not be in the right.
Even if Lord Luoshen really killed Consort Ning in a fit of rage, no one could blame Lord Luoshen.
Unfortunately, although Consort Ning was crazy, she still had some rationality. Seeing that the atmosphere between heaven and earth was becoming more and more oppressive, and even the clouds were darkening, she reluctantly put away the Yama's Guide.
"leave."
Luo Shenbo withdrew his imposing aura and said calmly.
Now that things have come to this, no matter what stance one takes, Lord Luoshen would certainly not allow Consort Ning to stay any longer.
"Before you sink, I, Consort Ning, will remember you!"
Ning Zhaoyi gave Shen Qian a deep look, making no attempt to hide the resentment in her eyes, and then strode away from the manor.
He remained silent for a moment before sinking.
Come to think of it, he hadn't encountered such blatant hatred in a long time.
The last time... it seems to have been Zhao Xin from Jingcheng?
Shen Qian felt wronged. It was the senior brother who tore down the signboard of the Martial Arts Department, and it was Qu Bai who made the move today. What does it have to do with me, Shen Qian?
"Guests are welcome, please make yourselves at home... Let's begin."
After Consort Ning left, Luo Shenbo, who was in mid-air, smiled and said something before his figure disappeared.
A live, heavenly performance began instantly, and waiters, who were already prepared, started serving the dishes.
The banquet was buffet style, and everyone seemed to quickly forget the little incident from earlier, and resumed their lively conversation and laughter.
"Ah, my aunt called me. I'll go over there first and come find you later... Please don't be shy, make yourselves at home!"
Qu Xiangyun smiled sheepishly at Chen Qian, then quickly left.
Feng Manlin soon disappeared, leaving only Shen Qian and Qu Bai to wander freely within the manor.
"Want to go up and take a look?"
Qu Bai suddenly glanced upwards.
Shen Qian knew where he was referring to.
When Consort Ning clashed with the two men, Shen Qian keenly sensed that there were many sharp gazes on the high platform. The fluctuating aura was as conspicuous as the sun in the night throughout the entire manor.
What's more, before sinking, he saw a figure he remembered vividly among them.
Clearly, that high platform represents a specific circle, and only a small group of people can ascend it.
"Go." Shen Qian said without hesitation. "Know yourself and know your enemy, you said it!"
The two exchanged a smile and walked into the main hall, ascending the stairs.
As soon as they reached the entrance to the high platform, dozens of eyes drifted over, lingering on the two of them, but most of them stayed on Shen Qian.
At a glance, there were about thirty or forty people on the platform.
Shen Qian's internal energy and blood were slightly surging.
It was entirely spontaneous, as if guided by some unseen force or a subtle connection.
It's been a long, long time since I felt this kind of nerve tension.
In that single second, Shen Qian was certain that none of these people were weak, and there were several subtle energies emanating from them that made Shen Qian wary.
But their faces were all unusually young. Perhaps they couldn't compare to those before the sinking, but in the context of the entire Chinese nation, they were undoubtedly the younger generation.
What most caught Shen Qian's eye was a young man standing alone at the edge of the high platform.
His facial features were soft and not particularly striking; by martial arts standards, he was quite ordinary-looking.
But the longer you look at it, the more you seem to gradually perceive the danger within.
He carried a sword on his back, but he himself was a sword.
"Lin Sanmo".
Shen Qian recalled the information he had read before and easily matched the young man's name with the information he had also focused on.
Shen Qian paid so much attention to Lin Sanmo not only because the other party was a legendary figure who had suppressed Beiwu and even other universities in the country for many years, but also because Shen Qian had heard Lao Liu mention his brother.
That was a truly remarkable figure, someone who would shine for a century, and someone Old Liu admired most besides his senior brother Jiang Huan.
Coincidentally, a long time ago, Shen Qian had also heard the Minister of Education, Ma Gongzuo, mention it once.
"He may become the youngest King Wu in history."
At the time, I did not understand the meaning of this sentence.
Only now have I come to realize the immense weight of the expectations and praise contained within!
After the first nine kings, no one else could claim the title of King Wu.
Even just having a chance to reach it is a remarkable achievement.
I wonder how much of the other person's charm this Lin Sanmo, who is rumored to be obsessed with swords, possesses?
"Qu Bai, it's been a long time. I didn't expect you to actually go to the Jiangzhong Military Command..."
Many people on the platform greeted Qu Bai, clearly indicating that they had interacted before. A young martial artist in military uniform even came up to him with surprise.
