This is totally a melodramatic soap opera plot! I listened to the whole gossip and silently complained in my mind.
After listening to the Bagua Arena, I realized that the outcome of the battle was about to be decided. I turned to look at the arena and saw Man Jiu kneeling on one knee, supporting his body with one hand on his spiked club. He was hanging his head and hadn't caught his breath when Yue Jiao attacked Man Jiu's chest with a sword of energy.
With a "thud," blood seemed to bloom on Man Jiu's chest as he collapsed to the ground.
Below the arena, there was complete silence.
"You...you actually killed Man Jiu!" The old man who had announced the rules earlier stood up excitedly in the referee's seat, his finger trembling as he pointed at Yue Jiao, his face flushed with anger.
"Then why?" Yue Jiao lowered her eyes and a sarcastic smile appeared on her lips. She smoothed her hair, which was a little messy from the fight, with her hand. "What about Man Jiao'er? According to the rules, I can marry her."
"Don't even think about it! Cough cough cough!" The old man coughed violently in his excitement. "Even if I die today, I will never let you marry Jiao'er!"
"Do you think you can stop me?" Yue Jiao slowly flicked his clothes and walked to the old man's side. "If it weren't for Lord Riyue stopping me that day, do you think your Lingcheng barbarian clan would still be alive?"
"You! You've gone too far! How dare a despicable person like you marry my beloved daughter! Even if we, the Man clan, perish together with you today, we will not let you succeed!"
What kind of deep-seated grudge could there be? I was completely baffled watching from the audience. This Yue Jiao seems to be the person I've been looking for!
You's map clearly states that the lord of Qingcheng City is Yue Jiao, and that the Yue clan of Qingcheng are all three-tailed foxes. As for Yue Jiao's personality weaknesses, You did not write them down.
However, I remember there was a town called Qingcheng when I first entered the Abyss.
"Jinyu, was Qingcheng the town we went to when we first met you?"
"yes!"
"Then why is the location of Qingcheng different from the one on my map? Qingcheng is in the southeast on the map, but the one we're going to is in the southwest!" I took out the map and pointed it out to Jinyu.
“There are many in Qingcheng!” Jin Yu replied after glancing at them.
"What?"
"The Qingcheng Yuezhi were originally a powerful force with two or three towns in the Abyss, all called Qingcheng. After Yue Jiao ascended to the throne, he expanded his territory even more with swift and decisive measures, and he is also a favorite of the Sun and Moon Lord!"
"Lord Sun and Moon?" I was a little confused by the title "Lord Sun and Moon," but I figured that only the boss of the Abyss could be called that.
“Yes, he is our Abyss Supreme Monarch. The Sun and Moon City I mentioned to you before is where the Sun and Moon Monarch resides, and it is also the center of power in the Abyss! All orders come from there.”
It seems I should just focus on completing my trial and try to avoid trouble. If I'm recognized as Nv Xin, I'm doomed.
Just as we were talking, the arena was completely surrounded. The people of the Lingcheng Barbarian Clan surrounded Yue Jiao, looking as if they wanted to devour him alive.
"Insects." Yue Jiao sneered, her smile widening. "Looks like my darling is in for a good meal today."
Everyone's expression changed upon hearing this.
"Yue Jiao! Will you let our Lingcheng go if I marry you?" A hoarse and weak voice came from behind.
"Jiao'er! What brings you here? Didn't I tell you to stay home?" The old man looked up sharply and searched around for her.
"Father, I'm here!"
I looked up at the sound and saw a woman standing gracefully in the distance below the stage. She had a slender and graceful figure, her skin was as white as snow, and her red lips were like a touch of red plum blossoms in the snow, so proud and aloof. She was simply a fairy who had stepped out of a painting.
