"What are you competing in?" Gu Qingxi asked.
"Of course it's sword techniques or magic spells." Chi Wanqiu looked at Gu Qingxi strangely.
Gu Qingxi then realized that he had asked a nonsense question. Gongye Ruoyun had said before that Meng Yuzhou had never learned the art of refining weapons, so of course he couldn't compete with him in this.
But if it was a competition of sword techniques or magic spells, how could a Yuanying Great Perfection compare with a mid-stage Huashen? No wonder Chi Wanqiu's face was so dark.
"Can't you refuse?" Gu Qingxi asked.
Although Meng Yuzhou didn't have much practical experience, Gongye Ruoyun had even less practical experience. If he competed in sword techniques or magic spells, he would definitely be beaten to a pulp by others, and it would be a question whether he could leave the competition stage alive.
"No! This is related to the prestige of the Gongye clan, and we must not give in.
Moreover, there are two tokens to open the Sword Spirit Palace, one in my hand and one in Meng Chaohai's hand, and neither is indispensable.
If it were any other day, he would not refuse if I asked him to borrow the token, but now the Meng family has made it clear that they have torn their faces with the Gongye clan. Unless Ruoyun can defeat Meng Yuzhou on the Jiuli battlefield, he will never hand over the token." Chi Wanqiu shook his head and said.
His expression was gloomy, and he obviously had no hope for Gongye Ruoyun.
"But the Jiuli Mingxu Realm is now in danger, and only Senior Gu can repair the Jiuli Mingxu Sword. Otherwise, I will have a match with Meng Yuzhou after she repairs the Jiuli Mingxu Sword.
Their Meng family is also a member of Jiuli City. They can't just watch the Jiuli Mingxu Sword be destroyed, right?" Gongye Ruoyun said with a frown.
He also knew that he could never be Meng Yuzhou's opponent. The only thing they can do now is to find a way to convince Meng Chaohai and get the token. The ownership of Jiuli City can be discussed later.
"It's useless. This secret place was originally discovered by the Meng family. In order to avoid enemies, they cooperated with their ancestors and handed the secret place over to the Gongye clan.
After so many years, most of the enemies of the Meng family are no longer alive, and their descendants may not care about the grudges nearly ten thousand years ago. Even if the Meng family returns to the Tianyuan Continent, it may not be that dangerous.
So for the Meng family, it would be best if the Jiuli Mingxu Sword can be repaired, but it doesn't matter if it can't be repaired. What they care about most now is the ownership of Jiuli City." Chi Wanqiu said.
"In other words, the only way to get the token is to accept their challenge?" Gu Qingxi frowned.
"There is another way, which is to use the whole force of the Gongye clan to attack the Meng family and force Meng Chaohai to hand over the token.
But the Meng family is not weak to begin with, and they have been gathering strength for many years. If they really fight to the death, it will be difficult for the Gongye clan to gain
an advantage." Chi Wanqiu said worriedly. Gu Qingxi shook his head secretly. Let's not talk about whether the Gongye clan can gain an advantage. Even if they can gain a little advantage, if Meng Chaohai is desperate and destroys the token, the Jiuli Mingxu realm will be finished.
"Then accept their challenge, and in half a month, defeat Meng Yuzhou openly and get the token." Gu Qingxi said with great enthusiasm.
She was indeed heroic, but Gongye Ruoyun was so scared that her face turned pale, and even Chi Wanqiu's expression changed slightly.
"Senior Gu, I am the Great Perfection of the Nascent Soul, and Meng Yuzhou is in the late stage of the Spiritualization." Gongye Ruoyun reminded carefully.
"I know, but there is still half a month left, which is enough for you to be promoted to the God of Transformation. If you practice sword skills well, it is not impossible to defeat the middle stage of the God of Transformation." Gu Qingxi said confidently.
"What, half a month to be promoted to the God of Transformation?" Gongye Ruoyun looked at Gu Qingxi in surprise, almost wondering if there was something wrong with his ears and he heard something wrong.
"Qingxi, in order to help Ruoyun to be promoted to the God of Transformation, I don't know how many ways I have thought of and how many natural treasures I have spent, but I have never been able to do so. Are you sure he can be promoted successfully within half a month?" Chi Wanqiu also looked incredulous. "
Don't worry, sister Wanqiu, as long as you hand him over to me, I promise that within half a month, I will be able to promote him to the God of Transformation and learn the sword skills that are enough to defeat Meng Yuzhou." Gu Qingxi said, and her face once again showed unquestionable strong confidence.
Although I always felt that Gu Qingxi's words were too incredible, the strange thing was that looking at the confidence on her face, Chi Wanqiu no longer had any doubts in his heart.
"Okay, then I will hand him over to you." Chi Wanqiu pondered for a moment and said to Gu Qingxi.
Thinking about it carefully, even she herself felt strange. How could a powerful person in the middle stage of the fusion stage have such blind trust in a person at the peak of the transformation of the spirit? But now, except for trusting Gu Qingxi, she had no better choice.
You can't just do nothing and send Gongye Ruoyun to Meng Yuzhou to be abused? That is more than just seeking abuse, it is simply seeking death.
"Sister Wanqiu, since you handed him over to me, you must trust me. In the past half month, no matter what happens, you must not ask about it, let alone intervene. Can you do this?
If you can't, then speak up as soon as possible, so that I don't waste my efforts." Gu Qingxi reminded again.
For fear of scaring Chi Wanqiu, she showed a gentle and peaceful smile on her face when she spoke.
I don't know why, seeing her smile like this, Chi Wanqiu felt the hair on his back stand up, and an inexplicable throbbing and uneasiness in his heart.
But words are spoken and water is spilled. How can the lord of a city and the lord of a clan eat his words?
Besides, the battle in half a month is related to the life and death of her precious son, so she can't afford to retreat.
"Of course, if I don't trust you, how can I hand Ruoyun to you. Qingxi, don't worry, no matter what happens, I will never ask or interfere." Chi Wanqiu promised.
In her heart, she kept comforting herself: Ruoyun would suffer a little at most if she fell into Gu Qingxi's hands, but she would not die in her hands, right? Besides, Gu Qingxi also had good intentions. What good would it do for her to kill Ruoyun?
Don't worry, don't worry about anything.
Putting aside the ominous premonition, Chi Wanqiu wrote a letter and ordered the guards to send it to the Meng family to accept their challenge.
Then he led Gu Qingxi and Xiao Yutang to the guest house, arranged accommodation for them, and asked the kitchen to prepare a welcoming banquet.
It must be said that the cooking skills of the City Lord's Mansion are really good. Although they are slightly inferior to Ah Xiu, thanks to the unique ingredients of the Jiuli Mingxu Realm, the dishes on the table are also delicious. Just smelling the exotic fragrance will make you salivate.
Gu Qingxi praised while eating. Xiao Yutang, who had been forgotten, also turned his grief and anger into appetite and couldn't stop eating.
"Ruoyun, don't be polite, eat more." Gu Qingxi didn't forget Gongye Ruoyun while eating, and picked up the public chopsticks to put food in his bowl.
"Senior Gu, you are the guest, don't pay attention to me." Looking at the various dishes piled up like a mountain in the bowl, Gongye Ruoyun felt a little embarrassed.
It has always been the host who takes care of the guests, how can the guests take care of the host like this?
Xiao Yutang next to him was sad again: What do you mean you are the guest? Shouldn't it be you? Who am I, where am I, do I really exist?
Forget it, turn the grief into appetite, and continue to eat.
"It's okay, while you still have an appetite today, eat more, you may not be able to eat in the future." Gu Qingxi advised earnestly, and continued to put dishes into Gongye Ruoyun's bowl.
