Chapter 65
Hearing Feng Jue's joke, Siyi actually took out the lucky charm from her storage ring and handed it to 03. The disciples standing behind them, listening attentively, wanted to laugh but didn't dare.
Mu Rong put her arm on Xue Mengtao's shoulder and couldn't help saying, "Elder Si is so terrifying!" He actually carried this thing with him.
Xue Mengtao speculated, "Master knows the location of the second round of competition. Since we're coming to Luoxia City, perhaps we can meet the City Lord. Taking her calligraphy with us might be useful."
"..." Mu Rong slowly lowered her hand that was on Xue Mengtao's shoulder and patted Xue Mengtao on the back.
Otherwise, you are Elder Si’s disciple!
In just half a year, Xue Mengtao was already able to guess Elder Si's thoughts. Elder Si was truly tireless in teaching her!
Compared to them, 03 had no extra thoughts. She happily unfolded the scroll. This calligraphy, offered as an apology by the City Lord of Luoxia, was truly apologetic. Firstly, it was made of solid material and wide enough for two 03s to stand together. After unfolding, it landed on the ground with a clatter and rolled towards the deck.
The moment the scroll was unrolled, golden light shone from the paper, and the disciples on either side hurriedly moved aside, turning their heads to avoid the golden glow. When the scroll was finally unrolled, everyone looked at this carpet-like treasure of calligraphy and could not help but sigh with emotion.
"I, the palace master, feel the city lord's apology." Feng Jue said expressionlessly.
On the rice paper, thick golden ink strokes flowed gracefully, inscribed with the words "招财进宝" (meaning "attract wealth and bring in treasures"). Two seals were stamped at the bottom: one the "Zhao Qingcheng Seal" and the other a golden ingot emblem.
03 knew the name of the City Lord of Luoxia City. After scanning the golden calligraphy, he glanced below the deck and saw the golden ingot flags fluttering all over the city. He couldn't help but sigh: "I think the City Lord of Luoxia City is an open-minded person!"
Naked and hanging your desires everywhere.
Feng Jue chuckled softly, standing on the other side of the scroll, and reached out to roll up the large scroll with 03. The other disciples looked at him, wondering if they could trouble the Palace Master to do such a thing personally. When they were about to step forward, Siyi waved her hand behind her back, causing them to pause and put their hands behind their backs.
The golden ink flowed with wealth, and just looking at it made one think one could make a fortune. 03 also wanted to write a calligraphy like this for the main system and her good friend. When the last bit of the golden ink faded, she asked, "Did Luoxia City Lord write with gold powder?"
Feng Jue curled his lips and said to her meaningfully, "I think City Lord Zhao might feel that gold powder is too vulgar and not as good as the traditional ink that returns to its original simplicity."
Siyi smiled with her hands covering her lips, and when she glanced at 03's thoughtful expression, her smile deepened.
03 said, “I understand.”
Pixiu.
Feng Jue glanced at 03, looked at her calm expression, raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and wanted to hear from her in person how she understood the law, when a small boat flew over from a distance, a real boat.
A woman stood on it. She had a beautiful face and a hearty laugh. She asked from a distance, "I have been waiting in the city for a long time. Today, I finally saw the Wendao Academy ship. May I ask who is on board and where are you from?"
On the Wendao Academy's ship, Lan Zhi led the others standing on the deck. She saluted the woman and said softly, "Lan Zhi of the Wendao Academy, supervising the Dongzhou Competition, greets the City Lord."
It turns out that this person is the Lord of Luoxia City, Zhao Qingcheng.
As the Lord of Luoxia City, Zhao Qingcheng was not only renowned for her wealth, but she was also a powerful cultivator with a high level of cultivation, ruling the region. Unexpectedly, she personally came out to greet the disciples of the East Continent Competition. The cultivators, including Lanyang Palace, were thrilled and quickly saluted Zhao Qingcheng.
03 Following Feng Jue, he bowed to Zhao Qingcheng and thought: The Lord of Luoxia City is not only enthusiastic, but also very simple.
Zhao Qingcheng wore a golden dress and no makeup. A flower, budding and about to bloom, was tucked into her hair. She smiled and said, "I'll take you to where you're staying."
After saying that, he sailed around the Wendao Academy and landed on the magnificent ship of the Lanyang Palace.
Feng Jue… smiled without surprise and said, "City Lord Zhao."
City Lord Zhao was full of enthusiasm, looking like he wanted to give Feng Jue a hug. He said loudly, "Palace Lord Feng, although I am in Zhongzhou, I have long heard of the reputation of Lanyang Palace and have always been looking forward to meeting you!"
Feng Jue wondered whether he was looking forward to meeting her or to meeting her spirit stone.
He said slowly, "No problem."
"In that case, I'll take the Lanyang Palace ship for a ride." City Lord Zhao laughed heartily and pointed. A high pavilion perched on a hill in Luoxia City erupted in golden fireworks. Lan Zhi then sailed to the spot where the fireworks were set off.
As they landed, they realized the forest was incredibly vast, easily accommodating not just 3,000 people, but even 30,000. However, there were no disciples waiting at the gate. There was only a map hanging nearby, with disciples from each continent arranged according to the directions of east, south, west, and north, and the courtyards divided according to the sects.
The courtyards were scattered, but each one was extremely spacious, with the training rooms and martial arts training grounds marked out. When 03 scanned, he also saw the shop sign of "Chengxian Yaotang" in each area.
03: "Wow!"
Not free.
The disciples of Wen Dao Academy also lived in this mountain forest. Lan Zhi saluted with Luoxia City Lord and said, "Thank you, senior."
"Okay, okay, if
If you have any trouble, just come to me at the mansion. If you need anything—” Zhao Qingcheng raised a finger, looking towards the wide road in front of the mountain gate, and said cheerfully, “Once you set foot on this road, just keep going forward. Whatever you want, we can sell it in the city!”
Lan Zhi paused and asked softly, "May I ask the City Lord about the venue for the second round of competition..."
"Oh!" Zhao Qingcheng clapped her hands and said with a smile, "Venerable Xingmo sent me a message earlier. He has his own arrangements for the second round of competition. He just asked me to set up the venue. Here."
She pointed to the wide road and laughed, "Just keep going straight ahead along this road. It's only two kilometers away, and you'll reach the competition venue!"
03 Standing at the foot of the mountain, you can see rows of shops with golden ingot flags fluttering in the wind, which looks very grand and prosperous.
Siyi smiled and said to City Lord Zhao in a gentle voice, "Perhaps there is a no-flying rule in Luoxia City?"
"That's right!" Zhao Qingcheng said with a smile.
Siyi glanced at the quiet mountain again and whispered softly, "The City Lord hasn't arranged any disciples here. I guess with the second round of the competition approaching and all the cultivators from around the world coming to Luoxia City, they have more important things to do?"
"Time is precious!" Zhao Qingcheng shook her head. The two looked at each other with a sense of mutual sympathy.
03 I felt like Zhao Qingcheng was about to roll up her sleeves and write a piece for Siyi titled "Making Money is Important." Feng Jue, standing nearby, raised his hand, touched the spiritual flowers dangling from the mountain gate, plucked one, smiled, and asked Lan Zhi, "Senior Sister, when is the second round of the competition scheduled?"
Lan Zhi said: "Three days later."
Feng Jue nodded and said to the twelve selected disciples from Lanyang Palace behind him, "I don't want to explain the importance of the Dongzhou Competition. Just be aware of it. You can make your own arrangements for the next three days."
He then said to the palace servants who outnumbered his disciples by twice their number, "From now on, my attention will be focused on the competition. Only two people will be left in the room to look after it. The rest can make their own arrangements."
The disciples and servants of Lanyang Palace bowed and saluted. The servants in particular were very excited and said, "Yes."
03 Tilt your head to look at Zhao Qingcheng, and feel that Zhao Qingcheng is also very excited now, and is about to write "A true friend is hard to find" to Feng Jue!
City Lord Zhao happily watched the guests from Dongzhou - his close friends - walking towards the courtyard in the mountains and forests. After everyone disappeared, he shrank into an inch and prepared to welcome the next boat of close friends from afar.
Compared with the palaces of Lanyang Palace, the pavilions and towers in the mountains and forests appear particularly elegant, just as described in the poems of literati, where the universe is within reach and nature is freehand.
At least the tiles here are black.
03 He raised his head and glanced at the plaque of the garden where Feng Jue lived. The vermilion plaque was very new, and the handwriting was very familiar. It was engraved with the three words "Mian Fengtai".
The palace servants took out various furniture from their storage rings and tidied up the rooms. Feng Jue strolled around the garden and said with satisfaction, "The City Lord is thoughtful."
With such thoughtfulness, the host and the guest could naturally continue the conversation happily. Moreover, while on the boat, Feng Jue had already agreed to go out for a walk with 03. 03 quickly pulled up the golden net at his waist and took out the two spirit beads from it.
Ling Shi, who was "helping" the palace servants, heard that she was going out. She ran over wagging her invisible tail, her big eyes flashing, and looked at Feng Jue expectantly.
Phoenix Technique: "..."
Forgot this.
She cleared her throat, took out a box of spirit beads from her storage ring, handed it to her, and said, "After you transformed, Xue Mengtao and Murong helped you a lot. Take these spirit beads and take them around the city. If there's anything they want, just buy it."
Ling Shi: “Good!”
03 heard it and took out a box of spirit beads from her storage ring and placed it on top of the spirit beads Feng Jue had given her. She raised a finger and said to Ling Shi seriously, "You have to learn to control yourself. If you spend money, you will become poor."
Lingshi, who had never experienced a consumer trap, didn't understand that the senior's wise advice came from her heavy experience. She just nodded happily and skipped off to find her friends.
Jiao needs to buy a big chessboard first!
03 Buy two strings of candied haws first.
She took Feng Jue's hand and led her out happily.
"Feng Jue, I've memorized the map. Don't worry, I won't let you get lost."
Feng Jue snorted softly and whispered, "If you dare to abandon me, I will not forgive you."
03 chuckled, picked a bunch of pink and purple flowers, and put them on Feng Jue. Feng Jue looked at the stone beside him and asked casually, "Does it look good?"
"Beautiful!" 03 said firmly, not noticing that Feng Jue's voice was a little unnatural, and said happily, "She is more beautiful than flowers, as beautiful as flowers and jade, with a beauty that can captivate the whole country!"
"City Lord Zhao also thinks you are beautiful!"
Feng Jue smiled and said, "Nonsense."
"City Lord Zhao probably only has spirit stones in her eyes. Even someone as exquisite as you stood before her, she didn't even glance at you twice," Feng Jue said slowly. 03's long silver hair was extremely eye-catching, and anyone who saw it would have to stare at it for a moment, especially since she had such a beautiful face.
03Thinking: Feng Jue thinks she is very delicate.
Feng Jue's eyes rolled, and he said mischievously, "If I were to carve you out of spirit stone and place it before City Lord Zhao, she would definitely write a thousand-word eulogy for you!"
03 raised Jiuxiao and said with a smile: "I can first use the spirit stone to carve a Phoenix Technique."
"Please give you
Please give me your portrait rights, and I will carve a beautiful you."
"Ha!" Thinking of 03's previous "handmade" works, Feng Jue sneered and said, "No."
"Alas." 03 sighed, "Disappointed."
The two talked as they walked, and soon they stepped onto the long street. Suddenly, there were more people around them, the crowd was crowded, and there were many shops as stars in the sky. Business seemed to be very prosperous.
When Feng Jue and 03 came side by side, everyone who saw them fell silent for a moment, their eyes unable to help but follow them. Feng Jue lowered her eyelashes, not concealing her features.
The second round of the competition is about to begin, and there is nothing to hide. Given the actions of City Lord Guan Zhao, there shouldn't be too many ignorant people in Luoxia City.
Just as Feng Jue had thought, as the two of them walked slowly, apart from the crowd who subconsciously made way and the exceptionally enthusiastic shopkeepers, no one came forward to harass them - those who wanted to come forward were pinned to the ground by Feng Jue's cold gaze and left in embarrassment.
However, as they walked along, they discovered that the only things sold on this street were spiritual objects and treasures, and there was no food that 03 had been thinking about. After asking around, they learned that they had to take another detour.
03 Holding Feng Jue's hand, the two walked along the long street as if taking a leisurely stroll.
The lights were just coming on, and colorful lanterns were hanging overhead, making the place look as lively as a festival. Going past a fork in the road, there was a winding river with green willows on both sides and an arch bridge across it.
Perhaps cultivators also have the idea that food is the most important thing. The road ahead became more crowded, and the two people walked slower. 03 thought: Then I will talk to Feng Jue.
She lowered her eyes.
Feng Jue, who was bored, had his eyelashes drooping, but when he noticed 03's gaze, he turned his gaze.
The colorful lights cast scattered lights, illuminating her eyes, which were more sparkling than the river in the distance.
03 curved his eyes and said, "Feng Jue, today on the boat, I wanted to ask City Lord Zhao if taking such a small flying boat was to save spirit stones."
And later, she even boarded the Lanyang Palace's large ship. 03 was very suspicious and looked serious. Feng Jue was silent for a moment and asked her, "Then why didn't you ask?"
03 smiled and said, "I think if I ask her in front of so many people, City Lord Zhao might lose face."
This time Feng Jue was really surprised. She pulled 03 towards herself, raised her hand and pinched 03's cheek to see if this was the real 03.
How could he have thought of this? He used to be so inconsiderate, yet he's improved?
Feng Jue's eyes turned and he asked, "Then why did you talk to Lan Zhi like that before coming to Luoxia City?"
Orchid?
03 thought for a moment and said, "Oh!"
"That's the result of my careful analysis, and it's an irrefutable fact," 03's voice was a little vague. "I think if I tell Lan Zhi the truth, she won't feel embarrassed."
Feng Jue frowned, loosened the pulled soft flesh, rubbed it, and thought to himself: There is progress, but not much.
03 She reached out and touched the place where Feng Jue had pinched her, laughing heartily. Her eyes were filled with the light cast by the Yuanbao Lantern, and in the light was the shadow of Feng Jue.
Are you still proud? Feng Jue laughed, took her hand, and asked, "Well, since you've relieved me of so much worry today, I'll treat you to a delicious meal. The Lord of Luoxia City has a good way of making money, and has gathered merchants from all over the world. All the delicacies from all over the world are here, just eat as much as you can."
03’s eyes lit up even more and he immediately gave a thumbs up.
The two walked forward along the crowd, and when they stepped onto the arch bridge engraved with "A House Full of Gold and Jade", they suddenly heard a scream from the sky. The people in the city looked up and saw a blue light falling like a meteor, rushing straight towards the bridge.
"Stone from outer space!" someone yelled. 03 saw the eyes of the people around him suddenly turned into gold ingots, and they rushed over one after another, as if waiting to grab the blue light as soon as it fell.
However, before the blue light landed, a clear girl's voice followed closely behind, shouting: "Water Dragon Song!"
Feng Jue stopped and said, "Tsk."
03: "Huh?"
They both thought of the aquamarine dragon. If it was a familiar dragon, 03 raised an arm, gazing around, ready to catch a guest who might drop from the sky.
The water dragon flying straight down let out a low roar.
The dragon roared like thunder, shaking the world. No matter how greedy the people of Luoxia City were, they were still afraid in front of a dragon and surged back like a tide.
clatter.
Only two figures, one in blue and one in red, remained on the bridge.
"bite--"
The water dragon's roar landed on the ground, making a sound like jade clashing with the ground. The spear transformed into a dragon shadow, a terrifying dragon shape coiling around the bridge. Feng Jue stood beside 03 without saying a word, but saw the eyes of the water dragon image look at her, along her face, down, and resting on her chest.
“…” Feng Jue narrowed his eyes and clenched his fingers.
Holding hands, Feng Jue squeezed hard, causing 03 to cry out in pain. Shui Longyin's gaze immediately shifted from Feng Jue's chest to 03, their eyes meeting. Both Dragon and 03 tilted their heads simultaneously.
03 thought for a moment, raised his hand, and waved, "Go away."
I'm busy, I want to go eat something delicious.
The water dragon roared, glanced at 03, and took off as it had come, transforming once more into a spear and shooting into the air like a meteor. Feng Jue looked up and saw a large ship with the inscription "Morning and evening hearing the truth, warm and moist" slowly moving forward.
"Nanyang Continent?" Feng Jue said slowly.
"Shui Longyin!" Qiu Shuangshuang, who had not yet landed, saw Shui Longyin flying towards the boat without looking back. She was so angry that she waved her fist in the air. She lowered her head to look at the ground. What was Shui Longyin looking for?
She saw a white-haired woman on the bridge, waving at her with her head tilted up. She looked extremely beautiful, yet also extremely unfamiliar.
"What a beautiful woman...eh?" Qiu Shuangshuang's eyes lit up. She didn't recognize this beautiful woman, but she knew the one next to her!
"Master!" Qiu Shuangshuang shouted loudly, landed on the ground happily, and ran towards the bridge.
"Oh." Feng Jue sighed and thought to himself: My ears are in trouble.
“Master!”
03 With his eyes bent, he waved to Qiu Shuangshuang and said, "Qiu Shuangshuang has grown taller."
Qiu Shuangshuang, who had just run up to them, was even more confused when she heard this. She caught a glimpse of their holding hands out of the corner of her eye, and her expression of surprise fell on them, her eyes "swish".
Master is holding hands with this beautiful woman!
The pretty woman knew her and said she had grown taller!
The master mentioned her to her as a good disciple!
Master is still holding her hand!
Then what is there to hesitate about?
Qiu's eyes sparkled as he looked at 03 and blurted out excited words.
"Master's Wife!"
The author has something to say
Phoenix Secret: Hiss.
03:?
