Chapter 306: Disaster is coming and strange signs appear
Maidong finally persuaded Guanlan to leave after much persuasion, and then he had the time to carry Chi Yanzi down the mountain and hurried to the outside of Wuji Palace.
It was quite lively outside the Wuji Hall. A circle of disciples surrounded the martial arts stage, cheering, booing, and chattering as if they were playing chess with a bird.
Maidong put Chi Yanzi down, but he suffered a lot from the bumpy ride and was gasping for breath. But when he looked at Maidong again, he saw that she was fine, with no blush on her face or any palpitations in her heart. She just stretched her neck to watch, which made Chi Yanzi marvel at her - this little girl is really an extraordinary woman!
The clothes of the Yuanqing sect disciples were either blue or light green, but there were actually disciples wearing other styles of clothes among the present, which made Maidong feel very strange.
Ever since Maidong was brought back to Yuanqing by Master Fuyin, she has lived in Qiuyun Peak for a long time. Although she often goes down the mountain to help Lingxiang take care of Youranju, she rarely sees people there. Not to mention that the last time she went down the mountain without permission, she only walked to Qinxi City and did not even reach Donggui County.
But even so, Mai Dong did not think too much about it, because the person who walked onto the martial arts stage was none other than Xin Yi, whom she had been thinking about so much. Now her eyes were full of him, and she had no time to care about anything else.
As for why Cheng Yu was defeated, it wasn't his fault. The last person sent into battle by the Supreme Sect was a petite female disciple, which really made it difficult for Cheng Yu.
Cheng Qi had acquired a wealth of martial arts skills and experience since childhood, having learned from a female escort from the Chengfeng Escort Agency. This female instructor was extremely dedicated to Cheng Qi's training, and since women in the martial arts world are often informal, Cheng Qi suffered a lot under her hands.
Furthermore, Cheng Biaotou had taught Cheng Xi since he was a child that he should be careful and protective of women. With such teaching, Cheng Xi became more humble towards women over time, let alone practicing martial arts with a woman.
If Cheng Qi was a reckless person, the matter with Cheng Danruo wouldn't have troubled him so much, right?
Therefore, when the Tai Shang Sect sent out that female disciple, Cheng Yu felt extremely miserable. He did not dare to fight with all his strength, but he could not report to his superiors if he did not fight. He had no one to vent his complaints to, and he was distracted for a moment, which allowed the female disciple to take advantage of him.
Although the audience either burst into laughter or booed continuously, Cheng Qi did not feel embarrassed. Instead, he breathed a sigh of relief - even if he lost, it was better than beating a woman.
Before Xinyi went on stage, Lianqiao told Banxia that the second disciple of the Supreme Sect was truly treacherous, having actually sent a woman into battle. Even if Xinyi were to take on the challenge, he wouldn't be able to let go. Banxia, upon hearing this, couldn't help but grow concerned and quickly suggested to Lingxiang that they switch disciples, but Lingxiang refused.
"The contestants have already been chosen. If we change them now, wouldn't that mean we are inferior to them?"
It's not Hui Yan's fault. When the disciples for the competition were selected, only their names were mentioned, but no disciples came forward. The female disciple's name was Ling You, and anyone who heard it would think it was a man.
Besides, Lingxiang did use some tricks after all. Even if Huiyan did it on purpose, it is not someone else's fault. You can't allow the officials to set fires while not allowing the people to light lamps, right?
Looking at Xinyi walking onto the stage with steady steps, Huiyan felt extremely proud at this moment, but Lingxiang saw it and looked down on her.
Lingxiang understood Xinyi. In his eyes, the boundaries between good and evil, winning and losing were clear. He would not show mercy just because his opponent was a woman. Therefore, Huiyan's wishful thinking was really wrong.
However, even so, there were still things that were beyond Lingxiang's expectations.
"Xinyi! Teach her a lesson. If you lose, I will not forgive you!"
It is Ophiopogon japonicus.
Although Maidong's voice was not as terrifying as Lingxiang's, his shout was still clearly audible even amidst the noise of the crowd.
Xinyi looked at Maidong with eyes full of doting. He thought Maidong was the only one who could make him smile. He grinned at Maidong, then put his fist to his chest, telling him not to worry. He looked truly handsome, but Lingxiang, sitting nearby, frowned.
In the Dust-peeking Mirror, Lingxiang saw that in the near future, the Yuanqing Sect would experience a catastrophe, and the disciples of the Taishang Sect would be among them. This meant that the disaster would happen in the next few days, but the Dust-peeking Mirror did not reveal the cause, so Lingxiang was not sure where the disaster came from.
Therefore, Lingxiang gathered everyone here. Firstly, even if disaster strikes, there are those old men to guard against it. Secondly, it is to concentrate the available forces so that if disaster strikes, they can deal with it comprehensively and maybe escape the disaster.
Can……
But Maidong was not part of her calculations...
The Dust-peeking Mirror indicates that Ophiopogon japonicus is the cause of all this trouble!
Lingxiang had no idea what the disaster was, but she knew it all started with Maidong's appearance. She also clearly saw the conflict between Maidong and Yuanqing...
Lingxiang looked at Maidong, and then she realized that although she claimed to be able to see the big picture from the details, she could not see through this sister who had been with her for many years.
Forget it, since the peeping mirror allowed her to see everything, it was bound to happen. In that case, there was no point in worrying about it. What could be done had been done, and the rest was up to fate.
Thinking of this, Lingxiang stopped delving into the matter and focused on the martial arts arena.
Ling You's agility wasn't great, as she practiced the art of divination, but her agility was lacking. However, Xin Yi wouldn't show any mercy just because she was a woman. He was focused on a quick resolution, ending this farce, rather than dragging things out on stage with a woman who was too delicate.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the two sides settled down and remained motionless. Ling You knew the principle of "if the enemy doesn't move, I won't move either," but a stalemate like this wouldn't be a good idea.
It's not that Xinyi didn't want to take the initiative, but he was good at striking back. Even if he took the initiative, he would mostly use magic. However, this competition had already been arranged in advance, so it was a bit inconvenient for him.
Forget it, she's just a little girl anyway, and she didn't seem that powerful just now, so there's no need to be so cautious.
Thinking of this, Xinyi took a leap, then suddenly jumped up and rushed towards Ling You. Just when he was about to get close to her, she suddenly drew out her long blade and swung it down.
But at this moment, Xinyi discovered that the long deer antler blade in her hand was very unusual.
From the moment it was forged, the Deer Horn Blade was a demon-slaying sword. Possessed and passed down through the Lu family, countless demonic spirits have perished under its blade. Long infested with demonic resentment, it has become a demonic blade. However, the blade's spirit is incredibly intelligent, capable of suppressing even the presence of demonic energy.
This knife has never gone wrong since it came into Xinyi's hands. However, this time, for some reason, the blade was filled with evil spirits, as if the power of the knife spirit had weakened and could no longer suppress the resentment that had accumulated over the years.
this……
What is going on!
