"Yes, we have done a lot of good deeds to benefit all living beings, but it is still difficult to give up these worldly affairs."

"In fact, how many people in the world can let the world go on? I am in the clear wind and bright moon, facing the complicated worldly things, and just laugh it off?"

"That realm is not that of an immortal, but a saint."

Everyone in the hall was quite sighing. They were a group of people standing at the top of the heaven, but it was difficult for them to reach that kind of transcendent state.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this that people's understanding of the Tao is slow and complicated.

After reaching the sky, what comes into view is not a city, but mountains shrouded in clouds and mist.

Most of the mountains are connected by spiritual bridges. At a glance, you can see many ancient buildings and many monks with extraordinary demeanor.

Jiang Zhige circled in the sky for a long time but couldn't find the edge of Zixia City. Its area was obviously much larger than that of ordinary cities.

After observing for a while, Jiang Zhige noticed that there was a place that was quite lively. In the middle there was a giant disc similar to an arena, and at least hundreds of monks gathered nearby.

Jiang Zhige landed near the disc, grabbed a young monk who was watching the fun, and asked, "Daoyou, why are you all gathered here?"

As he had just arrived, he wanted to know Nangong Rou's movements, so naturally he had to find out some news about Zixiao City.

"The head of the Nangong family has set up a special competition today to arrange the wedding for his daughter, Nangong Jing. Whoever wins the competition and defeats Nangong Jing herself can become the son-in-law of the Nangong family and marry Nangong Jing."

The young monk was stunned. How could there be someone in Zixiao City who didn't know about this?

"Isn't this a martial arts competition to win a bride?"

Jiang Zhige's heart trembled. Nangong Jing, who else could it be but Nangong Rou? Five years later, her beloved sister was finally going to get married.

"It's not really a martial arts competition to win a husband. In my opinion, the Nangong family's setting up of the competition stage is probably just a gimmick. The winner will most likely be Bai Xiuyuan from the Bai family. The Bai family and the Nangong family are almost the same in power, and they have long had the intention of forming a marriage alliance. Unfortunately, Miss Nangong Jing has no intention of love, so the Nangong family can only resort to this last resort, forcing Miss Nangong Jing to accept Bai Xiuyuan after she is defeated."

The young monk shook his head and sighed. The two families had the intention of forming a marriage alliance, and the Bai family was a super aristocratic family. Even if one could defeat Bai Xiuyuan, no one would dare to snatch the bride.

So, it was said to be a martial arts competition to win a bride, but in fact it was to push Nangong Jing to Bai Xiuyuan.

Jiang Zhige frowned slightly when he heard this. This meant that the Nangong family wanted to push Nangong Rou out for marriage instead of letting her marry the person she loved.

"Brother, Miss Nangong Jing is about to get married. You must be sad, right? Unfortunately, I am not strong enough and do not even have the qualifications to register. Otherwise, I would not care about the Bai family and would definitely defeat Bai Xiuyuan."

The young man showed regret on his face. Nangong Jing had always been known as the most beautiful woman in Zixiao City. She was the dream goddess of many people, but it was really a pity that she would get married in this way.

Jiang Zhige's eyes lit up and he asked, "Can other people sign up?"

"Of course, you don't want to sign up, do you? The registration requirements are that the bone age cannot exceed 30 years old, and the cultivation must be at least at the Dao Seed Realm. Bai Xiuyuan and Miss Nangong are at the Yuanhai Realm. Ordinary people who go there will either be beaten or used as stepping stones."

The young monk was stunned for a moment and looked Jiang Zhige up and down.

However, no matter how he looked at it, Jiang Zhige did not look like a top-level genius who could break through to the Yuanhai realm before the age of thirty.

"Yuanhai Realm?"

Jiang Zhige was shocked. After only five years, Nangong Rou had reached the same level of Yuanhai Realm cultivation as his master Yao Qianji? You know, the further you go in cultivation, the more difficult it becomes. Lu Tianjiao was known as the number one prodigy in Tianyun Pavilion. After five years of hard work day and night, he only managed to break through from the late Lingwu Realm to the early Daozhong Realm.

Jiang Zhige was able to reach the middle stage of Daozhong Realm with the help of Tiansha, otherwise he would have been at most in the middle stage of Lingwu Realm.

"Well, this isn't a bad thing for her."

Jiang Zhige hesitated for a long time, but finally gave up the idea of ​​participating in the competition.

He was not afraid of not being able to defeat his opponent, but he felt that there was no need to interfere too much in Nangong Rou's life.

Besides, any top genius who can break through the Yuanhai realm before the age of thirty, as long as he is not so ugly that he cannot be described, must be better than him, a waste who relies on the help of monsters to reach the middle stage of the Daozhong realm.

The young monk secretly despised it. What was not a bad thing? He thought Jiang Zhige was just scared.

How can it not be a bad thing that the goddess you have been dreaming about is about to marry someone you don't like?

"All the people who are going to participate in the competition are here, why hasn't Mr. Bai shown up yet?"

"Look, that looks like the Bai family's carriage, and the person sitting inside must be the young master of the Bai family!"

At this moment, a burst of discussion arose in the crowd, attracting Jiang Zhige's attention.

Jiang Zhige looked up, but could only see a faint purple air.

When the purple air dissipated, one could see a team of dozens of white-armored guards leading the way, and a chariot pulled by a nine-headed moon-grabbing unicorn beast coming through the air.

Behind the carriage, there were two white-armored guards holding a black flag with a white character printed on it. They were obviously the Bai family's team.

“What a grand occasion”

The young cultivator's eyelids twitched. The Moon-Grabbing Qilin beasts were at least at the Soul-Breaking Realm. Each one of them could easily trample him to death, but they were treated as livestock by the Bai family.

The chariot stopped in mid-air but did not land on the ground. A young man in white clothes lifted the curtain of the chariot and walked towards the competition arena step by step, stepping on the void.

The young man in white had a handsome appearance, holding a folding fan in his hand, and was graceful and had an extraordinary bearing. He must be the Bai Xiuyuan mentioned by the young monk.

“Not bad looking”

Jiang Zhige breathed a sigh of relief. If Bai Xiuyuan was a fat and ugly old man, he would have risked his life to protect Nangong Rou's innocence.

Among the crowd, there were not only male monks, but also many female monks.

When they saw Bai Xiuyuan appear, many female monks showed an infatuated expression.

"What a shame, what a shame. Why would Mr. Bai obey the family's will and marry a little girl who is so cold to him?"

"Mr. Bai is so talented and beautiful that he is willing to marry Nangong Jing, but that stinky woman dared to be unhappy. She really doesn't know what's good for her."

"Fuck, you bunch of women, Miss Nangong is such a beauty, why don't you say that it's a favor for her to marry Bai Xiuyuan?"

The crowd was polarized. The men felt sorry for Nangong Rou getting married, while the women mocked her for being ungrateful.

Jiang Zhige was quite pleased with this. It seemed that he had overthought it before. With so many women pursuing him, Bai Xiuyuan was obviously a young talent.
