"Junior Sister Su, you don't look well."

Below the fighting stage, countless people were excited and looking forward to it. On the fighting stage, Minghu, however, had gentle eyes and spoke softly to Suxin.

Su Xin took the soul-devouring pill in front of Qiu Zhihe last night. She thought she had become Qiu Zhihe's slave.

I didn't sleep last night and my mind is in a trance.

Fortunately, the opponents in the first round today were not strong and I managed to pass it smoothly.

I didn’t expect to meet Minghu in the second round.

Su Xin's mood was very complicated at this time. No matter how much she disagreed with the actions of the Zhenyang Sect's leader and several elders, she was still a disciple of the Zhenyang Sect.

At the Feixian Ceremony, in front of all the cultivators in the world, the Zhenyang Sect represented its reputation.

She naturally couldn't bring shame to the sect.

But Su Xin knew that she was no match for Ming Hu.

She was ready to fight to the death.

Qiu Zhihe had already promised herself that she would spare her mother's life. Rather than becoming a slave, if... she could die at the hands of Senior Brother Ming, it might be a good ending.

Su Xin bit her thin lips, holding the Rouxin Sword in her hand, and was about to practice her skills when she heard Minghu's gentle voice.

She was startled and looked at Minghu. At this moment, the burly man was looking at her deeply with a smile on his face.

Su Xin's expression was icy: "Brother Ming, we are enemies now, please don't hold back!"

"Minghu, beat him well, don't beat him to death!"

A big hammer flew over from a distance. Su Hongling sat on the hammer and shouted at Minghu.

On the high platform, Su Longxiang laughed and said, "Minghu, the Leijian Sect and the Zhenyang Sect have been friends for generations. Please show mercy and don't hurt Master Su's niece."

Tan Tai Ming Yue, who was sitting beside him, had a worried look in her eyes, but her face remained dignified and calm. She said to Su Xin:

"Disciple, just do your best."

For a moment, everyone looked at the two people on the fighting stage.

Su Xin held the Rouxin Sword in her hand, and her soft and beautiful eyes turned cold: "Brother Ming, please take action!"

Plop.

Minghu sat down on the ground and grinned:

"I give up."

There was an instant of silence all around, and the disciples of the Thunder Sword Sect all opened their eyes wide and their mouths agape, as if they were under a spell of being immobilized.

The others were equally confused and hadn't reacted yet.

"Brother Ming, you..."

Su Xin stared at Ming Hu blankly: "Why did you do this?"

Minghu jumped up from the ground and patted his butt: "Because I like you!"

"I'd rather not hurt you, but if we start fighting, given your personality, you will definitely do your best for the sect."

"If that really comes to the point, I'm not sure I can hurt you at all, so it's better to admit defeat now."

There was an uproar all around.

"A disciple from the Thunder Sword Sect actually likes a disciple from the Zhenyang Sect?!"

"Ming Hu is the senior brother of the Thunder Sword Sect. Is he just giving in like that?"

"Another hero falling at the feet of a beauty!"

"Su Xin is also a fairy on the beauty list. If I can marry her, I am willing to admit defeat!"

"He confessed his feelings in public and was willing to admit defeat. I would have been moved!"

People were talking about it. Su Xin stared at Ming Hu in a daze, with a look of sorrow in her beautiful eyes:

"Brother Ming, why do you have to do this?"

Minghu scratched his head: "Junior Sister Su, I just said what was in my heart, and I don't force you to answer. I know you don't like me. It's okay. Be careful in the third round and don't get hurt."

After Minghu finished speaking, he jumped off the fighting platform and waved to Suxin in a cool manner.

Su Hongling descended from the sky and patted Minghu on the shoulder: "Haha, Minghu, you finally look a bit manly!"

"What the hell, Su Hongling, what do you mean? Wasn't I like a man before?"

The two brothers and sisters walked away noisily, leaving Su Xin alone standing on the fighting stage with a confused look on her face.

"Mother, what should I do?"

She looked up at the platform, only to find that Tan Tai Ming Yue had disappeared at some point.

At this time, outside the Tiandao fighting arena.

Tan Tai Ming Yue was standing in a remote alley, surrounded by layers of isolation arrays.

Standing respectfully in front of her was a male cultivator in his thirties. His name was Wang Dan, and he was the leading disciple of Danxia Peak.

"Master, the person you asked me to look for has been found."

Wang Dan presented a portrait with both hands.

The painting shows a man with ordinary looks and decent temperament. He seems to be an ordinary person with no cultivation.

This was secretly given to him by Tan Tai Ming Yue before the Fei Xian Ceremony began.

As the second most powerful disciple of Danxia Peak, Wang Dan was not on the list of disciples for this trip to the West.

But before setting off, Tan Tai Ming Yue secretly ordered him to quietly go down the mountain and sneak into the West Imperial City in advance.

The purpose is to find the man in the portrait.

"Found it?"

Hearing his disciple's words, Tan Tai Ming Yue's eyes lit up and a rare coldness appeared in his eyes.

Wang Dan said respectfully, "This man's name is Zhou Qing. He is from West Imperial City. He is 43 years old this year and is still unmarried. However, a woman has been coming in and out of his house from time to time over the years. Most of the time, she stays for one night and then leaves."

"But no one has ever seen what that woman looks like."

"Zhou Qing left West Imperial City three years ago, and no one knows where he went."

"A few days ago, before the Feixian Ceremony began, Zhou Qing suddenly returned to West Imperial City."

Tan Tai Ming Yue asked coldly: "Where is this person now?"

Wang Dan had never seen his dignified and gentle master show such a cold and stern expression, and said in fear: "Zhou Qing is at his home right now."

"Got it, you can go back to Zhenyang Mountain."

Tan Tai Ming Yue asked about Zhou Qing's home address, and then spoke to Wang Dan.

Wang Dan was startled and said quickly: "Master, I am willing to serve you!"

Tan Tai Ming Yue shook her head: "This is a personal grudge between Lin Yuan and me, and we must not let the sect disciples interfere."

"Queen Lin Yuan of the West?"

Wang Dan was startled, then said: "Master, since I have already investigated the people related to Queen Xi, I can no longer stay out of it. Master, please tell me the secrets. I am willing to follow you!"

He knelt down suddenly with a firm attitude.

Tan Tai Ming Yue sighed and helped him up: "Dan Er, this is a dangerous matter, are you really not afraid?"

"It was Master who raised me and taught me skills. Following Master, I am not afraid of anything!"

Wang Dan said loudly.

Tan Tai Ming Yue nodded: "In that case, I will tell you, this Zhou Qing... is Lin Yuan's lover, and also Wu Yiren's biological father!"

"Tonight, I will catch this man and expose his affair with Lin Yuan to the world!"

…

The heavenly fighting field.

On the high platform.

"Queen, what do you think of He Zhiqiu?"

Wu Zheng asked Lin Yuan with a smile.

Lin Yuan's eyebrows softened as she said to Wu Zheng, "Your Majesty, there are not many physical cultivators in this world. The only one who can practice physical cultivation to such a level is probably Qiu Zhihe's husband... Qin Gengyun."

Wu Zheng chuckled: "So, He Zhiqiu's wife... Ruomei, is most likely Qiu Zhihe in disguise?"

Lin Yuan said gently: "I know what the emperor is thinking. If you really like her, you can bring her into the palace. I won't mind."
