In the evening, when the official ship Chu Xisheng was riding slowly left the shore, the martial arts cultivators on the Tianling County dock still refused to disperse.
They were each in groups of three or five, talking endlessly.
Some people are still unfulfilled, some are regretful, some are filled with hatred, some are filled with emotion, and some are arguing loudly until their faces turn red.
"——Is there no one left in Wuzhou? Let an outsider run wild in our territory!"
"There really is no one left. At the eighth level, Zhen Nian and Bai Quanda are the two strongest young swordsmen. The top ten on the Qingyun Ranking are all seventh level, and they are a round older.
The ending is a bit unjustifiable.”
"What a shame and humiliation! What a shame and humiliation! The dignified Wuzhou was suppressed by a bastard from Dongzhou!"
"These are the Ten Great Swordsmen of Shenxiu! It is indeed not unreasonable for Tianji Pavilion to arrange the Ten Great Swordsmen of Shenxiu."
"I'm just curious, what happened with that sword strike just now? It was just an ordinary sword-drawing gesture, but the sword speed was just a little faster. Zhen Nian had clearly distanced himself, so why didn't he use the sword to block it? It seems like
He simply lost on purpose."
"This is impossible! There must be some reason. Several fifth-grade martial arts cultivators were present on the stage just now, but they didn't say anything. Besides, who is Zhen Nian? His family has a fortune of tens of millions, how could he deliberately lose to Chu Xisheng?"
"I was just under the ring, and I heard with my own ears that the leader of the Iron Sword Gang said that he had a trick: a white horse is not a horse, a young hero, Xiujiang, the waves behind push the waves ahead."
Zhuang Zhengde, the Five Elements Divine Sword, stood on the stone platform, looking at the departing official ship with his hands behind his back.
He listened to the arguments in the audience and secretly smiled bitterly.
This time, their Wuzhou Wulin was really embarrassed.
At this moment, an elegant old man in blue shirt came to the stone platform.
"Brother Zhuang, I want to know what happened to Chu Xisheng's knife just now? I was too far away and didn't see clearly."
Zhuang Zhengde looked back and found that the person coming was none other than the master of Lunwu Building in Wuzhou.
He smiled slightly: "There is a trace of the charm of heaven incorporated into his sword. The white horse is not a horse. It is ambiguous, specious, and confusing. People can't see the position of his long sword clearly, and they can't judge what move he is using.
Law."
"A white horse is not a horse?" The old man in green clothes groaned, with a serious face: "So, this guy's sword is very tricky?"
Zhuang Zhengde's thick eyebrows slightly raised: "Of course it's tricky. The key is that he uses the Wind Chasing Knife! The speed of this knife is already the best at the same level. At the eighth level, I can't think of anyone who can block his sword.
.”
The old man in green shirt's brow has been beaten into the character "Chuan".
He knew how terrifying this sword was just by imagining it.
Chu Xisheng's sharp knife is so fast that it can chase the wind and lightning.
Unexpectedly, in addition to the sharp knife, this child also incorporates the charm of heaven, making people confused about its specific location.
Even if Chu Xisheng's opponent could barely keep up with his hand speed, he didn't know how to defend himself.
The old man in green shirt frowned: "So from Brother Zhuang's point of view, with Chu Xisheng's strength, is he qualified to be selected into the top ten talents of Shenxiu?"
As the owner of Wuzhou Lunwu Building, he also has good eyesight.
But after all, the old man in green shirt didn't see Chu Xisheng's knife up close, so he had to consult Zhuang Zhengde for his opinion...
"I have no idea."
Zhuang Zhengde shook his head: "His white horse is not without its weaknesses. He wants to integrate the charm of that day's sword into his sword moves, and consumes a huge amount of real energy. This child's cultivation is still weak, and he only has the eighth-level Yuan Gong.
.No matter how powerful his bloodline talent is, he probably won’t be able to kill a white horse or a non-horse with ten swords.
As long as he waits until his true energy is exhausted, there is a chance of winning. However, no one in the eighth grade has this ability. Only those from Heluo and Beijing have already entered seventh grade at the age of fourteen or fifteen.
, but it is possible to suppress him."
The most outstanding among those people has reached the seventh level of cultivation.
They are about the same age as Chu Xisheng, or even younger. They are truly among their peers.
Zhuang Zhengde then changed his voice: "But no matter what, you will be laughed at this time when you talk about martial arts. This boy is so outstanding, but he was only ranked twenty-ninth on the Dongzhou Qingyun list by your martial arts. What exactly is this?
Is it that Dongzhou’s martial arts level is too high? Or is it that Dongzhou’s Non-Martial Arts Tower is blind and does not recognize heroes?”
Even the Wuzhou Wulin with them became a laughing stock.
From now on, when people talk about today's battle, they will only say that Wuzhou Qingyun Fourteen was defeated by Dongzhou Qingyun Twenty-Nine.
The old man in blue shirt smiled awkwardly and felt a slight headache at the same time.
This is naturally because Dongzhou Lunwu Tower is blind.
Chu Xisheng is so powerful that he is qualified to enter the top ten even in Heluo and Jingcheng, let alone Dongzhou.
In fact, this is not a big deal. Lunwulou is not omniscient and omnipotent. Occasionally there will be omissions, which is normal.
The problem is that this time Tianji Pavilion ranked Chu Xisheng among the "Ten Excellent Swordsmen of Shenxiu".
This is an unknown number of rankings away from the Qingyun Ranking ranked by Nonwu Tower.
The Ten Great Swordsmen of Shenxiu are all young heroes who can enter the Qingyun General Ranking.
And above the 29th place on the Dongzhou Qingyun List, there are thirty-eight states in the world, thirty-eight sub-lists, and thousands of Qingyun Tianjiao.
This will inevitably lead to people in the world comparing "Tianji Wupu" with "Lunwu Shenji", wanting to know which one of the two is more accurate.
The old man in green shirt can only hope that those in the capital, led by the 'Crazy Sword' Wang Ming, can suppress Chu Xisheng's limelight.
At this time, on the official ship, Zuo Qingyun had already set up a banquet to celebrate Chu Xi's victory.
He had just won more than 30,000 taels thanks to Chu Xisheng, so he had to express his gratitude.
It was time for the dinner, so Zuo Qingyun asked the best restaurant on the dock to prepare the best table as quickly as possible.
Du Yunlai was picking up vegetables while talking to Chu Xisheng: "Xiao Chu, your trick of white horse but not horse is really amazing. It's a pity that Du is not a disciple of the Wuxiang Shen Sect, otherwise I would have to learn it."
Du Yunlai's words were full of regret.
The "white horse is not a horse" charm of heaven is actually very consistent with his Baiyun Sword. If he can learn this move, his combat power will be greatly improved.
However, this is the secret biography of the Wuxiang Divine Sect, and Du Yunlai can only look forward to it and sigh.
Zuo Qingyun enthusiastically handed Chu Xisheng a glass of wine: "Just now it really opened my eyes. The so-called Qingyun Twelve in Wuzhou were not Xisheng's enemies. But this white horse is not a horse. Could it be?
Xisheng, what you said is the strongest sword?"...
"No!" Chu Xisheng smiled and shook his head.
He took the wine glass with an inscrutable expression: "So far, no one has seen my fastest knife and my strongest knife."
——Only after being seriously injured.
But there is no need to say it verbally, as the effect of showing off will be greatly reduced.
The four people present, Du Yunlai, Zuo Tianlu, Ji Qianqian and Sikong Xin, couldn't help but glance at each other, with a hint of curiosity in their eyes.
※※※※
Eight days later, inside the cave complex of Tianji Pavilion in the capital.
Brothers Hu Kan and Hu Lai walked side by side in the deep cave passage.
They bumped into many colleagues along the way, and they all greeted them with smiles. Many seniors from Tianji Pavilion also looked kind and friendly.
"Isn't this Da Hu and Xiao Hu? The Shenxiu Ten Heroes did a good job, but this time they stepped on the face of Lonwu Tower."
"Have you heard about Erhu? Yesterday evening, Chu Xisheng defeated Long Xiaoyun, who was ranked ninth on the Qingyun Ranking in Feizhou, and won with one blow. This little guy is amazing!"
"Since Chu Xisheng entered the canal, he has defeated twenty-seven people in a row in the past nine days! He suppressed Wuzhou, Ningzhou, Dingzhou, and Feizhou, and so far, no one has been his enemy! The only one who has stood up
Dingzhou Duyuan, who has passed six moves, is already over seventeen years old, and his cultivation level is below the seventh level. How dare he have the nerve to challenge?"
"You two have good vision! I thought that when Chu Xisheng went north to the capital, our Tianji Pavilion would inevitably be embarrassed this time. But it turned out that this boy swept through the four states with one sword and one sword. With this boy's record, he is enough to compete with He
I can compare myself to those young heroes from Luo Erzhou."
"Dongzhou Lunwu Tower is really blind. A figure like Chu Xisheng was only ranked twenty-nine!"
"Young man, you have a bright future! In recent years, Lunwu Pavilion has relied on their many branches all over the world to spread rumors in the local area that our Tianji Wupu list is false and extremely biased. They even said that Tianji Pavilion plagiarized their Lunwu Pavilion. But what about now?
?”
"It seems that Lunwu Pavilion is getting worse and worse. There are too many people and there are constant internal fights. If you want to say that the ranking is accurate, you still have to look at my Tianji martial arts record. But what makes me happy is that there are successors in our Tianji Pavilion."
This is a treatment that Hu Kan and Hu Lai have never experienced since they joined Tianji Pavilion. They are a bit flattered.
When the two came to the cave where 'Tōbo' was located, their boss, the owner of Tobo, actually smiled and patted them on the shoulder.
"The candidates you recommended this time are very good. I will continue to work hard in the future. In our Tianji Pavilion ranking, we must have a pair of discerning eyes to find real gold from the gravel."
He shook his head and sighed: "When I first read Chu Xisheng's documents, I felt that Dongzhou Lunwu Tower had underestimated him, but I didn't expect that they would underestimate him to this extent. This man's sword skills are chasing the wind."
The electricity is enough to compete with those northern teenagers.
I still remember that seven days ago, I was sitting here with a distraught look on my face, unable to sit or stand at ease. It wasn’t until I learned that Chu Xisheng had defeated Bai Quanda and Zhen Nian, and crushed Wuzhou with swords, that I realized that we had underestimated him.
"
The elegant scholar said the next few sentences with a hint of self-deprecation.
Hu Kan also remembered the dark look on the face of Master Dongfangfang when he heard that Chu Xisheng was heading north to the capital a few days ago...
But even when the boss was in the worst mood, he never blamed their brothers.
He looked respectful and bowed apologetically: "This time, it is my two brothers, Meng Lang, who have troubled the owner of the hall, making you worried."
The master of Dongfangfang flicked his robe sleeves with a magnanimous expression: "I originally agreed to this matter. The incident happened suddenly. No one expected that my guardian friend came to Beijing. How can I blame you brothers? However,
, can he hold on to the top ten Shenxiu heroes, or can he defeat those three people after he enters the capital?"
Hu Kan and Hu Lai both looked solemn when they heard this.
——Tieshuo Si Huangquan, Shenyan Sword Li Xiuchang, and Mad Sword King Ming are not comparable to the so-called Qingyun Tianjiao from the southern states.
In the future, these three people will definitely be among the top thirty in the Qingyun rankings!
These three are already at the seventh level of cultivation, and each of them can sweep across four states.
The owner of Dongfangfang didn't know that these two people were worried about their friends. He chuckled: "There is no need to worry too much. The matter has reached this point and has not damaged the reputation of our Tianji Pavilion. As you said, Chu Xisheng's cultivation time is very short.
It’s less than a year old, but this kid has great potential.”
The implication is that even if Chu Xisheng loses, they can still rely on their talent and potential.
The "Ten Excellent Swordsmen of Shenxiu" arranged by Tianji Pavilion are very fair.
Isn’t the main basis for evaluating the ‘Top Ten Talents’ based on potential?
At this moment, an exclamation came from the east corner of Dongfang.
"——The flying pigeon of Helin County sent a message. The official ship Chu Xisheng was on has entered the boundary of Hezhou. At the border of Hezhou, he defeated Fei Liren, who was ranked 36th on the Qingyun List of Hezhou! This is the 28th person.
.”
"It's still a one-shot victory! This is Hezhou's thirty-sixth! It's equivalent to the top ten in other rankings."
"Interesting, in my opinion, his previous opponents have not been able to force Chu Xisheng's full strength. Do you know that there are people outside now calling him Chu Yidao? No matter what kind of opponent, he can be dealt with with one blow.
No exceptions."
"I'm really looking forward to it. Compared with Li Xiuchang of the Divine Swallow Sword, Wang Ming of the Crazy Sword, and Huang Quan of the Iron Shura Si, who will win?"
Hu Kan and Hu Lai were refreshed and looked at each other.
Chu Xisheng's entry into the capital has now become one of the hottest events in the martial arts world in Heluo!
Almost all gambling halls in the capital have betting markets on the outcome between a few people.
I don’t know how many martial arts cultivators in Heluo are waiting for the boat Chu Xisheng is riding to enter the borders of Hezhou——
The same is true in their Tianji Pavilion, where Chu Xisheng's schedule is followed from top to bottom.
"Well done!"
Master Dongfangfang's eyes narrowed, and then he looked at the Hu brothers apologetically: "This time, our Tianji Pavilion will arrange for a special person to follow Chu Xisheng's whereabouts throughout the entire process to observe his sword skills, talent and combat power.
This is supposed to be the job of you two brothers, but because Chu Xisheng is surrounded by great risks, the cabinet has arranged additional manpower, so don’t think too much about it, you brothers."
Hu Kan would definitely not think too much about it.
He knew that Chu Xisheng and the Zuo family father and son were still being watched by the young minister of Dali Temple.
What's more, many gambling halls in the capital have opened gambling games for Chu Xisheng, which also caused a huge whirlpool to form around Chu Xisheng...
The two of them are only at the ninth level of cultivation. If they get involved rashly, they may be shattered to pieces.
※※※※
At the same time, the mood of the new owner of Dongzhou Lunwu Building, Wang Chaoyang, was not so wonderful.
He looked down at the dozens of letters and charms piled on the desk, his face looking as ugly as that of an evil spirit.
——On the evening of the first day of March, Chu Xisheng defeated Bai Guangda, the 14th on the Wuzhou Qingyun Ranking, and Zhen Nian, the 12th on the Wuzhou Qingyun Ranking, in Tianling County. Neither of them were Chu Xisheng's combined enemies.
——On the morning of the second day of March, Chu Xisheng defeated Wei Ming, the eleventh member of Wuzhou Qingyun Ranking, in Shanglin County. Wei Ming was fifteen years old and had an eighth-level cultivation. Although he majored in swordsmanship, he wanted to serve Wu.
Zhou regained his face and galloped 1,200 miles through the night to catch up with the official ship Chu Xisheng was riding, but was defeated in one fell swoop.
——On the morning of the third day of March, Chu Xisheng entered the territory of Ningzhou and defeated seven Qingyun Tianjiao in a row at the border of Ningzhou. From Zhuang Lai, the twelfth on the Ningzhou Qingyun Ranking, no one could withstand Chu Xisheng's sword.
——At noon on the sixth day of March, Chu Xisheng entered Dingzhou by boat and defeated Dong Zhengyan, who was ranked thirteenth in Dingzhou Qingyun Ranking.
——On the seventh day of March, Chu Xisheng defeated Hanfeng Sword Duyuan, the ninth in Dingzhou Qingyun Ranking, with six swords.
——On the eighth day of March, Chu Xisheng defeated Long Xiaoyun, the ninth on the Qingyun Ranking, in Feizhou, also with just one sword.
This was all news delivered from the capital, but it seemed like a loud slap on his face.
In fact, Wang Chaoyang did not pay special attention to this matter.
However, the Lunwu Main Building in the capital sent this information to Wang Chaoyang four days ago by name.
Wang Chaoyang knew full well that this was the main building expressing dissatisfaction with him.
This made him feel so bad that he was not interested in official duties in the past few days.
He had only been in charge of the Dongzhou Nonwu Building for less than a month when such a big mistake happened.
"Owner!"
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and Xie Zhenqing then pushed the door open and entered.
After she entered the door, she noticed the talismans on Wang Chaoyang's table.
Xie Zhenqing raised his eyebrows, suppressed the gloating in his heart, and pretended to be calm: "Is the poster worried about Chu Xisheng? It seems that his ranking of the 29th is indeed low."
If this person listened to her words and listed Chu Xisheng in the top twenty, Dongzhou Lunwu Building would not be in such an embarrassing situation.
Wang Chaoyang had no expression on his face as he swept all these letters into the corner of the desk: "Master Xie, why are you here late at night?"
"It's about the Battle of Xishan. I already have a clue about the two half-demon masters."
Xie Zhenqing said with a solemn expression: "Judging from the descriptions of these two people by the Xishan bandits, they are most likely half-demon of the 'Red Dragon' lineage."
"Red dragon?"
Wang Chaoyang's eyes widened and he sat up from the desk: "It's the red dragon that was said thousands of years ago, 'Whoever wins the red dragon will win the world'? Is this really true?"
Thousands of years ago, the world was in chaos.
It is said that Taizu Taizu of Daning captured the red dragon and forcibly seized the red dragon's veins, thereby conquering the world.
Since the imperial court established the cauldron, they have been looking for new 'red dragons' to stabilize the dragon veins and continue the country. Over the past thousand years, they have only found three red dragons with first and second level cultivation.
Of course, these two half-demon from the red dragon lineage are not qualified to enter the tomb of Taizu...
Their blood is impure and cannot strengthen the dragon veins.
However, there is probably a powerful red dragon hiding behind these two people.
Also, what is the relationship between Xishan Tang, the Chu family brothers and sisters, and the Red Dragon lineage?
"Both of them are one foot tall, have red scales on their bodies, and are extremely powerful. There are also flame patterns on their backs."
Xie Zhenqing replied calmly: "I estimate that the possibility that these two people are half-demon of the Red Dragon lineage is more than 60%."
Wang Chaoyang couldn't help but narrowed his eyes, with a touch of excitement in his eyes: "Quickly pass this matter to Jin Yiwei and let them find a way to find out the identities of these two people!"
"I understand! I will tell Cao Xuan now."
Xie Zhenqing looked solemn: "One more thing. Recently, people outside have been talking about Chu Xisheng, saying that I am ignorant when it comes to martial arts buildings. I think it is best for us to make some preparations and make an issue for Chu Xisheng in the middle of this month.
Special issue, raise this person's ranking on the Qingyun List to calm the public opinion. It happens that civil martial arts cultivators have a lot of concerns about Chu Xisheng's entry into Beijing, so I predict that the sales of the special issue will be very good."
In fact, there are even more unpleasant things to say outside, but Xie Zhenqing just doesn’t want to say them.
Wang Chaoyang's expression turned cold: "A special issue for an eighth-grade martial artist? It's simply ridiculous. Thanks to the master, you need to be calm when doing things. How can we compile the list and follow others' opinions? People outside are talking about it.
Let them talk about it. You need to know that so far, although Chu Xisheng has won twenty-eight games in a row, he has only won some outstanding talents who may not be able to qualify for the overall rankings.
If this son escorts the Zuo family and his son to the capital, he may not be able to escape unscathed. Even if he can return safely, he still has three opponents: Iron Shura Si Huangquan, Shenyan Sword Li Xiuchang and Crazy Sword Wang Ming. Waiting for him to defend the Shenxiu Ten Heroes,
After returning safely from the capital, it won’t be too late for us to add another special issue to him.”
Xie Zhenqing smiled when he heard this.
She knew that this person was actually trying to hide his face and refused to admit his mistake.
Xie Zhenqing also believed that Chu Xisheng was most likely to lose.
But what if Chu Xisheng loses? Tianji Pavilion already has enough room for maneuver.
With Chu Xisheng's sword skills and talent, he can definitely enter the Qingyun Ranking in half a year.
However, she had already raised this opinion, but Wang Chaoyang refused to listen. That was Wang Chaoyang's business.
The people above are to blame, and the responsibility does not lie with her.
So Xie Zhenqing didn't make any argument. She simply cupped her hands and walked out of the official room.
Wang Chaoyang sat on the spot, lost in thought.
After a while, he smiled and began to sort out the talismans.
Chu Xisheng's sword skills were indeed very strong, far beyond his expectations.
But can this son still defeat those three super geniuses, sweep across Heluo, and overwhelm the capital?
absurd!
