Holding a heavy lotus bud in his hand, if he had been there half a quarter of an hour ago, he would have turned it over and over to appreciate it, but now he had no leisure and ambition, and would blow the flowers as soon as he lowered his head.

This is also a must-do action for contestants. After finding the Overlord Lotus and blowing it open, the entire Lotus Fragrance Festival can continue.

Only then can the Overlord Lotus be cut.

The sneak attacker was of course Fan Sheng.

He also saw Jia Yu's movements, but the bet was made between Zhongsun Mou and He Lingchuan, and it had nothing to do with him who won or lost. He had only one goal:

Kill He Lingchuan.

So Jia Yu lowered his head calmly and blew a breath into the lotus bud.

As the lotus buds gain popularity, they slowly bloom at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The blood-red lotus petals, the stripes of red gold, and the green-and-gold lotus platform all appeared one by one.

The entire lotus flower is more than three feet in diameter, larger than a washbasin.

Calling it the Overlord Lotus is truly worthy of its name.

The golden light flashed across the surface of the lotus, and then it shot straight into the sky!

Even on a cloudy day, this golden light is particularly conspicuous.

The eager spectators at the Chaohu Tower immediately pointed at the golden beam of light and shouted:

"Light up, light up, found it!"

The crowd exploded with roar:

"It only took three quarters of an hour this time. It was too fast."

"It's unreasonable to go so fast. Could someone be cheating?"

"I wonder which team comes out on top?"

There was also a troublesome guy who slapped his forehead: "Who loses and who wins that big bet? I hope the Cen Mansion wins!"

"They won't give you a copper even if they win!"

"But I can win money today."

While everyone was arguing, the golden beam of light suddenly dispersed.

This is another strange thing that has aroused everyone's different opinions. You must know that the beam of light in previous years will last at least as long as a cup of tea before it disappears.

Fortunately, the following process has not changed:

The more than 100,000 lotus buds in the maze seemed to have received the order and burst into smiles at the same time.

Even in the weir under the Chaohu Tower, more than a hundred water lilies bloomed immediately.

Such a wonder, even if it can be experienced once a year, will still win thunderous applause.

"The lotus is blooming!" In the white sandy summer, the lotus flowers in the city will not bloom until this moment.

The best season for lotus appreciation starts today and lasts for about forty days. During this period, new lotus buds will continue to grow, but they are not restricted by the lotus.

At this time, Magistrate Tian was smiling and said to the distinguished guests on the tower: "The lotus has bloomed. Please come down below to observe the ceremony."

The Lotus Fragrance Festival was about to begin at this time, and the venue under the tower had already been decorated, waiting for the distinguished guests to take their seats.

Everyone then moved down the tower.

As for the bets placed by the Crown Prince's special envoy and the Lingxu City inspector, they are still placed on the table and are under the supervision of dedicated personnel.

No one knew that the overlord lotus in the Lotus Palace snapped off itself before anyone could cut it.

Jia Yu held the lotus in his hand and didn't know what to do for a while.

Bawang Lian was obtained, but the ship was hacked and the prince's envoy was hunted down.

How to get back here?

Another boat came from the opposite side, and on the boat were the guards of the Cen Mansion.

Just now they followed He Lingchuan all the way, Fan Sheng dived into the water, and the guards were waiting on the boat to respond.

As soon as he saw what Jia Yu had in his hand, he immediately pushed his boat over and planned to grab it by force.

…

After He Lingchuan pounced on the boat, he rolled into the water the next second without forgetting to throw something.

The posture is like crocodile diving, unsightly but very fast and practical.

Water is the best cover, and any attack will be stripped of more than one layer of power.

He had already tested that the average water depth in the Lotus Palace was about five feet, and the northeast corner where they entered was a little deeper, six feet. Only lotus flowers blessed by the Lotus Demon can grow into the giant size they are now.

The water depth of more than six feet can still reach a large height above the water surface.

This depth is deeper than the average lotus pond, enough for him to flop around.

He Lingchuan dare not say that he is a white stripe in the waves, but he has no problem chasing fish in muddy water.

Which lotus pond has mud at the bottom? Even though the Lotus Palace is large, it is not exempt from vulgarity.

When he entered the water, he first muddied the bottom of the water.

The sand was turned up, and Fan Sheng could no longer see him on the water.

But at this moment, dozens of palm-sized shadows suddenly rushed out of the surrounding water, biting his whole body, and specially attacked the key parts.

These things have the body of a pomfret, but the underside of the fins and belly are blood red. When they don't open their mouths, they have kind eyes. When their mouths are open, they are full of sharp teeth and sharp teeth, which are sharper than razors.

The frequency of their attacks is frighteningly fast. They can rush in five times in one second, which means they bite a person five times. Each time, they swing their tail fins wildly from side to side in the hope of tearing off a larger piece of flesh.

This kind of piranha is easy to deal with alone, but if dozens of them come together, it is simply a nightmare for those who fall into the water.

Fortunately, He Lingchuan's body glowed with a faint green light.

The soul-capturing mirror's protective power is automatically activated, and the damage caused through it is less than 10%.

But it also shouted at the same time: "Hey, think of a way, I can't hold on for long, these things are very fierce!"

Even 10% of the damage was very painful. He Lingchuan couldn't help but scold it: "What's the use of you."

With the orb in his mouth, he can breathe underwater and curse people.

Of course, he knew very well that the protective barrier of the mirror was already very good, and it even blocked Uncle Da's full output in the ruins of Thousand Stars City. It is now intimidated very quickly, just because the collective attack ability of these piranhas is too strong.

These things were either little monsters or summoned objects, and 90% of them were released by Fan Sheng. Because before the start of the game, Mizuze had ordered the fish to leave.

He Lingchuan cursed crazily in his heart and swam faster at the same time.

A group of piranhas are in hot pursuit and attack crazily.

"Quick, quick, think of a way!" Mirror kept urging him, "Ouch! It hurts!"

The piranha first had to break through the mirror's protection before it could inflict serious damage to He Lingchuan. The ants would bite the elephant to death, and the mirror couldn't stand this quick bite with the bonus of elemental power.

Although He Lingchuan swam very fast, before he could swim more than two feet, a warning sign suddenly appeared in his heart.

The Fusheng Sword has become one with him. This is the sword warning him that the danger comes from——

Above!

…

Under the Chaohu Tower, the dignitaries had already walked to the sandbank by the lake.

The lotus-picking boat will not return so soon, and the ceremony of the Lotus Fragrance Festival must be carried out first.

The sand here is naturally fine and white and does not require manual preparation. The sandbar is flat and open, and the scenery of Chaohu Lake is unobstructed. In the past ten years, the Lotus Fragrance Festival has been held here in seven years.

This year is no exception.

The water weir in the background is now full of lotus flowers. A large pavilion has been built on the side of the sandbank, which is usually used for tourists to rest and enjoy the scenery. Now it is the seat for the guests.

The civilians and merchants were standing at the back, and it was so crowded.

Magistrate Tian rang the bell to attract the attention of the audience, and then he put on a smile and made a few opening remarks.

These are three old articles, and he can recite them by heart without any speech script.

Next, Zhongsun Moushi Shiran came on stage to deliver a speech.

The audience applauded warmly.

The surrounding officials and the atmosphere group mixed in the crowd drummed very enthusiastically, which can bring everyone together.

Although Zhongsun Mou has been worried recently, he doesn't want to miss this scene.

His articles are also full of flowers, and they sound unique in the fragrance of flowers.

When the shark's voice spread across the sandbank, a child stood behind the pavilion and suddenly tugged on the corner of his mother's clothes: "Look over there."

My mother was squinting her eyes slightly to listen to the four or six parallel prose in front of her, and she was still a little drowsy.

She ignored her and the child kept talking.

"What?"
