Li Muchan woke up leisurely and looked around. He was sitting on the ground. A bright moon hung high in the sky, quietly casting a clear light, like a veil covering his body.

One foot away in front of her, Yi Xiaoru was sitting on a futon, closing her eyes and regulating her breath. Her face was like jade, emitting a layer of soft light.

Li Muchan coughed lightly, and Yi Xiaoru opened her eyes: "Brother!"

Li Muchan smiled, and Yi Xiaoru hurriedly said: "But you are injured?"

Li Muchan shook his head and said with a smile: "It's getting late. Have you had dinner?"

"No, everyone is waiting for you, let's go!" Yi Xiaoru stood up and left the futon. Li Muchan also stood up and said with a smile: "You just eat first!"

Yi Xiaoru smiled and said: "Master insists on waiting for you!... In this battle, big brother, no one will dare to cause trouble again, once and for all!"

Li Muchan smiled and shook his head: "You're very lucky!"

"We didn't expect you to defeat Master Yin!" Yi Xiaoru couldn't hide her smile.

Li Muchan sighed, shook his head and said, "Actually, it was a fluke this time. It won't be that easy if we do it again!"

"Master Yin will never do anything again!" Yi Xiaoru shook his head and smiled: "He is a very proud person!"

Li Muchan laughed and shook his head.

Yi Xiaoru said: "If you hadn't crippled Senior Brother Yin this time and really made him anxious, you would never have done anything to a junior!"

Li Muchan smiled and the two of them entered the hall.

Three women were sitting in the hall. Gao Jingxuan was lying on a low couch, reading a book. Cheng Lian and Zhu Chuyun were playing chess and a fierce battle was going on. It seemed that they did not hear their footsteps.

Gao Jingxuan put down the book and didn't say anything. Instead, he looked at Li Muchan carefully and nodded lightly: "It seems nothing serious! Lian'er. Yun'er, it's time to eat!"

"Brother-in-law, it doesn't matter to you, right?" Zhu Chuyun raised his head and smiled sweetly.

Li Muchan smiled and said, "Senior Sister, I'm worried, I'm fine, I just lost my strength!"

"You can beat Master Yin, I'm really impressed!" Zhu Chuyun praised: "We are still sweating it, in case you are really defeated, we will fight together!"

Li Muchan smiled and shook his head. Cheng Lian smiled and said: "It's useless for us to work together. Master Yin can take care of us with one move! ... I think brother-in-law, you seem to have used a secret technique. Doesn't it really matter?"

Li Muchan smiled and said, "It's not a serious problem. It only takes a few days to practice."

"That's good." Gao Jingxuan said in high spirits: "Xiaoru, let's serve it!"

"Okay!" Yi Xiaoru responded and went out briskly, followed by Cheng Lian and Zhu Chuyun. The three women quickly brought the dishes to the table, the aroma was fragrant.

————

Gao Jingxuan sat behind the main seat. He patted the seat on the left: "Dao'er, come and sit!"

Li Muchan was startled, then smiled bitterly and said, "Master, it's good for me to sit here!"

He was sitting in the last seat. Next to Yi Xiaoru, next to Gao Jingxuan were Cheng Lian and Zhu Chuyun. In fact, there were only five of them, but there was still a difference in seating.

"You are a man. Come and sit down!" Gao Jingxuan said solemnly: "Don't be useless and get tired of being around your wife!"

Yi Xiaoru said lightly: "Master——!"

Gao Jingxuan said: "Come here quickly!"

After hearing what she said, Li Muchan could only go over. Zhu Chuyun pursed his lips and smiled and said: "I should give way. Master, you are patriarchal!"

Gao Jingxuan snorted and said angrily: "If you can beat your Master Yin, I will let you take over my position!"

"I can't do it!" Zhu Chuyun chuckled and said, "Brother-in-law, your swordsmanship is really amazing!"

They had a deeper understanding of Li Muchan's swordsmanship. It was truly unpredictable and extremely powerful, which made people despair.

Li Muchan smiled and said: "Actually, it's not swordsmanship, it's just a feeling. I've told others, but no one dares to practice like this."

Zhu Chuyun nodded hurriedly: "I know your sword training method, but I can only say that you are destined to be lucky, and we can't do it! ... Senior sister, do you dare to try it?"

Cheng Lian smiled and shook his head.

Gao Jingxuan said: "Everyone has their own most suitable martial arts. Some people can find it, and some people are unlucky and can't find it. Dao'er just found his own way... Okay, after today, you are also considered

Now that you have a firm foothold, you don’t need to be afraid of others!”

Li Muchan smiled and nodded: "Yes, let's get started!"

"Come, eat!" Gao Jingxuan picked up the bamboo chopsticks and everyone started eating.

Li Muchan took a few bites to cushion his stomach, then turned to look at Gao Jingxuan: "Master, what's going on in the competition?"

Gao Jingxuan picked out a chopstick of freshly fried bamboo shoots and said casually: "Oh, the Nine Sects Competition, which happens every five years, is about to start!"

Li Muchan said: "What's the point of this competition?"

Gao Jingxuan pondered for a moment, swallowed, and put down the bamboo chopsticks: "To say that this competition is indeed of great importance, it is a test of the strength of the nine sects."

"Is it just about face?" Li Muchan asked.

Gao Jingxuan said: "After the competition, the top ten can enter Fuyun Mountain."

When Li Muchan heard about Fuyun Mountain, he immediately paid attention. There were no similarities between Fuyun Mountain and Fuyun Palace.

"Where is Fuyun Mountain?" Li Muchan asked.

Gao Jingxuan said: "Fuyun Mountain is a mountain range that is shrouded in fog all year round. Once you enter, you often get lost and cannot find your direction."

"Master, just say it in one breath, I see my brother-in-law is anxious!" Zhu Chuyun pursed his lips and smiled: "How about I do it?"

She didn't wait for Gao Jingxuan to speak, and said directly: "Brother-in-law, this Fuyun Mountain is a good place. Although it is very foggy inside, there are often surprises waiting for you. Some people go in and get the secret book, some people get the sword, and some people get the secret book.

Got the sword!"

Li Muchan frowned: "Only these two?"

"Oh, these two are not enough!" Zhu Chuyun pursed his lips and smiled: "Brother-in-law, you have a big appetite!"

————

Li Muchan shook his head and said, "How big is Fuyun Mountain?"

Zhu Chuyun shook his head: "No one knows how big it is or how far away it is. We only know that everyone can only stay for an hour. After an hour, they will come out. No matter how they walk...or even if they don't walk, they will come out. It's very weird. Very

eccentric!"

Li Muchan was silent and thoughtful.

This Fuyun Mountain could be equipped with formations. Everything she said was really similar to the formations. Although the spiritual energy in this world is thin and it is difficult for formations to exist, there are always exceptions after all.

"For so many years, no one knows how far, how high, or how big Fuyun Mountain is. They only know that it can be entered once every five years." Zhu Chuyun said.

Li Muchan said: "Besides secrets and weapons, is there anything else?"

"No more." Zhu Chuyun shook his head and said: "There are only secrets and weapons. But don't think that these are easy to get. Once every five years, only ten people can enter, but they often come back empty-handed. Master, it was many years ago when we last produced something.

Come forward?"

"It happened once ten years ago." Gao Jingxuan said.

Li Muchan frowned and said, "This is just luck."

"Yes, Master, how many secret books have you obtained in total?" Zhu Chuyun asked.

Gao Jingxuan thought for a moment and said: "I got three secret books in total. They are all about extraordinary martial arts, including our mental skills!"

"Hey, brother-in-law, you don't know, right?" Zhu Chuyun said excitedly: "Master also got a secret book!"

Li Muchan looked at Gao Jingxuan in surprise.

Gao Jingxuan hummed: "Master was also young, and he also entered the top ten in the competition. So he was lucky enough to enter Fuyun Mountain, and he was also lucky enough to get a secret book. It is the Heaven-Human Sympathy Technique that they are practicing now."

Li Muchan praised: "The art of communication between heaven and man is truly wonderful!"

Yi Xiaoru pursed her lips and smiled and said: "If it weren't for this, I wouldn't have been able to find you!...Brother, if you participate in the competition this time, you will definitely be in the top ten and enter Fuyun Mountain."

Li Muchan smiled bitterly and shook his head: "I've always had bad luck, so don't count on it!"

"This is indeed God's will." Gao Jingxuan nodded and said: "Among the ten people, the one with the strongest martial arts often doesn't get the secret book, the weakest one has little chance, and the one in the middle has a better chance!... At the beginning, Senior Brother Tang had the highest martial arts skill.

But I found nothing, and everyone only has one chance. Once you enter, you will never be able to get in again!"

————

"Ah——!" Zhu Chuyun shouted and lamented: "Doesn't that mean that my brother-in-law has no hope at all?"

"Well, it's indispensable." Gao Jingxuan nodded lightly.

The reason why she was so calm and didn't care too much was because of this. With Li Muchan's current martial arts skills, he would definitely win the competition and enter Fuyun Mountain. That would be the role of accompanying the prince to study, so there was no hope.

Entering Fuyun Mountain is just to try your luck and see if you can get secrets and swords. Otherwise, why go into a place like that, where you will get confused and easily run into danger.

Yi Xiaoru said: "That's not necessarily true. Maybe there are exceptions, right?"

Cheng Lian pursed his lips and smiled and said: "In the eyes of my little junior sister, my brother-in-law is naturally unique...Master, I think my brother-in-law is a lucky one, and maybe he has hope."

"I hope so." Gao Jingxuan smiled lightly.

Li Muchan smiled and said: "I don't ask for secrets, as long as I have a sword."

"That's true!" Zhu Chuyun said: "No matter how good the secret is, it can't compare with my brother-in-law's swordsmanship. It's a pity that your sword is broken. If you change it to a sword, it will be even more powerful. Who can beat my brother-in-law!?"

She turned around and giggled: "Master, we can also walk sideways. With my brother-in-law here, who dares to disobey!"
