It seems very surprising that Zhuge Qingfeng is trying his best to push out what everyone dreams of.
The man in the long robe didn't seem surprised at all.
After Zhuge Qingfeng refused, he had no intention of continuing the topic. Instead, he smiled lightly.
"You are already emotionally moved, Zhuge Qingfeng, maybe you should hand over that thing."
Amid laughter, the man suddenly spoke, his head raised slightly, and his eyes lit up like two cold stars inside the hood that seemed to be covered in black mist.
"That thing was given to me by my master back then, but I can never give it to you. Moreover, my mission has not failed. The order given by the empire was just to hide it, but it did not ask me to do anything."
Zhuge Qingfeng spoke expressionlessly. When he spoke, one of his hands on his thigh was firmly holding the hem of his clothes. If you look carefully, you can find that the place where the hem of the clothes and his palm meet is slightly moist. Zhuge Qingfeng
The sweat from his nervous palms soaked the hem of the shirt he was holding.
"There is no failure. When the master was about to die, he responded to the empire's call and sent us to lurk in the Wolong Empire. In these years, none of the brothers has ever set foot among the dignitaries of the Wolong Empire. But you are the only one who, as the senior brother, has done nothing. It even seems that
I have true feelings for the woman I married to hide my identity from the Wolong Empire, Zhuge Qingfeng, do you dare to say that you deserve to have the master's token?"
The man in the robe slapped his hand on the table and stood up angrily. His two cold star-like eyes flashed with intense murderous intent. The man's robe did not move in the wind.
"Yuchi Changde, do you want to fight me?"
When the man in the robe talked about the woman he married to hide his identity, Zhuge Qingfeng's teeth suddenly clenched. His brows tightened slightly, and the hand holding the hem of his shirt suddenly pressed on the table and stood up. He spoke slowly and lowly.
"You are senior brother, why would you fight with me? I just hope that senior brother will not forget his identity and the expectations of his master."
The man in the robe stared fixedly at Zhuge Qingfeng's hands on the table, but he spoke with a touch of ridicule. As he spoke, he slowly walked outside.
"I will find a way to help Qingyuan Town get ten more places for this year's Qingyuan Gathering. Whether senior brother wants to seize this opportunity is his own business, but I will not force it."
As the words fell, the man in the robe had walked out of the gate of Zhuge Mansion. In the past, Qingyuan Town could have about five places, but this year among all the young masters participating in the Qingyuan gathering, there are no more than 10 young masters who are sure to win Zhuge Qingfeng's children.
Three people, if there are ten more places, all the children of Zhuge Qingfeng will be able to participate in the reference of major martial arts schools.
Zhuge Qingfeng knows his children better than anyone else. As long as he obtains the reference qualification, his children will definitely leave Qingyuan Town. No matter how much he objects, it will be useless. However, once these children leave Qingyuan Town and Tuyuan Kingdom,
But they will definitely come into contact with them, which Zhuge Qingfeng cannot stop.
Standing there blankly for a long time, Zhuge Qingfeng didn't know what he was thinking, but his body started to tremble slightly.
It wasn't until the man had walked for a long time that Zhuge Qingfeng retracted his hands tremblingly. He hunched over and walked toward the backyard of Zhuge Mansion as if he were dozens of years older. When Zhuge Qingfeng let go of his hand, the one he had pressed was
Two palm holes appeared out of thin air on the table, and there was a slight trace of burnt marks on the edges of the palm holes, as if the plastic table had been stamped with two palm-shaped red-hot soldering irons.
In the backyard, Zhuge Qingfeng stopped in front of a tomb on the left side of the courtyard where he lived. This tomb was the tomb of Zhuge Qingfeng's wife and the mother of Zhuge's brothers and sisters.
Zhuge Qingfeng slowly sat down against the tomb, and a feeling of fatigue surged into Zhuge Qingfeng's cheeks. He slowly leaned against the stone tablet of the tomb, and two lines of turbid tears had already fallen down.
An undercover agent shouldn't have feelings of his own, but Zhuge Qingfeng is a very emotional person. He cannot let go of his love for his wife, friendship with Liu Qingyuan, or affection for his children.
When Zhuge Qingfeng followed his brothers into the Wolong Empire, it was to implement Tuyuan Kingdom's latent plan. Originally, according to Zhuge Qingfeng's strength, this plan was not difficult for Zhuge Qingfeng. Unfortunately, Zhuge Qingfeng was moved.
, so he concealed his martial arts and stayed in the Wolong Empire as an ordinary person.
If he hadn't met Liu Qingyuan later and accompanied Liu Qingyuan into the secret realm of Dongling by chance, Zhuge Qingfeng would still be playing the role of a middle-aged man who doesn't know the slightest martial arts. However, even so, Zhuge Qingfeng has only taught him in the past twenty years.
His children acquired the Qingfeng Sword Technique from the Dongling Secret Realm, but they never imparted any martial arts from their master.
Similarly, although Qingfeng Sword Sect was founded by Qingfeng Sword Technique in recent years and became a small local martial arts sect, Zhuge Qingfeng never let his children perform so well. That year, Zhuge Mingguang, the son of Liu Piaopiao, was
Although Zhuge Qingfeng could not blame Liu Piaopiao for Qin's loss of martial arts talent, it was certainly because of Liu Qingyuan's relationship, but it was not because he did not want his children to achieve great achievements in martial arts.
It is Zhuge Qingfeng's fantasy not to teach superb martial arts, but to let his children become martial arts practitioners of local martial arts sects, dreaming of living in peace and stability until old age. Unfortunately, Zhuge Qingfeng should have understood it from the beginning.
Some things cannot be avoided after all.
However, even if he couldn't escape, Zhuge Qingfeng was determined not to let his children get caught in this damn secret war between countries.
"Even if it costs me my life, I will protect our children and never let them participate in this dirty secret war between countries. I will definitely, definitely."
Leaning against the stone tablet, Zhuge Qingfeng's voice was extremely soft, as if he was whispering to the person in his ear, yet extremely firm.
The annual martial arts academy entrance examination is a major event in the empire. In this world where martial arts is respected, force directly determines the rise and fall of an empire. The martial arts academy examination is to select future martial arts talents for the empire. Generals may appear among these people.
, marshal, king of soldiers, etc.
There are a total of five test points on the side of the empire's border located in Qingyuan Town. In addition to Qingyuan Town, there are four major cities. These four cities and Qingyuan Town are the corners of each other and together form the defense line of this side of the empire's border. Therefore, the martial arts academy exams over the years
These five places all started discussions, because the quotas given by the empire's major martial arts academies are a total number, and ultimately these five places need to allocate themselves.
Excluding Qingyuan Town, these five places are the North and South Canyon City, Tama City, and Wanbao City in the north. It is said that the North and South Canyons of these cities were once fortresses that protected the southern peoples from being exterminated by the grassland when the grassland peoples were strong.
Wanbao City and Tama City were once the only cities that could trade with the northern peoples, and they once enjoyed great reputations. However, later, the Wolong Empire and the Tuyuan Kingdom joined forces in the Northern Expedition and defeated the grassland coalition forces in one fell swoop, forcing the grassland peoples to migrate north for several years.
Thousands of kilometers later, this place became the territory of the Wolong Empire, and it was also the border with the Tuyuan Kingdom, which expanded its territory beyond the pass.
Zhuge Qingfeng's eyes flashed when he found Yuchi Changde who was accompanied by Du Ziqin, the leader of the Longyin Valley in the North and South Canyon, Jian Yuanshang of the Iron Knife Sect, Jin Wuyou, the leader of the Hundred Beasts Sect of Wanbao City, and Jiang Hongrui, the leader of the Tama City Feixu Sect.
A touch of determination.
In the front hall of Zhuge Mansion, everyone sat down in order. Zhuge Qingfeng looked at the few people who came hand in hand. He had made up his mind two days ago, even if he handed over all the places in Qingyuan Town, even if
He could no longer stay in Qingyuan Town. Even if the latent mission failed, he would never let his children participate in this dirty secret war between countries.
"This matter about the quotas for the major martial arts examinations in the empire..."
Seeing everyone sitting down, Zhuge Qingfeng wanted to say that he would give up all the reference places, but before he could say anything, Yuchi Changde had already spoken first.
"The Imperial Martial Arts Examination is related to the future of the Empire. I hope everyone will consider it carefully and not do anything stupid."
Yuchi Changde spoke calmly. This sentence seemed to be just an official statement that an imperial military attache would say. However, when Zhuge Qingfeng heard this, he suddenly felt worried. He vaguely felt that Yuchi Changde's words seemed different.
Something pointed out.
However, worries are worries, but Zhuge Qingfeng's decision will not change. After Yuchi Changde finished speaking, he slowly glanced around at the sect representatives from the four major cities sitting there and spoke calmly.
"I don't want any of the martial arts reference quotas in Qingyuan Town this year. I'll give them all away."
It was a very indifferent sentence, but it was also an extremely shocking sentence. After saying it, Zhuge Qingfeng looked at the representatives of the four major city sects present without blinking. However, beyond his expectation, he said this
But these people didn't show any surprise at all.
That feeling of worry surfaced again, and Zhuge Qingfeng felt vaguely that he seemed to have fallen into Yuchi Changde's trick.
"Brother Zhuge, words have to go through the brain. Why can't I understand what you are saying?"
Jian Yuanshang, who came from North Canyon City, spoke coldly. As he spoke, he looked at Zhuge Qingfeng with cold eyes.
"Are you saying that the disciples in our four major cities are all useless and are not qualified to compete with you in Qingyuan Town for a spot?"
Following Jian Yuanshang's words, several other sect representatives also looked at Zhuge Qingfeng with cold eyes. The latter looked at Yuchi Changde, but he only saw Yuchi Changde pick up the teacup next to him and take a leisurely sip.
Zhuge Qingfeng's heart slowly sank. He didn't know what Yuchi Changde had said to the representatives of these four sects before, but it was obvious that the representatives of the four sects had something wrong with his words.
For the sake of his children, Zhuge Qingfeng was just about to soften things up a bit when the door of Zhuge Mansion was suddenly pushed open, and Ziqin and others appeared at the door.
