Even Fang Feicheng felt a little dissatisfied with Qin Yun's polite refusal again.
If the twelve princes of the Yan Dynasty were compared to the twelve stars, then Yan Lingyun would definitely be one of the brightest stars among them. His reputation for being young, handsome, and talented had even spread thousands of miles overseas.
He joined the Tiancheng Sword Sect at the age of fifteen and was promoted to the innate realm at the age of twenty-one. When Wu Cheng came out of the mountain, he was already a strong man in the seventh innate realm. His swordsmanship and swordsmanship reached the realm of sword mastery. In addition, Wen Tao and Wu
With no shortcomings, he is regarded by countless people as a strong contender for the throne.
Although Yan Lingyun was in a difficult situation after returning to Yanjing due to overt and covert suppression and exclusion by other princes, no one doubted that he had the opportunity and strength to soar.
If he can join Yan Lingyun at this time, Chapter 353 Yan Chaozong! Once he ascends the throne, his followers will surely be able to ascend to heaven and honor their ancestors. The elders who expelled Qin Yun from the Qin family will probably cry and shout
Then ask him to go back.
Therefore, Fang Feicheng cannot understand Qin Yun's rejection. With Yan Lingyun's support, his growth path in the Sword Sect will become smoother and brighter.
From this point of view, Fang Feicheng's understanding was limited. He was born in the Fang clan and had been instilled in him the concept of loyalty to Dayan and the royal family since he was a child. Therefore, it was natural for him to surrender to Yan Lingyun.
However, Qin Yun was born into a poor family and suffered from the hatred of his parents, so he was destined to be unable to join the Yan royal family.
The most important thing is that what Qin Yun yearns for is not glory and wealth. He studies hard and goes through life and death, and ultimately pursues the supreme road. Jian Ao Jiutian lives up to his life, how can he fight for power in the world of mortals?
However, compared to Fang Feicheng's regret and dissatisfaction, Yan Lingyun was much more free and easy-going. He did not forcefully recruit Qin Yun, but changed the subject and continued chatting with Qin Yun. This magnanimity alone was enough to make people feel heartbroken.
Therefore, although Qin Yun has no intention of working for Yan Lingyun, he is very willing to become friends with him.
The three of them sat and talked for two hours in a private room on the sixth floor of Zhenhai Building, and then they left together after they had exhausted their enjoyment.
Returning to Chapter 353: Yan Chaozong! In the lobby on the first floor, Yan Lingyun said without finishing his words: "Junior brother, the day after tomorrow we will go hunting together in the forest garden on Manglong Mountain. I heard that your archery skills are excellent.
!”
Qin Yun was about to speak when a loud voice suddenly came from beside him: "Hahaha, Lao Qi, why are you here? What a coincidence today!"
Hearing this rather arrogant voice, Yan Lingyun's face suddenly changed.
He turned around slowly, smiled at the visitor and said, "It turns out to be the third brother!"
I saw a large group of people coming in from the door of Zhenhai Tower. The one in the middle, surrounded by stars and the moon, was a slender man in brocade robes.
His appearance is quite handsome, with a pale face and thin lips, a pair of slender eyes with dim light, and a red blood mole between his eyebrows, which adds a bit of enchantment to him.
The guards behind the men in brocade robes were all very imposing. Although they were all dressed in plain clothes, their fierce aura could not be concealed. They were obviously elite men who had experienced hundreds of battles, and among them there were several swordsmen with unpredictable strength.
Qin Yun suddenly felt a little more vigilant in his heart.
From Yan Lingyun's title, we can tell that the other party should be the third prince Yan Chaozong. Although he has just entered the capital, he has been with Fang Feicheng all the way and has some understanding of the situation of the Yan royal family.
Yan Chaozong was the second son and legitimate son of Emperor Longwu. His mother was Emperor Longwu's first wife. He was deeply favored by Emperor Longwu since he was a child. He was once considered the best candidate for the crown prince and was entrusted with the rich Haidong Territory.
It can be seen from the conversation between the two that these two are definitely not harmonious brothers.
Yan Chaozong stood grandly at the door of the hall, blocking the way of Yan Lingyun and Qin Yun. He chuckled and said: "Seventh brother, I was really sorry last time. My men didn't attack you seriously and hurt your love."
Jiang, aren’t you still blaming me?”
He said he was sorry, but instead of showing the slightest look of apology, there was an indescribable sense of pride and arrogance on his face, and his eyes were full of disdain and ridicule.
If someone who didn't know the inside story saw it, they would never believe that the two were actually brothers, more like enemies!
Yan Lingyun said coldly: "How dare I blame the third brother? If I want to blame, I can only blame the incompetence of my subordinates!"
His eyes were cold, and his right hand was tightly clenched into a fist, showing the overwhelming anger in his heart.
There is no doubt that Yan Chaozong's ridicule stung him.
Qin Yun keenly noticed that two sword cultivators behind Yan Chaozong quietly took half a step forward, stared at Yan Lingyun with cold eyes, and put their hands on the hilts of their swords.
They put on a fighting stance, no doubt preparing for Yan Lingyun to suddenly threaten Yan Chaozong.
In terms of power and favor in front of Emperor Longwu, Yan Chaozong would definitely surpass Yan Lingyun, but in terms of personal strength and combat power, the former was far from Yan Lingyun who had returned from the Tiancheng Sword Sect.
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became extremely tense, and the surrounding guests who wanted to watch the fun quietly retreated to the corner. Some of them had already recognized the origins of the two people, and how could they dare to get involved in the internal fighting among the royal family.
Qin Yun quietly took a step forward and happened to be shoulder to shoulder with Yan Lingyun.
His expression was very calm, and he was not in a fighting posture, but his whole person was like a sharp blade that was suddenly unsheathed, with indescribable sharpness and fighting spirit, and then attacked the two sword cultivators behind Yan Chaozong.
deterrence.
In terms of realm strength, Qin Yun may still be a step behind his opponent, but the confidence and momentum he has forged through countless battles are not something that just anyone can possess.
The corners of the eyes of the two sword cultivators twitched, and the stern look in their eyes became more intense.
"Huh?"
Yan Chaozong didn't seem to notice the tense confrontation between the two sides at all. His eyes fell on Qin Yun and showed a malicious smile: "Who is this? Is it your newly recruited subordinates? I don't know who is better than you.
What about that waste, don’t spoil it all at once, that would be so boring, hahahaha!”
He threw his head back and laughed wildly, completely unscrupulously arrogant and domineering.
Yan Lingyun clenched the fists of both hands at the same time, as if she couldn't help but take action.
At this moment, Fang Feicheng suddenly took a step forward, came to his side and reminded him in a low voice: "Your Highness..."
The angry flames dancing in Yan Lingyun's eyes were suddenly extinguished. He let go of his hands and said with a faint smile: "This is my fellow junior, not my subordinate. I let Third Brother down."
"Junior brother from the same sect?" Yan Chaozong's lips traced a touch of sarcasm, and he sneered at Qin Yun: "Tiancheng Sword Sect is really famous. I wonder if this junior brother can point out my incompetent subordinates?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the auras of two sword cultivators in white locked Qin Yun firmly at the same time.
Qin Yun raised his eyebrows, anger welling up in his heart.
Yan Chaozong's intention to provoke the generals to challenge could not be more obvious. His words were undoubtedly aimed at Yan Lingyun, but the reputation of the Tiancheng Sword Sect was at stake. If Qin Yun backed down in fear of the battle, it would definitely be a discredit to the sect!
"If Your Highness is interested, I can also give you some advice!"
How could Qin Yun show weakness at this time and launched a tit-for-tat counterattack without hesitation.
Do you want to play? Then come on your own!
Yan Chaozong's pupils suddenly shrank, staring at Qin Yun like a poisonous snake staring at its prey, he said with a smile: "Jianzong disciples are indeed very brave, I have seen this!"
He ignored Qin Yun again, turned to look at Yan Lingyun and said: "Seventh brother, the day after tomorrow we go to Linyuan for hunting. We brothers haven't been close to each other for a long time, how about we go and have fun together?"
Yan Lingyun smiled lightly and said: "Since it is the third brother who invited me, I should obey my orders!"
"Hahaha!" Yan Chaozong laughed, nodded and said, "Okay! I'll see you the day after tomorrow. Remember to bring your fellow disciple with you. I want to see how he gives me advice!"
After finishing speaking, Yan Chaozong strode towards the stairs.
The accompanying people followed closely, and they were all gone in the blink of an eye.
Yan Lingyun left Zhenhai Tower with Qin Yun and returned to the carriage, his expression was still solemn.
When the carriage started to move forward, Yan Lingyun suddenly said: "Junior brother, I am the one who has caused trouble for you this time. You should not go to Shanglinyuan the day after tomorrow!"
Qin Yun was stunned for a moment, and Fang Feicheng explained: "Yan Chaozong is narrow-minded and extremely vindictive. You have offended him just now. When the time comes, he will definitely send powerful subordinates to challenge you. You are new to Yanjing, so there is no need to follow him.
He got into a fight!"
Qin Yun said slowly: "When have we, the disciples of the Sword Sect, ever been afraid of challenges from others? If I avoid fighting, wouldn't it be a disgrace to the sect's reputation?"
Yan Lingyun and Fang Feicheng looked at each other, and the latter smiled bitterly and said: "Junior brother, you don't know something. Yan Chaozong has recently recruited a group of young swordsmen from Xiaoyingzhou. One of them is a swordsman named Iga Feng.
, he has challenged twenty-seven times and never failed, and he will definitely send Iga Kaede out when the time comes!"
Yan Lingyun said: "Half a month ago, my three guarding warriors were defeated by Iga Feng's sword. All of them had their hand tendons broken and penetrated the air sea. The Iga clan is one of the four major sword sects in Xiaoyingzhou.
The sword's deflection is so fast and sharp that even if I were to fight in person, I dare not say that I could defeat Iga Kaede."
His expression was full of grief and anger: "Iga Kaede is not only excellent in swordsmanship, but also proficient in the secret techniques of evil ninja, and his temperament is cruel and bloodthirsty. My three guards have been with me since childhood..."
The Prince of Dayan's eyes were red, and he couldn't help clenching his fists. His knuckles cracked because he used too much force. He was obviously extremely angry inside, otherwise he would never have lost his composure like this.
"Junior brother, although you are very powerful, you have never seen Iga Kenryu and the secret technique of evil ninja. Once you accept Iga Kaede's challenge, you will probably suffer a big loss. A man can bend and stretch, so you should not go hunting in the forest!"
Qin Yun fell silent, and countless thoughts flashed through his mind.!!!
