When the two were staying in the Yingbin Pavilion, the news that Qin Yun, a disciple of Tiancheng Sword Sect, would go to Tianlu Wenjian to challenge the Nine Alliances tomorrow, spread quickly throughout Langya City, including the North Lake Sword Sect, as if it had grown wings.
.
Since the Beihu Sword Sect was founded on Langya Island, there have been many foreign masters who have come to heaven to challenge the sword. However, those who can pass the nine levels can be said to be very rare, and they are all peerless experts with great fame.
Not many people have heard of Qin Yun's name, but the grievances between him and Cheng Yinghu spread quickly with the news of Pilgrim's Sword, causing thousands of disciples of the Sword Sect to feel the same hatred.
Many young sword sect disciples are gearing up, hoping to be selected to guard a level so that Qin Yun can experience Beihu's unique skills and strive for this opportunity to become famous.
In a courtyard on the south side of Beichen Palace on Beichen Peak, Zhao Chen, the elder of the Sword Sect, sat in a small hall and fell into deep thought. Sitting on the left and right sides were his six disciples, including Gu Shanhe and Cheng Yinghu.
"Master, what are you still thinking about? Let me guard the first level!"
Cheng Yinghu waited for a long time, and finally couldn't restrain his impatience. He stood up and asked Zhao Chen for help.
Day and night, he wished to cut Qin Yun, his brother-killer's enemy, into pieces with a thousand knives. He had devoted himself to practicing swordsmanship for several years, thinking that he would not be much worse than Qin Yun. He would have a good chance of defeating Qin Yun in the first level and take revenge.
avenge.
Of course, the revenge of killing my brother must be avenged by my own brother!
Zhao Chen took a long breath and stared at Cheng Yinghu with cold eyes: "Yinghu, I know you are eager for revenge, but with your current state of mind and strength, I'm afraid you are no match for Qin Yun. I will not send you there.
Guarding the Sword Asking Platform. Not even at the first level!"
Cheng Yinghu suddenly became anxious after hearing this, and was about to stand up to say a few words. Zhao Chen raised his hand to stop him and said: "I have seen your progress over the years, but Qin Yun can come to pay homage to the mountain as a representative disciple of the Tiancheng Sword Sect.
Tie, there is no doubt about his strength, otherwise he would not be arrogant enough to dare to test the nine swords."
"This battle is of great importance. We must not lose, so I must carefully consider the candidates to guard the Eight Sword Asking Platform. You, Senior Brother Gu, can guard one level, but you can't!"
He said the last sentence resolutely. Cheng Yinghu knew that his master's temper was uncompromising, so he could only lower his head helplessly and aggrievedly.
Gu Shanhe, who was sitting next to him, reached out and patted his shoulder and said, "Junior brother, the same thing will happen when we defeat Qin Yun. Will he not be at your mercy?"
"But he is the representative of Jianzong, and I can't really kill him." Cheng Yinghu said bitterly.
Although he was filled with hatred for Qin Yun, he knew very well that the Sword Sect would not allow him to actually kill Qin Yun, otherwise he would not be able to explain it to the Tiancheng Sword Sect.
Zhao Chen sneered and said: "What does it matter if you can't kill? If you break the Qi Sea, your martial arts will be useless. When you go back, you will be expelled from the sect. If you want to kill then, who will stop you?"
"Although I am sure of winning, I can't help but guard against that kid having another trump card."
As a high-ranking elder of the Sword Sect, Zhao Chen's scheming skills were naturally unparalleled. He always had a vague uneasy feeling in his heart, as if he had missed something, so he kept thinking deeply.
"Master, three senior brothers, Zhao Yingcheng, Lei Changying and Ouyang Yingxiong came to ask for an audience!"
At this time, a disciple hurriedly came to the small hall to report.
Zhao Chen couldn't help but his eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands and said, "You're just in time, please invite them in!"
Langya Sanying is the most outstanding disciple of the younger generation of Beihu Sword Sect. Among them, Zhao Yingcheng is also a junior of his own clan. He originally planned to invite the other party to join the battle, but he did not expect that the three of them would take the initiative to come.
After a while, Zhao Yingcheng and three others entered the small hall. They all saluted Zhao Chen and said, "Disciple Zhao Yingcheng, Lei Changying, and Ouyang Yingxiong have met our master!"
Zhao Chen put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "No need to be polite, just sit down!"
After the three of them sat down, Zhao Yingcheng first said impatiently: "Uncle, we all know that Qin Yun is going to go to heaven to challenge the nine levels. The three of us want to guard one level, so we ask for your approval!"
Zhao Chen smiled and said: "If we don't speak the same language as one family, even if you don't come over, I will go over and find you! I have decided to hand over the sixth, seventh, and eighth levels to you. As for the order, it is up to you to discuss it.
Decide."
Zhao Yingcheng, Lei Changying and Ouyang Yingxiong looked at each other and smiled happily.
Zhao Chen saw it in his eyes and understood in his heart.
The Three Heroes of Langya would not come to the door for no reason. Although the disciples of the Tiancheng Sword Sect challenge Tianlu, as the best disciples of their generation, they have the unshirkable responsibility to go out to the town to ask for the sword, but that is definitely not the most important reason.
The key lies in the families behind the three of them!
Although the Beihu Sword Sect is a reclusive sect, the news is not closed at all. The senior leaders of the Sword Sect already know clearly that the Tiancheng Sword Sect issued the Yanyun Heroic Order to summon an alliance of various sects to fight against the Wu Clan.
However, the reactions of the five families and the seven sects are different, and some are willing to join the alliance to fight against powerful enemies. As the saying goes, if the Tiancheng Sword Sect is destroyed by the Wu clan, these sects will also face annihilation.
But some people think that it is unfounded worries. It has not been a year or two since the Wu clan wanted to go south to herd horses in the Central Plains of Kyushu. In the past thousands of years, they have never succeeded. Tiancheng Sword Sect's own strength is enough to cope with it.
Some people even maliciously speculated that the Sword Sect wanted to use the disciples of each sect as cannon fodder to keep the Tiancheng lineage's status among the ten major sects intact. The North Lake Sword Sect could just sit back and enjoy the benefits.
These two completely different views have their own supporters, and the Zhao family, Lei family and Ouyang family all belong to the latter.
It's just that everyone agrees that the Beihu Sword Sect cannot directly oppose the Tiancheng Sword Sect's alliance call to avoid becoming the target of public criticism. After all, the Tiancheng Sword Sect occupies a righteous cause.
Their idea was to delay until they could no longer delay, and then send a few disciples over to make up the number.
Therefore, the Tiancheng Sword Sect sent a disciple representative to pay homage to the mountain and send a message. The forces opposing the alliance must do something secretly. It would be best if the Sword Sect could retreat in the face of difficulties.
And now Qin Yun, the representative disciple of the Sword Sect, is going to heaven to learn about swordsmanship, which undoubtedly gives them an excellent opportunity.
As long as Qin Yun fails to break through the barrier and has no face to meet the Shangguan Ancestor, the matter can continue to be delayed.
Of course, Zhao Chen is definitely happy to see success. Now that Zhao Yingcheng, Lei Changying and Ouyang Yingxiong have come to visit, his self-confidence has reached its peak, and he doesn't even think about the possibility of failure.
"Shanhe is here to guard the fifth level. I will choose a few more reliable disciples for the first four levels. Even if I let Qin Yun pass, he will have to exhaust all his strength. Let's see how he can still be so brazen!"
The sky is getting dark, and the lanterns of Langya City under Beichen Peak are beginning to light up.
After having dinner in the Yingbin Pavilion, Qin Yun took Fang Ruobing to visit the night market in Langya City.
With Fang Ruobing's cold temperament, she couldn't help but worry about him, and said angrily: "Tomorrow you will go to Heaven to learn swordsmanship and test the nine levels of swordsmanship. The other party will definitely send out masters and strong men to fight. People are worried about you to death. You still have
Go shopping at the night market in a leisurely way!”
At this moment, she showed her true feelings, her eyes full of worry: "What will I do if you lose?"
Qin Yun was moved, lowered his head and whispered a few words into her ear.
Fang Ruobing was horrified, with a look of disbelief in her beautiful eyes, because what Qin Yun said to her was so unbelievable that it completely subverted her common sense.
But for some reason, she intuitively believed that Qin Yun was not lying to her.
Qin Yun smiled and said: "If I wasn't sure, how could I take the initiative to ask for the nine-pass sword test? So don't worry, I will never let the sect be embarrassed. We must not only complete the task this time, but also do it well."
pretty!"
The strong self-confidence he revealed infected the girl. Fang Ruobing's originally suppressed mood felt much better. Unexpectedly, her little hand was held by Qin Yun: "Then let's go!"
With no time to resist, she was led by Qin Yun's hand and walked together to the street.
Although Langya City is not as prosperous as Xuanwu City at night, the main street is still very lively with people coming and going. There are many shops along the street, and the rows of lanterns hanging under the eaves shine brightly, illuminating the street as bright as day.
There weren't many special items sold in the store, but the most famous dresses made of Dianze Lake beads and cloud silk caught Fang Ruobing's attention.
Dianze Lake pearls are famous for their round, white, bright and large size. The finest pearls have been nurtured in the deep lake Lingbei for hundreds of years. One pearl is the size of a pigeon egg. It contains water aura that can moisturize and nourish the skin. It can be called a pearl.
Excellent.
If it were in other places, the best Dianze Lake beads would have been collected by wealthy people, but here, Qin Yun still bought a high-quality bead necklace, which cost him a full three hundred pieces of spiritual jade!
But it was worth the money. After Fang Ruobing put it on, her skin became more and more like snow. Even though she was covered with a veil, she couldn't hide her stunning beauty, which attracted the attention of passers-by.
Yunnan silkworm is also a specialty of the Dahu Islands in Dianze. The texture of Yunnan silkworm is better than that of ordinary silk. The silk satin weaved by Yunnan silkworm is extremely delicate and smooth. It is as light as nothing when worn on the body and can better isolate dust and dirt.
Fang Ruobing bought ten dresses in one go and said he would take half of them back to Fang Ziling. Fortunately, Qin Yun had the Sumeru Ring with him to hold things, otherwise it would have been difficult to take them with him.
It was rare for Fang Ruobing to go out and stroll around the market. Her female nature was aroused and she bought a lot of things besides Huzhu and Yunsilk Skirt.
The two of them walked and looked around for more than an hour before they reached the end of the long street.
Just as Qin Yun and Fang Ruobing were getting ready to go back, they suddenly heard loud noises coming from in front of them and saw a wooden platform with lanterns set up not far away. A large group of people gathered around and didn't know what they were doing. (
