An Zhenzhen sat on the viewing platform of the martial arts arena with a dull expression. Her mind was not on those people who were working hard to become her master. She lowered her head and looked at the cards in her hands in a daze.
Cheng Huang's strength exceeded many people's expectations. He won consecutive battles and won the final victory by winning three consecutive battles.
Saint Taiwei was very satisfied with this result. Cheng Huang was the representative of the faction he valued most, and he was also the most outstanding among them all. There was nothing better than being An Zhenzhen's master.
The incident in Xuanyin Canyon, if it weren't for this reason, Saint Taiwei wouldn't have let Cheng Huang and the others go so easily.
"Sir Taiwei Sage." Cheng Huang walked up to the high platform and saluted to Taiwei Sage, while the other five people stood aside angrily.
"Very good. From today on, you will be Zhenzhen's master. Please be sure to teach her swordsmanship well." Saint Taiwei said to Cheng Huang with a smile on his face.
"Please rest assured, Taiwei Sage, I will teach you everything I have learned, and I will never let you down," Cheng Huang swore quickly.
"Zhenzhen, why don't you come over and pay homage to your master?" Saint Taiwei frowned slightly when he saw An Zhenzhen was still dazed on the side.
"Isn't he coming?" There was still no one in the direction of the door. An Zhen was really disappointed. He carefully put the cards away, stood up and walked towards Cheng Huang.
The An family will continue to gain a foothold in the Jitian Territory. An Zhen really has no choice. If Bai Cangdong doesn't come, she can only obey the arrangements of Taiwei Saint. This is the price of being named An, and it is the price of being a Saint.
cost.
Cheng Huang watched An Zhenzhen slowly walking towards him, and was secretly happy in his heart. After so much effort, he finally lived up to his master's trust. He finally established a relationship with Saint Taiwei, which was tantamount to attracting the attention of the Third Highness.
He received a strong support and also accepted a disciple with the body of Xuntian Sword Veins. He was destined to become a king's genius in the future. It was really a good thing that killed two birds with one stone. Everyone would be overjoyed.
"Who said you could become his disciple?" Just as An Zhenzhen was about to walk up to Cheng Huang, a voice sounded like thunder and lightning, making An Zhenzhen tremble. He turned around in surprise and faced the voice.
place to look at.
On the stone steps at the entrance to the martial arts arena, Bai Cangdong was walking along the stone steps in a strange rhythm.
"Sword Master Bai." An Zhenzhen ran over in surprise, and when she got in front of Bai Candong, she didn't know what to do. She just took out the viscount-level sword and card that Bai Candong gave her, and asked to return them.
Bai Cangdong.
Bai Candong took back the card, but did not take back the sword. He said lightly: "Think of that sword as a gift from my master."
"Thank you, Master." An Zhenzhen held the sword and was about to bow down.
"Wait a minute." Cheng Huang looked ugly and said coldly: "Sword Master Bai, you're late. Lord Taiwei Sage has decided that I will be Miss An's sword master."
"I remember that Lord Taiwei Sage once said personally that it is up to her to choose who will be Miss An's master." Bai Cangdong said calmly.
"Lord Taiwei Saint..." Cheng Huang looked at Taiwei Saint.
Saint Taiwei looked at Bai Cangdong expressionlessly and said: "Sword Master Bai, I did say that, but I also once said that I only have one month for you. That time has long passed, and now
The person I recognize is Cheng Huang. Only he is the true master."
"Sword Master Bai, you should have heard clearly, right? You can leave now." Cheng Huang sneered at Bai Cangdong.
An Zhenzhen's face was a little pale. If Saint Taiwei insisted that she become Cheng Huang's master, she would have no room to resist.
"Grandpa, I really just want to ask Master Bai to be my master." An Zhenzhen was anxious to express his attitude to Saint Taiwei.
"It's nonsense. It's such a big deal to become your master. How can you be ridiculous? Since I have decided that Cheng Huang will be your master, then only Cheng Huang is qualified to be your master. How can you be dishonest as a human being?" Taiwei Sage.
shouted sharply.
Taiwei Shengde's attitude made Cheng Huang feel at ease. Although An Zhenzhen didn't really worship him as his teacher, as long as he had this title, it was enough. He could make Taiwei Sage stand in the camp of His Highness the Third Highness.
his main purpose.
Although it was a pity that he could not gain An Zhenzhen's sincere apprenticeship, that was all he could do. He would never give up this alliance because of An Zhenzhen's attitude.
"Did you hear that, Mr. Bai? Get out of here right now." Cheng Huang shouted to Bai Cangdong with a smug look on his face.
An Zhenzhen's face turned pale, and her heart was already in despair. Sage Taiwei was so determined, I'm afraid she would definitely become Cheng Huang's disciple today.
"Sword Master Bai, you have done enough for me. In my heart, you are the only true master in this life. You..." An Zhenzhen was afraid that Saint Taiwei would take action to drive Bai Candong away, but
Holding back the unwillingness in his heart, he said to Bai Cangdong.
"Children should not interrupt when adults are talking." Bai Cangdong held An Zhenzhen's little hand, pulled An Zhenzhen behind him, stared at Cheng Huang with razor-sharp eyes and said, "If I must let her do it today,
Do you want to be my disciple?"
"Bai, you don't even look at where this place is. You dare to rob someone in front of Taiwei Saint. Why do you do this? What qualifications do you have to do this? I think you are tired of living." Cheng Huang
Said disdainfully.
"Sage Taiwei, I'm going to decide An Zhenzhen. Even if I'm robbing someone, do you think I'm qualified to rob someone?" Bai Cangdong's eyes fell on Saint Taiwei and he said calmly.
Cheng Huang, Xu Mian and others, including An Zhenzhen, were all shocked after hearing Bai Candong's words. They never expected that Bai Candong would dare to speak to Taiwei Sage like this.
"White Prince Consort, please don't make things difficult for me. I have promised to let Zhenzhen become Cheng Huang's disciple." Saint Taiwei said with a bitter smile.
Taiwei Sage's answer also surprised Cheng Huang and others. They never expected that Taiwei Sage would have such an attitude towards Bai Cangdong's unreasonableness, and the title "White Consort" made them unable to react for a moment.
, it is really that Bai Cangdong has not appeared in the sight of everyone in the Beiming family for too long. Decades are enough for people to forget a lot of things.
"What if I must rob someone?" Bai Cangdong looked at Saint Taiwei with pure eyes and asked again.
"Taiwei can't be rude to the people of the Beiming family. He doesn't dare to offend the consort, but the only real master Taiwei recognizes is Cheng Huang." Saint Taiwei said helplessly.
Saint Taiwei's answer made everyone stay there, but Cheng Huang was the first to react, pointing at Bai Candong and shouting: "Bai Candong, you are Bai Candong!"
"Yes, I am Bai Candong. Today I will decide on this apprenticeship. Does anyone have any opinions?" Bai Candong stood proudly on the stone steps like a sword blade and said arrogantly.
An Zhenzhen stood behind Bai Candong. She held the clothes behind Bai Candong's back with her little hands. Looking at Bai Candong's tall background, she felt an indescribable warmth and sense of security in her heart. Her eyes were red, and there was a sparkle in her eye sockets.
He turned around and was speechless for a moment.
"Bai Consort, although you are a noble consort, you can't do such a thing as taking someone's disciple by force." Cheng Huang was not afraid of Bai Candong, but because Bai Candong was half a member of the Beiming family,
As a retainer, he cannot be disrespectful to Bai Cangdong, at least in front of others.
"So what if I just robbed him." Bai Cangdong said domineeringly. Today he is here to be a villain. Words like gentleness, reserve, and kindness are destined to have nothing to do with who he is today.
"Then please forgive me for being rude. Miss An is my disciple, and I will never allow my consort to take her away. My consort can take Miss An away if he wants, but he must first defeat the sword in my hand." Cheng
Akira drew out his long sword, pointed at Bai Cangdong and raised his voice.
"One sword." Bai Candong suddenly said something without any beginning or end.
"What sword?" Everyone was stunned.
"Take my sword without dying. I will consider you to have won." Bai Cangdong said with a smile.
After everyone understood what Bai Candong meant, they all felt that Bai Candong was a little arrogant. Although Bai Candong had the title of the No. 1 Marquis in the World decades ago, there has been almost no news about his true strength in the past few decades.
How few people have the idea.
And after all, he is only a marquis, while Cheng Huang is a top-notch duke. They have all learned about Cheng Huang's strength before, and they are very clear about Cheng Huang's power. It is really frustrating for Bai Cangdong, the marquis, to kill Cheng Huang with one sword.
They couldn't believe it.
In their opinion, no matter how powerful Bai Candong is, it would be great if he could fight evenly with the top Duke Cheng Huang, but it would be ridiculous to kill him instantly.
Cheng Huang's face was livid, and he was extremely angry, but he did not show it. He just said coldly: "Then I will take the sword from the White Consort. If I take the sword from the White Consort, please leave Miss An and leave."
"What are you talking about? Don't tell me that I can't lose at all. Even if I lose, I will still take her away." Bai Candong said without blushing.
"You...how can you be so unreasonable!" Cheng Huang was so angry that he almost stuttered.
"I have no intention of being reasonable today." Bai Cangdong said, reaching out and shooting a sword light from his finger towards Cheng Huang.
Cheng Huang was startled, and immediately expanded his territory, and then stood ready, using his most powerful defensive privileges, and at the same time using his extremely powerful attack privileges, he struck at the sword light that Bai Candong shot.
Unexpectedly, Bai Candong's sword light was directly chopped into pieces when it came into contact with Cheng Huang's sword light, turning into fragmented light spots scattered in the air and disappearing in the blink of an eye.
"How could this happen?" Cheng Huang was stunned for a moment.
"Does Bai Cangdong, who is known as the No. 1 Marquis in the world, only have this little ability?" Xu Mian and others were also stunned.
Just when everyone was confused, they saw Cheng Huang's skin split open and blood spurting out for some unknown reason. He looked at Cheng Huang with wide eyes and a horrified look on his face, who had already turned around and pulled An Zhenzhen away after the sword light was fired.
Bai Candong was speechless. The domain and the sword light disappeared at the same time, and his people were resurrected at the same time.
A flash of sword light instantly killed the top Duke Cheng Huang. Xu Mian and others were shocked and pale. After Cheng Huang was resurrected, he looked at Bai Candong's back and his expression changed for a long time, until Bai Candong led An Zhenzhen and walked away to perform martial arts.
In the end, there was still no action.
An Zhenzhen, who was being held by Bai Candong's hand, flushed with excitement, her petite body leaned against Bai Candong's side, her other little hand tightly held the corner of Bai Candong's clothes, and looked up at Bai Candong.
Dong's profile.
"Master."
"Um?"
"It's really great to have you here." An Zhenzhen closed her eyes, held Bai Candong's arm and followed Bai Candong forward, feeling no more uneasiness or confusion in her heart.
"Um."
Under the afterglow of the setting sun, two figures, one high and one low, were standing close together, stretched by the warm sunshine.
