In the presidential suite of another star hotel in Shanghai, Shen Qian was playing with the inconspicuous black dagger under the light.
Shen Qian remembered that he once asked the gentle version of Tantai Qin how much power his body could burst out.
At that time, Tantaiqin told her that if she used all her strength, the destructive power of a sword would be at least 500,000 kilograms.
Even if this sword does not have the full power of the original body, it should still have 70% to 80% power, right?
Shen Qian could not imagine how many mountains and seas could withstand this sword.
Shen Qian, who once again gained a powerful trump card, reluctantly forgave the woman who stabbed him in the chest.
After putting away the dagger, Shen Qian was shocked to realize another fact.
His space ring is almost full.
It was originally a bargain worth six million, with only half a cubic meter of space. It seemed quite big at first, but now, it is obviously not worthy of Shen Qian's status.
Not to mention anything else, the elixirs and psychic weapons Shen Qian had reserved accounted for more than half, as well as daily necessities such as clothing.
The problem is that space crystals in large spaces are really not that easy to buy.
Mainly because they have a price but no market, they are rare items. Lao Liu's goose egg-sized one was also found at an auction.
The contribution value of the Hundred Kings Palace has been temporarily used up again. Otherwise, you can exchange it for a one cubic meter coin from the Hundred Kings Palace first.
Fortunately, Shen Qian is not in a hurry at the moment.
Tantai Qin's necklace is still with him. He is not sure whether Tantai Qin's identity is due to ignorance or other reasons, and he has never asked for it from him.
Compared with Shen Qian's tattered ring, Tantaiqin's space necklace is as big as ten cubic meters, and there is nothing else in it except a few pieces of Tantaiqin's clothes, so it can be borrowed temporarily.
Putting away his distracting thoughts, Shen Qian turned his mind back to the notes he had just written on the desktop.
"The earliest known one is the so-called Immortal God Era. At that time, the strong men were born and raised by the earth, and the 'immortal warriors' did not belong to the human race..."
"Then how was the human race born?"
"Does Nuwa exist, or are we really evolved from apes?"
"During the period of the rule of immortal gods, the existence of ancient human races existed, corresponding to the period described in "Ancient Human Race History", and then the first batch of ancient warriors began to appear..."
"According to what Third Senior Brother said, the existing Guwu family is probably the inheritance of this sect."
"Assuming that King Zhou Yi really lived for thousands of years and spanned from the Zhou Dynasty to the present day, what should he be?"
"King Jiangling is the head of the nine kings. He must know these things. Does that mean that King Zhou Yi has belonged to the new martial arts school?"
Shen Qian recorded all the information he knew so far on paper, but found that it was still a fog.
In fact, Shen Qian didn't write about the man in white he would dream about from time to time, and Gao, the boss he respected most in his life.
The man in white has not figured out his identity yet, but assuming that the boss Gao has contact with the man in white, he will definitely know something.
The paradox is that when Shen Qian was walking up the stairs of the Babel Tower, the first half of his life he saw was clearly in the ancient times when nothing happened.
But the encyclopedia of Boss Gao says that he was born and raised in Jingcheng.
Anyway, now that Shen Qian has woken up, not a single word written in the book can be believed.
Beside, Ji Ruoshui was still lying unconscious on the bed, his forehead wrinkled from time to time, but he didn't know what nightmare he had.
"Everyone has hair on their bodies... Bah, it's a secret!"
Shen Qian stared at the round and fair oval face of the Eighth Senior Sister and murmured.
It turns out that the eighth senior sister was brought back from Kunlun Mountain by her teacher.
This is the secret that Shen Qian just pried out from the mouth of the third senior brother.
As for more mysteries about Ji Ruoshui, either Shi Dingyan was unwilling to tell him, or Shi Dingyan didn't know about it either.
Shen Qian prefers the latter.
Shen Qian did not dare to forget Ji Ruoshui's inexplicable attraction to the system. Every time Shen Qian saw Ji Ruoshui, he would tighten his mind, for fear that the system would go crazy again and do something worse than a beast.< /p>
It's just that the system has gone silent recently for unknown reasons, but it has never lost control in front of Ji Ruoshui.
"Well..."
At this time, a faint squeaking sound came from his ears. Shen Qian turned around and saw Ji Ruoshui opening his eyes hazy.
"Eighth Senior Sister, you're awake."
"Ah, junior brother, we..."
Ji Ruoshui sat up nervously. When he found that the surrounding area had become safe, he breathed a sigh of relief and immediately felt a little embarrassed.
"Do you still feel uncomfortable in any way? I just did a general check and there should be nothing serious about your body."
Shen Qian asked with concern.
"I'm fine, it's just... By the way, junior brother, just now, I, I..."
Ji Ruoshui shook his head first, then seemed to remember what happened just now, his face turned pale, and his tone became hesitant.
"Eighth Senior Sister, if you don't want to say it, don't say it. I know you must have your own difficulties, otherwise you would have told me a long time ago, right?"
Shen Qian gently held her soft palm and smiled.
Although Shen Qian was very curious, once he saw Ji Ruoshui's troubled face, he knew that this matter could not be rushed.
Ji Ruoshui was stunned for a moment and then looked at Shen Qian blankly. Before Shen Qian could react, tears were already falling down her face.
Ji Ruoshui's tears did not condense into crystal like Tantai Qin's, but they still made Shen Qian a little worried.
He hugged Ji Ruoshui, who was as soft as a bone, and it took a while for Ji Ruushui to calm down.
"Shen Qian." Ji Ruoshui murmured.
Shen Qian was startled. This was the first time that the Eighth Senior Sister called him by his first name.
"Hey." Shen Qian responded.
"Shen... before..." Ji Ruoshui read it again, softly but with extra force, as if he wanted to remember something.
"Eighth Senior Sister, you seem to have something on your mind?"
Shen Qian noticed something unusual.
"I'm fine, I'm just a little tired." Ji Ruoshui whispered.
Shen Qian did not expose her. Seeing that Ji Ruoshui was in a low mood, Shen Qian originally wanted to ask why Tantai Qin lost his composure, but he could only find another opportunity.
"Eighth Senior Sister, please rest. I'm right next door. If you need anything, just call me."
Shen Qian put Ji Ruoshui into bed, stood up and said.
"Well..."
Ji Ruoshui's red lips parted slightly, but he stopped talking.
"Is there anything else?" Shen Qian was a little strange.
Ji Ruoshui nodded and shook his head, his eyes evasive, and a strange flush appeared on his originally pale cheeks.
"Eighth Senior Sister, what's wrong with you?"
Shen Qian was confused.
But Ji Ruoshui remained silent.
"Do you want me to stay and sleep with you?" Shen Qian rolled his eyes and made a bold guess.
"Ah, no, I... I'm just fine..."
When Ji Ruoshui heard Shen Qian's explicit words, his cheeks instantly turned red, and he quickly shook his head at a loss.
"Eighth Senior Sister, why don't you just say it directly? I have little experience and sometimes I really don't understand..."
Although Shen Qian felt that he was very sharp, he still lacked some skills in understanding women, so he could only say helplessly.
"You...what you did to me next to the elevator that day, can you do it again?"
Ji Ruoshui covered his face with the quilt, and after nagging for a while, he finally said with a trembling tone.
Her voice was so quiet that if Shen Qian hadn't poured his mental power into his ears, he might not have been able to hear her.
What to do next to the elevator?
Shen Qian recalled it and seemed to understand something.
Perhaps because of Ji Ruoshui's personality, Shen Qian's blood boiled over when he suddenly heard such a request. He strode forward and lifted up the quilt amidst Ji Ruoshui's exclamations. His whole body felt a bit arrogant. Go up.
Hmm... so sweet.
……
January 15th.
The neatly dressed Shen Qian walked out of the elevator and immediately saw Qu Bai and Feng Manlin waiting in the lobby.
The two of them were also dressed in formal attire.
The day of the Nine Days War is set for January 18th three days later, and today is the day when Shen Qian is invited to visit Luo Shenbo’s home.
It was only after Qu Bai contacted Shen Qian yesterday that Shen Qian found out that this was not a private banquet.
Shen Qian is not the only genius Luo Shenbo invited.
Qu Bai and Feng Manlin from the same school were also invited, as well as young talents from other martial arts colleges.
So Shen Qian couldn't understand why Qu Xiangyun insisted on inviting him on the ring.
...This made his already precarious moral integrity in the eyes of acquaintances even worse.
"But if you think about it from another angle, this also means treating you differently, right? I have some understanding of Qu Xiangyun's character before, maybe it was really the one who was inspired by Uncle Luo Shen!"
The three of them left the hotel side by side, Feng Manlin smiled.
"Senior sister, please stop joking. Uncle Luo Shen is a high-ranking prince. Why do you think of me differently?"
Shen Qian said helplessly.
"Most people probably won't, but you are an eighteen-year-old mountain and sea, and you have killed another mountain and sea with one sword. You are worth it."
Qu Bai said meaningfully.
Just as Shen Qian was about to be humble, a few childish shouts suddenly came from beside him.
"It's Shen Qian!"
"Brother Shen Qian..."
Before Shen Qian could react, he was surrounded by a group of enthusiastic primary school students.
"Brother Shen Qian, can I take a photo with you?"
"Brother Shen Qian, please sign your name for me. I will take the national martial arts champion exam like you in the future!"
A bunch of posters with photos of Shen Qian were handed over. After Shen Qian was shocked, he looked at these expectant children and could only take the pen and sign his name.
... Damn, I forgot to take the time to practice calligraphy.
Seeing the primary school students reluctantly leaving, Shen Qian was a little dazed for a moment.
"You must be used to these small scenes, right? Why can't you extricate yourself?"
Feng Manlin on the side couldn't help but cover her mouth and smiled when she saw this.
"No, I'm just feeling a little emotional."
Shen Qian came back to his senses and shook his head.
As the shocking battle in the Jiutian Cup continued to ferment, Shen Qian's personal reputation reached a new peak after the martial arts college entrance examination.
This time is even different from the college entrance examination. When Shen Qian showed his strength in Shanhai, the attention he aroused was not limited to the level of colleges and universities.
After all, Shanhai, in most perceptions, has reached the pinnacle of social class.
Not to mention the many privileges that belong to mountain and sea warriors, the monthly subsidy given by the Ministry of Martial Arts to the powerful mountain and sea warriors starts at 100,000 yuan.
An eighteen-year-old Shan Hai is an unimaginable existence for ordinary people.
Shen Qian has even accumulated a group of fanatical fans online, and most of them are teenagers.
In order to keep a low profile these days, he almost stayed at home and played the piano and jade with the Eighth Senior Sister every day in a relaxed and relaxed manner, but he could still vaguely feel that the luck condensed in him was growing crazily.
"What are you feeling?" Qu Bai asked curiously.
"I remember that when I was as old as them, my heart was as high as the sky. At that time, the most common thing I said to my parents every day was that from now on we would live in a house as big as the City Lord's Mansion and eat seafood every meal... ”
Shen Qian shook his head and said.
"But haven't you already done it?" Feng Manlin smiled.
"It's different..." Shen Qian said softly with unclear meaning.
Shen Qian didn't say what was different about it, and Feng Manlin and Qu Bai didn't ask any more questions. They just noticed that Shen Qian's mood seemed to be inexplicably lower.
Luo Shenbo's residence in the Magic City is by the river, not far from the hotel, but as a courtesy, the three of them rented an extended Hongqi.
When the car slowly stopped at the door of the castle-like villa, and saw the crowds of people inside through the car window, Shen Qian couldn't help but squint his eyes.
"It looks like there are a lot of guests today."
"Otherwise, why do you think I want to come? Although Uncle Luo Shen has some friendship with my family, I really don't like this kind of occasion."
Qu Bai chuckled, "There is a saying in the art of war. If you know yourself and your enemy, you will never be in danger. If someone wants to publish the 'Nine Heaven Ranking' here today, you can't miss it."
Nine days list!
Shen Qian's expression condensed.
In fact, this is also the biggest reason for his arrival today.
Just after the Nine-Day Cup ended, I don’t know where the rumors originated, saying that a mysterious person had used some kind of formation to predict the rankings of the Nine-Day Competition in advance, and would choose a day to publish the rankings and announce the inside information.
Originally, no one believed this kind of boring rumor, but for some reason, it gradually spread among certain circles.
The people Shen Qian dated were not gossips. When Shi Dingyan also asked about Shen Qian, Shen Qian realized what was unusual.
For people like Shi Dingyan who don't use the Internet to hear much, there must be something special about it.
And the last rumor is that the mysterious man will set up the so-called Nine Heavens List at Luo Shenbo's residence today.
"I'm afraid that many people who were not invited in the first place will try their best to come, right?"
After the three of them got out of the car, Qu Bai said with a smile.
After Qu Bai finished speaking, he turned around and saw Shen Qian standing still, with a different look on his face, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
"Shen Qian, are you okay?"
Shen Qian came to his senses and shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
Just now, he suddenly noticed a dark and scrutinizing gaze, but he was unable to pinpoint the source.
Generally, even a warrior who is stronger than Shen Qian would not be able to do such an impolite behavior, and this person must be much stronger than Shen Qian.
"Let's go in."
Shen Qian let out a breath and walked into the gate of the manor first.
