Jiang Ling's eyes widened immediately. The first place was to be the son-in-law of the county prince's palace. What kind of operation is this?
"Princess Ziyue, the daughter of the county king, has come of age. This Tianjiao battle is a competition to recruit a bride. The county king has already announced that the first place in the Tianjiao battle will marry Princess Ziyue." Yun Xiaoyue explained.
"I think you can take the first place and become the son-in-law of the county king. Then you don't have to worry about being pursued by the Qiyi Pavilion, and it will be easy to promote the alliance." Qingyan blinked and said.
Jiang Ling's mouth twitched. What he said made sense, but...
"It's impossible, it's impossible in this life. Relationships are about mutual consent, and we already have someone in our hearts. Do we have to go against our will?"
"What's more, this Princess Ziyue might still be ugly. Otherwise, why would she be so anxious to get married? I'm afraid she's too ugly to get married."
Yun Xiaoyue floated a word: "Princess Ziyue has been charming the country and the city since she was a child. She is sixteen years old this year and is already in the late stage of the golden elixir. She is also the legendary nine-marked golden elixir, which is the true treasure of heaven.
A proud girl, the people who admire her can line up from Zishan County to Qingshan County."
"Is it so powerful?"
Jiang Ling was dumbfounded, the slap in the face came too quickly.
"However, if it doesn't work, it won't work. I am a traditional man and I respect monogamy the most."
"Don't traditional men have three wives and four concubines? Monks have long lifespans and usually have more than one Taoist companion." Qingyan said with a smile.
Jiang Ling curled his lips. He should not mess around with women when he was out. If Shi Wuyou found out, he would probably be called a disciple for the rest of his life.
"You are quite single-minded. I don't know who the woman in your heart is." Yun Xiaoyue glanced at Jiang Ling unexpectedly.
Qingyan also looked curious, wondering if it was Shi Wuyou or the nine-marked golden elixir Baihua from before.
"Why are you asking? Anyway, I am prettier than you, stronger than you, more talented than you, and know how to take care of others better than you."
At this point, Jiang Ling felt like flying back to find Shi Wuyou.
However, now is not the time.
Yun Xiaoyue's eyes were full of shame and anger. After all, she was also the most beautiful woman in the country and had countless suitors, but she was compared to nothing.
"Oh, you play the piano well, that's all you have."
gas!
Yun Xiaoyue pouted her little mouth.
…
Ten days later.
"This is the Imperial City? It's bigger and more lively than imagined."
Jiang Ling and the three of them wandered around the county king's city and found monks everywhere, wearing various costumes.
"The battle of geniuses is coming soon. All the young heroes from Ziyun County are gathered here, so there are naturally many people." Qingyan said.
"How many days will it take for the Prodigy Battle to begin?" Jiang Ling asked.
Qingyan set her sights on Yun Xiaoyue.
"There are eight days left." Yun Xiaoyue said softly, her red lips parted.
After spending these days with the two of them, she discovered that they were not evil monks, and that they exuded the kind of temperament that could only be possessed by a peerless genius.
However, the two of them are flawless and have not revealed their true identities until now.
"Next, I'm going to visit the Prince at the Prince's Mansion. Do you want to go with me?" Qingyan asked.
"Forget it, I won't go. I'll find a place to retreat and practice."
Afterwards, Jiang Ling directly took Yun Xiaoyue away.
He still doesn't feel at ease about this woman. Since most sects in Ziyun County will come, the Qiyi Pavilion is probably no exception.
Naturally, Yun Xiaoyue cannot be given a chance to contact Qiyi Pavilion.
Afterwards, he found a room to stay in an inn.
"During this period, you stay here and you can't go anywhere."
Jiang Ling sealed all the doors and windows with spiritual power.
Yun Xiaoyue immediately became unhappy.
"I'm a woman and I want you to live in the same room. What should I do if I need to take a shower?"
"Wash, I didn't say I wouldn't let you wash. If you want hot water, I'll get it for you." Jiang Ling looked indifferent.
Yun Xiaoyue immediately walked away angrily and found a curtain to divide the entire room into two areas.
Jiang Ling didn't care and started busying himself.
"Improve your strength and go see Wuyou as soon as possible."
He thought for a while and suddenly remembered something.
"I remember that Lao Liu gave me a magical power, but it was delayed and I didn't practice it. Where did I put it?"
Jiang Ling searched for it in his space bracelet, but took out a wooden box.
"Didn't that little girl Gongsun Yu give this to me when she said goodbye?"
He had almost forgotten about this wooden box, and now he had time to see what was inside.
Opening this quaint wooden box, I found a thick scroll lying inside.
"Scroll? Why are you giving me this?"
Jiang Ling opened the scroll casually, glanced at it, and suddenly his hand shook and he almost threw the scroll away.
He couldn't believe his eyes. He saw three bright words written on the top of the scroll - Shangyu Shu!
"How is that possible? I already got the Yushu from Liu Wanyin, why is there still a copy here? It still belongs to that little girl."
However, he soon discovered that something was wrong. This volume of Shangyu Shu gave him a mysterious and mysterious feeling, and it was more difficult to understand than the previous volume he had read.
Moreover, the content of this volume of Shangyu Book is actually twice as long as that volume!
Therefore, Jiang Ling made a bold guess.
"Could it be that this is the real Shangyu Book, and the Qiyi Pavilion's is just a fragment... No, it should be a replica. There will never be two copies of this kind of treasure in the world."
He was shocked. Gongsun Yu seemed to be just a little girl who loved drinking. How could there be a real book on rain?
And they said they would give it away!
Could it be that she comes from a powerful family, or is she a descendant of Yushangren?
Jiang Ling felt his head was dizzy. Regardless of whether these guesses were right or wrong, in short, the little girl Gongsun Yu was definitely not as simple as she seemed on the surface.
Later, he carefully compared the true and false books on rain and found that the contents of the fake book on rain were consistent with the first part of the real book on rain.
"The fake Book on Rain only contains one-third of the content, but it contains a secret technique. So doesn't the real Book on Rain contain three secret techniques?!"
Jiang Ling felt that his breathing was quickening. If it was true, wouldn't it be a huge profit?
This was left by the Immortal, and its value may not be much worse than the Immortal King's Laurel Picture.
Afterwards, Jiang Ling couldn't wait to start comprehending.
But this time I sat for a whole day and couldn't understand anything except the original part.
"It seems that my level is not enough."
Jiang Ling thought for a while and put the Shangyu book away.
Then, he took out the magical power that Liu Tianjun gave him - Xuanming Slash!
"Earth-level magical power, not bad, not bad. Lao Liu is quite generous in this regard."
After reading the preface of this magical power, Jiang Ling's evaluation was in three words - powerful!
Because this Xuan Ming Slash can actually ignore defense!
