After saying that, the old woman stopped looking at the four people, turned around and walked towards the city lord's mansion.
Xu Chunniang's mood did not relax, but became more and more dull.
This involuntary feeling is very uncomfortable.
But having already arrived, it was naturally impossible to back out, so the four of them followed the old woman in silence.
Not long after, in front of a huge arena, the four of them finally saw Zhuge Yun, Shangguan Xue, and a handsome man in a purple robe.
There was a hint of evil look between his brows and eyes.
The old woman quickly walked up to the man in purple robe and whispered a few words.
The man turned back and glanced at the four of them casually. Then his eyes fell on Zhuge Yun, showing a sarcastic smile.
"Zhuge Yun, today I will ask the people from my city lord's palace and your junior brothers and sisters to bear witness. You and I will have a competition. The one who loses will swear by his Taoist heart to voluntarily give up Sister Xue'er. Can you
Dare you agree?"
Before Zhuge Yun spoke, Shangguan Xue frowned slightly, looking disapproving.
"Brother Xie, why are you here?"
Xie Changyuan's smile deepened, his eyes lingering on Shangguan Xue's stunning appearance.
"If sister Xue'er wants to protect your senior brother, it's not impossible. All you have to do is agree to my marriage proposal."
Shangguan Xue's face was slightly stiff, and when he was about to say something, Zhuge Yun suddenly raised his head and glared at Xie Changyuan.
"Okay, I agree to this competition. The loser must swear an oath with Taoist heart."
"That's pretty much it."
Xie Changyuan chuckled lightly and took the lead to fly onto the ring.
"Senior brother...why are you doing this?"
Shangguan Xue sighed softly, but knew in her heart that at this point, the battle between the two was inevitable.
"Don't worry, junior sister, I will do my best."
Zhuge Yun finished speaking carefully and walked towards the ring.
When he was halfway there, he seemed to have thought of something and looked back at Xu Chunniang and the others.
"Just wait here and wait for a while."
Seeing Zhuge Yun on the ring, Huo Chunyan couldn't hold it back and complained to Xu Chunniang through a message.
"Tsk, tsk, I heard in the past that Senior Brother Zhuge is a crazy person, but today when I saw him, it turned out that the rumors did not deceive me.
Since the man in purple robe is a disciple of Zhenren Hunyuan, and his cultivation level is not as good as the golden elixir, he must be Xie Changyuan, who has perfected the Foundation Establishment."
Xu Chunniang looked along the ring, landed on Xie Changyuan, and had a vague guess.
During the auction that day, a voice came from Room No. 1, which was somewhat similar to Xie Changyuan's voice.
Perhaps, he was the person who was in the elegant room that day.
At this moment, the two men faced each other in the ring, and the battle was about to break out.
Xie Changyuan half-smiled, "Zhuge Yun, you have only built the eighth level of foundation, but I have already completed the foundation building. Are you sure you want to fight me?"
Zhuge Yun's face was as cold as frost, and he took out the green sword without saying a word.
"Okay, if that's the case, don't blame me for being ruthless."
As soon as Xie Changyuan finished speaking, he saw four huge black chains appear in front of him and quickly stretched towards Zhuge Yun.
Then four chains were seen crisscrossing each other, instantly forming a large network of chains.
Zhuge Yun saw Xie Changyuan's plan to encircle him, and kept swinging his sword to slash at the chains to avoid falling into the encirclement.
However, the chain was made of unknown materials, and the sword light fell on it, leaving only a shallow mark.
The long green sword looked small and weak in front of the four huge chains.
Soon, beads of sweat formed on Zhuge Yun's forehead, while the chain net tightened more and more.
He put away his sword moves, tapped his toes on a section of the chain, and flew out of the gap in the chain, escaping the siege.
However, Xie Changyuan didn't seem to care, and just drove the chain calmly and continued towards Zhuge Yun.
And those four huge chains shrank countless times in an instant according to his thoughts, and their speed suddenly increased, and they suddenly tied Zhuge Yun's right hand.
"Oops, Senior Brother Zhuge fell into the trap. Xie Changyuan was just pretending to besiege!"
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yu had a look of anxiety on his face and couldn't help but exclaimed.
The other people also frowned slightly. As a sword cultivator, Zhuge Yun's right hand was tied up, which was equivalent to being half disabled.
With a "clang" sound, as the chain tightened, the green sword in Zhuge Yun's hand fell to the ground.
However, he was not willing to admit defeat. He took out the iron seal fan with his left hand and launched an attack on Xie Changyuan.
"Little tricks."
Xie Changyuan sneered, and calmly avoided the sharp fan feathers from several tricky angles, "You are a swordsman, but you lost to me with a sword. You are just humiliating yourself with a broken fan."
A sharp look flashed in his eyes, and a small chain separated from Zhuge Yun's right hand, tightly wrapped around the iron-sealed fan, and then used force to smash it into several pieces.
The iron seal fan was destroyed, Zhuge Yun's consciousness was damaged, and his face showed pain.
Xie Changyuan took the opportunity to kill him. The spiritual power in the chain surged and pierced towards his heart!
Seeing this scene, Shangguan Xue's pupils shrank slightly, "Thank you, brother, please show mercy!"
Xie Changyuan paused slightly, but mercilessly activated the chain, piercing Zhuge Yun's heart.
Zhuge Yun screamed, lost consciousness in pain, and fainted on the ground.
"Thank you brother!"
Shangguan Xue's expression changed slightly, she scolded him quickly, and quickly flew onto the ring, took out several pills and gave them to Zhuge Yun.
"Don't worry, I made a measured move and he won't die. I just wanted to teach him a profound lesson. After all, I'm still waiting for him to swear an oath with his Taoist heart."
A smile appeared on Xie Changyuan's lips, he put away the chain and playfully wiped away the warm blood drops on it.
"Besides, no matter how bad Zhuge Yun is, he is still your senior brother. How can I bear to watch sister Xueer feel sad for your senior brother?"
After Shangguan Xue took out the elixir and gave it to Zhuge Yun, she had time to check his condition.
Zhuge Yun was seriously injured, but as Xie Changyuan said, his life was not in danger.
She breathed a sigh of relief, but her face still didn't look good.
At this moment, Zhuge Yun coughed slightly and woke up.
His eyes were instantly locked on Shangguan Xue, who was very close at hand. His eyes were complicated and lost, "Junior sister..."
Xie Changyuan glanced over, landed on Zhuge Yun, and interrupted him happily.
"Now that you're awake, let's take the oath of Taoism first."
Zhuge Yun's originally pale complexion suddenly lost all color. He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. He just looked at Shangguan Xue blankly.
"Senior Brother Zhuge must be too miserable."
Huo Chunyan gave a light "tsk", "Although I feel like he brought it on himself, looking at him like this makes me feel a little uncomfortable."
Xu Chunniang's eyes fell on the three people in the ring and she spoke slowly.
"The oaths made with the Taoist heart are extremely binding. If you violate them, you will not only have trouble making progress in your cultivation, but you will also suffer from the wavering of the Taoist heart."
