Chapter 136 The Seventh Sword, Does Xu Taiping Remember Me?
Hearing this, Dugu Qingxiao was shocked and immediately sent a message to Zhao Linglong on the other side of the jade slip:
"Junior sister, what exactly is going on? Can you explain it more clearly?"
Soon, Zhao Linglong's voice was once again transmitted from the jade slip into Dugu Qingxiao's mind——
"Second Senior Brother, you...if you don't believe it...you can watch the next scene of Wenjian...and see...see if Mei Junhao...will still ask Jian Taiping..."
"In addition, Senior Sister... Senior Sister, she..."
When she said this, Zhao Linglong's voice stopped abruptly.
"Junior sister, junior sister, what's wrong with you?"
Just as Dugu Qingxiao was nervously asking Zhao Linglong on the other side of the jade slip, Senior Sister Jiang Zhi's voice suddenly came from the other side of the Jade Slip - "Junior Brother, Junior Sister just used her True Essence to transmit sound without permission and fell asleep again.
It’s over, but it’s nothing serious.”
"By the way, what did she just say to you with the jade slip?"
Dugu Qingxiao breathed a sigh of relief after hearing Jiang Zhi's voice.
But just when he was about to tell Jiang Zhi what Zhao Linglong had just told him, the voice of Mei Junhao, a disciple of the Liuwu Sect, suddenly rang out on the sword level below——
"Liuwumen disciple Mei Junhao, Wenjian, Qingxuanzong, Xu Taiping!"
As soon as these words came out, even Dugu Qingxiao, who had experienced many lives and deaths, couldn't help but feel a chill running down his back, and secretly said:
"How could Linglong know that Mei Junhao would definitely ask Jian Taiping?!"
At this moment, senior sister Jiang Zhi's voice once again reached Dugu Qingxiao's mind——
"Junior brother, what happened to you over there?"
After a moment of hesitation, Dugu Qingxiao picked up the jade slip and sent a message to Jiang Zhi:
"It's nothing, senior sister. It's fine, junior sister. She just asked me about the situation of Taiping Wenjian, but she fell into a coma before she finished speaking."
After saying this, Dugu Qingxiao put away the jade slips, and without looking back, she sent a message to the head Zhao Qian who had returned to the wing:
"Master, can you think of a way to convey peace and make him give up this sword quest?"
…
"Give up asking for swords?"
Xu Taiping, who was walking towards Jianping, suddenly heard a message from the leader Zhao Qian in his mind.
Xu Taiping stopped and turned back to look at the stands where the Qingxuan Sect disciples were.
When he saw the head Zhao Qian and Dugu Qingxiao looking at him nervously, Xu Taiping murmured:
"It seems that the headmaster and the second senior brother have realized that there is indeed something fishy about this sword question."
"I just don't know if they think there is something wrong with me, or if there is something wrong with my opponents."
Xu Taiping was not surprised that the headmaster and his second senior brother wanted to stop the sword competition.
At this time, Elder Fu Yuan's urging voice suddenly came from the sword platform - "Xu Taiping, are you willing to take the sword?"
Xu Taiping turned his head and without looking back, he sent a message to the leader Zhao Qian in his heart:
"Master, if you can trust this disciple, you and your second senior brother can watch this disciple's sword question without any worries and don't ask anything else."
As he spoke, Xu Taiping jumped up and landed lightly on Jianping.
Immediately, while walking towards the center of Jianping, he continued to transmit the message to the leader Zhao Qian:
"Just being a disciple means asking the sword for them all."
Xu Taiping, who is familiar with the rules of the Sword Leader Association, knows very well that unless he voluntarily withdraws from the Sword Leader Association, or there is conclusive evidence to prove that he is actually a demon cultivator, even the Lord of the Nine Palaces will not be able to invite him to take the sword.
Ping.
After saying this, Xu Taiping stood still, let out a long breath, and then said:
"Qingxuanzong, Xu Taiping, take the sword!"
…
"The winner of this sword competition is Qingxuanzong Xu Taiping!"
After half a stick of incense, the fifth sword question ended.
In the voice of Elder Fu Yuan announcing the results of the competition, Xu Taiping, who was covered in blood, bit open the gourd of Zangxian Brewing with his mouth, and then drank it as if no one else was watching in the astonished eyes of the audience.
A few big mouthfuls.
"In the fifth game of Questioning the Sword, I still didn't use higher true energy, but I still won."
In the stands of Guangling Pavilion, looking at Xu Taiping who was drinking with his head on Jianping, Guangling Pavilion Ji Ye murmured to himself with a somewhat dull expression.
Mu Yuchen on the side looked solemn and said:
"There is something wrong with this question of swordsmanship."
Mu Yun nodded and said:
"These people seem to have colluded. They all chose Wenjian Xu Taiping. They must have planned it in advance."
Mu Yuchen guessed:
"Could it be that several major immortal houses suspected that Xu Taiping was having an affair with Jiuyuan, but could not provide any evidence, so they wanted to use these monks to force Xu Taiping to reveal his flaws?"
Mu Yun shook his head and said:
"It's not impossible."
Upon hearing this, Chu Tiancheng immediately retorted:
"Judging from the few sword questionings just now, it is clear that the people in question are these monks who asked Brother Taiping about swordsmanship, not Brother Taiping!"
