Being able to become the commander-in-chief of the Yan Kingdom's West Route Army at a young age and being named Lingyun Hou, Qiu Yu was naturally very scheming. When he agreed to the challenge, he also put forward a condition, that is, he would only compete with young people of the same generation. After all, as he said,
The more years you practice, the deeper your skills will be, so for the sake of fairness, the age of your opponent must be limited.
Young Master Ying is a young talent from the Qin State. He is not very old. He is only twenty-eight years old. He meets the requirements. The King of Qin said without any hesitation: "Ling Yunhou's words are reasonable. According to what you said, we will arrange a meeting in the near future."
A young cultivator is competing with you to learn skills."
Now that King Qin agreed, the pressure in Qiu Yu's heart has been relieved a lot. If the age difference is not much different, I also have a chance to win. After all, I am also in the middle stage of Fusion Soul. I'm afraid where will he come from? With such an idea, he said in a deep voice: "I am happy to accompany you.
!”
This battle was inevitable, and King Qin felt a lot more relaxed about it. Otherwise, ever since he learned the news that his country's generals had suffered heavy losses, he always felt like a huge stone weighing on his heart. It was very uncomfortable. Now he finally has a chance to make a comeback.
Let him feel relieved.
Obviously, King Qin had great confidence in his country's Ying Gongzi and felt that he would win without a doubt. His face softened and he praised him: "Ling Yunhou is really happy. Let's compete in the gladiatorial arena in the city tomorrow morning."
Qiu Yu nodded, "Follow His Majesty's arrangements."
King Qin waved his hand and said in an imposing manner: "It's okay, you can go back first."
Qiu Yu bowed and saluted: "I take my leave." Under the gaze of all the civil and military officials, he turned and walked towards the door, his steps steady, his expression calm, and he looked very calm, as if nothing had happened.
Many officials of the Qin State felt that this man was an anomaly. Perhaps a newborn calf was not afraid of tigers. Only the ignorant were fearless. However, no matter how you put it, his performance made them look at him with admiration.
When Qiu Yu returned to his residence, he stood in front of the window, looking at the blooming flowers in the yard, as if admiring the scenery, but in fact, he was thinking secretly that the battle that was about to begin might be a trap, and it might be more dangerous than good!
As if peeking into his mind, Xiao Jiu, who was in the sea of consciousness, sat in the pavilion and nodded gently in agreement, "Heroes see the same thing. Looking at King Qin's insidious and cunning look, I also feel that you will face a cultivator."
As a very tall young man, the road ahead will be bumpy, and I think you will suffer a lot."
Close friends also saw it. It was obvious that King Qin had no good intentions because Qiu Yu's subordinates had severely injured Hu Cheng and others. With his brows furrowed, Qiu Yu felt a little unhappy. The king of a country also wanted to protect his shortcomings. Didn't he know who it was?
The mistake came first.
Xiao Jiu smiled and said: "Anyway, King Qin feels that he has lost face, so he must deal with you."
"Then what should I do?" Qiu Yu is a person who has never played his cards according to common sense. He suddenly thought, "No matter what, I might as well grease my feet and fly back to the Yan Kingdom with the members of the National Guard to see what King Qin can do."
What can I do?"
I thought this was a good idea, but I was a little complacent. Unexpectedly, Xiaojiu curled her lips and said angrily: "Childish idea, do you think you can leave Qin? Just dream."
Qiu Yu was stunned, then guessed it, and said with a straight face: "You mean the King of Qin has ordered people to monitor us?"
"That's natural. I'm afraid every move is under his control..."
While they were communicating, a figure came quietly outside the door and said in a voice as thin as a gossamer: "Master Marquis, I have something to report."
The voice of the words was extremely low, no more than the buzz of a mosquito, but it reached Qiu Yu's ears very clearly. Such ability was definitely beyond the reach of others, leaving him stunned. Xiao Jiu reminded him: "Li Yanlin is here.
."
Qiu Yu suddenly realized it, but did not respond. He waved his sleeves directly, and the spiritual energy surged over. The door opened and he saw Li Yanlin standing at the door. He came in in a flash, and the door closed immediately.
.
"Greetings to the Marquis." Li Yanlin stopped indoors and saluted respectfully.
"No need to be polite, what happened?" Qiu Yu asked quickly.
"Back to the Marquis, several unidentified masters appeared around the location, hiding in the big trees outside. They seem to be watching us."
A look of surprise flashed in Qiu Yu's eyes. It came so quickly. As Xiaojiu expected, King Qin had already ordered the masters in the palace to guard this place. It was impossible to leave quietly. He nodded and said: "I know.
Yes, these people should be masters of the Qin State. They are probably afraid that I will leave without saying goodbye, so they are waiting here."
As an old eunuch who had served the late emperor for many years, Li Yanlin was good at observing words and expressions. He noticed the solemn look on Marquis Lingyun's face. Sensing something was wrong, he whispered: "Is it possible that the Marquis has something to worry about? I am willing to go to the mountains of swords and seas of fire to relieve your worries."
This old man was loyal, which made Qiu Yu quite satisfied, so he smiled bitterly and said: "This matter is not something you can solve. The Qin State has sent powerful characters to challenge me, and the battle will begin tomorrow. I have no idea in my heart."
Bottom, so I’m a little irritable.”
Li Yanlin's face showed a look of surprise, and he said hurriedly: "How could this happen? The Marquis has a body of gold and is extremely noble. How can he duel with Qin masters like ordinary warriors? It's too ridiculous."
Qiu Yu sighed and said helplessly: "We injured the general of Qin last time, thus laying the foundation for disaster. The King of Qin felt that it had lost the dignity of his country, so he held a grudge and insisted on taking this opportunity to punish me in disguise.
"
Knowing the whole story, Li Yanlin fell to his knees on the ground and said with shame: "It's all the slave's fault. Those two guys should not have been hit so hard that the Marquis was implicated and put in danger. The old slave is guilty of this."
If I deserve death, please ask the Marquis to tie me up and send me to the palace to be punished, so that this fight can be avoided."
"What are you doing? I don't blame you. Get up quickly." Qiu Yu quickly bent down to help the old man up, but unexpectedly, the old man was like an extremely heavy sculpture, as if connected to the ground and motionless at all.
"This old slave is guilty. As long as I can get Lord Marquis to be safe, I am willing to bear the punishment of being cut into pieces with a thousand cuts. Even if I die, I will have no regrets." Because of his purification, Li Yanlin's high-pitched voice sounded strange, but he said these words out loud.
, but also with a firm determination to die.
I originally thought that eunuchs were neither male nor female, had some shortcomings, and were not very righteous people. But now Qiu Yu was impressed and felt that they were too particular. He said hurriedly: "It's useless, your death can't change it."
I am here, Lord, and I am fine. The duel with the masters of Qin is inevitable. Now I order you to get up immediately."
Unable to disobey the Marquis's order, Li Yanlin had no choice but to say: "Old slave, I obey." He then stood up, his eyes still full of worry, "But Qin will definitely send top experts to the battle tomorrow, and I'm afraid the Marquis will be in danger.
ah."
In front of his subordinates, Qiu Yu couldn't be too timid. A determined look flashed in his eyes and he said solemnly: "There is no other way. I can only go to Tiger Mountain knowing that there are tigers in the mountain."
Li Yanlin pondered for a moment, and then suggested: "How about this? I dare to compete with the Marquis and act as a sparring partner first, so I can be prepared."
