Ji Yun's eyes were bright and he said with great passion, "In this case, let's take advantage of the opportunity and have one last competition. I'm afraid I won't have a chance in the future!"
"What do you mean by the last scene? It's not like I won't come back. What's going on with you today? It's a little weird!" Lu Chen looked at Ji Yun who was a little weird in surprise.
Ji Yun looked indifferent and said: "Nothing?"
"I have to prepare some things when I go back later. I won't compete with you today. After all, this experience is not as easy as before!" Lu Chen said with a smile. He had competed with Ji Yun several times, and every time he was on point.
However, his strength was able to improve rapidly, and it was also thanks to Ji Yun, a good friend. Day after day, the relationship between the two became deeper and deeper.
Ji Yun said coldly: "Lu Chen, can you promise me something?"
"Tell me about it?" Lu Chen was startled, then smiled.
Ji Yun took a deep breath and said: "If one day we become enemies, as opponents, I hope you will not hold back and go all out!"
"What are you talking about, Ji Yun, are you worried about something?" Lu Chen stared at Ji Yun, who was acting weird today, and suddenly said in a deep voice.
Ji Yun turned to look at the misty snow-capped mountains in the distance, his eyes as deep as the sea, and sighed: "It's nothing, I just feel that sometimes, I really wish we weren't friends!"
"What nonsense are you talking about? You look gloomy all day long. Can you smile more? Tang Xuan, this girl, has been relying on you a lot recently. This girl is quite good, but you must seize the opportunity! I have always regarded you as a confidant. I hope you can
You also have me as a friend in your heart!" Lu Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, stop being sensational. It's getting late. Go back and get ready quickly. You'll have to rush down the mountain early tomorrow morning. I wish you success." Seeing Lu Chen's serious expression, Ji Yun was silent for a moment, with a stern face.
He forced out a smile.
Lu Chen joked: "Well, that's right. Why do you have such a sullen face all the time? If you smile more, you'll be fine!" He smiled, patted Lu Chen on the shoulder, and then left calmly.
Ji Yun looked at Lu Chen's back and shook his head secretly: "Lu Chen, you are a person who values friendship too much. Sooner or later, you will suffer a big loss!"
On the second day, Lu Chen took some clothes, daily necessities, a soft sword and another heavy sword and set out, arriving at the Suo Jianfeng Hall.
In the main hall, Shangguan Qingyun, the sect leader and many important figures were sitting there, seemingly waiting for a long time. In addition, there was a group of people standing under the main hall, all of whom were disciples of the Sword Sect in regular uniforms, forty of them.
Two of the leading three are acquaintances of Lu Chen, Murong Ziyun, Han Wenqing, and Teng Qinglei. They are all proud figures of the younger generation of the Sword Sect. For this mission, so many elite disciples were dispatched. It can be seen that
How much the sect leader valued Jia Tianpeng.
"Disciple Lu Chen meets the sect master!" Lu Chen walked straight into the hall, cupped his hands and said.
Murong Xuan was sitting above the main hall, exuding an aura of being in a high position, and his majestic eyes swept across the main hall.
All the Sword Sect disciples said loudly: "Very good, you are all here! Let me tell you briefly, this mission is extraordinary. This afternoon, you will escort my friend Jia Tianpeng to leave Qingzhou. His
Your status is very special, and you will definitely encounter a lot of troubles along the way. You all need to work together to complete this mission, and you will be rewarded based on your merits. I have discussed with many elders, and the itinerary for this journey will be headed by Lu Chen, Murong
Ziyun, Han Wenqing, and Teng Qinglei are assisting. Remember, don’t worry about other things!”
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at Lu Chen, who looked a little astonished. There was a commotion immediately, with jealousy, envy, and so on.
How could Lu Chen be so favored by the sect master when he was just a newcomer? Many disciples couldn't figure it out.
"Sect Master, disciple, is there something unclear?" At this moment, Teng Qinglei, the core disciple below, suddenly interrupted.
"Teng Qinglei, don't cause trouble!" Zhao Canghai, the leader of the White Tiger Academy, shouted. Teng Qinglei is his disciple of the White Tiger Academy. If he dares to question the sect leader's decision in front of so many people, he will be severely punished.
The sudden sound made many people in the hall look down at the tall and rough-looking Tengqing Lei.
"It's okay to just say it if you have anything to say!" Murong Xuan said in a majestic tone.
Teng Qinglei pointed at Lu Chen with a cold face and said: "Lu Chen has only been with our Liuyun Sword Sect for less than half a year. He lacks qualifications. How can he be the leader of this mission? The disciples are not convinced!"
He, Teng Qinglei, grew up in the Sword Sect and was a core disciple. Looking at the entire Sword Sect, he was also a man of the hour among the younger generation. As a peerless genius, he naturally has his arrogance. His status, status and qualifications are in front of him.
He was far superior to Lu Chen, so how could he be convinced if he was asked to be led by a new man?
Murong Xuan smiled and said: "Then what do you think we should do?"
"If you want to be convinced by me, it's very simple. If Lu Chen wins, he will be qualified to lead me! But if he loses, he will be under the jurisdiction of me, Teng Qinglei." Teng Qinglei.
He said in a rough voice and spoke so readily, obviously he is a straight-tempered person.
Murong Ziyun said displeasedly: "Sect Master, the mission is imminent. It is not advisable to delay. Don't listen to Teng Qinglei's nonsense here. Although Lu Chen has only been in the Sword Sect for a short time, he was able to defeat Liu Chun of the White Tiger Academy and even communicated with Junior Brother Su.
The tie is enough to show his strength. Moreover, I went down the mountain with him for training some time ago and I saw that he is steady and has rich experience in the world. He is qualified to lead this mission, and we are also willing to be under his jurisdiction!"
Teng Qinglei looked at Murong Ziyun in surprise. When did the senior sister, who always had a noble temperament, start speaking for a newcomer?
Could it be that what Junior Brother Su said is true?
"If Lu Chen doesn't even dare to accept my challenge, what qualifications does he have to lead us? Does it mean that if he encounters danger while escorting others, does he still need my protection?" Teng Qinglei said scornfully, being subjected to a
As a core disciple, he would definitely not be happy with the newcomer taking charge.
"Lu Chen, what do you think?" Murong Xuan looked at the silent
Lu Chen.
Lu Chen glanced at Teng Qinglei, who looked arrogant next to him, and said, "Disciple is willing to accept the challenge!" Since the sect leader valued him so much, of course he couldn't back down, and he had to dare to show his strength when it was time to step forward.
"Humph, I'm just waiting for your words!" Teng Qinglei snorted coldly, full of fighting spirit.
Murong Xuan smiled and said: "In that case, then your company will have a competition in this hall, and it will end as soon as the point is reached, so as not to hurt your harmony!"
Hearing what the sect master said, the disciples in the hall stepped back one after another, leaving an open space for Lu Chen and the two of them. They looked at the two of them expectantly. One was the peerless genius ranked fourth on the Heavenly Sword Ranking, and the other was
They are the most popular newcomers. It can be said that they are competing against each other. Who will have the upper hand?
Teng Qinglei held a slender curved scimitar and came to the front of Lu Chen. He licked his thick lips lightly and said contemptuously: "Lu Chen, this is the first time I see you in person. I have been outside before.
I have just returned to the sect recently, and I have heard everywhere that an amazing genius has appeared in Qinglongyuan. When I saw you today, I also think you are not very good!"
Lu Chen took out the soft sword he carried with him, handed the other items to Han Wenqing aside, and laughed loudly: "You are Teng Qinglei, the peerless genius ranked fourth on the Heavenly Sword List. I heard that your sword skills are very powerful.
I have never had the opportunity to see him, but today I have the opportunity to learn from him, so Brother Teng must be merciful!"
Although most of the disciples in Liuyun Sword Sect are practicing swordsmanship, the sect does not stipulate that other disciples cannot learn other weapons. This Teng Qinglei has taken another path and has practiced a very special weapon since he was a child.
The terrifying sword technique is called "Blood Moon Scimitar"! He is very famous in the sword sect. Teng Qinglei can rely on this sword technique to rank fourth in the Heavenly Sword List, which shows how powerful he is.
"Huh, don't worry. I'll get it. There's a saying that's a bit harsh. There are no tigers in the mountains, but monkeys are the kings. I've been training in the mountains for more than half a year, and rarely come back to the sect. I've heard everywhere lately that you, a newcomer, are so popular that you're almost ahead of the rest of us.
You are an old man. But do you think that you can do whatever you want just because you are on equal terms with Su Xingbai? Today I am going to let you understand, don’t think that all disciples of the Sword Sect are losers. As a newcomer, you also need to have some self-awareness!”
Qing Lei pulled out the curved scimitar in his hand, circled the field twice, and suddenly pointed at Lu Chen and shouted loudly.
Lu Chen gently stroked the flexible sword and laughed harmoniously: "Brother Teng, don't you have a lot of waste?"
"Boy, your tone is serious, take the knife first!" Upon hearing this, Teng Qinglei kicked the ground with the sole of his foot, and rushed towards him like a beast. The scimitar in his hand drew an arc in the air at high speed, with a sharp whistle.
Cut towards Lu Chen.
Brushing, almost in the blink of an eye, with a flash of cold light, the blade was in front of Lu Chen's eyebrows.
"What a swift and fierce sword technique!" Lu Chen was secretly shocked. He slipped the ball of his foot and put his nose against the blade to avoid it.
Hissing and dodging, the soft sword in his hand shook rapidly, like a willow branch and it was drawn towards the opponent like lightning.
Teng Qinglei narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his wrist, and quickly raised the sword and slapped it. A light force came, and with a "ding" sound, the soft sword was instantly knocked away.
