The surroundings were deathly silent. Only the mountain wind whistled, blowing their clothes and hair.
"Why?" Lu Yuntian looked at Hai Qi in disbelief, his eyes filled with doubt.
Hai Qi smiled." No matter how your palm technique or sword technique changes, you can only attack at one point. As long as I catch it, I can break it. It's that simple."”
Lu Yuntian smiled bitterly." The winner is king and the loser is a bandit. Since you've won, why don't you make your move?"”
"You can't kill him." Yan Daihe flew up to the arena after shouting. She was dressed in light green clothes, like a lotus leaf on water after rain, not stained by dust.
Lu Yuntian frowned." What are you doing here? This is our business. Don't worry about it."”
Yan Daihe laughed bitterly." It's about you guys? Hehe, it must be because of that Yu guy again. Don't think that I don't know anything."”She sneered and said to Haiqi,""If you want to kill me, then kill me together…I don't want to live in this world sad."
Seeing her like this, Yan Mo sighed helplessly and said,"Dai He, feelings can't be forced. Why do you have to do this?”
Yan Daihe did not say anything with tears in her eyes. She looked at Lu Yuntian in a daze, feeling extremely uncomfortable.
Lu Yuntian's face was filled with guilt and coldness as he asked,""Haiqi, are you going to kill him or not?”
Haiqi shook his head." If I say I won't kill you, then I won't kill you. This is a life. I still owe you one." He then put away his sword and tied it back to his waist.
" If you don't kill me," Lu Yuntian said coldly." If you have the chance to do so in the future, don't regret it if you die in my hands."”
"In that case, I will await your arrival…" After saying that, Haiqi walked down the stage. Yu Xiaoxiao jogged forward and greeted him with a smile,""En, not bad. You've improved again.”
Sun Yi and Ah Ru also rushed forward. Their faces were filled with joy, but they smiled without saying a word.
Lu Yuntian looked at their happy faces and felt uncomfortable. He took a deep breath and turned to leave silently. Yan Daihe hesitated for a moment before following them. For a moment, the empty arena was left with bloodstains. The scene was very desolate. When the wind blew, the smell of blood rushed into his nose, making him feel like he was about to die.
Night had long fallen, and the hazy evening mist pressed down from the sky. Mo Qingfeng was in a daze, shrouded in this picturesque scene, extremely ethereal.
At some point in time, black smoke rose from the roof of a house in the distance. It became thicker and thicker, breaking through the thin white fog. Specks of fire slowly floated up from the roof, and then the fire soared into the sky. It was red, reflecting the faint blood color in the surroundings.
"Not good, the Inner Academy is on fire…" At this moment, a person cried out in alarm. Immediately after, many houses were also lit up with raging flames. The ground turned from pale red to blood red, and the crackling sounds of the fire could be heard continuously.
Everyone was shocked. Looking ahead, two old men suddenly rushed over from the depths of the fire. Their figures gradually became clear. They saw many sword wounds on their bodies, and their clothes were red. However, their faces did not care. They rushed directly to Yan Mo and said while panting,"Tower Lord, the second degree box has been snatched.”
These words shocked all the elders on the spot. They thought to themselves that the second degree box was in their hands, so how could it be snatched away by others?
These two people were Yan Mo's personal protectors, and their strength was only second to Yan Mo. They were not by his side today because they wanted to protect the second degree box. However, they did not expect that the other party was so powerful that he would snatch the second degree box after seriously injuring the two of them.
Yan Mo frowned and his face darkened. He said sternly,""Who did it?"
One of them said," I couldn't see clearly with my face covered, but I can say for sure that it was Duan Qiankun. We didn't even have time to call out to him before he was seriously injured and took the box away."”
Yan Mo had thought about it for a long time. Even though he was on guard, he did not expect the other party to be so powerful and skillful.
He knew that Duan Qiankun and the others wouldn't leave without getting anything good. He thought that with the two guardians guarding the box, it would be difficult for him to get it, so he came to watch the battle. However, it was not the case. Not only was Duan Qiankun powerful, but he was also unexpectedly bold.
"The two of you rest and recuperate first. Old Lu, you bring the other disciples to extinguish the fire. The other elders will follow me down the mountain and see if we can catch up.”After Yan Mo finished speaking, he immediately moved. Lu Butong also led the disciples to extinguish the fire. Liu Xueyan and the Liu brothers quickly went forward to support the two elders and greeted them with concern.
"Grandpa, are you alright?" Liu Xueyan asked with concern.
An elder replied," I'm fine. I, Liu Tiancheng, am very lucky. How about you? How was the competition? Did you win the championship this year?"”
Liu Xueyan lowered her head and said,"Grandfather, I've disappointed you…" Not only did he lose, but he also..."
" If you lose, so be it. It's not a big deal," Liu Tiancheng said,""Victory and defeat are common in a military. Don't be too angry. At most, you can win it back next year.”
"En, right, then who won?”He looked at the Liu brothers and asked,""Is it one of you two?”
The two of them shook their heads and smiled bitterly at the same time."How can we defeat Senior Sister Liu?”
Liu Tiancheng snorted coldly and said,"Even Liu Clan's Pass won't be able to train you two idiots to become powerful."”
The two men's faces turned red after hearing this. An old man beside them said angrily,"Old man Liu, don't be arrogant. When one of them can defeat Xue Yan, I think you should prepare a good dowry.”
Liu Tiancheng sneered." Bullsh * t. Do those two stupid pigs think they're worthy of marrying my Xueyan?" It was better for them to practice their cultivation techniques properly so that they wouldn't be beaten up every day.”
Liu Guan ignored him and said,"If Xueyan loses, do you agree to this marriage or not?"”
" Afraid of you?" Liu Tiancheng gestured,""Xueyan, compete with them now. Before the competition ends today, you can make this Old Man Liu give up and stop having delusions about you.”
"I..." Liu Xueyan stuttered and was unable to speak for a long time.
Liu Guguan said from the side," Xueyan, say something. Even if you lose, you don't have to be afraid. My boy knows how to take care of the fairer sex. No matter who he marries, he won't treat you unfairly."”
Liu Xueyan hesitated for a moment before she suddenly mustered up all her courage and said,""I'm married…"
This sentence was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, shocking the two elders so much that their mouths could almost be stuffed with dozens of frogs. They could not close their mouths for a long time. Liu Tiancheng grabbed her shoulders tightly and said in disbelief,""You're married? Don't scare me. I'm old and can't take the blow.”
Liu Xueyan was silent for a long time before she sighed and said slowly,"" Just now, his name is Haiqi, the champion of this year's..."
Liu Tiancheng let go of his black and thin hand and took two steps back. He scolded,""You brat, why are you so insensible? Even if he won, there's no need for you to be so crazy. Are you crazy?”
Liu Xueyan was speechless for a long time. Liu Tiancheng looked at her for a while and said,""Yiren, go and find that bastard Lao Zihai for me. I want to see what tricks he can play.”
"Don't tell others about your family's dirty laundry. Old Man Liu, if you have nothing else to do, you can go back first.”
Liu Jiaguan shook his head helplessly. He wanted to say something, but he didn't. All the words he wanted to say turned into a long sigh. With Liu Yidong's help, he limped away helplessly.
..........
Hai Qi was carrying a wooden bucket, sweating profusely as he hurried back and forth. He was fighting the fire with the others when he suddenly heard someone calling him from behind. He couldn't help but stop and wipe away his sweat. He looked back and saw Liu Yiren looking at him with red eyes, as if full of hatred. He was puzzled. He thought to himself that he had never interacted with this person, let alone become enemies with him. Could it be that he had offended him?
"You called me?" he asked.
"Is there a second Sea Serpent here?" Liu Yiren asked coldly.”
" No," Hatch replied." What did you call me for? Is there anything?"”
"It's not me who's looking for you, it's Protector Liu.”His tone was full of dissatisfaction as he turned around and left. Although Hai Qi didn't understand the reason, he could only follow to see what was going on. So she put down the wooden bucket and followed him.
Yu Xiaoxiao, who was standing nearby, suddenly asked,"Hatch, where are you going?"
" I don't know either," Haiqi laughed."I heard that the protector is calling for me. I'll be right back…"
"I'll go too…" As she spoke, Yu Xiaoxiao jogged to his side and held his hand.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the square where the competition was held. When they arrived at the VIP seats, they saw an old man dressed in black beside Liu Xue Yan. He had an eagle nose and sharp eyes. He frowned as he carefully sized up Hai Qi.
Haiqi had seen this person when the fire started, but he didn't know why he called him. He didn't say anything when he saw him, so he asked first,""Are you Protector Liu?"
" That's right, I'm Liu Tiancheng," the man said in a neutral tone.
"Why are you looking for me?”
Liu Tiancheng suddenly said angrily," You didn't kneel down when you saw your father-in-law, and you actually asked me what happened? Xueyan's father passed away early, so I'm her father and mother. I'm in charge of all the small matters of marriage. Why don't you know any manners? Did no one teach you?”
Hatch was confused and asked,""What does Senior Sister Liu's marriage have to do with me?”
Liu Tiancheng said angrily,""Did you get first place, so you don't put everyone in your eyes anymore? Do you think our Xueyan isn't worthy of you?”As he spoke, he took a step forward. As long as the other party's answer was not satisfactory, he planned to use his martial arts to subdue them.
Haiqi was even more confused, but he was shocked by his aura. He couldn't help but take half a step back and asked,""What are you talking about? I don't understand at all. Also, when did I say that I wanted to marry her?”
" Look, look," Liu Tiancheng saw that Hai Qi didn't seem to understand and was furious. He glared at Liu Xueyan and said,""Falling flowers have feelings for each other, flowing water is heartless. Tell me, what kind of love-struck fool are you?”
"Haiqi, do you think I'm not worthy of you? Or do you just want to play with me?" Liu Xueyan said angrily.”
" When did I ever think I wasn't good enough for you? I can't even catch up to you, let alone play with you. Can you be more clear? This isn't how you force a marriage, right? Don't let me die in a daze, okay?"”
Liu Xueyan took a deep breath and tried her best to calm down her anger,""Back then, I said that if anyone could defeat Zhao Chen, I would marry him. Everyone heard it clearly. Are you deaf?”
Haiqi looked at Yu Xiaoxiao and found that she was even more confused. He asked,"Xiao Xiao, did you hear that?"
Little did they know that the two of them were immersed in each other's embrace at that time, so they wouldn't pay attention to this. Yu Xiaoxiao shook her head and said,"I didn't hear it."
