sunrise sun rose and set. Yue Tianxiang stayed in the small wooden house without eating or drinking for three days and three nights. He really couldn't accept the fact that Phiona was a demonic witch. In this small wooden house, she used to be so beautiful, so understanding, so kind and obedient, but after half a month, she became a demonic witch. This made Yue Tianxiang's heart ache. Everything that was once beautiful was just a flash in the pan. Why did she lie to him? Did she not know that feelings were the most hurtful weapon?
Yue Tianxiang finally walked out of the small wooden house. He wanted to go to Taibai Mountain to find Qiu Yihan and ask her if she was the demoness that everyone was talking about. However, before he could walk out of the gate of the Loyalty Alliance, he was stopped by his father. Yue Buping did not want others to see his son interacting with the people of the Demon Cult during the Martial Arts Circle Convention. This would directly affect his participation in the Martial Arts Circle Alliance Leader election. Under his father's forceful obstruction, Yue Tianxiang had no choice but to temporarily give up on the idea of going to Taibai Mountain to find Qiu Yihan.
"Tianxiang, follow me and the Sect Master to the Martial Arts Circle Convention later!”Yue Buping held a sword in his hand and walked into the courtyard majestically. Today was the day of the Martial Arts Circle Convention's new Alliance Master election. As someone who was very confident in becoming the new Alliance Master, he was exceptionally happy.
Upon hearing his father's words, Yue Tianxiang, who was practicing his sword in the courtyard, slowly sheathed his sword and said with a faint smile,"Father, Tianxiang doesn't want to go!"
"I know that you've been in a bad mood recently, but you have to participate in the Martial Arts Circle Convention. Go back to your room and change your clothes.”Yue Buping looked at his son seriously. For such a big occasion today, no matter what, he had to bring his most outstanding son.
Seeing his father's stern gaze, Yue Tianxiang could only nod.""Alright, Tianxiang will be here in a while!" After saying that, he turned around and went back to his room to change.
Looking at Yue Tianxiang's departing figure, Yue Buping shook his head and sighed."Feelings are really harmful!"
"Brother Yue, what are you waiting for? Should we set off? When she heard that there was a performance before the conference, Yue 'er was still clamoring to watch it!”Situ Yuan shouted and brought his precious daughter to the courtyard.
"Master and disciple, there's no rush. I'll ask Tianxiang to change. We'll set off in a while! Why don't we go to the hall and have a cup of tea first?”Yue Buping smiled and called Situ Yuan to the hall. Situ Yue, who was following behind them, shouted unhappily,"Tianxiang is so troublesome. If we're late, we won't be able to watch the show!”
Yue Buping and Situ Yuan were sitting in the hall sipping tea. Situ Yue was anxiously stomping her feet at the entrance of the hall. After a while, Yue Tianxiang came to the hall in a purple robe and a sword at his waist. Seeing Yue Tianxiang appear, Situ Yue shouted happily,"You're finally here!" He turned to Yue Buping and said,"Uncle Yue, Tianxiang is here. Let's go!"”
Yue Buping and Situ Yuan smiled brightly. They put down the teacup in their hands, stood up, and walked out of the hall. Yue Tianxiang and Situ Yue followed closely behind.
Situ Yue stared at Yue Tianxiang,""Brother Yue, you're so handsome today!”
Yue Tianxiang lowered his head in embarrassment and said,"Stop talking nonsense. I'm still the same!”
"It's different. You're handsome today, especially handsome!”Situ Yue pouted and raised her voice.
Yue Tianxiang was not in the mood to joke with Situ Yue. He ran to the door with a serious face. Seeing Yue Tianxiang striding forward, Situ Yuejiao shouted, Brother Yue, wait for me!" She gently floated in front of Yue Tianxiang.
"Hehe, I've caught up to you!" Situ Yue seemed to have endless words to say.
Yue Tianxiang glared at her helplessly and wanted to shake her off quickly. However, Situ Yue had already cleverly held onto his arm. Yue Tianxiang wanted to break free, but he was afraid that Yue 'er would be angry and complain to his master and uncle, so he could only keep a straight face and let her hold his arm as they came to the door.
Seeing Yue Tianxiang and Situ Yue's arm linked together, Situ Yuan laughed out loud,""A grown woman can't be kept! Brother Yue, look, Yue 'er is so attached to Tianxiang. Once the martial arts tournament is over, let's arrange their marriage!”
Yue Buping, who was sitting on the horse's back, smiled brightly."Alright, we'll do as you say!”
Hearing the conversation between his father and Situ Yuan, Yue Tianxiang hurriedly broke free from Situ Yue's arm and jumped onto the horse's back.
Situ Yue blushed and giggled.""Father, you're making fun of me again!"
"So my daughter can be shy too!" Situ Yuan laughed out loud. Alright, hurry up and get on the horse. If you're any later, you really won't be able to watch the show!”
As soon as she heard the program, Situ Yue quickly got on the horse's back, whipped it, and sped down the mountain.
Yue Buping and Situ Yuan looked at each other and smiled before leaving as well. Yue Tianxiang galloped, and the black shadow under him chased after them like the wind.
About six to eight hours later, the four of them arrived at a wilderness in the east of Chang 'an City. Colorful flags fluttered in the air, and gongs and drums were loud. Many martial arts disciples had already gathered on the field. In the middle of the arena, there was a stage that was as tall as two people. On the stage sat the leaders of the various large sects. The current leader of the martial arts world, Master Xing Wen, was also among them. When they saw Yue Buping and Situ Yuan arrive, they all stood up to welcome them.
"Benefactors, please take a seat!" Master Xing Wen smiled with narrowed eyes.”
After Yue Buping and Situ Yuan greeted the sect leaders of the various large sects, they followed Master Xing Wen to sit on his left and right. Yue Tianxiang and Situ Yue stood behind Yue Buping. The two of them were not qualified to sit.
Situ Yue looked around and saw that there were only disciples and gongs and drums from various sects. There was no show. She muttered in disappointment,"Looks like I missed it!"
When Master Xingwen heard Situ Yue's muttering, he smiled and said,""Miss, what did you miss?"
Situ Yuan laughed loudly and said," Master Xingwen, please excuse me. She is my daughter, Situ Yue. This is her first time participating in the Martial Arts Circle Convention!”
"Oh, so you are the daughter of the master and disciple. I have long heard that the master and disciple have a daughter who is eloquent and courageous.”Master Xing Wen chuckled.
Upon hearing Master Xing Wen's words, all the sect leaders turned to look at Situ Yue. Situ Yue giggled and hurriedly cupped her fists at the sect leaders."I am Situ Yue. Greetings, Grandmaster Xingwen and the sect masters!”
Everyone was full of praise for the beautiful and clever Situ Yue. Situ Yuan was overjoyed and laughed non-stop.
Seeing that all the sect leaders liked her, Situ Yue's nervousness was gone. She smiled and said,"Master Xingwen, are there any performances today?”
Master Xingwen was confused by Situ Yue's question.""Miss, what do you mean?"
"Is there a show?"
"Of course, there will be a martial arts competition between the various large sects in a while, and they will also elect the next alliance master!”
Situ Yue sighed in disappointment."Another martial arts competition. Besides martial arts competitions, don't you know how to prepare other programs? Boring!”
Master Xingwen looked around and slowly said,""It's time. Why hasn't the Huashan Sect arrived yet?”
Yue Buping turned to look at Yue Tianxiang.”
Yue Tianxiang hurriedly went forward and bowed to Master Xingwen and the other sect masters."I personally handed the invitation to the Huashan Sect Master. They should be coming!”
Just as everyone was feeling anxious, a red sedan carried by four men of different appearances floated over from afar. Seeing this sedan chair, everyone stood up in surprise. The sedan chair slowly landed in front of everyone. The four burly men bowed respectfully to the sedan chair and said," Palace Master, we're here." One of them stepped forward and lifted the curtain. Everyone on the stage opened their eyes wide and waited for this mysterious figure to appear.
Yue Tianxiang was filled with doubts. All the sects that sent out invitations had arrived except for the Huashan Sect. Who could this mysterious figure with a style be? As the curtain of the palanquin was lifted, a woman in a red dress and a red veil stood in front of everyone. Everyone present exclaimed, and some people directly laughed out loud."Whose bride is this? Haha!" There was an uproar.
Master Xingwen slowly sat down and coughed."Don't make a ruckus. The Martial Arts Circle Convention is about to begin.”
"Leave?" The woman in red laughed coldly. Bengong is here to participate in this Martial Arts Circle Convention!”
When everyone heard the woman in red's words, they began to discuss. They did not know that there was such a person in the martial arts world.
Master Xingwen sized up the red-clothed woman and narrowed his eyes."Forgive this old monk for being blind, but may I know which sect this young lady is from? Do you have an invitation to the Martial Arts Circle Convention?"
The lady in red smiled faintly." I'm the Palace Master of Phoenix Palace. I don't have an invitation!"”
Everyone felt unfamiliar when they heard about Phoenix Palace. Even Master Xingwen, who had lived for nearly 200 years, had never heard of this name before. Master Xing Wen exclaimed," I've lived in this world for nearly two hundred years, but I've never heard of the existence of the Phoenix Palace. May I know when and where your sect was built?"”
Leng Qingxiang raised her voice." My Phoenix Palace will be built at the beginning of this month. Don't underestimate me because I'm a woman. Since I can come here, I have the ability to compete for the position of the leader of the martial arts world!”
The moment Leng Qingxiang finished speaking, there was an uproar. Some people were even laughing so hard that they were swaying back and forth. A young lady actually dared to speak so arrogantly that she wanted to participate in the alliance leader of the martial arts world? One had to know that the election for the leader of the martial arts world was held once every five years. Moreover, the person who was elected had to be unrivaled in martial arts and had an excellent character.
When Master Xing Wen and the sect leaders on the stage saw the uproar below the stage, they began to whisper to each other and discuss the background of Phoenix Palace. Just as everyone was discussing animatedly, a deafening drumbeat rang out. It turned out that the drummer had played the opening movement of the martial arts tournament on time.
Seeing the drum beat, Master Xing Wen called out to all the sects that had come to participate in the meeting and sat in the areas that had been divided beforehand. When Leng Qingxiang saw that everyone had a seat but no one cared about her, she was very angry. However, when she thought about how she had come without an invitation, these people were naturally unhappy. It did not matter if they did not have a seat. As long as she could disrupt the Martial Arts Circle Convention, she would have achieved her goal.?
Seeing that everyone else had already taken their seats, Master Xing Wen began to announce the candidates for the leader of the martial arts world. Yue Buping was first, and he was competing with the Wudang Sect Leader and the Huashan Sect Leader. The Huashan Sect Leader was not present at that time, so it was considered as a forfeit. Now, it was the competition between Yue Buping and the Wudang Sect Leader, Li Feng. In order to be elected as the next leader of the martial arts world, there would naturally be a lot of martial arts competitions. Only the winner would be able to convince everyone to embrace him and sit on the throne of the leader of the martial arts world.
After Yue Buping and Li Feng cupped their fists and bowed to each other, they took out their weapons. Both of them used long swords, and their sword techniques were equally matched. The people present were shocked. Situ Yue even shouted at the side," Uncle Yue, defeat him, defeat him!"”
Seeing that Li Feng's swordsmanship was not bad, Yue Tianxiang broke out in a cold sweat for his father. It was not important whether he was the leader of the martial arts world. What was important was his father's safety. A few years ago, someone was beaten to death by his opponent in the martial arts world.
Four hours had passed, and the two of them were unable to tell who was better. Some people were yawning as they watched. Just as everyone was getting tired of this long competition, Li Feng's face suddenly turned red. He felt as if his entire body was being burned by fire, and it was difficult for him to concentrate. However, he still desperately waved the long sword in his hand and fought with Yue Buping. Because of Li Feng's discomfort, Yue Buping stabbed Li Feng's shoulder not long after. Li Feng, who had fallen to the ground, wanted to get up and continue fighting, but he had no strength at all.
Seeing Li Feng fall under Yue Buping's sword, everyone began to cheer and celebrate. Situ Yue happily pulled Yue Tianxiang and ran to Yue Buping's side, laughing and saying,"Uncle Yue, you're amazing!" Seeing his opponent fall to the ground and unable to stand up, Yue Buping was also very happy. He sheathed his sword and waved at the people present with a smile. Just as everyone was cheering for Yue Buping's victory, Li Feng, who was lying on the ground, spat out a mouthful of blood and stopped breathing. Upon seeing Li Feng's death, the Wudang Sect disciples swarmed forward and surrounded Yue Buping and his son. Yue Buping looked at Li Feng, who was lying on the ground with a pale face, in confusion. He did not expect his sword to take Li Feng's life. The audience was in chaos. Situ Yue had already drawn her sword and started fighting with the Wudang Sect disciples. Situ Yuan, who was afraid that his daughter would be injured, also jumped off the stage and joined the chaotic battle.
Master Xingwen shouted from the stage," Everyone, stop! Death and injury are inevitable in a martial arts competition. I am also very sad about Sect Leader Li's death. However, since Yue Buping has won, he should be the current leader of the martial arts world. Stop messing around!"”
Hearing Master Xing Wen's words, everyone stopped fighting. The Wudang Sect disciples lay in front of Li Feng's corpse and cried bitterly. Just as they were crying, Leng Qingxiang, who had slept in the sedan chair, flew to Li Feng's corpse. She looked at Li Feng's corpse and laughed loudly."A bunch of idiots. Why don't you see how your sect master died? All you know is to cry!”
The Wudang disciples stopped crying and looked up at Leng Qingxiang. A handsome young disciple said,""What do you mean?"
"Your sect leader's face is green, which means that he has been poisoned. Think about it. With your Wudang Sect's sword skills, how could you lose to the Loyalty Alliance?”After Leng Qingxiang finished speaking, she disappeared into the crowd in a flash and quietly sat in the sedan chair, waiting to see the next good show.
After hearing Leng Qingxiang's words, the Wudang disciples carefully examined Li Feng's corpse. They discovered that black blood was oozing out of the wound where Yue Buping stabbed the Sect Leader. This discovery made them believe that the Sect Leader had been poisoned by Yue Buping. Immediately, all the Wudang disciples 'eyes spewed fire as they shouted and drew their swords to force Yue Buping and his son…
