Ye Qiu, Fang Wuxian and the others came to the agreed place of the duel, and the scene was already very lively. I don't know who spread the news, but people from all over the world came to see this duel.

The streets are made of white limestone cut into four corners. Along with the temple-style buildings and the wide waterway, it is a huge arena that stands in front of the transfer gate. The duel between Ye Qiu and Long Yijian happened to be held here. But......

"A cup of freshly fried popcorn costs only ten dollars, only ten dollars!"

"Cold, stout, beer ......!"

At the entrance to the arena were a number of merchants and others, many of whom were lined up in neat rows, each of them tearing their throats and shouting to sell suspicious-looking food to the long lines of spectators.

“…… W-What the hell is going on......"

Ye Qiu was taken aback by the scene in front of him, so he had to ask Fang Wuxian beside him.

Where is this duel, it's clearly to celebrate some kind of festival, right? Ye Qiu really wondered if there were any other activities here today!

"That.... I don't know ....... very well."

"Only the people of the Blue Sky Family know about this!"

"The person who sold the ticket should also be from the Blue Sky family, is there something wrong? How did it become such a lively festival event?"

"If this is ......"

"Could it be that Long Yijian's real purpose is to make money?"

"It shouldn't be, no matter what, the patriarch shouldn't be that kind of person, it should be Mr. Yamato's doing, he is our family's accountant......."

In front of Fang Wuxian, who was smiling "ahaha", Ye Qiu's whole person felt very powerless.

How could things turn out like this, Ye Qiu could only complain helplessly in his heart!

"Or ....... Let's run away together, find a place where there is no one and plow the fields together, forget .......!"

"I don't have anything to do with it......"

Fang Wuxian said with an expression of indifference.

"But if we run away now, you will be called a coward by everyone, and you will run away!"

"Ah, what a hateful ......."

"Oh, this is your own sin. Who told you to promise the patriarch a duel yourself. Yes...... Mr. Yamato. ”

When he raised his head, he immediately saw a fat man who was no one more unsuitable for wearing the blue of the Blue Sky Family than him, and walked here while shaking his fat belly.

"Wuwu, thank you very much, Ye Qiu!"

He said to Ye Qiu with a smile on his round face.

"Thanks to Ye Qiu's help, we have made a lot of money! Speaking of which, it would be great if this kind of activity came once a month!"

"Who would do such a thing!"

"Come on, come on, let's go to the lounge and get ready, this side ......"

Ye Qiu's whole body weakly followed behind the man who began to walk slowly. At this time, Ye Qiu had already decided in his heart that it didn't matter so much, just let it go.

The lounge is a small room facing the arena. After Yamato took the two of them to the entrance, he said that there were still betting odds to be adjusted, and Ye Qiu couldn't raise the strength to scold him. The auditorium seemed to be full, and there were faint cheers coming into the lounge.

When only Ye Qiu and Fang Wuxian were left, Fang Wuxian grabbed Ye Qiu's wrist with both hands with a serious face.

“…… Even if it is a one-hit victory, there is still danger as long as you take a heavy attack head-on. In particular, there are still many unknowns about the patriarch's sword, and if you feel that it is not good, you will surrender immediately, you know? If you mess around like last time, I will never spare you!"

Ye Qiu could see that Fang Wuxian was really worried about himself, and at the same time, he recognized Long Yijian's strength very much!

"You're still worried about Long Yijian!"

Ye Qiu had a smile on his face and patted Fang Wuxian's shoulder hard.

The arena announced the start of the showdown, mixed with cheers like thunder in the distance. At the same time, Ye Qiu pulled out the sword crossed on his back a little, and after deliberately making a "bang" sound, he retracted it into the scabbard. Then he walked towards the square circle of light that looked like it had been cut off.

The stepped auditoriums that surround the amphitheater are packed with people. There must be more than 1,000 people. In the front row, you can see the grocery store owner and Clarke, shouting dangerous words like "kill him" and "kill him".

Ye Qiu stopped after walking to the center of the arena. Immediately after, a dark blue figure appeared from the opposite lounge. The cheers from the audience became louder.

Normally, the uniform of the Blue Sky Family that Long Yijian wears is a white background with a blue pattern, but now he is wearing a short coat with a white color scheme on a blue background that is completely opposite. Although he was barely wearing any protective gear like Ye Qiu, the huge pure white cross shield held on his left hand was particularly eye-catching.

It seems that the sword should be tucked away on the inside of the shield, because at the top of the shield, the hilt of the sword, which also has the shape of a cross, can be seen protruding.

Long Yijian walked up to Ye Qiu easily, looked at the surrounding audience, and couldn't help but smile bitterly and said:

"I'm really sorry, Ye Qiu. I didn't know it was going to be like this. ”

"Well, I can collect the payment fee."

"No...... After the race, you will be a member of our family. I'll consider this showdown as one of my missions. ”

Long Yijian put away his smile after speaking, and at the same time, his brass-colored pupils exuded an overwhelming momentum. Ye Qiu couldn't help but feel timid and took half a step back. The distance between the two people was obviously not close, but Ye Qiu could still really feel the other party's momentum that could only be called murderous.

Ye Qiu switched his consciousness to the battle mode, and received the gaze of Xilong's sword from the front. The deafening cheers slowly moved away from him, and he didn't know if the sensory organs had begun to speed up, Ye Qiu even felt that the colors around him had changed subtly.

After taking his eyes off himself, Long Yijian stepped back about ten meters or so, and then he raised his right hand.

The countdown has begun. The cheers around him had diminished to the sound of small ocean waves.

Blood flow throughout the body gradually increases. Using all his strength to suppress his urge to fight, Ye Qiu faced an opponent who had to do his best to have a chance to win from the beginning.

Long Yijian pulled the slender sword out of the shield and put it in a battle position.

His posture of facing Ye Qiu's side with his shield facing Ye Qiu, only exposing his upper body, looked quite relaxed and natural, and it seemed that he didn't use any extra strength at all. Ye Qiuli knew that trying to predict the enemy's first move would only increase his doubts, so he made up his mind to attack with all his strength at the beginning.
