Chapter 357: Competition
He Renlong leaned over and looked at the note in Xia Yu's hand. He Renlong didn't have much culture, but he could roughly recognize a few big characters, and there were twelve words written on the note, all of which were commonly used words, and He Renlong recognized them, word by word, and read them:
"On the night of the full moon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the decisive battle will return to the palace of Dewang. ”
As soon as He Renlong finished reading the words on the note, the note snorted and burned, and in the blink of an eye, it burned into a pile of ashes.
"Which god-damn bastard dares to commit murder in the palace, I must find him out, break his body into thousands of pieces, and avenge Duan Bing!" He Renlong shouted angrily.
Xia Yu said: "The one who can use this method must be the Demon Sect." ”
Liang Guodong said: "Wasn't the Demon Sect wiped out by us?"
Xia Yu said: "What we have eliminated is only some small miscellaneous fish in the Demon Sect, and the Demon Slaughter has not yet appeared (shēn). ”
"Demon Tu is demonstrating to us," Chu Chaoyang walked over with an angry look on his face.
Su Yi, Jiang Songling, Sun Qilin, and Wei Chonggu also walked over, looked at Duan Bing's corpse, and frowned.
Jiang Songling said: "Demon Slaughter is challenging us to fight to the death. ”
He Renlong clenched his fists and shouted: "The decisive battle will be the decisive battle, who is afraid of whom!"
Chu Chaoyang said: "The night of the full moon in the Mid-Autumn Festival is less than a month away. ”
Sun Qilin said: "Sect Master Chu, you are really dead-eyed, Demon Tu said that if you launch a decisive battle on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, you must launch a decisive battle on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival? ”
Xia Yu said: "No, the piece of paper just now is the war book of the demon clan, and the demon clan regards the war book very sacred, and will never write lies on the war book." ”
"How do you know?" Wei Chonggu asked casually.
Xia Yu glanced at Wei Chonggu and didn't speak.
Wei Chonggu lowered his head, knowing that he had said the wrong thing, although Xia Yu was young, he was a jack of all trades, and people didn't know about it, he knew it, and he never missed it.
In fact, this is not because Xia Yu is well-informed and knowledgeable, but because Tianji Xing is in Xia Yu's divine sense, holding a thick encyclopedia and a large amount of information, and searching for it at will.
Jiang Songling said: "This demon slaughter is too arrogant, it was agreed that the son of (rì) would fight a decisive battle with us, and the location of the decisive battle was also selected in the palace. ”
Chu Chaoyang said: "We don't have to wait for the Mid-Autumn Festival, we will scatter the people now, pull out the demon slaughter, and let him be destroyed." ”
Xia Yu said: "It's useless, if the Demon Tu hides and doesn't show up, Jizhou is so big, we can't find him at all." ”
And the people began to talk and discuss.
Su Yi raised his palms and said loudly: "Okay, don't make any noise, the soldiers will block, the water will cover the earth, the Demon Sect will fight, we will fight him!"
Duan Bing's death shattered the cheerful atmosphere of the banquet, and no one had the heart to eat and drink anymore, so the banquet ended hastily.
Su Yi left Hengshan Country with the escort team of Anle Country and the people of the four major sects, and returned to Anle Country to discuss the decisive battle with the Demon Slaughter on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Demon Slayer chose the location of the decisive battle in the palace, the palace space is limited, and large-scale battles cannot be carried out, and the large number of people here does not show an advantage.
Xia Yu, Su Yi and the sect masters of the four major sects discussed for a while, and decided that each sect master would select one hundred elite disciples to enter the palace, and then select five hundred disciples to wait outside the palace and obey the dispatch at any time.
Xia Yu and Li Yueran, Dou Xian,
Wen Chou and them, as elite disciples of the Vermilion Bird Sect, all entered the palace.
Xia Yu and Dou Xian and Wen Chou lived in the guard's duty room, and when they woke up, the sky was bright, Xia Yu stretched his waist and stood up, while Dou Xian looked out the window, sighed, and showed a sad face.
"Senior Brother Dou, what's wrong with you?" Xia Yu asked.
Dou Xian said: "Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival on August 15, and the decisive battle (rì) agreed by the Demon Slaughter has arrived. ”
Wen Chou's eyes widened beside him and said, "Senior Brother Dou, you can't be afraid, right?"
Dou Xian said: "I'm not afraid, but I'm a little nervous. ”
Wen Chou waved his hand and said: "What is there to be afraid of, we have been waiting for this day for a long time, tonight we will completely annihilate the demon clan, and return Jizhou to a peaceful and peaceful place." ”
Wen Chou has a stupid and bold heart, and he is not afraid of anything.
Dou Xian and the other disciples are more or less burdened in their hearts, the strength of the demon clan, they have seen it with their own eyes, tonight's battle, who wins and who loses, whether it is life or death, it is difficult to predict.
Xia Yu patted Dou Xian and said: "Senior Brother Dou, it's nothing, martial artists always have to go through a few vicious battles in the process of growing up, tonight is the first vicious battle in our lives, we will definitely break through and climb to the peak of martial arts." ”
Dou Xian looked at Xia Yu and nodded, to be honest, with Xia Yu by the side (shēn), Dou Xian's heart was much relieved.
In the Longling Tomb of Hengshan, if there was no Xia Yu, Dou Xian would have died ten times or eight times, and Xia Yu was their protector.
Xia Yu said: "Let's not stay in this house, go out for a walk." ”
Xia Yu, Dou Xian, and Wen Chou came out of the house and walked around the palace.
This royal palace took a huge amount of manpower and material resources, and gathered the wisdom of thousands of craftsmen to build it in one (shēn), which is resplendent and luxurious.
Ordinary people looked at the palace from afar, they were all criminals (jìn), Xia Yu and they could live in this palace all day long, which was also an honor.
Xia Yu, Dou Xian, and Wen Chou walked all the way to the back garden, and suddenly, someone called sweetly:
"Brother Yu!"
Xia Yuhui (shēn) saw that it was Su Xue'er.
Su Yi made Su Xue'er's (shēn) world public, and then, canonized Su Xue'er as a princess, enjoyed the same treatment as her own daughter, and lived in the palace.
Su Xue'er took a few palace maids out for a walk, and happened to meet Xia Yu in the garden, she was very happy, and beckoned to Xia Yu to let Xia Yu pass.
Dou Xian and Wen Chou both knew that Xia Yu and Su Xue'er had a close relationship, and they didn't want to be the eye-catching light bulb, so they said: "Xia Yu, let's go over there and take a look and don't disturb you and Xue'er." ”
With that, Dou Xian and Wen Chou left.
Xia Yu walked over to Su Xue'er and said, "Xue'er, are you used to living in this palace?"
"It's okay, it's just that I can't see Brother Yu every day, and I want to make people anxious," Su Xue'er stretched out her slender jade hand and held Xia Yu's palm.
Su Xue'er made such an intimate move, and several palace maids next to her were watching, Xia Yu was a little embarrassed.
In front of the enemy, Xia Yu was decisive and imposing. In front of the woman, Xia Yu was squirming and shy.
Su Xue'er is very open, she doesn't care about other people's eyes, she has to express her (qíng) sense openly.
"Let's go, let's go to the gazebo over there and sit for a while," Su Xue'er took Xia Yu's hand and walked towards the pavilion deep in the garden.
Su Xue'er and Xia Yu sat down in the pavilion, and the palace maid brought tea, snacks, melons, fruits, pears and dates.
Su Xue'er picked up a piece of crystal clear melon and said, "This melon is transported from Qingzhou, it's delicious, you can taste it." ”
Xia Yu took a bite of the melon, his eyebrows fluttered, and he said, "Well, it's indeed delicious, you can eat a piece too." ”
Su Xue'er said: "I live in the palace these days, and I often eat these melons, so you should eat them, eat more." ”
This melon tastes really good, Xia Yu divided it by two and ate a piece, Su Xue'er picked up another piece and handed it to him.
Xia Yu ate five or six melons in a row, and the juice flowed down the corners of her mouth, Su Xueer took out a handkerchief and wiped Xia Yu's mouth.
At this time, a group of people walked into the garden, this group of people was the elite guards transferred into the palace by Su Yi, and the person headed by them was named Sun Rong, who was Su Yi's nephew, and was recultivated in the ninth phase of the Qiwu Realm, known as "the first person in the guard army".
Su Yi appreciated Sun Rong very much, and said in the casual chat that she would marry Su Xue'er to Sun Rong, and after the decisive battle with the Demon Sect, she would let Sun Rong officially propose marriage.
Sun Rong quietly met Su Xue'er, Su Xue'er was as beautiful as a flower, and she immediately fascinated Sun Rong, Sun Rong was very happy, and regarded Su Xue'er as a daughter-in-law who had never passed the door in his heart.
Now, Su Xue'er wiped Xia Yu's mouth with a handkerchief, and smiled, Lang (qíng) concubine, very sweet, and the anger in Sun Rong's heart jumped up.
Sun Rong was angry, strode forward, and walked towards the pavilion, Xia Yu and Su Xue'er glanced up, inexplicably.
"Who are you?" asked Su Xue'er.
Sun Rong suppressed his anger, clasped his fists and saluted, and said, "Princess, below is Sun Rong, the general of the Guards. ”
Su Xue'er sighed and said, "You are my third uncle's nephew?"
"Yes, in terms of kinship, the current king is the uncle who is below," Sun Rong said.
Su Xue'er looked at Sun Rong and asked, "General Sun, is there anything wrong with you?"
Sun Rong turned his gaze to Xia Yu and said, "I don't know who this person who is sitting with the princess?"
Xia Yu understood that Sun Rong was here for himself, and it was because he had a close relationship with Su Xue'er.
Xia Yu was neither humble nor arrogant, and said: "I am Xia Yu, a disciple of the Vermilion Bird Sect. ”
A bright light flashed in Sun Rong's eyes, and he said: "You are Xia Yu, I have heard that there is a so-called genius disciple in the four major sects, named Xia Yu, I thought that this Xia Yu has three heads and six arms, how powerful he is, but it turns out that it is nothing more than that." ”
Sun Rong was unabashedly provocative, Su Xue'er was unhappy, frowned, and said, "General Sun, what do you mean by this?!"
Sun Rong said: "Princess, I don't mean anything, I just want to compete with this genius disciple." ”
After Sun Rong (shēn), the guards shouted, "Okay, let's try." ”
Sun Rong is known as the "first genius of the Guardian Army", Xia Yu is the first genius of the four major sects, and the two geniuses compete to be the first, this kind of thing, it makes people excited when they think about it.
Xia Yu was a human being, and some cities were unwilling to compete with Sun Rong for this moment, so he said: "General Sun, the big war is coming, let's save some effort and deal with the demon sect elements at night." ”
Sun Rong sneered and said, "Let's just have a try, how much effort can we take?
Sun Rong looked at Xia Yu and laughed, and several of the guards behind (shēn) also laughed, and the laughter was full of mockery.
