(A week later, on the first day of the martial arts conference)

With the morning light bathing in the water town in the south of the Yangtze River, Lu Lingxuan, who felt that his body had basically recovered, pulled Xing Mingming, quietly avoided the Tianjimen disciples who were responsible for taking care of them, and sneaked into Hangzhou City relatively smoothly.

"What is there that you have to do in the city today?" After entering the city gate, Xing Mingming asked Lu Lingxuan a little impatiently.

"Follow me, it'll be there soon." Lu Lingxuan seemed a little excited and didn't care about answering, but just took Xing Mingming's hand and ran to Hefang Street, the most prosperous street in Hangzhou.

It wasn't until the two sat down at a table outside a restaurant that Xing Mingming finally realized that the important thing Lu Lingxuan said was just to enter the city to enjoy the food of Hangzhou.

"When I was a child, I followed my father to Hangzhou several times, and I basically went to the more famous restaurants in Hangzhou. But no matter what kind of delicacies from the mountains and seas, it can't compare to the flower chicken made by this small shop, which makes me look forward to it. Lu Lingxuan said happily as she helped move one of the pairs of chopsticks in front of Xing Mingming.

Xing Mingming looked at Lu Lingxuan's happy expression at the moment, she seemed to be a little eager to say something to Lu Lingxuan, but when the words came to her mouth, she forcibly swallowed them back.

"Yo, brothers, why didn't you go to Lieyangmen today to find a good seat to watch the martial arts conference?" The conversation of the people at the table next to him inadvertently attracted Lu Lingxuan's attention.

"Hey, this Lieyang Gate is not a big sect, how many masters can appreciate their faces in the martial arts conference they organize!" One of them said with a disdainful look on his face.

"Hey, you can't say that, according to one of my relatives who was on an errand in Lieyangmen, Lieyangmen caught a big fish this time." The man who had just sat down whispered mysteriously to the others.

"Heh, with Huang Hua's virtue, I'm afraid that no big fish can save Lieyangmen's current decline." The other put down his chopsticks and chuckled.

"This big fish is said to be Ouyang He, the owner of Yufeng Mountain Villa, who once killed several heads of the martial arts faction in the ghost castle of Yudu, and then absconded to this day. It is said that the head of Huang Hua plans to execute Ouyang He in front of his colleagues at the martial arts conference! Although this person had deliberately lowered his voice, he was still listened to by Lu Lingxuan at the next table.

Before that, in fact, Lu Lingxuan was not told by anyone what happened to Ouyang He after saving her, because Liu Tianxue wanted Lu Lingxuan to recuperate in peace without any worries after discussing with Chu Birou.

However, as soon as she heard that Ouyang He was in trouble, Lu Lingxuan still decided to do her best to rescue him.

So, Lu Lingxuan hurriedly packed the flower chicken he had just made in his arms, and then quickly returned to the camp where everyone in Tianjimen was, preparing to bring the unicorn knife that Ouyang He had left before in case of an emergency.

On the way back to Hangzhou with a knife, Lu Lingxuan and Xing Mingming passed by a slender woman wearing a white veil and a lilac long gauze palace dress on the road.

"Palace Master, it's almost time, we should go to the Burning Sun Gate." Behind the woman, the person who walked up to her with a few gifts from the grocery store and spoke to her turned out to be Lan Yin.

"Don't worry, it's really suffocating me to death after such a long retreat. Come, can you help me see, which of these pairs of earrings is more suitable for me? The woman's eyes revealed a bit of childlike innocence. After they finally decided to buy these three pairs of earrings, the woman still liked these three pairs of earrings along the way, and didn't seem to take the matter of the martial arts conference too seriously.

At the same time, the gate of the Lieyang Gate was already full of people at this time. Under the supervision of the prefect of Hangzhou, the representatives of the various sects of the martial arts have begun to enter the venue one after another, and some of them are still inseparable from each other, and they will definitely stay at the door to say a few words.

"Hehe, these idiots don't know yet, they have entered the stomach pouch of the poisonous snake and it is difficult to get out." On a high tower next to the gate, Bai Lichen said proudly to Han Yi who was standing beside him.

"Our people have all been deployed in the venue, but they are only in charge, and somehow, I always have a vague bad premonition." Han Yi expressed his worries to Bai Lichen with an uneasy face.

"It's okay, since the matter of the Ice Phoenix Valley was resolved, Wang Xiao has already taken the three envoys of wind and thunder towards Yin Mountain, after all, there are still some troublesome people over there who have to be distracted to deal with it." Bai Lichen seemed to have absolute confidence in his next plan, "Except for him, we don't have to worry about the rest of the people." ”

"That'...... Is it still necessary to work with Huang Hua? Someone like him may betray us at any time. Han Yi recalled that he had been instructed by Bai Lichen to give Huang Hua some antidote to the salivary grass, and he immediately felt a little worried about the possible future whistleblowing behavior of Lieyangmen.

"Hehe, Han Yi, I don't think I've ever told you before that there is an antidote to something like ambergris." Bai Lichen's gloomy face showed a faint sneer, and Han Yi quickly understood the deep meaning of his words.

But what the two of them never expected was that among the people who were following them at this moment, there was a person who was too familiar to them to know him well, who was secretly bowing his head and listening to all the conversations between them very patiently.

Not long after, under the instructions of the disciples of the Lieyangmen, the personnel of the various martial arts factions began to walk into the main place where the conference was held, that is, the Lianwuping located in the headquarters of the Lieyangmen.

"The martial arts conference is about to start, please enter the martial arts colleagues!" Under the introduction of a host to the guests, the personnel of various martial arts sects walked into the gate of Lianwuping one after another.

"Qingshan Firmament Palace, uh...... Palace Master Yaoshuang! When the host looked at the roster and was stunned for a moment, and then read out the name with surprise on his face, everyone in the venue immediately began to discuss.

The reason for this is none other than that although the Firmament Palace is a martial arts master-level sect, they rarely participate in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, let alone their palace master who has always maintained a mysterious color. Although there have been all kinds of rumors about her on the rivers and lakes for a long time, in fact, no one has ever seen her style with their own eyes.

So, when Lan Yin guided Yaoshuang, who was wearing a white veil, to enter the venue gracefully and slowly, their group unsurprisingly instantly became the focus of the audience.

After all the invited sects entered the venue, the host was about to announce the start of the martial arts conference under Huang Hua's instructions.

"Wait a minute!" A clear and magnetic voice suddenly came from the gate, and everyone followed the voice, only to see a handsome boy with a dignified appearance and an iron fan, leading a group of followers dressed as disciples of the Wind and Thunder Hall, swaggering in from the gate of Lian Wuping.

"Dare to ask this son, where are you from?" The host looked a little dazed after seeing what they were wearing, because as far as he knew, Bai Lichen had clearly assured Huang Hua that Wang Xiao's people would never appear here at this time.

"For the first time, I officially met with all the seniors of the rivers and lakes, and I came to the meeting on behalf of the king of the Wind Thunder Hall, and I hope that the seniors will give me advice!" With a confident and refreshing smile, Qiu Ying respectfully greeted everyone present.

"Since you are the representative of the Wind Thunder Hall, please take a seat!" At this time, Huang Hua, who had been silently watching everything at the scene, stepped forward and invited Qiu Ying and the others to sit down a little helplessly.

"The second master, what's going on, shouldn't the three envoys of wind and thunder accompany the big boss to Yinshan?" Faced with this unexpected situation, Han Yi seemed anxious and surprised, and he immediately raised his question to Bai Lichen.

"Hmph, it's okay, go as planned!" Although Bai Lichen still felt a little apprehensive after learning that the shadow had appeared, he had to send an arrow at this moment, and he was also prepared for the worst.

Next, after the host announced the start of the martial arts conference, Huang Hua quickly walked onto the high platform facing the martial arts training floor.

"With the mercy of God and the blessing of the ancestors, the people in my Lieyang Sect have gone through a lot of hardships and hardships, and finally caught the murderer who killed the former gate master and the heads of the major factions in the ghost castle of Xudu that day. At this moment, I can let this murderer be corrected on the spot under the joint witness of all my fellow martial artists, and I feel that I am really fortunate to have three lives. After Huang Hua pretended to finish speaking to everyone present, he instructed his subordinates to bring Ouyang He, who was tied up with five flowers, in front of everyone.

"He'er!" Ling Rui and Meng Yan, who were hidden in a corner of the scene, frowned almost at the same time as they saw Ouyang He appear, and tightly grasped the weapons in their respective hands.

"Ladies and gentlemen, everyone knows that when our six major factions besieged Yufeng Mountain Villa and returned, they gave Ouyang He a month to prove his innocence. Now that the month has not yet arrived, and there are still many doubts about the ghost castle case, we are in a hurry to take his life at this time, which is probably not good for the credibility of our major factions, and it will inevitably leave us with untrustworthy words to people with bad intentions! Peng Lei, the head of the Huangshan faction, tried his best to persuade everyone at the scene to let Ouyang He go for the time being.

"Hehe, Master Peng is too worried, there was no Lieyangmen among the six major sects present at that time, so why should Lieyangmen abide by this agreement that they have never participated in?" Tang Xiong, the master of the Tang Sect, stood up and defended Huang Hua.

"What the Tang Sect Master said is very true, and in addition, the Master of this Sect has an important matter to announce to everyone today." As he spoke, Huang Hua picked up an object with a silhouette like a sword from the table, and immediately uncovered the silk cloth on the object, "Now, the Dragon Soul Sword, which symbolizes the supreme martial arts, has entered the hands of my Lieyangmen, if anyone dares to defend this murderer again, it is an enemy of my Lieyangmen, and an enemy of our martial arts righteousness." ”

Huang Hua's slightly arrogant words instantly aroused the dissatisfaction of many martial arts people present, especially the Huangshan faction led by Peng Lei was the most disgusted.

Huang Hua walked up to the position of the central ring of Lian Wuping with the Dragon Soul Sword in hand, and at the same time he began to deliberately provoke Peng Lei, trying to make the Huangshan faction a stepping stone for his neutrality in the martial arts.

Peng Lei couldn't stand Huang Hua's humiliation, and then he jumped into the ring in anger and tried to single out Huang Hua.

Although the Dragon Soul Sword could only exert less than half of its strength in Huang Hua's hands, in the face of Peng Lei, who was not already a top master in martial arts, he could still easily use the Dragon Soul Sword's own strength to defeat him.

Seeing that Peng Lei was knocked out of the ring in less than ten moves, the people of the other sects on the scene suddenly looked at each other, and no one dared to go up.

"If no one has any more objections, then ......" Huang Hua turned around with a sneer, holding his sword to face Ouyang He, who was tied to a wooden frame and looked helpless and godless.

"I said you can't kill her!" At this moment, the silent atmosphere in the venue was suddenly broken by a pleasant female voice from the direction where everyone in the Firmament Palace was.
