Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Competition
It wasn't until she reached the end of the city that she was desperate to find that there were either demon cultivators or slaves in the Light City, and there was no one who could participate in the competition.
"Could it be that only the Demon Wolf Mercenary Group and the Northern Quarter Moon can be allowed to appear?" Except for them, no one else in this city of light could meet her ideal qualifications.
"What's the appearance?"
A familiar voice came, and Nan Qingxue turned around and found that Xi Youxia was holding a bag of fried chestnuts and was looking at her curiously.
Bei Xianyue and Dongfang Mocheng walked beside her, looking at her with a hint of a smile on the corner of their mouths.
"Why are you here?" Minami Qingxue was a little surprised.
"I'm too tired these days, so I'll go out and relax."
Xi Youxia spread his hands and threw a chestnut away and into his mouth.
"Light snow, what were you just talking about letting us go? You won't want to hurt us again and slip away alone. Xi Youxia frowned slightly, and suddenly looked at her vigilantly.
Hearing him say this, Bei Xianyue and Dongfang Mocheng's faces also sank, and they looked at her with a smile.
"Light snow, what he said isn't true?" Bei Xianyue's voice was cold, as if as long as she dared to say yes, he would strangle her immediately.
Nan Qingxue swallowed her saliva, quickly waved her hand, and smiled wryly: "No, how is it possible, I said that I will discuss with you if I want to go out in the future, if you don't agree, I won't go out." ”
Hearing her say this, several people nodded in satisfaction.
Nan Qingxue let out a long sigh of relief, these people are really not easy to serve.
"And what did you just say to yourself here alone?"
"We'll talk as we go." Nan Qingxue said about the border four, "I took a look, and you are the only ones who can represent Guangcheng in the competition." ”
"It turns out that this is it, you can leave it to us, it just so happens that after the breakthrough, we haven't found someone to practice our hands well."
Xi Youxia pinched his fingers with a "click" sound, looking eager to try.
"Sounds interesting." Dongfang Mocheng smiled meaningfully, put away the folding fan, and glanced at Beixianyue without a trace.
Bei Xianyue frowned slightly and didn't say anything.
Back at the City Lord's Mansion, Nan Qingxue called Liu Chen and asked them to send a few people from the Demon Wolf Mercenary Group to participate.
Liu Chen agreed without thinking about it, and selected a few members with relatively high cultivation.
Soon, the city-states of the south, east, and west were decided.
"City Lord, the brothers have sent news that the city-states participating in this competition have Slaughter City and Twilight Snow City in addition to us."
In the main hall, Liu Chen reported the latest situation.
The south light snow sat in the first place, and the north quarter moon sat on the chair on the right.
Dongfang Mocheng played with the fan in his hand and glanced at Liu Chen casually.
Xie Ting stood next to her, looking at the Fu Xiu book in his hand with relish.
From time to time, they cast curious glances at her.
Sensing their gaze, Nan Qingxue smiled: "Let me introduce to you, this is my apprentice, Xie Ting, Xie Ting, this is the Northern Quarter Moon, this is the West Youxia, and this is the East Mocheng, all of whom are the master's best friends." ”
Xie Ting glanced at them lightly and nodded, which was regarded as a greeting.
After doing all this, she looked down at the book in her hand again, as if everything around her had nothing to do with her.
Everyone present except Liu Chen looked at her with a shocked expression, when did Qingxue have an apprentice!
They were building the Lonely City of Shu before, and they didn't know the situation here.
Now seeing that Nan Qingxue suddenly has an apprentice of the same age, she is a little unresponsive.
And look at this apprentice, his cultivation is still higher than her!
Liu Chen spread his hands, although he was also quite surprised, but thinking that Xie Ting had been coming to Guangcheng before, he was a little mentally prepared.
Their city lord is so strong, there are two divine beasts, and it is not surprising to accept an apprentice at a young age.
"Light snow, how can you do it?" The corner of the moon's eyes jumped.
Xi Youxia was even more jealous: "You and I are obviously about the same age, why can you accept apprentices?" ”
It's not fair!
Only Dongfang Mocheng on the side did not speak, he glanced at Xie Ting thoughtfully, it turned out to be this girl.
The corners of Nan Qingxue's mouth hooked slightly: "You are just jealous." ”
Bei Xianyue and Nishi Youxia glanced at each other, and then they both sighed, well, they admitted, they were really a little jealous.
"Ahem, let's talk about the game first." Dongfang Mocheng coughed lightly, dispelling the sour smell in the air.
"Yes, otherwise people are really angry than people." Xi Youxia hurriedly spoke.
"Isn't there another one?" Nan Qingxue thought of what Liu Chen said before, and opened her mouth in confusion, plus Light City, there are only three cities.
"There is also a city-state that seems to be the venue of the competition, called the ......" Liu Chen frowned slightly, and he couldn't think of it for a while.
"Citrus Cloud City." Xie Ting, who hadn't spoken much, suddenly raised his head and said lightly, "But it's not certain whether the Citrus Cloud City at the venue of today's competition will be a participating city-state." ”
"Why do you say that?"
Nan Qingxue was a little strange, Xie Ting was a person from the Funa Palace, and she should know more than them.
"I can't tell." Xie Ting shook his head.
The corners of Nan Qingxue's mouth twitched, and it was equivalent to not saying anything.
"How many days are left until the race?" Nan Qingxue looked at Liu Chen again, if time was pressing, it would be better for them to set off earlier, although she was a sword cultivator and could resist the sword, but there were many people in the Demon Wolf Mercenary Group who couldn't, so they could only consider walking over.
"There's still a week, and it's an invitation." Liu Chen took a sign from his waist and put it in Nan Qingxue's hand.
Nan Qingxue took a look, this is an ordinary wooden plaque, there is nothing special, there is a word "light" engraved on it.
One week......
Start departing tomorrow to avoid emergencies, and when you arrive at Citrus Cloud City, the time will be about the same.
"Liu Chen, you let the brothers of the competition prepare, we had better be able to set off tomorrow."
"Yes."
They knew Nan Qingxue's thoughts, so naturally they didn't have any opinions.
Nan Qingxue asked Bei Xianyue and them to prepare well, and they also went back to the room to clean up.
The next day, the group set off for Citrus Cloud City.
Along the way, Bei Xianyue didn't talk much.
Nan Qingxue sensed that something was wrong with his emotions, and stepped forward to ask him about his situation: "Xianyue, are you okay?" ”
Bei Xianyue was slightly stunned, and when she saw that it was Nan Qingxue, she shook her head slightly: "It's nothing, maybe I just haven't rested well." ”
"If we're tired, we can stop and take a break." Nan Qingxue knew that he was definitely not for this reason, but he didn't say anything, he didn't want to say, and she didn't want to ask too much.
