Chapter 24: The Hairpin Flower Festival (5)

On the second day, the hairpin flower conference that attracted the attention of thousands of people finally officially kicked off.

It is rumored that the original body of the hairpin flower conference was originally the own competition of the seven peaks of the Shaoyang faction. A thousand years ago, the Shaoyang faction did not have seven peaks like one like today, but divided their territories like scattered sand.

Shaoyang has been passed down to the generation of Benyang leaders five hundred years ago, and finally the seven peaks are united and branched, working together to resist the foreign enemy, the Nanshan Xuanyuan faction. At that time, the power of the Xuanyuan faction was in full swing, with Nanshan as the center, expanding in all directions, engulfing dozens of large and small immortal cultivation sects.

And their irresistible momentum finally suffered a big loss in front of Shaoyang.

Perhaps no one expected that Shaoyang, who was in danger and constantly infighting, would be able to unite and be solid at a critical moment.

The Xuanyuan faction naturally failed to get what they wanted, and Shaoyang also suffered heavy losses, and both sides were greatly injured. It was also from that time that the feud between Xuanyuan and Shaoyang fell, and it has not been released until today.

The two sides fell into the Cold War phase.

In order to restore Shaoyang's prestige in the past, he simply announced that the battle of the seven peaks of Shaoyang would no longer be closed, and the world's immortal cultivators would be invited to challenge together, and the winner could put forward a request to Shaoyang.

He also invited several respected elders from Dianjing Valley to come and judge the victory or defeat of the competition.

Gradually, the reputation of the Seven Peaks competition spread, and everyone who heard it came to challenge it with great interest. In the five-year competition, Shaoyang has always won more and lost less, and the competition of Qifeng has also become an opportunity for many big factions in the world to compete and communicate.

Since then, Shaoyang has regained his prestige, united from top to bottom, and the seven peaks are one, and there is no longer any dispute. The original contest was renamed the Hairpin Flower Conference, which evolved into today's competition of young elite disciples of the five major factions, and the winner can have a peony flower on his chest.

However, the Xuanyuan faction has been in a slump since that attack on Shaoyang, and has never expanded its territory again.

So far, the hairpin flower conference has been held hundreds of times, and there are all factions of winners, especially the Floating Jade Island and Lize Palace, which have developed rapidly in the past two years.

The winner of the last conference came from Floating Jade Island, so this time the disciples of Floating Jade Island can skip the first round of the competition and directly enter the second test.

At this time, the martial arts arena at the top of Shaoyang Peak has been cleaned up, and the seven huge rings are surrounded by various colors of silk, fluttering in the wind, which is very spectacular.

The heads of the five major factions sat on the chairs of the Taishi outside the venue, and talked in a low voice from time to time. The others were fine, only the head of the Xuanyuan faction was silent, and no one looked at them with their nostrils facing the sky. Chu Lei knew their consistent virtues, and he didn't bother with them, but only talked with the heads of the other three factions with a smile.

The empty space under the ring was full of young disciples who participated in the conference this time. The other factions are quite ordinary, only the Lize Palace, all of which have green robes and masks, which attract many young disciples who have never seen the world to wait and see.

The open space in the outer circle is where the disciples and outsiders are watching. Since the disciples of the Shaoyang Sect Min Zi have not yet reached the age of competition, they can only serve as spectators, and together with the disciples of other factions, they try to stretch their necks and look inside. From time to time, there was laughter.

"Hey, look at that girl in the pink dress! It's from Dotting Valley, right? It's rare, and there will be beauties in Dianjing Valley! ”

"Phew, a dog's mouth can't spit out ivory! You'll know which woman is pretty! ”

"You're not looking yet? Oh...... You don't look at beauties, you look at beautiful men......"

"Die! Be careful to let the boss hear, cut your tongue! ”

…………

……

Xuanji heard that many people behind her were talking about which woman was more beautiful and which man was more handsome, so she couldn't help but look up and ask Du Minxing: "Senior brother, who do you think is good-looking?" ”

Du Minxing smiled bitterly, "Don't learn from those boring people. We immortal cultivators, our appearance is ranked the second. You might as well ask me who I think is the best. ”

"Who does the senior brother think is the most powerful?" Zhong Minyan's ears were sharp, and when he heard them talking, he immediately joined in the fun.

"Hmm......" Du Minxing pondered for a while, couldn't help but look at the two figures in the infield, one red and one white, and said: "Last time, Pianpian and Yuning on Floating Jade Island were really amazing. It's just that he was still young at the time and lacked strength, so he lost to his senior brother in the same class. I think there is a lot of hope for the two of them to win this time. ”

"Where, where? What is Pianpian Yuning? I'm going to see it too! Linglong held a large number of snacks in her hand and squeezed in fiercely, just hearing what Du Minxing said, she immediately became interested.

Zhong Minyan snatched a packet of spiced beef from her hand, and said with a smile while dodging the delicate flower fist embroidered legs: "Well, they are the two most conspicuous among the disciples on Fuyu Island, one red and one white, the handsome men and the handsome women." The combination of their two swords is really powerful and beautiful. It's just that the people who didn't have the floating jade island for the first time today won't be able to see them until tomorrow! ”

Linglong was on the railing, squinted for a long time, and finally pouted: "It's nothing to look at." If you want to say that it is good-looking, no one can compare to the lady on Floating Jade Island. ”

Xuanjiqi said: "What lady? ”

Zhong Minyan handed her a bag of broad beans, and said: "I asked you to go to Fuyu Island to play that year, but you were too lazy to go, of course you don't know." Madame is the Lady of the East, the wife of the owner of the Oriental Island. But what her name is or where she comes from, no one knows. But her beauty is really gorgeous, and Linglong and I have been back since then, and I still can't forget it. The owner of the Oriental Island is really blessed to have such a beautiful woman as his wife. ”

Hearing him say so well, Xuanji couldn't help but start yearning, and also learned from Linglong on the railing, stretched her neck to look, and asked again: "Then is the lady of the island owner here at this conference?" Where is it? ”

Zhong Minyan pointed to the place where the head of the house was sitting, "It's next to the owner of the Eastern Island." Ah, she has a veil over her head this time...... That's right, a beauty like her, if she doesn't cover her face, it will cause panic. ”

Xuanji looked over, and sure enough, she saw a fair woman wearing a white veil sitting next to Dongfang Qingqi.

She wore a light purple tunic with a long skirt and long black silk hair hanging down her shoulders. I didn't see her show her face or make any movements, but just looking at it like this, I couldn't take my eyes off it, and my heart was warm and itchy, and I wanted to look at her a few more times.

Linglong whispered in her ear: "Stunned? Alas, you will be stunned just wearing a veil, and it is not in vain that last time Xiao Liuzi and I were dumbfounded, and almost smashed other people's dishes while eating. ”

Xuanji would only hope for a gust of wind to blow her veil away and see what it looked like.

was looking at it in a daze, and suddenly saw a person in the infield walking over, a white robe and long boots, broad shoulders and a thin waist, it was a young man. He walked to the place where the head of the house was, said a few words, and turned to leave, but the lady of the East suddenly beckoned to him, as if to ask him to pass.

The man seemed to hesitate for a moment, but he couldn't resist her constant beckoning, and finally went over and stood beside her, not moving.

"Who's that man?" Xuanji was tired of seeing it, so she turned her head and stuffed a handful of spiced beans into her mouth to rattle, and talked to Linglong by biting her ear.

"It's a big steward on Floating Jade Island, I saw him last time I went to the island, and he looks pretty good! It's just that there is a scar on the face, which is a little scary. He is not a disciple of Floating Jade Island, he doesn't know martial arts, he usually takes care of daily life for Floating Jade Island, I heard that he is very capable! ”

When Linglong talked about Xingtou, he simply poured out all the gossip about "celebrities" he heard from everywhere.

"See that? Wearing black clothes with white edges, that person is a disciple of Dianjing Valley, and he couldn't beat Pian Pian and Yuning at the last hairpin flower conference, so he cried bitterly on the spot! ”

"Ah, and that! The bastards of the Xuanyuan faction, they couldn't beat us in the last competition, so they put a secret weapon. As a result, he was caught red-handed by his father, and he was still stubborn! I didn't expect to be able to compete this year. The Xuanyuan faction really doesn't have a good thing! ”

Linglong viciously, gritting her teeth.

As soon as the words fell, he heard the thunderous drums around the martial arts arena, like thousands of waves rushing towards his face, wave after wave, almost shaking people's hearts out of his chest.

The crowd immediately became excited, because everyone knew that the hairpin flower conference had officially begun.
