Chapter 228: Go to War!
Jiang Ming and Qian Lei chatted from time to time, and the things they said also involved all aspects, even Jiang Ming didn't know why, he didn't have the slightest vigilance against the current Qian Lei, he was really like an old friend who hadn't seen him for a long time.
As a Xuanyin body, Jiang Ming, after the secret of his physique was exposed, if he wanted to walk in the outside world before he had a strong enough ability to protect himself, he couldn't show his true identity, and although Qian Lei didn't have this trouble, but as a reincarnated body, he also faced other tribulations, perhaps it was precisely because of this kind of tribulation that Jiang Ming also had some sympathy for Qian Lei's mentality.
Jiang Ming even thought in his heart that if he could have the opportunity to help Qian Lei, he would never mind helping him.
"Whew!"
Suddenly, a sound of breaking wind sounded, and Jiang Ming's divine consciousness stretched all around this inn all the time, and he immediately sensed that an aurora was shooting towards him.
At this moment, Wang Qi and several others also sensed something, and the next moment they saw an aurora at the window flying in through the wooden window.
Jiang Ming's eyes sank, and he suddenly reached out of his palm and grabbed the aurora in his hand, this was a sword-shaped hidden weapon, and there was a blank paper letter on the sharp blade of the hidden weapon.
When he was talking, such a hidden weapon suddenly flew in, Wang Qi and the others were somewhat surprised, and Qian Lei stood up directly from his seat and swept near the window to check, but he didn't see any suspicious figures.
Jiang Ming glanced at everyone, and then took down the letter on the blade of the hidden weapon and opened it.
"Looking forward to fighting with you!"
The simple five words were written on a blank piece of paper, and the name of the signature shocked everyone.
Xiang Hao!
This name appeared in the signature of the sign, and everyone present already understood it when they saw this name.
Jiang Ming sighed bitterly in his heart, he knew that Xiang Hao would definitely come to the door after the martial arts competition, but he didn't expect this moment to come so quickly.
The competition had just ended because of the revelation of Situ Feng's plan, and Xiang Hao directly issued such a challenge, which can be seen that Xiang Hao was very eager to fight with Jiang Ming.
"It seems that there are quite a few hands that want to challenge you." Qian Lei said lightly after seeing the name of the place where the payment was made.
Not many people know that Xiang Hao is Yang Ming Body, but Xiang Hao has a great reputation in today's cultivation world.
Among the younger generation in the world, people like Qian Lei and Xiang Hao are among the few who can be compared with Jiang Ming.
"Brother Qian, if you have nothing to do, let's go and have a look, right?" Jiang Ming smiled at Qian Lei.
Hearing this, Wang Qi and Xiaoyu were suddenly shocked, hearing what Jiang Ming meant by this, was he going to war?
"Are you really going?" Wang Qi exclaimed.
It's not that she is afraid that Jiang Ming will lose to Xiang Hao, but now that Situ Feng is still hiding in Wanyan City and waiting for the opportunity to snatch the remaining half of the Huoyun Lotus in the hands of the Wang family, if Jiang Ming goes to fight again at this time, she is afraid that she will not be able to cope with it when she faces Situ Feng at that time.
After all, that Xiang Hao is not an ordinary person, even Jiang Ming doesn't dare to say that he is better than him, if Jiang Ming is hurt in the competition, it will be powerless to deal with Situ Feng at that time.
"It's okay, I'm in my own measure." Jiang Ming turned his head to look at Wang Qi and comforted him softly.
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Ming turned his head to look at Xiao Yu again, and ordered: "You go to Wang's house to bring a message for me......" After saying that, Xiao Yu shook his head for a while and left directly.
Then, Jiang Ming gently patted Wang Qi's shoulder, signaling that she didn't have to worry, and then the three of them sat down again and continued to chat.
Although Jiang Ming was showing a bland appearance, Wang Qi was always at ease, if it was an ordinary challenger, forget it, the other party was the successor of the Yang Ming body, and they would have to deal with a Situ Feng of the Spirit Saint Realm later, thinking of these Wang Qi was a little restless, but she also knew that Jiang Ming was not that impulsive person, since he was not panicked, Wang Qi didn't have anything to say.
Half an hour later, Xiaoyu came back from the Wang family, and the message entrusted by Jiang Ming to the Wang family had been brought, and the content of the message was nothing, just let the people of the Wang family mobilize the city defenders to guard outside the martial arts arena and not let people enter at will.
Because he had to pay attention to Situ Feng's movements at all times, it was impossible for Jiang Ming to leave Wanyan City to fight Xiang Hao, and if he wanted to compete in Wanyan City, the best place would be the martial arts arena.
There is the protection of the formation in the martial arts arena, and when the formation is activated, even the people in the early stage of the Spirit Saint can't sense it, Jiang Ming doesn't have to worry about his identity being exposed, and he can use his means to his heart's content.
No flying in the air or large-scale fights are allowed in Wanyan City, this is a general matter as an iron rule.
In the past, if there were cultivators who wanted to fight, they would choose to duel in the martial arts arena, which was the only place in the city where fighting was allowed, and as long as both sides of the competition agreed, no one would care if they fought to the death in it.
It is obviously the best place to conduct a duel there, and the current defenders of the city are temporarily led by Wang Fu, the lord of the Wang family, because of the killing of the city lord, as long as Wang Fu explains the situation and asks him to dispatch the troops of the defending army to guard outside the martial arts arena, this can also rule out the possibility of being disturbed.
After Xiao Yu came back, he continued to wait for a while, and then Jiang Ming and the four of them set off directly in the direction of the martial arts field.
When a few people came to the front of the martial arts arena, there were already a lot of people gathered here.
Most of the people gathered here were there to see the excitement, but there were also a large number of defenders here.
Outsiders didn't know that Jiang Ming was going to duel with Xiang Hao, and the reason why so many guest officers had gathered here was entirely because of the arrival of the garrison troops.
It is not uncommon to challenge others in Wanyan City and come to this martial arts arena to have a duel, whether it is a grudge or a person seeking to learn from each other, they will have a fair duel in the martial arts arena.
Normally, such duels are open, and if there is a duel inside, whether it is civilians or other cultivators, they can enter the arena to watch the battle, so every time before the duel between the two sides begins, there will be a garrison army outside the arena to maintain order.
Those spectators didn't know that Jiang Ming and Xiang Hao would duel here, and even now they didn't know who would duel here.
They only knew that since there were garrison troops dispatched to the martial arts arena, there would definitely be a wonderful duel to watch, so they gathered a lot of people.
When Jiang Ming and the four of them came over, Wang Fu was dispatching the people of the city defenders to maintain order, and there were Wang Lan and Wang Lin next to him.
Previously, when Situ Feng was carrying out the plan, Wang Lin had been imprisoned in the secret room in the City Lord's Mansion as a hostage to blackmail the Wang family, and he was not rescued until a few hours ago.
Wang Lin's face and even his body could clearly see multiple scars, thinking that he had also suffered a lot of injuries during the time he was imprisoned by Situ Feng, but fortunately, as a hostage, Situ Feng did not ask for his life.
Wang Lin was originally supposed to be recuperating in the palace when he was rescued, but he already knew that their family was rescued by Jiang Ming this time, and learned from Xiaoyu that Jiang Ming would duel with others in the martial arts arena, so he insisted on coming.
Jiang Ming just nodded slightly at Wang Fu's family when he arrived, and then directly entered the martial arts arena.
Now there are a lot of visitors here, and there is no shortage of cultivators, and Jiang Ming still doesn't recognize Wang Fu's family for the sake of safety.
After Jiang Ming and the others entered the martial arts arena, Wang Fu directly ordered the troops defending the city to evacuate the crowd and surround the entire martial arts arena.
The Wang family and the city lord's family are friends in the world, this is something that everyone in Wanyan City knows, plus the Wang family has been officially recruited as the power of the Killing God Temple, with the status of the Wang family in Wanyan City today, in the case of the city lord Du Haishen being killed, the Wang family has temporarily assumed the leadership responsibility of the city defenders, which no one will object.
The defenders evacuated the crowd, of course, everyone was very puzzled, it was a very common thing to have a duel in the martial arts arena, and in the past, many people could be seen dueling inside, but today there is such a duel but the defenders are isolated from the world, which is inevitably a little surprising in the eyes of everyone.
"I know those people just now, three of them have been to jousting before."
"What is the origin of these people, so that the head of the Wang family came to guard them in person?"
"Who knows, but it certainly won't be an ordinary person!"
…………
The people who were evacuated immediately began to talk, originally planning to watch a good show, but they didn't want to be isolated by the defenders.
There is a formation in this martial arts arena, and even the divine sense can't be stretched in, and there are guards of the city defenders outside, so it is obviously impossible to watch the battle under such circumstances.
Jiang Ming and the others entered the martial arts arena and waited quietly, a few hours ago, a large number of young generation masters gathered here to compete here, and after a few hours, most of them had already left Wanyan City with shame and indignation.
Not long after, Wang Fu's family also joined the martial arts arena, Wang Fu took the lead in the front, and as soon as he came in, he came directly to Jiang Ming and knelt down.
The man has gold under his knees, and Wang Funeng's gift to Jiang Ming is enough to see how grateful he is to Jiang Ming.
Under Situ Feng's conspiracy, Wang Lin was taken hostage and tortured, and Wang Lan and Wang Fu lived under the surveillance of Situ Feng's master and apprentice all day long.
Although Situ Feng originally intended to deceive the spirit stones of the major forces, Wang Fu also knew in his heart that even if there was no threat from Situ Feng after the plan was carried out, those major forces who learned the truth about being deceived would not let their family go.
If Jiang Ming hadn't appeared, if everything had developed according to Situ Feng's plan, Wang Fu's family might have been wiped out.
Coupled with Zeng Xiong's incident before, Jiang Ming has saved the lives of their whole family for the second time, Wang Fu couldn't wait to go to Jiang Ming immediately to express his gratitude after learning about it, but he also knew that Jiang Ming was no longer what it used to be.
He understood that the Xuanyin body could not be leaked in front of the world at will, so he did not immediately recognize it when he learned that it was Jiang Ming's grace this time. (To be continued.) )
