Chapter 2 The King of the North Gives the Sword

As soon as he entered the Qiongxian Pavilion, You Xuanhao felt deep regret.

Two columns of powerful, tall and mighty warriors stood on both sides of the foyer with golden spears in their hands, giving people an invisible coercion. On the first floor of Qiongxian Pavilion, there were many middle-class diners sitting sparsely, but they were only eating in a muffled voice, not daring to speak loudly.

"Princess Yue'er has arrived, why don't you see your rigid father?" The big man sitting on the chair in the middle of the hall saw the girl coming, and a kind smile appeared on his humble old face.

The Han is covered in purple gold armor, with a wine gourd hanging from his waist, and more than ten inscriptions on it, which looks like a magic weapon.

"Uncle Beijian Wang has been waiting for a long time, my father has urgent matters that need to be dealt with urgently, so I asked Yue'er to go to the meeting first, but she still arrived late, and Yue'er apologizes to her uncle here. The girl said with a look of shame.

"Big brother, this guy will be late...... Yue'er, uncle doesn't blame you, but this discussion is by no means a trivial matter, you still have to take it to heart, and you have to seize the existing time!" The Northern Sword King frowned, and suddenly saw the young man in beggar clothes behind Yue'er. He saw that although the young man's clothes were shabby, they were very clean, quite different from other beggars, and then looked at the young man's appearance, as if he had found something, so he squinted and stared at You Xuanhao.

You Xuanhao was looking around and sighing at the exquisite decoration here, when he suddenly felt a fierce sense of oppression attacking, and when he looked closely, he found that the big man in front of him, known as the "Northern Sword King", was staring at him.

Damn, could it be that this Northern Sword King is a dead faggot......

The Northern Sword King also noticed You Xuanhao's surprised expression, and his eyes quickly moved to Shangguan Yue'er: "Yue'er, why don't you understand the rules?

You Xuanhao was a little overwhelmed for a while. He said in his heart that although he didn't have any ideas, but now that he was participating in the secret meeting of the two sword kings as an outsider, wouldn't he be killed and killed......?

"Uncle, he's my friend, I just invited him over for a bite to eat, and I sent him out at the beginning of the meeting. Shangguan Yue'er explained.

"Oh, why haven't I heard you say you have a beggar friend?" said the Northern Sword King laughed.

"Uncle is busy with military affairs every day, how do you know that I don't have beggar friends?" Shangguan Yue'er asked rhetorically.

When the Northern Sword King heard this, his face was embarrassed.

Shangguan Yue'er said: "The ancestors of our Shangguan family were also born in the market, and they have a wide range of good knowledge, princes and nobles and even barbarian beggars, the party walks together, and regards the noble and the lowly as dust, so Yue'er also hopes to get to know the sages of the world like her ancestors." ”

"The princess praised it falsely, the contemptible You Xuanhao is not a sage, and it can't be compared with the friendship of the ancestors. You Xuanhao hurriedly bowed down and hugged his fists. He didn't expect Shangguan Yue'er to speak for such a little beggar as him, thinking of the cynicism he received on weekdays, his respect for Shangguan Yue'er increased a few points.

"Hahahaha, it's worthy of Yue'er, it's exactly the same as your father. The Northern Sword King said, "Little beggar, since you are Yue'er's friend, you can eat something here later, but after the wine and meat, please leave by yourself." ”

You Xuanhao agreed, but said: "Your Royal Highness the Northern Sword King, Yue'er and I only met today, and it is not wrong to say that it is a friend, or it is more appropriate to say that it is a passerby in the journey of life." However, I advise you not to think of me as a beggar, although I am not from a famous family, I am also a soul mage. ”

"Oh, little brother, you said that you are a soul mage, but the registered soul mage of the empire has a lot of welfare allowances every month, why should you be a beggar? ”

"Why should I lie to you...... If you hadn't just told me, I wouldn't have known that the soul mage still has a welfare allowance to get. "Since You Xuanhao followed Rong Ze, he rarely understands things outside his body, except for practicing and practicing, there is nothing else, thinking about it like this, I am afraid that Rong Ze has not swallowed his allowance. Thinking of this, You Xuanhao decided to go back and question Old Man Rong after eating.

The three of them said no more and went up to the second floor.

Qiongxian Pavilion is worthy of being Qiongxian Pavilion, go up the wooden ladder, and what catches your eye is a long corridor carved with heavy carvings. Carved on the wall are 32 pictures of jade-faced fairies and jade-faced fairies of different shapes, which are smeared with faint fluorescent paint, shining and charming under the red light of the square ink sandalwood lamps hanging from the ceiling. The fairy on the carving is plump, soft and tender, and her demeanor is gentle, revealing a fairy aura between her eyebrows, as if she is going to come out of the wall in the next moment.

You Xuanhao only felt dizzying, trotted all the way, touched the pretty faces of the thirty-two "fairies" and the pair of bright moons on his chest, and then followed Shangguan Shuo and Shangguan Yue'er into the box.

The interior of the private rooms is simple but exceptionally comfortable. You Xuanhao subconsciously sat next to Shangguan Yue'er, and was stunned unconsciously.

He thought that if he ate in this kind of place every day in the future, no, if he could live here and live happily for the rest of his life, he would have no regrets. Thinking about it, You Xuanhao had completely forgotten the purpose of going out this time.

After waiting for a few minutes, the Southern Sword King still didn't come. Also absent is the son of the Northern Sword King, Shangguan Ducheng. The Northern Sword King was anxious, so he asked Shangguan Yue'er and You Xuanhao to stay upstairs, and went downstairs to wait.

"Ah Hao. Shangguan Yue'er pulled You Xuanhao's sleeve.

"Huh?"

"When my father and cousin come, don't talk too much, or you might get into trouble. ”

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"My cousin is the same age as you, if he knows that you are a soul mage, he will definitely have a fight with you, I don't want him to hurt you......" The two sword kings are both the elder brothers of the Xuanshuang Emperor, although Shangguan Bo is older, he got a daughter very late, and Shangguan Ducheng was born a year earlier than Shangguan Yue'er.

"When you say that, I want to fight your cousin instead. ”

"It's better not to. Cousin, he has now reached the level of a second-class sect, and ordinary people are far from him. ”

You Xuanhao once again felt that something was wrong with his ears. What are two major cases?

The level of soul mages is clear, and levels 1 to 9 are beginners, so naturally there is no title. Levels 10 to 29 are all master-level, and every time you break through the bottleneck of level 10, you can practice a yellow soul bead, a total of two; levels 30 to 49 are all major levels, similar to the master level, two blue soul beads; level 50 to 69 is the emperor level, two black soul beads; 70 to 89 is the saint-level level, two red soul beads; after 90 to 99, he is already a peerless powerhouse in the world, the emperor level, a white soul bead; and after that, there are people who can peep into Shinto, and it is said that they have colored soul beads, known as demigod level. Each soul bead comes with a talent skill, called soul art, and soul beads above the emperor level can also rub spirit beast skills.

Reaching the level of the second major sect means reaching level 40 and having four soul beads in yellow, yellow, blue and blue.

This cousin has actually reached level 40! You must know that the cultivation of soul mages before the age of fifteen is basically to consolidate the soul, and the cultivation is generally not higher than level 30.

According to this calculation, the sixteen-year-old Shangguan Ducheng had been promoted to level ten in just one year, otherwise, he might have reached level 35 or above by the age of fifteen. Of course, You Xuanhao was just fifteen years old, and now he has reached level 37, and he is already a genius. However, Shangguan Ducheng, which broke through the bottleneck of level 40, was almost invincible for You Xuanhao at level 37. However, if there is really a chance, You Xuanhao would really like to try it.

"In this case, I have no chance of winning...... Compared to this, I want to take the liberty of asking the princess, our identities are very different, can we really be friends?" You Xuanhao asked abruptly, he knew that Shangguan Yue'er invited him in mainly out of pity for him. He likes this little princess who is close to the people very much, but he doesn't ask the other party to like him.

"Well, I believe that everything in the world is arranged, and since we have met, then we are naturally friends. ”

"And did you allow your friend to bully your cousin?"

"Huh?"

"Nothing. You Xuanhao said, "How is your cousin?" Before you knew it, You Xuanhao slowly began to want to know some things about the Heavenly Ice Imperial Family.

"He is very good, although he is only sixteen years old, he has been knighted, and he is very courteous and virtuous. He has taken good care of me since I was a child, and he will share anything good with me, although he likes to pester me when he has nothing to do, and jokes that he wants to marry me when he grows up, but he is indeed a man with big ambitions. β€œ

"I'll go, German orthopedics?" You Xuanhao whispered.

"Hmm, what did you just say?"

"No, nothing. What, there shouldn't be many opportunities for you to come to Fengdu, next time you come to Fengdu, come to me at the Ice Emperor Bridge, and I invite you to eat the unique civilian food on the side street, how about it?"

"Eh, really?" Shangguan Yue'er stood up excitedly. She has always wanted to taste the special food of various places, but every time she travels, she can only eat the big fish and meat of the hotel, which is really boring.

"Well, really......"

As soon as You Xuanhao's words fell, Shangguan Shuo came up with Shangguan Ducheng.

I have to say that Shangguan Jiecheng is a handsome guy with a good demeanor. It looks a bit romantic on the outside, but the sharp gaze in his eyes is intimidating. A pair of slender Danfeng eyes under a pair of sword eyebrows, but they are not gentle at all. You Xuanhao was very skeptical that Shangguan Shuo, such an ugly guy, could give birth to a son as handsome as himself. Dressed in gold armor and with a blue metallic feather stuck in his right shoulder, he reveals his superhuman status.

16 years old, second-level commander, is this against the sky?

You Xuanhao is convinced that he has hit a ghost today. He heard Old Man Rong say that the ranks of the orthodox army of the Heavenly Ice Empire are from low to high, in order of third-level general, second-level general, first-class general, third-level commander, second-level commander, and first-level commander, corresponding to the bronze armor without feathers, bronze armor white feathers, silver armor white feathers, gold armor white feathers, gold armor blue feathers, and gold armor black feathers...... This guy turned out to be a second-level commander, how did he do it, a prodigy? Or is the emperor magnanimous and blind?

"I think I know what you're thinking. Shangguan Yue'er said with a smile, "My cousin is a prodigy in governing the army, and the emperor's uncle specially named him 'Tianze Marshal', ranking right among the second-level commanders. ”

"Is it really blind dragon's eye......

You Xuanhao got up, strode forward, and caught up with Shangguan Shuo's father and son.

"I have heard the handsome name of Tianze for a long time, and when I see it today, I am really a talent, and I am suave ......"

The corners of Shangguan Jiecheng's mouth rose slightly, but he spoke unceremoniously: "You beggar can pat yourself on the back, I heard my father say that you are a soul mage, I don't know if you have real skills, and you can't afford my sword." ”

Before the words fell, the sword was unsheathed.

The red sword qi lingered around Shangguan Ducheng, and a powerful coercion erupted.

"Wait, wait!!" You Xuanhao didn't expect Shangguan Jiecheng to be so fierce, and shouted, "Brother, don't do things here, I don't have money to pay for breaking things." ”

He said: "Besides, you are already a cut above me, and you are still wearing this armor with bright and blind titanium alloy dog eyes, are you not intentionally bullying the disadvantaged?"

After hearing this, Shangguan Jiecheng immediately withdrew his hand, walked in front of You Xuanhao, and said softly: "Little brother, I am the only one who can sit next to Yue'er." If you want to soak my Yue'er, wait for me to change my armor, and you can wait to die. With that, he left the box and changed his clothes.

You Xuanhao was shocked in a cold sweat. He concluded that what Shangguan Jiecheng said was definitely not a joke, and if he did something to Shangguan Yue'er, it was likely that he would really be killed by Shangguan Jiecheng. I can't help but sigh, the person is very handsome, but it's a pity that he is a pervert.

"His Royal Highness the Northern Sword King, is it really appropriate to compete with Ling Lang now? You are going to hold a secret meeting, and I will also go out to do business later, I'm afraid I don't have much to spare, right?" You Xuanhao asked.

Shangguan Shuo thought for a while and said, "It's okay, since my brother hasn't arrived yet, and this secret meeting is mainly to deal with some trivial matters, it doesn't matter if it is delayed for a quarter of an hour." If there's something you have to do right away, I'll send someone to do it for you. ”

"That's not necessary, thank you for your kindness. ”

Soon, Shangguan Ducheng returned.

Shangguan Ducheng, who was dressed in civilian clothes, was indeed very handsome, better than You Xuanhao, but at this time, You Xuanhao had no time to be jealous. The disparity in rank made You Xuanhao feel pressured. They moved to the test bench and began to face off. In Fengdu, only a big hotel like Qiongxian Pavilion dedicated to soul mages and immortal monks will have a competition platform.

"Hao, come on. Shangguan Yue'er beckoned to You Xuanhao on the stage. You Xuanhao kept smiling on the surface, but in fact he was panicked, because after Shangguan Yue'er cheered for him, the expression on Shangguan Jiecheng's face became even more ugly.

Damn sister control, see that this handsome guy doesn't hammer you!

Without waiting for Shangguan to decide on the city, You Xuanhao's mouth moved: "Great sea god, please give me the power of the sea and condense the shackles of agility!"

As soon as the words fell, a pale blue halo flashed on You Xuanhao's arm, and many smart water droplets appeared out of thin air in an instant, shining with strange brilliance in the circle. Under the explosion of spiritual power, the three soul beads of yellow, yellow, and blue began to rotate around You Xuanhao's body.

As You Xuanhao's arms swung out, the water droplets quickly turned into shackles and flew towards Shangguan Ducheng.

"Magic Soul Technique?!" Shangguan Ducheng was startled, the sword on the left side was unsheathed, and more than ten sword qi slashed towards the shackles of water. The four soul beads of yellow, yellow, blue and blue appeared.

The shackles were raised, and the sword qi was met.

Herebyβ€”β€”β€”β€”

The situation far exceeded You Xuanhao's expectations. The shackles formed by the condensation of water droplets evaporated into water vapor and disappeared in front of You Xuanhao's eyes.

He's not an ice soul mage!

According to You Xuanhao's train of thought, Shangguan Ducheng belongs to the Heavenly Ice Imperial Family, and must be an ice soul mage. And although You Xuanhao is a water soul mage, he is restrained by the ice element, and his control of the water element is perfect, but it is enough for the shackles of water to contain Shangguan Ducheng before the ice element freezes it. But the ...... is in front of you A fire soul mage from the Heavenly Ice royal family has broken the plan.

There was no way, I could only go on it, and the third soul technique didn't work, so I had to set up another plan. You Xuanhao roared and rushed to Shangguan Ducheng.

Instantaneous, Second Soul Technique-Water Archery Technique!Countless arrow-shaped water emanated from the center of You Xuanhao's right palm, and quickly shot at Shangguan Ducheng.

"Wall of Fire!"

A water arrow slashed through Shangguan Ducheng's face, and then the wall of fire was erected out of thin air, blocking all the water arrows.

"Oh no, his fire is too fierce for my water to extinguish......" You Xuanhao's mind was racing, trying to calculate how to get out of the downwind situation.

Then the water arrow is fired, and the opponent meets him with rockets.

Z-

The handover of ice and fire turned into water vapor again.

"Blocked?"

This is true – but not all. In the thick mist, a remnant rocket flew out and shot straight at You Xuanhao's head.

Lying back urgently, the rocket swiped over You Xuanhao's head. Kind of escaped!

"Whew...... It's so dangerous, almost one less genius in the world!"

However, the battle is not over yet. The Northern Sword King and Shangguan Yue'er behind Shangguan Ducheng were looking at it vigorously, and it didn't matter who lost or who won. You Xuanhao thought that he must not lose face, so he looked at Shangguan Yue'er...... She's smiling at me!

But Shangguan Ducheng didn't leave him time to commit nymphomaniac. Then the Fourth Soul Technique was launched.

"Minions of Fire!" The flames rose into the sky, and in an instant, it turned into a giant beast that was half a dragon and half a phoenix, fluttering its huge wings, and galloping towards You Xuanhao.

The minions of fire, the fourth soul technique of Shangguan Ducheng City, the effect - flame impact, controlled by the initiator's mind, with an additional burst burn effect. Those who are not higher than their own strength cannot be accepted. What a fire minion, if you change to an ordinary soul mage, this skill should already be the sixth soul technique!

You Xuanhao took a deep breath, and his hands continued to condense water droplets. The first soul technique - water shield, activate!

A wall of water appeared in front of You Xuanhao out of thin air, emitting powerful energy fluctuations. "You must block it!" You Xuanhao glanced at the wall of water in front of him, and ran backwards. The farther away the better!

Boom β€”β€”β€”β€”

It's a big cloud of fog again.

However, the Flame Behemoth only stopped for a moment, and then flew towards You Xuanhao at a rapid pace.

"O great god of the sea, please give me the power of the sea and condense the shackles of agility!

More than a dozen chains the thickness of an adult's wrist flew towards the flame beast, entangled the dragon's claws. The behemoth finally stopped.

You Xuanhao smiled, rushed to Shangguan Jiecheng, dodged a sword swung by Shangguan Jiecheng in a panic, and punched him in the handsome face.

"Left Hook!Right Hook!Up Hook!Down Hook!Pegasus Meteor Punch!Ha!"

Shangguan Jiecheng retreated five steps in a row and almost fell to the ground. And You Xuanhao's breath was steady, as if the victory was in hand.

But at this moment, the shackles that trapped the flame beast completely evaporated.

Worst!

You Xuanhao knew that if the flames attacked, Shangguan Ducheng would naturally be immune to fire, and in this way, he would lose! He looked at Shangguan Yue'er behind Shangguan Ducheng, and suddenly a trace of smart light flashed in his eyes.

"Yue'er, what's wrong with you?!" he looked surprised and looked at Shangguan Yue'er.

You Xuanhao's pretended panic really worked, Shangguan Jiecheng turned around with concern and anxiety on his face, but saw that Princess Yue'er was safe and sound, and before he could figure out the situation, he was kicked away by You Xuanhao. In the midst of the dissipation, the minions of fire instantly collapsed.

"Brother, you really still have a Too young, too simple Tucson break. A beggar who can't act is not a qualified soul mage. ”

In this game, You Xuanhao won the game.

"Excellent performance. The applause rang out behind him, but the voice was unfamiliar.

"Dad!" Shangguan Yue'er shouted, "Why did you arrive?"

The man in white smiled, "I just used the concealment technique to stand here for a long time, what do you mean to arrive?" This little brother is really extraordinary, and his appearance is impeccable, but this beggar pretends to be ......."

You Xuanhao took a step forward: "His Royal Highness the Southern Sword King, if you look down on beggars, then I think I can go." ”

"No, I'm trying to say, do you want to get a new one, I have a few cloth clothes. ”

"What's so embarrassing about that...... Show me if it fits. You Xuanhao shamelessly took the cloth in Shangguan Bo's hand. This was taken out of the soul magic bag on Shangguan Bo's waist that could hold a one-square-meter object. I looked back and forth, and it was indeed suitable.

"Your Highness!"

Shangguan Bo smiled slightly, carefully looked at You Xuanhao, blonde hair...... Not native. He motioned to Shangguan Shuo, and Shangguan Shuo also nodded, before he stared at You Xuanhao, it was because of You Xuanhao's hair color. Then Shangguan Bo turned his gaze to Shangguan Yue'er: "Such a handsome friend, why haven't you mentioned it to me?"

Shangguan Yue'er's face was flushed, "Dad...... I only met him today. "Pulling the corners of her skirt as she spoke.

At this time, the Northern Sword King spoke: "You kid is really treacherous, and he actually defeated the decisive city, which can be regarded as a heavenly asset." I have a sword here, although I don't have a sword spirit, but it is very suitable for you, I wonder if you are happy to accept my gift?"

"Your Highness Xie!" You Xuanhao was unceremonious, and did not salute as a corporal, and took the sword in Shangguan Shuo's hand. He didn't want to run away like that.

I have to say that this sword is really a sword, the sword is two feet and an inch long, the sword body is made of special materials, revealing a trace of coolness, the blade is like autumn frost, and it is extremely sharp. A square groove on the hilt of the sword is used to set gems to increase the power of the sword.

"Little brother, I see that you are indeed a genius of cultivation, and your talent is not below the city at all, if you become a great weapon in the future, I hope you can serve the country. We'll be sure to reuse you then. You and Yue'er are friends, have the opportunity to contact her more, after all, Yue'er's friends are really rare......" Shangguan Bo patted You Xuanhao's shoulder, meaning and authentic.

You Xuanhao agreed.

That afternoon, You Xuanhao and the Sword King had a big meal together. After being a beggar for so long, he finally had to have a feast today, and You Xuanhao felt extremely satisfied.

When the drinking party reached the secret meeting stage, You Xuanhao also left on his own, what the two sword kings discussed, he naturally didn't know, but he also guessed that it was related to the local conflict between the two empires of TechnoAlpin and Seth. Before leaving, Shangguan Yue'er gave him a warm ring pei as a souvenir. The two have been friends ever since.

You Xuanhao inexplicably thanked Old Man Rong, if he hadn't asked me to come out to buy New Year's goods, how could there be such an opportunity?

Wait a minute...... Buying New Year's goods?!Oh no!

You Xuanhao knocked on his head and fell into a hurry.
