Chapter 40: The Duel Begins
Hearing the words of fierce battle, Jian You's pupils suddenly contracted, his expression froze, and then he calmed down again.
"Jian You, this Su family is the wood family you told me, right?" Lin Yue asked.
"Well, I won't tell you, there is a young lady in the Su family, a stunning fairy. I've admired her for a long time, and several other families have pursued her. This time, she finally got out of the retreat after a year of retreat, and she was going directly to Fairy Spirit City, and she didn't know why. Looks like I'm going to have to go to Faerie City right away to find out. Jian Yu said.
"Okay, when the matter on my side is dealt with in half a month, I am also going to go to Fairy Spirit City, and I will come to you when the time comes. Lin Yue said.
"Well, alright, when the time comes, you can find me at the Wind Whisperer Inn in Fairy Spirit City, which is a stronghold of our family. Jian You said to Lin Yue.
"Okay, come, let's drink. Lin Yue raised his glass.
When Lin Yue and Jian You started drinking and chatting again.
Faerie City.
"Miss, in front of you is the family's stronghold in Fairy Spirit City. A crisp female voice said.
"Hmm. Another female voice came from the carriage of a luxurious beast cart.
After a while, the luxurious beast car heard the entrance of a large courtyard. The door opened, and a woman stepped out slowly. The wind bun dews the sideburns, the eyebrows and eyes are lightly swept with spring, the skin is delicate and soft like a warm jade, the cherry mouth is not dotted and red, delicate and beautiful, the two strands of hair on the cheeks are gently brushed with the wind to add a bit of seductive style, and the flexible eyes turn wisely, a little naughty, a little naughty, a light green long skirt, the waist is not full of a hand, so beautiful that it is so flawless, so beautiful that it does not eat the fireworks of the world.
"Miss, you forgot to bring a veil again. The equally beautiful maid on the side said.
"Oops, it's dark, and few people see it. Hee-hee. The woman smiled.
Not far away, a young man who was rushing home happened to see this scene, and in an instant he only felt that he saw a god in the sky, and nosebleeds gushed out directly. Then it was dark in front of him, and he fainted to the ground with a pop.
The woman walked into the courtyard accompanied by two maids, and the people who had been waiting inside for a long time said in unison, "Hello, young lady." ”
"Well, there's no need to be polite, I hope you will take care of it for the next month. The woman did not shout to the people because she was the master, and after saying a polite word, she walked in briskly with her skirt in her hand.
In the hall, a woman in a long skirt is sitting on a chair, drinking fragrant tea and eating delicate snacks. The maid on the side said, "Miss, didn't we plan to come here next month, why did we come so many days in advance?" ”
"Cher, why don't you understand, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I was imprisoned by Master for a year, and I was about to get sick, but this time I finally had a chance to come out and have fun. I'm sure I'll come early so I can play a few more days. ”
"I'm afraid it's more than a few days, but it's a month, where is Mademoiselle going?" asked another maid at the table, who was setting up dinner.
"Qiuqiu, don't say it. It's been so long this time, let's go around and take a look, I heard that this place is quite close to the Warcraft Mountain Range. The woman in green said playfully.
"Miss, let's come to dinner, and discuss the trip later." Qiuqiu said.
After eating and drinking, Lin Yue paid the money painfully, and walked out of the Piaoxiang Pavilion with Jian You.
"Remember what I told you, come to Fairy Spirit City to find me when the time comes, and I will set off early tomorrow morning. Jian You patted Lin Yue's shoulder and said.
"Well, okay. The two simply said goodbye and parted ways.
Back at the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Yue saw that it was already dark, so he went back to his room to cultivate. This time, Lin Yue found that he could hold on for close to two hours, and it seemed that the higher the level, the longer he could hold on.
In this way, time passed quickly, and half a month passed in a blink of an eye. There are still three days before the day of the duel between Xue Ni and Ren Wei, and Lin Yue did not go out again in the past half a month to hone and improve his cultivation by fighting, but nested in the City Lord's Mansion to cultivate quietly. Although the speed is much slower, he feels that the most important thing is to lay a good foundation. However, because the talent is indeed different from ordinary people, in the past half a month, he has broken through from the middle-grade totem warrior to the top-grade.
This made Lin Yue feel a little helpless, his cultivation was improved too quickly, and he would be noticed by others. It's okay in front, but when you get to the higher level, you can still maintain such a high-speed breakthrough speed, which will definitely cause quite a stir. If only there was a way to hide his cultivation, Lin Yue thought to himself.
However, Lin Yue didn't see Xue Ni in the past half a month, and heard the old snake say that she was in retreat and receiving training from the city lord.
Early in the morning, seeing that the sun was shining, Lin Yue walked out of his small courtyard. On the way, he met Xiaoqing, who had also lived in another courtyard before, and Lin Yue greeted him warmly. Xiaoqing also responded to this, and told Lin Yue that Xue Ni had finished her retreat today. Lin Yue nodded to indicate that he understood, and then said goodbye to Xiaoqing and wandered to the dining hall.
In the days of the City Lord's Mansion, Lin Yue's favorite thing to do was to come to the dining hall when the sun was out. Drinking tea, eating snacks, basking in the sun, it's so comfortable.
Walking into the canteen, Lin Yue found that Xue Ni was also there.
"It's been a long time, how have you been doing in your recent retreat?" Lin Yue walked over and sat down opposite Xue Ni.
"Well, it's okay. The main thing is to consolidate the cultivation, and then learn more advanced totem skills. Shen Ni returned.
"That's good, you should be confident in the duel in three days, right?"
"Of course, I've now stabilized the combat power of a Level 2 Totem Warrior, and I've learned several offensive skills. That Ren Wei will definitely be caught off guard by me, don't worry. Xue Ni said proudly.
"Well, then we're going to leave for the academy when you're done dueling?"
"I guess, what's wrong?" asked Shenny.
"It's nothing, I want to go to Faerie City before I go. You know, the piece of krypton gold I got in Linhai Town before. Lin Yue said.
"Okay, anyway, it's a drop-by. ”
Lin Yue and Xue Ni chatted for a while, and then went their separate ways.
Three days are coming in a blink of an eye, and today is the day of the gambling between Xue Ni and Ren Wei. The entire City Lord's Mansion got to work early, and accompanied by a few guards, Lin Yue and Xue Ni set off for the Totem Branch. Because there you can apply for justice, and then the gambling fight officially takes effect.
East of the city, Tianya Auction House.
"Boss, a qiē ready. When you're done fighting, we'll get to work. ”
"Well, let's go to the Totem Society. I solved it earlier, I'm a little impatient, hehe. Ren Wei said, and also set off to the Shengyang City branch of the Totem Association with a group of guards.
Lin Yue and the others arrived at the gate of the Totem Association's branch in Shengyang City, where a lot of good things had already gathered, and everyone had come to see the excitement after getting the news. After all, the gambling fights that the totem master only saw were actually not common, and this time it was about the Shengyang City City Lord's Mansion and the Tianya Auction House, and everyone wanted to see which side could win.
Coming to the door of the Totem Association, Lin Yue saw the old man who had presided over the ceremony for him before. The old man also saw Lin Yue, he remembered this bright attribute kid very clearly, and the two of them in the distance nodded and signaled.
Not long after Lin Yue and the others arrived, Ren Wei also brought a group of people to the Totem Association. Xue Ni and Ren Wei walked up the steps together, and then walked in front of the old man.
"Please be the president to fight for us fairly. Ren Wei said.
When Lin Yue heard this, it turned out that this old man was the president of the Totem Association, which he really didn't expect.
After the two told the old man about the conditions of the gambling fight, the old man said, "I can be a notary public for you." Do you two want to gamble in a closed environment, or do you want to allow others to watch?"
"I want to gamble openly. Ren Wei said without hesitation, he wanted everyone to see Xue Ni defeated in his hands.
"What about you, little girl?" asked the old man.
Xue Ni hesitated for a moment, "I agree to an open fight. "After all, this is a matter of the face of the City Lord's Mansion, and Xue Ni still thinks it's better to fight openly.
"Okay, then I announce that the totem duel between Xue Ni and Ren Wei has officially taken effect. Now please put your hands in the palm of my hand, and I will perform the duel opening ceremony for you. The old man stretched out his hands.
Xue Ni and Ren Wei each put one hand on the old man's hand, and then the old man said aloud, "Great totem god, please witness this fair, just and open duel." I saw that the old man's hands suddenly lit up, and then a strange rune lit up above the heads of the three of them at the same time.
"Alright, now please back off for the crowd watching below, the totem ring is about to appear. The old man said to the crowd standing below.
Lin Yue and all the onlookers retreated back for more than ten meters, and then a large open space in front of the Totem Association lit up with lights. Just like the totem awakening ritual that Lin Yue experienced before, there is also a magic circle on this ground. The circle grew brighter and brighter, and the entire ground rose with a bang.
Raised all the way to three meters above the ground, a huge square ring was formed. Xue Ni and Ren Wei walked into the ring and separated from each other. The old man spoke again, "The totem duel has officially begun, you don't need to keep your hands, you won't die in the totem ring." Countdown to 10 seconds. ”
I saw a huge flag appear on one side of the square ring, and two huge duels were written on it.
"Hehe, Xue Ni, are you ready to be my concubine?" Ren Wei said provocatively.
"It's not certain who wins and who loses, you bastard!"
"Oh, don't think you're lucky enough to break through the Totem Warrior and you'll be able to stay undefeated, and you'll soon know what true strength is. Ren Wei continued.
“3,2,1。 The duel begins!" shouted the old man.
As soon as the words fell, Xue Ni and Ren Wei instantly ignited a raging totem flame. The flame on Xue Ni's body is aqua blue, while the flame on Ren Wei's body is golden, this Ren Wei is actually a gold totem master.
