Chapter Seventy-One: A Man or a Demon

As Su Qingming stopped writing, the true dragon gradually disappeared.

There are so many people in the world, no matter how high or low their realm is, big or small, when they practice what is born for them, they are the most amorous characters.

The clear paper returned to the stone table.

The tea smoke that had been rising had disappeared at some point.

Everyone on the round platform recovered from the shock and confusion.

Luo Jianghe's face was unwilling, but he was helpless.

From the moment he put pen to paper, he knew that he had lost a lot.

But this strange way of not talking about skills, unreasonable, and like crushing made him a little unacceptable.

Short silence.

"First, Su Qingming."

An elder of the Luo family, who was the judge, glanced at the manual and said calmly.

According to the normal process, the top three are generally evaluated.

However, he only pronounced the first place, which would normally attract dissent, but this time it was not.

Because even laymen can see that this kind of painting skills that are close to Taoism are no longer on the same level as others.

Su Qingming stepped off the round platform, suddenly frowned, and asked, "How many more times do you need to compete like this?" ”

Chen Ling'er recovered from the shock and said: "The first place will be selected in each competition and the final battle will be entered." ”

Su Qingming raised his eyebrows: "Group battle? ”

Chen Ling'er nodded and said, "Yes." ”

Su Qingming glanced around and was puzzled: "Why isn't there a type of direct fight?" ”

In the cultivation world, no matter what posture or method one uses to enter the Dao, the most basic and important thing is combat power.

The weak eat the strong, and embarking on the path of cultivation is bound to be bloody and bloody.

So I can understand that in the end, the most common battle is used to divide the winners and losers, but some people don't understand why they have to do so many tricks since they always have to fight, and what is the meaning?

Chen Fangwen had been silent, and only then did he explain: "Mainly for the sake of quota and interests, the top five can control the distribution of the immortal jade spirit veins outside the city, as for why there was no competition in the beginning..."

Chen Fangwen smiled bitterly and said, "The Zhou family has been the number one in the Dragon Head Banquet for decades, and the resources of the disciples under the sect are the best in the entire Great River City, so... Not necessarily. ”

There is no need, because the final winner is the Zhou family anyway.

Su Qingming sighed, and then strode around.

The competition ended quickly, but the rest of the competition was still in full swing.

There are merry men who dominate the world on the chessboard.

There are septuagenarians who do not have the slightest realm, but sit quietly on the high platform and participate in meditation.

There are three scholars sitting around and pointing out the country.

Li Rou, the daughter of the Li family, was strategizing on the array, looking lazy.

Su Qingming didn't stop anywhere, he just swept by.

Chen Ling'er followed behind, a little worried: "Su Qingming, will you be able to win against them later?" ”

"Since I want to help your family, it's a natural thing."

Su Qingming said.

Chen Ling'er whispered: "What if you can't win?" ”

Su Qingming thought about it seriously and said, "Then run." ’

Chen Ling'er scratched her little head and nodded heavily.

....

The Dragon's Head Feast lasted from noon to the second day.

Most of the people present were cultivators, and they were not tired at all, not to mention that there were many houses and buildings around the round platform for resting, and there were many handsome maids, which was very comfortable.

Chen Fangwen is not confused, he is tired all year round, and he has already rested.

In the middle of the night, there were still countless noises in the distance.

Su Qingming has been standing on the edge of the round platform and looking up into the distance.

And Chen Ling'er fought with her eyelids, but she still stubbornly sat on the small bench next to her, leaning on Su Qing and falling asleep.

The old servant of the Chen family brought a luxurious shawl and gently covered the little girl.

Su Qing glanced at him.

The old servant looked as usual and asked, "What are you looking at the sky for so long?" ”

Su Qingming said lightly: "People are always easily attracted by the scenery in the distance, but forget what is in front of them. ”

The old servant listened.

Su Qingming pointed to the starry sky, "The sea of stars, the endless spiritual energy firmament, under such a vision of heaven and earth, how small and fragile the human power is, and it seems so magnificent, but everyone here doesn't even have the same idea of looking up, but cares about some magic weapons and pills that don't enter the stream, so they are puzzled." ”

The old servant sneered: "You are from the Sword Sect, you are naturally admired by thousands of people, and you can have such a domineering and unparalleled sword intent, but everyone here is desperate for cultivation resources, and their vision is different, how can you see the same things?" ”

Su Qingming didn't explain some of the mistakes in the other party's words, but was silent for a while, nodded and said, "Reasonable." ”

The old servant then looked at the starry sky and sighed: "Even if you can win this competition, it won't change much for the Chen family. ”

But she cared about something else.

Su Qingming said lightly: "I came here to solve the crisis of the Chen family, and the Dragon Head Banquet has no meaning to me. ”

The old servant asked rhetorically: "The Zhou family is intertwined in Dahe City, how can you solve it?" ”

Su Qingming said calmly: "Just kill a few more people." ”

...

The old servant stared at Su Qingming's eyes, as if he wanted to see something.

A behemoth like the Sword Sect is naturally like a flood beast for a small sect like the Zhou family.

But the power of a person and the power of a sect are completely different concepts.

Behind the Zhou family is the Yu family of the Sword Sect, which is an extremely important branch of the family.

What he cared about, or what he was afraid of, was that Su Qingming acted recklessly, and finally left, leaving a bigger trouble for the Chen family.

Su Qingming said indifferently: "The solution I am talking about is naturally a complete solution, as for you, no matter what the reason, the demon clan can't harm mortals at will, do you think that if you turn into a human and hide your breath, I can't see it?" ”

The old servant narrowed his eyes, and a faint demonic aura emanated from his body.

He thought that his concealment method was not obvious even in the demon clan, not to mention that the young man in front of him was just in the early stage of the Ning Yuan Realm.

Su Qing didn't reply, and asked lightly, "Looking for death?" ”

The old servant looked at his figure, and for some reason suddenly remembered the sword, hesitated for a while, and the aura around him was still calm.

The two were silent.

On this round platform, some people are happy, some are melancholy, some are dreaming, some are annoyed, and some are looking at the stars and the sea from afar.

This scene is like fireworks in the world.

As the red sun shines from afar, the rays of light emerge from the boundless darkness, like a glimmer of hope in the hearts of men.

There was silence for a long time.

Finally.

It's dawn.

..

The rising sun looms in the sea of clouds and illuminates most of the clouds in the sky.

Chen Ling'er opened her eyes in a daze, and saw Su Qingming's expression focused, silently looking into the distance.

"What are you looking at?"

"Stars."

Chen Ling'er was puzzled: "What do you see?" ”

Su Qingming said: "It is rumored that every time a star disappears, it means that there is a person in the world who dies, and the soul returns to heaven and earth. ”

"If the vanishing star is very bright, it means that the person is strong, or great."

"A great man has died, and it is important to see it."

Chen Ling'er rolled her eyes and said, "My father also told me when I was a child that the meteors in the sky are the marks left by countless people after they died. ”

Su Qingming shook his head and said, "No, those meteors are not human imprints. ”

Chen Ling'er scratched her head and asked, "What's that?" ”

"Wish."

Su Qingming raised his head, was silent for a while, and said calmly: "There are countless people's wishes in the starry sky. ”

Chen Ling'er felt speechless, but looked at Su Qingming's side face and didn't speak.

Because that face is unquestionable, as if it is only telling a simple truth.

Chen Ling'er suddenly didn't know what to say.

As time passed, most of the competitions were over, but everyone's faces were not tired, but more energetic.

The first place in each competition was gradually revealed, and Sanxiu, who usually won the first place, was satisfied, while more people were waiting to see what happened next.

Because this is about to be related to the reshuffle of the forces in the city, although the Zhou family is undoubtedly the first in the eyes of everyone, the rest of the family, especially the Chen family, is very concerning.

As soon as he thought of this, the eyes of countless people moved to Su Qingming's body again.

His performance on the painting road shocked everyone before, and I don't know if he will be able to turn the tide next.

...

Suddenly, another high platform rose from the ground in the center of the round platform, and it rose a hundred feet upwards again.

Several figures rose into the air to meet everyone's gaze and jumped onto the final competition venue.

Su Qingming raised his head and glanced at it.

Zhou Ruohua of the Zhou family, Li Rou of the Li family, Luojiang River of the Luo family, and one of the last four Gu family Gu Ming are all here.

Su Qingming glanced at Luo Jianghe extraordinarily.

He remembers that in this competition, only the first place was eligible to participate in the final competition.

"After all, it's the Luo family, how can this major event be absent."

Zhao Ji saw Su Qingming's doubts and explained: "Last night, he participated in the piano competition again and successfully won the championship. ”

Su Qingming said with a hint of ridicule: "It seems that he is very good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting." ”

Chen Ling'er sneered and mocked: "No one cares about the process, anyway, he is the one who wins in the end." ”

The interests and disputes behind the major events related to the prosperity and decline of the family, such as the spiritual vein, the medicine garden, and the ownership of the shop, are far beyond the imagination of others.

Su Qingming didn't care, his toes were light, and he appeared on the high platform again in an instant.

Everyone in the audience looked at Su Qingming with a look of vigilance.

The painting of that realm is very impressive.

"Let's go."

As a man in purple clothes with a feminine face gave orders at the edge of the platform, the atmosphere on the high platform began to grow cold.

In this kind of group battle, it is the most correct choice to team up to deal with the strongest person, or to keep the best state and watch the fire from the other side.

It's just that no one is the first to strike, and it's quiet.

Zhou Ruohua, who was one of them, just looked at Su Qingming with a smile.

Su Qingming raised her eyebrows slightly.

Because Luo Jianghe and Gu Ming stood beside him.

Countless people exclaimed.

Different from Luojianghe's handsomeness, Gu Ming's face is rough and ugly, his skin is dark, and his body is like a small mountain, full of momentum.

It's just that many people can't understand it, and Chen Fangwen's face is even more embarrassed.

When did the Dongfang family and the Gu family join forces with the Zhou family again?

The ambitions of the Zhou family are known all over the city, and there are even rumors outside that the Zhou family will soon annex the four families and occupy the entire immortal jade vein.

Don't they know the truth of the cold of the lips and the teeth?

Su Qing meditated, then looked at the other side.

Li Rou's face turned demonic, shook his head and said, "I won't interfere." ”

Su Qing sighed, and then raised his legs and prepared to walk towards that side.

"You are Su Qingming?"

Another cold voice sounded at this moment.

Su Qing heard the prestige.

In addition to the Zhou family and the four families, the only ugly man dressed as a martial artist stood up.

He looked at Su Qingming, pulled his lips, and said disdainfully: "The painting is good, but I don't know how to cultivate?" ”

For thousands of years, any wars and grievances that could change the course of history, no matter how earth-shattering and far-reaching the impact were, began with a few trivial things that some people produced.

These little things are so small that people sometimes can't believe them.

A single action, a look, or even an understatement will do.

Like what...

Do you think tofu brain is sweet or salty?

Another example...

"Have you eaten?"

"You can't see if you eat or not."

...

The man's words clearly represented this meaning, revealing hostility and contempt.

And all the people in the city recognized him as he was.

Zhou family Zhou Zhiwang

But more importantly, he is the cousin of the head of the Zhou family, and he is also a figure who will be recognized as a replacement for the Chen family after its decline.

And this move is even more difficult to explain.

Let a person who is nominally far away from the four families defeat the Chen family, and the face and future influence can also make those Chen family's subordinates able to find a reason for themselves.

Zhou Ruohua looked at this scene with a smile.

The rest of the people were even more unresponsive.

Su Qingming stopped.

Unlike the other people's expressions, he has always been calm.

It doesn't matter if it's one person or three.

Su Qingming said: "You admit defeat now, I will spare your life." ”

He looked at Zhou Ruohua, completely innumerable about that martial artist.

Zhou Ruohua suddenly felt very ridiculous, sneered in his mouth, and said, "Get out." ”
