Chapter 179: Broken Sword Villa
More than half a year ago, Jiang Lingyu descended on Yunluo Town like a god. looked at Chu Lian with eyes like ants, and also pressed Chu Lian to the ground and humiliated him, and then took Meng Lingling away.
Chu Lian remembered these things clearly. In any case, Chu Lian has to ask for an explanation for this matter. More importantly, he wants to find his sister.
Now I went to Broken Sword Mountain Villa to be able to know Meng Lingling's whereabouts.
Because that Qin Hu was crippled by Chu Lian's palm, and then directly mended by Ma Yang, he was already dead. A strong man like Song Lao was also killed by Chu Lian, and there were no accidents on the next journey of the Wu family's caravan.
By the afternoon of the next day, they had come to a mountain villa, and on top of that mountain villa there was a golden temple. And it exudes a sky-high aura, which is eye-catching.
At the foot of the mountain, it is a manor that occupies a hundred miles of land, and Wu Tingting and others put down their goods in the resting place. And the people who received them were all the subordinates of Broken Sword Villa.
At this time, Wu Tingting came to one of the responsible persons and said, "Uncle, please inform the young owner of Xi Shaozhuang that I have brought what he wants the most." β
The old man dressed in the housekeeper's clothes turned pale, nodded hurriedly, and went to report.
Ma Yang let out a breath and said, "Oops, it's finally here." β
"yes. Wu Xiaobin and many people from the Wu family's caravan all let out a sigh. They also traveled a long way to get here, and they encountered a tide of beasts on the way, and they were also plundered by the people of Hutou Mountain, but fortunately, there was no danger in the end.
Everyone waited for about a quarter of an hour, but they saw a young man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes enter through the door and come to the courtyard where everyone was resting. When she saw Wu Tingting and the others, a strange look flashed in her eyes.
But then he immediately suppressed it, a smile appeared on his face, and said to Wu Tingting: "This must be Sister Ting, I don't know if Uncle Wu is in good health?"
Wu Tingting showed a smile on her face, seeing that the other party was not only handsome, but also so polite, she also had a good impression for a while, and nodded: "Thank you brother for your concern, my father is all right, but he occasionally feels cold, so he is recuperating at home, and this time he can't come in person." β
"It's okay, it's okay, as long as the stuff arrives safely. The young man said.
"This is the young owner of Broken Sword Villa, Xi Hao. That Ma Yang whispered to Chu Lian.
Chu Lian nodded, this Xi Hao seems to be peaceful, but in fact, he is arrogant. The body unconsciously exudes a sword-like aura, making others unconsciously feel awe of it.
Seeing that Xi Hao was a little excited, Wu Tingting didn't ink, took out a cyan jade pendant from the Qiankun bag, and said, "This is exactly what it is." β
Ma Yang's eyes froze, and this piece of jade pendant was shining all over, without the slightest impurity. Moreover, there is a faint terrifying power on it, which shows its extraordinary.
At this moment, he also knew that the appearance of this delivery of goods was nothing more than a disguise. What the Wu family's caravan really wanted to transport was this piece of jade pendant that was no bigger than a palm.
"Okay, good, good! In two days, the Broken Sword Conference will come, and this jade pendant will come at the right time. Xi Hao took the jade pendant, with a smile on his face, and said excitedly.
"Young Zhuang Master, I don't know what we want...... Wu Tingting asked, but before she finished speaking, Xi Hao immediately interrupted:
"Eh, don't worry about this, Miss Wu can stay and participate in or observe the Broken Sword Conference together. When the Broken Sword Conference passes, the treasure will be presented with both hands. β
Wu Tingting frowned, and instead nodded: "Okay!"
"Miss Wu is afraid that I will not give that treasure to Xi, so don't worry. There's still something to do next, so let's do it first. Xi Hao said goodbye immediately.
At this moment, suddenly a figure broke into the courtyard, came to Xi Hao's side, and said, "Young Zhuang Master, Jiang County Lord asked you to go." β
Xi Hao nodded: "Let's go!" After that, he left with the man.
Watching Xi Hao leave, Wu Xiaobin's face became ugly, and he gritted his teeth and said, "What kind of attitude? β
Wu Tingting's face was also a little unsightly, this Xi Hao seemed to be deliberately tearing away the remuneration.
Chu Lian's eyes sank, and he said, "I don't think this Xi Hao will give you what you want." β
"Ah, why?" Wu Xiaobin on the side was stunned for a moment and asked.
Wu Tingting was also puzzled.
Chu Lian frowned and said, "I'm kidding." β
"Oops, scared the hell out of me, benefactor. Wu Xiaobin said with a smile.
Chu Lian was silent, he had just seen the person who came to inform Xi Hao, and he already knew it. That Xi Hao would never give Wu Tingting and others what they wanted. Because that person just now was the man in black that Chu Lian met during the last beast tide.
At that time, it was the latter who used secret methods to control the beast tide, causing a lot of losses to the Wu family's caravan. Now that the latter actually appeared by Xi Hao's side, I am afraid that this matter was instructed by Xi Hao. The purpose is to rob the jade pendant, and he doesn't want to pay the corresponding reward at all.
However, Chu Lian also heard the good news, because he had now determined that Jiang Lingyu was in the Broken Sword Villa. Therefore, Chu Lian also stayed in the Broken Sword Villa, waiting for the opening of the Broken Sword Conference.
In the past two days, Chu Lian also knew about the situation of the Broken Sword Conference.
Once upon a time, Broken Sword Villa was originally just a barren mountain. One day, a broken sword flew from the sky, blasted the entire mountain peak, and stuck it in a boulder.
Instead, it merged with the boulder and became a sword in the stone, and no one could pull it out.
Later, the owner of Broken Sword Villa occupied the place. Although he did not pull out the broken sword, he was greatly inspired by observing the broken sword, and he actually forged countless peerless swords, and became famous for a while.
Since then, Broken Sword Villa has become famous.
Even in the Northern Wilderness Realm, it has a great reputation.
However, no one can pull out this broken sword. Some say it is a divine sword, but it is the sword of the gods in heaven. Some say it's a magic sword, spurned by the gods, and thrown here. Some say it was the sword of some peerless master, who fell and lost the sword here.
There are different opinions, but the Broken Sword Villa holds a Broken Sword Conference every ten years.
Select many talented disciples and try to pull out the sword in the stone. But over the years, they have failed.
But this year, there was an accident. The ancestor of the Wu family inadvertently obtained a piece of jade pendant, and found that the power on the jade pendant was actually the same as the breath of the broken sword. As soon as possible, the people of Broken Sword Villa inquired.
So they discussed with the ancestor of the Wu family, and prepared to exchange the most powerful sword of the Broken Sword Villa, the Bladeless Ruler Sword, for this jade pendant.
Because they thought that with this jade pendant, it was very possible to pull out the sword in the stone.
......
Two days later, the much-anticipated Broken Sword Conference finally began. On this day, all the nearby forces, large and small, came. They also more or less selected the outstanding children of their clan to come to participate in this Sword Breaking Conference.
Everyone gathered outside the main hall of the Broken Sword Villa. On the huge bluestone square, people from many forces came. And on the central stone platform of the square, there stood a middle-aged man in a golden robe, his eyes were sharp, and a pair of eyes emitted a terrifying light.
This person is none other than the lord of the Broken Sword Villa, Xi Jian.
Behind him, there were ten seats, reserved for the lords of the great powers. That Jiang Lingyu was also among them, but at the moment, the latter closed his eyes and recuperated and did not pay attention to the situation here.
"It is said that the owner of Xi Zhuang is already the peak master of the Yuan Emperor, and at the moment, it seems that it is indeed as rumored by the outside world. Ma Yang said beside Chu Lian.
Chu Lian nodded, but his gaze was on Jiang Lingyu. If there is no mistake, the strength of this Jiang County Lord is also the peak of the Yuan Emperor, and although Chu Lian's strength is far greater than that of the beginning, he is not the latter's opponent.
In the past two days in the Broken Sword Villa, Chu Lian also absorbed a large amount of star yuan power because of his star tree, and his strength recovered to a one-star yuan emperor. It can be said that now he has all his injuries.
"When the conference is over, we can get the Broken Sword Villa's Bladeless Ruler Sword. Wu Xiaobin said excitedly.
Chu Lian shook his head secretly, this kid was too naΓ―ve. As everyone knows, from the beginning, Xi Hao never thought about letting this transaction continue.
Clang!
A huge bell rang throughout the square, and for a moment, everyone present stopped talking. The sword looked at the crowd and exclaimed:
"Everyone, thank you for coming to the Broken Sword Conference in your busy schedule, I won't talk about the extra rules. But now I ask again, are there any people here who want to participate in this conference? β
Those in those forces, you look at me, I look at you, and no one speaks. Those of them who wanted to participate have already gone and will still be here?
Just when that Xi Jian thought that there was no one, he saw Chu Lian beside Ma Yang stand up and shouted:
"I'll participate!"
