I. Chapter 26 Yue Bufan
Lin Tian held a half-cut short knife in his hand, and he was embarrassed to deal with Yue Bufan's attack. In the blink of an eye, his body was already scarred, especially a square wound on his shoulder, which was slowly flowing with blood......
The Qingguang fan emitted bursts of blue light, and when it touched the sharp blade, it was not damaged, but instead drove the surrounding air, forming a whirlpool and carrying away towards Lin Tian.
Lin Tian's face turned pale, and he tightly covered the wound on his shoulder with one hand, but it could only make the bleeding speed a little slower. The other held a broken short knife in his hand, barely resisting. Suddenly, for some reason, he didn't see the competition between Yue Bufan and Zhang Jing at that time, but with the few words he heard from others, a person covered in blood appeared in his mind!
At this moment, Lin Tian was blasted out again, and the dust on the table was shocked to dissipate in all directions with his body as the center. He suddenly felt that his whole body was sore, and he tried to get up with one hand on the ground, but suddenly found that the palm that was covering his shoulder just now was full of shocking blood, and the fingers that stuck to him were filled with terrifying warmth! He looked at his hand, and suddenly began to feel uneasy, and suddenly lost his will to fight, and he did not want to follow in Zhang Jing's footsteps.
Yue Bufan saw that the other party was kneeling on one knee and didn't get up, he sneered, and another fan was waved, and the blue light came like a flying swallow, Lin Tian didn't react at all, this time, his whole body was lying on the ground.
"Uh......" Lin Tian looked at the clear blue sky, and suddenly had a thought in his heart: I will die...... If this continues, I'll die!
Yue Bufan looked at Lin Tian with a strange look on the ground, and sneered: "What's the matter? Who are you better than that? Zhang Jing, it's far behind!
Lin Tian's mind was blank for a while, his ears were full of buzzing, and for a moment he just slowly fell to the ground and half crouched on the ground, panting heavily.
"The competition is just to determine the winner and loser, and if you don't decide life or death, you can just admit defeat!" Elder Yizitai frowned and shouted loudly.
Lin Tian seemed to come back to his senses suddenly, as if he had grasped a life-saving straw, and opened his mouth to say: "I ......" Before he finished speaking, he only felt a strong wind pour into his mouth, and all that was left was a whimper and a white phantom in his eyes!
Lin Tian was already unconscious, and when he heard a "bang", he knew that it was the sound of himself falling to the ground! Then he slowly closed his eyes.
Suddenly, an afterimage flashed to Lin Tian's side, and he directly took out a pill, broke his mouth and stuffed it in. It was the elder of Yizitaiβββ Wu Xiang.
Listening to the angry voice of the audience, Wu Xiang flashed directly in front of Yue Bufan, and the distance between the two was so close that they looked close to each other from a distance.
"Why don't you stop?" Wu Xiang's face was full of anger, staring at Yue Bufan's face, and asked coldly.
Yue Bufan said with a stunned expression: "What does Elder Wu mean? He can't beat him, and he refuses to admit defeat, how can he blame me?"
Wu Xiang looked at him with an innocent expression and tone, squinted his eyes, and said: "Yesterday in the A-shaped platform, it is not under my control, today in my B-shaped platform, it is not a place for you to do nonsense!"
Wu Xiang was so angry in his heart that his voice was slightly sharp and harsh. However, Yue Bufan was at a loss, and said in surprise: "Elder Wu, you mean yesterday's Jiazitai, is it to blame Elder Yue for dereliction of duty?"
"Could it be that Lin Tian is a person from your meditation hall, so he can't lose? Besides, if you don't have eyes in the sword test, there will naturally be an accident. It's Elder Wu's disciple who is just lowly in Taoism!"
Wu Xiang was already stupid, but when he heard Yue Bufan's clever tongue, his face became even more ugly, and he said fiercely: "What? Do you also want to see if my Taoism is low or not!"
The two people on the stage looked at each other, and the atmosphere was heavy. Li Mengru just wanted to get up, but was dragged by Chen Zhiyi, shook her head and signaled not to get involved.
Just as the tension on the stage was tense, suddenly a slender figure fell from the sky. It was Yu Xinshuang, who saw her frowning and asked lightly, "Elder Wu, what's the matter?"
Wu Xiang was thinking about what to say, but it was Yue Bufan who opened his mouth first to explain: "That's the case, Miss Yu, I had an accident with Elder Wu's apprentice in the competition, and then ......."
No one interrupted, but Yue Bufan's voice gradually disappeared, because from beginning to end, the cold woman in front of him didn't look at him!
Wu Xiang also recalled what he had just now, and also found that he was angry with a junior and lost his identity, so he suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "It's not a big deal, I have to worry about the surplus girl." β
Yu Xinshuang glanced at Lin Tian, who was fainting on the ground, and said lightly: "Elder Wu is polite, this is a matter for the juniors. If it's okay, it's good. β
"Although I came here this time on the orders of my mentor...... Yu Xinshuang said softly, as if she was slightly sarcastic, but she couldn't see her expression, "However, if the final candidate can't get into my eyes, then it won't be able to go." β
Wu Xiang glanced at the woman in front of him meaningfully, his mood seemed to be much better, and he smiled and said, "Hehe, Miss Yu's words are the words of the Cloud City Lord, that is natural." β
Yu Xinshuang's words were very light, but they hit Yue Bufan's heart like a stone, he knew that this was said to him, he looked at the beautiful and peerless woman in front of him, he only felt that his face was a little hot, and even the hand holding the fan was extremely hard.
"Then don't bother Elder Wu, the juniors will go down first. β
The woman turned around slowly and left, without even looking at Yue Bufan, even a glance!
The wind blew slowly, and it was noon in a blink of an eye. And Jiang Ming also narrowly won in the second round and successfully entered the third round.
......
The Palace of Cultivating the Heart, because Jiang Ming and Li Mengru both won in the second round, was also a voice of joy at the moment.
"Dad, how is it? Are you happy?" Li Mengru asked with wide eyes at Li Changfeng, who was sitting in the chair.
Li Changfeng glanced at him, continued to taste the tea slowly, and after a long time, he said, "What's the matter?
Jiang Ming smiled, and he was extremely happy in his heart. But Li Mengru suddenly glanced at herself, and said to herself: "I don't know who it is, every day I say that my junior brother is not a weapon?"
Li Changfeng took another sip of tea, ignored it, just looked at Yu Xinshuang, and said, "Miss Yu, I already know about the morning, we are a small place, and there are quite a lot of things, so I'm really bothering you." β
Yu Xinshuang said: "Elder Li is serious, this is my business. β
"That Yue Zhuo father and son, it's really bad!" Li Mengru took over the conversation and said indignantly.
"Hmph! I've forgotten the lesson from last time, right, I don't know what disaster is coming from my mouth!" Li Changfeng suddenly put down the teacup with a serious face.
Li Mengru also did not admit defeat, and continued to reply: "They have done too much, why don't they let me say it!"
Li Changfeng's face suddenly turned gloomy, and he said angrily: "You still talk back! Look at how many losses you have to suffer in order to remember it for a long time!"
Jiang Ming saw that the two wanted to quarrel again, and suddenly remembered something, and said to Li Mengru: "Hey, senior sister, why did you say that the master looks at people accurately, otherwise you will regret it?"
Li Mengru seemed to be in a bad mood when she mentioned this, snorted coldly, and said angrily: "You ask your master." β
For a while, Jiang Ming didn't know whether to ask or not, and was hesitating. I only heard Li Changfeng say slowly: "That was many years ago, and it was ...... back then."
Li Changfeng sighed and raised his head, as if caught in a memory.
"Back then, your sister and I took Ru'er around, and finally settled in this small Taoyuan Villa. When I first arrived here, Yue Zhuo was very enthusiastic about me, and I had a good relationship with him. However, as we got along with each other, I found that our personalities were incompatible, so I deliberately stayed away. How did he suddenly propose to be good with me? At that time, Ru'er was still young, and his son Yue Bufan had been competitive since he was a child, so I was unwilling to do it, so I politely refused. β
Speaking of this, Li Mengru couldn't help but say angrily: "Fortunately, I didn't decide on a marriage at that time, otherwise what should I do now?
Li Changfeng glared at her and said softly: "After being politely rejected by me, Yue Zhuo mentioned it a few more times, but I pushed it back. That Yue Zhuo is also very competitive, thinking that I have refuted his face. On that day, he waved his sleeves away, and he never stepped into this heart cultivation hall again. β
"Hmph, this Yue Zhuo is really small-minded, just because of this incident, how many years have passed, and he is still targeting our Heart Cultivation Hall everywhere. Li Mengru said angrily to Li Changfeng again.
Li Changfeng lowered his head slightly, couldn't see his expression, and said in a low voice: "After so many years, think about it, I am also at fault." If we hadn't deliberately stayed away from each other at that time, but had run in with each other, maybe it wouldn't have caused the current situation. β
Jiang Ming didn't expect that there would be such an inside story, and he also smacked his tongue secretly. Senior Sister almost had a marriage contract with Yue Bufan, and there was an indescribable feeling in her heart, thinking that Senior Sister was almost Yue Bufan's, and she felt sad in her heart. Thinking of Yue Bufan's arrogant appearance again, if he encountered the sparks rubbed by a woman like Senior Sister who was not afraid of heaven and earth, he secretly snickered again.
Jiang Ming's mind was wild, but on the current occasion, he looked serious and thoughtful, and no one noticed his abnormality.
"Ming'er, after passing the first two rounds, are you sure about the next competition?" Li Changfeng, who was relieved from his memories, suddenly stared at him and asked.
"Uh...... Master, the first two rounds were all disciples...... Luckily, I don't know ...... third round" Jiang Ming quickly emptied his mind, but he still didn't dare to look directly at Li Changfeng's gaze because of the absurd thoughts just now.
Looking at Jiang Ming, who was bowing his head and submissive, for some reason, Li Changfeng was slightly dissatisfied in his heart, and said, "I'm not blaming you, what does it mean to keep your head down, can't you be more open?"
At this time, Jiang Ming's head lowered even deeper, but Yu Xinshuang said calmly: "Elder Li, when it comes to the competition, not only must we pay attention to our mental and physical fitness, but also the magic weapons and weapons are also heavy. Although Senior Brother Jiang is flexible and vigorous, his mental skills are slightly poor, and he has no weapons, so he is naturally unsure. β
Listening to Yu Xinshuang's faint voice, relieving himself of the siege, Jiang Ming couldn't help but cast a grateful gaze, which happened to be opposite her gaze, and couldn't help but suffocate for a moment, and then smiled a little woodenly.
Li Mengru also remembered something, and suddenly clapped her hands and said, "Yes, junior brother doesn't have weapons yet." Hey, what weapon do you want to use?"
Jiang Ming didn't know what he should use for a while, and while he was thinking about it, Li Mengru stuffed her long sword into Jiang Ming's hand with one hand, and said with joy in her eyes: "Do you want to see how easy it is?" If you use a sword, it just so happens that Senior Sister can teach you!"
Jiang Ming was stunned to hold the hilt of the sword with residual warmth, Huo Ran raised his head, looked at Li Mengru's hopeful eyes, and the faint fragrance in the air, and said softly: "Okay." β
