Chapter 686: The Origin of the Tribute Power Competition
Cao Min impressed everyone in Yuxianmen and became the center of attention, while Lu Yi instead became an irrelevant spectator and was completely ignored.
Lu Yi was happy and relaxed, and returned to the restaurant to eat by himself, while listening to Zhang Su'e introduce the situation of Yuxianmen to Cao Min......
It turned out that the old head of the Yuxian Sect died suddenly a few years ago, which caused a significant weakening of the sect's strength. Shenlimen took the opportunity to stir up trouble and tried to seize the territory under the jurisdiction of Yuxianmen. Yuxianmen knew that it was difficult to compete with the other party, so he asked the Lotus Heart Sect to come forward to solve it. However, the Lotus Heart Sect did not want to take care of it, but just let the two sides settle the dispute by competition, and the winner could have the right to govern several cities at the junction of the two factions. So, after negotiation, the two factions came up with a tributary contest - each side sent ten young disciples under the age of 30 to compete in the ring, and the winner had the right to govern the border city for one year, and then continued to fight in the same way after the expiration of the period.
After listening to the introduction, Cao Min couldn't help but feel pressure, "In this way, this competition is really important! Yi Niang thinks, can I defeat that genius disciple of the Divine Power Gate?"
Zhang Su'e shook her head, "It's really hard to say, that guy has profound skills, he is also very fast, he is good at using a giant sword, and his lethality is very amazing, the disciples who have fought against him in the past three years have died one, and the rest are almost dead, and they ended up seriously injured." Therefore, I hope that you will not be reluctant at that time, and if you are not defeated, you must admit defeat as soon as possible, so as not to be poisoned by them!"
Cao Min couldn't help frowning when he heard this, "Although the sword has no eyes, but stepping into our realm, it is not difficult to stop at the point, there are such heavy casualties, it is obviously that guy did it on purpose, how vicious his heart is! I can't let him go!"
Zhang Su'e was even more worried, and said: "Xiao Min, you have to stay sober, don't make a mistake for the sake of fighting for a while! If you make a mistake, and then the Heavenly Sect investigates it, my Yuxian Sect can't afford it!"
Cao Min smiled disapplausively: "Yi Niang don't worry about this, the Taishang Elder who is the most powerful in the Heavenly Sect is my fiancΓ©, and he allowed me to participate in the competition, no matter what the consequences are, I will definitely not be held accountable to you." β
Everyone in Yuxian Sect was shocked when they heard this, Zhang Su'e digested it for a while, and said with a complicated expression: "That Elder Taishang should be very old, right?" Although he has a respected status, but Xiao Min, you are still so young and talented, you can have a better choice, are you too wronged yourself?"
Cao Min laughed, pointed to Lu Yi at the adjacent table and said, "Yiniang, look at him, how old is he?"
Everyone was puzzled when they heard it, and Zhang Su'e was also confused, and it took a while to comprehend, and said in disbelief: "This little boy is the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sect? How is it possible? Don't joke!"
Cao Min smiled even more proudly and said, "I'm really not joking, believe it or not, he doesn't care anyway." In fact, my martial arts are all taught by him, if he is willing to make a move, he can sweep away all the young disciples of the Divine Power Sect alone!"
When everyone in Yuxian Gate heard this, they all looked at Lu Yi, and their eyes were extremely complicated.
Although Zhang Su'e was full of suspicion, and even had doubts about Cao Min's true identity, she thought that the other party didn't need to lie to herself, so she could only choose to believe it temporarily, and hurriedly set up to salute Lu Yi, saying: "I don't know the identity of the son, it's really disrespectful!"
Lu Yi said that he was powerless to complain about Cao Min's mouth, so he could only glare at her fiercely, and then responded to Zhang Su'e with a smile: "Master Zhang's words are serious, don't listen to Cao Min's nonsense, she and I are just ordinary casual cultivators who travel around." However, we do have some relationship with the Heavenly Sect, and the high-level members of the sect have a good relationship with me, and Cao Min thinks that there is no problem with receiving the disciples of the Heavenly Sect, and you don't have to worry about who will pursue it. β
Everyone in Yuxian Sect believed it when they heard it, and they all breathed a sigh of relief.
After eating, everyone in Yuxianmen opened a guest room in the restaurant to rest according to the practice of previous years, and Lu Yi and Cao Min of course stayed.
In the guest room, Lu Yi said to Cao Min angrily: "There is a way to say only three points when people meet, not to throw away a piece of heart, you are good, show what hole cards to others...... The rivers and lakes are sinister, miss!"
Cao Min also knew that he was not cautious enough, but he retorted: "I don't think the people of that Yuxian Sect are bad, and it doesn't hurt to say a few half-truths." β
Lu Yi was speechless, and Cao Min hurriedly fell into his arms and coquettish...... This trick worked, and the little enemy immediately softened, and the two kissed again.
......
The next day, Zhang Su'e came early to invite Lu Yi and Cao Min to have a hearty breakfast.
Afterwards, everyone set off together and walked to the martial arts venue not far away.
There is a large lake full of lotus flowers in the city of Liantang, hence the name. There is a small island in the lake with a radius of several hundred meters more than 200 meters from the shore, and the tribute contest is specially arranged to be held on this small island. The people who eat melons can only watch from a distance on the shore of the lake, which avoids being injured by mistake, and also puts an end to the interference of the process of fighting martial arts.
At this time, the lakeshore has long been surrounded by people who came to see the excitement, which can be described as three layers inside and three layers outside, and the water is impassable.
However, when Yuxianmen and his party arrived at the lake, the audience consciously moved out of the way without any obstacles.
On a special ship, Yusenmen and his entourage boarded the island.
I saw that there was an earthen platform more than one meter high in the center of the island, and there was no guardrail around it, and the length and width were about 100 meters, and it was square...... Needless to say, this is the ring used in the jousting competition.
On the north side, there were already three people standing at this time, and there was a flag next to it, and the flag was written on it-Lotus Heart Sect Judges.
These three people are all old men, and the one in the middle is an old woman, with a strong cultivation in the latter part of the Harmony Realm, and the two people next to him are both old men, and their cultivation is in the middle of the Harmony Realm. The three old guys who are so powerful are naturally the magistrates sent by the Lotus Heart Sect to supervise the tributary competition.
When everyone in Yuxian Gate saw these three people, they hurriedly stepped forward to salute respectfully.
Zhang Su'e bowed and said, "The three elders have worked hard!"
The old woman smiled and responded: "It's not hard, we rarely go out of the mountain gate of the Lotus Heart Sect, and it's not bad to take such an opportunity to come out for a walk every year." Don't be polite, get ready for a martial arts competition. β
At this moment, the people from the Shenli Gate also landed on the island, and hurriedly came over to greet the three old guys.
The leader of the Divine Power Gate is an old man in his seventies, with a strong aura, and his cultivation is a small realm higher than that old woman, reaching the peak of the Harmony Realm. However, when it comes to actual skills, he is slightly inferior to the old woman, and this is the difference caused by the different levels of cultivation exercises.
On either side of this old man were two young and beautiful women, leading ten male and female disciples to salute the three Lotus Heart Sect elders.
The old woman glanced at the two women beside the old man, and said with a teasing tone: "Master Shi Cong, after so many years, you still don't change your romantic nature, and you have to bring two concubines on this occasion." β
Shi Cong smiled awkwardly and said, "Let the Great Elder see the smile! The two of them have never seen the world, so they have to come and see the lively ......."
