Liuyun Sword Sect 106
Ji Yun's eyes lit up, and he said passionately, "In this case, take the opportunity, how about we have the last competition, I'm afraid there will be no chance in the future!"
"What is the last game, it's not like I'm not coming back, what's going on with you guy today, it's a little weird!" Lu Chen looked at Ji Yun who was a little abnormal in surprise.
Ji Yun said indifferently: "It's nothing?"
"I'll go back and prepare later, I won't compete with you today, after all, this experience is not as simple as before!" Lu Chen said with a smile, he had competed with Ji Yun several times, and each time it was a point-to-point stop, his strength was able to improve rapidly, thanks to Ji Yun, a good friend. As the days went by, the relationship between the two grew deeper.
Ji Yun said coldly: "Lu Chen, promise me one thing, okay?"
"Tell me about it?" Lu Chen was stunned for a moment, and then smiled.
Ji Yun took a deep breath and said, "If one day, we become enemies, as opponents, I hope you don't keep your hands and go all out!"
"What are you talking about, Ji Yun, are you having something full of me!" Lu Chen stared at Ji Yun, who was strange today, and suddenly said in a deep voice.
Ji Yun turned his head to look at the ethereal snow-capped mountains in the distance, his eyes were as deep as the sea, and he sighed lightly: "It's nothing, I just think, sometimes, I really wish we weren't friends!"
"What nonsense are you talking about, you have a sad face all day long, can you smile more? Tang Xuan, this girl, has been relying on you a lot lately, this girl is very good, but you have to take advantage of the opportunity! I have always regarded you as a confidant, I hope you also have a friend like me in your heart!" Lu Chen said with a smile.
"Okay, don't be sensational, it's not too early, you go back and prepare quickly, you have to rush down the mountain early tomorrow morning, I wish you success." Seeing Lu Chen's serious expression, Ji Yun was silent for a moment, and said with a smile on his cold face.
Lu Chen quipped: "Well, that's right, why do you guys keep your face tight all day long, smile more, won't it be fine!" He smiled and patted Lu Chen's shoulder, and then left indifferently.
Ji Yun stared at Lu Chen's back, and didn't shake his head secretly: "Lu Chen, you are too affectionate, sooner or later, you will suffer a big loss!"
On the second day, Lu Chen set off with some clothes, daily necessities, a soft sword and another heavy sword, and came to the Lock Sword Blade Hall.
In the main hall, Shangguan Qingyun, the sect master, and many important people were sitting there, and it seemed that they had been waiting for a long time, in addition, there was a group of people standing under the main hall, all of whom were Sword Sect disciples in regular clothes, and there were forty of them.
And two of the leading three are acquaintances that Lu Chen knows, Murong Ziyun, Han Wenqing, and Teng Qinglei, all of whom are proud figures of the younger generation of the Sword Sect. For this mission, so many elite disciples were dispatched, which showed how much the sect master valued Najia Tianpeng.
"Disciple Lu Chen, see the sect master!" Lu Chen walked straight into the main hall and hugged his fists.
Murong Xuan sat on the top of the main hall, exuding a high-ranking momentum, a pair of majestic eyes swept over all the Sword Sect disciples in the main hall, and said loudly: "Very good, you are all here! Let me briefly tell you, this mission is extraordinary, this afternoon, you will escort my friend Jia Tianpeng out of Qingzhou, his identity is very special, there will definitely be a lot of trouble on the journey, you need to work together to complete this mission, and when the time comes, you will be rewarded for your meritorious deeds." I have discussed with many elders, and the itinerary for this journey will be led by Lu Chen, assisted by Murong Ziyun, Han Wenqing, and Teng Qinglei. Remember, don't worry about anything else!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall looked at Lu Chen, who looked a little stunned, and immediately caused a commotion, jealousy, envy, all kinds of things.
This Lu Chen was just a newcomer, how could he be so favored by the sect master? Many disciples were a little puzzled.
"Sect Master, is there something unknown to the disciple?" At this moment, the core disciple below, Teng Qinglei, suddenly interjected.
"Teng Qinglei, don't make trouble!" Zhao Canghai, the first seat of the White Tiger Courtyard, shouted. Teng Qinglei was a disciple of his White Tiger Academy, and if he dared to question the sect master's decision in front of so many people, he would be severely punished.
The sudden sound made many people in the hall look at the burly and rough-looking Teng Qinglei below.
"It's okay to say it directly!" Murong Xuan said in a majestic tone.
Teng Qinglei had a cold face, pointed at Lu Chen, and said: "Lu Chen has only been here for less than half a year in my Liuyun Sword Sect, and he lacks qualifications, how can he lead this mission, and the disciple is not convinced!"
He Teng Qinglei grew up in the Sword Sect since he was a child, and he belongs to the core disciples, looking at the entire Sword Sect, he is also a man of the year among the younger generation, and as a peerless genius, he naturally has his arrogance. The status and qualifications are in front of him, far higher than Lu Chen, how can he be convinced if he is under the leadership of a newcomer.
Murong Xuan smiled and said, "Then what do you say you should do?"
"If you want me to be convinced, it's very simple, try to compete with me, if he Lu Chen wins, he will be qualified to lead me! But if he loses, he will be under the jurisdiction of my Teng Qinglei. Teng Qinglei said in a rough voice, speaking so briskly, he was obviously a straight person.
Murong Ziyun said unhappily: "Sect Master, the task is imminent, it is not appropriate to delay, Hugh has to listen to Teng Qinglei's nonsense here." Although Lu Chen has only been in the Sword Sect for a short time, he was able to defeat Liu Chun of the White Tiger Courtyard and draw with Senior Brother Su, which is enough to show his strength. Besides, I went down the mountain with him some time ago to practice, and I saw that he acted steadily and had rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and he was qualified to lead this mission, and we are willing to be under his jurisdiction!"
Teng Qinglei looked at Murong Ziyun in surprise, when did the senior sister, who has always had a high temperament, start speaking for a newcomer?
Could it be that what Senior Brother Su said was true?
"If Lu Chen doesn't even dare to accept my challenge, what qualifications do he have to lead me and others, can it be said that on the way to escort others, he still needs me to protect him when he encounters danger?" Teng Qinglei said contemptuously, being under the jurisdiction of a newcomer, he would definitely not be happy as a core disciple.
"Lu Chen, what do you think?" Murong Xuan looked at Lu Chen, who was silent.
Lu Chen glanced at Teng Qinglei, who was full of arrogance next to him, and said, "The disciple is willing to accept the challenge!" Since the sect master values himself so much, of course he can't back down, and he must dare to show his strength when he comes out.
"Hmph, just wait for your words!" Teng Qinglei snorted coldly, full of fighting spirit.
Murong Xuan smiled and said, "Since this is the case, then you can even try it in this hall, stop at the point, don't hurt the harmony!"
Hearing what the sect master said, the disciples in the main hall retreated one after another, giving up a piece of open space to Lu Chen and the two, looking at the two of them with anticipation, one is the peerless genius who ranks fourth on the Heavenly Sword List, and the other is the newcomer who is in the limelight, it can be described as a strong collision, who will be superior in the end?
Holding a slender arc-shaped scimitar, Teng Qinglei came to Lu Chen's front, licked his thick lips lightly, and said contemptuously: "Lu Chen, this is the first time I have seen you in person, I have been practicing outside before, and I have only recently returned to the sect, and I heard everywhere that a great genius has appeared in the Qinglong Academy." When I see you today, I don't think you're good!"
Lu Chen took out the soft sword he was carrying, handed the other items to Han Wenqing on the side, and laughed loudly: "You are the peerless genius Teng Qinglei who ranks fourth on the Heavenly Sword List, I heard that your sword skills are very powerful, and I have never had the opportunity to see it, but I just have the opportunity to learn it today, Senior Brother Teng must be merciful!"
Although most of the disciples in the Liuyun Sword Sect are practicing swords, the sect does not stipulate that other disciples cannot learn other weapons, this Teng Qinglei is a different path, and he has practiced a very terrifying sword technique since he was a child, called "Blood Moon Scimitar"! In the Sword Sect, he has a great reputation, and Teng Qinglei can rely on this sword technique to rank fourth on the Heavenly Sword List, which shows that he is powerful.
"Hmph, don't worry. There is a saying that is ugly, there are no tigers in the mountains, and the monkey is called the king. I went down the mountain to train for more than half a year, and rarely returned to the sect. Recently, I've heard everywhere that you're a newcomer who is very showy, and you're about to overpower us old people. But do you think that if you can fight with Su Xingbai, you can act recklessly? Today I want you to understand, don't think that all the disciples of the Sword Sect are wine bags and rice bags, as a newcomer, you must also be a little self-aware!" Teng Qinglei pulled out the curved scimitar in his hand, circled around the field twice, and suddenly pointed at Lu Chen and shouted loudly.
Lu Chen gently stroked the flexible soft sword, and laughed in harmony: "Senior Brother Teng, isn't your waste a bit too much!"
"Boy, the tone is not small, take the knife first!" Teng Qinglei heard this, kicked the ground with the soles of his feet, and his body was like a fierce beast quickly pounced, and the scimitar in his hand quickly slashed an arc in the air, slashing towards Lu Chen with a sharp roar.
Brush, almost in the blink of an eye, the cold light flashed, and the blade arrived in front of Lu Chen's eyebrows.
"What a swift knife technique!" Lu Chen was secretly shocked in his heart, the soles of his feet were wrong, and the bridge of his nose was against the blade to avoid.
hissed, dodged at the same time, the soft sword in his hand shook rapidly, like a willow branch lightning towards the other party.
Teng Qinglei's eyes narrowed slightly, his wrist turned, and he quickly raised his knife and slapped it, and a light force came, and with a ding, the soft sword that was drawn instantly shook away.
