As soon as these words came out, they were silent.

Everyone was stunned, did Princess Chenling already have a place in her heart? No wonder no matter how the prince of the neighboring country came to propose, there was no hope of returning. Of course, there are not too many surprises that Princess Chenling has a heart, and the most surprising thing is that the person Princess Chenling fell in love with was actually Xiao Sheng, the number one swordsman in the world. When did they meet? That's the question everybody wants to know.

However, Li Guochang was obviously a person who knew the inside story, and he didn't ask much, but he looked lost and depressed.

After a while, Li Guochang spoke: "I can let them go." ”

Li Qin showed a surprised expression, and at the same time cautiously looked back at Xiao Sheng's reaction, but Xiao Sheng was not moved by what she had just said.

However, Ye Qiuli's face changed when he heard Li Guochang's words, and he slapped Xiao Sheng on the back of his neck with his palm, Xiao Sheng instantly lost consciousness and fell into Ye Qiuli's arms.

"But!" Li Guochang's tone suddenly became gloomy, "After this martial arts conference, you are going to marry the man who won the first title in the world!"

Li Qin's face turned pale all of a sudden, and she knew that once she agreed to this request, it would be impossible for her to have a chance to change it. Do you really want to exchange the happiness of your life for the life of a person who no longer loves herself? Li Qin was at a loss, she was not a saint, although her hope was slim, she was still thinking that one day she could return to her previous relationship with Xiao Sheng. If this condition had been granted, it would never have been possible. But if you don't say yes, isn't it even more impossible?

Li Qin was already desperate, she deeply felt her powerlessness, but she finally made up her mind, stared at Li Guochang's eyes and said word by word: "Follow the arrangement of my father!"

After finishing speaking, the surrounding Yulin Army disappeared without a trace in an instant, and then looked at the eaves, only a few crows were looking around.

Ye Qiuli respectfully hugged his fists at Li Qin to express his gratitude, and then quickly left the palace with Xiao Sheng, who was unconscious.

The people dispersed, leaving Li Qin alone to stand silently in the bleak cold wind, tears sliding down silently.

As soon as he returned to the mansion, Ye Qiuli hurriedly woke up Xiao Sheng, and regardless of Xiao Sheng's expression, you dared to stun me, and complained when he opened his mouth: "Careless, who knew that Li Guochang's old thief was actually treacherous, and he almost died in the palace today, so dangerous." ”

Xiao Sheng's face was still gloomy.

"But anyway, I've fulfilled my promise and it's time to leave. Ye Qiuli ignored Xiao Sheng's face and continued to speak casually.

"Why did you stun me?" Xiao Sheng saw that Ye Qiuli didn't intend to pay attention to him, and finally took the initiative to speak.

"Li Guochang is distressed that his daughter will definitely let us go, if you die, his daughter will be widowed, that's too bad. Ye Qiuli didn't answer Xiao Sheng's question directly, and half-jokingly wanted to bring this matter.

"So!why!" Xiao Sheng was already a little angry, and he seemed to vaguely guess the reason why Ye Qiuli knocked him unconscious.

Ye Qiuli saw that Xiao Sheng was already really angry, so he stopped joking and said lightly: "This matter will be talked about when we go out of the city first." ”

Xiao Sheng didn't speak again, and after briefly packing up his things with Ye Qiuli, he went out of the city overnight.

In the temple not far from the city, Xiao Sheng and Ye Qiuli gathered around a fire to keep warm.

"You can say it. At this time, Xiao Sheng's anger had subsided, and he looked extremely weak.

"Hmm. Ye Qiuli nodded, and was silent for a long time before slowly saying, "After this martial arts conference, Princess Chenling will get married." ”

Xiao Sheng was not surprised, and nodded and motioned for Ye Qiuli to continue.

Li Guochang asked the princess to marry the first in the world of this martial arts conference. Ye Qiuli glanced at Xiao Sheng, and finally said with difficulty, "This is the reason why I want to stun you, and the reason why we were able to leave unscathed." ”

Yes, Li Qin exchanged the happiness of her life for the lives of Xiao Sheng and Ye Qiuli.

Although Xiao Sheng had already guessed, he still couldn't help but clench his fists when he knew the truth.

After being silent again, Xiao Sheng slowly exhaled a breath, picked up Xiao Jian on the side, got up and said to Ye Qiuli: "No." I can't just walk away. ”

"Then what are you going to do? Save her? I know that you will definitely be able to save your martial arts, but what about after you are rescued? Where can she go? Will she follow you?" Ye Qiuli threw out one question after another, and Xiao Sheng was speechless.

However, Xiao Sheng still did not give up, and said: "But how can I look at her like this......" Speaking of this, Xiao Sheng suddenly found that he didn't know how to describe it, and he suddenly realized something.

Ye Qiuli sighed before saying, "It's just that you can't get over it in your heart, must she be unhappy if she marries the new number one in the world?"

Yes, why do you think that Li Qin will be unhappy because of this? Li Qin is the daughter of the current saint, after marrying the number one in the world, her status will only be higher, how can she not be happy?

"However, marrying a stranger ......" Xiao Sheng tried to persuade himself one last time, his heart was too tormented, watching a girl sacrifice so much for himself, he felt incompetent.

"Then who is she going to marry? I know what you want to say, you want to say that she loves you, and there is no love when she marries someone else, right?" Ye Qiuli began to be a little angry when she saw Xiao Sheng's wretched appearance, "But if she marries you, will she have love?" Whether she is happy or not depends not on whether she is married to the person she loves, but whether the person she marries loves her!"

Xiao Sheng sat down weakly, as if he had lost his soul. Ye Qiuli's words made him understand that all this was just his own self-esteem, he had never loved Li Qin, and his former liking had disappeared with that incident. Now he is not qualified to care about anything about Li Qin, even if this matter has something to do with him.

"Now your heart is in turmoil. Ye Qiuli looked at Xiao Sheng with some unbearable look, but he still continued, "But I still have to remind you that you still have two months to pick up your little junior sister, and it will take a month to travel overnight from here to the place where the Demon Sect is located." If you choose to save Li Qin now and don't want to take her with you, you can only win the martial arts conference. However, the martial arts conference will last for more than a month, and once you participate, you will not have time to pick up your little junior sister. I don't need to say more about the consequences. ”

Xiao Sheng leaned his head against the wall and closed his eyes in pain.

Early the next morning, when Ye Qiuli got up, he found that Xiao Sheng was not in the temple. Puzzled, Ye Qiuli walked out of the ruined temple and stretched out as he looked at the rising sun in the east.

How long has it been since I had such a leisurely time, Ye Qiuli at this moment really wanted to enjoy a rare leisure, however, there was no way, because Xiao Sheng was not around the temple.

"This guy, I really should say something good about him. Ye Qiuli obviously guessed Xiao Sheng's whereabouts, and said helplessly.

Five

At this time, Xiao Sheng was at the designated registration place of the martial arts conference, and one night, Xiao Sheng finally made a decision: Maybe what I did was wrong, but I still have to do it.

However, Xiao Sheng is not a dead heart, he decided that if he found that the person who had the ability to win the first place in the world had a good personality and was a good person, then he would leave early.

"Reach out. "The person in charge of signing up was obviously not very patient.

Xiao Sheng handed his hand to the man, and the man gently pinched it, and wrote a twenty-three year old on the registration form. The capital is worthy of being a place where Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, a simple martial arts conference registration point, there are people who can touch the bones and measure the age.

There are hard and fast rules for martial arts competitions, and people must be under the age of 25 to register. After all, the martial arts conference is more about selecting talents, and it doesn't make sense to be too old. And although the body of young people is stronger than that of the elderly, the gap in internal force makes it often impossible for young people to have the confidence to compete with the elderly. In this way, it is most appropriate to have an age limit.

After Xiao Sheng finished registering, he turned around and left the scene.

The news soon spread to the palace, and after hearing the news, Li Guochang almost vomited a mouthful of blood.

It's good that you Xiao Sheng, you actually came up with such a despicable method. Do you think you can be lawless if you are strong in martial arts? Let me tell you, this title of the world's number one is not something you want to take!

Li Guochang smiled coldly when he thought of this, and said to the eunuch kneeling below: "Prince Li Zi is here to see you." ”

After hearing this, the eunuch immediately retreated and shouted outside the hall: "Prince Chuan Li Zi is here to see you!"

After a while, Li Zixiu appeared in the main hall, bowed to Li Guochang and said, "Minister, see the emperor." ”

The reason why Xiaoyaozhuang is one of the top ten schools on the rivers and lakes is that in addition to the strength of Xiaoyaozhuang itself, it is more because the people of Xiaoyaozhuang are all direct blood relatives of the royal family and have orthodox royal blood. Although Xiaoyaozhuang has become independent of the royal family, this does not affect the friendly relationship between Xiaoyaozhuang and the royal family. And with this level of relationship, there are not many sects on the rivers and lakes that dare to provoke.

"The prince doesn't need to be polite, I have sent you here to tell you a piece of news. Li Guochang is obviously very satisfied with Li Zixiu's respectful performance, and Xiaoyaozhuang is a special existence for the royal family, if Li Zixiu doesn't want to pay attention to Li Guochang, Li Guochang is completely helpless.

"Is it the news that Xiao Sheng is going to participate in the martial arts conference?" Li Zixiu's expression was indifferent, looking extremely confident, "What if he participated? Now Xiao Sheng is no longer the number one in the world, he is already abolished." ”

"It seems that Xiaoyaozhuang's generation is really full of talents. Seeing Li Zixiu so confident, Li Guochang was in a good mood.

"That's natural, this martial arts conference will be the time when my Xiaoyaozhuang rises, and then Xiaoyaozhuang will no longer be one of the top ten sects, but the head of the top ten sects!" Li Zixiu's ambition has begun to be revealed, as for whether his real purpose is really just the head of the ten major sects, no one knows.
