Chapter 81: Green Robe Tower

Chizhong Prefecture, with the duel between the two heavenly beauties approaching, was extremely lively and prosperous. The people coming and going had smiles on their faces, and their clothes were not bad, with very few patches.

As for beggars and the like, Jiang Ding hadn't seen any since entering the city.

It was impossible to imagine that just tens of miles away, groups of famine victims were fleeing with their entire families, trying their best just for a bite to eat.

Jiang Ding walked on the street with his sword, looking at the street scene, his thoughts flying.

"The Marquis of East Town has rebelled!"

"Yesterday I saw masked men in black posting manifestos to 'rectify the monarch's side' everywhere. I only dared to glance at it and didn't dare to look more. Now the constables are searching for suspects everywhere!"

Even the duel between the two beauties couldn't cover up this shocking news. Many people were whispering mysteriously, their faces full of worry.

"I lost."

(Author's note: This novel is first published on 【Platform】, please go there to read!)

"People in the top twenty of the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking have mastered attribute power?"

When Jiang Ding arrived, it was crowded with people, lively and extraordinary, and mostly young martial artists, both men and women.

Killing intent permeated, yet it was as beautiful as a painting.

"So it is the eldest daughter of the Four Seas Chamber of Commerce, who relies on the support of the Founding Emperor and gained power as a servant." Chen Xi said lightly: "What virtue or ability do I have to be shown mercy by you?"

Long Xiuyun bit her lip, looking pitiful, then bid farewell and retreated.

Jiang Ding arrived late and could only watch from a very far place on the periphery. Fortunately, with Internal Qi support, he could see clearly.

"Yes, Sister Caiyu should keep a few more eyes open."

Contrary to Jiang Ding's expectations, 'Ice Glass Fairy' Long Xiuyun did not show the slickness of a merchant's daughter, nor did she hold back in the slightest during the battle. Instead, she used a kind of resilience to gradually turn the situation around and suppress Chen Xi.

Hundred Flower Young Master Wan You gave earnest advice, having a very poor impression of Jiang Ding: "What good things can come from someone called Sword Demon?"

Jiang Ding glanced at Gong Caiyu.

"No... not..." Gong Caiyu's small face turned completely red, stuttering: "The Young Master is not my... my... that."

Jiang Ding walked past silently.

Gong Caiyu shook her head and didn't say much.

Chen Xi and a circle of women around her smiled.

Of course, even if he had come early, it would have been useless. With such a pile of young prodigies, his appearance as a down-and-out sword guest in his forties didn't fit in.

Amidst the attention of all, the two heavenly beauties took the stage. Both used swords. Between Long Xiuyun's sword movements, water mist filled the air, occasionally condensing into water droplets, and no matter how strong the attack was, it was dissolved layer by layer.

This is another path of martial artists, which should have put forward very high requirements for soul strength and understanding of spells, and can possess huge advantages in cold weapon combat.

"Alas, Miss Gong will understand after experiencing more things."

Many young heroes under the stage watched without blinking, and many seemed to have gained some insight.

If the situation in Chizhou is not an exception, the Marquis of East Town, Tang Wang, might have a glimmer of hope to sweep the world and create a new dynasty.

"I wonder if Princess Clear River has made any further progress?"

All the specialization points of the "Young Eagle Taking Flight Art" were used to improve the efficiency of nourishing the body's meridians; apart from refinement and immunity to attribute suppression, there was nothing else.

Gong Caiyu stood up from time to time, stood on tiptoe, jumped up to look around, and then sat down in disappointment.

However, the 4th on the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking is already one of the strongest people below Innate.

Chen Xi is another style. The sword momentum is like a green phoenix in the nine heavens, swift and unparalleled. Between the dancing palace skirts, she has already attacked eighteen swords continuously, with faint wind sounds, breaking through layers of water mist, and the splashing water droplets hit the ground, creating pits.

There are many young ladies who have a good impression of Wan You on weekdays helping out. With preconceived notions, they also have no good feelings for this person they have never met.

Water, the power of extreme softness, is not known for explosive power.

Just thinking about Princess Clear River's appearance, family background, and strength, she couldn't help but feel discouraged.

Amidst the warbling and fluttering, the well-spoken young martial arts heroes wove through the crowd, each showing off their full repertoire. From time to time, young girls were teased into fits of giggles, and the scent of hormones filled the air.

"I naturally won't blame Clear River, just, just..."

Without calculating the family background, in the eyes of many, she is already the top choice for a partner.

As one of the Four Beauties of the jianghu, she is naturally very beautiful, and unlike Chen Xi, who has a sense of oppression, she is like a neighbor's little sister, a flower under the warm spring sun, making people instinctively feel close and let down their guard.

"Her Royal Highness the Princess is of royal blood, Xiuyun is very happy to be able to take a move or two from you." 'Ice Glass Fairy' Long Xiuyun smiled sweetly.

The words were thorny.

Jiang Ding thought.

The battle on the stage became more and more intense.

Chen Xi pushed him away a few steps with a flick of her sleeve, coldly said, and left without looking back, followed by a group of maids.

Other young ladies and Dragon-Phoenix Ranking beauties felt a bit jealous in their hearts.

Besides the vast ring in the center, the other two focuses were naturally the Ice Glass Pavilion and Clear River Tower where Long Xiuyun and Chen Xi were located.

There were no Innate experts in their families, so they didn't dare to say anything heavy and offend people.

"Hee hee."

Hei Jin was like this, that Hundred Flower Young Master Wan You, and the two above were also like this.

His heartache turned into rage, he slapped out with a palm, and roared: "What are you doing?!"

'Clear River Fairy' Chen Xi's face was very ugly: "After this time, I will never step into Chizhong Prefecture again."

The Immortal Sect naturally doesn't need it, it's useless.

A water-colored long sword was placed on her swan-like neck.

Wan You was heartbroken and hurriedly went up to comfort her softly.

Wan You was lost, and suddenly his heart felt a sharp pain. Looking down, a pitch-black iron needle had been inserted into his chest at some point.

At the ring in the city.

"Clear River, you don't have to take it too much to heart..."

While joking, a young girl surrounded by the crowd came before everyone. "Greetings to Her Royal Highness the Princess, I hope the Princess will show mercy." 'Ice Glass Fairy' Long Xiuyun smiled sweetly.

The words were thorny.

Jiang Ding thought.

Chen Xi seized the flaw several times and tried to assassinate, forcing Long Xiuyun back more than ten steps, breaking through one after another water-like sword qi, but in the end, she still couldn't win, and was defeated under the crushing momentum of the Yangtze River sword momentum accumulated by the other side.

But once a little bit of accumulation formed a monstrous wave, destroying cities and destroying countries was nothing more than a leisure.

There are fewer women in the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking than men, plus those who don't like this kind of excitement, the Ice Glass Pavilion and Clear River Tower combined have only a dozen women on the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking.

"No."

"Hiss~, Wolf God Sect, I'm afraid the whole south is going to be in chaos!"

After speaking, she landed on the ring and left without looking back.

"Miss Gong is too simple, don't be deceived by that guy's intentional approach."

The 19th on the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking was ultimately no match for the 18th! Under the ring, many people sighed and shook their heads, and many cheered, not fearing the royal family.

She was relatively close to Princess Clear River Chen Xi. It seemed that she was also quite valued, but she was not used to this kind of social occasion, her face tense, and she stuttered when young heroes came to talk to her from time to time.

"Sister Caiyu, are you looking to see if your lover has come?" Chen Xi teased.

Hundred Flower Young Master Wan You, 11th on the Dragon-Phoenix Ranking, his mother is an Innate expert of the Purple Wei Sword Sect, and the key is that he is particularly good-looking, dedicated, and has no evil reputation in the jianghu. He is simply the best candidate for a husband.

Amidst the buzzing discussion, a team of constables patrolled the street, and the people around hurriedly closed their mouths, quiet for a while.

This is a very bad result for him, perhaps he has to flee the Yue Kingdom.

!.

Wan You sighed, stopped persuading, and put his gaze on Chen Xi again, the tenderness in his eyes as if it had become honey, and they hadn't separated for a long time.

Naturally, there were also lady-in-waiting who had undergone strict training with guilty expressions, repeatedly expressing apologies on behalf of their master: "Young Master Wan, the Princess was just ashamed and angry for a moment, please don't take it to heart."

Bang! The lady-in-waiting didn't notice her chest being smashed, her expression wooden: "Green robes replace others in disaster, send you into reincarnation!"

After speaking, she died.

The surroundings were silent.

Chen Xi's face showed shock and anger, and she hurried back, only to see that Wan You's handsome face was already pitch black, and he was also dead.
