Chapter 146: A big wave of fiancées is coming

At the Autumn Battle scene yesterday, after Seeing Ji You's final seven swords were all slashed, Chu He fell outside the field again, but soon stood up.

Although he was covered in blood, he seemed to be fine from his numb expression.

At that time, everyone thought Chu He was fine, thinking that the seven swords only caused skin wounds.

So they waited for the second match, waiting for more "Chu family foundation."

But in fact, although Chu He looked uninjured in skin and flesh at the time, his hand bones had already been broken by the heavy sword Qi.

If he had raised his hand at that time, maybe everyone would have seen the scene of two broken hands hanging with skin and flesh.

It is said that the Chu family was very nervous at the time and did not allow outsiders to contact Chu He.

The Management Court later sent a disciple to check Chu He's hands.

Saying broken is actually not quite appropriate, because those hands were actually already shattered.

It's just that the Management Court disciple felt strange that Chu He had no reaction at all, and had no painful expression, his gray eyes constantly staring, as if he had lost his soul.

Whether out of pity for his son or for other reasons, the Chu family head directly refused the second match and took Chu He away in a hurry.

It couldn't be fought, so the competition naturally ended.

Then the so-called best-of-three system had no need to continue.

Out of respect for the Chu family, the Management Court did not make this result public.

In fact, the results of the Autumn Battle in previous years were not deliberately announced to the outside world, because this struggle in the Outer Court of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was just a minor matter.

It was only because Seeing Ji You's reputation was too great, and Chu He had been the center of attention since entering the court, so this result was particularly concerning.

So from the autumn of the second year of Taichang to the autumn of the first year of Taiyuan, lasting nearly a year, that wild private cultivator famous throughout the world successfully entered the Inner Court, slashing all guesses with seven swords.

A wild private cultivator defeated a noble family disciple and walked onto Nishan.

At this time, Lu Qingqiu stood in the Wang Jiaoxi Building for a long time, and even the sound of the drizzling autumn rain outside the window seemed to be unheard.

Because although she knew Seeing Ji You was strong, after entering the Inner Court became a reality, she still felt like a dream.

No one would question Seeing Ji You's strength, because from the streets of Shengjing, to Qiling, to Lingjian Mountain, and then to the Ascending Immortal White Jade Terrace yesterday, the strength of Seeing Ji You's sword Dao was obvious to all.

And the reason she was dazed was still because of her identity.

This feeling is like a farmer facing the loess and backing the sky, defeating the aristocrats who eat and drink with bells and tripods with a hoe.

Wang Jiaoxi Ma was right, Seeing Ji You was just showing his divinity, and being close to the water tower can always get the moon first.

Lu Qingqiu pursed her red lips slightly, ripples born in her eyes.

"Have you heard, Seeing Ji You won."

"Heard it at noon, it is said that after the first match, Chu He's hands were already broken and he couldn't fight anymore."

"If that's the case, Seeing Ji You is going to enter the Inner Court...?"

"Who else could it be?"

In half a rainy day, the rumor about Chu He's hands being shattered spread in the Outer Court.

Many Outer Court students who learned this news couldn't help but look at each other, and the seven swords of yesterday couldn't help but appear in their minds again.

And at this moment, their feelings were almost the same as Lu Qingqiu's.

Even though they knew early on that Seeing Ji You was strong, the matter of a wild private cultivator entering the Inner Court still made them feel very unreal.

But in other words, if it wasn't him who entered the Inner Court this time, who else could it be?

"A sword that even Chu He couldn't block..."

"Actually we all know that wanting to survive in an immortal sect sometimes depends not on talent but on background. Inner Court Senior Sister Wen's talent is equivalent to He Lingxiu's, but she still lost because the Wen family is not as good as the He family, so Seeing Ji You was not selected into the Inner Court, but actually slashed open the Inner Court with a sword."

Slashing open the Inner Court with a sword, this sentence didn't know which disciple it came from, but then it was cited by many people.

And hearing this sentence, both Outer Court instructors and Management Court managers had complicated moods.

Because they all knew in their hearts that this sentence was actually true.

He walked all the way here, with thousands of obstacles, and truly slashed open the gate of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan's Inner Court with a sword.

And at this time, the news about "Chu He's hands being shattered" also gradually spread out of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, to Shengjing, and to the noble families in the capital.

In Chunhua Lane at this time, Dou Yuankong, with more than a dozen servants, was looking coldly at a small courtyard in the corner, his eyes gloomy.

"Have you checked clearly, he lives here?"

"Checked clearly, Young Master, the letters sent by Miss Wei every day were sent here."

Listening to the servant's reply, killing intent surged in Dou Yuankong's eyes.

He and Wei Rui of the Wei Prime Minister's Mansion were childhood sweethearts, and coupled with the fact that the elders in the family were very supportive, it was simply a heavenly marriage.

But in the past few days, Wei Rui always had letters sent to the residence of a sesame-sized official of the Immortal Supervision, to the top graduate scholar from the poor countryside.

The son of Minister Dou only felt that his head was green, if this can be tolerated, what cannot be tolerated.

In fact, Dou Yuankong knew about the existence of the Kuang-surnamed scholar as early as the spring when the refugees went north.

But at that time, because of the one in the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan, he didn't act impulsively.

But patience always has a limit...

However, just as he waved his hand, signaling the servants to break in, three guards wearing sabers stopped them, and then took Dou Yuankong from Xinghua Lane to the Hongxiang Teahouse.

Dou Yuankong didn't struggle, because he recognized that these guards came from the Prince of Chong's Mansion.

In less than a cup of tea, the son of Minister Dou was escorted to the teahouse and saw Princess Changle of the Prince of Chong's Mansion drinking tea by the window.

"Dou Yuankong, pays respects to the Princess."

Zhao Yunyue turned around: "The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan's Autumn Battle has ended."

Hearing this, Dou Yuankong couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

He thought the Princess called him over because the situation in the court was complicated and didn't allow him to cause extra trouble, but didn't expect it to be about the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan's Autumn Battle.

As the son of a high official in the court and a member of the pro-immortal faction, he naturally knew about the Inner Court struggle between Chu He and Seeing Ji You.

It is said that Seeing Ji You showed great power yesterday and slashed Chu He off the stage in the first match, which was truly beyond Dou Yuankong's expectations.

But he also knew how deep the noble family foundation was, especially a thousand-year noble family like the Chu family, whose existence time was almost equal to the history of the rise of the human race.

Even if he accidentally lost a match, in his view, Chu He would never lose.

But Princess Changle's expression at this time made his eyes widen slightly, realizing a situation he didn't want to see.

"Seeing Ji You won?"

Zhao Yunyue put down the teacup and nodded.

Dou Yuankong couldn't believe it: "How could he win? What about the second match?"

"There is no second match, because when the first match ended, Chu He's hands were already shattered. The Heavenly Tian Shuyuan has regulations, inability to continue and voluntary surrender are both considered the end of the Autumn Battle."

"Hands... broken?"

Zhao Yunyue spoke after a long silence: "Actually, saying broken is not quite accurate. I heard from a Management Court disciple that Chu He's hand bones were all shattered at the time."

Dou Yuankong gritted his teeth: "How could that poor countryside person from Fengzhou win?"

"But the fact is so, it's useless even if you don't want to believe it. After Seeing Ji You enters the Inner Court, his status will naturally be different, and he is very likely to become the only family head in Fengzhou. The scholar Wei Rui is in contact with is his close friend, you'd better be cautious in doing things."

"I am childhood sweethearts with Wei Rui, but she..."

Zhao Yunyue looked at Dou Yuankong with cold eyes: "The Azure Cloud World has always been immortal power supreme, do you think you can offend an Inner Court student at the Upper Five Realms of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan for the sake of children's love?"

Dou Yuankong fell into silence after hearing this, never thinking that the direction of things would be like this.

That wild private cultivator, with no background and facing the covetousness of a thousand-year noble family, actually walked into the Inner Court step by step.

Zhao Yunyue didn't care how ugly his face was at this moment, then floated away and went to a painting room to take a sheepskin paper bag.

Yesterday at the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan Autumn Battle, He Lingxiu sent the manuscript from the Lingjian Mountain disciple to copy a copy.

She paid the painter to copy another one separately.

At this time, the second copied painting and manuscript were in this paper bag. Opening it, one could see a white-robed swordsman with his upper body naked, jumping on the paper, with unparalleled immortal demeanor.

Sure enough, Lingjian Mountain was right.

Sword and youth are indeed a perfect match.

Zhao Yunyue put the painting manuscript in, held it in her arms, and her eyelashes trembled.

Cultivators have a longer lifespan than mortals, so they don't marry as early as mortals, but Zhao Yunyue is actually at the age to choose a husband.

Every year, the Prince of Chong invites disciples of the Seven Great Immortal Sects to the mansion, actually harboring such thoughts.

In previous years, although there were many young talents, Zhao Yunyue didn't have the thought of wanting to marry impatiently, but at this moment, she was moved.

At the beginning of the founding of Great Xia, the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan was regarded as the Holy Sect, and the first emperor also came from the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan.

So it is not uncommon for Inner Court students of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan to marry into the Great Xia royal family, so Zhao Yunyue wanted to meet Seeing Ji You, explore the other party's thoughts, and then ask the Emperor to grant the marriage.

Although Zhao Yunyue is not a disciple of the Seven Great Immortal Sects, she also worships an elder of Lingjian Mountain as her teacher.

From this point of view, she is actually already considered an Inner Court disciple of Lingjian Mountain, and can even be considered a personal disciple of an elder.

In her view, her status is quite a match for Seeing Ji You's.

So on this rainy day in early autumn, many letters were sent from Shengjing, from the Outer Court, and from all over the nine states to the small courtyard on the bank of Bishui Lake.

The letters contained handkerchiefs, silk sleeves, and other personal items, and even a young lady in the capital who was waiting to be married included a personal pink bellyband in the envelope.

The content of the letters was roughly the same, inviting Seeing Ji You to drink alone at a certain place at a certain time.

However, what these women didn't expect was that all those letters were returned.

Some were opened, but others even had the lead seals firmly stuck on them.

And when Princess Changle received the returned letter, a trace of incredulity rose in her eyes: "He won't see me? Can you explain clearly to him why I invited him to drink alone?"

The maid beside Princess Changle nodded: "Already used such explicit words as wanting to be a Dao companion with you..."

"Then he still doesn't want to?"

"Hmm..."

Zhao Yunyue couldn't help but widen her eyes, then became shy and annoyed: "Wanting to establish a noble family, offspring is the key, he still has to continue the bloodline, but he doesn't even look down on me? Could it be that he still wants to marry the Little Jianzhu of Lingjian Mountain?"

Among the women in the world, the most noble is the Little Jianzhu of Lingjian Mountain.

Princess Changle used her as an example, which was a sarcasm that he thought too highly of himself.

Zhao Yunyue was slightly startled, then became incredibly embarrassed and annoyed: "If he wants to establish a noble family, offspring are the key. He must continue his bloodline, yet he doesn't even look at me? Could it be that he still wants to marry the little Inspector of Lingjian Mountain?"

Among all the women in the world, the most noble is that little Inspector of Lingjian Mountain.

Princess Changle using him as an example was a veiled mockery of his overestimation of himself.
