Chapter 942

【Jiu Zhou Bai Hua Bang, 27th place (tie) — Minmin Temur, cultivation: Earthly Immortal Realm mid-stage】

【Identity: Great Yuan's Shao Min Princess, maid Baoqin of the Qinglong Shanzhuang's Tingtao Pavilion】

【Minmin Temur's Han name is Zhao Min】

【She is the beloved daughter of Prince Ruyang of the Great Yuan, personally enfeoffed as Shao Min Princess by Temujin】

【Only because she is clever and quick-witted, deeply pleasing Temujin】

【Later, Zhang Cuishan of the Great Ming returned from overseas, and all factions across the land sought to learn Xie Xun's whereabouts】

【Zhao Min knew this was a perfect opportunity to infiltrate the Great Ming, so she petitioned Temujin】

【Temujin dispatched Pang Ban as leader, along with a host of experts, placing them under her command】

【Zhao Min immediately led her group of experts to Mount Wudang】

【Yet she never expected that, though all factions seemed to be pressuring Wu Dangpai to reveal Xie Xun's location, the situation was as precarious as a pile of eggs】

【Unexpectedly, the Qinglong Society emerged from nowhere, and its Fifth Dragon Head, Li Taibai, personally appeared to welcome Zhang Sanfeng back to his position】

【After some thought, Zhang Sanfeng gladly accepted Li Taibai's terms】

【Thereafter, Li Taibai gave the order, and Qinglong Society assassins fanned out, slaughtering every invading faction to the last】

【This naturally included Zhao Min's group】

【Even Pang Ban, a prodigy of the Mo Shi Gong, was no match for a single move or technique of the Qinglong Society】

【After Pang Ban and his group of experts were all slain】

【Zhao Min was filled with terror, convinced she too would die there】

【Yet Li Taibai saw her and was struck dumb by her beauty】

【Li Taibai recalled Li Canghai's words from May: "The First Dragon Head, Ximen Wudi, best loves beautiful women."】

【He believed Zhao Min's appearance would surely please the First Dragon Head】

【Thus he sent men to abduct Zhao Min and deliver her to Qinglong Dian】

【Upon entering Qinglong Dian, Zhao Min took the alias Baoqin and was assigned by Jiang Yuyan to the Tingtao Pavilion】

【Her sole duty: to study qin music】

【At first, Zhao Min was resentful, fearing she would be raped】

【Yet after meeting Ximen Wudi once, she never wished to leave Qinglong Dian again】

【Instead, she willingly devoted herself to mastering the qin, seeking to please Ximen Wudi】

【Eventually, she even became a disciple of Autumn Moon Guardian Huang Xuemei, learning qin art】

【Unexpectedly, while focusing on qin art, her cultivation also surged rapidly】

【To this day, she has learned three of the Eight Sounds of Zhao Tianlong】

【Due to her immersion in qin art and the resulting cultivation growth, her beauty has been enhanced far beyond what it was before】

【Now her appearance and aura are among the rarest in the world】

【Heaven's Judgment: Elegant, spirited Zhao Min — one glance at Ximen, and her life is doomed】

【Heaven's Reward: Jiao Wei Qin (Immortal)】

……

【Jiu Zhou Bai Hua Bang, 27th place (tie) — Han Ji, cultivation: Top Tier】

【Identity: Prince Ruyang's concubine】

【Han Ji hails from the Eastern Chuyun Kingdom】

【She was specially presented by the former ruler of Chuyun to curry favor with Prince Ruyang, who hold significant power】

【Originally an ordinary beauty, one night she suddenly became a woman of unique aura】

【Her allure is seductive yet not vulgar, gorgeous yet not coarse】

【After acquiring her, Prince Ruyang was greatly pleased】

【From then on, he never visited any other concubine's chamber, exclusively favoring Han Ji】

【Due to heavy pressure on the northern border of the Great Yuan, Han Ji saw Prince Ruyang overworked】

【One day, in a moment of enlightenment, she composed a melody】

【After its creation, when played by her, it had the power to boost morale】

【From then on, the northern border troops of the Great Yuan grew strong】

【Whenever battle turned dire, Han Ji would play this melody】

【It would inevitably restore the army's fighting spirit and stamina, turning defeat into victory】

【Precisely because of this, Prince Ruyang became utterly entranced, lost in Han Ji's charm】

【Heaven's Judgment: Chuyun's Enchantress — unmatched in melody and dance】

【Heaven's Reward: Tian Wu Qu】

【Tian Wu Qu: This melody not only affects ordinary soldiers, but also cultivators】

……

【Jiu Zhou Bai Hua Bang, 27th place (tie) — Duanmu Rong, cultivation: Top Tier】

【Identity: The sole living heir of the Great Qin Medical School】

【Duanmu Rong is the sole living heir of the Great Qin Medical School】

【Since childhood, she entered the Medical School to study medicine】

【Because of her kind heart and humble origins, she deeply understood the importance of medicine to the common people】

【Thus, when practicing medicine, she spared no effort】

【Once, to save a patient, she stayed awake for three days and three nights without sleep】

【Having exhausted countless effort, she finally rescued this person】

【Her exterior is like ice, her interior like fire】

【She had once been warned by her Master never to fall in love with a swordsman in this lifetime】

【After completing her studies and descending the mountain, she opened a medical manor by Jinghu Lake】

【No matter what the strange or difficult ailment, as long as the patient was not a person of the Great Qin court, anyone could come to her for treatment】

【If the patient was of poor background and could not afford the medicine fee】

【She would not take a single cent, only asking to cure the person】

【Afterwards, one day, two young swordsmen arrived near the medical manor covered in blood】

【Although Miss Duanmu did not pity martial artists, seeing the two unconscious, she still treated them both】

【Afterwards she even sent the two off, delivering them away without a sound】

【Thanks to Miss Duanmu's aid, the two not only had their wounds fully healed, but also broke through their shackles】

【Their cultivation advanced another level】

【It was just that the two, due to their own respective beliefs and opportunities, separately joined the Liusha Organization and the Great Qin court】

【The one who joined Great Qin was precisely Great Qin's chief court swordsman Hearing Gai Nie】

【The one who founded Liusha was precisely the master of Liusha, Wei Zhuang】

【Heavenly Dao Evaluation: Fresh and elegant, aloof as ice and frost】

【Heavenly Dao Reward: Innate Mysterious Yin Physique】

【Innate Mysterious Yin Physique: Intercourse with one who possesses the Profound Heaven Mysterious Yin Physique yields tremendous benefit】.

This installment's Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers Ranking introduction ends here, abruptly cutting off.

Then, amid a heart-piercing fragrance, two figures gradually appeared in the sky.

One figure resembled an orchid in an empty valley, clad entirely in a snow-white long gown, her figure stirring endless imagination.

Were it not for the light veil covering her face, Liu Ruofei feared even more people would go mad for her.

The other figure, however, was leaning over a qin, ceaselessly studying and refining her qin skills.

As her slender jade fingers continuously plucked the qin strings.

Her expression also rose and fell, shifting with the qin music.

At times sorrowful, at times joyful, at times soaring, at times low.

Every shift of expression tugged at the hearts of countless people.

Behind these two figures, two more graceful silhouettes slowly appeared.
