Chapter 257

During this time, there was naturally no shortage of various discussions regarding today's casual talk.

First, the top three of the Sword God Ranking were announced,

followed by the exposure of Yan Nantian, who was trapped in the Valley of Villains, and the Great Song's invincible Sword God, Senior Dugu Qiubai.

Finally, there was the blockbuster Great Song Rouge Ranking, which led to the introduction of the Xiaoyao Sect, a hidden sect of the Great Song and a cultivation sect.

The commentary along the way was truly brilliant, leaving everyone without even a moment of leisure to take a sip of water.

As this commentary concluded, everyone had a premonition that a heaven-shaking shock would surely erupt across the Nine Provinces.

First was Lang Fanyun, ranked second on the Sword God Ranking; although he had sealed his sword for twenty years, he was, after all, a veteran of the Nujiao Gang.

It could be foreseen that the influence of the Nujiao Gang in the Dongting area would surely increase greatly from now on.

Furthermore, the matter of Yan Nantian would also stir up a huge storm.

Back then, Yan Nantian was the number one hero under heaven, righteous and magnanimous, having bestowed grace upon countless people; who in the Great Ming Jianghu did not admire him?

Now that he had fallen into the Valley of Villains to preserve the corpse of his sworn brother Jiang Feng, many people would surely find this intolerable.

It was just unknown whether any righteous warriors would truly dare to storm the perilous Valley of Villains for Yan Nantian's sake.

For the Jianghu heroes of the Great Song,

the focus of discussion was naturally the Sword Demon Senior Dugu Qiubai and the Great Song Rouge Ranking.

There was nothing to say about Senior Dugu Qiubai; one simply had to praise him.

He created the "Nine Swords of Senior Dugu" himself and, by his thirties, was already invincible, rampaging through the Great Song Jianghu.

Afterward, he traveled through the six kingdoms, defeating all the famous experts of every major sect, seeking a single defeat his entire life but never finding it.

He sealed his sword and lived in seclusion at the Sword Mound for sixty years, his Sword Dao reaching the realm where "having no sword is superior to having a sword."

Such an existence was already something to be looked up to with awe.

It was only a pity that Su Chen did not announce the location of the Sword Mound; otherwise, a large number of swordsmen would surely have gone to pay their respects.

The Great Song Rouge Ranking was the focal point of everyone's discussion.

There was an unavoidable figure here, and that was Duan Zhengchun.

While everyone gnashed their teeth at this "Grandmaster of Sea Kings," they could not help but feel a bit of admiration.

The Great Song Rouge Ranking had a total of eleven seats, and this man alone accounted for five.

Currently, only three daughters—A'Zhu, A'Zi, and Wang Yuyan—had been exposed.

As for who the other two women were, everyone could only use their imaginations and make bold guesses.

For a time, all sorts of discussions echoed incessantly throughout the lobby.

……

At the same time.

Shi Feixuan declined Hou Xibai's invitation to dinner and walked up to the fourth floor by herself.

"Are you here to stay for the night?"

"There are four grades of rooms here: Heaven, Earth, Profound, and Yellow. Which one do you want..."

Guo Furong said while looking up.

When she saw Shi Feixuan's face clearly, she was completely stunned.

To describe it in modern terms, it was simply too ethereal.

Even Guo Furong, who was also a woman, could not help but lose her focus for a moment after seeing Shi Feixuan.

It was simply because Shi Feixuan's beauty had transcended the limits of mortals, looking more like the countenance of a celestial being.

At first glance, it was like being shrouded in mist and clouds, mysterious and dreamlike.

Looking closer, one felt as if they had entered a fairyland, uncontrollably drawn to her.

"Please open a Heaven-grade room for me."

Shi Feixuan said softly in that sweet voice that contained not a trace of impurity.

Coming from the Cihang Jingzhai, she naturally was not short of money.

"Oh, oh."

It took Guo Furong a long time to come back to her senses, and just as she was about to get the key for Shi Feixuan, she suddenly thought of something.

"If the guest is not short of money, there is a better room I can recommend here."

Guo Furong said this and took out the brochure for the Shanhai Villa.

"This is?"

Shi Feixuan was somewhat puzzled.

"This is the Shanhai Villa; you can understand it as a Jiangnan garden in the sky."

"That scenery absolutely crushes any Heaven-grade room."

"Mr. Su lives here, and there are also some rooms available for rent to outsiders."

"It's just that the rent is a bit expensive, and you also need to be responsible for some miscellaneous chores."

Guo Furong introduced it enthusiastically.

She had previously received instructions from Yao Yue that the rooms in the Shanhai Villa could only be rented to the most extraordinary women under heaven.

Guo Furong naturally dared not disobey the words of such a big shot.

Therefore, she never told ordinary tenants about the existence of the Shanhai Villa.

But this beauty who looked like a celestial being before her clearly had the qualifications to stay in the Shanhai Villa.

"Living with Mr. Su?"

Shi Feixuan's beautiful eyes brightened, and she immediately said, "Then I will stay in the Shanhai Villa."

"Alright! May I ask the guest's surname?"

"My surname is Shi..."

After the check-in procedures were completed, Shi Feixuan walked toward the Shanhai Villa with a nervous heart.

"It really is a garden in the sky?"

Looking at the antique mansion in front of her, Shi Feixuan felt it was very dreamlike.

The construction craftsmanship of this inn truly exceeded the scope of her imagination.

"I heard that the construction blueprints for this inn also came from Mr. Su's hands; he truly is a figure like a god."

Shi Feixuan sighed with emotion and pushed the door open to enter the courtyard.

"You really did come."

In the courtyard, Wanwan was sitting on a swing, swaying back and forth.

Her crystal-clear, jade-like snowy feet danced in the air without the slightest concealment, dazzling to the eyes.

She was not at all surprised by Shi Feixuan's arrival.

Shi Feixuan was also not surprised by Wanwan's presence here; she gave a slight bow and said, "Shi Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai greets Miss Wanwan."

"Stop putting on that hypocritical act."

"As long as I am here, I will never let you get close to Mr. Su."

Wanwan leaped up and landed in front of Shi Feixuan.

Because she was hovering three inches above the ground, she looked a bit taller than Shi Feixuan.

This made her feel secretly happy.

Shi Feixuan smiled slightly and said, "It seems Mr. Su is indeed an extraordinary person, to make Miss Wanwan so nervous."

Wanwan did not expect her threat to have the opposite effect, and she could not help but feel a wave of frustration.

This nun was not the same type as Yilin at all; she was very difficult to deal with.

And she had also confirmed one thing.

That was that Shi Feixuan's stay in the Shanhai Villa this time was to compete with her for Su Chen!

"If Miss Wanwan has nothing else, then Feixuan will return to her room first."

Shi Feixuan said calmly, then walked past Wanwan toward the inside.

"What a Shi nun; do you really think I can't deal with you?"

Wanwan gave a light huff and headed straight for the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Huang Rong was busy preparing dinner, with Yu Youwei helping her on the side.

Seeing Wanwan come over, both of them were somewhat surprised.

Wanwan never came to this kind of place on ordinary days.

"Rong'er, what do you think of our relationship?"
