Nine Regions Heavenly Venerate

Chapter 746 The Day of the Competition
Time passes by inadvertently, like a finger of quicksand.

In a twinkling of an eye, there were only two days left before the Martial Arts Recruitment Conference. During this time, Great Xia was very prosperous, and young heroes could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.

Although there are many young heroes appearing at the hero banquet, most of them know that they are not destined to be the champion, unable to become the concubine of the summer, and to embrace the beauty, but such a grand event, every hero does not want to miss it, and it is possible to meet the young heroes of today's world. It was a worthwhile trip.

The day before the meeting, Jing Pengfei finally returned to Daxia. He turned into a ray of light and rushed directly into the Daxia Palace.

"Who?"

Zeng Wenyu, who is in charge of the order of Great Xia, appeared immediately.

"I am, I have something important to report." Jing Pengfei said anxiously, covered in blood.

"Elder Jing, what happened?" Zeng Wenyu's expression changed, and he stepped forward to ask with concern.

An imperceptible haze flashed in the corner of Jing Pengfei's eyes, but he concealed it very well, and said weakly: "There is no need to say anything, take me to see the Palace Master."

"it is good!"

Zeng Wenyu supported Jing Pengfei and headed towards the Daxia Palace. At the same time, two figures flew from different directions in the imperial city. Seeing Zeng Wenyu supporting Jing Pengfei into the South Palace, their expressions were solemn.

Looking at each other, they both followed.

Nangong Hongzhen and Ding Qiuhua were in the main hall, listening to the report on the progress of the martial arts competition and recruiting relatives, when they suddenly saw Zeng Wenyu rushing in with Jing Pengfei, their eyes froze.

"Palace Master." Jing Pengfei came to the main hall and knelt down directly, sobbing in a sobbing tone, with tears falling from the corners of his eyes.

Nangong Hongzhen waved his hand to signal the person reporting below to go down, and then asked, "What happened?"

Jing Pengfei raised his head and cried, "Palace Master, we encountered Jin Linggu's ambush. Second brother, second brother is dead."

"What!?" The two warriors who rushed in were surprised and froze in place.

These two were the third and fifth elders who rushed back first. The third elder was named Gai Yuanfeng, who was at the eighth level of Emperor Zun, and the fifth elder was named Nie Xin, who was at the peak of the seventh level of Emperor Zun.

Daxia originally had seven elders, but the fourth elder never mentioned it, not for other reasons, because the fourth elder had already died in battle. Perhaps only Nangong Hongzhen and Ding Qiuhua knew about this matter, and the other elders probably didn't know about it.

"Golden Spirit Valley, he dared to touch our Great Xia?" Nie Xin said coldly, with murderous intent bursting out, and there was a tendency to directly dispatch troops to kill Golden Spirit Valley.

Nangong Hongzhen's eyes sank, he stared at Jing Pengfei, and said, "Where was he buried?"

"At the edge of Daxia's territory, in the territory of Jinling Valley, Jin Sanzi personally took action. Second brother and I were defeated. Palace Master, you must avenge second brother." Jing Pengfei prostrated himself on the ground, snot and tears.

Nangong Hongzhen waved his hand and said: "I see, you should go down to recuperate first."

"Palace Master, my injury is not important, but second brother's revenge must be avenged. I would like to plead for orders to attack Jinling Valley, kill Jin Sanzi, and avenge my second brother." The feeling of not being human.

Nangong Hongzhen said seriously: "I will deal with this matter, you go down to recuperate first, Qiuhua, you take Pengfei down to heal."

"Okay." Ding Qiuhua turned his eyes, got up and walked towards Jing Pengfei.

Jing Pengfei felt helpless, he wanted to divert the disaster to the east, and let Daxia and Jinlinggu fight, but he didn't expect Nangong Hongzhen to be so calm, and he didn't dare to continue asking for orders, and went down with Ding Qiuhua. At the same time, he looked at Ding Qiuhua's face An imperceptible cold light flashed across his eyes.

"Palace Master, why don't you attack Jinling Valley to avenge your second brother?" Gai Yuanfeng asked after Ding Qiuhua took Jing Pengfei away.

Nangong Hongzhen said in a condensed voice: "There are many doubts about this matter. First, Boyu's life monument has not been extinguished, so he is obviously not dead. Second, Jin Linggu and Daxia are still on good terms, so it is impossible to do it for no reason. , and if Jin Sanzi makes a move, it might not be as simple as leaving Boyu alone."

Zeng Wenyu's face changed wildly, and he was taken aback in his heart, and said in surprise: "The palace master means..."

Nangong Hongzhen waved his hand and said, "Yuanfeng, you go to inquire about Bo Yu's news, Nie Xin, pay close attention to the Great Xia forces, Wen Yu, tomorrow will be a martial arts competition to recruit relatives, and you will be in charge of the Great Xia order and preside over the meeting."

"Yes!"

The three elders were very strong in execution, and they all took orders and left.

After everyone who was waiting left, Nangong Hongzhen stood up slowly, with his hands on his shoulders, his deep eyes were full of brilliance, "Big Xia, it's not your turn to get involved."

……

In an attic of Nangong, there are luxuriant grasses and shining exotic flowers. A stream meanders and flows among the flowers and plants. On the flowing water, a small bridge stands horizontally and connects to a gazebo.

There is a stone table in the gazebo, Nangong Shiyin burns incense and plays the piano, but the sound of the piano is faint and full of sorrow.

After the song was finished, Nangong sighed softly, accompanied by the faint sound of the piano, drifting into the distance.

"For whom do you live, for whom do you die, for whom do you send messages of lovesickness. Crazy for love, mad for love, how long will your soul die for love!"

"Don't take it lightly, why do you need to force your face, I just want to be a farmer in the mountains and rivers."

……

After the faint sound of the qin fell, Nangong expressed his poetic feelings. Those words full of vicissitudes and helplessness made people feel heartbroken, at least, to those who really loved him, it was enough to break their hearts.

At this moment, Nangong Hongzhen was standing not far away, listening to these heartbreaking poems, his expression was a little painful at that moment.

This catastrophe will come sooner or later, he must do this.

Reining in his mind, Nangong Hongzhen walked onto the small bridge, forced a smile and said, "Shiyin, tomorrow is the day of the martial arts contest, are you ready?"

The maidservants around saluted one after another, but Nangong Hongzhen waved them away.

Nangong Shiyin didn't get up, and her haggard face didn't show any waves, "I'm already a thing, why do I need to prepare."

Nangong Hongzhen sighed lightly, and said quietly, "Take a good look at your mood."

Nangong Shiyin stood up suddenly, looked at Nangong Hongzhen's leaving back, and asked, "Why, why don't you want to accept Qianxun."

Nangong Hongzhen paused slightly, and said, "All I did was for your own good."

"fraud!"

Nangong Shiyi suddenly roared angrily, "You kept saying that it was for my own good, but you forcibly broke up my happiness, and used my happiness as a bargaining chip to marry other forces to consolidate your position in Great Xia. Everything you have done, It's just for the big summer in your hands."

Nangong Hongzhen murmured softly, walked out, and signaled the maidservant to take care of Nangong Shiyin.

In Chu Palace, Nangong Chu and Jing Haoran were fighting, but neither of them broke out with all their strength, they were just empty.

However, the trick Jing Haoran used was the trick of Nangong Min and others, it seemed to be for Nangong Chu to find out the flaws in it.

The two fought for a long time before they stopped. Nangong Chu had a deep smile on his face.

"Brother Chu, how sure are you of winning the group arena?" Jing Haoran asked.

Nangong Chu calmed down, with full confidence on his face, patted Jing Haoran on the shoulder, and said, "Wait and see me defeat the world's heroes."

Jing Haoran nodded and said: "With this kind of self-confidence, I believe that there are few enemies. However, if the mysterious Mo Chen stepped into the ring, would you be sure to win?"

The battle between Mo Chen and Qian Jinglong definitely attracted the attention of young heroes from all walks of life. Many people must have studied that battle in secret. If it was Mo Chen's limit, many people would still be sure to fight. During Qianjinglong's time, Mo Chen always had a calm expression, as if he still had a lot of hole cards that he hadn't played, making it hard to see through.

This makes people more uncertain.

"Strength doesn't mean everything. Whoever it is, will eventually have weaknesses." Nangong Chu said without losing confidence.

……

On the second day, the entire Great Xia Imperial City was almost deserted by thousands of people, and everyone crowded to the largest square outside the palace, wanting to see the demeanor of the world's heroes and take a look at this grand event.

The Great Xia Dynasty married a daughter, and the entire imperial city was extremely lively. Red flowers symbolizing happiness were hung everywhere in the city, and countless roses were sprinkled on both sides of the street. The petals danced with the wind, and the fragrance of the flowers spread throughout whole city.

The shops in all the streets are full of safflower hanging halls, and the streets are full of people, like an ant colony.

Zeng Wenyu had already mobilized all the guards, not only to maintain the order of the square outside the palace, but also to control the entire imperial city, so despite the large number of people, it was orderly and not chaotic.

The crowd flocked to the square in an orderly manner. After all, they brushed shoulders one after another. They all looked forward to the upcoming contest to recruit relatives.

In the center of the square, Daxia built a sturdy arena with a radius of more than ten meters. It was all made of precious materials, which ensured the strength of the arena. Even the Emperor Zun warriors would find it difficult to destroy it.

And at the back of the arena, there are several platforms with some pavilions built on them. On one of the pavilions, Nanan Rongruo was dressed in red and sat there quietly, but it didn't match the festive red outfit. , her face is very cold, like ice that will not melt for thousands of years.

But this does not affect her beauty in the slightest. She is cold, but also has a kind of extreme beauty, which makes people never get tired of it.

As for the other pavilions, apart from those from the Great Xia Dynasty, only noble people could be seated. At the same time, it can be regarded as maintaining the order of this martial arts competition.

After all, there were so many noble people sitting there, some young people naturally didn't dare to mess around.

Inside the South Palace.

Nangong Hongzhen was with Ding Qiuhua, and the latter's hands were still stained with blood.

"Do you know the person behind him?" Nangong Hongzhen asked.

Ding Qiuhua said: "Ghost sect, ghosts are sad!"

Ding Qiuhua has followed Nangong Hongzhen for more than a hundred years, and there is a tacit understanding. On that day, Nangong Hongzhen asked Ding Qiuhua to take Jing Pengfei down to heal his wounds, just to test Jing Pengfei.Ding Qiuyu deliberately exposed himself to Jing Pengfei without any precautions.

Sure enough, Jing Pengfei wanted to strike suddenly, but was killed by Ding Qiuhua instead.

"Palace Master, you summoned us back, did you already know that Ghost Sect was doing something?" Ding Qiuhua asked.

Nangong Hongzhen said: "It would be fine if it was just the ghost sect. Behind this, there may be a bigger crisis."

Ding Qiuhua frowned deeply, and said: "Yuanfeng has not returned, there is no news at all, I am afraid that I will be ambushed by the ghost sect, and there is no news from Nie Xin, I am afraid..."

Nangong Hongzhen grinned faintly, patted Ding Qiuhua on the shoulder, and said, "Remember what I said, no matter what, we must ensure Chu'er's safety."

"What conspiracy does Ghost Sect have, why did Emperor Domain come here?"

At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded, and Mo Chen's figure came over, and he didn't know when he appeared here.

Nangong Hongzhen was taken aback for a moment, then smiled relievedly, and said, "Are you really not going to participate in today's martial arts contest to recruit relatives?"

Mo Chen shook his head and said: "I'm not interested, I'm only interested in the situation in Great Xia. Kaifeng, the master of the Emperor's Domain Open Gate, is here, and the person behind him is Lou Yingshan, and Kaifeng, Taixue Gate, and Guizong walked together. , don’t tell me, you don’t know any of this.”

Although Mo Chen didn't know what happened to Qing Boyu, Xi Qianyan did investigate.

In addition, the person behind Nanan Rongruo is Gui Yishan, which reminded Mo Chen a lot. Guizong might have been with Diyu a long time ago, and he doesn't know what conspiracy he has.
