It was a court meeting that all officials could participate in, but he was the only one who was rejected by the saint on the grounds of "avoidance".

After a day of worrying, Fang Tianyu learned that Yang Dang had fallen out of favor after the court meeting. Before he could be happy, news came that Fang Xiwen and Yang Tianxiu had dueled in front of the emperor.

Since being taken away by the Six Gates that day, Fang Xiwen has not spoken a word to him again. Why?

It is understandable that he wanted to distance himself from the Fang family and not drag them down after being accused of many crimes.

But now that the Saint has this attitude towards Yang Dang, why is he still hiding from his family and insisting on not meeting them?

After thinking it over, Fang Tianyu had no idea and didn't want to look for his friend, so he could only send someone to pass the message to see if he could invite the second daughter who had always been unwilling to return to her ancestral home to come over.

Fang Xiwen was away during this period, and she was the one handling all the affairs in the mansion, so she should know more.

Soon, a woman in a black robe and hood with half her face covered stood outside the hall, with her hands in her sleeves, looking at him from a distance.

"Mu You, come in?" Fang Tianyu tried to call out, but the other party did not respond.

The meaning is probably to say what you want to say here.

"Dad feels that Xiwen has been acting a little strange recently, and I want to ask you if you know anything. It's okay if you don't want to tell me, but I feel sorry for you."

His words were mixed with worry for his son and guilt for his daughter, which sounded strange at first.

"Xiwen said, you will know when the time comes. He is the one who let you down."

"...What?"

Normally, Li Muyou would not want to say it a second time, but seeing Fang Tianyu leaning forward suddenly, with a look of doubt and sadness, she could not help but pause and continued: "He said that he lied to you."

"What did you lie to me about?"

"You'll know then."

"How would I know if you don't tell me?"

After a few more sentences, even this rough man, Lao Fang, was scratching his head.

Fortunately, he suddenly remembered that Luo Ting was probably still in the capital, and as his son's father-in-law, he might know something, so he immediately grabbed a few jars of good wine from the cellar and rushed out.

~~

Outside the city gate, the construction of the arena has been completed.

Perhaps in order to increase the excitement of the life-and-death fight, after the formation masters of Sitianjian and Shenjimen completed the reinforcement, the royal family arranged the venue into a miniature secret realm, but without hindering the connection with the outside world. The method was extremely clever.

Because the fight outside was so earth-shattering, although most people in the capital wanted to watch the fight, not everyone dared to be a bloodthirsty spectator;

If you watch the battle on the spot, you may be killed by the aftermath even if the city has been reinforced. Taking this into consideration, the royal family also set up a skylight for watching the battle in the city.

I saw many bright lights and shadows flashing on the towering city walls, and after being debugged, they reflected the scenes in the miniature secret realm in detail.

The skylight is several meters square, and no matter which direction you look at it from, it is always straight ahead, so there is no angle problem.

I saw a dense jungle in the secret realm, with a gurgling stream, a few swallows flying in the woods, and the sunlight was cut into pieces by the leaves and shattered on the ground.

On the surface it is a natural interest, but in fact it is a manifestation of the rich power of heaven and earth, which is equivalent to raising the intensity of the battle to a higher level.

As the arena was fully prepared, the entire city of God became excited:

People called their friends to go out to the streets, and every house was empty. Cruise ships docked, vendors closed their stalls, and the market closed. Everyone rushed to the restaurants that could be seen from high places.

Even the brothels suspended their business. All the courtesans and their patrons went up to the top floor. Even though they were in dishevel, they were all distracted and stared at the huge sky curtain, talking among themselves.

It was a rare grand banquet that was open to all ages, regardless of their wealth, and due to the complicated internal factors, it was unknown how many people were affected.

Even the Fang Mansion which was close to the city and the Xing Palace which was far away in Longchuan all used their own means to go through the back door of the formation and cast a tiny sky curtain in their own homes.

Looking at the screen outlined by stars, Jiang Xingchu had a blank expression on her face, but people who knew her knew that she was nervous and her fists were clenched.

The little demon girl at the side seemed to have some objections, and muttered: "Young Master, it's not a good idea to use the divine weapons for such a small matter. What does it have to do with us if the gods are fighting?"

"Hush! Are you blind? Look carefully. Who is that person in cloth clothes?"

“Wow, my son-in-law is so handsome——” “Shut up!”

——Similar or different discussions can be found everywhere. Even though the groups of people are different, they all have one thing in common.

Even if the storyteller talked his mouth off, not many people would care about the reason for launching this challenge, but would be more concerned about the process and even the result.

Listening to the noisy voices in the city, Fang Xiwen walked not far from the "ring" and figured out some things, feeling a little helpless.

His original intention was not only to seek justice for Liu Yue, he also wanted to change something, but the voices of the crowd drowned out what he wanted to say, so the only people left onlookers were left all over the mountains and plains.

"Well, just think of it as me venting my anger."

With a smile, Fang Xiwen confirmed his thoughts, then stepped onto the stairs leading to the secret realm step by step and clenched his fists a few times.

At this moment, he also remembered that Miss Wang had taught him a lesson a long time ago, saying that he had no will for martial arts.

In fact, Fang Xiwen still doesn't quite understand whether he has it or not. Although he has thoughts about too many people in his heart, such as Luo Qingni, Jiang Xingchu and other beauties, and wants to protect them;

For example, the Emperor and the Sword Immortal, the remnants of the past, want to change the tragedy;

For example, the many soldiers of the Wang family who died defending the pass wanted to seek justice for them;

For example, Xiao Xi, Liu Yue, Tian Qing and others who were wronged, he wanted to redress their wrongs... Perhaps because his mind was too complicated, he never had the feeling of having his energy and spirit concentrated into one.

But walking on the stairs, Fang Xiwen felt strangely that there was only one extremely pure thought left in his heart at this moment, as if all the strength in his body could be released to achieve this goal -

In front of countless people, he would break Yang Tianxiu's spine and force the latter to kneel down and admit his mistake.

Chapter 399: The Exterior Scene of the Proof

From the outside, this arena is made up of a dozen steps of stairs on both sides and a ten-foot square platform in the middle. There are several precious weapons floating around it, serving as the core of the formation, and each of them emits powerful fluctuations.

Tread, step, step.

Walking up the stairs to the arena, Fang Xiwen felt ripples all around him. The scene in front of him distorted, revealing a different secret jungle realm.

'This method may seem simple, but it is actually the use of the Way of Heaven and Earth. Those who can achieve this effect are either great Dharma masters or awakened divine weapons, and there must be a specific method...'

According to his guess, the miniature secret realm in front of him was one of the gains obtained by the Gao family, who had obtained the Emperor's Sword, from exploring various ancient secret realms over the years.

After taking a step into the secret realm, Fang Xiwen stood still. Soon the scene not far away began to distort, the water waves blurred, and a figure in gorgeous clothes appeared.

In this way, both participants in the fight before the emperor are ready.

At the same time, on the city wall of the capital, a dragon chariot was lowered, and then a throne was erected in the most conspicuous place.

Emperor Yuan of Jin, wearing a flat crown, sat on it, holding a jade token in his hand;

The token was made entirely of jade, with a faint hint of scarlet in it. After playing with it for a while, the saint opened his palm and said, "Go, give it to Lord Fang."

"Yes."

The old eunuch standing by took it respectfully, held it in both hands, and gave it to Fang Tianyu who was standing not far away.

The latter brushed his python robe, knelt on the ground, and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty. I still don't know what this thing is?"

"Fang Sanlang's blood card."

The saint only nodded lightly, and then Shen Lian, the chief detective of the Six Gates, stepped forward and explained with a smile:

"Your Majesty admires him and doesn't want such a good young man to die in a fight out of loyalty, so he asked the people of Shenjimen to refine this item."

"After the formation of the arena is activated, it cannot be opened from the outside unless a Dharma body attacks it several times with full force. In addition, the formation will only be automatically opened when only one person is left inside."

"With this blood card, as long as the blood connected person is willing to sacrifice half of his blood essence, we can bypass the formation and drag the person out alive."

Upon hearing this, Fang Tianyu was overjoyed. Even though he tried to hold it back, a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Although losing half of his blood and essence would be a serious blow to a master like him, he could rest assured that Fang Xiwen would not die no matter what since he had this insurance.

"My dear Lord Fang, if you don't fight, you will be defeated. After the defeat, you will be punished. Don't be too happy too soon." Emperor Yuan of Jin pointed at him with his finger and said, "Besides, I have always been fair."

"...yes."

After being poured with a bucket of cold water, Fang Tianyu calmed down and looked around for a while, but did not find anything like a blood card in Yang Mingyue's hand.

Since there is none, then what exactly does the saint mean by fairness?

~~

Under the sky, the two men confronted each other from a distance, their energies intertwined.

Even though it was only a few steps, Fang Xiwen noticed that the other person's walking posture was a little strange, and couldn't help but ask: "Little Taifu, are you too eager for success? Did you damage your body by practicing martial arts?"

"No trouble."

Standing there, Yang Tianxiu's face showed that arrogant and confident look again. He licked his lips lightly and said, "Fang Xiwen, I should say thank you to you."

"You're welcome."

"Don't you ask why?"

"Because you are going to die anyway. If I didn't make this stupid move and just ran away, you would never be able to kill me." Fang Xiwen said calmly with a blank expression.

Hearing this, Yang Tianxiu first nodded, then shook his head.

His expression was calm, and he seemed not to be in a hurry to attack. Instead, he was more willing to talk to this old enemy. He said:

"That's both right and wrong. Fang Xiwen, I'm curious about a characteristic of yours. Would you like to tell me about it before you die?"

"It seems that you always think less of yourself and more of others. You even want to protect those lowly detectives under your command. Why is that?"

The tone of his voice was just like that of an old friend. Fang Xiwen felt disgusted and said nothing. Yang Tianxiu continued to talk on his own:

"This characteristic makes you appear to be a bit nauseatingly gentle, but it also becomes a fatal flaw: you always misjudge your own value."

"You know what? The Saint actually values ​​you so much that he is willing to choose the Wang family to protect you. But the terrible thing is that you made such a stupid move out of a momentary impulsiveness."

As he spoke, Yang Tianxiu couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth until they reached his ears, revealing a feeling of pain and pleasure at the same time. He looked to both sides and said with a grim smile:

"That is to say, as long as you die in my hands, all the previous plots will be bullshit, and it will still be our Yang family that will rule the world for the Saint in the future!"

"That's why we did what you wanted and made this duel a big deal, and finally we had this impenetrable barrier! Unless the Dharmakaya comes in person, no one can save your barrier!!"

In the secret realm, Yang Tianxiu's expression became more and more ferocious, and the people watching the sky curtain started screaming.

Most of them were women, and they screamed shrilly as if they had seen something terrifying.

sizzle.

It sounded like flesh and blood was peeling off, reminding Fang Xiwen of the sound made when he was grilling meat before. He couldn't help but frowned and took a half step back.

"Fang Xiwen, I know that you have returned to your original nature and can prove your ability at any time. You are not as vulnerable as the outside world says."
