"We hope that you, Old Ancestor, will preside over this sword-fighting competition."

Bai Qiuyuan asked doubtfully.

"Hasn't the Sword Conference always been presided over by the Sword Pavilion Master?"

Xu Hongxi explained.

"Ancestor, you don't know."

"Among the opportunities that led to a significant rise in Jiange's fame, only three were extremely exaggerated."

"The first time was when the Sword Pavilion was established and they recruited sword cultivators from all over the world."

"The second time was when Jiange was in danger of destruction, and the Supreme Ancestor took action."

"And the third time..."

"It's because you, Old Ancestor...are so handsome."

When Xu Hongxi said this, he closed his eyes.

This doesn't mean that Xu Hongxi looks down on Bai Qiuyuan.

But Xu Hongxi discovered that if he continued to stare at Bai Qiuyuan.

You might start to doubt whether you like men...

Xu Hongxi closed his eyes and continued to explain.

"I estimate that nearly 90% of the cultivators at this Sword Competition came here just to see you, Sword Ancestor..."

"If Sword Ancestor doesn't show up..."

Xu Hongxi stopped talking after he finished speaking.

Bai Qiuyuan: "..."

Han Qianqiu: "..."

(Note: Bai Qiuyuan’s fan base covers a very wide range.

From the casual cultivators and children on the roadside to the elders and masters of the three major sects.

Even 90% of the cultivators in the entire upper realm are fans of Bai Qiuyuan!

There is no shortage of people who have reached the Nascent Soul stage or even surpassed it.

If anyone of them makes a scene in Jiange because he can't see Bai Qiuyuan.

This caused public outrage, and Jiange, without dispatching its ancestors...

Maybe we can’t stop those fanatical fans from causing trouble…)

【223】Secret Realm at the Bottom of the Lake

——Devil Palace——

Bai Qiuyuan's incarnation is practicing on Bai Qiuyuan's behalf.

All the results of the incarnation's cultivation will eventually be transferred to the original body.

At this moment, what Bai Qiuyuan's incarnation was practicing was not spiritual power or martial arts.

But it is a skill shared by the original body: the Light of Merit.

The light of merit on the surface of the incarnation's body is peeled off and compressed.

The light of merit condensed into several faint golden halos behind the incarnation...

……

Not long after, the incarnation stopped practicing.

After the incarnation opened his eyes, he looked at Wen Ningyu beside him and smiled.

"The Sword Pavilion is holding a sword-fighting competition. Do you want to go and see it?"

Wen Ningyu smiled after hearing this.

"Is it the Sword Pavilion where Sister Han is?"

Bai Qiuyuan smiled and nodded.

Wen Ningyu said excitedly after hearing this.

"I wanna go!"

Bai Qiuyuan said with a smile.

"Well, then you can go with me."

Wen Ningyu smiled and nodded.

Bai Qiuyuan: "Shadow."

As soon as Bai Qiuyuan finished speaking, a masked woman in black suddenly emerged from the shadows behind Bai Qiuyuan!

The woman came to Bai Qiuyuan, half-knelt in front of him and bowed her head.

"My subordinate is here."

Bai Qiuyuan: "Gather the men and set off for Jiange."

"We are going to participate in the sword fighting competition."

"Yes, Lord Demon."

The woman named Shadow heard that she was going to Zhengdao Jiange.

Without even a moment's hesitation or asking why, he agreed.

Shadow asked.

"Master Demon, how many people should we go with?"

Bai Qiuyuan said with a smile.

"Demon cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage don't need to follow."

"Find a few more with high cultivation."

"Yes!"

Then the woman disappeared.

Wen Ningyu asked doubtfully.

"Little brother, are you planning to go there as a demon cultivator?"

Wen Ningyu has been in the upper realm for some time.

Now we have a general understanding of how bad the relationship between the evil path and the righteous path is.

So when he heard that Bai Qiuyuan was planning to go to Jiange as a demon cultivator, he couldn't help but feel a little worried.

Bai Qiuyuan smiled and touched Wen Ningyu's head.

"Don't worry, I will solve these problems myself."

"You just have to think about what you're going to wear in three days."

After seeing this, Wen Ningyu smiled and nodded without asking any further questions.

……

——Jiangge——

After learning about the itinerary arranged by Jiange for himself.

Bai Qiuyuan took Han Qianqiu and left the hall.

The specific itinerary arranged by Jiange for Bai Qiuyuan was probably to go to a spiritual spring somewhere in Jiange early in the morning to bathe and change clothes.

After changing into the clothes prepared in advance by Jiange, you can make the final appearance after Pavilion Master Xu and the elders appear.

After that, Bai Qiuyuan didn't have to do anything.

All you need to do is go through the motions, find a seat, and watch the sword-fighting competition.

……

——A spiritual lake somewhere near Jiange——

Bai Qiuyuan brought Han Qianqiu to a spiritual lake.

After using the earth control technique to level the soil at the edge of the Spirit Lake, Bai Qiuyuan took out two folding chairs from his space ring.

After the two sat down, Bai Qiuyuan took out a fishing rod and a fish basket from the space ring, preparing to fish to kill time while waiting for the sword-fighting conference to arrive.

Bai Qiuyuan: [The weather in the cultivation world has been nice these past few days.]

【The sun is shining, perfect for fishing. 】

Han Qianqiu used his spiritual sense to sense the fish in the spiritual lake and asked in confusion.

"Is it okay for you to fish here instead of practicing?"

Bai Qiuyuan said with a smile.

"Cultivation itself requires a balance between work and rest."

"Practicing all the time will only make the process of practicing boring."

"Also, I've been to so many places recently and seen so many sights."

"My mood started to become a little unstable."

"So I decided to calm myself down by fishing."

Han Qianqiu: "..."

I've never seen you "work hard," you've always been "relaxed."

Han Qianqiu smiled and complained in his heart, then after his spiritual sense sensed the situation in the Spirit Lake, he spoke.

"Do you want to go fishing somewhere else? This is a spiritual lake."

“But there aren’t many fish in it.”

"Besides, most of the fish in the Spirit Lake have a certain degree of intelligence and generally won't take the bait easily."

"The most important thing is... you didn't put out any bait."

After hearing this, Bai Qiuyuan didn't take it seriously. He just threw out the fishing rod and said with a smile.

"I once fished in the Mortal Realm."

"After that, I realized one thing."

Han Qianqiu: “?”

"what's up?"

Bai Qiuyuan smiled confidently.

"I'm fishing, I don't need bait."

Han Qianqiu: “?”

thump!

Just when Bai Qiuyuan finished explaining, Han Qianqiu was still confused.

There was movement on Bai Qiuyuan's fishing float!

Then Bai Qiuyuan raised the fishing rod in his hand and pulled it gently, and a big fish was directly caught out of the water by Bai Qiuyuan!

Han Qianqiu: “?!”

[Your fish is biting the hook too fast, isn't it!? ]

……

Just as Bai Qiuyuan was about to take the fish off and put it into the fish basket, he saw that the fish was stained with a spiritual power unique to treasures.
