Chapter 265 Provocation After bidding farewell to their master, Jin Renfeng and Huai Zhu stepped on their magic weapons and flew directly into the air. As soon as they left the villa, they flew straight north. Both of them were people with profound magical powers. They flew at an extremely fast speed and soon they were far away from Shenhuoshan Villa. "I wonder if we might run into a monster or something along the way!" Jin Renfeng spoke out of boredom. "Brother, you are joking. This is the human realm. There are no monsters here." Huaizhu chuckled. "Not necessarily. The last time Qin Lan and I went to look for you, we ran into one." Jin Renfeng shook his head and said, "That monster almost killed Junior Sister Lu's family."
"I've also heard Junior Sister Lu mention this. I guess it's a little demon who has achieved success in cultivation in the mountains!" Huaizhu pondered and said, “Although some monsters are born monsters through bloodline, there are also monsters that are cultivated from wild beasts.” "It is impossible for the Yiqi Dao League to clear all the beasts in the human area." "But don't worry, Senior Brother. In our human realm, ordinary monsters don't dare to provoke us." Jin Renfeng showed a look of regret and sighed. "It seems that I won't be able to encounter such good things as a witch." The two of them rushed through the clouds and over the mountains. In just three hours, the two arrived near Chixia City in the north. As we got closer to the north, the scenery below had changed. There are gray and black dead branches and tree trunks everywhere, which is completely different from the green color of the south. After flying for dozens of kilometers, a big city came into view. Looking at the prosperous and annoying city below, Jin Renfeng felt a little strange. "This Chixia City is quite lively, why is the surrounding area so desolate?" "There's not even a village within a hundred miles." "This place is close to the border of Beishan, near the demon tribe, and the area is vast and sparsely populated." Huaizhu explained softly, "I think most of the humans have gathered in the city to prevent the monsters from invading." “It’s been like this for a long time.” Jin Renfeng nodded. "No wonder the Dao Alliance chose this place for the martial arts competition. I guess they took a fancy to this point." This city is bustling and prosperous, and there are large tracts of wasteland outside. Isn't it a perfect place to hold a martial arts tournament? "Tomorrow is the day of the martial arts competition, so let's find a place to rest today."
Huaizhu suggested. "It's all up to you, Junior Sister." Jin Renfeng replied. The two men dropped their magic weapons and landed directly in the city. Because the martial arts competition is approaching, monks are coming and going frequently, and people in the city have long been accustomed to this. Jin Renfeng looked around and saw many monks in Taoist robes. "It seems that there are quite a few people like me and my junior sister who arrived early." Jin Renfeng pondered in his heart. The two walked through several streets and visited several houses before they found an inn to stay in. As there were so many people attending the conference, the inns in the city were quite crowded. Fortunately, they arrived early and had time to find a room. . . . . . . into the night. Jin Renfeng sat cross-legged on the bed, meditating and practicing Qi. Although the "Hunyuan Yiqi Longhu Chunyang Zhenjing" he practiced can be improved on its own, concentrating on practicing can still improve efficiency. In pursuit of immortality, Jin Renfeng does not want to miss any opportunity to improve his strength. "Master brother, sister, I'm here to see you, are you there?" Suddenly, a shout was heard from outside. Jin Renfeng suddenly opened his eyes. "Is this voice Qin Lan?" He stood up suddenly and walked out of the room quickly. In the lobby of the inn, Qin Lan was holding a red wooden stick and shouting, "Master brother, sister, are you here?" "This girl, why is she here?" At this time, Huaizhu also walked out from the next room. When he saw Qin Lan, he was also surprised. "Who's making so much noise this late?" As if disturbed by the noise, several figures in Taoist robes walked out of the surrounding rooms, speaking in unfriendly tones. The leader was tall and strong, wearing a Taoist robe. He was obviously a member of the Taoist Alliance who was participating in the martial arts competition. "Junior sister, go and bring Qin Lan here first. I will negotiate with the people in the inn." Jin Renfeng said to Huai Zhu. Huaizhu nodded slightly, turned around and walked down the stairs.
Jin Renfeng turned around and walked towards the people standing beside him. "Excuse me, everyone. The girl downstairs is my junior sister. She got separated from me before, but now I have found her. I was so excited that I made such a loud noise." "I hope you guys can understand." He bowed and apologized to several people. Qin Lan was wrong in this matter, so he should take the initiative to apologize. Seeing his sincere attitude, those people didn't say anything more. "Forget it this time. Don't make a fuss so late at night next time. We also need to rest." After complaining a few words, he turned around and went back to his room. . . . . . . . "I was really hungry this time. Finally I have a chance to have a good meal." In Huaizhu's room, Qin Lan sat at the table, holding a bowl and chopsticks in her hands, shoveling food and rice into her mouth. "Qin Lan, you haven't told me how you got here!" Huaizhu on the side frowned slightly and said in a reproachful tone. "Didn't Dad forbid you to come?" "hey-hey!" Qin Lan smiled. Her cheeks were puffed out like a groundhog's. "There was a big demon causing trouble outside, and my father went out to subdue the demon. He had no time to take care of me, so I ran out of the villa by myself and came to find you, my sister." "So you ran away secretly." Huaizhu's expression gradually turned cold, and a dangerous light flashed in his eyes. "But this place is nearly a thousand miles away from Shenhuoshan Villa. How could you get here alone?" The two women were sitting opposite each other, and Jin Renfeng asked. The last time he saw Qin Lan flying a sword, her shaky posture and the distance of a thousand miles were definitely a big problem for her. "Just fly it over here!" Qin Lan said proudly, "Although my magic power is not as good as my sister's, I can still control objects without any problem." "When my mana runs out, I stop to recharge. I fly for a while and then stop for a while. That's how I got here." "You little girl, you really don't know the seriousness of the matter. It's such a long journey, what if you encounter danger on the road?" Huaizhu spoke with a tone of blame. "Sister, I'm not stupid. With my strength, ordinary people are no match for me."
"As for those who practice Taoism, I try to avoid them. They can't see me, and they can't harm me." Qin Lan said. "I was just too tired. In order to catch up with my sister, I didn't even dare to go into the inn. I didn't drink a drop of water for the whole day." "You sneaked out this time, the people at the villa must be worried to death." Huaizhu shook his head slowly. "It doesn't matter. The tournament will only last two days anyway. I'll be back soon." Qin Lan waved his hand. "Daddy is not here, no one will blame them." "That won't work. If you're missing, how worried will the people in the villa be? They've had a hard time these past two days." Huaizhu frowned. "I'll take you back after you finish your meal." "Sister, I just got here!" Qin Lan couldn't believe it. "If you send me back like this, then wouldn't my trip here be in vain?" "This matter cannot be discussed." Huaizhu's tone was firm. Seeing her sister's firm attitude, Qin Lan put down her chopsticks, lowered her head, tears in her eyes, and her tender little face was full of grievance, as if she was about to cry at any time. Seeing her like this, Jin Renfeng on the side couldn't help but feel a little soft-hearted. "Junior sister, you see Qin Lan has come all the way here, it's not easy, why not let her stay here for two days." He advised. "Over there at the villa——" "It's okay at the villa. I can go back at night and tell them about Qin Lan's situation. The Golden Phoenix Road. "At my speed, one night is enough to go back and forth." "My senior brother has to compete tomorrow. How can I let him be so tired? I'll take her back!" "It's just a preliminary round, it's not a big deal." Jin Renfeng stood up calmly, looking relaxed, as if he didn't care about the thousand-mile distance. "Master brother, thank you so much for this time. I owe you a favor." As soon as she saw someone agreed to help, Qin Lan immediately smiled happily, no longer showing her previous sad look as if she was about to cry. Seeing her like this, Jin Renfeng couldn't help but shake his head.
This little girl is not very old and her acting skills are really good. She fooled him easily. Huaizhu couldn't help but glare at Qin Lan who was getting too proud of herself. "There's no time to lose. You sisters should have a good chat! I'll be back soon." Since he had agreed, Jin Renfeng had no intention of going back on his word. He walked straight out of the room. Huaizhu pulled Qin Lan, who was holding a chicken leg, and walked her out the door. "Brother, please be careful on the road." In front of the inn, Huaizhu said softly. Jin Renfeng nodded, leaped into the air, and disappeared. "Now that I have the help of my senior brother, I am completely out of trouble." Qin Lan said softly as he watched the young man go away. "Nothing? I don't think so!" Huaizhu turned his head and stared at the girl with a cold expression. "Sister, what's wrong with you?" Seeing her sister's expression change, Qin Lan felt that something was wrong. "What did you say happened?" "You've really grown up now, you can even do something like running away from home. I have to run around for you late at night. The whole villa is worried about you." "You made so many mistakes in just one day. What's wrong?" Huaizhu raised her eyebrows and spoke in an annoyed tone. "Didn't I make a mistake?" Qin Lan said timidly. "Do you think you can let this go by admitting your mistake?" As he spoke, Huaizhu grabbed Qin Lan's wrist and pulled her outside. "I have to teach you a lesson today! I want you to remember this lesson." It's too late now, it's not suitable to beat the child in the inn. It's better to go outside. "Sister, I am your most beloved sister! Could you bear to hit me?" "If you don't beat me, you're going to rebel." The two figures disappeared into the night, followed by the sound of a little girl crying and slapping. . . . . . .
The next morning, outside the inn, Jin Renfeng stretched and yawned. Yesterday, he went back and forth to Shenhuoshan Manor, which took him four hours. He was inevitably a little tired for a while. "Thank you for your help yesterday, Senior Brother!" Beside him, Huaizhu said apologetically. "It's okay. It just takes some effort." Jin Renfeng waved his hand nonchalantly. "How come Qin Lan is so depressed after just one night? She doesn't even want to talk?" After hearing what he said, Qin Lan glared at him hatefully and rubbed her buttocks inadvertently with her little hands. "This girl made a mistake yesterday and I gave her a lesson." Huaizhu said nonchalantly, "I guess he's just being angry now." Hearing that Qin Lan was beaten, Jin Renfeng couldn't help laughing out loud. It's a skill that Qin Lan can provoke the gentle Huai Zhu to take action. The three of them held up their flying swords, rose into the air, and flew out of the city. Although the participants of the martial arts competition are all newcomers, the power of their spells is not small, and it is inevitable that they will cause damage to the surrounding areas. In order to avoid affecting the lives of people in the city, the venue for the rookie competition is usually set up in a remote place outside the city wall. Half a quarter of an hour later, the two arrived at the venue. The venue was chosen near a low mountain, and quite a few people had already gathered in the venue. At a glance, there are about a thousand people. "There are so many people in this martial arts tournament!" The Golden Phoenix Road, "This martial arts competition is a grand event for the Dao Alliance, so there will naturally be many people watching." Huaizhu Road. The two men found an open space and dropped their swords. After putting away the Xunli Sword, Jin Renfeng looked around. The surroundings were bustling with people everywhere. Looking around, Jin Renfeng didn't see any familiar faces from the Blue Sky Conference. "That's right. The young geniuses in the Blue Sky Conference are all around my age. At this age, they don't have the strength to participate in the newcomer competition." Jin Renfeng said lightly.
Just as he was about to walk around and learn about the competition, suddenly, a burst of discussions broke out around him. "Aren't the fat guy and the tall and thin guy the sons of the Xiao family?" "Are they coming to the conference too?" "Someone from the Xiao family?" Jin Renfeng looked in the direction of the angle of view and saw two figures, one fat and one thin, standing in the open space surrounding the crowd. They were the two members of the Xiao family who followed Xiao Wancheng that day. "It should be the fat second brother who should attend. The eldest brother is over the age limit for the conference and cannot participate." Someone next to me said. "How can the Xiao family have the leisure to participate in this martial arts competition? Haven't they always looked down on this martial arts competition?" "I heard that after the Yang family incident last time, Shenhuoshan Villa, the Yang family, and the Li family jointly impeached Xiao Wancheng for unfair law enforcement." "In order to calm the public anger, the leader dismissed Xiao Wancheng from the position of Chief Prosecutor and asked a member of the Wang Quan family to temporarily take over as Chief Prosecutor." “The Xiao family’s reputation is in tatters now, so I guess he’s here to make a name for himself.” "Hey! The Xiao family has done so many evil things, and finally they hit a wall." "Who says it's not true? I've been so arrogant and domineering all the time, and now I'm finally getting my comeuppance." It seems that Xiao Wancheng had exposed Butler Fei's fault last time, which angered the Wang Quan family, so they punished him. Listening to the discussions of the crowd, Jin Renfeng thought. Otherwise, even facing the three families, the Wang Quan family would not easily punish their own gloves. Looking at the two people at the edge of the crowd, Jin Renfeng's eyes were filled with contemplation. They have a grudge against me and they attended the conference. I have to confront them no matter what. Instead of waiting for them to come to you, it is better to take the initiative and avenge the past. . . . . . . "Tianyuan, you must do your best this time. Try to win the championship." The tall and thin man patted the fat man on the shoulder and warned him, "Our father was dismissed from his position as Attorney General, and now our Xiao family has become a laughing stock of the Dao Alliance." "In order to revive the family's reputation, your father asked you to attend this conference and also took out the inherited magic weapon, the Soul-Subduing Whip. You must not let him down." "Don't worry! Big brother, I will never let father down." The fat man said in a deep voice, tightening the whip in his hand. "It's true that enemies often meet in a narrow road. I didn't expect to run into you two here."
A sneer suddenly sounded. "Who?" The fat man turned his head and glared at the crowd. Under the intimidation of the Xiao family's reputation, the crowd quickly made way, revealing a figure. (End of this chapter)
