Within the light blue sealing formation were two blood-red meridians. They also began to gradually dissipate, breaking down bit by bit and turning into a faint bloody light.
Luo Qingyun's eyes narrowed slightly as he quickly memorized the formation diagram in his mind.
All of this happened in the instant the ape's body was destroyed. He closed his eyes lightly and fell into deep thought.
Blood and various pieces of flesh fell from the sky, landing on his body and face. The heat of the blood actually corroded holes in his robes.
Luo Qingyun opened his eyes and said self-deprecatingly, "The Wenlin I see today may be the Qingyun I will see in the future."
He put away his spear and turned to leave in large strides, leaving behind a mess and a wasteland.
…
In Crimson Moon City, after the gathering of heroes, the entire city was talking about Ning Keyue and Dongmen Yuan.
"Tsk! Ning Keyue is a beast tamer. Only you could think of controlling a demon pigeon to fight! "
"Although I didn't see it with my own eyes, my third aunt's uncle's neighbor's son's father-in-law's superior's senior sister saw it with her own eyes. How could she lie to me!"
"Hmph, to tell you the truth, the niece of my second uncle's seventh uncle's uncle's uncle's uncle's aunt's cousin's wife is the fiancé of the Jiang family's mistress in Crimson Moon City! She said that Ning Keyue had the demon pigeon bloodline and turned into a fat pigeon during the battle, which was how he defeated Dongmen Yuan! You should know that at the same level, demonic beasts are much more powerful than humans! "
"Mm, this speculation makes sense, but it's not the truth. The truth is that Ning Keyue was originally a pigeon man of the demon race and had always been kept in captivity by Crimson Moon City. This was just a small test. Sigh, don't ask me how I know. I won't tell you, but the breeder who kept Ning Keyue happened to be my childhood playmate. He was the son-in-law of an old woman in the village where he was raised as a child. "
The entire Crimson Moon City was talking about that battle with great relish. The moon turning red was also a hot topic, indicating that Crimson Moon City would be overcrowded for the next few months.
At this moment, inside the mansion of the Ruan family, the trees were lush and lush, and the flowers were shining. There was a clear stream. Under the twists and turns of the flowers and trees, there was a bridge across the water, leading to the pavilion.
There was an octagonal table in the pavilion. Ruan Zimao was burning incense and playing the zither.
Ruan Yuansi asked, "Tomorrow is the arena battle. How confident are you?"
Ruan Zimao was calm and composed. The injuries on his body had all healed, and his cultivation seemed to have advanced a step further. He said, "Ten out of ten!"
Ruan Yuansi smiled and said, "Not bad, I like your confidence. Most of the time, strength doesn't decide everything. If that Li Yunxiao suddenly appears, do you have the confidence to win? "
When Ruan Zimao heard this name, his eyes flashed with a trace of haze. He said coldly, "Of course. The metal piece in my hand is something that he desperately wants. Back then, he also agreed to kill Li Yi and not participate in the competition in exchange for it. It's clear how attractive this metal piece is to him. "
His eyes showed doubt. He stopped playing the zither and took out the metal piece. He said, "Father, what is this thing? That Ninth Aunt is also unwilling to say, but it's definitely something extraordinary."
Ruan Yuansi frowned and said, "Although I can't be sure, I guess it's some kind of inherited technique. It's just that we can't find the key to it, so it's useless to keep it. If Li Yunxiao can't rush out before the arena, then this metal piece will be even more useful! "
Ruan Zimao was stunned. He said, "Father, you mean the inherited technique on the throne?"
Ruan Yuansi smiled and said, "That's right! The Castellan who sealed the throne was known as the strongest generation of Scarlet Moon City's Castellans. How could the technique he left behind be ordinary? "
Ruan Zimao nodded slightly and continued to play the zither, calming his turbulent heart.
Ruan Yuansi said, "Ziling, you've been absent-minded since the beginning. Many times, you wanted to say something but stopped. What's the matter? This isn't like you. "
Ruan Ziling, who had been standing by the side, shuddered all over. Large beads of cold sweat started to drip down his body.
Ruan Yuansi and Ruan Zimao both frowned. They seemed to have a bad premonition.
Ruan Ziling could no longer conceal it. He immediately recounted the matter of Nihong Bridge from beginning to end. He didn't dare to exaggerate at all. After he finished talking, he discovered that he was already drenched in cold sweat.
Slap!
A slap directly sent him flying. Although it was incomparably painful, his heart relaxed instead.
Ruan Yuansi's face was livid. He rebuked angrily, "Wastrel, infuriating me to death!"
He instantly turned into a streak of light and headed out of the city.
Ruan Zimao's expression was also solemn. He said, "Ziling, you really poked a hole in the sky this time! Although that Aegirine was placed outside the wilderness, its importance goes without saying. It's even related to the Old City Lord's whereabouts. You don't know the gravity of the matter! "
Ruan Ziling was so frightened that he shuddered. He was almost about to cry. He said, "Brother, how would I know that Li Yunxiao could actually defeat three Emperor Wu's experts? Moreover, the Gou brothers aren't ordinary Emperor Wu's! Besides, there's also the Taihua Golden Talisman Lock Formation. This … was originally a sure-win situation! "
Ruan Zimao said, "It's definitely impossible to rely on Li Yunxiao alone. Something else must have happened during the time you were gone. As for the situation, only Li Yunxiao knows. Fortunately, he's still in the Breeze and Moon Garden. Perhaps there's still a chance for things to turn around. During this period of time, you stay in the Ruan Family and don't go out. This matter will be decided by Lord Father. "
He pondered for a while. Then, he flew towards the Breeze and Moon Garden in the sky.
The next day, the streets were empty. Everyone was crowded in the city's largest square. They were waiting for the long-awaited martial contest to find a spouse.
Jiang Family's daughter was marrying off. The city was filled with red makeup. Everywhere was crowded, yet orderly. Both sides of the road were already paved with countless roses. A light breeze blew the petals, filling the entire city with their fragrance.
The shops, houses, trees, and everything else that could be hung were covered with red ribbons. All of the Imperial Guards of Crimson Moon City were mobilized as well. There was an endless stream of people, all of them smiling as they watched the once-in-a-lifetime martial arts competition for a spouse.
In the middle of the square, the arena for the contest was temporarily transformed from a profound level weapon. There were ferocious-looking beast heads on each of its four corners. In order to cater to today's atmosphere, the beast heads had been completely transformed into four smiling dolls, each holding a toy in their hands. There was no murderous atmosphere at all.
Behind the arena, on the viewing platform built with white jade, Jiang Ruobing, who was dressed in red makeup and had her hair draped over her shoulders, sat upright in the upper right corner. On each side of her were three servant girls.
There was a limited number of seats on the viewing platform. Apart from the upper echelons of Red Moon City, only a few people of high status were qualified to sit. At the same time, they were also the witnesses.
Below the arena was a huge war drum that was as tall as two people. A ray of light descended from the sky, and a strong man appeared in front of the war drum. He held a drumstick in his hand, and after gesturing upwards, he abruptly struck the drum!
"Dong!"
An extremely powerful sound wave rippled out from the drum, spreading throughout the entire city. It was like the beating of a heart, causing everyone's bodies to tremble, and they immediately stopped all noise.
At the center of the city, which was packed with people, there was a sudden deathly silence.
Not only did the sound of the drum stop, but it also seemed to have some kind of influence. It caused everyone present to feel a surge of hot blood in their bodies. It was as if their blood was burning and they wanted to fight with their lives on the line.
Especially those young talents in the front row, each and every one of them was breathing heavily. They all knew that their chances of winning were extremely small. However, this was definitely the best opportunity to learn from their peers. They were all rubbing their fists and waiting for the battle. Perhaps the heavens would drop a curtain and give them a big surprise.
"Dong!"
The drum shook for the second time. The space on the viewing platform slightly distorted. In the midst of the shaking, Jiang Churan and Ruan Hongyu appeared together, immediately causing a commotion and screams.
The City Lord of Red Moon City had always lived in seclusion. Even the people in the city rarely saw him. However, because the city's laws were extremely strict and the various forces and merchants were extremely well protected, he was deeply popular.
Jiang Churan was dressed in a stone blue robe with a dark purple bat pattern tied around his waist. His long hair was like the clouds, and his bright eyes were like the moon. He had the extraordinary bearing of a Great Grandmaster.
He nodded to the upper echelons and distinguished guests in the city one by one. Then, he slowly walked to the front of the stage and said with a smile, "Thank you all for coming from far away to participate in my daughter's marriage by combat. Churan is very honored. At the same time, I can see the elegant demeanor of the outstanding juniors in the world. It is also a happy event in life. The rules have already been announced to the world, so I won't talk about it in detail. Let's begin. "
He lightly waved his sleeves and returned to his seat. His speech was so short that it shocked everyone. He was marrying off his daughter, why didn't he say anything else?
The space on the stage shook slightly as a maroon attire man appeared in the center of the stage. He had a head of flaxen hair, and his eyes were as bright as a tiger's. He had a smile on the corner of his mouth and said, "I am Jiang Bieli, and I am the host of this martial contest for a spouse. I will be the judge of the outcome. Let's begin. Those who want to participate can come up now. "
As soon as he said that, the crowd went silent for a moment. Then, someone shouted and jumped up to the stage.
Suddenly, a green light appeared on the stage and blocked that person's path. Then, someone screamed and the man was sent flying to the ground. His face was pale.
"What! What's going on? "
Everyone stared at him in shock.
Jiang Bieli made a hand gesture and smiled, "Everyone, please be quiet. I forgot to explain. In order to prevent too many boring people from participating, the lowest cultivation level of the martial arts competition has to be a Martial Ancestor of the Ba Huang Province. Otherwise, you won't be able to enter the stage. "
"I see. That's right. Otherwise, if any Tom, Dick, or Harry were to go up, Jiang Ruobing wouldn't be able to finish the challenge tournament even if she was a hundred years old! "
Cheng Haomiao said indifferently.
Beside him, Beiming Lai Feng sighed and said, "Sigh, how boring. The outcome of this game is already decided. Even Lady Ruobing herself has been replaced by a fake. Only these minions are enjoying the game. I feel that coming here to watch the show is really boring."
Cheng Haomiao was surprised and said, "How do you know it's not Jiang Ruobing?"
