Although Long Yu and Shu Chan had walked away, their conflict with Long Yao was still seen by many people.
"I didn't expect Long Yu to be so confident. Could it be that the Heavenly Mandate Manor he is in has some hidden power that allows them to stand out in the grand event of the Imperial Capital?"
"That's unlikely. Not long ago, there was news that the strongest person in the Heavenly Mandate Manor was just a female cultivator in the Six Realms of Divinity. How could she fight against the Long House?"
"Also, I heard that the Heavenly Mandate Manor seemed to have offended the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan and the Ling Snow Fox Clan. These two fox clans have been asking around about the Heavenly Mandate Manor."
"Hehe, your news is outdated. Don't you know that the daughter of the clan leader of the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan ran away with an outsider? She also took away the Divine Implement of the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan. That is an upper-grade Desolation Level Weapon. "
"That's right. I heard that too. Moreover, the daughter of the clan leader of the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan is now in the Heavenly Mandate Manor. If nothing goes wrong, the Heavenly Mandate Manor will be targeted by many forces in the grand event of the Imperial Capital."
"Also, the Chenyang House had one of their subordinates killed at the gate of the Heavenly Mandate Manor. They won't let the Heavenly Mandate Manor off the hook. I'd like to see how this Manor Lord named Long Yu is going to deal with so many opponents."
"I have a friend who works in a casino. I heard that this Long Yu went to several casinos and bet a thousand divine coins that the Heavenly Mandate Manor would make it into the top 100 of the grand event of the Imperial Capital."
"Top 100? This guy is really dreaming. Does he think it's so easy to make it into the top 100? "
…
The entire central square of the North Snow Imperial Capital was bustling with noise. Everyone was whispering and discussing. Long Yu didn't bother to pay attention to them.
However, just as he and Shu Chan took a few steps forward, a large group of people blocked their way.
"The Fox Clan?"
Long Yu raised his head and squinted. He saw a group of martial arts cultivators in fiery red robes. The leader was a middle-aged man with a serious expression. He was actually a cultivator of the Fox Clan in the King Realm.
"You are Long Yu of the Heavenly Mandate Manor?"
This King Realm expert of the Fox Clan blocked in front of Long Yu with his men. He stared at Long Yu condescendingly and said in a cold voice.
"It's me."
Long Yu replied indifferently. He glanced at the other party and saw that behind this middle-aged Fox Clan King, there were many Seven and Six Daos Transcendent Realm Demonic Cultivators. All of them were staring at him with ill intentions.
"Where is my daughter, Huo Mei 'er?"
That King Realm Fox Clan powerhouse's aura was awe-inspiring. When he asked this question, his whole body's aura was released. It seemed that he was trying to use his aura to suppress Long Yu.
Unfortunately, Long Yu wasn't affected by his opponent's aura at all.
"You must be Huo Mei 'er's father, the patriarch of the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan, Huo Haocang."
Long Yu said leisurely, "I know why you are looking for me, but I'm afraid you will be disappointed. Your daughter is not willing to return to the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan and listen to your orders to marry someone she doesn't like. If you insist on marrying her to the Snow Fox Clan, I'm afraid she will never want to see you again in this life. "
"Bullsh * t, who do you think you are? How dare you speak to our patriarch like this?"
Behind the middle-aged fox king, a subordinate of the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan shouted. He pointed at Long Yu and scolded, "You are just a kid in the Three Divine Realms. How dare you be so arrogant and domineering? You really have a death wish!"
The patriarch of the King Realm Fox Clan was called Huo Haocang. He was Huo Mei 'er's father. At this time, he raised his hand and signaled the people behind him to be silent.
"You are very courageous. You dare to fight against the Heavenly Fire Fox Clan with a manor that is about to be eliminated?"
Huo Haocang said coldly to Long Yu, "I see that you have offended the Dragon House of the Imperial Capital. You really don't know your place. But it doesn't matter. It is enough to know that my daughter is indeed in your Heavenly Mandate Manor.
If you want to take her away by force, I'm afraid you will regret it. "
The corners of Long Yu's mouth curled up slightly. He was not afraid of the faint threat in the other's tone.
Currently, most of the buildings in the Heavenly Mandate Manor had been reinforced by the Divine Rune Crystals. Furthermore, it was protected by Gu Yixian. It was impossible for anyone to break in.
It was impossible for Huo Haocang to send people to take Huo Mei 'er away by force.
"Let's go."
Huo Haocang did not want to say anything more to Long Yu. Perhaps in his eyes, Long Yu was already a dead man. It was not worth his time.
He raised his hand, turned around, and left with his subordinates.
On the other side, a group of demon cultivators of the Snow Fox Clan dressed in snow-white robes were also paying attention to what was happening. An unusually handsome young man looked at Long Yu with a sinister look in his eyes.
He was the young master of the Snow Fox Clan, Ling Zimo.
If Chihuo had not brought Huo Mei 'er back to the Heavenly Mandate Manor, Huo Mei' er would have been married to Ling Zimo and become his wife.
His wife had run away with someone else, and she had even run away to hide in the Heavenly Mandate Manor where Long Yu was. It was obvious that Ling Zimo did not have a good impression of Long Yu. If he had the chance, he would definitely want to get rid of Long Yu.
The people of the Snow Fox Clan did not come up to say anything to Long Yu. In their eyes, Long Yu was also a dead man.
As for the matter of Huo Mei 'er, her father, Huo Haocang, could handle it himself.
The conflict between Long Yu and the Crown Prince of the Dragon House, Long Yao, and the clan leader of the Heaven Fire Fox Clan, Huo Haocang, was just a small interlude in the Central Square. There were even more intense conflicts elsewhere.
There were a total of 256 forces in the North Snow Dynasty gathered together. Many of them did not have good relations with each other. For example, the Asura County and the Ghost County of the Tianqin Dynasty had been enemies for generations.
If it were not for the restraint of the dynasty, such enemies would have long started a war with each other. They would not stop until one of them was completely destroyed.
The conflict between these enemies was much more intense than what Long Yu had encountered. It was likely that from the beginning of the grand event in the Imperial Capital to the end, the atmosphere would be filled with the smell of gunpowder.
The opening ceremony of the Imperial Capital grand event was about to officially begin.
Tens of thousands of people gathered in the Central Square. Originally, it was chaotic and crowded together. However, when an unusually beautiful giant ice bird descended from the sky and landed in the middle of the square, the entire scene quieted down.
Yu Hanxin had arrived!
Yu Hanxin was the pride of the entire North Snow Dynasty. She had an extremely terrifying prestige in the hearts of everyone present. She was a genius Demon Cultivator that had caught the eye of one of the Five Emperors and was about to be accepted as a disciple.
Perhaps not long after, the North Snow Dynasty would be promoted to the Northern Snow Empire because of Yu Hanxin. In that case, the status of the forces within the North Snow Dynasty would rise along with the tide.
Therefore, when Yu Hanxin arrived, the tens of thousands of people in the square shut their mouths at the same time. They did not want to show the slightest bit of disrespect to Yu Hanxin!
Long Yu and Shu Chan naturally quietened down and chose a place to sit down.
Yu Hanxin descended from the sky and quickly transformed from a giant ice bird into a slender and elegant woman. She stood in the middle of the square and glanced at the surrounding people.
"I'm very happy. It's another year. The grand event of the North Snow Dynasty is about to begin. I believe that everyone does not want to hear any nonsense. Regarding the rules of the Imperial Capital grand event, many jade slips have been distributed to everyone. I don't know either!
Yu Hanxin looked around and pursed her lips lightly. She smiled and said, "Next, we'll draw lots for the first round. I believe that everyone already knows that the first round of the Imperial Capital grand event is a ten-man team battle. As for your opponents, it will all depend on the drawing of lots this time. "
After saying this, she walked down the stage. She was followed by an old Demon Cultivator who was also an Emperor Realm cultivator.
This Emperor Realm Demon Cultivator was the Imperial Advisor of the North Snow Dynasty who presided over the Imperial Capital grand event every year. His status was respected, and before Yu Hanxin's rise, he was one of the most powerful figures in the entire North Snow Dynasty.
But now, this Imperial Advisor could only submit to Yu Hanxin. They were both Emperor Realm cultivators, but this old man had admitted that he was no match for Yu Hanxin in a head-on battle.
"Next, send your representatives up to draw lots. There are two hundred and forty-four jade scrolls here, and the numbers from one to two hundred and forty-four are recorded in them."
The old Imperial Advisor said, "Those who draw lot one will fight against the force with lot two hundred and forty-four. Those who draw lot two will fight against the force with lot two hundred and forty-three, and so on."
The rules of the drawing of lots were simple and clear. There was nothing much to say. There were only two hundred and forty-four jade scrolls in total because the twelve great forces with King Realm young geniuses didn't need to participate in the first round.
The other great forces each sent a representative up the stage to draw lots. As for Long Yu and Shu Chan, they didn't need to choose anyone. This was because the Heavenly Mandate Manor and Asura Manor had only sent their representatives.
Everyone went up the stage to draw lots, and the results were soon out.
"What's your number?"
Long Yu asked Shu Chan as he walked down the stage with the jade scroll in hand.
"Number eight."
Shu Chan raised her head and glanced at Long Yu. "What about you?"
"Number ninety-nine."
Long Yu glanced at the jade scroll in his hand.
This meant that the Asura Manor would face the force with the number two hundred and thirty-seven, and the Heavenly Mandate Manor would face the force with the number one hundred and forty-six.
As for who their opponent was, it would soon be announced on the stage.
After everyone finished drawing lots, the old demonic Imperial Advisor stood in the field and said, "Now, starting from number one, come up and register the list of ten people who will fight."
The list of ten people who would fight in the first round had already been decided by Long Yu. As for the list of people from Asura Manor, it was just decided yesterday because Jiang Yixing had just arrived with his people last night.
The main purpose of this round was to let everyone know who their opponents in the first round would be.
When the force with the number one jade scroll went up the stage to register, the audience immediately began to discuss. Because the force with the number two hundred and forty-four jade scroll already knew who their opponent would be!
As one force after another sent people up the stage to register their candidates, the various forces gradually knew who their opponents would be.
When Long Yu went up the stage with the number ninety-nine jade scroll, he noticed that the eyes of many people from the Ling Snow Fox clan not far away lit up. They looked at him as if they were looking at a fat sheep.
"Could it be that the Ling Snow County got number 146?"
