At this moment, the sword in Qing Lian's hand shone with a greenish-blue radiance, as if there were electric arcs twining around it.
"Calamity!" Qing Lian didn't listen to Tong Lan's trash talk and slashed out with her sword.
Before the sword landed, everyone around felt a gust of wind. The girl in the field wasn't holding a sword, but an electric dragon that was baring its fangs and brandishing its claws.
Tong Lan gritted her teeth and took out a small dagger from her waist. The blade of the dagger was only the size of her palm, and it was covered with veined patterns that looked like blood vessels.
She held the dagger upside down in front of her.
"Boom!"
Qing Lian's sword slashed down like a gas explosion. All the flagstones in the field exploded, and Tong Lan was blown away. She flew 70 to 80 meters before crashing heavily on the ground.
"Tong Lan?"
A few students immediately dashed toward Tong Lan.
A few silhouettes landed around Qing Lian in an instant.
Four young men and women surrounded Qing Lian from four corners.
"Coming to Lan City to flaunt your prowess, do you think Dayao is weak? Sixth Uncle, bring me my rod! "Shi Gan sneered, turned his head, and shouted toward the courtyard.
Then, he turned to the other three and said, "Are you all new students this year? I can handle this. "
"So powerful, but I also want to try out the experts from Great Xia!" A young girl smiled and pulled out a dagger from her waist.
"It's too embarrassing to fight four against one. You guys fight, I will go and take a look." The other two looked at each other, took the initiative to retreat, and headed straight for Tong Lan.
Then, an iron rod as thick as a wrist flew out of the courtyard with a whistling sound and stuck diagonally into the ground.
"Thank you, Sixth Uncle!" Shi Gan stepped forward and pulled out the rod with a smile.
"If you lose, don't call me uncle." A row of heads appeared on the wall of the courtyard, and five or six people were leaning on the wall and looking out.
"Come on! You are the worst in the Shi family! "One of the burly men laughed loudly, causing another round of laughter.
Shi Gan's face immediately turned black.
After that strike, there were a lot more people on the street. About 40 to 50 people jumped out from various courtyards and surrounded them.
Qing Lian felt the aura around her and was secretly shocked. The weakest of these people was actually at the Earth Wheel level, and there were even three Spirit Wheel experts.
"Who was that movement just now? Interesting! " A heroic voice came from afar. When the last word fell, the person was already in front of them.
Everyone turned around and saw that it was Tong Zhenye!
"Hmm, interesting. It's this sword, right?" Tong Zhengye rubbed his chin as he stared at the sword in Qing Lian's hand. The power of the sword just now wasn't enough for him to specially come over to watch, but there was one thing that interested him — it gave off the feeling that it was like a bolt of lightning in the sky.
"Are you the Great Xia man who has been staying at the lady boss's place for the past two days?" Tong Zhenye recognized Qing Lian's identity. The lady boss was naturally referring to Ning Caichen.
Recently, his range of activities had shifted from House Yunyan to the Gui Family Tavern.
"However, you guys are quite bold to actually fight in front of the imperial palace." Tong Zhenye looked at Qing Lian, then looked at Shi Gan, who was holding a rod, and the young girl who was holding a short knife.
"It wasn't you two? Who is it? " Tong Zhengye immediately discovered that there were no signs of a fight between the two of them. He then looked at the people around him and had a bad premonition.
"Grandpa!" In the distance, Tong Lan looked gloomy after being helped up. She didn't expect this guy to be so powerful, and she didn't feel it at all.
Qing Lian's heart skipped a beat. This was like hitting the young, and the old came. This was going to be troublesome.
"Little Lanlan?" Tong Zhenye saw that there were bloodstains on the corner of Tong Lan's mouth and lapel, and that there were many wounds on her body. He immediately flew into a rage … He had no hair, and his beard was all standing up.
A pair of eyes that were as sharp as steel knives swept across Qing Lian, causing her to subconsciously hold her sword in front of her chest.
The surrounding students were also forced to retreat step by step due to his imposing manner. Even Shi Gan and the young girl couldn't stand still and retreated to the corner of the wall.
However, Shi Gan's vision immediately turned black as if a wall had appeared in front of him. Six burly men stood in front of him and watched the scene with folded arms.
"You came to Lan City to beat up my granddaughter, hehe!" Tong Zhengye sneered. "Do you think I should hang you on the wall to dry, or hang you on the wall after drying?"
Qing Lian frowned, glanced around, and thought to herself, Why isn't Ren Baqian here yet? I'm afraid that only Ren Baqian will be able to explain himself today.
"Sir Tong, Her Majesty wants all of you to have an audience with her!" At this moment, a woman in full armor appeared in the middle of the scene.
"Xin Zhe, wait for me to hang this little girl on the wall before following you to see Her Majesty," Tong Zhengye said.
"Her Majesty wants all of you to have an audience with her!" Xin Zhe repeated.
"Grandpa, I was the one who asked her to draw the circle. It has nothing to do with you!" Tong Lan said as she was supported by someone.
"You are my granddaughter!" Tong Zhengye glared at her.
"Why are you getting involved in the affairs of women?" Tong Lan said disdainfully.
Tong Zhengye was speechless.
"Forget it, let's go and see Her Majesty!" Tong Zhengye withdrew his surging imposing manner.
Seeing this, Qing Lian heaved a sigh of relief, but immediately became nervous again. She didn't expect to see Qi Zixiao under such circumstances.
She heard that Qi Zixiao was a rather unreasonable person, and she didn't know how she would be treated.
Of the thirty-six stratagems, the safest would be to escape. Although there were many experts around, he could still escape if he wanted to.
"Sheathe your sword and follow me to the palace to see Her Majesty!" Xin Zhe walked to Qing Lian and said coldly.
"Alright!" Qing Lian clenched her teeth and sheathed her sword.
After thinking about it, she still felt that the things that Ren Baqian talked about were rare and couldn't just leave like that.
As long as Ren Baqian was there, she would be fine, right?
Not to mention, Su Qing and Ren Baqian were still cooperating.
At this moment, she felt that Su Qing's cooperation with Ren Baqian was the right choice, but she forgot that she wouldn't be here if it wasn't for Su Qing.
A moment later, she, Tong Lan, Tong Zhengye, and the others were brought into a large hall.
"Wait, Her Majesty will see you in a while." Xin Zhe disappeared after saying this.
Tong Zhengye touched his chin and asked, "I don't seem to have anything to do today. Why am I here?"
"Even Her Majesty can't stand seeing you get involved in the affairs of women!" Tong Lan said.
Shi Gan and the others grinned and had to hold back their laughter.
Tong Zhengye's face immediately turned black as he glared at Tong Lan.
…
"Your Majesty, they are waiting in Hanyuan Palace Hall." Xin Zhe appeared in the empress's bedroom and cupped her fists.
"Oh, let them wait a little longer." The empress concentrated on playing Candy Crush and said, "Wait for Ren Baqian to come back first."
"Your Majesty, move this over!" Hong Luan whispered from behind the empress.
"I know!" The empress quickly moved the mouse.
After a while, Ren Baqian arrived at the bedroom.
Hong Luan and Qing Yuan made way for him when they saw him approaching.
Ren Baqian sniffed the empress's hair before saying, "Your Majesty, you bathed in purple orchids today."
"It was yesterday!" the empress snorted.
"To me, Your Majesty is always in the present!" Ren Baqian whispered into her ear.
"Move further away, it tickles!" The empress shrank her neck and hit him on the head with the back of her hand, causing a bump to swell up.
"However, what you said just now was rather interesting." The empress put down the mouse and muttered, "Everyone is always in the present!"
Then, she seemed to have thought of something and fell into deep thought!
"Your Majesty?" Ren Baqian called out softly.
"Sir Ren, don't disturb Her Majesty. She might be enlightened about something!" Hong Luan gently patted Ren Baqian.
"Enlightened about what?" Ren Baqian was puzzled.
"Look at Her Majesty's fingers and eyes! Her Majesty often experiences this kind of situation where she suddenly becomes enlightened about something. If she succeeds, her strength will increase, so we can't disturb her, "Hong Luan said.
Ren Baqian walked to the front of the empress and found her making a strange gesture with her fingers. Her eyes were narrowed into slits, and there seemed to be a red glow flowing through them.
Ren Baqian opened his mouth. Was this the legendary epiphany? Did the empress often experience this kind of situation?
