Xu Huai Shang had no idea what the 'trick' that Feng Bujue was talking about was but she could basically guess that the man was just making things up.
"Humph … Is that so?" Xu Huai Shang scoffed. "Then …" Her hands fell on the blades around her waist. "… Why don't you show me what you're capable of?"
Her mind was clear. In terms of bullsh * tting … she was definitely no match for Feng Bujue. If this continued, the gap between their fashion sense would only grow bigger and bigger. Therefore … Xu Huai Shang's plan was to end this embarrassing conversation as soon as possible and start the fight as soon as possible. If it really could not be ended … then she would have to fight it out.
"Hmm … Quite clever …" On the other side, Feng Bujue also thought to himself. "She knows that she is no match for me in terms of fashion sense so she wants to start the fight when the gap between us is not that big …"
Feng Bujue's mind raced and he soon came up with a solution. He slowly turned around and stood there proudly. Then he straightened his right arm and raised the sword before him. "Very well!" He roared powerfully. "In the entire martial world, only you, Xu Huai Shang, would dare to say something like that!"
"You've only been in this' Jiang Hu 'for a few minutes, haven't you? I've only just entered this scenario …" Xu Huai Shang could only say those words silently in her heart, and when she did, she had to maintain the cold and serious expression on her face …
Of course, Feng Bujue was not done yet. In these few seconds, he had already constructed a complete story about Xu Huai Shang in his heart. It included her background, family, sect, learning experience, love story and all kinds of strange things that happened in the martial world … If there was no accident, Brother Jue planned to tell this story for at least half an hour.
But … an accident happened.
"Hahahaha … Hahahahaha …" Suddenly, a burst of laughter came from the night sky.
With the laughter, both Feng Bujue and Xu Huai Shang were slightly startled. They both thought that this scenario would be a simple encounter but they did not expect … there would be someone else there.
"Ha!" After a clear shout, a figure jumped onto the roof.
It was a man, a middle-aged man.
He was dressed in an ash-colored robe and had a curly beard on his face. His appearance was very rough.
He held a saber tightly in his hand, indicating his identity … He was a saber wielder.
After the man stood still, he said to his Brother Jue, "Your words … are a little too full of yourselves!"
"Who are you?" Feng Bujue was overjoyed at the unexpected turn of events and hurriedly responded.
"Hmph … what an arrogant brat." "You don't even know me, Liao Wu, the Hundred Catty Saber of the Northern Frontier, and you dare to talk nonsense about 'looking at the entire martial world'?"
"Huh?" In order to maintain his arrogant image, Feng Bujue cast a disdainful look at the burly man. "Is this strange? There are as many nameless people in the martial arts world as there are hairs on a cow. What Tom, Dick, Harry, Fourth Brother, Fifth Brother … Do I have to recognize all of them? "
"Hmm?" Liao Wu was instantly infuriated, and his eyes widened as he said, "What a young man! You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth, yet you dare to insult others! " As he spoke, he held the sheath in his left hand and the hilt of his saber in his right. "Let me teach you a lesson on behalf of your master …"
"Wait!" Suddenly, a woman's voice rang out, stopping Liao Wu's actions.
As soon as the voice came out, so did the person. A graceful figure landed on the eaves.
The woman's figure came to a stop, revealing a pretty face. She was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. Her clothes were whiter than snow, and she held a long sword in her hand. She should be a female swordsman.
"Master Liao, please don't be angry." The woman said to Liao Wu, "Why fight over a junior's arrogant words?"
After Liao Wu saw the woman, he was silent for two seconds. "Oh … So it's' White Plum Sword 'Heroine Miao."
"You flatter me. Greetings, Master Liao." Although Miao Ying was much younger than Liao Wu, she did not address him as a senior. According to seniority, she and Liao Wu should be of the same generation.
Liao Wu scoffed and turned to look at Feng Bujue. "Hmph, kid, since Heroine Miao has pleaded on your behalf, I'll let you go this time."
"Ah … That's unnecessary." Brother Jue did not appreciate the kindness. It would be better if he started a fight with these two.
"Both of you." Xu Huai Shang quickly spoke before the two NPCs could get angry. "Today, I and …" She hesitated as she thought about how to address Brother Jue. "… Brother Feng and I are having a duel here. This is a personal matter. Can you two please stay out of it?"
"Ha! So it was really you who left the message? "At this moment, a third voice rang out …
Xu Huai Shang felt a headache coming on. She thought to herself, "Why are these guys appearing one after another … Are we still going to fight or not?"
The sound of clothes fluttering in the wind was often accompanied by the sound of flying. This person was no exception.
This person was dressed in black with a red cape. His hair was tied up neatly and his face was as clear as jade. He did not seem to be carrying any weapons. At least … he did not seem to be carrying any.
"Tang Yun 'er, why are you here?" Liao Wu asked immediately.
"Ha! Why? If you can come, why can't I? "Tang Yun 'er replied." Those who have heard of' that news' must be curious. "
"What news?" Xu Huai Shang asked.
"Of course it's …" Tang Yun 'er stopped mid-sentence because when he turned around and saw Xu Huai Shang, his mind went blank. He had seen his fair share of beautiful women in his life. However, this was the first time he had seen such a beautiful female warrior. In Tang Yun 'er's memory, only his own mother, the' Fairy of the Clouds' Mu Rong Yin, had such beauty.
"What is it?" Xu Huai Shang asked again.
"Er … It's …" Tang Yun 'er had already forgotten the content of the previous question.
"Hahahaha …" Liao Wu guffawed again. "You stinking brat. You can't even remember your own name when you see a beautiful lady."
Tang Yun 'er's face turned red. Being laughed at in front of a beautiful lady, of course he would be angry. "Pfft! Liao Wu, don't talk nonsense. Otherwise, I … I will … "
"What? You want to teach me a lesson too? "Liao Wu's hand was on the sword again." Hey, my bad temper … "
At that moment, Feng Bujue was laughing to himself while Xu Huai Shang was shaking her head. It looked like … before they even started fighting, these NPCs that came out of nowhere were going to start fighting.
"A month ago …" Suddenly, a fourth voice rang out. "Someone used his amazing skills to control his sword and carved sixteen words on top of a huge pillar in the Imperial City …"
This voice was sharp but Feng Bujue felt a sense of deja vu.
Whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, another figure appeared.
This person, without a doubt, was the most powerful of the NPCs that had appeared so far. He was the fastest and the quietest. When he spoke, his voice and breath were the calmest.
Almost as soon as this person appeared, Liao Wu, Miao Ying and Tang Yun 'er's faces were filled with shock and fear. They were all top-notch fighters in the martial arts world. They were not ordinary people. But … in just one encounter, the three of them realized … that this person's kung fu was unfathomable. In fact … it was unbelievable.
"On the night of the full moon, on top of the Forbidden City. A sword from the west, a celestial from beyond the heavens. " The voice continued, "Haha … At the time, I was still wondering who … would have such courage and such kung fu to issue a challenge to someone in the royal city." He walked slowly towards Brother Jue. "But in the end … it was you."
The man took a few steps forward and the moonlight illuminated his face.
When Feng Bujue saw his face, he smiled and saluted, "Feng Bujue greets Eunuch Cao."
"Oh God …" Xu Huai Shang chanted God's name in her heart, "What kind of development is this?"
"Haha … It's been 30 years, Master Feng …" Cao Xin looked up and down at Feng Bujue. "… How have you been?"
As soon as he said that, Feng Bujue understood. It had been 30 years since he last entered this universe.
But there was a problem … Cao Xin did not look much older. He looked no older than 50.
"I'm fine …" Feng Bujue smiled. "Eunuch Cao, you look good as well. You are getting younger with age."
"Hmph …" Cao Yan snorted coldly with his androgynous voice. "I was born a genius with an outstanding constitution. Moreover, fifteen years ago, I achieved great success in the Divine Art and entered the Celestial Realm. For her to have such an appearance … is not surprising. " As he said that, he glared at Brother Bujue. "But you, Master Feng … You surprised me. Could it be that you are one of those immortal gods?"
"Hahahaha …" Feng Bujue laughed heartily. He bought himself a few seconds to come up with a lie. "I'm not very likable. The King of Hell doesn't want to accept me." He replied jokingly.
Cao Xin was a smart man. He did not pursue the matter. He stroked a ribbon on the brim of his hat in a charming manner and replied, "Forget it if you don't want to tell me. I'm not interested anyway." With that, he turned around and glanced at the people around him.
The three masters who were so confident a moment ago shivered when they saw Cao Xin's gaze. Only Xu Huai Shang … remained as calm as still water, unmoved.
"Master Feng, if you want to find someone to fight, that's fine." Cao Xin continued, "If you want to fight in the royal palace …" He sighed. "To be honest … that's fine." He pointed into the distance. "But why did you leave a message a month in advance?" He paused and said, "Do you know … how much trouble this has brought to the imperial court?"
"It's my fault … for not thinking things through …" Feng Bujue admitted his mistake. He did not want to make an enemy out of Cao Xin. If there was a 'Survival Guide in the Wuxia World', there would be a chapter titled 'Don't Mess with Eunuch Cao'.
"Sigh … Fine." Cao Xin shook his head. "Fortunately, I was prepared so the news did not spread in the martial arts world. There are less than a hundred people who know about this. There are more than thirty people who came to the royal palace tonight. However, only three of them managed to sneak in. "
As Cao Xin spoke, he placed his hands behind his back and looked at the three people. "The three of you are quite capable." His gaze was like a sharp knife, drawing a cold gleam in the night sky. "I know that if I sent a normal master from the imperial court, they might not be able to take you down. So, half an hour ago, I ordered all the imperial guards around here to evacuate. I am prepared to come here personally … and start a massacre … "
At this point, the three of them felt their blood run cold.
Cao Xin continued, "But … I am very happy to see an old friend today." He smiled. "And this duel … I want to watch it."
Liao Wu, Miao Ying and Tang Yun 'er's emotions were on a roller coaster ride. For a brief moment, they thought that they were going to die. But now, it seemed like there was still a chance.
"How about this …" Cao Xin said as he walked over the roof and stood beside the three people. "When they are done, I will send you out. But the condition is … you will never tell anyone about what happened today, or else … "
Before he could say something like "I will wipe out your entire family", the quick-witted Miao Ying had already said, "Thank you for not killing us, senior."
Tang Yun 'er also saw the wind and quickly cupped her hands. "Thank you, senior."
Liao Wu was also terrified now. He stammered, "Thank … Thank you, eunuch …"
"Mm …" Cao Xin nodded in satisfaction. Actually, he was not a homicidal maniac. What he needed … was the feeling of being respected.
To be honest, when one reached Cao Xin's level, there were not many things he wanted. He had peerless martial arts, money and power. He could not afford women, but he had taken in many godson. The only things that could make him happy now were his vanity and pride. The main reason why Cao Xin had a good impression of Feng Bujue was that he did not see any discrimination in Master Feng's eyes. This kind of respect was much stronger than the "respect due to fear" that he was used to.
"You children of the martial world only know how to enjoy the show, but you don't know that there will always be someone better than you." Cao Xin continued. "Thirty years ago, during the Chang Lin Tournament, Lin Chang's Shapeless and Formless Dharma was unparalleled. Even Ye Cheng and Xie San were defeated by him. The so-called One Family, Two Pavilions, Three Factions and Four Clans were nothing compared to him." He paused for two seconds. "At the time, if not for this Master Feng, the martial world would not exist today." With a lecturing tone, he said to the three "experts" who were already dumbfounded, "And now, your generation is even more reckless. Humph … You only know some basic kung fu, and you dare to barge into the royal palace. " He laughed coldly and raised his head to look at Brother Jue and Xu Huai Shang. "Take a closer look … What is a real expert?"
The wind was still blowing.
The night was not over.
But the blade … was still in its sheath.
Under the burning gaze of the four audience members, Feng Bujue's Fashion Value rose again, and it became a positive fifty. And thanks to Brother Jue, Xu Huai Shang's Fashion Value rose to eighteen.
"So, that's why … He has been to this scenario before." Xu Huai Shang arranged what she had heard in her heart. "And he is acquainted with that Eunuch Cao." She thought about it. "Thankfully, the background of this Killing Game is a 'duel', so the NPC probably won't help him directly …"
At the same time, Brother Jue was thinking, "So, that's why … It's this world. This universe does not have Ye Gu Cheng or Xi Men Chuixue, so the setting has been applied to us …" His eyes moved slightly to look at the sword in his hand. "The 'skill' that I mentioned just now fits the description of Flying Fairy, but … how would I know how to use it!"
"Quick, make your move! Feng Bujue! "Xu Huai Shang yelled as she unsheathed her blades. Now that there was an audience around them, it was much more efficient to gain the Fashion Value. If this continued, it would not be good for her.
"Before I make my move, I have one more thing to say." Feng Bujue said coldly.
"Tsk … Damn it." Xu Huai Shang grumbled internally.
But she still had to put on a cold expression and said, "Speak."
"Hmm … What should I say?" Feng Bujue wanted to drag this out and gain some Fashion Value, so at that moment, he was thinking, "How about I say 'I love you' to disturb her emotions? Hmm … She won't report me for sexual harassment, right? "His mind was filled with ideas like that." Wait a minute … As a popular idol, Xu Huai Shang has heard at least eight hundred if not one thousand love confessions. This one is not that damaging … "He then thought," Unfortunately, I am not a girl, or else I could say 'I am pregnant with your child' or something like that. Sigh … Or I could just say that I took a dump on my pants. "
But when the words reached his lips, they were swallowed back by Brother Jue. He thought to himself, "That won't do … Even if I can disturb her emotions, my own Fashion Value will plummet because of that. That is too lame …"
"What are you trying to say?" Xu Huai Shang urged. "Are you trying to buy time?" She then asked and took two steps forward.
Feng Bujue had no other choice but to say, "If I lose in the end, please bury me … together with my wife." When he said that, there was a hint of sadness in his voice, and he showed his true colors as the best actor in the industry.
"Who is it! Who is your wife! Who knows your wife! "Xu Huai Shang was about to explode.
"Okay …" She agreed to the man's strange request with a complicated expression. Due to anger and depression, her shoulders were shaking.
But from the perspective of others … Xu Huai Shang's reaction gave them a different feeling.
Tang Yun'er sighed sadly, "Sigh … It is true that the falling flower is in love with the heartless brook."
Xu Huai Shang was shocked. She screamed internally, "What! When the hell did you get here?! What did you hear?! "
"Oh?" Cao Xin seemed to have noticed something was wrong. He turned around and asked the people around him, "These two … are they in that kind of relationship?"
"Sigh … I pity this lady. She is sincere but that Master Feng is still thinking about his dead wife." Miao Ying nodded.
"Ah!!!" Xu Huai Shang screamed internally. She wanted to die. The expression on her face was twisted, "Heroine Miao, you must have read too many romance novels! The degree of completion of his imagination was too high! How did this kind of unmarried atmosphere come about? "
Even the burly Liao Wu chimed in, "I didn't expect Master Feng to be such a devoted man. He is not moved by beauty at all. I can't help but admire him …"
"Admire my ass! Is there any justice in this world?! "Xu Huai Shang bit down on her lips angrily. But this expression caused the people around her to misunderstand.
"If that's the case … then take this …" Feng Bujue didn't expect his words to have such a miraculous effect. He had completely disrupted Xu Huai Shang's emotions.
It was a once in a lifetime opportunity. Brother Jue got into position and attacked …
