"Oh?" Feng Yi was surprised, "What is so important to announce it in such a grand place like the Martial Arts Assembly?"
"This …" Shaoshang obviously hesitated, after thinking about it, he lowered his eyes to hide the light in his eyes and said softly, "Right now, it is not convenient for me to tell Big Brother. Wait until we reach the Kang City, Big Brother will naturally know. "
"Hehe, I didn't know that a young brat like you had a secret?" Seeing Shaoshang reveal such an expression, Chu Yunge had already guessed that Shaoshang was hiding something.
She put down the dates and clouds in her hands and sat up straight on the soft bed, staring straight at Shaoshang. A faint evil smile appeared on the corner of her mouth, as if she was coaxing a child, and she asked, "Good girl, tell Big Sis, what secrets do you have to tell me? "Tell me, maybe I can help you."
"With just you? Forget it, you're a married woman. Eat your snacks. " Shaoshang's attitude towards Chu Yunge was not as respectful as when he treated her. Seeing that Chu Yunge's curiosity towards her was so strong, she snappily spoke and scolded her.
"Calling you a little brat is really petty!" Chu Yunge was not angry. Upon hearing the young man's mockery, she instead cracked her pink lips and smiled, saying indifferently, "Have you forgotten who helped you beat up those bandits just now? "Why are you so young and your memory is actually as bad as an old man's? You even forgot about my kindness to you."
Chu Yunge spoke quite earnestly, and as she said that, she reached out her hand and picked up a plate of sugar-coated peanuts from the small table, and began to eat them with a crunch. Your mother asked me to ride in the carriage. I have remembered the kindness I paid for with my life just now. Now that I've saved your lives, even if you're unwilling to say thank you, you should at least call me big sister. "
"..." "You, you really …" Shaoshang was so angry that he couldn't speak anymore, but because he was in the wrong, he knew that Chu Yunge was not being unreasonable, and was not in a position to refute anything, he pouted and said, "Thank you elder sister for helping me earlier."
"That's more like it." Chu Yunge raised her eyebrows in satisfaction, then asked, "Do you know what you want to announce when you go to the Kang City with your mother?"
Shaoshang was unwilling to answer, he only kept his mouth shut and looked at Chu Yunge warily.
"What are you afraid of? I was just asking your mother if she knew anything. I didn't ask you what big news you were going to announce."
"My mother came with me, of course." Shaoshang finally replied.
Feng Yi interrupted him and asked in a low voice: "I wonder how many days until the Martial Arts Competition organized by Kang City is going to take place?"
"In three days it will be the right day." Hearing Feng Yi's voice, Shaoshang immediately turned his head and looked at him happily, replying with a very friendly attitude.
"Then our Kang City still has a long way to go. Can we arrive on time?" Feng Yi asked.
"Don't worry, Big Brother." Big Brother, don't worry. The rest of the journey was a busy one for the caravan. There would be no bandits blocking the way. We need to speed up, and we can still reach the Kang City a day ahead of time. " Shaoshang explained to Feng Yi in great detail.
"In that case, I am relieved." Feng Yi smiled and nodded, then looked at Chu Yunge at his side and said gently, "Xiao Ge, do you know how lively and grand the Martial Arts Competition, which is held only once a year in Kang City, is? Once the time came, all the heroes of the martial world would come to participate. Even those sects who live in seclusion and rarely travel in the martial arts world will give face to the Lord of Kang City, and come forth to observe. "
"Is that so? It's actually this grand? " Surprise flashed across Chu Yunge's eyes. She did not expect that the so called Martial Arts Competition would actually invite a group of heroes of the realm.
From this, it could be seen how much face and prestige City Lord Kang Cheng had. He could even invite these experts from the martial arts world.
"Of course. In the world, within the three nations, who doesn't know of the bustling and lively nature of Kang City?" There were even more people who wanted to live here peacefully. There were many chivalrous warriors in the Jianghu who wanted to live in the Kang City after they grew old, to protect themselves for the rest of their lives.
There were also those who were chased down by gangs due to personal grudges and came here to escape. Due to the great power of the Kang City, even if the Jianghu Sect wanted to seek revenge, they would not dare to easily raise their arms and step into the Kang City. Therefore, the people of the martial arts world should give the Patriarch of Kang City some face. "
Feng Yi patiently introduced him to Chu Yunge. As the crown prince of the Feng Lai Kingdom, he had read many books since young.
Hearing this, Chu Yunge's face already became somewhat ugly, "I … I had a grudge with the mayor's son, Gong Shaoyang, so wouldn't my visit this time be … "
Chu Yunge blushed with shame. What if Gong Shaoyang still held a grudge against her, gave her trouble at the Kang City, and wore small shoes, wouldn't he be busy then? Furthermore, the City Lord was about to appear, so she had to ask him for the map and the key … If Gong Shaoyang was to interfere, then the difficulty would be too great this time!
Thinking up to here, Chu Yunge only felt that her head suddenly hurt.
Feng Yi saw the worry in Chu Yunge's eyes and he carefully extended out his palm to grasp onto the small hand that was hanging by Chu Yunge's side. He squeezed her small hand into his own and comforted softly, "Xiao Ge, you don't have to worry. City Master Gong Yue is a magnanimous and forgiving person, he would not hold a grudge for small matters like all of you. "
"That's for the best." Chu Yunge bit hard on the peanuts in her mouth and said sullenly, "If the City Lord also remembers hatred, then this mission will be too difficult to complete."
"No. Don't worry. Everything has a husband. " Feng Yi comforted her again, coaxing his to the point of tightening his palms and pinching her small hands.
Although Shaoshang, who was sitting at the side, was still young, he could see the feelings between Feng Yi and Yue Yang.
Just like this, the carriage shakily moved forward on the public road, travelling day and night. Two days later, it had reached the level of Kang City which was rich and lively.
It was already past noon by the time they reached the Kang City. There was only one night until the Martial Arts Competition.
When they parted ways, the noble lady had insisted on giving Feng Yi and the others a thousand gold, as well as a Night Pearl of the Southern Ocean. However, they had all been tactfully rejected by Feng Yi.
As the participants of the Martial Arts Competition, Shaoshang and the others were assigned to live in the VIP tower by the hall master who was in charge of managing the event.
The VIP residence that the hall master had arranged for Shaoshang and his mother was the closest house to where the City Lord, Gong Yue, lived.
Due to Feng Yi and his unique identity and the fact that they had already been to Kang City before, the management of the Kang City naturally recognized Feng Yi and treated him cordially. Soon enough, they brought Feng Yi and the others into the residence of the City Lord, separating with Shaoshang and his mother.
Passing through the winding corridors and the beautiful fake mountain garden, passing through a few courtyards, Feng Yi and the others finally arrived at the main courtyard where Gong Yue was staying.
After entering the main hall of the courtyard, in the broad and bright main hall, Gong Yue sat on the golden silk Nan Mu Priestess' chair at the center of the hall. He was dressed in a dark blue robe with a simple dark blue belt.
Seeing Feng Yi enter the hall, Gong Yue, who was sitting on his teacher's chair, immediately stood up to greet him. "Your Highness, I have come with ill intentions.
"You flatter me. Yun Ge and I came here without warning." Feng Yi walked to Gong Yue in a very proper manner and took the initiative to pack his luggage.
"Crown Prince, if you say so, then you're looking for an outsider. Please come in." As he said that, he welcomed Feng Yi and in and arranged for them to sit.
Only then did Chu Yunge carefully look at Gong Yue's appearance. He had a square face, sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, and a deep face. He was indeed a handsome man, no wonder Gong Shaoyang was so ugly.
When Feng Yi met with Gong Yue, they could not help but exchange greetings. Chu Yunge was not good at this kind of situation, after greeting him, she no longer said anything.
When Feng Yi and Gong Yue finished their conversation and walked out of the hall, it was already sunset.
Under the guidance of the servant, Chu Yunge and Feng Yi arrived at the third floor of the guest building.
Before long, Gong Shaoyang had also appeared in front of Chu Yunge. His handsome face was filled with ridicule, and he said sarcastically to Chu Yunge who was having her dinner: "It's the Martial Arts Competition the day after tomorrow, and all the experts from all sorts of sects and clans will gather here. For the competition, it's best for you to not go up on stage with your tramp skills, in case someone breaks your arms and legs."
Chu Yunge put down the chopsticks in her hand, raised her head haughtily and said in a clear voice: "I am not afraid. Furthermore, I still have Feng Yi. "
"Hmph, don't tell me you are counting on Feng Yi to become the champion?" Gong Shaoyang snorted coldly, and said disdainfully, "I came here to tell you that the people from the Spirit Palace will also come tomorrow. The people from the Spirit Palace are all peerless beauties, at that time, I would be afraid that Feng Yi's soul would be taken away and he would lose without even fighting, hahaha!"
"Just laugh, be careful not to choke you to death. Aunt will not have the time to fool around with you. " Chu Yunge glared at him fiercely and continued to eat with her head lowered.
"You can eat, right? I don't have the time to bicker with you." I have to keep my strength at bay and keep my spirits up so that I can see beauties tomorrow. " With that, Gong Shaoyang raised his head and laughed as he left.
After Gong Shaoyang left, Feng Yi, who went to find Shaoshang and his mother to talk, returned. Seeing Chu Yunge's gloomy face, she asked.
Chu Yunge immediately changed her expression and laughed: "It's nothing, quickly eat, after eating I'm going to sleep. "Remember, don't touch them when you sleep tonight, or you will know the consequences!"
"Yes, yes, yes. Your husband knows the rules." Feng Yi nodded his head in a good mood, but in his heart he thought: But I wonder who would sleep half the night and climb onto my body on their own.
After dinner, due to the continuous journey, Chu Yunge had already gone to sleep.
Feng Yi carefully kept the map key before going to bed and turning off the lights.
Deep into the night to sleep, a peaceful and good dream …
