Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Declaration of War

Chapter 329: Chapter 329: Declaration of WarThe next day, early in the morning.

In Yingmei Pavilion, on a spacious and luxurious brocade couch, Fuxiang, who was sleeping soundly, uttered a sweet and lazy moan.

Her thick and curled eyelashes trembled, and when she opened her eyes, the first thing that appeared in her sight was Xu Qiyan's high nose and handsome profile.

He had already woken up, quietly looking at the roof.

"Good morning, Xu Lang."

Fuxiang stretched out her arms from the quilt, hooked Xu Qiyan's neck, and at the same time pressed down his hands that were kneading his chest.

"What's so early? I should say in the morning: You were great last night!" Xu Qi'an yawned and asked, "What time is it?"

"Hate it, I can't say it."

Fuxiang also yawned, rubbed her cheek against Xu Qi'an's face, and said coquettishly, "The water is leaking at the foot of the bed, Xu Lang can see it himself."

Xu Qi'an threw his upper body out of the bed and looked at the foot of the bed. The next moment, he jumped up from the bed: "It's already Chenshi, you annoying little goblin, I have to go to the government office immediately, otherwise I won't get my monthly salary for the second half of the year."

Fuxiang supported her head on her arm and smiled foolishly, "Yesterday it was Xu Lang who was annoying others, and he blamed me, ugh."

Xu Qi'an left Yingmei Pavilion and went to the stable to take his mare away. As expected, Erlang's horse was gone, which meant that he had left the Jiaofangsi.

He rode the mare back to Xu's house. He looked around along the way and never saw anyone selling green oranges.

"Zhong Li seems to be still in the Si Tian Jian. I should go pick her up." Xu Qi'an muttered and turned to run in the direction of the Si Tian Jian.

"Za Za Za....."

Xu Qi'an pulled down the gate valve, and the stone door leading to the underground of the Si Tian Jian opened. He shouted at the top of his voice: "Zhong Li, I'm here to pick you up."

The voice echoed in the empty underground.

After a while, footsteps came from the stairs leading straight to the underground. The oil lamp burned, and the fire-colored halo reflected the outline of a figure, which gradually became clear.

Zhong Li, with disheveled hair, climbed the stairs. A crisp voice came from her hair, with a bit of excitement: "You are here."

"Let's go, follow me home." Xu Qi'an turned around and wanted to leave.

Zhong Li turned around and shouted to the dark underground: "Senior Brother Yang, reflect on your mistakes behind closed doors and don't make the teacher angry again."

After that, she pulled down the handle and closed the stone door.

Xu Qian'an walked out, curiously asking: "Did Senior Brother Yang do anything wrong?" Zhong Li looked at him and whispered: "Senior Brother Yang went to the Meridian Gate yesterday, blocked the way of the civil and military officials, and read your poem.

"The gentlemen and His Majesty were furious, and sent people to condemn the teacher and severely punish Senior Brother Yang. The teacher hung Senior Brother Yang up and whipped him, and then imprisoned him underground to reflect on his mistakes for ten days. The gentlemen and His Majesty gave up."

.......Xu Qian'an was stunned, his face dull, and he couldn't believe that someone would do this to show off.

Yang Qianhuan was hung up and whipped by the Supervisor? I didn't watch at the time, what a pity! ... I drank some wine last night. You may not know that my aunt and sister don't like me drinking..."

"Oh." Zhong Li nodded and said obediently: "The method to cover up the smell of powder is very simple. Wait a minute, I will find incense for you."

This is a bit embarrassing... Xu Qi'an's mouth twitched.

Back at the Xu Mansion, he saw Lina and Su Su playing chess at the stone table in the courtyard, and Xu Lingyin was doing horse stance not far away.

"Big pot..."

The little bean came up pretending to be very happy and took the opportunity to take a lazy rest.

Lina was obviously an incompetent master. She stared at the expectation with full concentration, and her beautiful face was full of seriousness and thinking.

This is strange... It feels like seeing two poor students discussing calculus... Xu Qi'an walked over curiously and took a closer look.

It turned out that the two were playing Gobang!

Let's go...

Because Zhong Li had been reminded on the way, the fifth sister of the Sitianjian didn't feel strange when she saw a ghost sitting in the yard playing chess, but just looked at it repeatedly.

"This is a ghost, very rare. "She whispered.

I know that the characteristic of a charmer is her beauty. She likes to seduce passers-by in the deep mountains and old forests, and then drain their energy. Well, this energy is a serious energy......Xu Qian'an nodded, indicating that he knew it in his heart.

Seeing this, Zhong Li said no more.

Later, Xu Qian'an found that Li Miaozhen was missing, and was shocked. He ran to the yard and asked Su Su: "Where is your master?"

Su Su did not raise her head, staring at the chessboard intently, and replied in a delicate voice: "He went to Lingbao Temple. "

Outside the gate of the imperial city, Li Miaozhen, who was wearing a Taoist robe, was stopped by the Tiger Guards.

She turned around and walked back for a while without any hurry or anger, and then patted her back, and with a "clang" sound, the flying sword came out of its sheath. Seeing this, the Tiger Guards not far away thought that she was going to force her way into the imperial city, and they were horrified and drew their weapons.

Li Miaozhen gracefully jumped onto the sword ridge, and the flying sword took her up and froze at a height of twenty feet. At this height, the Lingbao Temple in the distance could

already be seen.

The Tiger Guards on the top of the city pulled the bowstring, turned the bed crossbow and artillery, and aimed at Li Miaozhen. As long as the superior gave an order, thousands of arrows would be fired immediately.

The thousand households of the Tiger Guards did not order an attack. He squinted his eyes and looked at Li Miaozhen, and an idea suddenly flashed in his mind.

A Taoist robe, a woman, wants to enter the imperial city... Is it Li Miaozhen, the saint of the Tianzong? One of the protagonists of the battle between heaven and man?

However, if Li Miaozhen insisted on flying the sword into the imperial city, what awaited her would be the counterattack of the imperial guards and night watchmen.

Li Miaozhen knew that she was targeted, but it was not a big problem. She had no intention of forcing her way into the imperial city.

Staring at Lingbao Temple in the distance, she was full of energy and said in a clear voice: "Li Miaozhen, a disciple of Tianzong, came here on the orders of her master to discuss the Dao

with the disciples of Renzong.

"The time and address will be determined by Renzong."

The voice was very penetrating, not deafening, but it was heard far away, and it was clearly audible inside and outside the imperial city.

At this moment, the dignitaries, clan members, and government officials living in the imperial city all heard Li Miaozhen's "declaration of war".

Outside the imperial city, the residents of the inner city next to the red city wall were also startled by the sound. Pedestrians stopped, stall owners stopped shouting, and turned their

heads to look in the direction of the imperial city.

Lin'an Prefecture.

Lin'an, who was wearing a red layered palace dress and playing embroidery with the palace

maids, suddenly stopped, listened attentively, and asked:

"Did you hear any sound?"

Several palace maids tilted their heads and looked quietly towards the direction of the

imperial city.

"I heard it, it seems to be Li Miaozhen, a disciple of the Tianzong..." The palace maid who was slapped on the butt by Xu Qi'an responded.

As soon as the voice fell, a cold and pleasant voice came from the opposite direction: "Three

days later, at 3:00 in the morning, on the banks of the Wei River outside the capital, Chu Yuanzhen, a registered disciple of the Renzong, will go to battle."

Bia Bia opened her mouth slightly, and the interesting stories Xu Qi'an told her emerged in her mind, one of which was the struggle between heaven and man!

"Three days later, I want to see it, and I want my dog slave to take me to see it." Bia Bia's

heart was burning, and she wanted to ask the guards to summon her dog slave immediately.

Huai Wang Mansion

In the back garden full of flowers, a woman in a lotus-colored long skirt stood among the flowers, looking towards the city gate, and whispered: "Three days later, at 3:30 in the morning, on the bank of the Wei River in the suburbs of Beijing..."

Her eyebrows curved, and she said happily: "There is another good show to watch."

There was no wind, but the flowers in the yard swayed gently, as if responding to her.

Li Miaozhen came to the capital, and dueled with Chu Yuanzhen, a disciple of the Ren Sect, on the bank of the Wei River three days later.

The news spread like wildfire, and in just half a day, it almost spread throughout the capital.

The first to boil were those people in the rivers and lakes who heard the news and came to the capital early. They waited for a whole month and finally waited for the battle between heaven and man.

Waiting for the duel between the most outstanding disciples of the Taoist Ren Sect and the

Tian Sect.

Although many people faced the embarrassment of running out of money, no one complained, and even felt that coming to the capital in advance was an extremely correct and

fortunate decision.

Because before the battle between heaven and man, they witnessed a rare battle that was rare

in a century.

This can be fully proved by the regretful attitude of the Jianghu knights who missed the fight

because they came late.

Even if there is no subsequent battle between heaven and man, for most Jianghu people, it is

worth the trip.

In a certain restaurant, the Soul-Enchanting Hand Rongrong and the beautiful woman, as

well as Mr. Liu and Mr. Liu's master, the four of them found an empty seat by the window and

talked about the battle between heaven and man while having lunch.

The two protagonists naturally became the focus.

Rongrong poured wine for the beautiful woman, but turned her head to look at the middle-

aged swordsman and said crisply: "I heard from the senior that this Chu Yuanzhen seems to be the top scholar in the 27th year of Yuanjing?"

The middle-aged swordsman heard this and sighed, "Yes, I was traveling in the capital at that time, and it happened to be the period of the Xingbang. I saw him become the champion, and

then the top scholar...

"I didn't expect that he had resigned from his official position and became a registered disciple of the Renzong. Even today, he represented the Renzong in the battle." "Master, I heard that Li Miaozhen is a fairy with a national beauty and a heavenly fragrance.

What rank do you think she is in the Taoist sect?"

When Master Liu said this, his attention was all on the four words "national beauty and a heavenly fragrance".

In response to his apprentice's question, the middle-aged swordsman shook his head, "The Saint of Tianzong hardly walks around in the world, and her reputation is not well-known. I

don't know what rank she is.

"However, there is a rumor in the world that the Feiyan female hero who appeared two years ago is the Saint of Tianzong.' seaʀᴄh thё Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"The Feiyan female hero is the Saint of Tianzong?" Rongrong was surprised.

She had heard a little about the name of the Feiyan female hero. This woman robbed the rich

to help the poor, and was chivalrous and righteous. She was either doing good deeds or on the way to doing good deeds.

Her deeds were praised and praised by the wandering knights in the world. However, a year ago, she suddenly disappeared from the world, and no one knew where she

went.

The middle-aged swordsman laughed and said, "These are all rumors in the martial arts world. I don't know whether they are true or not. But the female hero Feiyan disappeared a year ago and no one knows where she went."

At this time, a martial artist in a blue robe at the next table interrupted and said sarcastically,

"You are ignorant, right? The female hero Feiyan went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits and disappeared for a year."

Went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits?

Before the middle-aged swordsman could ask, the martial artists around him looked over. "How do you know that Lady Feiyan went to Yunzhou to suppress bandits?"

"Not only do I know that Lady Feiyan went to Yunzhou, I also know that she is the Saint of Tianzong, Li Miaozhen." The blue-robed Jianghu took a sip of wine and talked freely:

"I have a brother from Qingzhou who suddenly returned home at the beginning of the year.

He said that he was in Yunzhou this year, and followed Lady Feiyan to suppress bandits everywhere, and his cultivation level increased greatly. It was also he who told me that Lady

Feiyan is the Saint of Tianzong."

The middle-aged swordsman's eyes flickered, and he was full of doubts about the words of

the blue-robed man, and asked: "Since you were suppressing bandits in Yunzhou, why did you suddenly return home?"

The blue-robed Jianghu sneered: "Of course the suppression of bandits is over. At the end of

last year, the court sent two golden gongs and a group of silver gongs to Yunzhou to uproot the mountain bandits in Yunzhou.

"Xu Yinluo from the night watchman's office was among them at the time. It is said that he almost died once?"

Immediately, a Jianghu who knew the situation spoke up and said, "Not almost, but really died once. "

"Nonsense, can you be resurrected after death?"

"Hey, I can tell from one glance that you poor guys can't afford to go to the Jiaofangsi. Xu

Yinluo is a frequent visitor to the Jiaofangsi. Just ask the girls in any courtyard and you can find out a lot about Xu Yinluo." The insider said:

"It is said that at that time, the governor of Yunzhou led his troops in rebellion, and tens of

thousands of soldiers besieged the governor and his entourage. Just when everyone was in despair, it was Xu Yinluo who stopped tens of thousands of rebels with his sword, just like he stopped the civil and military officials a few days ago.

"The killing was so fierce that the sky was dark and the sun and moon were dim, and finally he

died of exhaustion. But it also delayed the arrival of reinforcements and reversed the situation."

There was an uproar in the hall, and both the people of the world and the ordinary people were stunned. "One person can stop tens of thousands of people. Is there really such a master in the world?"

"I think it's possible. Didn't you see the fight? Xu Yinluo is a genius. Even the Buddhist arhats are willing to admit defeat."

"But why did I hear that the supervisor was helping him?"

"Shut up. It was Xu Yinluo who defeated Buddhism on his own. What does the supervisor have

to do with it? I don't allow you to slander the hero of Dafeng."

......

Lingbao Temple, a quiet courtyard.

Emperor Yuan Jing stood with his hands behind his back, standing by the pool, staring at the

beautiful Taoist nun who was sitting cross-legged in the air above the pool with her eyes

closed.

"Alas, Imperial Master, after this battle, in as little as three months or as long as a year, the Taoist leader of Tianzong will enter the capital. By then, the Imperial Master will be in danger." Emperor Yuan Jing sighed: "The supervisor will most likely not intervene in this matter." If the supervisor can protect him, plus Luo Yuheng's own strength, it will be more than

enough to deal with a Taoist leader of Tianzong.

Of course, Emperor Yuan Jing knew that this was a luxury. First-class masters would hardly

fight without special reasons. Moreover, Jianzheng was indifferent to Renzong, and it was

unlikely that he would fight against Tianzong Dao Shou.

"If the national teacher cannot enter the first rank, even if Chu Yuanzhen wins, it will not

mean much." Emperor Yuan Jing shook his head.

There is a rule between the Tianren Sect and the Renzong Sect that before the Dao Shou fights,

the disciples of the two sects will compete with each other. The loser must give the other

party three moves when the real Tianren fights.

But Luo Yuheng is only a second-class master, and the gap with Tianzong Dao Shou is too big.

Even if Chu Yuanzhen wins, she has the advantage of three moves, but she will still lose in the

end.

"Is there any way to postpone this Tianren fight?" Emperor Yuan Jing asked.

He did not say to stop it, because it was unrealistic. Even if he was the emperor, he could not

influence the Daotong fight between a second-class and a first-class master.

Luo Yuheng opened his eyes, his mind flashed, and he said lightly: "It's OK if we can't tell the

winner."

It's OK... Emperor Yuan Jing chewed on this sentence, and said helplessly: "Unless Li

Miaozhen agrees."

Luo Yuheng pondered for a moment, and said: "There is a simpler way......"

Xu Mansion.

Xu Dalang, who was teasing the little bean in the yard, suddenly heard a shrill cat cry. He

turned his head and saw a orange cat squatting on the wall.

"Lingyin, go and play with your master first, big brother has something to do." Xu Qi'an

touched his sister's head.

"Okay, I want to eat the dishes of Guiyue Tower in the big pot tonight." Xu Lingyin held her

big brother's finger.

"Okay, I'll go out and buy it for you later, hurry up." Xu Qi'an poked her forehead with his

finger.

Xu Lingyin ran away happily, jumping up and down.

The orange cat jumped into the yard, walked gracefully, came to him, and spoke in human

language: "Li Miaozhen has issued a challenge."

Xu Qian'an nodded: "I know."

The orange cat showed a human smile and said: "I need your help with something."

Xu Qian'an did not answer, but looked at him silently.

The man and the cat looked at each other for a long time, and Xu Qian'an whispered: "Master,

are you trying to trick me again?"

The orange cat shook his head, "Master Xu, when have I ever tricked you?"

This... Xu Qian'an sighed: "You come to me at this critical moment, I have a bad feeling."
