Just as the situation in the country of Qin was changing, the Empire of Yanzhou's Chess Sword Conference was also taking place. It was undeniable that the change that had occurred in the Qin Nation during the war had given Yan Guo a breather, allowing it to be at peace for a while. However, the Yan King also knew that times could not wait. Thus, he used the title of "Rejection of Qin" to hold a sword test, ordering all the heroes of the realm to rise up and reject it. The person who initiated this slogan was the Yan Kingdom's two dynasties' elder, Yan Xiang Ju Wu. From the destruction of the Republic of Korea and the State of Zhao, Ju Wu saw the terror of the Qin. He wanted to build a force strong enough to defend against the Qin army before the demonic palms of the Qin invaded the Kingdom of Yan. However, with the current strength of the State of Yan and its military, it was already far inferior to the State of Qin. Therefore, it was just a pipe dream to rely on the power of the imperial government to reject Qin.

Since the inauguration of the King of Qin, its tyranny had been rampant, causing the world to be filled with sufferers. Therefore, when Yan Guo stood up and raised his arm, all the ambitious people in the world responded, and hundreds of families gathered together.

The current Yan Ji was completely different from the past. Due to the gathering of so many experts, the city was already packed with practitioners from the martial arts world. Inns and inns lined the streets and alleys were crowded with people. The busiest place in the city was none other than the biggest winery in the city — Meng Xi winery. Since they were all in the martial arts world and not from the government, the venue for the competition was set. Firstly, there were people from the martial arts world who liked to drink together with each other, and secondly, there were people from the official officials.

"Heroes, I am Meng Xuanfeng, the owner of Meng Xi Wine House. Today, I have the honour to meet all of you heroes, and this is my fortune. Since all of you have come, this manor will definitely bring glory to your humble dwelling. The people of the martial arts world paid great attention to meeting friends with wine, and thus, I have no good gift to accompany you. I can only drink a cup of wine to thank all of you for coming here from afar. " When everyone had gathered at Meng Xi Wine House to sit down, the Manor Lord Meng Xuanfeng took the opportunity to head out. He gave a slight bow towards the martial arts world before pouring himself a cup of wine. This action of his was enough to cause everyone to sigh in admiration.

"Villa Owner Meng is being so courteous, making it hard for us to show our faces. If we do not show our gratitude today, how can we display the elegance of a martial artist?" At this moment, one of the old men stood up and returned the salute. He raised the wine cup on the table and downed it all in one gulp.

"Hehehe, Daoist Master Nanhua is a man of virtue and prestige. I am just a junior, how could I receive such a great gift from you? I truly do not dare to be worthy of your title." Meng Xuanfeng saw that the old man did not care about his identity, so he was flattered.

When everyone saw the old man's true appearance, they all stood up to greet him. "Sage Nanhua is indeed a virtuous and virtuous person. We apologize for our poor manners."

These famous martial artists, for Jing Ke who was a new disciple, had mostly never met him. However, after seeing that the crowd treated the old man with great respect, they secretly asked Di Kun, "Senior brother Di Kun, who is this old man? Why is everyone treating him with respect?"

After hearing this, Di Kun was afraid that he would lose his manners, so he quietly bent down and said in a low voice: "Taoist Master Nanhua is a person who is renowned among the hundreds of families. His status is not inferior to Master, but I heard Master mention it back then. Taoist Master Nanhua's real name is Zhuang Zhou, he is the ancestor of Taoism, and is unrivalled among the Three Sword Swords of Taoism. He was just unwilling to bow down and serve the powerful lords, and always retired from the martial arts world to become an unspecialized character.

"Oh? No one could defeat him? But what about compared to Master's Eight Movements of Ink Guard? " When Jing Ke heard that Nan Hua was highly praised, he purposely frowned and pretended to be suspicious as he made things difficult for him.

"This …" It was obvious that Di Kun had nothing to say, so he could only stammer, "I …" He had only heard of the rumors in the martial arts world, but Nanhua had never exchanged blows with his master. This … It's unknown who will win and who will lose. "

Looking at the embarrassed expression on Di Kun's face, Gong Zhuang Rong could not help but laugh in her heart, almost laughing out loud. However, Jing Ke pretended to be serious and said, "If that's the case, then no one can beat him. In my opinion, Master's eight moves, Mo Shou, are not inferior to him."

"Junior apprentice-brother Huanzi's words are reasonable. I was being reckless." After hearing that, Di Kun apologized.

Jing Ke originally wanted to tease his senior a little more, but then he heard from the crowd that there was someone who refused to accept this. "I was asking about the apathy of Taoist Master Nanhua and his inexperience in matters of the world, but who would have thought that you would step foot into this chess game today. You must also want to fight for a reputation, right?"

When one of the men in the crowd heard the man speak so rudely to the real person, he got up and went straight to the man, asking in a stern voice: "Which wild warrior would dare to be so disrespectful to the real person?!"

That person shot a glance at the strong man and said disdainfully, "Do you think a country bumpkin like you is worthy to fight against me?"

When the brawny man heard this, he immediately flew into a rage out of embarrassment and shouted, "How arrogant! Let's see if my eldest disciple, Shen Shang, can meet up with you for a while!" As the sturdy man finished speaking, he used a Mt. Tai to press down on the top of that person's head, the hammer in his hand striking towards that person's head.

That person was also calm and collected. He waited for Shen Bu to strike down, but instead of dodging, he moved. His name spread throughout the world as he shot out a couple of Mitsubishi Stings, flying straight to that strong man. The brawny man had also practiced some moves before, and when he saw the Mitsubishi Stinger shooting towards him, he dodged left and right, dodging right and knocking away the hidden weapons that were shooting at him.

When the brawny man saw that the man had used his concealed weapon, he roared in anger, "Scoundrel, you actually dare to use some sinister tricks!?" You shall kneel and beg for mercy if I don't beat you up! " With that, he turned the hammers into two gusts of wind and swept them across the waist of the madman.

Seeing that the situation was not looking good, the man flew straight up to the sky and shouted, "His name shakes the world!" As a result, a hundred and eighty cold beams of light flew out from the man's sleeves. It looked like they were going to shoot Shen Bu into a hornet's nest.

He knew that it was already too late for him to dodge, so he could only wave his hammers and use an iron wall to block the incoming hundred rays of cold light. However, with his current cultivation and skill, he was naturally not a match for the white light's evil aura. He estimated that he could only neutralize seventy to eighty percent of the evil aura, and the only thing left was to endure it with his body.

Just when Shen Bu was unable to defend against it, a flash of light suddenly appeared. A divine sword turned into ten thousand sword shadows that blocked Shen Bu's attack. The ten thousand sword shadows were like an invisible shield that blocked the ten thousand cold lights.

However, he was not in a hurry to show it off. Instead, he sneered coldly at Shen Nong, "Shen Nong, Shen Nong, you really can't do it. You can't beat me, yet you need to find a helper. It's a pity that your grandteacher didn't use any of his famous techniques, and didn't leave him any of his apprentices or grandsons."

"You …" Shen Bu saw how that person mocked her and immediately felt both embarrassed and annoyed. However, when he fought with that arrogant person just now, he had already revealed that his cultivation was inferior to his opponent's. Therefore, she was ashamed, angry, and helpless.

Shen Zi's technique is naturally an unparalleled technique that has never been seen before, but every move is straightforward and honest. Sir's techniques are sinister and sinister, and the techniques you use are all peerless skills of famous experts. At this time, a figure suddenly appeared from the side of Shen Bu. This person was dressed in a Daoist robe and had three godly swords on his back. This person was the Taoist ancestor Zhuang Zhou, the Nanhua Taoist that was revered by all in the martial arts world. If it were not for his help just now, perhaps Shen Nong's body would have been pierced through with hundreds of holes and he would not be able to recover from his injuries.

"It is indeed my teacher, junior's famous disciple Hui Li. Today, I have the good fortune of seeing your noble appearance, but in junior's opinion, that doesn't seem to be too far off." When Hui Li heard Zhuang Zhou's question, he only replied casually.

Eiko and I used to be old friends, but in the end we split up because of different aspirations, which is really a pity," Zhuang Zhou said as he shook his head slightly. "Back then, I toured Liang Guo, and Eiko came to Liang Guo because someone told me that my talents were far above them. When Eiko heard about it, she tried every means to stop me from seeing Liang Wang. So they went their separate ways. "I did not expect that Eiko would value fame and wealth over friendship, which really made me sad.

"Daoist Master, in this junior's opinion, you're not as indifferent to fame and fortune as the world's legend. I presume that you're even willing to travel a thousand miles to come to this Yan Ji Sword Conference to fight for this position?" Not listening to Zhuang Zhou finish his words, Hui Li interrupted him with a cold tone.

"This hero's words are wrong. Taoist Master Nanhua did not come for fame and fortune. Instead, I personally sent someone to invite him out as a witness for this year's gathering." Just as the heroes were enraged by Hui Li's words, a loud bell sound suddenly drifted out from the inner room of the restaurant. Just as the heroes were enraged by Hui Li's words, a loud bell sound suddenly floated out from the inner room of the restaurant.

He was clad in a long black robe and a red belt, and he had a square, pointed head and a dark purple crown with a double top. The orange band was tied to the side of his chin, giving him the air of a member of an official's family.

At this moment, Meng Xuanfeng, the owner of Meng Xi Wine House, saw this person suddenly appear and was stunned. He immediately bowed his head and cupped his fist, respectfully saying, "Servant Meng Xuanfeng greets the Prime Minister."

Everyone heard Meng Xuanfeng call that man the Minister of State, and judging from his clothes, they knew that he was the Minister of State of Yan. They immediately became terrified as they bowed and said, "We, the cultivators of the martial world, greet the Minister of State."

He then waved his hand and said slowly, "Hey, everyone, thank you for your praise. This prime minister has no means to govern Yan Country, and has not been able to protect the achievements of many generations of people in Yan Nation, to the point where today, facing the threat of a strong enemy, I have no good ideas. This prime minister has no face to face the ancestors, so he can only hold this chess event.

"Prime Minister Ju is too serious. He has been suffering for a long time and has always wanted to reject Qin. Now, he has just done a good deed. It is reasonable for all the heroes to respect him, so there is no need to be modest about it." When Nanhua heard his sincere words, she could not bear to see him act like this, so she went up to comfort him.

"Daoist Master is an otherworldly expert and has already gotten used to life as a crane in the wild, ignoring the matters of the martial arts world." Daoist Master is an otherworldly expert and has already gotten used to living as a crane in the wild and has ignored the affairs of the martial arts world. In the face of Zhuang Zhou's words of consolation, it was naturally impossible to express his gratitude.

"Sigh, this old man is ashamed. I originally wanted to live in a paradise, to pursue the realm of 'one with the world', but I ignored all the misfortunes of the world and didn't know the principle 'the world reigns in the hands of a man'. How can I face the world's heroes? Compared to the Mo family's Mo Zhai's' love but not attack 'righteous actions, this old one is truly ashamed. " After receiving such a high evaluation from Ju Wu, Zhuang Zhou felt guilty and sighed repeatedly.

"Yoh, I didn't think that this Nanhua fellow would know his place. His admiration for my ancestor is quite sincere, so he can be considered to have some ability to judge." When Jing Ke heard Zhuang Zhou's words, he turned to Di Kun, Gong Zhuang Rong, Gao Jianli and the rest and said softly.

Sage Nanhua's martial arts are unrivalled, and many people in the martial arts world admire him. He has long been famous in the martial arts world. It was not easy for him to degrade himself and respect the Mo family's fame. Gao Jianli also praised on the side.

Jing Ke originally wanted to say something, but he heard the long since unconvinced Hui Li say, "Junior only knows that in the world today, the best is the best, the victor is the king, as for loyalty and filial piety, it's nothing more than a joke for a person with an empty reputation. If there's really something good, then you can display it in front of all the heroes and convince them."

However, although his words of provocation caused dissatisfaction among the other disciples, it did not work on Zhuang Zhou. Zhuang Zhou only smiled indifferently and said, "This old one is already old, so I am naturally not a match for the younger generation, but this old one believes that the one who will stand out among the younger ones is not you, Young Hero Hui. Qi Cultivation was the most important thing for a famous expert in the world, and only those with a profound inner force skill could easily release them. This was originally the ultimate skill of a fellow warrior, but now his descendants did not meditate to train their inner force and instead thought up some crafty tricks to replace the release of inner force. "Because of my old friendship with your master, you originally wanted to call me uncle-master, but today I strongly advise you to practice martial arts with your feet on the ground and to not be too impulsive, and to be unorthodox."

"You … Zhuang Zhou, don't think that just because you're an elder you can rely on your seniority to act like one. After saying that, Hui Li took a big stride forward and used the famous move 'Three Seas'. He threw out a Mitsubishi Spike from his sleeve and rushed towards Zhuang Zhou.
