Cang Lan Lin, the Qing Clan, divided into two teams. One group was led by Qing Xiang, and the other was headed in another direction by a strong man from the Qing Clan.

In this competition, some of the hidden rules were observed by the Qing Clan.

As for the royal family, Ming Feng and the Third Prince were together.

However, the First Prince had separated from the Fourth Prince and was travelling alone. It was unknown if it was because he was confident or because he had other plans.

Of the other participants, the ones that participated the most were the three of them.

However, among these people, two of them were special. They were the two people among the crowd who were the closest to the end of Cang Lan Forest. Furthermore, the relationship between these two people was like that of a servant and a master. Most importantly, their clothing and attire were completely different from any of the people participating. The most obvious and also the most hidden point was that the insides of their belts had a faint imprint of a Haoyang, and within this Haoyang, the word "OK" was carved.

In just a short period of time, the four sides surged with activity. However, not a single team met with the other one, and there were no fights between the two sides.

Everything was moving in secret. Some of the teams were already preparing for an ambush, while some hurried on their journey from the trees, leaving behind their marks. After all, those who came to participate in the preliminaries were all people who had high hopes of participating in the Nine Kingdoms Competition.

"Sister Qing Xiang, do you feel like something is amiss?" Amongst the two people walking with Qing Xiang, a woman said in a low voice. Her senses seemed to be exceptionally acute.

"That's right, there are always three flies flying around." Qing Xiang said with a smile, she was not a flower vase, her normally warm tone, but towards her enemies, she also had the demeanor of a woman.

"Do you want to start with these three people?" the only man among the three asked, eager to give it a try.

"Qing Zhu, don't be impulsive. Wait for Shui Wu to sense some more, then make a decision." Qing Xiang was calm and didn't have any plans to attack.

"We were supposed to snatch the command medallion here, but if we don't now, do we give it up to someone else?" Qing Zhu could not help but twitch his mouth and say.

"They're gone." Just as Qing Zhu's voice fell, Qing Shui spoke out.

"Let's hurry on our way." Qing Xiang did not take it seriously, since there were very few people who dared to make a move, at least they had to try it out.

"Up ahead, that's it." Situ Yan had already reunited with the three once again, but this time, there was an additional unfamiliar face amongst the eight people.

"Let him go scout first." Situ Yan's beautiful face revealed a sinister look.

"Why aren't you going?" The man was pushed forward, he wanted to escape, but it seemed impossible, he could only open up a path for his comrades, but when he met someone from Situ Family, the result was obvious.

Whoosh, a brand-new arrow flew towards Qing Xiang and the other two from the darkness.

"Who?" Qing Xiang's nimble body, easily dodged the attack.

In front of her, a black shadow flashed past, and the trees rustled.

"The arrow is new. It was obviously made on the spur of the moment, and it's not sharp at all. This is a trap." Qing Xiang glanced at the flying arrow and instantly guessed what it was.

But she was still a little late. The more frivolous Qing Zhu, it was unknown when, had caught up to her.

"Sister Xiang, Qing Zhu has gone after him." She was also observing the flying arrows. After hearing Qing Xiang's words, she deduced, but she did not notice Qing Zhu's departure.

"Hurry up and follow, or there'll be trouble."

Qing Xiang was as meticulous as dust, and immediately thought of the three people who had arrived not long ago. They were probably here for her, and it was extremely likely that it was her …

"Sis, you're here. It's that Qing Zhu brat." Although Situ Family and the Qing Clan hated each other, they both knew each other, and had interacted with each other a few times before. As for the stronger disciples of the Qing Clan, Situ Rufeng naturally knew about them.

"Hmph. That slut should be coming soon." Situ Yan naturally knew that she wouldn't be able to deceive Qing Xiang, but fortunately, she was accompanied by the simple-minded Qing Zhu, so her plan would succeed.

"Who is it? Why aren't you coming out?" Qing Zhu was strong, in one go he had caught up with the black shadow.

With a bang, the sound of trees colliding with each other and the anxious Footsteps, Qing Zhu stopped abruptly. At this moment, he had also guessed that this was a trap.

As for that black shadow, Situ Rufeng walked in front of him and didn't say a word. He took out the token and kicked it away, as if killing someone was a part of his life. With such familiarity, the number of people who died at his hands would probably be no less than several hundred.

An enormous tree appeared out of nowhere and rushed towards Qing Zhu. After that, one arrow after another flew at Qing Zhu from all directions.

Qing Zhu's expression turned cold, he casually pulled out the Treasure behind him, a piece of gold-plated gold cast on the sword hilt with a bead embedded inside, releasing a weird light aura, with a light wave, the huge tree was split into two, Qing Zhu's footsteps changed, his figure quickly moved, the sword light was like a group of stars, flashing in all directions, the white light shot out, and the arrow shot out.

However, as the leaves approached his body, a slight piercing pain could be felt. Qing Zhu's face, had a few clear scratches, which were exceptionally obvious.

"He used fallen leaves to injure people, it can't be that Situ Yan …" Qing Zhu thought for a moment, then suddenly remembered the Situ Family. He couldn't help but hold onto the Treasure tightly, feeling a little nervous in his heart. One must know that it was usually impossible to find out after being killed here, and Situ Family and Qing Clan's relationship was originally not good.

"You're forcing me to use a flare?" Qing Zhu did not want to do this, this would embarrass the Qing Clan.

In the vicinity of Qing Zhu, within a hidden forest, Situ Yan was currently watching his every move.

She swept a hand across the ground, picked up a few leaves, and attacked again.

Boom, boom, boom …

A few consecutive explosions rang unceasingly, as though there was an even greater danger awaiting for Qing Zhu.

Qing Zhu immediately turned back, if he stayed any longer, he was afraid that he would die.

"Hmph, it's too late." In the distance, Situ Rufeng disdainfully smiled.

Just as his voice fell, many sharp Treasure s, swords, blades, spears, mace, etc. All sorts of Treasure s broke out from Qing Zhu's surroundings at the same time, from the big tree's trunk. And also at this time, Qing Zhu's feet stepped on a talisman.

"Why hasn't that boulder come out yet?" Situ Rufeng was a bit suspicious. All the other ambushes had appeared, but the huge boulder that had just appeared was nowhere to be seen.

"Qing Zhu, be careful."

Just as Situ Rufeng was puzzled, a melodious voice rapidly sounded from afar. Immediately after, a bright and beautiful figure floated in front of Qing Zhu. With a cold expression, she wielded a green sword in her hand, looking valiant and formidable, her chain of attacks was constantly blocked by Qing Zhu and herself.

"You still came." When Qing Xiang and Qing Zhu were using all their strength to block the attack, Situ Yan's face flashed, the dart in her hand moved like a shadow, borrowing the leaves to shoot towards Qing Zhu and Qing Xiang, but she just brushed past them in an instant.

Bang! Both of them flew back after receiving a palm strike from Situ Yan.

"Are you alright?" Qing Shui asked anxiously as he caught the two of them in the nick of time.

"Not bad." Qing Xiang wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth, looking angrily at the happy Situ Yan in front of him, her face ashen.

Shua, shua, seven people walked out from behind Situ Yan.

"Elder sister Xiang, I've implicated you." Qing Zhu immediately understood everything and could not help but feel anxious.

"Brat, it's too late to say anything now. Even if you were to release the illumination flares, I'm afraid it would be enough for you to leave this world."

Situ Yan looked at the helpless trio with a cold and resolute expression. She wanted to laugh out loud: "Qing Xiang, you will have your day too."

"Situ Yan, don't involve others in our matters."

"Then how did you get involved in the matter between me and Yun Hai?" Do you know that back then, it was you who entered our world?

Because they had never seen Situ Yan in such a state. Even though her status was not the highest, she was actually the daughter of the Great Elder of the Situ Family, and the Patriarch of the Situ Family, to this day, only had a little girl and a little girl. From this, one could imagine just how glorious her position was.

However, in the end, her reputation did not make sense, and she was still far inferior to Qing Xiang, the precious daughter of the Qing Clan.

"I …" When the past was brought up again, Qing Xiang was momentarily at a loss as to how to respond.

"What, regret?" Situ Yan looked at Qing Xiang's pitiful and delicate appearance, but she did not want to torture her mind at the moment.
