Chapter 126 - Rumors in the Sky
seven-nation test's Eve.
In all of Beiming Nation's capital's streets and alleys, there was a rumor circulating. It made all the men and women that were gathered in the capital envious, even to the point of holding their faces and sighing. Why not me? If only I were you!
Why?
Why did such a rumor suddenly spread on the eve of seven-nation test?
Because this news involved Crown Prince of Beiming Nation Yun Mojin, as well as the Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom!
It was unknown who spread the news that after the seven-nation test, the two of them would set up a marriage! The two of them could be said to be a perfect match made in heaven. Furthermore, they were all people who had Transcended in power!
So when the news came out, the streets and alleys all started to boil and the discussions of every single person started to revolve around the two of them.
"Have you heard? The Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom is right in front of the Imperial Palace.
"Of course I heard about it. It seems that after the seven-nation test ends, they will truly announce this matter. This is a major event that involves both countries!"
"There have been countless people who have said that the only people worthy of the crown prince are the Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom, and the only people qualified to marry the crown prince are the crown prince!"
"Ugh …" Someone looked around, as if he wanted to see if there were any People of the Kingdom of Zi Yue s around him. After confirming that there were no People of the Kingdom of Zi Yue s, he gathered up his courage and continued: "Then, do you know of Xiao Qianhan? I heard that when the crown prince went to the Kingdom of Zi Yue, he took this woman in as his concubine.
"Of course I've heard of it. Yesterday, there were a lot of people who talked about Xiao Qianhan, heard that she went through a great calamity before and that she wouldn't participate in the seven-nation test. But, if I really do not have the face to participate in seven-nation test's tournament, Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom will also participate.
She is from the Kingdom of Zi Yue, and serving the crown prince can already be considered as an act of kindness from her ancestors. If I were her, I would have knelt down and admitted defeat first, so as to not lose all my face when I get the chance. "
"You all should have not seen her face the Grade Nine Spirit Beast's appearance with her perfect palmProfound Realm. She has guts, and is not afraid of death, so I have rarely seen anyone like her, able to face her enemies calmly. Even when her life was at stake, she did not even blink, which is truly admirable!"
"From the looks of it, she should be a woman with extraordinary courage. There must be a reason why the crown prince has taken a fancy to her, but it is just that there is no way to compare with her and the Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom! For example, Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom can become the princess consort in the future, and she has already been abandoned by the crown prince. "
The group of people were discussing amongst themselves with their saliva flying everywhere. Moreover, they had no intention of stopping at all.
Not far away, Xiao Qianhan stopped Ning Siqi who was about to rush into her theory.
"They simply don't know anything and they're slandering you! Qianhan, let me go, I'll argue with them. " Ning Siqi gnashed her teeth in anger. If Xiao Qianhan did not hold her back, she would have rushed over to reason with the group of people who did not know anything.
Xiao Qianhan's expression was extremely calm, without a trace of anger. From the time she came out until now, there had been people discussing her everywhere, and later on she was curious, wanting to hear what other excuses they would come up with, "There's no need, there's no need to discuss, maybe Crown Prince of Beiming Nation and Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom really have an engagement?"
"Eh? That won't happen, Crown Prince of Beiming Nation won't abandon you. " Ning Siqi was stunned for a moment, but subconsciously shook her head without thinking.
"I am not related to the Crown Prince of Beiming Nation in the first place." Xiao Qianhan's eyes flickered, and only responded after a slight pause.
This time, Ning Siqi was not as unconvinced as before. Instead, when she saw that Xiao Qianhan's expression did not seem to be fake, she could not help but say in astonishment, "Crown Prince of Beiming Nation clearly protected you that way, could it be that I have truly misunderstood you? But even if you don't have any relationship with the Crown Prince of Beiming Nation, they shouldn't belittle you with their extremely despicable words just to flatter the Grand Princess of the Western Lantern Kingdom! "
"Their mouths grow on others. If they like it, then let them freely discuss it." Xiao Qianhan replied with a light smile. She had never minded their discussions, whether it was in the modern or ancient times, the human nature of humans of any era was like this. If everyone had their own thoughts, she would have been angered to death by now.
Ning Siqi pouted, she turned and looked at the group of people who were still discussing, and finally gritted her teeth and said: That's right, let them talk! When the time comes, they will definitely be slapped in the face! "
Xiao Qianhan smiled and did not reply. Looking in front of him, her eyes flickered with determination. No matter what, she had to enter the Infernal Forest!
Not long after the two of them left, in a private room on the second floor of a teahouse, a noble woman withdrew her gaze.
At the same time, Xiao Qianhan suddenly stopped in her tracks. She turned around and looked at the second floor of the teahouse.
"Thousand Cold? "What's wrong?" Ning Siqi asked.
Xiao Qianhan retracted her gaze, and laughed lightly while shaking her head, "It's nothing, let's go."
"I must go to bed early tonight and rest up for tomorrow's battle! My goal is to be able to enter the second round tomorrow, and as for the third round, I don't even dare to think about it, but Qian Han, I believe that you will definitely be able to enter the top thirty! " Ning Siqi was filled with confidence in Xiao Qianhan.
"Is there anything in Infernal Forest that you want?" Xiao Qianhan asked.
Ning Siqi shook her head, "No, when I came here, I already knew that it was impossible for me to enter the top thirty.
Xiao Qianhan could not help but laugh: "It's probably a good thing that I did not want."
"Qianhan, everyone says that there are countless dangers hidden in the Infernal Forest. When that time comes, you must be careful, especially about the people around you. In the end, in order to snatch something from your hands, who knows what those people might do."
"Mm. Alright."
The night was hazy.
After Qian Zi agreed to go for a walk, Qian Zi ran out in a mysterious manner and after about an hour, she returned.
After entering the Thousand Cauldron Seal, he laid down on her bed with Xiao Miao in his arms. He could not help but chuckle softly, but he was afraid of disturbing Xiao Qianhan who was currently focused in cultivation.
Xiao Qianhan had long since heard her voice, and she slowly opened her eyes to look at Qian Zi. She saw through her thoughts with a glance, but she did not try to find out what she was thinking, "Did you see something happy?"
"Hehe, it is something that will allow me to laugh for three days and three nights! Hahahaha! However, Master, you will know about it tomorrow. This is a surprise that I have given Master. " Qian Zi said mysteriously.
If he said it was a secret, then it couldn't be leaked!
But it felt so good just thinking about it, hahahaha!
It had been ignoring Qian Zi all along, no matter how unpleasant the laughter was, it had been completely ignored. But now, with a pinch, it almost suffocated as it escaped from Qian Zi's devilish palm, jumping onto Xiao Qianhan's thigh like a bolt of lightning. Then, it found a comfortable spot to continue sleeping.
Xiao Qianhan touched Xiao Miao, and its silvery-white fur became smoother and brighter. It seemed that its injuries had healed by a lot.
Qian Zi excitedly rampaged through the Thousand Cauldron Seal. This was the first time in over a thousand years that she had left the Thousand Cauldron Seal … Doing bad things! It felt so good! As long as she thought of the results she could see tomorrow, she really couldn't sit still. She really wanted to see the results!
"It can't be like the stench of National Examination, right?" Xiao Qianhan swept her eyes across Qian Zi and asked.
Qian Zi blinked her eyes and arrogantly raised her head, "Hehe, I won't! "Rest assured master, I won't be stinky. I won't use the same method a second time!"
Xiao Qianhan was slightly relieved, as long as it was not the stench that filled the sky. Last time at National Examination, she really couldn't stand that smell. When she saw Xiao Miao, who was already sleeping soundly once again, she closed her eyes and laid on the side with her eyes closed. Qian Zi had also gone to her bed, but after tossing and turning, she just could not fall asleep at all. Those poison pills were all concocted by her after she came back to her previous master, who was too proud and aloof, simply did not want to come into contact with too many people, thus she rarely saw anyone who disliked using those poison pills, and even more so, she was just a little too excited!
This time, it was definitely fiercer than the times that Xiao Yuluo and the others had gotten their hands on them!
However, after going through it again and again, he still could not think of what was wrong with it. Suddenly, he remembered that his master was not curious as to who she had used the poison pellets on, could it be that his master had already guessed it?
That's impossible, she still hasn't revealed anything. How could her master have guessed who she used the poison pill on? Also, why isn't Master curious at all! He might have guessed who the person she was going to teach a lesson to was, but he shouldn't be able to guess what poison pill she used, right?
Qian Zi turned over and over again, but she just couldn't fall asleep. She was initially pleasantly surprised to find that she had actually been guessed by her master.
Ah
The next day.
's competition grounds.
In the huge competition grounds, early in the morning, there were already many people gathered. Many of them were here to watch the competition, and the triennialized seven-nation test, it could be imagined how exciting it was, how unexpected, how intense it was, the battles between various experts. Just thinking about it made one feel excited, and even their blood boiled with excitement.
Adding on to the fact that this year's seven-nation test's participants were discussed by many people, they wanted to see the true colors of these people who were being discussed.
Warriors from various countries had also arrived early.
