"Kill directly?"

Yun Qingshang received training as a killer, and she was not used to facing the enemy directly.

Even if she has the upper hand in strength, she will try to be the first to kill and never talk nonsense.

Baiyun City is more powerful than An Shirong, and it is not easy to kill Baiyun City.

Although Yun Qingshang's power has skyrocketed, he has a clear understanding of his own power. She is still far away from being a level 10 swordsman.

Coupled with the Crimson Heart, it is barely capable of fighting.

The problem is that Baiyun City's tenth-level swordsman, a master of the Black Dragon Society, should also have rare items on his body.

Yun Qingshang didn't know Baiyun City well, so she felt that directly killing him was the worst way.

Gao Xuan said: "It doesn't have to be complicated to kill Baiyuncheng. He is a swordsman."

Yun Qingshang said with some worry: "There are also many comrades in Baiyun City. How to deal with them?"

"It's not that complicated."

Gao Xuan said confidently: "Just look at me."

Jinlong Pavilion is located on Tianan Street in the eastern section of the Fourth Ring District.

This quaint pedestrian street is filled with time-honored brands that have been open for hundreds of years and is full of traditional Chinese characteristics.

Golden Dragon Pavilion is famous for its luxury and can be said to be one of the most luxurious hotels in Tianjing City.

The style of Jinlong Pavilion is also magnificent, like a royal palace.

The overall style of Tianan Street is relatively simple, and the Golden Dragon Pavilion is the most eye-catching presence in the center of Tianan Street.

At dusk, hundreds of sky lanterns float around the Golden Dragon Pavilion.

In front of the main entrance, there are eight pairs of red lanterns, accompanied by a vermilion door and a red carpet, the color is extremely bright.

The lobby manager led a group of beauties in palace attire and stood at the gate, waiting respectfully.

He saw Fang Zhenlin and Fang Zhenhai brothers approaching from a distance, and he hurriedly bowed his back to greet them.

"Hello, Mr. Fang."

The lobby manager didn't dare to call him random names. Now that the Fang brothers were fighting over the family property, he vaguely called Mr. Fang.

There is another one standing among the Fang brothers. He has a slender figure, an ancient face, thin eyebrows and eyes, and a thick mustache. Wearing a long black coat, he also held an ancient-colored sheathed sword in his hand.

This man's eyebrows were full of pride, his chin was held high, and he looked at others with a condescending attitude.

However, this man was full of vigor, and the lobby manager felt guilty after just one look at him. Needless to say, this is Baiyuncheng, the third swordsman of Dongzhou.

The lobby manager bowed deeply: "It is really our honor to have Mr. Bai come to our store. Mr. Bai, please come inside..."

The lobby manager bowed his waist and led the way. When they arrived at the gate, a group of beauties in palace costumes said hello in unison.

Baiyun City didn't even look at it, and went straight to the Jiuwu Pavilion.

Jiuwu Supreme, Jiuwu Pavilion is also the largest and most expensive independent courtyard of Jinlong Pavilion.

The Jiuwu Pavilion is also magnificently decorated, with white jade floors and mahogany columns covered with golden dragons. There are more than twenty independent tables on both sides. The main position is placed in the middle.

There is a large open space in the middle of the banquet, which is usually used for singing and dancing performances. There is also a golden dragon scabbard sword on one side of the wall.

This gleaming golden sword is said to be an imitation of the ancient emperor's sword and is worth tens of millions.

There are various auspicious animals and auspicious clouds on the four walls, creating a magnificent scene.

The entire layout is completely based on the ancient palace.

Of course, although modern people pay attention to ostentation, few people will sit in the main seat. Even if everyone has different identities, there is no reason for a group of people to support one master.

Baiyuncheng didn't care about this, he sat on the main seat as his duty.

The Fang brothers were not surprised. After spending the past two days together, they had already figured out this man's temper.

Baiyuncheng has a particularly bad temper, is extremely picky, and is also arrogant. If someone is unhappy, he will scold him at will.

Together with Baiyun City, the two brothers lived like a year.

If it weren't for Baiyun City's success or failure, the two brothers really wouldn't want to serve this man.

Baiyuncheng sat down at the main seat and asked the Fang brothers to greet the guests.

The Fang brothers were very reluctant. It was too dangerous to stand at the door to welcome guests. If someone shoots someone illegally, he or she will die.

However, it was not their turn to object in front of Baiyun City.

The Fang brothers could only stand obediently at the gate and greet the guests.

Baiyun City was very arrogant and sent invitations to many dignitaries in Mingjing City.

Including the Xu family, Jiang family, and even sent invitations to Wei Yue.

All these companies responded and said they would definitely attend the dinner.

The Fang brothers have been hanging out in Mingjing City for so many years. No matter how popular they are, at least they are familiar with each other.

No matter who comes, they can greet each other warmly and chat for a while.

Fang Zheng of Xi Sword Studio, Bai Yutang of Zhengqi Hall, Xu Shan, Minister of Law Enforcement Department, Deputy Minister of Response Department, Jiang Haoran and Jiang Xuejun of Dajiang Group, Qingyu Qianhe and Qingyu Feiniao of Yangui Sword Hall, and Jiang, the head kendo coach of Mingjing University. Yuan wait...

Dignitaries from all walks of life gathered together, and the scene was quite lively.

Wei Yue came with Xu Yin, and with her was Wei Ming.

The Fang brothers were a little surprised when they saw Wei Yue appear.

Wei Yue promised to come, but there was no need for her to attend the banquet in person.

After all, this is a banquet hosted by Baiyun City, who knows if it will turn into a Hongmen Banquet.

China has a long tradition in this regard.

Not only the Fang brothers were surprised, but other guests were also a little surprised to see Wei Yue enter the venue.

On the other hand, everyone couldn't help but admire Wei Yue's courage. As expected of a woman who dared to kill An Shirong, she was really tough.

The face of the law enforcement minister was not very good. Because of An Shirong's incident, he was under tremendous pressure. He almost lost his official position.

However, Wei Yue did it neatly. He has no evidence. The Wei family was also very powerful, and no matter how resentful he was, he would not dare to cause trouble for Wei Yue.

Some people think Wei Yue is courageous and resourceful and admire her quite a lot.

For example, for a neutral faction like Fang Zheng, An Shirong is domineering, but few people will like An Shirong.

An Shirong was killed and the An family was torn apart, which was great news for other big families in Mingjing City.

Everyone felt relieved. Even the allies of the An family did not like such a strong alliance leader as An Shirong.

Therefore, many people expressed goodwill towards Wei Yue.

Sitting in the main seat, Baiyun City looked at Wei Yue with interest. She was indeed a very elegant beauty. It looks much better in person than on the screen.

Baiyuncheng doesn't like women, he just makes objective evaluations.

He is arrogant, but he will not underestimate a woman who dares to assassinate An Shirong.

"This is Mr. Wei, he is even more famous when we meet him. Nice to meet you."

Baiyuncheng pointed to the position below his left hand: "There is a seat here for Mr. Wei, please sit down."

Although Baiyun City valued Wei Yue, they did not stand up to greet him. With Wei Yue's rank, it's not worth it for him to get up.

Wei Yue didn't care either. She had already investigated Baiyun City and knew that this person was arrogant and crazy.

She didn't want to talk to Baiyuncheng anymore, nodded slightly, and took Xu Yin and Wei Ming to sit down.

Baiyun City saw that the time was up and everyone had arrived. He stood up and raised his glass and said to everyone: "I came to Mingjing City twenty years ago and met some of my friends here. I feel quite emotional when I return to the old place twenty years later and see my old friends again. With this glass, I Dear old friends and new friends.”

Although Baiyun City is arrogant, as the top swordsman in Dongzhou, he has a strong aura.

Everyone, whether they are friends or foes, must raise their glasses.

Baiyuncheng put down his wine glass and smiled proudly: "Today we only talk about romance, not grudges. If anything happens, we'll talk about it tomorrow."

He raised his glass again and said, "Dry."

After Baiyuncheng drank it all, he filled up the wine again and raised his glass and said: "For the third glass, I respect Mr. Wei Ming. He was also a famous ice swordsman back then, but he was willing to be lonely and couldn't hide. It's just this forbearance, It’s worthy of admiration.”

Wei Ming smiled bitterly and raised his glass, "I admire Mr. Bai's sharp eyesight."

Everyone present looked at Wei Ming in surprise. Most people did not know Wei Ming and had no idea who he was.

However, most people have heard of the name Ice Swordsman.

Twenty years ago, the Ice Swordsman was quite famous in Dongzhou. One characteristic of those who died under his sword was that their whole bodies were cold and stiff, as if they had been frozen to death.

For some unknown reason, the Ice Swordsman disappeared more than ten years ago. Many people thought he was dead.

I didn't expect Wei Ming to be the Ice Swordsman, he was so hidden.

Even Xu Yin was surprised. She didn't even know Wei Ming was the Ice Swordsman.

Wei Yue smiled apologetically at Xu Yin, not hiding it from Xu Yin on purpose. Wei Ming's matter is a bit complicated and has always been a secret of the Wei family.

Baiyuncheng was very satisfied with the shocked expressions of everyone. After three glasses of wine, he had already taken the initiative at the banquet.

Especially Wei Ming, whose identity was suddenly revealed by him, and his momentum suddenly fell behind.

Baiyuncheng said he only talked about Fengyue, but he used this method to undermine Wei Ming's momentum and confidence.

For a tenth-level swordsman, there won't be much difference in swordsmanship. The real gap is fighting consciousness and fighting will.

These are actually changes on the spiritual level, which are very subtle. Even the most skilled swordsman would find it difficult to explain them clearly.

Physical state can be measured with instruments, but mental state cannot be measured. It all depends on the swordsman himself.

A swordsman with a good mental state can always perform beyond his level. On the contrary, you can only use three to five points of ten percent of your strength.

This is the so-called practice of practicing swordsmanship first.

Before a swordsman strikes, he always tries to depress the opponent's mental state.

Swordsmen compete in skills, strength, and speed.

Swordsmen compete in swordsmanship, sword energy, and sword intent.

Therefore, anyone below level ten is called a swordsman. Only when you reach level ten can you be qualified to become a swordsman.

Baiyun City severely dampened Wei Ming's momentum and confidence. Before he even took action, he already had a three-point chance of winning.

Wei Ming is also well aware of this. But this time he came with Wei Yue just because he wanted to see the reality of Baiyun City.

Unexpectedly, the other party saw through his identity first and was immediately at a disadvantage.

Wei Ming was also helpless, but he was suppressed. He couldn't think of any way to fight back.

Moreover, Baiyun City is indeed more powerful, and there is a fierce sword intent between the brows.

The third swordsman of Dongzhou has been fighting all year round, so he can hone his sword to such a sharp edge.

He has been in the laboratory for more than ten years. Although his swordsmanship has improved, his sword intention has become dull. It's much worse than Baiyun City.

There are many discerning people present. Their swordsmanship may not be very high, but their knowledge is high. They all saw Wei Ming's dilemma.

Many people are thinking in their hearts: "Wei Yue's situation is not good..."
