When the cold body fell, the Spirit Emperor's heart was already half dead.
Throughout his life, his dreams and long-cherished wishes were shattered.
The Spirit Emperor has always been reluctant to let go of his beloved daughter, so he began to study this taboo puppet, even using soul techniques to assist him. However, everything happened so suddenly, like a wind and a lingering cloud, shattering his dream.
This was a funeral for a puppet, and Lai Ling'er's puppet body was hidden in the yard.
"Sorry, because of my arrival, your daughter..." Li Hugo said.
The Spirit Emperor placed a bouquet of flowers in front of a mound. He stood up slowly. Overnight, his face became much haggard. He sighed longly: "Actually, I know that sooner or later, this day It was coming, but I didn’t expect it to come so early, which caught people off guard.”
"My condolences, for Ling'er, this is the best choice. Since there is a soul after death, there will also be reincarnation. Maybe she can be reborn in a good family in her next life." Li Huguo said.
The Spirit Emperor patted Li Yuguo on the shoulder: "Boy, what are your plans? Now your brother Yunyan has become a disciple of Master Xiuli and has been directly promoted to become an inner disciple. What about you? What do you have? Intend?"
"Let's talk about the future in the future. For now... I just want to live my life well." Li Yuguo said.
The Spirit Emperor thought for a while: "How about you and I becoming sworn brothers?"
Li Yuguo was shocked: "Wait a minute, you are a senior..."
"No, I was just born fifteen years earlier than you, and you have recently helped me untie the knots in my heart over the years. I originally planned to have a master-disciple relationship with you, but now it seems that I am not enough. Ge, you actually saved me..." The Spirit Emperor shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Li Yuguo's eyes flickered, and his mind was filled with thoughts.
The Spirit Emperor added: "And you are not as good as me in the way of puppets. Your theory of puppet skins, puppet materials, and other things is a bit better than mine. So you and I are like-minded, and no one is better than the other." How much, becoming a master and apprentice is too far-fetched, brothers are more or less the same."
"Brother Spirit Emperor, please bow to me!" Li Yuguo said with his hands clasped in fists.
The Spirit Emperor quickly supported Li Yuguo and said, "No need to be polite. In this case, you and I will be brothers from now on!"
The Spirit Emperor thought for a moment and rolled his eyes: "If not, how about I help you enter the inner gate?"
"No." Li Yuguo flatly refused, "If I rely on your relationship to enter the inner gate, no one will be convinced, and maybe some people will come looking for trouble. It's better for me to take it one step at a time and use my own strength. Reach the top!”
"Reaching the top..." Emperor Ling nodded thoughtfully, "Indeed, the genius Ye Qiong was previously accepted as a direct disciple by the master, but in fact not many people believed him, and privately said that he was a second-generation official. , if it were not for the support of the five major families, it would be impossible for him to gain the favor of the head."
Li Yuguo frowned when he heard Ye Qiong.
However, in the original history, Ye Qiong also worked step by step, and this led to many opportunities. This Tianwu Academy is the cradle of many masters in Haotian Kingdom, so there are naturally many opportunities in it. If you reach the sky in one step, these will naturally be missing. Opportunities to practice opportunities.
"Brother, I'm done with you now. There will be another arena match with Yang Tong tomorrow." Li Hugo said.
The Spirit Emperor pondered for a moment and said: "Yang Tong is not a threat to you, but he has a sister who protects you. You have to be careful with this sister. Her strength is not inferior to mine. Although you can remain invincible with the demon element puppet." Earth, but I have something to say here, don’t use too many Demon Yuan puppets, after all, Demon Yuan puppets at the Martial Emperor level are very rare, and as the saying goes, a common man is not guilty but harbors a treasure in his possession!"
"Thank you for reminding me, brother!" Li Huguo said, cupping his fists.
The Spirit Emperor opened the door: "Go and be careful. I will cheer you up tomorrow under the ring."
"Okay!" Li Yuguo did not dare to stay and immediately left the Linghuang's courtyard.
…
Early the next morning, next to the huge sign on the ground list, a ring was already located in the center of the square, with people gathering around it.
People also looked at the ring. There was a young man holding a knife on the ring. The young man was very strong and looked to be about twenty years old, the same age as Li Hugo.
Yang Tong crossed his hands on his chest, holding the Bishui Handao in his arms. He looked upright and seemed to think that he had won.
The disciples around him were also talking about it.
"The person who is here to challenge Yang Tong this time is the guy who climbed the 100th floor alone. His name is Hugo. This guy is really crazy. As soon as he comes in, he wants to challenge Yang Tong, who is twenty-three on the ranking list. , although Yang Tong usually likes to have fun, his cultivation is not bad either!"
"I think it's just that Hugo who wants to be in the limelight. He plans to make a big splash. Hmph! How can this be so easy? I see... this guy is here to kill someone!"
"Who says it's not, but I heard that this guy has a maid who looks like a fairy. What's her name? Yes... Nie Xiaoqian!"
Chattering words came from the crowd, and Li Huguo was followed by two people, who had already squeezed through the crowd.
Li Huguo wasn't very impressive, but the masked girl following him was very attractive.
Because Nie Xiaoqian is so beautiful, even in this world, she is definitely a first-rate beauty. Just imagine how many boys' dream girl Nie Xiaoqian was in A Chinese Ghost Story.
Therefore, Li Yuguo did not want to be too public and directly covered Nie Xiaoqian's face.
At the same time, there was also a white paper fan traveling with him. The white paper fan had decided to follow Li Huguo because Li Huguo didn't mind his cultivation and was a brother to him.
"Yang Tong deliberately called so many people because he wanted to kill you in the ring." White Paper Fan said.
"What a coincidence, I also want to do this to make him arrogant! I want to see who will win when the time comes!" Li Hugo said, and he jumped onto the ring, causing an uproar.
Of course, the first thing is to crush him in terms of appearance. Li Yuguo himself has good facial features and is a handsome young man, so after he came to power, many female disciples with good looks became obsessed with him.
"Look, the junior brother who came to challenge is so good-looking!"
"I also heard that there are two handsome guys here this time. One is the arrogant and domineering Junior Brother Hugo, and the other is called Yunyan. He is a feminine and beautiful man, but I heard that he was taken away by Senior Sister Xiuli."
Li Yuguo said to Yang Tong next to him: "Oh, the Bishui Handao is ready. It seems that you are still very honest!"
"Why are you so arrogant? I'll kill you sooner or later!" Yang Tong said, "So many people are watching this time. I'm looking at you. I'm afraid your beautiful master maid is helpless!"
Seeing Li Yuguo being so calm and composed, Yang Tong's eyelids were beating constantly despite his stubborn words, and there was a vague feeling of uneasy anger in his heart, as if something unexpected would happen next.
He regretted a little. Did he agree too happily? After all, he has never really fought against Li Yuguo, and he doesn't know how much Li Yuguo weighs now.
It's just that although I regret it in my heart, there is no way out now. The army is already approaching the city. If I retreat, I am afraid it will only attract ridicule from the people around me.
"This bastard relies on his family and his maid. In fact, he is not that powerful. His knife is just an ordinary long knife. What I felt just now must be an illusion!" Yang Tong comforted himself, so Regained some confidence.
He paused for a moment, pulled out the Blue Water Cold Sword and pointed it at Li Huguo: "Let me learn from you, Junior Brother Hugo, how strong you are! Of course, as a senior brother, I will not hold back. This is an education for you. !”
Li Yuguo laughed, but his smile quickly faded. He looked at Yang Tong and made a "please" gesture.
Many people also saw this scene in their eyes, and they also felt that this battle did not seem to be very ordinary, and one of the parties must be hiding some trump card.
There were many elders on both sides. As teachers and elders of Tianwu Academy, they naturally should not interfere. However, this was a ranking competition challenge, so they had to be witnesses, so they came as scheduled.
Generally, challenging the Earth Ranking is a very dangerous act. After all, swords have no eyes and are prone to accidents. The reason why these elders are here is also because of this.
Their breathing was also a little rapid, and their pale faces looked towards the field one by one.
