"Father!"
When she saw Liu Changhe, Liu Yan was the first to rush into his arms.
"How old are you kids? Aren't you making others laugh?"
Although he said so, he still held Liu Yan tightly. This was the first time since childhood that his daughter had been away from him for such a long time.
"Uncle Liu! Your spirit is getting better and better!"
Li Mo could tell that Liu Changhe's strength had greatly increased during his absence, and he was already close to a senior martial artist.
"Haha, your boy, your uncle is happy to see you. Who is this little brother?"
"Oh! Uncle Liu, this is Bai Xiao."
Bai Xiao was also very sensible. When he saw Liu Changhe asking about him, he saluted him very politely.
"Hello Uncle Liu!"
"Okay! Okay! Okay! This is not the place to talk. Let's go in and talk."
…
Liu Changhe took the three of them to his room in the post house. Learn more about the experiences of Li Mo and Liu Yan during this period.
When he heard that Li Mo and the others met Liu Ming on the way here, his expression became very ugly, and he felt sad for the second elder Liu Changhe.
"This kid Liu Ming is obsessed with profit, and all he sees is power and status. He should not have been sent out in the first place, ruining such a good talent for cultivation!"
Liu Changhe still felt very sorry for Liu Ming. The atmosphere in the room suddenly became dull.
"Father, Li Mo has also signed up to participate in this conference!"
Liu Yan was still clever and quickly changed the subject when she saw that the atmosphere was not right.
"Oh! Xiaomo, are you also interested in this competition?"
Liu Changhe was very surprised. How could Li Mo, who had always been very low-key, participate in the martial arts competition? Could it be that he was also going for the reward of being promoted to a higher rank
"Father, I secretly signed up for Li Mo!"
"You kid, you are causing trouble. Do you know the purpose of holding this conference
Li Mo and Liu Yan both looked at Liu Changhe in surprise. Is there any hidden secret behind this martial arts conference
Liu Changhe stood up and kept pacing back and forth in the room. It was obvious that he was having a fierce ideological struggle.
Li Mo called Bai Xiao to his side and whispered a few words, and Bai Xiao left the room.
"Uncle Liu, I have asked Bai Xiao to wait outside. If you have any questions, feel free to tell me!"
"Oh! Well, originally only us four county guards knew about this matter, and the prince also gave repeated orders not to reveal it, but I didn't expect you to show up here and even sign up to participate in the conference."
Listening to Liu Changhe's tone, Liu Yan also realized the seriousness of the problem.
"Father, tell me quickly! What is going on?"
"Now in Yuqing Prefecture, the army is ready to attack Yiyang County. The governor Han Meng holds this kind of conference at this time, firstly to expand military expenditures, and secondly, the high-ranking official of Yi is the bait to attract strong people to work for the court and resist. foreign enemy!"
"Ah! What should we do? Father, please think of a solution! Can we withdraw from the game?"
Liu Yan didn't know that this would be the result, and he was very worried.
"If I could withdraw from the competition, would I still be so worried? The prince has ordered that all martial arts monks who can qualify for the competition are not allowed to withdraw from the competition. Even if you do not achieve good results, the court will not let you go back. You will be classified as Join the army!"
"Father, can't you think of a way?" Liu Yan's voice was obviously choked.
"Unless... Xiao Mo can win the first place in the competition. As far as I know, the prince will reward the first place as Marquis of Wanhu. Although he has no real power, he will not go to the battlefield in person unless he has to. But the powerful person in this competition There are so many, it’s probably very difficult to stand out!”
"Ugh! Ugh... It's all because of my ignorance that I harmed Li Mo!"
At this time, Liu Yan was already crying.
Liu Changhe also had a lonely expression. Although Li Mo had defeated powerful enemies in Fanyang County, the enemy was not someone to be taken lightly. If something unexpected happened... Liu Changhe didn't want to think about it anymore!
"Yan'er, Uncle Liu! Don't worry, even going to the battlefield is not a bad thing for me, not to mention that these are all things in the future!"
Li Mo tried his best to comfort Liu Yan and Liu Changhe. He didn't want to see the two women worrying about him.
"It's all my fault Li Mo! Let's go! How about going to a place where no one knows me?"
Liu Changhe and Li Mo were both stunned by Liu Yan's words. I didn’t expect Liu Yan to get along with him this way!
"No, it's not that I won't take you away Yan'er, but what will happen to the Liu family after we leave? Do you want to see the Liu family being implicated because of me?"
Concern leads to chaos. Liu Yan didn't consider anything else at all. When he heard Li Mo's words, Liu Yan was stunned.
Liu Changhe was extremely moved when he heard what Li Mo said, and he was glad that he had not misjudged the person.
"Uncle Liu, please rest assured. Now that the matter has come to this, I will work hard to achieve good results in the conference."
Li Mo was not as worried as Liu Changhe and his daughter. Instead, he felt that this was a great opportunity for him to gain a foothold in the Xuangu Continent.
…
Several people who had not seen each other for a long time, but because of Li Mo's registration to participate in the conference, the atmosphere became particularly solemn.
Li Mo rejected Liu Changhe's request to stay overnight and left the inn with Bai Xiao. Liu Yan did not leave and stayed at the inn. Although Li Mo tried his best to persuade him, Liu Yan still blamed himself.
Liu Yan returned to the inn early the next morning. Today was the start of the conference. She could have followed her father to watch the conference in the VIP area, but she chose to come back. She wanted to accompany Li Mo until the end.
Li Mo took Liu Yan and Bai Xiao and walked towards the fighting arena in the center of the city. On the way, we also met many martial arts monks who were going to participate in the competition, but the number of people was much smaller than when they signed up yesterday.
The conference uses a non-level lottery elimination system until the top ten of this conference are produced. The people participating in the conference are all under the age of twenty-five, and their strength is also very close. They are all warrior-level warriors. Of course, there are also some powerful people. As for which opponent you will draw, it depends on your luck!
After Li Mo drew the lots, he walked towards the Hou Chang area. Liu Yan and Bai Xiao were sitting in the audience, both very nervously waiting for Li Mo to appear!
Even though most of the martial arts monks failed the pre-match test, there were still as many as 400 people left. The huge fighting venue in Tiandu City was divided into twenty small venues, and the competitions were held at the same time, which also saved a lot of time.
Li Mo was scheduled to play the third game on one of the venues.
Before the conference started, King Gongxian, the ruler of Yuhua Prefecture, accompanied by four county guards, walked to the VIP area located in the center of the auditorium. Some old men came forward to pay homage. They must have been extraordinary people. , either with a distinguished status, or with wealth or nobility.
After a middle-aged man with the strength of a senior martial artist introduced the rules of the conference, the conference also kicked off.
Those who can pass the test and participate in the conference are all the best young people from major families and sects. They all want to shine in this conference. The competition is also extremely fierce. The brilliance of various magic weapons on the field is colorful. The sounds of weapons clashing and the explosions of air waves are endless! The audience cheered loudly!
For ordinary people, it is rare to see so many strong players fighting against each other, all shouting loudly to cheer for their classmates or friends!
