The two first went to the opposite side to have a look at the arena in the martial arts gym.
It is certainly unusual for a martial arts gym to be opened in such a bustling place, as soon as they enter, there will be young servants in Tsing Yi hospitality and lead them into the arena.
Tan Yubing was shocked by the area of the arena—around the arena, at least five or six hundred people could be seated, and the largest ashram in Hongdaoguan was no more than that. But the land in Jiuyao Palace is the least valuable, while the land in Tianyun City is the most valuable.
"There must be a big backer behind this martial arts hall." She whispered to Lu Mingshu.
Lu Mingshu nodded. The bigger the backing of the martial arts school, the more daring others will come to fight, because they are not afraid of being repudiated.
The arena battle was indeed very exciting, and the people who competed in the arena were all at the fusion level at the lowest level. Due to the recent unicorn meeting, many warriors from other places have arrived, bringing a small upsurge to the arena battle. Not everyone can go to the Qilin Club, but everyone can fight in the arena. At this time, being famous is almost the same as being famous all over the world.
"Let's go." Lu Mingshu, who had watched more than a dozen competitions, roughly understood the level of the arena.
Tan Yubing showed surprise: "Aren't you going to play?" She thought that Lu Mingshu would definitely want to play by herself.
Lu Mingshu shook his head: "It's new here, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future, so I won't make it today."
"That's right." Tan Yubing immediately thought, "We've only arrived today, so if we're going to fight, we should rest enough before fighting."
Lu Mingshu knew that she had misunderstood what he meant, but after thinking that there was nothing to correct, he didn't say anything.
Back at the post house, feed Xiaodai before going to bed as usual.
Xiao Dai acted very anxious, and when he saw her, he sprayed hot air from his nose, looking very upset. Although Tianyun City is good, there are too many people, Xiaodai is not used to such a densely populated place.
While feeding it fruit, Lu Mingshu smoothed its fur, and whispered: "Be patient for another two days, and I will change your place soon."
She returned to the room, took out a roll of simple maps she had just bought, and slowly rolled them out.
The candlelight shone on her calm face, adding some shadows inexplicably.
Shao Zhengyang's words echoed in her ears: They are the ones who show others the most. The most likely thing is to let others know that they recognize you as the head lady.
A smile slowly appeared on Lu Mingshu's face.
In the view of the head wife, the head lady of Jiuyao Palace should be able to sell for a good price, right? Especially the lady in charge who has extraordinary talent and has fought eighteen consecutive games in the Tianmen War, winning every match.
Since the opportunity to suppress her has been missed, then sell her for a good price, solve her potential crisis, and get real benefits in exchange.
The master said that the head wife is not a dull person, and her vision should not be limited to the inner house. However, the master forgot that she has not improved her cultivation for many years, and she has not left Jiuyao Palace for a long time. A knife will become blunt if it is not sharpened. It is difficult not to be short-sighted when looking at people who have an acre of land all the year round.
That being the case, why not fulfill her
She doesn't mind, let's add a bigger bargaining chip to Mrs. Sect Leader, to see if she has the ability to sell this Miss Sect Leader!
…
Xiahou Mansion.
It was past half of the night before Xia Houshan escaped from the busy government affairs. Under the service of the maid, step into the steaming soup pool.
The water in the soup pool has a strange fragrance, and what floats on it are not flower petals, but various medicinal materials. The money spent on these medicinal materials, even a warrior in the ecstasy realm, would be speechless after hearing it. But this, to Xiahou Lingshi, was just an ordinary medicinal bath.
The maid stepped forward and gently massaged her body to soothe the tense muscles and better absorb the effect of the medicine.
Even so, she did not relax. While leaning on the wall of the pool with eyes closed and resting, another female officer knelt down and reported the affairs one by one.
"Wait." Xiahou Lingshi suddenly said.
The female officer stopped reporting and waited for orders.
"Read the gift list just now."
"Yes."
The female officer's tone remained the same, and she repeated the gift list she had just read.
"What an important gift." Xia Houshan touched the priceless star spar on her wrist, with a playful smile on her lips, "Who is the gift giver?"
The female officer bowed her head and swept over: "Jiuyao Palace, Yin Hong."
"A mere elder of Jiuyao Palace, who can't offer such a heavy gift, is probably doing something for his superiors."
The female officer replied: "Yin Hong belongs to Fuyun's lineage, and she was able to break through to ecstasy because of the help of the Zhou family."
"The Zhou family?" Xia Houshan tilted her head and thought for a while, "I remember that Zhou Jin had already stepped down from the head of the family nine years ago."
"Yes, his successor is his son-in-law Fu Shangqing."
"Oh, yes. The origin of this head Fu is very interesting."
The female officer did not answer, she was only responsible for stating the facts, not expressing her own thoughts.
"Who is in charge of the Zhou family now?" Xia Houshan asked casually.
"It's Zhou Jin's eldest daughter, that is, Fu Shangqing's current wife, Zhou Miaoru."
"Zhou Miaoru?" Xia Houshan tapped her forehead, "Oh, it's that woman! She's quite scheming, but it's a pity that her bones are too poor. How is she doing now?"
The female official reported: "Since Fu Shangqing took over as the head of Jiuyao Palace, Zhou Miaoru has rarely appeared in front of people, and has become a good wife and mother. Now she has a pair of twin daughters, and she is still in the fusion state, and has not made a breakthrough."
Xia Houshan stretched out her hand, and immediately sent a crystal cup filled with flower brew.
The sweet wine was poured into her mouth, and the thick profound strength entered her stomach. After a moment of delay, she asked, "Is there anything new in Jiuyao Palace?"
The female officer took out a book, glanced at it, and replied: "A few months ago, Jiuyao Palace held a three-year Tianmen battle to determine the true disciple. A strange thing happened. A famous disciple, With eighteen consecutive victories, it became the top of the list."
"Eighteen consecutive victories? That's it?" Xia Houshan didn't care. Jiuyao Palace has gone from bad to worse in recent years. Since Liu Jizhen destroyed the meridians, there are not many talents who can be seen. This eighteen-game winning streak really doesn't matter much in the eyes of Xiahou Lingshi.
"The record is second. The strange thing is the background of this disciple."
"Oh?"
"She is Fu Shangqing's eldest daughter, born out of her former wife. She was only fifteen years old at the time, and had entered the Fusion Realm for several months. No one noticed her beforehand, and she didn't want to challenge all the disciples with her own body. Moreover, she It worked too."
Xia Houshan looked at the female officer and finally became interested.
"anything else?"
The female officer knew who she was interested in, flipped through the news booklet, and reported: "She came to Jiuyao Palace nine years ago, worshiped under Liu Jizhen's family, and has been living in seclusion. The Zhou family has never announced her identity to the public, but After the battle of Tianmen, he suddenly paid great attention to her and called her the eldest lady."
Xia Houshan smiled: "That's how it is." The female officer didn't need to say more, she already understood.
After drinking the flower wine, she said: "It's okay to give such a heavy gift, then let's see each other."
"Yes." The female officer picked up a pen and wrote two words on it.
