Zong Ziheng was restless, so he found a secluded place in the forest, and stayed alone for a long time, seeing the dusk fall before he returned to the arena.
According to the plan, Hua Yuxin will act immediately, he can't delay the business.
On the way, he ran into Li Buyu.
Li Buyu has already swept away yesterday's depression: "Where did your highness go? I have been looking for you for a long time."
"I'm wandering around." The eldest son Heng said softly, "What do you want me for if you don't talk?"
"I want to taste his sword skills with His Royal Highness."
The two chatted and walked towards the arena.
Li Buyu's eyes suddenly fell on Zong Ziheng's waist: "Your Highness, have you changed your sword?"
"Yes." Zong Ziheng took off the sword and showed it to him: "It is the sword given to me by Master Xu Zhinan, from the hand of Master Ran of Giant Spirit Villa."
Li Buyu was flattered: "I, can I watch?"
A swordsman's sword is not an ornamental object, and it is not for people to look at casually. This gesture represents a great recognition.
Zong Ziheng smiled and said: "Don't you want to watch it?" A few years ago, when he was traveling, he accidentally rescued Li Buyu from Xie Chong who was also traveling. The two had known each other in Wuji Palace before, but because of Li Xiangtong, they didn't communicate with each other, but after that, Li Buyu would visit him every year when he came to Daming. Although Zong Zixiao thinks that Li Buyu is a little slippery, he thinks that this young man is smart and likable, and under the cultivation of the head of Wuliang Sect, he should be able to become a great weapon in the future.
"I want to see it, I want to see it." Li Buyu solemnly took the sword with both hands, admired it carefully, and praised sincerely: "Good sword, what's its name?"
"Junlan."
"Good name, His Majesty always chooses names."
Zongzi Heng wondered: "Where did the 'always' come from?"
"Lan Zhe is a gentleman, Heng Zhe is Yu Ye, His Majesty is a sword like a man, and people don't use their names." Li Buyu's expression was very sincere.
The eldest son Heng laughed: "My name was taken by my father, how could it be mine."
"The emperor gave the name, he must think that His Majesty deserves this name, then it will be yours."
"You really have a good tongue."
Talking and laughing, the two of them returned to the arena, just as they bumped into the dark-faced Zong Zixiao.
"Where did you go?" Zong Zixiao said displeasedly, "You disappeared during my martial arts competition, have you been with him all this time?"
Li Buyu said embarrassingly: "Your Highness Ninth Prince."
"I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a rest. When I came back, I ran into silence." Zong Ziheng said, "Did you win?"
"Of course I won." Zong Zixiao squinted at Li Buyu, "When have I ever lost?"
He bit the word "lose" very hard, and Li Buyu's face changed slightly.
Zong Ziheng gave him a look of disapproval: "Okay, has Miss Hua's competition started yet?"
"It's about to start, I thought you forgot." Zong Zixiao pulled Zong Ziheng up, "Let's go."
Li Buyu followed unhurriedly, and was secretly glanced at by Zong Zixiao several times.
At this time, the twilight is rising, and there are only two rounds left in today's competition. The young people who can survive until now are all very good. After all, there are only eight people in total in tomorrow's final competition. Hua Yuxin performed well among the nuns.
But this time she has drawn Ye Yunchen from the Pure Yang Sect, and he is one of the most likely candidates to win the championship in this year's Flood Dragon Association, so there is really no suspense in this competition.
At this time, Ye Yunchen was talking to Xu Zhinan under the ring.
The three walked over, Xu Zhinan smiled and said, "Your Highness, everyone is looking for you."
Zong Ziheng said embarrassedly: "I feel a little unwell, so I took a rest."
Ye Yunchen bowed his hands to several people, but when he looked at Zong Zixiao, there was some youthful arrogance in his brows.
Zong Zixiao also sized Ye Yunchen up.
They weigh each other's strength.
Xu Zhinan instructed in a low voice: "Yun Chen, please show mercy to Miss Hua, but don't be too contemptuous."
"Brother, I understand."
Li Buyu asked curiously: "Xu Zhenren, tonight is the night of the full moon. I heard that after sunset is the most yin time, when Yuanyang kung fu is at its weakest?"
Xu Zhinan said with a smile: "Yuanyang Gongfa is pure and yang, and the night of the full moon is indeed not good for us. This night of the month is the time when I send monks to adjust the breath, but it is only slightly affected, not considered weak. .”
On the other side of the arena, Hua Juncheng was also encouraging his younger sister, but Hua Yuxin was absent-minded, frequently looking in the direction of Zong Ziheng. From outsiders' perspective, Hua Yu's nervousness was because she was going to fight Ye Yunchen, but it was not.
After the start of the competition, Ye Yunchen held the scales carefully, he didn't seem to be obviously aggressive, and he didn't decide to end the battle after more than a dozen moves in a row. He dodged Hua Yuxin's stabbing sword, and swept her shoulder with his palm.
Hua Yuxin took the palm, retreated several steps and fell to the ground.
Ye Yunchen cupped his hands: "Miss Hua, accept."
Hua Yuxin was lying on the ground, unresponsive, as if passed out.
Hua Juncheng called out, "Xin'er?"
Ye Yunchen frowned slightly.
Hua Juncheng jumped onto the ring, supported Hua Yuxin, and tested her injury with spiritual power: "Xin'er!"
Everyone was a little surprised, everyone could tell that Ye Yunchen didn't hit hard, and the female cultivator was definitely not an ordinary weak woman, how could she not be able to catch a single palm.
Hua Juncheng gave Ye Yunchen an annoyed look, but he couldn't blame him. There is no distinction between men and women in the arena, and each person wins or loses according to his own ability. If he blames the other party for this, it will only show his narrow-mindedness.
However, Ye Yunchen looked at Xu Zhinan helplessly, with innocent and blank eyes.
Suddenly, Hua Yuxin opened his eyes abruptly.
"Xin'er, are you okay..."
Hua Yuxin's expression became very strange, she staggered up from the ground, looked around, as if she was looking for something, but turned a blind eye to the people present.
"What's wrong with you?" Hua Juncheng looked at his sister worriedly.
Xu Zhinan coughed lightly: "Yun Chen, how much strength did you exert just now?"
"At most three or four points, really." Ye Yunchen said hastily.
"My Dan, my Dan." Hua Yuxin murmured to herself while covering her stomach with one hand.
"Xin'er, what are you talking about?" Hua Juncheng held Hua Yuxin, "What's wrong with you?"
"My Dan!" Hua Yuxin ruthlessly pushed Hua Juncheng away, and shouted sharply.
"What... Dan?"
"What's the matter, what happened to her?"
"It's like being possessed by an evil spirit..."
Xu Zhinan jumped onto the ring and shouted, "Who are you?!"
"My pill, my..." Hua Yu wandered aimlessly as if she had lost her soul, but she just tightly protected her abdomen, she seemed to have finally found Hua Juncheng, startled for a moment, and said quietly, "Little tiger? Did you see my Dan?"
Hua Juncheng was shocked, and stared at his sister with wide eyes: "You...you..."
"What's going on here?" Li Buyu asked anxiously, "What's wrong with Miss Hua?"
Xu Zhinan took out a spirit-gathering talisman from his bosom, and saw that the talisman instantly burst into flames.
"Xie Chong, it really is Xie Chong!"
"Where is the evil, how dare you go on Miss Hua's body!"
"This place is full of monks, with such a strong yang energy, how is it possible?"
The commotion on the side of the ring gradually attracted the crowd.
Zong Ziheng said: "This evil tone is so familiar."
Zong Zixiao also echoed, "That's right, that person was always calling 'My Pill' all the time."
Hua Juncheng looked at Hua Yuxin with a pale face, and said in a trembling voice, "Could it be that you are... little uncle?"
"Little uncle?" Xu Zhinan asked, "Young Master Hua said, but the one who was killed by Chen Xingyong..."
"That's right! 'Little Tiger' is the nickname my uncle gave me when I was a child." Concerned about it, Hua Juncheng has completely lost his sense of control.
Xu Zhinan thought for a moment: "Does Miss Hua have anything from his life on her body?"
"Yes, Xin'er's dagger."
Hua Yu shouted heartily: "My Dan, my Dan, it's right here, it's right here!"
"I understand." Xu Zhinan said seriously, "On the night of the full moon, Zhiyang's Yuanyang skills are on the decline. Since my spiritual energy is very attractive to evil spirits, it is easy to attract Yin energy to invade at this time, and this monk's resentment has been year-round. Before leaving, he followed the objects and people he cared about, and by all kinds of coincidences, Yun Chen's palm helped him to land on Miss Hua's body."
All the disciples of the Chunyang sect were stunned when they heard it. It is true that they would be especially attractive to Xie Chong on the night of the full moon, but it was unheard of for them to help Xie Chong to ascend to the human body with spiritual power, but no one dared to question their elder brother.
Zong Ziheng watched the performance on stage, sweating coldly from nervousness.
Zong Zixiao quietly squeezed Zong Ziheng's palm, his eldest brother is pure and upright by nature, so don't reveal his secrets first.
Hua Juncheng felt sad, choked up and said, "Uncle, is it really you?"
Hua Yuxin was still looking for her "own pill", but everyone, including Zong Minghe, rushed over upon hearing the sound.
Xu Zhinan took out another exorcism talisman from his pocket: "I'm sorry."
"Wait..." Hua Juncheng said anxiously.
"If this continues, Miss Hua will be hurt, and this is not your little uncle, but just a trace of resentment from him."
"But he said that his pill is here." Hua Juncheng clenched his fists, "Although Chen Xingyong has been executed, who ate my little uncle's pill!" He looked around, his voice stern.
Everyone knew in their hearts that those who were able to buy human pills from Chen Xingyong at sky-high prices were either rich or expensive, and most of them came from famous schools, so the one who ate human pills was likely to be in Jiaolonghui.
Xu Zhinan asked: "Who ate your pill!"
"You give me back my pill, right here, my pill..." Hua Yuxin was about to fall off the ring.
Xu Zhinan asked three times in a row, but naturally there was no answer. He was worried that Hua Yu's heart would be revealed after a long time, and after asking Hua Juncheng's consent with his eyes, he threw the exorcism talisman out.
This talisman has no effect on ordinary people. As soon as the talisman touched Hua Yu's heart, she screamed and passed out.
Hua Juncheng hugged his younger sister, and said with tears in his eyes, "Little Martial Uncle, I will definitely avenge you."
"What's going on!" Zong Minghe asked.
The eldest son Xiao said: "Father, do you still remember the Huaying faction monk that my elder brother and I subdued in Gutuo Town? He just got on Miss Hua's body."
"What?" Zong Minghe obviously didn't believe it, "The one who got the pill?"
"Yes." The eldest son Heng cupped his hands and said, "Father, when my son interrogated Chen Xingyong, he didn't know who got the pill in the end, but just now..."
Everyone has seen what happened just now. Although it is very absurd, anything related to evil spirits can happen. At this time, everyone is wondering whether the people around here will eat Extraordinary Dan.
Zong Ziheng glanced at Yan Shu secretly, but saw that there was no flaw in his face. Zong Ziheng secretly clenched his fists, this was just the first step of the plan, tomorrow, this beast will show his feet.
