As soon as he said this, Lin Kai's face, which was still full of smiles, froze.

"Kid, let me see you" He gritted his teeth and said, but before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by a shout from afar.

"The surname is Xu!" Several figures walked over from afar and arrived beside Xu Han in the blink of an eye.

However, it was Fang Ziyu, Qin Keqing, and Zhou Zhang.

Thinking about it, because the Dao Discussion Conference had begun and the disciples of Fang Ziyu under house arrest had also been removed, she was able to join in the fun.

But when she came to Xu Han's side and saw Lin Kai's figure, the smile on her face immediately sank.

"Miss Fang." Lin Kai had already seen Fang Ziyu's petite appearance a few times, but now that he saw her again, he was naturally delighted. He had also forgotten how unhappy he had been with Xu Han just now, so he opened his mouth and called out.

Fang Ziyu ignored him. With a cold expression, he turned his head and did not respond.

Lin Kai's mood was naturally extremely unhappy, but it wasn't easy for him to get angry. He just secretly felt embarrassed and lost face in front of the sons of the same generation.

"Miss Fang is from a decent family. Brother Lin is your future husband. Isn't it against the rule of being a wife for you to be so cold?" At this moment, the black-clothed young master, who was the leader of the crowd, finally spoke at that time.

This action could not only extinguish the arrogance of Xu Han and the others, but also establish his prestige in the hearts of Lin Kai and the others. It could be said to be killing two birds with one stone. Lin Kai, who had been defeated repeatedly, revealed a grateful expression at that time. Obviously, he hadn't expected the black-clothed young master to stand up for him at this moment.

Hearing this, Fang Ziyu intentionally retorted, but the black-clothed young master also stood firm. For a moment, she could not find any words to say. He glared at Xu Han fiercely, as if he was questioning why Lin Kai, who was supposed to be recovering from his injuries on the bed, had appeared here alive and kicking.

Xu Han smiled bitterly and shook his head. His previous calculations should have been correct. This Lin Kai ate his leg whip. Logically speaking, he wouldn't be able to get out of bed these past few days. And now, he had appeared so arrogantly, probably because there were some incredible figures hidden in the team accompanying him. But presumably so, Zhu Longqi and the others' identities were extremely noble. How could they not be protected by a powerful person?

"Sigh, Ziyu has been in a bad mood lately. Brother Long, don't mind. I will definitely be able to discipline him when I return." Seeing that everyone was silent, Lin Kai's expression became even more grim. He took a step forward with a look of persuasion, but he had already taken Fang Ziyu as his own possession.

"Brother Lin seems to like to talk to himself." Xu Han, who had been silent for a long time, finally took a step forward and said this.

"Brother Lin and Miss Ziyu's marriage was personally arranged by Elder Sikong. Do you think there is something wrong?" The black-clothed young master asked Xu Han with narrowed eyes.

"Of course there's nothing wrong." At that moment, Xu Han's eyes narrowed, and he didn't let go of the black-clothed young master's gaze. "It's just that this month is full of darkness and sunshine, and people are blessed with misfortune. Before we reach a definitive conclusion, what can be absolute?"

The threat contained in Xu Han's words was almost unconcealed. As he spoke, the auras of the soldiers behind the black-clothed young master condensed and a murderous aura spread out.

Xu Han had only felt such a murderous aura from the Asuras of the Dark Asura Palace before, and the aura emitted by an inconspicuous figure among the armored warriors was clearly different from the rest of them. At that time, Xu Han understood that this person must be the great power hidden amongst the crowd.

Seeing that the soldiers were about to attack, the black-clothed young master, Zhu Longqi, the son of Zhu Xian, extended his hand and signaled for everyone not to act rashly.

"Young Master Xu's sharp tongue was heard before he came down. Today's sight was truly extraordinary." Zhu Longqi said in a calm voice, and then changed the topic. "I just don't know how long Young Master Xu will be arrogant with such a sharp tongue."

Hearing this, Xu Han thought to himself that Zhu Longqi would be able to remain calm even if he provoked him. This alone was several times stronger than Lin Kailang's. But on the surface, Xu Han remained calm. He glanced at Zhu Longqi indifferently and said, "There's no need to worry about Eldest Young Master Zhu."

At this time, the battle on the martial arena ended. A man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist finally knocked his opponent off the arena. To be able to win on such a large occasion was naturally a rare thing for him, who was from a third-rate sect. At that time, the man opened his hands to welcome the congratulations of everyone below the stage.

This strange movement attracted Zhu Longqi's attention. He looked at Xu Han, who was standing beside him, and raised his eyebrows. At that moment, his body jumped through the dense crowd before him and landed on the arena.

"I, Zhu Longqi, am from the Heavenspan Sect!" Zhu Longqi cupped his fists and said to the man.

Zhu Longqi!

Such a name caused the expressions of everyone below the stage and the man on stage to change. Long Night Si Zhu Xian's son, the disciple of the Violet Radiance Saber Saint, such an identity was no longer something that could be described by the simple words'distinguished '.

"Please!" Then, Zhu Longqi narrowed his eyes and stretched out his hand. Someone in the armor below the stage understood and threw the long saber in his hand, landing firmly in Zhu Longqi's hand.

After entering the arena, he naturally wanted to fight.

After a brief moment of surprise, the tiger-backed man came to an understanding. His eyes narrowed and he immediately looked at Zhu Longqi with vigilance. After a famous clan, you can't underestimate it.

However, compared to the vigilance of the man, Zhu Longqi, who was holding a long saber in his hand, seemed to be leisurely and leisurely.

"Coming." Then he shouted softly, and his body instantly turned into a streak of black lightning as he rushed towards the man. The speed was so fast that everyone's eyes were dazzled.

Pu!

Then, a miserable scream sounded out. Before everyone could regain their senses, the burly man with the tiger's back spat out a line of blood. He flew backwards and landed outside the arena.

"Make way." Zhu Longqi put away his saber and said.

His bearing was extraordinary, and he was extremely heroic.

At that moment, everyone finally regained their senses and cries of alarm suddenly sounded.

Although the man had only come from a third-rate sect, he still possessed the strength of a Netherpassage Realm cultivator on the arena. However, Zhu Longqi had only used one move, and not even everyone present could see how he had used that move. The man had already lost the battle. From this, it could be seen how powerful Zhu Longqi was. Looking at the martial arts world of the Great Zhou Empire, only the first disciple of the Linglong Pavilion who had already returned to the Chen Kingdom could compare in length.

However, now that Chen Xuanji was not here, the leader of today's Dao Discussion Conference should have fallen into the hands of the Crown Prince of the Long Night Division.

Xu Han and the others also exchanged glances at each other at that time, and they all saw horror in each other's eyes.

Even Xu Han hadn't expected Zhu Longqi to have such strength.

"To be able to come to Linglong Pavilion to participate in such a prosperous era is a blessing to me. Today, I would like to ask all of you to be generous with your advice." Zhu Longqi said loudly at that time. Such words and attitudes made it difficult for ordinary people to have any ill feelings towards this young master of the Longevity Division.

However, none of the people present dared to step forward and humiliate themselves because of his battle prowess.

Zhu Longqi stood on the platform and shouted several times, but no one dared to challenge him.

Zhu Longqi had expected such a situation. He suddenly raised his eyebrows and turned to look at Xu Han in the crowd. He pointed at the saber in his hand and said, "I heard that Brother Xu of the Exquisite Pavilion is a handsome young man. I refuse to give him any advice."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone cast their gazes towards Xu Han.

Xu Han frowned, but he never thought that Zhu Longqi would have such a move. However, his temper was calm, so he naturally wouldn't be moved by Zhu Longqi's crude provocation. Just as he was about to say no, his gaze suddenly fell on Lin Kai, who had already squeezed into the arena and was cheering for Zhu Longqi.

Xu Han's heart skipped a beat, and a hesitant expression appeared on his face.

"I'm just a doctor. This dancing knife and gun thing.."

"Brother Xu, why are you being so awkward? I've heard of your ability long ago. I heard that all the proud disciples of the Dragon Palm Sect have been defeated by you. In the Exquisite Pavilion, how many people can have Brother Xu's ability?" How could Zhu Longqi let Xu Han push him away like this? At that time, he said loudly.

Everyone on the stage had heard about Xu Han and Ye Hongjian, and Zhu Longqi's relationship with him was self-evident. Seeing Zhu Longqi's invitation to battle, Xu Han still hesitated, and a burst of whispers suddenly arose in the crowd.

Naturally, what he said would not be good words. Hearing this, Xu Han's face turned red, and he seemed to be quite angry.

He finally couldn't stand such pointing and taking a step forward through gritted teeth.

"Alright! I will accept this battle!"

..

Seeing Xu Han walk onto the arena, Fang Ziyu and Qin Keqing couldn't help but reveal anxious expressions. After all, Zhu Longqi's strength was extremely strong just now, and Fang Ziyu, who had trained with Xu Han, also had some understanding of Xu Han's background. She didn't think that Xu Han, who couldn't even deal with her, would be Zhu Longqi's opponent.

"What is the surname Xu doing? This is clearly the excitement of that surname Zhu. How can he be fooled like this?" Immediately, she said anxiously. Even though Qin Keqing didn't say anything, the worry on her face was much greater than Fang Ziyu's.

Only Zhou Zhang, who was one of the two, looked at Xu Han, who was walking up the stage, then looked at Lin Kai, who was standing beside the arena, and smiled.

"You have to thank Brother Xu." He turned to look at Fang Ziyu and said.

"Huh?" Hearing this, Fang Ziyu was stunned. Obviously, he did not understand what Zhou Zhang meant.

"Take a look and you'll know." Zhou Zhang shook his head and didn't say anything, but his face was filled with an incomparably confident smile.

..

"Brother Xu, please." On the arena, Zhu Longqi looked at Xu Han with an unusual expression. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He stretched out his hand and said, signaling for Xu Han to attack first.

Zhu Longqi knew about Xu Han's abilities.

He had only managed to defeat Lang Chaosha a few times by relying on the Dao of the Body to wrap his body around the Dou Fang. If he opened the distance and displayed his abilities, how could a cultivator in the Netherpassage Realm be a match for a cultivator in the same realm?

Moreover, Zhu Longqi was no match for ordinary Nether Opening Realm cultivators.

Therefore, he had enough confidence in himself to use this arena to teach this arrogant and domineering Xu Han a lesson. Yu Ji, Xu Han was Ye Hongjian's fianc é. If he said that it was impossible for him to have no grudges in his heart, he naturally needed to vent his anger. To him, Xu Han had injured Lin Kai many times, so teaching him a lesson could also rope in people's hearts.

Thinking of this, Zhu Longqi secretly felt that his plan was extremely wonderful.

"Then you're being disrespectful." Xu Han nodded and held the strange-looking red longsword on his back in his hand. He paused for a moment before rushing towards Zhu Longqi.

He pushed his fleshly body cultivation to the extreme, and his muscles bulged, instantly increasing his speed to an extremely terrifying level.

However, this was still too slow for Zhu Long to get up.

The young master in black with the long saber in his hand narrowed his eyes. At that moment, the saber in his hand was crossing in front of him at an extremely strange angle.

Clang!

With a crisp sound, the sound of golden stones exploded.

At that moment, Xu Han's sword landed on Zhu Longqi's saber.

It was as if everything had fallen into his calculations.

Xu Han's body paused, his face revealing astonishment, while Zhu Longqi's lips curled upwards, and his saber-gripping hand shook violently.

An enormous force came from the blade. Xu Han did not dare to stiffen his shock and hurriedly borrowed his strength to retreat.

"One move." Zhu Longqi, who had forced Xu Han back, did not have the slightest intention of pursuing him. Instead, he looked at Xu Han and said indifferently.

..

At this moment, Xu Han finally understood how powerful this young master Zhu was. He didn't dare to prop himself up. The moment he stopped, his toes flew out again and the sword in his hand trembled.

Zheng!

At the first sound of the sword's cry, his speed increased a little.

Still too slow.

Zhu Longqi said in his heart. He casually waved the saber in his hand and once again blocked Xu Han's sword without any bias.

"Two moves." He smiled as he looked at Xu Han, who had been repelled by him, and a cold light flashed in his eyes. "I'll give Brother Xu another move."

His calm attitude made everyone's hearts go cold.

To be fair, The two sword moves that Xu Han had just used were not fancy, but their strength and might were extremely terrifying. Many Nether Opening Realm cultivators had no chance of winning in the face of such a killing move, but they had to go all out to make their final decision. However, Zhu Longqi was like a casual stroll in the courtyard, easily neutralizing such a fierce sword move.

At that moment, everyone's gazes fell on the linen-clothed youth.

They knew that if Xu Han hadn't made any achievements in this final move, once Zhu Longqi started to counterattack, Xu Han probably wouldn't have the slightest bit of strength to resist.

Since they understood this, Xu Han naturally understood as well.

He stared fixedly at the black-clothed man holding the knife not far away, his forehead covered in sweat.

However, he was a tough opponent.

As Xu Han thought this, his body moved again.

It was still the same speed, and it stabbed straight at him with a single glance.

It was as if this sword strike had not changed at all compared to before.

Are you running out of tricks? Looking at Xu Han, Zhu Longqi secretly sneered in his heart. He waved his saber again, wanting to use the same technique to block Xu Han's sword strike.

However, just as the two of them were about to collide with each other, Xu Han's body suddenly shortened. The wrist that held the sword exerted strength, and the straight stab turned into a top-down move.

The blade of the sword was cold, and the angle was crafty, directly reaching for Zhu Longqi's throat.

Xu Han's change was extremely sudden. Everyone below the stage could be said to have never expected it, and they all let out a burst of exclamations of shock at that time.

As the target of this sword move, Zhu Longqi first raised his eyebrows in surprise, but then a cold smile appeared on his forehead again. Xu Han's move was dangerous. If the two of them were at the same level, Zhu Longqi would probably suffer some hidden losses. However, Zhu Longqi's cultivation was much higher than Xu Han's. In his eyes, such a sword strike was nothing more than a child's playfulness.

At that moment, his saber turned around, but it did not return to defend, but instead went straight for Xu Han's face.

There were some that surrounded Wei to save Zhao.

He believed that with his speed, this saber would dare to cut open his face before Xu Han's sword. The only choice before Xu Han was to withdraw his sword and defend, or .. die under his saber.

He had enough confidence in this.

In fact, this was indeed the case. Facing Zhu Longqi's whistling blade, Xu Hanming realized that he definitely could not defeat it first. Therefore, he decisively withdrew his sword and defended himself.

However, the power of Zhu Longqi's saber strike was clearly much stronger than the previous two. Although Xu Han's sword blocked his blade in time, he still couldn't help but shake and fly backwards at that time.

Just as everyone thought that Xu Han was going to retreat and Zhu Longqi was going to chase after him, Xu Han suddenly stretched out his hand and a cold light flew out of his sleeve.

"Hidden weapon?!" Zhu Longqi, who was about to lift his saber, was stunned for a moment. He had no choice but to postpone his attack and use the long saber in his hand to disperse the cold light that Xu Han had waved.

It was a dagger hidden in his left arm.

The sneer on Zhu Longqi's face became even heavier. Although Jianghu Bi Dou had not forbidden concealed weapons, it was still a serious tournament after all. It was not a Jianghu vendetta. Using concealed weapons was somewhat disdainful. Since Xu Han had reached this level, it meant that he was at the end of his rope.

Thinking of this, Zhu Longqi wanted to bully him again, but at this time, Xu Han's eyes, who had just stabilized his body, turned cold. His right arm wrapped in white cloth waved again and another cold light flew out.

Compared to just now, the speed and strength of this cold light was several points stronger.

Seeing this, Zhu Longqi hurriedly raised his saber to block, but even though he had already set up his stance, the dagger that flew over did not land on his body, but flew towards his face.

Deviated?

Zhu Longqi was stunned for a moment before he regained his senses. This Xu Han was truly interesting. In a good tournament, it was fine if he used a hidden weapon. However, he was still not on target. After today, Xu Han would probably become the laughingstock of the Great Zhou's Jianghu, right?

When he thought of this, his heart was filled with indescribable joy. He looked at Xu Han, who no longer seemed to have the strength to fight, and was about to say something.

Ah!

However, at this moment, a miserable scream came from behind him, and a genuine smile suddenly appeared on Xu Han's face.

Zhu Longqi's heart trembled. He was somewhat uneasy. He hurriedly turned around and saw that Lin Kai, who was holding his bloody right hand by the side of the arena, was lying on the ground, wailing endlessly.

"Ai, I'm sorry, accidentally injured." Xu Han stood up, and there was no trace of the tragic expression on his face that he had been forced into a desperate situation. He looked at Lin Kai to the end, but there was no trace of guilt on his face. "I told you, this month is full of misfortune and misfortune. Look, I'm afraid that Young Master Lin will not be involved in today's engagement."

"You!" Zhu Longqi finally came to his senses. From the beginning, Xu Han didn't think of fighting him. Instead, he was looking for an opportunity to injure Lin Kai so that he wouldn't be able to get engaged to Fang Ziyu today.

After all, Lin Kai was the eldest son of the Azure Dragon Tribe's Imperial Envoy, Lin Li. If something unexpected happened to him, even if he was Zhu Xian's son, Zhu Longqi wouldn't be able to explain himself. He couldn't care less about fighting Xu Han. He looked at the soldiers who were still in a daze and shouted, "What are you waiting for? Hurry and find someone to show Young Master Lin's injuries!"

When the soldiers heard this, they came to their senses. One of them stepped forward to help Lin Kai, who was screaming miserably, while the other began to search for a doctor.

However, the physicians accompanying them did not rush here, At this moment, it would probably take an hour to call him. Lin Kai's palm was almost cut off by Xu Han's dagger. Blood flowed everywhere. The situation was not optimistic. By the time the doctor arrived, it would probably be too late. As for the big shot accompanying him, he had other plans. He was unwilling to be a gentleman. Naturally, these minions didn't dare to be so arrogant.

Seeing Lin Kai's face gradually turn pale, the soldiers panicked.

Right at this moment, an armored soldier suddenly saw Qin Keqing dressed in the clothes of a disciple of the Xuanhe Peak beside the arena. His eyes lit up and he didn't care about anything else. He reached out and grabbed Qin Keqing and said, "What are you dumbfounded about? Take a look for Young Master! If there's anything good or bad."

Perhaps it was because of the anxiety in his heart, or perhaps it was because the Long Night Division was used to this arrogant and domineering life. He pulled Qin Keqing, who had yet to regain her senses, to lose her center of gravity and fell straight to the ground.

"You!" Seeing this, Xu Han frowned and was about to get angry.

But at that moment, a cold light suddenly lit up, like the first ray of sunlight in the horizon at the end of the night, dazzling and scorching hot.

It swiftly and hurriedly swept through the eyes of the soldier. The soldier's eyes blurred as he saw the hand that he had extended descend from his wrist.

Pu.

A soft sound rang out.

The palm landed on the ground. There was a splashing of dust.

Jia Shi's body paused. He hadn't received the intense pain from his severed arm yet, and fresh blood had already sprayed out from the wound.

"Ah!!!" Screams of horror and misery that resembled seeing a ghost in the daytime finally came from the mouth of that soldier. The surrounding people were also unable to imagine how a good duel would turn into such a bloody scene. However, they were deeply shocked. There was not a single sound in their mouths and they could only stare blankly at this scene.

The stage fell silent.

Only a young man dressed in white took a step forward and walked to Qin Keqing, who had fallen, and reached out to help the girl who was still in a daze up.

Then, the pale-faced youth looked at the screaming soldier with disgust and spat out a cold word.

"This is not a place where your Longevity Division can act wildly."

At this moment, the cold light that shocked everyone flew in front of him and disappeared into his sleeve.

At this moment, someone finally saw clearly that the cold light seemed to be a flying sword.

Some of the soldiers stepped forward to press down on the broken-armed soldier, while others drew their sabers and walked over to the young man. Their expressions were alert and their killing intent was cold.

"Thank you, Big Brother Zhou." Qin Keqing said to the young man with a pale face. Such a scene was too bloody for the girl.

"No problem." The man smiled and signaled Qin Keqing to walk behind him, while he stared straight at the murderous soldiers.

"Everyone, do you want to make a move?" The man asked without the slightest bit of fear in his eyes. Instead, there was a hint of an inexplicable smile on his face.

It was as if a wolf that hadn't eaten meat for a long time had finally seen its fat prey.

The smile was ferocious and ferocious, but it was also wrapped in a narrow calm.

An inconspicuous figure in the dark armor saw the man's sword move clearly. A cold light shone in his eyes. He took a step forward, but he seemed to hesitate. He suddenly stopped. He did not choose to make a move at the first moment. Instead, he silently stood aside and watched the change.

These soldiers from the Longevity Division had never been provoked like this. From the Shepherd King Sect of the Extreme Mortal Minister to the intertwined Tiance Prefecture, the things that could contend with them had been destroyed in their hands one after another over the years. They were accustomed to the awe-inspiring gazes of the world, and this man's provocation fell into their eyes, causing them to appear so inconceivable and reckless at this moment.

Clang!

A crisp sound rang out. Without further ado, the long saber was unsheathed.

The reputation of the Longevity Division had always depended on the accumulation of flesh and blood, and this man in front of him would soon become one of the thousands of cornerstones.

..

Zhu Longqi looked at the two sides who were at loggerheads and frowned. The purpose of his trip was to obtain cooperation with the Exquisite Pavilion and establish his prestige in these Jianghu Grasslands. However, he did not want his plan to run into obstacles before it even started. Even with his calm temperament, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious at this moment.

Although he hated the man who suddenly attacked, this was clearly not a good time for swords to meet swords. After all, this was related to the long-term cooperation between the Linglong Pavilion and the Longevity Division.

Therefore, he suppressed the anger in his heart and walked to the edge of the arena. He looked at the white-clothed man with calm eyes and opened his mouth to say something.

However, before he could utter a word, his foot landed fiercely on his back. Zhu Longqi's body staggered unexpectedly, and he actually fell outside the arena.

The posture of falling on his back naturally meant that he could not be said to have any grace, nor could he avoid being stained with the gravel all over his body. When he got up in a sorry state, he looked behind him angrily.

However, he saw the youth with a white cloth wrapped in his right arm standing at his position just now, carrying a sword in one hand and his sleeves fluttering in the air, looking down at him condescendingly.

His appearance was rather young and talented, and it was rare for him to encounter the loneliness of an opponent.

Then, the youth opened his mouth and said with great regret.

"You lost."
