Chapter 863: Disdainful (1)
Upon hearing this, Xia qingchen couldn’t help but laugh.
It seemed that the reason why Commandery Princess yanyu had summoned him was to kill him. She wanted to take the heavenly fire and then execute him.
It was only because he could suppress the cold ice lady’s body that the princess changed her mind.
last time, I thought you were going to stay in the mansion and be used as fertilizer. I didn’t expect you to come out alive. You should really thank the G.o.ddess of luck! The maid sighed.
Xia qingchen laughed in a disapproving manner.
Luck G.o.ddess?
Wasn’t that the girl who had always wanted to be his concubine but had been rejected by him time and time again?
Since when did he need to rely on this little girl’s care?
With a light laugh, Xia qingchen followed the serving girl into the courtyard.
He saw a group of people talking in low voices in the courtyard, and their expressions were filled with excitement.
“Princess, are you really going to reward us with a Yuan opening pill?”
“It’s true! The princess has already made an announcement in the hall of eccentrics.”
hahaha, that’s a great thing for us proud sons of heaven who continue to break through to the major star position!
“Wake up! There’s only one Yuan opening pill, and it’s obviously prepared for crazy sword’s disciple.”
“AI! That’s true! Mad swordsman’s disciple is not even 20 years old, but he has already been stuck at the ninth transformation of the medium star level for an entire year. Who else can I give this pill to if not him?”
At the very front of the crowd, crazy sword and a young man stood with their hands behind their backs.
Mad sword shook his head and looked calm. The people around him were in awe of him.
The ferocious-looking young man with nine scars on his face was his disciple, Jian Jiu!
It was said that he was proficient in a lost sword technique, which used his body as a scabbard to store invisible sword Qi.
The moment he attacked, a cold sword Qi was released. It was extremely strange.
Few people in the same generation could match him.
“Master, who are we waiting for?” Sword nine frowned impatiently. His slight movement touched the scar on his face, making his face look even fiercer.
Mad sword chuckled and said in an unfriendly tone, “”Who else could it be? Of course, it’s Xia qingchen, who’s currently very famous.”
Princess yanyu had already spread the news that Xia qingchen had joined the hall of wonders half a year ago and was one of their members.
“The mediocrity of the military Palace also accompanied me in waiting.” Sword nine said in disdain.
When he said this, Xia qingchen had already entered the courtyard.
When he heard this, he only smiled.
Do G.o.ds need to listen to the words of ants?
Xia qingchen is here!
so that’s Xia qingchen. He’s as young as the rumors say.
“He should be the youngest Wan Xiaoqi in the military Palace, right?”
The crowd whispered to each other as they sized up the most popular person in Liangzhou city.
Swordsman nine crossed his arms in front of his chest, his gaze looking forward. He clearly knew that Xia qingchen was here, but he didn’t turn back to look.
That disdain couldn’t be any thicker.
On the other hand, crazy sword turned his head and looked over, his old eyes filled with disgust. “Oh? The swordsmen from the sword burial pool are here?”
The ridicule in his words couldn’t be any more obvious.
That day, under his repeated requests, he finally chased Xia qingchen away, and it was very satisfying.
Xia qingchen slowly walked over, stepping on the fallen cherry blossoms on the ground. He said lightly, ” I’ve heard that the sword Saint of dusk defeated you in one move. I’m not the one who’s here to make up the numbers.
A crazed look immediately appeared on madman sword’s face as he rebuked loudly, “”Little brat, how can you speak to your senior like that?”
The defeat at the sword burial pool was the crazy sword’s reverse scale, and no one could say anything about it.
When he spoke, he was crazy and unreasonable, scolding at best, and hurting people at worst.
Xia qingchen shook his head. in front of me, you can’t afford to be called a senior.
The crazed sword that mad sword was so proud of was nothing more than a clown’s trick in front of him.
“Hehe, brat, why don’t you find out what my status is in the hall of wonders?” There was malice in mad sword’s cold smile.
The hall of extraordinary people was under the command of Princess yanyu, but there were different grades of extraordinary people.
A great swordsman like madman sword whose name shook the realm of cool was naturally a first-cla.s.s venerable. Together with the other seven, they were called the eight extraordinary Venerables.
Only those with moon tier strength and unparalleled wondrous techniques and abilities were qualified to be called the hall of wonders.
Mad sword was one of the eight.
If he used his madness to hurt others, Commandery Princess yanyu would turn a blind eye and would never reprimand him.
I’m fine, ” Xia qingchen said calmly. then I’d advise you to find out what my ident.i.ty is.
Mad man Jian was at most a capable general under Princess yanyu. As for Xia qingchen, he was the master of Princess yanyu’s life!
“Hehe, you’re just a junior of the military Palace, and you want to talk about status with this old man? What a joke!” Madman sword laughed.
Just as he was about to continue, sword nine said without turning his head, “”Master, why do you have to lower yourself to argue with an unknown junior? Don’t you think you’re embarra.s.sing yourself?”
Mad sword chuckled and turned away, too lazy to say anything more.
Xia qingchen mumbled to himself,’is the military Palace being looked down upon so much?’
From their words, it was as if the military Palace was rather incompetent.
“Don’t talk to me if you’re trash. You’re dirtying your ears.” Sword nine closed his eyes and said lightly.
Xia qingchen cast a glance at his back view and shook his head with a ferocious smile. “You’re thinking too much. I have no interest in talking to ants.”
He was merely mumbling to himself, yet swordnine mistakenly thought that Xia qingchen was arguing with him because he was unconvinced.
“Hehe.” Sword nine responded with a contemptuous smile and didn’t say another word.
After the two sides were silent for half a cup of tea’s time, a fragrance came from the house, and several graceful young girls came from two sides.
In the middle, a simply-dressed Commandery Princess yanyu slowly walked over.
Compared to her frivolity that day, her black hair was tied up and she was dressed in a well-trimmed white dress. She looked fresh and refined, beautiful and round.
However, her face was covered by a thin veil as usual, so only the upper half of her face could be seen.
“Greetings, Princess.” Jian Jiu suddenly opened his eyes, which were full of greed, and knelt down on one knee with the others.
However, his eyes never left Princess yanyu.
Only Xia qingchen stood on the spot with his arms crossed, not having any intention of kneeling. He appeared to be standing tall among the crowd and was extremely eye-catching.
Commandery Princess yanyu saw Xia qingchen with a single glance and didn’t blame him. She merely smiled and said, “”Rise.”
She sat in front of a field of peonies, her temperament calm and magnanimous. “Tomorrow is the day of the mysterious theory examination. Have you all prepared for the opportunity to partic.i.p.ate?”
“We’re ready,” sword nine bowed and said.
Including him, a total of ten people answered.
Xia qingchen saw this and was slightly surprised. The military Palace only had ten spots for the profound theory examination.
Commandery Princess yanyu controlled ten of them. The military Palace could not compare to her wealth of resources.
“Blue Luan, bestow me the pill.”
The maid in green brought over several brocade boxes and handed them to the nine partic.i.p.ants one by one.
When he opened it, he saw that it was filled with precious secret medicines that only the royal family had.
The nine of them were overjoyed. Although they did not obtain the yuan opening pill, their gains were still considerable.
“I still have one more Yuan opening pill.” Commandery Princess yanyu took out another wooden box. After opening it with her bare hands, a round pearl that was shining with a Pearl-like l.u.s.ter appeared.
“There’s only one of this pill, who should I give it to?” she said meaningfully.
