C364 Secret Meeting
C364 Secret Meeting
"As the saying goes, a tree that stands out from the forest will be destroyed by the wind. His arrogant character naturally angered many big shots, but they were all protected by that old monster of Yang family. In the end, he was sentenced to three years of confinement. Only then did he quell the anger of the public."
"Not long ago, this guy was released from confinement. After he came out, his flamboyant personality changed. However, he also became irritable and easily angered. My brother merely had some conflict with him at the corner of his mouth. He was beaten into a half-cripple by him."
"If it wasn't for the fact that my Lan family has superb medical skills, I'm afraid that my brother's path of cultivation would have been destroyed by him. However, he still left behind his inner demon, which prevented him from breaking through to the Third Stage. That's why he needs the help of the Barrier Breaking Pill."
After a few sentences, Yang Xuan explained the whole situation. Although Lan Fenghuang had roughly explained it, Yang Xuan still understood what she said.
One. A genius who had been imprisoned for three years...
There was a flash of light in his eyes as he moved closer to Lan Fenghuang and whispered something to her...
After an hour, Yang Xuan called a few officials in. At this moment, he was the only one left in the hall. While the officials were still wondering where Lan Fenghuang was, Yang Xuan had already told them with a serious face. They were not allowed to tell anyone about Lan Fenghuang's arrival today.
Since Lan Fenghuang had also concealed her tracks when she came over previously, this matter was temporarily covered up by Yang Xuan.
However, this matter could not be hidden from some people, such as the master of State Hall, Zhou Fengyuan.
Looking at Liao Fan who had just finished his report, Zhou Fengyuan slowly nodded his head and revealed a trace of a smile at the corner of his mouth.
"This is really interesting. This kid almost got the Lan family and the Tang Sect into a fight on the first day he came to the capital. He even secretly met the young lady of the Lan family..."
Although he did not know what exactly Yang Xuan and Lan Fenghuang had said, Zhou Fengyuan could imagine that there was an incomparably cunning soul beneath this seemingly honest and honest appearance.
After pondering for a moment, Zhou Fengyuan knocked on the table again and looked at Liao Fan with some dissatisfaction.
"By the way, tell Second Brother not to pretend anymore. He came to the capital to see me before he was ugly tonight. If he is late, I will make him suffer."
Liao Fan's body trembled and immediately bent down. He said respectfully, "Yes, sir."
At the same time, in a famous pavilion in the capital, a little girl was leaning against the pavilion, holding a glowing jade pendant in her hand.
Half of this jade pendant was missing. It could be clearly seen that the other part had been forcefully broken by someone using brute force.
This little girl was Yuh Qingcheng. Not far away from her, there was a man wearing a wide Daoist robe meditating in the middle of the lake. In front of him was a slender fishing rod.
Although it was in the middle of the lake, the man's back was not wet by the lake water at all. If one looked closely, one could immediately tell that the man was floating on the surface of the water.
After looking at the jade pendant in her hand for a long time, Yuh Qingcheng stood up, turned around and shouted to the man, "Master, there is a reaction from my Spiritual Jade Pendant. That fool has come to the capital!"
The man did not even open his eyes as he replied faintly, "Are you so sure that he is looking for you?"
Yuh Qingcheng pouted unhappily, "Of course. That fool may have other things to do, but he must come to me for proper business."
The man finally opened his eyes and shook his head helplessly, "I think he almost forgot about your existence."
This man was obviously the Prime Minister, Xu Ruxian, who stomped his foot on the ground and shook the entire Great Wei.
After hearing his words, Yuh Qingcheng became anxious. She stomped her feet in dissatisfaction and said, "Master, you are talking nonsense. That fool is not such a person! Even if he forgets who, he will never forget me!"
"Is that really so?" Xu Ruxian slowly stood up from the surface of the lake. He looked at Yuh Qingcheng with a pair of deep eyes and said, "If that is what you think in your heart, you will not leave a clone here to deceive me."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Ruxian extended a finger and gently pointed at Yuh Qingcheng. Then a ball of light flew towards Yuh Qingcheng slowly.
Yuh Qingcheng revealed a trace of shock on her face, but immediately felt relieved. She already knew that this little trick wouldn't be able to trick her astute master.
When the light touched Yuh Qingcheng, her entire body shrunk in an instant. In the end, she turned into a small piece of paper and gently floated in the air, landing in the pavilion.
"You little girl, you are a ghost spirit. All day long, you have a lot of evil intentions. You actually dare to lie to master!"
Xu Ruxian shook his head helplessly. His eyes were full of pampering. He was tolerant of his disciple no matter what he did.
At the same time, in the capital, an exquisite little girl was walking on the street. She held a candied gourd in her hand and was chewing on it. It was Yuh Qingcheng herself.
Her heart suddenly skipped a beat. Something seemed to have broken, and she froze on the spot.
"Not good! I was discovered by my master so quickly. I thought I could play with him for a few more hours! Looks like I have to find that fool right now."
She muttered to herself, then threw away the candied gourd in her hand and sped up her footsteps.
Yang Xuan, who was still at the station, naturally did not know that Yuh Qingcheng had come to find him. He was still quietly meditating in his small courtyard.
Counting the time, the Yang family of Qingzhou would arrive in the capital the day after tomorrow. It was also just in time for the Family Competition.
Before they arrived, Yang Xuan already knew who his opponent was.
The genius who had been hiding in the main family for three years, Yang Xinyi.
From Lan Fenghuang's words, he already knew all kinds of things about this genius. For a moment, he couldn't help but feel a little scared.
They were both at the Fusion Stage, could he really compare himself with this genius who had been raised by countless Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures since young?
For a moment, he didn't have any confidence in himself, so he could only cultivate even harder, trying to break through the Dragon Soul Spell.
A day passed very quickly. Just like that, he meditated in the small courtyard, entering a state where he had forgotten everything.
However, in the evening, people came knocking on his door one after another.
The first to arrive was of course Zhou Fengmiao. He knew very well where Yang Xuan was. Without any detours, he went straight to the station.
Seeing Yang Xuan working very hard in the courtyard, Zhou Fengmiao's originally gloomy face couldn't help but reveal a trace of a smile.
"Yo, you are quite diligent. You know that the Family Competition is tomorrow, right?"
Hearing his voice, Yang Xuan opened his eyes and said in surprise, "General Zhou, why are you here? I thought we would meet again tomorrow!"
"Of course I'm here. Yang family invited my elder brother to judge, but my elder brother has a lot of things to attend to, so he just let me go."
"So you are the judge tomorrow?"
After learning about this news, Yang Xuan became excited in his heart.
In fact, he was very worried about the judge of the main family. After all, this was their territory. If they wanted to do something, he could not do anything about it.
Now, it seemed like the main family hadn't violated the rules and invited the people of State Hall to supervise them.
Especially since this person was Zhou Fengmiao, whom he was familiar with. Yang Xuan suddenly felt somewhat confident in his heart.
Of course, he wouldn't want Zhou Fengmiao to side with him in the competition, but with his presence, at least there wouldn't be any shady incidents in the competition.
Zhou Fengmiao nodded, as if he was very proud of this matter. He said to Yang Xuan, "I know that the family of Yang family is more important than you, so I asked my elder brother for help. Let him meet you after the contest."
"What you need to do now is to prepare for the competition with all your might. I will be present in every match of yours, and perform well!"
After saying that, Zhou Fengmiao walked to Yang Xuan and patted his shoulder. He encouraged Yang Xuan a little more before he left the station with his hands behind his back.
Zhou Fengmiao's arrival had undoubtedly given Yang Xuan a shot in the heart. The confidence in his heart was burning again.
However, not long after he started meditating again, there was a sudden noise outside, making Yang Xuan slightly frown.
Why were the officials outside so insensible? He had already told them to be absolutely quiet. Why were there still people making trouble outside?
Feeling irritated, Yang Xuan suppressed his temper and walked out of the yard, coming to the main hall from behind.
At this moment, a beggar was scolding a few officials with a face full of indignation. He looked like a god, and the officials were stunned. They did not dare to say anything for a moment.
Yang Xuan looked carefully. This beggar was the same old beggar he had met when he first came here. He was the one who took his spirit stone and asked questions.
The moment he saw Yang Xuan walk out, the old beggar immediately stopped reprimanding him. He pointed at Yang Xuan and said proudly, "You see, I have already said that he is my brother. You still don't believe me?! This time, my brother came out when he heard my voice! "
Yang Xuan was a little confused when he said this. He frowned slightly and looked at the few officials beside him. He looked dignified without being angry.
"What's going on?"
The hall was instantly filled with a terrifying pressure. The officials' heads were immediately covered with sweat. They hurriedly ran to Yang Xuan and said respectfully.
"Lieutenant Yang, this guy kept saying that he is your brother and insisted on asking for your help. Of course, we can't let him in. Just as we were about to call someone to deal with him, you came out."
After listening to him talk about what had happened, Yang Xuan relaxed his brows and turned to look at the old beggar.
"If you want my help, why should I help you?"
The old beggar's indifferent tone pierced his heart. His legs immediately went soft and he knelt down towards Yang Xuan.
"Brother, please save me. I really have no other choice. I can only come and find you!"
He did not hear the anger in Yang Xuan's tone at all. He just kowtowed and begged. Two lines of dirty tears even flowed out of the corner of his eyes.
