The Glass Maiden (Love and Redemption) - v3 Chapter 81
Chapter 81 Conference (3)
“Little Junior Sister, do you still remember the great brother practicing sword with you when you were young?” Du Minxing suddenly whispered. He didn’t draw out any weapons, let alone any moves, but stood quietly opposite, smiling, as if he was not here to compete, but just to chat with her.
Xuanji couldn’t help but think of the obscure things in her childhood. At that time, her father was very angry at her not seeking to be motivated. He and his mother were busy instructing Linglong again. No one would pay attention to her. Only the senior brother would come to accompany her to make tricks. No matter how many times the sword in her hand was dropped, and no matter how lazy she was, Du Minxing always smiled and chanted, not angry, and comforted.
Frankly speaking, his gentle attitude is really not a good teacher. In the end, when she went to Xiaoyangfeng, she still knew nothing and had to learn from the beginning. But only him was the only warm “color” in her childhood. No one took her Chu Xuanji seriously. Even father and mother had only Linglong in their eyes. Let her realize that Chu Xuanji’s existence is also very important, he is alone.
Thinking of this, Xuanji couldn’t help feeling warmth in her heart, put down Bengyu, and said softly: “I will never forget it in my life, big brother, you have always been nice to me.”
Du Minxing whispered: “I am really not good to you. I am also a very selfish person. I have neglected you for my own practice. Now you have finally become a talent and stand on the same arena with me, big brother. I felt relieved and regretted.”
Xuanji murmured: “Big brother…I, I have been thinking of you, why have you ignored me recently?”
Du Minxing smiled and did not answer. Jiang Daochang on the side reminded in a deep voice: “The test has already begun, don’t talk anymore!”
Du Minxing drew out his sword, and said, “Little Junior Sister, it’s starting.” As soon as the voice fell, the sword was changed and it was delivered to her door. This is the first move in Yaohua’s swordsmanship, unremarkable. Xuanji easily blocked it, and subconsciously handed out the second move. The tip of the sword drew towards his shoulder, Du Minxing turned and let it pass, his clothes raised, and the tip of the sword gently pierced her wrist—the third move.
Compared with the fierce competition on the other three arenas, Xuanji’s side is simply a gentle exchange of swordsmanship, practicing a set of Yaohua swordsmanship from beginning to end, and then from end to beginning. It was also the first time Jiang Daochang saw this kind of competition. If he fought it, he didn’t fight. However, he said that they didn’t fight. He sighed secretly, wondering what the two children were thinking about, and what they thought of the hairpin meeting.
When Yaohua’s swordsmanship was demolished for the third time, Du Minxing suddenly said in a solemn voice: “Be careful!” His sword moves changed abruptly, swiping a few times, like a snake, and suddenly became sharp and took Xuanji’s. Vital. There is no murderous sword move, he is testing her strength! Xuanji stepped back a few steps, didn’t intend to hit him hard, but his sword moves were entangled, so I meant that I would not stop if you didn’t make a move.
She had no choice but to raise Bengyu to slash, make a fake move, and jump back. Unexpectedly, his sword moves would not retreat, Xuanji slowed down, and only heard a “stab” sound, half of her sleeves were cut open by him, and most of her white arms came out immediately. Both of them were taken aback. They only heard the huge noise from the surrounding wooden stairs. The exquisite and crisp voice screamed loudest: “Cheating, cheating! Big brother, how can you tear someone’s clothes?!”
Du Minxing’s face was red, and he closed his sword and said, “Little Junior Sister, I didn’t mean it. Are you okay?”
Xuanji shook her head, **** the broken sleeves again, and smiled: “It’s okay, go ahead.”
Dao Chang Jiang had already been choked by them, and immediately said loudly: “Attention, you two! This is a hairpin conference, not your own martial arts field! Don’t make a fuss!”
The two of them had to regain their spirits and start again. When it comes to swordsmanship, the two Xuanji would not be Du Minxing’s opponents. He had obviously yielded to each other before. After using his true skills, Xuanji could only parry. She could never use her ability to deal with enemies to deal with Du Minxing. Seeing him step by step, she had already retreated to the edge of the high platform and had nowhere to go. Xuanji hesitated whether to admit defeat, and suddenly saw a flash of cold light before her eyes, and the sword in his hand struck her neck mercilessly.
If she doesn’t resist, she will be worried about her life; if she avoids… then she will only have to jump off the platform. Between the sparks and flints, she suddenly made up her mind to give in. With a little toe, she actually jumped backwards, planning to jump off the stone pillar. Unexpectedly, the Bengyu in his hand trembled violently and made a clear cry, which was very encouraging.
She already felt the coolness of the blade on her chin, and Xuanji raised her hand subconsciously. With a click, Du Minxing’s sword was cut off by her. Both of them were stunned at that moment. Du Minxing’s face turned pale, and he raised his hand to throw the broken saber on the ground, stepped back two steps, and arched his hands: “Little Junior Sister, accept. I lost.”
“Ah…” Xuanji opened her mouth blankly, still not reacting.
How did she win? Just won? Inexplicably… She wanted to admit defeat! How could he cut off his saber?
Seeing Du Minxing’s sword flying under the stone pillar, she hurriedly shouted: “Big brother! I…I don’t…”
Du Minxing had already explored half of his body and went out. When he heard her yelling, he turned his head and smiled at her, waved softly: “You have become so powerful now, you will never be bullied again. Senior brother is very happy in his heart.” After finishing, never looking back, Yu Jian flew down. Xuanji caught up with him a few steps, only to see his blue figure swayed and fell to the ground.
Who said he wouldn’t let her? In the end, isn’t he making her? Xuanzhen stunned and followed the stone pillar, exhilarating Linglong had already waited below, hugged her, and cheered. Yu Sifeng walked behind, and when he saw Xuanji looking over, he smiled and arched his hands to her to congratulate her.
“I… I feel that I won inexplicably.” Afterwards, Xuan Ji murmured, “Obviously the big brother won the move. I don’t know how to do it. I just blocked it, and his sword actually broke. . From the point of view of the moves, I simply lost…”
Linglong has always helped her relatives, pouting, “Why do you want so much! Anyway, you won! If you are not convinced, you will use your real effort in tomorrow’s competition to calm them!”
Xuanji whispered: “I… have been using my real skills.”
Where did Linglong listen to what she said, she had long been pushing her into the Shaoyang Sect crowd, talking and laughing. Du Minxing bowed his head and said something to Chu Lei, turned around and looked at Xuanji, before leaving silently. Xuan Ji stared at his back with blank eyes, and suddenly felt an uncomfortable feeling in her heart. She didn’t understand why.
Chu Lei came over and said, “Xuanji, you won the first game. Don’t take it lightly, there are still several games behind.”
Xuanji whispered: “Daddy, it’s the big brother who is letting me. It’s not glorious for me to win.”
Linglong said anxiously: “Why are you a girl?! If you don’t have the ability, can you cut off his saber? You just call someone to see if you can cut off the saber at will?”
Chu Lei said warmly: “You don’t have to think so much, Min Xing just said that, he used housekeeping skills, but failed to subdue you within fifty moves. Your progress made him very surprised, and the last move was actually paid. Being able to give birth to an iron sword shows that you were giving in before. You are so, how can you be embarrassed to let him be a senior?”
Xuan Ji had nothing to say, and finally nodded and admitted that she had won a game.
“Don’t leave in a hurry, stay and see the other disciples’ competition. Don’t underestimate the enemy.” Chu Lei asked, and left. He was the judge who ended the Eastern Ring.
When Yu Sifeng saw Xuanji sitting alone at the back, so many young disciples of the Yang school in front were talking and laughing. She seemed to be not listening, absent-minded, and could not help but sit quietly next to her, holding her hand, and whispered. : “What are you thinking about?”
Xuanji said lightly: “Big brother must have prepared a lot for the hairpin conference, but because he collided with me, all his hard work was wasted.”
Yu Sifeng smiled and said, “It makes sense. But it’s not because you won, but because you don’t respect him too much.”
Xuan Ji said strangely: “How can I disrespect him?”
“This is a formal contest, not a child’s play. But you are reluctant to take him seriously from start to finish, and give in everywhere. In this case, what’s the point of his winning? Doesn’t it make everyone laugh? Master Zeng I have said that even in a martial arts contest, you must respect your opponent. The so-called respect is to use all your skills to compete. In a martial arts contest, unnecessary concession is the greatest disrespect for the opponent.”
It was the first time that Xuanji heard this kind of argument. She couldn’t help being stunned. After a long while, she said: “Big brother is because I let him, so I would rather give up?”
Yu Sifeng patted her head and said, “Since the matter is over, it is meaningless to be entangled in it. There will be competitions in the future. You have to use your housekeeping skills, understand?”
Xuanji “touched” her nose, and whispered: “The housekeeping skills…is it talking about snakes?”
Yu Sifeng was taken aback for a moment. Both of them thought of something. Looking back, they saw Teng Snake sitting on the railing of the wooden building, eating and chewing like no one else. He laughed and said in a low voice: “Yes, you let him out. Everyone will bow down to the wind just because of the hard work.”
Xuanji finally chuckled with his amusement. Linglong heard her laugh, hurriedly approached, and repeatedly asked: “What? Is it fun? What are you laughing at?”
While talking, Chu Lei had already entered the Oriental Ring. This competition was between the disciples of Dianjinggu and Lize Palace. Linglong saw that the disciple of Lize Palace standing on the ring was tall, wearing a half-new white robe, and his long hair was not tied, letting them draped in a mess under his waist, looking very He was eclectic and couldn’t help but leaned over to ask Yu Sifeng, “Hey, who is this person? Is he good?”
Yu Sifeng watched intently for a while, then shook his head and said, “I haven’t seen this person either.” Strange, is there such a person among the young disciples of Lize Palace? According to the rules, young disciples must wear green robes and hang various “color” signs on their waists. This person wore white clothes, and there was no brand around his waist. Except for the Shura mask on his face, he did not look like a person from Lize Palace.
He looked towards the place where the disciples of Lize Palace concentrated. The two palace masters and vice lords were sitting on the high platform in front of the wooden building, with a leisurely posture, and he didn’t care much about the person’s dress.
With an order from Chu Lei, the contest between the two disciples began. Everyone saw that the two disciples’ tactics were mediocre, and there was nothing special about them. After watching them for a while, they became impatient and each joked. Linglong was jokingly gesturing to the scene of the last hairpin meeting, and suddenly listened to Tingnu whispering: “No! That person is in danger!”
Everyone was taken aback, followed by a loud “bang” on the eastern ring, like something exploded, and the dust filled the dust. In the heavy dust, there was a vague behemoth about to move, and suddenly stretched his body. Standing upside down, breaking through the dust and fog, the bright red scales shone in the sunlight.
It’s a giant python!
“Whose spirit beast?! What a big guy!” Zhong Minyan was so surprised that he almost lost his voice. Yu Sifeng stood up abruptly and stared closely at the movement on the ring, only to see the bright red giant python shaking its head and tail, and a dozen people stood up so high. Snakes are animals that like shade, especially this kind of spirit beasts. They can’t stand the direct sunlight. Obviously, this giant python is very uncomfortable under the bright sun. He opened his mouth in a bloodbath savagely. Ya Senran glowed, and Xinzi jumped “randomly”, extremely restless.
The dust and mist on the ring gradually dispersed, and the surrounding noise gradually subsided. The eyes of everyone on the court were staring there, and the disciple Lize Palace raised his hands in a weird posture, his fingers undulating like waves, sharp tunes in his mouth, and the python behind him followed him. His tunes and gestures danced slowly, and a pair of golden eyes stared at the disciple of Dotting Valley opposite—the poor man was already so scared that he sat on the ground and couldn’t move.
The man from Lize Palace suddenly rubbed his fingers, and the whistle became harsh. Yu Sifeng said in shock: “He wants the spirit beast to attack! That person will die!” As soon as the voice fell, he saw that the giant python raised its inverted triangle head high and rushed down like lightning. Its wide open mouth can be easily done. Swallow the man in Dotting Valley.
Everyone screamed, but it was too late to be rescued. Between the sparks and flints, Chu Lei shouted loudly. After a few times, he quickly stood in front of the disciple of Dianjinggu, and said sharply: “Back! Don’t hurt people’s lives!”
