The Two-Faced Side Character Fantasizes that I Love Him Everyday - Chapter 207
Chapter 207 Rumors
“Chu Hanfeng actually left Boundless City?”
It was early in the morning. Hearing the news from Tang Ling, Wen Ran asked in surprise.
Tang Ling led people to the direction of Huazong, nodded and said: “According to the news from Xuezong’s disciples, it is like this.”
Although Shen Wu had never seen Chu Hanfeng, he had also heard of this person’s deeds, “I heard that City Lord Chu once swore that he would never take a step outside the Boundless City.”
“Yes.” Wen Ran was also surprised, “What is the reason for him to make an exception?”
Tang Ling shook his head, “I don’t know about this.”
Although Xuezong’s people are very good at inquiring about news, they are not omniscient after all. They really can’t find out what that person is thinking.
Wen Ran touched her chin and said, “There are only a few reasons why people can break the rules, one is profit and the other is love.”
Shen Wu looked at Wen Ran with unexpected emotions in his eyes. He never knew that Wen Ran would be so sensitive before.
Tang Ling was also interested, “Miss Wen, what reason do you think City Lord Chu can break the rules?”
“I have only had a relationship with City Lord Chu once, and I can’t speak of understanding, but I think he should not be a person who pursues fame and fortune.”
Tang Ling said: “That’s for love?”
Wen Ran said: “I just don’t know if it’s kindness or family affection, or other friendships, love, or maybe I owe someone else’s favor… I’m all guessing, but I can’t guarantee that what I said is right.”
Tang Ling said excitedly: “But I think your guess is very reasonable! Right, Senior Brother Shen?”
Shen Wu nodded slightly, “Not bad.”
What he didn’t say was that Wen Ran’s guesses coincided with the thoughts in his heart. This strange feeling of harmony made him dazed for a moment.
Tang Ling added: “I heard that City Lord Chu went out of the city this time to go to the demons. Now it is estimated that the demons who are wandering in the world will be terrified when they hear his name. However, what is the purpose of City Lord Chu? What are you going to target the demons?”
The expressions of Shen Wu and Wen Ran changed slightly, and then, after realizing that the other party seemed to be thinking the same thing, they looked at each other.
But Wen Ran quickly withdrew his gaze.
Shen Wu also kept silent.
Tang Ling looked at Shen Wu and Wen Ran strangely, not understanding how the atmosphere became a little weird.
Regarding Chu Hanfeng leaving the city and looking for trouble with the demons, Wen Ran cannot be blamed for thinking too much, because at this point in time, Qin Susu was captured by the demons.
But thinking about it, it doesn’t seem right.
Qin Susu has never entered the Northern Territory, and Chu Hanfeng has never stepped out of the Northern Territory for so many years. How could the two be connected?
Wen Ran quietly glanced at Shen Wu’s contemplative profile, she had an intuition, Shen Wu must be thinking the same thing.
The moment he stepped into the realm of the Huazong, the purple and bright red fell into the eyes of people. The eyes were full of flowers, which made people think that they had stepped into a fairyland.
A disciple of Huazong was waiting by the side, “The sect master has explained that we will receive guests, so I won’t bother Miss Tang to lead the way.”
The person who spoke was a young woman who was even brighter than that full of flowers. Because she was too bright, she looked a bit domineering, like a rose. Beauty is beautiful, but unfortunately it has thorns.
Tang Ling replied without a good face: “Yu Xiaoxiao, these two are distinguished guests, you have to entertain them.”
Yu Xiaoxiao smiled but said, “It won’t bother you anymore.”
Long ago, Tang Ling and Qi Buyu explained the delicate situation in the world of knowledge, because four years ago, the disciple of Yuezong won the competition, so the big sect master was Tang Wujue.
Now that the four-year period has dropped, a new round of competition is about to begin. The disciples of each sect are eager to move, and the relationship is even more tense than before. In the past, the competition between Fengzong, Huazong and Yuezong has always been the most fierce. It is said that this is the Song Qipa from Nian Xuezong will also participate, but the result is even more difficult to guess.
The four sect disciples are secretly competing.
Wen Ran once asked curiously, “Did your ancestors set the rules for this four-year competition?”
“Yeah.” Tang Ling explained, “Fengzong is good at using the power of the wind, Huazong is good at magic, Xuezong is good at swordsmanship, Yuezong is good at swordsmanship, when the ancestors let the disciples in the sect according to their own heaven. Dividing into four schools is to allow the disciples to find a way to cultivate that is suitable for them, but they should not rest on their laurels. There is a rule of competition every four years. Perhaps the intention of the ancestors is to let each other learn from each other. After so many years, this competition has gradually changed its taste.”
In the long run, it is difficult to say that the world of knowledge will not fall apart because of infighting.
But Wen Ran is an outsider, so it’s not good to talk about things in other people’s sects like this, she just feels a little pity, the world of knowledge is a holy place in the minds of thousands of cultivators, how can she think that there are so many unstable factors behind it?
Tang Ling sent Wen Ran and Shen Wu to Huazong and left, and Huazong’s disciples led them forward.
Wen Ran could feel that several disciples were looking at her with curious eyes. She could guess that it was because of her mother without thinking too much.
There are rumors about Helianqing and Fairy Kangyue, the sect master of Huazong, and they have a deep influence.
When he arrived at a peach blossom forest, Yu Xiaoxiao stopped, “The sect master said that he saw Miss Wen alone, and asked Young Master Shen to wait here.”
Shen Wu frowned, “I beg your pardon, girl, Junior Sister has been following me, I can’t let Junior Sister walk around alone.”
Yu Xiaoxiao said: “What is there to worry about, Young Master Shen? Our Sect Master is not a bad person. The Sect Master has been happy all these years and has never seen outsiders. This time it is an exception to see Miss Wen.”
These words came out with thorns, as if Helianqing wanted to see Wen Ran, it was a great honor for Wen Ran.
On the way here, Tang Ling mentioned this Yu Xiaoxiao. She is the elder sister of Huazong. Although she is young, she managed Huazong in an orderly manner when Helian ignored her affairs. In the four competitions, she is definitely going to replace Hua Zong.
Yu Xiaoxiao is indeed capable, but she has a bad temper and always speaks with a gun and a stick.
Shen Wu’s eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice became a little colder, “Since I’m here with my junior sister, naturally I should go there together.”
Yu Xiaoxiao folded her arms, glanced up and down at Shen Wu, raised her eyebrows, and said sarcastically, “Suwen Deng Xianfu’s senior brother is the most self-denying and respectful, and respects the teacher. Now he is here as a guest, but he does not take the words of the master here. Looking at it, it can be seen that this rumor is not very reliable.”
Shen Wudao: “I heard that the sect of literate flowers loves and cherishes flowers, respects the beauty of life in the world, and treats ants with gentleness. Now it seems that rumors are just rumors after all.”
