Zhang Xiaohua rubbed her nose and smiled, "Rejuvenation Valley's martial arts competition for a spouse doesn't need to sign up in advance and pay a registration fee?"
He seemed to have thought of Yuan Guohou and Zhou Tai.
Valley Head Nie smiled, "Of course we don't need these. However, if they come to our door and give us gifts, we can only accept them. If not, wouldn't we appear to be lacking in confidence?"
Zhang Xiaohua nodded, feeling as if she had found a soulmate.
Nie Qianyu hurriedly said from behind, "Father, it's getting late."
Valley Head Nie said apologetically, "Ren Shaoxia, you see, if we're late, it's not impossible to open a back door for you and add a stopper. However, if we kick you out in the future and break off the engagement, wouldn't it be awkward for others?
We're all smart people, so when we do things, we have to do it seamlessly. Why don't we use our qinggong to go over? "
Zhang Xiaohua cupped her hands and said, "Valley Head Nie is indeed meticulous. I had the same idea, please."
"Okay, I'll lead the way. Ren Shaoxia, please."
After speaking, Valley Head Nie didn't stand on ceremony. He tapped his foot and his body floated towards the door. His arms shook and he rushed towards the door of the villa like a white crane.
Zhang Xiaohua wasn't in a hurry. She picked up the long sword from the ground and without making any movements, her body reached the door. Then, as if her feet didn't touch the ground, she chased after him.
Behind her, Nie Qianyu also hurriedly called out, "Little Orange, quickly prepare the horse. Let's go take a look."
Valley Head Nie used his qinggong to rush towards the main door while paying attention to the back. He wanted to see just how capable this unassuming young man was.
As expected, ever since he came out of the hall, Zhang Xiaohua had been following behind him at a leisurely pace. In the beginning, Valley Head Nie only used fifty percent of his internal strength. After all, his internal strength was close to perfection and wasn't something a twenty year old youth could compare to.
But after running for a while, seeing that he couldn't shake them off, Valley Master Nie increased his speed by 85% and quickly rushed forward.
But after a while, Valley Master Nie took a look. Aiyo, this young man was still following behind him at a leisurely pace. There was less than a foot of distance between them. Valley Master Nie couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart, "Not to mention this young man's calm temperament, just his qinggong alone is enough to show disdain for heroes."
Valley Master Nie knew very well that Rejuvenation Valley's inherited martial arts were ordinary, but their qinggong was not restricted to one pattern. It was not something commonly seen, but rather something else. For Zhang Xiaohua to be able to catch up to him with eighty percent of his power, she was already an expert in qinggong in the jianghu.
Seeing that the door was close, Valley Master Nie's heart skipped a beat. He instantly raised his internal energy to 655%, wanting to see if Zhang Xiaohua could catch up.
However, when he tilted his head to look behind him, he could not help but think to himself, 'This is bad. Don't tell me I lost him?'
There was no one behind him?
But, that couldn't be. Even if he couldn't catch up to him, he should still be able to see him. Could it be?
When Valley Master Nie suddenly looked forward, sure enough, an unbelievable thing happened. That thin and tall figure had already run in front of him. In a flash, he had already left the manor!
"This!?" Valley Master Nie almost fell from the sky, "What kind of qinggong is this guy using?
He's actually so fast?
And, how did he run in front of me? "
"The most important thing is that this young man was following me calmly just now. How did he suddenly show off his power and run in front of me?
Could it be that my repeated probing angered him? "
"Sigh, young people are still young in the end. En, it's not bad to have anger. Since he's a young man, he should have anger. Little Yu's mother will definitely like this young man when she sees him."
It had to be said that the more a prospective father-in-law looked at his son-in-law, the more he liked him!!!
In front of Rejuvenation Valley, on the large arena, a young man with an arrogant face was holding a long sword. He stood at the side of the arena and his pure white robes made him look even more otherworldly.
Next to him stood an old man with grey hair and beard. It was the person that Zhang Xiaohua had mistaken for Valley Master Nie. He cupped his hands and said to the crowd below the arena, "Young heroes of the pugilistic world, this is the last day of the confirmation of the Rejuvenation Valley's marriage by martial arts competition. In another hour, it will be the last round of the arena competition. Now, Long Lin from Long Teng Sword Village has already won several rounds in a row. If no one challenges him, then Young Master Long will be the last person to obtain the qualifications for the arena competition.
I will count to ten. If no one comes up, then it will be considered Young Master Long's victory. "
At this moment, a figure jumped out from Rejuvenation Valley and quickly ran to the side of the arena. At this moment, everyone's eyes and attention were focused on the arena. Who would notice this?
The old man circulated his internal energy and loudly counted, "Ten, nine …"
The crowd below the arena had already seen Young Master Long's invincible might today. They knew that this was just a formality and no one would come up to challenge him. Thus, they all cheered and counted, "Eight, seven …"
On the arena, Young Master Long also smiled and repeatedly cupped his hands to the crowd below the arena.
Soon, the number reached "Four, three".
Then, someone shouted from the side of the arena, "No need to count anymore. Let this young master experience Young Master Long's skills."
The sound of the countdown stopped abruptly. When everyone looked over to the side, a thin and tall young man with an ordinary appearance walked over with quick steps while holding a sword base in his hand not too far away from the arena. Wasn't it precisely Zhang Xiaohua?
Zhang Xiaohua quickly walked to the front of the arena and sized it up. Then, she stabbed the long sword in her hand into the ground and flew up. She cupped her hands to the old man and said, "This one is Ren Xiaoyao. I wonder if I can challenge this Young Master Long?"
Before the old man could speak, the crowd below the arena roared with laughter. Someone shouted, "You little brat, how old are you? You're already thinking about getting married?"
"Hahaha, that's right. He's just a little brat who hasn't even grown hair yet. Why is he here to join in the fun?"
"Look at that brat. What is he wearing? He's obviously here to drink wine."
"I don't know where he came from. He wants to take advantage of this arena. Is this Rejuvenation Valley's son-in-law someone like him can think of?"
Below the stage, there were all sorts of discussions going on. However, at a spot slightly to the east, there was a person with an injured arm. Beside him, there was another person with a pale face. He opened his mouth but was unable to say anything. They exchanged glances and saw the shock in each other's eyes. After which, they softly cried out, "It's actually him?"
On the arena, Zhang Xiaohua turned a deaf ear to all the words below the arena. She only smiled and asked the old man, "Sir, do you think I can participate in the competition?"
"This?" The old man was a bit hesitant.
Indeed, this young man looked unfamiliar and wasn't someone from the southern martial arts world. Moreover, he had a young face and was younger than the third miss of the Nie family. However, when one thought of Nie Qianyu's undeveloped appearance, she was extremely compatible with this young man.
Moreover, Valley Master Nie didn't set any lower age limit for the martial arts competition. He only said that it had to be a hero under the age of twenty. This young man should meet the requirements.
However, the competition for marriage had been held for more than two months. When had such a young man ever appeared on the arena?
There was no precedent.
The old man was a bit hesitant. Just as he was about to turn around and discuss with the judges, his eyes suddenly lit up. He saw a figure hurrying over from the entrance of Rejuvenation Valley. Wasn't that Valley Head Nie?
It had to be said that Valley Head Nie was also ashamed. He hadn't even reached the entrance of the manor when he heard the crowd counting outside. It sounded to five. With his qinggong, it would be difficult for him to arrive before the count ended. At this crucial moment, the counting stopped abruptly. Although Valley Head Nie couldn't clearly hear Zhang Xiaohua's words, he was certain that Zhang Xiaohua, who had rushed over in front of him, had stopped it.
Thinking of how he had used the attitude of a senior to test the other's qinggong, Valley Head Nie had an indescribable feeling in his heart. Jealousy?
Disappointment?
Gratification?
Peace of mind?
It was this indescribable feeling that made him forget: How did this young man know that the arena was about to end?
When he arrived at the entrance, Zhang Xiaohua had already gone on the arena to verify her qualifications.
When the old man saw Valley Head Nie come out, he said loudly, "Shaoxia, please wait a moment. The owner of the arena has arrived. I will ask him to come and make a decision."
After speaking, he said in a clear voice, "Valley Head Nie, you haven't appeared for an entire day. I thought you would be able to sit at home. It seems that you finally couldn't hold back and wanted to come see who will win first place."
Valley Master Nie took a few leaps and landed on the stage. He smiled and cupped his hands to the crowd below the stage, "Many thanks to all the heroes for your support. There are a lot of things to do in the valley. Moreover, seeing that the martial arts competition for marriage is about to end, this old man is going to marry off his daughter, so the dowry still needs to be prepared. Therefore, I will have to treat everyone slowly.
When the crowd below the arena heard this, they all laughed loudly and said, "Valley Head Nie is too courteous. This is a joyous occasion, how can you not be busy?
You can be busy, but don't forget us at the wedding banquet. "
"Of course, of course.
When the time comes, all the sects in the martial arts world will participate in my Rejuvenation Valley's joyous occasion. "
Valley Head Nie turned his head to look at the two on the arena and said with a frown, "Brother Yue, it's already late. Why are the two little heroes on the arena …"
The old man said with a smile, "Aren't they waiting for brother Nie to make a decision?"
"Make a decision?" Valley Head Nie said curiously, "The outcome of the competition can be determined by you. Is there a need for me?
I have given all the authority to brother. "
Seeing Valley Head Nie act so well, Zhang Xiaohua was secretly happy.
The old man pointed at Young Master Long and said, "At this time, Young Master Long of the Soaring Dragon Sword Village has already won several matches in a row. If no one challenges him, he will be today's number one. But just before brother came out, this Ren Shaoxia jumped onto the arena and wants to challenge Young Master Long."
Valley Head Nie said with a frown, "Since he came up, then let's start the fight?"
"But this Ren Shaoxia came alone without anyone accompanying him. Also, he doesn't look very old. This seems …"
