Chapter 438
Chapter 438
The arena had been set up for more than two months. During this period, there had been bloodshed. However, the rules of the arena had already stated that if anyone lost their life, they would be disqualified immediately. Moreover, those who had come to the arena for a spouse were all here for a joyous occasion. Who would want to risk their lives for no reason?
Therefore, in these sixty days, no one had lost their life.
However, at the last moment, not only did two people lose their lives, but the most hated hidden weapon had also appeared.
Immediately, the entire arena was in an uproar.
All the Adjudicators in the ring stood up in unison, while the crowd below the ring began to clamor loudly. Some of the Adjudicators in the corner even drew their weapons, and some of them were ready to fight.
Valley Master Nie was a man of character. He immediately stood up and waved his hand towards the manor. A bugle horn sounded from the manor and a group of people rushed out from the main gate. The people on the horses were all dressed in martial attire and held long swords and other weapons in their hands. Behind the horses were many guards in martial attire. At the same time, from the other two corners of the square, two groups of people also rushed out. The people on the horses were all dressed in iron armor and held long spears in their hands. The people below the horses were all armed with bows and arrows. They were actually soldiers from the government.
These three groups of people moved quickly. Before the crowd could react, they had already surrounded the entire square. The soldiers with bows and arrows stood up straight in front. Their left hand held the bow and their right hand nocked an arrow. They pulled the bowstring back.
The others drew their weapons and stood behind the soldiers, quietly waiting for the next order.
Seeing this, the crowd in the square changed color. Although they were all people of the Jianghu and thought that they did not put the government's soldiers in their eyes, they did not care about one against two or one against five. However, now they had to face an organized and disciplined army. This was not something they could fight head-on. Moreover, this group of soldiers looked like the famous archers of Sorrow City. Under their arrow rain, even if one's lightness skill was superb, it was inevitable that one would be injured.
In an instant, some people who were ready to take advantage of the situation immediately quieted down and quietly put their swords back into their sheaths.
At this time, Valley Master Nie came out from the crowd and stood at the edge of the arena. He smiled and shouted: "Heroes of the Jianghu, do not panic. These brothers are just a group of archers that I borrowed from Sorrow City's Lord Qian. Their purpose is to maintain the peace of the arena. They will not harm anyone. Everyone, stay where you are and do not panic."
The first person below the stage immediately shouted, "Valley Master Nie, we have heard of your reputation and have come here to compete. You are treating us like this, and you are even borrowing the power of the government. Isn't this too dishonest?"
Valley Master Nie smiled and said: "Brother, you misunderstand. My Rejuvenation Valley has always treated guests with courtesy. However, there are too many heroes here. To put it bluntly, it is inevitable that there are good and bad people mixed together. My Rejuvenation Valley's strength is limited and it is difficult to guarantee everyone's safety. That is why I had to ask the local officials for help.
Of course, everyone can rest assured that those who sincerely came to the competition are all friends of my Rejuvenation Valley. My Rejuvenation Valley will guarantee the safety of our friends. Otherwise, think about it. Even if I have any disloyalty, will Rejuvenation Valley still have a foothold in the Jianghu? "
That person laughed and said: "That is how it should be. I understand Valley Master Nie's explanation. I will sit here. You handle these miscellaneous matters. I am still waiting to drink a cup of your wedding wine!"
Zhang Xiaohua, who was standing on the arena, revealed a trace of a smile. This Valley Master Nie was indeed Nie Qianyu's father. Even the arrangement of the shills was so professional.
When the others heard these words, their minds were set. "That's right. We only came to the competition for a spouse. Since we were not chosen, we will just wait to drink the wedding wine. Anyway, this Nie family's Third Miss doesn't look like a peerless beauty. Moreover, she wants to marry into the family. Forget it, forget it. This matter has nothing to do with me. Let's sit down."
Thus, many people sat down quietly. When the people in the corner saw this, they also shrunk their tails and no longer made a sound.
Seeing that the situation in the arena was easily under his control, Valley Master Nie walked to the front of the corpse of the person who had just been shot to death by the hidden weapon. He frowned and looked at it. Then, he said: "Everyone, this person on the arena, who knows which side this hero belongs to?"
Below the arena, everyone looked at each other and didn't answer. Valley Master Nie shouted at the place where there was some commotion just now: "Does no one really know?"
Still, no one answered. Valley Master Nie laughed in his heart: "As expected by Little Yu."
Then, he pointed to the corpse on the ground and shouted: "What about the person on the ground?
Is it because no one recognizes him? "
Sure enough, no one answered.
Valley Master Nie frowned and said: "This … what should we do?"
Then, as if he suddenly thought of something, he said to the two people who had just been knocked off the arena by Zhang Xiaohua: "These two heroes, the two of them went up the arena with you. Moreover, you seem to be very familiar with each other. You even practiced a combination attack. Could it be that you don't recognize it?"
The person who had just been knocked off the arena looked at the people around him. Then, he stepped out of the crowd and cupped his hands: "Valley Master Nie, I am Jin Tong of the Money Faction. I was qualified more than a month ago."
Then, he pointed to the person next to him and said: "This is my sworn brother, Tao Guan. He was also qualified after me.
After the two of us were qualified, these two people on the arena found us and said that they wanted to team up with us for the final competition. After everyone else was kicked off the arena, the four of us would use our own skills to determine the final champion. The two of us didn't want to agree, but these two people took out a combination attack that could be used by four people. When we saw it, we deeply felt the power of it. If the two of us didn't participate and he found another two people, we definitely wouldn't be his opponent. Therefore, we could only cooperate. "
"Valley Master Nie, the two of us only saw them when we were practicing together. Usually, we don't know where they went. Even when we asked, they kept quiet. Therefore, until now, we only know that one of them is called Zhang San and the other is called Li Si."
"So it's like this."
Valley Master Nie cupped his hands and said: "Many thanks to Nephew Jin of the Money Faction. Please forgive the misunderstanding just now. However, since Nephew Jin already knew that there was something wrong with these two people, he should have informed Rejuvenation Valley earlier. Don't you think so?"
Jin Tong's face was full of shame as he said: "Valley Master Nie's words are very reasonable. This little nephew only admires Miss Nie wholeheartedly and is afraid of losing this precious qualification. Therefore, I was momentarily blinded by greed. I am truly ashamed to face Rejuvenation Valley."
Then, he looked around at the crowd and bowed deeply towards the stage. He said in a clear voice: "Valley Master Nie, this little nephew was momentarily ignorant and caused the current situation. I am deeply uneasy. Fortunately, there was this Ren Shaoxia who turned the tide and stopped the scoundrel's scheme. Otherwise, this one would feel guilty for the rest of his life. This one originally wanted to stay and celebrate with Valley Master Nie, but … but I truly feel guilty in my heart. This little nephew will leave first and return to report to my father. I will explain all the mistakes here one by one. When there is an opportunity, I will ask my father to personally bring this one to apologize to Valley Master Nie!"
"Heh heh, you feel guilty in your heart. It can't be that you have a guilty conscience, right?" Zhang Xiaohua only sneered in her heart.
Valley Master Nie smiled and said: "Nephew Jin doesn't need to feel guilty. Which young person doesn't make mistakes?
You should stay and drink a cup of wedding wine.
Everything is fine. "
Jin Tong refused to comply no matter what. Valley Master Nie could only nod towards the surrounding soldiers. The surrounding soldiers opened up a small gap and were still on guard.
Jin Tong and the others cupped their hands in salute to Valley Master Nie and led the dozen or so people away.
Nie Qianrong was a little puzzled. She whispered to Nie Qianyu: "Little sister, you let them go just like that?
They may be the bad guys who tried to kill you! "
Nie Qianyu reached out and held her elder sister's hand. She smiled slightly and didn't say much.
Valley Master Nie quietly looked at the side of the arena. If there was no one looking at him, immediately, there was someone who quietly used his lightness skill and returned to the villa.
Valley Master Nie then looked at the area below the arena where there had been some commotion just now. Valley Master Nie said, "Brothers of the Jianghu, the Rejuvenation Valley's martial arts competition for a spouse has been held here for more than two months. We are indebted to everyone for your support. Although there were some mistakes just now, Old Man Yue had already explained the rules of the arena before the final competition. I believe that everyone already knew that the martial arts competition for a spouse is a joyous occasion and is strictly prohibited from using poison. However, the two people just now actually disregarded the rules of my Rejuvenation Valley and angered the crowd. Everyone, think about it, if you were to be poisoned on this arena, how would my Rejuvenation Valley explain it to your parents and factions?
Fortunately, this Ren Shaoxia's martial arts had been exhausted and let these two reap what they sowed. Therefore, I declare that the final result of the competition is valid. The final winner is this Ren Xiaoyao and Ren Shaoxia! "
Valley Master Nie's last sentence was very popular. "Yes, in this arena, if I were to be poisoned, my life would have ended here. I didn't even touch the beautiful lady's hand and I would have died in vain. These two people are really hateful. It's good that they died, it's wonderful that they died!"
Therefore, the emotions of the crowd were stirred up and they shouted loudly: "Good, well said. Ren Shaoxia's martial arts are superior and he should have won."
Valley Master Nie was delighted when he heard this. Even Nie Qianyu behind him was so embarrassed that her face turned red. Although she knew that this was fake, she still felt embarrassed. She gently pulled her elder sister and quietly slipped away from the back of the arena.
Nie Qianxiu glanced at her husband. Both of their eyes were gloomy. Sighing, Nie Qianxiu also followed the two of them back to the villa.
Valley Master Nie waited for the crowd to finish speaking before he waved his hands and said: "Everyone, please listen to me. Rejuvenation Valley has already prepared a banquet and was only waiting for the winner to be decided. Once the winner was decided, he would have to bow to heaven and earth and marry my daughter. However, because these two scoundrels used poison, Ren Shaoxia had no choice but to protect himself and hurt the two people.
Blood has already been spilled today and it is very inauspicious. The wedding can only be postponed.
However, this banquet is already prepared. Come, everyone, Rejuvenation Valley has prepared good wine and delicious food. Let's get drunk today! "
