Chapter 648
Below the Moon Embracing Pavilion, the originally noisy crowd had become much quieter at this moment. Soon after, everyone raised their heads to look at the sky. In the distant horizon, a fiery cloud that was like the sun was suddenly rushing over.Whoosh!In the blink of an eye, this huge fiery figure shuttled through space and suddenly arrived above the Moon Embracing Pavilion. Only then could everyone clearly see that the fiery figure was actually a giant bird that was dozens of feet in size."Vermillion Bird?"Within the Moon Embracing Pavilion, Zhuowen's pupils shrank as he immediately recognized this giant fiery red bird. Wasn't this the Vermillion Bird that had entered the Imperial City?And the appearance of the Vermillion Bird also meant …As he thought of this, Zhuowen's gaze shifted upwards and immediately saw the graceful woman on the back of the Vermillion Bird. Her face was covered by a veil, and she stood barefooted. She was as pure as ice and as pure as jade, and stood out from the crowd.Beside the veiled woman, a man with a ghost mask silently stood. He was like a dedicated bodyguard that constantly stood beside the woman.The instant the Vermillion Bird appeared, another dazzling brilliance swept over from the horizon. It was as fast as lightning and instantly arrived beside the Vermillion Bird in the sky above the Moon Embracing Pavilion. The brilliance converged to reveal a magnificent flying boat that shone with gold and jewels."Miss Muxue!This Vermillion Bird mount of yours truly possesses the bloodline of the Ancient Divine Beast, the Phoenix. It can spread its wings and soar thousands of miles in a single leap. Wuji is very envious. "A refined and clear voice was slowly transmitted from the dazzling flying boat. Following the voice, a handsome young man wearing a purple long robe with purple hair draped over his shoulders stood on the flying boat. The corners of his mouth curled slightly, revealing a refined smile. His gaze was gentle as he looked at the beautiful figure on the vermilion bird."Isn't that the Second Prince of the Imperial City, Huangfu Wuji?I never thought that the Second Prince would actually come here. ""In the past, the Imperial City and Blue Dragon Hall would not participate in such a grand event. Only the geniuses of the eight large counties would participate. I never thought that even the Second Prince would come this time.""I'm afraid that the Second Prince did not come for the grand event of the Intoxicated Spring Pavilion. Don't you see the woman on the Vermillion Bird?If I'm not mistaken, this woman should be the Burning Heaven Sect's Saintess. "Everyone's gazes from top to bottom of the Moon Embracing Pavilion converged over. They all knew that this woman should be the Holy Maiden of the Burning Sky Sect who had suddenly descended upon the world and stood alone on the Vermillion Bird.In an instant, a wave was set off in the surroundings of the Moon Embracing Pavilion. Everyone's gazes were blazing as they stared at the beautiful figure on top of the Vermillion Bird. They all understood how noble the Holy Maiden of the Burning Heaven Sect was. At this moment, she had actually descended to the Moon Embracing Pavilion. How could everyone not be indescribably excited?"Ouch!Your Highness the Second Prince, I didn't expect you to come as well. Mother Xu is truly honored!And this noble Holy Maiden, quickly come to the Moon Embracing Pavilion. Mother Xu will choose the best seats for you. "A flattering voice instantly sounded out from within the Embracing Moon Pavilion. A woman who still retained her charm leisurely walked over from who knows where. Her voluptuous figure swayed like a lily, and her face was full of smiles.Huangfu Wuji faintly smiled. His gaze immediately fell on the beautiful figure on top of the Vermillion Bird. He smiled and said, "What does Miss Muxue think?"The veiled woman did not reply. She faintly glanced at Huangfu Wuji. Her jade feet lightly tapped the air, and she floated down to the top floor of the Moon Embracing Pavilion. It was unknown whether it was intentional or not, but this woman actually sat not too far away from Zhuowen.Because Qiu Changsheng, Lü Nantian, and Lü Hantian were chatting with each other, Zhuowen, Lv Yitao, and the other juniors naturally did not disturb the mood of the three. Instead, they casually found a seat near the window, and silently watched the performance below as they sipped their wine.The arrival of the Vermillion Bird naturally attracted the attention of Zhuowen and the others. At this moment, Muxue was like a fluttering butterfly, gracefully landing not too far away from them.Huangfu Wuji did not care about Muxue's attitude. He faintly smiled, and with a step, he gracefully landed in the Moon Embracing Pavilion. He casually sat across from Muxue, the corners of his mouth filled with a warm smile.Muxue's willowy eyebrows wrinkled. Huangfu Wuji's behavior of sitting across from her caused her to feel a little displeased, but she did not show it.Muxue's ethereal temperament was like that of a goddess descending to the mortal world. She was like a lotus flower rising from the water. Even Luo Xing and Clear Lotus felt a sense of inferiority in their hearts.Although Muxue's face was covered by a veil, and one could not clearly see her true appearance, her temperament had already far surpassed theirs. This caused the two girls to feel a sense of inferiority in their hearts."It's rare to find such an extraordinary woman with such extraordinary skills in this world!No wonder she was able to become the Saintess of the Burning Heaven Sect. "A rare ripple appeared in Lv Yitao's calm eyes. Even he was unable to remain calm in front of Muxue's ethereal temperament, and it was difficult for his heart to calm down.Qiu Shaoyun and Qin Batian were even more unbearable. Their eyes were infatuated as they stared at Muxue's peerless figure, unable to extricate themselves.Zhuowen's eyebrows slightly wrinkled, his eyes tightly staring at Muxue's body. He felt that this woman's temperament gave him a faint sense of familiarity. This sense of familiarity caused him to involuntarily recall that peerless figure."Muxue?Mu Chenxue?No, although their temperaments are somewhat similar, the feeling they give me is that they are not the same person. Perhaps the two of them know each other? "Looking at Muxue, Zhuowen's eyes revealed a trace of thoughtfulness. Although Muxue's temperament was very similar to Mu Chenxue's, if one carefully observed, there were actually subtle differences between the two."Perhaps I'm thinking too much!Mu Chenxue is currently in the Jia Shen Academy, how could she possibly come to the Qing Xuan Empire? "Shaking his head, Zhuowen's gaze slightly shifted, no longer paying attention to Muxue. Although Muxue's temperament was otherworldly and elegant, Zhuowen's heart was already occupied by someone else. Naturally, he did not have any other thoughts in his heart.Mu Xue, whose face was covered by a veil, shifted her starry eyes slightly. She discreetly glanced at Zhuo Wen, who was not far away. When she saw Zhuo Wen's absent-minded appearance, there was a trace of resentment in her soul-stirring eyes.Time passed by minute by minute, second by second, and the crowd surrounding the Moon Embracing Pavilion grew. Furthermore, other than Muqin County and Liu Yan County, the other six county lords had basically brought their genius representatives into the Moon Embracing Pavilion.The other six commanderies were Ganmeng Commandery, Xijiang Commandery, South Maple Commandery, Chuangui Commandery, Icebound Commandery, and Lihuo Commandery. In the previous War of the Nine Commanderies, Icebound Commandery and Lihuo Commandery were the two most powerful commanderies other than the Imperial Capital Commandery.It was said that Icebound County's number one genius, Wen Ao Xue, was ranked eleventh on the Green Emperor Leaderboard. He was only one rank away from the top ten on the Green Emperor Leaderboard. His strength was unfathomable, and he was much stronger than Lv Yitao.As for Lihuo County's number one genius, Prince Lie Yun, his ranking wasn't bad either. He was also ranked thirteenth on the Green Emperor Leaderboard, and his strength was also above Lv Yitao's.Furthermore, the number of geniuses from these two counties that entered the top hundred on the Green Emperor Leaderboard was second to none among the eight counties. This was also the reason why these two counties were ranked at the top. Their overall strength was also much stronger than the other counties.The county lord of Icebound County was a white-haired old man in a white robe. Beside the old man was a dignified and elegant lady with a bun on her head. This lady had long snow-white hair, but strangely, her pupils were snow-white, making her look exceptionally demonic.This lady was Icebound County's number one genius, Wen Ao Xue. Her strength was unfathomable, and she had always kept a low profile.The county lord of Lihuo County was a middle-aged bald man with a sturdy figure. Beside him, Young Master Lie Yun's figure was not any worse than this bald man. His fiery red short hair looked extremely dry, and when he breathed, there were wisps of hot air exhaling, but it was quite strange.The county lords of Icebound County and Lihuo County walked side by side at the front, while the remaining four county lords silently followed behind them.When the county lord of Lihuo County passed by Lü Nantian and Qiu Changsheng, his footsteps paused, and the corners of his mouth curled up. He stared at Lü Nantian and said, "Lü Nantian, did you bring a bunch of trash from Muqin County to participate in the Great War of the Nine Counties again?This time, do you plan to take the last place or the second last place? "The county lord of Lihuo County's voice was forceful and loud. As soon as he opened his mouth, his words spread throughout the entire Embracing Moon Pavilion like a thunderclap. Some of the weaker people could not help but cover their ears, and a look of discomfort appeared on their faces.Lü Nantian stopped and narrowed his eyes. He stared at the county lord of Lihuo County and said, "Flaming Bird, don't be too arrogant!You were lucky to take the third place in the Great War of the Nine Counties last time, and you are already so proud of yourself? ""Lucky?Lü Nantian, back then, the geniuses from Muqin County were almost eliminated by our Lihuo County. You actually dare to say that you were lucky? I really don't know if there is something wrong with your head or if you think too highly of yourself. "Flaming Bird crossed his arms, and a mocking look appeared in his eyes. He laughed loudly and was extremely arrogant.As soon as these words left his mouth, the expressions of Zhuowen, Lv Yitao, and the others turned ugly. The county lord of Lihuo County, Flaming Bird, had brought up the Great War of the Nine Counties the moment he arrived. It was obvious that he wanted to intimidate them."Humph!Back then, if my big brother, Lü Hantian, had not been trapped in the inheritance ground of the Blood Devil, your Lihuo County would not have been able to act so arrogantly. Back then, when you saw my big brother, you were like a rat crossing the street with your tail between your legs. You did not even dare to fart. "Lü Nantian mocked."Lü Hantian?Hehe, it is fortunate that Lü Hantian was not here. Otherwise, that Lü Hantian would have been in an even worse state!The number one genius of your Muqin County back then was not even worth a fart in front of me.You still want to use Lü Hantian to scare me?That guy probably died in the inheritance ground of the Blood Devil long ago. He is just a dead man. "The cold smile on Flaming Bird's face became even more intense. His words were filled with disdain for Lü Hantian."Oh?It seems that the small fry back then has become so arrogant now!Back then, who was the one who kowtowed three times and nine times in front of me, calling me Uncle Lü and Father Lü? "
