Chapter 2830 Xuanying

Suddenly, Jiang Qingqing's eyes fell on Ling Yun and asked, "Ling Yun, can you play?"

Ling Yun had no intention of showing off, but since Jiang Qingqing asked, he could only nod and say, "I can play a little, but I'm not proficient."

Jiang Qingqing said, "Then can you accompany me?"

Suddenly, Fan Xiaoyun glanced at Ling Yun coldly and said sarcastically, "Princess, someone who doesn't know the rules of etiquette is not worthy of accompanying you."

Ling Yun's face changed slightly when he heard this.

He put down the cup in his hand, looked at Fan Xiaoyun, and said slowly: "Do you know me well? What qualifications do you have to interfere in my affairs?"

Fan Xiaoyun said indifferently: "Of course I don't know you well, and I don't want to know you well. As for why I interfere, it's because you... are really unworthy!"

At this moment, Jiang Kai suddenly said coldly: "Fan Xiaoyun, everyone present is a guest of my royal family, so please be more respectful. Otherwise, please leave!"

Fan Xiaoyun nodded angrily: "I know, Your Highness."

Then, Jiang Qingqing looked at Ling Yun and invited him again: "Ling Yun, are you willing to play a song for me? If it's not convenient for you, just treat it as my nonsense, don't take it to heart."

Ling Yun hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Okay."

After the voice fell, Ling Yun came to the center of the banquet and sat cross-legged, and the Duyou Guqin flashed out.

Ling Yun closed his eyes, plucked the strings with his fingers, and the melodious and beautiful sound of the qin soon filled the entire hall.

Jiang Qingqing smiled slightly, stepped out with lotus steps, and came to the hall to dance gracefully.

Lingyun's piano music is very suitable for the current atmosphere. With the sound of the piano, the atmosphere at the scene is more harmonious and warm.

Everyone clinked glasses, listened to the piano music quietly, and watched the dance.

"What a mysterious melody."

"The princess's dance is also rare in the world!"

"..."

Everyone present admired sincerely.

Li Jinjin slowly closed her eyes, carefully felt and listened to Lingyun's piano music.

Although it was just a simple and graceful melody, Li Jinjin could hear from it how talented and accomplished Lingyun was in piano music.

Then, Lingyun's fingertips sped up a bit, and the melodious piano sound rippled out. The artistic conception swirled in everyone's mind, and in front of their eyes, it seemed as if a picture scroll was presented.

Along with Ling Yun's music, Jiang Qingqing's beautiful and melodious singing voice came out. Divine power gathered around her body, making her look elegant and dignified. In an instant, everyone felt that the scene in front of them was like the supreme divine realm!

"Good."

Even Li Jinjin praised sincerely.

At this moment, Fan Xiaoyun and Dongfang Yu looked ugly. They didn't like Ling Yun, but they didn't expect that they would help Ling Yun to make a good story.

After a long time, the sound of the piano gradually faded.

Jiang Qingqing looked at Ling Yun and said with a smile: "Ling Yun, can I ask you for advice on the way of the zither if I have a chance in the future?"

Ling Yun nodded: "Of course."

After speaking, Ling Yun put away the Duyou Guqin and turned back to his seat.

After the banquet, Ling Yun, Ling Lan and others said goodbye to Jiang Kai and left.

After leaving the hall, the royal guards personally escorted Ling Yun and others out of the palace and back to the inn.

Arriving at the inn, Ling Yun, Ling Lan and Ling Jing were not sleepy, so they chatted and laughed in the courtyard of the inn.

The next morning.

The battle stage in the palace was soon crowded with people.

Everyone was looking forward to today's martial arts competition.

Just yesterday, the martial arts competition selected a hundred top geniuses, and today, how sharp will they be?

When Ling Yun and his friends arrived, many forces such as Shengtian Mansion, Dongfang Family, Jiuxuan Building, and princes and nobles were already present.

Not long after, Emperor Jiang also arrived.

Everyone stood up to greet them and then sat down.

Jiang Qingqing's clear eyes swept the crowd and smiled slightly after seeing Ling Yun.

Ling Yun also smiled in return.

At this time, Ling Lan said lightly: "Brother Ling Yun, it's okay, so you start flirting?"

Ling Yun said speechlessly: "It's just a courtesy."

Ling Lan giggled.

Then, Emperor Jiang slowly stood up, waved his hand and said loudly: "Now, the martial arts competition begins."

Immediately afterwards, someone from the royal family walked onto the stage and neatly arranged the wooden sticks with everyone's names and information. Among these people, only ten people will shine today and become famous in the Cangyue Divine Kingdom.

The old man of the royal family raised his head and said loudly: "The hundred people who have advanced are selected from tens of thousands of contestants. Naturally, you also represent the future of the Cangyue Divine Kingdom. Therefore, today's martial arts competition is different from the previous ones. Both sides can do their best to show their strength. Even if they lose in the end, they still have the opportunity to advance."

Then, the old man of the royal family said: "Now, those whose names I call out, go to the stage. The first round is still a melee!"

"..."

After the list was read, neither Zhao Qingcheng nor Ling Yun's names were called.

But Gu Nanchen's name appeared.

Gu Nanchen walked onto the stage, his straight body like a pine tree was motionless, and on his back, he carried an ancient sword completely wrapped in black cloth.

The ancient sword was awe-inspiring.

Then, the melee began.

Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing from the Dongfang family joined forces to frantically sweep away their opponents.

Soon, there were only four people left in the melee.

Dongfang Yan.

Dongfang Qing.

Gu Nanchen.

And Tang Zhen from Shengtian Mansion.

At this time, Gu Nanchen finally put away his lazy look and looked a little serious.

Gu Nanchen did not speak, but slowly drew out the ancient sword on his back with the sound of metal.

Then, Gu Nanchen slowly walked towards the two people of the Dongfang family.

The expressions of the people present suddenly changed.

"What does Gu Nanchen mean?"

"Why don't you avoid the Dongfang family's edge at this time?"

"Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing will naturally join forces, where does Gu Nanchen get the confidence?"

"..."

Looking at the scene in front of him, Dongfang Yu in the stands narrowed his eyes slightly.

He knew the strength of Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing very well, and Gu Nanchen was indeed a little arrogant at this moment.

Tang Zhen of Shengtian Mansion was happy to see this scene.

Anyway, no matter who wins or loses, he, Tang Zhen, can advance.

"One against two?"

"No self-awareness!"

"Looking for death!"

In an instant, Dongfang Qing and Dongfang Yan stomped their feet, and the surging fighting spirit bloomed from their bodies. The majestic divine power gathered, and the terrible power suddenly descended on Gu Nanchen.

At this moment, the atmosphere was instantly suppressed to the extreme.

And the crowd watching around were secretly sweating for Gu Nanchen.

Gu Nanchen raised his head, glanced coldly at Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing, and said lightly: "Self-knowledge?"

Gu Nanchen smiled indifferently, and then said: "If you can beat me, then come and talk to me about self-knowledge."

"Swish!"

As the voice fell, the ancient sword in Gu Nanchen's hand shook violently.

Then, the sword light flashed.

At the same time, Gu Nanchen's slender and burly body also disappeared on the spot.

The majestic sword will fell down.

"Get out!"

Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing both shouted angrily, clenched their hands, and there was a majestic divine power flowing between their palms, and then their bodies flashed, and they quickly rushed towards Gu Nanchen, and at the same time, they slapped their palms, and two palm prints were fiercely imprinted on the void.

"Bang Bang!"

Instantly, a sharp tearing sound was heard, and a silver crack appeared between the two palm prints. Then, a figure holding an ancient sword flashed out from it. It was undoubtedly Gu Nanchen.

Dongfang Qing and Dongfang Yan's eyes were slightly focused, and they dared not relax at all. They took a step forward, and the majestic divine power gathered again.

"Boom!"

The scarlet eyes stared at Gu Nanchen, and Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing were all filled with dark golden color, and then they threw a punch.

"Frost Zhoutian!"

The ancient sword in Gu Nanchen's hand shook slightly, and a mottled breath flowed out of the ancient sword crazily. At the same time, Gu Nanchen stomped his foot, and the cold air began to spread in the void.

In just a moment, the world in front of them turned into a world of ice.

Dongfang Qing and Dongfang Yan's eyes flashed, and they felt that their steps were much heavier, and their bodies were stiff in place, unable to move.

"Xuanying Bu!"

A mysterious aura flowed around Gu Nanchen, and then he flashed and disappeared from the spot.

In an instant, Ling Yun stood up suddenly, and his dark and bright pupils suddenly shrank.

Ling Lan was surprised and said, "Brother Ling Yun, what's wrong?"

Ling Yun said in a deep voice, "I seem to have seen Gu Nanchen's body movements somewhere before."

Ling Lan frowned slightly and said, "Have you met Gu Nanchen before?"

Ling Yun shook his head, "No, it was the first time yesterday. However, I always feel very familiar with this Gu Nanchen, and this feeling is also very unusual."

Ling Lan nodded, "Indeed, this Gu Nanchen seems to be helping you openly and secretly. He knows that there is a grudge between you and the Dongfang family, so on the battlefield, he is also deliberately targeting the people of the Dongfang family."

Ling Yun said, "Yes."

Gu Nanchen seems to carry some mysteries.

While Ling Yun and Ling Lan were talking, Gu Nanchen's figure suddenly flashed, and he appeared like a ghost around Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing.

"Swish!"

In an instant, Gu Nanchen's sword suddenly descended.

It went straight to Dongfang Yan's throat.

"Swish!"

The next moment, the sword tip turned sharply and suddenly sank into Dongfang Yan's chest.

In fact, Dongfang Yan would definitely die under this sword.

But there are rules for martial arts competitions, and the opponent's life must not be harmed.

"Bang Bang!"

Dongfang Yan was like being struck by lightning, and his face was full of pain.

Then, Gu Nanchen obviously did not intend to stop, and the palm of his hand contained a terrifying divine power fluctuation, and he slapped the chests of the two.

"Bang!"

The palm print fell firmly.

Dongfang Yan and Dongfang Qing were instantly blown away, and their cultivation was completely destroyed.

At this time, in the crowd, Dongfang Yu slowly stood up, emitting terrifying divine power fluctuations all over his body.

Dongfang Yu stared at Gu Nanchen and said calmly: "Gu Nanchen, why are you targeting my Dongfang family like this? What is your relationship with Lingyun?"

Gu Nanchen glanced at Dongfang Yu, then looked at Lingyun, shook his head and said: "Thank you for your concern, we have nothing to do with each other."

Dongfang Yu narrowed his eyes slightly: "No relationship? If there is no relationship, why would you help Lingyun target my Dongfang family?"

Gu Nanchen was a little impatient, his face changed instantly, and his fighting spirit suddenly expanded. He stared at Dongfang Yu and said slowly: "Even if there is a relationship, what can you do?"

He looked calm and imposing.

Moreover, Gu Nanchen's aura was obviously not weaker than Dongfang Yu's.
