Chapter 458: Martial Arts Competition (I)

Zhong Yunxiu looked up and saw that it was none other than her daughter Zhong Han.

At this time, Zhong Han was dressed in a green outfit, with her hair firmly standing up and a green belt tied tightly around her waist. Her pretty face was as cold as ice, her eyes were as clear as water, and she was resolute and calm.

"Hanhan, why are you here?" Zhong Yunxiu calmed down and forced a smile.

"Mom, I've thought about it. Let's do it according to my idea." Zhong Han said calmly.

"Hanhan, there's no need." Zhong Yunxiu naturally knew what she meant.

Zhong Han wanted to personally challenge Chen Ying's son Chen Lingmo to solve the current problem.

It must be said that this is indeed a good idea. If Chen Lingmo can't even beat her... then he has no face to ask for marriage, and the storm will be calmed down.

But...

Zhong Yunxiu shook her head: "Jiuquyuan was just a small force at the beginning. Today, it has become more glorious than before, but also has many unnecessary constraints.

I have been impatient with these things for a long time. At worst, we can just leave and make a living on our own. We have grown from a weak place to the present. Even if we go out independently, can't we do it?"

She didn't want her daughter to take risks. She would rather make up her mind to leave Jingtianzhuang and become a third-rate force.

In any case, the finances, manpower, and territory of the seven courtyards of Jingtianzhuang are relatively independent. As long as she can make up her mind, this idea is likely to be realized.

"Mother, this is not appropriate..." Zhong Han shook her head gently, "Although Jingtianzhuang is a shackle, it is also a protection...If there is no Jingtianzhuang as a banner to support it..."

She didn't finish her words, but Zhong Yunxiu already understood the meaning.

A force wants to survive independently. Either it is located in a remote area, no one pays attention to it, and there are no coveted resources. Or it has extremely strong high-end strength and no one dares to provoke it. Otherwise, they could turn to a powerful force, hand over resources, and seek asylum.

And Jiuquyuan did not meet any of these requirements.

If they left casually, not to mention other things, the meat fields and market resources alone would be coveted.

This is undoubtedly similar to a child with gold in his arms. The final outcome can only be disintegration and being divided up by various forces.

Even at that time, the Sanshan Sect might directly take action and use force to take action directly.

At least now, the Sanshan Sect will still take into account the existence of Jingtian Manor and abide by the rules on the surface.

Therefore, leaving Jingtian Manor is not wise.

Zhong Yunxiu actually knew this, but she also loved her daughter so much that she said these words in a hurry.

Now she has come to her senses and is silent.

"Mother, it's okay. Just follow my idea first." Zhong Han saw Zhong Yunxiu's entanglement and helplessness, and smiled gently, "We have to try all the solutions. If it doesn't work, then consider leaving Jingli."

"Okay..."

After thinking for a long time, Zhong Yunxiu nodded slowly.

She looked at the smiling beautiful girl in front of her seriously, and couldn't help but feel a little dazed.

Time passed too fast, and it always passed by inadvertently.

In her impression, Zhong Han was just a cute child who followed her buttocks, babbled and imitated her.

And now...

She squinted her eyes, and tears blurred her vision.

This tall, graceful, bright, white-toothed, generous, flawless girl in front of her has grown up unknowingly and can silently help her share the burden.

All kinds of feelings surged in her heart, and thousands of words were hard to say.

In the end, everything she wanted to say turned into a sigh.

"Good...child, you've grown up..." Zhong Yunxiu turned her back quickly, her voice trembling.

This was the sadness of her own inability to do anything, but also the excitement and relief of her children growing up and becoming sensible.

After a while, she calmed down: "Hanhan, do you remember the starting posture I taught you before? Practice it again."

Zhong Han smiled, and her figure gently landed on the lake surface. She slowly stepped out her left leg, and turned into a phantom in an instant, stirring up waves on the lake surface, turning back and forth in a chain.

At this time, the sun was rising, and the fog on the lake surface was more and more diffuse. Zhong Han was like a fairy in the flower lake, an elf in the fog, dancing on the lake surface, giving people an indescribable beauty.

The whole picture was so fascinating that people could not help but linger and were intoxicated.

"The footwork is the basis, and the mind is the form..." Zhong Yunxiu's voice penetrated the fog and fell steadily into the ears of Zhong Han who was far away.

"This set of "Eight Illusionary Steps" focuses on the heart, the footwork is combined with the soul, and the mind is connected. In addition, the characteristics of your true skill, the Cold Yin Nine-Bend Palm, can make your speed reach the peak. No one below the Grandmaster can compare with you...

Your body is agile, your footwork is flexible, and as long as your speed is far faster than your opponent, it is enough to make you invincible... I don't ask you to fight hard, as long as you can fight to a draw and be safe, that's enough...

Don't think too much, there is nothing that is insurmountable, there will always be a way to solve it... At worst, I will directly disband the Nine-Bend Courtyard, and we, mother and daughter, will retire. What can they do?

The most important thing... is still human..."

Zhong Han listened to her mother's habitual chattering, smiling like a flower, and couldn't help but smile, and responded: "Mother, don't worry, your daughter knows..."

In fact, it's nothing big.

Then, she added another sentence in her heart.

It is better to die in glory than to live in disgrace.

This is her principle and the path she has always adhered to.

......

A few days later, the three masters of the Sanshan Sect, Chen Ying, will bring many famous masters to Jingtian Manor for a visit and exchange. The news spread like wildfire.

Jingtian Manor is like the core of a spider web, and letters are constantly conveyed to all directions like silk threads.

......

......

Jingming Town, Inspection Mansion.

"Get out of the way, get out of the way!"

A hurried girl with a huge package on her back, wearing a green dress and a sky-high braid, hurriedly pushed open the door of the mansion, her legs swinging back and forth at a very fast frequency, and ran from the door to the main hall.

"Xiao Yanyan, how can you be so loud and noisy?"

Butler Yang Du, dressed in black, walked out of the inner room with a frown.

Xiaoyan is a person in the Inspection Office who is responsible for delivering and receiving letters and running errands.

Her parents were miners in the mine, but unfortunately they had an accident because of the last mining disaster.

Han Yi felt sorry for her at the time, so he arranged the little girl to the Inspection Office and found her an easy and pleasant job.
