After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Chapter 557 Huangfu Ye

Since they had met Fu Lingchen, they naturally didn't need the disciples of the Extreme Sword Sect to lead the way. Pei Yun followed Fu Lingchen to the guest house where they were staying and asked:

"Where are Rufeng and the others? I didn't seem to see them at the square arena just now..."

"...You have no idea how many people came to this Sword Competition. The Extreme Sword Sect invited tens of thousands of people from all the major sects and families, and the number of sword cultivators who have passed the Sword Cave test is countless. The arenas in the square are simply not enough. Luo Rufeng and his friends didn't get a turn to compete in the arena today. When I came out, Luo Rufeng was practicing in his room, while Luo Qi, Qu Yi and the others went to line up to register. Now all we have to do is sign up, register our names, and then line up one by one to wait for the competition..."

Pei Yun recalled the huge crowds he had seen when he passed by the square earlier. He nodded in agreement, "...Indeed, there are too many people. But we still have to queue up for the competition. I'm afraid it won't be easy to accumulate points..."

"...The people from the Extreme Sword Sect have already said that they are urgently building a new arena. At most, within half a month, this tense situation will no longer occur..."

Fu Lingchen asked curiously, "How did you get in without an invitation? Did you pass the sword cave test?"

Pei Yun nodded awkwardly. In fact, after she passed the test, she reviewed it and found that this sword cave test was not difficult. As long as she understood the basic sword intent and then used the sword intent to integrate the sword moves on the cave wall, she could pass it.

The reason why she took so long was that she was too conceited. Before entering the sword cave, she held the mentality of "I can pass it with my strength". She did not understand the purpose of the test, nor did she carefully study the sword moves on the cave wall, nor did she pay attention to the moves of the "water man", so she didn't get the point at the beginning.

Pei Yun asked Fu Lingchen about what happened just now: "...were those disciples of the Xianlan Sect not on good terms with you just now?"

Fu Lingchen's smile faded slightly, and he said, "I've told you before that a super-large sect like the Xianlan Sect would be divided into different factions, fighting for their own interests. The leader just now was called Zhu Zhi. Zhen Yao and I have the same master, but our master and Zhu Zhi's master have a bad relationship. They belong to different factions, so it's normal for the disciples to have some conflicts..."

"If that's the case, why did Zhu Zhi just say he was engaged to Fellow Daoist Zhen? According to you, doesn't her master have a bad relationship with Zhu Zhi's master?"

Fu Lingchen did not answer Pei Yun's words. He pursed his lips tightly, and his face showed an unusual coldness.

Pei Yun could tell from the expressions of the people around him that he hadn't completely let go of Zhen Yao, so he advised, "...You've already left the demon world. Even if you want revenge, you won't have any chance with your current strength. It's better to follow your heart..."

Unexpectedly, Fu Lingchen gave a bitter smile: "...What these Xianlan Sect disciples said is actually true. Someone like me is not worthy of Zhen Yao. No matter what my difficulties are, I shouldn't have left her without a word, leaving all the embarrassment and humiliation to her, and even... betrayed her. How can a scum like me be qualified to ask for her forgiveness and even dream of getting back together with her..."

"You have a clear understanding of yourself..." Pei Yun glanced at him and said.

"It's just... I didn't expect her to be with Juji!"

"Isn't it good for Fellow Daoist Zhen to have a new beginning?"

"It's not that it's bad. If she really has... a new life and a loving Taoist partner, I will naturally bless her. But Zhu Zhi is insidious and cunning. He is best at saying one thing in front of you and another behind your back. I don't know how many shady tricks he has used in secret. I know his methods, and Zhen Yao knows them too. Why would she choose to be with him..." Fu Lingchen frowned slightly, looking hesitant.

As they chatted, they came to Xia Hexuan. The people living in Xia Hexuan were all from the sects and families that the Jijian Sect had invited. They walked through the pond garden and came to a secluded courtyard.

Luo Rufeng had already sensed Pei Yun's arrival. He opened the door and greeted Pei Yun with an unconscious smile: "You're here..."

Fu Lingchen saw the two of them looking into each other's eyes and exchanging glances, and he got goosebumps. He was about to make an excuse to leave to give the two of them a chance to be alone, when he saw Luo Rufeng pulling Pei Yun towards his room. Fu Lingchen, who was ignored by the two of them, touched his face sadly and returned to his room silently.

As soon as the door closed, Luo Rufeng in the room hugged the person in front of him. Reverend Rufeng, who was always serious in front of outsiders, complained quietly to someone: "Why are you here so late?"

Pei Yun smiled and put his arm around his neck, pretending to be sarcastic: "...I heard that you defeated the fifth prince of Ningguo, Huangfu Ye, in the ring yesterday. A bunch of women surrounded you below the ring. You still remember me..."

Luo Rufeng chuckled softly. Although he knew that the person in front of him was deliberately teasing him, he felt very happy. He lowered his head, tightened his grip around her waist, and forcefully kissed her red lips...

As the two were being affectionate, they heard lively voices coming from the yard.

It turned out that Luo Qi and the others had returned. As soon as they entered the yard, they shouted "Master! Master!" Luo Rufeng had no choice but to let Pei Yun go, with a trace of annoyance flashing across his brows.

The blush on Pei Yun's face had not yet faded, and when he saw the person in front of him with a dark face, he laughed happily.

"Let's go! Your apprentice is calling you!" Pei Yun pushed him, left his arms, and opened the door.

"Pei Yun, you're here?!"

"Hey! Senior Sister Pei, you're finally here..."

"Master's wife!"

Luo Qilanchu, Qu Yi, the Demon-Slaying Sword Spirit, and Venerable Zhenhua all returned to the yard.

"Have you registered?" Pei Yun asked curiously.

"Don't mention it. I've been waiting in line for half a day and finally got my name registered. But I don't think it will be our turn tomorrow. I guess we can only enter the ring the day after tomorrow..."

"There are too many sword cultivators in this world!"

"This isn't surprising. Look at the cultivators on the Haoyu Continent. At least half out of ten of them wield swords. The Sword Competition has been held for several times and is well-known. The Jijian Sect is a sacred place for sword cultivators all over the world to cultivate. Wouldn't everyone be scrambling to join? I heard there's a long line outside, all of them are people taking the Sword Cave test..."

"Then it's hard to accumulate points... How many points do you have?"

"In fact, we all went to the ring two days ago. Junior Brother Qu and I had one win and one loss, zero points, Lan Chu had two losses, two points, and my master was the best, with two wins and two points!"

Luo Qi became excited as he spoke, and immediately pulled Pei Yun to sit down. Several of them sat down around the wooden table in the yard, and said excitedly: "...Master, we just went to inquire about it. Do you know who Huangfu Ye was who competed with you yesterday?"

Luo Rufeng raised his eyebrows but did not speak. Pei Yun beside him asked, "Who is it?"

"He is the fifth prince of Ningguo."

"Didn't you know this yesterday?"

"This Ning Kingdom is a big country in Nanmo, East Cangzhou. I heard that it is quite powerful..."

"No matter how powerful this force is, can it be as powerful as the Extreme Sword Sect?"

"...Of course not."

Zhenhua smiled and said, "...When we were lining up today, we happened to hear people talking about the ring match between Rufeng and Huangfu Ye yesterday. Huangfu Ye isn't well-known, but his ancestor is famous, and you've heard of him..."

"...Who is it?" Pei Yun and Luo Rufeng looked at each other.

"Huangfu Ji."

Pei Yun and the others were stunned for a moment before they realized, "...It's Huangfu Ji, who ranks first on the potential monument."

"That's right, this Huangfu Ye is the descendant of Huangfu Ji."

"Is Huangfu Ye's swordsmanship good?" Pei Yun asked with interest.

Luo Rufeng paused for a moment and said objectively: "...not as good as Pei An."

The Demon-Slaying Sword Spirit also said, "This person is good at using unconventional swordsmanship, but he's too focused on achieving a surprise victory, and he's gone astray..."

As they were talking, Fu Lingchen walked out of the room, holding a jade box in his hand, and asked the people in the courtyard: "Who entered my room just now? There is an extra box in my room..."

Because it was placed next to his pillow, he didn't notice it at first.

Luo Rufeng said: "Not long after you left in the morning, Fellow Daoist Zhen came to visit. You happened to be away, so Fellow Daoist Zhen went to your room to wait for you..." Everyone present knew that Zhen Yao was Fu Lingchen's ex-fiancée.

Fu Lingchen's face showed an indescribable emotion. He did not speak again, but returned to his room alone with the jade box in his hand.

"What happened?" Luo Qi saw him return to the room in a daze, and he couldn't help but feel puzzled when he saw him acting normal when he went out in the morning.

"Leave him alone!" Pei Yun sighed and shook his head.
