After rebirth, she discovered the space golden finger

Sect Leader Hou heard what Qin Gu had not yet said, and his face flushed. He coughed twice and changed the subject to talk about Zhaoyuan Mountain:

"...Zhaoyuan Mountain is right under our noses, and yet something like this happened, and yet our sect hasn't received any news. If it weren't for the disciples of the Xianlan Sect and the Yunshan Sect disappearing one after another, I'm afraid our sect would have been kept in the dark..."

Qin Gu raised his eyes to look at Sect Master Hou, his expression becoming serious: "Sect Master's meaning..."

Sect Master Hou nodded and said, "...I suspect that the evil cultivator may be connected to a high-ranking member of the sect. This evil cultivator chose the perfect time to appear. It happened to be during the Sword Discussion Conference, when all the sword cultivators in the world gathered in our Jijian Sect. There were so many people, it was a perfect opportunity to fish in troubled waters. Moreover, it coincided with the beast tide in Zhaoyuan Mountain. I heard from the disciple of the Yunshan Sect that there is a barrier deep in Zhaoyuan Mountain. Who in the world knows the terrain of Zhaoyuan Mountain better than the people of our Jijian Sect? It is simply impossible for an outsider to avoid the eyes and ears of the Jijian Sect and capture a sword cultivator to hide there to practice evil skills..."

"I will go to Zhaoyuan Mountain immediately." Qin Gu said solemnly.

Sect Master Hou replied, "You and Du Jian go together. I trust you and them alone within the sect. No matter what you find out, don't reveal it to anyone else. Report directly to me..."

He paused and said, "Don't tell Chen Lingxi about this either. He is an outsider after all. This is also a scandal for our Jijian Sect. Don't make it public. Try to make a big deal out of it."

Qin Gu nodded, and left Mengdao Mountain with Sect Master Hou...

……

On the Yunshan Sect's side, Lan Chu finally returned safely. Thanks to Pei Yun's treatment and the elixir given by Jijian Sect, most of his injuries have healed. The remaining small part requires time to recuperate.

On this day, Pei Yun and others came to Denggao Tower to watch Luo Rufeng's ring competition.

The previous match on the ring had not yet ended, and a group of people from the Yunshan Sect were waiting to watch under the ring. At this moment, the entire floor suddenly erupted in exclamations one after another!

Everyone from the Yunshan Sect looked in the direction of the sound and saw a large group of Jijian Sect disciples coming up the stairs with a very grand appearance.

Pei Yun first caught a glimpse of an old acquaintance - Pei An, but Pei An was just standing in the corner, serving as a foil.

Of the two leaders, one looked somewhat familiar, while the other was completely unknown to Pei Yun. However, Pei Yun's expression straightened slightly.

Because this person's strength was unfathomable, she could feel that the other person's cultivation was much higher than hers, at least at the Void Refinement Stage.

This group of people from the Jijian Sect came in front of the people from the Yunshan Sect, and their eyes were all fixed on Luo Rufeng.

The leader's face revealed a hint of arrogance, and his tone revealed a hint of pride that was hard to conceal: "Luo Rufeng, this is my brother Xu Zhou. He is your opponent today. Do you dare to fight?"

Luo Rufeng's eyes swept over Xu Cheng calmly, then landed on Xu Zhou. He spoke calmly, "I came to the Sword Discussion Conference to exchange sword techniques with the sword cultivators of the world. No matter who my opponent is, I will not shy away from a fight..."

"Interesting!" Xu Zhou looked at Luo Rufeng with great interest. The two looked at each other, and both of them felt the desire to fight.

Yi Jiantao snorted and laughed: "Elder Xu is the direct disciple of the master of our Jijian Sect. Luo Rufeng, you can still save face by admitting defeat now. Otherwise, you may lose miserably later..."

"That's what I thought! It turns out the younger brother lost and wasn't satisfied, so he asked his older brother to come and get back at him..."

Fu Lingchen raised his eyebrows and retorted, "You have no decency to send your sect's elders to fight. Then even if my Yunshan sect loses, it won't be shameful..."

I have to say that Fu Lingchen's mouth is really powerful, and he doesn't even need help from other people from Yunshan.

The people of Jijian Sect were very angry about these words. Moreover, Xu Zhou was an elder of Jijian Sect, and his cultivation level was in the middle stage of Lianxu, which was far higher than Luo Rufeng. This competition did seem like "the big bullying the small".

Listening to the whispers and strange looks from the people around them, the Jijian Sect disciples all looked unhappy. Some even secretly blamed Yi Jiantao for his previous provocation.

Xu Zhou looked at Luo Rufeng calmly and said with a smile, "...I just heard my brother describe the process of competing with you and became curious, so I came to challenge him. I have no other intentions. I apologize for the offense that disciple just now caused..."

"It's okay." Luo Rufeng shook his head.

As they were talking, the competition on the ring ended, and Luo Rufeng and Xu Zhou walked onto the ring under the watchful eyes of the crowd...

The two men held wooden swords, saluted each other, and the competition officially began.

Xu Zhou's figure disappeared in a flash. No one present had time to see his movements clearly. Before they could see him, a sea of ​​sword shadows appeared...

"So fast!" Luo Qi's expression brightened up, and he stared intently at the competition on the ring with wide eyes.

"He clearly didn't use any spiritual energy, but his movements and swordsmanship are so fast! Too fast!"

Lan Chu yelled, "I can't even see that person or Master's sword moves clearly even with my spiritual sense!"

Pei Yun, who was standing beside the two of them, looked at the arena silently. She had seen clearly the swordsmanship and body movements of the two men, so she knew how exquisite Xu Zhou's swordsmanship and body movements were. In terms of body movement alone, she was not as good as the person in front of her even when she used her unique sword technique.

The opponent's swordsmanship made her feel even more unfathomable, with a vague sense of "oneness of man and sword". Therefore, from the beginning of the competition, Luo Rufeng was at a disadvantage. He was always on the defensive and unable to attack.

Qu Yi asked the Demon-Slaying Sword Spirit and Zhen Hua beside him: "Two seniors, can Elder Luo win this competition?"

The Demon-Slaying Sword Spirit and Zhenhua both shook their heads. The Demon-Slaying Sword Spirit said, "...This Extreme Sword Sect elder's swordsmanship is clearly a level higher than Luo Rufeng's. His swordsmanship can be called that of a Grandmaster. There are very few flaws. Even if Luo Rufeng could see them, he would be powerless to retaliate. Each of his opponent's swords is perfectly timed. He even predicted how Luo Rufeng would strike back..."

Zhen Hua said, "...Xu Zhou's swordsmanship is exquisite and sophisticated. Such swordsmanship must be honed through years of combat experience..."

Some onlookers with high cultivation levels also saw that Luo Rufeng was in a difficult situation. This one-sided situation made everyone present think that the competition would end soon.

This result was not unexpected to everyone. Luo Rufeng's opponent was the elder of Jijian Sect, whose strength was much higher than Luo Rufeng's. No matter how talented Luo Rufeng was, he couldn't go against the will of heaven!

Looking at the embarrassed Luo Rufeng on the stage, the disciples of Jijian Sect, especially Yi Jiantao and Xu Cheng, felt proud. Zhu Zhi and the fifth prince of Ningguo, Huangfu Ye, who were watching not far away, had gloating expressions on their faces.

Luo Rufeng, who has never tasted defeat since the beginning of the sword-fighting competition, is finally going to be defeated this time. Many people at the scene have the same mentality as Zhu Zhi and Huangfu Ye.

A quarter of an hour, one stick of incense, two sticks of incense...

What they didn't expect was that Luo Rufeng actually held on. From being caught off guard and retreating repeatedly at the beginning, Luo Rufeng gradually adapted to the opponent's attacks.

At this moment, he could no longer see the people around him, and the surrounding noise gradually faded away. He abandoned everything and threw himself into the battle with only the sword shadows in his eyes...

When Pei Yun saw Luo Rufeng's current state, the corners of his mouth slightly raised and he revealed a smile.

Suddenly, someone in the crowd of onlookers exclaimed, "Luo Rufeng must have had...an epiphany!"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Luo Rufeng. Even the judging elders from the Extreme Sword Sect couldn't help but sigh, "... He is indeed a genius swordsman! How wonderful it would be if he were a disciple of the Extreme Sword Sect!"

"This, this..." Xu Cheng said in disbelief, "How is this possible?!"

"...For cultivators, sudden enlightenment is something that can only be encountered by chance. Some people may not even encounter it once in their entire life. He had a sudden enlightenment so easily... It's really, really..." Huangfu Jia, who was watching silently, murmured.

As for Zhu Zhi, Huangfu Ye, Yi Jiantao and others, their smiles froze on the spot.

After an unknown amount of time, Xu Zhou gathered his strength and thrust his sword towards Luo Rufeng. Luo Rufeng suddenly came to his senses and regained consciousness. He raised his eyes, a glimmer of light flashed across them, and he suddenly raised his sword in front of him to block the opponent's attack...

The sword tip touched the sword body, and the next second, the wooden sword in Luo Rufeng's hand burst open, and small wood chips flew out...

"Concession."

At this moment, Xu Zhou held the wooden sword against Luo Rufeng's chest...

"Xu Zhou wins."
