Moonlight and wind

"Young Master Shan!" The commander swung the Overlord Spear to block in front of him, and the tip of Shan Zimo's knife just touched the tip of the spear.

"Just play!" Shan Zimo did not stop what he was doing.

"Then I'm sorry!" The commander took a step back, standing tall like a pine or cypress, holding a gun in one hand with the gun tip hanging down, and extending the other hand towards Shan Zimo.

Shan Zimo smiled slightly, swung the knife in his hand and slashed at the commander. The speed was so fast that only the flashing knife light could be seen left and right.

The commander tightly grasped the Overlord Spear with both hands and blocked left and right. The two men, one attacking and one defending, fought evenly.

Just when Shan Zimo was feeling a little bored, the commander seized the opportunity, grasped the gun in one hand, gathered his internal strength, and quickly rushed towards Shan Zimo. The tip of the gun stabbed out like thunder, and the gun tip was wrapped in huge power and attacked him with a gust of wind.

Shan Zimo raised his knife, and this time the spear tip was against his knife. "Interesting!" Shan Zimo said with a smile. Shan Zimo pushed the knife with his palm, and with great force, he pushed the commander and his spear several meters away!

The commander tried hard to stand firm, gripped the Overlord Spear tightly, raised the spear tip upward, gathered his internal strength in his legs, leaped up, and rushed towards Shan Zimo.

Above Shan Zimo, the Overlord Spear swung down, and the whole person smashed down violently! Shan Zimo wanted to block it, but when he felt the huge internal force pressing down from above his head, he immediately changed his strategy, rolled over, and dodged to the side.

Fortunately, Shan Zimo dodged it. The shot came down like a huge wave, surging and smashing the bluestone slabs on the ground into pieces!

"Good marksmanship!" Shan Zimo jumped up from the ground, "Looks like we have to get serious now!" Shan Zimo held the knife in one hand, jumped up, and stabbed towards the commander in the face.

The commander did not confront him head-on, but turned around and tried to flee! Shan Zimo quickly stepped forward to catch up, and suddenly, the commander turned around and thrust out the Overlord Spear, "Overlord's Return Spear!" With the commander's roar, the shiny Overlord Spear appeared in front of Shan Zimo!

Shan Zimo managed to hold on to his momentum in time; the tip of the gun was only two fingers away from his forehead!

"Young master, thank you for giving me the chance!" The commander took the Overlord Spear and bowed.

"What a powerful warrior!" Shan Zimo returned the knife to the guard warrior, "What's your martial arts rank?"

"Reply to Young Master, Wu Zong!"

"Not only that! Even I am no match for you!"

"Young Master, you are joking. You did not use your internal energy during this competition. If you had used your internal energy, I would not be your opponent!"

"Just for fun, just for fun!" Shan Zimo had never expected that he could be seen to have not used his internal energy, so he could only laugh it off, "Okay, I'm tired too, let's not go out today!" Having said that, he took Shan Boyu back to Longyin Villa.

"Your Majesty," the eunuch stood outside Fengyi Palace, "In the battle on Qinglong Street just now, although Young Master Shan seemed to have been defeated, in fact, his true strength was not displayed."

"Any progress?" "Your Majesty, Young Master Shan's martial arts should be above that of a martial master, and he seems to have the strength of a martial king. This is cause for celebration!"

"King Wu? Has he caught up with the martial arts of his second and third uncles?"

"It's just that Young Master Shan doesn't have any prestige yet, so I'm afraid it will take some time for him to break through to the Martial Sect level."

"Prestige?" Emperor Wu came out of his bedroom in a long robe. His unkempt hair made him look older. "What I have the most is prestige!"

"There is one more thing," the eunuch suddenly hesitated. "Tell me!" "It's about the selection of the daughters of the Yecheng City. Originally, Young Master Shan was going to the Hanlin Mansion tonight, but was stopped by Commander Yuan. It must be the princess's intention."

"Jin Yu," Emperor Wu stroked his beard and squinted his eyes, "She is capable of doing this, let them do whatever they want!"

One night, Shan Zimo meditated in his own courtyard. The kingly aura of the imperial city was so overbearing that it not only strengthened his muscles and bones, but also promoted the harmony between the Snow Shadow Divine Art and the Snow Falling Sword Technique in his body!

Shan Boyu leaned against the vat, squinting his eyes. He seemed to be taking a nap, but in fact he was observing the young master's every move and was afraid that he might fall into the danger of falling into his inner demons.

"Alright," Shan Zimo collected his Qi, finished his breathing exercises, and came to Shan Boyu's side, "Let's go back to our room and sleep!" Shan Boyu jumped up from the ground, stretched, and rubbed his eyes, "Master, Boyu has already had a good sleep!"

The two of them walked into the side room one after the other. Princess Jinyu was very quiet that night and did not bother Shan Zimo.

As soon as the day broke, the aunt in the Hanlin Mansion began her day of mischief, drinking tea, serving, dressing up, and giving several maids a good beating!

"Alas," sighed the maid who came back to fetch water from the backyard, "our lives will be hard from now on!"

"Keep your voice down! Don't let that scoundrel hear you!"

"Well, if that's the case, I might as well sell myself again. Maybe I can meet a master like you again!"

"Say less, that idiot is still waiting for tea!"

"Ling'er," Qu Xuanyue called Zi Ling'er, "We will go to Auntie to pay our respects later, you should get ready now."

"Miss, do you still want to go?" Zi Ling'er's reluctance was written all over her face.

"Although neither you nor I like it, after all, she is now included in the family tree of the Qi family. She is an elder, so naturally we have to go and greet her."

"Miss, you are too kind!" After saying that, the two of them walked towards Guixiang's courtyard.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, the maids and servants who were kneeling on the ground in the yard saw the young lady coming and cast pleading glances at her.

"Aunt, what happened?" Seeing Guixiang leaning against the door frame with her hands on her hips, there was no place to put her hair accessories!

"Hey, the young lady is here!" Guixiang folded her hands in front of her chest, "These servants don't know the rules, I'm training them now, so that they know how to serve the master!"

"If they have done something wrong, Auntie, don't be angry. Just let Uncle Gong handle it. Why make them kneel so early in the morning? It's still very cold today..."

“Hey!” Before Xuanyue could finish her words, Guixiang spat, “I’ve never been a master, and now I want you to teach me how to be a master!”

As he was talking, Qu Ning came out of the wing room, wearing a brocade jacket, with messy hair, and yawning, "Why are you making a fuss here so early in the morning!"

"I wanted to greet Auntie, but now it seems I can't do that anymore! Ling'er, let's go!"

After saying that, she turned around to leave. Just then, Qi Hanlin walked in. Guixiang saw him and immediately fell to the ground and cried, "This is terrible! I just got married for a day and this young lady is already teaching me a lesson! How can I, as an elder, survive here!"

"Father!" Qu Xuanyue looked at Qu Hanlin and was about to explain something, but then she closed her mouth again.

Qu Hanlin walked past Qu Xuanyue, came to Guixiang, helped her up, and said, "Everyone go, do what you need to do!" Then he walked into the wing room. Qu Ning followed behind him, turned around and gave Qu Xuanyue an evil smile, and also went into the wing room.

"Alas, now that the young lady has lost her power, I'm afraid it will be hard for us to stay in this house!"

"Miss, what should we do?"

"No rush, let her be more arrogant!" A triumphant smile appeared on Xuanyue's face.
