Jiang Cixi stood facing Gongsun Yue with a calm expression.

After a moment, she raised her hand.

There was a loud "bang". Before anyone could see what had happened, Gongsun Yue's body was knocked off the stage like a kite with a broken string, and he fell in a very embarrassing manner.

Jiang Cixi remained standing, not even moving. She glanced indifferently at Gongsun Yue below the stage and said in a deep voice, "The competition is over. I hope Patriarch Gongsun won't cause trouble again."

Gongsun Yue: "..."

He sat on the ground, looking at Jiang Cixi in astonishment, like a clown.

Everyone opened their eyes wide at the same time, as if they hadn't reacted yet.

When he realized that the competition was over, a look of horror appeared on his face.

The head of the Jiang family...actually killed the head of the Gongsun family in one move.

Is this the strength of the Jiang family?

The other family heads also stood there in a daze, their faces filled with surprise.

They were more or less aware of Gongsun Yue's strength, and none of the people present could be Gongsun Yue's opponent.

Furthermore, Gongsun Yue has been boasting that he almost defeated Jiang Cixi before, and everyone is even more wary of Gongsun Yue's strength.

But unexpectedly, if they really compared, Jiang Cixi actually defeated Gongsun Yue with just one move.

This is simply a crushing defeat.

The people of the Gongsun family hurriedly helped Gongsun Yue up.

Gongsun Yue was still a little unconvinced. He stared at Jiang Cixi closely, "Jiang Cixi, what on earth is going on? Clearly, when I competed with you two years ago, you almost lost to me!"

"Are you talking about the fight two years ago at the fighting arena?" Jiang Cixi raised an eyebrow and said calmly, "I didn't want you to lose badly, so I let you win."

Gongsun Yue: "..."

I didn't know what to say for a while.

On the other side, Cheng Jiangui also saw the competition between Jiang Cixi and Gongsun Yue. He stared at Jiang Cixi's back as she left, clenched his palms, and his eyes were gloomy.

"Palace Master, when do we take action?" asked the black-robed man at the side in a deep voice.

Cheng Jiangui narrowed his eyes, a hint of cruelty flashing across his eyes, "In the ancient city, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity."

It is getting dark now. Those who came to the ancient city to participate in the competition will probably choose to go back to the hotel to stay for one night and then leave the ancient city tomorrow.

If Jiang Cixi and Jiang Yusheng left the ancient city and went to the Jiang family's territory, they would no longer have the final say.

The black-robed man rolled his eyes and said, "Why don't we take Jiang Cixi and Jiang Yusheng tonight..."

He made a motion of wiping his neck.

Cheng Jiangui curled his lips, and a look of determination flashed across his eyes.

-

Lin Yusheng and Jiang Cixi returned to the hotel where they had stayed before.

She was about to go back to her room when she heard someone calling her.

"Miss."

Lin Yusheng turned around and saw Jiang You, Jiang Sui and the others.

"Is there a problem?"

Jiang You was a little embarrassed, but he still mustered up the courage to step forward. He looked at Lin Yusheng, lowered his head and said, "I'm sorry, Miss."

"I'm sorry?" Lin Yusheng raised an eyebrow. "Why are you saying sorry to me?"

"I apologize for my previous attitude towards you." Jiang You bit his lip and said, "I admit that we were all very dissatisfied with you before and said bad things about you behind your back. It was all because of Jiang Yi's matter, so we..."

Hearing this, Lin Yusheng smiled and said, "It's okay, it's no big deal. I don't blame you."

Jiang You was stunned for a moment, then looked up and met Lin Yusheng's smiling eyes, then quickly looked away. "Thank you for not arguing with us, Jiang Yusheng. We had too many misunderstandings about you before, and we will change."

The others also echoed, "That's right, Miss, we won the game today thanks to you. We are all truly impressed by you, you are simply too strong."

"We were too self-righteous before. If it weren't for you today, I'm afraid we would have been abused by the Ten Thousand Buddhas Hall."

"Well, you must be tired now, right? Go back to your room and rest. We'll head back to the castle tomorrow."

"Okay, Miss, you should have a good rest too."

Lin Yusheng watched them return to the room and then returned to his room.

After Lin Yusheng returned to his room and ate the dinner sent by the hotel, he did not rest immediately. Instead, he sat on the bed and closed his eyes to rest.

Nothing can happen tonight.

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Yusheng saw that it was getting dark outside the window, so he stood up and walked out of the hotel quietly.

As soon as Lin Yusheng walked out of the hotel, countless figures secretly heard the news and followed him.

There was also a black figure who went back to report the news.

"Palace Master, the situation has changed. Jiang Yusheng suddenly left the hotel."

Cheng Jiangui frowned when he heard this, "Where is she going in the middle of the night?"

The man in black shook his head. "I don't know about that. I only saw her heading south."

The south is a sparsely populated area.

The man in black thought for a moment and then said, "I think she is out for a walk."

Because when Jiang Yusheng walked out of the hotel, his posture was too relaxed, and he really looked like he was going out for a stroll.

Cheng Jiangui's eyebrows furrowed, and he snorted coldly, "She still has the mind to go out for a walk? She really doesn't know how to live or die!"

He ordered, "Send out thirteen top-level ancient warriors to capture her alive! Once we get to the right place, do it!"

There were many people living in the hotel, so it was difficult for them to take action. Now that Jiang Yusheng ran to a sparsely populated area, didn't he give them the opportunity to take action?

"Yes."

-

Lin Yusheng walked to the edge of a lake.

The lake blocked her way forward.

Behind her, thirteen masked figures had gathered silently.

They lurked in the dark, staring at Lin Yusheng like ghosts.

Seeing that Lin Yusheng was blocked by the lake, they jumped out one after another, forming a semicircle to surround Lin Yusheng.

Lin Yusheng, with his back to them, could clearly hear footsteps coming from thirteen directions, but he didn't turn around. He just looked at the calm lake and said calmly, "Thirteen people may not be enough."

"It would be better to call your Palace Master."

The thirteen masked killers were stunned for a moment when they heard this.

From beginning to end, the girl never looked at them once, but she accurately judged their number.

This is a very strong perception. Even if you close your eyes, everything around you is visible.

The leading killer held a scimitar in his hand, his ghostly eyes fixed on her. He said in a gloomy voice, "Will you come with us voluntarily, or will we cripple you and drag you away?"

"What if I choose neither?"

Lin Yusheng turned around.

Under the night sky, the girl's face was as cold as the moonlight, yet extremely beautiful.

Those eyes were also very vivid, with the power to bewitch people.

"Then you're courting death!" A murderous intent flashed in the killer's eyes as he gripped the scimitar, and he ordered, "Go!"

At the command, the twelve ancient warriors should have rushed towards Lin Yusheng regardless of everything.

But they didn't.
