I am a living immortal.

Chapter 312: The Imperial Court Fuels the Fire

"If you could beat me, you would have beaten me now?" The old goat continued expressionlessly. Although it was not visible on his face, there was still a hint of smile in his tone.

The human in front of me is still very interesting.

"........."

Did Chen Tao mean he didn't care about face?

"But you do have a point. The news has spread everywhere now. Although I heard about it a long time ago, at this critical moment, those people did this. Wouldn't you feel uncomfortable?"

"Not really. When an enemy comes, we must fight him. When water comes, we must block it with earth. Being unhappy will not only affect your mood, but what is going to happen will still happen. Actually, you are right about one thing. I should have killed those people directly. But there is no point in regretting it now. Let it go."

The old goat didn't show much emotional fluctuation from beginning to end.

To him, this kind of thing was just a joke. When he was in a good mood, he would play with them, but when he was in a bad mood, no one could find him.

He looked at the spring atmosphere in the yard that had not yet faded. Even the koi fish carved on the porcelain bowl in Chen Tao's hand was swimming in the bowl, but he didn't know it.

"By the way, what is your relationship with those people?"

This question made Chen Tao stunned for a moment, and then he answered: "Ah, them, when you are in the world, this kind of thing happens often, and it doesn't have to be related. I see injustice and help them. There is nothing specific about me just because I am unhappy with them. If I have to say, it may just be a big hatred accumulated from small things." Chen Tao said truthfully.

"Do they still think that this martial arts world is still the same one where aristocratic families flourished? Although the current emperor has never made any moves to clean up the mess, the subtle influence of things has silently spread. These entangled aristocratic families in Dayu's martial arts world have long since declined."

"They can't cause any trouble. Honestly, if they hadn't fallen on hard times, I wouldn't have dared to clash with them. Now, if I'm unhappy with them, I'm unhappy with them. If I want to fight them, I'm going to fight them. They'll just use some small tricks, which are harmless."

Chen Tao possessed a chivalrous spirit, a classic example. He would stand up for the weak and help the weak, or rob the rich to help the poor. This was why he could even fight in the street, even if they had nothing to do with each other.

Chen Tao ate up his roast chicken and drank the wine in the jar.

"Comfortable!"

He said, then burped, patted his stomach and felt a little embarrassed: "I really drank this wine, is it okay?"

"You've already finished your drink. Isn't it a bit late to ask?"

"Isn't this embarrassing?"

"Don't worry, my friend doesn't think much of this wine. Just drink it. Who knows, he might not even remember that this wine exists." The old goat said casually.

"I really don't understand who you are." Chen Tao has a good alcohol tolerance. After drinking this jar of wine, his face didn't turn red and his heart didn't beat fast. You might think he was drinking water.

"I'll scare you to death if I tell you, do you want to hear it?"

Chen Tao immediately waved his hand: "Well, don't tell me. With the way you guys are acting, it might really scare me to death. It's not bad now, just keep it in your mind. Jiading Prefecture is going to be lively again."

"You look like you're looking forward to it," the old goat asked.

"Of course, if this incident hadn't been caused by me, I would be happy to join in the fun and I really enjoy it. You know, making friends through martial arts hasn't happened for many years. Now that Dayu's martial arts world is half-dead, this competition may be the most lively one in the past few decades." Chen Tao said with a beaming eyebrow.

"You're looking forward to it now."

"You don't care, do you? I'll join in, too. Then I'll get to know the world of martial arts. Of course, I still really want to fight you."

"Aren't you afraid of being beaten to death by me?" The old goat was not surprised.

As mentioned before, Chen Tao, while not particularly skilled, was a true Jianghu man. Drinking, eating, and settling scores were all things he longed for. Martial arts competitions were part of the routine, a true Jianghu man. Perhaps this was what a Jianghu man should be like.

The old goat had no idea what Dayu's world was like.

But he had seen the underworld of the Yan Dynasty before; it was lively and interesting. He could have some fun while waiting for Su Mu to come back.

Chen Tao rolled his eyes: "You have a very poisonous tongue."

"Okay, since you don't care, that's fine. I'm afraid Jiading will be very lively during this period. I'll treat you to tea next time." Chen Tao stood up and picked up the leftovers in front of him.

"Do you want me to send you off?"

"No need, I have hands and feet, no need to be so polite, see you later." Chen Tao stood up, waved his hand, pushed the door and left.

The old goat had absolutely no emotional intelligence. When Chen Tao said he didn't need to send it off, he just stood there without moving, showing no intention of sending it off.

When the gate was closed, the spring spirit that had been suppressed by the old goat burst out in an instant. In an instant, the whole yard was filled with spring spirit. It would not be an exaggeration to describe this moment as "a riot of demons".

The koi fish in the bowl that Chen Tao had just drunk from jumped out in a few leaps and kept wandering around the porcelain bowl.

This appearance reminded the old goat of Xuan Mo.

I don't know when Su Mu and the others will come back. After covering the tea leaves and putting them away, the old goat was in a good mood. He also found some fun.

"Come on, have some fun with your goat uncle."

The summer in Jiading Prefecture is hot and muggy, making it quite uncomfortable. But most people here are pretty much used to it. Today, the weather is still sunny, and the ground smells like it's being burned. The scorching sun is distorting the air.

But more and more people came to Jiading Prefecture from all directions to attend the martial arts conference.

The streets were filled with swordsmen, guns and swordsmen, waiting for a process to be finalized. The imperial court was behind the scenes, fanning the flames. Although the competition was initiated by those who wanted to cheat the old goat, their voices gradually faded. But the topic remained the same: fighting to make friends. It was rumored that a heavyweight from the imperial court would be dispatched to preside over the competition, and the top ten would receive entry to the Imperial Palace's Sutra Library.

Dayu had never been ravaged by war, so many of its ancient books were not destroyed. Among them were not only martial arts secrets, but also the inheritance of the lineage of gods, ghosts, and sorcerers, which were extremely rare and valuable.

Therefore, this reward is unparalleled in its appeal to many people. This is also the reason why the number of people coming to Jiading Prefecture has increased dramatically, and many people have confidence in themselves.
