Chapter 9 Ceremony

 That is the city.

This city, which is horizontal, vertical, square, and everything is neat and orderly, has stood neatly in Daze County for many years.

It is said that it was not like this before. Although it was regular, it was not as demanding as it is now. It seemed that every detail had to be symmetrical.

 But not many people can tell clearly what it was like before.

 It is difficult for people living in a city to notice the subtle changes in a city. People always accept it slowly and get used to it slowly.

 As for outsiders...

 Except when the Seven Star Tower Secret Realm is open, there are never many outsiders coming to the city.

Among all the top famous families in Daqi, the most closed one is the Osawada family. People know why.

Since the person whose name people avoided moved into the auxiliary building, there has been less and less talk about this city and the auxiliary building.

 What is not good to discuss?

 There is no need to seek death for a madman.

 After all, if you simply want to die, you can choose a more comfortable way to die.

Tian Xili, the head of the Tian clan, Gaochanghou, is currently in Linzi to participate in the ceremony. Tian Huanwen, another powerful divine presence in the clan, is presiding over the overall situation overseas.

 But the whole city is still running so calmly and monotonously, without any ripples.

 Because that one... hates waves.

 Political wisdom and talent are outside the scope of this, that is, city officials only need to know two things. First, it is best not to cause trouble for that person. Second, it is best not to cause trouble yourself.

 Because that person’s way of solving the problem was too simple. So simple that there was no chance to make amends, let alone regret.

 It’s a nice day today.

 Because of the grand ceremony far away in Linzi, the weather in the entire Qi State will not be bad today.

 “People ask the sky to open up its face, and the sky must open up its face.”

 This is a very colorful sentence in the history of spiritual practice. There are several legendary sages who match this sentence. I don’t know who said it. But the art of changing celestial phenomena has become simple since then.

Of course, this "simple" is only a relative concept, but for a world-powerful country like Qi Guo, simplicity can be simple.

At this moment, there are no traces of drifting clouds, the sky is clear and vast, and the sun shines down on the city.

A man of medium height wearing a cloak came from the other end of the official road and walked in through the open city gate. His pace was leisurely and unhurried.

City guard Tian Sifu yawned lazily, with some sleepiness at the end of summer lingering on his eyelids.

 In Daze County, no one dares to cause trouble for the Tian family.

 In Jicheng, Tian's family has no trouble.

 So the job of guarding the city is really boring.

But when this yawn came out, he suddenly woke up, quickly adjusted his posture, and stood still without looking away.

 “Mom, you’re so relaxed.” He thought a little uneasily.

No matter how boring it is, there are rules for defending a city.

Jicheng is a city that pays great attention to "rules".

People have already known the rules of this city many times and have a very deep understanding of them. There is no need or desire to be reminded again.

 The man in the cloak didn't care about the mood of the guards.

He followed the entering team into the city gate, stood on the street, and looked around.

People were passing by in a hurry on the street. Whoever saw him occasionally just glanced at him out of curiosity.

People in Jicheng seem to be extremely busy, too busy to tolerate curiosity.

 There are almost identical houses on both sides of the street. The eaves, doors and windows follow the same pattern, almost mirroring them. Even the signboards of each store are in the same style.

The people in the shop are different, but they all wear similar styles of clothes. It seems that in the city, people from all walks of life have a certain style of wearing what they wear.

This is really a very strict city.

 “Hey! What about you? Don’t stand in the middle of the road!”

 At the city gate, a guard scolded.

Tian Sifu kept his eyes straight. Maintaining order was also the duty of a guard, and he was accustomed to these things.

 Looking forward from here, there is a strange sense of order in the whole street.

There seems to be an invisible line in the middle of the street, dividing the crowd in the entire street into two halves.

 There is a clear distinction between what comes and what goes.

 And the man in the cloak stood exactly on the invisible center line, which was quite abrupt and eye-catching.

 “Oh, okay, sorry.” The man in the cloak apologized obediently.

  This is a male voice with some vicissitudes of life.

 The apology was very sincere, but he did not really get out of the way. His feet seemed to be nailed down, motionless, and he was still stuck in the middle of the road.

He looked around and sighed to himself: "This place is different from before."

"What's the matter with you? I'm talking to you, can't you understand?" The guard who shouted to drive him away became angry, walked over with a knife in his hand, and said sternly: "Do you want to die!?"

The cloaked man didn't even turn his head, and pressed his hand with his backhand.

The air gathered into a huge translucent hand, fell from the sky, and crushed the guard into mincemeat on the spot!

 “Ahhh!”

 Screams were heard everywhere, and the hurried crowd dispersed.

 The guards guarding the city immediately unsheathed their sabers, and some also beat the drums.

But this man was still standing in the middle of the road, as if he was indifferent to all this.

 “There are always people who talk well, and there are always people who talk well.”

He shook his head and said, "It's you people named Tian who don't understand!"

Tian Sifu pulled out the standard long sword, his hands were shaking, and he was shouting indiscriminately, but he did not move forward even half a step. Everyone could see that this man in a cloak was not something they could deal with...

For some reason, he was out of danger at this moment, and he inexplicably thought that the guard who had just been killed was not actually named Tian. He was named Tian... Of course, his Tian was not that good, otherwise he wouldn't have

Guard the city gate here.

 But the legs are softer.

The man who brazenly killed the guard took off his cloak and threw it aside on the street connecting the city gate.

Whoosh!

The cloak made of ordinary material whizzed away and flew away. The sound suddenly became fierce and turned straight into a shop, knocking a smooth hole out of the entire house!

After the cloak was taken off, his middle-aged face with a stubble and a sigh was revealed.

This man was standing on this long street, shouting loudly: "We have been friends for many years, and we have not sent greetings for a long time. Fufeng Liu family, Liu Xiao came to visit! Who is in the Tian family!?"

 The Fufeng Liu family’s only powerful divine being, Liu Xiao!

 Liu Xiao personally took action and led his men to besiege and kill Tian Anping in Changming County, but was defeated by the opponent and failed to succeed!

 The feud between the Osawada clan!

On this day when Tian Huanwen and Tian Xili are not here, it is July when Tian Anping's ten-year sentence is about to expire.

 He came to visit!

 He asked who was in the Tian family, but he didn’t think he needed to see anyone else.

 The sound was so loud that it overwhelmed the whole city.

In Tian Sifu's horrified eyes, Liu Xiao stood up and flew quickly over the chaotic crowd, drawing a sharp arc in the air, aiming directly at the Auxiliary Building in the center of the city.

!

 …

 …

 Linzi.

 In front of the Imperial Ancestral Temple and on the square, everyone looked solemn.

The ceremonial officer held the edict and loudly announced in front of the Emperor Dan: "...Now there is a person who bears the name of the Chongxuan family. He is of peerless elegance and will fight for the country. He will show off his power at Guanhe Tower and let the world know that we are a great hero of the Qi Dynasty... bestow the Yuan Stone."

One hundred pills, a piece of Huangjie's top-notch Taoism! Follow your heart and act accordingly. You should never forget Qingyun's aspirations and always cherish the virtues of a long life. I admire this!"

Zhong Xuanzun, dressed in white as snow, bowed to express his gratitude, and his appearance was still impeccable.

 The reward is not light, but for Chong Xuanzun, it is not heavy either.

However, everyone also knows that the Yellow River Club has not won second place in the past, so there will be no such a grand ceremony. The fact that Chongxuan Zun was able to get this award is somewhat due to the glory of winning the championship this time.

 But then again.

 The words "peerless elegance" were read out in the imperial edict, which fully demonstrated Emperor Qi's expectations for him.

 It can be regarded as a confirmation of the so-called "taking away the elegance of peers" that has been circulated among the people.

 Other rewards and the like are not that important.

 And this elegant young man in white clothes still has a faint smile on his lips, showing no arrogance or humiliation.

 Zhong Xuanzun is willing to play a supporting role, which shows his unparalleled self-confidence.

Knowing that today was Jiang Wang's home court, he had no intention of avoiding the edge.

Even if he left the show early and found any reason to retreat, no one would say anything to him. After all, his performance on the river viewing platform was obvious to all, and everyone knew what a proud person he was.

 But he participated in this ceremony as usual and walked with Jiang Wang, who was destined to be the most dazzling today.

 Watching Jiang Wang’s glory.

 His arrogance cannot be expressed in words.

 There were some people who wanted to see his joke, and their contempt was also reflected behind his fluttering white clothes.

 The title of the Yellow River Society is undoubtedly the highest honor.

 But such a famous name is not enough to suppress his Zhongxuanzun.

Jiang Qingyang is certainly dazzling, why should he avoid the edge?
