"Junior sister Qingxue, take these herbs to nourish your body, and we will set off immediately."
After shaking his head.
Ye Chen immediately smiled and took out a few imperial-class healing herbs that Ouyang Xuan had given to him before leaving from the storage ring. After taking them out, he handed them to Situ Qingxue beside him and said.
"This is……"
"Emperor level herbs?"
After seeing that Ye Chen was willing to take out imperial-level medicinal herbs for himself to heal his injuries, Situ Qingxue's cheeks suddenly turned slightly red, and then she couldn't help it.
"good."
"These emperor-level herbs should be enough to restore all the injuries in your body, and they should even help you make a small breakthrough in your cultivation."
"You should take the medicinal herbs first and nurse yourself back to health. We will set off tomorrow."
After nodding, Ye Chen suddenly spoke.
"Well, thank you, Senior Brother Ye!"
After thinking of Ye Chen's previous performance in the ruins, Situ Qingxue didn't hesitate at all. Then she nodded quickly and agreed.
And on one side.
Situ Gang saw the scene in front of him.
The whole person shook his head with a hint of helplessness and had no choice but to acquiesce.
After all, for him.
If he can get Ye Chen's help, maybe Ye Chen can help the Situ family solve some problems in the next first-class family power competition.
Besides, he was also quite curious.
What are the forces and family behind Ye Chen?
…
Early the next morning.
The crowd then set off from Situ's Mansion in a mighty manner.
After riding the flying monster for half a day, he arrived at the capital of the Dongxuan Empire.
Inside the Imperial Capital Competition Arena.
I saw that the entire competition arena was in the shape of a round inverted fighting, with the lowest position being the smallest, and there was only a ring of several hundred meters for competitions.
As for above the ring, there are spectator seats one after another. At the same time, the entire spectator seats get higher as you go up, and the more people they can accommodate.
And at this time.
I saw two young men from the family competing on the stage.
The leader is a young man in his early twenties, whose strength is around the Martial Emperor Realm. He is holding a double halberd and looking at the opponent in front of him with a cold face.
As for the other side of the arena.
It was a woman who was also around 20 years old. She looked extremely feminine and charming. At the same time, her clothes were extremely revealing, which made everyone feel thirsty for a while.
But, if you look carefully.
It can be discovered that the strength of this woman is still higher than that of this young man. At the same time, the opponent has various poison darts and other hidden weapons hidden in his body.
Once you are a little careless.
It is very likely that he will be injured by this woman's hidden weapon.
"Whoosh!"
The next moment.
The feminine woman laughed sweetly, and then dozens of poisonous darts suddenly shot out from Bai Jiu's fingers, shooting directly towards the young man not far away.
In every poisonous dart.
They all contain extremely powerful and terrifying poison!
It doesn't even require any moves or techniques. Just relying on the poison in the poison dart, once it hits, the young man will probably lose any fighting ability on the spot.
Suddenly, the young man saw dozens of poison darts shooting towards his location.
The whole person's face changed slightly.
Then he quickly retreated, trying to dodge these poisonous darts first.
However, if this is the case.
He completely lost the opportunity to attack, and could only be forced to defend continuously during the next attacks of this feminine woman, thus falling into a disadvantage.
"Senior Brother Ye..."
"Previously, I was injured by the poisonous dart cast by this woman named Zhong Ling. As a result, I lost my ability to fight, and even ended up unconscious in the mansion."
After taking a deep breath.
Situ Qingxue pointed at the feminine woman on the stage, and then spoke.
"I see."
Hearing this, Ye Chen nodded immediately, and then his whole body suddenly realized.
To know.
On the way here, after some explanations from Situ Gang and Situ Qingxue, he finally understood why Situ Qingxue was hurt.
It turned out to be in the Dongxuan Empire.
Every ten years, a competition between families is held to divide the spheres of influence of each family in the empire, as well as some territories, etc.
The competition for spheres of influence and territory is conducted by young warriors under the age of thirty from all parties.
Many young members of the Situ family had been injured previously.
That's why Situ Qingxue had no choice but to take action.
But what I didn't expect was.
Even Situ Qingxue was injured by a member of the Zhong family, a first-class family that is good at making and using poisons, in this imperial family competition, and almost died.
This shows the rivalry between these families.
Quite vicious!
Even if they don't agree with each other, they may be killed!
At the same time, coupled with the fact that the Situ family had just been promoted to become a first-class force, some family forces that were originally first-class families naturally looked down upon the Situ family.
They would even deliberately stumble to make the Situ family retreat in the face of difficulties.
"well……"
"Brother Ye must also know that our Situ family was just a second-rate family before. Now it has just been promoted to a first-rate family. However, there are not many strong young heroes in the mansion."
"Especially compared with these other first-class family forces with deeper foundations, it is not worth mentioning."
"But if we are unable to achieve some results in this imperial family competition, I am afraid that the Situ family will be able to gain very little scope of influence and territory in the future, and there is even the possibility of returning to becoming a second-rate family."
After unable to help sighing, Situ Gang immediately spoke to Ye Chen.
"and……"
"I didn't expect that all the disciples in the Zhong family are quite powerful, especially the female disciple named Zhong Ling, whose strength is even more terrifying."
"Even Qingxue almost fell into the opponent's hands."
After a pause, Situ Gang looked at Situ Qingxue beside him with an apologetic look, and then spoke.
"Bang!"
The next moment.
As soon as he finished speaking, a scream suddenly rang out from the ring, and the young man on the ring was directly blasted away by a palm.
He fell hard under the ring.
At the same time, a jet of black poisonous blood spurted out from his mouth.
