But in this way, it shocked a group of people even more!
Because the laughing scholar himself said that Jian Wuming was defeated! Then it must be a defeat!
The key is that Jian Wuming personally admitted it. Doesn't that mean that the news that has been circulating everywhere in the past few days is true?
The laughing scholar left quickly, but no one dared to question what he said. At the same time, the news spread in a short time.
Naturally, it is impossible for a peerless genius on the list of kings to talk nonsense. The key point is that anyone who knows the Laughing Scholar knows that this person is playing with the world, and he is uninhibited, good and evil!
But after so many years since his debut, he has always been consistent with his words, so his words naturally convinced many people.
The most critical point.
The sword has no life!
Even he himself did not show up to refute this matter, which made many people in Langya City couldn't help but murmur.
Which one of the geniuses on the king list is not full of arrogance? If he was really framed, he would have shown up long ago, but now, no one saw Jian Wuming coming forward to clarify.
This undoubtedly only shows that the news circulated by the outside world is, nine times out of ten, true!
"Jian Wuming actually lost to a nobody?"
"He may not be an unknown person, but he can make Fairy Xue Yun, who is ranked third on the Goddess List, fall in love with her, and can defeat Jian Wuming, who is ninth on the King List. I think this person must be someone on the King List! Even a person on the King List.
Someone among the top five on the king list!"
Someone was extremely confident and smiled lightly.
Everyone also nodded.
yes!
Who is Fairy Xueyun? It is definitely impossible for an unknown person to fall in her eyes. If she can be so enamored with her and even go to Shenyun State with her, it proves that this person's origins are extraordinary!
Otherwise, how can we deserve it?
"I just don't know which one on the list of kings it is?"
Someone else murmured in a low voice that he was not the only one who had doubts. Now as the news intensified and spread more and more outrageously, I don’t know how many people were trying to find out who the person who could win Fairy Xueyun’s heart was.
who?
"Could it be the true inheritance of a certain Immortal Sect?"
Some people speculate.
But soon someone shook his head and said: "It shouldn't be possible. The true inheritance of ordinary immortal sects may not be worthy of Fairy Xueyun."
"It's not an ordinary Immortal Sect. Could it be a genius from the three ancient Immortal Sects?"
"It's very possible! This Yingxue Villa is not as simple as the ordinary Immortal Sect. I heard that in addition to the old lady, Yingxue Villa also has a deep connection with the number one swordsman in Kyushu. Many people say that that person was
Therefore, I rejected the invitations from the three ancient immortal sects because I wanted to silently protect Yingxue Villa from behind."
"Yes, so Yingxue Villa has not mentioned a single word about being able to travel with Fairy Xueyun. It has been made clear that they recognize this person's identity! After much deliberation, the only candidate who can satisfy Yingxue Villa is the king.
The genius on the list, and maybe he is from the three ancient immortal sects!"
All kinds of speculations, rumors, and analyzes abound.
Even outside Ziyun Prefecture, the news spread all over the country.
I don’t know how many pairs of eyes are staring at me now! Want to see who it is?
There are still many people who are quite unconvinced. Those people are all geniuses from various forces who admire Fairy Xueyun. In their eyes, unless they really see this person and prove that he is stronger than them, they will never give up!
Soon, some disciples and even geniuses from large and small forces came together and declared that they must find that person! Challenge him face to face!
"Not everyone is worthy of being on the Goddess List. It seems that this person has caused big trouble this time!"
"Yes, but if he is really someone on the king list, and he comes from the three ancient immortal sects, it would be a good story."
Just when everyone in the world focused their attention on this matter.
Ziyunzhou.
Langya City.
A man and a woman walked into the city together.
Soon the news spread.
No matter how low-key you are, with so many pairs of eyes, someone will eventually notice it.
The man and woman who entered Langya City were none other than Li Ye and Fairy Xueyun.
The purpose of their coming here is also very simple. There happens to be one Taoist platform in Ziyun State that can transmit across regions in Langya City.
But as they arrived, everyone in Langya City exploded.
Many people heard the news and rushed there as soon as possible to see the true appearance.
There are also some self-proclaimed geniuses and people from well-known families who have a menacing past.
“It’s really lively.”
In a restaurant in Langya City, one of the people smiled lightly and lightly lit the folding fan on the table, looking like he was watching a good show.
And in front of him, there was another person sitting. He said nothing, his face was as cold as ice, and he didn't care about the things outside at all. He just drank one drink after another.
"Not interested."
Seeing him like this, the laughing scholar couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Jian Wuming, you are really boring. Is there nothing interesting in your eyes except fighting and your sword?"
"yes."
The laughing scholar smiled bitterly. It turned out that in the restaurant at this time, besides him, the person in front of him was none other than the ninth genius on the King List, Jian Wuming, who had fought against Li Ye once before!
But now, it seems that the injuries from that battle have healed, but Jian Wuming's expression has become colder than that battle.
The two of them are both on the king list. Although they are not good friends, they are still old acquaintances. Speaking of the fact that they had fought against each other several times and won and lost, they can be regarded as sympathetic to each other.
Unless there was a life-and-death feud, when they met, they would either drink or get into fights.
But now, it is obvious that the laughing scholar is not interested in taking action. He is more interested in the person in the rumors than fighting with Jian Wuming.
"I knew you would say that, so you fought with that person. Are you really defeated?"
The two have fought against each other more than once, so Scholar Xiao is very aware of Jian Wuming's strength. Even if he ranks higher than Jian Wuming on the King List, there is no guarantee that he can steadily suppress Jian Wuming!
Even outsiders didn't know that the two of them had played against each other three times in private! In the end, the laughing scholar only won once, and the other two times they were tied.
Of course, no matter which time they fight, it is not a fight to the death. Both of them know that they still have their own trump cards. But judging from these three fights, it can be concluded that even if Jian Wuming is slightly weaker than him, he will really fight to the death.
In a battle, it is really difficult to predict who will win or lose.
"yes."
Jian Wuming nodded and admitted without hesitation.
Although it was not the first time he heard this answer, the ridiculous scholar still found it incredible. He shook his head and said: "That is really exciting. As you said, that kid is not on the list of kings. I didn't expect that there are nine states in the world."
, How can there be such a low-key person, who obviously has the strength of the top ten in the king list, but has never made a splash?"
Regardless of whether it is Jian Wuming or Xiao Shusheng, both of them are actually very special people on the king list because they are not from very high backgrounds.
Jian Wuming was a casual cultivator, and his swordsmanship was even more frightening, while Scholar Xiao was a disciple of an aristocratic family, but the Xianmen family he came from was not considered elite at all. Originally, the most powerful member of the entire family was just the close family.
A main-level low-grade immortal.
Speaking of which, it is comparable to the three major families in Tianyuan City.
But the Laughing Scholar is the most evil genius in his family for thousands of years. He is at his peak when he debuts! He was once unknown, but he directly killed the ancestor of another feuding family for the first time!
And the ancestor of that feuding family was a truly low-grade immortal.
"It is gold that always shines."
Jian Wuming took a sip of the wine and said coldly.
During this period of time, he had actually been reminiscing in his mind about the initial fight with Li Ye. The more he recalled it, the more frightened he became.
From his debut to the present, he thinks that he has achieved the ultimate in swordsmanship, even in addition to his own cultivation level! He thinks that even a peerless swordsman at the level of Immortal King may not necessarily be able to surpass him in the true meaning of swordsmanship.
But this view completely changed after meeting Li Ye.
"A good man is like gold that always shines. It seems that you think highly of him."
The laughing scholar was even more surprised. He knew Jian Wuming's character very well. This guy was simply a lonely lone wolf who didn't associate with others at all.
Even if it was him, Jian Wuming took the initiative to challenge him three times in a row, and this was how they formed an indissoluble bond.
And because neither of them came from the Immortal Sect, they were different from the others on the King List, so they had a little sympathy for each other.
Even so, he had never heard such high praise from Jian Wuming.
Obviously, in Jian Wuming's eyes, the rumored person who could make Fairy Xueyun fall in love was better than him, Xiao Shusheng.
People in the outside world are talking a lot, and they are all speculating whether Li Ye's identity is a certain genius on the king list, or a true successor of one of the three ancient immortal sects.
But Jian Wuming and Xiao Shusheng knew otherwise.
As for why the Laughing Scholar appeared in Langya City, it seems to be related to this incident.
"Originally I wasn't very interested in this matter, but since you speak so highly of him, it makes me a little more interested."
The laughing scholar smiled slightly, and it was obvious that he was also aiming at Li Ye.
Of course, he was more out of curiosity than others! After all, he was very familiar with Jian Wuming. How could he easily let go of someone who could be recommended by Jian Wuming like this?
"He is no match for you."
Jian Wuming raised his head and said coldly.
The laughing scholar was inevitably a little surprised when he heard this, but before he could ask the reason, he heard Jian Wuming continue: "But once you do it, you will die."
hiss!
The laughing scholar couldn't laugh. He didn't refute or disbelieve. Instead, he stared deeply at Jian Wuming for a long time.
The relationship between the two of them, who are sympathetic and yet rivals, makes them understand each other better than themselves.
Therefore, Xiao Shusheng could tell that Jian Wuming was not joking, but that he really believed it.
"So you lost?"
"Yes, my sword told me that if I didn't hold it that time, no matter the outcome, I would be the one who died in the end."
Jian Wuming's tone was calm, as if he was telling something that had nothing to do with him, but precisely because of this, the laughing scholar hesitated.
He is not Jian Wuming, nor is he a martial arts idiot.
Although he is also infatuated with the Avenue of Immortality, compared to Jian Wuming's character who is addicted to swords as much as his life, the laughing scholar prefers to play in the world.
So for people like him, life is particularly important.
On the contrary, face and dignity are not so important.
That's when.
There were many people in the restaurant, and it seemed that they were all heading for this Immortal Sect Conference.
After all, it is a grand event that happens once every 100,000 years. Especially for some young people from the ancestral realm of Kyushu, the Immortal Sect Conference is equivalent to a great opportunity to make people famous and make a name for themselves.
All the major immortal sects in the nine states of the world!
If you can stand out in front of countless people, for many people, it will not only be famous, but also more likely to be favored by a certain palace master or even the Immortal King, and be accepted as a direct disciple!
That is definitely a carp leaping over a dragon gate, flying up a branch and turning into a phoenix.
But now.
Those people were discussing various news circulating in the outside world in the past few days.
"I heard that Fairy Xueyun has entered the city."
"Yes, I have also heard that. It is said that there is indeed a young man traveling with Fairy Xueyun. He should be the person in the rumors."
"It makes people look forward to and curious about, what is the identity of that boy? Can he win the heart of Fairy Xueyun?"
These people are talking as if no one else is around.
They didn't notice that not far from them, two geniuses on the king list were sitting.
The laughing scholar took a look and laughed in a low voice: "I'm really looking forward to it. If those people know that this person has no origin, just like a blank piece of paper, will they be shocked?"
Jian Wuming heard this and had no reaction.
But just then.
He suddenly looked up.
The laughing scholar also noticed it, and gradually a strange expression appeared on his face, and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
"Cao Cao will be here as soon as you say Cao Cao!"
he laughed.
A man and a woman happened to enter the restaurant.
The woman's appearance was extremely beautiful, and her temperament was out of this world. She was like a goddess descending from the nine heavens. As for the man, he seemed a bit ordinary, but his eyes were bright, and there was a faint hint of the stars and the sea.
The two people were Li Ye and Fairy Xueyun who entered Langya City.
While laughing at the scholar and Jian Wuming noticed them, Li Ye actually noticed a familiar atmosphere in the restaurant, and then saw Jian Wuming.
On the other hand, he didn't recognize the person next to Jian Wuming.
"He is fifth on the list of kings, the laughing scholar."
Fairy Xueyun whispered. She recognized Scholar Laughing. Although she was a little surprised as to why he came, she still reminded him secretly.
Fifth on the king list!
Li Ye nodded secretly. He was now very familiar with this king list.
Jian Wuming had once fought against him, allowing him to truly see how perverted the geniuses on the list of kings in the ancestral world were.
Now there is another one, the key is that his ranking on the king list is still above Jian Wuming.
Of course at this time.
Jian Wuming and Xiao Shusheng did not say anything, but other people in the restaurant saw Li Ye.
For a time, everyone's eyes fell on the two of them, especially Fairy Xueyun, which attracted the attention of most people.
"What a beautiful woman!"
“There is such a peerless beauty in the world!”
"Wait a minute, that jade pendant on this girl is the symbol of Yingxue Villa! She is the third lady of Yingxue Villa, Fairy Xueyun!"
