Previously, he said that the top eight competitors had already been selected. On the night before the top eight contestants fought, Jiang Feng was in a bad mood as he strolled around the night market. He accidentally came to the inn Liu Bingbing stayed at, and even started fighting with the warrior Zhao Pingyuan who was protecting Liu Bingbing.

Seeing that it was Jiang Feng, Liu Bingbing's heart was very happy, and she immediately ordered: "Plains, quickly stop. Shopkeeper, can I trouble you to prepare a few small dishes and a jug of wine to bring to my room. After saying that, she threw down ten taels of silver and the shopkeeper hurriedly came out to pick them up. She carefully wiped them and put them away in her arms before saying with a smile, "It's fine, it's fine. Miss, please wait. I'll go and get it." The shopkeeper laughed merrily as he and the waiter walked into the inner hall. Zhao Pingyuan calmed down and said: "Miss, this fellow's attitude is crazy, disturbing Miss's rest. I will definitely teach him a lesson today." Liu Bingbing said in a stern voice: "No, this Young Master Chiang is my good friend, hurry up and invite him up." Jiang Feng knew that Zhao Pingyuan did not dare to go against Liu Bingbing's intentions, and would definitely not make a move on him anymore. He kept the Cold Iron Silver Lance and said to Liu Bingbing: "Miss Liu, I also have something wrong with me, and since you want to rest, in my opinion, this one will take my leave first. We'll discuss this further next time if we have the chance." Liu Bingbing was anxious: "Young Master Chiang, please wait a moment, I've told you to prepare the food and wine, I'm not in a good mood, you stay and sit with me for a while." Zhao Pingyuan quickly replied: "Miss, please do not. This person's background is unknown, how can I come into contact with you alone?" Liu Bingbing slightly frowned and said, "Plains, don't tell me that you didn't hear me just say that this young master is my good friend? How could it be someone with an unknown identity? " Zhao Pingyuan could hear the unhappiness in Liu Bingbing's tone, but he did not dare disobey her. He could only obey and said to Jiang Feng: "My family's young miss will invite you up." Jiang Feng wiped off the sweat on his face, and then suddenly stopped in front of him when he walked over, because Zhao Pingyuan said softly: "You better not play any tricks, if I find out that you are trying to harm my Young Miss, I will definitely kill you." Jiang Feng deliberately turned his head and said: "Humph, I'll wait!" With that, he went upstairs.

Besides, ever since Faang Xinyao had parted ways with Jiang Feng that day, she hasheasked everywhere, hoping to find out news of his father's safety. However, in the past two days, she did not have a clue. At this moment, she was walking towards her own inn. She seemed to have discovered something and deliberately turned into an alleyway. She suddenly stopped and said loudly, "Come out, what is your motive for following me for so long?" A young master dressed in a casual white robe walked out from behind him. He said with a magnetic voice, "Miss Faang has good hearing indeed. You discovered me so quickly." Faang Xinyao turned her head and saw such a handsome young master, she could not help but be shocked, then stabilised her mind, and asked coldly: "Who exactly are you? Why did you always follow me, and how did you know my identity? " He looked at Faang Xinyao's oval face and said slowly: "Miss Faang is at ease, I am not a commoner or a disciple, I just want to ask Miss what is your purpose in coming to the capital?" Faang Xinyao knew that she had not come with good intentions, his right hand held onto the treasured sword tightly as she said: "You still haven't answered my question, and have even asked me the opposite. If you don't tell me the reason why, don't blame me for being rude." After Young Master Liu heard this, he smiled and said: "Don't be angry, I said that I have no ill intentions. I guess that the reason my young miss went to such lengths to get to the capital, was it because of your father, am I right?" Faang Xinyao thought: Who is this person exactly? Why do you know everything about my affairs like the back of your hand? Could it be that Young Master Jiang betrayed me? Impossible, he shouldn't be a despicable person. Seeing that Faang Xinyao did not reply, she continued to speak: "Miss Faang, I am the son of the prime minister, Master Liu. Before you explain your purpose in coming to the capital, I think it would be better for you to come with me!" Faang Xinyao stared at him and asked coldly: Why should I go with you, do you want to go head-on? Young Master Liu laughed and shook his head, then said: "I believe that in the dynasty, aside from my father, no one else can save your father. If Miss Faang is still filial, I think it's best if you come with me. Of course, if Miss Faang doesn't want to save your father, I won't force you. Faang Xinyao thought for a moment, then said: "Wait a moment, I will follow you, you won't dare to do anything to me." Young Master Liu secretly praised in his heart: As expected, she is an unyielding, courageous and scheming woman. Just like this, Faang Xinyao followed Young Master Liu to the residence of Prefect of the Capital City.

Since the Young Master Liu was Liu Shichen's beloved son, entering and exiting the Prefect's mansion was naturally an easy task. He ordered his servants to arrange a good room for Faang Xinyao for her to stay in. Faang Xinyao did not let go of her sword at all, and she was extremely nervous as she said: "Quickly tell me, what exactly are you bringing me here for? What do you need to do to convince your father to let go of my father? " The Young Master Liu poured Faang Xinyao a cup of fragrant tea and said: "Miss Faang, last time when I was in Hangzhou with the decree to capture your father, you weren't there. I think you should have heard from the servants that your father was secretly greedy for a lot of money, and in recent years, he has frequently slandered my father. Faang Xinyao's face revealed an angry look, and said sternly: "My father must have been wrongly accused. My father must have been a government official in Hangzhou for nearly twenty years, and thought of all the good things he has done for the citizens. It must be because of your father's disagreements that he set up this trap and slandered others. It should be your father who is slandering your father. " Young Master Liu made a gesture with his right hand to stop, then said: "Miss Faang, you are very angry today, and I did not manage to get a good understanding of the entire matter. After I ask my father about the situation, you can calm down, and we can continue to talk." Faang Xinyao said disdainfully: "Hmph, you will never have a good ending if you ask your father about it. Since I've already landed in your hands, if you want me to kill or cut me, just do as you say." Young Master Liu took a sip of the strong tea himself, and said: "Miss Faang, this tea is of high quality, please enjoy the taste, as for your father's matter, I will understand the whole story, but before that I will have to trouble Miss Faang to stay here for the time being, I will instruct the maidservants to serve Miss Faang well, I will definitely not allow Miss to wander the world again, and suffer grievances." Faang Xinyao coldly snorted, and said: "Hypocrite, I will not fall for your trick, you honorable person." The Young Master Liu was not angry after hearing that, he only said: "Whether or not I am a righteous person, Miss will know in the future that Miss will not hurt Miss by staying here and eating peacefully, I said that I will not hurt you, it is not early anymore, and since there is a difference between man and woman, I will not disturb Miss's rest, and will take my leave first. In a few days, I will come to visit Miss. " After he finished speaking, he put down the teacup and walked out of his room, and from outside, he heard the voice instructing the servant to serve Faang Xinyao and the others. Faang Xinyao thought that it was his crafty scheme, and ignored it, and thought in her heart: Faang Xinyao, oh Faang Xinyao, you were too careless, falling into the hands of another person, and whether or not I'm dead, I have to think of a way to escape. Young Master Liu suddenly knocked on the door and said: "Miss Faang, please rest early. By the way, this place is heavily guarded, I hope Miss does not take the risk." With that, the Young Master Liu left as well, accompanied by the sound of footsteps.

Liu Bingbing and Jiang Feng had a meal in the tavern, Liu Bingbing told Jiang Feng about his daughter's family matters which were troubling him, but Jiang Feng did it randomly, although she was his friend, but she was his enemy's daughter after all, so he did not dare to make friends with her, furthermore, there was always Zhao Pingyuan guarding outside, so Jiang Feng was not in the mood to say anything else. Jiang Feng followed behind. Zhao Pingyuan's eyes were fixed on Jiang Feng as he said: "Plains, Young Master Chiang and I will go out and stroll in the night market. Wait for me at the inn." Zhao Pingyuan said sternly: "Miss, although this person is Miss's friend, I do not know if he has any ulterior motives, I hope that Miss will not go." Liu Bingbing said unhappily: "Are you here to protect me, or to monitor me? You even want to take care of me when I go out for a bit? " Zhao Pingyuan lowered his head and bowed, "I would not dare to go to the plain, since Miss wants to go out, then I will follow Miss to the plain, and protect Miss the whole journey." Liu Bingbing said: "No need, Young Master Chiang's martial arts are extraordinary, he will protect me well." Zhao Pingyuan said: "The plain is not at ease with this person. If Miss does not want the plain to follow, then I hope that Miss can first kill me and step on my corpse." Hearing what he said, Liu Bingbing pouted: "Hmph, how can you be like this? "Alright, I won't go. You've already said that Ya Xin is gone." Zhao Pingyuan apologized: Please forgive me Plains Crash Miss, the Plains are also doing this for Miss's safety. Liu Bingbing sighed, then said to Jiang Feng: "Young Master Chiang, I originally wanted to bring you to the capital's night market, but now …." Jiang Feng smiled and said: "I thank the Miss Liu for its good intentions, I think it's getting late, I'm afraid the fun night market has already closed up and gone home, if there's a chance, we can go together again." Liu Bingbing's face revealed a smile, and said: "Alright, it's a promise then. Plains, send Young Master Chiang out!" Zhao Pingyuan nodded his head in agreement. Jiang Feng bade farewell to Liu Bingbing, went downstairs, and walked to the door. Zhao Pingyuan said: "Today, the two of us have not won. Jiang Feng cupped his fists and said: "Anytime, I'll be taking my leave." With that, he carried the Cold Iron Silver Lance and leisurely walked away.

Just now, he had eaten and drank with Liu Bingbing for a while. Although he had some matters that he couldn't tell her, for some reason, he no longer felt suppressed and felt much more comfortable. Jiang Feng smiled lightly and was thinking about the time he had with Liu Bingbing. Suddenly, there was a person flying in Jiang Feng's direction with his back facing the front. It was obvious that he was hit by someone. Jiang Feng was shocked, and took the chance to grab onto the clothes on the man's waist. Then, with a spin of his body, he unloaded all of his strength into the air, causing the man to fall onto the ground and spit out a mouthful of blood. A person appeared in front of them.

What about later?

And then we'll see how it breaks down in the next round.
