C504 Hate to be Born in the Royal Family
Just as everyone's attention was focused on the competition, only Guxing was staring blankly at a tall platform behind the arena. There were a few figures sitting on it. They were Chu Feng and the four family heads. Next to Chu Feng stood a graceful figure. It was. . . Rouer!
Guxing almost cried out in shock. In the end, he tried his best to suppress it. However, in the next moment, tears unknowingly flowed out. It was naturally caused by his excitement. It had been a year. She had changed. That tender little girl from the past had already become graceful and graceful. Her appearance was still as beautiful as before, but her temperament had completely changed. She was no longer that delicate and delicate girl in her impression who was more delicate than a flower, but now she was dressed in battle armor. It was hard to describe how valiant and valiant she was. Guxing immediately recognized the long blade on her waist. It was the one that he had given her back then. However, Rouer, who was crying with the knife in her arms, seemed to be gone forever.
Looking at the tremendous changes on her body, Guxing felt an indescribable sadness. How many trials and tribulations did she have to go through to make a person's temperament change completely? He didn't know, but there was one thing he knew. She must have had a hard time these past few days. . .
"Rouer. "
Guxing could not help but exclaim in a low voice. He really wanted to rush over right now and hug her in his arms. He wanted to take good care of and pity her, but he knew that was extremely irrational. He could only try his best to hold back. The nails of the hand holding the sword had already turned white.
Maybe his gaze was too hot and emotional, which made Chu Rouer, who was far away on the high platform, also feel it. She turned her head and looked at him indifferently. Her expression suddenly became a little absent-minded, and then she quickly turned her gaze elsewhere.
Although it was very similar, it was not him in the end. His heart could only accommodate one person in this lifetime. No matter how stunning and outstanding some people were, compared to him, they were not worth mentioning at all.
. . .
"Third brother, third brother ~"
Right at this moment, Mu Han's voice woke Guxing up. Looking at his confused face, Mu Han let out a soft sigh and reminded, "Third brother, it's your turn now. "
Only now did Guxing notice that on the arena, Yin Yi and Lin Xiao, who had fought with him before, had ended their battle. Naturally, it was Lin Xiao who lost. Although his strength was extraordinary, he was still slightly weaker than a true young expert. Guxing wasn't surprised by this result.
At this moment, there was a handsome young man wearing a purple-gold crown on the stage who looked at him with an unfriendly expression. This person was his opponent in this round of competition. He was the Young Master of the Han Family, a first-rate faction in the Luoan City below the four great clans, Han Feng.
Knowing that he had already delayed for quite some time, Guxing immediately did not dare to be neglectful and leaped onto the stage. Right after the grey-robed elder announced the start of the competition, the handsome young man fiercely thrust out several sword strikes at him. Although he deliberately avoided the fatal points, it was obvious that he wanted to show off his strength.
At this moment, there were about two more matches to be won from entering the finals. Guxing decided to continue hiding his strength. Hence, when faced with Han Feng's attack, he did not choose to calmly dodge. Instead, he swiftly pulled out the Dragon Roaring Sword and exchanged a few blows with it. Immediately, there was the sound of metal colliding. The two of them had already exchanged a couple of blows. Under Guxing's deliberate weakness. . . Not long after, his clean clothes were cut in several places by the sword shadow Han Feng shot out. He appeared to be in quite a sorry state.
In terms of cultivation alone, Han Feng was already at the Late Period of Spirit Cultivating Stage, but Guxing had suppressed his cultivation to the peak of the Mid Period of Spirit Cultivating Stage. Therefore, the fact that Guxing was defeated the moment he appeared was also within everyone's expectations. Moreover, everyone originally did not think that this unknown brat could win the competition. It was likely that he had already reached his limit by being able to persist until here.
Han Feng similarly thought the same. Although this brat had won the famous Outer Sky Sword of the younger generation, Mo Rann's cultivation base was only at the peak of the Mid Period of Spirit Cultivating Stage. He was still a step away from him, and although this brat had won in the end. . . Luck played a big role in this victory. In this way, he would be even less of a match for him.
At this stage of the Grand Meeting, it was indeed important to be able to win the competition. However, establishing one's prestige was also something that Han Feng and the others urgently needed to do. In this way, their position as young patriarch would become even more unshakable. Faced with the expectant gazes of everyone, Han Feng felt that even if he had to pay a price, he had to subdue this brat as soon as possible.
"Seventh stance of the Annihilation Sword Skill, Sword Soaring Mountains and Rivers!"
Han Feng laughed coldly. The aura of his entire body soared. He unleashed one of the eleven stances of the Annihilation Sword Technique that he currently grasped, which was quite powerful. When he saw that Guxing had been forced back by his sword, His expression became slightly dispirited, and the fighting intent in his eyes became even stronger. He turned around and thrust his sword at Guxing with lightning speed, not giving him any chance to catch his breath. He was going to be knocked down to the ground in the shortest time possible.
Guxing still disguised himself very well. He dodged left and right under his fierce attack. There was almost no room for him to fight back, but in order to not arouse the suspicion of the crowd, He would occasionally take advantage of the time when Han Feng was gasping for breath to attack a few times. Although it did not have much effect. . . At the very least, he could deceive everyone. At the same time, his main goal was still to anger Han Feng. Only in this way could he finish the competition as soon as possible without leaving any traces behind.
However, what he did not know was that at this moment, on the high platform several tens of feet away, Chu Rouer was already sobbing silently. Her appearance could be faked and her appearance could also be disguised. However, how could the friendly temperament that was revealed from her every move and the casual action that she unintentionally made be able to hide from him, who was thinking of her day and night!
"Mr Yeh, you are looking down on Rouer too much. . . "
Chu Rouer said with a bitter smile and finally understood why he looked at her with such deep affection even though it was only the first time they met. It turned out that he was the Mr Yeh that she bitterly missed!
"Silly big brother! Didn't you promise to meet me two years later? Why did you take such a huge risk to come to First Edge General Assembly?"
Chu Rouer was both angry and hateful at this moment, but her reaction naturally could not escape Chu Feng's eyes. She slightly frowned and asked with a slightly dignified tone. "Rouer, what's wrong?"
"My child. . . It's nothing. It's just that. . . I miss my mother. "
Chu Rouer gently wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and forced a smile as she said.
"Little girl, you have only been separated from your mother for less than two hours and you are already not used to it. What will happen if I leave your mother in the future?"
Chu Feng said with a smile, but his eyes flashed with a trace of pain that no one knew about. He could feel that his daughter had changed completely after that incident. That stubborn and willful daughter of his would never come back. Now, he was exceptionally obedient and docile, but why was he not used to it? Every time it was late at night, he could not help but think of that unruly little princess of his. . .
"People only know how to cherish when they lose them. This is the same for emperors and commoners. "
With a light sigh, in the end, he couldn't say anything else. How could all of this not be his own sins? It was hateful to be born in the emperor's home!
