Two people who are truly destined to be together will have feelings that come naturally and naturally. In the past few days, Song Yuhua and Hua Manlou have developed a secret love for each other. The man likes the woman's gentleness and kindness, and the woman likes the man's gentle and elegant demeanor.

After learning that Ximen Chuxue was in seclusion here, Song Yuhua and others were very surprised, and Song Yuzhi immediately understood why A Fei was so excited that day.

On February 15th, everyone was waiting, waiting for Su Yu and Ximen Chuxue to come out of seclusion.

"A Fei, is that Emperor really that powerful?" Song Yuzhi asked curiously.

"Of course, the Emperor is like an immortal, you will know when you see him." A Fei said proudly.

"Is Ximen Chuxue's hair white? I heard that his white hair is like snow, so he is called Ximen Chuxue." Song Shidao asked excitedly.

A Fei looked at the funny guy in front of him helplessly, as if he didn't want to talk to him.

At this time, Lu Xiaofeng led a person in. It was Sun Xiuqing who came from Emei in a dusty state. Speaking of which, she had just returned to Emei a few days ago when she heard about the Ximen martial arts competition. Now she hurried here again.

"Brother Qiao, Brother Hua, Yuyan, Ah Qing." Sun Xiuqing hurriedly greeted several people.

Lu Xiaofeng introduced Song Yuhua and others to Sun Xiuqing, and then several people waited for the two to come out of retreat.

"Hu..." Su Yu woke up from meditation and felt that the soul in her body had a trace of breath. This Taichu Jue was indeed extraordinary. It seemed that she needed to practice for some more time before the soul could be condensed.

Su Yu stood up and pushed open the door.

"Greetings to the Emperor." The voices of Qiao Feng and others came.

"Sorry to keep you waiting." Su Yu raised her hand and helped everyone up.

"Oh." Song Yuzhi suddenly felt that her body was lifted up by a gentle force, and she cried out in surprise.

"Little sister." Song Yuhua said angrily.

Song Yuzhi also realized that he was being rude and stuck out his tongue.

"Emperor, these people are..." Hua Manlou stepped forward and was about to introduce them, but Su Yu raised his hand to stop him.

"The Great Sui Dynasty, the Lingnan Song Clan, the children of Tiandao Song Que, Song Yuhua, Song Shidao, and you, Song Yuzhi, right?" Su Yu looked at them one by one and said.

"Emperor, how did you know?" Song Yuhua was surprised. She didn't even tell Hua Manlou and the others her father's name.

Su Yu smiled. Although he was in seclusion, how could he hide what was happening outside from his full-level observation Haki.

"What's so strange about this? Brother Emperor knows everything." Ah Qing said.

"Are you used to living here?" Su Yu asked.

"Thank you, Emperor. It's great here. Everyone is very nice." Song Yuhua said.

"The roasted lamb leg made by Ah Qing is delicious." Song Yuzhi said hurriedly.

"Hahaha, as long as you like it." Su Yu smiled.

At this time, Ximen Chuxue also came out of retreat not far away. Although his cultivation had not improved, he was calmer and more confident.

"Emperor." Ximen Chuxue came to Su Yu.

"Well, very good, remember what I said, it's just a competition, winning or losing is not important, the important thing is to know your shortcomings in the process and make corrections, this is the most important thing." Su Yu said.

"It's black hair." Song Shidao whispered with some disappointment. In return, Ah Fei rolled his eyes.

The two of them had been in retreat for many days. Jiang Yuyan and others had already boiled hot water and made delicious food. They only needed to take a bath and eat something before going to the Forbidden City. The carriage arranged by the royal family had been waiting at the gate of the manor.

The Forbidden City, the central place of the Ming Dynasty, was usually not accessible to ordinary people except for the princes and nobles, let alone entering. But today was different, because of the arrival of a competition, the Forbidden City was open today. Of course, only the huge square in the Forbidden City was open, but for ordinary people, it was something to brag about for a long time.

Zhu Houzhao stood on the upper floor, looking at the dense crowd below. From time to time, there were people shouting "Long live the emperor", which made him very happy. On his left and right were the masters of the East and West Factories, and of course there were hidden masters of the Imperial Palace who had not shown up.

"Your Majesty, the emperor and his men have arrived." Yu Huatian said to Zhu Houzhao.

Zhu Houzhao turned around and went downstairs.

"Wow, this is the imperial palace." Ah Qing said excitedly.

Su Yu and his men came in from another door of the Forbidden City, avoiding the sea of ​​people in front.

Su Yu and his men followed the eunuch who saved his life to the moving building where the emperor was.

"Haha, Your Majesty, you are here." Zhu Houzhao greeted them with a big laugh.

"Your Majesty." Su Yu said with a smile.

"Your Majesty." Qiao Feng and his men saluted the emperor in a proper manner.

"No need to salute, no need to salute, come on, let's go up, I have already prepared fruits and snacks." Zhu Houzhao said enthusiastically.

Su Yu nodded and followed him up. When he passed by an old eunuch with a gloomy face, he vaguely sensed a hint of murderous intent.

"Cao Zhengchun?" Su Yu immediately knew the other party's identity.

Su Yu sat down side by side with the emperor, while the others stood.

In the middle of the square below, there was a pre-built arena. The heroes and the people had already surrounded it.

In fact, many people from the government offices were placed in the crowd so that they could take action immediately in case of an emergency.

Su Yu was also looking at the crowd below and the surroundings at this time. Suddenly, his eyes narrowed and his gaze fell on a house in the Forbidden City.

"What a strong murderous aura." Su Yu said secretly.

"Qiao Feng, pay attention to your surroundings. Protect the emperor later. Something might happen." Su Yu sent a voice message to Qiao Feng.

Qiao Feng's body was shocked. Although he was a little curious about how Su Yu's voice reached him, he still pretended to be normal and just nodded his head imperceptibly.

The emperor was obviously in a good mood and talked to everyone from time to time. Gradually, the sky darkened and a full moon rose.

"Dang..." A gong sounded.

Su Yu nodded to Ximen Chuxue.

Ximen recalled and jumped down from the building.

He was seen wearing fluttering white clothes, holding a sword in his left hand, and flying down from the sky, like a celestial being.

"Wow..."

"It's Ximen Chuxue."

"It's really him, he appeared."

Everyone present exclaimed.

Ximen quickly landed on the platform, stood still, placed his hands on his chest, held the sword, closed his eyes and waited.

Just when everyone was wondering why Ye Gucheng hadn't appeared yet.

Petals suddenly fell from the sky.

Then a sweet and refreshing flower fragrance came.

"Clang..."

A sword sound came.

Then a white figure, accompanied by petals in the air, descended from the sky, with an elegant and graceful appearance, like an immortal.

This person was also dressed in white and had a handsome face. Compared with the cold Ximen Chuxue, this person had a gentle smile on his face, which made people feel very comfortable at first sight.

"What a dustless and innocent person." Su Yu praised Ye Gucheng with bright eyes when she saw him.

"Emperor, what does this mean?" Lu Xiaofeng asked curiously.

"Amazing, Ye Gucheng's talent in swordsmanship is unparalleled, and he actually walked out of the path of dustless and innocent. It's really amazing. Dustless and innocent is absolutely confident in his swordsmanship, and must be truly invincible at the same level." Su Yu explained.

"Sometimes I really envy you. I don't have the qualifications to practice martial arts." Zhu Houzhao said.

"Your Majesty, God has given you royal power and wealth, so it is fair to deprive you of the qualifications for cultivation. Since ancient times, emperors have been like this. Even if you practice martial arts, you cannot reach the peak." Su Yu said.

"Oh, is there really no way? I know that the higher the cultivation level of martial artists, the longer their life span. I am not greedy for royal power, but it is good to live a few more years. Hahaha." Zhu Houzhao laughed.

"Maybe." Su Yu replied ambiguously.

Zhu Houzhao's eyes lit up immediately, but he still held back and did not continue to ask.

On the high platform.

"Three years have passed since we parted that day. You wanted to challenge me to a sword fight at that time, but I refused. First, your cultivation level was lower than mine, and second, your swordsmanship was still immature and you had not found your own way." Ye Gucheng said.

Ximen Chuxue remained silent.

"This time, I know that you have not only improved your cultivation level, but also found your own swordsmanship. Can you tell me what your swordsmanship is?" Ye Gucheng asked.

"Love!" Ximen Chuxue only said one word.

"Love? What does it mean?" Ye Gucheng asked.

"Only when you are at your best in love can you be at your best in swordsmanship." Ximen Chuxue said.

Ye Gucheng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and then he laughed.

"Hahaha, good, you are very good, you have grown more than I thought."

"Clang..." Ye Gucheng suddenly drew out his sword.

"This sword is an elite cold sword from overseas, it can cut hair with a blow, the blade is three feet and three inches long, and the net weight is six pounds and four ounces." Ye Gucheng said while holding the sword.

"Clang..." Ximen Chuxue also drew out his sword.

"This sword is a sharp weapon in the world, the blade is three feet and seven inches long, and the net weight is seven pounds and thirteen ounces."

"Good sword." The two said in unison.

"Famous scene." Su Yu smiled slightly.

Everyone held their breath immediately, and everyone knew that the duel was about to begin.

However, it was different from what everyone imagined. The two did not make any extra movements after drawing their swords, but looked at each other with their swords.

After an unknown period of time, a breeze blew, lifting the hair of the two, and suddenly, the two raised their swords and rushed towards each other at the same time.

"Ding Ding Dang Dang."

Instantly, the two exchanged more than ten moves, and the figures on the high platform flickered, accompanied by the sparks caused by the collision of the two swords, which was very beautiful.

"Swoosh... swoosh..."

Sword Qi rushed to the surroundings.

The people around retreated to avoid it.

"So powerful." Upstairs, Song Yuzhi and A Fei were surprised at the same time.

"Clang..." Suddenly, Ximen was repelled by a sword and slid back a few steps.

Ye Gucheng took advantage of the victory and rushed towards Ximen Chuxue like a white silk.

Ximen was not panicked. He changed the sword from his right hand to his left hand, fell backwards, and the tip of the sword was facing down. He immediately rolled in the air with the help of the force and avoided Ye Gucheng's attack in an instant.

"Good." Ye Gucheng saw that Ximen Chuxue could still be so calm at this time, and he immediately cheered.

Ximen Chuxue stood still again, and then the straight sword in his hand drew a few sword flowers in the direction of Ye Gucheng. Suddenly, the sword Qi formed a plum blossom shape, accompanied by the shaking cold air, and rushed towards Ye Gucheng.
