Chapter 886: Life and Death Tournament
Gu Fei smiled softly, "We are all in the world, there is no need to mention these things."
Fang Lei was about to say something else, when someone suddenly said: "I've heard long ago that the Crown Princess of Qi is the most beautiful woman in the world. When I see her today, she is indeed worthy of her reputation."
When Fang Lei heard this, she wondered if she was really the Crown Princess?
She couldn't afford to offend the crown prince's concubine, no, she couldn't offend even the crown prince's concubine. She was still the wife of the leader, so she couldn't offend her even more.
Is she out of her mind? How dare she provoke the leader’s wife? She laughed dryly and returned to her seat.
The dishes are served and the meal begins.
Someone at the table suddenly said: "That Japanese master was from the Qingcheng sect in the past? Why have I never heard of it?"
Everyone shook their heads.
He Yingjie said: "Senior Fang Shan just said that he will have a life-and-death challenge with Master Baili tomorrow. I haven't seen Master Baili take action for a long time. Tomorrow's life-and-death challenge will definitely be extremely exciting."
Gu Fei knew nothing about the life-and-death contest and asked He Yingjie next to him in a low voice, "What is the life-and-death contest?"
He Yingjie also whispered: "This is the tradition of martial arts conferences."
"For the sake of peace in the martial arts world and to avoid private revenge, a life-and-death contest will be set up at the conference. If there is any grudge, it can be resolved in the ring as long as both parties agree. As the name suggests, the life-and-death contest will not end regardless of life or death."
Gu Fei nodded, "What if one party wants to beat the other party if they don't agree?"
He Yingjie smiled and said, "If you don't agree, you will have to ask the alliance leader to come forward. If the alliance leader asks for the reason clearly and feels that it is necessary to participate in the life-and-death contest, then he must participate."
Gu Fei finally understood why the master was unwilling to be the leader of the alliance. How could the master be patient enough to take care of such trivial matters. It's not as interesting as doing two questions.
After the banquet, Qin'er did not serve Gu Fei in the same formal and cumbersome manner as yesterday. Of course she did it on purpose yesterday.
Yang Yingying humiliated her master, and there were several people at the table who seemed to be disapproving of her master. She had to let these people know that her master's status was so noble that they were not comparable to her.
Towards evening, Xiao Yu found Gu Fei. The two went down the mountain to find a deserted place, and Gu Fei sent Xiao Yu back.
The camp was still the same as before. Xiao Yu called Shitou. Shitou agreed from outside, then came in and said, "Don't worry, sir. I've always been guarding the door. If anyone comes, I'll send them away."
After Shitou finished speaking, he saw Gu Fei was there and stepped out knowingly.
Xiao Yu held Gu Fei in his arms for a while before letting her go.
Early the next morning, Palace Master Yan was more interested than Gu Fei, "Let's go and watch the old man Baili fight."
Gu Fei asked curiously: "Will Master Baili fight with that Wanshan? Why did that Wanshan accept a Japanese as his apprentice?"
Palace Master Yan said as he walked: "There will definitely be a fight between them."
"Wan Shan was expelled from the Qingcheng faction and had a lot to do with Baili Gui. Since then, Wan Shan has never appeared in the Central Plains again. He must have gone to Japan."
"It's not surprising to accept a Japanese as his apprentice."
Gu Fei nodded, "Which one of them does master think is more powerful?"
Palace Master Yan smiled and said, "I don't even know about this master. After all, I haven't seen Wanshan for many years. Let's just watch."
Gu Fei still remembered what the old man Fang Shan said when he left. She just hoped that the head of Baili would kill Fang Shan, otherwise Xiao Yu might be in danger.
When a few people arrived at the foot of the mountain, they saw that three arenas had been set up.
There was a crowd all around the ring.
Seeing Palace Master Yan and Gu Fei approaching, these people all made way for them.
Fang Shan was already sitting on the ring with his eyes closed to relax.
