Mortal Bones

Chapter 164: The First Sword, Trust the Choice of the Sword Champion

With Gao Nu's roar, the noisy stands and the angry shouts in the spirit mirror suddenly stopped.

Be it understanding.

Be it sympathy.

In short, no one can deprive an old father of the right to avenge his daughter.

In terms of the reason for the sword-asking, no one is more qualified than Gao Nu to participate in this sword-asking.

This is why everyone fell into silence.

"The girl injured by Madam Mie, couldn't be saved?"

In the silence of the whole place, the owner of the house Liu Chuxuan suddenly sent a message to a walker from the Nine Houses outside the venue.

Soon, the voice of the person walking came from the jade slip——

"Reporting to the Palace Master, the little girl died immediately after being severely injured by the lady of the snake due to her weak bones."

"The elixirs we can use cannot save the dying person."

After confirming that Gao Nu's daughter was dead, Liu Chuxuan could only shake his head helplessly and said to Mu Zhixing with a wry smile:

"The order of the Sword Champion List has been issued. Unless the Nine Palaces forcibly take it away, there is no possibility of changing it."

Hearing this, Mu Zhixing's face also sank, and his eyes showed worry.

If the Sword Champion List is taken away at this time, the Demon Mother's decree will lose its obstruction and will "drive straight in".

At that time, Zhenwu will inevitably become a battlefield for the demons.

Xuanpin Zhenjun on the side disagreed:

"Knowing that it is a losing game, you still let Amon, Yunye, Ye Qingnu and other pillars of the cultivation world die in vain. As the Lord of the Nine Prefectures, can you bear this infamy?"

Liu Chuxuan was speechless by Xuanpin Zhenjun's words.

In fact, it is indeed as Xuanpin Zhenjun said. If the Sword Champion is not stopped from continuing to ask the Demon Mother Yuzhi for swords, it is very likely that not only will the battle between the Heavenly Demons not be stopped, but Shangqing will also lose seven pillars.

At this time, the elder Fu Yuan beside him finally spoke after a long silence:

"Master, you can indeed consider putting away the Sword Champion List directly."

Fu Yuan continued:

"Whether it is Amon, Dugu Qingxiao, or Chen Hao, with their talents, their future achievements are not comparable to those of us old guys who are about to enter the earth."

"We can't let them lose their lives here in vain."

After a slight hesitation, Liu Chuxuan suddenly looked at Zhao Qian and said:

"Brother Zhao, what do you think?"

In fact, he has already thought about putting away the Sword Champion List, but if he really wants to make a decision, he needs to let the heads of the major sects of the Nine Prefectures stand behind him.

After all, once the Sword Champion List is put away, the casualties of the major sects are secondary.

The most direct casualties are still the casual cultivators of Zhenwutian and ordinary mortals.

Zhao Qian did not answer, but looked at Xu Taiping and Dugu Qingxiao on the side, and said expressionlessly:

"Qingxiao, Taiping, if you two don't want to, we can go back to Qingxuan now."

The gate of Qingxuan Sect is sealed, even if Zhenwu becomes a battlefield of demons, they have enough time to prepare.

Xu Taiping and Dugu Qingxiao, just a glance, each other's heart is clear.

However, just when Xu Taiping was about to speak, Gao Nu's voice suddenly interrupted his words-

"Master Liu, the sword champion list cannot be collected, this sword question cannot be stopped!"

Then, Gao Nu, Qi Po and Liu Gu appeared in front of Master Liu.

Master Liu looked helpless, glanced at Gao Nu, and then shook his head and said:

"This sword question will definitely lose, and if we continue to fight, it will only make you die in vain."

Qi Po and Liu Gu, the two young men, wanted to step forward to argue, but were stopped by Xu Taiping.

Afterwards, Xu Taiping suggested to the mansion master Liu Chuxuan:

"Master, let's let the ten of us decide on this sword-asking contest."

After that, Xu Taiping walked straight to the position of Amon and others.

Seeing Xu Taiping coming, Amon immediately greeted him with a smile:

"Taiping!"

Xu Taiping immediately bowed and saluted:

"Taiping, meet Senior Amon."

Dugu Qingxiao, Gao Nu, Qi Po and Liu Gu also understood Xu Taiping's intention and stepped forward.

Shaoqing, the ten people gathered and stood side by side on the sword platform.

Seeing this, the mansion master Liu Chuxuan frowned slightly.

Xuanpin Zhenjun was slightly dissatisfied and whispered:

"It has come to this, what is there to hesitate about?"

Mu Zhixing on the side nodded in agreement:

"This is good, give them the right to decide life and death, so as not to mess up their state of mind."

Only cultivators who have reached his level understand that the more important the decision, the more profound the impact on the cultivator's future state of mind and even the heart of Tao.

After Mu Zhixing said this, Liu Chuxuan finally made up his mind.

He looked up at the ten people standing side by side in front of him, with a serious expression:

"Everyone, those who are willing to fight the ten demons, please step out."

As soon as the voice fell, Gao Nu, Liu Gu, and Qi Po, three young men, stepped out without hesitation.

Qi Po even crossed his arms and said with great pride:

"In this sword duel, I, Qi Po, swear to chop off the head of a demon cultivator!"

Seeing this, Liu Gu clapped his hands and praised:

"Brother, you are so courageous!"

For these two people, even the group of monks who cursed the most had to admit that they were crazy, but they were also really brave.

And Gao Nu, from beginning to end, had a resolute look of fearlessness of life and death.

At this time, Qi Po saw that the remaining few people had not made any move, and immediately said anxiously:

"Senior Taiping, Senior Qingxiao, and Senior Amon, come over quickly! Come over, there are six of us on our side, six against four, so we will naturally win!"

But before Xu Taiping could speak, Palace Master Liu Chuxuan's next words directly poured a plate of cold water on Qi Po's head -

"Today's sword questioning requires ten people to go out together."

Under the surprised looks of Qi Po and the other three, Liu Chuxuan continued with a decisive look:

"But if one person is unwilling to stand out, the Jiufu will forcibly put away the sword leader list and directly start a war with Jiuyuan."

After much hesitation, Liu Chuxuan finally made a decision.

Hearing this, Gao Nu looked shocked at first, and then said angrily:

"Palace Master Liu, haven't you made it clear that you don't want to fight those ten demons?"

In his opinion, it was impossible for Tokazu, who was randomly selected by the Sword Chief Ranking, to be so united and go out together.

Xu Taiping's thoughts were similar to Gao Nu's, but he did not argue with Liu Chuxuan. Instead, he silently took a step forward and stood side by side with the Qi Po trio.

The reason why he stood up without saying anything was because he wanted to confirm a suspicion in his mind.

Seeing Xu Taiping standing up, the young man Qi Po said with great appreciation:

"I knew that even if none of them were willing to come forward, you, Senior Taiping, would definitely come forward. I, Qi Po, really saw the right person!"

Xu Taiping reached out and patted Qi Po on the shoulder, smiled lightly and said without looking back:

"You have to believe in Jian Kuibang's choice."
