Chapter 225 Sword Master Conference

Yanchi Island, the forbidden area of ​​the Yan family in the north.

"The old man is crazy!"

Yan Yun's son, Yan Xiao, stood in front of the stone gate of the forbidden area and spoke loudly.

After a while, a clear voice sounded, echoing in the valley, with a different kind of ethereal sound.

"What's wrong?"

"The old man gave the clan's treasure, the Red Flame Sword, to an outsider!" Yan Xiao replied eagerly.

"What!" The originally calm voice showed some emotional fluctuations.

"Registration for the Sword Master Conference ended at noon today, but in the afternoon, an outsider came and said he wanted to sign up for the competition."

"Because the time had passed, I rejected his request. As a result, the man made a big fuss at the registration venue. I went to stop him. As soon as I tied with him, the old man came out, called the man aside, and talked for a long time, not only I agreed to let him participate in the competition, and even brought him to our Yan family for warm hospitality. In the end... I actually gave him the Red Flame Sword!"

"Although dad is old, he will never do anything stupid. He must have his own arrangements!"

"What arrangement? You were clearly deceived by that person. The old man was indeed all-powerful back then, but the more he is like this, the easier it is to be deceived! I can't persuade you at all. Sister, you'd better get out of seclusion as soon as possible!"

"You said that person has already signed up for the Sword Master Conference?"

"Well, the old man said it himself and agreed to it out of the blue!"

"Can he be even with you?"

"Yes, but that was my carelessness!" Yan Xiao quickly added.

"If this is the case, and with the power of the Red Flame Sword, he will definitely be able to enter the finals of the Sword Master Conference. I have already understood the last level of the Yanchi Nine Swords. It will not be too late to deal with him in the finals!"

"By the way, send your men to keep an eye on him and don't let him escape!"

"I know, I've already asked the Eight Great Swordsmen to keep an eye on me!" Yan Xiao nodded.

…

After Chen Ping left the Yan family, he took the lead in returning to Zuixiaju.

There is never a shortage of information in a place like a tavern.

Chen Ping found the tavern proprietress Xia Hongyun.

"That ominous aura? The first person to discover it was the head of the Yan family. As far as I know, he sent many family members to pursue it all the way to the Valley of the Clouds, where they completely lost track of it!"

"The head of the Yan family guesses that the person with the ominous aura has signed up for the Sword Master Conference!"

"The purpose of the Sword Master Conference is to select a true Sword Master to protect the peace of Yanchi Island!"

"Every five years, a strong person is selected each time. Now it has been held for nine times, and nine strong sword masters have been selected!"

"This year is the last one. The selected strong ones will have a final competition with the other nine strong ones. If they defeat all the strong ones, they can become the Sword Master. At that time, they will be able to obtain the Yan family's Red Flame Sword. And the Chi family’s red fire sword!”

"The two divine swords, combined into one, are the weapons of Yan Chi, the man chosen by God back then. They have the ability to easily kill demons!"

"That ominous aura comes from the devil. Therefore, the devil may have been among the contestants, but he just used some method to temporarily hide the aura on his body!"

The ominous aura and demons mentioned by Xia Hongyun all refer to the demon clan. Through her introduction, Chen Ping also knew the purpose of the demon clan.

In addition to rescuing the Demon God, he also wanted to obtain the Red Flame Sword in his hand.

On the way here, Chen Ping had clearly felt the power of the stars contained in the Red Flame Sword, but with his ability, he was still unable to control the majestic power of the stars, so he could only use it as an ordinary weapon for the time being.

What puzzled Chen Ping was why Yan Yun, the head of the Yan family, would give him such an important Red Flame Sword, what if he was sent by the demon clan?

Chen Ping didn't think about any answers. The most important thing now was to find the demons hidden in the competition.

He also asked for some information about the participants, but also found no problems.

"It seems that this mission is not easy!"

The night is getting darker, and the sky is filled with stars, which are gorgeous and dazzling.

After a night's rest, Chen Ping told Aaliya and others all the contents of the mission and the information obtained early the next morning.

"The aura of the demon clan?" Xiaobai frowned slightly.

"Yes, that person should have been hiding nearby. As for the location where the aura was found, it can be traced back to the Valley of the Clouds!"

As Chen Ping spoke, he took out some items, with some demonic aura still remaining on them.

"It is indeed from the demon clan!" Xiaobai could clearly feel the remaining aura on it.

"I plan to divide the troops into two groups. You will go to the Valley of the Clouds and continue the investigation. With Xiaobai here, you may find more information. I will be here, preparing to participate in the competition. Maybe I can find some clues during the competition! "

"Demon... wouldn't it be too dangerous for you to stay here alone?" Aaliya's face was full of worry.

"The Yan family is in charge here, and Yan Yun is very powerful. Even if the demons do come, they will still be there to stand in front of them!" Chen Ping just comforted Aaliya.

"On your side, this journey must be extremely dangerous. No matter what, safety comes first. Protect yourselves first!"

"Brother Dong, don't worry, I will protect everyone!" Su Xixi said, patting her chest.

Chen Pingyuan originally wanted them to bring Xiao Hei with them. With Xiao Hei around, safety would be greatly improved.

But Chen Ping was left alone, and they were even more worried. With Xiao Hei as a helper, they would save a lot of trouble.

Finally, Xiao Hei stayed with Chen Ping, and the other four rushed to Cloud Valley after breakfast.

The Sword Master Conference officially began at noon on this day.

The number of contestants was far more than Chen Ping expected. In addition to Yan Chi Island, there were countless swordsmen from other places.

A rough calculation showed that there were basically 10,000 people participating.

Fortunately, the competition was very fast, and most of the competitions were decided in one round. The Yan Family and the Chi Family had 30 competition platforms respectively, and half of the contestants were eliminated in most of the afternoon.

Until the evening, there were only more than 2,000 people left.

Chen Ping only participated in two competitions, both of which were won with one sword.

In a blink of an eye, two days passed, and Xue Na sent back news that a large amount of demon aura was found in the depths of Cloud Valley, and Chen Ping also entered the top 16 of the 10th Sword Master Conference.

"Xinghan Empire, Royal Guards, Fu Guang!"

The man standing opposite Chen Ping on the arena was tall and straight, like a towering tower, exuding a majestic aura.

The white Royal Guards uniform on his body was spotless, and the golden edging shone with a holy and noble light in the sun.

"Fu Guang! It's actually Captain Fu Guang. He has come to participate in the Sword Master Conference?"

"It is said that this is the last Sword Master Conference. The winner will compete with the previous strong men for the title of Sword Master. Almost all the sword practitioners on the continent have come!"

"But Fu Guang is the captain of the Imperial Guards! I didn't expect that he would come. Could it be that the Empire also..."

"Fu Guang is so handsome, I want to marry him!"

Fu Guang is indeed handsome enough, and there are a large number of crazy fans in the Empire who are fascinated by him.

"Your waist is thicker than a water tank, and your facial features are arranged in a chaotic manner, with no order at all. Even Goudan next door doesn't like you, and you want to marry Captain Fu Guang!"

"..."

In these battles, Chen Ping did not take out the Red Flame Sword, mainly because he was too ostentatious, but when he saw Fu Guang, he hesitated.

According to the introduction of the old lady in Zuixiaju, after the end of the Life Hammer War, the West Asia Empire fell apart. Later, in Fengyi, there was a man who used to be the Knights Templar, who led a group of people to conquer the east and west, established the Xinghan Empire, and appointed a man named Xingliu as the new high priest.

Soon after the new high priest took office, he reorganized the Knights Templar, but the Knights Templar was renamed the Guards, and Fu Guang overwhelmed a group of strong men and became the leader of the Guards.

According to the data displayed on the scarlet bracelet, Fu Guang's strength is far higher than Chen Ping. Even if the blood awakening is activated, he may not be Fu Guang's opponent.

Unless Chen Ping uses the Red Flame Sword, after these two days, although Chen Ping still cannot control the power of the stars, he can guide it out a little. With this almost external ability, he may be able to suppress Fu Guang.

"Lion Heart City, Chen Jingnan!"

Chen Ping changed his name again, adding a Chen character before Jingnan's name.

"Lion Heart City? That is the holy land of holy healers, how could there be a swordsman?"

As the head of the Royal Guards, Fu Guang has far more experience than ordinary people and knows something about Lion Heart City.

"My ancestors were from the West Asian continent, and they were stranded in Lion Heart City due to war!"

"So that's it! Then please show your sword!" Fu Guang nodded.

Chen Ping waved his hand, and the Red Flame Sword appeared in the air.

Suddenly, there was an exclamation from the audience.

"The Yan family's Red Flame Sword! How could it be in this person's hands!"

"Who... who is he? The Red Flame Sword is the Yan family's treasure, and it is a sword that only the Sword Master is worthy of. How could it be in his hands now?"

"Could it be a fake?"

"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I once saw the Yan family's patriarch use this sword. This aura is definitely not something that an ordinary sword can have!"

"Dare to steal the Yan family's treasure, and take it out openly, you are really tired of living!"

"You are really stupid. Since he dared to take it out openly, it must have been given by the Yan family's patriarch!"

"Ah? This... what's going on?"

"Is this kid the illegitimate son of the Yan family master?"

"That's a possibility!"

"That's useless. Captain Fu Guang is the number one swordsman in the Xinghan Empire. Even the Yan family master can only fight him to a draw. Even if this kid has the Red Flame Sword, he can never be Captain Fu Guang's opponent!"

"That's right. Even if he uses the Red Flame Sword, it is impossible for him to exert the true power of the Red Flame Sword. Captain Fu Guang will win!"

"Captain Fu Guang, you will win!"

The fight between the two on the stage has not started yet, and the shouts from the audience have already been deafening.

"How did this Red Flame Sword end up in your hands!"

Fu Guang's face was filled with doubts.
