C237 (1/2)

Ling Yuan's heart was moved. He did not think that his Worryfree Hall would be chosen as a candidate, as he was completely unprepared for it.

Gong Yue looked at the two people who each had their own thoughts, and chuckled: ”I wonder if this Ling Yuan Guardian of Worryfree Hall can represent the Worryfree Hall Master himself? Or do you want to represent yourself in the competition? ”

Ling Yue's heart began to churn. Ever since he heard Chu Yunge's words from the Murong Dynasty, he had a bad feeling about it. Relying on his own martial arts and power, he could definitely rebel out of the Worryfree Hall and start anew. There was no longer any need to bow down and worship. And now, he had a chance to become the Alliance Head.

After pondering for a moment, Ling Yuan stood up and replied in a low voice: ”This humble one can represent Worryfree Hall Master and participate in the selection.”

”Alright, then we'll stop here for today. The competition will begin tomorrow at the Martial Exhibition Hall!” Seeing that he was about to put down the heavy burden on his shoulders, even Gong Yue felt much more relaxed when he spoke.

After everyone left their seats, Chu Yunge walked straight to Feng Yi's side, pointed at his nose and asked: ”You slut Feng, are you really willing to watch this old lady make a fool of himself? Are you that confident that I can fight the Ling Yuan alone? ”

Feng Yi smiled apologetically, ”My wife, you misunderstood your husband. Think about it, how did Ling Yuan lose to you in Murong Dynasty? I left because I wanted to make it easier for you! ”

”Tch!” It was luck, alright? Who knows what kind of tricks the Palace Mistress will pull? ” Listening to Feng Yi's explanation, Chu Yunge became much less angry, but she still spoke unhappily.

”Don't worry, Ling Yuan won't win, I definitely won't let him be the Alliance Master.” Feng Yi's eyes flashed.

In the evening, when Feng Yi and Feng Yi was enjoying the cool night by the lake, they discovered Ling Yuan.

”Hey, isn't this our partner? Why did you come here alone? ” Chu Yunge asked with ill intentions.

Ling Yuan asked with an ugly expression: ”Just what did you give Hei Yan today? He's been farting, and he's been talking nonstop. There's no way we can stay in the room any longer! ”

Chu Yunge thought of the purple colored ”sugar beans” he gave Hei Yan.

”Err — that has nothing to do with me. It's definitely because your Worryfree Hall doesn't have a good diet. He came here to see big fish and big meat and ate a lot of bad food.” Chu Yunge vaguely found an excuse.

Ling Yuan let out a heavy snort. He naturally would not believe this crappy excuse, but at this moment, it was not good for him to tear off his face.

”Right now, we're still working together, right?”

”So what?” Ling Yuan looked at Chu Yunge's wicked smile and became cautious.

”That's much easier. Now that there are only the two of us left as candidates, as long as you give up tomorrow and quit, let me be the Martial Union Lord. If I get the map, wouldn't it be easy for us to split it equally?”

”Why would I believe that you would split the treasure with me if you had the map?”

”Because you won't be able to find it even if you get it. Right now, I only lack this piece, so you are lacking a lot. I am obviously taking care of you, okay?” Think about it. If you have this treasure, you will have the strength to contend against Worryfree Hall. Then, you can start anew and dominate a region! ” Chu Yunge said patiently.

Ling Yuan thought about it. If Chu Yunge went back on his word, he had no other choice, she didn't have any resources at her disposal to fight against her. Furthermore, her own forces were all under the control of the Worryfree Hall and she had a huge grudge with Chu Yunge.

”No, I must participate in this competition. This is the capital for me to cooperate with you. Therefore, I will not withdraw!” After Ling Yuan finished, he turned around and left.

”Tch!” ”You won't be able to beat me even if you don't quit!” Chu Yunge said as she rolled her eyes and looked at Ling Yuan's back.

After Ling Yuan left, he did not return to his own residence, but instead went to Gong Yue's residence, which was in the courtyard. Because he remembered what Chu Yunge said to him near the lake yesterday.

He knew that Chu Yunge definitely had other intentions, but right now was a good opportunity. Therefore, he decided to give it a try.

Two guards stood at the entrance of the courtyard that Gong Yue resided in. Seeing that someone had arrived, they raised their arms and stopped the Ling Yuan.

”I have to trouble the two of you to inform them that Ling Yuan of Worryfree Hall requests to see Asgard Mistress.”

”Wait here, I'll go report.”

The guard said and turned around to report.

Not long after, the guard returned, ”The Mayor wants you to go in.”

The Ling Yuan said he had to work hard as he walked into the courtyard.

There was a pavilion in the courtyard, and Gong Yue stood in the pavilion as he smiled and nodded to the Ling Yuan, ”I wonder what the Ling Yuan's Reverend wishes to say?”

”I don't dare to say that. I just want to chat with the mayor.”

”Oh?” Gong Yue slightly raised his brows. He knew that Ling Yuan was definitely not here to gossip, and couldn't help but ask: ”What kind of gossip is it?”

”City Lord, have you heard of Nangong Xueyan?” After Ling Yuan finished speaking, he stared intently at Gong Yue, as though he did not want to miss any of the changes in Gong Yue's expression.

Gong Yue's face changed, ”I have heard of the famous Asura Dual Blades fifteen years ago. Furthermore, he has some connections with me. I just wonder what sort of gossip you have to do with her? ”

”In that case, City Lord, do you know that Nangong Xueyan has also come to your residence?”

Gong Yue's face changed greatly, and asked with a trembling voice: ”She came? How could I not know? ”

”I think the mayor has been careless due to too many things happening in the past few days.”
