Chapter 146

Ten days later, in Pinghai City, it was noon.

With both feet on the street, Zhao Longyuan felt very comfortable.

After the Zhenhai beast incident was over, the three of them left quietly, changed their soldiers' attire, and moved freely in the city.

Zhao Longyuan also brought Xuanyuan Qing to a restaurant in the city, ordered a lot of local delicacies, and enjoyed them to his heart's content.

In the process, he also ordered a jug of sake, and ate while drinking.

Because of his deep inner strength, Zhao Longyuan would not get drunk at all.

But the taste of sake still gave him a hazy feeling, and he was full of love for the world in front of him.

At this moment, a group of swordsmen slowly walked in from outside.

Different from the bullies that Zhao Longyuan met in Luoxia City, this group of people were very respectful and kept a low profile.

They found a place to sit down, quietly, and asked for a lot of food.

The boss was also very polite to this group of people, without any neglect.

The leader of the swordsmen is a young man wearing a light blue kimono. He has long braids and his eyes are constantly scanning the surroundings, seemingly observing everyone present.

Soon, the young man's eyes shifted to Zhao Longyuan.

He also smiled and asked: "May I ask if you are a master in Zhongyuan?"

Zhao Longyuan said frankly: "I don't dare to be a master, but I did come here from Donghua Kingdom."

The young man waved his hand: "This is a Xinyin swordsman from Yagyu's faction. His name is Sora Yamamoto. I don't know your name?"

Hearing the words Liu Sheng's faction and Xinyin swordsman, Zhao Longyuan was startled at first, and then said: "I'm Zhao Longyuan, your Excellency is actually a swordsman from Liu Sheng's faction?"

Yamamoto Sora: "Exactly, Zhao Daxia, I seem to have heard your story. You are the deputy leader of the Central Plains Wulin, right?"

Zhao Longyuan nodded: "That's right, Yamamoto Swordsman, it's fate to see you here."

Sora Yamamoto asked suddenly: "Then can Hero Zhao fight me?"

Zhao Longyuan was stunned for a moment, then readily replied: "Of course."

Yamamoto Sora is the one among the young swordsmen of Yagyu's school who likes to learn from each other the most. He has a youthful and vigorous side, and he also likes to ask for advice with an open mind. Therefore, he often seeks out masters.

Now that he meets Zhao Longyuan, Sora Yamamoto will naturally not let go of this good opportunity: "Well, let's go outside and compete."

With that said, Yamamoto Sora jumped out and walked out.

Zhao Longyuan followed closely behind.

This time, he plans to show his skills in a foreign country, so that the masters of Nansheng Kingdom will admire Donghua Kingdom even more.

Seeing Sora Yamamoto jump vertically, he jumped onto the roof.

Zhao Longyuan followed and jumped over.

The two stood there facing each other, saluting each other.

[Yueyin knife technique! 】Sora Yamamoto pulled out the knife at an extremely fast speed, the light of the knife flickered, and struck Zhao Longyuan's throat from bottom to top.

【Shattering Shadow Knife Technique! 】Zhao Longyuan also pulled out the 【Jasper Knife】, and blocked the opponent's moves with a horizontal knife.

"Cang!" The two knives collided together, releasing strong force.

Sora Yamamoto continued to make moves, his body appeared and disappeared, and the Taidao kept retracting the scabbard, and then pulled it out, displaying unexpected moves.

Zhao Longyuan stood on the spot, keenly judged the timing and strength of the opponent's move, and swung his knife to block it.

For a while, the two sides came and went, making dozens of tricks.

Zhao Longyuan's saber technique was a late attack, but gained the upper hand.

Yamamoto Sora was never able to hit the target due to his lack of internal strength.

But he was not discouraged, with a satisfied smile on his face: "This is the real master. It is really a beautiful thing in life to meet Daxia Zhao."

Zhao Longyuan smiled: "Brother, I will be proud if you praise me like this."

Yamamoto Sora shook his head; "I'm not complimenting you, I'm speaking from my heart."

As he said that, he suddenly jumped up high, and slashed out with his backhand, the light of the sword flickered like moonlight.

This is the strength of [Yueyin Sword Technique], if it is an ordinary opponent, it has already been decapitated by this move.

But Zhao Longyuan was different after all. He raised his long knife high and slashed more than 30 times in a row.

Yamamoto Sora had no choice but to withdraw the knife and landed, giving up the attack.

But Zhao Longyuan stepped forward at this moment and swung his knife across the opponent's neck.

Yamamoto Sora swung the Taidao with his backhand to resist.

Zhao Longyuan took advantage of the situation and changed his moves, stabbing the opponent's heart with a long knife.

The green knife light flashed, and Sora Yamamoto had no chance to dodge and could only suffer death.

But the tip of the knife stopped three inches from his heart.

Zhao Longyuan also put his knife back into its sheath: "I offended you."

The crowd present erupted into enthusiastic cheers, shaking the heavens and the earth.

Zhao Longyuan smiled and was very relaxed.

Sora Yamamoto fell to his knees in admiration: "Hero, please accept my worship."

Zhao Longyuan hurriedly helped him up: "Sora Yamamoto, there's no need to do this, I'm just doing my best."

Yamamoto Sora: "I have always respected masters, and I love you even more when I see a guy like you. From now on, if you come to Nansheng Country, you can find me."

"If you need my help, just ask, even if you let me die, I will do it!"

As he spoke, he patted his chest hard to show his determination.

Zhao Longyuan was suddenly moved: "Okay, I promise you."

Xuanyuan Qing was stunned: "Is this the death of a scholar for his confidant?"

Cao Lingyu smiled brightly and said nothing.

After Sora Yamamoto finished speaking, he turned around and left here with the Yagyu swordsmen.

Looking at the figure of the other party, Zhao Longyuan was also thinking about what he should do next.

After thinking about it, he decided to return to Donghua Kingdom.

Zhao Longyuan said immediately: "We should go back."

Xuanyuan Qing: "That's fine, anyway, I have enjoyed a lot of food from Nansheng Kingdom."

Cao Lingyu: "It is indeed time to go back, after all, the Central Plains Wulin still needs us."

After finishing speaking, the three of them jumped back to the Nansheng Kingdom merchant's ship, sailed with the merchant ship, and embarked on the way back.

Looking at the calm sea, Zhao Longyuan also began to think about what will happen to Donghua Kingdom recently.

Before he knew it, he had left Donghua Kingdom for more than two months.

These times are not long, but in fact they are not short.

Especially when the empress dowager and the emperor are fighting for power.

More than ten days later, in Donghua Kingdom, in the early morning, inside the city of Fuzhou.

Stepping onto the dock land, Zhao Longyuan had a lot of thoughts.

However, he didn't have much time to think. Instead, he mounted a fast horse and headed to the capital with the other two.

After starry nights, Zhao Longyuan returned to the capital soon.

That night, he let Xuanyuan Qing rest well, and he and Cao Lingyu took advantage of the night to enter the palace.

After a while, in the palace, in the upper study.

Cao Shaotian was sitting there dozing off, looking very tired.

He still has a woman's fragrance on his body, obviously he has just experienced the warm and fragrant nephrite.

Zhao Longyuan has a keen sense of smell, so he can smell it naturally.

But he didn't say it directly, he just lowered his head and told the whole story of what happened recently.
