The sound of the pipa in the hall was melodious and graceful, and golden shawls fluttered between the dancers' slender wrists. The bells on their toes rang crisply and pleasantly, just like fairies dancing.

The uniform dance moves dispersed after the drum sounded, like a hundred flowers blooming. The woman dancing in the middle had black hair like clouds, eyebrows and eyes like paintings, and her cheeks were bright and charming with a little makeup. Everyone's eyes were cast on this beautiful woman leading the dance, and they couldn't help but sigh one after another.

"Whose daughter is this woman?"

"Or maybe just an ordinary dancer."

The Emperor was chatting and laughing with Master Jiang, who was sitting a little closer to him at the table. Both of them were just as humble and arrogant as they were when they were young, and they were full of ambition.

"It has been a long time since I have seen Your Majesty so happy." Mr. Jiang raised his glass as a gesture of greeting and drank it all in one gulp.

The emperor smiled calmly, looking amiable, "Brother Jiang, of the six heroes back then, only you two are now the ones I can meet. I really miss the past."

"I dare to call you Brother Shen. I believe no one will forget your chivalry and bravery. Alas, things are unpredictable. Yue Zhi has disappeared without a trace, Yun Chu is nowhere to be found, and An Chen has also disappeared." Master Jiang looked sad, and every word he said was full of sorrow. "Among the six heroes, only Brother Shen is still as good as before."

"Brother Jiang, you are joking. Come, let's drink and sing!"

After tasting all the delicious food, Xu An twisted his wrist contentedly and looked up to admire the beauty in her fluttering skirt.

That lead dancer looks familiar...

Xu An rubbed his eyes and tried to see the woman clearly, but no matter how he looked, he seemed to have seen her somewhere.

"Your Majesty, it is an honor to have nobles from the Western Regions visiting our city. How about a duel to show off our Mu An's talent?" Wang Huancheng on the side suggested a duel, which was exactly what the people from the Western Regions wanted.

"Minister Wang's suggestion is a good one. Our great country in the Western Regions admires Mu An's warriors very much. Your Majesty, I have heard that Princess Li Yang is both civil and military. Can we see her for ourselves?"

Asu Yuyi, the eldest prince of the Western Regions, toasted the emperor.

Shen Ran smiled lightly and bowed to the emperor, "Shen Ran is willing to help entertain the banquet."

"Okay, okay, that's enough then."

As soon as the emperor opened his mouth, the dancers withdrew one after another.

Shen Ran saluted with his sword, and cast a provocative look towards the Western Regions, "Is there anyone in your country willing to teach me?"

"I come!"

Asu Yuyi walked out with his hands behind his back, saluted the emperor and then saluted Shen Ran.

"Princess Liyang is famous for her swordplay, and her zither skills are superb. We have come here to learn from her."

"please."

The two men each held a sword and quickly drew their swords towards each other, like silver dragons intertwining.

When it comes to swordplay, Shen Ran is agile and can always dodge Asu Yuyi's attacks, so he is naturally one step ahead of his opponent.

Xu An tapped the tabletop lightly with his index finger, looking very bored. "Ze An, do you think I can go up and compete with Shen Ran?"

"If Shen Ran loses, you might be able to compare yourself with the prince from the Western Regions."

"That's fine, but I'd rather pin her down myself."

Xu An lowered his eyes and thought for a moment.

After the competition, Asu Yuyi did not gain any advantage, but Shen Ran did not hurt him at all. "Princess Liyang is really good at swordplay. Can I see her piano skills?"

The so-called piano skills are the spiritual arts of the Fantasy Sound Harp. Shen Ran knows that this person is not a good person. If he uses spiritual power, he may not be his opponent.

"The eldest prince's spiritual power in conquering the four directions is naturally superior to my Huanyinqin, so I won't embarrass myself."

"Hahaha, is there any other warrior in Mu An who dares to fight me?"

A person stood up at the table, dressed in white clothes as white as snow, as graceful and mysterious as a jade figure carved out of beautiful jade.

Before the man could speak, Xu An took off his white velvet cloak and jumped out, standing in front of everyone, "Prince, please teach me."

As soon as Xu An appeared, the crowd in the hall became noisy and the discussions gradually became louder.

"Who is this lady? How come I have never seen her before?"

"You are very beautiful, but are you married?"

She was wearing a water-blue dress, with her long hair half tied up. The silver needles of the past were replaced by jade hairpins in her hair. Her face was as white as snow, like a flower in the early spring, and her eyes were shimmering. Although cold, she was still bright and beautiful. She smiled, like a peach blossom in spring, delicate and charming.

The young man in white clenched his hands and sat down. He understood what Xu An had done.

"May I ask your name, my lady?"

Xu An took off a silver bracelet from his wrist, and with his two fingers, the silver bracelet flew into the air and suddenly turned into a sword, the Shun'an Sword.

Then she opened her lips slightly and said with a smile: "My name is Xu An, Prince."

"Xu, An. Are you the well-known Ninth Miss of the Marquis' Mansion? I heard that you are dull and stupid, but after seeing you today, you are not the same as the rumors said."

"It is natural that the truth cannot be distinguished when rumors are spread. Please enlighten me."

Asu Yuyi didn't say much, he first attacked with the sword to test Xu An's strength.

During the meal, the young man with half his face covered twisted the cake that fell on the table and cast a stern look at the man in white.

Although Xu An's moves were not as diverse as Shen Ran's, his flexible waist and quick movements were enough to dodge the sword.

She stepped on her foot and jumped up, scattering a talisman into the air, instantly surrounding the arena where the two were fighting, forming a barrier to protect the people at the table from being affected.

"My dear prince, I am sorry for the injustice."

Seeing Xu An's posture, everyone was a little surprised, "Is he going to learn spiritual arts from the eldest prince?"

"This Miss Xu is really a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers."

"Except for the third prince, the eldest prince has the most powerful spiritual power. It seems that he will inevitably lose face today."

There were sighs outside the barrier, but Madam Xia didn't care. She believed that her daughter would be able to show her charm, just like the woman who appeared out of thin air that year.

"I say, do you really want to fight me with spiritual arts? Aren't you afraid of losing face?"

"My dear prince, my face is worthless. If I lose, I will still be commended for my courage. Don't you agree?"

Just as he finished speaking, a bolt of lightning struck from the man opposite him, as if he wanted to knock Xu An down with one blow.

This handsome guy is so explosive as soon as he arrives.

Xu An leaped into the air and flipped to a position very close to the emperor, and the people in front of her could also see her graceful figure.

"A dead tree in the sea."

Several wooden vines flew towards Asu Yuyi like arrows.

Since you use thunder, the wood is an insulator.

Asu Yuyi raised his hand and cast a spell to point at the wooden vine in an attempt to ignite it, but the wooden vine used by Xu An was dry but protected by spiritual power, so it could not be ignited.

Ze An saw this familiar wooden vine, frowned and pinched his palm tightly. He never thought that Yan Muyi had also formed a bond with Xu An? A surge of anger surged into his mind.

Asu Yuyi gathered his power with both hands, and the bright spiritual power formed a huge ball of thunder. It was difficult for Xu An to dodge this attack.

She opened her palms slightly and waved them in the air, then her right hand passed through and raised up, and her left hand, which was shining green, was placed three fists in front of her heart with the palm facing down. The right palm was like a twinkling star, and the gathered spiritual power gradually became fairy-like.

The oncoming thunder ball had a strong impact, so Xu An stepped back, leaned forward, and cast a spell to block it.

The two spiritual powers collided and formed a huge two-color barrier, which made some family members at the table raise their hands to block the light.

Xu An rolled over behind him and landed right in front of Asu Pei Ye. He saw her holding the sword made of spiritual power in her slender hands, her eyes looking calm and composed.

He half-closed his eyes and looked at Xu An, shaking the wine glass in his hand again and again.

Seeing this, Asu Yuyi turned around and leaped back, casting a spell in the air towards Xu An, but Xu An dodged it by bending down steadily. This attack did break some of the barrier, right at Asu Peiye's position.

Xu An raised her hand to control the spirit sword. Her skirt fluttered and her hair danced. Within the barrier, their powerful spirit powers spread like the wind.

"Something."

"Excellent."

Without further ado, she spun her hand and waved it. A wisp of spiritual mist floated around her wrist, quickly forming a circle of light that looked more like a magic circle.

The green color with burning flames spread over the edge of the magic circle and gradually expanded.

Then Xu An waved his palm forward, and the magic circle spun in the air like a flywheel. Asu Yuyi's brows gradually furrowed, he did not expect that the woman in front of him could form the magic circle so easily.

He crossed his hands and pulled them apart, and suddenly a light shone everywhere. A lightning sword filled with spiritual power pierced towards Xu An's legs and just passed through the center of the aperture. Seeing this, Xu An withdrew his hands and turned around.

Then a terrified shout was heard, "The barrier is broken!"

She turned her head and saw Asu Yuyi's lightning passing through the barrier and attacking the seat at the table. Without time to think, Xu An flew over, as if he was trying to pounce or grab the lightning sword.

As the barrier broke into pieces and dissipated, about to hit the handsome man's forehead, Xu An just leaned forward and reached out to grasp the magic sword.

At this moment, their eyes met, and they could only see that the man had blond hair and blue eyes, with strands of golden hair, and his hair swaying in the breeze.

This familiar hair color and face...

Ah, Asu Pei Ye? !

Why is he here?

Asu Peiye's originally frozen expression suddenly raised a playful smile, his eyebrows relaxed, and his eyelashes seemed to be shining. He smiled very softly and said, "See you again, my lady."

Xu An was stunned for a moment, then stood with his sword in hand. At this moment, cheers rose in the hall, "This Miss Xu is truly an amazing woman!"

"We won! Hahaha, I didn't expect that our Mu'an has hidden talents."

Xu An turned around in confusion and saw Asu Yuyi kneeling on the ground, supporting himself with one hand and wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth with the other. He looked seriously injured.

It turned out that the magic circle that had just been formed hit Asu Yuyi squarely. He tried to dodge but the magic circle was too repressive, as if it was locked on him.

Xu An smashed the lightning sword, and when she raised her hand, she found two cuts on her palm. She didn't feel much pain, and it seemed that the adrenaline surged and she didn't feel much for a while.

The emperor was delighted and clapped his hands in praise, "Brother Jiang, your lady really opened my eyes."

Amid the excitement of the crowd, Xu An walked up to Asu Yuyi, squatted down, raised his hand and cast a spell, "All spirits are born, unite."

Asu Yuyi raised her head and frowned, with confusion in her eyes. He only saw that her expression was peaceful, and the spiritual power on her fingertips was flashing, shining like stars. Then he felt that the pain in the injured area was relieved a lot. As Xu An was healed, his spiritual power also recovered.

He asked in confusion: "Why are you healing me?"

Xu Anke didn't think too much about why. She originally wanted to fight with Shen Ran, but she couldn't fight internally in this situation. She could only defeat the person defeated by Shen Ran to show her strength.

"No fight, no acquaintance. You are very powerful, and I admire you very much. Besides, my style is like this, and we would like to join hands with the Western Region to fight the enemy. This is the only sincerity I can show you, Great Prince, thank you for your advice."

The two stood up, Xu An saluted, Asu Yuyi raised the corner of his lips and returned the salute: "Yuyi looked down on Miss Xu, please forgive me."
