Madam, protect me!

The top of Shushan Mountain.

A figure moved swiftly with a sword, and a rolling passage appeared between the sea of ​​clouds, which was quickly filled with clouds and mist.

Two days later.

Chang'an, Ministry of Rites.

Li Nuo opened Shushan's reply. This martial arts conference will be attended by the five masters of Shushan, including the head of Shushan.

At this point, all the first-class sects in Daxia Wulin, as well as the only super-first-class sect, are sure to be present.

What happens next is very simple.

He first arranged for this Shushan disciple to stay in Chang'an, and the Ministry of Rites would make the crown robes and tokens for the Shushan masters as soon as possible, and let him take them back with him when the time comes.

Li Nuo spent the whole day today in the Ministry of Etiquette, writing invitations by hand for those second-rate sects.

Although they are only a second-rate sect, if they want to be called a second-rate sect, they must have at least one grandmaster within the sect.

That night, twenty-one invitation letters were handed out through the court's post house.

…

Jingzhou, Crazy Sword Sect.

Although it is only a second-rate sect, the influence of the Kuangdao Sect in Ningzhou is greater than that of the first-rate sects in the martial arts world.

The Kuangdao Sect is not only a martial arts sect, but also a martial arts studio and a bodyguard bureau.

If the people of Jingzhou have a need for martial arts training, escorting, or bodyguards, they will usually come to the Crazy Sword Sect.

In Jingzhou, even the business of Zhaixing Tower is not as good as that of Kuangdao Sect.

If Star Reaching Tower is a powerful dragon, then Crazy Blade Sect is undoubtedly a local snake.

A hundred years ago, a sword master took root in Jingzhou, founded the Kuang Dao Sect, and began to recruit disciples.

That grandmaster has passed away, but to this day, the Crazy Blade Sect still has one grandmaster, seven martial arts masters in the Material Control Realm, and countless sects below the fourth realm.

As a local gang, although Kuangdaomen belongs to the martial arts world, it is also inextricably linked to the local government.

At this time, inside the Crazy Blade Gate, a tall, muscular, red-faced old man welcomed a middle-aged official in official uniform into the hall, and said with a smile: "I'm still wondering why there are suddenly magpies outside today. Yell, it turned out that I knew Master Wei was going to visit..."

Although he had a smile on his face, he was still muttering in his heart.

This Wei Bapi came here today. Could it be that he wants money again?

His grandma, this happened so many times, he wished he could kill this greedy dog ​​official with a knife.

But in that case, the Kuangdao Sect founded by the ancestors would not be able to escape the fate of destruction.

If the court wanted to crush them, it would be no more difficult than crushing an ant.

The middle-aged official also had a smile on his face. After sitting down, he took out a stack of silver notes from his sleeve, put it on the table, and said: "Please accept these silver coins, Master Liu. I have not been sensible in the past few years. If I do anything that makes Clan Master Liu unhappy, please forgive me. The extra money will be regarded as compensation for Clan Master Liu..."

The red-faced old man was slightly startled.

These banknotes are more than the Kuangdao Sect has paid to this corrupt official over the years.

Did this guy take the wrong medicine today, or did he suddenly change his temper?

There may be some fraud in this!

The corners of his eyes twitched and he said with a smile: "Master Wei, what are you doing? I can't accept this money!"

"No, no, no, Master Liu must accept it!"

"No, no!"

The red-faced old man continued to refuse, and the middle-aged official knelt on the ground with a bang, hugged his legs, and cried with tears in his nose: "Master Liu, I have been studying hard for twenty years in Hanchuang, and finally I finally got the job." After passing the exam, I got obsessed and greedy for some money. You are a great master. I have a lot of money. Please let me go..."

The red-faced old man looked at him blankly, not knowing how to respond, let alone what happened.

At this time, a man walked in from outside, glanced at the middle-aged official kneeling on the ground, and without saying anything, handed an invitation to the red-faced old man and said: "Dad, this is an invitation from the court. Take a look..."

"Invitation from the imperial court?"

The red-faced old man looked even more suspicious. What did the court ask him to do?

He frowned and looked over suspiciously, but soon, his frown relaxed.

I see.

There are so many first-class sects who are going to attend the conference. How dare they, the Crazy Blade Sect, refuse to do so? What’s more, participating in this conference will bring many unexpected benefits.

Being able to directly impeach local officials, it is no wonder that this dog official's attitude suddenly changed today. He must have received the news in advance.

He put away the banknotes with confidence and said with a smile: "It's easy to talk, Mr. Wei, please get up first..."

Yanzhou.

Youlong Villa.

Youlong Villa is not a martial arts sect, but a martial arts family that has been passed down for a long time.

He used the dragon body technique to prevent himself from attacking, and found new ways to attack, and gained a lot of fame in the martial arts world.

They never recruit disciples from outside, and their skills are only passed down to family members. Just because the owner of the villa is a master-level expert, the villa is quite respected by the local martial arts people.

At this moment, in Youlong Villa, a handsome middle-aged man looked at the invitation in his hand, feeling quite surprised.

This is the first time that the imperial court has held a martial arts conference.

He didn't want to get involved in these things, and he didn't have much interest in the privileges of those masters.

But some of the words on the invitation were really scary.

Sanqing Sect, Wuyue Sword Sect, Shushan... all the famous sects in the martial arts world are on it.

It was impossible for him to refuse, nor did he dare to refuse.

Both the Sanqing Sect and Shushan took the invitation from the imperial court so seriously. Who did they think of visiting Longshan Villa? How could they have any room to refuse?

Yuezhou, Silver Spear Gate.

Wuzhou, Tianying Sect.

Lizhou, Shenzhang Sect.

…

Within a few days, many sects in Daxia received invitations from the imperial court.

Three months later, the Daxia court will hold a grand martial arts conference in Chang'an, inviting many sects to participate.

Although the invitation stated that whether to participate in this martial arts conference was entirely voluntary for each faction.

But who dares to really volunteer?

The Five Mountains Sword Sect, Shushan, and even the Sanqing Sect have to give face to the court. Who are they?

Not going this time.

Someone might come to your door next time.

Not to mention, most of the sects are looking forward to this trip.

This is a rare opportunity to discuss and communicate with martial arts masters. If they were alone, they might worry about being scolded as the lackeys of the imperial court, but with so many sects going, they naturally have no worries.

Other sects want to go, but they are not qualified yet.

After asking around, people in the martial arts world discovered that only second-rate and above sects would be invited by the imperial court.

There is not even a grandmaster in the sect, and there is no invitation at all.

This is obviously a high-level conference. The sects that can be invited represent the recognition of the imperial court. The masters who participate in this conference can also obtain certain privileges.

All sects that received the invitation actively responded to the call and responded immediately.

The small sects that did not receive the invitation were unhappy and secretly competing. If there was a grandmaster among the sects, they would be eligible to be invited to the next martial arts conference.

At the same time, they are also extremely greedy for the privileges of the Grand Masters.

Ministry of Rites.

Li Nuo was sitting in the government office. In the past few days, almost every day, the Rites Department would receive responses from some martial arts sects.

The Wuyue Sword Sect and Shushan both focus on swordsmanship.

As for the masters of these sects, they have all kinds of skills. Some are proficient in boxing, palm, and fingering, and there are even those who become masters purely through body skills. In terms of weapons, there are also sword skills, spear skills, whip skills, stick skills, etc....

At this point, his plan has successfully taken the first step.

As long as they arrive in Chang'an, Li Nuo has the final say.

Other arrangements for the martial arts conference were also progressing steadily and orderly. At this point, he finally took a break from his busy schedule.

After taking a long breath of relief, Li Nuo left the Ministry of Rites.

When I got home, I saw Phoenix there.

She was waiting for her wife to finish practicing, and the two of them made an appointment to go on an outing and sketch.

When she saw Li Nuo, she winked slightly at Li Nuo.

Phoenix's sudden wink made Li Nuo stunned for a moment, and then he understood something.

He turned around and walked out again, and soon came to Yuyin Pavilion.

He entered through the back door with ease, climbed up the ladder that had been prepared long ago, climbed through the window and entered Fenghuang's boudoir. As soon as he landed, a fragrant wind blew over him.

Li Nuo hugged An Ning and walked around. They hadn't seen each other for several days, so naturally they had a breathless and in-depth communication first.

"Have you missed me these days?"

"think."

"How much do you think?"

"I really, really want to."

"How much do you want it?"

…

Once a woman falls in love, she becomes a different person.

When he first met An Ning, she could be described as cold and dazzling. At that time, Li Nuo never imagined that one day, she would sit on his lap, lean into his arms, and say these disgusting love words.

"Say..."

She twisted her body coquettishly, but this twist hurt Li Nuo.

Although she didn't look as charming as Phoenix, her figure was no worse than that of Phoenix. Who could bear it, just straddling his lap and twisting around like this?

To show respect, Li Nuo responded immediately.

Li Anning suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

These days, she has been learning the etiquette of the boudoir from the female officials in the palace, so she naturally knows what it means.

Her face turned red and she didn't dare to move anymore.

But seeing Li Nuo's expression, which looked a little uncomfortable, she hesitated for a long time, lowered her head shyly, and asked, "Do you want me to help you?"

Li Nuo was feeling uncomfortable and didn't understand what she meant, so he asked, "What can I help you with?"

As soon as he finished speaking, his body suddenly stiffened and he took a breath: "Hiss..."
