Master of Martial Arts, please enjoy a drunken revelry in the martial world.

Chapter 278 Ximen Chuixue

The number one estate in the world.

Gu Qianbei returned with Xiaoyuer and Etongtian, and introduced them to Haitang.

Without hesitation, Haitang arranged a test for Xiaoyuer by the world's number one troublemaker.

For the little fish, this was naturally a simple test that he could easily handle.

He was already mischievous, and on Devil's Island he inherited the skills of the Master of Mischief, making his mischievousness truly unparalleled.

Therefore, Little Fish easily got rid of this title.

After all, there aren't many competitors for this title.

I doubt anyone with this hobby has the skill of Little Fish.

Congratulations, Brother Fish.

"Congratulations! We're colleagues now!"

Little Fish cupped his hands and smiled.

Under Haitang's arrangement, Xiaoyuer moved into the No.1 Manor in the World and began his Go learning journey.

Of course, Gu Qianbei kept her promise and gave him the Ten Thousand Poisons Vermilion Elixir.

"Old Gu, you're a true friend! I, Xiaoyuer, will always consider you my brother!"

This was the first time Xiaoyuer had ever felt such pure kindness, which warmed his heart immensely.

Gu Qianbei just smiled when he heard this.

When Little Fish isn't being mischievous, he's indeed a good friend.

Life returned to normal.

A few days later, Xiaoyuer learned the basics of Go and, carrying several Go manuals given to him by the Go master, prepared to return to Devil Island to save Yan Nantian.

As for the Zhenlong Chess Game, he will attend on time.

After all, Xiaoyuer didn't want to miss such a good opportunity.

After Xiaoyuer left, undercurrents began to stir in the capital.

Because the decisive battle at the top of the Forbidden City is about to begin.

But before this decisive battle, a major incident occurred at the Southern Prince's Mansion.

After gathering sufficient evidence, Yin Kuang seized and confiscated the Nanwang Mansion on charges of treason.

The imperial court was thrown into turmoil.

Some people wanted to plead for leniency, but after seeing the irrefutable evidence, they dared not speak, fearing that the emperor would conveniently eliminate them as well.

Interestingly, it was Cao Zhengchun of the Eastern Depot who investigated this matter!

At this moment, Cao Zhengchun became the sharpest knife in the emperor's hand, handling this treason case thoroughly.

Neither the Dragon Guard Manor nor the Six Doors had time to intervene.

"This young emperor's methods are becoming increasingly sophisticated; he's so decisive and efficient."

Zhu Wushi's expression was not good, because he had originally planned to sit back and watch the two tigers fight.

Unexpectedly, before the tigers even started fighting, the mountain was gone.

It's clear that we won't be able to enjoy this spectacle.

"The Eastern Depot...it seems that to overthrow the young emperor, the Eastern Depot must be abolished first."

Zhu Wushi began to formulate a plan to eliminate the Eastern Depot.

The destruction of the Southern Prince's Mansion left Ye Gucheng, who was originally the commander of the Southern Prince's Mansion's guards, in a very awkward position.

Ye Gucheng naturally didn't want to be captured, so he ran away.

His escape completely ruined the epic battle at the Forbidden City.

Countless martial arts practitioners who wanted to watch the battle were also very disappointed.

The person most furious about this was Ximen Chuixue!

call out!

In the courtyard, Ximen Chuixue thrust his sword at Lu Xiaofeng, the tip landing on his throat, just a hair's breadth away from taking his life.

Lu Xiaofeng swallowed hard, then said awkwardly, "Ximen Chuixue, you can't blame me for this. I just happened to find out about the Southern Prince's rebellion, so I couldn't just not tell the Emperor, could I?"

And since Ye Gucheng was also involved in this matter, he naturally had no choice but to become a fugitive.

"I don't care. My opponent is gone, and you need to compensate me."

"Or, you can be my opponent."

Lu Xiaofeng's expression immediately turned extremely miserable.

"As you know, I could still hold my own against you a couple of years ago, but now your swordsmanship has reached a level I can't even fathom. I'm no match for you."

I'm afraid I won't last two moves before I die by your sword.

"I need an opponent."

Ximen Chuixue's voice remained indifferent.

He had finally waited for the decisive battle at the Forbidden City, but unexpectedly, something went wrong at this crucial moment.

This made him very unhappy.

He needed an outlet for his anger.

Lu Xiaofeng's mind raced, and suddenly he thought of something. He said, "I know someone whose swordsmanship is also extremely high. You might be able to fight him and perhaps even break through your bottleneck."

"Who?"

"Gu Qianbei!"

Ximen Chuixue frowned slightly.

"That winemaker? Can his swordsmanship compare to Ye Gucheng's?"

"Possibly. His strength has improved extremely quickly. A few months ago, he easily defeated Kim Gu-ryeong, and he's definitely stronger now."

"Jin Jiuling? What's so special about defeating that kind of trash?"

Ximen Chuixue looked on with disdain.

"It's different. When I met Brother Gu a year ago, he was only at the Innate Realm."

Look how much progress this has made.

I think even if he's not your match now, he'll probably be able to compete with you soon.

But if you challenge him to a duel now, you can't go all out.

Lu Xiaofeng said.

Upon hearing this, Ximen Chuixue looked thoughtful and finally sheathed his sword.

"Sounds like a formidable opponent. Where is he? I'm going to find him."

"It's in the number one manor in the world! I'll take you there right away!"

Putting aside the competition, Brother Gu's brewing skills are simply superb.

In the past, even if we didn't compete in swordsmanship, being able to have a couple of drinks was considered a bonus.

Led by Lu Xiaofeng, Ximen Chuixue arrived at Qianchou Si.

Gu Qianbei was enjoying Wanwan feeding him grapes in the rocking chair when the two of them suddenly arrived, shattering this blissful moment.

"Brother Gu, you really know how to enjoy yourself."

Lu Xiaofeng looked on with envy.

He had lived that kind of life before, but the person who fed him grapes wasn't as good-looking.

"Life is all about enjoyment."

However, judging from your arrival, things seem a bit more complicated than they appear.

As Gu Qianbei spoke, his gaze fell on Ximen Chuixue.

This was their first meeting.

But Gu Qianbei could already sense a terrifying fighting spirit emanating from Ximen Chuixue.

That was a fighting spirit that had been brewing for a long time but had nowhere to be released.

If he doesn't unleash this fighting spirit, Ximen Chuixue might go crazy.

Thinking of this, Gu Qianbei felt a little embarrassed.

The cancellation of the decisive battle at the Forbidden City was indeed largely due to him.

If it weren't for him, everything would probably be the same as usual.

"I initially thought Lu Xiaofeng was deceiving me. But after arriving here, I realized he underestimated you."

You are a good swordsman, and no less skilled than me.

I never expected that besides Ye Gucheng, there would be such a young and outstanding swordsman like you in the martial arts world.

Today was worthwhile.

I, Ximen Chuixue, volunteer for battle.

As Ximen Chuixue spoke, his sword intent and fighting spirit erupted simultaneously, and his terrifying aura instantly enveloped the entire Thousand Sorrows Market.

The nearby No. 1 Manor naturally sensed this as well.

In an instant, all the experts from the number one manor in the world were mobilized and rushed over to see what had happened.

Seeing Ximen Chuixue's fighting spirit erupt, Gu Qianbei raised an eyebrow.

He never expected that without Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuixue would actually come to challenge him to a fight.
