C276 Recruitment of Guards

0After Xing Mengheng returned, he told Xingtian about his conversation with Ling Tianyu. When Xingchen heard it, her expression was the same as his back then. No matter what, they had to be on good terms with Ling Tianyu.    

    

As for the matter of Ling Tianyu participating in the selection of the guards, Xingchen had already made up his mind. If Ling Tianyu failed, then there would only be one more spot for him.    

    

As Xing Meng Heng left, the eldest young master of the Xing Family, Xing Meng Shan, walked in with a man in a brocade robe.    

    

Stellar Dream Mountain, early Life and Death Stage, in its early thirties, and the junior sect master of the Sunfire Sect, Huo Wu.    

    

He had come this time for Huo Wu.    

    

As for Huo Wu, she was the young man in the brocade robe from the Sunfire Sect. She had sent people to assassinate Ling Tianyu twice, but both times, she was unable to return and suffered heavy losses.    

    

This time, he promised the silver-masked men from the Sunfire Sect that he would help them capture Ling Tianyu from the Starmoon City.    

    

"Mengshan, why are you here? This is? "    

    

The Starmoon Hall Master held a high position in the sect. If it weren't for the fact that he was personally led by Xing Meng Shan, he probably wouldn't have had the chance to see the stars even if he were the young sect master of the Sunfire Sect.    

    

"Fire Sun Sect's Huo Wu greets the Palace Master!" Huo Wu knew the etiquette and immediately bowed down.    

    

"The Fiery Sun Sect's Huo Wu?" Stars frowned. He could understand that the Azure Sun Sect, Myriad Sword Sect, and Flying Immortal Valley had come to their Starmoon City. After all, the three sects were located around his Starmoon Hall, and they had some connections.    

    

But since the Sunfire Sect was far away in the Flower Capital and didn't normally have any connections, what was Huo Wu doing here?    

    

"Get up. I wonder what business do you have here?" The stars didn't always make people kneel.    

    

Moreover, to have his son accompany him here meant that the two of them had a very good relationship. Although the Sunfire Sect didn't think much of him, they were still a force to be reckoned with.    

    

Huo Wu didn't have the time to respond to Xing Yu's question. Xing Meng Shan quickly said, "Father, it's like this. Brother Huo Wu is here to capture a fugitive."    

    

"Fugitive?" The stars in the sky looked towards the Star Dream Mountain.    

    

Xing Meng Shan continued, "Yes, Brother Huo Wu has already told me everything. This man stole from their Fire Sun Sect and fled into our Star Moon City, and the Star Moon City is the territory of our Starmoon Hall, so Brother Huo Wu said that he must visit our Starmoon Hall. However, since Little Sister Yue Qi is recruiting guards, and the population of the Starmoon City is complicated, I brought Brother Huo Wu to ask for permission."    

    

Hearing this, Xinghe nodded his head in satisfaction. His three sons, with the exception of Third Young Master Xinghe, who was infatuated with women, both Xingmeng Mountain and Xingmeng were very much at ease.    

    

"Mm. Since that's the case, you can help Brother Huo Wu catch the fugitive. However, don't affect the others." Xingchen waved his hand and said.    

    

"Many thanks to Star Hall Master!" There was an excited expression on Huo Wu's face, and she quickly expressed her thanks. The words' nephew 'from Xing Ji made him feel as if he had drunk honey.    

    

The Star Dream Mountain backed out with Huo Wu, but Xing Wu didn't know that the fugitive Huo Wu was actually talking about was Ling Tian Yu. If he knew about this, he would probably throw her out of Star Moon City.    

    

A sleepless night.    

    

The next day, the Starmoon City was in an uproar because today was the day to recruit guards for Little Princess Yueqi.    

    

Everyone had different opinions regarding this guard's intentions. Some of them were not only to protect Yue Qi's little princess in the battlefield, but were also suspected of having a husband.    

    

Otherwise, why was there only one guard? Although in terms of age and cultivation, it was for the sake of entering the battlefield of the five continents, but isn't the more the better?    

    

Actually, even Ling Tianyu didn't understand the meaning behind Starmoon Hall's words. However, he just wanted to return to the Eastern Continent to take a look at the battlefield, so he was too lazy to bother with it.    

    

"Everyone, today is the day that the Yue Clan is recruiting guards for Yue Qi's little princess. I believe you all should know the rules already. Warriors who are not over thirty and whose cultivation is not more than the peak of the true realm can compete on stage."    

    

In the square in the center of Starmoon City, a martial arts arena had been built. At this moment, a benevolent looking old man was standing on the martial arena and announcing loudly.    

    

There were already many young heaven's pride level experts gathered around the martial arena. Jin Wuji, Immortal Ziming, and many other familiar faces were there.    

    

Yue Han, Xing Mengheng, and the others sat at the side of the martial arena. Other than that old man, no one else of importance came out from the Starmoon Hall. It seemed that this old man was the judge of the martial arts competition.    

    

"This time's martial competition is very simple. From the moment you step onstage, we will burn an incense stick. Once the incense is extinguished, if you still haven't been thrown off the stage, then you will be the winner."    

    

The old man's words caused a commotion.    

    

"Ah, it's only the time it takes for an incense stick to burn. What if the two of them are on par with each other? What if they can last for the time it takes to burn an incense stick?"    

    

"That's right. Most of the warriors here are at the peak of the Gui Yuan Realm. At this level, it's normal for them to take an incense stick's worth of time."    

    

Indeed, this was also a loophole, but the elder did not think much of it. He said, "This is the decision of the higher ups. If the victor is not decided within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, then both of them will be eliminated."    

    

"Ah, completely eliminated? What are the rules?"    

    

Everyone was puzzled, but since Starmoon Hall was the host and the final rights were still in their hands, they didn't dare to say anything.    

    

After all, the two of them were of equal strength. If he wanted to achieve victory within the time it took for an incense stick to burn, that would involve a person's comprehensive ability. Of course, he still had his trump cards.    

    

However, if the victor was not decided, then all of them would be eliminated. This confused Ling Tianyu.    

    

However, right after the crowd spoke, a clear and melodious voice sounded.    

    

"This rule was set by this princess. Do you all dare to object?"    

    

After the voice faded away, a path opened up from the side. The crowd followed the direction of the voice and saw a young girl dressed in an embroidered dress approaching leisurely under the crowd of men and women.    

    

The woman looked to be about fourteen or fifteen years old, with a white oval face, sparkling eyes, and a willowy waist. She gave off the appearance of a beautiful girl.    

    

However, there was a hint of arrogance on her face, as though these people were mere servants in his eyes.    

    

"Heh, it seems that she really is a princess who is hard to serve." Ling Tianyu shook his head with a smile. However, no matter what, he had to take down the guard today.    

    

"Wow, this is Little Princess Yueqi, she's really pretty. I wonder how much prettier she is compared to her elder sister Yuehan."    

    

The people below began to discuss crazily, and Yue Qi seemed to enjoy this kind of praise. Even though it was a comparison between the two sisters, Yue Han didn't seem to have any complaints.    

    

"Little sister, I thought you wouldn't come again today." Yue Han softly said, pulling Yue Qi to his side and sitting her down.    

    

"How could I not come today? If you pick a person without any strength and looks to be my guard, won't I be in pain for months?"    

    

Yueqi pouted and looked towards the crowd with a hint of complaint, "But these people look pretty good. This princess can barely handle them. We'll have to see how strong they are next."    

    

As Xing Mengheng listened, he broke out into a hearty laugh. "Little Sister Yueqi, don't worry. This time around, your guards are definitely unique and unrivalled."    

    

After he finished speaking, Xing Mengheng inadvertently looked towards Ling Tianyu.
