the next day.

The Xiao family set up the arena in Hanxing City.

The rules of the martial arts competition are very simple. Everyone is allowed to occupy the ring, and the person who can stand at the end is the winner.

"Speaking of the eldest lady of the Xiao family, I heard that she is stunningly beautiful. Many holy places and top aristocratic families are eager to marry into the Xiao family."

"Why would she stage a competition to attract a bride?"

Lin Yuan frowned and looked at Ye Lingyun beside him.

"Isn't this simple?"

Ye Lingyun was holding a skewer of candied haws in her left hand, and a sizzling and oily roasted chicken leg in her right hand. Her little face was stained with oil, just like a little tabby cat.

But her tone was far calmer than her age, "The Xiao family's fate in the Holy Realm is not long gone. This competition to recruit relatives is said to be to recruit relatives, but in fact it is to find a backing for the Xiao family."

"How to say?"

Lin Yuan became more curious after hearing this.

"The more powerful the Holy Land and family are, the more powerful the disciples they cultivate will be."

Ye Lingyun took a bite of a hawthorn ball and said, "What the Xiao family needs is a backer. To be precise, a strong person in the Holy Realm who can support them. So, of course, the stronger the better."

"Besides, the competition for marriage depends entirely on strength. In this way, the Xiao family does not reject the forces that failed to win, and no one can offend them."

“What if no Holy Land is involved?”

Lin Yuan asked with a frown.

"impossible."

Ye Lingyun said confidently, "When the Xiao family was at its peak, it was actually not much worse than your Lin family in the central region. However, the Lin family has three holy realms, and the Xiao family only has one holy realm, ancestor Xiao."

"Which Holy Land would not be tempted by a dowry from such a well-established family?"

Lin Yuan frowned even deeper after hearing this.

He felt more and more that something was wrong with the little girl Ye Lingyun. This young and mature look was very much like his ancestor Lin Qingtian who stayed with him under the pseudonym Tian Qinglin.

This girl...could she also be an old monster who has lived for thousands of years?

"What are you thinking about? This girl is a goddess. A goddess must know some things that others don't know."

Ye Lingyun rolled her eyes at Lin Yuan, then took a bite of the sizzling chicken drumstick, "Okay, let's get started."

She just finished speaking.

A middle-aged man with extraordinary bearing appeared on the ring.

"Thank you all for your honor and participation in my little girl's martial arts competition. Today, the Xiao family has prepared a banquet in the ring. We sincerely invite all young talents to show their talents!"

The middle-aged man said loudly, "The competition for marriage starts now. Who is the genius who wants to win the jackpot first?"

"I come!"

A young man wearing white clothes and holding an ancient sword in his hand stood on the stage and said, "Master Chen Bufan of Ten Thousand Swords, I would like to ask you for advice."

"Bah, it smells shameless."

Ye Lingyun rolled her eyes in the audience.

"This guy just broke through the Dao Palace this year. In terms of age, he can at least be the grandfather of the eldest daughter of the Xiao family. He even licked his face to participate in a martial arts competition to recruit a bride."

Lin Yuan suddenly noticed at this time.

Just now, Ye Lingyun had a flash of vitality in his eyes.

"Brother, let's not rush to take action. These are all rotten fish and shrimps. No Holy Land disciple who is qualified to be your opponent will take action so early."

Ye Lingyun finished eating the last candy ball and flicked the stick in her hand.

Whoosh.

A sound broke through the air, and Chen Bufan, who claimed to be the Venerable Wanjian, flew out directly and fell heavily onto the stage.

When she took action, Lin Yuan realized that Ye Lingyun was not relying on her vitality cultivation, but on the strength of her physical body.

Not only Lin Yuan, but also Xue Qinghan's eyes flashed.

This Ye Lingyun's cultivation level is only in Tongxuan realm, but her physical strength is actually... comparable to her own!

"Who dares to sneak attack me!"

Chen Bufan's face turned red. He waited for a long time, but no challenger came, but he didn't expect that someone was secretly playing tricks on him.

"I."

Ye Lingyun took a few steps forward carelessly, still holding the unfinished chicken drumstick in his hand, "I say Chen Bufan, you are over a hundred years old after all, why do you have the nerve to join in the fun?"

Chen Bufan instantly looked at Ye Lingyun.

The next second.

He was shaken all over.

"Chen has seen the goddess."

The murderous aura in Chen Bufan instantly dissipated, replaced by fear and respect.

"I borrowed the luck from my family to break through the Dao Palace. Is it for you to show off?"

A cold look flashed across Ye Lingyun's face, "Have you done what I asked you to do?"

"Goddess, I——"

Chen Bufan's voice was trembling, and he was obviously very afraid of the girl in front of him.

"roll."

Ye Lingyun snorted coldly.

"yes."

Chen Bufan took a deep breath, turned around and walked out of the crowd in embarrassment.

"Do you know this person?"

Lin Yuan looked at Ye Lingyun with some curiosity.

"Well, an ordinary warrior from the Central Region borrowed some luck from my clan to break through to the Dao Palace realm. Unexpectedly, he came to join in the fun of the Xiao family."

Ye Lingyun explained lightly.

After hearing this, Lin Yuan secretly made a note, and felt more and more that Ye Lingyun was not a simple girl.

This episode did not affect the Xiao family's competition to recruit a bride.

soon.

Talents from all walks of life began to fight in the ring.

Lin Yuan watched with great interest from the audience. He found that these Central Region warriors were indeed stronger than the Eastern Wasteland warriors in terms of strength and cultivation.

Their martial arts are more sophisticated, and despite being at the same level, their control over the use of vitality is also better.

At this time.

A figure floated towards the ring.

Seeing this person, Lin Yuan's eyes suddenly darkened.

"This is a person from the Holy Land of the Divine Court."

Lin Yuan snorted coldly.

"This is Shen Jingxin, the Holy Son of the Divine Court Holy Land. Do you recognize him, big brother?"

Ye Lingyun looked at Lin Yuan curiously.

"I don't recognize him, but Shenting Holy Land has some issues with me."

Lin Yuan explained ambiguously.

Ye Lingyun nodded after hearing this.

After Shen Jingxin came on stage, the battle in the ring suddenly became fierce.

He instantly killed a warrior who was climbing onto the ring with one move. Immediately afterwards, many disciples from the Holy Land and big families stepped onto the ring.

It should be said that this calm mind does have two brushes.

After he entered the ring, four or five Holy Land disciples came on stage one after another, but he beat them down lightly.

"Brother, it's time for you to prepare for action."

Ye Lingyun reminded in a low voice.

"Um."

Lin Yuan nodded. He was about to leave when suddenly, a confused voice came from behind him.

"Brother Lin?"

Lin Yuan turned around after hearing this and found a young man with a similar build to himself standing in front of him.

"Who are you?"

Lin Yuan frowned.

This young man's temperament and aura were so unfamiliar that he couldn't remember who this person was for a while.

"It's me."

The young man stretched out his hand and wiped it on his face, and then the energy in his body also changed.

At this time.

His true appearance was revealed.

"Chen Jinghong?"

Lin Yuan's frown suddenly deepened. Not long ago, when he first came to Zhongyu, he was plotted by the shopkeeper of Chenjiafang City.

This account.

He hasn't forgotten it yet!
