Your Majesty, Please Stop!

Chapter 123: Testing and Choosing

Zhao Laozi?

"The Alliance Leader?"

Mentioning the words "Alliance Leader," Xin Zhuo even thought of Sun Wu, who didn't know where he had run off to.

But he had no relationship with this Zhao Laozi, so why would he come looking for him?

Subconsciously, he asked, "May I ask what's the matter?"

The servant bowed respectfully and said, "I don't know, please follow me, esteemed guest."

"Alright."

Xin Zhuo nodded and followed the servant.

Passing through the main courtyard, they entered the guest residence, but they didn't stop there. They continued through layer after layer of pavilions until they reached the grand and imposing reception hall of the main house.

As soon as they entered the gate, Xin Zhuo sensed that he was being locked onto by a strong aura. Seven or eight sharp gazes all looked at him at once.

Xin Zhuo looked around and saw Zhao Laozi, who he had only seen from a distance before, sitting in the main seat in his magnificent brocade robe. His rough hands were placed on the armrests, and his gaze was cold.

Very strong! Sixth rank, and he has been at that level for a long time!

Sitting beside him was a middle-aged man with a clean-shaven face and a square face as if it had been carved with a knife. His expression was equally cold.

Probably sixth rank, he must be Ge San Ye, the master swordsman of the main family.

There were six others, one of whom was a big monk, all of them either sixth rank or close to sixth rank!

From the fluctuations of their blood qi, they were even stronger than the four masters of the Fufeng family.

Facing eight experts who had reached the sixth rank, Xin Zhuo felt a strong pressure. Even though he dared to face Murong Zhe and the others and defeat them, he would never underestimate these eight people in front of him.

People cannot be compared.

The four masters of the Murong family were used to being pampered and living a comfortable life. Their martial arts and cultivation techniques were actually quite ordinary, far inferior to these bloodthirsty martial arts experts.

If he successfully controlled the spirit and performed the ritual, wouldn't he be able to reach the fifth rank?

Suppressing his excitement, Xin Zhuo immediately put on the appearance of an ordinary person and respectfully saluted, "I, Jiang Facai, have seen all the seniors!"

No one spoke, they continued to scrutinize him.

After dozens of breaths, the Alliance Leader Zhao Laozi spoke with authority, "Indeed, you have a good disguise!"

Xin Zhuo didn't know how to respond.

But Ge San Ye sneered and asked, "It is said that you are from Lingyi City, and your grandmother was captured by Xin Aotian to be his concubine?"

Xin Zhuo nodded, "Yes!"

"Bold!"

Ge San Ye was furious and slammed the armrest, his words like knives, "The guests who came this time are all people from the martial world, and they all have clear grievances with that old thief Xin. Only you have an unknown background and no martial arts skills. Who are you? Who sent you to infiltrate our Ge family's estate?"

Too much anger, not enough energy, are you trying to deceive me? Child's play.

Xin Zhuo immediately said with a grievance, "What does senior mean? Every word I said is true. Why would senior say such things?"

Zhao Laozi stroked his beard and said emotionlessly, "We have already sent people to investigate. There is no one like you in Lingyi County. Why don't you confess?"

Hearing this, Xin Zhuo instantly felt relieved.

He had just arrived yesterday, and even if he had attracted their attention, it should have been after the incident with Qin Lirong and the female warriors. Even if they immediately sent someone to Lingyi County, considering the Qinggong of a sixth rank practitioner, it would take at least two to three days for a round trip, not to mention the time it would take to investigate the nearly one hundred thousand people in Lingyi County.

And that incident was not particularly special or attention-grabbing. Perhaps it was only after Feng Sanniang and Ling Furen had a fight last night that they became suspicious. In this case, the possibility of them going to Lingyi City to investigate on their own was even lower.

This old man is not very good at bragging.

With confidence in his heart, Xin Zhuo suddenly raised his head and angrily said, "What do you mean, seniors? My grandmother was taken by Xin Aotian, how could I fake it? I am someone who doesn't know any martial arts. Who would send me?"

You esteemed heroes are renowned throughout the land, why do you humiliate a nobody like me? Since that's the case, I will go to Fulong Mountain myself to seek revenge from Xin Zhuo. If I die, so be it!"

Mr. Zhao and Mr. Ge exchanged glances, their faces slightly cleared.

Xin Zhuo turned around to leave.

"Hold on!"

Mr. Ge shouted.

Xin Zhuo turned back, still looking angry. "What else?"

Mr. Ge smiled, but temporarily ignored him and looked at Mr. Zhao and the other experts. "What do you think? This Xin Lao thief is full of evil deeds, truly outrageous!"

"To not rob a young girl, but instead rob an old woman, it's truly unexpected and simply inhumane!" A fat man laughed.

"This statement is inappropriate!" A square-faced man, who looked like someone owed him money, said coldly. "This kid has a face that is even more charming than a girl's. If a boy takes after his mother, and if the son is as good-looking as the father, I'm afraid his grandmother is also a beautiful woman with charm!"

Although it was clearly a mocking remark, he said it with righteous indignation.

Mr. Zhao sighed deeply. "Who among us hasn't suffered at the hands of Xin Lao thief? Brother Wu hadn't even reached the sixth rank back then, and his wife was violated. Brother Qian did reach the sixth rank, but unfortunately he wasn't a match for Xin Lao thief. His daughter was taken and played with, and then sold to a brothel. Even I couldn't defeat him back then. All the money in my house was stolen, squandered away. What can I do?"

"Alas!"

The others stopped teasing and fell silent.

After a while, Mr. Ge looked at Xin Zhuo, who had already calmed down, and asked, "Do you know why we called you here?"

"I'm not sure!" Xin Zhuo shook his head. "Besides trying to deceive me, is there something else?"

Mr. Ge clapped his hands.

Three people walked out from the side room, three female warriors: Feng San Niang and Ling Fu Ren, with messy hair and injuries on their faces, and Song Xi Jun, standing straight with white clothes like snow.

Mr. Ge couldn't help but laugh. "These three female warriors all want to become your martial arts partners, and they even fought each other for you. You can choose one!"

"Hehe..." The experts smiled at each other.

Xin Zhuo felt extremely disgusted. He had plans to hold a memorial ceremony, break through to the Small Great Master level, heal his injuries, and then break through to the Grand Great Master level. After that, he would go to the capital to seek revenge on Dongfang Lao Gui, Mie Ling Lao Ni, and Hui Ru Qing. That was all he had in mind. Where did he have the energy to deal with these things?

But Feng San Niang and the other two women could understand. What was Song Xi Jun thinking?

He glanced at the three female warriors.

The three female warriors looked expectant and took a step forward at the same time.

Mr. Zhao looked at them and said coldly, "I don't understand you young girls of the martial world. There are so many heroes to choose from, but you insist on choosing this young man with a good face. What are you planning to do? Let me make it clear, no matter who he chooses, the others cannot have any complaints. The main goal is to exterminate Xin Lao thief's grandson, dig up Xin Lao dog's grave, and wash away the grievances. Establishing a good reputation among the martial world is the priority! Otherwise, don't blame me for being heartless!"

So, the sense of ceremony was the most important!

"Alright!" The three female warriors responded at the same time, staring at Xin Zhuo intently.

Xin Zhuo gritted his teeth. It seemed that he couldn't get away without making a choice.

Looking at the three female warriors, he secretly analyzed the pros and cons. Feng San Niang couldn't be chosen, she was too passionate and couldn't handle it. Ling Fu Ren couldn't be chosen either, the situation wasn't right.

He should choose Song Xi Jun. After all, the main family, Mr. Ge, came from Wudang, and they had a connection. There might even be a senior brother of Qin Li Rong present. If he angered Mr. Ge and got kicked out of the estate, his plan for the memorial ceremony would be ruined.

He could only brace himself and point to Song Xi Jun. "Her!"

Song Xi Jun's eyes sparkled with excitement. She couldn't help but feel happy.

Mr. Ge and another sixth rank expert smiled at each other. "You have good taste!"

Feng San Niang was utterly disappointed, and Ling Fu Ren was already lost. She hoarsely scolded, "Why are you going back on your word, you little thief? I've already sent a message to my family, and everything for the wedding has been prepared. My daughter is waiting for her stepfather to come. You..."

"I don't like rough and brawling female warriors. I'm afraid!" Xin Zhuo shamelessly said, secretly apologizing. This was already a farce, and everyone was unfamiliar with each other.
