"You just can't compare to others because you don't understand."
Everyone:! ! !
You dare to add fuel to the fire? Aren't you really afraid?
Mr. Li, you're having a great time now, but what about tonight?
Chapter 349: The Ping An Inn is in an uproar; a heartbreaking tale of the Legend of Sword and Fairy.
Everyone in the inn was waiting to see Li Chengqian make a fool of himself.
Unfortunately, there has been no further activity in rooms number one and two since Li Chengqian gave his instructions.
Seeing this, everyone had no choice but to turn their attention back to the previous topic with disappointment.
"Mr. Li, even if everything is as you say..."
"Then my Great Ming is truly worthless. The Great Ming still has many extraordinary people and talents."
"Exactly, there are always some things they don't have."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian feigned a sorrowful expression.
"That's even harder to say."
"Although the Ming Dynasty had the master thief Sikong Zhaixing, the Qin Dynasty also had Dao Zhi, who was known as the king of thieves."
"His lightning-fast footwork is especially impressive."
"As for the others, there are even more, but let's forget about it and talk about it later."
Li Chengqian waved his hand to interrupt the topic.
The atmosphere has been set in the right place; all that's left is for these words to spread and take hold in the wider community.
Humans are a peculiar species; they react when they realize that there are things they cannot do.
Most people will appear to be indifferent to worldly affairs.
To put it bluntly, it's just salted fish.
However, this kind of laid-back attitude is not suitable for the activities held by Ping An Inn.
Because many people know they won't get the reward, they simply don't participate.
That's why Li Chengqian used a scheme to stir up emotions among the Ming and Song dynasties'江湖 (jianghu, a term referring to the world of martial arts and chivalry), only in this way.
Only those lazy, unskilled wanderers would come to participate in the activities of Ping An Inn.
Seeing that Li Chengqian didn't want to talk about this matter, many martial arts practitioners became anxious.
"No, Mr. Li, please give us some advice on this matter."
"You don't want others to doubt your judgment, do you?"
Li Chengqian: ? ? ?
Why do these words sound so familiar?
Li Chengqian deliberately hesitated for a moment before saying, "That makes sense."
"Actually, there is still room for maneuver in this matter."
"If there had been more participants in this event, the Qin dynasty might not have won so decisively."
"After all, human strength has its limits, and the people of Qin are not omniscient or omnipotent."
"Since Ping An Inn is going to hold an event, it naturally needs to take all factors into account."
"At that time, I, Li, will definitely organize an event that everyone in the world can participate in, so you can all rest assured."
As for the reward...
"Divine weapons, rare and precious materials, martial arts manuals, everything is available."
"And I can give you all a little tip: the more people there are for this event, the greater your advantage!"
Upon hearing this, the eyes of the wandering swordsmen in the inn lit up.
Everyone: Oh?!
If you put it that way, I won't be sleepy anymore. What I'm after is divine weapons and martial arts manuals.
If having more people gives you an advantage, then I'll have the entire sect participate when I get back.
Seeing everyone's reaction, Li Chengqian's lips curled into a smile.
The opportunity to ask oneself questions is indeed precious, but this reward only attracts experts and has little appeal to ordinary martial arts practitioners.
Because they know that no matter how you calculate it, this reward will never come to them.
But things are different for me. Everyone in the world can participate, which means that everyone in the world has a chance to win.
Even if we can't get first place, getting third or fourth place isn't bad either!
After the crowd below calmed down a bit, Li Chengqian waved his folding fan and said, "The small talk is over, let's begin the storytelling session."
The inn fell silent instantly upon hearing this.
"Continuing from the previous story, in order to delay the time for the Heavenly Demon Emperor to break the tower, Jing Tian prepared to go to the Demon Locking Tower alone."
"But after arriving at the Demon Locking Tower, Jing Tian discovered..."
"The demons and monsters at the bottom of the Demon-Sealing Tower have all been cleared out."
"Jing Tian was completely baffled by this, but as he ventured deeper into the Demon Locking Tower..."
Jing Tian discovered that Long Kui had entered the Demon Locking Tower ahead of time in order to clear obstacles for her brother.
Li Chengqian's voice echoed in the inn, and everyone's hearts were in their throats.
"Mr. Li is really annoying. Why did he have to arrange such a plot?"
"Jing Tian, Long Kui, and Xue Jian are risking their lives to buy time."
Xu Changqing was also caught in a dilemma.
"On one side are my brothers who have shared life and death with me, and on the other side is my own biological daughter."
"No matter what choice you make, it will cause you lifelong suffering, okay?"
Everyone is condemning Li Chengqian and hoping that Mr. Li can change the plot.
However, in response to the reactions of the crowd, Li Chengqian simply put down his teacup and said calmly.
"Life is full of disappointments, and although some things may seem easy to change, everything is actually predetermined."
"Jing Tian and Xu Changqing are just a story told by Li."
"But isn't this also a reflection of your lives?"
“Jing Tian can choose not to go to the Demon Locking Tower, and Xu Changqing can choose not to sacrifice Qing’er.”
"But they all chose the most difficult path, and since they made the choice, they have to bear the corresponding consequences."
"Alright, everyone, don't interrupt. The story gets even more exciting from here on out."
Gently waving his folding fan, Li Chengqian continued, "Jingtian and the others have reunited with Longkui."
"At this time, everyone had used up their immortal talismans, and the three of them were captured by the Heavenly Demon Emperor's subordinates."
"As he was about to leave the Demon-Locking Tower that had imprisoned him for three hundred years, the Heavenly Demon Emperor decided to play a good trick on Long Kui."
"During her time in the Demon Locking Tower, Long Kui always insisted that her brother was a great hero."
"So the Heavenly Demon Emperor wanted Long Kui to say that her brother was a good-for-nothing, but Long Kui refused to comply even at the cost of her life. Today, she came up with a plan."
"Jing Tian made a bet with the Heavenly Demon Emperor: if he could withstand ten moves from the Heavenly Demon Emperor, the Heavenly Demon Emperor would loudly proclaim that Jing Tian was not a coward."
As Li Chengqian's story unfolds, we hear the Heavenly Demon Emperor repeatedly change his mind.
Everyone clenched their teeth, wishing they could eat its flesh and drink its blood.
Every time Jing Tian was defeated, everyone felt a pang of anxiety.
Finally, everyone breathed a sigh of relief after Xu Changqing returned to Mount Shu and the Demon-Locking Tower was sealed.
"Mr. Li's definition of the Legend of Sword and Fairy novels as Xianxia is indeed reasonable."
"Jing Tianmian (De Ma De) did not back down in the face of such a powerful enemy as the Heavenly Demon Emperor. Even if it meant his death, he was unwilling to lose his integrity."
"In the end, Jing Tian could have killed the Heavenly Demon Emperor, but he didn't. He truly deserves the demeanor of a great hero."
Everyone was excitedly discussing it. Li Chengqian glanced down and then a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Laugh!
Laugh a little longer, and soon a knife will pierce your heart.
Outside the main hall of Shu Mountain, Xu Changqing and Zi Xuan knelt for a long time without getting up.
"Xu Changqing and Zixuan had tears in their eyes, and their hearts were breaking as if they were being torn apart."
Everyone:? ? ?
"Mr. Li, wasn't the Demon-Sealing Tower already dealt with?"
"Yes!"
"The Demon-Sealing Tower has indeed been dealt with, but Qing'er has lost the Water Spirit Orb. Do you think Qing'er can still live?"
""
I urge you to be kind. If you dare to arrange things like this, I'll hang myself at your doorstep in the middle of the night.
This Legend of Sword and Fairy story is full of swordplay!
Chapter 350 Average Levels: Zhang San and Li Si, Only a Martial King Can Break Through
Everyone was watching Li Chengqian with bated breath, hoping that Mr. Li would show some kindness today.
Don't create an ending where everything is a knife.
Under everyone's watchful eyes, Li Chengqian slowly put down his teacup.
He smacked his lips and said, "Is Qing'er alive or dead? And how will the great calamity of heaven and earth unfold?"
"To find out what happens next, please read Chapter 396 (Part 89) 60."
