Chapter 145 Clues
No matter how tangled the ball of thread is, you have to sort out the ends of it. ——Inscription
"Thank you for giving me that chance!" Fan Nuoxi made a polite gesture to the audience, then flew back to his seat.
"Well done!" Ruochen praised.
"The opponent is too weak. I haven't had enough fun yet." Fan Nuoxi said with regret.
"Uh...are you sure?" The Imperial Master didn't believe it.
"That's the truth." Fan Nuoxi shrugged.
Dongfang Junyan asked with concern, "Are you injured?"
He saw the malicious intentions of her opponent. After the game, he would investigate who dared to bully him so blatantly!
"No, I'm fine!" Fan Nuoxi shook her head.
Since she knew about the conspiracy, how could she give those people an opportunity to take advantage of it?
If she was dealt with by such a small minion, it would be too much of a disrespect to her, Fan Nuoxi!
At this time, Wu Yueshan, who was struggling in pain on the ground, was finally carried out of the venue, and Li Menghan and her opponent Li Shuangyu also stepped onto the stage.
After the pleasantries, Li Shuangyu took the lead in attacking. His moves seemed to be quite fancy, but Li Menghan did not dare to relax.
Because these fancy moves are full of hidden dangers!
Maybe this is the enemy seeking revenge...
After some probing, Li Menghan deliberately exposed her weakness and took the opportunity to knock Li Shuangyu off the stage.
"In the second match, Sun Dazhuang wins!"
Li Menghan returned to her seat in fear. Seeing her sweating and looking a little absent-minded, Fan Nuoxi asked quickly, "Are you okay?"
"I... am fine." As soon as he sat down, Nianbai jumped into Li Menghan's arms and licked her hand comfortingly.
Li Menghan's attention was diverted by the recitation.
The next three games were also quite eye-catching. Except for Tong Xiao who failed, the other two successfully entered the finals.
Seeing the names of these newcomers appear on the spirit screen, the audience couldn't help but talk about it.
"I didn't expect that four dark horses would appear today. It looks like this year's martial arts competition will be much more exciting."
"If you ask me, among the five people today, Chen Fugui is the best fighter. His opponent tried his best but he never suffered any loss!"
"The most important thing is that Wu Yueshan is the one who advanced and has the highest score! I didn't expect that Chen Fugui kicked him down in just a few moves. How powerful is this guy!"
"I think Sun Dazhuang is not bad either! He is challenging the third-ranked player!"
"Now that you mention it, I'm really looking forward to tomorrow's finals!"
Fan Nuoxi and Li Menghan took away their competition rewards amidst everyone's discussion.
When they were about to go back home, Chi Ruxia suddenly opened her fan and blocked the way of Fan Nuoxi and the others.
"My name is Chi Ruxia, and I would like to make friends with Mr. Chen. What do you think?" Chi Ruxia invited warmly.
"Da Zhuang, what do you want to eat today?" Fan Nuoxi pretended not to hear and asked Li Menghan for her opinion.
"I'm fine with anything." Although Li Menghan didn't know what Fan Nuoxi meant by this, she answered truthfully.
"Mr. Chen, can we be friends?" Chi Ruxia looked at Fan Nuoxi eagerly, as if it would be a violation of heaven if Fan Nuoxi did not agree.
"The weather is not very good today. It's not suitable for making friends. Please respect yourself, young lady." Fan Nuoxi refused without even turning her head.
After walking a few steps, a few tactless people came and blocked Fan Nuoxi's way.
"What do you want to do?" Fan Nuoxi glanced at them sharply.
"Mr. Chen, it's like this. We want... want to be friends with you." One of them said hesitantly under pressure.
"Sorry, today is a bit Mercury retrograde and not suitable for making friends. Please go back." Fan Nuoxi refused again.
Hearing Fan Nuoxi's repeated rejections, Ruochen chuckled.
"Didn't you say you wanted to eat beggar's chicken? I'll take you to the restaurant in West City to try it!" Fan Nuoxi pulled Ruochen without saying anything and squeezed out a path from the crowd and left.
Finding that Li Menghan hadn't come yet, Fan Nuoxi complained, "Da Zhuang, did I ignore you so much that you don't want to go with me?"
"Fuguier, don't be angry, isn't it okay for me to come?"
Li Menghan cooperated and quickly followed Fan Nuoxi's pace while holding Nianbai.
Those people returned empty-handed.
Dongfang Junyan and the Imperial Master, who witnessed all this, could not help but be shocked.
"This guy you like is really an interesting person."
"The weather is bad today. Mercury is retrograde today, so it's not suitable for making friends. Only she could think of this!" The Imperial Master laughed.
"Are you done?" Dongfang Junyan said lightly.
He doesn't have time to chat with this unreasonable national master. He still has to investigate those problematic people.
Before the Imperial Master could continue speaking, Dongfang Junyan had already walked away.
"Hey, hey, where are you going? Wait for me!"
……
Inn box.
"There's something wrong with these people today. Have you noticed?" Fan Nuoxi looked at Li Menghan.
"That's true. The Li Shuangyu who fought against me seemed to be trying to kill me on purpose..." Li Menghan still felt a lingering fear when she thought of that man.
"In the past few days, I have found some traces of the people who were chasing you. Don't leave the inn unless necessary."
"it is good."
"By the way, I have some pills here. Take them. I don't want your life, which I saved with great difficulty, to fall into someone else's hands again."
Fan Nuoxi waved his hands, and two bottles of top-grade healing pills and two bottles of top-grade antidotes appeared in front of Li Menghan.
"This is too expensive! I already owe you enough!" Li Menghan evaded.
Although this elixir is tempting, one should not accept gifts without merit. Besides, they just met by chance, so how can they...
"Just take it if I tell you to!"
"How about this, I'll buy it with 200,000 mid-grade spirit stones!" Li Menghan took out a spirit ring containing 200,000 mid-grade spirit stones.
"Okay." Seeing Li Menghan's reaction, Fan Nuoxi believed that he had not chosen the wrong person, so he accepted the spiritual ring.
For Fan Nuoxi, giving the elixir as a gift was not a big deal, but it was enough to test a person's attitude.
You can make friends with this person, but now is not the right time.
Seeing that Fan Nuoxi accepted it, Li Menghan felt relieved and put away the pill.
I don't know how I can repay her kindness...
Ruochen watched the whole process from the side and shook the teacup in his hand, "Aren't you hungry? If you don't eat now, the food will get cold!"
"Okay, stop standing there and eat. We have a tough battle tomorrow!" Fan Nuoxi used the serving chopsticks to pick up a chicken leg and put it in Li Menghan's bowl.
"Oh, okay..." Li Menghan was a little flattered.
After dinner, Li Menghan took the initiative to find Fan Nuoxi, wandering around Fan Nuoxi's door, and was hesitant to knock on the door.
Just when she was about to knock on the door, Fan Nuoxi suddenly appeared behind Li Menghan.
"Are you looking for me?"
"That... is it!" Li Menghan said somewhat embarrassedly.
"Come in and talk!"
Fan Nuoxi pulled Li Menghan into the room.
But Li Menghan kept hesitating, as if she didn't know how to start.
"If there's something wrong, it's okay to say it!"
Fan Nuoxi saw her dilemma.
"Actually...actually I have always known who the people who tried to assassinate me are! They...they were mainly targeting me! It's my...it's my fault that I have implicated you!" Li Menghan said guiltily.
"Those who tried to assassinate me were said to be my mother's enemies. They had been trying to assassinate me for a long time. They killed me to get my things. I didn't expect that because of me, my master was also... hunted down by them. Until now, I have implicated you. I am really sorry!"
"I see. Thank you for telling me this! This matter is now related to me, so I will not stand idly by. Do you know where these people who are chasing you come from?"
Li Menghan recalled, "If I remember correctly, they came from Mingye Pavilion. Mingye Pavilion is a very strange sect in this world. If they want to hunt someone down, they will not stop until the death. If ordinary people want Mingye Pavilion to hunt someone down, they will have to pay a great price. It is said that their people are spread all over the place, and they will take action immediately when they receive an order. But the location of Mingye Pavilion is little known..."
"Besides the people from Mingye Pavilion, are there any others?"
"This... I'm not sure." Li Menghan said truthfully.
