If there is no accident…
When saying this, Immortal Lingyue paused for a moment, then her gaze looked towards the sword flat below, and then continued：
“If there is no accident, this person should be that Lin Qingnu, another clone after Lin Qinggu, the head of Taihao Sect, took over the corpse.”
Hearing this, Xu Taiping looked in the direction of Immortal Lingyue’s gaze with a look of surprise on his face.
Then he saw that a young man in a green shirt, with white hair and a slender figure, was slowly walking towards the empty seat below the sword flat.
And even though it was so far away, the pressure on the green-shirted and white-haired young man still slapped on Xu Taiping wave after wave like that of the waves.
Soon, not only Xu Taiping and Immortal Lingyue, but also the cultivators watch the battle on the stands were awakened by the terrifying pressure on the young man.
Then, a cultivator exclaimed：
“It’s him, it’s Lin Qingnu, Lin Qingnu of Taihao Sect！”
The appearance of Lin Qingnu first attracted the attention of the cultivators on the stands and pulled it back from the spirit mirror.
At the same time, many cultivators because they could not resist the pressure on Lin Qingnu, fainted directly.
For this reason, Jiufu had to open the protective barrier set up on the stands for the first time before the competition even started.
In order to weaken the influence of the pressure on Lin Qingnu on the cultivators of Western Zhou.
At the same time, in the spirit mirror on Xu Taiping’s table, the voice of a disciple named “Ye Feiyu” from the Taihao Sect rang out, as if showing off：
“Little Martial Uncle Qingnu still can’t freely control his own authority and can only seal 70% of his own authority. I hope you all will forgive me.”
As soon as these words came out, the cultivators on the viewing platform in Western Zhou were suddenly in an uproar.
Because if what Ye Feiyu said was true, and 30% of Lin Qingnu’s pressure was so terrifying then his true strength should be very terrifying.
”At least for now, the strength of this Lin Qingnu is not inferior to that of Amon and Cui Tiegui in that sword-asking.”
The Lingyue Fairy also commented like this.
After hearing this, Xu Taiping frowned and said：
”Senior Amon’s luck is really not very good.”
The Lingyue Fairy also smiled helplessly, and then thought thoughtfully：
”The most passive thing for Amon now is that his understanding of this Lin Qingnu is almost zero.”
”And this Lin Qingnu is exactly the opposite.”
”In the situation where the combat power of the two is similar, this is extremely disadvantageous for Amon.”
Xu Taiping nodded in agreement.
And just as the two were talking, in the sky above the Sword Flat, the voice of Elder Zhou from Tianzhu Peak rang out again –
”The time has come. Please ask the sword cultivators to come to the stage with the Sword-asking Order！”
As soon as the voice fell, accompanied by the sounds of breaking through the air, the thirty sword-questioning cultivators sitting on the seats below the sword flat flew up to the high platform of the sword flat like that flowing light.
However, among these thirty cultivators, the ones who attracted the most attention from the crowd were still Amon and Lin Qingnu.
“Boom！ …”
Almost at the same time when the thirty sword-questioning cultivators ascended the platform, the huge black shadow of the Sword Champion List suddenly spread out above the sword flat.
The names of the thirty sword-questioning cultivators appeared on the Sword Champion List one by one.
Immediately after, Elder Zhou of Tianzhu Peak, in the midst of the noisy discussions in the stands of Western Zhou, raised his head and cupped his hands towards the Sword Champion List and said respectfully：
“With the True Martial Great Emperor above, I respectfully invite the Sword Champion List to select the first sword-questioning cultivator.”
As soon as the voice fell, golden mists rose up from the bodies of the thirty sword cultivators standing on the edge of the huge sword flat one after another.
Immediately, these golden mists shot towards the Sword Champion List one after another.
Not long after, these golden mists began to converge into gilt characters on the Sword Champion List.
However, when these words were completely revealed, Xu Taiping in the stand was stunned for a moment and said in surprise “The first one to ask the sword is actually Senior Sister Linglong.”
The name of the sword-questioning cultivator that appeared on the Sword Champion List was none other than Zhao Linglong of the Green Profound Sect.
However, when the cultivators on the spectator stands of Western Zhou saw this name, they all let out disappointed sighs in unison.
After the verbal battle between the True Martial Heavenly loose cultivators and the sect disciples just now, what everyone was most looking forward to at the moment was still the sword-questioning between Amon and Lin Qingnu.
Of course, even without the verbal battle and bet in the spirit mirror, this sword-questioning between Amon and Lin Qingnu was still the most eye-catching in this competition of the Heavenly Sin Group.
The next moment, only the voice of Elder Zhou of Tianzhu Peak was heard, loudly announcing：
“In the Heavenly Sin Group, the first sword-questioning, the person asking the sword is Zhao Linglong of the Green Profound Sect！”
After hearing Elder Zhou’s shout, Fairy Lingyue, who was lying on the chair, smiled relaxedly and said：
“It’s good that little Linglong is the first to ask the sword. At least she can pick a cultivator with a weaker cultivation base to warm up first.”
Regarding this sword-questioning, she had actually discussed it with Zhao Linglong.
At that time, she had given such advice to Zhao Linglong.
However, Xu Taiping shook his head worriedly and said：
“My senior sister often does things unexpectedly. No one knows how she will choose until the last moment.”
After hearing what Xu Taiping said, Fairy Lingyue suddenly sat up straight and frowned and said：
“Come to think of it, when we were discussing this competition yesterday, your senior sister Linglong asked me a very strange question.”
Xu Taiping immediately asked：
“What question？”
Zhao Linglong replied：
“She asked me, if she challenged Lin Qingnu, what would be her chances of winning.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping’s heart tightened for no reason.
He suddenly recalled the conversation he had with Zhao Linglong before she left.
Beside him, Bai Yu, however, waved his hand and said with an expression of “you are worrying unnecessarily”：
“Impossible. No matter how stupid Sister Linglong is, she wouldn’t actively challenge Lin Qingnu.”
Just at this moment, the voice of the mountain-guardian elder of Tianzhu Peak sounded——
“Zhao Linglong, you can choose one of these twenty-nine people as your opponent for the sword challenge.”
Upon hearing this, Xu Taiping and the others in the room all fell silent their eyes fixed firmly on Zhao Linglong on the sword platform.
Zhao Linglong, who had already walked to the center of the sword platform, first thanked Elder Zhou, and then looked up and cupped her hands towards the Sword Ranking that was rolling like waves in the wind and said：
“With the True Martial Great Emperor as witness, Zhao Linglong of the Qingxuan Sect, today…”
When she said this, Zhao Linglong took a deep breath, turned her head and swept a glance around the west side of the sword platform, her gaze fixed on one person, and then said loudly and with extremely firm tone:
“True Martial Azure Mysterious Sect’s Zhao Linglong, today, challenges Lin Qingnu of the Extreme Nether Heaven Taihao Sect with a sword！”
As soon as these words were spoken, the teacup held in Xu Taiping’s hand shattered with a “bang”.
Then only heard him murmur with an incredulous expression on his face：
“Senior Sister, clearly there are twenty-nine people for her to choose from, why does she challenge Lin Qingnu with a sword？”
