Chapter 1224: Public opinion is boiling
One Finger Peak, a dueling mecca of the Obsidian Dynasty.
At this time, at the peak of the majestic Yizhi Peak, there was a swordsman with two long swords on his back standing on the peak, his expression as indifferent as ice.
This person is none other than the Sun Moon Sword Venerable from Jiuxuanling.
It has been half a month since he declared war on Yi Changqing.
And Yi Changqing still didn't make any moves.
"Obsidian Sword Saint, is it possible that you will still avoid the battle?"
Sun Moon Sword Venerable muttered.
As a swordsman, especially a swordsman with a reputation, he values his reputation very much, and once he receives a challenge from others, whether he accepts it or not, he will at least give an answer.
But Yi Changqing hasn't even shown up so far.
"This Yi Changqing you are talking about is really as powerful as the rumors, but I don't think he even dares to accept my challenge, how strong can he be?" Sun Moon Sword Venerable said indifferently to the air in front of him.
I saw a ripple in the air.
A figure suddenly swept out, and the person was wrapped in a black robe, and the whole person exuded an inexplicable treacherous aura.
It's like an elusive black fog.
"Don't underestimate him, after all, this person is rumored to be able to challenge the entire Red Wind Palace by himself, you better be careful of yourself. The voice of the man wrapped in black robe said hoarsely.
Sun Moon Sword Venerable snorted coldly, "But now he hasn't even seen a shadow, in this way, won't everything you have done be in vain, let's say it first, I won't return the spirit essence to you." ”
"Since the spiritual essence has been given to you, it will naturally not be returned. ”
"That's the best. ”
"Don't worry, now the whole king is talking about this battle between you and the Obsidian Sword Master, but as long as he has the slightest pride as a swordsman, he will not avoid the battle. The black-robed man said confidently.
"It couldn't be better. ”
Time passed, and another ten days passed.
On the peak, the cold wind whistled by.
Sun Moon Sword Venerable's eyebrows were slightly raised, and he looked at the black robe with cold eyes, which seemed to mean that why the Obsidian Sword Saint hadn't come yet......
The black-robed man was also a little uncertain.
"You wait here, I'll go to the royal capital to find out one or two. ”
Sou......
The black-robed man disappeared in place.
When he came to the royal capital, he found that the obsidian sword master was still in retreat, and he had no intention of leaving the gate, which made him frown.
"If this obsidian sword saint is closed for ten or eight years, then won't our plan be in vain? ”
It's not impossible.
If a martial artist retreats, if he wants to break through some key barriers, let alone ten or eight years, even if it is a hundred years and a thousand years, it is possible.
It is easy to afford the retreat.
They can't wait that long to prepare.
"We must create another wave of public opinion to force Yi Changqing to go out of the customs to fight, even if it can't, at least let this person's reputation be discredited. ”
The black-robed warrior thought to himself and began to act.
Soon after, rumors spread in the royal capital.
"I heard that the Obsidian Sword Saint avoided fighting. ”
"How is it possible, how can the Sword Saint be cowardly, this is impossible, you know, it's an Obsidian Sword Saint!!"
"What am I lying to you, the Sword Saint has been staying in the Sword Saint Mansion, and he didn't even dare to show up, the Sun Moon Sword Venerable has been waiting for almost a month at Yizhi Peak alone, but he hasn't even seen the shadow of the Sword Saint. ”
"Tsk, have you heard, the Sword Saint is afraid of the Sun and Moon Sword Venerable, and he doesn't dare to fight, and now he has been hiding in the Sword Saint's Mansion as a turtle with a shrunken head. ”
"Do you know? As soon as the Obsidian Sword Saint saw the Sun Moon Sword Venerable that day, he was almost pressed to his knees by the opponent's sword pressure, so he didn't dare to respond to the challenge of the Sun Moon Sword Venerable, which was too cowardly. ”
"Alas, Obsidian Swordmaster, that's it. ”
Between the rumors, the Sword Saint Mansion was still calm, without the slightest wave, the huge Sword Saint Mansion was empty, only Gu Shaoxiong was sitting under the tree, drinking alone, enjoying himself.
He glanced at the houses that were blocked by sword qi not far away.
"Alas, Brother Yi, if you don't go out again, your reputation will be completely stinky, the four words of Obsidian Sword Saint are about to become third-rate characters, and it's a shame that those people actually came up with such a solution......"
Gu Shaoxiong shook his head and said with emotion.
This group of people is determined to force Yi Changqing to fight.
The Obsidian King in a black and gold robe walked in, and the visitor glanced at the room, and said helplessly: "Sword Saint, hasn't he been out yet?"
"No, not at all. ”
Gu Shaoxiong shook his head and said.
"If this continues, the martial artists of the entire royal capital will doubt the strength of the Obsidian Sword Saint, which will not have a good impact on the Sword Saint. ”
"So what can I do? He doesn't come out. ”
"What the hell is he doing here?"
"Who knows. Gu Shaoxiong pursed his lips, and then said to King Obsidian: "Your Majesty, can't you suppress those public opinions?"
The Obsidian King shook his head and said, "I can't suppress it, the current Obsidian Sword Saint's reputation is so great, and it is not inferior to Lonely, and the decisive battle between such a celebrity and others is a major event that moves the world." ”
"Besides, if you really suppress public opinion, it will only show that the Sword Saint is weak-hearted, which means that the Sword Saint is really afraid of the Sun and Moon Sword Venerable, which is even worse for him, and public opinion is bound to be more violent. ”
Gu Shaoxiong frowned, "It's really Qinghong, the two dynasties of Baixing are targeting Brother Yi? otherwise, who else has this kind of means to guide the public opinion offensive of the entire royal capital in this short period of time." ”
"Who else can there be besides these two forces? I even suspect that the Sun Moon Sword Venerable is just a front, and their real killing moves are behind, otherwise the Sun Moon Sword Venerable alone will not be able to deal with the Sword Saint. ”
"That's right. ”
In the royal capital, public opinion was boiling, and there were more and more unfavorable remarks about Yi Changqing, and even many people gathered outside the Sword Saint's mansion and asked to meet the Sword Saint, all of which were sent away by Gu Shaoxiong.
But that doesn't help.
Some people even proposed to remove Yi Changqing from the title of Sword Saint.
Under the derivation of the mastermind behind the scenes, how majestic the name of Yi Changqing Sword Saint was in the past, how many people are falling into the well now.
Although there is no shortage of supporters among them.
But these people's voices were too small and too small to be of any use.
Time continues to flow in the midst of discussions.
However, Yi Changqing in the Sword Saint Mansion was like thunder, still in retreat, unmoved.
A month and a half after the Sun Moon Sword Venerable declared war, the Sun Moon Sword Venerable on the One Finger Peak finally couldn't bear it anymore, "Is your method useful or not, it's been a few days, and the Sword Saint hasn't come yet." ”
"Wait, if he doesn't come again, this plan will be considered nullified, anyway, this time it has already ruined his reputation, and it is not in vain. ”
"Hmph, then what am I doing here, just come here to blow the cold wind for a month and a half?" Sun Moon Sword Venerable said with a somewhat gloomy face, as if he felt insulted.
"Didn't we give you the spiritual essence?"
"You gave me the spiritual essence so that I came to duel with the Obsidian Sword Saint, but I didn't even see anyone, as a swordsman, I felt as if I was being ignored, and I couldn't swallow this breath. ”
