Reborn as a Sickly Child: The Emperor's Beloved

Chapter 109: Reception Banquet 4

Helian Fu looked at Murong Yao in the center and said jokingly, "If the eldest prince is unwilling, just come down. This prince also wants some grain seeds. Why don't you let me do it?" This imperial concubine who left the country must have some abilities, otherwise she would not dare to provoke Murong Yao like this. He was a little curious.

"Yes, Prince, I also want this opportunity. How about you give it to me!" Zhongli Chuan also looked at Murong Yao and said.

Murong Yao turned cold and looked at Xiao Jingzhan and Shen Yanyan and said, "Then let's do as the Imperial Concubine says. If there is any offense later, please forgive me!" He wanted to see what this woman was up to. She dared to fight with him like a little chicken. The people of Liguo rushed to ask for humiliation, so don't blame his men for being ruthless.

"Since we are having a duel, we need weapons. I will choose the sword, and I will have someone prepare whatever weapon the eldest prince wants to use." Shen Yanyan chose the sword that she was good at. It was not allowed to bring weapons into the palace. Except for the imperial guards in the palace, no one else was allowed to bring weapons, not even princes from other countries.

As for the offense, haha! We will know who offended whom later.

Xiao Jingzhan said that although this guy is powerful, he is still a little weaker than Xiao Jingzhan. Her martial arts are on par with Xiao Jingzhan's, and her internal strength is even slightly better than his, not to mention the sword skills taught to her by her master. Even a person like Lengxue can't stand any good in her hands. She still has some confidence in dealing with Murong Yao.

"I also choose a sword!" Murong Yao said to Shen Yanyan. He was used to using a knife, but a mere concubine was not worth his effort.

Xiao Jingzhan looked at Zheng Jing beside him and said, "Bring the sword over here."

Upon hearing this, Zheng Jing quickly came to His Majesty with two swords in his hands and bowed slightly.

Shen Yanyan took the sword and threw it into Murong Yao's hand steadily.

Everyone in the audience who knew martial arts was secretly shocked, especially Helian Fu, who looked at Shen Yanyan with a little more seriousness in his eyes. This inner strength was mellow and clean. The imperial concubine of Li Kingdom really had some skills.

Murong Yao felt the slight numbing feeling in his hand and his eyes darkened. He had underestimated his enemy. This woman was very difficult to deal with.

Shen Yanyan drew out her sword, holding the sharp blade in her hand, and slowly walked down the platform and walked towards the center of the platform.

She was dressed in a purple robe with fluttering sleeves and jingling pearls and jade. She was clearly graceful and dignified, but at this moment she seemed to be looking down on the world.

Xiao Jingzhan looked at the sparkling Shen Yanyan, feeling honored and filled with pride.

Helian Fu looked at the imperial concubine like this, with a strange and profound look in his eyes.

Murong Yao looked at Shen Yanyan who was slowly walking towards him, with a bit more fanaticism in his eyes. It was the first time he had seen such a woman. She was very good and very interesting.

Zhongli Chuan and the ministers in the audience looked at Shen Yanyan with disbelief in their eyes. She was just a woman, but her martial arts skills were not weak.

Shen Yanyan ignored the gazes around her, walked straight to Murong Yao, and said with a smile: "Prince, let's start!"

She had to deal with this man and break these people's traditional concepts. She was a woman, but she was no worse than them, and could even be better than them.

Women are never weaker than men.

Murong Yao put away his disdainful expression, nodded, and took it seriously.

The two stood on the high platform used by the dancers to perform, facing each other with swords in hand.

Murong Yao was tall and muscular, with a look of majesty and confidence in his eyes. Shen Yanyan was lithe, smiling, with a sword in her hand flashing with cold light, and was no less powerful than a man.

After looking at each other, they attacked at the same time. Murong Yao's swordsmanship was fierce, and each move contained great power, trying to defeat the woman with overwhelming advantage. This attack was very consistent with his muscular body.

However, Shen Yanyan was no pushover. She was flexible and agile, and not as strong as him, but fighting was not just about strength, especially in the hands of people like them who could kill with one move, strength was not as real as skill.

With her extraordinary sword skills and agility, she nimbly dodged the man's attacks and fought back with clever sword techniques, making it impossible for Murong Yao to succeed.

Her swordsmanship was as smooth as flowing water, and every attack was aimed at the man's vital points accurately. Her sword flashed a dazzling cold light under the night light, as if it was integrated with her. Murong Yao had been wandering on the battlefield for many years, and the sword in his hand was not easy to deal with. Shen Yanyan's attacks were swift, but he blocked them one by one. But he didn't dare to relax in his heart. This woman's moves were fatal. If it were an ordinary person, she would kill one with one sword.

Shen Yanyan sighed secretly, she was indeed amazing as she was worthy of being able to fight against Xiao Jing on the battlefield. He actually resolved all of her moves one by one.

In that case, don't blame her for using her trump card.

The corners of Shen Yanyan's mouth curled up, her eyes instantly turned cold, and her sword moves were so fast that Murong Yao found it difficult to defend.

Gradually he felt the pressure, his breathing became rapid, and beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

Helian Fu looked at the woman on the stage with her sleeves fluttering and her men attacking swiftly, his eyes showing a bit of fanaticism, it was really interesting, she was the first one who could force Murong Yao to this point in a short time, the royal concubine of Li Kingdom was really a treasure, he then cast his eyes towards the Emperor Li who was sitting at the top, with a hint of jealousy in his eyes, he was lucky to find such a beauty.

Xiao Jingzhan looked at Shen Yanyan with eyes full of pride and surprise. He always knew that she was good at martial arts, but he had never seen her in action. When he saw her today, he was really amazed. Her sword skills were deadly, swift and agile, making it difficult to resist. Coupled with her rich internal strength, even if she went on stage himself, he would not be able to escape.

She is no worse than me.

Even many people in this palace are not as good as her. He really picked up a treasure, she always brings him many surprises.

Murong Yao gritted his teeth and continued to launch a fierce attack. It had been a long time since he had encountered such a strong opponent. His attack was powerful and strength was supreme. He wanted to absolutely overwhelm her with strength, but the woman was always able to defuse his offensive skillfully. The two swords crossed each other, making a crisp collision sound, and the scene was very intense.

Sparks flew from the collision of swords, and there was also fire in the eyes of the two men, both of whom had a sense of mutual respect. A good opponent is worthy of respect.

Murong Yao's eyes were full of admiration, and all the disdain he had for her at the beginning was gone.

The fierce battle on the stage made the audience in the audience excited. Shen Yanyan's eyes focused, and she suddenly found the opponent's weakness. She stabbed with her sword without hesitation. The man had no time to dodge and was about to be stabbed in the shoulder by the woman's sword. Shen Yanyan turned her sword and put the sword on his neck in front of everyone's astonished eyes.

The woman did not continue to attack. She put away her sword and looked at the man quietly. The man also raised his head and looked at the woman, his eyes full of admiration and unwillingness. He knew that he had met a strong opponent, a woman who was no worse than himself.

But I still feel unwilling to give in. Failure today does not mean I will fail in the future.

Very good, Imperial Concubine, Shen Yanyan, he will remember her!
