The result of this sword show was no surprise, Yan Hui defeated Zhou Lang.

After winning, facing the cheers from the audience, the woman was not very happy and hurriedly returned to her home.

The draw ceremony for the fifth round will take a few days, and it will be necessary to wait until all the competitions in the fourth round are completed.

Liu Chen, who was also promoted to the fifth round, saw that the senior sister was having something on her mind, so she asked, "Elder Sister Hui, are you worried about Chen Jin?"

When entering the fifth round, as the number of people decreases sharply, the chances of being drawn will naturally double.

What Liu Chen couldn't understand was that even if Yan Hui really faced off against Chen Jin, based on the comparison of the cultivation strength of both sides, Yan Hui would surely win, so what would there be to worry about?

Yan Hui's eyes flashed and he murmured, "You don't know, I was fooled..."

"Fooled? Fooled of what?"

Liu Chen is confused.

Yan Hui said no more.

In fact, she felt regretful, regretting not taking action when Chen Jin first returned to the mountain.

At that time, she had some means that she could use. It's not that she directly killed Chen Jin. The price and risks involved would be too great, making it difficult to achieve.

The main reason is that Chen Jin has been living in seclusion since he returned to the mountain. He only has some contacts with Huang Mengliang and his wife and rarely goes anywhere else, let alone go down the mountain.

Therefore, Yan Hui couldn't find a chance to start.

Looking back now, Chen Jin must have been at his weakest at that time.

It's just that Yan Hui was frightened by the sudden appearance of Chen Jin. He was walking on thin ice and didn't dare to take any action for fear of provoking the inspection of the elders.

This gave Chen Jin a good chance to recuperate and recover step by step.

Yan Hui was originally thinking that it was just over a month since Sword Competition, so what could Chen Jin do if he recovered?

As long as she goes all the way on Sword Competition, gets a good ranking, and then becomes favored by Upper Court.

At that time, dealing with Chen Jin will be like crushing an ant to death.

However, when Chen Jin signed up to participate in Sword Competition, various variables continued to occur round after round, and today the opponent's strange spellcasting while watching the match live...

This made Yan Hui feel an extraordinary pressure.

Under the pressure, he even developed a sense of fear.

So I regretted that I was indecisive and let the tiger go back to the mountain, which led to one wrong step and one wrong step.

Although Xiujia's mind and will are much firmer than ordinary people's, once there is a flaw, the impact will be even greater.

Therefore, we have to go to the world of mortals to experience it, read all the people's hearts, and taste all the joys and sorrows, in order to sharpen our character.

Yan Hui's character is certainly not bad, cruel and poisonous enough. She never thinks that she has done anything wrong, so she does not feel guilty.

She was just worried about failure and worried that Chen Jin still had some powerful tricks hidden in him.

Such worrying emotions do not come out all at once, but are accumulated along the way.

All kinds of accidents, all kinds of exceptions, all kinds of variables that happened to Chen Jin...

So, now that things have happened, what else can't happen?

Yan Hui feels like he is going crazy!

"Elder Sister Hui, what's wrong with you?"

Liu Chen saw her face getting worse and worse, and asked with concern.

"You don't understand, so don't bother me again!"

Yan Hui yelled violently.

Liu Chen was stunned. He had never seen such an attitude as Yan Hui, and it felt strange to him inexplicably.

After yelling, Yan Hui quickly reacted and said apologetically, "Younger Brother Chen, there are some things I can't tell you clearly. It's not my fault to get angry at you. Can you please forgive me?"

Listening to her pitiful tone, Liu Chen's mind suddenly became confused again, and he decided that senior sister's worries must be related to Chen Jin.

The culprit is none other than Chen Jin.

In order to celebrate Chen Jin's successful promotion, Ye Tong cooked a pot of pheasant chicken soup with phoenix tails, steamed an ice spring mullet, and several side dishes, which were very generous.

Huang Mengliang originally thought about inviting Zhao Qianye to have a drink with her, but after second thoughts, she gave up.

Not only to avoid suspicion, but also with the other party's temperament, he definitely won't come.

Let's wait until there is a chance.

Chen Jin naturally did not refuse the warm invitation. After all, eating a full meal of spiritual food is beneficial to the body.

And getting together with friends is also a pleasure and can cultivate your temperament.

"Haha, this ice spring mullet melts in your mouth and is very delicious. Speaking of which, I haven't eaten it in a long time."

Chen Jin was eating fish and started to comment.

Huang Mengliang was stunned and stared at him in trance.

Chen Jin asked, "What's wrong?"

Huang Mengliang clapped his hands. "Chen Jin, Junior Brother Chen, do you know that since you came back to the mountains, I have never seen you smiling so happily."

"Really?"

Chen Jin said, "I didn't seem to smile much before, right?"

Huang Mengliang nodded. "You really don't like to smile. You always have a straight face and a cold face, as if someone else owes you a lot of money."

Chen Jin smiled slightly, "It seems that I should smile more in the future."

After a pause, he joked, "My current face is probably a bit scary when I smile."

Between life and death, there is great terror, great realization, and great change.

Huang Mengliang didn't expect that. He only thought that Chen Jin made it to the fifth round. He felt better and smiled more.

You know, before this, who would have thought that it could break into the fifth round?

When Huang Mengliang learned that he had signed up for this year's Sword Competition, he was still worried. He was worried that Chen Jin would suffer a lot of cynicism when he stood on the stage. He was even more worried about what kind of setback it would be if he couldn't make it through the first round?

It's easier to go up the mountain than it is to go down the mountain. Even though Chen Jin never talks about it, Huang Mengliang can feel it.

Who would have thought that Chen Jin would come all the way, unexpectedly smoothly.

Among the four rounds, only the third round drew the sword, but it was done with ease and without many twists and turns.

Look at Chen Jin's calm demeanor. Did he come prepared and confident?

Or is it a good time, blessed by fortune?

For a while, Huang Mengliang was difficult to distinguish clearly.

No matter what, this is a good thing.

Chen Jin Being able to stand in this position now can be regarded as a success. No matter who is drawn in the fifth round of draws, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, there will be no regrets.

Moreover, given his age, he is actually still very young for a cultivator. As long as he regains his confidence and chooses the right path of cultivation, there is no doubt that he will make a comeback.

There is much to look forward to.

After dinner, I put on some spiritual tea and spiritual cakes and sipped tea against the moon.

It can be seen that Mr. and Mrs. Huang Mengliang are really particular about their quality of life, which is also a major reason why they have been cultivating for many years and cannot save much money.

After a while, Ye Tong took out a sword and placed it in front of Chen Jin.

Chen Jin recognized it at a glance. It was the Qingling magic sword he bought last time. "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

Ye Tong said softly, "Junior Brother Chen, your opponent in the fifth round must be a master. In this case, how can you not have a good sword in your hand? After I got this sword, I haven't officially refined it yet, so I just gave it to you for use."
