The Eastern Dragon Goddess

First Meeting

"Sir, are you seriously participating in the spring games?" Jingmi was worried, when she found out that Xu Lian was attending the spring match.

"Yes I'm serious, I can't just stay idle in this pavilion, otherwise they will all oppress us more arbitrarily" Xu Lian replied.

"But what if someone wants to harm you, princess?" Jingmi felt suspicious, why was Xu Lian allowed to attend this match? there must be something threatening Xu Lian.

"Already Jingmi, you take it easy don't worry about me! now I can take care of myself and you. Now that I am going to train in the backyard, you better keep outside the pavilions and no one will be allowed to enter my pavilion" Xu Lian told Jingmi.

"Alright" Jingmi replied and left Xu Lian alone.

Xu Lian stood up from his seat, he walked towards the backyard of his blue rose pavilion which was at the very end of the instant. The courtyard was not as wide as the other royal family's pavilions courtyard was only about 5 times the meter, but it was enough for Xu Lian to practice.

Xu Lian sat under one of the trees in his courtyard, he took a book from his robe and opened the page 'Eastern Sword Dance : Peacock Goddess'.

"I must quickly master the entire eastern sword dance style" Xu Lian told himself.

Xu Lian got up from his seat and took out a broken wooden branch from his tree to serve as his sword. Xu Lian began to concentrate his thoughts, slowly he started to play the wood as his sword with his book guide.

Xu Lian began to spin with the wood as his sword was directly overhead, not stopping there he began to attack in all directions like he was in the enemy's siege.

"Did anyone notice earlier" Xu Lian thought.

Xu Lian stopped his practice and his eyes focused to the point of a large tree outside the palace walls right behind his pavilions. Xu Lian could see that there was someone on the branch of the tree, someone wearing a black robe and wearing a mask that looked like the face of a demon.

"Why can the woman feel our presence, even though the swordsman who is at the level of the fire lion bones alone is impossible to detect our existence" said Pete, in the mind of Zhang Xiuhuan.

"The dance is so beautiful" Zhang Xiuhuan praised Xu Lian, as only this time he saw a dance combined with a sword.

"Stupid..why are you staring back at him!! you want the whole palace to know where we are?" Pete became annoyed that Zhang Xiuhuan did not answer his question and instead was busy looking at women. Pete finally shouted in Zhang Xiuhuan's mind.

"XIUXIU FALLS IN LOVE WITH GADENSS ITUU WHOOOHOOO" Zhang Xiuhuan covered his ears when he heard the strange singing from Pete.

"GIRLS ARE POOR BECAUSE XIUXIU LIKES HIM BHUAAHHHH"

Xiuxiu is the nickname of Zhang Xiuhuan of Pete.

"Be quiet you stupid devil!! you're making my head really hurt" Zhang Xiuhuan shouted.

"Ah apparently you, what is Jingmi here?" xu Lian asked nervously.

"My princess has prepared warm water for your bath princess because the day is getting dark" Jingmi said.

"Alright" Xu Lian occasionally looked towards the big tree, not the appearance of that person that made Xu Lian always pay attention to him but the behavior of that person who acted like he was fighting with himself. But Xu Lian did not need to be vigilant as the person did not give off a murderous aura to him.

"Sir, what are you looking at?" Jingmi was astonished by Xu Lian's behavior, which always glanced outside the wall.

"Ahh I'm not looking at anything, we should go back into the pavilion" Xu Lian walked up to the tree he was sitting on and picked up his book lying on the ground. Xu Lian and Jingmi enter the pavilion unbeknownst to Zhang Xiuhuan, who is busy arguing with Pete.

"WHOOOO XIUXIU TELLAHHH.." cried Pete hanging.

"Shut up! I want to see her for a second, Ehhhhh where is she? why did he disappear?" Zhang Xiuhuan felt indignant because Pete he lost the girl.

"Bhuaahahha Xiuxiu lost his girl" Pete laughed at Zhang Xiuhuan's fate.

"Based on you demon, I'll beat you up"

Bugh...

Zhang Xiuhuan smacked his own head and fell from the top of a tree.

"Bhuaaa swordsman 'Demon King Mask' fell from the top of a tree because he hit his own head bhuahhhaahhh"

"Meimei why are you helping that useless kid to join the spring game" Xu Yong asked in surprise to Xu Jiao.

"Yes right, you are the one who really dislikes the child" Xu Li said.

"I let him follow this match does not mean I defend him but I want to see him insulted by the entire kingdom and the entire sect of the white sect, not just from this kingdom alone" xu Jiao said with a smile on her face.

"Well you're Meimei's bad boy" Xu Yong and Xu Li never thought of this, but they still supported Xu Jiao's plan because they also disliked Xu Lian who was even their own younger brother, whereas Xu Jiao was only their half-brother.
