Do You Have the Final Say on the Right and Wrong Path?
These people speak beautifully, but their actions are quite dirty. On the one hand, they look down on the so-called sword cultivators, but once a female swordsman with strength far exceeding theirs appears, they will unite without hesitation to suppress her.
Qiao Xiaoqiao was actually not unfamiliar with this situation. She had seen similar things countless times on Earth and was no longer surprised.
Of course, Xiao Tingyu and the others didn't think there was anything wrong with what they did. It was certainly shameful to surround and kill a woman, but if a woman overpowered them and won the sword championship, it would be even more embarrassing.
I don’t know if it’s because Xiao Tingyu has a good reputation, or if the remaining swordsmen have also realized the seriousness of the problem, but as expected, everyone except Qiao Xiaoqiao has left the field and surrounded Gu Hanshuang.

Xiao Tingyu was a son of an aristocratic family, and he would always find a moral high ground before speaking or acting, so he said, "Miss Gu, we are not bullying you, it's just that your swordsmanship is not righteous. If you win the sword championship, I'm afraid it will mislead many sword practitioners and lead them astray."
"Right path or wrong path?" Gu Hanshuang said calmly, "Do you have the final say?"

Xiao Tingyu was choked for a moment, and immediately said to Qiao Xiaoqiao: "Miss Qiao, don't you want to persuade your friend?"
"Why should I persuade her?" Qiao Xiaoqiao showed an expression of watching a good show, "You should be thankful that I didn't help her."

"In that case, don't blame us for being rude." The reason why Xiao Tingyu asked Qiao Xiaoqiao questions was actually to confirm whether she would end up like this. Now that he got the answer, he naturally stopped asking questions.
Yun Qilie said with some dissatisfaction: "What nonsense! She is just a woman. Just kill her. What's there to say?"

Others had the same thought.
Gu Hanshuang stood in the center of the arena with an expressionless face and a long sword in hand. Surrounding him stood several sword masters including Xiao Tingyu.
"Go!" Yun Qilie raised his hand and summoned a red long sword, then took the lead in launching an attack.

This movement caused a surge of flames, which surrounded Gu Hanshuang in the blink of an eye.
The others no longer hesitated, each holding a sword, and launched a killing move towards Gu Hanshuang together.
"Please look at this rain of fire." Xiao Tingyu chanted a sentence before drawing his sword, then put his index and middle fingers together and pointed towards the sky.
Suddenly, a black cloud flew in the sky, and then a rain of fire began to fall.

The flames are like silk threads, continuous and endless.
"What a pity! That woman's talent in kendo is truly amazing." Jian Jiuming said with a sigh in the stands.
Tie Qingfeng said with hatred: "What a pity! If one's mind is not right, the sword will be evil. This woman should be killed as soon as possible to prevent future troubles."

Jian Jiuming looked at Tie Qingfeng and couldn't help but laugh. He knew that the other party was very compassionate to his son, so he didn't say anything more. He turned his head to look at Wu Jiu, who had a blank expression, and asked, "Wu Qingfeng, what do you think?"
Wu Jiu hadn't received Qiao Xiaoqiao's order yet, so he couldn't act on his own. He was just in a bad mood, so he said sarcastically, "The sword competition is not bad, but the men in Qingjianzhou are not broad-minded enough. If it was in Lanjing, the sword champion would have given way to that girl long ago. How could he bring such humiliation upon himself?"

"Master Wu, what do you mean by that?" Tie Qingfeng frowned, very unhappy with Wu Jiu's words, "Do you think that woman can win?"
Wu Jiu raised the corner of his mouth slightly and said calmly: "Just keep reading and you'll know."
On the stage, Xiao Tingyu and others attacked as fiercely as tigers, but there was an expression of disbelief on their faces.
Generally speaking, even a cultivator in the fusion stage would not be able to remain indifferent under the non-stop attacks of these people, unless he was a dead person.

But Gu Hanshuang did not die and was unharmed. He just raised his sword slightly and held it across his head to block the attacks of these people.
Neither Yun Qilie's tongue of fire nor Xiao Tingyu's rain of fire could touch Gu Hanshuang, let alone other swordsmen.

"What is your level of cultivation?" Xiao Tingyu was the first to notice something was wrong, because even the Sword God of that time could not achieve this level with swordsmanship alone.
Gu Hanshuang did not answer this question, but just said: "It's about time."

After saying that, he suddenly raised his sword and swung it, instantly sweeping Xiao Tingyu and the others off the stage. Those seemingly fierce attacks instantly disappeared into thin air, as if they had never existed.
This scene was beyond the expectations of most of the guests watching the game. This woman actually defeated all the other competitors and stood to the end.

Off the stage, Xiao Tingyu and the others were not seriously injured, but their self-esteem deep in their hearts was crushed.
"Master Jian, can you announce the result now?" Gu Hanshuang stood on the stage, looked up at Jian Jiuming, the master of Zhujian Villa, who was sitting on the main seat, and asked indifferently.

Jian Jiuming and the others just woke up from their dream at this time, but they hesitated for a moment. Did they really want to give the Fire Vein Sword to a woman?
"No, absolutely not!" Tie Qingfeng was the first to object, "How can the position of Sword Master be given to a woman?"
Although Jian Jiuming was somewhat reluctant, he had his own principles in dealing with people, so he said, "According to the rules of the sword meeting, whoever wins in the end will be the sword champion."
"She hasn't won yet!" Tie Qingfeng flatly rejected Jian Jiuming's words, "As long as the contestants don't admit defeat, they can keep fighting."

Jian Jiuming thought so too, so he looked at the remaining swordsmen and said, "If anyone is dissatisfied with Miss Gu, please stand up and challenge her again."
After a long while, no one answered.

They have already fully witnessed Gu Hanshuang's strength. No one has the confidence that they can last a round under her sword. If that's the case, why bother to humiliate themselves?
"Miss Gu's swordsmanship is outstanding. I admire you. I wish you the best of luck in winning the sword championship. We will meet again!" Xiao Tingyu bowed to Gu Hanshuang and then turned away without looking back. The others were too ashamed to stay here any longer and bring shame upon themselves, so they left in a hurry after saying a few polite words.
"Now, Master Tie, do you still have any objections?" Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled faintly, "Or do you want to personally go down and fight with my friend?"
Tie Qingfeng blushed, pointed at Qiao Xiaoqiao and Gu Hanshuang and said, "I think you two are not swordsmen at all, but spies who came here to disrupt the sword meeting. This sword meeting doesn't count!"

"Master Tie, I'm afraid that won't work." Jian Jiuming frowned slightly and reminded, "These two days are the auspicious days for the divine sword to be sharpened. It must not be postponed."
Tie Qingfeng said in a cold voice: "I didn't forbid you to sharpen the sword, I just said that the sword will stop."
"That's why it's not possible." Jian Jiuming explained slowly, "When a divine sword is sharpened, it must choose a master. This is also the rule. Therefore, the sword master must be decided in the next two days, and then let the sword master sharpen the divine sword personally. Only in this way can the divine sword unlock its greatest function, and its essence and spirit will not be damaged."
"So what you mean is that you recognize her as the sword champion this time, and then give her the magic sword?" Tie Qingfeng asked coldly.
Jian Jiuming was much calmer. Even though he was quite unhappy, he would not cheat and deny his words. This went against his principles. "If no one objects, then we must follow the rules."
"I have objections!" Tie Qingfeng shouted loudly, "There is definitely something wrong with this woman. How could a mere woman have such a high level of cultivation? How could she be unscathed in the face of attacks from several sword masters?"
Jian Jiuming sighed and said to Tie Qingfeng, "Although I am also quite surprised, the fact is as we can see, she did win."
"So, there must be something wrong with her." Tie Qingfeng looked extremely serious. He pointed at Qiao Xiaoqiao and said firmly, "And that woman also has a problem."
Qiao Xiaoqiao smiled and asked, "Then Sir Tie, why don't you tell us what our problem is?"
"Not long ago, several strange things happened in Qingjianzhou." Tie Qingfeng did not directly answer Qiao Xiaoqiao's question, but instead talked about something unrelated: "Dozens of people have seen the demon fire passing through the territory, and even people and animals were burned. I sent people to investigate these things and got some feedback. I thought the results of the investigation were nonsense, but now it seems that I was careless."
Jian Jiuming asked in confusion: "Master Tie, what do you want to say?"
"Master Jian, do you still remember the Wanhuoxing Sect?" Tie Qingfeng asked back at this time.
"Of course I remember." Jian Jiuming was stunned for a moment, then continued, "That was the demon sect that appeared on Xianyun Continent ten thousand years ago. It used demon fire as its banner and preyed on the people everywhere. In the Qingjian Province, there was a demon sect envoy who harmed many people. However, this demon sect was eliminated by Piaomiao Xianmen a long time ago, and even their leader, Old Ancestor Yehuo, was annihilated."
"Now that the evil fire has reappeared in the world, the evil cult has been revived." Tie Qingfeng said with a firm face.
When these words were spoken, everyone present was surprised. Of course, Qiao Xiaoqiao and Gu Hanshuang came here for this matter in the first place, so their expressions did not change much.
Back then, the Wanyuan Xinghuo Sect sacrificed human lives to the demonic fire and committed a lot of murder in Qingjianzhou. Even though it had been ten thousand years, people still shuddered at the mere mention of their name.
"The Demon Cult has reappeared. What does that have to do with the Sword Society?" Jian Jiuming asked in confusion. "What does that have to do with them?"
Tie Qingfeng sneered and said, "Is there any need to ask this? I suspect these two women are members of the Demonic Cult. They must have some ulterior motives for participating in the sword meeting this time."
When Qiao Xiaoqiao heard this, she couldn't help but laugh. She and Gu Hanshuang came here to investigate the affairs of the Wanyuan Xinghuo Sect, but they didn't expect that before there was any progress, they were accused of being members of the evil cult.
"After the demon fire reappeared, they happened to appear in Qingjianzhou." Tie Qingfeng continued, "The Fire Vein Divine Sword appeared in this sword meeting, and they happened to participate in the sword meeting. A mere woman has such a terrifying cultivation and swordsmanship, and happened to win the sword championship... How can there be so many coincidences? There can only be one explanation. They came for the Divine Sword. With the support of the Fire Vein Divine Sword, the demon fire in their sect will be more blazing! Jian Jiuming, if you give the Divine Sword to them, you will be a sinner of Qingjianzhou and an accomplice of the Flame Demon Cult!"
The hat was quite big and it really scared Jian Jiuming.
However, the swordsmen present were outraged and began to yell at Qiao Xiaoqiao and Gu Hanshuang.
