Chapter 2799: Chapter 1497: First Befriend Xu Palace, then Feng Family, Accumulate Riches to Meet Fame and Fortune Naturally
 

“`

Thud.

Beibei suddenly opened her eyes, her small frame convulsed twice like a half-dead salted fish in a pot.

Completely… obliterated…

As the last moment of consciousness ended, little Beibei’s eyes closed, and she completely passed out.

Ding!

The dull and color-faded Supreme Emperor Sword spun down and struck into the ground beside her head.

It not only covered her scarred face but also preserved the last dignity of a Sword Deity.

The reflective sword body cast the image of Feng Zhongzui holding the Dao Imparting Mirror, and when Feng Zhongzui could see his own eyes in it, there was no longer any doubt.

He moved the mirror towards Lord Shou, and with all his might, he shouted:

“Won!”

“Lord Shou won!”

Feng Tingchen appeared at the right moment, standing proudly with his hands behind his back in front of the Dao Imparting Mirror, slightly tilting to show a handsome profile and the Crane Sword Ting Chen at his waist as he calmly announced:

“For the first battle for the top spot on the Seven Sword Immortal List, Xu Xiaoshou wins!”

Swish.

With those words, he vanished.

Lord Shou reappeared in the Dao Imparting Mirror.

With rosy lips and pearly teeth, and a face glowing with health, he clad in unspoiled black attire stood in stark contrast to Beibei, who lay on the ground in tatters, her white robe soiled and clothes in shambles—a complete opposite.

It was as if the battle had not affected Lord Shou in the slightest, as natural as eating and drinking.

But…

Heavenly Unravel!

And the Heavenly Unravel Imagery of the Present Gods and Buddhas!

These are the things that consume the heart, spirit, and will of an ancient swordsman the most.

Beibei now lying on the ground was largely due to her Emperor Sword Heavenly Unravel Imagery being brutally dismantled by the Ultimate Giant Imagery.

But another reason was that she had overexerted herself.

On the other hand, Lord Shou…

Not a scratch on him!

As expected of Mei Siren’s student!

Feng Zhongzui knew how to work the stage; he grabbed the Dao Imparting Mirror and rushed forward, excitedly saying while filming up close:

“Lord Shou, my name is Feng Zhongzui, and I’ve heard of your great reputation a long time ago in the Southern Region.”

“Xiao Wanfeng is my friend; he has mentioned you a few times, saying you’re quite powerful… by the way, he should also be in the Southern Region watching you now.” He first established rapport.

Xiao Wanfeng?

Xu Xiaoshou was slightly surprised.

Since Abyss Island, this was the first time he had heard news of this youngster; he had not expected him to go to the Southern Region and even interact with the Feng family member.

But thinking about it…

That guy is also a Sword Maniac, roaming everywhere.

Now that a new list for the Seven Sword Deities had been announced, he would definitely head to the Southern Region for this excitement.

After all, the common understanding was that the battle of the Seven Sword Deities would only take place in the Southern Region—hadn’t Lei Shuangxing also come from the Southern Region just before?

“Lord Shou, everyone is watching you; why don’t you say a few words?” Feng Zhongzui raised the small mirror in his hand with an expectant look.

The camera was right in his face…

This feeling, a bit peculiar yet familiar, was like a “livestream” to the whole world? Xu Xiaoshou put on an innocuous smile and waved:

“Hello everyone, I’m Xu Xiaoshou meow~”

The waving stopped abruptly as Lord Shou’s smile froze.

Every person in front of the Dao Imparting Mirror froze as well, thinking it was an auditory hallucination.

Even Feng Zhongzui, who was within an arm’s reach, got goosebumps from what he heard.

…Meow?

Ancient swordsmen never doubt themselves.

Feng Zhongzui gave “Lord Shou” a skeptical look, his mouth curling into an awkward smile as he uttered:

“Lord Shou, how adorable?”

Sensing the murderous intent forming around him, Feng Zhongzui quickly changed the subject, speaking very quickly:

“The first battle of the Seven Sword Immortals has captured the world’s attention. Lord Shou, you have defeated Sword Deity Bei to take the stage. What do you feel right now?”

Xu Xiaoshou took a deep breath, fiercely warning Greedy the Cat Spirit within him that had calmed down but then came out again to cause trouble, especially in front of the public.

“Heh heh.”

He then put the smile back on, continuing to wave at the mirror:

“Actually, it’s nothing much, I was just a bit lucky and narrowly defeated Beibei by a hair meow…”

The words hung in the air, and he stopped waving again, his expression gradually growing stiff.

“Ah haha.” Feng Zhongzui chuckled awkwardly, his gaze shifting, thinking that “meow” was Lord Shou’s verbal tic, and he joined in:

“Lord Shou, you’re too modest meow, being too modest is insincere meow, how about some honesty meow?”

I’ll meow your head off!

Xu Xiaoshou really wanted to lop off this guy’s head with a sword, his mouth twitching as he warned Greedy the Cat Spirit once again fiercely…

“Honest words?” He glanced back towards Beibei and said, “It’s nothing much.”

Good!

Feng Zhongzui’s eyes lit up.

Not just him, but viewers from every corner of the five regions held their breath at this moment, expecting juicy details.

Who wants to hear nonsense?

What everyone wanted were these explosive details!

Soon, Feng Zhongzui, who loved to stoke the flames, glanced at the family head and resumed his questioning:

“This generation of Seven Sword Immortals has rankings, and as the last-seated among them, Lord Shou, you have defeated Sword Deity Bei, ranked a notch higher.”

“May I ask, do you have any words for the Feng family in the Southern Region, who established the new rankings for the Seven Sword Immortals?”

Feng Tingchen felt a sudden surge of anger at the question, almost drawing the Crane Sword to chop down Feng Zhongzui.

Are you sick?

Aren’t you a member of the Feng family?

Even Xu Xiaoshou paused for a moment, questioning if he truly bore the Feng surname.

“Meow!” Before he could speak, Greedy the Cat Spirit, after taking part in a great battle, excitedly cried out again from within.

Xu Xiaoshou quickly spoke up, trying to overpower the cat’s meow coming from his throat:

“I actually quite recognize the Feng family’s ranking, after all, when I was at Yunlun Mountain Range, I indeed relied on external forces meow…”

Feng Zhongzui winked, tilted his mouth and chuckled, “Lord Shou, don’t hesitate to tell the truth meow?”
