Chapter 1031
"Then I'm really grateful to Grand Duke Hong!"
As soon as Chen Ge heard that Hong Lie had agreed to do so, he immediately turned towards Hong Lie and thanked him.
Originally, Chen Ge thought that Hong Lie would be reluctant, after all, he did not have any relationship with him and had only just met him, but now it seemed that Hong Lie was indeed a quick-witted person.
"Brother Chen is too polite, but I have a request, I hope Brother Chen can meet me!"
Of course things would not be that simple, only to hear then Hong Lie put forward his request.
"Grand Duke Hong, please speak!"
"My request is actually very simple, I hope that if Brother Chen and I were to meet in the next match, I hope that the two of us can have a good competition!"
"Alright, I'll grant your request!"
After hearing this, Chen Ge agreed straight away without even thinking about it.
This request of Hong Lie's was simple, it seemed that Hong Lie just wanted to have a real competition match with himself, then naturally Chen Ge had to meet it.
What's more, this was also what Chen Ge had in mind, he also wanted to be taught the Hong family sword technique and see how powerful it really was.
Soon, the three of them ended the lunch with laughter.
After they finished eating, Hong Lie took Chen Ge and Zhang Zhurazi in the direction of his family's Qi casting workshop.
The Hong Family's Qi Casting Workshop was considered one of the more distinctive buildings in the Xuan Qi Kingdom, with the building looking like a large sword standing on the ground, and inside the large sword was a large Qi casting project.
All the weapons shops and weapons used by everyone in the Xuan Qi Kingdom are produced from the Hong family's Qi casting workshop.
A few minutes later, the three arrived at the Qi casting workshop.
"Wow, it's the first time I've seen the Qi casting workshop so close!"
Looking at the Qi Casting Workshop in front of her, it made Zhang Sakurako's beautiful eyes widen in awe.
The Hong Family's Qi Casting Workshop was not open to everyone, only workers of the workshop and members of the Hong Family were allowed to enter and leave freely, and they had to show proof of their identity.
This was why Zhang Sakurazi had never seen the Qi Casting Workshop so close to her for so long in the Xuanqi Kingdom.
With Hong Lie leading the way, Chen Ge and Zhang Zuozhuo entered the Qi Casting Workshop without a hitch.
Once inside, the two were once again stunned by the image before them. The temperature inside was very high, steam was rising everywhere, and the sound of clanging and clanging echoed throughout the entire Qi casting workshop, with workers working hard everywhere.
It was the first time that Chen Ge had seen such a shocking scene, and now Chen Ge understood how people on Earth in ancient times cast Qi, which was the same as the Hong family's Qi casting workshop.
"Come, Brother Chen, take a look, what do you think?"
Hong Lie asked as he led Chen Ge to look inside.
"Shocking, that's the only word I can use to describe it, Grand Duke Hong, your family's Qi casting workshop is really too spectacular!" Chen Ge really could not help but praise towards Hong Lie.
This praise was from Chen Ge's heart, not just a casual compliment out of politeness.
"Hahahaha, that's nothing, my Hong family's Qi casting workshop can cast thousands of Qi a day, and the quality of each one is extremely good, it can be said that it can cut iron like mud!" Hong Lie boasted with a big smile.
Immediately afterwards, Hong Lie led Chen Ge and Zhang Zuozhu to a place where swords had already been forged, and there were hundreds of them, each of them different in appearance.
"Come on, Brother Chen, you can pick out a suitable one for yourself, and consider it as a gift from me to you!"
Chapter 1032
Hong Lie pointed to the hundreds of swords in front of him and smiled as he proposed to Chen Ge.
Chen Ge looked at the swords in front of him. To be honest, although the swords in front of him were all very good, they were still far worse than he expected, and they were fine for ordinary people, but not for himself.
However, since Hong Lie had said so, Chen Ge couldn't refuse, so he had to choose one at random.
After that, Chen Ge immediately picked them out carefully.
After a few minutes, Chen Ge finally picked out one of the hundreds of swords, which was the best of the hundreds, at least for the time being, as his own weapon.
"This is the one!"
Chen Ge took the sword in his hand and gestured it in front of Hong Lie and Zhang Zuozhu.
"Haha, good, Brother Chen, I hope that on the day we face off, you will use this sword to fight with me!" Hong Lie tilted his head and laughed as he looked at Chen Ge and spoke.
"Good!"
After hearing this, Chen Ge naturally agreed to do so without any comments.
......
In the evening, Chen Ge returned to the dart board with Zhang Sakurazi, and they did not return to the national city today.
Anyway, the cultivation duel did not stipulate that they had to stay in the State City, except that it was safer to stay in the State City, and even if something happened, the State City would take full responsibility.
If something happens outside of the city, then it is none of the city's business and the consequences will be borne by the city itself.
So that was why Gongsun Quan had sent people to deal with Chen Ge outside the State City, because as long as Chen Ge died outside the State City, then even if the Xuanqi Kingdom's Emperor and Empress and Ling Zheng knew that he had done it, there would be no way to hold him responsible.
"Brother Chen, you're back, oops, I haven't seen you for two days, I missed you so much!"
Seeing Chen Ge back, Zhang Yong excitedly greeted him from inside and jumped into Chen Ge's embrace.
Zhang Yong was like a child.
"I say Zhang Yong, you're a big man, why are you acting like a woman, it's only been two days since we've seen each other!" Chen Ge glanced at Zhang Yong and said speechlessly.
"Hey, brother Chen, I just miss you, you're not here and I'm bored at the dartboard every day!" Zhang Yong gave a playful laugh, then immediately looked at Chen Ge and explained.
"Cut it out, if you're bored, just learn to study some simple martial arts, otherwise my master won't be able to protect you all the time in the future!"
Hearing Zhang Yong's words, it immediately made Zhang Sakurazi roll her eyes and reminded Zhang Yong in no good mood.
This was indeed true, how could Chen Ge protect Zhang Yong all the time, it was still necessary for Zhang Yong himself to have the ability to protect himself.
"Eh, this. But you all are not here, who am I going to learn from?"
Zhang Yong froze for a moment before he beamed and complained.
"It's not that simple, I'll just ask my dad to teach you, I'm telling you ah, I used to be taught by my dad!" Zhang Sakurako gave a straightforward solution.
"Yo, Sakurako is back with old brother Chen Ge!"
Speaking of Cao Cao, just as Zhang Sakurako mentioned her father, Zhang Tianzheng, she only saw Zhang Tianzheng walking out of the house to greet her.
"Father!"
Sakurako hurriedly shouted at Zhang Tianzheng, and went up to him to give him a hug.
"Sakurako, how was it? How does it feel to go to a cultivation duel this time?"
Zhang Tianzheng dotingly stroked Zhang Sakurako's head and asked with concern.
Chapter 1033
"Sigh, don't mention it, I lost, I lost to Hong Lie of the Hong Family on the first day of the competition today, but father, you didn't see how powerful my master is, yesterday my master took on Gongsun Quan of the Gongsun Family and defeated Gongsun Quan in one move!" Zhang Sakurako first glanced at her mouth and muttered, then she looked at Zhang Tianzheng again with excitement as she recounted how powerful Chen Ge was.
"Hahahaha, it's alright, you're just going to have fun anyway, if you lose, you lose, we can afford to lose!"
Hearing this, Zhang Tianzheng immediately laughed out loud and joked towards his daughter, Zhang Sakurako.
"By the way, father, I have a request for you!"
Then Zhang Sakurako spoke again towards Zhang Tianzheng.
"What is it?"
Zhang Tianzheng asked curiously.
"Father, you should start teaching Li Yong martial arts from tomorrow!"
Zhang Tianzheng suggested.
"Teach him martial arts?"
Zhang Tianzheng immediately looked at Li Yong in amazement and let out a surprised cry.
This was really something that Zhang Tianzheng had not expected, never imagining that his daughter would ask for this.
"Yes, me and Master don't have time well, so we can only let you teach him!" Zhang Sakurako shrugged her shoulders and explained helplessly.
"Alright, Li Yong, are you willing to learn martial arts from me? Although I'm not as good as old brother Chen Ge, I can still teach you a little bit of fur!"
After a pause, Zhang Tianzheng then looked at Li Yong once again and proposed.
Li Yong hesitated for a few seconds before nodding his head in agreement, "Yes, I'm willing, Chief Bodyguard Zhang, then I'll learn martial arts from you tomorrow, I don't want Brother Chen to always protect me either!"
"Good, that's fine, I'll wake you up tomorrow, if you can't get up by then, don't blame me for not being polite, I'll greet you in advance!" Zhang Tianzheng nodded in satisfaction, and then gave another admonition towards Li Yong.
At this moment, Zhang Sakurako, who was standing on the side, also covered her mouth and snickered, carefully moved to Chen Ge's side and muttered close to Chen Ge's ear, "Master, Li Yong will be in trouble tomorrow, my father is notoriously strict, I was taught a lot of lessons when I was learning martial arts in the past!"
As Chen Ge listened, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise up.
But this left Chen Ge with no comment, since he had to learn it was definitely to learn it properly, Chen Ge also hoped that Li Yong would be able to withstand the torture and test so that he could succeed.
It was not until late at night that Chen Ge and Li Yong went back to their room to prepare for rest.
"Clang clang clang clang!"
However, just at that moment, only to hear the sound of footsteps stomping on tiles coming from the eaves.
Chen Ge instantly opened his eyes, popped up and sat up, listening to the sound on the eaves, and his whole body instantly became alert.
Chen Ge glanced at Li Yong, who had slept like a dead pig and did not move at all, nor did he hear the sound of the eaves.
But Chen Ge knew that there must be danger coming.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Ge immediately rolled over and rushed out of the house from the bed, quickly leaping up to the roof.
"Who are you people? Why are you sneaking in here?"
Leaping onto the roof, only to see that what met Chen Ge's eyes were four men dressed in black, all holding machetes in their hands, looking like they were coming from a bad place.
The four black-clad assassins looked at each other and without any response, they quickly attacked Chen Ge one after another. The speed was extremely fast and their strength was even higher than that of their own disciples.
