In another inn's room, the attendant reported respectfully: "Miss, I've been following them and found that they're staying at Yue Lai Inn. At noon, they gathered in a room and talked about something, probably related to their next match."
The Lanzhou water in front of him said slowly: "Let you go check their background, and you bring back such a little useless intelligence." There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his voice.
The attendant said, "Miss, I feel that the woman named Blue Rabbit has a very deep inner power. I don't dare to get too close." Lan Shui heard this and suddenly became angry, raising her voice: "Can't even defeat a woman? Have I been raising you for nothing all these years? I don't believe that Blue Rabbit is as formidable as you say!" The attendant wanted to explain, "Miss, she..." but was interrupted by Lan Shui's impatient tone: "Alright, alright, just go down first."
The attendant saw the situation and didn't say anything more, quietly retreating. At this time, a man walked in from outside the door with a smile on his face and asked: "Who bullied our Lan Shui again? Tell your brother about it, and your brother will help you vent!" As soon as Lan Shui saw that the person was Bai Zhen, her expression changed to being somewhat spoiled and said: "It's still that Blue Rabbit, Brother, I've been the best since childhood, how can I tolerate that Blue Rabbit surpassing me?"
"I must find out their identity and background, I want to let them know that Lan Shui is the best." As he spoke, Lan Shui's eyes showed a hint of resentment, jealousy and unwillingness, which made Bai Zhen's heart skip a beat. He said: "Lan Shui, you wanting to be strong is not something I oppose, but you mustn't do anything that harms others or yourself, if Master finds out, he will be furious."
Lan Shui smiled with a spring breeze-like smile on his face: "Of course, I won't, Brother Shi, rest assured!" Bai Zhen let out a sigh of relief and laughed: "Good that you won't, then take a rest first, I won't disturb you." Lan Shui hastily nodded and saw Bai Zhen off.
Bai Zhen's heart was filled with some worry, earlier when he saw Lan Shui's eyes... even himself was a bit frightened, he had never seen such eyes from Lan Shui before, hopefully that girl wouldn't do something stupid. After resting for two hours, everyone arrived at the San Tai Ge again on time, this time it was still the women's competition, the rules were the same as Blue Rabbit and others in the morning, because there were too many participants, so they were divided into two groups, this time another group of contestants drew Wen.
Nekomata and the others looked at the notice on the wall, after reading it, Shirokage couldn't help but complain: "What's this? First, they divide us into two groups of men and women, and then they let the last few winning teams have a showdown. Isn't this just messing with us?" Dindan also dissatisfiedly complained: "Exactly! I thought that if Blue Rabbit won, we would have already won half of it, but now there's another twist, geez."
Lan Tu also slightly furrowed his brow, the three-stage competition no matter how it changed, would always revolve around Wu Lai Bi. It seemed that the match was not as simple as they thought. Hong Mao said: "Since we don't have a match today, let's stay and watch the game?" Han Tian agreed, saying: "I agree, this way we can also learn some techniques from other players."
Dingdang and Xiao Li also nodded in agreement, and the crowd passed through the crowd to the waiting area for contestants, where they found five seats. To say that the treatment of these contestants is better than that of ordinary people, their seats are spacious with a good view, just right to see every move on stage clearly. On stage, the judge announced loudly: "The competition begins!" The stage suddenly became windy and cloudy, no need to say, two masters were exchanging moves. Just as Blue Rabbit was watching intently, a voice interrupted her train of thought: "Blue Rabbit." Blue Rabbit turned around to see Lan Shui standing in front of her. To say that Lan Shui is also a beautiful woman with a good appearance, a slight smile attracted the attention of many spectators.
However, Blue Rabbit's appearance is even more beautiful and stunning. Compared to Blue Rabbit, Lan Shui's beauty is dazzling and eye-catching, while Blue Rabbit is ethereal and elegant, touching people's hearts.
The two locked eyes for a moment, and finally Lan Shui was the first to look away. She sat down beside Blue Rabbit and said, "Your performance today was brilliant, I concede defeat." Blue Rabbit smiled and said, "Thank you." Lan Shui asked again, "That painting reminded me of some people, have you heard of them?" Blue Rabbit replied, "Who might that be?" Lan Shui said, "Naturally, it's the famous Seven Heroes. I wonder if Blue Rabbit's painting is about them or not." Blue Rabbit's smile slightly froze, and he immediately understood that Lan Shui had come to probe their secrets. However, his smile remained unchanged, still calm and composed as he said, "Whether it is or isn't, what does it matter who they originally were? A clever woman like Lan Shui probably guessed it a long time ago."
Lan Shui felt a little displeased in her heart, this was an ambiguous answer. She wanted to speak again, but under Lan Tuo's clear and cold gaze, she felt a tightness in her chest and a sense of inexplicable pressure. In her heart, she felt even more unhappy, that she would actually lose to the person in front of her. However, on the surface, she remained calm and unruffled, unable to reveal any ripples. Lan Shui knew that staying here would not yield anything, so she stood up and said: "I'll take my leave first and rest." Lan Tuo smiled lightly and replied: "Take your leave."
As Lan Shui's figure disappeared into the distance, Blue Rabbit's gaze became profound. Why was she so interested in them? Did she have an ulterior motive... Rainbow Cat, who had been watching the stage with her eyes fixed on it, had been paying attention to the conversation between Blue Rabbit and Lan Shui, and whispered: "There are many doubts about this matter, be careful in the future." Blue Rabbit nodded slightly, her gaze falling on the stage, but she felt a faint sense of unease in her heart.
She didn't know what to ask, but she always felt that Lan Shui's gaze was a bit strange, not like doubt, but rather... hostility.
