My Wife is A Sword God

Chapter 416: Suspended Martial Platform

Emperor Ming was holding the martial arts competition to showcase the power of the Great Qian, and naturally, the event had to be widely publicised.

Early the next day, officials sent out people to post notices around the city.

Within an hour, news of the martial arts competition had spread throughout Imperial City.

When a young servant saw the notice, he said, “There was a demon disaster just the night before, and I don’t know how many people suffered. At such a time, with such a martial arts competition, sir, will anyone come to watch?”

Luo Yu, who was dressed in azure robes smiled and said, “Of course there will be people watching, and a lot of them.”

“What? Are the people of the Imperial City not afraid of death? If I had encountered a demon disaster and nearly lost my life, I would definitely stay in my house, never daring to go out,” the young servant, Xiao Bai, said with some trepidation.

He still vividly remembers the scene of a hundred ghosts walking through the night and the arrival of an inexplicable disease, which made him feel uneasy and frightened.

“Who said that staying at home means you can’t witness this unprecedented martial arts competition?” Luo Yu replied.

Xiao Bai was confused, “Sir, what do you mean?”

Before he could fully comprehend, he felt a tremor in the Imperial City and exclaimed, “Earthquake!”

However, in the face of this commotion, the other citizens seemed to know something in advance as they all looked to the sky above the Imperial City.

Curious, Xiao Bai followed their gaze and saw a high platform suspended in the air, covering the sky!

His eyes widened in astonishment, “Sir, what is that?”

Luo Yu smiled and replied, “This is the Suspended Martial Platform mentioned in the notice, the arena for the Great Qian Four Domains Demon Slaying Martial Arts Competition.” 

“In the past, the martial arts competition was always held there on the night of the New Ceremony. As long as you are in the Imperial City, you can see it no matter where you are.”

Xiao Bai opened his mouth in realisation, “I see.”

“Alright, let’s go.” Luo Yu turned around and said.

“Master, where are we going?”

Luo Yu replied, “Although the Suspended Martial Platform can be seen from anywhere, if we find a place nearby with good food and drink, we can eat and watch at the same time. Wouldn’t that be great?”

Xiao Bai said with joy in his face, “Master, will you take me to the Start Seizing Tower?”

Luo Yu inquired, “This is your first time in the Imperial City, and you even know the name of the Start Seizing Tower?”

Xiao Bai looked very proud and said, “Of course, I’ve heard people talking about it. The Start Seizing Tower is the number one restaurant in the Great Qian, and ordinary people can’t even go in even if they want to.”

“Well said. Unfortunately, we’re not going to the Start Seizing Tower this time, but to a new restaurant opened by an old friend. I wonder if this old friend remembers me.” Luo Yu said with a mysterious smile.

The winter night came earlier than usual, and before the Rooster Hour arrived, the sky had already darkened.

The major restaurants in Imperial City have long been overcrowded. As the saying goes, the more the merrier. 

Watching the martial arts competition from the comfort of one’s own home couldn’t compare to being in a restaurant, eating and drinking while enjoying the spectacle with others.

Even the ordinary restaurants are like this, let alone Moonlit Pavilion, which is close to the Suspended Martial Arts Platform and has the reputation in the Imperial City that it is as good as the famous Start Seizing Tower. 

Some people came early just to secure a seat, and after several hours, they didn’t even move their buttocks.

If these people hadn’t kept ordering drinks and food, the restaurant owners and waiters might have had to chase them away.

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Qin Feng and his family arrived at the Moonlit Pavilion. 

As the boss behind the scenes, he had arranged a prime location on the third floor by the window for optimal viewing.

As he walked through the restaurant, he could hear the voices of the commoners discussing.

The topic was mainly about the upcoming martial arts competition, and they were expressing their opinion about which domains Demon Slaying Department will win this time.

The results were the same as what Qin Feng had heard the last time. Except for the Southern Domain, they were optimistic about the other three domains.

This was in line with his expectations, especially since Zhen Tianyi had not displayed his skills in front of everyone that night in Yong’an Street like Ning Zhan and Kong Qiu had done.

Perhaps only a few commoners in the current Imperial City knew that the Southern Domain had sent a divine general this time as well.

While the people in the restaurant were having a passionate discussion, someone suddenly noticed something and shouted, “Look, it’s Physician Qin!”

“What? Physician Qin? Where is he?” Another person started looking around.

“Physician Qin? Who is he?” someone asked in confusion.

A man immediately explained, “Physician Qin, don’t you know? Last night, when the Demon Disaster occured in the Imperial City and brought a plague, the Imperial Physicians in the palace didn’t care about the lives of the people and were helpless against the plague.” 

“At that moment, Physician Qin took action and set up a light formation, and everyone who stood under the light formation was cured of the plague. It was truly miraculous!”

Upon hearing this, others suddenly realised, “So the huge light formation over the Imperial City was created by Physician Qin? No wonder my father’s symptoms improved when that light formation appeared.”

“Come to think of it, my child also received Physician Qin’s grace?”

“Who is Physician Qin? I would like to thank him personally.”

Qin Feng naturally heard these words, but he felt a bit guilty. 

The Clear Profound Formation in Yong’an Street was indeed his creation, but the reason it could cover the entire Imperial City was clearly the means used by the National Teacher of Heavenly Tower.

In an instant, everyone’s eyes turned to the stairs and saw Qin Feng. Each of them wore an expression of gratitude and expressed their thanks.

As he responded, Qin Feng tried to leave, mainly because he felt a bit uncomfortable. 

However, these people were too enthusiastic and crowded the stairs. If it wasn’t for the excellent quality of the restaurant built by the Divine Workshop, there might have been a stampede.

In addition, there were some charming young ladies in the crowd surrounding him, and while they were expressing their gratitude with their mouths, they couldn’t keep their hands from touching him.

At that moment, Li Jianli stepped forward. 

The Qi around her spread, and the bodies of the ordinary people in the restaurant seemed to be frozen, unable to move their hands or speak.

“Let’s go.” Liu Jinali opened her red lips slightly and cast a faint glance at the charming young ladies, as if to declare her sovereignty.

This glance alone caused the girls to break out in a cold sweat.

Qin Feng apologised with a bow and then led his family to the third floor of the restaurant.

Most of the people on this floor are of high status, so naturally they were not as enthusiastic as the common people, and the environment immediately became much quieter.

The Second Brother admired, “Nowadays, Big Brother is loved by so many people.”

Black Charcoal Head and Lan Ningshuang, who were standing next to him, also cast respectful glances when they heard this.

This time, Father and Second Mother did not come. Mainly because of the incident that night, Second Mother is still scared and does not dare to go out casually.

Father also had little interest in the martial arts competition, so he stayed at home to accompany Second Mother.

“Don’t talk about these unnecessary things. The martial arts competition is about to begin. Competitions at the Thirty-Six Star level are extremely rare.”

“Second Brother, pay close attention. If you can understand something, it will greatly benefit your cultivation,” Qin Feng advised.

“I understand, Big Brother,” Qin An nodded solemnly.

Shortly after the group took their seats, a familiar voice sounded behind Qin Feng, “To unexpectedly meet the talented and charming Brother Qin here is truly a pleasant surprise for me.”
