Before the others from Yaqing Pavilion could get angry, Qi Yao raised his hand and said, "Ten thousand taels, Meiyiyuan."

Yuwen Qingzhou: "Ten thousand taels."

Nan Ze: “Ten thousand taels.”

The audience members were breathing fast. Oh my god! Did they catch up?

The mother from Yaqing Pavilion glanced at the mother from Chunmanlou and the mother from Huayuelou, and both of them looked unhappy.

Who knew that Guiyin Pavilion was so difficult to defeat, and they actually got the upper hand of the nobleman, Master Nan Ze.

But now that I have boarded the Yaqing Pavilion's pirate ship, it would be a bit unwilling to admit defeat now.

The two men gritted their teeth and hinted at the reward they had arranged for Toga in the crowd.

It was three against one, and the bounty for both sides was very close, which made the crowd excited.

I always felt like I was listening to an ambush from all sides.

Yuwen Qingzhou was a little annoyed. When would he be able to get the result after adding tens of thousands together?

"Thirty thousand, Meiyiyuan."

Everyone suffocated again.

The wealthy men who were helping the three beauty parlors of Yaqing Pavilion all shook their heads and withdrew from the competition.

Can't compare, can't compare.

Nan Ze raised his eyes and glanced at Yuwen Qingzhou: You are so impatient, you shouted that the silver was too high and scared everyone away, right?

Because of this reward money, only a small portion will be left over to next year, and the rest will be given to the beauty shop that wins first place.

He was thinking of attracting more people, and when the prize pool was fattened up, he would give it to Miss Qu.

Because of Yuwen Qingzhou's arrogance and his attitude of looking down on money, he scared away other supporters. In the end, the first prize naturally fell to Guiyin Pavilion, which was disguised as Meiyiyuan.

And everyone knows who Cang Zhao, Yuwen Qingzhou, General Yan and Master Nan Ze are here for.

Therefore, this time, the title of the most beautiful woman in the world fell on Qu Xinyue meaninglessly.

"Congratulations." Cang Zhao looked at Qu Xinyue tenderly. He was referring to the fact that Qu Xinyue had cleared her name of slavery.

This is also one of their reasons for making Qu Xinyue win.

The person representing the government came to the stage and cancelled Qu Xinyue's status as a slave and changed her household registration to a good one.

The girls from all the beauty parlors present looked at Qu Xinyue with envy. Unless the girls entered the beauty parlor voluntarily, most of them were of lowly birth.

No matter how much money you earn, you are still the lowest of the low, and your future children will have no chance of having a career in politics.

Therefore, many girls want to change their lowly status throughout their lives.

Warm applause broke out in the audience.

"Bam—"

Suddenly, something unexpected happened!

An explosion was heard and smoke filled the air, choking everyone and causing them to cough.

Several nimble figures appeared from the sky, kidnapped a person and left quickly before anyone could react.

Qi Yao was the first to notice something was wrong. He waved his hands to fan away the smoke and tried to get closer to Qu Xinyue.

But as soon as I approached the place where Qu Xinyue had just stood, how could I see the beautiful figure in my mind?

Faintly, he saw a figure passing by in front of him. He chased it a few steps and saw Qu Xinyue with her eyes closed, being carried limply on the shoulders of a man in black.

Qi Yao immediately chased after him with bloodshot eyes.

When the retreating group found that he was chasing them closely, they immediately pulled out their daggers and stabbed him fiercely in perfect harmony.

They cooperated well and their moves were fierce.

However, Qi Yao was still seriously injured and after several fights, two people were seriously injured. There was no sign of Qu Xinyue.

The smoke in front of him gradually dissipated, and Yuwen Qingzhou immediately looked for Qu Xinyue.

But he found that not only Qu Xinyue was missing, but even Qi Yao was nowhere to be found.

Thinking of the vague sounds of fighting he had just heard, his face became gloomy and his heart sank.

Nan Ze: "Where is Miss Qu?" he asked anxiously.

Yuwen Qingzhou: "Qi Yao went after him."

As he was talking, Qi Yao came back with a dark face.

When Nan Ze and others saw Qi Yao’s chilly look, they couldn’t help but feel a pang of pain in their hearts.

Cang Zhao grabbed Qi Yao's arm and asked anxiously, "Has Miss Qu been taken away?"

Nan Ze pushed Cang Zhao who was blocking him away and said, "Come on, you haven't figured out a lot of things yet." Then, he asked Qi Yao with dark eyes, "Who kidnapped Miss Qu?"

Cang Zhao looked down upon Nan Ze, who was always with a group of playboys. Moreover, Qu Xinyue was suddenly kidnapped, and he was very angry.

After being pushed and hurt by Nan Ze, his eyes immediately flashed with flames of anger as he stared at Nan Ze.

"Okay, now the most important thing is to figure out who took Yueyue away. Stop making trouble." Yuwen Qingzhou said in a cold voice.

Cang Zhao's eyes trembled slightly, and he finally restrained the outburst in his heart, but his lips were still tightly pursed, and he kept a distance from Nan Ze.

Nan Ze also knew what was more important and suppressed his inner anxiety.

Because reason told him that if he wanted to find Qu Xinyue as soon as possible, the most efficient way would be to work together.

Qi Yao tried hard to recall the information of those people who had just kidnapped Qu Xinyue.

"Like a gangster, with tricky martial arts skills, good at teamwork, the dagger has a blood groove, a barb, and is made of fine steel..."

The more I recall, the more trivial clues I find.

However, the results of their inference made them feel cold.

"Cloud Shadow Palace!"

"It is said that they are a gang that has only risen in the past five years."

"The Palace Master of Yunying has superb martial arts skills, wears a golden mask all year round, has an erratic personality, and his whereabouts are erratic."

"The people of Yunying Palace are loyal to their master. They are good at assassination and can do both good and evil things. No one has found the location of their Yunying Palace."

……

Several people put together the information they knew, but the answers they got were not satisfactory.

"Oh my goddaughter!" Mother Rong was shocked and worried after listening to their analysis. Finally, she was too excited, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted.

Qi Yao held Mother Rong in one hand and handed her to the people from Guiyin Pavilion before speaking with a serious face.

"As long as it has appeared, there will always be traces. I will send people to the north to look for clues."

Yuwen Qingzhou glanced at Qi Yao and said simply, "Then I will be responsible for the south."

Nan Ze: "The east belongs to me."

Cang Zhao: "Then I'll go west and we'll contact you by carrier pigeon."

A few people nodded and left in a hurry.

……

Qu Xinyue woke up with a staggering sound, and her appetite was suppressed, causing waves of nausea.

She groaned and weakly patted the back of the man who was carrying her all the way.

Noticing that Qu Xinyue had woken up, the person carrying her paused and shouted in surprise: "The most beautiful lady has woken up."

The other men in black who were running together stopped, and when Qu Xinyue was put on the ground and leaning against the tree trunk, they surrounded her at the same time.

Qu Xinyue finally suppressed the nausea in her stomach, raised her head weakly, hid the sharpness in her eyes, pretended to be harmless and weak, and asked.

"Who are you? Why did you bring me here?"

Several masked men in black surrounded her, whispering to each other.

"You know what, she's really pretty, worthy of being the most beautiful woman."

"She is soft and delicate, easy to push down, has the best talent in the world, and is the most beautiful woman in Kyoto. She should be the woman that the master wants, right?"

"That should be it. We have traveled all over Qi State and only this one seems to meet the Palace Master's requirements."
