Kill someone?

Killing is normal!

If the rules are not enough, violence will naturally come to pass.

When traveling in the world, there are always enemies of life and death.

But why do you want me to kill you?

Li Yan pretended to be difficult and said, "With the skills of the seniors, I'm afraid there is no need for the juniors to take action."

This Zhang XiaoShan is not a good thing.

If we don't understand the reason, Li Yan will not take responsibility for it at will.

"Huh! Stop being so naughty!"

Zhang XiaoShan snorted coldly, shook his head and said, "I want you to do it, of course there is a reason. Don't worry, killing that bastard will definitely benefit you."

Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, "Senior, you might as well talk about it."

Zhang XiaoShan looked outside the tent and whispered, "To tell you the truth, this arena has changed."

"Originally, several families were fighting. The first was to help the disciples become famous, and the second was to find a job as a teacher in the royal palace and build a good relationship with the future Prince of Wu Prefecture."

"But with those 50 places, the problem is huge."

"The people of the Yan Clan were the first to not follow the rules. Knowing that the chances of winning were slim, they invited foreign aid. I heard that he was a powerful Cangzhou Baji master who also knew martial arts..."

"Subsequently, Raft Sect and the Five Elements family followed suit, and Acrobatic Arts Sect also invited senior experts from the sect. In short, it was a mess."

"It doesn't matter if they do these fancy things. I'll do whatever I want, but someone invited my enemy."

Li Yan was surprised, "Is there anyone in the Ezhou world who dares to quarrel with seniors?"

Zhang XiaoShan stared with dead eyes, and said with a gloomy expression, "There are many people who are more powerful than me, but this person is different. He is a scum in Xiangxi who eats Ge Nian."

"His name is Yang Yun, nicknamed Flower Snake, Xiang Prefecture Snake Sect. He is sinister and despicable. He makes a career out of murdering people. If he encounters a woman while killing someone, he will definitely be raped and tortured."

"One of my disciples was harmed by him."

When the old man said this, he could not hide his eyes murderous intent, gritted his teeth and said, "Both the imperial court and I, True Martial Palace, have issued a reward."

"But this person knows that he has many enemies. He is usually very cautious and hides in various places in disguise. This time he somehow received Raft Sect's money and came to fight."

Hearing that he wanted to kill such a person, Li Yan wondered, "What's the matter? Senior, do you have any scruples about taking action against such a scum?"

"I've been fooled!"

Zhang XiaoShan gritted his teeth and said, "Because this arena is special, an old guy suggested two days ago that no matter who comes this time, the grievances in the world can only be put aside temporarily."

"I didn't pay attention at the time, but I didn't expect it to be a trap. Even if I break my promise and take action, that old guy Dong Su will definitely stop me."

"That's it." Li Yan suddenly understood.

Dong Su was another Pellet Strength master who was in the E Prefecture Merchant Guild lobby at that time. He was short and strong, with a bald head and black robe. He was practicing Monk Fist, and he was quite senior among Gelaohui.

Li Yan I even inquired about it afterward.

When this old man was young, he also had a bad temper. He and Zhang XiaoShan had some problems. They spent half of their lives trying to undermine each other. Although they didn't do anything directly, they both wanted each other to die.

Whenever you get a chance, you should always take advantage of it.

As for the other old man with gray hair and a cane, he is an old man in the Confucian sect. He not only teaches and educates people, but he is also the elder of Yu Fist in Ezhou, and he is highly respected.

Dong Su obviously just wants to embarrass Zhang XiaoShan.

If you take action, you will not keep your word, and you will be blocked. When the time comes, the person will also run away, and Zhang XiaoShan will be furious to death.

Thinking of this, Li Yan asked, "Since Raft Sect invites Flowery Snake Yang Yun, I'm afraid it's not a bad idea, right?"

Zhang XiaoShan didn't hide anything, and said directly, "That thief practices Seven Step Snake Fist, Peak of Hidden Strength, and with the Snake Sect Poison Gu secret method, he is fierce and difficult to deal with."

"At that time, you had a quarrel with Shi Chen, the leader of the Raft Sect. That person was narrow-minded and would definitely take the opportunity to be cruel to you."

"Other people don't know, but I know that you can definitely kill that lewd snake."

Li Yan was confused after hearing this. "After all, he is a member of the Snake Cult..."

Zhang XiaoShan waved his hand impatiently, "You are not even afraid of the Ghost Cult, but you are afraid of the Snake Cult. Tell me, what conditions do you want?"

Li Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, "It's easy to say, the junior is honing his boxing skills and would like to ask the senior for some guidance."

Zhang XiaoShan was stunned for a moment, then became happy, "Hahaha... Even my disciples and grandsons don't want to ask me for advice. You brought this on yourself. After the ring, come to the martial arts studio to find me."

"No need, now!"

Li Yan said, taking off the Severing Dust Blade, Thunder Fire Pill, Soul Severing Sleeve Blade and other utensils on his body, and handed them to Wang Dao Xuan on the side.

Zhang XiaoShan frowned, "I'm going to fight soon, and I have to fight for five days in a row. Can you bear the distraction at this time?"

Li Yan's eyes were calm, he slowly took up his boxing stance, and said in a deep voice, "This time I'm going to fight, I just want to find someone to feed me, I'm afraid of a bird!"

"Okay!"

Zhang XiaoShan laughed and threw the big smoking pole to the disciples aside, "Go, block the tent and guard the door."

"Yes, Advisor!"

Several disciples immediately stepped forward, took out straw mats to block the tent, and sent several people to guard it.

Although True Martial Palace is not very popular in Wuchang and there are not many Xuanmen monks, the power of lay disciples in the world is not weak.

Several Martial Worlds and escort agencies, who wanted people and money, jointly occupied several tents, and the place was spacious.

The tables and chairs in the tent were removed and it immediately became empty.

There were also many Wudang lay disciples who came to watch the fun. They all gathered outside the tent with evil smiles on their faces, as if they were waiting to see Li Yan in trouble.

Zhang Zu Ye They know best what virtues they have.

As for Wang Dao Xuan, he smiled slightly and backed away holding his weapon.

He knew very well that Li Yan's journey was not easy. Many things were learned through life and death struggles, and he rarely met seniors who could give guidance.

After all, Chang'an City's Lady Fan is old and his skills are not very high, so he can only give guidance based on boxing theory.

But this Zhang XiaoShan in front of me is different.

The opportunity is really rare.

In the tent, Zhang XiaoShan also had a pair of dead fish eyes open, stroking his beard lightly, his eyes full of joking, "Come on, come on, show off your boxing skills, you can meet me first."

"Okay!"

Li Yan didn't show any anger and just stepped out.

It's rare to encounter such a master's attack. How could he hold back? Hidden Strength exploded under his feet, using the footwork of shrinking to an inch.

The Wudang lay disciples who were watching the battle felt their eyes flash as Li Yan arrived in front of Zhang XiaoShan.

The distance is just right, just an arm's length.

Li Yan has grown taller from last year to now, and his wingspan is longer than that of Zhang XiaoShan, so he can hit the ball long and far.

His shoulders shook, and his left and right arms were like windlass. The wind howled and slapped Zhang XiaoShan on the forehead one after another.

"Pigua?"

The old man moved his body to the left and right, easily dodging, and at the same time said, "Draping Needs to Break the Gate, no matter how strong your palm is, what's the point of not hitting someone?"

His mouth was sarcastic, and his feet were also non-stop, changing from left to right, very similar to Gangbu, and at the same time, his body was like willow leaves blowing in the wind.

The wind was howling, and Li Yan had hit seven or eight consecutive palms.

However, the old man in front of him was like a leaf being blown by the wind of his palm, always one step ahead and unable to hit it at all.

Li Yan is not surprised to see this.

Zhang XiaoShan practices <Eight Trigrams Willow Leaf Cotton Palm>.

This is the advanced Wudang Kung Fu, which is good at winning people with footwork. It is the so-called "moving without leaving the feet to change, and standing still will make you fall on the ground."

This footwork looks like Gang Step, but actually it comes from Eight Trigrams Palm. It consists of Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui. There are only half a step between advance and retreat, and there are many changes.

Of course, Li Yan also has a way to deal with it.

Red Fist himself is good at body skills, and with his practice of <North Emperor Swift Travel Technique>, he has incorporated the risk-taking and situation-taking methods into it. In terms of transformation, it is no less impressive and has even greater potential.

The reason for forcing it is to watch the opponent's footwork.

This kind of opportunity to experience face to face is really rare. After all, in a life-and-death fight, the enemy will not leave any space.

After feeling it for a while, Li Yan's feet also changed.

Zhang XiaoShan's body technique is "only half a step forward and backward".

As for Li Yan, Hidden Strength exploded continuously under his feet. Also using the power of Bagua, Gan San connected and Kun Liu broke, just blocking the opponent's body. With a shake of his arm, he slapped the opponent's chest directly.

The "Gua" in Piguaquan was originally called "Gua", which uses the Bagua as the five elements to defeat the enemy with fists and palms.

This time, Zhang XiaoShan was unable to avoid it.

He suddenly stopped and clapped his hands.

The characteristic of "Eight Trigrams Willow Leaf Cotton Palm" is that it blooms when it lands, and hits people when it stops.

This palm seemed soft, but Li Yan felt a huge force coming in continuously, forcing him to take two steps back before standing still.

"Hey, the boy really has a lot of tricks up his sleeve!"

Zhang XiaoShan stared with dead eyes and nodded with satisfaction.

Li Yan looked up and down, narrowed his eyes and said, "Senior, Martial Power is so big, could this be 'Integrated Strength'?"

"You guessed it right."

Zhang XiaoShan slowly raised his hand and moved his foot at the same time, "The so-called 'Integrated Strength' is rooted in the feet, originates from the legs, dominates the waist, and takes shape from the fingers."

"This energy is not a turbid force or a clumsy force. It is hard and soft combined with careful exploration. It combines all the energies into one body and is indestructible!"

After saying that, he suddenly pressed forward with his palm.

It seemed to be stuck in the void, but there was a sound of wind, blowing the tent and rattling.

The Wudang disciples watching the battle all had their eyes widened and their faces were filled with excitement.

Zhang XiaoShan introduced <Eight Trigrams Willow Leaf Cotton Palm>, so he was taking this opportunity to give guidance to his disciples.

Li Yan turned to look at the tent, his eyes became solemn, "Is this Splitting Palm?"

Zhang XiaoShan is not a Daoist monk. I didn't expect that he could do this with his simple Martial Arts.

"Shit Splitting Palm!"

Zhang XiaoShan scolded, "That's the palm power that only Firm Strength can develop. You haven't learned to walk yet, but you want to run? Come again!"

Li Yan didn't waste any time. He immediately stepped forward, executed chops and long strikes, and combined with Hong Fist's close-quarter attacks and thirty-six rows of hands to fight Zhang XiaoShan.

He slashed with the magic metal with his right palm, and after Zhang XiaoShan avoided it, he followed with Red Fist "Painting Hanging on the Wall".

The two boxing techniques have almost become one.

However, in this short connecting moment, Zhang XiaoShan had already stepped out, his body flying like a willow leaf, and he patted it casually.

There was a series of crackling sounds on the opponent's body.

Li Yan was hit in the chest, spinning and flying out. A Leap of the Falcon stood in mid-air, touched his painful chest, and bared his teeth and said, "Nine Section Strength?"

Eight Trigrams Palm The identity of the person Cheng San is divided into nine sections.

The head is the tip section, the waist is the middle section, and the lower abdomen is the root section;

The hand is the tip section, the elbow is the middle section, and the shoulder is the root section;

The foot is the tip section, the knee is the middle section, and the hip is the root section.

For ordinary warriors, if they can link up the three sections, they will be admitted.

And Zhang XiaoShan just now, the nine-section linkage is "Nine Section Strength", combined with "Integrated Strength", it is simply a mess.

And this time, Li Yan's pride was completely shattered.

These Martial Arts seniors have been immersed in boxing all their lives. They can use their strength to form elixirs, and their control over the body is far beyond his understanding.

And the tricks are also astonishingly wonderful.

If it was just Martial Arts, he would have been beaten to death several times just now.

Zhang XiaoShan, who was on the opposite side, frowned and shook his head, "Red Fist combined with Red Fist might work, but you are disorganized and your training is a complete mess!"

Li Yan handed over his hands respectfully, "Senior, please give me some advice."

Zhang XiaoShan's face also became serious, he put his hands behind his hands and stroked his beard and said, "Martial arts in the world all have their own merits, but they reach the same goal through different paths."

"In ancient times, people fought with ferocious beasts, and Martial Arts was born for the sole purpose of killing, which is the summary of life and death."

"Nowadays, there are thousands of martial arts, which are called both paths and shackles. If you want to integrate the two kinds of boxing, you must first forget about boxing, break and then stand up, and break away from the boxing principles of the predecessors!"

Li Yan frowned, "How to do it?"

"God!"

Zhang XiaoShan said in a deep voice, "Remember, fists can connect the gods, and the gods can gather together to keep the form from being chaotic. Integrated Strength unites into one and returns to the Dantian."

"How can we achieve a peerless magic weapon if everything is broken?"

"Come again!"

After that, the two of them fought together again.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Li Yan was beaten away time and time again.

Fortunately, Zhang XiaoShan had a profound control over Martial Power, which only knocked him away without damaging his internal organs.

Even so, Li Yan was beaten so hard that his whole body ached.

The Wudang lay disciples who were watching the battle were grinning.

They Advisor are just like adults bullying children. They used to play like this, but now they are getting worse.

And Li Yan was also a little dizzy after being beaten.

Everyone is very angry, not to mention being teased like this. His stubborn temper got worse, he fell down again and again, got up again, and got into a fight with Zhang XiaoShan.

The expressions of the surrounding Wudang disciples also changed from sneers to intolerance, until they looked serious and even a little shocked.

This Li Yan is as if it can't be beaten to death.

What's more important is that when the opponent is angry and attacks continuously, the gaps between the two boxing techniques become less and less.

Of course, Zhang XiaoShan is also deliberately letting off steam. He only attacks when he senses the flaws in his moves.

And the number of times Li Yan was knocked out became less and less.

Finally, after knocking Li Yan away again, Zhang XiaoShan suddenly shouted loudly, "Do you remember this feeling?"

Li Yan was stunned for a moment, stood there and pondered for a long time, then nodded seriously and said, "Remember, thank you, senior."

Zhang XiaoShan nodded, "It's okay, not too stupid."

Sure enough, the expert's guidance made a big difference.

Li Yan Although my whole body ached, my heart was filled with excitement. The previous feeling of disharmony had disappeared.

It was like a layer of separation had been pierced. Although the boxing skills had not been completely integrated, he had cleared the fog and knew how to go forward.

Thinking of this, Li Yan quickly raised his hands and said, "Junior has learned the thunder method. If you want to develop this boxing into martial arts, please ask the senior for advice."

"Oh?"

Zhang XiaoShan also became interested, "Let's have some fun."

Li Yan nodded, made a fist and made a fist. Suddenly, lightning flashed on his fist, and he got into a posture, ready to attack.

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Zhang XiaoShan waved his hands quickly and cursed, "Yu Longzi, that old drunkard, taught Heavenly Thunder Demon Subduing Hammer to you?"

Li Yan nodded and said, "I just learned it."

Zhang XiaoShan spat, "Laozi has not cultivated Firm Strength. How can I withstand your blow? Just save your strength and beat it. If you encounter that flower snake, hit it as you like!"

Seeing Li Yan still talking, Zhang XiaoShan shook his head impatiently and said, "Martial arts and boxing are the same. Boxing requires Integrated Strength, and martial arts also requires spiritual communication."

"To achieve this, it's just a matter of proficiency in the moves. That's it for today. My hands are hurting from the beatings..."

Toot--!

Suddenly, a horn sounded outside.

Zhang XiaoShan looked up and looked outside the tent, "Prince of Wu Prefecture is here, the competition will start soon."

As he spoke, his expression became serious, "Boy, this time it's 'Punitive Sacrifice'. Don't hold back your hands after the challenge!"
