"Is there an ambush?"
Chu Lei's heart moved, and he immediately looked around, but it was quiet and there was no ambush.
So what kind of confidence does this kid have? It's simply incomprehensible.
"Are you alone?" Zhang Lingshan asked.
Chu Lei was shocked, shouldn't it be him who asked this question? He was actually looked down upon.
"Haha! Interesting boy."
Chu Lei laughed loudly and said, "Pan Mingzhong, you Senior Brother want to see you, come out and see you."
As soon as he finished speaking, an old-looking young man walked out from behind a tree in the distance with an indifferent expression on his face.
"Pan Junior Brother."
Zhang Lingshan looked overjoyed. "You came just in time, let's kill this old thief together!"
"Hahaha!" Chu Lei laughed, "You are really... bastard, you are planning a sneak attack!"
The laughter stopped abruptly.
Chu Lei was furious. This kid deliberately pretended to be stupid to make himself laugh, and then used the right opportunity to attack his disabled left leg with a knife. The cruelty of the attack and the sharpness of the knife were beyond expectations.
No wonder he can become Hong Zhengdao's beloved disciple, which makes Pan Mingzhong gnash his teeth in jealousy. He is really capable.
With just one shot, this guy surpassed most Flesh Refining Martial Practitioner.
Unfortunately, he encountered himself.
Dang!
Chu Lei was shocked but not confused. Fine Steel Crutch with his left hand gently raised it and pointed at Zhang Lingshan's throat. If Zhang Lingshan continued to charge, he would definitely put his neck on someone else's walking stick and commit suicide.
'Awesome.'
Zhang Lingshan is full of praise.
This person's strength is not trivial. Perhaps because the opponent has a disabled leg and his strength is relatively weakened, he puts all his moves on technique and never confronts others head-on.
No matter which direction your Red Cloud Saber Art is slashing, the opponent can find a flaw and attack your fatal point with one move, forcing you to change your moves.
After more than ten rounds of this, I still couldn't get close to this person.
"Senior is a Tendon Changing strong man, right? He's a lot of age and bullies a kid like me. Is that okay?"
Zhang Lingshan swished away and smiled sarcastically.
"You boy!"
Chu Lei was so angry that he vomited blood.
He is a powerful Tendon Changing man. He was able to deal with a Flesh Refining boy. Not only was he unable to capture him for a long time, but he was also escaped by the opponent. This was simply a great shame and humiliation.
What kind of kungfu does this kid have? He has a foundation in Hong Zhengdao, but his body skills are completely different from Hong Zhengdao. He can be described as elusive. For an old man like me with a disabled right leg, facing him is like facing his nemesis.
Fortunately, the opponent's attack methods are very simple. They are all Hong Zhengdao's Red Cloud Saber Art's repeated over and over again, with no innovation and no lethality.
No matter how good his body skills are, it's useless if he can't hurt himself.
But I can't hurt him either.
Forget it, let him go.
Chu Lei felt very suffocated from the fight. He didn't want to fight, so he sneered and said, "Xiao Dong xi, get lost. Go back and tell Hong Zhengdao to wash his neck and wait for me."
"Ah? Senior, won't you kill Zhang Lingshan? What should I do?" Pan Mingzhong shouted urgently.
"You?" Chu Lei smiled sarcastically, "What are you going to do to me?"
"Senior, you can't..."
Pan Mingzhong was so anxious that he almost cried. When he saw Zhang Lingshan approaching step by step, he hurriedly changed his words and shouted, "Mountain Senior Apprentice Brother, it's all a misunderstanding."
Seeing Zhang Lingshan expressionless, unmoved.
Pan Mingzhong drew his sword and pointed it at Zhang Lingshan, yelling angrily, "I just wanted to take it easy, what's wrong with me! You are obviously such a genius, why do you still work so hard to practice? Can't you let me do it?"
"Psychopath."
Zhang Lingshan was too lazy to talk nonsense with him, so he just chopped him off with his sword.
Bones.
Heads fell to the ground.
Chu Lei Seeing this clean and sharp knife, his face suddenly changed, and he felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
Because this sword is completely different from the Red Cloud Saber Art that Zhang Lingshan just used. It can be said to be extremely simple, and it is only used to kill people.
If the opponent had just used such a sword technique, could I have blocked it?
In the midst of surprise, Chu Lei saw Zhang Lingshan coming back and said, "The rest of the gang has been dealt with. Senior killed one of my horses, so you can be my sparring partner. It just so happens that I have a lot of martial arts skills that I would like to find someone to teach me. It would be better to hit the sun on a different day."
"You!"
Chu Lei was furious, and with a flick of his right hand, Flying Stone hit Zhang Lingshan. At the same time, he stepped forward, and the stick in his left hand was like a dragon dancing, ding, ding, ding, piercing the acupuncture points all over Zhang Lingshan.
Dang Dang Dang!
The sharp knife in Zhang Lingshan's hand flashed, and Chu Lei's walking stick came forward one by one.
'This boy is so strong!'
Chu Lei was shocked, knowing that he might be in trouble today.
I thought Flesh Refining was just at his mercy, but I didn't expect that the other party was very strong and had good physical skills. With a disability like my own, Tendon Changing, I couldn't run or fight, so how could I play?
"Stop, I surrender! I owe you my life. If you need anything in the future, call me at any time... Bastard, can't you understand what I'm saying? I have a gold hiding place. If you spare me, I'll take you there. Ahhh!"
Chu Lei shouted angrily.
No matter what I said, the other party turned a deaf ear and swung the knife wildly, really treating myself as a whetstone.
He was determined not to let Zhang Lingshan get his wish, but he was unwilling to let him close his eyes and wait for death.
So indecisive.
An hour later.
Chu Lei was lying on the ground, his eyes widened, his face extremely pale, and he died of exhaustion of energy and blood.
Zhang Lingshan wiped the blood off the knife, touched Chu Lei's body, then returned to Jin City, bought a new horse, and went to the place arranged by Wang Dun and others.
To him, this was just a small episode, not even a threat.
Since Red Tiger Righteous Yang Art Entry Level and Mountain Splitting Axe Technique broke through to Greater Accomplishment, his strength has once again been earth-shaking. Not to mention a small disabled Tendon Changing, even Tendon Transformation Realm in his heyday can still win.
Even if he couldn't fight, he could still escape, otherwise he wouldn't dare to ride out of the city without any concealment.
Because when you have the strength and confidence, you can do things without any worries.
"Not only were Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound Technique's Demonization useless in today's battle, but Demon Subduing Saber Technique was also useless. This old man is still too weak."
Zhang Lingshan sighed secretly.
His strength has improved so much, but he has never encountered an evenly matched enemy.
He longs for a battlefield, a battlefield where he can perform to his heart's content.
There are too many eyes in Jin City, making it difficult to use.
It would be great if I could meet that Old Man Yu outside the city again. Tendon Changing is a suitable opponent at his peak. Now, I really want to practice with him.
By the way, it can also help Master Hong solve the problem.
What a pity.
During the next two days of hunting, Old Man Yu was not encountered, and Zhang Lingshan returned disappointed.
Three days later, a big news broke on Outer City.
Hongying Martial Hall Zhao Qing, breakthrough Tendon Changing!
In order to celebrate Zhao Qing's breakthrough Tendon Changing, Hongying Martial Hall held a grand banquet and invited all comrades.
Tendon Changing, the representative has stood at the top of Outer City.
Although compared to the strong Tendon Changing, Tendon Changing just now is nothing. For example, the Chen Hui's Master who was kicked to death by Hong Zhengdao in Dongyang Gathering is the bottom Tendon Changing.
But no matter how low-level Tendon Changing is, he is still a master who can stand alone.
As long as you don't seek death, and you have the support of friends or your own elders as backers, in more than ten years, you can successfully form a force that cannot be underestimated.
Many Tendon Changing peaks grew up like this.
As for Zhao Qing, with the Hongying Martial Hall as his backer, plus his own talent, he broke through Tendon Changing before he was thirty years old, and possesses the martial arts of the Hong Clan Martial Hall, so he has a bright future!
Therefore, regardless of whether they are on good terms with the Hongying Martial Hall themselves or have an ordinary relationship with each other and have no contact with each other, all parties are willing to give Hongying Martial Hall a face at this moment and join in the fun.
"Congratulations."
"Congratulations to the Hongying Martial Hall for adding another strong member Tendon Changing!"
"Brother Zhao Qing, do you still remember me? We had dinner together before."
"Zhao..."
Representatives of forces one after another came forward to congratulate, exchange greetings, and build relationships.
On the table.
Someone whispered, "I heard that Hongying Martial Hall also gave the invitation to the Hong Clan Martial Hall. I wonder if Hong Clan Martial Hall will come."
"Of course no one is coming. Even fools know that Zhao Qing comes from the Hong Clan Martial Hall. This invitation is just disgusting."
One person asked in confusion, "What is the conflict between Zhao Qing and Hong Zhengdao? Why did the relationship change from master and apprentice to the current relationship?"
"When people go to higher places, water flows to lower places. When trees fall down, the monkeys scatter, and when walls fall down, people push them away. This is all human nature." Someone said with a wise look on his face.
Another person said, "Who knows, this is a family matter, let's just watch the fun."
Another person said, "I heard that Hong Zhengdao insisted on forcing Zhao Qing to marry his daughter Hong Wenjuan. Zhao Qing thought Hong Wenjuan was too ugly and refused to do so, so they had a falling out."
"I think Hong Wenjuan is not bad looking and has a dashing appearance. Although she is a bit taller, she is good at giving birth."
"You think it's good, but others still look down on you."
"What did you say?"
The two of them were about to quarrel, and the person next to them quickly made peace. "No matter what, forceful melons are not sweet. Hong Zhengdao This move is still inappropriate."
"I don't care if it's okay or not. I just regret that Hong Clan Martial Hall is not here today, otherwise there will be a good show today, ugh."
Some people looked at the excitement and didn't mind it, shaking their heads and sighing.
The people next to me were speechless.
You just hide in the dark and whisper. If someone Hong Zhengdao hears it, they will kick you to death.
"Today, everyone is invited to come to our Hongying Martial Hall. In addition to witnessing my adopted son Zhao Qing's breakthrough Tendon Transformation Realm, there are two important things to announce."
On the steps of the Hongying Martial Hall's Main Hall, Zhao Hongying was wearing a red robe and said loudly.
Although she is nearly sixty years old, she is well-maintained and looks to be in her forties. Unlike other warriors, her body is full of muscles and her figure is quite soft and slender.
But the round and tight outline of his legs declares to the world that his leg skills are definitely not weak!
This is also the skill that Hongying Martial Hall relies on to become famous.
Red Crane Movement Technique!
"I don't know what the two important things are."
Someone asked very cooperatively.
Zhao Hongying smiled slightly and said, "The first thing is that my adopted son Zhao Qing and my fourth disciple Song Lian are in love. They are willing to become husband and wife. The wedding will be held on a good and auspicious day in ten days. I would like to ask all my comrades to show their respect at that time."
"Congratulations!"
"This is a double blessing."
"Brother Zhao and Miss Song are the golden boy and girl. I've known for a long time that this day would come."
"Compared to Hong Wenjuan, who is Hong Clan Martial Hall, and Hong Wenjuan, Senior Sister Song and Zhao Senior Brother are a match made in heaven."
One person said with a flattering face, stepping on and holding each other.
Everyone looked over and saw that this man with a pockmarked face was Tian Fei who ran away from the Hong Clan Martial Hall together with Zhao Qing, and was the sixth disciple of Hong Zhengdao.
I heard that this person is very close to Zhao Qing. He is a submissive person and is Zhao Qing's lackey.
When I saw it today, it certainly lived up to its reputation.
"The second thing will be announced next."
Zhao Hongying said loudly, "Qing'er, it's up to you to announce this matter yourself."
"Yes."
Zhao Qing took a step forward and said loudly, "I, Zhao Qing, will publicly challenge Hong Zhengdao tomorrow at Dongyang Gathering Terrace. This battle is about victory and defeat, as well as life and death. If Hong Zhengdao dare not come on stage, then Hong Clan Martial Hall can be removed from Jin City from now on!"
Everyone was in an uproar!
Zhao Qing These words were like a bolt from the blue, shocking everyone. They felt that they had heard wrong, and couldn't help but look around and started whispering.
"What a hatred, you actually launched Name-Stripping Duel."
Some people may not understand what delisting means, but they all know it.
Removing your name means that you, Hong Clan Martial Hall, will no longer exist.
Not only the name disappears, but all the people inside also disappear.
Either escape from Jin City and never appear again, or they all die!
Therefore, unless there is a life-and-death feud, no one would initiate Name-Stripping Duel.
Moreover, Name-Stripping Duel has strict rules. If the gap between the two parties is too big, they will not be recognized by the people in the world.
For example, if Zhao Hongying launches Name-Stripping Duel while Hong Zhengdao is seriously injured, it will be a joke and someone will stab him in the back.
Moreover, they are both affiliated with Inner City Yuan Family. Yuan Family will mediate and will never allow them to mess around.
Zhao Qing has no such concerns.
He had just broken through the Tendon Transformation Realm, and he legitimately declared war on the pretext of having an unknown hatred with Hong Zhengdao. Yuan Family couldn't say anything wrong about him.
Of course, whether you can't say it or you deliberately don't say it are two different things.
Who knows what Yuan Family is thinking.
But no matter what, since Zhao Qing initiated Name-Stripping Duel, this is forcing Hong Zhengdao to fight, vowing to win Hong Zhengdao.
Hong Zhengdao should not do it but should do it!
If you accept the challenge, you may still win, and you may also have a chance to save everyone under the Hong Clan Martial Hall.
Not fighting is tantamount to giving up. Unless they move out overnight, they will die.
"This Zhao Qing is so courageous! He has just broken through the Tendon Transformation Realm, and yet he dares to openly challenge Hong Zhengdao in a life and death battle. Has he forgotten the scene when Hong Zhengdao kicked Chen Hui's Master to death?"
"He said he just broke through the Tendon Transformation Realm, did he really just break through? Maybe he had already broken through, but just announced it today."
"Not bad."
One person echoed, "One more thing, don't forget, Zhao Qing was the former chief disciple of Hong Zhengdao. He knows Hong Zhengdao like the back of his hand. In addition, he learned special skills from Zhao Hongying, and his strength has improved by leaps and bounds. Isn't it easy to deal with a disabled Hong Zhengdao who has lost strength?"
"That's not necessarily the case. A skinny camel is bigger than a horse. Hong Zhengdao is also the pinnacle of Tendon Changing, and masters usually hold back. If Zhao Qing challenges you rashly, you may not win."
"Yes, why is he so impatient. With his talent and age, if he is allowed to settle for a while, Hong Zhengdao will definitely not be his match. If he has to risk such a move, what is his purpose?"
"I think the water here is very deep, and there must be some unknown reasons. Maybe there is something behind it..."
"No matter what the reason is, with Zhao Qing's character, he will never do anything he is not sure of." One person interrupted the other person, fearing that the other person would say something shocking.
Another person suddenly asked curiously, "Zhao Hongying supports Zhao Qing so much and even adopts him as an adopted son. What grudge does he have against Hong Zhengdao?"
"You don't even know this? It is said that Hong Zhengdao betrayed Zhao Hongying, and Zhao Hongying never married."
"Love is so deep that hate is so deep."
"By the way, after listening for a long time, I am very curious, what is the name of the Chen Hui's Master you are talking about?"
"..."
Because the incident of Zhao Qing publicly challenging Hong Zhengdao was so bizarre and shocking, it was the most talkative thing that happened to Jin City recently, and everyone couldn't help but talk about it with those around them.
The whole Outer City was instantly plunged into a boiling atmosphere!
