Such terrifying skill is something even the sect leader, Zuo Lengchan, probably couldn't achieve!

However, it is truly unbelievable that this person, despite his young age, possesses such profound skill. There are many exceptionally talented individuals within the Songshan Sect, but none of them could accomplish something like killing Fei Bin, a quasi-sect leader, at such a young age.

However, these dozen or so disciples of Mount Song were not afraid. One of their disciples had already sent out a carrier pigeon, and in a little while, the sect would dispatch a large number of experts to arrive. Even if this kid had three heads and six arms, he wouldn't be able to escape unscathed from the siege of hundreds of experts.

Meanwhile, Li Wei was already fed up with this kind of game.

"Get lost. I killed Fei Bin because he deserved to die. I had no real grudge against your Songshan Sect. If you are still so stubborn, I don't mind sending you all to accompany that Great Songyang Hand..." Li Wei released thirty percent of his aura, which was enough to intimidate the Mount Song disciples into retreating.

At this moment, a large group of disciples from Mount Song suddenly arrived in this once peaceful town. The leader of them was a strong man with a somewhat gloomy expression.

This man was Zuo Lengchan, the leader of the Five Sacred Sword Sect and the head of the Songshan Sect.

Fei Bin, the Great Songyang Hand, was his fellow disciple, and the two had an excellent relationship. Moreover, Fei Bin was one of Zuo Lengchan's right-hand men in his dominance of the martial arts world. Unexpectedly, he was killed in the Golden Basin Hand-Washing Ceremony a month ago, and was even killed in front of others. This was extremely damaging to the reputation of the Songshan Sect.

As soon as Li Wei and his group entered the town, they were recognized by spies from the Songshan Sect. This news was immediately relayed to Zuo Lengchan, who then led a large group of disciples to come and arrest them.

However, he never even considered whether he could control this person!

Li Wei sensed him as soon as he entered the tavern, and was secretly startled.

Since entering this mission world, Li Wei has seen many martial arts masters. Of course, the two grandmasters with the highest martial arts skills are the Nameless Old Monk and Feng Qingyang. The others are strong people like Yue Buqun who are sect leaders. However, the aura of the person who just entered the tavern is obviously stronger than Yue Buqun.

Although he hadn't seen the person, Li Wei already knew in his heart that it was probably Zuo Lengchan who had come in person.

Thinking of Zuo Lengchan, who possessed the true energy of frost, Li Wei suddenly felt a surge of excitement. Since sparring with the two grandmaster-level experts, he hadn't truly fought against an expert of the same level, and Zuo Lengchan seemed like a good choice.

A moment later, the sound of footsteps echoed from the wooden stairs, and Zuo Lengchan's figure came into Li Wei's sight.

Dressed in a silk martial arts robe and wearing a purple-gold crown, with prominent temples and a restrained aura, he truly lived up to his reputation as a martial arts master.

Li Wei knew very well that Zuo Lengchan was the strongest among the Five Sacred Sword Sect. Of course, if Yue Buqun hadn't castrated himself to learn the Evil-Resisting Sword Manual, Zuo Lengchan's dominance over the Five Mountains would have been a foregone conclusion. Such a powerful figure encountered a hypocrite, and the consequences were extremely tragic.

Zuo Lengchan went up to the second floor, he saw his dozen or so disciples gathered around a table, their faces filled with fear. They only breathed a sigh of relief when they saw him.

Three people sat at the table, one of whom was the murderer depicted in the portrait drawn based on the disciple's impression.

The other two were a man in blue who looked like a scholar, and the last one was dressed in the clothes of the Mount Hua Sect, which made Zuo Lengchan's heart skip a beat.

Of the Five Sacred Sword Sect, Yue Buqun of Mount Hua is the most troublesome. He always puts on a gentlemanly facade, but Zuo Lengchan knows it's all an act. Yue Buqun is even more ruthless and shameless than him. Since there's a Mount Hua disciple among these three, Fei Bin's matter might also be related to Yue Buqun.

.

Suddenly, Zuo Lengchan let out a cold laugh.

Even if it's unrelated, this is still an opportunity we can't let go of. If we can use this to bring down Yue Buqun, that would be a wonderful thing.

His expression immediately turned serious, and he said coldly, "So who dared to kill my junior brother and insult Mount Song? It turns out to be the disciple of Yue Buqun, the Gentleman Sword. Today I will first punish Yue Buqun and then go to Mount Hua to demand justice from him!"

Linghu Chong was furious. He had been adopted by Yue Buqun and his wife since he was a child and treated Yue Buqun with utmost respect. Hearing someone pin this blame on his master, Linghu Chong immediately jumped up and glared angrily at Zuo Lengchan.

Even Li Wei thought that Zuo Lengchan's move was indeed brilliant. Many upright people have to find a high-sounding reason for doing things, and Zuo Lengchan had clearly found a reason to deal with Yue Buqun.

However, although Zuo Lengchan was domineering and resourceful, his weakness was that he was too arrogant. Otherwise, Yue Buqun wouldn't have staged a scheme to steal his position as the leader of the Five Mountains Alliance.

While Li Wei was deep in thought, he suddenly noticed that his Black Paper had popped out.

"Mission: Subdue Zuo Lengchan. The process of obtaining the Book of Heaven will be fraught with difficulties, therefore you will need some forces and subordinates at your disposal. Reward upon completion: 300 cultivation points. Failure will result in a random downgrade of your martial arts skills."

Looking at the task, Li Wei shook his head with a wry smile. He couldn't accept the outcome of a downgrade in the Sunflower Divine Skill, and subduing Zuo Lengchan didn't seem to be particularly difficult.

On the other side, Linghu Chong and Zuo Lengchan had already started fighting without saying a word.

Although the Nine Swords of Dugu were powerful, Zuo Lengchan, who had been famous for many years and was the leader of a sect, was no weakling either. Therefore, the two fought fiercely and were evenly matched. However, in Li Wei's opinion, Linghu Chong had not mastered the Nine Swords of Dugu to the full 10 levels, and his defeat was only a matter of time.

Sure enough, after fighting for a while, Linghu Chong was forced back several steps by Zuo Lengchan's Cold Ice Palm strike.

The icy true energy had a strong corrosive effect. Moreover, Linghu Chong's internal energy cultivation was not strong to begin with. After all, he had not yet cultivated the Shaolin Yijin Jing. Therefore, a layer of frost that could be seen with the naked eye instantly appeared on his cheeks.

Despite his energy being blocked, he still wanted to continue fighting, but was pulled back by a hand.

"Brother Linghu, you should rest for a while. I'll take care of Zuo Lengchan!"

Linghu Chong turned around and saw that it was Li Wei who had pulled him. Knowing Li Wei's martial arts skills, he did not refuse and stepped back to circulate his internal energy to expel the icy true energy in his body.

Zuo Lengchan glanced at Li Wei and said coldly, "My junior brother Fei Bin, wasn't he killed by you?"

Li Wei nodded without saying much. To deal with someone like Zuo Lengchan, only fists could subdue him, so he charged straight in and started fighting.

This was the first time Zuo Lengchan had ever encountered someone who would attack with swords without uttering a word. He hurriedly used his internal energy to defend himself, but he didn't expect that a single punch from his opponent would give him a trembling feeling that he had nowhere to hide.

Li Wei used the Nameless Fist he learned from Bodhidharma's manuscripts. Even a Grandmaster-level Nameless Old Monk couldn't avoid it when it was unleashed, let alone a mere Sect Leader like Zuo Lengchan.

.

'Slap slap', these punches landed squarely, and Zuo Lengchan could only block with his arms. At the same time, a sense of horror arose in his heart. This young man was the first person who could make him so disheveled with his fists.

Under the Sunflower Divine Skill, Li Wei's movements were as fast as lightning, each move like a phantom. His fists rained down on Zuo Lengchan, who could only rely on his powerful internal energy to defend himself.

To outsiders, Zuo Lengchan appeared to be passively taking a beating, leaving the Mount Song disciples, who were about to cheer for their sect leader, dumbfounded.

As for the occasional icy true energy that Zuo Lengchan countered, Li Wei relied on his powerful Sunflower Divine Skill to make the coldness only seep into his skin and then disappear without a trace. After attacking for more than a dozen more moves, Zuo Lengchan was careless and was punched in the face by Li Wei. Immediately, the leader of the Five Sacred Sword Sect Alliance and a dignified martial arts master screamed and fell to the ground.

A clear fist mark was visible on his face, the blow having landed directly on him. Zuo Lengchan's head was buzzing, and he felt incredibly ashamed. This had happened in front of everyone; to be knocked down by a junior's random punches—how could he ever face anyone again?

In grief and anger, Zuo Lengchan let out a cry, jumped up from the ground, and channeled his icy inner energy into his palms, unleashing more than a dozen palm strikes at Li Wei.

This was Zuo Lengchan's signature move. He used this Cold Ice Palm technique to overpower the leaders of the Five Mountains Alliance and seize the position of Alliance Leader. Unfortunately, his wish to regain his honor was once again ruthlessly crushed by Li Wei.

Bang!

Another muffled thud. Li Wei's fist passed through the myriad palm shadows and slammed into Zuo Lengchan's face again. This time, our Sect Leader Zuo saw stars and lay on the ground, unable to get up. The pain on his face was secondary; he simply couldn't believe that his martial arts, which he had painstakingly cultivated for over 30 years, would be defeated by a boy who was not even 20 years old.

If word got out, he'd want to kill himself, but there were definitely many people there who saw it, and there was no way to hide it!

Overwhelmed with mixed feelings, Zuo Lengchan knew that he had completely failed this time. He had always believed that his talent was first-rate and his martial arts skills had reached a state of perfection. Now it seemed that all of this was a joke. He had not yet dominated the martial arts world, but he had been defeated in this small tavern.

"It would be more satisfying to be killed by them than to do this!" Zuo Lengchan, his face swollen, jumped up from the ground again, grabbed a broadsword, and attacked Songshan Sword Technique.

Seeing Zuo Lengchan, his face covered in blood, lunging at him again like a theatrical performer, Li Wei sneered. He wanted to completely crush Zuo Lengchan's pride; only in this way could he possibly subdue this man.

Using his full Sunflower Divine Skill, Li Wei once again unleashed the Nameless Fist, first using a special technique of the Sunflower Divine Skill to deflect the attacking sword blade with his fingers, and then delivering a solid punch to Zuo Lengchan's face.

This time, Zuo Lengchan, who had fallen to the ground, refused to get up no matter what.

His heart was bleeding, hoping it was all just a dream. He, the leader of a sect, the master of the Five Mountains Alliance, and a martial arts master, had been brutally beaten in the face three times in a row. He didn't even need to look to know that his face was swollen like a pig's head.

The sect leader had been beaten into a pig's head, a pig's head indeed! His pride told Zuo Lengchan that at this moment, it would be better to die.

He was about to slap himself on the forehead to end this shameful life when he suddenly heard a series of screams.

Looking up, Zuo Lengchan was stunned by what he saw.
