The thunderous explosion coincided with the thunderbolt in the dark clouds overhead, shaking the earth, stirring up smoke and dust, and spreading into air waves visible to the naked eye.
The shock wave generated by the collision penetrated the ground, causing the soil to crack like a spider web, then break and sink. Then it was driven by the spreading air waves and turned into a very small sandstorm, raging around. It took a long time before it gradually stopped, and the sand and rain mixed into a rolling turbid current.
After a while, the smoke and dust dispersed.
What he saw was Li Yiran paralyzed on the ground. His spirit Divine Intent was completely shattered, and his pupils were filled with panic and fear.
On the other side is Wang Ping who looks slightly shocked.
Between him and Li Yiran, there was another person appearing out of thin air. His expression was fierce, and his lips and teeth were slightly opened while breathing, revealing teeth as sharp as knives.
"It's him..."
Wang Ping instantly recognized the other person. He was one of the two royal ministers who gave him [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong] that day. It seemed that his name was Dog?
"Good boxing skills..."
At the same time, Dog, who blocked Wang Ping's fist at the critical moment, felt the unspeakable pain from his palm, and his heart was filled with shock.
Only when you really face this punch can you understand how powerful Wang Ping's seemingly simple punch actually is. After all, with his martial arts and physique, with the blessing of military skills and the protection of his armor, he was actually injured and could not completely block this punch.
Not far away, another royal worshipper, Monkey, was even more shocked.
Because not long ago, he had personally witnessed the strength of Wang Ping. Although it cannot be said to be weak, it was only at an average level and was far from strong.
But what the hell is this now.
It was enough to kill Xu Bingzheng and Titled Martial Master with one punch, but he could actually injure Dog.
"Three times, five times? No, this is at least ten times, or even dozens of times improved. Did he take the elixir? How could it be improved so fast!"
The next second, under the incomprehensible shocked looks of Monkey and Dog, Wang Ping retracted his fist, but his face was not happy, but he sighed regretfully:
"Sure enough, there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky."
Although the punch just now seemed to go straight, it was definitely not just powerful, but actually used many of his existing skills and methods.
The power starts from the ground, enters from the spine, and then penetrates all the bones, but it is integrated into one. It seems that there is only one punch, but in fact, all the power of the whole body is concentrated on the fist bones. If it were not for the assistance of Spirit Sense, it would take at least twenty years of hard training to reach this state.
It's a pity that he doesn't have Inner Force.
With his current physique, if he could refine Inner Force, the quality would be extremely high. If he exploded with all his strength, Dog would definitely not be able to block his fist.
"And with Inner Force Kung Fu, I can use Heavenly Demon Disintegration."
By then his strength will soar.
The future is promising.
Of course, besides that, he also has trump cards.
For example, the [Soul Seizure] technique he just learned in his previous life has many uses. Unfortunately, he has not yet mastered Law Power and cannot truly exert its power.
Wang Ping silently reviewed it in his mind, calculating the gains and losses, and then looked at Dog in front of him. After confirming that he at least had the ability to escape, he handed over his hand and said:
"I've met senior..."
Before he could finish his words, Monkey came over. Divine Intent transmitted the message and said straight to the point, "Have you mastered [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong]?"
Wang Ping was stunned for a moment, then nodded.
Monkey took a deep breath when he saw this. As expected, this Tiqi is also a [Transcendent talent], with supernatural powers and strength far beyond ordinary people.
Thinking of this, he became even more excited and quickly asked:
"How many doors?"
"..." Wang Ping blinked.
Seeing his appearance, Monkey said impatiently, "Don't be afraid, just to be honest, one door? Two doors? It can't be three doors, right?"
Wang Ping:"?"
No, is this martial arts so difficult?
I didn't notice it when I took out the loan.
For a moment, Wang Ping actually fell into a rare doubt. After thinking for a moment, he came up with an idea. Then he looked at Monkey, and Divine Intent also said:
"One door."
"What?" Monkey was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head subconsciously. "Impossible, how could you possibly punch such a fierce punch..."
The words stopped abruptly.
After a while, a look of horror gradually appeared on his face. "One door, one door... [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong] Have you mastered them all?"
Wang Ping nodded.
"Really?" Monkey gritted his teeth. "I don't believe it."
If this guy has really mastered [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong], with his Divine Intent strength, how could he not be able to tell?
Wang Ping heard this and silently removed [Life-Stealing Thief]'s cover.
"Boom!"
In an instant, Monkey felt that the sky and the earth were spinning, and Divine Intent locked on Wang Ping suddenly felt a burning sensation, just like looking directly at the sun with both eyes during the day.
That was a total of fourteen streaks of flying colored light - Copper Head, Iron Brow, Thousand-Jun Arm, Earth-Standing Vajra, Hundred-Step Divine Fist, Stone-Splitting Fist, Land-Piercing Steel Step, Mountain-Sinking Elbow, Bronze-Wall Knee, Armor-Hard Abdomen, Stone-Piercing Finger, Steel-Blade-Locking Throat, Golden Spear Unyielding, Steel Sinews, Iron Bones, Indestructible Vajra Body.
"..."
At this moment, Monkey fell into an unprecedented confusion. For a time, he didn't know what the world was, and even doubted whether he was dreaming.
I have been practicing martial arts for almost thirty years now.
From being valued by the first person and being selected as Attendant Hall, to training hard for ten years and winning the position of [Monkey] in one battle, he has always been the genius in everyone's eyes.
He once thought that practicing a mediocre [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong] and mediocre martial arts should be just a trivial matter. But once he did this trivial matter, he did it for thirty years, and in the end, he could only practice nine martial arts, and the tenth martial art was still out of reach.
But now, there is a boy who doesn't know where he came from.
I got the Cultivation Method yesterday and completed it today, and it is the thirteen-door Great Perfection that no one has ever achieved except for the first one so far...
What is this?
Thirty years of hard training on your own is not as good as one night of someone else's?
For a moment, Monkey felt that the fourteen colorful lights in front of him were so dazzling and beautiful, but the more he looked at them, the more his nose became sour.
"Am I not actually a genius?"
Monkey can't stop himself from thinking this. After all, compared to himself, the young man in front of him is the real genius, the lucky one favored by Martial Dao.
"Hiss!"
The next second, Monkey took a sharp breath and swayed on the spot again. Then he managed to stabilize State of Mind and smiled stiffly at Wang Ping.
"I believe it. My little brother is extremely talented and even better than me."
Wang Ping then accepted the vision.
As [Life-Stealing Thief] resumed operation, the originally soaring colorful light disappeared again, and Wang Ping returned to its ordinary appearance.
Monkey was a little reluctant to give up when he saw this. After all, he had dreamed of those fourteen colored lights. For a moment, he wished that Wang Ping could perform it for him again.
"Monkey?"
On the other side, Dog was still a little confused. Because Divine Intent was the voice transmitter for Wang Ping and Monkey, and the conversation was encrypted, he heard nothing.
However, his words immediately brought Monkey, who had been wandering in the world, back to his senses. Then he glanced at Crane-Feather Black Cloak, which represented Attendant Hall's identity and status. Then he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "Puppy, didn't you see it's still raining heavily?"
Dog was stunned. "Huh?"
Before he could react, Monkey continued, "It's cold now. Hurry up and put this clothes on your body on Little Brother Wang."
Dog:"..."
For a moment, Dog thought that Monkey was thinking about the previous conversation with him and was joking again, until Monkey really extended his hand to him.
The next second, Monkey pulled off the Black Cloak from Dog, and then put it on Wang Ping affectionately. His face was full of the unique gentleness of the elders. "Brother Wang, there are priorities. Put Longxing County's mission aside. Let's go back to the capital first. The leader will definitely want to see you."
Wang Ping blinked. "I came here on orders."
"The situation is special and special things should be handled." Monkey waved his hand. "Believe me, you are more important than anything else right now. The Holy Spirit will understand if you know this."
"That won't work."
Wang Ping shook his head and said seriously, "I am the emperor's imperial guard, Golden Cavalry Guard, and I have been favored by the emperor in this life. Now I am here with the order, how can I give up halfway?"
"What do you mean?" Monkey frowned.
"... You have to pay more!"
Wang Ping finally saw it and whispered, "This door [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong] should have a follow-up version Inner-Force Cultivation-Body Diagram, right?"
"Oh? You want [Martial God Illustrated Manual]?"
Monkey was stunned when he heard this, but did not agree directly. Instead, he looked embarrassed and said, "It's not that I can't give it, but what I have in my hand is a cut version."
"It's only suitable for people like me... well, people who are a little less talented than you."
"Since you have completely cultivated [Thirteen Guardians' Iron-Body Qigong], you should learn the complete [Martial God Illustrated Manual], but it can only be found in the first place..."
Speaking of this, Monkey said helplessly:
"So you still have to go to the capital with us and meet the leader first."
"Forget it."
Wang Ping shook his head. "Pay the deposit first... I plan to kill this guy, just don't stop me."
After saying that, Wang Ping looked at Li Yiran again.
I saw that this person no longer had the pride and elegance of Human Ranking Martial Master[Landscape Brush]. Instead, half of his body was stained with mud and water, making him extremely embarrassed.
When he saw Wang Ping walking towards him, he was even more frightened.
However, the next second, Monkey stood in front of him again and said in a low voice, "It's enough to kill one Zhenhu. Killing more will be too ugly."
"Imperial Academy will not allow this kind of thing to happen, and we are not ready for a head-on conflict with it. Now that the matter has come to this, it is better for both sides to take a step back. Forget about Xu Bingzheng's death. You will temporarily take over the post of county magistrate. Li Yiran will survive, but must return to the capital."
"What do you think?"
Monkey feels that the death of Xu Bingzheng has already suppressed Imperial Academy. If Li Yiran dies again, it will be a bit too much and will not be beneficial to the overall situation.
And Attendant Hall and Imperial Academy are both part of the imperial court after all.
The quarrel is too tense, and it will be difficult to do things in the future. Although Imperial Academy will definitely not be able to defeat Attendant Hall, it will be difficult to deal with if it really creates trouble.
"I agree!"
Li Yiran was the first to speak, bowing his head in submission and without any arrogance. "I, Imperial Academy, lost this time, and I will report back to Master Engineer."
"Imperial Academy is willing to admit defeat. This matter ends here."
"In the final analysis, Xu Bingzheng is just dead. He is not from a wealthy Aristocratic Clan family. No one would want to offend Attendant Hall for this."
"..."
Wang Ping did not respond.
Although Li Yiran speaks nicely, his [Desire-Realm Celestial Body] can capture other people's emotions and thoughts, and he can sense them at this moment -
[angry].
Underneath the seemingly obedient appearance, there is overwhelming anger. Wang Ping has no doubt that once Li Yiran is allowed to survive this time, there will be revenge in the follow-up.
"... Cutting off the weed requires eradicating the root. What if I must kill this person?"
Wang Ping said lightly.
As soon as these words came out, Monkey's expression suddenly changed slightly, and Dog even showed a bit of disgust. He couldn't help but said, "The royal family should take the overall situation into consideration."
"Are you going to let the relationship between the Attendant Hall and Imperial Academy turn against each other just because you are worried about being retaliated against? At that time, you will only be given up directly by the Attendant Hall."
"Really?" Wang Ping looked at Monkey.
"Uh..." Monkey opened his mouth, thought about the qualifications of the peerless talent in front of him, and thought about the style of his leader, then shook his head and said:
"No, I will still protect you. You are different from Dog."
Dog:"...?"
"But he is right about one thing. We, the royal family, shoulder the weight of the world. We should try our best to take the overall situation into consideration when doing things."
"I understand." Wang Ping nodded happily.
"Understood? Understood what?"
Monkey was stunned for a moment, then seemed to think of something, his expression suddenly changed drastically, and he ducked and was about to stop in front of Li Yiran again, but it was too late.
Before that, Wang Ping had activated the [Soul Seizure] technique, Spirit Sense vibrated, turned into an invisible big hand and grabbed Monkey and Dog hard, causing the two of them to suddenly lose consciousness and stand there, forgetting what to do, and then their fist landed lightly on the head of Li Yiran.
"You!?"
Li Yiran opened his eyes wide and couldn't believe what Wang Ping had done, let alone how he did it, but he clearly realized one thing.
He is going to die.
Regardless of the fact that he had already charged a lot in [Black Armor Battalion], his physical strength and energy were not at his peak. Even at his peak, he might not be able to block this punch.
"I... I..."
For a moment, Li Yiran's eyes were full of despair and unwillingness, but even if he urged Divine Intent, it would only slow down the revolving door before his death.
"Bang!"
After a soft sound, Wang Ping's fist seemed to have penetrated Li Yiran's Tianling Cap. His muscles and bones were turned into mud by the forceful spit.
"Wang Ping!"
The next second, Monkey and Dog both came to their senses, and Dog was even more furious. He was about to take action almost immediately, but was stopped by Monkey, who looked complicated.
"Why?" Dog turned around and glared.
Monkey's answer is also very simple:
"The man is dead."
Dead people have no value. Now that Li Yiran is dead, the conflict between the Imperial Academy and Attendant Hall is inevitable, and that good young man is even more important.
In other words--
"Royal service should take the overall situation into consideration... what the seniors said is true."
Wang Ping retracted his fist, took a step back very respectfully, and saluted. "But for now, the overall situation on my side should be more important."
