Knife splashing

Chapter 138 Playing tricks
In any fight, bickering is an important part.

The Jianghu fight is played by the Jianghu rules...

The battle of divination in the Xuan Sect talks about the great principles of law...

Even when countries are at war, they have to issue manifestos to curse each other.

This is true throughout history, both in China and abroad.

Young people who are new to the world may wonder why the old guys are so long-winded?

Let’s get started!
White knife goes in, red knife comes out, isn't that refreshing?
The reason is simple: it has benefits.

Just like what Tie Shigu said, it seemed like a mockery, but in fact he was forcing the Fire Bear Gang to admit defeat.

Firstly, he was not sure whether the Fire Bear Gang had any more trump cards. After all, the Shangshan lineage had already appeared, and it would be best if he could advance and retreat to reduce risks.

Secondly, admitting defeat and being defeated are two different things.

If you lose the battle, you can always find a way to get back on track.

If you admit defeat, you will be shorter than everyone else when we meet.

If you don't understand the reason, you will suffer in the future.

Xiong Baodong was well-known for his cunningness, so he naturally wouldn't be fooled. He sneered and mocked, "You old peasant, I think you are old, and you are just stubborn!"

"You're talking so harshly, how about we go up there and practice?"

Chang'an City is a place where good and bad people gather. Xiong Baodong's ability to gain a foothold here is naturally not just due to his scheming.

He had entered the realm of Hua Jin many years ago. Not only did he have a set of horizontal training skills, he also had the family-inherited Bajiquan, which made him extremely ferocious.

There is no telling how many people in the underworld died at his hands.

If it weren't for his bad reputation, he would have a chance to become the president of the Shenquan Guild.

Tie Shigu is also an expert at poking his feet, and he also practices the method of transforming energy, but he is old after all, and his strength is not as good as before.

If the two sides fight, they will definitely be defeated.

Of course, Xiong Baodong was just speaking in anger.

Although Tie Shigu, this old man, has a foul mouth, he is the president of the Foot Guild. If you really force yourself on him and get beaten to death by him, that would be a big deal.

You know, among the Five Elements, there are still many people who are not involved in this matter, such as several store names and the Cao Gang, which he fears the most.

Once Tie Shigu dies, the five elements will unite against the enemy.

The key lies in the people behind them!

He doesn't want to get into this bad luck.

Therefore, without waiting for Tie Shigu to speak, Xiong Baodong immediately changed the subject and said in a deep voice: "I have already said that we want to fight, and I haven't asked anyone to wait."

"You guys are willing to wait, but I don't have time!"

"Either you send someone up right away, or I'll turn around and leave. Let's end the battle today and make an appointment another day!"

He is just playing tricks on me.

Today's incident is definitely a failure. I didn't expect that Li Yan could invite two such ruthless people to help.

It was impossible for him to admit defeat; he couldn't afford to lose face.

According to reports from subordinates, there is a more ferocious one on the way, but for some reason, he has not arrived yet.

This was his chance.

Either go up and win a game, which would save some face.

Either leave immediately and fight again another day.

A disciple of the Shangshan lineage has been injured. If he goes back to exaggerate the situation, Yue Fachong might take action next time.

By then, it might even be possible to turn defeat into victory!
Master Tie was amused. "Xiong, everyone can hear what you are thinking. Do you really think we are all fools?"

Xiong Baodong pretended to be impatient and waved his hand, saying, "Stop talking nonsense. Are you going to come up or not? If not, I will leave immediately!"

Upon hearing this, Hong Yaksha looked directly at Liu Wenchen and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Liu, I have something else to say. I also want to make it clear to you."

"No matter how valuable some things are, if you take them, you take them. I don't care even if they are stolen."

"But this is about the inheritance of the incense. No matter whether you picked it up, took it, or bought it... unless my lineage is extinct, this matter will not be over!"

"Don't bother others with our business."

"Get on the stage!"

She was filled with rage and had no intention of hiding her murderous intent.

Seeing this, Liu Wenchen immediately felt a little regretful.

Just as Hong Yaksha said, although the Ziwu Demon-Slaying Sword is a good magic weapon, what is more important is that it contains the inheritance of the opponent's magic lineage and is quite powerful.

It seems that he is just unwilling to return it, but in fact he is trying to seize the other party's inheritance.

Just as Hong Yaksha said, no matter how he got this thing, he cannot hold it safely unless others agree to give it up.

Therefore, he used the name of fighting to force Red Yaksha to admit defeat and make the matter a reality.

Now it seems that the attempt to steal a chicken ended up with a loss of the rice.

To be honest, at this point, Liu Wenchen had already wanted to return the sword, but he knew that the matter was no longer up to him.

As for going on stage, he naturally didn't dare to do so, so he turned his head away and pretended not to hear what Red Yaksha said.

"Let me do it."

Li Yan stopped Hong Yaksha and said with a smile: "Sister Hong, why are you so anxious? You go ahead and hold the line. I will go up and try my hand."

Then he turned around and said, "Boss Xiong, stop playing tricks on me and send someone up there quickly. It's the middle of the night, we need to get this over with as soon as possible!"

After saying that, he ignored Xiong Baodong and walked towards the ruins.

Xiong Baodong frowned and looked to the side, "Is this the leader of that group?"

Liu Wenchen nodded quickly and said, "Yes, I heard some news. This guy was originally a warrior. He defeated the sons of Zhou Pan's clan in Xianyang and became famous."

"He just built a building in Taibai Mountain a few days ago. He is a rookie who has just entered the Xuanmen, so he is easy to deal with."

"It's so easy to deal with!"

Xiong Baodong scolded: "At such a young age, if you don't have any skills, how can you convince so many people? You are really going backwards!"

Liu Wenchen looked embarrassed and didn't dare to speak anymore.

"Humph!"

Xiong Baodong snorted coldly and turned his head to look around. "Everyone, it seems that we have lost today, but we can still win the battle. Whoever wins the game, I will not treat him unfairly."

But the others are not fools either.

Those who went up tonight were all experts, but one died and one was injured, which made them a little frightened.

Looking at the opposite side, neither Wang Daoxuan nor Hong Yaksha tried to stop him, which showed that they had great confidence in the young man.

Only a fool would do this at a time like this.

Therefore, the remaining warlocks looked at each other, and no one said a word.

"What a coward!"

Xiong Baodong was amused, "You guys are really amazing. You all boasted loudly in the past, but you can't be trusted at the critical moment!"

He was full of grievances, but seeing Tie Shigu's mocking eyes, he didn't want to let outsiders laugh at him anymore, so he rolled his eyes and suddenly said in a deep voice: "Yao San, you go!"

"Ah."

Along with the indifferent voice, a person appeared from behind him.

This was an inconspicuous man of medium height, wearing a tattered sheepskin coat, with two swords on his waist, a bamboo hat on his head, and a face full of stubble and a weathered look.

He is no different from those down-and-out swordsmen on the Guanzhong Road.

However, Tie Shigu's expression changed and he scolded, "Xiong Baodong, this is a Xuanmen battle, why did you send him up there?!"

When Sharifei saw this, he was also shocked and said in a lost voice: "It's Yao San, how come he is still alive?"

"Hahaha…"

Xiong Baodong touched his chin and cursed: "You are getting old and confused. What is Xuanmen? Anyone who can use magic tools is Xuanmen!"

As he spoke, he took off the jade Bagua plate from his neck, put it on Yao San himself, and sneered, "Okay, now we have a magic weapon, right?"

"Go ahead, be quick!"

The man Yao San nodded silently and walked towards the ruins, walking faster and faster, and then suddenly exerted force with his feet.

With a whoosh, snow flew everywhere and the man disappeared.

"Fuck you, Brother Yan, stop hitting me!" Seeing this, Sharifei shouted angrily.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan in the distance just waved his hand, signaling them to rest assured. Wang Daoxuan frowned, "What's going on?"

Sharifei said angrily, "That man is a well-known swordsman in the Green Forest. He has long been at the peak of the Dark Power and has killed countless people. How come he has become a lackey of the Fire Bear Gang?"

"Also, the village of this man was destroyed by the people led by Li Yan's father!"

"He was saved by Xiong Baodong."

Tie Shigu, the head of the Foot Trade, said in a deep voice, "This man was put in death row and was to be executed in the autumn, but Xiong Baodong spent a large sum of money to rescue him and made him a death warrior, specializing in doing shameful things."

"The key is the jade plate, which is Xiong Baodong's personal treasure. Ordinary magic can't do anything to him."

"We can't fight this game, just admit defeat!"

"The peak of dark energy?"

Wang Daoxuan pondered for a moment, shook his head and said, "It's okay, Brother Yan's skills are also extraordinary. Even if I can't win, it's no problem to save my life."

Sharifei was startled and whispered, "The things were taken away again?"

Seeing Wang Daoxuan nod, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

What the two were talking about was naturally the collusion.

They followed Li Yan all the way in pursuit of the inheritance, and also captured the first criminal in Taibai Mountain, so they naturally knew the matter of the certificate.

The opponent's magic weapon is powerful, but it is not powerful enough to stop the ghost soldiers of the underworld.

Moreover, the two of them could see clearly that if they fought tonight, the news would probably spread throughout Chang'an Xuanmen tomorrow. Li Yan's move at this time probably also had Xiang Maner in mind.

Tie Shi Guben wanted to persuade them, but when he saw the expressions of the two men, he frowned slightly and stopped talking.

And the worshipper Lu next to him was also looking into the distance with great interest.

He finally figured it out tonight. Although Red Yaksha was the person involved and two masters appeared in succession, the young man Li Yan in the ruins was the real core.

Isn’t this the little warlock who just built the building?

What exactly is it capable of?
……

Li Yan stood quietly on the ruins.

He actually doesn't care who plays.

Tonight is not a life-and-death fight with no escape route. If you meet someone you can't afford to offend, the worst that can happen is that you admit defeat and leave.

This is the advantage of being young.

It’s normal to lose to a master.

Of course, it is also necessary to test your own combat effectiveness.

He has made some progress in his dark energy, and learned the magic of the Northern Ghost Emperor of Fengdu Mountain. He has a token on him that can summon five battalions of ghost soldiers...

In Wang Daoxuan's words, he is already an outlier.

To be honest, Li Yan really hoped that a master would come.

At least, you can weigh your own weight.

Swish!
When the snow and wind came, the swordsman jumped down from the broken wall.

Li Yan looked at the jade token on the other party's chest, feeling a little disappointed, "Is there no one left in the Fire Bear Gang?"

In fact, when Li Yan saw the jade plate, he already had some guesses in his mind that this thing might be a means for warriors to deal with sorcerers.

With this item for self-defense, and Xiong Baodong's skills, ordinary warlocks probably have no power to resist at all.

"Of course there's no one."

The swordsman opposite answered honestly: "The people of Xuanmen are full of arrogance. The Fire Bear Gang has a bad reputation. Those who come here for profit are naturally not very smart."

"They were scared, and no one dared to take action."

After that, he asked again: "Are you Li Hu's son?"

Li Yan became interested, "Why, you know my father?"

Swordsman Yao San nodded slightly, his eyes full of memories, "Yes, your father was a man of great courage."

"Ten years ago, the Zhao family from Chang'an was robbed and killed by bandits when they returned home. When your father found out, he took a few good fighters up the mountain that night and wiped out the stronghold before daybreak."

Li Yan frowned slightly, "You were following my father at that time?"

Yao San shook his head and said, "No, I am the leader of the village that was wiped out by your father."

Li Yan was stunned, then understood, "You want revenge?"

"No."

Yao San said calmly, "I was rescued by the Fire Bear Gang many years ago. If you want revenge, I would have gone to Lijiabao and wiped out your family long ago!"

"In fact, I envy your father."

"Back then, I also went to Chang'an alone, and I also wanted to be like your father, to make a name for myself and become a hero praised by everyone."

Li Yan laughed dumbly, "It's not too late now."

Swordsman Yao San calmly shook his head and said, "You don't understand. If you take the wrong path, you can only keep going down it."

"Otherwise, I'm nothing..."

As he spoke, he grasped the two swords at his waist and slowly pulled them out.

Clang——!
As the knife rang for a long time, his eyes became cold and bloody, "Bad reputation is still a reputation."

"Yao family, Qiankun double-slashing swords!"

Li Yan's eyes also became solemn, and Guanshan's knife slowly came out of its sheath.

"watch out!"

Yao San snorted coldly, then leaped out in a Ziwu bow stance.

He used his hidden strength, and his whole body almost stabbed out at an angle, with both swords stabbing horizontally, like a scorpion's claws, and the tips of the swords were always facing Li Yan.

At this moment, the two were about thirty meters apart. After Yao San landed, his hidden strength burst out again. The two accelerations became faster and faster. In a blink of an eye, he came in front of Li Yan and stabbed him with his left hand knife.

So fast!

Li Yan was shocked and stepped back quickly.

The opponent actually called it the Qiankun Sword, which must be a combination of Qiankun and the real and the fake. This sword was to lure him into a defensive move, and the next one would be a killing move.

Sure enough, as he retreated, Yao San's right knife had chopped down at a faster speed, and then he rushed forward and slashed.

Both times were feints!

Not only that, Yao San also used hidden power in his last knife strike, and the speed of the knife increased again, and the blade actually made a sharp whistling sound in the air.

This time, Li Yan had no choice but to block it.

Of course, he also exploded with hidden energy.

If not, the Guanshan sword in his hand would probably be knocked away with one move.

clang!
The blades collided, making a loud sound.

Li Yan's expression changed slightly and the knife in his hand almost slipped out of his hand.

But he didn't have time to think about it, and he burst out with his hidden strength again, swiping left, right, and downward.

Ding ding ding! Sparks flew everywhere, and he blocked three swords in a row.

And this is already his limit.

Although his hidden strength had made some progress, it was no longer able to recover from such continuous outbursts.

However, Yao San on the opposite side had already reached the peak of dark energy. Each of his sword strikes was faster and faster than the last, and became more and more powerful, with the blade also carrying a vibrating force.

clang!
Finally, there was another crisp sound.

Li Yan only felt a huge force coming at him, and his body took several steps back. At the same time, Guanshan's knife also flew out in a spin.

With a clang, the long sword fell to the ground, and the blade was twisted.

Li Yan looked at the intact double swords in the opponent's hands and laughed, "Well, I thought you wanted to compete with me in swordplay, but I never thought you were suppressing me with your skills and swords. I almost got fooled by you."

Yao San swung his two swords, making a flower shape, and said calmly: "Your father once told me that in the battles of Jianghu, only those who survive have the right to speak."

"Today, I will give you this again."

"On your way to the underworld, remember to tell your father..."

"no need!"

Li Yan interrupted directly, took up his fist, and murderous intent rose in his eyes.
"I'll teach you this again!"
