The gods began by supporting Guo Jing to become emperor

Chapter 30 Ma Yu Arrives in the Desert

On a distant mountain peak, a figure stood there, his wide Taoist robe rustling in the breeze. His beard was all white, but his face was very rosy. He held a whisk in his hand, and had three buns on his head that stood tall. His clothes were spotless despite the wind and sand.

"Is he Guo Jing? As Yin Zhiping said, his internal strength is very poor."

After Yin Zhiping returned to Quanzhen Sect, he reported the truth to Qiu Chuji. However, the young man was shy and felt ashamed of losing to Guo Jing, so he told his master that Guo Jing's lightness skills were very poor and his internal strength foundation was very shallow, and he only defeated him by brute force.

This person is Ma Yu, also known as "Danyangzi". He is the eldest disciple of Wang Chongyang and the leader of the "Seven Sons of Quanzhen". Not long ago, he learned from Yin Zhiping about the bet between Qiu Chuji and the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan. He admired the fact that the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan stayed in the desert for more than ten years to fulfill the bet. He tried to persuade Qiu Chuji to admit defeat several times, but Qiu Chuji refused to agree.

That's why he secretly came to Mongolia, wanting to find Guo Jing and help him win the bet. In his opinion, what the Seven Heroes of Jiangnan did was comparable to the ancient sages' promise of a thousand gold. The desert was full of sandstorms and the conditions were harsh. How could the Jin Kingdom be compared to it?
Junior fellow apprentice Qiu Chuji usually lived in Mount Zhongnan and was served by others. When he arrived at the palace of Wanyan Honglie of the Jin Dynasty, he was treated with courtesy. As for the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan, they spent the best years of their lives in the barren desert just to fulfill the bet.

If the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan had taught Yang Kang and Qiu Chuji had taught Guo Jing, Ma Yu would never have had such an idea. But now this is the result, and he can do nothing about it. He only hopes that the efforts of the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan can be rewarded and win the bet with his junior brother.

In essence, this is also the idea that good people will be rewarded. A bet is nothing to Qiu Chuji. He is the head of Quanzhen Sect, and losing will not affect Quanzhen Sect.

But if the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan lost, it would be a huge blow to them. More than ten years of hard work would be wasted in the end and they would get nothing.

He saw the whole process of Han Xiaoying teaching Guo Jing. As a master of his generation, his vision was not comparable to the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan. Han Xiaoying felt that Guo Jing was dull and did not study hard, which let her down.

But in Ma Yu's eyes, Guo Jing's foundation was extremely solid, especially his lower body was extremely stable, his blood and energy were rich, and his essence was full. As long as he had superior internal skills, he would be able to see immediate results and be reborn.

There was no way. The internal strength cultivated by the Seven Freaks of Jiangnan was too poor, which delayed Guo Jing's development.

Ma Yu opened his arms, the wide sleeves of his Taoist robe fluttering in the strong wind at the top of the cliff, and leaped up like a giant bird. The cliff was dozens of feet high, and some places were as steep as a wall, but he just used his toes to gain leverage on the cliff wall, and in less than a moment, he landed lightly.

This is the Quanzhen Sect's Golden Goose Kung Fu, which is also top-notch in the world today.

On the other side, Master Han Xiaoying was angered and ran away. Guo Jing could not catch up with her, so he could only pick up the sword and practice over and over again. However, after practicing for a long time, there was still no improvement in this move of "Hitting the White Ape with a Branch", and he was secretly anxious.

Suddenly, a cold voice came from behind, "It will be useless to practice like this for another hundred years."

Guo Jing was startled, put away his sword and looked back, only to see a Taoist priest with a Taoist bun and a white beard standing behind him. He was wearing loose clothes with wide sleeves, but his body looked spotless, and he had a kind smile on his face, which made Guo Jing feel good about him.

"What did you say?"

Ma Yu smiled slightly without answering, and suddenly took two steps forward. Before Guo Jing could react, he felt his right arm go numb. He didn't know what happened, but he saw a flash of green light, and the long sword that he had been holding tightly in his hand was now in the Taoist's hand.

The skill of snatching a blade with bare hands is Zhu Cong's unique skill, which he also taught to Guo Jing. Although he was not able to practice it well, he had understood the general trick. However, the Taoist snatched his sword in an instant, and he didn't even know what method the Taoist used.

He was suddenly horrified and took several steps back, becoming secretly alert.

Seeing this, Ma Yu still had a smile on his face and said to Guo Jing, "See clearly!"

Having said that, he jumped up.

"Buzz!"

After only hearing a few sword sounds, Ma Yu had already swung his sword in the air, making six or seven sword flowers, stabbed downwards, and then landed lightly on the ground, his figure was elegant and relaxed.

This was exactly the "Branch Hitting White Ape" that Han Xiaoying had taught him. This person's moves were swift and seemed even more powerful than Master Jiu. Guo Jing was stunned and lost in thought. The Taoist threw the stick lightly and stabbed it straight into the ground. Guo Jing suddenly kept thinking about Ma Yu's kung fu and found that none of his masters seemed to be able to do it like him.

Seeing that he was stunned, Ma Yu picked up the long sword on the ground and handed it back to him.

Guo Jing subconsciously took the sword, and Ma Yu turned around and pretended to leave. Seeing him leaving, Guo Jing suddenly became anxious and hurriedly tried to stop him, "Please stay."

Ma Yu's smile deepened, he turned around and looked at him, "Little brother, is there something wrong?"

Guo Jing scratched his head, not knowing how to start. Suddenly, a light flashed in his mind. He walked to the Taoist priest, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly, he didn't know how many times he kowtowed in one breath.

His teacher taught him that when an opportunity comes, he must seize it. Although Guo Jing did not understand, he knew that the Taoist priest in front of him was his opportunity.

Ma Yu stroked his beard, with a smile in his eyes, "Why are you kowtowing to me?"

Guo Jing felt sad. Seeing the kind face of the Taoist priest, he couldn't help but choke up. "I... I'm very stupid. I can never learn Kung Fu, which makes seven masters angry."

Guo Jing would never be like this on normal days, but the fact that Han Xiaoying ran away in anger after failing to teach him today also affected him, so he was a little bit defensive.

"what do you want?"

Guo Jing said in a hoarse voice, "I have been practicing hard day and night, but it is always no use. No matter how much I practice, it is no use. Please teach me, Taoist priest."

Ma Yu nodded slightly, "Do you want me to show you a way forward?"

Guo Jing nodded vigorously: "That's right!"

After saying that, he kowtowed more than a dozen times.

Ma Yu smiled again. This was the purpose of his coming to the desert, so he would not embarrass Guo Jing. "I see that you are sincere. How about this? In three days, it will be the 15th day of the lunar month. I will wait for you on the top of the cliff at zenith tomorrow. But you are not allowed to tell your masters about this!"

As he spoke, he pointed to the cliff a few hundred meters away and floated away. Guo Jing saw the cliff that was dozens of meters high and panicked for no reason, "Master, my Qinggong is not good enough, I can't climb up!"

Ma Yu paid no attention to him, and after a few breaths he was more than ten feet away, as if he was not touching the ground.

Watching his departing figure, Guo Jing's eyes were full of envy. He stood up, looked at the cliff dozens of feet high in the distance, and secretly decided in his heart that he must seize this opportunity.

Then he thought about what the Taoist priest said about not mentioning this to his masters, which made him feel depressed. He already had masters but wanted to seek advice from others, and he had to hide it from them. Isn't that disrespectful to his masters?

After thinking for a long time, Guo Jing came up with a solution. The Taoist priest said that he could not tell his master, but he did not say that he could not tell his teacher. The teacher only taught him knowledge and not martial arts. It should be fine to tell him.

Thinking of this, Guo Jing's mind suddenly became clear, and he decided to tell Su Ming about this tomorrow.
