From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Chapter 127: A Thief's Code of Conduct: Benevolence, Justice, Wisdom, Courage and Faith (-word chapter)
As one of the most dangerous anomalies, although the destructive power of "Han Zang Leng Yun" is not as condensed as that of the Grandmaster of the Void Realm, it is still not inferior in terms of the scope and frequency of its impact.

After hundreds of bombardments, although most of the power contained in the lightning was drawn into Xu Xing's body, the mountain wall where he stood was completely frozen by the remaining power.

The inside of the mountain was in a state of rot and shaking constantly, but Xu Xing was not moved at all, and his eyes were flashing with a gleam like lightning.

After another bombardment, the entire mountain was on the verge of collapse, but Xu Xing also caught the declining trend of the evil spirit. His eyes focused, and he knew that this was the opportunity he had been waiting for for a long time.

Using the energy of "Cold Storage and Cold Clouds" to temper the body is certainly a good way of practicing, but Xu Xing also wants to try whether he can completely refine this rare mixed energy?
His brows lit up, and his soul left his body, rushing towards the deepest part of the thundercloud. His body instinctively stepped back on the mountain wall, completely cracking and shattering the frozen mountain top, and rushed towards where Li Ruohai was standing.

Although there was no prior communication, Li Ruohai still jumped up in tacit understanding, opened the "empty realm", held his body firmly, and then slowly descended to the ground.

Li Ruohai held Xu Xing's body and looked up at the thunderclouds in the sky, a trace of worry flashed across his eyes.
Although Xu Xing had roughly calculated the power of this thundercloud through his physical body, he still felt a tremendous pressure when he faced the explosive thunder force contained in it with his pure soul.

In fact, Xu Xing's mental power is already vast, otherwise he would not be able to easily drive the wind and clouds and gather them into the reality of vital energy.

But facing this thundercloud, he still felt a shudder.

This shudder came from the depths of the soul and had nothing to do with size. It was like encountering an irresistible natural enemy.

Xu Xing suddenly thought of a sentence:

"If you only cultivate your ancestral nature without cultivating the elixir, it will be difficult for your soul to become a saint after countless calamities."

It turns out that after leaving the physical body, the soul representing pure yin quality is so fragile in the face of this calamity created by heaven and earth.

Fortunately, Xu Xing's spiritual practice was already extremely strong. He had long reached the point of realizing his true nature and being unshakable. His soul had also been tempered and refined by many "historical imprints" in the "Nine Boundaries".

So, he just shook himself out of this state and felt even more excited.

——There is no doubt that my idea is right. Compared with the physical body, the soul can get the greatest benefit from it!

He walked slowly and meditated on the artistic conception of "one thunderclap that resounds throughout the world". He clenched his five fingers into a fist and smashed down fiercely, as fiercely and powerfully as beating a drum in the sky, and with a kind of vigor and vitality of a life that is striving forward.

A powerful and vast spiritual will spread along with the punch and spread all around.

Although this punch did not cause any sound, every being with an independent spirit could hear a huge and majestic thunder exploding in their ears.

Immediately afterwards, this frosty white thundercloud actually surged up and rolled in all directions. If it was like a wave just now, it was now just a thin layer of water mist at best.

The young man who was running towards this place looked up and saw something extremely shocking, a scene that could be called a miracle.

The thunderclouds that spread for several miles were spinning violently, like a huge funnel that reached the sky and the earth. At the tip of the funnel was a child-like figure that looked like a phantom made of green smoke.

The child stood in the air with his hands on his hips. He took a sudden breath and his chest swelled. Wind and clouds surged all around and gathered here. The entire group of thunderclouds was actually sucked into his stomach.

Lightning flashed violently and thunder rumbled, shaking the mountains. After a long while, the clouds and fog dissipated, and the entire sky within a radius of several miles became clear.

The shadow smacked its lips, turned its body, and a streak of white lightning split the sky and flew into the mountains.

When the young man came to his senses, the being, who was not sure whether it was a man or a god, had disappeared into the sky and was out of sight.

He stood there in a daze, scratching his head, wondering:

"The waves are turning over the clouds, the clouds are turning over the waves. I have been searching for the clouds for days and nights, but they are turned over by someone else. I don't even know who it is. Hey!"

Lang Fanyun shook his head and murmured:

"Forget it, forget it. We will definitely meet such a person in the future. Let's get down to business first."

Lang Fanyun sighed, put the monkey on the ground, put his arms around it, rested his head behind it, shook his head, and continued walking forward.

After walking for a while, he suddenly realized something, his face changed, and he touched his robe, only to find a hole there.

Lang Fanyun turned his head, looked at the monkey, gritting his teeth.

"Where's the token?"

The monkey turned his head away and imitated him, putting his hands behind his head and looking as if it had nothing to do with it.

"Good, good, good!"

Along the way, Lang Fanyun could no longer remember how much trouble this monkey had caused him. He shouted three times in frustration and suddenly drew the scabbard sword from his waist.

The sword swung and suddenly turned into a ball of cold light, then burst out and turned into thousands of cold rays, covering the monkey.

Although Lang Fanyun did not really use his sword, it was still extremely sharp. His sword moves were ever-changing and difficult to predict, like a long cloud in the sky, expanding and contracting at will. Even a famous figure in the martial arts world would not be able to take it on easily.

But the monkey was fearless, and either crawled or stood, making full use of its small size and flexibility to the fullest, weaving in and out of the rain of swords like a fish, and actually avoided eight out of ten of the sword forces.

Faced with the remaining one or two dozen sword moves that it could not avoid, it stretched out its two slender furry arms, drew perfect circles, and confronted the long sword head-on, making a dull clanging sound like the sound of an ancient bell.

Just as the man and the monkey were fighting, Xu Xing's soul returned to his body.

Seeing Xu Xing's soul return, Li Ruohai squatted down slightly and gently put his body back on the ground.

But in just a moment, a layer of ice chips had formed on her arms, and the surroundings were extremely cold, chilling to the bone.

Half of Xu Xing's luxurious green robe had turned frosty white, and his hair, skin, and eyes had become crystal clear, more like transparent ice crystals than jade.

From time to time, wisps of frosty white lightning flashed on the edges of his robes and between his hair, exploding into a series of sparks.

Xu Xing opened his eyes, and Li Ruohai breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his dark and deep gaze remained unchanged.

The girl really didn't expect that Xu Xing would use such a simple and direct method. He rushed in to accept the strikes of cold thunder and lightning, and took the risk of swallowing the entire thundercloud into his stomach.

Xu Xing himself didn't care at all. He just clenched his right fist, gently hit his chest with his backhand, opened his mouth and burped. Immediately, the surrounding area was filled with cold wind, electric currents, and crackling sounds.

Li Ruohai frowned, but couldn't help asking:
"You won't have any problems practicing like this, right?"

The road to the empty mirror in this world, in order to break the void, pursues the essence and purity. When it reaches the third level of heaven on the verge of breaking, all the impurities within the field must be eliminated before it can be truly broken.

Therefore, even if the Grandmaster of the Void Realm relies on the strange phenomena of heaven and earth to practice, he will only use the power of nature to sharpen his own field and will never absorb these impurities.

Li Ruohai had never seen anyone who could carry such violent evil energy in a pure mortal body, so a rare look of worry appeared in his eyes.

Xu Xing could understand her worries, so he explained seriously:

"No problem. I have used the Qi of the four lamas to practice the transformation of 'Great Vajra Power'. Now this 'Cold Thunder' Qi is just right for cleansing the soul and refining Qi.

Next, we should try to use the method of refining the 'empty realm' to open up a field in the human body, or it would be more accurate to use the word secret realm."

Having said that, Xu Xing also fell into deep thought, with tiny flashes of lightning leaping from the corners of his eyes.

After walking with Xu Xing all the way, Li Ruohai got used to his absent-minded look from time to time, so he just led the way in front.

Ever since they experienced the "Han Zang Thunder Cloud", the two of them were not so concerned about other strange phenomena in the world along the way, and their speed increased a lot.

In the afternoon of that day, the two finally saw human habitation which they had not seen for a long time. Once they left the remote wilderness, the climate visibly stabilized, taking on the appearance that it should have in late spring.

In this season, the business of the roadside herbal tea stalls has gradually picked up.

A few mats or thatch are placed on top of three or two bamboo poles, with a few wobbly tables and a few short stools of varying lengths placed underneath. A ladle floats in a large vat, and a dozen or so porcelain bowls with holes all over them are stacked up. This is a fairly standard herbal tea stall.

Xu Xing can maintain his vital signs and even improve his cultivation by swallowing the essence of heaven and earth, but Li Ruohai can't do that. Moreover, the girl prefers drinking and eating meat to those things.

If there is no wine or meat, it would be nice to drink some tea for a while.

So, the two of them were now in the middle section of the "Jianmen" plank road, sitting in a simple and shabby herbal tea stall. Li Ruohai picked up the porcelain bowl and drank six or seven bowls of herbal tea in a row before he breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she was a slender girl, her sitting posture could be described as very strong. She drank tea by tilting her head back and drinking it all in one gulp, showing the spirit of a hearty drinker.

The boss recognized that they were unattainable people just from the condition of their skin and Xu Xing's clothes. He deliberately looked away while making tea, not daring to look directly at them.

Xu Xing didn't order any tea, but just sat in the shop, watching the people coming and going.

Although the Jianmen plank road was narrow and steep, during the time they had been sitting there, Xu Xing had already seen many martial artists carrying swords and knives, and each of them exuded a strong aura, and most of them were at the "refining" level.

After observing for a while, he suddenly said:
"There are quite a lot of Jianghu people here."

After Li Ruohai finished his tea, he picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth quite lightly. After chewing it twice, he squinted his eyes in satisfaction and said slowly:

"In the Shuzhong area, the mountains are steep and the terrain is quite rugged. There are many areas that no one has ever reached. Naturally, there will be many treasures and strange phenomena. It is even possible that there will be a breach connecting to the 'outside world'.

These people from Jianghu come here specifically to look for opportunities."

Xu Xing recalled what he had just seen and nodded.

According to Li Ruohai, strange phenomena often appear in uninhabited places, because in areas where people gather, there are more warriors who breathe in and out evil energy, which can suppress the formation of strange phenomena from the source.

Based on what they saw and heard along the way, Shuzhong is indeed a treasure land suitable for martial artists to practice.

Looking at it this way, Xu Xing was able to get a glimpse of the whole picture and figure out a little about the world's structure.

Since the natural disaster, Zhang Sanfeng has been living high up in Wudang Mountain, suppressing the "void" caused by the destruction, and also suppressing the disasters caused by the natural disaster.

But for warriors who have reached a certain level of martial arts skills, these strange phenomena in heaven and earth are neither disasters nor misfortunes, but rather a rare opportunity.

What's more, if what Ying Yuan said was true, Zhang Sanfeng even blocked the way of that group of Half-Step Broken Masters, making it difficult for them to ascend, and they could only sit in sorrow.

From this perspective, Zhang Sanfeng almost single-handedly blocked the path to becoming the world's greatest master. No wonder although Miss Li admired him, there was something strange in her tone.

Hey, that's quite a bold move.

Thinking of this, Xu Xing turned around and asked:

"Miss Li, in this world, besides Zhang Sanfeng, Meng Chixing, and Ba Siba, how many other masters are qualified to challenge the Way of Destruction?"

Li Ruohai thought about it, then he counted them one by one with his white and slender fingers.

"Excluding these three people, the first person to be included is naturally the Lord of West City, Shen Wansan, who is also the first disciple of Liang Siqin, the founder of West City.

The next is the new master of Dalun Temple, the descendant of the former hero Chuan Ying Chuan, Living Buddha Ying Yuan, and the unrivaled 'magic master' Pang Ban. "

"Shen Wansan?"

Xu Xing was quite familiar with Ying Yuan and Pang Ban, but he didn't expect that there would be a role for Shen Wansan, the world's number one businessman.

Li Ruohai was already used to Xu Xing's half-knowledge of martial arts, so he began to tell a story about the history of West City that seemed to be different from what Xu Xing knew.

In the past, Liang Xiao from "West Kunlun" traveled to foreign lands with his wife Hua Xiaoshuang, and eventually they had a son, Liang Yinshuang.

Liang Yinshuang loved sailing and traveling to foreign lands, so he was not well-known in the world. However, his son Liang Siqin was a martial arts genius of his generation, and he carried forward the "Zhouliu Liuxu Gong" passed down by Liang Xiao.

In the original novel, Liang Siqin came to the Central Plains from foreign lands after mastering the Zhouliuxing Gong, and finally helped Zhu Yuanzhang achieve great things and unify the Central Plains.

However, due to his political differences with the ambitious Taizu and some personal grudges, he eventually left for Kunlun and established the Xicheng branch.

But in this world, Liang Siqin's magical power had not yet been fully developed before he met Ling Donglai, the "Supreme Master" who had retired from the world and traveled to the Western Regions.

At that time, Ling Donglai was already invincible in the Central Plains, so he left China and traveled around the world, visiting wise men all over the world, just looking for someone who was worthy of discussing Taoism with him.

Liang Xiao, the scholarly "Western Kunlun", was also one of Ling Donglai's targets. However, he did not expect that Liang Xiao had already been destroyed, leaving only his grandson Liang Siqin.

Fortunately, although Liang Siqin's Zhouliuxing Gong had not been fully mastered at this time, he had gained some real insights into the ultimate truth of heaven and man, which made Donglai happy to discuss it with him.

After the two parted, Liang Siqin had a different understanding of the way of heaven and man, so he did not set foot in the Central Plains, but came to Tianshan Kunlun to find a place to practice in seclusion. Eventually, he achieved the supreme way with the "Six Void Circulation Technique" and ascended to heaven.

After Ling Donglai talked with Liang Siqin, he also realized that the way to break is difficult to rely on others to accomplish. He went back to the "Ten Absolute Gates", practiced in seclusion for nine years, and broke by himself.

Shen Wansan was the only disciple Liang Siqin accepted before he ascended to heaven. In fact, he was the true ancestor who founded the "West City" lineage.

After Liang Siqin ascended to heaven, Shen Wansan was unable to uncover the secret of "Zhou Liuxu Gong", so he concealed his identity and came to the Central Plains, using the alias Wan Sanqian, and started a business.

At this time, Zhang Sanfeng had emerged from the Ten Absolute Pass, unified all the martial arts sects, and established the Tianxia Association. The entire Central Plains also looked like a place in need of reconstruction.

Therefore, the "No. 1 Village in the World" with a population of 13,000 took advantage of the situation and gathered a group of extraordinary people.

He also realized from business that "the way of heaven is to reduce the surplus and make up for the deficiency" and mastered the "Six Void Circulation Technique".

After achieving his goal, Wan Sanqian landed alone on Ling'ao Island, which was also known as the "East Island" in the martial arts world and had a deep feud with Liang Xiao of "West Kunlun" in the past. He defeated all the heroes of East Island with his mastery of the "Zhouliu Liuxu Gong".

It was not until this time that the world knew that this wealthy God of Wealth was actually the descendant of Liang Xiao of the former "West Kunlun".

After Wan Sanqian revealed his identity, he resumed his real name Shen Wansan, took the people from the world's number one village back to Tianshan Kunlun, opened up the West City lineage, and spread the deeds of his master Liang Siqin throughout the world, recruiting heroes.

After listening to this, Xu Xing was stunned for a moment and couldn't help but sigh:

"In my opinion, if this Shen Caishen really achieved success in his studies and believed that he had surpassed his master, he would probably change his name to Shen Guizang, or Wan Guizang."

Li Ruohai didn't understand why.

"What's the moral?"

Xu Xing shook his head, without further explanation, and just said:
“Just telling a joke.

However, he is doing this, I am afraid he has great ambitions and is also an ambitious person. "

Hearing this, a voice suddenly sounded behind Xu Xing:

“This brother is really insightful.

It is said that Old Man Shen has announced that he will return to East Island on June 6 to completely end this feud.

In my opinion, this old man is not coming for Dongdao, but for our Tianxiahui."

Xu Xing could feel that when he opened his mouth, the man had just passed the Jianmen Pass tower and was at least a hundred feet away from here. By the time the words "grudge" came out of his mouth, he was already right behind him.

The most commendable thing is not his speed, but his extremely light body. He can fly over a hundred feet away without causing any violent movement, just like a wisp of green smoke.

After that person stopped, a very gentle breeze blew across the entire plank road.

Xu Xing turned his head and looked at the short, thin, dark-skinned young man, and couldn't help but smile:

"As the sages said, one should not listen to anything impolite. Your behavior is a bit disrespectful. May I ask your name?" The young man thought that he could use such a natural tone to comment on Shen Wansan, a top figure of the time, and that he should be a heroic figure who was bold and unrestrained and not fussy about trivial matters.

But when he looked down, he saw only a little baby that looked like it was carved from cold crystal jade, with fair skin, red lips and white teeth. He was startled.

After being surprised, he looked at the luxurious clothes of the little kid with the instinct of a thief. The surprise in his eyes became even stronger, and he dared not underestimate this person anymore.

Even so, the young man still looked relaxed and carefree. He smiled and said nonchalantly:

"I am just a thief, so why should I bother with etiquette? My name is Fan Liangji, and I would like to ask for your name, little brother."

Hearing these words, even Li Ruohai, who had always been arrogant and looked down on the world, turned his eyes wide and was a little surprised.

In her life, she had never seen anyone who was so open about being a thief.

Xu Xingben was also a casual person, and what he said just now was just to tease him. Seeing Fan Liangji's behavior, he smiled and stretched out his hand to lead him:

"Brother Fan, please, please. I am just speaking casually about the matter of East Island and West City. I would like to ask you for the details."

Xu Xing was not surprised to hear the three words "Fan Liangji".

After all, this "lone thief" would later become a top-notch master on the blacklist, so it was natural for him to have such skills.

When Fan Liangji heard this, he felt a little strange. He felt that there was a very familiar feeling in the tone of this child.

It was as if this person's origins had already been known.

As Fan Liangji was thinking, he noticed Li Ruohai, who was wearing tight clothes and holding a red gun. His eyes fixed and he instinctively shrank his head, and even his voice trembled:
"This girl, could it be the 'evil spirit' Miss Li?"

"Evil Spirit" Li Ruohai has been in the martial arts world for only a few years, but he has already become extremely famous in the Central Plains martial arts world. His reputation is extremely powerful, and his unscrupulous behavior is also widely known.

It is said that when the "evil spirit" first appeared, it destroyed a small gang with cruel means, killing dozens of people without leaving any alive. It was well versed in the way of cutting the grass and eradicating the roots.

Then, she used this revenge-seeking method to challenge dozens of sects one after another. She never considered the time and place when challenging, and often came alone in the middle of the night, as if seeking revenge, and only chose the masters among them to challenge.

When the veteran generals and disciples of these sects gathered together and prepared to besiege, she withdrew in time and disappeared without a trace.

But except for the first one, she would only beat people to serious injuries at most, and would not kill anyone unless she had no other choice.

Therefore, the Tianxiahui did not regard her as a demon. The word "evil spirit" means that she acts like a ghost and it is difficult to figure out the rules. It also means that she acts recklessly and does not abide by the rules of the underworld.

Although Fan Liangji was proud of his martial arts skills, he had a very clear self-awareness and always considered himself a thief rather than a warrior. Therefore, he would never want to get involved with an unscrupulous fighting maniac like Li Ruohai.

——Even if this fighting maniac is the most beautiful woman in the world, it is still the same.

Hearing these words, the people passing by couldn't help but stop and look at Li Ruohai.

When Xu Xing and Li Ruohai sat down just now, they had already used some spiritual suggestion methods to make the passing warriors subconsciously ignore their existence, so as not to cause a sensation.

But now that Fan Liangji has revealed the secret, this hint of effectiveness naturally has no effect.

Hearing that the "evil spirit" known as "the most beautiful woman in the world" was here, these people in the martial arts world were naturally extremely excited.

Fortunately, the "evil spirit" was famous for her eccentric personality, outstanding achievements and her stunning appearance, so many people just took a look at her and then left in a hurry, looking back from time to time.

Li Ruohai was accustomed to this kind of situation, but he still didn't look happy towards Fan Liangji who disturbed his peace.

So, she leaned one hand on the table, glanced at Fan Liangji, and didn't answer, but just nodded her chin at him.

But even with this small action, Fan Liangji felt like he had received a great blessing, and he nodded and bowed continuously.

As a thief with lofty ideals, Fan Liangji is naturally quite good at observing people and things.

After all, in their line of work, they can lack anything except vision and technique.

But when he used this technique, he didn't get any feedback from Xu Xing, as if this man was just a living fossil statue.

Therefore, Fan Liangji immediately knew that this person's origin was definitely extraordinary, and did not dare to treat Xu Xing as an ordinary child.

But Fan Liangji still didn't expect that even Li Ruohai, the notorious evil star, would follow him obediently.

Li Ruohai's behavior just now was actually quite cold and arrogant, but in the eyes of someone like Fan Liangji who was familiar with the temperament of "evil spirits", it was considered gentle.

Seeing Li Ruohai acting like this, Xu Xing sent a message to him and laughed softly:

"I didn't expect Miss Li to be so fierce and powerful, and she's really good at scaring people."

Li Ruohai raised his eyebrows again and said naturally:
"I don't want to hide my face. If I don't show it to others in this way, I will be asking for trouble."

When Xu Xing thought about his experience in the Northern Song Dynasty, he couldn't help but nodded and agreed with it.

Sometimes, having too outstanding appearance is not a good thing when traveling around the world. He was targeted by Yu Chuntong in Dali Kingdom, and later by Li Qiu Shui. Wasn’t it because of this face?
Looking at the two of them flirting with each other and looking like they admired each other, Fan Liangji felt it was extremely strange, but he didn't dare to say anything. He just kept muttering to himself.

——This "evil spirit" is indeed worthy of the word "evil". Its actions are beyond common sense. It actually likes this...

However, after looking at Xu Xing's face again, Fan Liangji had to admit that the "evil spirit" did have a good vision.

In terms of appearance, this little brother is no less beautiful than the evil spirit known as "the most beautiful woman in the world". In time, he will surely become a suave and handsome young man.

With such an unfathomable demeanor, could he be some great master of the Huajian School who has achieved rejuvenation?

After Fan Liangji thought for a while, he saw more and more people around him, so he couldn't help but bow and said sincerely:
"It was my fault for being reckless today and ruining your mood. Brother Xu, Miss Li, if you are willing to honor me, why don't you follow me to Jinguan City and I will prepare a banquet for you two as an apology?"

Hearing the word "little brother", Li Ruohai raised his head again and glanced at Fan Liangji imperceptibly. The young man immediately felt a chill coming out of his back.

Xu Xing suddenly jumped up, stood on the bench, patted Li Ruohai on the shoulder, and said with a relaxed smile:

"Brother Fan is so sincere, what does Miss Li say?"

Li Ruohai was actually quite interested in the battle between East Island and West City mentioned by Fan Liangji. After all, she and Xu Xing had already made a plan to go to East Island to see the "Formless Divine Needle" and a number of unique skills.

Few people knew that this "evil spirit" who seemed to be aimless and only seeking challenges from strong men would actually collect intelligence before every battle and make adequate preparations and fallback plans to ensure safety.

She knew that she was acting alone, and if anything went wrong, no one would come to help her.

At this moment, although Li Ruohai still maintains this habit, his original intention has changed.

In addition to considering herself, she also had a greater sense of responsibility in her heart not wanting to implicate her companions.

For Li Ruohai, who once raised his younger brother and wandered around the world, this was an experience that was not unfamiliar but had been away for a long time.

Therefore, once there is someone who needs care, she will be more meticulous than when she is fighting alone and will never miss any information.

When Fan Liangji saw Li Ruohai acting like this, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He walked to the front very politely, placed a heavy money bag on the table, and paid for the tea for the two of them.

After Li Ruohai came out of the plank road, he took the lead and turned into a streak of fire, carrying thick white smoke and a popping sound like frying beans, and flew across the sky.

Although she had to seek support from mountains and trees every few dozen feet, to ordinary people, such body movements were no different from flying in the air.

Fan Liangji followed behind her, keeping a distance of about ten feet from her.

This "lone thief" who is not yet on the blacklist has his entire body filled with energy, yet his clothes stick to his skin. He looks like a wisp of straight smoke, sweeping forward with almost no need for any force, and his figure is graceful.

Looking at the bright and beautiful, but even sharper slender figure in front of him, Fan Liangji couldn't help but show a look of shock.

He has recognized that what Li Ruohai is now displaying is the power of the void realm.

Although he had heard that this "evil spirit" was extremely talented, Fan Liangji couldn't help feeling a little frustrated when he saw that she could condense the void realm and achieve the status of a grandmaster at such a young age.

But this feeling of frustration and surprise was not as strong as he had imagined, because there was someone beside Fan Liangji who was even more worthy of his frustration and shock.

Every time Fan Liangji moved forward a certain distance, he would turn his head and look at Xu Xing with a strange expression on his face. He could not help but mutter:

"What a beautiful martial art..."

It was because Xu Xing's "lightness" was so "light" that Fan Liangji had never seen before. Every step this little kid took was like a mountain colliding with another mountain.

Huge and dull vibrations continued, rumbling and booming, like the sound of thunder rolling and exploding, or as if deep in the earth, there was a long-dormant old dragon, turning over its huge body that stretched for thousands of miles.

Looking at his light Kung Fu which had no technical content and was just pure "brick-flying force", Fan Liangji, a master of light Kung Fu in the world, was really speechless.

Although Fan Liangji had thought that this little kid might be a hidden master who had even regained his youth, he had never expected that Xu Xing's slight "reveal" would be so amazing.

Hearing this, Xu Xing jumped up again, his body level with Fan Liangji who was several feet off the ground. He gave Fan Liangji a thumbs up and praised:

"Brother Fan has good eyesight. As the saying goes, when Qinggong is practiced to the extreme, it is to make light things seem heavy. You can see the essence of it, which means you have extraordinary talent."

Hearing the little kid's advanced and even condescending praise, Fan Liangji found it ridiculous.

But deep in his heart, he couldn't suppress a feeling of joy.

It seemed that being praised by this person was a supreme honor for him. This feeling even reminded Fan Liangji of his taciturn master.

Xu Xing came to his side and asked with a smile:
"Brother Fan was quite generous just now, unlike the thief I know."

Fan Liangji waved his hands and sighed:
"There was once an old senior from the Daozi Sect who taught me that there is a code of conduct for thieves. Although thieves are not bound by conventional etiquette, they must also be kind, righteous, wise and courageous. I have always remembered this and dare not forget it.

Hey, I'm not afraid of being laughed at by Brother Xu. If I hadn't met him, I might still be a loner and a thief leader who would never become a great leader."

"Oh? There is such a saying?"

Xu Xing said "Oh", feeling a little curious.

Fan Liang's eyes showed some reminiscence, and his tone became ethereal, as if he had traveled through time. He imitated the man's tone and talked eloquently:
"To be able to guess what is hidden in a room without seeing it, to know what can be robbed and what cannot be robbed, this is wisdom, and it is a great wisdom that concerns life and death. To lead the way in a robbery is naturally courage, and to be the last one to escape is righteousness. To ask for money and not to hurt anyone is trustworthiness.

As for benevolence, if you can make all the brothers satisfied when you divide up the property after returning home, isn't this also benevolence?"

"A robber... sounds simple, but I have never heard of anyone who can become a robber without possessing the five virtues of benevolence, justice, wisdom, courage and trustworthiness!"

After Fan Liangji spoke a lot of words in a very eloquent manner, he bowed to the horizon, his eyes showing some reverence, and sighed:
"That old senior is the real thief with his own code of conduct, the greatest thief of all."

When Xu Xing heard this explanation, he also laughed.

"What a great thief who has his own moral code. Interesting. If I have the chance, I would really like to meet this extraordinary man."

Fan Liangji also nodded and said yearningly:
"To be honest, I also want to see him again."

After talking about this, the relationship between the two became much closer.

Fan Liangji also discovered that although this little kid seemed to come from a noble family, he was extremely approachable, had great ambitions, and his words and deeds were even more astonishing. He couldn't help but have a great liking for him.

Xu Xing also felt that although Fan Liangji was young, his speech and behavior were sophisticated and mature. It was obvious that he had been working in the market since he was a child and was quite worldly-wise. He was a wonderful person.

The two chatted and laughed, causing Li Ruohai in front to slow down her pace. Although she didn't say much, she listened quite seriously.

The distance from Jianmen Plank Road to Jinguan City is about several hundred miles, but for the three of them, even if they are not running at full speed, these hundreds of miles are nothing.

At noon that day, the three of them arrived at Jinguan City, where they saw a ten-mile-long thoroughfare crisscrossed with people coming and going, bustling with people. The city was bustling with activity.

Fan Liangji had obviously lived in Shu for a long time and was very familiar with the customs and landscape of this city. As soon as they entered the city gate, he led the two to the largest restaurant in the city.

But after walking for a while, I saw that this wide and flat road was very congested and packed with pedestrians.

The vendors along the street didn't even bother to take care of their own stalls. They stood up, stood on tiptoe, and stretched their necks to find out what was going on.

People formed a big circle, exclaimed and whispered to each other, and it was obvious that they were a group of performers.

In this world, performing martial arts in the streets is not uncommon.

After all, although most of the masters have been recruited by the leading forces, the average level is still there, and there are rare treasures coming from the "outside world".

Therefore, the warriors in this world can perform more tricks than those in the Northern Song Dynasty.

However, it is not uncommon for people to perform martial arts, but it is very rare to see monkeys boxing in a very methodical and methodical manner.

In the crowd, there was a golden-haired monkey about a foot tall, who was in high spirits, clasped his fists in all directions, and punched slowly while stepping on the steps. His whole body was bulging with lumps of tendon meat, and he looked very powerful and imposing.

Next to the monkey, there was an ugly-looking but majestic young man playing the sword.

Every time he flicked his fingers and flicked the sword, the sword would produce a completely different sound, which could be faint, low and gentle, or high and vast like a dragon hidden in the clouds, or deep and powerful, making one's blood boil.

In his hand, this long sword with its scabbard was like a unique musical instrument that could produce the most beautiful sounds in the world.

The monkey's boxing skills can also change with the sound, evolving into all kinds of completely different artistic conceptions. Although they do not contain much power, they can still shock experts.

Therefore, the iron plate beside the two men was already filled with copper coins, and even a few pieces of silver, piled up into a small mountain.

Xu Xing recognized them immediately. They were the man and the monkey that he had seen in the forest.
When he was in the world of the Ming Dynasty, in order to practice the Twelve Forms of Mind, he had gone deep into the mountains and forests and carefully observed the expressions and movements of these animals, naturally including monkeys.

If not, he would not have been able to practice the Mountain Moving Fist and the later Mountain Moving True Form and the Fighting and Victorious Buddha Form.

However, even Xu Xing, a master of pictographic boxing, had never thought of training a monkey to practice boxing, and to practice it so well.

He could even feel that the monkey's body was filled with a burning true energy. Although the nature of this true energy was not as violent as the wedding dress true energy, it was more vigorous, just like one was an erupting mountain fire and the other was the shining sun.

Who on earth could train such a monkey?
Fan Liangji just took a look at the monkey and his expression changed. He quickly stepped forward and waved at the monkey excitedly.

The monkey also noticed him, and his originally dull eyes suddenly emitted a sharp light about an inch long.

It didn't even bother to throw punches, but suddenly fell to the ground on all fours, turned its head, bared its teeth and barked at the sword-playing boy.

The young man noticed Fan Liangji in the crowd, stopped drawing his sword, jumped up, clasped his fists towards everyone, said a few polite words, and then began to pack up his stall.

Everyone knew that this young man was extraordinary and that he was performing here just for entertainment. Without saying much, they dispersed in groups of three or two.

After everyone had left, the young man tied the sword back to his waist, picked up the plate on the ground with his left hand, grabbed the monkey by the scruff of the neck with his right hand, and walked over steadily.

But he had come for Fan Liangji, and when he saw Xu Xing, he couldn't help but open his eyes wide and exclaimed:

"It's you!"
