From the Ming Dynasty, we will conquer the world

Xu Xing stood at the bow, with his hands behind his back, his clothes fluttering, and he looked relaxed.

He did not seem to be sailing in a storm, on turbulent waves or among countless reefs. Rather, he seemed to be riding a bamboo raft on a calm lake, quietly enjoying the spring scenery.

Li Ruohai sat cross-legged in the boat with his eyes closed, as if he had become one with the spear in his arms. He did not listen or see, but perceived purely with his mind.

Within a radius of thirty feet, whether it was the wind and waves on the river or the undercurrents and reefs on the water, they were all reflected in her mind without omission, making it convenient for the girl to control the direction.

He walked slowly and gazed at the distant mountains for a while, then leaned over and lay on the bow of the boat. His two wide sleeves rose and fell with the waves, changing into various shapes, like overlapping mountains or flowing clouds.

As he played with the water with his sleeves, his eyes sparkled with a passion that was pure and almost innocent.

Li Ruohai was concentrating on steering the boat, so he could naturally sense Xu Xing's playful behavior.

She opened her eyes, looked at the back full of childishness and playfulness, couldn't help but sigh, and a sincere feeling of powerlessness surged in her heart.

When talking about martial arts, Xu Xing's confident attitude that radiated from the inside out, as well as his extensive knowledge, made Li Ruohai sincerely believe that he must be a unique martial arts master.

Sometimes, some of Xu Xing's actions made Li Ruohai doubt:
——Is this person deliberately doing these behaviors that are consistent with his child's identity in order to disguise himself, or is he really a person with a childlike heart who likes to play?
But more often than not, Li Ruohai felt that he was a traveler who was experienced, knowledgeable about the world, and had traveled thousands of miles.

The most commendable thing is that although he has so many experiences, he has not become numb or bored at all. Instead, he has become more and more passionate about life, living, and even the entire world.

This kind of love is a feeling that comes from the bottom of his heart and is full of extraordinary infectiousness.

Even a man like Li Ruohai, who has a heart as hard as iron and is determined to reach the pinnacle of martial arts, standing next to him, sometimes couldn't help but doubt whether he was on the right path.

While playing with the waves, Xu Xing raised his head and looked at the mountains in the distance submerged in the rain. He was in high spirits and said with emotion:
"I have never seen such heavy rain in the previous visits to the Three Gorges. I am lucky enough to see it now. It is also thanks to Miss Li."

Li Ruohai didn't say anything, but concentrated on controlling the boat.

For a girl who was used to traveling the world alone, this kind of bad weather was not a sight worth appreciating at all, but a complete trouble.

She just wanted to reach her destination as quickly as possible and then go ashore to practice.

Seeing her like this, Xu Xing just shook his head and felt emotional.

This girl is too impatient.

After a while, he suddenly uttered "hmm", turned around, and on his face, which was still chubby and had not grown up yet, an interested and mysterious smile appeared.

"Miss Li, please stop the boat for a while."

Although Li Ruohai felt a little impatient, he still did as he was told. He lightly tapped the bottom of the boat with the butt of his gun. The boat trembled and then stabilized in the turbulent river, without moving or shaking.

"What did you find?"

Xu Xing turned back and continued to lie on the bow, playing with the waves, answering the question irrelevantly:

"Can you fish?"

Li Ruohai answered simply:

"will not."

Although the girl was not impatient, she valued time very much and naturally would not engage in recreational activities such as fishing that required a lot of time.

Xu Xing didn't care. He just looked ahead at the surging waves, narrowed his eyes, and said slowly:

"That's just right. I'll teach you. We don't have any ready-made tools right now. If we want to catch big fish, we have to wait for the bait to come.

There is no need to use Qi to maintain it, just let the boat go downstream, a little bumpy, it's more natural."

Li Ruohai was now quite familiar with Xu Xing's speaking style. When he heard him say this, he sensed a malicious tone and was a little surprised.

"Is there any real gain?"

Xu Xing raised his hand, shook off the water on his sleeves, rubbed his palms, and said with some dissatisfaction:

"Miss Li, you didn't think I was really playing in the water just now, did you?"

Li Ruohai was silent.

After Xu Xing turned his head and looked at her for a few seconds, the girl turned her face away as usual and nodded to show her acknowledgment.

Xu Xing did not look away.

Li Ruohai insisted on turning his face away.

After looking at it for a while, Xu Xing said quietly:
"I just realized now, Miss Li, your profile is also quite beautiful."

"you!"

Li Ruohai finally couldn't hold back his anger anymore. His eyes widened, his face twitched, and he became angry and embarrassed.

Xu Xing couldn't help but burst into laughter, and immediately turned around, looking at the waterway in front of him, without looking away, and said in a deep voice:
"We're almost there, be serious."

Seriously?
Li Ruohai laughed angrily, and clenched the gun barrel tightly with both hands. His joints were stretched white, showing how much force he used, and there was even a crackling sound.

On that beautiful face that was flawless and white like jade, there were two spots of rich red. This was not shyness, but the color of blood that came from life.

Relying on his extraordinary spiritual cultivation, Xu Xing could feel the changes in Li Ruohai's expression even without looking back, and even take in the girl's current face.

For a moment, a strange feeling suddenly arose in his heart.

——Miss Li in this state is quite funny...oh no, it's quite cute.

Thinking of this, Xu Xing felt like laughing.

But when he felt the cold gaze coming from behind him, he forced back his smile and pretended to be focused and attentive.

With his immortal-level body control, his acting skills were naturally several orders of magnitude higher than Li Ruohai's, making it impossible for the girl to find any flaws.

After a while, Xu Xing floated on the water again and asked loudly:

"Miss Li, I think this place is good and suitable for fishing. Do you want me to teach you how to make a nest and put bait?"

Although Li Ruohai was still angry and didn't want to say a word to him, he also understood that they had arrived at the place and the business was urgent, so he suppressed his anger and said calmly:

"In that case, please show me, Brother Xu."

Xu Xing laughed and clapped his hands, saying:
"Easy to say, easy to say."

The two of them were chatting and laughing on the boat, but Zhong Zhongyou under the water was having a hard time holding his breath.

Zhong Zhongyou sensed something when the small boat appeared three miles away.

Although there was nothing unusual about the ship in terms of speed and fluctuations, anyone who dared to sail in this kind of weather must be no ordinary person.

After all, Zhong Zhongyou is an old hand in this world, and he knows that there are experts lurking nearby, so he naturally won't cause any trouble.

Therefore, he simply concealed Gu Ningqing's breath and hid himself, waiting for the ship to pass before bringing Gu Ningqing ashore.

However, although Zhong Zhongyou did not dare to release his spiritual sense to perceive a large area at this time, he could still understand the conversation between Xu Xing and Li Ruohai with his simple hearing.

As soon as Xu Xing opened his mouth, the old master couldn't help but complain in his heart that fishing in the middle of the river in this kind of weather and current speed was really a fantasy.

However, upon hearing this crisp, obviously underdeveloped child's voice, Zhong Zhongyou couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Then, after hearing Li Ruohai's unique voice that was clear, pleasant, and powerful, Zhong Zhongyou suddenly opened his eyes wide and couldn't help but look towards the river.

"The art of observing people and things" is a compulsory course for the disciples of the Yingui Sect. As Zhong Zhongyou is a person who is guaranteed to be ranked third and is hoping to be ranked second in the Yingui Sect, he is naturally proficient in this art.

Therefore, as soon as he heard Li Ruohai's voice, he knew that this was a superior cauldron that was in no way inferior to Gu Ningqing's, and might even be better.

At this moment, Zhong Zhongyou noticed that after hearing this voice, Gu Ningqing's eyes widened unconsciously, and a kind of inexplicable fear appeared in their eyes.

Gu Ningqing could naturally tell that the owner of that voice was Li Ruohai, the man who kept her awake at night and thought about her day and night, and whom she was willing to run out of the Shuangxiu Mansion to see.

"Ok?"

Zhong Zhongyou grabbed Gu Ningqing and brought her to his side. He looked down at the girl's beautiful face full of exotic charm, raised the corner of his mouth, and said with a wicked smile:
"Why, young lady, do you know that beautiful lady above?"

Gu Ningqing's mouth was now bound by Zhong Zhongyou's innate energy, making it difficult for her to speak.

If she could meet this hero in normal times, she would be overwhelmed with emotion and even shed tears.

But at this moment, she absolutely did not want Li Ruohai to experience the same fate as herself, so she just shook her head in horror.

The girl's beautiful hair spread out in the water like spreading water grass, and her pale and delicate face looked even more pitiful.

But the more Gu Ningqing acted like this, the more Zhong Zhongyou was sure of the relationship between them, and laughed heartily:
"My little beauty, meeting you is such a blessing to me!

I will go up right now and capture the little girl up there as well. I want her to be your sister, how about that?"

The harder Gu Ningqing shook her head in the water, the happier Zhong Zhongyou laughed, no longer trying to hide his emotions.

The laughter shook the water, creating a huge tide in the water and causing turbulent waves on the river surface again.

The reason why Zhong Zhongyou dared to be so presumptuous was actually very simple.

Because he knew very well that with Gu Ningqing's background, it was impossible for her to make friends with anyone who could threaten her.

If this little beauty really knew the man on the boat, then Zhong Zhongyou could naturally take action without any scruples.

But at this moment, a long sigh spread throughout the entire riverbed.

Within a radius of fifty feet, the originally turbulent water surface suddenly calmed down and became like a smooth mirror.

"Alas, I wanted to go fishing leisurely, but I met someone like you, which ruined my mood."

Zhong Zhongyou turned around suddenly and saw a little child floating behind him, with his arms folded across his chest, looking him up and down.

Although the child looked only eight or nine years old, he was so handsome that he did not look like an ordinary person. Instead, he looked like a monster formed by the spirits of water, or a transcendental being like the River God or the He Bo.

Such appearance and demeanor are rarely seen in Zhong Zhongyou's life.

And the look in this child's eyes was something Zhong Zhongyou had never seen before.

Zhong Zhongyou had a glorious and prominent life, and naturally he had also attracted a lot of attention from others.

The looks of these people were filled with awe, flattery, fear, anger, disdain, or indifference, but Zhong Zhongyou had never seen such looks before.

It was as if he was not looking at a notorious master of the demon sect, or even a living person, but rather at a fish on a chopping board, without any other emotion.

"Old senior, could you please explain to me what 'sisters' mean?"

Zhong Zhongyou was horrified, but he still suppressed his shock and said in a deep voice:
"May I ask where this friend's immortal land is? I am Zhong Zhongyou from the Yin Gui Sect. Can you help me?"

Faced with such a strange character, even though Zhong Zhongyou was a master of martial arts, he couldn't help but feel scared, and even did not hesitate to bring up the name of the "Yingui Sect".

Generally speaking, with his strength and the fame of the Yingui Sect, the things in this world that he cannot handle can be counted on one hand.

After all, even someone as skilled in martial arts and as powerful as Pang Ban had to be wary of Li Gong, the "bloody hand" behind the Yingui Sect, and so he did not kill Zhong Zhongyou.

It’s a pity that Zhong Zhongyou encountered that one in a billion exception today.

Xu Xing exclaimed:
"Are you the 'evil Buddha' who lost to Pang Ban and lost the power to lead the Demon Sect?"

When Zhong Zhongyou heard these words, the inexplicable fear in his heart immediately subsided by more than half, and he confirmed that the other party was not some kind of ghost or monster.

As long as he is a human, no matter how high his martial arts skills are, given Zhong Zhongyou's status, position, knowledge and experience, he would not be so scared that he dare not speak.

However, when he just forced a smile and was about to reply, he saw Xu Xing shook his head, looked at him with disdain, and sneered:
"Friend? Are you worthy enough?"

After he finished speaking, Xu Xing flicked his sleeves and a powerful force beyond Zhong Zhongyou's imagination surged out from his sleeves.

The surrounding river water immediately spread out to both sides, and the river surface was split into two, rolling up two waves and water walls several feet high.

If you look down from above, it looks like a huge invisible sword has fallen from the clouds and cut the entire river in half.

Zhong Zhongyou's eyes were furious and he held his hands in front of his chest. A mixture of black and purple demonic energy was surging and lingering around his body.

But even if he used all his strength to open the void realm force field, it was still difficult to resist. He flew thirty feet and directly hit the steep mountain wall by the river.

Boom boom boom boom! ! ! !

The sound of thunder shook the atmosphere, spread to both sides of the river, and stirred up the rain curtain in the sky, forming circles of ripples in the air that were visible to the naked eye. The vast river surface was also disturbed again, like an old dragon stirring up waves.

Li Ruohai was on the river and felt the vibration coming from the bottom of the water. He stood up suddenly, paused, and steadied the boat that was tossing and turning in the wind and waves.

Before she had time to look down, Xu Xing had already jumped out of the lake carrying a charming and beautiful woman and landed her in the boat.

Although this beauty's face was pale, her figure beneath her wet clothes was extremely beautiful and captivating.

Li Ruohai frowned unconsciously, but saw Xu Xing pointed the bow again, broke through the heavy wind curtain and rain curtain, stepped on the raging waves, and rushed straight to where Zhong Zhongyou was, leaving only one sentence:
"Miss Li, please take good care of her. I'll be back soon."

Li Ruohai stepped forward, hugged the beauty, looked at her face again, and said in surprise:

"Ningqing, why is it you?"

When Gu Ningqing was under the water, she was already frightened by Zhong Zhongyou and her mind was shaken and her soul was agitated. Now, when she saw the person she had been thinking about day and night, tears flowed from her eyes.

She couldn't help but stretch out her arms and wrap them around Li Ruohai's neck. She pressed her body tightly against the girl, tears welling up in her eyes, and she kept sobbing:

"Ruohai, it's really you, it's really you..."

The girl's coquettish voice was like clouds leaking out from between the mountains, soft and cottony, slowly spreading out, yet also implying a surge of emotions that were forced to be suppressed and difficult to relieve.

Li Ruohai felt the trembling coming from Gu Ningqing's body. He did not refuse the hug, nor did he speak immediately. Instead, he patted her back gently to comfort her.

After a long while, Gu Ningqing's mind finally calmed down. She opened her pair of blue eyes that looked like clear autumn water, looked directly into Li Ruohai's sharp eyes, and said affectionately:
"Ruohai, I finally found you."

Li Ruohai felt as if he were being pricked by needles when he was looked at by her undisguised fiery gaze.

The girl turned her face away somewhat awkwardly, straightened Gu Ningqing's body, and then asked with concern:

"Ningqing, why are you here?"

Gu Ningqing still stared at Li Ruohai and said quietly:
"Ruohai, Ningqing's feelings, don't you really know?"

Li Ruohai groaned, and for once he felt somewhat at a loss. His scalp felt tight, and he hesitated.
"Ningqing, I..."

Seeing that this elder sister, who usually behaved like a man, was actually so shy, Gu Ningqing just rolled her eyes and smiled slightly. She didn't ask any more questions, but answered Li Ruohai's doubts.

Li Ruohai and Gu Ningqing met each other in the martial arts world. At that time, Gu Ningqing had just left Shuangxiu Mansion. Although she had excellent martial arts, she was indifferent to worldly affairs and was innocent. She only loved Die Wu Shuang.

Seeing that the little girl was innocent and cute, Li Ruohai helped Gu Ningqing block several waves of thieves with ulterior motives, and protected her for a long distance.

But Li Ruohai didn't expect that during this period of time, Gu Ningqing actually developed feelings for her that went beyond ordinary sisterly love.

Gu Ningqing was a woman from the Western Regions with a passionate and unrestrained temperament. She did not shy away from this matter. Not only did she express her feelings openly, she also explained in detail the martial arts she practiced and her background.

Only then did Li Ruohai realize that Gu Ningqing was actually the heir of Shuangxiu Mansion, one of the most mysterious sects in the martial arts world.

Although the "Dual Cultivation Method" she learned was a supreme method that expatiated on the harmony of yin and yang, it had a rather peculiar restriction. That is, when practicing, one party had to have emotions but no desires, while the other party had to have desires but no emotions.

For men and women, this condition can be said to be extremely harsh, so Gu Ningqing wanted to find another way and practice Falun Dafa with Li Ruohai, a woman.

In Gu Ningqing's opinion, if they were both women, it would be easier to achieve this goal.

Moreover, Li Ruohai practiced the "Wedding Dress Magic" vigorously, and his yang energy was so strong and his true energy was so strong that he completely surpassed most of the male masters in this world. He was definitely an excellent partner for dual cultivation.

When Gu Ningqing said this, Li Ruohai's first reaction was not to reject her, but to look upon this young lady from a prominent family with admiration.

Li Ruohai never expected that Gu Ningqing, who seemed as childish as a big kid on weekdays, actually had such wonderful ideas in martial arts.

Fortunately, this thought only appeared in his mind for a moment, and Li Ruohai quickly broke free and righteously rejected Gu Ningqing's request.

The reason why Li Ruohai helped Gu Ningqing was because he once had a younger brother and didn't want to see such an innocent child like her drowned in the world. He treated Gu Ningqing as his own sister and had no such intention at all.

Therefore, in order to get rid of Gu Ningqing's entanglement, Li Ruohai sent her back to Shuangxiu Mansion, left a letter, and left without saying goodbye.

But after Gu Ningqing returned to Shuangxiu Mansion, she was still thinking about Li Ruohai.

She didn't know whether it was out of her genuine admiration or because of her practice of "Dual Cultivation Dafa".

But Gu Ningqing understood that if she could not overcome this obstacle, she would never be able to master the "Dual Cultivation Method" in this lifetime and accomplish the great cause of restoring the nation for her people.

Therefore, she chose to leave Shuangxiu Mansion and head to Central Plains again to look for the destined devil star that had haunted her dreams and that she could not forget.

It was also because of this that Gu Ningqing was discovered by the Yingui Sect and was hunted all the way. Fortunately, on the way, she met a Shaolin monk named Kong Le, which enabled her to escape the pursuit many times.

When Li Ruohai heard the name, he couldn't help but ask:
"If that's the case, where is this monk Kongluo now?" Gu Ningqing smiled, dragged out the last line of his voice, and said slowly:

"I used a trick to get the little monk away and asked him to seek help from the Buddhist masters in Shuzhong."

A hint of weariness emerged between her brows, as if she was very lazy. This weariness was like smoke, making people intoxicated, and mixed with a kind of weakness that made people feel pity.

Only then did Li Ruohai realize that this innocent and lovely little sister now seemed so depressed and melancholy, and was also more mature and more determined than before.

Li Ruohai certainly understood the reason, but he didn't know how to comfort her, so the girl could only purse her thin lips and say nothing. She suddenly missed the days of drinking with Xu Xing and others.

——Although they are both women, Li Ruohai still feels powerless when facing Gu Ningqing's straightforward feelings that are full of twists and turns and not shy about hiding them.

Gu Ningqing was obviously very familiar with Li Ruohai's temperament, and did not press him step by step. Instead, she turned around and looked in the direction where Xu Xing and Zhong Zhongyou left. She couldn't help but show a look of surprise and said in shock:
"Ruohai, who is that little brother just now? How could he make Zhong Zhongyou, the 'evil Buddha', flee in such a panic?"

Just now underwater, Gu Ningqing saw Xu Xing's face very clearly, and also saw how he blew Zhong Zhongyou away with just one sleeve.

However, Gu Ningqing had never heard of such a peerless master with such terrifying profound achievements and obvious physical features before. This could simply be said to be a fairy tale.

At the very least, Gu Ningqing could be sure that this person was definitely not a child of eight or nine years old as he appeared to be. He must be some famous old master who deliberately disguised himself.

Li Ruohai also looked in the direction where Xu Xing was going away, and just snorted, saying lightly:
"a friend."

"friend?"

Gu Ningqing chewed over these two words, uttered an "oh" meaningfully, half-narrowed her starry eyes, patted her chest with a smile, and acted as if she was still frightened.

"In that case, Ningqing really needs to get to know Ruohai, this overly magical friend."

When talking about the word "friend", Gu Ningqing accentuated her words, which made Li Ruohai feel inexplicably annoyed.

The girl turned around and took a close look at Gu Ningqing's charming and beautiful face, and the irritation in her heart became even more obvious.

Li Ruohai suddenly said:

"Ningqing, turn your face away, it will be fine in a moment."

Although Gu Ningqing didn't understand why, she still did as she was told. After a while, she heard Li Ruohai say coldly:
"Ningqing, your profile is still so beautiful."

Although Gu Ningqing could tell that Li Ruohai was in a bad mood, she couldn't help but smile when she received the praise from her lover. Her tiredness, weakness, and emotions all mixed into an unexpectedly gorgeous color, and she said sweetly:

"Ruohai, no matter how many times Ningqing hears this kind of words, she will never get tired of it."

Li Ruohai hummed, and did not reply. Instead, he looked towards the battlefield by the river and said calmly:

"Ningqing, let's go over and take a look."

Li Ruohai knew Xu Xing's condition very well. He knew that his injuries had not yet fully recovered. Even if he could gain the upper hand temporarily when fighting against Zhong Zhongyou, a world-famous old master, it did not mean that he could win.

Thinking of this, Li Ruohai mobilized his true energy and no longer had any cover. The prairie fire field opened up, and the boat shook, like an arrow shot from a bow, drawing a bright streak of fire on the surface of the river and rushing straight towards the mountain wall.

Gu Ningqing was in Li Ruohai's field, her eyes widened and she exclaimed:

"Ruohai, have you achieved the Void Realm?!"

After Gu Ningqing returned to Shuangxiu Mansion, she devoted herself to cultivation. Under the guidance of the Mansion Master, she was able to break through the threshold of "fixed state" and enter the "transformation state". This was also the reason why she dared to venture into the world alone.

This is because, apart from the "Empty Realm" masters who number only dozens, the "Transformation Realm" masters are already considered the top masters in the martial arts world and are treated as guests of honor wherever they go.

After all, for a warrior at the "transformation realm" to take the step to the "emptiness realm", it is even more difficult than going from the "nurturing realm" to the "transformation realm".

Don’t you see, even in the Demon Master Palace ruled by Pang Ban, there is only one real “Empty Realm” master, Li Chimei, available for dispatch.

Xue Chan was also able to enter the "Empty Realm" only after he inherited the "Great Vajra Power".

This fully illustrates how precious the Grandmaster of the Void Realm is. However, Li Ruohai is only in his teens, but he has already crossed this threshold and become one of the strongest people in the world? !
Although Gu Ningqing had always known that her beloved had extraordinary talent in martial arts, she was still shocked. She was even happier for Li Ruohai and said happily:
"Ruohai, it seems that you are getting closer and closer to your goal."

Li Ruohai, however, didn't think there was anything to be happy about.

After all, during these days of traveling with Xu Xing, she has deeply realized that the cultivation of the first level of the Void Realm is more of a burden than an achievement.

Moreover, even if we put aside Xu Xing, the old man pretending to be young whose real age is unknown, Li Ruohai has also met Lang Fanyun, a genuine swordsman genius, in the past few days, and he will not be proud of this.

To be honest, Xue Chan is also a young master of the Void Realm, and can be considered a genius of this level.

So, the girl didn't even turn her head, but just said lightly:

"It is thanks to that friend that I have been able to make such progress. Moreover, masters of the Void Realm who are my age are not rare in the world. However, as far as I know, there are only two of them."

Gu Ningqing knew Li Ruohai's character, so she naturally didn't think she was joking. She just nodded her head, as if thinking about something.

In fact, this girl, young lady, woman, whose heart is entirely devoted to Li Ruohai, doesn't care at all how many masters of the Void Realm there are at this age.

She was just thinking about the "friend" Li Ruohai mentioned.

Gu Ningqing knew that Li Ruohai had a younger brother who had passed away.

This younger brother is the only remaining softness and weakness in the heart of this always strong "evil spirit", and is also the key to Gu Ningqing's confidence in being able to influence her.

But Xu Xing's appearance made Gu Ningqing feel an unprecedented sense of crisis - could it be... really such a coincidence?

Thinking of this, Gu Ningqing's eyes became sharp, and he said slowly and leisurely:
"Ningqing has never heard of any person in the world who could be evaluated like this by Ruohai. When we meet later, Ningqing must thank this 'lifesaver' well."

If she had deliberately emphasized her tone just now with the intention of teasing Li Ruohai, then now she was really interested in this "friend" Li Ruohai mentioned.

Li Ruohai also understood the meaning of Gu Ningqing's words. She did not comment, but just nodded slightly, but the small boat under her feet exploded with a loud bang.

The whole boat seemed like a flying fish leaping out of the water, seeming to merge into the river, sky and water. The river breeze whistled past Gu Ningqing's ears, and the scenery on both sides of the river receded like fleeting shadows.

But the girl's eyes were only fixed on the tall figure standing alone at the bow of the boat, unmoving, affectionate and determined.

The boat drew an extremely graceful curve in the air and then fell straight towards the mountain wall.

Li Ruohai tapped the bottom of the boat again, and the whole person flew into the air. With one hand he held the spear diagonally, and with the other hand he grabbed Gu Ningqing's knee, picked up the girl's delicate body horizontally, and dropped her lightly to the ground.

She looked at the ravine under her feet that continued to extend forward, her eyes focused.

Gu Ningqing squinted her eyes like a little animal in her embrace, which was not very wide but extremely warm and full of security. She rubbed against her for several times before reluctantly putting down her legs and standing on the ground.

At this moment, the two suddenly heard an extremely shrill scream filled with infinite fear coming from afar.

"Pangban——!!!"

Li Ruohai had already prepared to fight this "magic master" in Jinguan City. Now he focused his eyes reflexively, tensed his body, and wanted to rush forward immediately.

But at this moment, she noticed that Gu Ningqing's face became even paler and her body trembled slightly. A hint of pity flashed across her eyes and she couldn't help but hesitate.

-

After hitting the mountain wall, Zhong Zhongyou did not stop. His body was pushed by the huge force and continued to move forward into the mountain.

The powerful energy surged like a tidal wave, crashing into his long gown one after another, crushing the rocks along the way into powder, and carving out a twenty-meter-long tunnel in the solid mountain wall.

Even so, Zhong Zhongyou still managed to keep himself safe and sound, and couldn't help but exclaimed:

"Great King Kong Power?! The person outside Jinguan City is indeed you!"

After realizing this, Zhong Zhongyou didn't dare to stay for a moment. He didn't even care about Gu Ningqing under the water. He used his body skills to escape into the distance.

He walked slowly like a shadow, chasing and killing him.

He stretched out one arm, and his soul and body were closely connected again. The true energy of thunder flowed through his body and merged with the "Vajra Power". Lightning flashed in his palm and thunder rumbled. There was a roar and vibration from the mountain wall, like the buzzing of Buddhist bells and bronze drums.

It is the Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound Seal.

Zhong Zhongyou didn't even turn his head, and his extremely pure demonic aura was fully activated, making a slight hissing sound, corroding the rock wall within five meters around him.

It was more like engulfment than erosion, and a cylindrical cavity suddenly appeared in the middle of the mountain, extending upward.

The thick soil, solid rocks, and the earth-related evil energy accumulated in them were as thin as a ball to him and collapsed at the first blow.

As the heavenly drum sounded and the thunder exploded, Zhong Zhongyou's body trembled violently and he vomited a mouthful of blood.

But the old man did not stop. In just a moment, he rushed out of the mountain wall and fled into the distance.

Although he realized that the man behind him had martial arts skills beyond his imagination, Zhong Zhongyou couldn't help but feel ecstatic in his heart - because he won the bet!
From the moment he recognized Xu Xing, Zhong Zhongyou had decided to use this battle strategy.

Because although he also felt a kind of extraordinary and cold aura from Xu Xing, he did not find the kind of domineering power that was unique to a half-step breaking level master, which could sweep the world with one move.

As long as he is not a master of that level, no matter how strong he is, even if he is the "Magic Master" Pang Ban, facing the Red Sun King Gasi Hanfei, even if he can defeat him, he will definitely not be able to avoid being injured.

Therefore, Zhong Zhongyou made the extremely bold choice to withstand Xu Xing's attack and try his best to escape. Facts have proved that his bet was indeed right.

Xu Xing now not only had the fire energy left by the Red Sun Dharma King, but also the wounds inflicted by Si Hanfei, as well as the internal injuries caused by the use of the "Dragon Elephant Prison".

With the combination of these three, even if Xu Xing used all his strength, the power of this "Heavenly Drum Thunder Sound Seal" was greatly reduced.

Although it was still heavy, it was definitely not unbearable for a person like Zhong Zhongyou. At most he would suffer some injuries, which would not affect his escape speed.

Even Xu Xing did not expect that Zhong Zhongyou's fighting will was so weak.

He also didn't expect that this person's magic field could be so flexible.

Xu Xing had fought against several Void Realm masters before. Although their skills and levels of cultivation were different, they had one thing in common, which was that their fields were all extremely solid.

This is also consistent with Xu Xing's understanding of the group of Void Realm Grandmasters. In his opinion, the Grandmasters of this world are extremely good at positional warfare and are also good at being "engineers" who build positions.

Since they are good at positional warfare, they inevitably have natural disadvantages in long-distance escape and medium-distance maneuvering.

The only one who is slightly different is Li Chimei, but now, the methods displayed by Zhong Zhongyou are even better than those of the still young Li Chimei.

His Demonic Field is more like a chariot that has been specially lightweighted rather than a battlefield. In terms of flexibility, it is unrivaled.

——Now it seems that the fact that this "evil Buddha" was able to escape from Pang Ban was not entirely due to the power behind him, but also due to some hard work.

This kind of magic technique which is completely different from the current martial arts really makes Xu Xing quite interested.

He also knew that with his current injuries, it would be difficult for him to catch up with Zhong Zhongyou with his physical body, so he simply let his spirit leave his body.

At this moment, Xu Xing did not use the "Han Zang Leiyun" energy, but instead urged himself to preserve that evil thought, transforming it into a ball of colorful turbid evil energy and pounced towards Zhong Zhongyou.

Zhong Zhongyou was running forward when he suddenly felt a gust of cold and biting wind whistling behind him, and a familiar, surging and mighty force was rushing towards his back.

The old man's scalp tightened, his hair and beard exploded, and his entire skin turned red as blood, which was a sign of extreme tension and fear.

He suddenly recalled that pale, cold night, and even more so the evil face that he would remember every time he woke up in the middle of the night. His old face twitched and he howled miserably:

"It's you, Pang Ban! You are a 'magic master', but you are so shameless that you want to plot against me!"

Xu Xing did not answer, but his spirit rushed faster.

He had already seen that, like the Red Sun Dharma King, Zhong Zhongyou had a deeply hidden evil thought in his body.

Moreover, this evil thought had already been planted and was deeply rooted in this person, making him a puppet of others without knowing it.

Thinking back to Zhong Zhongyou’s past battle records, it is obvious who this silent thought belongs to.

Hearing Zhong Zhongyou's screams, an extremely bright light of excitement also lit up in Xu Xing's soul, which was purely condensed from spirit.

Ever since he came to this world, he had always heard of the notorious reputation of the "magician", and the desire to fight was constantly accumulating in his heart.

Now that there was an opportunity, using Zhong Zhongyou as a carrier to temporarily fight against this magician of the heavenly way, Xu Xing naturally would not refuse.

Although he had acquired this evil thought, he only knew the "Four Doors Screen Method", a murderous and vicious magic skill. Recently, he also acquired the Mahakala appearance of the Red Sun Dharma King, which made this part of his characteristics more prominent.

Therefore, with one pounce, the lush vegetation around was immediately permeated with the murderous aura, and immediately turned yellow and withered, turning into desolate white dust and disintegrating on the ground.

Attracted by this evil thought, wisps of pure devil energy emanated from Zhong Zhongyou's seven orifices. His skin immediately became shriveled, and his blood and qi quickly dried up.

Xu Xing narrowed his eyes and exclaimed.

As far as he knew, this change did not seem to be any of the magic skills of the two sects or the six paths of the Demonic Sect, so he temporarily stopped and stopped around Zhong Zhongyou, observing carefully.

Zhong Zhongyou suddenly fell to the ground, holding his head in his hands, crying bitterly. After noticing Xu Xing's look, which showed no sympathy but instead interest, he screamed even more.

"Pangban! You, you, you are totally inhuman!"

At this moment, Zhong Zhongyou has already determined that Xu Xing is the incarnation of Pang Ban. After all, the only person in the world who can activate the demon seed in his body is Pang Ban.

He noticed Xu Xing's childlike appearance and suspected that this old devil's magic power had reached a higher level and he had completely regained his youth.

"Inhuman? Me?"

Thinking of what Zhong Zhongyou had just done, Xu Xing couldn't help but shook his head and laughed.

But at this moment, outside the forest, there was a deep and dull roar, full of demon-subduing majesty and unparalleled power.

"Pang Ban, with your status, you actually bully the younger generation in Shuang Xiu Mansion. Don't you really have no shame?!"

When Xu Xing heard the lion's roar that couldn't be more authentic, he knew that the person coming was a Buddhist. As soon as he finished speaking, two powerful palms came from outside the forest, attacking Xu Xing's soul.

He turned his body, and the murderous aura around him condensed and transformed into two extremely strong and fierce "General's Order" palm forces, which collided head-on with the two palm forces without giving in.

There was a loud explosion, and all the trees within a radius of fifty feet in the forest were destroyed.

The tree trunk broke first, and then was knocked into the air by the aftermath. The tree stumps rooted in the ground also rose up from the ground, colliding with rocks and soil, making even more violent noises.

But it was this lion's roar filled with Buddhist charm that temporarily suppressed the evil thoughts running through Zhong Zhongyou's body.

Taking advantage of the gap between Xu Xing and the Buddhist, the "evil Buddha"'s eyes flashed, and just like Li Chimei that day, he chose to self-destruct without hesitation, and then decisively abandoned half of his cultivation, turning into a long purple-black rainbow across the sky, and fled into the distance!

"Um?!"

Outside the forest, a well-proportioned monk, neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, suddenly withdrew his hand, looked towards the rainbow light shooting towards the horizon, a look of doubt and surprise emerged on his face.

He was just outside the forest when he heard someone calling Pang Ban's name and felt the strong demonic energy coming from the forest. He suspected that this "magic master" had already mastered the legendary "Dao Heart Demon Seeding Method" and was infecting others with the demon seed, so he attacked without hesitation.

But it was not until now that he recognized that the man who had just left was clearly the famous master in the Demon Sect, the "Evil Buddha" Zhong Zhongyou.

However, the monk had gathered all his life's strength in order to kill Pang Ban in one fell swoop, and it was difficult for him to raise his inner energy in a short period of time. He could only watch Zhong Zhongyou go away.

But it was precisely because of the appearance of Zhong Zhongyou that the monks became more certain that the man in the forest was indeed Pang Ban, because everyone knew that since the debut of this "magic master", almost no one under his command had survived.

The reason why it is "almost" is because of the exception of Zhong Zhongyou.

Now if we say that he has achieved Dafa through cultivation, it is only natural for him to come here to wipe out the only stain on his life.

Moreover, if it wasn't for the "magic master" in front of him, who else in the world could force the "evil Buddha" to willingly explode the area and escape? !
Thinking of this, the monk's face became more solemn. He took a few steps forward, blocked the other young monk, and stood ready to fight. He whispered:
"It's empty. When Pang Ban and I start fighting, you go first."

The young monk had handsome features, an upright figure and a dignified air. Upon hearing this, he looked somewhat anxious.

"But Ning Qing is still..."

The monk sighed:
"Foolish boy, if you should give up now, you still have hope for a good result."

Just as the two were talking, a very calm and deep voice suddenly sounded in the distance.

But anyone could sense that something was brewing in that calm, like thunder gathering in the clouds.

"Walk?"

As soon as the words fell, the devastated forest with broken trees, piles of earth and rocks suddenly began to shake like an earth-shaking movement again.

All the objects blocking the road were pushed apart to both sides by an invisible force, revealing an extremely straight long road.

At the end of the long path, a child with devilish fire in his eyes and long hair fluttering in the wind walked towards the two step by step.

With every step he took, the ground would tremble violently, forming deep ravines, and with his overwhelming force he created a scene of mountains collapsing and the earth splitting.

At this time, the sky and the earth were still dark. The steep and rugged peaks undulated in the rain and pierced through the dark clouds.

This was supposed to be an extremely magnificent scene, but at this moment, the steep peaks, the rain curtain, the heavy clouds, and even the world itself, seemed to have become the foil for this child.

In the eyes of the two monks, he looked like a peerless evil demon who was willing to carry the weight of the world and mountains on his back, fight his way out of the Nine Netherworlds, return to the human world, and forge a throne with his flesh and blood.

The two of them felt the arrogant and ferocious momentum, and their bodies tensed up unconsciously. They felt as if they were falling into an icy cave, and their eyes were filled with confusion and shock.

——When did Pang Ban become like this?
The demon's gaze was as solid as substance, like two sharp swords, sweeping across the two monks' faces inch by inch. His tone was so cold that everyone could feel his suppressed anger.

"You ruined my business, where do you want to go?!" (End of this chapter)
