Eternal Sword

Chapter 122: Third-grade Meridian Opening
"Li Yan, have you recovered from your injury?"

When Huo Zinan saw this scene, he seemed to understand something and let out a light cry.

The guards just now were all wearing armor, but Li Yan's internal force was able to penetrate the armor and shock them all to death. His power is evident!
Split the air palm!
The skinny old man who was originally behind Huo Zinan narrowed his eyes, stood in front of Huo Zinan, and said in a deep voice: "Young Master, be careful, this person is using the split palm, the palm power is very strong, I am afraid that he has opened up the meridians!"

Open up the meridians!
Huo Zinan's heart trembled.

The third level of opening meridians refers to the internal energy opening up the eight extraordinary meridians one by one.

Could it be that Li Yan is a third-rank warrior?
In an instant, Huo Zinan understood many things.

His second brother was once engaged to Li Junqing, but before they got married, he was severely beaten.

At that time, my second brother was hit by a palm strike, and his internal force shattered his internal organs. He wailed at home for a few days and then died.

The people of the Huo family once suspected that there was some fourth-rank master around Li Yan, but they never thought about Li Yan himself.

Because when Li Yan first arrived in Wu'an County, he was already in a sick state. He had suffered internal injuries and was unable to use his internal strength, making him no different from a sixth-rank warrior.

It is also because of this that they can use Han Lang to take away the military power from Li Yan.

"Li Yan, you have been faking an injury from the beginning to the end. You are so cunning and scheming!"

Huo Zinan said sternly.

"Ah……"

Li Yan smiled faintly and said, "If I hadn't shown weakness and kept giving in, I'm afraid that your Huo family would have been wiped out in my first year in Wu'an County!"

The Li family are all outsiders who have just arrived. They have long heard of the incredible power of Marquis Wu'an, so naturally they dare not confront him head-on.

Even a strong dragon finds it difficult to suppress a local snake.

What's more, the Li family is not considered a powerful family in Longxi.

That's why Li Yan concealed his cultivation level and pretended to be injured to show weakness.

Even his own children are unaware of his level of cultivation!

Even though the Huo family used Han Lang to share power, he still chose to make concessions again and again so as not to arouse too much hostility from the other party.

It was not until the Huo family forced a marriage that Li Yan began to secretly plan and build up his power to find a way out for the Li family.

Huo Zinan asked again: "So, you killed my second brother!"

"Not bad!"

Li Yan admitted it directly.

Now that things have come to this, there is no need to hide anything. Success or failure depends entirely on tonight.

Li Yan sneered and said, "Huo Er is a well-known playboy in Wu'an County. He bullies others and does evil things by taking advantage of his power. He is simply a scoundrel who does all kinds of evil!"

"For the sake of the Li family, I can be patient and give in, but you cannot bully my daughter, Li Yan! I, Li Yan, will never allow Jun Qing's life to be ruined by a bastard like Huo Er!"

"Good, good, good."

Huo Zinan nodded repeatedly and said, "If you are willing to admit it, then it couldn't be better. You have four sons and one daughter, I will make them suffer all the pain in the world, and make their lives worse than death!"

Li Yan ignored Huo Zinan's threat. At this point, such a threat was too naive.

No matter who wins, the other party will not have an easy time!
Li Yan looked at the skinny old man next to Huo Zinan and said sarcastically, "The famous 'Iron Finger' Wu Cheng was once a well-known figure. I didn't expect that he would be in the Huo family and take orders from a junior."

"Learn the arts of literature and martial arts, and sell them to the emperor's family."

Wu Cheng said calmly: "After so many years, the Jianghu of the past is long gone."

Li Yan said: "Even if the martial arts world is gone, morality still exists! You followed Huo Er and allowed him to do whatever he wanted, and even protected him several times. You are helping the tiger and aiding the tyrant to commit atrocities!"

Wu Cheng was silent.

In the underworld, people like Huo Er are the most despicable.

Decades ago, he never thought that one day he would protect such a person.

But people are in the world, and they can't help themselves.

Wu Cheng avoided Li Yan's words and said, "At that time, you injured Mr. Huo with your palm strike, but you also hit me with a finger. It's impossible that you didn't get hurt."

"good."

Li Yan said: "When I first came to Wu'an County, I did conceal my cultivation level and I did fake an injury. But later, after I killed Huo Er, you hit me with a finger, and my meridians were damaged. It took several years to heal."

"It was not until a few months ago that I got the help of a magical medicine and was able to recover. And it turned out to be a blessing in disguise. I broke through in one fell swoop and entered the third level of Tongmai!"

If not for this, Li Yanzhen might not dare to face hundreds of elite soldiers of the Huo family alone.

"So what about the third grade?"

Wu Cheng shook his head and said, "You have just entered the third level, and you can only open up one meridian at most, but I have already opened up six meridians."

"But you are old."

Li Yan did not give in at all and said, "Your energy and blood have already declined at your age, and your fighting power is not as good as before. If you cannot open up your Ren and Du meridians in the future, your death is not far away!"

These words hit Wu Cheng's sore spot and his expression changed.

"Uncle Wu, don't bother with him, kill him!"

Huo Zinan shouted softly.

Wu Cheng took a breath and quickly regained his composure. His skinny figure leaped forward and in the blink of an eye he was in front of Li Yan. He stretched out a finger and covered several major acupoints around Li Yan!

While Wu Cheng's finger was still in mid-air, it began to swell and become engorged with blood, turning blue-black and looking hideous and terrifying.

Li Yan did not dodge or evade. He gathered his energy and used his internal strength to chop down with a palm strike.

boom!
When their fingers and palms collided, both of them were shocked.

Li Yan took five steps back.

Wu Cheng just took a step back, but his body shook slightly and he seemed unstable.

In this fight between the two, it seemed that Wu Cheng had the upper hand, but both of them knew in their hearts that if the fight continued like this, Wu Cheng would be the first to be exhausted and defeated!

"Let's go together. There's no need to fight him alone!"

Huo Zinan had a sharp eye and saw that Wu Cheng had not gained any advantage, so he raised his arm and called out.

The Huo family has not only a third-grade warrior, but also a fourth-grade warrior and six fifth-grade warriors!

If everyone rushes forward, Li Yan will definitely be defeated!
Bang bang bang!
Li Yan and Wu Cheng exchanged several moves in succession, and the other masters had already attacked from both sides.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Li Yan moved and fled outside.

"Don't let him get away!"

Huo Zinan shouted loudly, commanding the Huo family's elite troops to surround and hunt down the enemy.

boom!boom!
Li Yan attacked continuously, unleashing a palm strike in the air.

After opening up a meridian in the arm, the Splitting Palm can be considered to be fully developed. With the help of the internal energy, it can reach the point of injuring people from a distance! The weapons in the hands of several elite members of the Huo family were knocked away by Li Yan with a few palms in the air before they even touched him!

At the third level, even if one only opens up one meridian, one can emit internal energy externally, which will significantly increase combat power.

Ordinary warriors can't stop it at all.

Of course, Li Yan didn't dare to stay there.

Once he gets entangled with the people around him and is surrounded by several masters including Wu Cheng, it will be difficult for him to escape.

Li Yan retreated towards Chen Tang's residence while fighting.

He and Chen Tang have already bought enough time.

If nothing unexpected happens, Li Boxiong and others should have succeeded!

……

Qinglong Division.

"Go back to Weiwei Hall and wait for me."

Cai Yin said, "I'll go tell Old Tan."

Wei Qun said in a deep voice: "Tou Cai, we will go with you!"

"Need not."

Cai Yin waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "What are we going to do with so many people going there together? Are we going to fight?"

"But, I'm worried..."

Wei Qun hesitated to speak.

"fine."

Cai Yin said: "I just complained a few words and vented my anger to him. Even if he really disagreed, I would still go to help. At worst, I would just quit Qinglong Division!"

"Tou Cai, if you don't do it, we won't be in Qinglong Division anymore."

"Caitou, we will follow you!"

"Yes, you were the one who brought us in. If you want to leave, you have to take us with you!"

Everyone said one after another.

"Row!"

Cai Yin was also somewhat moved, and said: "If we really have to leave, we brothers will leave together. With our abilities, even if we have to wander around in the underworld in the future, we can still make a name for ourselves!"

……

Colonel's Palace.

Under the guidance of the Qinglong Guards, Song Mu, the master of Xuantian Temple, came to the courtyard outside and saw Tan Wujiu just put on his clothes and walked out of the bedroom wearing a cloak.

As the door opened and closed, I could vaguely see a lotus-like jade arm and a few touches of snow-white.

Song Mu glanced at the bedroom meaningfully, and said with a half-smile, "Wu'an County is so lively tonight, and Lord Tan is in such a good mood. I hope I didn't disturb him by coming here this time?"

"Master Song is joking."

Tan Wujiu looked calm and said, "No matter how lively it is tonight, it has nothing to do with you and me. The overall situation has already been determined. In this case, it is better to rest early and find a woman to have fun."

When mentioning this, a hint of gloom flashed in the depths of Song Mu's eyes.

He had been completely depressed ever since the shock he received that day.

"I am a little nervous."

Song Mu thought of what happened that night and said hesitantly, "There won't be any changes tonight, right?"

"will not."

Tan Wujiu said: "Perhaps the Li family can have some resistance, and perhaps the Suzaku Guard can hold on for a while longer. The worst possibility is that Wu'an County will be controlled by the Li family, but so what?"

"The Black Water Nation has already dispatched its troops. Soon the army will cross the Three Thousand Snow Ridges and arrive at Wu'an County."

"With such a small number of soldiers in Wu'an County, how can we defend it?"

Song Mu nodded and said, "That's right."

In the bedroom not far away, Qin Xiaomei stood there alone, wearing only a thin gauze, through which her body was vaguely visible.

She looked at the back of the man in the courtyard through the gap in the window, and a hint of sarcasm flashed in her eyes.

She knew that Tan Wujiu had no feelings for her.

Calling her over was just to use her as a tool to vent his desires.

She didn't dare to resist.

Everyone knows that she is a fickle, coquettish and wanton woman. What is there to resist?

Qin Xiaomei lowered her head, admiring her almost perfect curves, and suddenly smiled at herself.

In the Qinglong Division, she is the Weiwei.

But she knew that everyone looked down on her.

No.

Not everyone.

In Qinglongsi, there was one person who never looked at her with contempt.

Just at this moment, there was a quarrel outside, and it seemed that someone broke in!

Qin Xiaomei frowned and looked over.

This is the captain's residence. Who dares to enter without permission?
The next moment, she saw the man.

Cai Yin.

The man who seemed to never have enough to eat, was careless and foul-mouthed.

A barely perceptible tenderness flashed in the depths of Qin Xiaomei's eyes.

But the next moment, her face changed and she looked outside nervously.

Cai Yin was in a bad mood.

It seems that he had an argument with Tan Wujiu!

She rarely saw Cai Yin so angry, especially towards Tan Wujiu.
