Martial Arts World Assassin

Chapter 192 Shooting the Condor
Previously, Hong Qigong's attention was on Huang Sixi and he did not pay much attention to the Taoist nun.

When he heard the Taoist nun speak, Hong Qigong looked at her carefully. He felt that the Taoist nun looked familiar, but he could not remember her identity. However, since the Taoist nun called him Master, he must have had contact with her before.

When the Taoist nun saw that Hong Qigong didn't recognize her, she wanted to jump off the eagle's back and kowtow to Hong Qigong.

But the Divine Eagle was tall, and she was ill, so she was worried that a rash jump would make her condition worse. So she shouted to the Divine Eagle, "Senior Eagle, could you please lower your body for a moment? I will be very grateful!"

She spoke subconsciously, but felt a little regretful after she finished speaking. This eagle looked majestic and could carry people and fly, but it was a bird after all, so how could it understand human language?

When she was about to ask Huang Sixi for help, the Divine Eagle suddenly bent its legs and fell down, allowing her to get off its back safely.

She was very surprised that this eagle was truly a fairy eagle and was so well versed in human nature.

She first came to the eagle's head and gave the eagle a grateful smile: "Thank you, Senior Eagle."

Then he walked to Hong Qigong, knelt down and kowtowed: "Disciple Mu Nianci, greets Master Qigong!"

Huang Sixi was not surprised when he heard her introduce herself.

Hong Qigong was somewhat stunned and sighed, "So it's you, little girl! When the old beggar taught you kung fu, you were only thirteen years old. Now you have grown into a big girl. If you don't tell me your name, the old beggar won't recognize you!"

Huang Yaoshi was very happy to find that the female companion of Huang Sixi was actually an old friend of Hong Qigong. He was worried that Huang Sixi would not give in and insisted on fighting Hong Qigong to the end, which might lead to a bloody incident.

Now that we are on good terms, just like the flood that has hit the Dragon King Temple, everything can be discussed calmly and there is no need to fight anymore.

Huang Yaoshi couldn't help but smile and asked Hong Qigong: "Why, is this girl your disciple, Brother Qi?"

"Hey, it's just a name!"

Hong Qigong shook his head and said, "When I was in Bianliang in my early years, I met this girl. She had kindly saved two Beggars' Sect disciples. Seeing her kindness, I taught her a set of boxing techniques. She had good aptitude and learned all the boxing techniques in three days. At that time, I had something urgent to do and left Bianliang on the fourth day. I haven't seen this girl since then. Calculating the time, this happened four or five years ago!"

"Master is right. It has indeed been four or five years!"

When Mu Nianci was taught martial arts by Hong Qigong, she had no idea about his identity.

She was originally from Hetang Village, Lin'an Prefecture. All her family members died of plague. She was still young at that time and was adopted as a daughter by her adoptive father Yang Tiexin, who treated her like his own daughter for more than ten years.

Yang Tiexin had a sworn brother, Guo Xiaotian, who was killed by a villain and left behind a posthumous son, Guo Jing. For the sake of their sworn brotherhood, Yang Tiexin took Mu Nianci and traveled around the world to look for Guo Jing.

Until a few months ago, Yang Tiexin and his daughter Mu Nianci arrived at the capital of the Great Jin Kingdom. They performed while inquiring about Guo Jing's whereabouts.

Perhaps God took pity on them father and daughter, not only allowing them to meet Guo Jing in the capital, but also helping them find Yang Tiexin's first wife Bao Xiruo and his only son Yang Kang.

Unexpectedly, God was not on their side. After Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo recognized each other, they were besieged by the army of Prince Zhao's palace in the capital. In order not to implicate the Quanzhen Taoist priests Ma Yu, Qiu Chuji and Wang Chuyi who came to rescue them, the couple both committed suicide and died for their love.

Afterwards, Mu Nianci was rescued by Qiu Chuji and his two companions.

Since Mu Nianci's martial arts skills were excellent and stronger than her adoptive father Yang Tiexin, this aroused the curiosity of Qiu Chuji and the other two, so they asked about her master.

She told Qiu Chuji and the other two about her experience of being taught martial arts by a beggar master in her early years. It was not until then that she knew that the beggar master was the leader of the Beggars' Sect, Hong Qigong.

She had a good memory, and Hong Qigong's appearance had not changed much. Even though she hadn't seen him for a long time, she recognized him at a glance.

When Hong Qigong learned that she was his disciple in his early years, he signaled her to stand up and stopped her from kneeling.

When she stood still, Hong Qigong saw that her belly was slightly bulging, and asked, "Are you pregnant?"

She stroked her belly, lowered her head and replied, "Well, the disciple is pregnant!"

Hong Qigong immediately looked at Huang Sixi and asked, "Is that boy your husband?"

"Oh, no! He's not!"

Mu Nianci quickly explained: "He is a hero who stands up for the weak. I have no relationship with him and I have never met him before. Just now, I was tied up by a group of beggars who wanted to molest me. He happened to pass by and saved me..."

She originally planned to tell everyone about the evil deeds done by Elder Peng, but then she remembered that Hong Qigong was the leader of the Beggars' Sect. If she told everyone about Elder Peng's evil deeds, it would also damage Hong Qigong's reputation, so she kept silent.

"What did you say?"

Hong Qigong was furious, pointing at Elder Peng's body and saying, "He...he wanted to molest a pregnant woman like you?"

Mu Nianci lowered her head even more and sobbed, but did not utter a word.

She really didn't know how to answer Hong Qigong.

When Huang Yaoshi saw this scene, his face turned embarrassed. If Mu Nianci was not lying, then this matter was extremely serious. The behavior of Elder Peng and the dozen or so beggars was absolutely insane and inhumane.

Just as Huang Sixi said just now, even if they were skinned alive piece by piece, it would not be unfair to them.

Seeing that Mu Nianci was just crying and not saying anything, Hong Qigong turned around and glared at the beggar who came with him and Huang Yaoshi.

When the beggar saw Hong Qigong looking at him, he was frightened and turned to run away, but he was already being targeted by the East Evil and the North Beggar.

In the whole world, no one except Huang Sixi can escape from the East Evil and the North Beggar.

In the blink of an eye, the beggar was captured by Hong Qigong and brought in front of Mu Nianci: "Tell me! What's going on?"

A few months ago, when Hong Qigong was visiting Peach Blossom Island, he met his old enemy Ouyang Feng. Unfortunately, he was ambushed by Ouyang Feng, resulting in serious injuries and a great loss of his power.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, Hong Qigong met Huang Yaoshi again in the Yanyu Tower in Jiaxing, and followed Huang Yaoshi back to Peach Blossom Island to recuperate.

Not long ago, Huang Yaoshi heard the news that his disciple Lu Chengfeng's Guiyun Manor was burned to the ground by Ouyang Feng, and even his daughter Huang Rong was hunted by Ouyang Feng.

In order to find the whereabouts of Huang Rong, Huang Yaoshi and Hong Qigong left Peach Blossom Island together and went out to inquire about Huang Rong's whereabouts.

The two men were traveling together, without any followers. When they were passing by, they saw the Divine Eagle grab a living person and lift him high into the sky, then dismember and kill him in mid-air.

This bloody scene aroused Hong Qigong's chivalrous heart. He thought that the Divine Condor was cruelly harming people, so he invited Huang Yaoshi to track down the Divine Condor and eliminate it for the people.

Huang Yaoshi was concerned about his daughter and didn't want to get involved in this matter, but Hong Qigong insisted on going to the duel, and he was embarrassed to refuse.

By the time the two found the Divine Eagle, it had already killed more than a dozen beggars, leaving only one beggar survivor.

Just like that, the two greatest masters of the time joined forces to fight a great battle against the Divine Condor.

If the Divine Condor had encountered Ouyang Feng, the West Poison, or Yideng, the Southern Emperor, the Divine Condor had a chance of escaping unscathed, but it happened to encounter Huang Yaoshi, the East Evil, and Hong Qigong, the North Beggar.

The Northern Beggar's palm power is powerful and can effectively restrain the Divine Eagle's wing power. The Eastern Evil is even more resourceful. He seizes the opportunity to use his finger magic and injures the Divine Eagle with just one finger.

The Divine Condor knew how powerful the two men were, so he decided not to fight anymore. After being injured, he decisively withdrew and returned to the woods to reunite with Huang Sixi.

Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi were eager to catch the Divine Eagle, so they did not ask the beggar in detail how he got into conflict with the Divine Eagle. The beggar knew that his leader Hong Qigong hated evil, so he did not dare to tell the truth. He only said that the Divine Eagle was raised by evil people and that Elder Peng had been killed by the evil people and the Divine Eagle.

This aroused Hong Qigong's indignation even more, and he chased the Divine Condor along the way until he caught up with Huang Sixi.

Being interrogated by Hong Qigong at this moment, the beggar dared not hide anything anymore and confessed honestly: "A few months ago, Elder Peng led 15 disciples to settle down by the river. Everyone had nothing to do, so they wandered along the river and met this Taoist nun! Elder Peng saw that this Taoist nun was a monk, but was pregnant. He determined that she was not a good girl, so he asked the 15 disciples to besiege this Taoist nun, capture her and torture her for her origins. We just captured the Taoist nun..."

The beggar glanced at Huang Sixi and the divine eagle. He said, "This giant eagle suddenly fell from the sky and killed Elder Peng with some evil magic. Everyone saw the size of the eagle and thought it was a monster, so they ran away in fear. But the eagle chased them along the way. If the leader hadn't arrived in time, I would have lost my life!"

After hearing this, Hong Qigong grabbed the beggar's collar and asked, "So you don't know this Taoist nun at all, but you had evil intentions just because you saw she was pregnant?"

The beggar saw Hong Qigong's extremely angry face, and began to tremble and stammer, "Boss...Boss, I received instructions from Elder Peng. He determined that the Taoist nun was not a good person and ordered his disciples to attack her. I am only a three-bag disciple, how dare I disobey Elder Peng's order? After capturing the Taoist nun, Elder Peng praised her for her delicate skin and tender flesh, saying that she was a top-notch beauty. He was determined to take her for himself and didn't let me touch her at all. I didn't have the chance to molest her even if I wanted to!"

"you……"

Hong Qigong couldn't believe his ears. In the Beggars' Sect, there was such a shameless disciple.

I couldn't even imagine how many evil things these disciples had done to bully women following Elder Peng.

He raised his palm and hit the beggar's head hard, smashing his skull, and shouted, "You deserve to die!"

After this palm strike, the atmosphere in the forest fell silent.

Everyone had their own thoughts and no one spoke.

After a while, Hong Qigong walked up to the Divine Eagle, clasped his fists and bowed his head, sincerely apologizing, "I am an old beggar who has no vision and does not know right from wrong. I accidentally hurt my friend the eagle, and I am here to apologize! I will accept any beating or punishment without complaint!"

Even if the Divine Eagle clawed him to death or Huang Sixi slapped him to death, he would not fight back.

When Mu Nianci saw Hong Qigong going to apologize to the Divine Eagle, she hurriedly knelt in front of the Divine Eagle and took all the responsibility on herself, "It's all my fault. If I hadn't pretended to be a Taoist nun, maybe the people in the Beggars' Sect wouldn't have made things difficult for me. I beg Senior Eagle not to blame Master Qigong!"

When the Divine Eagle saw Mu Nianci coming to plead for mercy, it quacked and generously let bygones be bygones.

However, the Divine Eagle immediately looked at Huang Yaoshi again and cried out in great anger.

Just now, Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi teamed up to besiege it. Hong Qigong's role was just to contain it, while Huang Yaoshi was the culprit who sneak attacked and injured it.

Huang Yaoshi chuckled and clasped his fists, saying, "I have been walking the rivers and lakes for decades, but today is the first time I have seen an eagle so chivalrous and righteous. I am ashamed of myself! If I have offended you before, I am willing to apologize. I hope you will forgive me!"

Seeing that the Divine Condor could understand human language, he no longer treated the Divine Condor as a bird and directly addressed it as "Your Excellency".

Then he took out a porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured out a scarlet pill from the bottle, and handed it to the Divine Eagle: "I used my finger magic to injure your body, so I will use this bottle of Nine Flower Jade Dew Pill as compensation, which can heal the wound on your head!"

The Divine Eagle immediately lowered its head, sniffed the Nine-Flower Jade Dew Pill, opened its mouth and swallowed it.

After taking the pill, the Divine Condor cried out in joy and no longer looked down upon Huang Yaoshi.

When Huang Yaoshi saw that the Divine Eagle could identify the quality of elixirs, he felt that the Divine Eagle was even more extraordinary and instantly envied Huang Sixi's opportunity.

He threw the porcelain bottle directly to Huang Sixi and said with a smile: "Please keep this bottle of pills for me, my friend!"

Huang Sixi saw that the Divine Condor had made peace with Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi and had no intention of continuing the fight. He just put the porcelain bottle away.

Then he walked towards Mu Nianci and asked, "Your name is Mu Nianci, so is your child's father called Yang Kang?"

Mu Nianci looked surprised and was stunned for a long time, finally nodding to Huang Sixi.

She did lose her virginity to Yang Kang, and her child was Yang Kang's son.

A few months ago, her adoptive father Yang Tiexin and adoptive mother Bao Xiruo both committed suicide for love. She brought her parents' bodies back to her hometown in Lin'an for burial, and during that time she met her parents' only son Yang Kang again.

Yang Kang used sweet words to trick her into getting married.

She was raised by Yang Tiexin, and Yang Kang was Yang Tiexin's only son, so she naturally had a good impression of Yang Kang.

She lost her virginity to Yang Kang, not necessarily because she loved Yang Kang, but more to repay Yang Tiexin for raising her.

Since she reunited with Yang Kang, she first followed Yang Kang to Dongting Lake in Hunan to attend the Junshan Conference of the Beggars' Sect.

Yang Kang was defeated by Guo Jing and Huang Rong in the fight for the position of leader of the Beggars' Sect, and thus could no longer gain a foothold in the sect. Yang Kang decided to follow Qiu Qianren to seek refuge at the Iron Palm Gang headquarters.

At that time, Mu Nianci had already committed herself to Yang Kang. Based on the principle of marrying a chicken, you follow the chicken; marrying a dog, you follow the dog, she followed Yang Kang to the headquarters of Iron Palm Peak in western Hunan.

Unexpectedly, during her time in the Iron Palm Gang, Mu Nianci learned that Yang Kang was colluding with Qiu Qianren and planned to start an uprising in Hunan and Hubei and offer the two lakes region to the Great Jin Kingdom.

Mu Nianci was willing to give herself to Yang Kang because of the kindness of her adoptive father Yang Tiexin in raising her, but when it came to the greater good, she was not willing to compromise at all.

After she learned of Yang Kang's intentions, she decisively left Iron Palm Peak and broke away from Yang Kang.

She originally wanted to return to her hometown in Lin'an and end her life there.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the journey, she discovered that she was pregnant.

She was pregnant before marriage, which was unacceptable to the secular world, so she didn't want outsiders to know about it. She lost interest in returning to her hometown in Lin'an and only wanted to find a deserted place to live in seclusion and give birth to her child.

As a result, when she walked to the riverside, she was spotted by Elder Peng of the Beggar Gang.

Now that she was rescued by Huang Sixi and met her mentor Hong Qigong, she no longer concealed her experience and told him everything.

After hearing this, Hong Qigong and Huang Yaoshi felt very sympathetic towards her situation.

Huang Sixi recalled the major events in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes".

Mu Nianci lost her virginity to Yang Kang between the Junshan Conference on July 15th and the Battle of Yanyu Tower on August 15th.

When Guo Jing returned to the Central Plains from the grassland, his main experience was meeting Yang Tiexin, Bao Xiruo, and Yang Kang in Prince Zhao's mansion, and then going to Dongting Lake with Huang Rong to attend the Junshan Conference.

After Huang Rong took over the position of leader of the Beggars' Sect, she immediately went to Iron Palm Peak to look for the "Wu Mu Testament", and then participated in the Battle of Misty Rain Tower.

It was after the battle at Yanyu Tower that Huang Rong was chased by Ouyang Feng for thousands of miles, all the way to the battlefield in the Western Regions where Guo Jing participated.

Now Yang Tiexin and Bao Xiruo have died for love, Huang Rong has become the leader of the Beggars' Sect, and the battle of Yanyu Tower is over.

The entire major event in the Central Plains of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has basically come to an end.

But it was not because Huang Sixi traveled through time too late, but because he lived in seclusion in the sword tomb for several months and missed these major events.

If he had gone out to roam the world directly when he came to "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", Guo Jing and Huang Rong had not yet met for the first time, and he could have experienced all the adventures of Guo and Huang.
