Martial arts of the heavens, I am unstoppable since I was born

Chapter 87: Starting Again, Dugu Sword Tomb
High in the sky, clouds cover the sky.

The dim afterglow of the setting sun shines on the clouds, dyeing the snow-white clouds a dull yellow with no base color visible. Water vapor gurgles inside the clouds, and clouds roll and unfold outside the clouds, looking so comfortable.

Suddenly, a strong wind blew from the horizon, bringing with it terrifying dark clouds as thick as lead and as dark as ink.

The dark clouds were overbearing and wild, swooping down towards the yellow clouds. The clouds overlapped and blended as one, without any obstruction. In an instant, the dark clouds rose wildly, the wind blew violently, and the whistling wind swept across the sky, causing torrential rain to fall.

Huang Rong swayed in the wind like a delicate and beautiful flower, stretching out each of her charming petals in joy and fear, decadent and blooming.

Her mind was empty and there was no trace of any amazing plan - force can defeat skill. After Huang Rong arrogantly and domineeringly picked her up and flew high into the sky, her plan was ineffective.

The starry eyes reflected the arrogant face like water, the red lips were lightly bitten, and it was like the delicate fragrance of orchid and musk was gently smelled when breathing, and the silk was slender and the jade-white skin was like blooming peach blossoms.

Zhang Kuang laughed and asked, "Do you still hate me for being so heartless now?"
Huang Rong's rosy cheeks turned to her red lips, and she refused to talk to him. She just beat his shoulders and pulled his legs around, like a jade chain, entangled everywhere. Who could untie it?
The two of them were playing and laughing, just like a pair of mandarin ducks dancing together!

……

……

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Zhang Kuang danced wildly in the air, but a huge uproar broke out under the city of Xiangyang.

Earlier, there were only rumors that Gang Leader Huang brought a Taoist master with great magical powers to Xiangyang City to help. The master controlled the wind and fire to launch a surprise attack on the enemy camp, causing chaos among the enemy troops and burning the camps. It was unknown how many people were killed or injured. Later, the two behaved intimately and flew high in the sky while talking and laughing.

After Meng Gong had finished teaching Ogedei a lesson and writing his report, he heard rumors circulating. Because Huang Rong and Guo Jing had previously assisted in the battle in Xiangyang City and enjoyed prestige among the common people and the Jianghu, the rumors had taken on a new flavor. They were slandering Zhang Kuang and Huang Rong, and even seemed to despise Zhang Kuang's character.

Most of these were rumors spread by fearless people in the martial arts world who were jealous of Zhang Kuang's great magical powers and his ability to go to Wushan with a beauty like Huang Rong.

Meng Gong knew that Zhang Kuang was definitely not a person who loved fame and fortune, nor was he a person who was loyal to the emperor and the country - otherwise why didn't he show up when the two emperors went hunting in the north and when he entered Luoyang during the Duanping period?
The reason he is willing to take action now is probably because Huang Rong has a close relationship with him.

Just by hearing his name, you can tell that he is definitely not a kind and charitable person. If he hears these slanderous words, Meng Gong cannot guarantee what he will do as he has no taboos.

Therefore, Meng Gong directly posted a notice stating that Zhang Kuang had launched a surprise attack on the enemy camp, not only capturing the enemy chief Ogedei alive, but also setting the camp on fire, causing countless Mongolian soldiers to flee. He had made great contributions to Xiangyang City and the Song Dynasty, and anyone who slandered him would be treated as a spy.

Many people in the underworld are indignant.

Many scholars also said that "it is more difficult to guard against the people's mouths than to guard against floods" and came to Meng Gong to argue.

Then Meng Gong said, "This fire can burn the Mongol camp, and it can also burn the city of Xiangyang. They can kill the enemy leader Ogedei alive in the midst of thousands of troops. Can't they also take your head and mine?"

As a result, the tone of conversation among scholars suddenly changed, and they praised Zhang Kuang a lot. Even the affair between him and Huang Rong became a story of a famous scholar, from a shameful affair to the acquaintance of a fairy couple.

Guo Jing?

The literati expressed unfamiliarity.

This caused those gang members to become more and more agitated.

Even if they are locked up in a cell, they still shout out the "truth".

It was not until a group of people died that these people stopped being so stubborn and regained their sense of awe.

Of course, these arrogant people didn't know this, otherwise he probably wouldn't care. At best, he would let them enter the Nine Dragons Divine Fire Cover to experience what it felt like to be burned to death.

As reports of the battle from Xiangyang City were rushed to Lin'an Prefecture at a swift 800-li mile hurricane, the entire nation was shaken. Emperor Zhao Yun (Song Lizong), having just been freed from the tyranny of the powerful official Shi Miyuan and facing criticism from both the government and the public, received Meng Gong's report, and was instantly overjoyed: "An immortal has descended! Clearly, the heavens have taken pity on my plight, sending down an immortal to help me achieve my mission of enshrining the celestial rites!"

Zhao Yun was overjoyed and ordered Meng Gong to send troops to recover the lost territory. He also mentioned that he wanted Zhang Kuang to escort Ogedei to Lin'an Prefecture and pay him a visit as the true dragon emperor.

Meng Gong simply ignored it.

The emperor had been suppressed by Shi Miyuan for a long time, and when he suddenly gained power, he had lost his awe. In order to avoid replacing another emperor, he could only choose to pretend that he didn't understand.

But Meng Gong still found Zhang Kuang.

Although the Mongolian army was defeated and the Mongolian high-ranking officials began to fight for the position of Khan, Kublai Khan, who had lived in the Central Plains for a long time, had already rushed to the grassland with the troops surrendered from the Central Plains. However, there were many heroes in the north. Seeing an opportunity, these people rose up in rebellion. Some of them were remnants of the former Jin Dynasty, Western Xia, and Liao Dynasty, and there were also many Han people who wanted to take the opportunity to rise up.

It can be said that there is chaos.

If he could get Zhang Kuang's help, Meng Gong was confident that he could regain the lost territory within a year.

At this time, Zhang Kuang had been staying with Huang Rong, Li Mochou and others in Xiangyang City for more than half a month. Li Mochou also received her disciple Hong Lingbo. The master and disciple were reunited in the same bed, and their relationship was more harmonious than ever before.

After living in the land of gentleness for a long time, he did not do nothing. Instead, he asked Huang Rong to mobilize the disciples of the Beggar Gang to search for Dugu Jian's Tomb. At the same time, he asked Cheng Yaojia to spend money to find a snake catcher to buy the Bosuqu snake. After such a long time, there have been some results.

So when Meng Gong arrived, Zhang Kuang was just about to leave.

"Master Zhang, are you planning to leave the city? I wonder where you're going. I might have some connections and be able to help you avoid unnecessary trouble."

Zhang Kuang hated the title of immortal, so Meng Gong and others settled for the second best and called him "real person".

When Meng Gong saw the servants behind Li Mochou and the others carrying large and small bags, he knew that Zhang Kuang was about to leave, but he had no intention of stopping him. Instead, he asked what kind of help he could provide.

Zhang Kuang was not familiar with him, so he ignored him, just asked someone to load the things into the car, and then got on the carriage directly.

Master Li Mochou and his apprentice followed suit and got into the car, bypassing Meng Gong.

Huang Rong pressed her swollen brows, forced a smile, and stepped forward to say, "I have some matters that require me to leave the city. Duke Meng suddenly came here, but what is the important matter?"

Although Meng Gong was lucky enough to get the upper hand, he also made great contributions, so he was named the founding duke of Handong County and was in charge of military affairs.

"It's nothing important. I'm just about to lead the army to the front line, so I came here to say goodbye to Master Zhang and Gang Leader Huang." Meng Gong didn't think there was anything wrong with Zhang Kuang's behavior, but he still disliked Master Li Mochou and his disciple in his heart, so he didn't mention them during the conversation.

"Then I wish the general a successful start and immediate success." Huang Rong changed her address to offer her blessings to Meng Gong, adding, "We left the city to search for an ancestral site that is relatively close to Mount Wudang. If the general needs help, he can send someone to Mount Wudang to find me."

"Thank you, Boss Huang," Meng Gong finally smiled. He bowed to Huang Rong, then saluted the carriage and said, "Gong respectfully sends you off. I hope you will achieve your wish and gain something from your journey."

Zhang Kuang lifted the curtain and nodded towards Meng Gong as a response. He then looked at Huang Rong and said, "Why don't you come up?"

Huang Rong sighed helplessly, said goodbye to Meng Gong and got into the car.

The development of things will not be changed by human will. Even if she is unwilling, what she gets in return is not freedom, but arrogant and tough measures.

Instead of making things unhappy, it’s better to just keep things peaceful.

Unfortunately, the tree wanted to be still but the wind did not stop. Not long after Zhang Kuang's carriage left Xiangyang, someone stopped the carriage...
