Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 254 Both sides are looking forward to it
Wuyinghou stared at the intelligence report in his hand, his whole body bleeding!

Seventeen days ago, the Great Eagle Monk blocked the grain transport convoy, killed Red Princess, and scared away Purple Princess.

Fifteen days ago, the Great Eagle Monk encountered the Ninth General, the Golden Monkey Moyun, on a narrow road and killed him with a single punch.

Eight days ago, the Great Eagle Monk sneaked into a secret stronghold and killed Green Princess, the Eighth General Tong Bao, and the Tenth General Sun Pojian.

Five days ago, at an inn, I beat Pink Princess and the Fourth General Red Demon to death on their bed. When they died, they were naked and had no clothes on.

The rise and fall of martial arts gangs depend on the personal abilities of their leaders. The Red Lotus Society had lost a major leader and had already fallen out of the top ten gangs. With Wuying Hou killing Chen Xuange, it was thought that the Red Lotus Society would soon be wiped out of the martial arts world, or at least decline to the level of a third or fourth-rate gang.

Little did they know that Chen Xuange had a close friend, the Great Vulture Zen Master of Shaochan Temple. This bald monk was elusive and had already killed three of Chen Xuange's concubines and four of his generals during this time!

If we add Yun Zhongyan, then it becomes three princesses and five generals.

Every time he glanced at the intelligence in his hand, his heart ached unbearably.

The Eight Heroines and Twelve Generals were his old team of decades. Each of them was a rare talent in the martial arts world. They were either painstakingly cultivated by him or recruited by him through various means. It was almost impossible to raise such a team again.

It should be noted that even though Black Dragon City suffered a great loss, losing most of its fleet, Shadowless Marquis had never felt such profound pain.

In just a few days, eight of them were killed by a bald thief!
Wuying Hou didn't even care that Fen Ji and the Fourth General, Hong Gui, were having an affair; he was beyond furious.

Wuyinghou channeled his inner energy, shattering the intelligence report in his hand into dust. He roared, "Where is that bald thief now?"

His top general, Hu Tuzhen, replied calmly, "I have already spread the word that Bai Ji is living in seclusion nearby, and that bald thief will surely come over."

Wuying Hou said resentfully, "Fine, I'll personally kill him with my palm when the time comes."

He only brought four concubines and eight generals with him when he came to land this time; the rest of the people were overseas managing the fleet.

Now only Zi Ji, the first general Hu Tu Zhen, the third general Ming Hai, and the fifth general Zhi Yin remain!

Zi Ji was punished for reclaiming the item that day, but with the news coming in like snowflakes these past few days, she was even somewhat relieved. If Hong Ji hadn't taken the initiative to challenge her, she would definitely have been the one to die. Luckily, she escaped quickly, otherwise, she would have certainly died if she had stayed.

The third general, Minghai, and the fifth general, Zhiyin, also looked extremely grim. They had originally thought that Sun Yanwan had joined forces with Chen Xuange and dozens of leaders of the Red Lotus Society to kill the second general, Yun Zhongyan. But now they knew that since Chen Xuange was already dead, there was no need to promote the name of this leader. News had spread that Sun Yanwan had killed Yun Zhongyan with a single punch that day.

Wuyinghou waved his hand, and his subordinates Ziji and three generals, knowing that he wanted to be alone for a while, quietly went out.

Minghai couldn't help but ask, "Ziji, is that bald thief's martial arts really that powerful?"

Zi Ji looked fearful and said, "He is proficient in the Immovable King Divine Skill and the Vajra Technique. He can also use two techniques at the same time. When he killed Hong Ji, he used the finger technique of Shao Chan Temple to deflect Hong Ji's long sword with one hand, and then struck down with his palm, killing Hong Ji. I don't know how high his martial arts level is."

Hu Tuzhen said calmly, "There's no need to scare yourself. From his few moves, we can deduce that this person only cultivates both internal and external skills, which makes him appear stronger than other martial artists of the same level, but in reality, he has not yet reached the Innate Realm."

“If it weren’t for the fact that the Marquis intended to take action himself, I could have killed this man with the sword in my hand.”

Zi Ji still looked fearful, but she didn't refute. Hu Tuzhen was born into the Demon-Slaying Hu family. Because his mother was a concubine, he didn't learn the Hu family's Demon-Slaying Sword Technique. As a young man, he wandered the martial world alone. Ying Hou took a liking to him and taught him the Shadowless Sword Technique. By the age of twenty-seven or twenty-eight, he had already advanced to the Innate Realm. Hu Tuzhen was the top expert under Ying Hou, roaming overseas with few rivals, and was also the only one to have received the true teachings of the Shadowless Sword Technique.

Nominally the top general, he was actually the chief disciple of Wuyinghou.

Zi Ji knew that Hu Tuzhen was arrogant and extremely favored by Wuying Hou, so she didn't dare to argue with him. Besides, she also felt that if they really met the Great Eagle Monk, Hu Tuzhen might actually be able to defeat this bald man.

At this moment, Sun Yanwan was also reviewing intelligence. Some of his intelligence came from the Red Lotus Society, some from various gangs that had submitted to Shaochan Temple, some from gangs that had submitted to Songyang Sect, and some from Tianma Gang.

Hu Tuzhen spread the word that Bai Ji was somewhere, but Sun Yanwan received intelligence from Black Dragon City that Wuying Hou's most trusted Black and White Ji were overseas, overseeing the remaining fleet of Wuying Hou.

He couldn't help but chuckle and said, "The Shadowless Marquis has no talent under his command!"

"You dare to use such a flawed scheme against me?"

Hu Tuzhen truly had no idea that Sun Yanwan could mobilize such a vast intelligence network. He thought that how could a lone, bald-headed thief know that the Black and White Twins were both overseas? Even if the Red Lotus Society were included, it would be impossible for him to find out this information. However, he did not expect that Sun Yanwan's sources of information were not limited to one place.

Sun Yanwan took a deep breath. He knew that the information Hu Tuzhen had released was definitely false, and that what awaited him was a trap. He had no intention of stepping into it.

He anticipated the enemy's misfortune and had secretly transferred Wei Yingxiao, Shi Si, Lu Shuangfeng, and Wu Zhi from Black Dragon City.

Sun Yanwan thought to herself, "I wonder if it will be Hu Tuzhen, the top general under Wuying Hou, or him himself that's waiting for me this time. If it's him, that would be wonderful."

"As long as we kill this man, his Black and White Twin Princesses will be no threat at all, and they will not have the prestige to subdue those fierce pirates. On the vast sea, my fleet will have no rivals."

"I'm really looking forward to it!"

"but……"

"What I'm most looking forward to is that my aunt is coming."

"I've finally grown up, and it's time for me to eat my aunt."

In this world, there is no such thing as a virgin's body or a pure yang body in martial arts. On the contrary, the martial arts of the Songyang School emphasize locking in essence and strengthening the foundation.

Sun Yanwan didn't know this at first, but when she was in Songyang Mountain participating in the revision of the sect's Five Classics and Thirteen Unique Skills, she finally realized that there was actually a small pitfall in the way her master had instructed her to cultivate the Ruyi Qiankun Bag.

Sun Yanwan actually had the nerve to ask her master, Zhang Yuanqiao, who said in a serious tone, "Disciple, you're overthinking things. Your master is a grandmaster."

Sun Yanwan thought to herself, "So what if someone is a Grandmaster? Even if they're at the top, they might not be a decent person!"

Thinking of Shi Si's imminent arrival, Sun Yanwan touched her bald head and suddenly became excited. Forgetting to rest, she practiced the Golden Tendon Jade Bone Fist all night. By dawn, she had actually cultivated the last two meridians, which were still at the Yin Jin level, to the He Jin level.
