The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun.

Jiang Ning, who was talking to Lu Dayou, stopped in his tracks.

"what happened?"

Lu Dayou also stopped and looked at Jiang Ning curiously, but he noticed that Jiang Ning's expression gradually turned cold.

"Sixth Senior Brother, may I borrow your sword?"

Jiang Ning did not answer, but said something to Lu Dayou. Then, without waiting for Lu Dayou's reply, he grabbed the hilt of his sword, turned around, and leaped towards the young man.

The sound of wind breaking through the air came.

The young man, who was walking down the street, suddenly felt an alarm bell ringing behind him. He turned around and saw Jiang Ning raising his sword and slashing at him.

The young man's expression changed, and he retreated rapidly.

Before he could react, Jiang Ning lunged forward and slashed horizontally with his sword.

The incident happened so suddenly that the young man had no time to think. Seeing Jiang Ning's ruthless moves, he immediately drew his short sword and began to fight Jiang Ning.

"This……"

Lu Dayou was dumbfounded.

What's happening here?

As they were both disciples of Mount Hua, he recognized Jiang Ning's move as the starting stance of the Deadly Three Rings Three Immortal Swords.

This is one of the Sword Sect's signature techniques, and also a very ruthless move. Jiang Ning started with a killing move; what kind of grudge is this?

Chapter 148: Ren Yingying

when!

As weapons clashed, the young man's arm went numb.

Are you sick in the head?

The young man glared at Jiang Ning and cursed him angrily, his face full of rage.

If he hadn't reacted in time, he would be dead by now.

when!

Jiang Ning swung his sword again.

The two were very close at this moment. The young man looked at Jiang Ning's face, which was so close to his own, and his obsidian-like eyes revealed a cold and fierce intent.

The young man stared at Jiang Ning's face, his expression hardening and momentarily stunned.

In the instant he was stunned, Jiang Ning slashed him back, leaped behind the young man, and with a flick of his longsword, aimed straight for the back of his head.

jingle!

The young man dodged, but his crown was pierced, and his long hair fell loose.

"Huh? A woman?"

Lu Dayou stared in even more disbelief.

It wasn't obvious at first; people thought he was some rich young master. But when Jiang Ning knocked off his crown, they realized he was a woman disguised as a man.

"you!"

Ren Yingying glared angrily at Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning looked at her with a cold expression.

Ever since that night of passion, he had been unable to forget Ren Yingying, never expecting her to appear here.

Jiang Ning moved swiftly and thrust his sword forward again, this time using the Huashan Sword Technique, "The Phoenix Arrives."

Seeing Jiang Ning charging at her without saying a word, Ren Yingying's expression turned extremely ugly. She raised her short sword and began to fight Jiang Ning.

"Who exactly is this woman?"

Lu Dayou watched with wide eyes from the side, then turned to look at Liu Zhao.

"Junior nephew, do you recognize this person?"

Liu Zhao also looked blank: "I don't know him."

when!when!when!

In this very short time, Jiang Ning and Ren Yingying exchanged dozens of blows. Although Ren Yingying did not show any signs of defeat, she was starting to struggle to keep up.

Jiang Ning's every move so far has been a killing move, aimed directly at taking her life.

"Are you crazy?"

Ren Yingying was both shocked and furious.

Who starts a fight without saying a word, and with such ruthlessness?

She still doesn't know that Jiang Ning has recognized her.

"Oh."

Jiang Ning sneered and remained silent.

He still vividly remembers the generous gift the other party gave him.

The more they fought, the more Ren Yingying felt she couldn't keep up.

As the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, she grew up in the Sun Moon Sect and possessed extraordinary talent. Several years ago, she was already a first-class master, which made her think highly of herself and consider herself the number one among the younger generation. However, she never expected that such a monster as Jiang Ning would emerge.

She had met Jiang Ning once two years ago, but Jiang Ning was only a second-rate fighter at that time, and she could have killed him easily. So she didn't take Jiang Ning seriously and scoffed at what he said in Xiangyang Prefecture. But she never expected that he would grow to this level two years later.

While in Sichuan, she discovered that Jiang Ning was also there. She initially sent people from the Five Poisons Sect to contact Jiang Ning, but Gan Lan never returned. The people from the Five Poisons Sect eventually found Gan Lan's body by a stream.

Later, after learning of Gan Lan's death, she didn't have time to stay in Sichuan any longer. Before leaving Sichuan, she sent more than twenty people to persuade Jiang Ning to surrender. Those people were all experts. Originally, she had calculated that Jiang Ning had absolutely no chance of winning, but in the end, all of them died in Sichuan.

Jiang Ning really gave her too many surprises.

Not only Jiang Ning, but the Huashan Sect also surprised her greatly.

Originally, she planned to have the Six Immortals of Peach Valley go up Mount Hua to bring Linghu Chong back, to see what was so special about the person Qu Yang recommended.

Although the six Peach Valley Immortals were eccentric, they were all very strong, only slightly stronger than Yue Buqun. According to her plan, it would be easy for these six people to go up the mountain to find Linghu Chong, but she did not expect that they would be injured by Yue Buqun and escape down the mountain.

Yue Buqun's current strength has also exceeded her expectations.

Not only that, she also discovered that the Sword and Qi factions of the Huashan Sect, which had been split for decades, had actually merged.

While other sects were unaware of the internal strife within the Huashan Sect, top powers like the Sun Moon Sect, Wudang, and Shaolin were, making this even more unbelievable to her.

She finds the Huashan Sect increasingly incomprehensible now.

Bang!

Jiang Ning slashed straight down with his sword again, forcing Ren Yingying to retreat repeatedly.

By this time, the crowd on the street had dispersed, leaving only the two of them fighting, with Lu Dayou and Liu Zhao beside them.

boom!

Jiang Ning raised his leg and delivered a high whip kick, sweeping across Ren Yingying's cheek and creating a whistling sound.

Ren Yingying's heart skipped a beat, and she leaned back to dodge the attack, but the fierce wind brought by Jiang Ning still made her face sting slightly.

"Junior brother, who is this woman?"

Lu Dayou also made his move at this moment.

Although he didn't understand why Jiang Ning wanted to attack this woman, he chose to help his junior brother immediately.

"The Holy Maiden of the Demonic Cult".

As Jiang Ning swept his sword across the room, he answered Lu Dayou's question.

"what?"

Lu Dayou and Ren Yingying were both startled at the same time.

Lu Dayou was surprised because this woman was actually the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect, while Ren Yingying was surprised because Jiang Ning had actually recognized her. She had been wondering why Jiang Ning had attacked her so fiercely the moment they met.

How did you recognize me?

Ren Yingying looked at Jiang Ning with surprise and doubt.

They had only met twice in total, once two years ago at Hu Anyu's residence and once now. Apart from that, they had never met again. Even just now, she didn't react immediately, but Jiang Ning recognized her right away.

Faced with Ren Yingying's question, Jiang Ning just sneered; he didn't want to say a word.

If it weren't for that night of passion in Sichuan, even if Ren Yingying walked past him in women's clothing, he might not have remembered her. After all, he had only met her once two years ago, and her appearance was already blurry in his memory. But after that night, Ren Yingying's appearance gradually became clear in his mind, the kind that is unforgettable and impossible to forget.

Upon hearing Jiang Ning's words, Lu Dayou immediately took action.

Ren Yingying, who was already struggling to cope, looked extremely displeased when she saw that the other party had helpers, and was ready to withdraw at any moment.

Her martial arts skills were not low. Before she learned that Ren Woxing had been imprisoned by Dongfang Bubai, she had grown up under Dongfang Bubai's tutelage. At a young age, she was already a first-class master. Her strength was second only to the leaders of the Five Mountains Sword Sects. However, she could not gain any advantage over Jiang Ning.

She was at a huge disadvantage in this fight. Her opponent took the initiative and kept pressing her, preventing her from using her full strength. Then, her opponent came to help, so she had to leave.

when!

Jiang Ning raised his sword and slashed, Ren Yingying pretended to block, and the moment their weapons made contact, she immediately used the force to retreat. The next second, she turned and ran, her speed as fast as a ghost.

She learned all her martial arts skills from Dongfang Bubai. Although she knew that Dongfang Bubai was the murderer who imprisoned her father, she had to admit that Dongfang Bubai had treated her very well over the years.

Of course, Dongfang Bubai had his reasons for treating her this way.

However, apart from the most advanced martial arts like the Sunflower Manual, which he didn't teach her, Dongfang Bubai didn't hold back any of his other martial arts skills from her.

"Junior brother, the demoness has escaped."

Lu Dayou stared blankly at Ren Yingying's ghostly speed.

He can't catch up.

"Junior brother, since the demoness has run away, let's go back..."

Ren Yingying's appearance was an unexpected event. Although she escaped, Lu Da didn't feel it was a great pity.

Lu Dayou was about to speak to Jiang Ning when he saw Jiang Ning chase after him and disappear in a few flashes.
