Zongwu: Eavesdropping on the inner voices, the female warriors have become strange

Bastard, how come there are so many masters in Mantuo Villa?

Chapter 269 Murong Bo (Part )

It’s not that Murong Bo didn’t want to find out the situation of Mantuo Villa before taking action, but that he couldn’t find out.

Mantuo Villa is a small island surrounded by water. Its unique situation means any boat approaching will be discovered. Furthermore, since the Murong family became an enemy, Mantuo Villa has established patrol teams that work in four shifts day and night. After Chen Liu and Wang Yuyan returned, they refined the patrol routes, schedules, and blind spots. Therefore, even a Grandmaster or Grandmaster would find it difficult to sneak into Mantuo Villa unnoticed.

Murong Bo could only sneak into Mantuo Villa quietly without alerting the people there because the number of patrolling guards had decreased significantly while the people were having New Year's Eve dinner.

"Murong Bo and Murong Fu?" When Wang Yuyan and Chen Liu heard Murong Bo shouting at Fu'er to retreat quickly, their expressions couldn't help but change. Murong Fu was nothing, the main problem was Murong Bo, this guy was a grandmaster.

"Bang!" Murong Bo came too fast, and Wang Yuyan had no time to dodge. She could only bite the bullet and fight him with her palm. After the fight, her body was also hit by Murong Bo and kept retreating.

Wang Yuyan had initially assumed that facing off against a Grandmaster like Murong Bo would inevitably result in some injuries. It all depended on how much of Murong Bo's palm power she could displace with her Dou Zhuan Xing Yi technique. If she could displace more, the injury would be mild; if she could displace less, the injury would be severe. However, Murong Bo's palm power was much weaker than she had imagined. After Wang Yuyan used Dou Zhuan Xing Yi to displace it, the remaining force only caused a slight discomfort in her chest. Wang Yuyan was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed. She had guessed that Murong Bo's injuries hadn't healed, and his power had been significantly reduced.

Meanwhile, Murong Fu, despite being warned by Murong Bo, was already in mid-air. How could he retreat? He could only continue his charge towards Chen Liu. He couldn't believe it. He had reached Grandmaster level all those years ago, and recently, with his father's guidance and help, reached the mid-level Grandmaster level. He couldn't even take down a young Karami who had just reached Grandmaster level.

Murong Fu really couldn't take down Chen Liu. Although Chen Liu was holding chopsticks instead of a sword, he used the sword-breaking style of the Dugu Nine Swords. Even though the chopsticks were much shorter than Murong Fu's sword, Murong Fu couldn't use the force to move in the air, but Chen Liu could perform Lingbo Weibu on the ground to move into his blind spot.

At the moment when Murong Fu's sword was about to pierce Chen Liu, the chopsticks in his hand flew towards Murong Fu's vitals at lightning speed under his finger-snapping magic. Chen Liu's figure flashed and disappeared in front of Murong Fu, and turned to his side. At the same time, he took another chopstick in his hand and stabbed Murong Fu again.

After Murong Fu swung his sword to knock away the chopsticks that were flying towards him, he felt a pain in his waist, as if his kidney was stabbed by something. The pain was so severe that he couldn't help but scream.

"Fu'er." Hearing Murong Fu's scream, Murong Bo, who had just repelled Wang Yuyan and was about to rescue Murong Fu, suddenly became furious. He did not expect that his son Murong Fu was so useless. He was injured by Chen Liu in just one round, and the injury was to his kidney, which was related to whether his Murong family could give birth to a son.

Although Murong Bo admitted that he had misjudged Chen Liu, although he had just reached the Grandmaster level, he did not seem to be an ordinary Grandmaster. However, Murong Fu had reached the Grandmaster level for many years. He had a sword in his hand, but he could not defeat Chen Liu who was holding chopsticks. Wasn't he too useless?

"Want to leave? Stay." Lian Xing was a master of both martial arts and martial arts. In a flash, she was already beside Murong Bo, striking him with a jade palm. If Murong Bo still tried to save Murong Fu, he would surely be struck by Lian Xing. Murong Bo's injuries hadn't healed yet, and a single blow from Lian Xing would have been enough to inflict heavy damage.

"Everyone, retreat quickly, leave the restaurant." Apart from the four masters, the first ones to react were Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan. Before the others could react, Qin Mengyao had already pulled Li Qingluo, who was still confused and didn't know what was going on, and ran out.

"Cunning." Wanwan looked at Qin Mengyao, who had already grabbed Li Qingluo and ran away, feeling a little depressed. She had been beaten to the punch. She could only grab Lin Shiyin and A-Bi nearby, who hadn't reacted yet, and flee out of the restaurant.

The people who came were Murong Bo and Murong Fu, father and son. Those who participated in this battle were at least masters, and there was also a grand master among them. They basically could not do anything, and the best help they could give was not to cause trouble for Chen Liu and Wang Yuyan.

Shi Feixuan reacted quickly as well, and instantly dragged Ah Zhu and Yue Lingshan and ran out.

Of course, Huang Rong, Zhou Zhiruo, and Mu Nianci were not much slower to react. Huang Rong went to pull Cheng Ying, Mu Nianci went to drag Lu Wushuang and Hong Lingbo, Mu Wanqing grabbed Jiang Yuyan, and Zhong Ling went to pull Qu Feiyan. Only Zhou Zhiruo did not go to help, she had already run to the door.

"Lianxing, his injuries haven't healed yet. Let's hold him together." Wang Yuyan released the force of retreating and stepped forward to return to Murong Bo's side. She said, "Let my husband and Brother Ding capture Murong Fu first. Then we will be invincible."

Wang Yuyan had finally figured it out. Even though Murong Bo's injuries hadn't healed, a Grandmaster was still a Grandmaster. Without a hostage, she had no confidence she could defeat Murong Bo, not even with Lianxing. Hadn't she seen how Murong Bo had forced her back repeatedly with just one palm strike? Now, she could only work with Lianxing to buy Chenliu more time and capture Murong Fu alive.

The speed of the fight between the Grandmasters and Grandmasters was extremely fast. From the sudden attack by Murong Bo and Murong Fu to now, it only took a moment. The rest of the people in the restaurant only reacted now. Di Yun hurriedly dragged his wife Qi Fang and Ding Dian's wife Ling Shuanghua and ran out in a panic.

The maids and servants at Mantuo Villa were also screaming and falling into chaos. Some loyal ones wanted to help, but they couldn't even see Wang Yuyan, Murong Bo, and the others clearly. They only saw a few fleeting shadows darting around and colliding in the restaurant. They couldn't help at all, and they were lucky not to make things worse. They could only run out helplessly.

Li Qingluo, who had been dragged out of the restaurant by Qin Mengyao, only then reacted. Listening to the crackling sounds coming from the restaurant, her face turned pale and her lips trembled. She said, "Yes, yes, Murong, Murong Bo, that damn guy is here."

In the restaurant, Murong Fu was stabbed by Chen Liu with a chopstick, and then was hit in the chest by Ding Dian with a palm. He screamed again and flew backwards.

"Brother Ding, he will teach you." Chen Liu said as he stepped on the Lingbo Weibu, with Tianshan Zhemei Hand in his right hand and Kongming Fist in his left hand, and rushed towards Murong Bo who was besieged by Wang Yuyan and Lianxing.

Wang Yuyan wanted to capture Murong Fu and force Murong Bo to compromise, thus ending the siege. However, Chen Liu had a different idea. After hearing Wang Yuyan say that Murong Bo's injuries hadn't healed yet and that Wang Yuyan and Lian Xing could stop him together, Chen Liu wanted to keep Murong Bo here forever.

Chapter 270 Murong Bo (Part )

Murong Bo now felt like vomiting blood. Although Chen Liu had given up on threatening him by capturing his son alive and instead came to besiege him, he didn't feel much better.

If he were still in his prime, he wouldn't be afraid of ten more, let alone Chen Liu, Wang Yuyan, and Lian Xing. Even if he could exert even half his peak strength, he wouldn't be afraid of Chen Liu, Wang Yuyan, and Lian Xing. But his current strength has declined significantly. Even with a full-strength attack, he couldn't cause much damage to Chen Liu, Wang Yuyan, and Lian Xing, who possessed the Murong family's Dou Zhuan Xing Yi and Yi Hua Palace's Yi Hua Jie Mu skills. They could use Dou Zhuan Xing Yi and Yi Hua Jie Mu to deflect most of his attack force or reflect it back to him.

Murong Bo used to be very proud that his family had the skill of Dou Zhuan Xing Yi, but when his family's Dou Zhuan Xing Yi was used on his enemies, he felt so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.

What made Murong Bo a little crazy was that he had no idea where Wang Yuyan and Chen Liu learned these strange moves. Their hands could actually perform different martial arts moves at the same time, making one person act like two people. Suddenly encountering this kind of fighting style, he was a little flustered for a while, and even suffered a little loss because of it.

"The Lingbo Weibu of the Xiaoyao Sect, the Tianshan Zhemei Hand of the Tianshan Lingjiu Palace, and the Baihong Palm of Li Qiushui of Western Xia? How do you know these skills?" What surprised Murong Bo the most was that Chen Liu and Wang Yuyan also mastered the top skills of three different forces at the same time, which scared him.

The Xiaoyao Sect was originally a hidden sect, known only to a limited number. Furthermore, due to a personal conflict between the three elders, the sect split into three, leaving them without contact for decades. Consequently, even fewer people now know that the Xiaoyao Sect, the Tianshan Lingjiu Palace, and Li Qiushui of Western Xia are affiliated with the sect. Murong Bo knew of the Xiaoyao Sect, the Tianshan Lingjiu Palace, and Li Qiushui, the Western Xia Concubine, but was unaware of their affiliation. How could he not be astonished to discover that Chen Liu and Wang Yuyan possessed the top-tier techniques of these three factions?

Wang Yuyan's eyes rolled when she heard this, and she smiled sweetly, "Uncle, don't you know? My grandfather is the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, Wuyazi, my grandmother is Li Qiushui, and the Tianshan Tonglao of the Lingjiu Palace is my uncle-master."

"Is your grandfather the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect? Your grandmother is the Western Xia Concubine Li Qiushui? Is the Tianshan Child-Fairy your uncle?" Murong Bo felt his scalp tingling when he heard this.

He didn't know about the Xiaoyao Sect's leader, Wuyazi, but Li Qiushui of Xixia and Tonglao of Tianshan were both Grandmasters, so he assumed the Xiaoyao Sect's Wuyazi was quite powerful. Was the power behind Wang Yuyan so formidable? Murong Bo had no idea. If he had known, not only would he have forced Murong Fu to marry Wang Yuyan, even if she had, even if she had.

This wasn't just marrying a woman; it was marrying the largest dowry in the history of the martial arts world. By marrying Wang Yuyan, he could establish connections with Xixia, the Lingjiu Palace, and even the hidden Xiaoyao Sect. He could even leverage Wang Yuyan's relationship with Xixia's Concubine Li Qiushui to borrow troops from Xixia.

Moreover, with Wang Yuyan's powerful backers, would he still dare to kill her and Li Qingluo today? Murong Bo had no idea that the Tianshan Tonglao of the Lingjiu Palace and Li Qiushui of Western Xia were sworn enemies, nor that Wuyazi was already dead. After Wang Yuyan deliberately revealed her identity and background, it gave him the illusion that unless he killed everyone on the island today, if even one person escaped, he would face pursuit and retaliation from the three major forces.

No wonder Wang Yuyan suddenly transformed from an ordinary person into a Grandmaster. Murong Bo felt as if he had suddenly realized something. If she hadn't had these three major forces as her backing, how could she have made the breakthrough from an ordinary person to a Grandmaster in such a short time?

After knowing Wang Yuyan's identity and background, Murong Bo became a little hesitant to take action, and this was also Wang Yuyan's purpose.

Wang Yuyan giggled and said, "Uncle, do you know my grandparents' master, Xiaoyaozi?"

Murong Bo's heart skipped a beat. Oh no! There was an old immortal named Xiaoyaozi in Xiaoyao Sect. It was said that Xiaoyaozi had already reached the state of a celestial being.

Murong Bo had already begun to consider retiring. Compared to Murong Fu, Murong Bo was more tolerant. After the Yanmen Pass incident that led to the war between the Song and Liao dynasties, he hid in a cave for over a decade to avoid being pursued by the Shaolin Temple and the Beggars' Sect. It wasn't until Murong Fu grew up and became more sensible that Murong Bo taught him everything he needed to know. Then, he faked his death and went to Shaolin Temple to steal the secret manual.

Even though Wang Yuyan was the culprit that caused his Murong family to be destroyed and forced to flee, compared to offending three major forces at the same time, plus a master of the Heavenly Realm, it seemed that the loss was not that significant. As long as he and Murong Fu were still alive, their Murong family could make a comeback.

However, Murong Bo wanted to retreat, but Wang Yuyan and Chen Liu did not want to let him go. Wang Yuyan also saw that Murong Bo was seriously injured and his power was greatly reduced, so they were not without a chance to take him down.

"Husband, sword!" Zhou Zhiruo appeared at the door, holding the sword of the Heavenly Sword in her hand.

The moment Chen Liu mentioned the word "sword," Zhou Zhiruo immediately realized he needed the Heavenly Sword. Although her reaction was a bit slower than Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan, she was the first to think of helping Chen Liu get the sword. So, while Huang Rong and Mu Nianci went to fetch the others, she ran out to help Chen Liu get the sword.

Chen Liu dodged and jumped out of the circle. With a wave of his hand, the Yitian Sword automatically came out of its sheath under the influence of his true energy and flew towards him.

With the Heavenly Sword in hand, the world is mine! I can finally unleash the improved Thirteen Deadly Swords.

In fact, the Dugu Nine Swords were no worse than the Thirteen Deadly Swords, and were even stronger. Wang Yuyan had used the Dugu Nine Swords to break Chen Liu's Fourteenth Sword several times, but in terms of power and lethality, the Fourteenth Deadly Sword was indeed stronger than the Dugu Nine Swords.

During this period, Chen Liu also worked with Wang Yuyan to study and use the idea of ​​the Dugu Nine Swords to exploit the flaws in people's moves to reverse-deduce the Thirteen Deadly Swords and improve them. Now the Thirteen Deadly Swords' sword moves have become more bizarre and more powerful.

Now that Wang Yuyan and Lianxing are helping to hold him back, Chen Liu can try to use the Fourteenth Deadly Sword to injure Murong Bo. If he can injure him, then his chances of keeping him here today will be greater.

"Sword One!" Chen Liu's body rushed towards Murong Bo again like a ghost, and the sword in his hand was like a poisonous snake, piercing Murong Bo's throat.

Sword One is the new name given to the first sword of the improved Thirteen Deadly Swords by the Chenliu Gang. He felt that the names of the Thirteen Deadly Swords were too complicated to pronounce, and were not as simple, rough and refreshing as the name of Sword Twenty-Three of the Wind and Cloud Sword Saint.

Wang Yuyan and Lianxing immediately cooperated with each other in perfect harmony. Lianxing used the Yihua Palace's unique skill, the "Transplanting Flowers and Trees," to restrain Murong Bo. Wang Yuyan alternated between the "Tianshan Zhemei Hand" with her right hand and the "White Rainbow Palm" with her left hand, then the "Chanhe Finger" with her left hand and the "Liuyang Palm" with her right hand, constantly changing her martial arts moves while using words to distract Murong Bo.

Chapter 271 Murong Bo (Part )

Although Murong Bo wanted to leave, he would lose face if he did so. Moreover, his Murong family and Wang Yuyan had already formed a feud. Even if he wanted to leave, he should at least resolve the feud with her first.

But how to resolve it?

Two swords!

While Murong Bo was still thinking about how to resolve the grudge with Wang Yuyan, Chen Liu's second fatal sword followed the first sword and stabbed Murong Bo again.

Three swords!

……

Chen Liu unleashed his sword, the Thirteen Deadly Swords growing in power. Suddenly, the vital energy of heaven and earth converged frantically, and the sword in Chen Liu's hand radiated a brilliant light. The restaurant, already shattered by their released zhenqi and extinguished by the candles and lanterns, was now illuminated.

Wang Yuyan and Lianxing quickly changed positions to avoid the attack direction of the fatal fourteenth sword, and guarded Chen Liu on the left and right.

Murong Bo's face changed slightly. He also felt that Chen Liu's move could pose a threat to him, and even made him tremble. However, when Murong Bo wanted to retreat to avoid it, he found that his body seemed to be suppressed and pulled by the vitality of heaven and earth. His movements became somewhat sluggish and his speed was also affected.

Countless invisible sword energies cut through the darkness, pierced the night sky, and headed towards Murong Bo.

Huang Rong, Mu Nianci, Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and the other girls stayed close to the restaurant after leaving, surrounding it with swords drawn and ready for action. However, those whose strength was below the Xiantian stage had temporarily hidden themselves at their request.

The Grandmasters' Battle is not something they can participate in now. Although there is only one major realm difference, in this world, the gap between realms is too huge.

Perhaps during the day, gifted women like Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao, and Wanwan could rely on their advanced cultivation techniques and skills to barely compete with ordinary Grandmasters, or even defeat weaker ones. However, in the dark, their vision would be affected, and they could only fight by instinct. Grandmasters with divine awareness could see in the dark, which greatly limited their ability to exert their strength.

Huang Rong, Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao and Wanwan had all re-entered the restaurant, but after the candles and lanterns in the restaurant were extinguished, they could not even see the environment inside clearly, let alone help, so they could only retreat again and wait outside.

"Sisters, who do you think will win?" Zhong Ling asked with some concern.

"My husband will definitely win." Zhou Zhiruo said confidently.

Huang Rong also nodded and said, "Brother Chenliu will win."

"Are you so sure that Brother Chen Liu will win?" Zhong Ling was a little surprised.

Huang Rong smiled and said, "Sister Ling'er, what kind of person do you think Brother Chen Liu is?"

"Brother Chenliu?" Zhong Ling was stunned for a moment and said, "Brother Chenliu is a, a..."

As Zhong Ling spoke, she lost track of how to evaluate him. She had never thought about this question before. In her mind, Chen Liu had always been a mysterious, interesting, lustful, and knowledgeable outsider. However, Huang Rong's question was clearly not about this, but when asked to evaluate Chen Liu, she didn't know how to do it.

Huang Rong's question also caught the attention of Mu Nianci, Mu Wanqing, and Shi Feixuan, who couldn't help but ponder. Chen left a different impression on each of them, but they shared a few common points: he was magical, interesting, extremely talented, and lustful but respectful of women.

Mu Nianci felt that Chen Liu was a very responsible husband who loved them very much. Even if he had a slight preference for one woman, such as Wang Yuyan or Lin Shiyin, he would never neglect them and would try his best to treat them equally. This made Mu Nianci feel respected, so even if Chen Liu had more and more women, she was happy with it.

Mu Wanqing felt that Chen Liu was a womanizer. It would be better if he had fewer women and spent more time with her.

Zhou Zhiruo felt that Chen Liu had a very powerful background. Even if he wasn't an immortal, he was at least a descendant of one. Otherwise, how could he have such a magical treasure as the system to protect him? This was also the reason why she was determined to betray her master and follow him.

Shi Feixuan, Qin Mengyao and Wanwan knew Chen Liu the latest. Most of their knowledge about Chen Liu came from Wang Yuyan's retelling, and their impression of him was that he was magical, had good kidneys, and knew a lot of inside stories and rare treasures in the world.

Huang Rong smiled and said, "Actually, Brother Chen Liu is a very fearful, life-loving, and cautious person."

"Ah!" The girls couldn't help but exclaim in surprise when they heard this.

Zhong Ling suddenly realized something and said repeatedly, "Yes, yes, Brother Chen Liu is indeed a very cautious person. When I first met Brother Chen Liu, he was just an ordinary person without any martial arts skills. You don't know how cautious he was back then. Brother Chen Liu never ate at any inn or restaurant, he always bought food to take away, and he would test anything he bought with small animals to see if it was poisonous before he would eat it."

Zhong Ling smiled and said, "When I first met Brother Chen Liu, I thought he was quite interesting and extremely cautious, as if the whole world was full of bad people. But even with all his caution, Brother Chen Liu still fell for a few Baiyi thieves and was hit by a club. If I hadn't been right behind him at the time, Brother Chen Liu might have died."

"Ah? My husband was hit by a club?" Mu Nianci and Zhou Zhiruo were both shocked. "Doesn't my husband have immortal treasures and immortals to protect him?"

"I don't know either." Zhong Ling thought about it, but couldn't figure it out, so she said in a daze.

"Sister Ling'er had been following Brother Chenliu for a long time, right?" Huang Rong asked.

"I've been following him for a few days." Zhong Ling said.

"That's right. The immortal must have known that Sister Ling'er would save Brother Chenliu, so he didn't intervene." Huang Rong said, "And didn't Brother Chenliu say that his immortal treasure is out of energy? Perhaps we need to find something to replenish its energy first to activate the immortal treasure so that it can protect its master."

Huang Rong's guess made sense. The girls thought that this was the case and nodded unconsciously.
