Zhu Tian: Starting from the World of Zongwu

As soon as the sword was drawn, even if I was watching from several miles away, my mind was immersed in the sword intent and I couldn't extricate myself. I even had an urge to die under the sword of the flying fairy.

I just want to ask, who can resist such a sword?"

"That may not be the case!" someone was unconvinced. "Although Tianwai Feixian is powerful, Sword God Ximen Chuxue is also a master who practices the sword. His sword is said to be as fast as lightning, and no one who fights with him survives. He may not be inferior to Ye Gucheng."

"Hey, I won't give in to you guys bragging about swordsmanship. If you ask me, the most powerful one is still Li Xunhuan, the Little Li Flying Dagger.

"Little Li's flying daggers never miss their target. To this day, no one has ever been known to dodge one. Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue are formidable in close combat, but if Li Xunhuan were to launch a flying dagger from a distance, how would you respond?"

"Haha, there are still people praising Li Xun Huan?" A thin old man stood up and said disdainfully, "Don't forget, everyone, not long ago, Li Xun Huan was trapped and captured by his good brother Long Xiaoyun.

If the mysterious master of Xuanmen had not stepped forward, even the Shaolin monks would have had to give him face, and Li Xunhuan would have been beaten to death that day as the Plum Blossom Thief.

Is this even worth bragging about?"

"Li Xunhuan was ambushed and betrayed by the person he trusted the most!" someone explained.

"So what?" The thin old man chuckled and said, "A true master has no weaknesses. If he can be ambushed, it means he has weaknesses.

Have you ever heard that Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuxue were ambushed?

Also, I agree with what you said about Xiao Li's flying dagger never missing a target, but although his flying dagger is accurate, its penetrating power is a little lacking.

That day in Baoding City, the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva went to trouble Li Xunhuan. Li Xunhuan threw several flying knives, but although they stabbed the opponent, they were unable to kill him. In fact, some of his flying knives were even chewed up and eaten by the opponent.

"what?"

Many people did not know about this matter. After hearing what the old man said, they gathered around and urged him to explain it in detail.

But the thin old man took out a gavel from his arms and slammed it heavily on the table.

"Let's talk about the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva. She is one of the most powerful masters in the Demon Cult. The magic skill she practices is called the Iron Chewing Technique, which is one of the highest magic skills in the Demon Cult.

After reaching a high level of cultivation, he is invulnerable to swords and spears, and feeds on metal and iron. Even Xiao Li's flying dagger can only pierce but not kill. This shows the extent of his physical defense! "

Everyone was shocked when they heard this.

"The Iron Chewing Technique, eating gold and iron, is there such a magical skill in this world?"

"If even a master like Xiao Li Feidao can't do anything to her, then doesn't that mean the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva is invincible?"

"Brother, please continue. What happened next?"

"Follow-up!"

The old man took a sip of tea and said leisurely, "The Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva is dead!"

"Dead? Didn't you say Li Xun Huan couldn't do anything to him? Then how did that demonic cult monster die?"

The old man said in a deep voice: "He died by a sword. Someone pierced his head with a sword and died on the spot!"

Chapter 159 This guy has a real problem with his brain

Wow~~

There was an uproar in Liu's mansion.

"Even Xiao Li's flying dagger couldn't pierce the head, but someone pierced it with a sword?"

"So, doesn't that mean the power of that sword far exceeds Li Xunhuan's flying knife?"

"Whose sword is it? Is it the Sword Saint Ye Gucheng, or the Sword God Ximen Chuxue? Or is it the great hero Yan Nantian?"

"Neither!" The thin old man stroked his beard and smiled faintly, "The man who attacked was drinking with Li Xunhuan in the restaurant that day. He was the master of Xuanmen who rescued Li Xunhuan that day!"

"Old sir, who exactly is the Master of Xuanmen? Could you please tell me in detail?"

"The title of Master of Xuanmen sounds unfamiliar. Could it be that he is a master who has just entered the martial arts world recently?"

The thin old man just drank his tea with a smile. He neither spoke nor refused. He just held the gavel and looked at everyone with a smile.

At that moment, a man of the Jianghu who was good at handling things pulled out a silver ingot from his sleeve and said, "Old sir, can you tell me now?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw that the silver in his hand had disappeared. When he looked again, he saw the thin old man clearing his throat and continuing to speak.

Seeing this, everyone was shocked. They were all from the martial arts world, and although their martial arts skills varied, they all had the necessary eyesight. There was no doubt that the old storyteller in front of them was definitely a true master.

That’s right, if he wasn’t so powerful, how could he know the secrets of so many innate masters?

"The master of the Xuan Sect is named Song Xuan. According to him, he is the current head of the hidden sect 'Hunyuan Wuji Xuanmen Tianzong'.

The first time he appeared in the martial arts world, he rescued Li Xunhuan from the hands of Shaolin Master Xinmei. After that, he killed the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva with one sword. Since then, his name began to spread in the circle of innate masters.

In addition, the embroidery thief Jin Jiuling, who caused a big mess in Huguang Prefecture some time ago and blinded many innate masters, also died at the hands of the Lord of Xuanmen.

Speaking of the Master of Xuanmen, you may not be familiar with him, but his sister, Shura Sword Song Qian, should be familiar to you, right? "

"Shura Sword Song Qian?"

Some people expressed doubts, but more people suddenly realized: "Is she the female knight who castrated Tian Boguang in Huiyan Tower yesterday?"

“Although Tian Boguang is a bad person, he has strong abilities. However, he is as weak as a baby in the hands of the Shura Sword.

I was wondering when a master like Shura Sword appeared in this world, but if she is the sister of the Master of Xuanmen, it is not difficult to understand. "

"Old sir, I'd like to ask if there is any way to join the Xuanmen Tianzong?"

The thin old man shook his head. "Things like this can only be left to chance. There's no such thing as a special plan. Let's get back to the previous topic. Who is the number one person under the Mingzhou martial arts master Sanfeng?"

"Old sir, do you mean that the Master of Xuanmen is the first person?"

The thin old man smiled and said, "Although I'm not sure, he is one of the candidates for the first place. Unfortunately, the other party has not fought against Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuxue, Yan Nantian and others, so there is no clear statement about this first place."

"Old sir!"

At this time, Victoria Song, who was wearing a bamboo hat, stood up and asked, "Old sir, you are not an ordinary person. I wonder who you think is the best martial artist in Mingzhou martial arts world after the Grandmaster?"

The thin old man looked in the direction of the sound, and his expression became strange when he saw Song Qian and others wearing straw hats in the corner.

After coughing twice, the old man said in a deep voice: "There are only a few top-level Xiantian masters, but in my opinion, the most powerful one is Song Xuan, the master of Xuanmen!"

"Oh? Why is that?"

The old man smiled and said, “Although Li Xun Huan has many weaknesses and I do not like his temperament, it is undeniable that his flying knife is definitely one of the most terrifying attacks in the world.

Even Xiao Li Feidao couldn't kill someone, but was killed instantly by the master of Xuanmen with a single sword strike. Based on this alone, I feel that he deserves the title of the number one person under the Grandmaster! "

Song Qian threw out a silver ingot and sat down with satisfaction.

She always liked to brag about how great her brother was. Not only did she like to brag herself, she also liked to listen to others brag. The answer from the old storyteller in front of her made her very satisfied.

Everyone in the room was talking about the famous masters in the martial arts world, and Song Xuan listened quietly.

His current state is that of an idle street urchin. When people are free from pressure and relaxed, they will find it very interesting even to listen to their own gossip.

At this moment, he suddenly heard the sound of gongs and drums outside the door. Song Xuan looked up and saw many government officials walking on the street outside the door.

Afterwards, Liu Zhengfeng, wearing a brand new silk robe, hurried out of the hall, rushed to the door, and bowed to an official.

Seeing officials coming here and then seeing Liu Zhengfeng's attitude, many martial artists in the scene subconsciously frowned and showed displeasure on their faces.

Liu Zhengfeng, you are a man of the martial arts world. Today you have retired from the underworld, and we, the people in the martial arts world, are here to support you. But what do you mean by involving people from the government?

As everyone was watching, the official took out a decree of appointment from his arms, appointing Liu Zhengfeng as the lieutenant general of Lianghe Prefecture in Mingzhou.

Liu Zhengfeng accepted it with pleasure.

It was not uncommon for people in the martial arts world to surrender to the imperial court and be appointed as officials. People in the martial arts world have always been ashamed of those martial artists who were willing to become the imperial court's lackeys.

Lieutenant General, this position is not low. Although everyone with a discerning eye knows that Liu Zhengfeng only got a nominal position without real power, the warriors present were still disgusted by his actions.

We came here to support you and bear witness to you, and you ended up doing this?

If they had known this would happen today, they wouldn’t even have come!

"Brother, did Liu Zhengfeng buy an official position with money?" Song Qian asked in a low voice while drinking tea.

"Hmm!" Song Xuan nodded and smiled, "Our emperor was so desperate for money that he even sold official positions. He would sell some powerless positions as long as he was paid enough silver.

It is said that this is a considerable source of income for the imperial court.”

Song Qian was speechless. "Selling official positions and titles, this court is really rotten. If Taizu wasn't still around, they would have been doomed sooner or later if they kept doing this."

Song Xuan waved his hand and said, "Let's not discuss the above matters today. Let's just watch the show from now on."

Song Xuan has a clear understanding of his own position and knows how to do things within his capabilities.

He is still just an innate warrior, not a martial arts master or a grand master. As for supporting the country and benefiting the people, it is not his business to get involved.

Song Qian said "oh" and couldn't help but sneer at Liu Zhengfeng, who was very happy after getting the rank of lieutenant general.

"This man is truly mentally ill. He accepted an official position in the imperial court before even retiring. If an enemy came looking for him today, I'm afraid even the Hengshan Sect behind him wouldn't stand up for him!"

Chapter 160 Old Yue, long time no see

When he said this, Ah Fei immediately nodded in agreement: "That's right, this guy is dead!"

"Oh?"

Song Xuan smiled and said, "A Fei, do you think so too?"

Ah Fei subconsciously touched his bald head and said, "The Jianghu and the imperial court have always been clearly separated and generally do not interfere with each other.

The military officials of the imperial court hated the knights in the martial arts world for breaking the law with force, but at the same time, the people in the martial arts world also called them the lackeys of the imperial court, and they disliked each other.

Now that Liu Zhengfeng has taken up an official position in the imperial court, he has become a lackey of the imperial court in the eyes of the warriors present. If something unexpected happens when he retires from the imperial court, it can be basically judged that no one will be willing to stand up for him.

He is in danger next!"

Song Xuan nodded. It's true, although Ah Fei has the attribute of a bootlicker, he is very clear-headed when it comes to other things. Those who can make a name for themselves in the world are indeed not ordinary people.

Liu Zhengfeng didn't know that he had made a bad move.

He is in a good mood at the moment.

Today, he retired from the underworld and clung to the imperial court again, holding the title of lieutenant general, which means he has a backer after retiring from the underworld.

I think even if someone wants to cause trouble for him in the future, they will have to consider the power of the court behind him.

In fact, he was not wrong to think so. If he could successfully retire from the underworld and have the status of a lieutenant general, ordinary people would not dare to provoke him.

But the prerequisite is that he must successfully retire today.

The imperial court and the underworld have always had a tacit understanding. As long as they don't cross the line, the two sides basically do not interfere with each other.

Before he retired from the underworld, Liu Zhengfeng was still a member of the underworld. As long as he was a member of the underworld, the imperial court would not interfere in the grudges and vendettas in the underworld.

In the plot of The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, Zuo Lengchan of the Songshan Sect saw this clearly, and deliberately took advantage of the moment when Liu Zhengfeng retired to launch a sudden attack, exposing his collusion with the demon sect elder Qu Yang, and then killed his entire family to establish his authority.

As for today, whether Zuo Lengchan can still kill Liu Zhengfeng's entire family as in the plot, it is hard to say.

Putting aside whether Song Xuan would take action, even if he didn't, Yue Buqun, who had practiced the Evil-Defeating Sword Technique and advanced to the Innate Realm, would definitely find a way to stop him.

Based on his understanding of Yue Buqun, the leader of the Gentleman Sword Yue Sect would definitely not miss such a good opportunity to establish his authority.

Zuo Lengchan wants to kill Liu Zhengfeng to establish his authority and intimidate other high-ranking officials of the Five Mountains Sword Sect, while Yue Buqun also wants to kill Zuo Lengchan to establish his authority and seize the position of leader of the Five Mountains.

Thinking of this, Song Xuan suddenly became interested.

Today will definitely be very lively.

In the courtyard of the Liu Mansion, the originally lively and noisy scene began to cool down. The people present who were originally talking in low voices stared at Mr. Liu San with unhappy expressions.

Liu Zhengfeng seemed unaware of it and exchanged pleasantries with the official who came to announce the imperial edict for a while. After seeing him off, his disciples had already placed a golden basin that was half a foot long and shone brightly on the coffee table.

At this time, the basin was already filled with clean water. Suddenly, firecrackers were set off outside the door. Everyone understood that Liu Zhengfeng was going to retire from criminal activities.

"Thank you all for coming to my retirement ceremony. From today on, I will be leaving the underworld and will no longer be a member of it. If I have offended you in the past, I hope you will forgive me!"

As he spoke, he rolled up his sleeves, stretched out his hands, and was about to put them in the basin, preparing to complete the last step of his retirement.

As long as he finishes these, he will no longer be a member of the martial arts world, but will be a lieutenant general of the imperial court. Anyone in the martial arts world who dares to touch him will have to think carefully.

However, just as he was about to put his hand into the basin, a strong voice suddenly came from outside the door.

"Wait a minute!"

As soon as the sound was heard, Victoria Song, who was originally a little bored, suddenly became excited and started to make trouble.

But outside the gate, four men in yellow shirts walked in quickly. After entering the gate, they stood on both sides and guarded the gate.

Outside the door, several more people came, one of them holding up a five-colored silk flag that was decorated with pearls and gems. When he waved it casually, it emitted a brilliant light.
