Not far away from the foot of the mountain where Ye Xing and the others were resting, there was a rather hidden small valley. There was a small village in the valley. The village was not large, with only a few dozen households. At the center of the village was a relatively large house. On the door were the words 'Martial Arts Hall' written in Chu language! At this moment, miserable screams were constantly coming from the martial arts hall.
In the room, a valiant and upright young man swept his leg 360 degrees and forced the people who surrounded him to retreat. One of them was a little slower and unfortunately, he was hit and his body flew into the air! The young man's eyes lit up and he quickly got up. With a backswing kick, he sent the guy who was a little slower flying backward and then fell to the ground!
The other people surrounding the young man looked at each other and tightened their grip on their wooden weapons. For a moment, they were hesitant.
The young man looked at the remaining five people and smiled."
"All of you, come at me together!"
The others subconsciously looked at a middle-aged man in the crowd. The middle-aged man smiled and nodded. The five people who received the signal waved the wooden swords in their hands and shouted as they charged at the young man.
Seeing the five people surrounding him, the young man did not retreat. Instead, he advanced. He quickly ran a few times and arrived in front of the first person who was running. Instinctively, the person swung his sword at the young man. The young man did not even look at him and grabbed the person's wrist with his right hand. With a force, the person screamed and his wooden sword fell to the ground.
The young man took advantage of the situation and turned around halfway, retreating into the man's arms. At the same time, he restricted the man's movements and faced the man who wanted to ambush him with a sword. At the same time, his left arm elbowed backward. The eyes of the person behind the young man bulged and he collapsed to the ground.
In the first second, one person fell to the ground.
In the next second, the young man faced the person who had ambushed him from behind. With a swift kick, he sent the weapon in his hand flying. Then, with another kick, he sent the person flying. At this moment, two people rushed up from his left and right at the same time with swords in their hands. The young man did not panic. Just as the two of them were about to surround him, the young man soared into the air and attacked with both legs at the same time. The two people who surrounded him were sent flying at the same time.
At this time, it was only the fourth second on the field. At this time, there was only one person holding a sword on the field. The last person was a little stunned and his body stopped for a moment. However, before he could react, the youth quickly took a few steps and a forward punch followed by a bang! At the fifth second, the young man clapped his hands and the battle ended.
The surrounding crowd burst into cheers! Amidst the cheers, the six people who fell to the ground all screamed and got up. One of the slightly plump people rubbed his shoulder and complained,"Young Master, you're really so serious. Every time I practice with you, I get injured!”
When the young man heard the complaints, he justified himself and said,"If we were really facing an enemy and weren't serious, then it wouldn't be a problem of getting injured! Uncle Liang, am I right?"
The middle-aged man in yellow nodded in agreement.
At this moment, a sharp sound came from afar. Everyone's expressions changed. The middle-aged man and the old man beside him also became serious. The young man reacted quickly and quickly pushed open the window to look at the flashing light in the distance.
"Enemies are invading!" The middle-aged man shouted in a deep voice!
The young man turned around and ran towards the door. At the same time, he shouted,"Enemies! Everyone, prepare to defend!”
However, before the young man could get close to the door, he was stopped by a voice." Stop!”When the young man heard this calm and steady voice, he braked and stopped. He helplessly turned his head to look at the white-haired old man beside the middle-aged man.
"Uncle Liang, bring some people to investigate the situation! Leave ten people to protect the village. Shaoyu, you stay in the village.”The old man calmly ordered.
"Understood. Leave it to me!" The middle-aged man replied. At the same time, he shouted at the people around him,"Take your weapons and follow me!"
Young Shaoyu was dumbfounded when he heard the old man's words." Master Fan, why can't I go?!"”
The old man clasped his hands behind his back and said indifferently,"The commander of the army must be able to oversee the three armies and command them calmly. If he makes a fuss when there is a split, he will make the mistake of being impatient! En, do you understand?"
Shaoyu looked at Master Fan sternly lecturing him and stuck out his tongue. Then, he tiptoed and followed Uncle Liang out. Uncle Liang was a little stunned when he saw Shaoyu's actions. However, after seeing his pleading actions, he only shook his head and did not say anything. He only sped up his actions.
At this time, the old man slowly finished his lecture, but he did not hear anyone's response. He turned around in shock and saw that there was no one else in the martial arts hall. The old man snorted angrily and almost pulled his white beard off. He gritted his teeth in pain.
When Shaoyu followed Uncle Liang to the place where the fireworks alarm was, he saw their people holding long guns and surrounding the three people in the middle.
One of the older men was lying on the grass, not reacting to their arrival. The remaining two were teenagers, one of whom was holding a sword and looked extremely angry at the surrounding people. Facing their encirclement, he kept pointing the sword in his hand at them and said with a stern expression,"You're not allowed to come over, or I won't be polite!”
The other young man among the three looked a little strange. He was dressed in white and was leaning lazily against a rock that was half the height of a person. He was holding a fat roasted pheasant leg in his right hand and eating it with relish. At the same time, he was observing the people surrounding them with interest. He was so relaxed that it was as if they were not the ones being surrounded.
What Shaoyu saw was such a somewhat strange scene. However, after seeing the white-robed youth's leisurely appearance, he and Uncle Liang, who was beside him, looked at each other. Their eyes were somewhat puzzled and somewhat solemn.
At the same time, Ye Xing, who had been waiting for a long time, finally had the main character appear. His eyes stared straight at Shaoyu without blinking. Facing Ye Xing's fiery gaze, Shaoyu felt it for the first time. Facing such a fiery gaze, Shaoyu's expression was a little embarrassed. He subconsciously recalled the strange hobbies of some of the Chu nobles that he had heard from others before!
A bad thought suddenly flashed through Shaoyu's mind. Could it be that this person…Shaoyu swallowed his saliva with difficulty. It was as if there were countless ants crawling on his body. If Ye Xing knew what Shaoyu was thinking at this time, he would definitely vomit blood.
At this moment, Tian Ming looked at Xiang Liang and Shao Yu, who were the last to walk over, and the extraordinary temperament they faintly revealed. He knew that they were the leaders, so he shouted loudly at them,"Who are you?"
Facing Tianming's questioning, Shaoyu tried his best to break away from the influence that Ye Xing had brought to him. The carefree and unrestrained manner he had at the beginning was no longer there. His expression was somewhat ugly as he asked,"I should be the one asking you this!”
At this moment, Xiang Liang's eyes quickly scanned his surroundings. His focus was mainly on Ye Xing and Ge Nia, who had fallen to the ground. His many years of battlefield experience told Xiang Liang that this person who had fallen to the ground was very dangerous! "Who's that lying on the ground?" he asked in a deep voice.”
Facing Xiang Liang and Shaoyu who were charging straight in, Tianming waved the long sword in his hand and shouted,""You're not allowed to come over!"
Xiang Liang ignored the wary Tianming and said to himself,""This person is seriously injured. Who injured him?”
Ye Xing's eyes lit up. Good taste! Tianming gritted his teeth and said,"This has nothing to do with you!"”
Xiang Liang smiled at Tianming's wariness and did not ask further. Instead, he asked,""Then what happened here just now?”
Facing Xiang Liang's question, Tian Ming's eyes rolled up as he recalled,""I just started a fire and roasted a pheasant, and you bunch of living ghosts suddenly rushed over!”
In the face of Tianming Living Ghost's words, a person with a spear in his hand said with an ugly expression,"Don't talk nonsense!"
Tianming snorted coldly and muttered softly," I was talking about you. You gave me a fright."”Tianming's muttering made the man's expression turn even uglier!
Shaoyu's gaze quickly swept over the drumstick in Ye Xing's hand and the two incomplete roast chickens on the ground, muttering,""Roast pheasant!" Then, he turned his gaze to the Abyss Rainbow Sword in Tianming's hand.
Because the Chu Country was rich in famous swords and there were many people who loved swords, all the officials and nobles in the Chu Country had a certain understanding of swords. Shaoyu also knew a little, so when he first arrived, he noticed that the sword in Tianming's hand was a rare good sword.
Generally, when sword lovers saw a good sword, they would want to appraise it. Therefore, Shaoyu was excited and wanted to observe it. He even selectively ignored Ye Xing's gaze.
At this time, Shaoyu called out to Xiang Liang,""Uncle Liang, look at the sword in that kid's hand!”Xiang Liang was also a person who loved swords. Earlier, because he was observing his surroundings, he did not pay too much attention to it. At this time, after Shaoyu's reminder, he carefully looked at the sword in Tianming's hand. His eyes lit up. He looked from the hilt to the blade, and then from the blade to the hilt. He praised in his heart!
"Little fellow, where did you get that sword in your hand?”Tianming looked at Xiang Liang's expression and forcefully held back the vulgarities that he wanted to blurt out. His eyes turned and he decided to tell the truth,"This is my uncle's!"”
"Let me take a look!" Shaoyu glanced at the unconscious Ge Nia and said calmly.
"Why?!" Tianming rejected without thinking!
Xiang Liang looked at Shaoyu and knew what his nephew was thinking. As someone who loved swords, he also wanted to take a look, so he did not stop him. However, he looked at the unconscious Ge Nia and Ye Xing, who was leisurely watching the show, and said,"Shaoyu, be careful. They are a little strange!”Shaoyu responded and then walked towards Tianming with a smile on his face," I'm just looking at it. I'll return it to you after I'm done!"”
"No!" Tianming refused again.
"It's very difficult for me to refuse!" Shaoyu's mouth carried a mocking smile as he slowly approached Tianming. Facing Shaoyu's approach, Tianming tightened his grip on the sword in his hand. Suddenly, Shaoyu grabbed Tianming's wrist, and Tianming also slashed at Shaoyu with his sword!
At the critical moment, Shaoyu turned his body to the side extremely calmly and dodged Tianming's sword. However, his hand had no choice but to move away from Tianming. Tianming's sword technique changed from a slash to a horizontal slash! Shaoyu seemed to have already predicted Tianming's change. He dodged with a metal bridge. Tianming changed his move again, slashing at Shaoyu's waist diagonally, but Shaoyu dodged it with a beautiful flip.
A few short exchanges caused the onlookers to exclaim in surprise. This was not the usual practice of wooden swords. If he was not careful, he would die. Looking at this unbrilliant but extremely dangerous exchange, Xiang Liang could not help but shout to his only nephew,"Shaoyu, be careful!"
As Tianming and Shaoyu continued to fight, Ye Xing's eyes lit up. Tianming's sword art could be said to have improved at a godly speed compared to before. This aptitude was indeed inherited from Jing Ke and Li Ji.
Tianming made people marvel that Shaoyu wasn't bad either. Every move, every style, and every evasion was extremely simple. His fist and leg skills were not bad, and he was filled with a capable temperament. He had the style of an army.
In a short period of time, Tianming and Shaoyu had exchanged several moves. It could not be said that they had exchanged blows. Ye Xing could see that if Shaoyu had not been worried about hurting Tianming, he would have died upon contact with his strength. It might have been a bit exaggerated, but a serious injury was inevitable. Ye Xing could see that he was restraining his strength, so his somewhat tense body relaxed.
Suddenly, Shaoyu saw a flaw in Tianming's attack. He lowered his body and swept his leg, causing Tianming to rise into the air. The Abyss Rainbow Sword also left his hand. Then, Shaoyu elegantly stretched out his hand, and the Abyss Rainbow appeared in his hand. The moment the sword appeared in his hand, Shaoyu's eyes lit up from the touch of the hilt. His body automatically moved with the sword. This flirtatious performance immediately attracted the compliments and cheers of his followers around him.
Shaoyu's left sword finger gently brushed against Yuan Hong's sword. That cold and sharp aura made him unable to help but say,""Good sword!"
At this moment, two people spontaneously stepped out from the crowd, wanting to capture Tianming, who had fallen to the ground and couldn't get up. The actions of these two people caused a cold glint to flash in the eyes of Ye Xing, who was originally watching the show with a smile. His body quickly flashed and appeared beside the two people. Before they could react, he casually hit the arteries on their necks, causing the two people to collapse to the ground!
Ye Xing stretched out his hand and pulled Tianming, who was rubbing his butt, up." Why are you only here now? Uncle's sword has been taken away!"”Tianming said with a voice that was filled with resentment and heartache.
Ye Xing chuckled." If they want to see it, then let them see it. It won't hurt to see it. Besides, they have the advantage in numbers. What can we do if we don't give it to them?!"”
Xiang Liang and Shaoyu, who were gathered together, looked at the sword in their hands while glancing at Ye Xing and the others. They were constantly whispering. The abnormality that happened here was discovered by them at the first moment. They, who originally wanted to flare up, immediately became embarrassed after hearing Ye Xing's words!
In the end, they were indeed in the wrong. Xiang Liang waved his hand to stop the soldiers who wanted to rush forward. The two people who fell to the ground only had their arteries hit and were a little weak, but they were not serious. Although the origin of this sword was very suspicious, just one sword could not determine anything! The cause and effect of this matter was more or less clarified under Tianming's narration.
Therefore, Xiang Liang said," This little brother, don't misunderstand. As Chu... cough cough, we will definitely not do anything to bully others. It's just that your background is indeed a little suspicious. You also hold a sharp sword with the words of the Qin country! That's why we were so anxious. We hope that little brother won't misunderstand.”
Ye Xing looked at Xiang Liang and said it very sincerely. Moreover, for the sake of getting along with Shaoyu in the future, he really did not want to make things awkward, so he took advantage of the situation and continued,""It's good that it's a misunderstanding. Our injuries are small, and they can't withstand the torture! The sword did not mean anything. Everyone could not do something that would hurt their loved ones and make their enemies happy!”
Hearing this, Xiang Liang was stunned. He also understood from Ye Xing's words. He smiled happily and said to the others around him,"Everyone, put away your weapons! This was a misunderstanding. The fiery meteor just now was just a firework that this little brother had accidentally ignited when roasting the pheasant!”
Xiang Liang's words slowly eased the tense atmosphere. Only Shaoyu still had a contemplative look. Suddenly, he said,""Who's on night duty today?"
"It's Ah Long!" someone in the crowd suddenly said.”
"Where is he?"
"Eh, I haven't seen him since just now. Logically speaking, he should be standing guard here!”
After Ye Xing calmed down the angry Tian Ming, he heard their conversation from afar and shouted,"Yuyu, we haven't seen that Ah Long you're talking about since we came!”
Everyone was stunned when they heard that! Then, he came back to his senses and revealed an expression of wanting to laugh but not daring to. At this time, Shaoyu also came back to his senses and his body trembled violently. For a moment, he recalled the 'fiery' gaze that Ye Xing had given him just now! Could it be that he really…No! Shaoyu wailed in his heart and had the urge to run away without caring about anything.
The brawny man who was observing in the forest was very hesitant after seeing Xiang Liang and the others arrive. As one of the Four Heavenly Kings of Quicksand, he was very familiar with the people wanted by the State of Qin. Sometimes, they not only acted as killers, but also did things like bounty hunters!
He wasn't sure just now, but now, he was sure that this group of people was definitely the remnants of the Chu Country. Moreover, they were from the Xiang family, which had the highest bounty. With Ge Nia and the two youths, the money from the bounty was enough for Quicksand to run for more than ten years without doing anything. This made him extremely tempted, but he was also very conflicted. Should he do it or not?
Suddenly, Wu Shuang remembered what Chi Lian had told him in the intelligence report and hardened her heart! Although Wei Zhuang was the boss of Quicksand on the surface, as an old man in Quicksand, Wushuang knew very well that as the sister of the other founder of Quicksand, Chi Lian's status in Quicksand was only slightly below Wei Zhuang.
Although Wu Shuang was a boor and not very smart, she could still analyze the simplest pros and cons. In addition, Ge Nia was seriously injured and unconscious, and the others were no match for him. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. She had to do it!
Having decided, Wushuang did as she said. She grabbed the corpse in her hand and was about to throw it out! However, the next moment, Wushuang paused and rolled her eyes." Watch me, Wushuang!"”
Therefore, Wu Shuang deliberately changed direction and threw the corpse in her hand into the crowd. Then, she quickly changed her position and flew into the air from the back of the somewhat chaotic and vigilant crowd. She circulated her Inner Qi and attacked the back of the crowd!
Just as Wu Shuang was about to hand it over, the voices of a youth and an old man sounded at the same time," Behind! Be careful…"
