"Shameless brat, who in this world doesn't know the names of Beiqiao Peak and Nanmu Rong? Is Young Master Murong's credibility something you can question?”
"Young Master Murong said that this is a real secret manual, so it must be a real secret manual!!”
"If you know what's good for you, quickly release all the hostages. Otherwise, all of us will attack together and tear you apart on the spot!”
Murong Fu was furious, and the martial artists under the tower also started to make a ruckus.?
Many of them had already drawn their weapons and were about to shout," Do you dare to fight me?"
"Hahahaha…"
Ling Xiao looked at them disdainfully and suddenly laughed maniacally, his voice shaking the nine heavens.""Could it be that in the entire Jiangnan martial arts world, there are only a group of people like you who fawn on the powerful? Don't you know how to do anything else besides waving flags and shouting for the Murong family?”
The ridicule and disdain in his voice were not concealed at all, and it directly ignited everyone's anger."Whether the secret manual is real or not, I will tell! However, if you dare to make another noise, I will immediately kill someone for you to see!!”
As he said that, the Wandering Dragon Sword in his hand unceremoniously cut a wound on Bao Butong's face!
With a " chi " sound, blood immediately flowed out of Bao Butong's face. Unfortunately, his mute acupoint was struck, so he couldn't even scream!
"You-"
The crowd instantly lost their voices, and their anger from before was instantly thrown to the clouds. They finally took Ling Xiao seriously…This person who dared to kidnap Young Master Murong was a f * cking lunatic!
At this moment, if anyone were to say a word and cause Bao Butong to be killed, not only would they lose their footing in Jiangnan's martial arts world, Geng Hu would also incur the hatred of the Murong family.
They were not fools. Who didn't know how to wave flags and shout? When it came to their own interests, they all became cowards.
Murong Fu's eyes widened.!”
With a thought, he suddenly came to an old monk under the pagoda and cupped his fists."The retarded master of Cold Mountain Temple is a highly respected monk in Jiangnan's martial arts world. He has always been deeply respected by the martial arts world. You won't believe it if he reads the secret manual to verify its authenticity, right?!!”
Damn it!
Ling Xiao almost laughed out loud. Weirdos existed every year, and there were especially many this year. There was actually a monk with the dharma name 'Retard'?
However, Murong Fu was obviously ruthless. He was actually willing to let an outsider see the secret manual of the Shifting Stars. Either he had great confidence in the character of the retarded master, or…an old monk might die one day?
"Amitabha!"
Master Mentally Retarded looked like an accomplished monk, but his Dharma name was obviously not what Ling Xiao thought it meant. It was the saying of the ten barriers in Buddhism, and the name Mentally Retarded meant to break through the barriers with wisdom.
Cold Mountain Temple was not considered a martial arts sect, and the old monk's martial arts were only second-rate. However, Buddhism was flourishing at this time, and he was famous for his profound Buddhist teachings. He had a high status in Jiangnan.
He stood up and looked at Ling Xiao who was on the tower.""In that case, let me be the notary to verify the authenticity of the secret manual. What do you think, benefactor?”
Ling Xiao nodded noncommittally.
Murong Fu immediately handed the secret manual to the retarded master."Thank you, Grandmaster."
"Amitabha. Almsgiver Murong is too polite.”The mentally retarded master clasped his hands together and took the secret manual. He roughly browsed through it.
After about the time for an incense stick to burn, he closed the manual and said to Ling Xiao,""After my verification, this secret manual is indeed profound and mysterious. With my martial arts level, there are many things that I can't understand. However, I can be sure that this secret manual is real!”
"I knew it. How could Young Master Murong take out a fake secret manual? Wouldn't that be disregarding the lives of his family and subordinates?!”
"That's right. Young Master Murong is noble and righteous. How could he do such a thing?!”
"Wu, you should believe me now, right?!”
When the group of martial artists heard that, they immediately started scolding Ling Xiao again.?
" Alright, alright. If you guys don't go to the opera, I'll feel sorry for you…" Ling Xiao didn't even look at these idiots."Since the retarded master is so certain, please tell me what is written on the seventh page, the third to the fifth line?”
What?
Murong Fu's heart trembled as soon as he heard this. He could no longer maintain his calm posture, and his eyes turned gloomy!
This kid actually didn't believe it and wanted to verify it in public!
"It's already a violation of the rules to let a retarded master browse through the secret manual of the Murong family's heirloom. Do you want everyone to know about it?!”
He stared at Ling Xiao and said word by word,""If you continue to pester me like this, Murong Fu will kill you on the spot even if he has to sacrifice the lives of his family!”
"Aiyo, is Young Master Murong anxious?"
Ling Xiao kept looking at him with a half-smile.""Could it be that the secret manual that Young Master Murong took out is fake? The so-called verification is just a show put on by you and this retarded master?”
"There's no such thing!"
Murong Fu shouted out in a stern voice, but for the first time, he panicked. With his personality, how could he possibly take out the Murong family's ancestral technique, Shifting Stars, for the sake of the lives of a few guards and servants? Therefore, that secret manual was a fake that he had specially created when he found out that Wang Yuyan had been kidnapped!
But at this moment, how could he admit it?
Once he was exposed, his reputation would immediately plummet. If word got out, the Murong family's reputation that he had painstakingly built would be destroyed in a single day!
How could Ling Xiao not see that he was acting tough on the outside but was actually weak on the inside? He immediately shouted back,""Since there's no such thing, please turn to the seventh page and read out the words from the third line to the fifth line for me to hear!”
"I…I…"
Everyone's eyes were focused on the retarded master. However, after a long time, he finally glanced at Murong Fu and sighed.
Whoosh!
The crowd was in an uproar. At this moment, everyone knew that Murong Fu had taken out a fake secret manual!!
Gusu Nanmu Rong would actually do such a thing, disregarding his brothers and relatives?
Murong Fu was so angry that his handsome face turned green. He felt as if there were thorns on his back. He could even feel that his trusted aides, Deng Baichuan and Gongyeqian, were looking at him strangely…
" To be honest, Young Master Murong, you have the nerve to use such a clumsy method. I'm very disappointed…"
Before he could finish his sentence, he unceremoniously drew his sword and cut off Bao Butong's left arm with a swoosh!!
"Ah!"
Fresh blood spurted out. Under the immense pain, Bao Butong's mute acupoint opened on its own and let out a miserable howl that shook the surroundings!
The crowd fell silent. Only Deng Baichuan and Gongyeqian cried out in alarm when they saw their brothers being crippled,""No!"
" Young Master??" The two of them looked at Murong Fu in unison. The pleading in their eyes could no longer be concealed.
Murong Fu naturally felt their gazes. He knew that if he didn't do anything, the Murong family's reputation would be lost.
He looked at Ling Xiao and roared through gritted teeth,"
"Surnamed Ling, I'll use the Shifting Stars, Joined Finger, Dragon City Sword Technique, and the other six secret manuals in exchange for all the hostages!!”
