Zhang Qiling obeyed the order respectfully. He was not a blindly loyal person. He believed that only by keeping himself useful could he better assist Yin Jun in the future.
He has become the Northern Emperor Sichen, and his divine position has given him a long life. He still has a lot of time to serve Yin Jun.
Just as Hu Xiuwu was about to leave, he suddenly looked up and chuckled, "Oh, they actually recovered at this time?"
"Qiling, I have a task for you."
"Please give your Majesty's orders."
"Can you take care of children?"
Zhang Qiling: “???”
······
Outside Yuzhou City, in an unknown bamboo forest, there is a sword pavilion.
"Hoohoo, Junior Sister, Junior Sister. Master, you are too harsh."
Li Xingyun, who was dressed in red and had a handsome but still immature face, shouted to his master Yang Shuzi with worry and anger.
His junior sister Lu Linxuan had just been beaten black and blue by the master and fainted on the ground.
Yang Shuzi said coldly: "Your kung fu is so poor, and you will ruin my reputation if you go down the mountain."
"Don't think you're safe. Learning martial arts secretly is a big taboo."
Li Xingyun lied in his heart, but still said stubbornly: "Master, what are you talking about? You have never taught me martial arts."
"Then where did you get all this kung fu from?"
Yang Shuzi didn't believe it at all. He had long suspected that Buliang Shuai was secretly teaching Li Xingyun martial arts.
He has the cultivation level of Zhongtian level and is considered a master who is rarely rivaled in the martial arts world. However, compared with the Bad Commander, he is just a firefly under the bright moon and is not worth mentioning.
Yang Shuzi was unaware of the coming and going of the Bad Commander, but Li Xingyun, who was only eight or nine years old at the time, was warned by the Bad Commander not to reveal his martial arts.
But he was still young after all, and it was impossible for him to completely hide it from Yang Shuzi. It was just that Yang Shuzi did not dare to point out the matter and turn against Buliang Shuai.
After saying a few cold words, he attacked Li Xingyun ruthlessly, and finally forced Li Xingyun to use the real kung fu taught to him by the Bad Leader.
Although Yang Shuzi was very surprised at Li Xingyun's strength, it did prove a guess in his mind.
The Bad Leader has supported the Tang Dynasty for three hundred years. It is impossible for him to watch Li Xingyun become a hermit doctor and stay away from troubles as Yang Shuzi wished.
"Xingyun, it seems that it will be difficult for me to let people live a peaceful life."
In the bamboo forest, someone looked at Li Xingyun, who was fighting hard with Yang Shuzi and not losing the upper hand, and nodded with satisfaction. Then he raised his hand and pinched the bamboo leaves that pierced through several green bamboos and shot towards his head like powerful arrows.
The figure disappeared on the spot, and the man, with his superb lightness skills, was like a gust of wind blowing towards the direction where the bamboo leaves were shot.
In the dense forest, the one shooting out bamboo leaves is a young Taoist priest wearing a crane cloak and leaning on a bamboo staff, looking as ethereal as a Taoist hermit.
"who are you?"
The voice was hoarse, like a ghost escaping from the fire. The person who secretly spied on Li Xingyun was wearing black clothes, a bamboo hat, a turban under the bamboo hat, and a mask, with no skin exposed.
The outfit is mysterious and eye-catching. Mysterious because few people have seen the face under the mask, and eye-catching because there is only one person in the world who wears this outfit.
The Bad Leader who led the Bad People for three hundred years,
Yuan Tiangang.
"Buliang Shuai, you are here indeed. How could you be absent for such an important matter as Yang Shuzi's test of Li Xingyun?"
The only people who could find Jianlu when no one in the world of The Bad Guys knows that Li Xingyun, the last bloodline of the Tang Dynasty, is still alive, besides Quan Xing, are Hu Xiuwu.
Yuan Tiangang sneered: "Ha, knowing my identity, you still dare to face me."
Hu Xiuwu said helplessly: "If I have a choice, I really don't want to go against you. But I want to ask Buliangshuai for something."
"what?"
Yuan Tiangang had secretly gathered his internal strength. When Hu Xiuwu mentioned Li Xingyun, Yuan Tiangang would not let him leave.
Suddenly, all the insects and birds fell silent, the wind stopped, and the forest was still.
But Hu Xiuwu seemed unaware: "I want the identity of the Bad Leader."
After living for three hundred years, this was the first time someone told him that he wanted to replace him. Yuan Tiangang laughed: "What did you say?"
Hu Xiuwu took out the same mask as Yuan Tiangang:
"I also have a mask, and I also have the power to overwhelm the world. I am the Bad Leader."
"Well said!" Yuan Tiangang's figure flashed and he was already in front of Hu Xiuwu, holding a silver needle between his fingers.
"Then let me measure your strength."
Chapter 393: Cheating, the Death of Bad Leader
Who is stronger, the old Heavenly Master Zhang Zhiwei or the bad commander Yuan Tiangang? This is a difficult question to answer.
Both of them were powerful men who stood above their time. Yuan Tiangang was immortal, and Zhang Zhiwei held the Five Thunderbolts. Both of them were famous for their one-two punch. No matter who they were fighting, they almost never used a second move.
Unless the two have fought each other, it would be difficult to tell who is better.
However, for Hu Xiuwu, the threat posed by Yuan Tiangang at this moment is far greater than that posed by Zhang Zhiwei.
In the world of The Bad Guys, the only way to practice is through martial arts, unlike the Yang World where there are countless miraculous skills, spells, sorcery, and endless variety.
But this does not mean that Yuan Tiangang is weaker than others. The Quanzhen sect only practices life and death, but it does not prevent it from becoming one of the two major branches of Taoism together with the Zhengyi sect.
Yuan Tiangang was not tall, but when he flew forward, his thin figure was taller than the bamboo forest, and his momentum was as powerful as a dragon or an elephant crashing into a mountain, or Kuafu holding the sun.
Hu Xiuwu swung out with his bare hands and felt as if buildings were collapsing, mountains were pressing down on the sky, and the ocean was surging.
The arrogant and domineering momentum, the overbearing and oppressive feeling, and the unquestionable power all show why the Bad Commander has been able to dominate the world for three hundred years and become the national treasure that no heroes dare to covet in the Dragon Court.
Hu Xiuwu praised him and drew his sword to show his respect.
After the new moon, the moon shines brightly.
The cool moonlight shines on the earth.
The sword energy and fist energy meet, the scorching sun meets the cold moon, the fist and sword symphony, the sound is like thunder in an empty valley, the energy is surging, and it looks like wind rising from the ground.
Strong grass lay on the ground, green bamboo was broken into two pieces, birds flew away in fright, and beasts were terrified.
After one strike, Yuan Tiangang was sure that the young man in front of him did have the strength to challenge him, but what concerned him more was the green bamboo-shaped Tang Dynasty horizontal sword-style long sword in Hu Xiuwu's hand.
The Tiangang Jue condensed into a wall of energy. With the help of Hu Xiuwu's sword energy, Yuan Tiangang turned around like a floating cattail. His voice was still so low that it was impossible to tell his emotions:
"Zhegui, Youyue Sword Technique, you are Pei Min's successor."
Hu Xiuwu curled the corners of his mouth but did not deny it.
Hu Xiuwu was not surprised that Yuan Tiangang could recognize the Zhegui Sword and Youyue Sword Technique. In fact, he had been wondering for a long time that these fantasy worlds all grew from the seeds of human creations.
No one can write down all the rules of a world in detail. When fantasy becomes the world, what will it be like where the pen has not reached?
When Yuan Tiangang recognized Zhegui, Hu Xiuwu had the answer.
The fantasy world is still based on the world of the living, and the underlying logic is designed. Just like when a novel is converted into a TV series, the architectural style or type of clothing that the author did not describe will be inspired by historical records.
Yuan Tiangang was silent for a moment, then suddenly spoke in a slower tone: "For the sake of your ancestor Pei Min, as long as you join the Bad People, I will spare your life."
Although he still didn't know Hu Xiuwu's background and purpose, Yuan Tiangang was still confident that he could control Hu Xiuwu.
He was confident enough to recruit someone under his command even though he had only met him once. It was not because Yuan Tiangang was arrogant, but it was the truth.
Li Keyong, the King of Jin, who occupied Longxi and had over ten thousand soldiers and armor, had unfathomable strength and was feared by the princes from all over the place, was crippled in both legs by just two stones thrown by the bad commander.
The Raojiang Poison Cave, which is skilled in the evil arts of witchcraft and sorcery and is brutal and cruel, was established by the bad people under the command of the Bad Commander.
These people are all top-notch in the world in terms of intelligence and martial arts. They are all playthings and chess pieces in the hands of the Bad Leader. Of course, he has the confidence to control anyone.
As soon as Hu Xiuwu arrived in the world of the Bad Guys, he immediately went to Jianlu and waited for the Bad Guys. Wasn't it because he was afraid of the Bad Guys' wisdom?
"The founder fought to the death in Chang'an for the people of Chang'an, not for the emperor who abandoned his people and fled in panic. You, General Buliang, should also understand that the fate of the Tang Dynasty has come to an end."
Hu Xiuwu said truthfully: "Could it be that you want to rely on that young Li Xingyun to restore the Tang Dynasty?"
"The bad commander did not refute me, nor did he express any doubt. It seems that the Patriarch Pei Min in this world may not be as strong as the one in the Yang world, but he also died in Chang'an."
'Based on this speculation, the characters of the talented and powerful people whose names are recorded in history books, as long as they are not the main characters or supporting characters described in the books, should be consistent with those in history.'
However, Hu Xiuwu was not 100% sure about this guess. After all, the evidence for his speculation was a reflection of the Bad Commander.
But who is this Buliangshuai? He has assisted the Tang Dynasty for three hundred years, and his mind is unpredictable and he has made every possible plan.
Without the use of Tushita Fire and the Three Corpses Qi, Hu Xiuwu really had no confidence in being able to tell whether the Bad Commander was acting or not.
Although Hu Xiuwu's background is still unknown, Yuan Tiangang no longer speaks nonsense based on the fact that he can find Jianlu and reveal Li Xingyun's identity:
"Xingyun is the legitimate son of Emperor Zhaozong. He is very intelligent and has gone through all kinds of hardships. He has seen the sufferings of the people. If he ascends the throne, he will be a good emperor."
This is true. Li Xingyun, who had been a beggar and had eaten raw meat, really understood the suffering of the common people. If he had some ambition and with the support of Yuan Tiangang, it would not be impossible for him to become Li Chongba.
Hu Xiuwu said: "But Li Xingyun doesn't seem to want to be the emperor."
Unfortunately, Li Xingyun lacks that little bit of ambition. The current emperor Zhu Wen and others only care about power, but Li Xingyun sees more of the responsibility that the emperor represents.
Becoming an emperor not only means having power over millions of people, but also being responsible for the lives of these millions of people.
Li Xingyun did not dare to take on this responsibility, and at the same time, he also had some shadows about the throne.
Because of the throne, his parents died before him, his brothers were either burned to death or beheaded, and even he himself was displaced and looked down upon.
So at this moment, Li Xingyun actually had the same wish as Yang Shuzi had hoped, he wanted to be a knight with great martial arts skills who could fight against evil and protect the good.
Yuan Tiangang said: "That won't allow him to do that."
Whoever I choose to be emperor can be emperor!
Hu Xiuwu said with emotion: "That's why I came to find you."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Xiuwu immediately stepped down with his right foot, ordered the earth's qi to connect, making the mountains, rivers, and water merge into one, drew a talisman with his left hand, and spit out mist and miasma.
The surroundings immediately became a hazy, confusing feng shui maze.
Hu Xiuwu would not fight the best in the world without any preparation. Before meeting Yuan Tiangang, Hu Xiuwu used the Di Gang Order to fine-tune the surrounding terrain, waiting for Yuan Tiangang to fall into the trap, then he closed the lid and closed the door to catch the thief.
"You are also proficient in formations, how ridiculous, do you think this formation can stop me?"
Yuan Tiangang is a Taoist master who has a record of breaking the Tianshan Sword Sect's sect formation in five days. Even though he has never seen a direct way to mobilize the earth's energy like the Digang Order, the formation could not escape the Eight Trigrams and the Five Elements.
