Chapter 270: Coming and Going Like Lightning
Chapter 270: Coming and Going Like Lightning
Taiheng Gate, inside the Yujian Pavilion.
At this moment, the sword energy was whistling and the qi was running rampant.
Today was the day when Wen Fusheng, the owner of Luochen Villa, visited Taihengmen to prepare to participate in the sword-granting ceremony in two days.
As a result, as soon as both parties sat down, before Wen Fusheng could say anything, Tai Hengmen reported the incident of Chu Qing assassinating Li Junmo in great detail.
What Wen Fusheng wanted to say was choked back in an instant.
When I asked them later how they treated the "Third Young Master", I found out that this bunch of bastards actually dared to attack my precious daughter.
Wenrou and he were rarely together. Without his beloved daughter by his side, Wen Fusheng felt regretful when he occasionally thought of her.
The main reason for letting her stay with Chu Qing was to let Chu Qing save her life.
It would be even better if they could see eye to eye.
If Chu Qing had any feelings, how could he watch his daughter die because of Tianxiang's smell?
But he couldn't help feeling worried, so after not leaving Luochen Villa for many years, he traveled thousands of miles to Taiheng Gate to participate in this damn sword-awarding ceremony.
The result was good... my daughter didn't see it, but instead I found out that these people from Taihengmen actually bullied my daughter!
The more Wen Fusheng thought about it, the angrier he became. When Lan Shuyi and Ye Wanqiu came over earlier, they happened to see Wen Fusheng in a rage, questioning Tai Hengmen.
In the end, he just took action.
On the one hand, Tai Heng Sect didn't know that there was a young lady from Luochen Villa beside Chu Qing.
On the other hand, he also wanted to put the blame on Chu Qing first and prove the crime of killing innocent people. However, he didn't expect that before the charges were determined, he offended the owner of Luochen Villa.
For a while, everyone was complaining bitterly.
However, Wen Fusheng did not give them a chance. He used the [Yan Tian Xing Yu Gong] in conjunction with the [Jiu Tian Xing Chen Finger]. Although the swordsmanship of the people of Tai Heng Sect was indeed superb and each had its own mysteries, they did not follow the same path.
But facing the already red-faced Wen Fusheng, all the mysterious sword skills were of no use.
Once the domain of [Yan Tian Xing Yu Gong] is deployed, unless someone's martial arts are many times better than his, no matter who comes in, their speed will be reduced by 90%.
Those with weaker martial arts skills may even be unable to move.
Unfortunately, his [Nine Sky Star Finger] was so fast and fierce that in a short while, many people were lying in the field.
The person sitting here today and presiding over the situation is also an old man with white hair and beard.
Seeing Wen Fusheng's ferocious power, I was extremely speechless.
I have a feeling that Tai Heng Sect has been unlucky these past two days. Otherwise, Chu Qing would have slaughtered so many people last night that there was no place to put the bodies.
What's more, eight of the nine elders died and one was injured, and the one who was still alive was about to die.
Although Wen Fusheng did not go on a killing spree like Chu Qing did today, judging from the current situation, those who were seriously injured by him will not be able to get out of bed without a few months of recuperation.
Even if he is able to get out of bed, he may not be able to recover to his peak state.
If the Tai Heng Sect’s foundation is allowed to be consumed like this, its century-old foundation will be destroyed.
The old man immediately patted the back of his chair:
"enough!!!"
The sound is like metal, and the sword rings when the sound comes out.
Everyone present who was holding a sword felt the sword in their hand tremble and become uneasy in the sheath when they heard this man speak.
Wen Fusheng was fighting with another elder of Tai Heng Sect at this time. How could he stop when the opponent said enough when he was halfway through his fight?
He sneered and was about to point his finger.
There was a buzzing sound, and the sound of a sword suddenly rushed into the battle circle.
The sword energy is extremely sharp, and it cannot be said to be very powerful, but the profound power contained in it is definitely not comparable to that of ordinary people.
Wen Fusheng frowned slightly, raised his fingertips, and with one finger, the nine levels of heaven fell.
This move is none other than the 'Nine Stars in a Row' move from the [Nine Sky Star Finger]. The finger forces are layered on top of each other, echoing each other.
In an instant, strong winds and sword energy spread throughout the Imperial Sword Pavilion.
The old man who was originally sitting upright suddenly stood up, and the chair under his buttocks broke into pieces the moment he stood up.
Wen Fusheng's whole body shook slightly, and he swung his wide sleeves to both sides. With a loud bang, the tables, chairs and benches on both sides were smashed into pieces by the sword energy swung out from between his sleeves.
Looking up at the old man, Wen Fusheng sneered:
"Ge Hong, it is truly commendable that you have cultivated to this level in your lifetime.
"From what you said, are you planning to practice with me today?"
"...Master Wen is joking."
The old man called Ge Hong lowered his eyebrows:
“There may be other misunderstandings in this matter. The Third Young Master is cruel and merciless, and has slaughtered countless disciples of my Tai Heng Sect.
"It may not be a good thing for Miss Wen to be with such a person..."
"Ha ha ha ha!!!"
Wen Fusheng laughed:
"You have lived in shame until this age, but have all these years been wasted?
“You’re trying to sow discord in front of me!?
"I know what kind of person he is much better than you do.
"You want to pin the blame for killing Li Junmo on him... I want to ask, do you, Tai Heng Sect, really have the ability to do this? Can you afford the consequences?"
“There is no need for you to know what abilities my Tai Heng Sect possesses.
"And what kind of consequences will my Tai Heng Sect have to bear... I really want to know."
A voice suddenly came from outside the door.
When the elders in the field heard this voice, their eyes suddenly lit up.
At the same time, he turned his head and looked outside, and saw a man coming with a sword. When he first saw him, he was still in the square in front of the palace, but in a flash, he was already in front of the Sword Control Pavilion.
He stepped into the hall, glanced around, and couldn't help but frowned:
"I was wondering who it was that went to Tai Heng Gate and made such a fuss. It turned out to be Master Wen...
"But I don't know how my Tai Heng Sect offended you, Wen Fusheng, to cause you to fight like this in my Tai Heng Sect?"
"Nanling Iron Sword Chen Zhengnan?"
Wen Fusheng narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw the person coming:
"You shouldn't ask me this. You should ask your fellow disciples what they did."
Chen Zhengnan frowned. He arrived late and didn't know the specific situation.
Wen Fusheng was heard speaking rudely in the Yu Jian Pavilion. Although he had been away from his master's sect for many years, he grew up in the Tai Heng Sect after all. Hearing these words, he was naturally furious and fought back.
But now hearing what Wen Fusheng said, is there another hidden story behind this matter?
I couldn't help but look at Ge Hong.
Ge Hong sighed:
"Your Junior Brother Li was killed by someone. The murderer had a deep connection with Manor Master Wen..."
In just one sentence, the general reason was explained.
Chen Zhengnan was stunned:
"Junior Brother Li...is he dead?"
"died."
A trace of sadness appeared in Ge Hong's eyes:
"You came a day late last night. Otherwise, you might have been able to meet him..."
Chen Zhengnan felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
Outside the Imperial Sword Pavilion, Ye Wanqiu, who was looking into the hall through the cracks in the window, had sparkling eyes:
"He is the Iron Sword of Nanling, Chen Zhengnan!"
"Why? You like the old one?"
Lan Shuyi asked casually.
Ye Wanqiu stepped on him mercilessly, and then said coldly:
"Tell me, if I challenge him, who will win?"
"Ten percent!"
Lan Shuyi quickly spoke:
"Loosen your feet..." Ye Wanqiu loosened her feet in surprise:
"You actually have a keen eye for talent and think highly of me?"
"I mean, Chen Zhengnan will win 100% and you will lose 100%."
Ye Wanqiu didn't say anything, but just looked at Lan Shuyi meaningfully. Lan Shuyi felt an inexplicable danger from this look.
But he didn't want to miss the scene in the Yu Jian Pavilion, so he forced himself to watch despite the tingling feeling on his scalp.
After Chen Zhengnan was in a trance, he looked at Wen Fusheng:
"What he said is true?"
"Whether it's true or not, who knows... Li Junmo may indeed be dead, but the person who killed him may not be the one they said."
Wen Fusheng sneered:
"It's ridiculous to want to convict someone without any evidence."
"If he wasn't the one who killed the person, why would he be so angry and start killing people in my Tai Heng Sect!"
Ge Hong was furious for a moment, as if Chen Zhengnan's arrival gave him confidence, and he no longer lowered his head:
"Zhengnan, last night that man slaughtered 217 of my Tai Heng Sect disciples in front of my Yu Jian Pavilion!
"How do you think this matter should be settled?"
Chen Zhengnan glanced at Ge Hong, but did not speak immediately. Instead, he asked Wen Fusheng:
"who's that person?"
"Crazy Blade... Third Young Master!"
Before Wen Fusheng could speak, Ge Hong had already mentioned Chu Qing's name.
Chen Zhengnan suddenly looked back:
"Who are you talking about?"
"Third Young Master!"
Ge Hong was puzzled. He had never heard that Chen Zhengnan had damaged his ears at such a young age.
Although Chen Zhengnan is now over fifty years old, he is still a young man to Ge Hong.
"This is impossible!"
Chen Zhengnan shook his head decisively:
"The Third Young Master is not such a person... You said he killed Li Junmo, but do you have any evidence?"
"What Guan Changying said himself, could it be false?"
"Where is Guan Changying?"
Chen Zhengnan was furious:
"Get him out! With such a commotion in front of the Imperial Sword Pavilion, why is it that the young sect leader is hiding behind people and not daring to see anyone?"
Hearing Chen Zhengnan's tone, Ge Hong frowned for a moment:
"Zhengnan, what do you mean by this?"
"What do you mean? You rashly identified someone else as the murderer, and the murderer was Li Junmo.
"Shouldn't he, who saw it with his own eyes, come forward and state what he saw? Is he just relying on your retelling?"
Chen Zhengnan said coldly:
"What are the details? How did the Third Young Master kill Li Junmo? Why did he do it? Do they have an old grudge, or did they just become enemies in the past two days?
"Have you figured out these questions?"
Ge Hong was speechless for a moment. They really had not figured out these issues.
Chen Zhengnan knew what he was thinking from his expression, and for a moment he laughed in anger:
"So, you just concluded that the Third Young Master killed Li Junmo because of Guan Changying's words...
"Last night, the Third Young Master went on a killing spree and killed more than 200 Tai Heng Sect disciples?
"Let me ask you, what did you do last night?"
"It's nothing..."
Wen Fusheng said coldly:
“It was nothing more than taking advantage of the Third Young Master’s absence to lead his disciples to attack his friends.
"When the Third Young Master came back and saw what was happening, he flew into a rage and started killing people.
"I guess... during the siege, these guys probably didn't go easy on me."
If he hadn't been really pissed off, how could he have been so cruel?
Wen Fusheng thought he had some understanding of Chu Qing. He was a clear-headed person, and it might be a bit of an exaggeration to call him a hero, but he was kind-hearted after all.
I wouldn't kill people like this for no reason.
But if the other party has malicious intentions and wants to kill him, then his "Mad Blade" cannot be bought with money.
How can such a master be insulted easily?
I should repay it with blood!
In other words, if Tai Heng Sect framed Chu Qing and sent people to attack Chu Qing's friends, then no matter what Chu Qing did last night, it was all their own fault.
Chen Zhengnan took a deep breath:
"Nothing in this world can be overcome by reason.
"If Li Junmo was really killed by the Third Young Master, then what you did last night was justified and the blood debt must be repaid with blood!
“But if Li Junmo…wasn’t killed by the Third Young Master, there must be a misunderstanding in this matter.
"As for the Third Young Master, you guys murdered the people around him for no reason.
"No matter how many people die or what the consequences are, it's all your own fault!
“In my opinion, let’s leave this matter here for now and first investigate why Li Junmo died and who committed the murder.
“If the result is clear, and it is indeed the Third Young Master who did it, then the Tai Heng Sect is not inferior to others. Even if their martial arts are inferior, they still have some courage!
"On the contrary...ah..."
Speaking of this, Chen Zhengnan also let out a long sigh.
"Zhengnan..."
Ge Hong suddenly spoke slowly:
"You have been away from Tai Heng Clan for many years."
Chen Zhengnan was stunned, then suddenly laughed:
"So I have no right to interfere in the affairs of Tai Heng Clan, right?"
Ge Hong didn't say anything.
Not speaking is considered as a consent.
Chen Zhengnan smiled coldly and was about to speak when he suddenly felt a strong wind coming from outside the door.
In a trance, he only saw a black shadow wrapped in a flash of lightning, and it appeared in front of Ge Hong in an instant.
Immediately afterwards, a snapping sound was heard!
Ge Hong turned his face and flew out.
Everyone was stunned. Who is he and what is going on?
Looking around, he saw the figure quickly circled twice in the lobby of Yu Jian Pavilion, then whizzed past Wen Fusheng and headed straight out of the hall.
Wen Fusheng's heart moved, and he shouted hurriedly:
"Where to go!"
After saying that, he jumped out and chased after him.
Chen Zhengnan also wanted to chase after him, but suddenly found that there was an extra thing on the ground where Ge Hong was originally.
It was round and wrapped in a piece of clothing, with strands of blood oozing from the bottom.
His heart tightened and he immediately opened the bundle. Inside was a round, bald human head.
There was a letter bitten in the mouth of the human head.
Over there, Ge Hong was getting up from the ground, covering his face, and looking around in confusion, not knowing who had given him a big-slapping post.
He looked at Chen Zhengnan again, then at the head, and was suddenly stunned:
"Master Xingzhi..."
"What does the Vajra Sect do?"
Chen Zhengnan's heart moved, and he looked at the letter again. On the cover was written [Dear friends from Vajra Gate].
