Chapter 343 Methodical

Chapter 343 Methodical
"There really isn't a single normal person under the command of the Twelve Holy Kings."

The man with the gun was speechless when he heard what the leaf blower said, but he tried his best to keep his expression calm.

From the brief fight just now, he had already realized that... the internal strength he had accumulated through the [Killing Sutra] was far inferior to that of the black-clothed man in front of him whose background he did not know.

That's why he wanted the Leaf Blower to take him away.

But he didn't expect that he couldn't escape... Now the Leaf Blower plans to use the man in black to kill Prince Xiao.

Will I have a chance to escape?

He remained silent, waiting for the right time to act.

But he never expected that the first person to move would be the Leaf Blower!

He turned around, and a ball of gray mist suddenly appeared. His figure merged into the gray mist. The gray mist rolled and changed, and in an instant condensed into a palm, which slapped towards Chu Qing.

This unexpected change surprised Chu Qing.

The leaf blower’s words didn’t seem false… I thought the next part would be a question and answer session, but I didn’t expect that this guy would take the opportunity to attack me?

He immediately shook his arms and used the [Flowing Clouds and Water] move to meet the attack directly.

The palm movements are round and continuous, like flowing water, smooth and unobstructed.

In the blink of an eye, it collided with the gray fog!
When he and Ouyang Tianxu were hiding before, Chu Qing saw the gray fog and understood the key.

The leaf blower has powerful internal strength, and the grey mist is guided by his internal strength and emitted through the pores all over his body, and can move as he wishes. It must not be an external object, but an internal strength that controls the external things.

Chu Qing's flame knife also has this kind of effect, but it is not as light and direct as his.

But Chu Qing's internal strength is beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Therefore, he directly used the flame of the flame knife to break the opponent's gray fog.

It looked like a struggle between flames and gray fog, but in reality it was a contest of internal strength between the two... In this case, the gray fog was naturally no match.

It was easily swept away by Chu Qing.

But now this person no longer relies on the gray fog to confuse and block his vision, but directly uses this force to fight with him. That is a different situation.

Therefore, Chu Qing used the Flowing Clouds and Water technique to test the depth of the gray fog in this form.

At this moment, when the two touched, a crisp sound of "pa pa pa" was heard from the gray fog.

This [Flowing Like Clouds and Water] was not just a single palm strike, but continuous palm strikes that beat the leaf blower back step by step. However, in an instant, the gray fog dissipated, and the leaf blower spurted blood and flew backwards.

Chu Qing raised his eyebrows, and saw the leaf blower's body rolled backwards and fell from mid-air.

But a rare smile appeared on his face:
"Prince Xiao... the martial arts he used is called [Sorrowful Cloud Song], and it sounds similar to the Tianyin Mansion...

"But, this is all a lie...

“Although Prince Xiao understands music, [Song of Sadness] is not a musical skill.

“This method…takes pleasure from joking.

"Only after seeing the sorrows of the world can one see the smiles of heaven.

“There are at least 800 people like me under Prince Xiao’s command, if not a thousand… and the number of those who have died is too numerous to mention.

"We have all learned the [Clouds of Sorrow and Mist] secret from the [Song of Sorrow]. The more desperate we are, the higher our cultivation will be.

“When I die… all of this will be returned to Prince Xiao.

"He bestowed upon us the misery of the world, and was delighted to see us struggling in despair..."

At this point, the leaf blower suddenly roared towards the sky.

The strong energy in his body stirred his clothes, his eyes were bloodshot, tears of blood rolled down, and he launched a fierce attack towards Chu Qing!

Chu Qing narrowed his eyes, knowing that something was wrong with this person.

He immediately put away his joking thoughts and took a step forward to avoid the powerful palm of the leaf blower. The palm passed by Chu Qing's face, but the palm force did not stop. It crossed the space and directly hit the mountain wall opposite Qingquan Gorge, leaving a huge palm print.

When the first move failed, the leaf blower used both hands.

Palm moves, claw moves, fist moves, finger moves... He changed his moves at will, and the changes were complex and fast. Each move was extremely dangerous, and each move was a means of risking his life.

Speaking at the same time:

“I was controlled by others and had no choice… long story short!
"Prince Xiao's [Song of Sadness] has reached its peak. Even if you have the magical power of fire, you may not be able to burn away Prince Xiao's sadness.

"Once you are in a state of depression, unless you are truly indestructible, you will surely die.

“Everything in the fog is under the control of Prince Xiao. He can see all the flaws and weaknesses at a glance.

"But your vision will be shrouded in fog. You can't see, touch, or even know where he will attack from.

"It's like I've fallen into a world dominated by Prince Xiao... Life and death, honor and disgrace, all depend on the other person's thoughts..."

When he said this, Chu Qing had already grabbed his arm and clamped it with his dragon claw hand.

The leaf blower screamed, and as Chu Qing pushed forward, there was a crackling sound, and his entire arm was twisted into pieces like a pretzel.

This was not the Leaf Blower's own choice, but there was something inside him that controlled his actions.

Chu Qing's mind moved, and he suddenly reached out to pinch the leaf blower's mouth.

But it was still a step too late... the leaf blower suddenly bit down.

When he saw Chu Qing's hand stretched out, he spat out most of his tongue.

Then he swept his legs continuously, attacking Chu Qing from three directions.

Chu Qing sighed, knowing that the Leaf Blower had reached his limit.

He changed his steps slightly and pressed down the opponent's legs with his knees, then shook his arms, and the Leaf Blower flew backwards.

After landing, he staggered two steps, but the smile on his face became more obvious.

At the same time, the energy around him became weaker and weaker. He looked at Chu Qing blankly, with a strange look in his eyes.

It seemed as if he was asking Chu Qing, "Did you remember what I just said?"
Chu Qing nodded gently:

"take note of it."

The leaf blower heaved a sigh of relief when he saw this, and the strong wind on his body became weaker and weaker.

His tongue was broken and blood was flowing down his chin onto his chest.

Suddenly, he looked up at the sky and let out an angry and meaningless roar.

Then, under the gaze of Chu Qing and others, he supported his chin with his only remaining hand and shook it hard.

Just heard a click.

His head had been turned in a big circle...his body twisted and he lay directly on the ground, dead on the spot.

This scene left Chu Qing speechless for a long time.

Abrupt and weird.

Chu Qing let out a breath silently and looked at the person on the other side who was retreating quietly and silently.

The man felt his whole body tense up, and when his eyes met Chu Qing's, Chu Qing, who was originally quite far away from him, suddenly appeared in front of him.

"Hold on..."

Chu Qing reached out his hand, and the man tried to struggle, but was pinned to the ground the next moment:

"Be captured!"

bump! ! ! !

A hole was pressed into the ground, and the man was trapped in the hole, unconscious.

This scene once again left people stunned.

Liu Jinghan's pupils shrank, and he felt incredible... Just now, he and Yi Zhishang together could not beat these two people. In such a short period of time, one of them committed suicide, and the other one was no match for the man in black.

What kind of monster is this?

Liu Jinghan has been known as a genius since he was young, but now this genius has suffered repeated setbacks.

First, the leaf blower broke the strings of his zither, and all ten fingers were injured.

Now, the leaf blower and the gunman who had put him in trouble and nearly killed him... were unable to fight back in front of Chu Qing.

His confidence was crushed, and his face was full of disappointment.

But Liu Jinghan didn’t know that whether it was the leaf blower or the one using the gun, their abilities were not achieved because of their good aptitude or hard work.

The Leaf Blower has the [Clouds of Sorrow and Misty Mist] taught by Prince Xiao. The sadder and more desperate he is, the higher his internal strength will be.

What does this have to do with hard work?
The man with the gun learned the "Art of Killing". He practiced martial arts and he killed people... You can imagine who is faster and who is slower.

As for Chu Qing...it's really unnecessary to compare with him.

The leaf blower and the man with the gun can only be considered to have opened a small door... Chu Qing's life, however, is full of cheats, and they are full-level cheats.

"Pick up the body."

Chu Qing turned around and looked at Yi Zhishang:

"And take them away."

As he spoke, he looked at Han Yiren and the others.

Han Yiren had naturally recognized Chu Qing's identity a long time ago. After exchanging glances with Chu Qing, he spoke:
"May I ask where you are taking us?"

Chu Qing took a step forward:
“After what happened today, I think you all understand that Tianyin Mansion is now caught in a vortex. Someone wants to frame Tianyin Mansion and accuse it of colluding with Tianxie Cult.

"What happened to you in Qingquan Gorge was planned.

"I want to use your lives to prove that the Tianxie Cult is colluding with the Tianyin Mansion...

"Now, the performers are about to arrive, so I would like to invite you all to join me in performing a big show to dispel the evil spirit and restore peace to the world!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at each other in surprise.

Some people were quite excited, but some others were skeptical. The first one to agree was Han Yiren.

Although these people are not so convinced of Han Yiren, when they are at a loss, if someone stands up, they will subconsciously support him.

Therefore, as a few people stood up and agreed to this matter, everyone else agreed as well.

Upon seeing this, Yi Zhishang immediately ordered the disciples of Tianyin Mansion to lead them away. The necessary preparations had been made before, and now he simply changed their clothes, let them integrate into the disciples of Tianyin Mansion, led them out of Qingquan Gorge, and found a place to settle them down.

Chu Qing looked at the crowd twice, and his eyes vaguely swept over Li Shengxing.

Chu Qing found it a little funny to think about meeting Li Shengxing in Qingquan Gorge.

Han Qiujun hired the assassin Li Shengxing to kill Han San to avenge Han Qiuze. The whole thing was reasonable... However, Han Qiujun didn't know that Li Shengxing was the assassin he hired, and Li Shengxing didn't know that Han Qiujun, who was in collusion with the Tianxie Cult, planned to kill them in Qingquan Gorge to frame Tianyin Mansion.

If Chu Qing had not made arrangements in advance today, I am afraid that this little knife king Li Shengxing would have died in Qingquan Gorge before he could even start this mission.

After dealing with this group of stragglers, he asked the disciples of Tianyin Mansion to change clothes for these members of the Tianxie Cult.

What they changed into were the clothes of the group of people just now.

This is just a show. In fact, Han Qiujun and the others will not be allowed to see their specific appearance, in case Han Qiujun has a wide range of friends and really knows two of them, which would backfire.

After finishing what needed to be done, Chu Qing said hello to Yi Zhishang and Liu Jinghan:

"We have finished our business here. Let's meet again in Tianyin Mansion."

Yi Zhishang clasped his fists and bowed:
"Yes."

Liu Jinghan snorted as he flicked his sleeves. Chu Qing was stunned. What does that mean? Saving you is the wrong thing?

I couldn't help but look at Yi Zhishang. I wondered what was wrong with this conceited young master?

Yi Zhishang was sweating profusely, but his eyes were filled with confusion, and he obviously didn't know why...

Chu Qing waved his hand and told him to do what he was supposed to do.

I returned to my previous hiding place. Ouyang Tianxu had been waiting for a long time:
"If you don't come back, I'll go ahead... Calculating the time, I should be almost there now."

Chu Qing nodded:

"Let's go, I'll take you back first."

Time waits for no one, so the two men left immediately and headed in the direction they came from. Sure enough, as soon as they walked out of Qingquan Gorge, they saw the huge team.

After looking at each other, Ouyang Tianxu said:

"Farewell, see you at Tianyin Mansion."

"Is Palace Master Ouyang ready?"

"Han Qiujun's ambitions are obvious, so let him die in Tianyin Mansion... I will help you cover up what happened in Qingquan Gorge."

After Ouyang Tianxu finished speaking, he jumped back into the team.

Chu Qing saw that several disciples seemed to have noticed Ouyang Tianxu's arrival, but it did not cause much commotion.

Obviously no one could have imagined that Ouyang Tianxu would leave the team for a whole night.

After taking a quick look, Chu Qing went straight back to Tianyin Mansion.

He walked quickly, and when he returned to Tianyin Mansion, Liu Jinghan and Yi Zhishang had not returned yet.

In the Wuyin Hall, looking at Liu Zhaonian who was sitting at the top, Chu Qing asked directly:
"Has Ning Wufang left?"

"gone."

Liu Zhaonian smiled and said:

"You are so wise. He really couldn't hold back last night and left the cage with the army leader's men.

"Gongsun Zongheng also wanted to go with us, but was rejected by Ning Wufang."

He was quite pleased when he talked about this matter.

Chu Qing smiled silently and tapped the table lightly with his fingers:
"Almost everything that needs to be done has been done. The stage is set up. The next step is to perform this play well."

Liu Zhaonian looked at Chu Qing with a complicated expression. Just as he was about to say something, he heard a commotion outside and the sound of footsteps approaching quickly.

Immediately afterwards, there was a bang, and the door of the Five Sounds Hall was forcibly pushed open, with several disciples of the Tianyin Palace trying to stop them.

The one who broke the door was Liu Jinghan.

The disciple was terrified and said:
"Palace Master... Your disciples cannot stop the eldest master..."

Liu Zhaonian waved his hand and looked at his son with a frown:

"Why are you so irritable?"

Liu Jinghan glanced at Chu Qing. Chu Qing was still wearing black clothes, but he had taken off his mask.

After seeing Chu Qing's face, Liu Jinghan seemed to have completely determined something. His eyes were full of disbelief. When he looked at Liu Zhaonian again, his eyes were red and there was a sense of grievance in his words:

"If I don't act rashly, I'm afraid there won't be any place for me in Tianyin Mansion, right?"

Liu Zhaonian: “???”

……

……

ps: I am completely sick, but I can still hold on... I just sleep too much. I can't wake up no matter how hard I sleep... I was struggling to get up in the last second, and I was unconscious in the next second. When I opened my eyes, half an hour had passed...
