Gao Wu: My martial arts training relies solely on hard work

Chapter 119 Borrowing a Knife
What a coincidence, the eighth prince's dead head rolled to the feet of Taoist You Fang.

The empty, lifeless eyes stared straight at him, making him almost jump in fright.

Everyone present had mixed reactions.

Wang Jian was slightly surprised and looked at the butler Wang Lin, as if asking: "What happened after I left? Why did you suddenly kill the eighth prince?"

Wang Lin responded with a wry smile.

Although he was present, he had no idea why Zhao Xuan suddenly killed the eighth prince.

He glanced at the wandering Taoist and felt that it was related to the Taoist, but he couldn't tell the specific reason.

Wang Jian had no choice but to ask: "Didn't we agree on compensation? Why did the young hero kill someone again?"

He originally wanted Sima Yuan to exert influence on the wandering Taoist priests and bring them under Wang's command.

Compared to the down-and-out prince, the Wang family is the real behemoth, and there is no reason for Taoist You Fang to disagree.

Therefore, he did not hesitate to compensate Zhao Xuan for Sima Yuan and protect him.

I didn't expect to go out to pick up someone, but he was gone.

Zhao Xuan looked serious: "This junior suddenly feels that compensation is inappropriate."

"It's like paying for medical expenses after beating someone, and giving pension for killing someone. It's too oppressive and not conducive to clear thoughts."

"My master always teaches the younger generation that they should not compromise their righteousness for small gains. To prevent inner demons from breeding, they have to kill them with one sword."

The main reason for bargaining with Sima Yuan was to stabilize him and fish out Taoist You Fang.

Now that the purpose has been achieved, Sima Yuan has no use value.

The reason why he said this to Wang Jian was that he saw that Wang Jian was very interested in Taoist You Fang.

Coincidentally, he was also very interested in the wandering Taoist.

There must be a fight between the two.

Since he wants to fight, he must show his uncompromising attitude.

He is both the master of suffering and the stronger party.

If he refused to compromise, why would Wang Jian steal someone from him?
Peak Master Tianshu praised: "Good."

Although he asked Zhao Xuan to handle the matter, he was not very satisfied with his request for compensation.

From the Supreme Elder down, the Zhenwu Sect has always repaid kindness and revenge.

As for the loot, you can get as much as you can by killing people.

He's not a kidnapper, so how can he be justified in asking someone to pay ransom for his life?

Besides, doesn’t Zhenwu Sect not have the things that Zhao Xuan wants?

Do not believe in others.

He had secretly planned to "teach" Zhao Xuan afterwards.

Seeing Zhao Xuan do something that satisfied him, he immediately praised him.

He even asked Wang Jian: "Does Marquis Wu Gang think that he cannot be killed?"

Wang Jian smiled awkwardly: "Sword Lord, please don't misunderstand me. I have no intention of doing so."

"It's just that the eighth prince's maternal uncle is a grandmaster."

Tianshu Peak Master's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Oh, where are they?"

During the battle to eliminate demons, as the team leader, he stayed at the station for the sake of the overall situation.

Except for Xiang Ying who led people to hit the goal a few times, he had almost no chance to take action.

Now that I have the opportunity to stretch my muscles, I really want it.

A strange look flashed in Wang Jian's eyes, and he began to persuade: "Sword Lord, there is no need to be like this. Grandmaster Liu Dezhu is a sensible person and will not resent Zhenwu Sect for this."

Before protecting the eighth prince, he had another idea, which was to win over his grandmaster uncle.

Now that the Eighth Prince is dead, it was Wang who brought him here, and more than one person saw him.

As the Eighth Prince's biggest supporter, Liu Dezhu must secretly hate the Wang family.

Although a mere low-ranking grandmaster is not something to be feared by Wang, he is still a hidden danger.

Since the masters and disciples of Zhenwu Sect are very murderous.

It's better to kill him with a borrowed knife.It's not that the Wang family can't take action personally, but that the Northern Wei Dynasty has a powerful enemy and the battle ahead is tight.

As the master of the royal family, Liu Dezhu should have died on the battlefield against the Northern Wei Dynasty, rather than died in internal fighting.

If he died in the hands of the Wang family, it would inevitably arouse criticism from other aristocratic families, especially the Xie family.

Someone will do it for you, best.

Peak Master Tianshu took a deep look at Wang Jian and said calmly: "Zhenwu Sect's consistent style is to eliminate evil."

"It's not like I haven't killed any master-level warriors back then."

"Besides, I originally planned to kill a master to warn the martial arts community not to attack the disciples of the Zhenwu Sect walking outside easily."

"Please also ask Hou Xiang of Wu Gang to help me find this person."

Wang Jian's eyes flickered.

The sentence "Killing a master serves as a warning to the martial arts world" is very interesting.

If the eighth prince doesn't have a grandmaster-level uncle, who is he going to kill?
In other words, if Wang did not find out who was behind the assassination, who would he plan to kill?
Of course, Peak Master Tianshu may have seen that he was killing someone with a borrowed knife and did it deliberately.

It is worthy of being the fourth sect on the Heavenly List, and every one of them is extremely murderous.

Wang Jian chuckled: "Since this happened in Wang's manor, I, Wang, help clear the obstacles and it is my duty to help."

"That grandmaster happens to be nearby. Since Sword Master is interested, I can take Sword Master to find him in the name of the Wang family."

Now that things have come to this, he might as well keep the favor to the end.

At the same time, he saw the style of the strong master of Zhenwu Sect.

Peak Master Tianshu said nonchalantly: "Please ask Marquis Wu Gang to lead the way."

Before leaving, Wang Jian did not forget to tell the butler: "Wang Lin, you entertain Young Master Zhao on my behalf."

Then he said to Zhao Xuan: "Young Master Zhao, I have something to ask this Taoist Priest, please don't kill him."

After speaking, he winked at Wang Lin and told him to watch carefully and don't let Zhao Xuan kill Taoist You Fang.

Wang Lin understood the idea and stood directly between Zhao Xuan and the Taoist: "Elder, please rest assured."

Zhao Xuan chuckled lightly when he saw this, waited for Master Tianshu and Wang Jian to leave, and looked past Wang Lin towards Taoist You Fang: "Taoist, let's talk?"

Taoist You Fang stared at Zhao Xuan for a long time, his eyes gradually becoming panicked.

Then he turned his head away, his eyes wandering, not daring to look at Zhao Xuan.

He pretended not to have heard what Zhao Xuan said.

Wang Lin received Wang Jian's explanation and quickly smoothed things over: "Young hero, the mastermind of the Eighth Prince is dead. The Taoist Priest was not involved in it. You see..."

Before he finished speaking, Zhao Xuan's figure had disappeared before his eyes.

The next moment, Zhao Xuan's voice came from behind him: "The assassin is also in the Tiangang realm. He attacked secretly and still died at the hands of his subordinates."

"Why does Butler Wang think you can stop me?"

"As for whether he is the mastermind or an accomplice, it's up to me and not the Wang family."

Wang Lin suddenly turned around and saw Zhao Xuan standing next to Taoist You Fang.

The wandering Taoist trembled like quails.

He hurriedly moved out Wang Jian: "Young hero, the second elder explained before leaving..."

Zhao Xuan interrupted: "I never promised Senior Wang not to kill anyone."

"Besides, I just want to understand the cause and effect of the assassination. Why did Butler Wang stop it?"

Wang Lin was speechless after saying two sentences.

What surprised him even more was the methods Zhao Xuan showed.

He thought that Zhao Xuan relied on the means given by Peak Master Tianshu to kill the assassin.

I didn't expect it to be so strong.

Should we ask the other two elders to come forward?
Zhao Xuan didn't care what he was thinking.

He stared at Taoist You Fang, who was looking away, and said calmly: "Taoist Master, I'll give you two choices."

"Cooperate or die."
