The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 693 Fists and Swift Swords

"Two years ago, Li Chaofeng broke into Yongcui Villa alone, won the battle at Haibi Mountain, and became the Scarlet Flame Dragon."

"And in this battle, the world finally learned the secret of the Demonic Blade Thousand Blades."

In the ward, Chu Liuxiang, whose stone Gu was freed by Muni, lay down again and began to tell his story.

But the man in hemp clothes didn’t care about Chu Liuxiang’s experience, and he wasn’t even curious at all.

The man in sackcloth didn't care why he was injured, but Chu Liuxiang felt that he needed to make it clear.
After all, the enemy he provoked this time was indeed stronger.

Chu Liuxiang was very grateful to the man in sackcloth for saving him, so he didn't want the man in sackcloth to not even know who his enemy was.

Although he didn't know much.

Seeing that the man in sackcloth clothes was unmoved, Chu Liuxiang continued to talk to himself.

"In the past ten years, Li Chaofeng has dominated the world with his divine sword."

"The Thousand Blades are magical, but in the minds of the world, people have always believed that this sword is made of special materials."

“Although it can be called the world’s number one divine weapon, it can also be made by an ancient divine craftsman.”

"But on Haibi Mountain, Li Chaofeng was besieged by six great swordsmen, but he protected himself with scales and armor, and at the same time announced the true identity of the Demonic Blade Qianren to the world."

"There may be magical weapons in the world that can be controlled by the mind, but there is definitely no armor that can grow on the body like scales."

"In the end, Li Chaofeng confirmed that the Divine Sword Thousand Blades was his companion spiritual weapon, which is beyond description as a divine weapon."

"After the magic weapon was revealed, Li Chaofeng claimed that he was born in the immortal world and was the reincarnated dragon from the upper world."

"The actions I have taken to help the people and save the world are only to gain merits to return to the immortal world."

"And this is why the Nine Heavens Mysterious Palace was established."

Hearing the name Jiu Tian Xuan Gong, the man in sackcloth clothes was stunned for a moment and asked in a cold voice.

"The person who almost killed you was Li Chaofeng?"

Chu Liuxiang sighed: "It's good that it's him. Although Li Chaofeng has a domineering personality, he is also a reasonable person."

"It's just that his principles are very different from the ethics of the world, but they are also mainly about punishing evil and promoting good. Moreover, after so many years, many of his twisted theories have been proven to be true."

"Chu Liuxiang has always been worried that Li Chaofeng would disregard his own life in order to achieve his ambitions, but he has never worried that Li Chaofeng would abandon good and do evil, thus committing a great evil and becoming hated by both humans and gods."

The curiosity of the man in sackcloth clothes was gradually aroused by Chu Liuxiang, and he responded casually.

"So what's going on with this Nine Heavens Mysterious Palace?"

If Li Chaofeng had not taken action, Chu Liuxiang would have been seriously injured or killed.

If he had not taken action himself, Chu Liuxiang would have been buried in Miaojiang long ago, and the world of martial arts would have lost a famous hero.

When Chu Liuxiang heard the question, he sighed and answered.

"The Nine Heavens Mysterious Palace is an organization composed of a group of delusional people who want to collect merits to become immortals."

The sackcloth-clothed man frowned: "Collecting merits?"

Chu Liuxiang nodded, with hesitation in his eyes.

Merit means achievements and virtues.

The words "merit and virtue" are never unfamiliar to the world's people.

"The Book of Rites: Royal Regulations" states that those who have made contributions to the people will be given more land and more laws.

Buddhism and Taoism also have their own explanations of merit, but they are slightly different.

But most of them do not care about achievements but value moral conduct.

According to Buddhists, good deeds, good karma and good virtues are all merits.

According to Taoists, one can also gain merit by practicing, cultivating the mind and improving virtue.

The merits and virtues described by the Scarlet Flame Dragon also talk about achievements and virtues, but they are fundamentally different from the merits and virtues described by the above three parties.

According to the three schools of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, merit lies in self-control.

Keep practicing and you will gain more every day.

However, Li Chaofeng's merits are limited.

Only by saving the world and saving people can you achieve great success.

Be kind to the people and you will be virtuous.

If the world were peaceful and no one needed to be rescued, then no matter how hard mortals tried to cultivate themselves, they would not have any merit at all.

That's why he, the reincarnated dragon, changed the rules of the world and prohibited the enslavement of humans.

This is his achievement.

The merits mentioned by the three families are just simple virtues and cannot be considered merits.

No matter how high one's virtue is, one can only be reborn as a human being, but there is no possibility of attaining enlightenment or becoming an immortal.
When these words were spoken, people all over the world were in unrest.

But Shaolin and Wudang kept silent, and the martial arts world did not dare to talk nonsense about right and wrong.

The world was divided into north and south, and the true dragon and the emperor divided the rule of the world.

The south is occupied exclusively by the Red Flame Dragon.

In the north, however, there are many mountains and various forces are intertwined and have their own differences.

Daqimen and Qinglong Society.

A thousand-year-old family, a famous and upright one.

Of course, there is also the emperor in the court.

The Daqimen returned to the Central Plains, stationed in various places in Guandong, and did their best to kill all those who committed evil.

The mysterious Qinglong boss also officially revealed his identity to the world and explained the work of the Qinglong Society.

The Qinglong Society is a security organization that protects the normal operation of merchants and shops.

As long as the gangsters don't smash up shops and interfere with the business of merchants, Qinglong will not interfere in the affairs of the gangsters. But if the gangsters dare to fight in the shop.
There is no mercy under the sword of Changsheng.

The Daqimen strongly protects the people, and the Qinglong Society protects the merchants with all its strength.

The two factions seem to have nothing to do with each other, but they always act together.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the two factions had formed a complete alliance and were still unclear about the relationship with the Shenlong Gang.

The Scarlet Flame Dragon did not go north, but its branches and leaves had already spread across the north and south.

But this fact has never been good news for the imperial court, aristocratic families, and famous and upright sects.

They saw clearly what was happening in the South.

The southern families were either killed, surrendered, or fled.

Although some survived, there are no more noble families in the south.
Big martial arts sects like Emei and Dian Cang can accept disciples, but they cannot break the rules.

Once someone does something like breaking the law by using force, the Shenlong Gang will do its best to eliminate him.

The noble and upright family has become a guard dog.

The imperial court did not even mention it.
Li Chaofeng directly placed purple dragon flags on government offices in various places, and even opened the way for officials to be promoted.

But under Li Chaofeng's rule, there was never any distinction between officials and local officials.

Even a scholar who can recite the books of sages by heart has to start his promotion as a minor official.

Moreover, no matter how high the official position is, one must be controlled by the Shenlong Gang’s Law Enforcement Hall.

The power to govern but not the power to judge.

There is no way to talk about the county magistrate who ruined the family or the prime minister who wiped out the clan.

People in the world did not understand Li Chaofeng's purpose, but after the battle of Haibi Mountain, Li Chaofeng completely established himself as the best in the world.

No matter how evil Li Chaofeng does now, no one dares to say "no".

These things are Li Chaofeng's achievements and also his merits.

And now, in the Miao area, which is scattered among thousands of mountains and rivers, some people are secretly collecting merits.

Seems the same.
It seems different.

The same thing is that Jiu Tian Xuan Gong’s plan has really improved the living conditions of the seedlings.

The difference is that their plan is very vicious.

It was so vicious that Chu Liuxiang just discovered it and wanted to see the true face of Jiutian Xuan Palace.

Unfortunately, Chu Liuxiang was discovered as soon as he sneaked into the Jiutian Xuan Palace.

Even more defeated
The hemp-clothed man was surprised: "You mean, you were not injured by a group of masters, but lost to one person?"

Chu Liuxiang nodded.
Chu Liuxiang is not an arrogant person. He has experienced the experience of losing when fighting alone.

just
Chu Liuxiang: "The woman who defeated me has a breathtaking aura."

"And I have only seen this special kind of true qi in one person."

The man in sackcloth was surprised: "The one who defeated you was a woman?"

Chu Liuxiang continued speaking with a hint of nostalgia in his eyes.

"Yes, woman."

"A woman with martial arts skills similar to Shi Guanyin."

"Except for the different color, that woman is just like the Stone Guanyin, able to turn her entire skin into a solid stone jade wall."

"Even if you are attacked by swords, you won't be hurt at all."

"I am convinced of this defeat."

The hemp-clothed man hesitated and asked casually.

"Did the woman use her fists or her sword?"

Chu Liuxiang lowered his head, his voice slightly dim.

"It's a fist."

The man in sackcloth narrowed his eyes. "So, there is another swordsman with lightning-fast swordsmanship in the Nine Heavens Mysterious Palace?"

Chu Liuxiang had two wounds on his body.

A fist in the shoulder, a sword wound in the lung.

As a swordsman, the man in sackcloth is always well aware of sword wounds.

Chu Liuxiang sighed: "His swordsmanship is always fast, so fast that it's unbelievable."

The man in sackcloth clothes reacted, looked at Chu Liuxiang, and asked hesitantly.

"Do you know that swordsman?"

Chu Liuxiang nodded indifferently: "Yes, I know him."

Looking up at the ceiling, Chu Liuxiang said with a sad look on his face.

"He is not only a descendant of a famous family, but also a praised chivalrous warrior."

"But now, he is burdened by his fame and has fallen into darkness."

The hemp man sighed, "Do you want to tell me his name?"

Chu Liuxiang, lying on the bed, closed his eyes and shook his head slightly.

"Not until he shows up again."

The man in sackcloth clothes did not ask any further questions. He gently withdrew his fingers and spoke in a low voice.

"Rest for another day, and I'll take you away from Miaojiang the day after tomorrow."
