Chapter 272 A small boat with leaves

To the west of the city, Xiaozhengzhuang.

This was the place where Liu Qi and Xiu Shaoyang had fought before.

The place where Liu Qi's sword energy reached that day is still barren and the gray-brown ground is bare.

A figure wrapped in golden light stood in the open space.

Feng Qun raised his head slightly, his eyes fixed on the slender figure in the air. His eyes, which were dyed with golden light, kept flickering, revealing his inner uneasiness.

Liu Qi was suspended in mid-air, with his hands behind his back, his feet as if walking on flat ground, with a calm and relaxed demeanor.

It was not until Feng Qun's face could no longer be seen clearly in the golden light that Liu Qi's calm eyes showed a slight movement.

"It seems that this is the ultimate of Feng Qun."

Liu Qi still waited patiently for a moment, and after discovering that Feng Qun's aura had no longer increased significantly, he lowered his eyes slightly, and his right arm, which was behind his back, slowly dropped to his side.

Whoosh!
Amid the pleasant sound of breaking through the air, Liu Qi flashed over, so fast that Feng Qun's eyes widened to the extreme, but he could only vaguely see the afterimage floating in the air and Liu Qi who suddenly appeared in front of him!

hum!
The five white and slender fingers slowly and gently pressed on the light shield condensed by golden light.

Feng Qun, who was in the light shield, only felt the blood in his body churning, and then he saw snowflake-like cracks appearing in the solid golden energy in front of him, and he seemed to hear a crisp cracking sound in his ears!

Feng Qun's heart sank immediately. He tried hard to suppress the discomfort caused by the churning of Qi and blood in his body, and then frantically urged his true Qi.

"Ah!"

Following Feng Qun's loud shout, the golden light that was originally condensed in front of him was instantly gathered into his body.

when--

Liu Qi stretched out his right hand and pressed it on his chest, but a metallic clanging sound was heard. At the same time, a surging air wave spread out from the two of them, sweeping away all the dust on the ground!
call--

After the strong wind, the world returned to silence.

Feng Qun, who seemed to be covered in a layer of gold paint, silently lowered his eyes to look at the palm that Liu Qi had impressed on his chest. After a moment, he slowly raised his head, looked at Liu Qi and said in a deep voice: "Miss Liu's magical power is unparalleled. Feng is ashamed to be inferior to her!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Qi suddenly withdrew his palm. Feng Qun's body trembled slightly, and he staggered back two steps before he stabilized his body.

Liu Qi straightened the hem of her skirt that had just been messed up by the strong wind, then put her right arm behind her back again, stood with her hands behind her back, looked up at Feng Qun who was standing still, and said calmly:
"No wonder Shaolin Temple is obsessed with this magical skill."

When he fought with Feng Qun for the first time, the opponent had not yet mastered the Vajra Indestructible Kung Fu, and was only considered above average among the top masters.

The second time he fought with Feng Qun, he had already mastered the Vajra Indestructible Art through the help of Dharma King Tuoye. Although he was finally defeated by Liu Qi with a single sword strike, his cultivation level was already among the best.

Fighting with Feng Qun again today, Liu Qi discovered that his cultivation had improved again, and his golden body was more condensed than last time. Although Liu Qi did not draw his sword, he used murderous intent in his palm power, and finally broke the opponent's golden body protection.

Now Feng Qun is qualified to compete for the top spot!

As for the ultimate state, it depends on his own luck.

Feng Qun had calmed down the turbid breath in his body by now. After slowly exhaling the foul air, he smiled and responded, "In fact, in Shaolin, there are a few martial arts that are better than the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art. It's just that the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art has other miraculous effects, so it has always been regarded as the first miraculous skill in Buddhism."

The so-called miraculous effects mentioned by Feng Qun naturally refer to the fact that when practitioners condense their golden body through enlightenment, it can also improve the cultivation level of those who are enlightened.

The most important thing is that the requirements for the one being initiated are not high. After practicing the introductory skills of the Shaolin Arhat Hall, one can withstand an initiation and directly ascend to the top ranks.

If one wants to cultivate a perfect Vajra Indestructible Body, one must condense the Golden Body eighteen times through the initiation method. In other words, a monk who practices the Vajra Indestructible Art can create eighteen top masters.

Although these eighteen people are just beginning to reach the top level, they are still the top!
By the way, these eighteen people were called the Eighteen Bronze Men inside the Shaolin Temple in the past!
Feng Qun had previously condensed a golden body through Tuoye, but he didn't know how many times he still needed to condense before he could achieve the perfect Vajra Indestructible Body.

Liu Qi stared at Feng Qun's face and asked softly, "I heard that you have met several times in private with a stranger wearing a felt hat recently. The other party should be from Shaolin, right?"

Feng Qun's smile faded instantly upon hearing this, and he nodded immediately: "Yes, this person is the head monk Jingxian of Shaolin Bodhi Temple."

"You really don't want to go back to Shaolin?" Liu Qi asked.

Feng Qun was silent for a long time before he slowly nodded. He then turned to face Liu Qi, raised his head slightly and looked towards the sky. He then sighed, "I'm afraid there is no place for me in Shaolin anymore."

Feng Qun knew very well that once he returned to Shaolin and handed over the method to condense the Vajra Indestructible Divine Art, he would completely lose his name and become an inconspicuous sweeping monk in the thousand-year-old temple, with the green lamp accompanying him for the rest of his life.

He was young and didn't understand why those old monks with great martial arts skills in the Sutra Library were willing to be an unknown sweeping monk.

It was not until later that he realized that not everyone in this world has the opportunity to choose.

Liu Qi said softly: "Master of Bodhi Temple, your martial arts are so sparse, it seems that Shaolin is really suppressed by the general."

Feng Qun's heart trembled, and he turned around and asked, "Miss, have you met Jingxian?"

Liu Qi shook his head and replied, "I haven't seen him, but he hasn't noticed anything even though he has been under surveillance by my people for so long. I guess he's not only weak in martial arts, but also not very smart."

Feng Qun couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard Liu Qi's evaluation of his junior fellow apprentice: "Jingxian...is good at general affairs, and his talent in other areas is indeed mediocre."

Responsible for general affairs, that is, mainly responsible for logistics in Shaolin Temple.

Such a person can become the head monk of Bodhi Temple. It seems that Shaolin is really out of ideas!
Liu Qi stared at Feng Qun for a few seconds, then silently looked away.

Feng Qun is not without feelings for Shaolin. The reason why he is unwilling to go back is that he feels a little resentful because his position as abbot was snatched away by Jingchen.

Another reason was that they were worried that his experience of lurking in the Vajra Gate would become a black spot in the eyes of Shaolin, and that he would be placed under house arrest after returning to Shaolin.

Shaolin is more than just a Buddhist sect. It has an influence in the martial arts world and the imperial court that cannot be underestimated, and its power is unmatched by any other martial arts force.

The reason why Zhou Weiyang suppressed Shaolin so hard and disbanded the Martial Monks Academy without any discussion was because he saw the threat that Shaolin posed to Da Qi in all aspects.

No matter how powerful other underworld forces are, they are only stirring up trouble in the underworld. If they want to replace the secular dynasty, their own structure will not be able to bear it.

But Shaolin is different.

If one day Shaolin's strength surpasses that of the martial arts world and the imperial court, it could really replace them, take power into its own hands, and establish a Buddhist kingdom on earth that combines politics and religion.

……

The reason why Liu Qi sought out Feng Qun was that apart from Feng Qun, who possessed an indestructible body, she could not find anyone else to practice sword skills with in Qingjiang Prefecture.

Tao Zhiyan's master Qing Zhuke is only of an upper-middle-class standard, and most likely has the same problem as Tao Zhiyan. When competing with them, Liu Qi is afraid that they might suddenly have an idea and bump into his sword.

Hey……

Liu Qi rubbed the Jingji Knife at his waist in boredom.

Bored and want to kill someone.

Even Feng Qun only temporarily relieved Liu Qi's itchy hands.

Seeing Liu Qi's hand gently stroking the scabbard at her waist, Feng Qun couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart, and then hurriedly said: "Miss Liu, the whereabouts of that Tang Sect man have been found."

"Oh?"

Finally, something exciting has happened.

Feng Qun secretly exhaled, sorted out his thoughts, and said slowly: "I have already found out that this Tang Li's real name is Wu Li, and he is the son of Wu Long, the chief priest of the Wu clan in Southern Xinjiang."

"The Wu clan has close ties with the Tang Clan in Shu, and Wu Long has even become a sworn brother with Tang Huaiqiu, the leader of the Tang Clan. Tang Huaiqiu was over 40 and childless, so he adopted Wu Li as his adopted son."

"But not long ago, Wei Qingya, the eldest daughter of the Wei family, gave Tang Huaiqiu a son. It is said that Tang Huaiqiu has leaked to the Tang Sect that he will officially appoint his son as the young master of the Tang Sect at the full moon banquet. This makes Tang Li's position awkward." After listening to Feng Qun's words, Liu Qi immediately whispered, "From this point of view, Tang Li's sending people to the Xu Mansion to provoke was most likely not at the instruction of Wei Liang, but most likely to divert the trouble and use me to get rid of Wei Qingya and her son?"

Feng Qun nodded, and then seemed to have thought of something, looking at Liu Qi helplessly: "But Wei Liang... has died in the hands of the girl."

Liu Qi replied without thinking: "Who cares? Even if this incident didn't happen, Wei Liang's son Wei Xin died in my hands."

The corners of Feng Qun's mouth twitched slightly, and then he closed his mouth tightly.

I have to say, this guy's ability to cause trouble is truly first-rate.

The title of Overlord is indeed not given for nothing.

"Where is he?" Liu Qi asked, "Since he borrowed my knife to kill someone, I should ask him for a reward."

Feng Qun immediately replied, "He left Qingjiang Prefecture the night of the incident. My spies reported that he appeared in the territory of Junshan Lake and seemed to be preparing to go to the Junshan Headquarters of the Beggars' Sect."

"Beggars' Sect!" Liu Qi's mouth curled up slightly.

……

The 800-li Junshan Lake is endless. Looking around, the emerald green lake water and the blue sky are connected into a line, which really fits the saying that the autumn water and the sky are the same color.

A boat was sailing slowly on the lake.

The man wrapped in a black robe stood on the deck, looking at the Junshan Island which was getting smaller and smaller in the distance, with a layer of haze on his face.

"Master Li, don't be angry anymore. Junshan Island is now ruled by the master of Jiangnan Knights' Hall. If he doesn't ask, the Beggars' Sect won't let you onto the island."

A middle-aged man in a blue Confucian robe appeared beside the man in black robe and persuaded him softly.

The man wrapped in the black robe was Tang Li. After sending people to provoke Xu's residence, he left Qingjiang Prefecture overnight and headed straight for Junshan Island, the headquarters of the Beggar Gang. In his opinion, as long as he entered Junshan Island, even if Liu Bawang knew that he was behind the plot, he would never dare to come to him.

But when he arrived at Junshan Island, he was turned away by the Beggars' Gang before he even got off the boat.

Tang Li was the son of the high priest in southern Xinjiang. Everyone in the tribe flattered him. Later, he became Tang Huaiqiu's adopted son and was trained as the young master of the Tang Clan.

When has he ever been so angry?
Fortunately, Tang Li still had some brains and did not make trouble on the spot. In the end, he turned the boat around and sailed away from Junshan Island.

The main problem was the Beggar Gang elder named Su who was blocking the ferry. His aura was too powerful. Tang Li knew that he was no match for him, so he could only retreat as a sign of respect.

Click!

His fists hidden under his black robe were clenched so tightly that they made crackling sounds, and it was obvious that he was still furious.

The middle-aged man in a blue Confucian robe beside him glanced at Tang Li out of the corner of his eye when he heard the voice, then smiled silently and said nothing more.

"Look, what is that!"

"It looks like a small boat."

"There's another person on board!"

……

Suddenly, the sailors on the deck swarmed to the bow and pointed at the distance.

Tang Li and the middle-aged man in blue shirt also walked forward upon seeing this, and then they saw a small boat coming against the wind at the place where the sky and water met in the distance, with a figure standing on the boat.

Tang Li looked at the dazzling pink figure in the distance and couldn't help but frown.

"This wind direction..."

The low murmur of the middle-aged man in blue shirt beside him startled Tang Li instantly!
Yes, this wind direction... is clearly blowing towards that leaf boat!
However, the other party was sailing against the wind at an incredibly fast speed, while the pink figure on the boat stood still like a sculpture.

There was no one steering the boat!
"I'm coming!"

Amid the boatman's excited and slightly fearful cheers, the small boat finally approached within a hundred meters of the big ship.

"Whoosh!"

Then everyone saw the figure on the lone boat suddenly jump up.

Everyone raised their heads, following the figure to mid-air, and then looked at the pink-dressed woman hanging in the air, and everyone couldn't help but look horrified.

Liu Qi glanced around and instantly locked onto the black figure on the boat a hundred meters away. He then flew away with his hands behind his back and in the blink of an eye he was above the ship.

The man in black robe seemed to have seen Liu Qi's face clearly, and his expression suddenly changed. Then the black robe that was wrapped tightly around his body suddenly opened up, and countless silver lights poured out and went straight towards Liu Qi!

ding ding ding...

Liu Qi still walked with her hands behind her back. Just as the dense silver light approached her, a green light suddenly appeared behind her. In an instant, the sound of swords and wind whistling echoed, and countless sword qi formed a barrier in front of her to block all the silver light.

When the last ray of silver light was swallowed by the sword energy, Liu Qi had already arrived at the bow. His eyes moved slightly, and the sword energy in front of him instantly condensed into a green blade light, which pierced towards the man in black robe like a stream of light.

laugh!
The man in black robe had no time to react. He could only watch as the green blade light passed through his body. The expression on his face froze instantly. Then he slowly lowered his eyes to look in front of him. He saw that his clothes were intact and there was no sign of injury. But he was the only one who understood that his life force was madly draining away from his heart.

"You..." Tang Li used his last bit of strength to raise his head and look at Liu Qi who was already standing on the deck.

"Liu Qi." Liu Qi slowly uttered two words, and then moved his gaze away from the man in black robe.

boom!
The moment her gaze moved away, Tang Li fell on his back and landed heavily on the wooden deck.

The boatmen around couldn't help but change their expressions upon seeing this. They looked at Liu Qi with fear in their eyes and retreated one after another, fearing that they would end up like Tang Li.

Only the middle-aged man in blue shirt stood there from beginning to end. He glanced at Tang Li who was already dead on the ground, and then stared at Liu Qi, with unfathomable depth in his eyes.

Liu Qi turned his eyes and looked at the man in blue shirt: "Are you in the same group with him?"

"Yes." The middle-aged man in blue shirt said concisely.

"Then you deserve to die too." Liu Qi said calmly.

The middle-aged man in blue shirt's eyes moved slightly, and then a smile appeared on his lips, and then he replied softly: "Okay!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man in blue shirt suddenly took out a dagger from his arms and stabbed himself in the heart!

Seeing that the blade was already against her chest, but the woman didn't show any reaction, the middle-aged man in blue shirt felt a sudden panic in his heart, and the strength in his hand was quietly released.

laugh!
The man in blue shirt widened his eyes instantly. The dagger did not stop as he expected. Instead, the hand holding the handle suddenly lost control for some reason and stabbed the knife directly into his chest!
"You..." The middle-aged man raised his head in surprise, staring at Liu Qi with wide eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but found that Liu Qi had turned around with his back to him.

"No need to thank me." Liu Qi's voice came, "It seems that you are reluctant to do it, so I'll help you!"

The middle-aged man trembled violently when he heard the sound!
This kind of playing hard to get trick has always worked!
Doesn't she want to know who is behind all this?

The middle-aged man had a lot of things he wanted to say at once, but his lips kept opening and closing, but he couldn't utter a single word. In the end, he could only stare with his eyes wide open and fall on the deck.

Liu Qi heard the noise coming from behind him, and immediately took two steps forward to the bow, jumped up and left the ship.

She came here to kill people, not to solve crimes.

Kill someone and leave your name behind, that's enough.

As for whether there is really someone behind Tang Li, if they have the guts, they can just hide for the rest of their lives!
