Martial Arts Becomes Invincible Starting from the Golden Body

Chapter 45: The World of Troubled Times, The List of Prodigies

Martial Arts Backyard
Fang Chen looked at Li Shishi expectantly. He had a feeling that he would learn something remarkable today.

Although Li Zhen has a wide range of knowledge, he has been staying in Tongcheng for too long, so he may not be as well-informed as Li Shishi in some news.

"Hmm...how should I say it?"

"Let's start with the purpose of our visit to Xingliu Valley!" Li Shishi said after thinking for a moment.

"Xingliu Valley came here this time probably to meet Hu Rui in troubled times!" she said with a frown.

"The Chaos Society?"

Fang Chen muttered to himself, judging from the name it doesn't seem like a serious thing!
"Well, this Chaos Society is a secret organization that emerged more than 30 years ago. As its name suggests, this society has stirred up troubles in all parts of the Nine Regions.

The world is in such a mess now, and it’s all due to them fanning the flames!" Li Shishi said with disgust in her tone.

Fang Chen seemed to be thinking about something. He didn't believe that someone would be so idle for no reason, just for profit.

In times of chaos, it is easier to fish in troubled waters, but in times of peace, they have no chance.

"This Hu Rui is from the Chaos Society! He and my Xingliu Valley have a deep hatred for each other, and a senior in the valley severely injured him a few days ago.

I heard that he was heading towards Tong County, so he must be trying to escape to Xuzhou through the Liuyin Mountains."

"Hu Rui? How strong is this person?" Fang Chen asked.

Li Shishi said in a deep voice: "This person is on the Tianjiao list. Although he is only ranked at the bottom, I am afraid that grandpa is the only one in the whole Tongcheng who can take him down!"

"So strong?"

Fang Chen was shocked and felt uneasy. After all, from Li Shishi's words, he could tell that the Chaos Society was an organization that was eager to create chaos in the world.

Being in the same city with people from this organization feels like having a time bomb around you!
"Don't worry, Hu Rui was seriously injured, and his strength has declined to the point where he can't even cross the Liuyin Mountains. He will definitely not dare to take action in the city." Li Shishi looked at his expression and said with a smile.

"Ah."

Fang Chen nodded reluctantly, but he didn't dare to relax at all.

"And when Senior Brother Feng arrives, he is also on the Tianjiao List, so it shouldn't be a problem to capture him." Li Shishi continued.

"Third List of Geniuses?"

Fang Chen heard her mention it again and immediately asked.

"This list is compiled by Xuanji Pavilion, and includes young geniuses under the age of 30 in the Great Xuan Nine Regions. It is said that it has a history of more than 5,000 years!"

"In prosperous times, being on this list can make you famous, and in troubled times, you will attract even more attention!" Even Li Shishi's calm eyes revealed a hint of yearning.

Fang Chen nodded, and then asked curiously: "Then what rank does the Senior Brother Feng that Hu Rui and you mentioned rank in?"

"There are a total of 300 people on the Tianjiao Ranking. Hu Rui ranks 290th. Senior Brother Feng is higher, ranking 282nd!"

Li Shishi paused and said, "Don't underestimate this ranking. Even the person at the bottom has the strength of the third level of blood coagulation."

"Brothers Hu Rui and Feng are probably not much different in strength from the fourth level of blood coagulation!"

Of course Fang Chen would not underestimate the nine regions of Daxuan. Each region has eight states, one state has dozens of counties, and one county has hundreds of counties.

Tong County alone covers an area of ​​nearly a thousand miles. With such a vast territory of Daxuan, how many heroes and heroes should there be!
Being able to rank among the top 300 among the younger generation in the entire Daxuan area, how could he have the right to look down on others?
Not to mention that his strength far exceeds his own.

Of course, he is not discouraged. If he is given enough time, he can defeat these people one by one!

"By the way, why didn't Xingliu Valley send stronger people?"

Fang Chen was a little puzzled. From what she said, the difference in strength between Senior Brother Feng and Hu Rui was not that big. Even if the latter was seriously injured, he was not safe, right?

Since this person has a deep hatred for Xingliu Valley, it is impossible for them to still stick to the moral code of the martial arts world and compete with each other, right?

Besides, an organization like the Chaos Society is a troublemaker and should be condemned by everyone. With Fang Chen's personality, he would just drag out the sect's ancestor and crush him to death!

"Hey, do you think the sect doesn't want to?"

Li Shishi sighed, "But we really can't spare any manpower. Senior Brother Feng rushed here right after he finished the last thing."

"Recently, the situation in various places has become increasingly severe. The elders of the sects have their own duties. Xingliu Valley also controls many secret realms and even blessed places. We must not relax in these places!"

"It was Hu Rui's bad luck. He just happened to run into an elder in the sect. Otherwise, no one would have had the time to chase him down."

"Uh... that's really unlucky!" Fang Chen was a little speechless.

"Okay, this matter has nothing to do with us. At most, the martial arts hall will give us some convenience when the time comes."

Fang Chen nodded. He just wanted to develop well now, and these dangerous things should be as far away from him as possible.

……

In a dim secret room, a short man was frowning as he looked at the pale, short-haired young man in front of him.

"Hu Rui, what are you doing here? And why are you so badly injured?"

"Cough cough!"

Hu Rui coughed violently a few times, and the last bit of blood on his face disappeared without a trace.

"Don't mention it. It was so damn unlucky that I ran into an old guy in Xingliu Valley!"

After saying that, he covered his chest and hurriedly said, "Hurry up, do you have any healing pills? I'm dying!"

The short man threw a jade bottle from his arms to him, and a look of pain flashed across his face.

"Here, this is the Golden Jade Pill. Remember to return it to me!"

Hu Rui quickly took it and said happily: "Hey, you still have this good thing?"

He poured out a golden pill the size of a longan from the bottle and quickly put it into his mouth. His face suddenly became much redder and his speech was not as weak anymore.

The short man's heart was bleeding when he saw this, this thing was in short supply in the meeting, and it was difficult to exchange it just by making contributions.

He used his connections to get it because the mission was dangerous, but he didn't expect that it would benefit Hu Rui.

"Okay, don't feel bad, I have a great achievement for you." Hu Rui smiled after he caught his breath.

"Ok?"

The short man looked at him with disbelief. If you really have the credit, can you give it to me?
"Don't disbelieve me. If my prediction is correct, after I am seriously injured, Xingliu Valley will definitely not let go of this opportunity and will definitely come after me!"

The short man almost started a fight. Is this the credit you mentioned? Are you deliberately bringing trouble to me?
"Don't be anxious, my dear brother!" After his injury healed, Hu Rui returned to his previous playful appearance.

"As you know, Xingliu Valley has been in a lot of trouble recently, and the elders are definitely not available to help, so I guess the one who came should be Feng Chengxuan!"

"Oh?"

The short man's eyes flickered as he recalled Feng Chengxuan's information. A person on the Tianjiao List must be very valuable!

Seeing that he was excited, Hu Rui struck while the iron was hot and said, "Don't forget how Xingliu Valley got this fiefdom in the first place. If you kill the core disciples of this sect, your contribution will be doubled in the meeting!"

"Not to mention that Feng Chengxuan is on the Tianjiao Ranking, so his price is not lower than that of ordinary elders. According to my estimation, it is at least this amount!"

After saying that, he stretched out a few fingers. The short man's heart beat fast after seeing them, but there was still some hesitation on his face.

"Oh, my dear brother, why are you still hesitating at this opportunity? It's not easy to block Feng Chengxuan alone in this tiny place."

"With your strength, even if all the people in the city are combined, we can still defeat them, right?" Hu Rui said anxiously.

Not only did he fail in his mission and suffer serious injuries, but he also lost the weapon that he had worked so hard to save up to exchange for contributions. He was truly bankrupt.

He was eager to make some money from this job.

"Don't underestimate Tong County. It's okay for others, but Li Guiyuan and Shangguan Hong are both here!" The short man shook his head and warned.

"Li Guiyuan? Shangguan Hong?"

It sounded familiar to Hu Rui, but he couldn't remember where it came from.

It was the short man who finally reminded him,
"Xuan Yang Sect."

Hu Rui was startled and blurted out, "Xuan Yang Sect's true disciple, Li Guiyuan, who is ranked ninth on the Tianjiao list?"

"He was ranked ninth on the list of geniuses forty years ago!" the short man emphasized.

"Didn't they say he died a long time ago?" Hu Rui said in disbelief.

He looked around and wanted to run away. He thought he had come to a rabbit hole, but unexpectedly there was a tiger sleeping next to it.

Seeing his useless appearance, the short man sneered, "Why are you panicking?"

Hu Rui looked at him fearfully. How could he not panic? He was ranked ninth on the Tianjiao list. He was a monster who could condense blood and rival Xuan Gang!
This happened forty years ago. It is hard to estimate what level of realm Li Guiyuan is in now. Is he just waiting to die if he doesn't run away?
"Why are you panicking? Can't you see I'm still alive and well?"

Hu Rui was stunned. Yes, how come you are still alive.

"Don't worry. Although we don't know why he didn't die, he was seriously injured forty years ago. He is no longer the genius who dominated the whole area. Now he only has the strength of the fifth level of blood coagulation!" said the short man lightly.

"Uh...are you kidding?" Hu Rui opened his mouth.

"I don't have time to joke with you!"

The short man glared at him. If it wasn't for this, he would have run away long ago. Even if it was the hall master's mission, he couldn't be asked to come and die.

But he was not much better at the beginning. Even though he knew he was useless, he still tried again and again. It was really because his reputation was too great!
"Then what are you afraid of?" Hu Rui felt that he was fine again.

Then he thought of Shangguan Hong again, and this time he reacted quickly.

"Shangguan Hong is the useless grandson of Marquis Yaoguang?"

After seeing the short man nod, he cared even less. He was just a waste who didn't even have a superior physique. He didn't know how the son of Marquis Yaoguang was born!

He can only show off his power in this small place. I'm afraid Li Guiyuan is still strong even though he is in his seventies or eighties.

"You two old losers, what are you hesitating about?"

The short man thought about it for a long time and decided to tell the truth.

"I accepted the mission from Dongfang Hall Master this time. I can't bear the consequences if I mess things up because of helping you."

"Master Dongfang?"

Hu Rui was shocked and looked unconvinced. What could such a big shot ask you to do?
The short man waved, and Hu Rui leaned over to listen curiously.

"That's it..."

After he finished speaking, Hu Rui seemed to be thinking about something, but he still didn't quite understand why Master Dongfang did this. Was it purely to vent?

"That's all I know." The short man said expressionlessly.

Hu Rui understood, but they didn't dare to ask more!
The short man had some guesses in his mind, but he didn't dare to say them out loud. Master Dongfang was a violent person, and he didn't dare to seek death.

He believed that Hu Rui was a smart man and would not tell anyone.

If he hadn't gotten permission from Hall Master Dongfang to find some help, he wouldn't have dared to tell Hu Rui.

"Well, this matter is simple. After killing Feng Chengxuan, I will help you!" Hu Rui said after thinking for a while.

He really didn't want to miss this opportunity, so he was willing to get involved in this mess.

"So good!"

The short man was delighted, as this was exactly his purpose, otherwise he would not have told Hu Rui about the mission.

To be honest, even though Li Guiyuan looked useless, he was under a lot of pressure.

"But the mission of Hall Master Dongfang is more important. You should hide for now. Then I will arrange for a few of my men to make some noise from time to time to lure Feng Chengxuan out."

"Everything will take place after I am ready. Then we will kill Feng Chengxuan first and complete the mission immediately!"

"So as not to alert the enemy!"

Hu Rui grumbled a few words reluctantly, but still accepted his plan. After all, he alone could not take down Feng Chengxuan.

"If not, we can just kill Li Guiyuan and Shangguan Hong together. Even though they are two old losers, they are still worth some contribution, right?"

Hu Rui thought for a while and said, he felt excited when he thought that he had a chance to kill the former top genius.

"Well, we'll talk about it later."

The short man did not refuse. If things went well, he could do it!
