Mortal Bones
Chapter 34: Knife Testing Pavilion, Li Xueqing vs. Knife Sharpening Boy
After confirming this, Li Xueqing suddenly looked at Bei Guoxiao with a complicated look, and then frowned and said:
"Brother Beiguo, I failed in the challenge just now, so you should challenge first in this round."
Fu Liu also smiled and said:
"Brother Beiguo, please!"
The reason why Fu Liu could still be so calm was that he knew very well that even if you had the means to successfully pass through the nine levels of the Wukui Building, you would definitely not be able to pass the sixth floor and higher floors.
Fu Liu smiled at Bei Guoxiao and murmured in his heart:
"The first to fifth floors are just used to help the disciples of Xuandan Palace to temper their physical strength and blood. The sixth floor is the real test of martial arts practice."
"These gatekeepers in the building are no longer dead things like the first to fifth floors. Once you cheat, you will definitely be expelled from the Wukui Building."
"At that time, there will be a good show to watch."
At this time, Fu Liu's mentality was almost exactly the same as Jiang Ping's at the beginning.
The only difference is that he knows much more about Wu Kui Tower than Jiang Ping.
Facing the questions from the elder and Fu Liu and Li Xueqing, Bei Guoxiao did not answer directly, but asked Xu Taiping in his heart:
"Shangxian, should we challenge now?"
Xu Taiping shook his head and said:
"Let's wait and see for a while."
Xu Taiping didn't know much about the knife-sharpening boy, so he could observe him secretly through Li Xueqing's challenge.
Upon hearing this, Bei Guoxiao looked at the elder and said:
"Elder Niu, since Junior Sister Xueqing is ready, let him challenge first."
Hearing this, Fu Liu and Li Xueqing looked at each other, and both showed joy in their eyes.
Fu Liu was happy.
Bei Guoxiao refused to go on stage immediately, which meant that he had some concerns in his heart, which just confirmed his previous guess.
In addition to having the same idea as Fu Liu, Li Xueqing was also happy that she didn't have to wait on the side and could continue to fight with the knife-sharpening boy directly.
This allowed her to maintain the state she had finally adjusted.
Immediately, Li Xueqing bowed to Bei Guoxiao and the elder and said:
"Since Senior Brother Bei Guo doesn't want to go on stage immediately, I won't be polite."
As she spoke, she saw her toes lightly tap the ground, and her figure jumped up very lightly and landed on the high platform.
At the same time, she pressed her hand on the handle of the knife, and said loudly without looking back:
"Li Xueqing, a disciple of Tianshuang Hall, comes to challenge the Xuan-level knife-sharpening boy!"
To defeat a Xuan-level knife-sharpening boy, who is also a disciple of Xuandan Palace, is the minimum requirement for going to the seventh floor.
The old man Zhang, whose hair and beard were all white, nodded slightly and said:
"Accurate!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a "boom" sound. A knife-sharpening boy puppet that was originally standing motionless on the north side of the high platform suddenly spread out a breath fluctuation that was almost equivalent to that of a cultivator in the Heavenly Questioning Realm, as well as the blood and qi of a warrior in the Martial Saint Realm.
Xu Taiping saw his strength and nodded secretly:
"The strength of the cultivation and combat power corresponding to the grade of this knife-sharpening boy seems to be similar to that of the Eight Pillars. It should also be set up by the Xuandan Palace for the convenience of disciples to practice."
Just when Xu Taiping was thinking this, there was a "swish" sound. Li Xueqing, who was originally standing quietly on the stage, suddenly drew her sword out of the sheath quickly, and slashed at the knife-sharpening boy with a sword as fast as lightning.
"Swish!"
The knife-sharpening boy also drew out the long sword at his waist almost at the same time, and slashed at Li Xueqing's sword.
"Boom!"
The moment the two blades collided, accompanied by a deafening sound of gas explosion, the blade shadows of Li Xueqing and the knife sharpening boy almost simultaneously turned into snowflakes all over the sky, entangled together.
However, the snowflakes were one white and one black, clearly distinguishable.
"Bang!"
Whenever two snowflakes collided, a burst of sound would be heard on the high platform.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!..."
For a while, the endless bursting sound kept exploding in the knife-testing pavilion.
At the same time, after each burst, everyone could see a blade shadow shattered.
However, just when the black and white snowflakes were about to be consumed in the collision with each other, Li Xueqing, who was hiding in the white snowflake, suddenly showed up, and held the knife with both hands to integrate all the blade shadows like flying snow behind him into it.
"Shua!..."
Amidst the piercing sound of breaking through the air, Li Xueqing merged with the long sword in her hand and the sword shadow behind her, which was like flying snow, and turned into a sword shadow of one or two hundred feet, crossing the high platform, breaking the black snow transformed by the sword of the boy sharpening the sword with one sword, forcing him to reveal his true form.
"Shua!"
But just when Li Xueqing was about to defeat the boy sharpening the sword with one sword, the boy sharpening the sword also merged the black snow-like sword shadow behind him into one sword, and faced Li Xueqing's sword shadow of one hundred feet.
"Bang!..."
Amidst the loud sound, Li Xueqing's white snow sword shadow and the boy sharpening the sword's black snow sword shadow were broken almost at the same time.
The swords of both sides were also broken almost at the same time.
After a brief silence at the scene, Jiang Yan suddenly shouted with regret:
"It's a draw!"
That's right, this round of Li Xueqing and the Xuan-level boy sharpening the sword ended in a draw.
The other Xuandan Palace disciples who were watching the fight also expressed regret at this moment, and were also amazed at the knife that Li Xueqing had just used to almost defeat the knife-grinding boy.
Not only them, but even Bei Guoxiao, after seeing Li Xueqing and the knife-grinding boy fight to a draw, stomped his feet with a look of regret.
Seeing this, the sword ghost couldn't help but said amusedly:
"This boy is really a little lover. Li Xueqing was flirting with Liu Qing in front of him, and he actually felt sorry for her."
Xu Taiping also didn't understand very much.
At this time, Liantong's voice suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping's mind:
"This kid must have been struck by infatuation."
"Although I don't know how to explain it, judging from the fact that he grabbed you and refused to let go, it should be that he instinctively wants to use you to find a way to break the disaster for himself."
When Xu Taiping heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up and he said:
"It does seem possible."
Judging from the experience between Bei Guoxiao and Li Xueqing, as well as his behavior at the moment, it does not look like the behavior of a normal monk.
Just at this time.
After Bei Guo Xiao saw Li Xueqing walking down the platform, he seemed to have lost his soul and walked towards her journeying.
"Crack!"
But just when he was about to approach Li Xueqing, Fu Liu suddenly shook his wide sleeves gently, threw out a strong wind to block him, and sneered:
"Junior Brother Beiguo, it's time for you to prepare to take the stage."
Although Bei Guoxiao's eyes were full of anger, he finally calmed down and looked at Li Xueqing from a distance and said:
"Junior Sister Xueqing, the knife you just struck was very good, and you will definitely be able to defeat that knife-sharpening boy in the next round!"
Li Xueqing, who was sharing her joy with Fu Liu, just glanced at Bei Guoxiao inadvertently, then nodded expressionlessly, and started chatting happily with Fu Liu again.
For a moment, Beiguo smiled like an eggplant beaten by frost, with a wilted head and a droopy head, lifeless.
Xu Taiping, who was watching silently, finally asked:
"If you want to pass the test on the sixth floor, do you want to prove something to Li Xueqing?"
The depressed Bei Guo laughed, nodded calmly, and then responded to Xu Taiping in his heart:
"Xueqing and I have known each other since childhood. We were very close until we came to Xuandan Palace. It is precisely because of this that the two families had an engagement."
"But since I came to Xuandan Palace, everything has changed. She said that I am ignorant and unskilled, that I am not enterprising, and that she is unwilling to entrust her life to someone like me."
"So I will take the initiative to tear up the marriage contract at the risk of death."
"But I always feel that we shouldn't be like this."
"That's why I want you, Shangxian, to help me pass the test on the sixth floor and win the qualification to go to the inner gate of Xuandan Palace. Then I'll ask her if there is still room for maneuver between the two of us."
Bei Guoxiao then added:
"Due to some reasons with the Beiguo family, no matter how hard I worked, I would never be able to get up to the sixth floor in this life. That's why when you, the Immortal, possessed me, instead of being afraid, I was very happy. "
Bei Guoxiao continued:
"Shangxian, I know that your trip is not just for the purpose of coming to Wukui Tower to practice."
"But it doesn't matter. As long as I can help you achieve this wish, even if you want to take it away from me, I, Bei Guoxiao, will never resist at all."
When Xu Taiping heard this, he secretly said in his heart:
"This Beiguo Xiao is indeed not as unlearned and unskilled as he appears on the surface."
