The Conceited Young Man

Da Niu casually walked on the street. It had been half a month since the earth-shattering incident of the Sun Competition. Every time he thought about it, he would feel very depressed.

He was already very close to success. If it wasn't for the unexpected … As long as the competition came to an end, he believed that no one else present would notice anything amiss. At most, he would accidentally leak some of his aura when facing that boxing guy, but he quickly covered it up. How despicable!

Da Niu sighed helplessly.

"Big brother, we came here to challenge you …" Isn't it a bit too abrupt, and might be discovered by him? "

The one who spoke was a thin man who had become Da Niu's brother after the first battle.

"Second Brother, I also know that if we continue like this, we might be seen through. However, at this point, we have no way out. Now that the war is about to break out in the Northwest, who knows when that person might have left Longxi. Now, it's our last and best chance, when he becomes a member of the army, don't even think about it! "

It turned out that these two people were the hidden moves of the sparring Zhuo Bu. According to the plan, Da Niu should go up to challenge Xu Qingzhi at the end of the martial competition. With the excuse of exchanging pointers, Xu Qingzhi would naturally relax after seeing Da Niu's previous performance. At this point, it was time to use his killing move. He did not give Xu Qingzhi and the people in charge of the bodyguards any time to react.

For a battle on the level of a Great Grandmaster, just the aftermath of the battle was not something an ordinary person could handle. Moreover, this Great Grandmaster had come for the life of Xu Qing, and now, the Martial Competition could not go on anymore, and Da Niu's plan had been broken.

The most unacceptable thing was that the assassin was a Grandmaster. This had allowed that fellow to survive. It was obvious that the man fighting with Qing Shiyu was only a level two, but some secret technique had caused him to be able to contend against a Great Zongshi realm expert for the time being. In the end, he had even forced Qing Shiyu to go berserk. Although the man had died in battle, this method was enough to shock the world.

Just as he was thinking, Da Niu and his second brother had already arrived in front of the Residence of the Marquis of Peace.

"Brother, in a while, we will treat it as leaving Long Xi, and as coming to visit, don't mention the matter of a spar at all. "When we are about to leave, I will show some hesitation. At that time, it will be up to you to say that I, your brother, have been muttering about not being able to fight with Crown Prince for the past few days. I don't know if I will ever have the chance to see you again …"

Big Newton stopped talking. The skinny young man was a little confused.

"Big Brother …" "What's wrong?"

"Something's not right …"

The doors to the house of the Marquis opened wide. Two stone lions stood by the door in silence, but … It was too quiet. Even if the Hou Mansion was powerful and didn't even have a guard at the door, it would still be empty when they looked in through the door. Let alone a busy servant, they wouldn't even be able to see a single one sweeping the floor.

"Let's go!"

Da Niu's heart skipped a beat and he quickly pulled his second brother over.

"Since you've come, why are you in such a hurry to leave? Stay and watch a play together. "

Xu Qingzhi's soft voice came from the house of the Marquis, but these words fell like thunder onto Da Niu's ears.

"Come in, it's not like the door is closed."

After a long time, Da Niu let out a sigh. This young crown prince had been mistaken about him. What young and vigorous, the temperament of a teenager. Everyone had been scolded by him in the street, and he had even fooled them in the martial arts competition. This crown prince had thousands of ditches in his chest, and he looked like he was acting according to his will, but in reality, he had already made up his mind …

So, he had already been seen through?

After seeing through it, Da Niu calmed down.

"I am all alone, but my second brother's mother is sick in bed, my second brother is … in a hurry to get home and make medicine for her mother. "

"Alright."

Da Niu quickly gave his second brother a meaningful glance. He was afraid that Xu Qingzhi would go back on his word.

"Big Brother …" "No, I'm not leaving!"

"Go!" The aunt is bedridden. Do you want the aunt to die on the sickbed alone? "

After some tugging and tugging, he was finally ordered by Da Niu to leave.

Seeing that Xu Qingzhi had let him pass, Da Niu no longer had any worries and strode into the house of the Marquis.

As soon as he entered the gates, Da Niu immediately realized that something was wrong. He couldn't move his inner strength at all. This meant that the mansion had set up some kind of restriction that allowed him to suppress his cultivation base completely. He could only use pure physical strength.

No, that's not right. Da Niu had some doubts in his mind. Logically speaking, even if he saw through his plan, there was no need to spend so much time and effort to lay down this kind of restriction to capture him. Since he had already seen through himself, as long as Xu Qingzhi did not let down his guard, even if it was a one on one fight, he would not have much chance of winning.

"I had thought that the martial arts world would at least look the same. There was that silly girl Yun Chang, the young man who had the dream of roaming the world like I did in the past, and the guy who had the heroic spirit of a hero and was happy to take revenge on me. "But the martial arts world is really not doing well anymore."

Xu Qingzhi strolled over. The three stewards were standing to one side with their hands folded. Following behind them was Ying Cai.

"What do you know? F * cking hell!"

Da Niu no longer had any scruples. Since he was already at the mercy of others, no matter what, he would still die. It would be better to die a happy death.

"The martial arts world? The martial arts world was destroyed by you people! "

Xu Qinghui was not angry at all. He moved a chair over and sat upright.

"Are you saying that Chu Yinan once lived in the martial arts world? But I don't understand. Back then, it was you guys who rebelled against us. How could there be no one who pitied those prefectures that were robbed? After being suppressed, each and every one of you are shouting louder than the last, and you are cheering louder than the rest. "

"You … Humph! If it wasn't for the fact that the dog-emperor didn't give us the proper status as martial artists and even set up some bullshit martial arts ban, would we have rebelled? "Don't forget, when we first fought the world, we martial artists did our best for the imperial government!"

"Did you forget that there are eight hundred thousand riders in Karakorum? Or had he forgotten that Wang Mingyang, the Sect Leader of Wu Dang Sect, had forced the Wu Kingdom's many thousands of buildings to the point where they couldn't advance an inch? Perhaps he felt that the number of heads under the Nine Swords of Mount Li was too few? Or could it be that during that final battle, the thirty-two direct descendants of the Missing Moon Restaurant, who were stationed in a prefectural city next to the final battlefield, were able to hold back the hundreds of thousands of soldiers for seven days, making them insufficiently valuable? "

"But what did you get in return? It's a Forbidden Martial Order from the imperial government! "

Da Niu's eyes were wide open as he began to sob blood.

"I know all of this. I also know that the Missing Moon Restaurant was so strong that they all died during those few years. Chu Wuyi of the Karakorum Sword League returned alive. The Mount Li Nine Swords had charged all the way to Jinling City. Seven people had died in battle, severely injuring two of them. The Mount Li lineage had completely fallen apart. The Wang Mingyang Wudang Mountain generation all died on the battlefield. "And your sect, the Xing Yi Sect, that previous Sect Leader died in battle in Liaoning Province, only five kilometers away from the sect …"

"But why do you all always subconsciously regard the contributions and sacrifices these seniors have made as a gift to the imperial government! Could it be that, being in the martial arts world, he had forgotten that he was a commoner of our Chu? Even if the people of the martial arts world were to die, they would die valiantly. Then, the Frost Blade Camp of the Xizi Lake, the hundred thousand Wind Cavalry of Liao Prefecture, and the army of Dan Yang who did not leave the camp, all of these have completely disappeared in history.

"Indeed, there was indeed something urgent about the martial arts ban. However, do you know if there was a lack of etiquette after you obtained your family members and seniors who died in wars for the imperial government?" "Did he not express any dissatisfaction with the imperial government?"

"Could it be that you all only remember that you are people of the martial arts world, and forget that before this, you were still people of the Chu!?" "In war, the ones who die the most are not you martial artists, but real soldiers. They don't have the strength of you, so they can't do it alone. They can't do it for thousands of years, but they die in the most ordinary way?"

Da Niu was stunned on the spot. Although Xu Qingzhi's tone was calm, it was as if he had slapped Da Niu hard.

Others might not know, but Da Niu remembered clearly that after the death of the Sect Leader, the elders wanted to stand up and join forces with the people of the martial world to build a system of martial arts that belonged to those of the martial arts world.

But why? Perhaps it was just as Xu Qingzhi had said. He had declared himself to be a person of the martial arts world for too long, and had even set a trap for him to forget that he was even more of a person of Chu.

"Indeed, Chu Huai has his own problems, but he... All of you have placed your hatred and conflict on him, but do you still remember who killed your Sect Leader and who killed your fellow disciples? "

"It's the plains' Tattoo, we won't forget!" "I admit that what you said does make some sense, but …"

Xu Qingzhi waved his hand, interrupting Da Niu's next words.

"Alright, let's talk about it later. You should watch this scene quietly after it ends. Perhaps, when the time comes, you might change your mind …"

As soon as he finished speaking, a smear of red came from the northwest horizon.

"Xu Qingzhi!" Let my disciple go, and I'll spare your life! "

At this point, the strong inner strength had already rushed towards him. Ying Cai struggled violently, wanting to remind him of this, but no matter how she opened her mouth, she could not utter a single word.

On the other side, after feeling the pressure, Da Niu finally understood the reason behind the restrictions. He bitterly smiled. In the end, he was nothing more than a bonus.

"Lin Xuan, it's time to start playing the song you discussed with me yesterday, 'Ten Faces Ambush'."

Xu Qing gave a strange smile. No matter how you looked at his smile, there seemed to be something strange about it … The meaning of "a lowly person gets what he wants" was inside. Xu Qing wanted to laugh when he thought of this idea of his. This scene, coupled with Lin Xuan's one song and all aspects of ambush, really suited the scenery. It was just too perfect, hahahaha.

Lin Xuan, who was in the room, had already waited for a long time. After hearing Xu Qinghzhi's voice, he immediately used his hand to caress his zither.

"Rumble …"

As the first zither sound rang out, the red robe fluttered over.

It was said in the outside world that the red robed Chen Jiao was the current number one female devil. Of course, now that it was sunny weather, she could only be considered to be number two. But when Xu Qingzhi looked at this petite, even somewhat cute, girl with a baby-faced face, no matter how he looked at it, he could not associate this person with this overweeningly evil woman.

"Eh, restrictions?"

Chen Jiao wasn't like Da Niu; her strength was much higher than Da Niu's. Thus, the temporary 'Immortal-Binding Ropes' was only able to reduce Chen Jiao's inner strength to the fourth or fifth grade. However, it was sufficient for Xu Qingzhi. Not to mention that he was able to save her, the Third Manager, who was similarly not controlled by the restrictions, was able to easily deal with the current Chen Jiao.

"Ke ke, little fellow, so this is your trump card that you dare to be so confident in?"

As the baby-faced woman spoke, her red robe couldn't cover her infuriating body, and her laughter caused the flowers around her to tremble.

Xu Qingzhi frowned. What was going on? Wasn't this Chen Jiao Mo insane? When he tried to sense her once again, the Chen Jiao before him was indeed only a third or fourth grade. Then where did her confidence come from?

Xu Qingzhi didn't waste any time on words. Although Chen Jiao's unperturbed attitude caused him to be slightly suspicious, he'd already done it to this point. He couldn't possibly miss out on his entire plan just because of a trace of doubt.

"Third steward, sorry to trouble you."

Xu Qingzhi wasn't the same young man who used to be in high spirits. Chen Jiao's current state was slightly strange, so he obviously wouldn't allow Chen Jiao to take advantage of him. Thus, the moment he attacked, Xu Qingzhi immediately sent out his strongest third steward, hoping to kill him in one blow.

Chu Ying's ten sides ambushing performance was in full swing. The strings of zither music were dense and rushed, giving people the feeling that they were in a dangerous place. It had to be said that even though Chu Yin didn't know how to use music, his zither skills were difficult to find a rival in this world.

Chen Jiao laughed inwardly when she heard the zither music that was obviously prepared for her. So this young master who was full of the vigor of the rivers and lakes in the outside world had such an evil and unknown taste.

As if the third housekeeper who was swiftly approaching didn't exist, Chen Jiao lightly smiled as she glanced at Xu Qingzhi and nodded to Ying Cai who was behind him. Her hands made a thought-provoking gesture as she placed two fingers before her eyes like scissors.

This gesture was a habit of the Sect Leader. Normally, it would only come out when the Sect Leader was very happy to win a victory in a stable manner. The disciples of the Sect Leader had all learned some strange movements and words from the Sect Leader.

"Hugging Qingfeng with his sleeves, an expert from the Confucian clan." "Coincidentally, I haven't really fought with you sour scholars yet, so I can be considered to have met one."

Chen Jiao's delicate hand was gently handed over. Her slender hand appeared petite under the wide sleeve of the red robe. It formed a sharp contrast with the palm strike from the third steward whose inner strength surged over. In a split-second, the two palms collided …

"Rumble …"

Chu Yin was shocked. The zither string had snapped!

Outside, the third steward collapsed to the ground, spewing out a mouthful of blood!

"You … "This is not inner strength. What is this?!"
