“Death penalty!”
“Absolute death penalty!”
“Death penalty +65535!”
“What the hell is fourth aunt?”
“How dare you spread the rumor that han Shang is infatuated with you in the scenario world?”!!
“Burn this scum to death!”
“Feng bujue must die!”
“Xu Huai Shang’s official fan club has announced that we have already taken Feng bujue’s head!”
“Kongtong’s personal guards, go! I will be executed immediately!”
As the semi-finals were broadcast in different time slots, all the audience members who were watching S2 were watching the same match.
And their feelings when they saw this scene … Were basically reflected in the comments above.
Of course, most of them were just complaining. Everyone also understood that eunuch Cao’s conclusion must have been made after being duped in a certain script.
No one would take a misunderstanding in the game seriously.
But … Even so, Feng bujue’s actions were unforgivable. Goddess Xu’s fans all agreed that it was better to let him die.
…………
After he finished talking about the outside, his eyes returned to the script.
After an awkward silence, Cao Xin spoke again,””By the way, Master Feng … I do have something to ask you …” He looked at brother Jue and asked noncommittally,”back then, at the summit of the Forbidden City, you and that lady Xu both turned into white light and disappeared … Which spell did you use?”
“Oh … That …” Feng bujue was very experienced when it came to answering such questions.”Eunuch Cao has already entered the path of martial arts. Can’t you tell?”
His words were ambiguous, as if he had said something, but it was equivalent to throwing the question back.
Hearing this, Cao Qin smiled.”Ah … Master Feng, you’re still the same … Alright, if you don’t want to say it, then don’t say it. I won’t force you.”
Compared to the last time he saw brother Jue, Cao Xin’s personality had clearly changed.
More than ten years ago, there was still a bit of hostility in him. It could be seen from his attitude towards the three martial arts swordsmen … Although he was not fond of killing, he did not hate killing. He could be merciful, but he couldn’t be called merciful. He was indifferent to fame and fortune, but he was still persistent in respect.
However, more than ten years had passed …
Cao Xin’s appearance and body had returned to the appearance of a man in his forties. He looked even younger than he had been in Chang Lin town.
And in his words and actions … There was always a hint of indifference, a hint of carefreeness, and a hint of frivolity that did not match his age.
The matters of the martial world, martial arts, and the matters between people … He listened and asked, but he no longer cared or persisted.
With Cao Xin’s current cultivation base, he was more focused on thinking about how he should view the people of the world. As for how the people of the world viewed him, he could just laugh it off.
“This … Is good.” “Speaking of which … I have something that I would like to ask you, eunuch Liu …” He glanced at the stone pool.”As the saying goes … It’s hard to drink without wine. Why is eunuch Cao standing by the stone pool drinking wine and gazing at the spring in the middle of the night?”
Brother Jue did not ask why Cao Xin would appear in burial heart Valley because he could easily guess that Wufu had entered the valley with the Army from the Imperial court. And the thing that brother Jue could not figure out was the question before him …
“Oh … About that …” Cao Xin chuckled.”Two hours ago, I stopped here and suddenly comprehended a new set of martial arts. I’m currently perfecting it.”
“Ha?” When Xiao Tan heard that, he asked with curiosity,”you can perfect a martial art by standing and drinking?”
“Hahaha …” When Cao Xin heard this, he laughed out loud.”Young man, then what do you think … I should do? Get into position by the stone pool and practice your fist and foot techniques?”
“Hmm …” Xiao Tan wanted to answer “yes,” but he had a feeling that the man was not asking a question.
“Hehe … I’m sorry to have embarrassed myself in front of eunuch Cao.” Feng bujue quickly interjected,”this disciple of mine has the worst potential among all the dormitory guests. Back then, I thought he was a smart kid when I saw his good looks, but I only realized that he was a dumbass when I accepted him as my disciple. You see … You’ve been with me for decades … But your martial arts realm is still very shallow. ”
“Oh …” Cao Xin nodded.”It’s not easy for you, Master Feng.”
The conversation between the two of them was like two adults discussing a little kid, which was very annoying. Thankfully, Xiao Tan had a good temper, or perhaps he was born with a good heart, so he did not take those words to heart.
“By the way …” After chatting for a while, Feng bujue felt that the time was right, so he led the conversation to the plot.”If I’m not wrong, eunuch Cao’s purpose in coming to heart burial Valley … Is to help the Emperor obtain the ‘art of immortality’?”
“Hmph … Master Feng, you’re really well-informed.” Cao Xin’s response meant that he agreed with brother Jue’s statement.
“Eunuch Cao, you must be joking …” Feng bujue chuckled.”…Isn’t that an open secret?”
This question was also a test.
“Ha … That’s true.” “Yes,” Cao Xin continued.”There are rumors in the pugilistic world that the ‘King of Hell’ of the burial heart Valley has the ‘art of longevity’. And the news of the emperor’s critical illness … Could not be hidden. At this time, the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, the Deputy of the great governor’s office, and I have all rushed here, so their purpose is obvious. ”
“Hmm …” Two seconds later, brother Jue nodded and followed the man’s lead.”Those people probably only acted after they heard about this …”
“Sigh … Humans just have this problem.” Cao Xin shook his head and sighed.”The legend of the King of Hell has been circulating in the pugilistic world for decades. Many people know about it, but very few believe it. As for those who dare to come here to investigate … There are only a handful of them.” He paused for a few seconds and took another sip of wine.”But now, with the Emperor’s secret edict and the Imperial court’s troops moving, these people can’t sit still … Suddenly, they all believe it and come.” He smiled.”But in reality? Hmph … The Emperor himself only believed a little in the ‘art of longevity’. To put it bluntly, he also knew that his death was imminent and wanted to make a Hail Mary effort, so he issued that secret edict. ”
“Eunuch Cao …” When Feng bujue heard this, he laughed mockingly.”That’s an outrageous statement, and your entire family will be executed!”
“Ha!” Cao Xin waved his sleeves.”Do I still care about that?” He looked up at the sky.”If it wasn’t to repay the previous Emperor’s appreciation and kindness, I would have left the court a long time ago. Who in the world … Can stop me?” He took another gulp of strong wine.”As for the execution of nine generations … I’m a eunuch, and I was already a loner when I entered the palace at a young age. It’s impossible for me to have any descendants after I entered the palace. If you want to kill someone, then go and kill those who acknowledge me as their Godfather and godgrandfather. Most of them are also treacherous people who curry favor with the rich and powerful, one less is one less. ”
“Then …” When Feng bujue heard this, he could more or less understand Cao Xin’s stance. He then asked,”eunuch Cao, what are your thoughts and plans regarding the current situation in the valley?”
“Scheme? Ha … What do I have to plan?” “If I had a plan, would I come here alone to drink and enjoy the spring?” Cao Xin asked.
“Alliance master Yuan and that group of martial artists are here to kill and steal techniques …” Hua Jian reminded,”eunuch Liu, aren’t you afraid that they’ll kill all the Imperial court’s soldiers?”
When Cao Qin heard this, he looked at Hua Jian and then revealed a meaningful smile.””Young lady … You seem to have underestimated a person.”
“Oh?” “Who?” Hua Jian asked.
Cao Xin’s answer was very unexpected.””Yuan Kuang.”
“Alliance master Yuan?” Hua Jian asked again. She had just learned the martial arts Alliance master’s full name.
“Yes, I am.” Cao Xin replied.
“It sounds like … Eunuch Cao, you know something?” Feng bujue, on the other hand, picked up more information from the man’s words.
“Yeah … I know a lot.” Cao Xin replied.
“Eunuch Liu, why don’t you let us know?” Feng bujue said with a smile.
“Mm …” Cao Qin muttered.”It’s too boring to just say it like that …” After speaking, he walked down from the stone pool.”Everyone, follow me … I’ll bring you to see a good show.”
…………
At the same time, in another part of the burial heart Valley.
At this moment, Alliance master Yuan had already led his fellow martial arts practitioners along the main road for a long time.
Along the way, they encountered more than ten “little ghosts” blocking their way. Even though there was a God like Yuan Kuang keeping watch, casualties were still inevitable.
After all, there were hundreds of them, and the terrain of burial heart Valley was extremely complicated. There were mountains, rocks, forests, valleys, and water. There was also a light mist covering the valley. It was extremely easy for the little ghosts in the valley to set up an ambush.
Moreover, the residents of burial heart Valley were basically all “strong hands.” Many of them were first-class figures in the martial world before they entered the valley, and their martial arts skills had improved even more after they entered the valley. A guy like song Wuji was basically a nobody in the valley, and there were a lot of people who were more powerful than him.
To be repeatedly ambushed by such a group of people … It was absolutely impossible not to have a few people die.
“Alliance master … The total number of casualties from each sect … Has already exceeded a hundred … If this continues, I’m afraid …” The person who spoke at this moment was called Ji Neng. He was the descendant of the tower master of the eight-sided tower, Ji Tong, and was also the current tower master of the eight-sided tower. His “eight directions supremacy heart technique” was not as good as his ancestors ‘previous tower Masters, but in terms of martial arts, he could still be regarded as the best among the surrounding sect leader-level Masters.
This is a good opportunity for me to explain my world view, so I’ll give you a simple introduction …
After the ‘Cang Ling sword duel’, the structure of the martial arts world in this world had changed considerably. The original ranking of “one Manor, two floors, three sects, four schools” had been completely overturned.
After that incident, the ye residence suffered a great blow and never recovered. At least in the last few decades, there was no one in the house of ye who could compete with the master of the house, Ye Cheng. Even those who had reached the level of the “six flowery blades” could not be picked.
As a result, thousand dawn Spire and octagonal spire rose to the top and became the strongest two heroes in the martial arts world.
As for the ‘three sects and four schools’, it could basically be summarized as ‘declining in the midst of inheritance, and passing down in decline’. Just as the blind man who had once guided Yuan Kuang said … There were many people who could teach but could not learn, and there were also some who could learn but could not. The model of seniority in the big sects was deeply rooted, and there was no lack of infighting between peers … This resulted in the fact that the sect leader of the past generations was usually not the person with the highest talent or martial arts in the sect. Of course, it didn’t mean that the most talented person was suitable to be the sect leader … But the matter of passing down martial arts was indeed about this. Unless there was a peerless genius in a certain generation who could revive the sect … Otherwise, if it was passed down like this, martial arts would definitely be worse for each generation.
In short, this situation had been maintained for more than twenty years …
It was not until 15 years ago that Yuan Kuang, who had practiced the five years ‘fate reading mysterious technique, made a name for himself in the pugilistic world. At that point, the situation in the pugilistic world began to change again …
Another five years passed, and Yuan han had become a peerless hero who stood above all the other sects. In terms of character, he was not picky; When fighting against the evil path, he could also fight against a thousand troops by himself. Most importantly … His martial arts at that time were already invincible (the “world” here was naturally only limited to the Jianghu and not the Imperial court).
As a result, Yuan han naturally became the chief of the martial arts world …
That was the general change of the scenario in the past few decades.
“Tower Lord Ji …” Yuan han heard Ji Neng’s words and replied in a low voice,”could it be that you’re afraid of the battle?”
“No, no, no… Where did you get that from …” Ji Neng denied it, but he was very anxious in his heart. “It’s just that … I think that this operation seems a little inappropriate …” The disciples of the octagonal pavilion had already suffered a considerable number of casualties because they had rushed to the front.
“Tower Lord Ji’s words are extremely true, we also think so.” The next second, a few sect leaders immediately gathered around Ji Neng and echoed.
It seemed like RUO Yu’s earlier deduction was spot on. When the situation changed, these guys would start to attack each other for their own benefit.
“In my humble opinion, we should choose a few people with appropriate martial arts skills from the heroes of each road … And then spread them out to act as Scouts in front of us to test the enemy’s situation.”
“That’s right. This way, we won’t be blindly attacked. ”
“That’s right, Alliance master Yuan, the current situation where the enemy is in the dark while we’re out in the open …”
“Alright, there’s no need to say anymore.” How could Yuan Kuang not understand what they meant? he was no longer the third-rate figure he was twenty years ago. His shrewdness and shrewdness were much deeper than those around him.”Since all the sect leaders have the same intention, then let’s do it this way.”
After Yuan Kuang said that, he thought for a moment and prepared to turn around and pass on the message.
Unexpectedly, at this moment …
“Hahahaha … A bunch of snakes and rats that can’t be driven away. Now, they even want to fight among themselves. What a joke!”
A high-pitched voice suddenly rang out, using internal force to transmit sound, mocking these hundreds of martial arts heroes.
In addition to the literal meaning, his words also conveyed two messages: First, I’m not here to ambush you, I’m here to fight you head-on. Secondly, Yuan Kuang, I can even hear the conversation between you and the few people around you. My power … You should think about it yourself.
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw …
The light mist that was shrouding everyone’s heads actually surged into the air rapidly, as if it was being sucked up by an invisible force.
In an instant, the field of vision of the Jianghu people widened several times. They soon discovered that they were standing in a dangerous Gorge surrounded by mountains on three sides.
“Hmph … There’s a way to heaven, but you chose to go to hell.” After a few breaths, a second voice spoke with internal energy,”since you’ve come to this ‘Soul Break Gorge’, then all of you should stay!”
Along with this ‘death announcement’, a large number of people appeared on the mountain road and between the stone ridges on three sides … There were more than 100 people.
These people stood in the shadows of the high ground, looking at the crowd in the gorge from a distance, like a group of evil ghosts staring at their prey, ready to make a move …
“There are a lot of them this time …” Yuan Han’s expression did not change.”… It’s good that they came.”
As he said that, his right hand … Moved.
Then, a soft sword was pulled out from the belt around his waist and dropped from his hand.
“I’d like to see …”With a cold gaze and a murderous tone, Yuan Kuang shouted to the group of ghost minions at the top,” in this ‘Soul Break Gorge’ tonight, is it a human … Or a ghost …”
