Chapter 105: Before You Arrived, Others Had Already Started a Massacre [Seeking Monthly Votes]

~36 min read 7,048 words

The three poison darts fired hit Quan Guanqing's Qihai, Shimen, and Guanyuan acupoints. Damage to these three spots meant his dantian was completely crippled.

More than the pain, what terrified Quan Guanqing was that his internal energy was draining away rapidly.

"Ah! He destroyed my martial arts!"

Quan Guanqing wailed in agony, glaring at Chu Yang with venomous hatred.

The four elders—Chen, Wu, Song, and Xi—changed expressions upon hearing this, glaring at Chu Yang. They felt that even if Quan Guanqing had been disrespectful, it didn't warrant crippling the martial arts he had spent decades cultivating.

Huang Rong was also startled and quickly looked back at Chu Yang.

"Elder Quan was in the wrong first, but a lesson would have sufficed. Why cripple the martial arts he spent decades cultivating? To act with such ruthlessness—do you not hold the Beggar Sect in your eyes?"

Elder Xi clenched his fists, his anger burning.

"It's a pity, Elder Quan had just been promoted from rudder master to elder..."

Elder Chen sighed, turned to look at Quan Guanqing, and shook his head helplessly.

Quan Guanqing had helped Kang Min frame Qiao Feng and had taken some crooked paths afterward to secure an elder title. He had been riding high recently, never expecting to run into a star of calamity like Chu Yang.

"You people are quite interesting. He shot poison darts at me, and I returned them. It was his own doing, yet you blame me."

"To act so unreasonably while calling yourselves heroes—this 'Hero Assembly' is truly a 'Bear Assembly' in name."

Chu Yang said with a mocking smile, "But you were right about one thing: a Beggar Sect without Qiao Feng is indeed not something I hold in my eyes."

As soon as these words were spoken, the martial artists watching the spectacle were in an uproar!

That was the number one sect in the martial world!

To be insulted like this!

The four elders of the Beggar Sect were trembling with rage, pointing at Chu Yang, unable to speak for a long time.

"Little Chu, did I cause you trouble?"

Huang Rong retreated to Chu Yang's side, feeling uneasy. She knew Chu Yang always hated troublesome matters.

"You're overthinking it. Where I'm concerned, the threshold for trouble isn't that low. At best, they are just trash on the side of the road."

Chu Yang's voice wasn't loud, but anyone without hearing impairment could hear him clearly.

The crowd whispered among themselves; Chu Yang's behavior was essentially defecating on the head of the Beggar Sect.

Who could endure this?

If they endured this, the Beggar Sect would have no face left to survive in the future! The hot-tempered Elder Xi stepped forward, staring intensely at Chu Yang, while the surrounding onlookers quickly retreated, fearing they would be implicated.

"Elder Xi is an expert in external martial arts for our sect, skilled in using steel staves, specifically designed to counter hidden weapons. If you beg for mercy now, Elder Xi might spare your life."

The upright Elder Wu, before Elder Xi attacked, specifically reminded Chu Yang. He had seen the other party use a clever technique to "return" Quan Guanqing's hidden weapons, so he was certain the other party was an expert in unorthodox arts.

Chu Yang saw that he was a decent person and nodded with a smile: "In consideration of your reminder, I will not take his life."

"Little thief, you have guts!"

Elder Xi gripped his steel stave tightly, leaped out, drew a silver arc in the air, and smashed it toward Chu Yang's face. Because he used too much force, his arms were trembling slightly.

Since he was an external martial arts expert, his strength was extraordinary. A full-force strike would be enough to smash someone's skull to pieces.

Some onlookers with weak stomachs couldn't bear to watch the scene and silently turned their heads away.

Chu Yang remained calm, exuding strong confidence in every movement. He simply shifted his body slightly, dodging Elder Xi's attack at the critical moment.

Elder Xi was short and stocky, not agile. When he turned his back to Chu Yang, he was kicked squarely in the lower back.

And so, before everyone's eyes, Elder Xi fell face-first into the dirt.

The scene suddenly became quiet, and the onlookers burst into laughter! Elder Xi scrambled to his feet. The kick hadn't caused much damage, but the humiliation was immense. As a famous expert in the martial world, he had lost a bit of face.

Huang Rong clapped and cheered from the side, "Eating dirt is a perfect match for your identity as a Beggar Sect disciple. Why don't you hurry up and thank my Little Chu?"

Mu Nianci hurriedly covered her mouth.

Hearing this, the veins on Elder Xi's temples bulged, his face turned red, and he quickly entered a "superheated" state.

Even without Observation Haki or the Rinnegan, it would have been easy for Chu Yang to dodge Elder Xi's attacks; the difference in their speed was vast.

Elder Xi continued to swing his steel stave to attack. The originally powerful moves appeared increasingly clumsy against the backdrop of Chu Yang's elegant movements.

After a few exchanges, Wu Changfeng already knew Elder Xi was no match for Chu Yang and began to stir on the sidelines.

Gang-fighting had always been an excellent tradition of the Beggar Sect. If they could use ten people to fight one, they would never use nine. Everyone in the martial world knew this, and the Beggar Sect disciples felt no shame about it.

After waiting for a long time without seeing Elder Xi force out a single flaw in the opponent, Wu Changfeng stopped waiting and brought out his ghost-head saber.

Wu Changfeng lived up to his name; his movements were like the wind, and his saber technique was exquisite. Having sparred with Elder Xi for many years, their coordination in battle complemented each other perfectly, just enough to compensate for the clumsiness of the other's moves.

It was just that...

Adding the two together didn't seem to change the battle situation much; they were still being toyed with and suppressed by Chu Yang.

"Elder Chen, Elder Song, if you two don't act now, the Beggar Sect will truly lose all face today!"

Quan Guanqing wailed from the ground. Hearing this, Elders Chen and Song no longer stood on ceremony and joined the fight with their weapons.

The four elders of the Beggar Sect were considered experts in the martial world. To be able to fight all four at once and occupy an absolute advantage was the mark of a top-tier expert.

The problem was that among the many martial artists watching, no one knew who the young scholar fighting the four elders was. They had never heard of such a person in the martial world; his attire didn't look like that of a foreigner, and he looked so young.

For a time, the onlookers were more interested in Chu Yang's identity than the fight itself.

Mu Nianci watched for a while and whispered in Huang Rong's ear: "Brother Chu could have defeated them long ago. Why hasn't he used his full strength?"

Huang Rong smiled lightly: "He usually doesn't want to spar with us using the martial arts from the Nine Yin Manual for fear of hurting us. Now that he has these sandbags to practice on, of course, he wants to use them sparingly."

"Oh~" Mu Nianci suddenly realized and understood that Chu Yang was using Wu Changfeng and the others to verify the martial arts in the Nine Yin Manual. She couldn't help but feel pity for the few of them.

The ghostly figure kept moving among the four. After a long time, Wu Changfeng and the others finally understood Chu Yang's intention.

An intense sense of humiliation welled up in their hearts.

At this time, the Hero Assembly at Juluxian Manor was about to begin, and more and more martial arts heroes who had been invited had arrived.

However, these people were all watching Chu Yang's battle with the four Beggar Sect elders from the outside, and the vast Juluxian Manor was deserted, with no one visiting.

The You brothers in the main hall hadn't seen anyone for a long time, and they couldn't help but look at each other.

"Big brother, could it be that we remembered the date wrong?"

"Nonsense! You might remember the date wrong, but could the hundreds of people in this manor all remember it wrong?"

After speaking, the two brothers fell silent. If they hadn't remembered the date wrong, it meant no one had come to attend the Hero Assembly they had organized.

How could the You brothers bear this?

"Masters, something is happening outside the manor!"

The butler ran in from outside the main hall in a panic.

You Ji looked displeased. It was one thing that no one came to the assembly, but how could someone be causing trouble within the vicinity of Juluxian Manor?

Were they really old, and was their reputation gone? "Who is causing trouble outside the manor?"

"At first, the four elders of the Beggar Sect—Chen, Wu, Song, and Xi—clashed with a young scholar. I don't know the specific reason, but I heard that the newly promoted Elder Quan was disrespectful in his speech and had his martial arts crippled by the scholar."

"Hiss~ To cripple someone's martial arts just because of a verbal conflict—this scholar's actions are too overbearing; he doesn't look like a righteous person."

"That's what I thought too."

"However, the four elders are long-established experts. They shouldn't be joining forces to deal with a junior, right? Did you get it wrong?"

"Back to the master, I didn't get it wrong. The four elders didn't defeat the scholar even when joining forces, and like Elder Quan, they had their martial arts crippled. Later, Masters Xuannan and Xuji from Shaolin passed by. Seeing the scholar's overbearing behavior, they came forward to reason, and the two also started fighting..."

"Wait! What did you just say happened to the four elders?"

You Ji shuddered suddenly.

The butler smiled bitterly: "Back to the master, of the four elders—Chen, Wu, Song, and Xi—three were seriously injured and lost their martial arts. Only Elder Wu Changfeng is in slightly better condition."

The You brothers gasped in unison: "Qiao Feng is here?"

The butler shook his head repeatedly.

You Ju said in a deep voice: "What a powerful expert! Big brother, those four elders are no easy targets, let alone the four of them joining forces, yet he crippled three of them."

You Ji nodded, unable to help but exclaim: "How overbearing!"

Afterward, he asked again: "You just said Master Xuannan also fought the scholar? What was the result?"

The butler replied with a terrified expression: "The two masters were no match. After being captured by the scholar, he used his Zen staff to knock on their heads, just like a big monk knocking on a wooden fish in a temple. It was a complete loss of face."

"Later, Tan Gong, Tan Po, and Zhao Qiansun arrived, and only then did they help the masters escape."

You Ji broke into a cold sweat listening to this and asked: "The two masters have martial arts superior to the four elders, plus the three seniors Tan Gong, Tan Po, and Zhao Qiansun. They should have been enough to take him down."

The butler replied with a crying face: "The two masters and the three seniors all had their martial arts crippled by the scholar!"

Crippled martial arts again! Where did this demonic path person come from to be so rampant? The You brothers felt their hands and feet go cold, and their whole bodies trembled.

None of the martial arts experts they had invited to the assembly had stepped through the gates of Juluxian Manor; they had all been crippled outside the manor. If this got out, they would become the laughingstock of the martial world for decades!

You Ju was stunned for a moment, then suddenly asked as if grabbing a straw: "What about Hero Dan and his son?"

The butler shook his head and said: "Hero Dan Zheng didn't fight the scholar..."

Dan Zheng, known as the "Iron-Faced Judge" in the martial world, was the main person who exposed Qiao Feng's Khitan identity at Xingzilin last time.

His five sons were also known as the Five Tigers of the Dan Family.

You Ju breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, at least the Dan family is fine."

"Something happened!" The butler explained with a crying voice: "Although Hero Dan didn't fight the scholar, Hero Dan's sons fought with the little girl beside the scholar and also had their martial arts crippled."

"Hero Dan was so grief-stricken that he vomited blood and fainted."

You Ji closed his eyes, wanting to cry but having no tears. That's great, forget about holding a Hero Assembly; all the heroes have been crippled.

Seeing the butler stammering, as if he had more to say, You Ju's heart sank, and he roared: "If you have something to say, say it! At this point, what else is there to be afraid of?!"

The butler whispered tremblingly: "When Tan Gong and Tan Po were fighting the scholar, their hidden weapons accidentally hit Doctor Xue, who was watching from the side..."

You Ji opened his eyes suddenly and glared: "What happened to Doctor Xue?!"

The butler didn't dare to breathe and continued to whisper: "Doctor Xue died on the spot..."

You Ji's face turned ashen. The reason this Hero Assembly could be held, besides the influence of the You brothers, relied more on the reputation of Xue Muhua, the "Enemy of Yama."

As the saying goes, if you drift in the martial world, how can you not get stabbed? No matter what level of expert you are, if you suffer a major injury, you have to find Doctor Xue to save your life.

But now? Sigh~~~ The Enemy of Yama has met the real Yama.

Juluxian Manor must be responsible for Xue Muhua's death.

In the future, the You brothers would become the target of public criticism from many martial artists. Those people wouldn't care about right or wrong; they just needed a target to vent their anger.

Thinking of this, You Ji felt numb in his hands and feet, his whole body cold, and blood surged up.

Pfft! After vomiting a large mouthful of blood, You Ji's eyes went dark, and he fainted on the spot.

"Big brother!!!"

You Ju supported the unconscious You Ji with grief.

Half an hour later.

Qiao Feng brought A'Zhu, whom he had accidentally injured at Shaoshi Mountain, to Juluxian Manor. He came here to find Doctor Xue to save A'Zhu's life.

Qiao Feng knew that a Hero Assembly was being held here, the purpose of which was to deal with him, but in order to save A'Zhu, he couldn't care about anything else and had to walk into the tiger's den.

Carrying A'Zhu, Qiao Feng went up to Juluxian Manor.

The heated Hero Assembly ended in a bleak finish, and the fainting of the manor master cast a shadow over the entire Juluxian Manor.

You Ju heard the servants' discussions and could only pretend not to know with a pale face.

At this moment, a heroic voice rang out.

"Qiao Feng comes to pay a visit to the manor!"

You Ju was shocked, thinking why the disaster star chose this time to visit!

It's over! It's over! Juluxian Manor today is afraid it won't have a moment of peace!

Afterward, a burly man with a square face, thick eyebrows, and big eyes walked slowly from the shadow wall, holding a woman with weak breath in his arms.

The momentum of the man's stride was extremely terrifying. Besides Qiao Feng, who else could it be? You Ju sat on the ground in despair, muttering: "Kill me or carve me up, do as you please. Blame my Juluxian Manor for its bad luck; in one day, we have encountered such disasters."

"Didn't they say heroes were gathered to take my head? Why are you the only one here? Where are the other heroes?"

Qiao Feng frowned, suddenly feeling a sense of being insulted. Could it be that the You brothers thought they could solve him alone?

You Ju cried in a breakdown: "It's over! It's all over! Where are the heroes? Before you arrived, others had already started a massacre!"

Qiao Feng: "..."

Started a massacre? Who is he talking about?

Qiao Feng was confused. This Hero Assembly was convened to deal with him; how could a Cheng Yaojin appear out of nowhere?

"Brother Qiao, is Doctor Xue not here?"

A'Zhu, lying in Qiao Feng's arms, shouted weakly.

Qiao Feng hurriedly questioned You Ju: "Where is Doctor Xue? Qiao Feng has something to ask! I know he contributed a lot to this Hero Assembly, so he should be a guest at your Juluxian Manor."

Hearing Qiao Feng mention Xue Muhua, You Ju was as sad as if his own mother had died, crying until he was out of breath.

"Did Doctor Xue meet with an accident?"

Qiao Feng was shocked and angry.

If Xue Muhua had an accident, then A'Zhu was doomed!

Who else in the world could save a dying person whose internal organs were all damaged? You Ju's eyes were lifeless until Qiao Feng put down A'Zhu and shook his arms, and he nodded subconsciously.

Qiao Feng's body trembled suddenly, not daring to turn his head to look at A'Zhu, fearing to see a look of despair on her face.

A'Zhu took the initiative to reach out and pull his sleeve: "Brother Qiao, you don't have to worry about me; these are all destined."

Qiao Feng clenched his fists: "We have been seeking medical advice all the way, and it was not easy to find a glimmer of hope. Heaven is too heartless."

A'Zhu didn't show a sad expression but smiled instead: "Heaven is not heartless at all; otherwise, he wouldn't have let you accompany me."

Hearing this, Qiao Feng felt comforted, but his heart felt even more uncomfortable.

"Brother Qiao, I am very curious, who destroyed the Hero Assembly at Juluxian Manor, and how does that person's martial arts compare to yours..."

A'Zhu silently changed the subject.

Qiao Feng thought silently, then looked at You Ju and frowned: "Please tell me the ins and outs of the matter, Manor Master You."

Destroying the Hero Assembly could be considered solving a problem for him, but Xue Muhua's death made their current situation even worse.

Qiao Feng really wanted to know who did it.

At this time, You Ju's emotions finally stabilized a bit. Looking at the weak A'Zhu, he suddenly had an idea.

"The one who destroyed the Hero Assembly was a scholar whose goal was Doctor Xue, coming specifically to intercept and kill Doctor Xue."

"Many martial arts heroes were crippled by him to protect Doctor Xue, and in the end, they still couldn't save Doctor Xue's life."

You Ju added oil and vinegar to blame Xue Muhua's death on Chu Yang, making it sound like Chu Yang did it intentionally, making Qiao Feng think the other party was deliberately targeting him.

Because A'Zhu was deficient in blood and energy, her mind was weak. Although she felt there were loopholes in You Ju's words, she didn't have the strength to think more, and she could barely keep her eyes open.

Qiao Feng thought again and again, feeling that the mysterious scholar in You Ju's mouth might be related to the mysterious person who killed his parents and teachers.

The goals of the two seemed to be people around him.

Thinking of this, Qiao Feng was furious and hurriedly asked You Ju about the scholar's information.

You Ju hadn't seen Chu Yang with his own eyes and could only call the old butler who had witnessed everything.

The old butler spoke tremblingly about the appearance of the three people, and Qiao Feng remained silent after listening.

Since the appearance of the three people was very outstanding, such a combination should be particularly eye-catching and not difficult to find.

Qiao Feng picked up A'Zhu and left decisively.

The old butler, who had escaped death, almost wet his pants, and suddenly heard the second manor master laughing loudly, which made him shudder.

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits. I am truly Zhuge reborn!"

The old butler looked at the smug second manor master, his pants already wet, his heart feeling miserable.

If those two stars of calamity didn't fight, it would be their Juluxian Manor that suffered.

Many onlookers who had watched the battle were still on the street. Qiao Feng asked them one by one and soon knew the direction Chu Yang and the others had left. A'Zhu, whose physical condition was extremely poor, was still trying to persuade Qiao Feng not to go in her muddled state.

The other party was clearly an expert, and Qiao Feng, carrying her as a burden, had already fallen into a disadvantage.

Unfortunately, Qiao Feng couldn't listen.

At the same time, Chu Yang and the others returned to the inn to take the carriage and prepared to continue on their way.

Originally, they just wanted to watch the fun, but they didn't expect to become the fun themselves.

"It's a pity that I couldn't watch Qiao Gangzhu fight with a sound system..."

Chu Yang pulled the reins, led the little red horse to the carriage, and sighed with regret.

"What is a sound system?"

Huang Rong blinked her eyes.

"Uh, a musical instrument..."

Chu Yang didn't know how to explain it and muddled through it in a few words.

"Brother Chu, that scene just now was terrifying, and you were still thinking about playing music to add to the fun..."

Mu Nianci complained: "Did we offend too many people? Especially Shaolin Temple, which is said to be the largest sect in the Northern Song martial world."

Huang Rong stroked the little red horse's mane and hummed indifferently: "What are you afraid of? We aren't staying here long anyway. Let's just go. Once we go to Mongolia, who cares about them? If they aren't convinced, let them come after us, and see if I don't beat them until they lose their teeth."

Mu Nianci sighed.

"Alright, stop thinking about it. Get in the carriage quickly. After passing the Northern Song, we have to pass the Ming Empire to reach Mongolia. The journey is long, so let's get on the road early."

Chu Yang organized the carriage reins and urged the two girls to get in the carriage. They had been shopping in the city for most of the day and were just tired.

Huang Rong walked into the carriage yawning, and Mu Nianci subconsciously wanted to take the reins from Chu Yang, but was refused by Chu Yang with a wave of his hand.

"Go in. You can drive tomorrow."

Mu Nianci nodded obediently. She was indeed tired. She had been too nervous while watching the battle, and now that she had relaxed, the fatigue surged like a tide.

The little red horse was very human-like. After the two girls entered the carriage, it didn't wait for Chu Yang to urge it, but pulled the carriage slowly out of the inn. Chu Yang sat sideways on the carriage shaft, closing his eyes to rest.

In today's battle, he used the general outline of martial arts in the Nine Yin Manual to dismantle the flaws of various sects' martial arts, and the effect was unexpectedly good.

Not only could he find flaws, but he could even reverse-engineer the complete routines of martial arts. Coupled with the Rinnegan's insight into the operation of internal energy, all the martial arts in the world were like test papers that had already been answered in his eyes.

"Just fighting with people allows me to learn the corresponding martial arts. This isn't stealing; it's clearly robbery..."

Chu Yang smiled happily, focusing on benefiting himself at the expense of others.

Master Xuannan of Shaolin was skilled in the Diamond Palm and Diamond Finger, Master Xuji was skilled in the Tianzhu Buddha Finger and the One-Pat-Two-Scatter Palm.

These fist and foot skills all became Chu Yang's spoils. Besides these four, Chu Yang didn't care for the martial arts of others and was uninterested.

"That guy from Demon Slayer asked me to find top-tier sword techniques. It doesn't seem very difficult now. I just need to find some sword experts to fight."

"Most sword experts are concentrated in 'The Smiling, Proud Wanderer,' and its background is the Ming Empire. I guess there will be clues when I get there."

"As for the Northern Song... it seems that besides the Six Meridian Divine Sword, nothing else has reference value."

While thinking, a loud shout suddenly came to Chu Yang's ears, like a thunderclap on flat ground.

"Thief, don't run!"

A burly man fell in front of the carriage. His eyebrows and eyes were weathered, his gaze sharp, and he had great momentum.

Chu Yang, sitting on the carriage shaft, dug his slightly numb ears.

Good guy! I thought someone set off a firecracker by my ear? This person has a really loud voice.

Chu Yang's first impression of Qiao Feng was not very good; he was impolite and liked to shout randomly.

"Do you think, looking at us from the outside, who looks more like a thief?"

Chu Yang pointed to his own clean and tidy clothes, and then pointed to Qiao Feng's beggar outfit.

Qiao Feng looked down at his tattered clothes, and for a moment, he couldn't find words to refute.

"This tattered brother, please move aside. Your current behavior is not begging, but highway robbery, and you will go to jail."

Chu Yang waved his hand to signal Qiao Feng to move.

Qiao Feng said in a deep voice: "Causing trouble at Juluxian Manor and killing Doctor Xue? What is your intention in doing all this?"

Chu Yang asked back in confusion: "What does it have to do with you?"

Qiao Feng was choked by the words, then roared: "Did you know that I was looking for Doctor Xue to save my life, so you deliberately killed him? Does the death of my parents and teachers have anything to do with you?"

Chu Yang was even more confused and looked at him sincerely: "Do you have a problem?"

Qiao Feng was furious, leaped up, performed a palm technique in the air, and the thick internal energy instantly turned into a golden flying dragon, rushing toward Chu Yang.

The dragon's roar was loud! "Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms..."

Chu Yang's eyes lit up, and he immediately understood the identity of the burly man. He stood up and pushed out a palm as well.

A golden palm appeared in front of Chu Yang, the lines between the palms clearly visible and lifelike. It was the Diamond Palm he had just stolen from Master Xuannan of Shaolin.

The golden palm slammed into the flying dragon, and the fierce palm force shattered the flying dragon directly, while the golden palm also became shattered and continued to fly toward Qiao Feng.

Qiao Feng pushed out his palms again, the air waves surged around him, and the violent palm force shattered the golden giant palm.

Just a simple probe made Qiao Feng feel horrified.

"That move just now looked like Shaolin's Diamond Palm... but why does it have such great power?"

Qiao Feng looked solemn. The Diamond Palm was powerful, but it was absolutely impossible for it to be more fierce than the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. The only explanation was that the user's strength was too strong.

"You are not a Shaolin disciple, why do you know one of the seventy-two Shaolin stunts?"

Qiao Feng accumulated strength in his palms, ready to deal with Chu Yang's attack at any time.

"The two bald donkeys at Juluxian Manor used this move against me before. I thought it was interesting, so I learned some. It's quite easy to use."

Chu Yang jumped off the carriage and walked toward Qiao Feng step by step. Since he met Qiao Gangzhu, he was determined to steal his wool today.

He had already dismantled that move in his mind, and he still needed the Rinnegan to record the route of internal energy operation.

Qiao Gangzhu didn't talk nonsense and directly attacked to send warmth to Chu Yang, one move after another, for fear that Chu Yang wouldn't learn it.

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, and Huang Rong poked her head out, glaring at Qiao Feng angrily: "This thick-browed man is so unreasonable. It was clearly those self-proclaimed heroes who besieged us, so how did it become us causing trouble at Juluxian Manor?"

"And that guy named Xue, he was clearly killed by their own hidden weapons in the chaotic battle. What does it have to do with us?"

"Don't spit blood!"

Qiao Feng was stunned for a moment, almost being hit in the face by Chu Yang, and hurriedly reached out to block.

He wanted to ask, but Chu Yang's attack was so fast that he didn't give him a chance, so he had to bite the bullet and fight on.

Huang Rong didn't stay idle either. Chu Yang fought, and she scolded people in the carriage.

The power of the "Yin-Yang Strange Qi" was extraordinary, making Qiao Feng almost go into qi deviation. His mouth skills were not good, so he could only swallow his anger, and the force of his hands became heavier and heavier.

Chu Yang was always calm, like a deep pool in front of Qiao Feng, leaving him with no way to deal with it.

The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, which combined hardness and softness, were resolved by Chu Yang using the most basic unloading technique.

Seeing this, Qiao Feng used the Dragon Claw Hand and the Demon Subduing Palm, one of the seventy-two Shaolin stunts, and was restrained by Chu Yang with the Diamond Finger.

The Ancestor Long Fist, the Dragon Capturing Skill, and the Cloud-Exterminating Palms—Qiao Feng used all his bottom-of-the-box skills, but they were all dismantled by Chu Yang with the general outline of the Nine Yin Manual.

After fighting for a long time, the two had been in a stalemate, and Qiao Feng began to worry.

In order not to let A'Zhu be affected by the battle, he placed her in a forest five miles away. If he didn't go back, she might be in danger.

Qiao Feng didn't know that long before the entanglement began, Chu Yang had whispered the location of A'Zhu to Mu Nianci and asked her to bring A'Zhu over.

Xue Muhua was dead, and Qiao Feng couldn't find a second person to treat A'Zhu's injuries, so Chu Yang understood his anxiety.

Strictly speaking, that chaotic battle that led to Xue Muhua's death, although not initiated by them, was somewhat their responsibility.

Just as Qiao Feng was about to be drained by Chu Yang, Mu Nianci brought A'Zhu back and handed her to Huang Rong for examination.

Huang Yaoshi was a brilliant and talented person, a rare all-rounder, and was at the top level in medicine. Huang Rong, as his daughter, had been influenced by him since childhood, and her medical level was not bad either.

After a slight examination, Huang Rong saw that A'Zhu's internal organs were severely damaged. Under normal circumstances, it was already beyond saving.

"Rong'er, how is it?"

"I can't cure it, but Little Chu can definitely do it. Hurry up and let them stop, save the person first."

Mu Nianci hurriedly shouted at the two people fighting: "Brother Chu, stop fighting, hurry over and save the person!"

Qiao Feng looked back and saw A'Zhu lying in Huang Rong's arms, suddenly shocked and angry, fearing that they would hurt A'Zhu.

Chu Yang smiled slightly, leaped up, stepped on Qiao Feng's shoulder, and flew back to the carriage.

Qiao Feng just wanted to chase, but suddenly fell forward. He looked down and saw that his feet were firmly bound by large tree roots at some point.

Chu Yang put his hand on A'Zhu's forehead, and the pure life energy flowed into her body like a spring, helping her repair the damaged organs.

The pale complexion quickly became rosy.

A few breaths later, Qiao Feng broke free from the shackles and ran wildly toward the carriage.

"You two get off the carriage."

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci listened obediently and jumped off the carriage.

Chu Yang put one hand on A'Zhu's forehead, faced the incoming Qiao Feng sideways, knelt on the carriage shaft, and fought the enemy with one hand.

In the blink of an eye, there were several more moves.

Qiao Feng's fists were as fast as lightning, making a thunder-like sound, and the momentum was terrifying, but he couldn't get close at all. Instead, because of his anxiety, he revealed a flaw and was pushed off the carriage by Chu Yang with one palm.

Coincidentally, at this time, A'Zhu woke up, feeling her body wrapped in a warm current, and felt comfortable all over. She immediately realized what had happened and hurriedly said: "Brother Qiao, stop!"

Hearing A'Zhu's voice, Qiao Feng stopped attacking and asked worriedly: "A'Zhu, how are you?"

A'Zhu looked at Chu Yang gratefully and said excitedly: "Brother Qiao, I am fine, this gentleman cured my injury."

"What?!" Qiao Feng was shocked and hurriedly stepped forward to check.

He knew A'Zhu's injury better than anyone else. Even Doctor Xue could never cure A'Zhu in an instant.

Just touching A'Zhu's wrist, Qiao Feng's expression immediately became astonished.

The pulse was steady and powerful!

How could it look like the pulse of a dying person?

It was clearly a normal person without any damage! "There is such a magical thing in this world?"

Qiao Feng let go of A'Zhu's wrist and looked at Chu Yang in disbelief. The other party could actually save people while fighting him.

"Your methods are truly miraculous, Qiao Feng admires you."

The convinced Qiao Gangzhu bowed to Chu Yang. He understood that since Chu Yang was willing to treat A'Zhu, it was impossible for him to kill Xue Muhua to target him.

"Now you know how to admire? Where did that momentum to kill go just now? I spoke well for you in front of those bears, and it caused me a lot of trouble for no reason!"

After hearing Qiao Feng report his family name, Huang Rong was furious and looked at people with her nostrils directly.

With A'Zhu's intelligence, she had already seen the clues. She pulled Qiao Feng and whispered in his ear: "Brother Qiao, let's apologize."

Qiao Feng nodded, then bowed and apologized to Chu Yang and the others sincerely.

Chu Yang, who had already stolen the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and many stunts from Qiao Feng, was exceptionally magnanimous at this moment and smiled: "It was all a misunderstanding, Gangzhu Qiao, don't take it to heart."

A'Zhu began to ask about the ins and outs of the matter.

Huang Rong didn't explain, snorted and turned her head away, obviously still holding a grudge.

Mu Nianci took the initiative to talk about the conflict outside Juluxian Manor under Chu Yang's signal, and A'Zhu also talked about You Ju deceiving the two.

After a while, both sides understood what was going on.

Qiao Feng was full of guilt and bowed to Huang Rong: "Miss Huang, it was Qiao who was reckless. I didn't expect that it was you who argued for me that caused such a disaster. If you are still angry, you can beat or scold me, Qiao will have no complaints!"

"Forget it, forget it. For the sake of your love and righteousness, you are worthy of my father's high regard. I won't take your previous rudeness to heart!"

Huang Rong was a young girl after all. Hearing that Qiao Feng was willing to break into Juluxian Manor for A'Zhu, she was deeply moved.

This reminded her of Chu Yang fighting Wanyan Honglie alone to save her.

Everything seemed to have happened yesterday.

Huang Rong's eyes suddenly became gentle, and her deep eyes were like stars in the night sky, all the starlight sprinkled on Chu Yang alone.

"Mr. Chu, you saved A'Zhu, and I have no way to repay this kindness. If you have anything you need me to do, please speak up."

Qiao Feng said sincerely.

"It was just a small effort, Gangzhu Qiao, you are too polite. Since Miss A'Zhu is fine, we should leave." Chu Yang bowed and smiled, "Goodbye, see you again if fate allows."

A'Zhu smiled beautifully: "I wish Mr. Chu a smooth journey."

Qiao Feng bowed: "Take care."

"Ah? Just leaving like this?" Huang Rong asked through gritted teeth: "I still want to beat that guy surnamed You!"

Chu Yang rubbed her head: "I have seen the physiognomy of those brothers, they are not long-lived, there is no need to go back and find trouble for them."

Huang Rong was confused, thinking they didn't enter Juluxian Manor at all, and didn't know what the You brothers looked like...

But since Little Chu said they were short-lived, they shouldn't live long. Thinking of this, the corners of Huang Rong's mouth rose slowly, and her mood improved again.

"Miss Huang, rest assured, Qiao will go to Juluxian Manor again."

Qiao Feng took A'Zhu off the carriage shaft. The latter's cheeks were slightly red, and she lowered her head without saying a word.

In fact, A'Zhu's body had returned to normal, but Qiao Feng was used to taking care of her and didn't react for a while.

Watching A'Zhu's happiness, Chu Yang hesitated for a moment, asked Huang Rong to take a piece of letter paper, wrote a paragraph on it, sealed it in a wooden box, and handed it to Qiao Feng.

"Gangzhu Qiao, if you encounter something you are not sure about in the future, or if you are in a dilemma because you know something, you might as well open this wooden box and see."

Qiao Feng took the wooden box, his eyes showing curiosity: "What exactly is in this wooden box?"

"You will know when the time comes."

During the conversation, the three of Chu Yang had already boarded the carriage, and the little red horse snorted and pulled the carriage away.

After Qiao Feng and A'Zhu watched them leave, the former couldn't wait to open the wooden box, but was stopped by the latter.

"Brother Qiao, since Mr. Chu asked you to watch it later, don't mess around." A'Zhu reached out and pressed on the wooden box, her expression serious: "I don't think that Mr. Chu is an ordinary person. When he treated me, he didn't use medicine or needles. I don't even know how I was cured..."

"It is said to be internal energy, but it doesn't seem right. This kind of internal energy that can cure a dying person in an instant is unheard of."

Qiao Feng thought it was terrifying, looked down at the wooden box in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and put it in his arms.

The moon was sparse.

The carriage stopped by a small stream. Chu Yang got out of the carriage to loosen the reins for the little red horse. The little red horse rubbed Chu Yang's back of the hand intimately and walked to the river to lower its head and drink water.

Huang Rong and Mu Nianci were resting in the carriage. Chu Yang estimated that they would sleep until dawn.

He didn't intend to stay here, just took a short break to let the little red horse drink some water, so he didn't wake the two of them, sat by the river, listened to the babbling water, and thought about the next plan.

The effect of the Nine Yin Manual plus the Rinnegan was terrifying, and even high-level martial arts like the seventy-two Shaolin stunts and the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms could be easily obtained.

This was far beyond Chu Yang's expectations.

In this way, it seems that there is a chance to learn Tai Chi through the same method. Should I visit Wudang Mountain on the way to Mongolia? "I seem to have ignored one thing..."

"When was Tai Chi created?"

"The background of this world is so chaotic, time has no reference value at all. If Zhang Sanfeng hasn't created Tai Chi yet, wouldn't it be a wasted trip?"

Chu Yang thought about it and decided to proceed according to the original plan.

Go to the Mongolian Tantric Sect to get the Dragon Elephant Prajna Skill first, and visit Wudang Mountain on the way back. Even if I don't get Tai Chi by then, I won't waste time.

Having made up his mind, for the next half month, Chu Yang crossed the territory of the Northern Song Dynasty and then rushed to the border between Mongolia and the Ming Empire.

On the other side, a few days after Qiao Feng and Chu Yang parted ways, he returned to Juluxian Manor to find trouble with the You brothers.

He originally wanted to teach them a lesson, but the You brothers didn't have much ability, but their temper was not small. After their weapons were broken by Qiao Feng, they immediately chose to commit suicide and died at the speed of light.

They didn't even give Qiao Feng a chance to save them.

After the two brothers died, the Tibetan national teacher Kumārajīva held Duan Yu and Wang Yuyan hostage to Juluxian Manor and bumped into Qiao Feng, and the two sides fought fiercely.

Qiao Feng was inspired by the battle with Chu Yang, and his martial arts moves became more and more simple and return to basics.

Kumārajīva, who had learned part of the Six Meridian Divine Sword, thought he was invincible, but met the newly upgraded Qiao Feng, was beaten until he vomited a few mouthfuls of old blood, and fled in a panic.
