Chapter 115: The Dangerous Zhang Jie

Zhang Jie nodded slightly upon hearing this, and said indifferently:

"My business is currently finished."

"That's good, that's good!"

Seeing that Zhang Jie had no intention of continuing the slaughter, Ruyang Wang finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Zhang Jie stopped paying attention to Ruyang Wang, who had no more value, and came to A-Da, who was still dejected,

and clearly had not recovered from the blow just now.

He shook his head and sighed with emotion:

"I never thought that the head of the former Four Great Elders of the Beggar Sect,

Eight-Armed Sword Dongfang Bai, would join the Ruyang Wang Fu and become a running dog of the Yuan people."

'What? A-Da is actually Dongfang Bai, the head of the former Four Great Elders of the Beggar Sect?'

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo could not hide the shock in his heart upon hearing this, and his pupils shrank.

This Dongfang Bai was not only powerful in Wu Gong back then, but also had a great reputation in the Jianghu, and his sword skills were superb,

as if four experts with one heart were besieging him,

so the Jianghu people respectfully called him "Eight-Armed Sword"!

And within the Beggar Sect, Dongfang Bai was also highly respected,

and back then, he nearly defeated the current Beggar Sect Leader, Shi Huolong, to become the new Sect Leader.

The reason he disappeared from the Jianghu afterward was said to be that he fell ill from depression after failing to compete for the Sect Leader position and died of illness.

I did not expect him to fake his death and go to the Ruyang Wang Fu to serve.

Thinking of his purpose for lurking in Ruyang Wang,

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo could not help but guess that the reason Dongfang Bai was willing to be Ruyang Wang's running dog,

was also because he had a very deep hidden purpose, such as using the power of the Great Yuan to take back the Beggar Sect Leader position or something.

But what puzzled him was that according to his observations over the years, A-Da had no actions to retaliate against the Beggar Sect.

"What running dog?

If the Prince hadn't saved me back then, I wouldn't even have been a running dog."

A-Da, or rather Dongfang Bai, smiled miserably.

Back then, he was plotted against by his fellow disciples in the Beggar Sect's internal strife and was seriously injured and on the verge of death.

If Ruyang Wang had not sent a divine doctor and spared no precious medicine to save him, he would have long been a pile of dry bones.

After experiencing various internal strifes and treacherous betrayals in the Beggar Sect, he was thoroughly disappointed with the sect,

but out of old feelings, he did not want to mention the past, so he chose to hide his name.

He was willing to be Ruyang Wang's servant just to repay Ruyang Wang's kindness.

"The struggle for power is really cruel."

Thinking of Dongfang Bai's encounter, Zhang Jie could not help but sigh.

It was the same in the Beggar Sect, the same in Emei, and still the same in his Wu Dang.

"Indeed."

Speaking of this, even Ruyang Wang nodded in agreement with deep feeling.

Even though he was the Great Yuan's Grand Marshal of Military Forces and inherited the title of Ruyang Wang, he could be called high-ranking and powerful,

but was he not also trembling and walking on thin ice?

For these years, he had been walking carefully in the Shura field of power,

not daring to slack off for a moment, fearing that one carelessness would lead to the destruction of his family.

He was like this, and even the person sitting high on the dragon chair in the palace, the most noble,

the most supreme person in the world, was he not the same?

The Great Yuan had only passed through five generations since Shizu Kublai, but had already changed eleven emperors,

and the blood and rain contained in this were self-evident.

'That's why I want to practice martial arts!'

Zhang Jie's thoughts became more firm.

As long as he could reach the realm where one person could defeat the whole world,

he would no longer be troubled by these trivial matters!

If one Zhang Jie couldn't do it, then two Zhang Jies; if two Zhang Jies couldn't do it, then three Zhang Jies, four Zhang Jies, five Zhang Jies, one hundred Zhang Jies, an infinite number of Zhang Jies!

'People live to be at ease.'

Zhang Jie remembered the famous saying of a villain who stopped being human in *JoJo*.

"Everyone, we will meet again."

Zhang Jie, who had finished thinking, picked up the Xuanming Elders and A-Er, and disappeared into the night with a few flashes.

"Hoo!"

Confirming that Zhang Jie had left, the hearts of Ruyang Wang and the others, who had survived the disaster, were finally put down.

Ruyang Wang touched his back and felt a chill.

He then realized that his python robe had been soaked with cold sweat at some point!

"Accompanying the king is like accompanying a tiger!"

Ruyang Wang sighed softly with a bitter smile.

Zhang Jie, who possessed the power to crush them at will, was a king to them.

After all, the essence of a king is the absolute power to decide life and death with one word,

and Zhang Jie just now possessed the absolute violence to decide their life and death with one thought!

Most of the time, this absolute violence is even more terrifying than absolute power.

After all, a king still has to consider balance, while a strong man who masters absolute violence can truly do whatever he wants!

After Zhang Jie left, Ruyang Wang felt a tidal wave of exhaustion surge into his heart.

He didn't want to do anything now, he just wanted to lie on the bed and have a good rest.

But he knew he couldn't; anyone in the Ruyang Wang Fu could rest now,

but he, this Ruyang Wang, could not rest;

because he, this Ruyang Wang, was the backbone of the entire Ruyang Wang Fu,

and if he fell, the Ruyang Wang Fu would fall.

Before his son Wang Baobao could take on the heavy responsibility, he could not fall no matter what.

"Minmin, you go immediately and get a portion of Black Jade Intermittent Ointment for Mr. Yuwen to use."

Ruyang Wang, who tried his best to cheer up, ordered Zhao Min.

Well, just like A-Da's real name was Dongfang Bai,

A-San's A-San was just a code name, and his real name was Yuwen Ce.

"Yes, Father."

Zhao Min went to carry out the order.

"Mr. Dongfang, are you okay?"

Ruyang Wang came to Dongfang Bai and asked with concern.

Dongfang Bai squeezed a smile on his thin face:

"Prince, I am fine, but from now on, I fear I will never be able to swing a sword again."

Although only his scapula was pierced, he could recover after recuperation, and his cultivation would be almost unaffected,

but Zhang Jie's finger had shattered his martial arts heart, causing his Wu Gong to drop by at least fifty percent.

Only on the day he could defeat Zhang Jie head-on could his martial arts heart recover,

but he could not even defeat Zhang Jie's finger in his prime, let alone now that he was half-crippled.

And Zhang Jie was so young, he might make a few more steps in martial arts in the future,

how could he have a chance to defeat Zhang Jie head-on?

Ruyang Wang's eyes dimmed upon hearing this.

His Ruyang Wang's experts, from the Eight Heroes of the Divine Arrow down to the Xuanming Elders, were almost all wiped out by Zhang Jie.

Now even Dongfang Bai, who was the least injured, had a serious decline in Wu Gong.

His achievements in winning over Jianghu experts for many years were lost in one night.

"Mr. Dongfang, recuperate well, and on the day you break through your inner demons,

your Wu Gong will definitely be able to go to the next level." Ruyang Wang comforted softly.

"Father, the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment has been brought."

A short while later, Zhao Min returned to report.

Ruyang Wang eagerly ordered:

"Bitter Master, hurry and use it for Mr. Yuwen and Yishang and the others."

Now that the experts of the Ruyang Wang Fu were withering,

any expert with hope of rescue must be rescued.

"Hmm!"

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo nodded heavily, took the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment from Zhao Min, and went to apply medicine for A-San and the others.

A-San, who was collapsed on the ground, also had a look of hope on his face:

Since Zhang Jie specifically came to get the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment for the Wu Dang Third Hero Yu Daiyan to use,

then the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment should also be useful for him.

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo took a portion of the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment in his hand,

and after wiping it, he began to apply medicine for A-San.

But as time passed, this originally very easy work made him sweat profusely.

Even the hope in A-San's eyes gradually extinguished, and his face was like death.

Ruyang Wang saw that something was wrong and hurriedly asked:

"Bitter Master, is the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment wrong?"

"Umm, umm, umm!"

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo, who always kept in mind the self-cultivation of an actor, danced eagerly.

Ruyang, who did not understand sign language, had a headache and did not understand the meaning.

It was Zhao Min, who had taken Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo as her martial arts teacher

and was already used to communicating with him in sign language, who stood up to translate for Ruyang Wang.

She said somewhat uncertainly:

"Bitter Master, are you saying that there is a strand of Qi entrenched in A-San's body,

making the Black Jade Intermittent Ointment ineffective for him?"

"Hmm, hmm!"

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo nodded repeatedly.

Ruyang Wang, thinking of what Zhang Jie said just now, that he wanted to make A-San like his Martial Uncle Yu Daiyan,

lying in bed for the rest of his life, could not help but smile bitterly.

He said how Zhang Jie only took away the Xuanming Elders and A-Er,

but ignored A-San, the culprit; it turned out he already had a backup plan.

Although he had no hope in his heart, Ruyang Wang still tentatively asked:

"Bitter Master, is there any hope of expelling the Qi in Mr. Yuwen's body?"

"Umm, umm, umm!"

Bitter Head Ku Ku Toutuo danced again.

Zhao Min translated for him: "Bitter Master says the Qi in A-San's body has penetrated his bone marrow,

and merged with his original internal energy, the two prospering and suffering together.

Unless Zhang Jie, who made the move, removes it himself,

or a Grandmaster with higher power than Zhang Jie makes a move,

otherwise, there is basically no hope."

Ruyang Wang shook his head imperceptibly upon hearing this:

Not to mention whether their Great Yuan still had a Grandmaster with higher power than Zhang Jie.

Even if there was one, why would such an expert make a move for A-San?

As of now, A-San was completely crippled.

However, considering A-San's past contributions, Ruyang Wang did not choose to abandon him:

"Someone, carry Mr. Yuwen down and take good care of him."

The following Eight Heroes of the Divine Arrow also had similar problems to A-San.

The Qi left by Zhang Jie in their bodies, although not as much as A-San's,

was entrenched in their right hands like maggots on bones.

This meant that even if their right hands could recover, they could never draw a powerful bow again.

In other words, these eight archers of the Eight Heroes of the Divine Arrow were also considered crippled.

"This child is truly terrifying!"

Thinking of Zhang Jie having the energy to do these things in the fierce battle just now,

Ruyang Wang could not help but raise Zhang Jie's danger level by several levels.

In his eyes, Zhang Jie was already more terrifying than Zhang Sanfeng.

At least Zhang Sanfeng had never used such near-demonic means when roaming the world.

More terrifying than a peerless expert with high Wu Gong,

is a peerless expert with high Wu Gong who is also unscrupulous and has no taboos! ===== CHAPTER 116 =====

He is a peerless expert with extremely high Wu Gong, who is also unscrupulous and knows no taboos!
