Chapter 154

They all praised Unlike Nie Feng as a rare and excellent disciple who knew what to say and what not to say.

As a disciple and half a son, although asking about Master's lifespan was somewhat impolite, it was at least done with good intentions.

Unexpectedly, Su Hang spoke up at this moment:

"Your Master can live for at most one more year."

"He is destined to die at fifty-seven; he cannot live a single day longer!"

With Su Hang's words, he might as well have poked a hornet's nest.

Not only did the crowd disbelieve it, but even Unlike Nie Feng and Bu Bu Jingyun standing before him shook their heads repeatedly upon hearing it.

Even if Xiong Ba were a novice whose Wu Gong ranked below the top ten,

what about the top twenty? The top thirty?

Generally speaking, how could an absolute expert ranked in the top thirty possibly live only to fifty-seven?

Look at the Han Empire; there are plenty of martial artists who have lived to eighty, ninety, or even over a hundred.

Moreover, just now, Mr. Su personally stated that there is an ancient monster in the Wu Lin who has lived for two thousand years.

Furthermore, the current Xiong Ba has a robust physique and a head of black hair,

and even managing the All-Under-Heaven Sect with hundreds of thousands of people, he feels not the slightest fatigue.

Not only that, he has boundless energy day and night and even wishes to break out of the Great Han Empire to contend with the world!

How could such a person have a lifespan of only fifty-seven?

But on the other hand,

although these words sound incredible,

one must consider that the speaker is none other than Su Hang!

Therefore, the crowd dared not disbelieve!

After all, in recent days, Mr. Su's record has been brilliant; every single thing he predicted stands right there as proof!

Facts speak louder than words; there is no choice but to believe!

Unlike Nie Feng, confused, hurriedly asked:

"May I ask, Mr. Su, why is this so?"

"Master dying at fifty-seven is too incredible...."

Upon hearing this, Bu Bu Jingyun added a blow from the side:

"Unless he is struck by lightning, it is impossible."

Hearing this, Su Hang sighed and said:

"Your Master, Xiong Ba, is precisely the one you will kill."

"To be precise, you two disciples will kill him together; one with a knife, one with a sword, stabbing and hacking him to death."

Unlike Nie Feng: "...."

Bu Bu Jingyun: "....."

Seeing Su Hang throw such a heavy accusation at them,

even the usually calm Unlike Nie Feng could not help but panic.

One must know that in the current Zong Wu Shi Jie, killing one's Master is an unforgivable grave crime!

Moreover, the entire world will not tolerate it!

If a martial artist is convicted of killing his Master, then with heaven and earth so vast, there will be absolutely no place for him to hide!

Hearing Su Hang say this, Bu Bu Jingyun was also terrified; for a moment, he clenched his fists and ground his teeth.

He did have some dissatisfaction with Xiong Ba, but it was far from the point of killing him!

Yet the Mr. Su before them seemed to see through everything and directly claimed that Xiong Ba would be stabbed by him!

This...

If Xiong Ba found out, how could it be explained?

If that old man became stubborn and refused to listen to any explanation, would not the master-disciple relationship of so many years immediately turn into enmity?

I fear that by then, my junior brother Feng and I would truly have no choice but to stab him to death.

Thoughts in the heart, a tangled mess!

Thinking of this, Bu Bu Jingyun hurriedly asked:

"Mr. Su, please explain clearly, why is this so?"

"We cannot bear the name of killing our Master..."

Su Hang calmly replied: "You must add money."

Although Bu Bu Jingyun was displeased, he still reached into his pocket and pulled out a banknote for 30,000 taels of silver!

Seeing this, Su Hang smiled slightly, took the money, and felt much more at ease in his heart.

This way, there was a total income of 230,000 taels!

He then said:

"This is actually simple....."

"It is because your Master intends to kill you, so you have no choice but to kill him!"

"Between you and your Master, fate dictates you are enemies, not master and disciple."

With Su Hang saying this, Unlike Nie Feng and Bu Bu Jingyun still looked puzzled on their faces.

Su Hang explained:

"I suppose you also know,"

"Ten years ago, the All-Under-Heaven Sect was not like it is today; back then, the All-Under-Heaven Sect was merely a large Men Sect, far from as powerful as it is now."

"And within a mere ten years, a single Men Sect managed to unify the Jianghu, even Caokongchaotang."

"The greatest reason for this lies with the two of you!"

Fengyun: "We..."

Bu Bu Jingyun: "..."

Su Hang said no more, continuing his explanation:

"Ten years ago, your Master summoned the number one diviner under heaven, the Mud Bodhisattva."

"The Mud Bodhisattva cast two hexagrams for your Master!"

"The first hexagram reads: 【How can the golden scales be mere pond creatures? Once they meet Fengyun, they transform into dragons.】"

"The 【Fengyun】 in this hexagram refers to the two of you; the meaning is that for Xiong Ba to rise to prominence, he needed the two of you to empower him!"

"Precisely because of this, the Xiong Ba of that year spared no effort in searching for you, Xiang Jin Ban Fa to obtain you!"

"To take you both as disciples, he slaughtered your families to the last man, ensuring the two of you had no worries or distractions back home."

"Unlike Nie Feng, think carefully: when you were ten years old, your father dueled someone; did that opponent resemble Xiong Ba?"

"Bu Bu Jingyun, although Xiong Ba did not personally wipe out your Bu Manmen, he personally gave the order; do you recall the appearance of the Flame Twin Monsters under Xiong Ba's command?"

At this very moment,

with Su Hang speaking thus,

memories of that year immediately surfaced in the minds of Unlike Nie Feng and Bu Bu Jingyun.

Although many years had passed and the memories of that time had become fragments,

upon careful reflection, it was indeed as Su Hang said.

In his dazed state, Unlike Nie Feng seemed to see a burly man laughing wildly; although he could not see the face clearly, he remembered that unrestrained, wild laughter—who else could it be but his own Master, Xiong Ba?

And upon learning that the Flame Twin Monsters had acted on Xiong Ba's orders, Bu Bu Jingyun was even more certain that it was Xiong Ba who had destroyed his Manmen!

After Su Hang spoke thus, the two seemed to hold Xiong Ba in far less respect!

Bu Bu Jingyun said coldly:

"There is one matter Bu Bu Jingyun does not understand!"

"That is, back then, Wind Junior Brother and I were merely young children; even now that we have grown into adults, our Wu Gong Jing Jie is only that of a Grand Master! In the Jianghu, we are nothing!"

"And Xiong Ba, merely for two young children, went to such Da Fei Zhou Zhang, even wiping out my Manmen; was this worth it?"

Hearing this, the crowd nodded for quite a while.

Hearing this, Su Hang smiled again, shook his head, and said:

"Of course it was worth it."

"Because what he wanted was not your persons..."

"Your Men De Wu Gong means nothing to him..."
