Chapter 217

Even if she knew Su Hang could handle it, she still couldn't help but feel a burst of worry in her heart.

After all, the person he had to face this time was no one else; this was the Green-Shirted Sword God of the past!

And on the other side.

Jiang Yuyan saw the slovenly old man before her and asked in disbelief:

"This old man... is the former number one in the world?"

"I can't tell!"

At this very moment,

Li Chungang's appearance naturally brought about a burst of uproar from the crowd.

After all, since Su Hang had set up his fortune-telling stall in Xueyue City, this was the most important figure who had ever appeared!

Thinking of this, Su Hang asked calmly:

"May I ask how the old senior wants to calculate?"

Li Chungang looked at Su Hang before him teasingly.

He then took another gulp of strong liquor and said with a soft smile:

"That Eight Characters stuff is all fake; things destined by fate don't happen, and things not in fate happen repeatedly, so it's better not to calculate!"

"As for physiognomy, this old man is over seventy and slovenly, so it's better not to look!"

"Otherwise, how about this old man leaves a character, and Mr. Su takes a look?"

For Li Chungang now, everything was already set in stone, and there was nothing left to calculate.

The reason he came to Xueyue City this time was just to follow Xu Fengnian and Old Huang and provide protection when necessary.

This was something he had promised Xu Xiao twenty years ago.

Hearing this, Su Hang nodded lightly and said:

"Very well!"

"Please leave a character, sir."

Li Chungang flicked his hand lightly, and a branch above was broken off from a distance, falling straight into his hand.

He held the branch and pondered to himself,

and a moment later,

Li Chungang used the branch in his hand to write the character 【Green】 in the mud.

After he finished writing, the onlookers couldn't help but feel curious, leaning forward to look, and couldn't help but feel confused.

They had originally thought that a big boss like Li Chungang would leave a character like Sword or Hegemony, which would fit his identity as the former Green-Shirted Sword God.

But what everyone didn't expect was that he actually left the character 【Green】.

Seeing this, everyone, including Wang Yuyan and the others, was also very curious.

Even the smartest people in the world couldn't see the intention behind the character Li Chungang left.

"What does it mean? Why is it a Green character?"

"Yes! This old man thought the Old Sword God wouldn't give up and wanted to return to the Jianghu; at the very least, he should leave a Sword character!"

"Don't say that; if he were willing to leave a Sword character, I imagine there would be quite a few people in the martial arts world willing to pay a high price to buy it!"

"But then again, what exactly does this 'Green' character mean?"

"Don't talk anymore, let's listen to Mr. Su!"

Li Chungang looked at the character he had written, half happy and half dejected.

And seeing this, Su Hang couldn't help but smile knowingly, and then said:

"This old senior left this 【Green】 character; I think there are three meanings."

"The first meaning is about the ambition of the blue clouds."

"This old man with white hair is truly pitiful, vaguely a beautiful young man."

"It speaks of the old senior's ambition to rise to the blue clouds in his youth!"

"Roaming the Jianghu, enjoying life, discussing swords before the Buddha, killing people before others, wanting to compete with the heavens?"

"This one character happens to reflect the nature of youth, which is to look down on everything!"

"Thinking back then, the senior became famous at a young age and entered the Land Immortal Realm before the age of thirty; such cultivation is truly a height that others can never reach in their lifetime."

"Later on, he challenged various masters in the world, dozens of battles, and never lost once!"

"Ask yourself, what in life is more nostalgic than rising to the blue clouds?"

Hearing Su Hang say this, Li Chungang narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly.

At the same time, he was slightly surprised in his heart.

He never expected that the Su Hang before him could see his heart through a simple character!

And every word was sincere, seeming to understand him better than he understood himself.

Thinking of this,

Li Chungang paused and continued:

"What Mr. Su said is absolutely correct!"

"The old man's greatest dream in his youth was to display his ambition and not let down his seven-foot body."

"And just as Mr. Su said, the old man's sword path was slightly successful in the past, and thanks to the love of heroes from all walks of life in the Jianghu, I got the title of Green-Shirted Sword God."

Hearing this, Xu Fengnian was slightly stunned and said to Old Huang:

"Old Huang, you all lied to me!"

"So you and Old Li are both famous swordsmen in the Jianghu!!!"

"Why didn't you tell me earlier? Why did I even bother traveling the Jianghu!"

After hearing Xu Fengnian's words, Old Huang gave another lecherous smile and said:

"Crown Prince, what's the use of telling you?"

"After all, our era has already passed!"

"Even if there was all kinds of glory yesterday, that was yesterday!"

"People! You have to look forward, you have to move forward! If you are blindly immersed in yesterday, that is wasting time and achieving nothing!"

According to the plan, Old Huang and Li Chungang originally intended to keep their identities secret until the end.

But they didn't expect Mr. Su of the Half-Moon Inn to have already made everything clear.

In this way, Old Huang had no need to hide.

It was just that in Xu Fengnian's eyes, he could never connect the slovenly old man before him with the world-famous Sword Nine Huang.

And at the same time.

Li Chungang was slightly stunned and continued:

"Then may I ask Mr. Su, what is the second meaning of this 【Green】 character?"

"To tell you the truth, let alone you, even I, the old man, don't understand!"

"I just followed my heart and wrote this Green character in a daze."

Seeing this,

Su Hang smiled again and interpreted:

"The second meaning of this 【Green】 character refers to the blue sky!"

"It's just that you used too much force; this perfectly good Green character appears somewhat evil because of the resentment in your heart."

"You were once incomparably confident in your sword path, feeling that it was the number one in the world without a doubt!"

"Even though you lost to Wang Xianzhi in a martial arts competition back then, deep in your heart, you didn't think you lost."

"On the contrary, because you cherished his talent, you spared Wang Xianzhi's life, and thus you were defeated."

"Although you handed over the number one position to others, in the eyes of the world, you lost."

"But you know in your heart, and Wang Xianzhi knew back then, that you were actually the winner."

"Wang Xianzhi won the sword path, but you won the demeanor!"

"It is very clear that the person who won the demeanor is the biggest winner!"

"And it is precisely because of this that for these sixty years, Wang Xianzhi has always called himself number two in the world, leaving the number one position to you!"

"But in the battle of Mount Longhu, you lost, lost completely."

"Sword path, demeanor, and pattern, none of them could compare to Qi Xuanzhen!"

"You don't believe it, you don't accept it, and you don't admit it!"
