Chapter 305

As Su Chen's voice fell, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Viewed in this light, this Shi Guanyin is certainly no simple character.

Some even cheered for the Master of the Divine Water Palace, helping the Jianghu rid itself of a scourge.

But more people silently watched Su Chen, waiting for his next commentary.

……

The sixth private room in the East District.

Lian Xing said with some astonishment: "Mother Yin Ji? This person's strength is truly unfathomable."

Yao Yue nodded upon hearing this.

The Great Ming Jianghu has many female experts, among whom three women have the most resounding reputations.

One is Dongfang Bubai, who suppresses the three states from the top of Black Wood Cliff.

One is Yao Yue, the Master of the Inviting Flower Palace, with a celestial-demonic physique and peerless divine arts.

And the last is this Master of the Divine Water Palace, Mother Yin Ji.

Moreover, compared to Yao Yue and Dongfang Bubai, Mother Yin Ji is more of a veteran, having been invincible in the Jianghu for over forty years.

The influence of the Divine Water Palace, while low-key, is rumored to be no less than that of Shaolin or Wudang.

In the last twenty years, Mother Yin Ji has almost never appeared in the Jianghu.

Many Jianghu heroes of the new generation have therefore begun to question Mother Yin Ji's strength.

Now that Su Chen's commentary is out, I believe these voices of doubt will also vanish.

"I hope to have the chance to cross swords with her."

Yao Yue said coldly, her eyes full of fighting spirit.

"653"……

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen gently shook his folding fan, pondered for a moment, and said clearly:

"Shi Guanyin, named Li Qi, was the sole survivor of the Huangshan family, which was wiped out by the Huashan Sect back then."

"To take revenge and fulfill her own ambitions, Li Qi changed her name to Shi Qi, took Master Wuhen as her teacher, and practiced the 'Heavenly Martial Nerve', a martial art no one in the Jianghu dared to touch."

"On the surface, she married the imperial official Liu Heting under the fake identity of a junior sister, but in secret, she became the ruler of the Black-Clad Divine Demons, stirring up trouble in the Jianghu and committing every evil deed."

"Later, her tracks were exposed, and she suffered joint strikes from the imperial court and the Jianghu. Although she escaped death, she could not gain a foothold in the Great Ming Jianghu and had to flee far away to Dongying."

"In Dongying, she met Tianfeng Shisilang, who was deeply devoted to her, and bore him two children."

"But Shi Guanyin's ambition did not disappear; she learned mysterious ninjutsu in Dongying, and her strength advanced by leaps and bounds."

"Thus, she abandoned Tianfeng Shisilang and her two children, returned to the Central Plains, slaughtered her way up Mount Huashan alone, killed all seven of the Huashan Swords who had massacred the Huangshan family, and then strode away."

"After her revenge, Shi Guanyin's ambition grew even larger, and she sought to rebuild the 'Black-Clad Divine Demons', but was ultimately stopped by Mother Yin Ji, the Master of the Divine Water Palace, who personally stepped in to defeat her."

"Shi Guanyin feared Mother Yin Ji's martial arts and could only flee to the vast desert beyond the frontier, but her ambition remained undiminished, and she established the Stone Forest Cave Mansion as her lair."

"She changed her name again, became the Princess of Guizi, and stirred up trouble in the frontier."

"Her martial Dao talent is undoubtedly extremely high, excelling in movement techniques and moves, and she even created a unique skill called 'Men Cannot Look'."

"This martial art is extremely magical; when she strikes, her long sleeves fly up like clouds emerging from a mountain, changing into a dozen postures in an instant, looking just like a peerless dancing girl gracefully dancing."

"But it is by no means a flashy martial art; it contains lethal killing intent, is exquisite and flawless, and is especially difficult to defend against or parry when used against men."

"Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, she is tentatively ranked tenth on the Grandmaster List."

Terrifying!

Hearing Su Chen's commentary, everyone couldn't help but gasp.

What a ruthless Shi Guanyin; indeed, as Su Chen said, she is a strange woman with a very magical life.

Her family was wiped out in her childhood, leading her onto a path of revenge.

Shi Guanyin's background is sympathetic, but her ruthlessness and heartlessness are equally unacceptable.

"What a terrifying Shi Guanyin, to actually practice that forbidden unique skill, the 'Heavenly Martial Nerve'; she really is a ruthless person."

"It is said that this 'Heavenly Martial Nerve' records many powerful unique skills, but practicing it is extremely painful, and no one has ever dared to practice it."

"So the founder of the Black-Clad Divine Demons back then was Shi Guanyin; she caused quite a catastrophe in the Jianghu at the time."

"The Master of the Divine Water Palace did well! Banishing Shi Guanyin to the vast desert; otherwise, who knows how much trouble she would have caused the Great Ming Jianghu."

"This Shi Guanyin is truly formidable; she went to the vast desert and became the Princess of Guizi. No wonder the entire Guizi Kingdom has been full of complaints these years, all calling the Princess an 'Evil Concubine'; one can see how vicious this person is."

"I only hope this Shi Guanyin stays in the vast desert forever and never returns to the Central Plains."

……

In the main hall, everyone was discussing heatedly, feeling both hatred and fear toward this Shi Guanyin.

This woman is definitely a lunatic, with extremely high martial arts, a ruthless heart, peerless intelligence, and burning ambition.

Thinking of such a female demon with great ambition for the Great Ming Jianghu existing in the vast desert beyond the frontier, everyone couldn't help but worry.

More people showed expressions of anticipation.

Such a formidable Shi Guanyin can only be ranked tenth on the Grandmaster List.

This makes them even more curious about the origins of the nine people ranked above her.

……

On the Bai Yu Platform.

Su Chen sipped some clear tea, met the expectant gazes of the crowd, and continued:

"Next, I will comment on the ninth place on the Grandmaster List, Liu Xi."

"This person is the Superintendent of the Eastern Depot of the Great Ming, born as a palace eunuch, and thus deeply trusted by the Ming Emperor."

"The Eastern Depot under his command is also the largest secret service agency in the Great Ming, supervising the imperial officials above and controlling the Jianghu below, with monstrous power."

"The martial art he practices is called the 'Distant Qi Absorption Technique', which can turn others' internal energy into his own."

"Over the years, Liu Xi has used his position to capture a large number of Jianghu experts and drain their internal energy, thus his internal power is extremely deep."

"However, this 'Distant Qi Absorption Technique' cannot increase internal energy infinitely; Liu Xi has now reached his limit."

"If he wants to go further, he must master the final layer of the 'Distant Qi Absorption Technique'."

"But Liu Xi's aptitude is limited, and he cannot master it on his own, so he plans to forcibly break through using the method of 'Sacrificing Five Yangs and Two Yins'."

"After comprehensive consideration, he is tentatively ranked ninth on the Grandmaster List."

As this commentary ended, the main hall was once again in an uproar.

As for Liu Xi, everyone was naturally familiar with him, one could even say they were gnashing their teeth!

This person has harmed the Jianghu, brought disaster to the court, and the number of upright officials he has wiped out is countless, already causing public grievances to rise everywhere.

But he is deeply trusted by the Ming Emperor and holds the Eastern Depot, which can interrogate even first-rank officials at will, making the world dare to be angry but dare not speak.

Especially after his secret of harming the Jianghu was exposed by Su Chen, the people of the Jianghu wished they could eat his flesh.

For a time, the main hall was filled with heated discussions:

"Ninth place on the Grandmaster List? I didn't expect this scoundrel Liu Xi's internal power to be so deep; no wonder so many Jianghu experts have fallen victim to his poisonous hands."

"Hehe, if he didn't have this level of power, do you think Liu Xi could sit firmly as the Superintendent of the Eastern Depot? There isn't just one or two people in the world who want him dead."

"That's right, except for the agents of the Eastern Depot, there shouldn't be anyone who doesn't hate Liu Xi, but his martial arts are too high, and no one can do anything to him."

"This time, Mr. Su has even brought out the Iron Certificate of Immunity, killing Liu Xi is not a crime; I want to see who in the Jianghu has the guts to eliminate this scourge for the people!"

"That's right! Mr. Su has even brought out such a supreme treasure as the Iron Certificate of Immunity; if no one goes to kill Liu Xi, then the face of the righteous Jianghu will truly be lost."

"Rest assured, everyone, Liu Xi will definitely die this time; he has offended the Shaolin Sect and the Wudang Sect!"

"What about Shaolin and Wudang? I really don't believe they dare to charge directly into the capital and kill their way into the Eastern Depot headquarters."
