Chapter 232: What's your name, brother?
"Bang!" There was a loud sound.
The world was dead silent.
Everyone looked at Wen Chuansen who fell to the ground with his back facing the sky in disbelief.
The famous Qi-refining master Wen Chuansen who was in the late Zhen Yuan realm was actually dead!
And he died at the hands of an unknown young man!
"I forgot to tell you that I, like your grandson, also practice Taoism and martial arts." After Qin Ziling finished speaking, he slowly stood up, looked up at the sun, and shook his body exaggeratedly, as if he couldn't stand the "scorching" sun.
But at this moment, the shaking was so eye-catching in everyone's eyes.
Especially Xiao Qing and Jian Bailou couldn't help but twitch the corners of their mouths.
Still shaking!
"Thank you for your help, senior." Qin Ziling walked with difficulty to Jian Bailou and bowed.
"You don't have to be polite, my friend. What I hate most in my life are those villains who don't keep their promises!" Jian Bailou said, with black energy emerging from his face from time to time and then being suppressed, and finally returning to normal.
"Senior is truly a righteous and upright person. I respect you the most!" Qin Ziling bowed again and said with admiration.
Pu Jingyan's face looked gloomy and ugly.
The corner of Jian Bailou's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but secretly glare at Qin Ziling, but he soon stroked his beard and laughed out loud.
"Qin Ziling, you despicable villain, give me back my grandfather's life!" A voice filled with overwhelming hatred sounded behind Qin Ziling.
"Brother, what's your name?" Qin Ziling turned slowly and asked Cui Kunhu.
“I…” Cui Kunhu was stunned for a moment, then immediately said: “You are looking for death, of course my last name is Cui!”
"Haha, your last name is Cui? You actually have the nerve to say your last name is Cui? If your last name was Cui, would you watch your father being bullied by your mother for so many years? Would you watch your old father lying on the hospital bed and not care about him? If your last name was Cui, would you point a knife at the Cui family? If your last name was really Cui, then you are also a disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust bastard who is unworthy of being a son!"
Qin Ziling pointed at Cui Kunhu and started cursing him, which made Cui Kunhu furious. He flipped his hand and a emerald green flying knife appeared in his hand. The flying knife soared into the sky and was ready to kill Qin Ziling.
"County Magistrate Dong, he violated the rules and I haven't accepted the challenge yet!" Qin Ziling shouted immediately.
Dong Tianba, who had already stretched out his palm through the air and condensed his strength into a large palm towards the green flying knife, was speechless when he saw Qin Ziling shouting.
Haven’t I already taken action?
Cui Kunhu's flying knife was caught by Dong Batian's palm which was condensed with strong force. He did not dare to push it hard and just took it back.
"But if your surname is not Cui, what is your surname?" Qin Ziling immediately changed the subject and asked Cui Kunhu.
When Cui Kunhu heard this, veins popped up on his forehead and he almost went berserk again.
"Look, you don't even know your own last name, why are you challenging me? Go back, after all, my grandfather raised you." Qin Ziling said, looking at Cui Kunhu with eyes full of pity.
Cui Kunhu learned his lesson this time. He took a deep breath, turned to Dong Tianba, and said with a folded hand: "My Lord, I want to challenge Qin Ziling."
Cui Shanhe stood up immediately after hearing this, with a powerful aura rising into the sky, as if a towering mountain suddenly rose from the ground. He bowed to Dong Tianba and said, "My Lord, Qin Ziling has already fought a battle..."
"Cousin, let me do it! The battle just now was so dull and unsatisfying. Besides, it doesn't make sense for this guy to challenge me , and I won't satisfy him! I accept the challenge!" Qin Ziling shouted, his back suddenly straightened up, like a sword or a spear, like a mountain, pressing down on the surroundings, and there was no sign of him trembling slightly just now, as if the lamp oil had run out.
The world fell into dead silence again.
Except for Jian Bailou and Xiao Qing, everyone stared at Qin Ziling with shock and disbelief.
It turned out that this guy had deliberately shown weakness to the enemy, causing Wen Chuansen to consume his true energy at several times the rate, but he still retained a lot of energy and blood.
It seems that his Qi and blood strength is much stronger and more powerful than that of an ordinary great martial artist in the early stage of bone refining. It is even possible that he is already close to a great martial artist in the late stage of bone refining!
"Kunhu, come back!" Hou Yuehong shouted in a deep voice.
"Your Excellency the County Magistrate, Kunhu challenged me and I accepted the challenge. This should be considered an agreement, right?" Qin Ziling bowed to Dong Tianba.
Dong Tianba's expression changed several times, and finally he looked at Hou Yuehong and said in a deep voice: "Master Hou, if Kunhu goes back, you will lose this game."
Hou Yuehong's expression suddenly changed, but he still said decisively: "We lose!"
The whole audience was silent, with different expressions.
The two sides agreed to fight five games to decide the winner. Now Qin Ziling, a little-known young man, has won two games, and both wins were unexpected.
"Sir Dong, this time it should be the Cui family's turn to perform first, right?" Hou Yuehong said with a gloomy face.
Cui Baiming stood up slowly, his silver hair and beard fluttering.
Seeing Cui Baiming stand up, no one showed the slightest surprise.
Because it is now clear that no matter who comes out from the Cui family, the Hou and Wen families will send out strong men in the late Bone Refining stage or the late True Essence stage to fight and suppress them directly.
Therefore, at this point in the battle, in everyone's opinion, it was actually just a matter of waiting for Cui Baiming to fight and decide the outcome.
"Grandpa, let me do it!" Just when everyone thought that Cui Baiming would fight in this battle, a careless voice suddenly sounded.
Except for Jian Bailou and Xiao Qing, everyone looked at Qin Ziling in disbelief again.
Are you still coming? Is this going to end?
"Zi Ling, no! You've overexerted yourself..." Cui Baiming said immediately.
"It's okay, young people recover quickly!" Qin Ziling interrupted.
"No!" Cui Baiming denied it flatly.
"Grandpa, there are still three matches left, so just let me fight in one more. If I can't win, I can just admit defeat." Qin Ziling persuaded.
Cui Baiming looked hesitant when he heard this.
"Grandpa, if we lose this fight, according to the prior agreement, I, the most important person involved, will have my cultivation abolished. You can protect me now, but if I lose the fight later, the result will be the same." Qin Ziling said calmly, as if he had already become indifferent to life and death and was ready to give it a go.
"Okay! Admit defeat immediately if you can't hold on any longer. We have already won two games. No matter whether you win or lose this one, grandpa will definitely fight to the death in that game. I want to see who else from the Hou family and the Biyun Sect is willing to fight me to the death for such a vicious woman!" Cui Baiming said in a deep voice, his hair and beard fluttering, and the whole person was like a ferocious and inviolable lion.
The faces of the people from the Hou family and the Biyun Sect suddenly changed.
Another elder of the Hou family who was in the late Bone Refining stage had an obvious look of retreat in his eyes, and a great Qi Refining Master in the late True Yuan stage who was on good terms with Wen Chuansen and had come along to provide support also had a look of retreat in his eyes.
"Hou Yuehong, I don't care whether we win or lose, I just want him to die! I just want you to kill him!" Wen Hongfeng pointed at Qin Ziling with gritted teeth, her expression ferocious and her eyes revealing madness.
Hou Yuehong's expression changed several times.
The Hou family had two great martial artists at the late Bone Refining stage, and the Biyun Sect had three great Qi Refining masters at the late True Essence stage, including Deputy Sect Leader Pu Jingyan and Wen Chuansen. Of course, it was impossible for Pu Jingyan to take action.
As for the Cui family, Hou Yuehong only had Cui Baiming, a great martial artist in the late bone refining stage. As for Guo Weijie and others he invited, they only came to help out of courtesy and would never fight for this matter.
Therefore, Hou Yuehong and Wen Chuansen had already made plans, with Wen Chuansen taking action first.
Wen Chuansen's true energy is vigorous and powerful. No matter who attacks from the Cui family, he is sure to win.
If Qin Ziling takes action, that would be the best, he could kill him directly.
If Cui Baiming goes into battle first, it doesn't matter. Wen Chuansen can use his magic weapon to consume Cui Baiming's energy, blood and strength from a distance. In this way, even if he admits defeat later to avoid injury, Cui Baiming will be mostly disabled. Then Hou Yuehong can go into battle and it should not be a problem to suppress him.
As long as Cui Baiming is suppressed, Hou Yuehong and Wen Chuansen will not be afraid of anyone else.
As a result, man proposes, God disposes!
Qin Ziling actually killed Wen Chuansen and forced Hou Yuehong to admit defeat and return his illegitimate son.
Not only that, Cui Baiming also deliberately made harsh remarks.
Once these harsh words were spoken, not only would the elders of the Hou family and Wen Chuansen's fellow disciples who had no personal interests involved be unwilling to take the risk, even Hou Yuehong was unwilling to do so!
"Master Hou, there must be an explanation for Elder Wen's death. You go into battle, and you must kill this fellow with thundering means. As for Cui Baiming, it seems I will have to take action once!" Pu Jingyan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly spoke.
"Pu Jingyan, if you make a move, my old bones will have to move." Jian Bailou said lightly.
Upon hearing this, Pu Jingyan suddenly raised his eyes and looked towards Jian Bailou, his expression changing.
Jian Bailou also looked up at him and continued, "Although I am slightly injured, I can still fight you to the point where both of us are injured and you are hopeless like me in reaching the Grandmaster realm in this life."
"Jian Bailou, why are you doing this?" Pu Jingyan said coldly.
"People like you will never understand!" Jian Bailou said with a cold smile, "Anyway, let me put it this way. If you, Pu Jingyan, have the courage, just go for it."
Pu Jingyan had a gloomy face and remained silent.
Seeing Pu Jingyan fall silent, the Hou family elder who was in the late bone refining stage and the great Qi refining master in the late true essence stage of the Biyun Sect both lowered their heads deliberately, pretending not to notice the look Hou Yuehong cast towards them.
Hou Yuehong's face turned extremely ugly.
Seeing that the family elders and fellow disciples were unwilling to stand up for her husband, Wen Chuansen's wife Hou Hanxue gently stroked her husband's eyes, which were still open in death, then snorted coldly with a sullen face and slowly stood up.
"Let me do it, aunt!" Hou Yuehong saw Hou Hanxue preparing to take action herself, looked at her and then at his cousin Wen Hongfeng, whose face was becoming more and more ferocious, his face suddenly darkened and he spoke.
Hou Yuehong lost his mother at a young age. His aunt Hou Hanxue treated him as her own son and took good care of him since he was a child . It was also at that time that he fell in love with his cousin Wen Hongfeng, so much so that when she was frustrated and jealous, he took the opportunity to have an affair with her and gave birth to Cui Kunhu, an illegitimate son. Moreover, Hou Yuehong's ability to sit on the position of the head of the family today is inseparable from the support of Wen Chuansen and Hou Hanxue.
Now that things have developed to this point, others may not step forward, but it is unacceptable for Hou Yuehong not to step forward. Moreover, as the head of the Hou family, Hou Yuehong cannot afford to lose face.
