The fifth volume is full of awe and martial arts legends Chapter 217: The Peacock Feather is Born
In the early summer of that year , more than a month had passed since the Battle of Chang'an. The martial arts world, which had been plagued by wars and endless fighting, finally welcomed a brief period of peace.
But the calmer it is, the more uneasy and frightened people become.
Because Gongzi Yu died, the whereabouts of the seven dragon leaders of the Qinglong Society were unknown, except for Yan Shisan, and Bai Yujing was plotting to seize power, and the rest were all dead.
After Bai Yujing came to power, the first thing he did was to send all the rare treasures, gold and silver treasures in the underground palace to the capital and give them to eight great figures.
These eight people were not only the emperor's favorites, but also powerful officials who held great power in the court and the country. They held the power of life and death and were second only to the emperor.
After learning that Bai Yujing's backers were actually these eight people, all the forces in the martial arts world, as well as the giants and heroes, felt a pang of fear and anxiety.
Something big is going to happen .
Not only did these eight people surface, but the capital's government also gained a new important figure.
This man is the marquis of the current dynasty, sitting in charge of the "Six Gates", commanding the three departments, overseeing the punishments of thirteen provinces, and supervising the martial arts world. He is no small matter.
And most importantly, this man’s surname is Yang and his name is Zheng, and he is the owner of the “Farewell Hook” back then.
Everyone also understood that the imperial court was preparing to take action against the martial arts world.
The storm is coming.
※※※
A blazing fire illuminated a dark cave.
Beside the fire, the young man exposed his hot and red chest, and his rough and stiff hands were covered with wounds of various sizes. The new and old wounds were intertwined and crisscrossed, almost wearing out his fingerprints and nails.
What kind of hands are these?
This is a pair of extremely skillful hands that is unique in the world.
Because these two hands are going to recast the Peacock Feather, and they are already halfway there, and will soon be finished.
Outside the grotto is the Meteorite Dragon Valley of Peacock Villa.
The cicadas were chirping in the valley and the sun was shining brightly in the sky. Ye'er, with two arms as tender as lotus roots exposed and a small net in her hands, followed behind Pharmacist Li to catch flying insects on the branches and leaves.
Hearing the laughter of the two people, one big and one small, Li Muchan, who was standing in the shade, also smiled.
“Ahem…”
But it was a hot summer day, and the breath he exhaled was not warm and hot, but rather had a hint of chilliness, and even his face remained pale.
Li Muchan let out a sigh of relief, having already thought about it in his mind. This should be the flaw of the so-called Ghost Secret Score mentioned by the Flying Swordsman.
Especially after he was seriously injured and fought for his life in the underground palace, this defect seemed to be magnified.
In order to protect himself, he dug up graves and corpses, and used the vast amount of corpse energy to practice this evil skill. In just a few days, he refined no less than a hundred corpses. Although he was successful, he must have suffered some damage to himself.
The signs of this matter were first seen that year, with occasional coughing, so Li Muchan was not surprised by the current situation.
If I just want to resolve the hidden dangers brought about by this defect, I may have to go to the old site of the "Ghost Gate".
There was another person standing next to him, Qiu Shuiqing.
Qiu Shuiqing was even more nervous than Li Muchan about whether the Peacock Feather could be forged.
Li Muchan said, "The Peacock Feather is most likely in the hands of Shangguan Xiaoxian and the others."
As for why he mentioned them, it was because Li Muchan was not sure whether the item was in the hands of Shangguan Xiaoxian or controlled by Shangguan Xianer.
These two sisters are not ordinary women. They are very scheming. Even Li Muchan found it difficult to judge whether the Shangguan Xian'er he saw at the beginning were real or fake. But since the other party was able to use the "Peacock Feather" to lure him, it means that this item should be in the hands of the two women.
This is also what Li Muchan has always been wary of.
He originally thought that Shangguan Xiaoxian would use this item during the battle of Chang'an, but after several dangerous situations, his guess was wrong.
That's why Li Muchan believed that Shangguan Xiaoxian wanted to win and achieve hegemony.
Because she doesn't even care about her own life or death.
In other words, the interests of the Money Gang have taken precedence over her life and death.
And a powerful weapon like the Peacock Feather must be kept for the Jinqian Gang at the critical moment of life and death, or at the final moment of the decisive battle, to reverse the situation and defeat the enemy in one move.
This is the final killer.
"It doesn't matter anymore." Qiu Shuiqing replied lightly, but his tone was trembling and his eyes were full of excitement.
Li Muchan laughed and said, "I heard that your Qiu family's martial arts need to be supplemented with the 'Peacock Feather' to have the power to shake the world and break it?"
Qiu Shuiqing said without hiding anything, "Although this item is the most dangerous hidden weapon in the world, to fully demonstrate its power, it must be combined with the unique skills of my Qiu family. Otherwise, even if others obtain it, at best it will only be a more powerful hidden weapon."
At this point, Qiu Shuiqing's eyes sparkled, his gaze burning as he tried his best to suppress his excitement, "But my Qiu family can transform this thing into a weapon. With the combination of man and weapon, we are invincible."
Just as the two were talking, a hoarse and wild laugh suddenly rang out in the cave.
“Hahaha… I made it… I made it…”
That is the sound of a peacock.
Li Muchan and Qiu Shuiqing looked at each other, turned around and rushed in.
As soon as he entered the cave, Li Muchan felt as if he was in a sea of fire, or as if he had fallen into a furnace. There were rolling heat waves in all directions, as if taking a breath could make his blood boil.
The space inside the cave is not large, but it is filled with many boxes and artifacts. They are all various kinds of fine gold and iron that Li Muchan ordered people to bring back from all over the world, at a huge price.
Not only that, most of the accumulated resources of Peacock Villa were also bet on Peacock.
Peacock was laughing at the moment, but Li Muchan noticed that something was wrong with him. He flicked his sleeves and turned them into a strong wind, which swept him out from the depths of the cave.
But the peacock was overjoyed, holding something in his hand, his hair was burnt and curly, his eyes were bloodshot, his lips were covered with bloodshot, and his face was flushed with a strange red.
Li Muchan frowned, then raised his hand and slowly pushed forward, transferring a soft internal force into the other person's body.
Kong Que was startled for a moment, then gradually came to his senses. He hurriedly grabbed the wine jug from Qiu Shuiqing's waist and drank it all in one gulp. After finishing it in one breath, he smiled and said, "At least I have fulfilled my mission."
He spread out his hands, and the peerless hidden weapon was in his palm.
Qiu Shuiqing's gaze froze, a look of surprise on his face, because the peacock feathers of his Qiu family were obviously golden in color, but the recast peacock feathers were a little special, they were actually purple-gold in color, and more gorgeous and murderous.
"I've modified this thing. The mechanism, spring, and even the hidden weapon hub are all better than before, and more powerful."
After saying this, the man seemed unable to endure the high temperature in the cave any longer. He had been in there for nineteen days and nights. If Li Muchan had not been guarding him and protecting him with his internal strength, he would have died long ago.
He just handed the peacock feather to Li Muchan, and the peacock immediately ran out of the cave and jumped into a large water tank.
"What are you still looking at?" Li Muchan looked at Qiu Shuiqing and said with a smile, "Give it a try."
Qiu Shuiqing swallowed hard, and his outstretched right hand gradually became steady from trembling, while he said solemnly: "Thank you!"
As soon as he got the still warm peacock feather in his hand, Qiu Shuiqing clenched his five fingers, turned around, and leaped to the middle of the cave. He gathered strength with both hands and rose up without any movement. The peacock feather in his hand suddenly blossomed, like a peacock spreading its tail tail, or like hundreds of streams of light and hundreds of suns, dazzling and full of murderous intent.
Li Muchan narrowed his eyes, and the hairs on the back of his hands stood up quietly.
You can see that the trajectories of these streams of light are not the same. Some fly straight and fast, some are curved, and some are winding like snakes, with unpredictable changes.
After the peacock feather blossomed, Qiu Shuiqing seemed to disappear in the flowing light, or turned into a stream of light, and the peacock feather in his hand turned into a weapon.
Li Muchan praised generously: "Not bad... cough cough cough..."
He seemed to have glimpsed the secret of this powerful weapon. Just like the box, which could be transformed into more than a dozen weapons, the Peacock Feather was not much different. Each hidden arrow seemed to have its own special features and could become a killing move. If the hidden arrows were fired at the same time, it would be shocking and heartbreaking.
Moreover, the power of these hidden arrows is extremely amazing. Not only can they penetrate armor, but they can also break the protective true qi of top masters.
Li Muchan's eyes flickered, and he wondered in his heart whether he could break Zhu Si's body.
"How?" he asked.
Qiu Shuiqing said in a deep voice: "Very good."
Li Muchan nodded, "That's good."
But at this moment, the smile on his face froze for no reason, and then he turned around and looked outside the cave, even out of Peacock Villa. His black robe and black hair moved without wind, and the two swords at his waist trembled lightly.
As if realizing something, Li Muchan's eyes suddenly opened wide and he uttered four words one by one.
"Little Li's Flying Dagger!"
