Volume 1: The Swordsman of the East Chapter 37 Siege
Liu Zhengfeng was shocked and used his luck without hesitation.
"boom!"
The terrifying cold air exploded, causing Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang to step back several steps, spitting blood from their mouths.
Zuo Lengchan's current martial arts skills are considered to be among the rare top masters in the martial arts world, comparable to Ren Tianxing. He is simply not someone that Liu Zhengfeng and Qu Yang can contend with.
Especially at this time, Qu Yang had used up most of his inner energy in order to save Linghu Chong, and had not yet recovered, so it was impossible for him to be a match for Zuo Lengchan.
Even Shangguan Haitang and Duan Tianya at this moment did not dare to say that they would win, and they even had no reason to take action.
What's more, Monk Fang Wen and Taoist Master Chongxu were there to help. Even if they wanted to rescue him, they couldn't do it.
"die!"
Zuo Lengchan shouted coldly, his figure flashed, and he rushed towards the two again.
Suddenly, just as Zuo Lengchan flew up and was about to approach Qu Yang, a slight sound of breaking through the air suddenly rang out.
“Swoosh…”
The sound is subtle, but extremely fast.
It was a thousand meters away in the last moment, and right in front of you in the next moment.
Even Zuo Lengchan felt a fatal crisis in his heart at this moment.
But he was in mid-air and it was too late to dodge.
"Amitabha!"
Fang Wen chanted the Buddha's name and palm power gushed out, covering a large area and just hitting the hidden weapon that came through the air.
"Ding!"
With a slight sound, the hidden weapon deviated slightly from its trajectory and sank straight into the bronze tripod beside it. Then it penetrated through and went straight into the ground, leaving a small charred hole that was bottomless.
"What a powerful force!"
Seeing this scene, Zuo Lengchan's heart was pounding. If Monk Fang Wen had not taken action, he would have been killed by this hidden weapon.
Just when everyone was shocked, a voice seemed to come from the sky.
"Who gave you the courage to surround and kill our sect's guardian?"
As soon as the voice sounded, everyone saw a figure appear in the air. He was dressed in a green shirt, with flying hair, and left a long phantom in the void.
It was a thousand meters away one moment, and in front of everyone the next.
It was like teleportation, so fast that it was terrifying.
The man was dressed in a green robe, with his hair casually tied behind his head. His face was as white as jade and his beauty attracted the attention of all the martial artists present.
When some young people saw this figure, regardless of gender, they were stunned, as if they had seen a fairy.
"What a nice view!"
"So beautiful!"
"There is such a handsome man in the world!"
“…”
Bursts of murmurs mixed with the inexplicable sound of swallowing saliva came one after another.
The killing power is so great that men seem to see a peerless beauty and women seem to see a peerless handsome man. It is simply destructive.
It is obviously men's clothing, but it makes people unable to control themselves, as if it has some kind of strange magic.
Even Shangguan Haitang, who thought she had an extraordinary appearance, felt ashamed of herself when facing the person in front of her.
Duan Tianya, as the number one spy, was also slightly dazed at this moment.
So beautiful, not like an ordinary person at all.
If favorability could be displayed, I’m afraid everyone would see the words “Favorability +1+1+1+1” above their heads.
Just as everyone was silent at this beautiful scene, an angry voice suddenly rang out.
"The East... is undefeated!"
"Master!"
Zuo Lengchan and Qu Yang spoke at the same time.
One person's voice was extremely angry, while the other's voice suddenly relaxed, as if he had let go of his worries.
When they heard the two voices, everyone in the place was shocked.
"He... is Dongfang Bubai?"
"Hiss! She is indeed the most beautiful woman in the world!"
"Dongfang Bubai actually looks like this!"
“…”
Exclamations rang out one after another.
It was totally unbelievable that the handsome man in front of him, who looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, was actually the legendary Dongfang Bubai.
Even the people who besieged Black Wood Cliff five years ago could not compare the Dongfang Bubei of that time with the Dongfang Bubai of today.
Although their appearances are roughly similar, the Dongfang Bubai in front of him is so beautiful, like a fairy who is not of this world.
It is estimated that everyone present will never forget this scene until their death.
However, Dongfang Qing was a little depressed at this moment because things changed too quickly.
Even he did not expect that the imperial court would interfere in the affairs of the martial arts world, and it still tried its best to protect Liu Zhengfeng, making it completely impossible to see through the imperial court's purpose.
So much so that he had no way to ensure that the retirement conference went smoothly.
"So you are Dongfang Bubai. It's true that hearing about someone is worse than meeting them in person. I am Shangguan Haitang!"
Shangguan Haitang spoke with a clear and gentle voice, and her eyes were full of affection. Beautiful things, regardless of gender, are the most beloved things.
The corner of his eyes was constantly observing Dongfang Bubai's chest and neck.
Listening to Dongfang Bubai's voice, it was cold and noble, with both the magnetism of a man and the crispness of a woman. It was like a deep spring, quiet and mysterious. Even she could not tell the difference between a man and a woman.
Only the chest and neck could be observed.
It’s a pity that Dongfang Bubai’s Adam’s apple is not obvious and it is difficult to see from the distance.
The only difference is Dongfang Bubai’s chest, which is ordinary.
Dongfang Qing naturally felt the attention and admiration of countless eyes.
He didn't take it seriously. He looked at Shangguan Haitang and chuckled, "More than 20 years ago, Tiedan Shenhou entered the martial arts world and killed 108 masters from the eight major sects by himself, causing many sects to decline or be wiped out!"
"Now that Tiedan Shenhou has intervened in the affairs of the martial arts world again, is he planning to repeat what happened back then, or is he planning to unify the martial arts world?"
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole place suddenly became noisy.
"What? The Yandang Sect was wiped out 25 years ago, and it was actually done by Shen Hou?"
"How could it be? Wasn't it the undefeated boy Gu Santong who caused the decline of the Kongtong Sect?"
"The Emei sect was almost wiped out, and it was actually done by Tiedan Shenhou?"
"The Tomb Clan was wiped out..."
“…”
There were many discussions one after another, and even Shangguan Haitang and Duan Tianya changed their expressions.
They were only ordered to read the imperial edict and use the power of Liu Zhengfeng's Hengshan Sect to split the Five Mountains Sword Sect. It would be best to put a damper on Zuo Lengchan's prestige, give him a warning, and strike at the forces of the martial arts world.
Its purpose, in the words of Shen Hou, is naturally to suppress the martial arts sects and eliminate the influence of martial arts forces on ordinary people.
They never expected that Dongfang Bubai would speak like this, directly putting them on the fire and standing on the opposite side of the martial arts world.
To the extent that he is regarded as an enemy by all the martial arts circles and sects.
"What nonsense! What happened 25 years ago was done by Gu Santong, who was imprisoned in the dungeon for more than 20 years and was punished. He died a year ago. It is impossible that this was done by my adoptive father!"
Duan Tianya retorted bluntly with a righteous look on his face and a hint of anger in his voice, as if he was trying to stand up for his adoptive father.
The same was true for Shangguan Haitang who was standing next to her. The palm of her hand holding the sword had turned white.
There was no way they could believe that the loyal and courageous Iron-hearted Divine Prince would massacre the eight major sects.
Dongfang Qing did not argue but smiled slightly, but secretly guessed Tiedan Shenhou's purpose in his heart.
Saving Liu Zhengfeng was considered a blow to Zuo Lengchan and, to a certain extent, had a great impact on the merger of the Five Mountains Sword Sects.
After all, if the leader loses his deterrent power, then the other factions will naturally not obey the leader's orders blindly.
"To reshape the trend of Heaven's Way, does that mean Liu Zhengfeng has to retire again?" Dongfang Qing shook his head. This was simply impossible.
But for a moment he didn't know what to do, and he became more and more upset.
"Are we going to the capital to kill the Iron-hearted Divine Prince?"
This was the only feasible solution that came to his mind.
After all, once the mission fails, one will lose his destiny and be abandoned by the world of heaven, and death is only a matter of time.
Just as Dongfang Qing was thinking, Zuo Lengchan, Monk Fang Wen, and Taoist Chongxu nodded slightly and took a step forward.
"Dongfang Bubai, today the five major sword sects, including Wudang and Shaolin, are all here, as well as people from the imperial court. You are doomed, so why don't you surrender!"
Zuo Lengchan suddenly shouted, and his figure flashed, instantly blocking Dongfang Bubai's retreat.
Although things were different from his plan, if he could use Dongfang Bubai's hand to kill a few sect leaders, the merger of the Five Mountains would definitely be accelerated.
Even if he cannot be killed, the five major sword sects must be made to feel the power of Dongfang Bubai, and force the five major sword sects to merge under the pretext of fighting against Dongfang Bubai.
It would be even better if Dongfang Bubai was killed, as the effect of establishing authority would be many times better than killing Qu Yang and Liu Zhengfeng.
After all, Dongfang Bubai is known as the best master in the world.
When the others heard this, they reacted instantly. Now there was only one Dongfang Bubai and a half-crippled Qu Yang. It was definitely a good time to kill Dongfang Bubai.
Thinking of this, everyone spoke up almost at the same time, "My fellow Taoists, Dongfang Bubai is the leader of the Demon Cult. Today is the perfect time to eliminate the demons and defend the Tao!"
"Sir Shangguan, please help me to eliminate the demons and defend the way!"
"Amitabha, it is the duty of Shaolin to eliminate demons and defend the Way!"
"The Wudang Sect must do its best to eradicate the evil sect!"
“…”
In just a blink of an eye, the leaders of the five major sword sects, Shaolin Fang Wen, Wudang Chongxu, all came out and surrounded all of Dongfang Qing's retreat routes.
"Master, please leave!"
Qu Yang quickly stood up and looked at everyone warily with an anxious look on his face.
The five major sword sects, plus Wudang, Shaolin, and two people from the imperial court, are almost all the top masters in the world.
No matter how powerful Dongfang Bubai is, he can never match everyone.
If you are not careful, you might end up in trouble.
"Heh!" Dongfang Bubai shook his head and chuckled. He raised his hand and grabbed Qu Yang's shoulder. He exhaled some true Qi from his palm and pushed Qu Yang out of the crowd in an instant.
Then he looked at everyone without caring and said, "Just you guys?"
