Volume 12 Seven Weapons: Jade Knife Chapter 315 Three Masters
Gong Jiu.
The cold young man just stood straight in the hall, neither sitting down, nor bowing, nor speaking.
Su Weiyun knew this person.
Even if he doesn't know about the "Overlord Spear", the "Jade Knife" or the " Meteor Butterfly Sword ", he should at least know this person.
This person appeared in Lu Xiaofeng's era, and he may be the most terrifying enemy Lu Xiaofeng has ever encountered.
His terrifying power is not only reflected in his martial arts, but more in his character.
——Some people say that he was made of nine things: the fluid of a poisonous snake, the heart of a fox, the ice and snow in the North Sea, the rocks on the Tianshan Mountains, the bravery of a lion, the cruelty of a jackal, the patience of a camel, the wisdom of a human, and a ghost from the eighteen levels of hell.
So his name is Gong Jiu.
Hua Yelai spoke for him: "My Ninth Young Master was one of the people seeking marriage this time. Please, Mr. Zhu, marry your daughter to our Ninth Young Master."
She was not a person who spoke rudely or directly, but this time she spoke directly to the point without beating around the bush.
Zhu Kuan didn't know how to respond, but Duan Feixiong said coldly, "Mr. Zhu's daughter has already been engaged to my son, so you should go back to where you came from."
Hua Yelai laughed and said, "Oh? Really? As the Ninth Prince and the Crown Prince of Taiping, can't you afford a wedding banquet at Baozhu Villa?"
Prince Taiping.
All the guests in the audience gasped. Although most people in the martial arts world looked down on the court officials, it was impossible for them to not give face to a prince, and it was even more impossible for them to let others go back home.
Zhu Kuan smiled and said, "Come here, quickly set up a seat for the Ninth Young Master."
"Need not."
Gong Jiu suddenly squeezed out two words stiffly from his mouth.
Hua Yelai's smile froze a little, and she turned to look at Gong Jiu, as if asking him what he meant.
Gong Jiu said again in a tough voice: "I am here for only three things, and I will go back to practice after I am done."
Hua Yelai smiled and said, "Then let's do the first thing first."
Gong Jiu said: "Okay. Come here."
He said this to the people behind him. Only then did people realize that there were three people standing behind Gong Jiu.
These three people were dressed in strange clothes and had different temperaments. They should have attracted attention wherever they went, but behind Gong Jiu, no one noticed them for a moment.
Upon hearing this, the three men stepped forward and saluted one by one.
The first person was dressed in gorgeous clothes, an official hat on his head, and official shoes on his feet. There was a pair of flying geese embroidered on his clothes, which were lifelike and very exquisite.
"Meet the Lion King."
The man clasped his hands and bowed deeply with a very solemn expression.
This man was the Minister He who followed the old man and whom Su Weiyun had seen in Langshan. It was he who returned the Xiaoxiang Sword to Su Weiyun.
Minister He stood up and said, "My last name is He, and you can call me Minister He, King Lion. As for the two people beside me... well... they don't have the emperor's order, they are just ordinary people, so it's better not to talk about them."
When he spoke, he used an official tone with an air of arrogance and looked down on others, yet his expression was very serious, which made the bystanders around him want to laugh but couldn't.
At this time, the second person also spoke. He looked very young, also a teenager. What was interesting was that he already had a tuft of mustache around his mouth.
"Although I don't need to introduce my name, I think you can show off your martial arts skills, right?"
Minister He said, "Of course you can."
The man with the mustache walked up to Duan Yu, patted the table in front of him, and said with a smile: "Little brother, I heard that you are the Duan Yu who saw through Hua Yelai's plan earlier?"
Duan Yu nodded.
The mustache said, "Okay."
Then he said nothing and walked back to where he came from.
The onlookers were completely confused, not knowing what kind of martial arts the man with a mustache had shown off.
Bang!
Suddenly, a clear voice was heard, breaking the silence in the hall.
Everyone looked and saw that the plate in front of Duan Yu suddenly fell and broke on the ground.
Looking more closely, I saw that a large piece of the table top where the plates were placed had inexplicably sunk in, forming an exact imprint of a five-fingered hand.
A light breeze blew into the hall, causing wood chips to fly everywhere, and all the food and wine on the table were ruined.
"Bone-dissolving palm!"
People with insight called out the martial arts that the man with a mustache had just used. This martial art had not appeared in the martial arts world since the Bone-Transforming Immortal retired.
Everyone looked at the mustache man with a different look.
Zhu Kuan frowned and said, "Change all the dishes on the table."
"What a pity, such a delicious dish. Who knows that every grain of rice on the plate is the product of hard work!"
The third person was the one who spoke. He looked a little old, with white hair tied up with a square scarf and dressed in scholar's clothes, like an old pedant.
"I just noticed that the braised fish on the far left was not stained by sawdust, so there is no need to change it. I will cut a piece off and please enjoy it slowly, Lion King Su."
He suddenly stretched out his skinny and sallow right hand, with nails more than an inch long on his fingers.
With a flick of the fingertips, the nails suddenly stood up, crystal clear, hard white, and shining, just like the blade of a knife.
laugh!
A gust of wind was drawn by a finger, and a plate of braised fish was cut open with a slight sound, revealing the white and tender fresh fish meat inside.
Not only was the fish meat cut into pieces, but the plate underneath was also shattered.
Zhu Kuan was moved and asked, "Could this be the legendary finger knife skill that is as famous as the 'Finger Magic'?"
The old scholar smiled and said, "Master, you have good eyesight."
Zhu Kuan looked a little serious, and said, "Since you three are all peerless masters, why don't you sit down and eat fish together?"
Minister He said, "How can the Minister dare to sit down if the Crown Prince doesn't take a seat?"
Zhu Kuan looked at Gong Jiu again and asked gently, "Why don't you sit down, Prince?"
Gong Jiu said: "I only came here to do three things, and sitting is not one of them!"
He looked around the lobby again, scanning everyone with his cold eyes, as if he wanted to remember every face in his heart.
Then, Gong Jiu asked loudly: "Who is Su Weiyun?"
Su Weiyun had been staring at the five-finger palm print and the plate of fish on the table. When she heard these words, she suddenly looked at him.
In an instant, Gong Jiu seemed to have noticed Su Weiyun's moving eyes, and looked at Su Weiyun almost at the same time.
The two people's eyes crossed in the air, like two sharp swords clashing, the ice melted and the water burst, with cold light emitting in all directions!
"I am."
"Are you really Su Weiyun? Su from Suhang, Wei from Weiwei, and Yun from Baiyun?"
"Not a single word wrong."
"If you tell a lie, you will die."
"My name is not false. Besides, you can't kill me."
Gong Jiu did not argue, but just said: "Okay, Master asked me to give you three people and a secret book."
He suddenly raised his hand and an ancient yellow book woven with gold thread flew up from his hand, slowly flying in the air, as if it was held by an invisible pair of hands below.
Finally, the secret book fell lightly in front of Su Weiyun.
Gong Jiulu's superb internal strength was much more shocking than the "Bone-Dissolving Palm" and "Finger Knife" just now!
Before others could see what the secret book was, Su Weiyun waved his sleeves lightly, and the ancient yellow book was put into his sleeves.
Su Weiyun said calmly: "I have accepted the secret book, and the three of you have already met. What else do you want?"
Gong Jiu said: "There is a second matter, which is also related to you."
"What's up?"
Gong Jiu suddenly said seriously: "Master ordered me to fight you!"
