Volume 2: A sudden change in the prison, a red-clothed man goes out to find a thief Chapter 168: Flying Knife and Flying Knife
The clouds and mist between the mountains and forests dissipated, allowing the sun to shine through without obstruction and the sky to become bright.
There was silence on the parade ground. Seeing that no one responded for a long time, Li Si put his hands behind his back as if he was a little tired and continued speaking.
"In that case, I hope you will give me some face and let me take this girl away."
"Li Si." At this time, Master Huanyi, who was standing in front of everyone, shouted again.
"Are you going to protect the Demon Cult?"
She looked really ferocious at this moment, with her teeth gnashing and hair disheveled.
"I never said that I would protect the Demon Cult." Li Si glanced at Huan Yi indifferently, then turned his head to look at Bai Yaoer behind him.
"I just want to keep her safe."
As a nobody in the underworld, he couldn't do anything big, but at least he would never stand idly by when his friends were in trouble.
Huan Yi paused for a moment, then looked at Li Si deeply, as if he was weighing the gains and losses.
She had to admit that in some ways, she admired this man, but it was also difficult for her to make concessions in this matter, because it was about the hatred between the sects and the stability of the martial arts world.
It should have been a while before Huan Yi exhaled the foul air in his chest, as if he had calmed down, and spoke to Li Si in a deep voice.
"Have this girl hand over He Lang's secret book and destroy it. Then she must give up her martial arts skills and promise not to pass them on to others. We will let her go immediately and will not harm her life."
At the end, she added: "If you are worried that she will have trouble finding a place in the martial arts world in the future, I can accept her as my disciple as compensation."
This was the biggest concession she could make.
But even so, Li Si did not give way. He just turned his head, looked at the remaining people in the arena, and asked.
"So, what do you think?"
Most of the people in the field had uncertain expressions, and were obviously caught in a dilemma.
In fact, at this moment, the people in the world can be roughly divided into three types.
The first group has a clear purpose. They know that they came here only to wipe out the Demon Cult and do not intend to involve irrelevant people, so they do not mind letting Bai Yaoer leave.
One kind is full of hatred, because their disciples, masters, or relatives had died in the turmoil of the Demon Cult. So for them , they absolutely do not want any remnants of the Demon Cult to remain in this world, including He Lang's martial arts.
The last type is the fearful ones. They have seen the Demon Cult in the past and participated in the war in person, so they are still frightened. They don't want to see the scene of the past again, so they don't want to leave any trouble. In their opinion, the Demon Cult must be eradicated.
So after these three types of people experienced a period of silence, someone finally spoke.
"Li Si, what Master Huanyi said makes sense. We in the martial arts world owe this girl a debt. Today, she must give up her martial arts skills."
Almost everyone present knew how terrifying He Lang's martial arts were.
He was able to fight against forty-two famous masters on his own, and finally killed twenty-eight of them before dying of exhaustion.
This kind of martial arts that goes against the will of heaven should not exist in this world. They don't know Bai Yaoer, and they can't be sure that she will never go astray in the future, so they can't take the risk.
It seems that most people are afraid of and hate the Demon Cult. But there is nothing that can be done about it. After all, the scars that the Demon Cult left on the martial arts world were too deep.
"Huh." Li Si sighed softly, shook his head and said to everyone.
"In this case, I can't let go."
"Then please forgive me for the offense!"
As soon as the words came out, a Taoist priest leaped into the air from the crowd.
The long sword in his hand hummed, and he put it in front of him. Then he stabbed out with the sword, and his body moved with the sword, forcing his way into Li Si's arms.
This person is Taoist Zhen Yu from Wudang Mountain. He is of the same generation as Taoist Hutu Zhen Qing and is the third disciple of Wudang Sect. Although his swordsmanship is not the most superb, his internal energy is the most profound.
When the sword was thrust down, there were gusts of powerful energy and sounds of wind, which was completely different from the sword that Master Huan Yi had thrust out casually.
Li Si is in trouble. This was the thought that popped up in everyone's mind at the same time.
But watching the sword falling, Li Si just closed his eyes helplessly. Then he turned his body to avoid the sword and raised his hand to point at Zhen Yu's wrist.
“Dang!”
The long sword fell to the ground with a sound, and Li Si turned around and pushed his palm lightly on Zhenyu's chest.
There was no sound of wind, nor any surging internal energy.
Zhen Yu was just casually pushed back into the crowd. When everyone supported him, they saw him holding his chest and looking at Li Si not far away in disbelief.
He had no chance to resist the blow just now.
He inexplicably had a feeling that the people in the martial arts world might never know how profound Li Si's martial arts skills were.
"I have a long history with your Wudang Mountain. Please don't make things difficult for me."
After glancing at Zhen Yu who was being supported by everyone, Li Si continued to look at the crowd and spoke weakly.
"Is there anyone who wants to try with me again? Li Si has accepted all the requests today."
What a concept it is to beat back a famous master with just one palm strike. To put it in some horrifying terms, it almost reminds people of He Lang back then.
And now, Li Si is even still sick.
What if he wasn't sick, what could he do?
Thinking of this, some people in the martial arts world swallowed unconsciously.
Li Si always gives people a feeling of being unreliable, so people always forget the fact that he is a top master.
But when people think about it carefully, they will find that this person seems to have never been defeated since he came out of the mountains.
Even now that he is sick, it is still the same.
He has never been defeated in his life, so no one even knows where his bottom line is.
…
"He is ill after all. He won't last long. Let's go together."
A loud shout came from somewhere, and three figures jumped up from the crowd. They drew their long swords and chopped straight at Li Si's shoulders.
This time, Li Si didn't show any mercy and kicked them all out. Before people could even see their appearance clearly, they had already fallen outside the mountain gate and fell into a cloud of dust.
"Cough cough." Li Si fell back to the ground and coughed twice. Just now, he used some light skills.
"Is there anyone else coming?" Li Si looked up and asked, but no one answered.
One move after another, so far, no one can withstand one of Li Si's moves.
Li Si's martial arts skills are truly unfathomable.
In the Wudang Mountain team, Zhang Changchen looked at the somewhat sickly figure under the altar and frowned slightly.
He was ready to take action himself, otherwise, today's incident would be difficult to resolve. However, he tried his best to hold back, because he still admired Li Si, and he heard that this person had a very good relationship with Zhen Qing.
I don't know what disease he has. Maybe I can help him once in the future, as a way to repay my debt today.
Thinking of this, Zhang Changchen shook his head and prepared to step forward.
But at this time, a voice spoke first.
"Then let me try it too."
Then, a figure walked out of the crowd.
Li Si glanced over and was stunned for a moment, because the person who walked up was Tang Chong.
He dropped his hands to his sides and walked silently to Li Si.
He came to take Li Si away because he knew that Li Si's body could not hold on for much longer. If the stalemate continued, he would definitely be seriously injured due to lack of strength.
It would be better to let him do it, at least he will show mercy.
"Hehe." Looking at Tang Zhong, Li Si smiled softly, nodded and said.
"Okay, let's try it then."
After saying that, he slowly put his hand into his arms.
This was the first time he prepared to compete with Tang Zhong in hidden weapon skills, and he had no idea who was stronger.
But there will always be a result, right?
Tang Zhong also took a deep breath and gently moved his wrist.
Li Si's hidden weapon is definitely not weak, but how does it compare to Tang Chong, who is the best in the world?
The martial artists on both sides looked at them with bated breath. Obviously, no one knew what the outcome would be.
Bai Yaoer on the altar had already silently put out his sword.
