Volume 2: Buddha's Hand Saves All Living Things, Subdues Demons and Attains Bodhi Chapter 99: Disasters in the World
Noon.
In the exquisite hall as white as jade, there are two rows of large chairs neatly arranged, with a total of thirty-eight seats, sitting opposite each other.
There were people sitting on the chairs, at least nine of them were powerful underworld bosses, seven were leaders of factions, ten were well-known leaders in the green forest, and the rest were the leaders and masters of various forces, big and small.
Of course, there are also lone masters who are unrivaled in the world and famous all over the world, namely Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue.
The pavilion is called "Fei Lai Pavilion", which is where Peacock Villa used to entertain guests and discuss matters. It is backed by a cliff, as if it was suspended in mid-air, with rocks and rapids below. The way to enter the pavilion is two suspended iron ropes on the left and right to prevent foreign enemies from eavesdropping and stealing secrets, and they are guarded by strong men.
The emerald green tiles looked like jade in the sunlight. Following the jade-like stone steps at the door, going straight up, one could see a person sitting at the highest seat at the end, the owner of the manor, Qiu Shuiqing.
Qiu Shuiqing was filled with emotion. Ever since the loss of the "Peacock Feather", his Qiu family had not had such a grand occasion for many years, and they did not dare to have one.
But this feeling of being the center of attention, being treated respectfully and regarded as the leader by all kinds of masters is really fascinating.
The Qiu family also had a number of top masters. Decades ago, the owner of Peacock Villa, Qiu Yifeng, had fought against the world's number one master, "Great Thunder God" Jin Kaijia, at the top of Mount Tai. That battle was so stunning that everyone in the world knew about it, and it established the invincible reputation of "Peacock Villa".
Unfortunately, it declined after its peak, and its decline began after that war.
Several girls in colorful clothes nimbly stepped over the iron chain, brought in some tea and snacks, then turned around and floated away like butterflies.
Before they could even sit down, they suddenly saw Guo Ziyu, the chief disciple of Dian Cang Sect, who had changed his clothes, come out with a sad face and said in a sorrowful tone: "I beg Senior Brother Qiu, and all my fellow martial artists, seniors, and uncles to seek justice for Dian Cang!"
"Master Guo, I am sorry for your loss."
"This matter still needs to be considered in the long run. "
…
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's cheeks tightened and they all had different thoughts.
The head of Dian Cang Sect, Taoist Long Xuan, was extraordinary. He had been famous in the martial arts world long before Jing Wuming and Fei Jianke. He relied on his "Dian Cang Quick Sword" to wipe out three gangs and eight strongholds, and defeated countless enemies with his sword. He was a real master of swordsmanship.
Unfortunately , he made too many enemies, which led to the tragic deaths of his wife and children, so he put away his sword and went into seclusion, so his name was never included in the "Weapons List".
Such an old veteran and martial arts master has been defeated, so if they go there they will just be courting death.
Ye Kai ignored everyone's reaction. After all, it was human nature to be afraid of death. He asked, "Did you see clearly what the demon cult leader did?"
Guo Ziyu nodded hurriedly, his face pale, and trembling, he said: "I saw clearly, that man used a curved knife, and with just one blow, he killed several elders, and even my master's sword was broken and seriously injured, and then he was... cut in half..."
Someone asked, "Do you still remember the moves?"
Guo Ziyu had a sad look in his eyes. He suddenly took off his outer robe and turned around to show his back.
As soon as he turned around, everyone present widened their eyes, some screamed in surprise, some stood up suddenly, and some were in a trance for a moment, their right hand trembled, and they knocked over the teacup.
Ye Kai was also moved: "Good sword, good swordsmanship."
Looking closely, there was a mark on the man's back, or to be more precise, a cut.
But the cut only broke Guo Ziyu's skin and flesh, and did not kill him. The cut was as thin as a hair. What was even more strange was that the cut was made along the midline of his spine and between his flesh.
You should know that most of the sword and knife techniques in the world are aimed at targeting vital points, flaws and weaknesses.
But this one knife strike is enough to show that the person using the knife is no longer bound by moves, and his knife skills have reached a level that is free and unprecedented.
To kill the enemy with one blow and stab a person's fatal point is difficult enough, but it can be done as long as you are fast and accurate enough; but to kill someone with one blow, it is not just about speed and accuracy, but also requires control of strength, angle, timing, and reaction, and all of this must be in an unprecedented harmony.
In other words, no one can avoid this knife. If it hits, even ghosts and gods will be worried. It is an indestructible, powerful and sharp knife.
This is beyond the scope of swordsmanship.
At least there are ways to disassemble and break sword techniques and sword moves. However, this sword has no moves or styles and returns to its original simplicity. It is almost a perfect sword, without any flaws and perfect.
Qiu Shuiqing was also shocked: "It seems that person let you back on purpose."
Fu Hongxue, who had been sitting quietly, suddenly fixed his eyes and said coldly: "That man didn't draw his sword, so you are not worthy of him drawing his sword. This is just his casual sword energy. He deliberately asked you to bring this sword back."
When he said this, Guo Ziyu was stunned, and then staggered forward a few steps in despair, covering his face and crying, "I am useless, it is my disciple who is useless."
Ye Kai sighed and said, "Yes, he wanted to show his sword to the heroes of the Central Plains. This sword is truly unprecedented in history. I can't imagine who can wield this sword."
"I vaguely remember... the 'Bai Family Divine Sword' was also feared by gods and ghosts in the past."
Suddenly, someone among the crowd gave a meaningful compliment.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's faces turned uncomfortable.
The reason for this is that Bai Tianyu defeated the "Ruyi Tianmo, Lianhuan Bashi" of the Demon Cult leader with the "Bai Family Magic Sword" and later formed an evil relationship with the Demon Cult's Princess Hua Baifeng, which led to the theft of the "Bai Family Sword Skills". Now this "unparalleled magic sword" is pointing to the Central Plains, and Bai Tianyu's two sons are all present, which inevitably attracts complaints from others.
Fu Hongxue remained unmoved and said, "This knife move does have some traces of the Bai family's swordsmanship."
"Just because a swordsman is invincible doesn't mean he is invincible," Ye Kai was a playboy, so he didn't care. "You're worrying too early."
But at this moment, a servant from Peacock Villa suddenly walked in hurriedly from outside the door: "Master, something bad has happened."
As soon as this man came in, seven figures followed him in. As soon as they entered the room, they all bowed to Qiu Shuiqing and saluted, and then told him some incredible news.
"Seven days ago, the head of Emei, Master Kuzhu, was killed by the chief elder of the Demon Sect on the Golden Summit."
"Three days later, the leaders of the Qingcheng, Huashan, and Kongtong sects gathered in Chang'an and were attacked at the same time. After a fierce battle, they were fortunately rescued by the help of the 'Divine Sword Villa' and were able to escape the disaster."
"Two days ago, the Shaolin abbot was killed by a palm strike in the 'Kongxiang Temple'."
"Yesterday, the Great Elder of the Demon Cult encountered Sun Wuer, the successor of the 'Heavenly Secret Stick'. They fought fiercely for 67 moves in the Yellow River waterway. Afterwards, Sun Wuer retreated far away, apparently defeated."
"Yesterday, the third young master of Shenjian Villa, Xie Xiaofeng, broke through the barrier and headed north."
…
These pieces of news made everyone stunned and tremble all over.
"Damn it, this is too much!"
"Do you really think there is no one in my Central Plains?"
…
Before they finished listening, a group of people were filled with righteous indignation and stood up, turning their heads to look at Qiu Shuiqing.
"Please ask Master Qiu to bring out the Peacock Feather to uphold justice for the Central Plains martial arts community!"
"That's right. Killing the Great Elder of the Demon Cult is equivalent to cutting off the arm of the Demon Cult leader. Master Qiu must not refuse."
…
There was an immediate uproar in the hall.
Ye Kai looked at the messengers and sighed softly, "Do you have anything else to say?"
The panicked and anxious eyes of the seven people suddenly turned sinister and they laughed strangely: "The descendant of Xiao Li Feidao is really powerful. The elder specially asked us to bring a great gift to you. You guys take it."
Before the words were finished, the faces of the seven people had turned red, and the tendons and blood vessels in their bodies expanded and emerged, trembling constantly, making their entire faces distorted and hideous, like evil spirits.
"Ah, be careful, they are demons from the Demon Cult."
All the martial arts masters present changed their expressions and were ready to make a move.
Ye Kai hurriedly stopped him and said, "This is the Devil's Blood Technique. They are all poisonous people. Their blood is extremely poisonous. Don't get involved with it."
Fu Hongxue on the side had already stood up and left his seat. He moved very quickly, raised his hands and rubbed and pressed the chests of the three men, sealing their meridians.
When everyone heard this, they quickly put away their swords and knives, and followed suit: "Seal their acupuncture points."
But just when the scene was in chaos, Guo Ziyu, who was lying on the ground, suddenly stood up, his eyes were fierce and fierce, his hands were clenched tightly, and the blood vessels in his chest exploded, and suddenly thousands of blood spots shot out in all directions like rain.
"Haha, all of you, just die."
This person turned out to be fake.
Ye Kai and Fu Hongxue also had stiff expressions.
"Retreat quickly!"
The crowd suddenly became flustered, and retreated in panic.
The seven people who delivered the message also exploded at this moment, with blood and flesh splattering everywhere.
Seeing that the blood spots were as dense as rain and there was no escape, and everyone was about to die from the poisonous blood, suddenly several figures flashed out from the crowd, and they raised their hands and pulled open a huge black cloth, which covered all the poisonous blood like a sky curtain and blocked it.
Qiu Shuiqing had been sitting in the upper seat the whole time. He was not surprised at all. Instead, his eyes were shining. He then stood up and said sternly, "The Demon Cult has gone too far in bullying people. Since this is the case, I, Peacock Villa, cannot just sit back and watch. I have decided to invite heroes from all over the world to discuss the matter of defeating the demons. We will form an alliance and gather together to wipe out the demons."
The group of people were still in shock, but after hearing Qiu Shuiqing's words, they felt their blood boiling and responded one after another.
"Well said!"
"Peacock Villa is indeed worthy of being the leader in the white world."
"Since we are forming an alliance, there should be a leader."
"Master Qiu is both wise and brave. If you hadn't taken precautions today, we would have been dead. The position of leader must belong to you."
…
And in a secluded courtyard not far from "Fei Lai Pavilion".
Li Muchan was sitting under a paulownia tree, playing chess with Peacock.
Listening to the noise, Peacock said in disbelief, "It actually worked?"
Li Muchan sat lazily, his complexion had recovered a little. He did not respond, but said gently: "The disaster is approaching. The world is like a chess game. One move can determine the fate of eternity!"
