Chapter 440: Zhao Min’s Gift

Zhou Zhiruo was immediately furious, and with a flick of her wrist, a long black whip flew out of her sleeve and struck at Guo Fu. 

Huang Rong was shocked. She didn’t expect that Zhou Zhiruo would suddenly attack and quickly used the Dog Beating Staff method to stop the whip.

However, Zhou Zhiruo was well prepared. The whip turned around and easily avoided the interception of the Dog Beating Staff, then shattered a beaded flower on Guo Fu’s hair bun.

Zhou Zhiruo quickly put the long whip back into her sleeve and said proudly, “Our Emei Sect has a plethora of martial arts techniques, how can we covet the martial arts of other sects? Little girl, please don’t confuse the masses with your ignorance.”

Guo Fu’s pink face turned pale with fright. She was completely dumbfounded and didn’t know how to respond.

Huang Rong was naturally very protective of her daughter. So when she saw Zhou Zhiruo attacking her daughter, she was furious. If it came down to it, she would not hesitate to fall out with the Emei Sect, and fight Zhou Zhiruo to the death. 

However, it turned out that Zhou Zhiruo was very measured in her actions and did not really intend to hurt Guo Fu, so her anger quickly dissipated.

Guo Fu finally came to her senses, and when she was about to curse, a fairy-like voice was heard.

“What happened here? Why is it so lively?”

The group of people turned around and saw a bright and beautiful young woman looking at this side with a smile. She was accompanied by several powerful subordinates, who were vigilantly on guard.

Huang Rong recognized that one of them was Monk Jinlun, and couldn’t help but secretly smacked her lips. 

‘This enchantress is quite impressive. Even a master like Monk Jinlun is standing obediently behind her.’

“It turns out that the Princess have arrived. Could it be that Mongolia has also sent its experts to attend the Golden Serpent Conference?” After years of fighting with Mongolia in Xiangyang, Huang Rong naturally had no good impression of the Mongolians, and her words were full of enmity.

As expected, the surrounding martial artists began to whisper among themselves. 

The Golden Serpent Camp had always been a rebel force fighting against the foreign invaders. If they were taken over by a master supported by Mongolia, the Central Plains martial arts community would be completely embarrassed.

Zhao Min was calm and asked with a smile, “Didn’t Madame Guo also come to participate in this conference? Is it possible that some of the sixteen candidates are supported by Madame Guo?” 

“Of course…” Huang Rong pursed her lips and smiled. Then changing the topic and continued, “As long as we can drive out the invaders, no matter who wins, I will support him from the bottom of my heart.” 

As soon as Huang Rong finished speaking, a group of martial artists applauded.

“Invaders, get out of the Central Plains!”

“Ki1l all the invaders!”

This made Xiao Feng, who was standing next to Huang Rong, extremely embarrassed. Considering his identity as a Khitan, he was also a invader in the eyes of the Han people.

“Madame Guo is indeed very eloquent.” Zhao Min was not angry at all and had no interest in talking to her. 

In Zhao Min’s opinion, Huang Rong was indeed very smart, but because of her clouded vision, her intelligence was quite limited, so she was still far from the state of controlling the wind and cloud with the turn of her hand. Otherwise, Xiangyang City wouldn’t struggle without any progress even after so many years.

“Witch, give back the life of my junior brother Kongxing!” Suddenly a loud shout rang out, and a great monk covered in golden light volleyed towards Zhao Min.

Song Qingshu recognized that the person who made the move was Xuancheng, one of the Thirteen Masters of the Shaolin Temple. Remembering that Zhao Min was injured under his Vajra Palm last time, Song Qingshu subconsciously stood up to block it for her.

But suddenly Song Qingshu’s eyes narrowed. He noticed that Zhao Min’s hand behind her back was waving towards him covertly, signaling him not to act rashly.

Song Qingshu instantly understood that it was better not to expose his relationship with her.

There is a reason why Zhao Min was so confident. The last time she was captured because Song Qingshu had intervened. But now, she had three master-level martial artists such as Monk Jinlun, Taoist Baishang, and Master of the Vajra Sect, as well as the two Xuanming Elders. Additionally, with the long range offense of the Divine Arrow Eight Heroes and the others, no one would dare to attack her in this place.

However, Xuancheng broke through Zhao Min’s carefully selected warrior guard group with overwhelming force. The densely packed arrows of the Divine Arrow Eight Heroes hit him, leaving only a few white marks, but did not stop him at all.

“The Indestructible Vajra Body?” The Master of the Vajra Sect was delighted to see the Vajra in work. With a bang, his whole body turned golden, and he also used the Indestructible Vajra Body to greet him.

Their fists shot forward like lightning, and in the blink of an eye the two of them exchanged dozens of moves. 

Xuancheng sometimes used the Great Vajra Fist, then turned it into the Prajna Palm. His mastery of the techniques were quite impressive. 

When the two figures separated, the figure of the Master of the Vajra Sect stayed in place and swayed, obviously suffering a small loss. However, he still managed to exhaust majority of Xuancheng’s power and momentum.

Monk Jinlun took the opportunity to block in front of him. In an instant, the six giant wheels flew out and hit the major points of Xuancheng’s body from all directions.

Xuancheng had fought the Master of the Vajra Sect for more than a dozen moves, and his breathing was already quite hurried. So he didn’t dare to use his body to forcefully block several rapidly rotating sharp wheels. He quickly punched left and right to block, knocking the six giant wheels away one by one.

All the experts present were dazzled by the sight. 

Xuancheng first flicked away the Tin Wheel coming from behind with his Great Strength Vajra Finger, then used his fingers to grab the Lead Wheel that was about to cut into his skin, and flicked it back. He hit the Iron Wheel which had attacked from behind him using the Divine Vajra Palm. Then he raised one of his feet and firmly stepped on the Copper Wheel that was cutting towards his hamstring using the Shadow-following Kick technique of Shaolin Temple.

After that, he used the Skanda’s Evil Subduing Palm to deflect the Silver Wheel flying from the upper right. Finally, he forced the Indestructible Vajra Body  and used his Dragon Claw Technique to directly grab the Gold Wheel in the hand of the Monk Jinlun.

There was a tooth-aching friction sound, and the rapidly rotating Gold Wheel was suddenly stopped by Xuancheng, unable to move any further.

Looking at Xuancheng’s bloody hand, Monk Jinlun was secretly frightened. If anyone else tried to forcefully catch his Gold Wheel like this, at least half of their palm would be cut off. Unexpectedly, it made only a light scratch in Xuancheng’s palm! 

‘Unbelievable, the Indestructible Vajra Body is really domineering!’

However, Monk Jinlun seemed to have expected this outcome. He moved to the side, diverted Xuancheng’s hand, and punched him in the chest with his right hand that was ready to strike from the start.

Before it even reached Xuancheng body, the sound of wind and thunder carried by Monk Jinlun fist already made his eardrums hurt. 

Xuancheng did not dare to be careless, and quickly used the soft force of his Prajna Palm to dispel the power of this punch.

With fists and palms intersecting, Monk Jinlun felt that the power of his fist was gradually being cut away by the other party, and he couldn’t help but let out a ferocious smile, “Let’s see how much you can dispel!” 

Then he activated the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Technique, and his True Qi surged forward like a huge wave towards the opponent’s palm.

Puff!

Facing what felt more like a tsunami of True Qi, Xuancheng could no longer hold on. He spit out a mouthful of blood and hurriedly retreated backwards.

Taoist Baishang had been waiting by Zhao Min’s side and did not participate in the battle. Seeing that Xuancheng was injured, he followed the principle of taking advantage of the weakened tiger, and in a flash, he used the Xuanming Divine Palm to finish Xuancheng off.

“Old Monk, be careful!” The two envoys of the Wudang Sect swung their swords at the same time.

Shaolin and Wudang have always advanced and retreated together in the wulin. Although there was a secret fraction due to Zhang Cuishan’s incident more than ten years ago, they would not just watch Xuancheng die at the hands of the Mongols.

In the Wudang Sect, Zhang Sanfeng had long since left the sect alone, and the position of leader was passed to his eldest disciple Song Yuanqiao. However, because of Song Qingshu’s murder of Mo Shenggu, Song Yuanqiao resigned and has been concentrating on practicing in the back mountains.

After him, the second disciple Yu Lianzhou took over the position of leader. He usually stayed in Zixiao Palace and rarely went down the mountain. 

Because Yu Daiyan had been disabled for more than ten years, he also developed an irritable temperament and didn’t mingle in the matters of wulin.

The fifth disciple, Zhang Cuishan, committed suicide and Mo Shenggu was killed. Therefore, among the Seven Heroes of Wudang, the Fourth Hero, Zhang Songxi and the Sixth Hero, Yin Liting, were the only ones who often walked around in the wulin. This time, it was these two people who were sent by the Wudang Sect to attend the Golden Serpent Conference.

Zhang Songxi and Yin Liting have been carefully trained by Zhang Sanfeng, and they had studied the Taiji Swordplay from they were young. As a result, they had already become the top masters in the world. Although they were not as good as the other four heroes, it was not impossible for them to close the gap over time.

However, Taoist Baishang was an old devil who fought Zhang Sanfeng hundreds of times before losing. Over the years, he had been thinking about revenge and secretly developed the method of countering the Wudang Sect’s martial arts.

Seeing two men in Wudang Sect attacking with swords, a sinister smile flashed across Taoist Baishang’s face, and he struck out with his palms from an incredible angle. 

The force from the palm strike made Zhang Songxi and Yin Liting’s swords suddenly collide with each other, causing their Qi to clash, and their bodies froze one after another. It was obvious that they had suffered serious internal injuries.

It could be said that the two of them were unlucky. If they had not met Taoist Baishang, an old monster who had been studying the method of countering the Wudang Sect’s martial arts for decades, the two of them would definitely be able to protect themselves even if they faced Ouyang Feng and others. How else could they suffer in such a miserable manner?

“I’ll kill that old bas*tard Zhang Sanfeng and but I will get rid of his two precious apprentices first.” Taoist Baishang roared, and his arms suddenly shot forwards and pressed against his opponents chests.

Zhang Songxi and Yin Liting immediately recognized that this was the Xuanming Divine Palm that Zhang Wuji had been hit by in the past. Even Zhang Sanfeng was helpless against his injuries at the beginning. The power of this man’s Xuanming Divine Palm was more than twice as high as that of the two Xuanming Elders. 

The two of them immediately screamed in their hearts, ‘I’m afraid I’ll die from this today.’

Suddenly, a huge attraction force came from the side of the two, and they immediately moved a few feet horizontally to the side. After they stood firm, they looked at the person behind them and couldn’t help but feel surprised and happy, “Qingshu?”

 “I greet my respected Fourth Uncle and Sixth Uncle.” Song Qingshu saluted and smiled bitterly in his heart. 

Although he was expelled from the Wudang Sect and was almost beaten to death by Yu Lianzhou in the Lion Slaughter Assembly, but in the end, his root was the Wudang Sect and he couldn’t just watch these two martial uncles die before his eyes.

Fortunately, his supposed father Song Yuanqiao didn’t come, or he would have to awkwardly call a total stranger his father.

Taoist Baishang looked back at Zhao Min and saw her wink. He immediately understand her meaning and continued to attack the two again. 

Song Qingshu quickly protected the two behind him and used the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms to meet the incoming attack.

During their last confrontation at the inn, Taoist Baishang had seen Song Qingshu’s martial arts, so he naturally did not dare to be careless. He mustered up his True Qi, and reflected the shadow of his Xuanming Divine Palm all over the space.

The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms used by Song Qingshu was not in any way inferior to his opponent. On the surface, the moves appeared to be ordinary, but in reality, every time Song Qingshu made a move, it shattered the air all around him.

After they exchanged dozens of moves, Zhao Min’s delicate voice rang out, “Enough, spare this insignificant fool’s life for today.”
