Match 101: Hong Dagu
Qiu Fengling immediately invited Yang Li to sit down, but Yang Li had no deep relationship with her and saw that she was too enthusiastic, fearing that she had ulterior motives. Naturally, he refused to follow her. Qiu Fengling repeatedly tried to persuade him, even begging him in the end, which only made Yang Li more suspicious. He sternly rejected her, and Qiu Fengling couldn't bear to let him go. In a moment of desperation, she used the seductive techniques she had learned from Zhao Jinzhen. However, Yang Li's foundation was solid, his spirit concentrated, and he only felt a sudden surge of blood. He immediately became alert, secretly using the true fire of his inner three dan Tian to temper his organs and eliminate all desire. Convinced that the woman in front of him was not a decent person, he spoke out to warn her.
Qiu Fengling was so infatuated with him that she became enraged and humiliated, her face pale with anger, and actually wanted to use force to coerce him. She raised her hand, but it was cut off by Yang Li with one blow. Qiu Fengling was shocked and frightened, and flew back to the cave, shouting for help, startling a group of monks from Hengshan who gathered together to attack. Yang Li could not resist, so he used his double hooks to kill his way out of the encirclement and escaped back to Wutai.
Liu Quan and Deng Baigu were not to be trifled with, and they immediately wanted to kill their way over, but were stopped by Yue Qing, who said that the time was not yet ripe and that they would have to wait for another day. This time, the Luoshan Sect had opened its doors, and Liu Quan did not attend, instead staying at home with Yang Li and Ling Qi to refine his magic treasures and practice his formations, preparing to go to Hengshan to sweep away the evil dens and flatten the demonic lairs when the time came.
Xu Fei returned from Lao Mountain, bringing Yue Qing's words with her. She then set off towards the Western Extreme with Bai Ling Xian. Liu Quan and Yang Li rubbed their fists and palms together, waiting for the Double Ninth Festival to arrive before immediately heading to Hengshan.
It all started with Yang Li and his previous questioning at the door.
Last time, Ding Jia Zhuang and his men chased Yang Li all the way to the foot of Wutai Mountain before realizing he was a disciple of Wutai. They couldn't help but feel quite regretful. Although it's said that the Wutai Sect isn't as powerful as it used to be, after all, a rotten ship still has three nails. Moreover, they were aware of Yue Qing's efforts to rectify the sect rules and revive Wutai in recent years. They really didn't want to clash with Wutai. Wu Song, the Butcher God, said on the spot: "We're all fellow practitioners and old neighbors. Let's take some gifts and go apologize, make amends, and turn enemies into friends. Relying on our connections with Xu Fei Nang and the face of the Three Pure Ones' ancestors..."
Huang Meng felt it was too humiliating: "Since the fall of Taiyi Hunyuan Zushi, the power of Wutai Sect has plummeted, and it's already a thing of the past. Although we shouldn't offend them, we don't have to be afraid either. This time, we just drove away one of their junior disciples, and he even cut off one of our men's hands. If we bring gifts and apologize again, where would the face of Hengshan San Xiong be?"
Both sides were at an impasse, and Ding Jiazhong was also indecisive, so the matter dragged on. Now that Yang Li was making a scene outside, Qiu Fengling was the first to know about it. Her hand had been severed, and she couldn't find the spiritual medicine to reconnect her bones, so she delayed for several days. Her severed hand withered away, leaving her crippled. She secretly resented Yang Li. She went down the mountain and captured eighteen living souls of seven-year-old girls and eight-year-old boys, harmed many fierce beasts, and refined a child-bearing flag. She was preparing to take revenge on Yang Li. When she heard that Yang Li was making a scene outside, she immediately put on her treasure and rushed out.
As soon as she saw Yang Li, her anger dissipated instantly. Looking at the one she loved and hated, it eventually turned into a sentence in her heart: "Little wrongdoer". She whispered to Yang Li: "That day, I asked you to come to the cave to make friends with good intentions because of my love for you. If you agreed, it would be fine; if not, then forget it. Even if I used magic to entice you, it was all infatuated love. You shouldn't have cut off my left hand. Since you did, I don't hate you either. From now on, let's just treat each other as strangers. Now, why are you coming to my door again? Are you determined to take this life from me before you'll stop?"
Yang Li looked at her coquettish appearance and felt annoyed, coldly saying: "If you really love me, why do you still use those despicable methods? In the end, you failed to entice me and even tried to abduct me back to the mountain. You're just a lustful woman who wants to find a man to satisfy your desires! If my cultivation was slightly weaker, wouldn't I have fallen into your trap and ruined my foundation? I advise you to quickly put away that coquettish expression, it's disgusting to look at!"
Qiu Fengling's face turned white with rage, her eyebrows inverted: "I treated you with a true heart, but you regarded me as a dog's liver and lungs. Since you are so ruthless, don't blame me for not being benevolent. Today I will definitely capture you and let you know the skills of Jade-faced Raksha!" She pointed her hand and released another green and yellow flying sword. Knowing that Yang Liulang was treacherous, she immediately released a newly refined magic banner. In an instant, a large cloud of black smoke burst out, forming a cloud cluster that enveloped Yang Liulang, with men and women screaming and beasts howling fiercely inside!
Below, Ding Jiazhuan had already determined that there must be a master of the Wutai Sect behind Yang Li's back to reinforce him. Just as he was hesitating, his two disciples, Gui Yan'er Zhu Chi and Du Jiao Jin Gang Yang Jian, killed each other without waiting for their master's order. The two of them were because Qiu Fengling had become disabled, and the three evils no longer belonged to her, so it was just right for them to take advantage of the opportunity to get close to the younger generation. Therefore, as soon as they saw Qiu Fengling fighting with Yang Li, they immediately killed each other to assist: "Don't let the little dog of Wutai Sect bully people too much!"
Liu Quan was leading his disciples to hide in the clouds, and when he saw the two men come out to fight, he immediately let Ling Qi and Wei Zhan go forward to meet them. The two of them flew down from the clouds with their swords, making two rounds of flowing stars, directly attacking Zhu Chi Wu and Yang Jian. Originally, Zhu Chi Wu's magical powers were higher than Yang Jian's, and Liu Quan intended for Ling Qi to fight against Zhu Chi Wu, and Wei Zhan to deal with Yang Jian. But unexpectedly, Zhu Chi Wu saw that Wei Zhan was older, and the flying sword he used was the true transmission of Lü Zu, a pure yang treasure, emitting light that was different from ordinary swords. He guessed that his younger brother was not a match for him, so he took the initiative to turn around and meet the flying sword, and then raised his hand to shoot 49 flying knives, carrying yellow flames and green fire, flying towards Wei Zhan to slash him.
Liu Quan saw that things were not going well, but he was unwilling to take advantage of his seniority, so he said to Tao Jun and Shang Fengzi: "You have been studying Taoism in the mountains for a short time, but your sword skills have already taken root. Now go and help your senior brother with one arm." Tao Jun and Shang Fengzi took orders, drove two Tian Gang swords, transformed into a few feet long green awn, flew down to join the battle group, and helped Wei Zhan and others fight against Zhu Chiwu.
"Wu Xuan was shocked and exclaimed: 'They really have reinforcements!'"
Dali Xiantong Hong Dabao laughed and said: "Master Shu, why must you give them face and destroy our morale? They are just a group of young disciples who have just entered the path. Let me go out and kill them all!" After finishing speaking, he merged his body into a ball of golden light and flew out to kill.
Hong Dabao saw that Tao Jun and Shang Fengzi's skills were the weakest, so he thought of taking them out first with a swift and fierce attack. He raised his most powerful treasure, the Lei Tian Chui, which transformed into a large golden light wheel and struck towards Tao Jun.
The moment the hammer struck, a golden light flashed in from the western sky, and amidst the white misty sword light, a voice shouted from afar: "Fatty Pig Demon! Spare my brother! Huang Qian of the Pure Yang Sect has arrived!"
Wei Zhan took a look at him and also shook his spirit, spitting out the true energy to urge his flying sword. The two pure Yang immortal swords crossed in mid-air, holding down the golden light transformed by the hammer of the sky. The hammer hummed with a majestic momentum like Mount Tai pressing down from above. Wei Zhan and Huang Qian joined forces to barely hold it back. Tao Jun and Shang Fengzi also crossed their two heavenly guillotine swords in a scissor-like shape, going towards Hong Dabao's waist to strangle him. Hong Dabao sneered coldly, operating his sword to counterattack. His Tao was profound, and a dark red sword light suppressed the flying swords of the two men.
At this time, three more sword lights flew in from the west mountain, which were exactly Zhuang Yi, Yang Xiao and Yu Chong. The seven brothers surrounded Hong Dabao in the middle, with sword lights intersecting each other, forming a net to attack him from all sides. Hong Dabao was fearless, opening his mouth to spew out large pieces of ancient corpse fire that he had been brewing in his belly. The emerald green flames shot out in all directions like waterfalls, illuminating the mountains and ground with an eerie blue light, making people shiver uncontrollably, filling their noses with a stench of rot and decay.
Below the cave, San Xiong saw the enemy's reinforcements coming one after another, and didn't know how many more there were. Moreover, they were all younger disciples, some of whom had just entered the sect and learned swordsmanship. The seniors still didn't know where they were. Wu Song was muttering to himself, complaining, when he suddenly heard a loud rumbling sound like thunder from the back cave, and the mountain shook as if a dragon was turning over. Everyone was shocked and rushed towards the back cave. As soon as they entered the cave entrance, they heard a deafening crash, and five-colored lightning mixed with shattered stone smoke and dust burst in.
Huang Meng reacted the fastest, seeing two sword lights shooting in, he hastily shook his hands, releasing two dark red glows to counterattack. Just as they were about to collide with the opponent's sword light, suddenly two five-colored light circles fell from the side and wrapped around the red glow, quickly shrinking. A series of cracking sounds rang out, Huang Meng exclaimed "Not good!", his wrist shook, and the twin swords instantly transformed into 108,000 fine, hair-like Blood Draining Needles, almost conjuring up a bloody mist out of thin air.
Those two flashes of sword light were Shi Sheng and Si Tu Ping, fortunately both of them had achieved a state of unity with their swords, rushing inward urgently, the sword lights protecting their bodies from the outside, the blood-sucking needles unable to harm them, otherwise they would have all perished on the spot!
