The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a disciple of Yue Buqun

Page 281

Upon hearing this, Fang Zheng felt a surge of emotion welling up inside him.

Ren Woxing sneered.

"Today's matter concerns the feud between me and the Huashan Sect. The three people I have chosen are selected from my own sect, and your side should also choose from the Huashan Sect."

"no!"

Fang Zheng immediately shook his head and refused.

What's the difference between agreeing to these conditions and giving it away for free?

"Please forgive my rudeness, but the power of Master Ren and the Huashan Sect is vastly different. If that is the case, then this competition would be unfair, and I cannot agree to it."

Fang Zheng had an expression that said he would never agree, no matter what Ren Woxing said.

But unexpectedly, Ren Woxing did not insist, and did not even refute a word.

"In that case, let's add these two factions as well. Your candidates will be chosen from the three factions of Mount Hua, Mount Tai, and Mount Heng."

Ren Woxing pointed to the Taishan and Hengshan sects, then, as if remembering something, pointed to the Emei sect.

"Oh, by the way, this teacher just said that if she wanted to destroy the Huashan Sect, she would also destroy the Emei Sect. So let's add the Emei Sect to the list, is that alright?"

"so be it."

Before Fang Zheng could speak, Yue Buqun stepped forward and agreed to Ren Woxing's conditions.

Chapter 375: The First Battle, King Ning vs. the Heavenly King

"Master Yue!"

Upon hearing Yue Buqun agree, Fang Zheng quickly tried to stop him.

"it is good!"

However, Ren Woxing responded loudly.

"Hey!"

The agreement was reached by both parties, and the die was cast. Fang Zheng sighed helplessly.

"Sect Leader Yue, why did you agree so quickly?"

Fang Zheng was speechless at this point.

Besides Ren Woxing himself, Xiang Wentian was also on Ren Woxing's side, along with many other experts. Putting aside everything else, Fang Zheng felt that the Huashan sects alone could not handle just Ren Woxing and Xiang Wentian.

His original plan was for him and Chongxu to deal with Ren Woxing and Xiang Wentian. Although they couldn't guarantee a victory, their chances of winning were not low. However, Yue Buqun agreed so quickly that he didn't have time to stop him.

Most importantly, Shaolin Temple can no longer participate in this bet.

Fang Zheng originally wanted to win this bet so that Ren Woxing would stop causing trouble for Jiang Ning. This way, Jiang Ning would be indebted to him, and it would be much easier for him to recruit Jiang Ning to Shaolin later. However, with Yue Buqun's actions, he could only play a mediating role at most. Jiang Ning might be grateful to him, but it wouldn't be as effective as him personally taking action.

such a pity.

What a waste of such a great opportunity.

Fang Zheng sighed inwardly at the pity.

He genuinely coveted a disciple like Jiang Ning.

What's even more regrettable is that he feels Yue Buqun's side is more likely to lose, and Jiang Ning may very well perish here.

"Abbot, rest assured, I know what I'm doing."

Yue Buqun said to the witness, "Thank you for your mediation, Abbot. I will remember it forever."

The matter was already settled and could not be changed no matter what. Fang Zheng could only chant "Amitabha" and wish Yue Buqun's side success.

"Sect Leader Yue has great spirit; I admire you."

At this moment, Ren Woxing spoke up with a smile: "Whoever goes first, I will let you go first."

Ren Woxing's words were filled with strong confidence.

In his view, as long as Fang Zheng didn't make a move, his side had no chance of winning.

"Sect Leader Yue, let me fight the first battle."

Tianmen Daoist was about to go up with his sword, but Yue Buqun stopped him.

"Brother Dao, please wait."

Yue Buqun quickly said, "I am deeply grateful for everyone's support of my Huashan Sect at this moment. However, swords have no eyes. If there are any casualties during the duel, I will be guilty. This kind of duel concerning my Huashan Sect should be handled by people from my Huashan Sect."

In fact, Yue Buqun already had someone in mind to choose for the battle.

That means he, Jiang Ning, and Linghu Chong will fight against Ren Woxing's side.

He understood the meaning behind Fang Zheng's words, which was that they were no match for Ren Woxing's side, but Yue Buqun himself did not think so.

To date, no one else in the world knows that the Huashan Sect has recovered the Xiantian Gong, the most treasured martial art of the Quanzhen Sect, and that he has even cultivated it to the fourth level, greatly improving his martial arts skills.

Yue Buqun did not believe that he was weaker than Ren Woxing.

Jiang Ning, needless to say, is now at the same level as him, at the fourth level of the Innate Skill. He has profound internal strength and extremely rich combat experience. At a young age, his martial arts have already entered the ranks of top masters. In his opinion, he might not necessarily lose even if he were to face Xiang Wentian.

Although Linghu Chong did not practice the Innate Skill, Yue Buqun taught him the complete Zixia Divine Skill. Moreover, Linghu Chong also had the Dugu Nine Swords taught by Feng Qingyang, so he might not necessarily lose in a real fight.

Although the Huashan Sect is weak now, Yue Buqun is not afraid of anyone when it comes to top masters.

"Ning'er, Chong'er, you two will fight alongside your master."

Yue Buqun spoke up and called out names.

"Yes, Master."

Jiang Ning nodded without surprise; he knew he would definitely participate in the battle.

"Yes, Master!"

Linghu Chong responded loudly, his expression quite excited.

He hadn't expected Yue Buqun to let him fight on such an important occasion, and Linghu Chong felt valued.

"Master, don't worry!"

Linghu Chong assured Yue Buqun, "This disciple will do my utmost."

Yue Buqun nodded slightly and was about to speak when Xiang Wentian spoke up from the opposite side.

"Sect Leader Yue has been discussing this for so long and still hasn't decided who will go first. Is he trying to stall for time?"

Xiang Wentian was tall and imposing, dressed in white with white hair, giving him the air of a reclusive sage.

"I come!"

Linghu Chong was furious when he heard this, and he grabbed his sword and was about to go up, but a hand stopped him.

"Senior brother, since the enemy is coming for me, I'll take the first battle."

Jiang Ning spoke calmly, and with a slight movement, stepped out from the crowd.

"Junior brother, I am the senior brother, so I'll go first."

Linghu Chong wanted to go first, but Yue Buqun said, "Chong'er, don't rush, let Ning'er go first."

Hearing his master speak, Linghu Chong had no choice but to obey.

As Jiang Ning stepped forward and made his appearance among the crowd of martial arts practitioners, his appearance became known to everyone.

"Who is this person? Is he a disciple of Mount Hua?"

"Why did Sect Leader Yue send his disciple out to fight the first match? Is it because he's afraid the Sun Moon Sect is too powerful and the Huashan Sect will be destroyed, so he plans to have his disciple deliberately lose two matches?"

Many people were discussing it, but some immediately refuted it.

"That's Jiang Ning!"

"Oh? It was him!"

Only then did everyone suddenly realize.

Only now did they realize that the legendary King Ning was actually so young and handsome.

At this moment, Jiang Ning also walked to the center, glanced at Ren Woxing's side opposite him, and placed his right hand on the hilt of his sword.

"Which one of you is coming?"

Jiang Ning spoke calmly, with little change in tone, yet his voice carried throughout the Fengchan Terrace on Mount Song, making it clear to everyone.

As soon as Jiang Ning spoke, all the martial arts practitioners stopped talking and didn't utter a sound.

Everyone looked at Jiang Ning in astonishment.

"Such profound internal strength."

Master Chongxu couldn't help but be secretly surprised.

Jiang Ning seemed to be simply speaking without revealing much of his strength, but it was enough to shock them.

It's important to know that it takes extremely deep internal strength to spread words. Just like Tianmen Daoist, he had to shout to speak, unlike Jiang Ning who could do it so easily. This shows that Jiang Ning's strength is far greater than Tianmen Daoist's.

"Such a young age, such strength..."

Master Chongxu was secretly alarmed.

No wonder Fang Zheng cared so much about this Huashan disciple.

Fang Zheng was also shocked at this moment, but he felt more regret.

At this moment, not only Fang Zheng's side was shocked, but Ren Woxing's side was also surprised after hearing Jiang Ning's words.

"Impressive internal strength."

Ren Woxing looked Jiang Ning up and down in surprise.

I never expected that such a genius would emerge from a mere Huashan Sect.

"Brother Xiang, how about you have a fight with that kid?"

Ren Woxing thought for a moment, then looked at Xiang Wentian.

"Yes, Master."

Xiang Wentian bowed and accepted the order, then looked at Jiang Ning with a smile on his face.

"Kid, your internal strength is not bad. Lately, there have been a lot of stories about you in the martial arts world. I'm tired of hearing about it. Let me see how powerful you really are."

Jiang Ning remained calm and didn't say much, simply pointing at him.

"come here."

Chapter 376: Battle

Xiang Wentian was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Crazy enough!"

After saying that, Xiang Wentian lightly touched the ground with his toes, and his figure flew up and landed not far in front of Jiang Ning, the two of them not far apart.

"Who do you think will win?"

Some people in the martial arts world started discussing this.

One is the Left Envoy of the Demonic Sect, infamous for his ruthlessness, known as the Heavenly King, a ruthless killer who has killed countless righteous people. He is a well-established high-ranking member of the demonic sect.

One is a rising star, equally infamous, known as the Living Yama, equally ruthless in killing, and countless evil spirits have died at his hands. It is no exaggeration to say that he hates evil as if it were his enemy. Although he has not been famous for long, he has done a series of major things that have shaken the martial arts world in the past three years, and he is a prominent figure in the martial arts world recently.

He is also currently the fourth strongest expert in the righteous path.

The news that a ruthless high-ranking member of the demonic path and a rising star of the righteous path who hates evil are about to make their move is enough to attract a large number of people.

The martial arts practitioners present watched the two on the field intently, not wanting to miss a single moment of this clash between top masters.

They also wanted to know how big the gap was between them and these experts.

In the field.

Jiang Ning and Xiang Wentian stood facing each other.
