With Shen Bijun here, Xin Yuehu will surely follow.
Capturing the Heart Moon Fox would be another significant achievement.
Accumulating merits in the Green Dragon Society is truly a joyful thing in life.
Bu Jingyun pointed outside the door, his gaze sweeping over Hai Ze Wu Lang and Shan Lu Wu Xiang.
Haize Wulang's face was gloomy. His primary target for this trip was the Heart Moon Fox on Shen Bijun's body.
Now, the Azure Dragon Society has intervened halfway through, and they have encountered the infamous Master Guichen.
With the mission on the verge of failure, he had no intention of engaging in a prolonged battle with Bu Jingyun.
In a flash of inspiration, Haize Wulang secretly made a hand gesture to Shanlu Wuxiang.
The mountain deer, without understanding, quietly responded.
"Brother Bu, let's call this competition off."
"I have long heard that Master Guichen's swordsmanship is divine; he once killed Yuan Tiangang with a single sword strike."
"It is an honor to meet you today, and I would like to learn a thing or two from you."
Hai Ze Wu Lang instantly changed his tune, showering Gui Chen with attention.
"Oh? People from Japan know my name too?"
Gui Chen looked slightly surprised.
"The reputation of Master Guichen is widespread. I once learned the 'Pinghu Sword Technique' from Pojun; would you be so kind as to offer some guidance?"
As they spoke, Haize Wulang had already passed Bu Jingyun and was approaching Guichen.
"Po Jun? Is that the Po Jun who surrendered to the Great Yuan and died by the nameless sword?"
Upon hearing this, Gui Chen immediately became interested.
Although Po Jun was no match for Wu Ming, he was still ranked thirty-fourth on the Heavenly Dao Golden List and was the direct son of the former sect leader of the Sword Sect.
However, the name of the Sword Sect was little known even in Yunzhou.
Haize Wulang was visibly taken aback when he heard the words "Sword Sect".
He quickly regained his composure, stopped investigating, and took out a sword manual from his robes.
"This is the 'Pinghu Swordplay'."
"My sect leader and Po Jun are old friends; he obtained this sword manual from him."
Gui Chen's gaze fell on the four powerful characters "Pinghu Sword Technique" on the book cover. His heart stirred slightly, and he reached out to take the manual.
Turning to the title page, one discovers this seemingly ordinary "Pinghu Swordplay."
It was a rare, heaven-level sword technique!
Even with his cultivation level of Guichen, he still found himself greatly benefited from studying this sword technique.
"The Sword Sect's reputation is truly well-deserved!"
Ximen Yu once said that the swordsmanship of Yunzhou all originated from the Sword Sect.
The Sword Sect has produced many outstanding talents, and many of the top masters in Yunzhou have connections to it.
At that time, he was still skeptical.
Today, seeing such mastery in a sword manual that Hai Ze Wu Lang casually picked up, I was truly amazed.
One can't help but marvel at the profound foundation of the Sword Sect; the Great Dragon Head is indeed knowledgeable and well-informed.
"I wonder if this sword manual will meet the approval of Master Guichen?"
Haize Wulang noticed the amazement in Guichen's eyes and asked him a question.
"Indeed extraordinary. You offer this sword manual with a request?"
"As long as the request is not excessive, I can grant it."
Gui Chen has already realized that if he can integrate the essence of the "Pinghu Sword Technique" into his own swordsmanship...
This will surely elevate your swordsmanship to a higher level.
Therefore, even though the other party was Japanese, they were willing to facilitate the transaction.
"To be honest, after Po Jun exchanged sword techniques with us, he went to the Central Plains."
"The altar master must know what happened next."
"This man is arrogant and conceited, daring to challenge 'Heavenly Sword' Nameless."
"Ultimately, he met his demise in the Yuan Dynasty's imperial court."
"Therefore, although I have obtained this sword manual, I still have many doubts."
As Haize Wulang spoke, he approached Guichen.
"I have long heard that Master Guichen's swordsmanship is profound, on par with Dugu Jian."
"I humbly request the master to offer some guidance; if I can comprehend even one or two tenths of this sword technique, that would be sufficient."
What do you think?
Gui Chen looked at him with a surprised expression:
"You're offering a Heavenly-level sword manual just to ask for guidance?"
"Exactly!" Haize Wulang replied respectfully.
"Come forward."
Gui Chen gestured for him to come closer and unfolded the sword manual, starting with a detailed explanation of the first move.
Haize Wulang seemed truly obsessed with swordsmanship, listening intently.
When they reached the tenth move in the breakdown of the techniques, Gui Chen was getting into the swing of things.
The girl suddenly shouted sharply.
Haize Wulang, who had been intently listening to Guichen's explanation, suddenly launched an attack. He used his short dagger to unleash a "Calm Lake Sword Technique," followed by "Boundless Divine Palm" with both hands. The three deadly moves, infused with the deadly poison of the Hidden Sword Flow, were aimed directly at Guichen's vital points.
This poison would be difficult for even a celestial being to detect.
With perfect timing, Haize Wulang was certain that even someone as strong as Guichen would not escape this calamity. At the same time, the Lianjiabao group rushed towards the Qinglong Society assassins, and Shanlu Wuxiang took advantage of the chaos to capture Shen Bijun and attempt to escape.
Capturing the Heart Moon Fox is the top priority of this mission, and no price is too high to pay for it.
The warning came abruptly, but Haize Wulang didn't take it seriously—even if he couldn't kill Guichen, he should be able to escape after being severely injured.
I said...
Gui Chen's calm voice suddenly rang out, sending chills down the spines of all the attackers.
"Do you know the consequences of provoking the Azure Dragon Society?"
Hai Ze Wu Lang was horrified to discover that his three killing moves were blocked by his true qi, and the force of the recoil made his arms go numb.
"How is that possible?!"
"The kid's still too green," Gui Chen sneered. "In two hundred years of martial arts, what tricks haven't I seen? Since you've made a move—"
"Then spare their lives."
"Action! Leave no one behind, eliminate them all!"
At Gui Chen's command, his inner energy suddenly erupted.
Haize Wulang's wrists were instantly shattered by the force of the qi.
Even in the critical moment, he still attempted to resist.
Gui Chen casually waved his hand, and a sharp sword aura shot out from the sky.
In an instant, Haize Wulang's throat was pierced.
From the start of the sneak attack to Gui Chen's order to counterattack, the process seemed long but actually only took a moment.
Before the Lian family members could react, they were all wiped out by the Qinglong Society assassins behind them.
Only the peerless master, Shanlu Wuxiang, was unstoppable by anyone present.
He grabbed Shen Bijun and was about to break through the roof to escape.
The scarlet cloak transformed into a gigantic hand that blotted out the sky, fueled by true energy.
The terrifying pressure left the mountain deer with nowhere to escape.
Bu Jingyun has made his move!
"Fine! If we can't have it, neither can you!"
Faced with this unavoidable palm strike, Shanlu Wuxiang resolutely tore off Shen Bijun's backpack and threw it with all his might at the force of the palm strike.
A master's palm strike is powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.
Even divine weapons would find it difficult to withstand, let alone Bu Jingyun's Cloud-Dispelling Palm, which is extraordinary.
To destroy Xin Yuehu, Shanlu Wuxiang also unleashed his full power.
The collision of these two unparalleled forces will surely shatter this treasure.
"The Japanese are indeed as the Great Dragon Head said: ambitious and ruthless."
Seeing that the mountain deer had no intention of escaping and only wanted to complete its mission, Guichen felt a chill in his heart.
Recalling how Haize Wulang risked his life to stop him, such ruthlessness secretly alarmed him.
"Bu Jingyun, show no mercy!"
Sensing that Bu Jingyun was holding back, Gui Chen immediately warned him.
Although he did not know the reason, Bu Jingyun still chose to trust him.
He immediately circulated his true energy, and the power of his Cloud-Dispelling Palm increased dramatically.
In this contest, Bu Jingyun's internal strength was slightly inferior, but his Cloud-Dispelling Palm was incredibly powerful, giving him the upper hand.
On the contrary, Shanlu possessed profound internal strength but mediocre palm techniques, thus maintaining a defensive stance.
Logically speaking, the two should be evenly matched in a fight.
The powerful palm strike from the master nearly blew the roof off the Tongfu Inn.
At the critical moment, Bu Jingyun suddenly felt a surge of powerful true energy flowing into his body.
The power of the Cloud-Dispelling Palm increased more than tenfold.
With a single strike, the package shattered into pieces.
Despite his best efforts to resist, Shanlu Wuxiang could not withstand the surge of palm force.
All his bones were shattered, and he was instantly reduced to ashes.
Strangely, this overwhelming palm strike only took the life of Shanlu Wuxiang.
When it passed Shen Bijun, the palm wind actually bypassed her on its own.
The residual force struck the ground, creating a crater over ten feet deep in the Tongfu Inn.
As the dust settled, Bu Jingyun embraced Shen Bijun.
He retrieved a bronze box from the aftershocks of the palm strike and floated to the ground.
"Is this it?"
Bu Jingyun examined the bronze box closely, and the truth was already clear in his mind.
"It is indeed Heart Moon Fox."
Gui Chen arrived gracefully, smiling as he spoke.
"Legend has it that this object is one of the Seven Mansions of the Azure Dragon."
"The Azure Dragon's Seven Mansions are said to contain the astonishing power created by King Wen of Zhou."
"Imagine such a divine object; how could you or I possibly move it so easily?"
"this......"
Bu Jingyun looked ashamed. If Gui Chen hadn't reminded him, he would have almost held back his power.
