Chapter 119

At this moment, Zixiao Hall was filled with a group of renowned masters from the martial arts world, including Jin Jiuling, the number one constable of the Six Doors; Ye Gucheng, the sword immortal and lord of Baiyun City; Ximen Chuixue, the sword god of Wanmei Manor; Lu Xiaofeng with his Lingxi Finger; and Li Xunhuan with his Little Li Flying Dagger.

These are just the guests. If we include Zhang Weihao’s own people, there’s also Dong Wanbai, the famous leader of the Sun Moon Sect, Dongfang Bubai; Ning Zhongze, the wife of the Huashan Sword Sect’s leader; Yue Lingshan, the daughter of the Huashan Sword Sect’s leader; Xue Keren, the youngest sister of the Xue family from Xue Family Village, also known as the Cold Rakshasa, a descendant of the Divine Needle Madam Xue, and one of the “Four Great Mother Tigers” of the martial arts world, Xue Bing.

As for Xue Qianxun, many people only know that she is Dongfang Bubai’s younger sister and Zhang Weihao’s personal maid. Her actual strength and skills are unknown, but everyone can sense that this personal maid is not only beautiful, but also definitely not simple in terms of skills.

Because they hadn’t yet connected with their young master, and their young master wouldn’t be back for a while, they didn’t know that Jin Jiuling was the Embroidered Bandit.

So Xue Qianxun had Mei Lan Zhu Ju and the others greet Lu Xiaofeng and his group, and at the same time they talked about the recent major case, and seriously considered whether their Zhang family would be targeted.

The Zhang family is too large, and they are all Zhang Weihao’s people. They can guarantee the absolute safety of Zhang Weihao’s Tianrenju, but it is unlikely that they can protect the entire Zhang family mansion.

There are certainly guards, and they are not weak, but they are no match for the Prince of Pingnan’s mansion, and it is unlikely that they can deal with the Embroidered Bandit who is comparable to a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm. So we really need to have a good talk about this Embroidered Bandit.

She was filled with extreme resentment. She had come here specifically to catch this bastard who had interfered with her relationship with the Sun Moon Cult. When Jin Jiuling mentioned the embroidered thief’s martial arts skills, Dongfang Bai said with disdain, “He only blinded people. This was not intentional. It’s just that he only has this level of skill. He is definitely not a master of innate cultivation. He is a master of innate cultivation, and he is proficient in the art of identifying and striking acupoints. He is very familiar with the kung fu moves of these victims. He found the loopholes in their moves and attacked them. It was not an absolute crushing of strength.”

Jin Jiuling’s heart pounded uncontrollably for a moment, but as a professional, he quickly composed himself and continued to discuss the case with Li Xunhuan, Dongfang Bai, and the others without changing his expression. After all, this was what he, as the chief constable, should be doing.

Others naturally wouldn’t notice Jin Jiuling’s unusual behavior, but Dongfang Bai, having first cultivated his inner core before practicing martial arts, possessed a far deeper understanding and mastery of the human body than most martial arts masters. Even though it was just a fleeting moment, Dongfang Bai noticed Jin Jiuling’s earlier tension and immediately recalled that Jin Jiuling himself seemed to be proficient in acupoint identification and striking, and was also very familiar with Ren Zhong and others, being close friends. This guy was known for his love of making friends.

Just as Dongfang Bai was about to probe further, Xue Qianxun led Zhang Weihao, who had just returned to the mansion, and Shangguan Haitang to Zixiao Hall.

This is a reception room in Zhang Weihao’s outer courtyard. It’s very large and can easily accommodate 30 to 50 people at the same time. He’s also very well-off and has plenty of money and fine wine, so he provides them with the best food and drinks.

Li Xunhuan, the old drunkard, naturally came by the smell of alcohol, and then met Lu Xiaofeng, his drinking buddy. The two hit it off immediately and had a very pleasant chat.

As soon as Zhang Weihao entered the room, he heard Xue Bing and Yue Lingshan discussing how Li Xunhuan’s flying daggers never missed their mark and Lingxi Finger was incredibly accurate. He wondered what would happen if Lingxi Finger were sent to catch Li Xunhuan’s flying daggers.

Was Yue Lingshan just enjoying the spectacle and didn’t even consider that failing to catch it could be fatal?

Xue Bing had great confidence in her lover, but she knew that if he couldn’t catch the flying knife, he would die. So she was unwilling to let him actually try, fearing that he might die if he tried. However, she wouldn’t back down and argued endlessly with Yue Lingshan, who was just as childish, which made Li Xunhuan and Lu Xiaofeng, his two drinking buddies, drink in silence.

“There’s no need to argue. Even the Spirit Rhinoceros Finger can’t catch my Uncle Li’s Little Flying Dagger. Li Manqing, Chu Liuxiang, and Ye Kai can, but they can’t catch my Uncle Li’s. Only his flying dagger is the Little Flying Dagger.”

Although he didn’t say it aloud, Lu Xiaofeng was very confident in his Lingxi Finger. He had even caught Ye Gucheng’s Heavenly Flying Immortal at 80% power. Without absolute confidence, he wouldn’t have been able to master the Lingxi Finger.

“Oh, Brother Li’s throwing knives are really that amazing!”

“It’s true. Below the Grandmaster level, apart from a few exceptional body-refining experts, anyone who gets hit by it will die. As long as they have the chance to make a move, they will surely die.”

Even Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue became very serious and looked at this former martial arts legend again. Others might be exaggerating, but if Zhang Lingyu said this, it must be true, and he had the right to say it.

“Can I break your Golden Light Curse?” Li Xunhuan didn’t care about such things. Instead, he teased Zhang Weihao, which could be considered a test and a sign of his curiosity.

“It can’t be broken, not even the Celestial Immortal can break it.” Zhang Weihao said this while staring at Ye Gucheng as if he were deliberately provoking him.

Ye Gucheng naturally became interested and directly challenged him to a duel, saying, “That’s perfect, I also want to show you my sword.”

The two understood each other and left Zixiao Hall directly, heading to the open space in the outer courtyard to spar.

The others naturally followed suit immediately; who wouldn’t want to watch such a spectacle? Only Ximen Chuixue remained motionless. He was unwilling to take advantage of the situation and wanted to observe his opponent’s special skills before engaging in combat.
