Chapter 197 The Shock of the Central Plains Martial Arts World, Meeting!

Liu Jingfeng, nicknamed "Blood River Divine Dragon," appears to be in his early forties and carries a black iron sword on his back.

Liu Jingfeng, the "Blood River Divine Dragon," was a man of imposing stature yet agile strength. His black robe billowed in the wind, subtly revealing a calm and domineering aura born of experience. His sword-like eyebrows slanted sharply towards his temples, and his deep, piercing eyes, like twinkling cold stars, seemed to see through all the illusions of the world. Beneath his high, straight nose, his thin lips were tightly pressed together, the faint, resolute curve at the corners of his mouth seeming to tell of countless life-or-death struggles in the martial world. His black hair was casually tied up, a few stray strands falling on either side of his face, adding to his untamed spirit.

"What are you doing back here?"

"Of course we're here to cause trouble!"

Liu Jingfeng grinned at the old monk:

"Huikong, you suppressed me under this vast glacier back then, trying to obliterate my primordial spirit and seize my body. You don't think I've forgotten this grudge, do you?"

"Amitabha!" Huikong clasped his hands together and uttered the Buddha's name.

"You assassinated the current emperor, and were suppressed under this vast glacier, just to cleanse you of your demonic nature."

"It is because you are attached to appearances, benefactor!"

Liu Jingfeng shook his head:

"You monks are all hypocrites!"

"Actually, the other monks at your Lankesi Temple are alright, but you, Huikong, and your senior brother, Abbot Huiming, are the most hypocritical."

"You two old geezers have lived for nearly three thousand years, yet your martial arts haven't improved much. Even if you were to possess another body now, you'd only be clinging to life. I think you've lived enough. What's the point of your obsession with living on?"

"I've only been out of this glacier for a few decades. Come, let me see if you've improved over the years?"

As Liu Jingfeng finished speaking...

boom!

A terrifying sword intent erupted from his body, and countless sword energies covered the surrounding area.

Bang bang bang!

An array was erected within the Rotten Ke Temple, and an invisible barrier blocked all the sword energy that filled the sky.

A radiant light rose from Huikong's body.

The Buddha's light should have made people feel comfortable, but the Buddha's light on Huikong's body gave people a gloomy feeling, making it hard to breathe and making their hair stand on end.

"Pretend to be a ghost!"

Liu Jingfeng snorted coldly.

Chi!

The iron sword on his back was drawn.

Swish swish!

A crimson sword aura shot out.

A thousand-foot-long sword aura suddenly slashed towards Huikong.

The nearby glaciers are trembling.

Huikong's expression remained unchanged; he gently turned the prayer beads in his hand.

Chi Chi!

Golden lines emerged from the glacier beneath his buttocks, transforming into a massive shield that blocked his path.

The Rotten Axe Temple is actually located on an island in the middle of a lake.

Because the lake is frozen, it's impossible to tell.

The ice surface alone is tens of meters thick.

boom!

The crimson sword energy clashed with the golden shield.

A terrifying shockwave erupted, shattering the ice surface surrounding Huikong.

Beneath the ice, golden true energy filled the entire lake, forming a massive net that enveloped Liu Jingfeng.

"The same old thing!"

"Your nets couldn't trap me back then, and you still want to trap me now?"

Liu Jingfeng spoke coldly, then suddenly turned his head to look in the direction of Lanke Temple.

Chi!

The sword energy burst forth, cutting a gap in the golden true energy that surrounded him like a large net.

Then the person burst out of the opening and disappeared in an instant.

Two figures appeared beside Huikong; they were Tianzun and Jianzheng.

The Celestial Venerable frowned slightly:

"Liu Jingfeng's martial arts have reached the peak of the eighth level of the Thunder Tribulation Realm. His spiritual sense is extremely accurate, making him very difficult to defeat!"

The supervisor shook his head and said:

"He first went to the Heavenly Demon Sect, then to the Earth Sect, and now he's come to the Rotten Chess Temple!"

"He wants to use his own strength to entangle you all, preventing you from dealing with people related to him!"

“I have already set up the Heavenly Sound Annihilation Array in the Vajra Temple and the Human Sect. As long as he gets close to the area of ​​the Vajra Temple and the Human Sect, his spiritual senses will be ineffective. Although I cannot pinpoint his exact location, I can vaguely see some of his destiny trajectory!”

"At most six months, Liu Jingfeng will definitely go to those two places!"

"That will be the best opportunity to capture him!"

After speaking, the supervisor looked at Huikong and said with a half-smile:

"Master Huikong's body is almost unusable. Liu Jingfeng is the most suitable vessel. If we can possess Liu Jingfeng, we can use him for at least five hundred years!"

Huikong clasped his hands together and said calmly:

"The luck I harvested ninety years ago is not enough to support me to possess another body."

"The imperial court has been recuperating for almost a century; it's time to reap the rewards once more!"

"Moreover, His Majesty the present is not entirely honest either!"

"..."

……

"Have you heard? 'Demon Blade' Xiao Bieli has become the leader of the martial arts world in the East China Sea!"

"What? That can't be right!"

"What's impossible about it? The overseas martial arts world is so weak. Any one of the Nine Sects and Six Gangs could easily become a king or a tyrant. With such powerful martial arts, it's not surprising that the Demon Blade could become the leader of the martial arts alliance."

"Then you underestimate the overseas martial arts world. I heard that this time, the Demon Blade Xiao Bieli killed all the remnants of the previous dynasty overseas and even slew a dragon!"

hiss!

Upon hearing the word 'dragon', a commotion erupted in the restaurant.

As merchants from the East China Sea came to the Central Plains during this period, the news of Xiao Bieli becoming the leader of the East China Sea martial arts alliance gradually spread throughout the Central Plains.

Especially the prefectures and counties near the coast.

Everyone is talking about Xiao Bieli.

I thought the Demon Blade had quieted down for a while, but I didn't expect it to cause such a big stir overseas.

"The Demon Blade truly lives up to its name. Ever since it earned this title in the martial arts world, it has never stopped causing trouble. After wreaking havoc on the Central Plains martial arts world, it has now gone on to wreak havoc overseas!"

"Yes, in just over a year, two of the nine factions and six gangs have been wiped out, and the Ouyang family patriarch is still in hiding!"

"This time, Xiao Bieli is the leader of the East Sea martial arts alliance, the number one martial artist in the East Sea. He shouldn't be returning to the Central Plains, right?"

"That's not clear!"

"The Blood-Clad Tower is in such a dire situation right now. If they could establish themselves overseas, it wouldn't be a bad option!"

"..."

……

Just as the martial arts world in the Central Plains was abuzz with discussion.

A large ship has quietly entered Haizhou Longwang Port.

They returned quietly, without bringing anyone else with them, just Xiao Bieli and Feng Siniang.

All the gold and silver treasures that were supposed to be brought back were left on Dragon Island.

"Finally, we're back in the Central Plains!"

"I wonder how my dad and the others are doing!"

Feng Si Niang looked at the busy crowd at the port and sighed.

Her father was seriously injured while trying to stop the imperial guards, and no one knows how he is now.

Xiao Bieli:

"Don't worry, with that person from Jiangshan Pavilion taking action, there shouldn't be any major problems."

"I believe news will arrive in a few days!"

The two walked towards the port.

Feng Si Niang followed Xiao Bieli and turned into a deserted alley.

"What are you doing here?" Feng Si Niang asked, puzzled.

Xiao Bieli said calmly:

"Of course I'm waiting for someone!"

"As expected of Hero Xiao, I knew I couldn't hide anything from you!" Eunuch Lü appeared at the alley entrance, cupped his hands in greeting to Xiao Bieli, and said:

"Lu Qinghong, the supervisor of the Eastern Depot, pays his respects to Master Xiao!"

"I have come to see Master Xiao on the Emperor's orders!"
