I was chased at the beginning, and I got the first quick sword

Chapter 526 Prince Wu!
"It's done!!"

Chu Qing was overjoyed.

Ever since Cao Qiupu told him about Jiashe and the others' plans, he had been looking forward to seeing the Lord of the Earthly Slaughter on this occasion.

After all, Gasha had personally entered into this situation, and this commission he had given himself could not be wasted easily.

Now that I've finally met this person, all that effort of spitting out blood wasn't in vain...

Cao Qiupu's gaze also fell on Di Tu.

But what attracts the most attention is the armor worn by the Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord.

The armor is thick and has a completely different construction from normal armor, especially its color, which gives people a rather dangerous feeling.

Cao Qiupu had never met the Heavenly Slaughtering Soldier, and had only heard of the Earthly Slaughter.

But from this one encounter, he knew that this person was no easy opponent.

His martial arts skills were perhaps second only to those of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

However, if he wanted to kill Chu Qing, it would be a one-way trip.

"Looks like tonight's all set."

Cao Qiupu pondered this in his heart.

Chu Qing's voice also rang out at this moment:
"So you are the Earthly Slaughtering Soldier Lord... However, the Heavenly Slaughtering Soldier Lord has already died at my hands. Do you think you... are capable of killing me?"

"Let's not even talk about whether you used any underhanded methods or tricks when you killed Tian Sha."

"Even if you really had the ability to kill that idiot, now that you're severely injured, do you still think you can kill me?"

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord chuckled and shook his head:

"However, I am a meticulous person and I will not make a move easily. Once I do, it will be a fatal blow."

"So... just in case, the ones who came to kill you today are not only the old master of Wenxin Pavilion."

"There is one more person who will be arriving soon."

"Oh?"

Chu Qing was somewhat surprised:

"But who are these people who have come to their deaths?"

The Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion frowned slightly and looked at the Earth Slaughter Soldier Master:

"Should we act now? Delay might lead to unforeseen consequences..."

"It doesn't matter."

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord waved his hand:

"You're good at intrigue and trickery, but you're still a bit inexperienced in a direct confrontation."

"He is now fighting like a cornered beast, trying to buy time to recover his strength."

"If we take action now, we can certainly win the battle, but his final counterattack before he dies will inevitably be extremely fierce."

"But there is a saying: once, twice, thrice, and then exhaustion."

"It means that when you do something, you have to do it in one go. You can't do it for a while and then stop. Otherwise, you'll run out of energy and give up completely."

"Let's wait a bit, he won't recover much strength."

"But we can wait for a strong reinforcement."

"With the three of us joining forces, plus the remnants of the Western Regions martial arts world, and the elite Heavenly Evil Cult we brought tonight, we can help you."

"He's definitely going to die!!"

As if in response to the words of the Earth Slaughtering Soldier, a series of footsteps suddenly came from the forest, and figures appeared at the boundary between light and shadow. They were disciples of the Heavenly Evil Cult dressed in their robes.

The number of people is so large that it is difficult to count them easily.

Chu Qing estimated that there must be at least a thousand elite members of the Zhongtian Evil Cult.

As for the "fallen beauties" mentioned by the Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord, Chu Qing glanced at them; these people were not worth mentioning at all.

I'm just very curious about the expert that Tu Bingzhu mentioned:

"When will the Earth Slaughtering Soldier Lord's powerful reinforcements arrive?"

"I'm sorry to disappoint you, he'll be there in a minute."

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord chuckled and spoke.

"Alright, I'll give you a little more time then."

After Chu Qing finished speaking, she slowly closed her eyes.

The five masters from the Western Regions exchanged glances, while Meng Qianfan looked at the Earth Slaughter Soldier Master.

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord appeared indifferent, yet he was also assessing the situation.

The Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion felt a growing unease. He slowly raised one hand, about to give an order.

Then a voice came from afar:
"Only when I awoke did I realize how drunk I was; only when I descended did I marvel at how high the mountain was

Looking back on half a lifetime of martial arts, when will I finally grasp the true essence?!

The person was still far away when he spoke the first sentence, but by the time he finished speaking the last word, he was already standing opposite Chu Qing.

Chu Qing raised her eyebrows slightly, and after hearing the four sentences he had just said, she was both amused and exasperated.

I just felt it was extremely arrogant.

Drinking alcohol can make you drunk, but you won't realize you're drunk.

Only after sobering up did I realize that I had been completely drunk.

Climbing a thousand feet high, one can survey all the mountains below and see the sea of ​​clouds and waves, yet still not feel the height of the mountain.

Only by descending the Thousand-Foot Peak step by step did I realize with astonishment how incredibly high this mountain was!

What this person really wanted to say was that he had practiced martial arts for half his life and never thought that he had mastered any divine skills or wonders. Looking back on his journey, he realized that he had somehow acquired the true essence of martial arts!

However, there are countless masters in the world. Whether it is the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors or the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult, who would dare to say these words so openly?
Who dares to say that they have truly obtained the secrets of the Dharma?

However, it's just a matter of seeking higher and lower levels, trying to reach the next level.

Chu Qing stared at the person in front of her and saw that he was dressed in a white coarse linen robe, with gray hair that was disheveled and unkempt, looking unkempt.

Her appearance was rather ordinary, and because of her age, her eyelids were puffy, making her eyes appear small and narrow.

Now, this person is also scrutinizing Chu Qing with these eyes.

Then he frowned:
"Earth Butcher, do you know your crime?"

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord perhaps secretly rolled his eyes, paused for a moment, and then spoke:
"I acknowledge my guilt."

"What crime did you commit?"

The old man shook his head and swayed, seemingly not taking the Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord seriously at all, even in front of so many cult disciples.

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord understood him very well, and immediately clasped his hands in a fist and said:
"I shouldn't have let him get hurt."

"Since you knew you shouldn't have hurt him, why did you hurt him first?"

"In that case, wouldn't it be an unfair victory for me to fight him?"

The old man frowned and shouted sharply:
"You're absolutely outrageous!!!"

"My lord, forgive me."

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord knelt on one knee, clasped his hands in a fist and said:
"It was not my intention to do this, but this person's martial arts are too high. If we don't use some tricks, I'm afraid we will not be able to defeat him."

"Oh?"

The old man turned and glanced at Chu Qing, his brows furrowing slightly:

"What skills could someone so young possibly have? I have cultivated diligently for fifty years, and my martial arts have now reached an unfathomable level."

"Under the heavens, in the four regions and one state, besides the leader of the sect, who else can surpass me?"

Chu Qing was somewhat surprised by his arrogant words and couldn't help but ask:

"Judging from your self-proclaimed title... I suppose you are one of the Twelve Holy Kings of the Heavenly Evil Cult. May I ask your name?"

"You may address me as... Prince Wu!"

"To become king through 'military' means?"

Chu Qing frowned slightly, recalling the information about the Twelve Holy Kings that she had obtained from Wanbaolou.

This Prince Wu was indeed among them.

However, according to the information provided by Wanbaolou, among the Twelve Holy Kings, the most skilled in martial arts, apart from one whose name is unknown, are the Tomb King, the Buddha King, and the Evil King. Although the Martial King is also within the scope of the intelligence, there is nothing particularly special about him.

Since this Prince Wu appeared, his words and actions have demonstrated his arrogance.

Judging from this, it seems that apart from the leader of the Heavenly Evil Sect, there is no one in the world that he takes seriously.

Why doesn't Wanbaolou mention this?

Or perhaps... Wanbaolou's information was wrong?
"Exactly!"

Prince Wu stood with his hands behind his back:

"I have been obsessed with martial arts all my life, and now my cultivation is earth-shattering. I shall show myself and test what I have learned."

"I heard from Di Tu that there is a master here who has unified the martial arts world of the Southern Region and presumptuously claims to be the supreme ruler."

"That's why I've come here to learn a thing or two."

"But I never expected that he was just a young upstart... and he was even injured. I was truly disappointed."

"Come, come, I won't take advantage of your youth."

"Now I stand right here and let you strike me three times."

"Let's see what you're capable of!"

"Your Highness, you mustn't!!"

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Master and the Wenxin Pavilion Master spoke at the same time.

Prince Wu waved his hand:

"My mind is made up, you all need not say more."

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Master and the Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion exchanged a glance, both able to see the helplessness in each other's eyes.

This Prince Wu was indeed as he said, obsessed with martial arts.

He was so focused on practicing martial arts that he knew absolutely nothing about the outside world.

They had no idea just how capable Chu Qing was.

If it weren't for this person's outstanding achievements, if it weren't for the fact that the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult is now focusing on the Northern Region and the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors...

They wouldn't attack Chu Qing themselves; it would be safest to have the leader of the Love Cult intervene directly.

They had originally planned that after the Martial King emerged from seclusion, he would seek someone to verify his martial arts skills, which would serve as a powerful ally. With Chu Qing severely injured, the three of them, along with over a thousand elite members of the evil cult, could provide a strong guarantee.

Even if it takes human lives, they can wear Chu Qing down to death.

As it turned out, before they had even used up all their manpower and before the two of them had even exerted their strength, Prince Wu was already eager to challenge them to a one-on-one duel... and even wanted them to strike him three times first.

Isn't that incredibly unlucky?
Even with Chu Qing severely injured, they didn't think Prince Wu could win in this fight.

After all, although Prince Wu claimed that he was almost invincible, who knows if it was true or not?
He has always secluded himself to cultivate in seclusion, completely isolated from the outside world, and no one knows the extent of his martial arts skills.

If it were someone else, whether it were the Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord or the Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion, they wouldn't waste any words with him and would just order him to obey orders.

But he happens to be one of the Twelve Holy Kings.

Prince Wu!
The power may not be great, but the position is certainly high.

Even though the Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion controls six academies, and the Earth Slaughter Soldier has tens of thousands of members of the Heavenly Evil Cult under his command.

They dared not disobey the prince's orders.

Finally, the Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion nodded slightly and secretly transmitted his voice:

"Very well, let Prince Wu have a match first and see what they are capable of."

"rational."

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord secretly exhaled, then transmitted his voice:

"What if Prince Wu were also killed by this brat... and later the sect leader investigates and finds out I was the one who instigated Prince Wu to come here... wouldn't the sect leader......"

"The will of Heaven is unfathomable; how could I possibly know?"

The Pavilion Master of Wenxin Pavilion rolled his eyes at the Earth Slaughter Soldier Master.

The Earth Slaughter Soldier Lord sneered:
"It's alright. If Your Highness is truly at a disadvantage, then the two of us will take action directly and not worry about who Your Highness is."

"It's these three blows..."

"If things don't go smoothly, take action immediately!"

The head of Wenxin Pavilion also gave an affirmative answer.

While the two of them were secretly plotting, Chu Qing was also somewhat puzzled.

Isn't tonight a conspiracy, a trap, an assassination plot?
How did it inexplicably turn into a fair and square challenge?
Seeing Prince Wu standing there, exuding the aura of a grandmaster, even Chu Qing dared not underestimate him without knowing his background.

After all, according to the old man, this guy actually dared to compare himself to the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult.

He immediately smiled and said:
"Fine, anyway, the Southern Jianghu and your Heavenly Evil Sect are mortal enemies."

"As one of the Twelve Holy Kings of the Heavenly Evil Sect, you dare to let me strike you three times first... How can I refuse your request?"

"Hahahahaha!!!"

Prince Wu suddenly burst into wild laughter:
"Young man, you have quite the nerve, but don't blame me for not warning you."

"I have been cultivating the [Martial God Mirror] for fifty years, and my divine power naturally protects my body, allowing all techniques to be mastered effortlessly."

"If your martial arts skills are insufficient, the stronger you exert yourself, the more you will injure yourself."

"It's possible that if you go all out, you'll end up beating yourself to death first..."

"You only have one life, and it wasn't easy for you to cultivate to this level. I advise you to be careful!"

"...Judging from this, is Your Highness afraid?"

Chu Qing's lips curled up slightly.

"That's unreasonable!"

Prince Wu was immediately enraged:
"Why would I be afraid of you? Come on then!!"

As he finished speaking, he stood at an awkward, unassuming stance, his entire being exuding an aura of natural power.

Even to Chu Qing, there were few flaws.

Duan Qingchen, who had been blasted away by Chu Qing's internal force not far away, had starlight in his eyes as he gazed at Prince Wu, seemingly having gained some insight.

Chu Qing pondered for a moment, then flipped and lifted his palm with one hand.

Yin and Yang energies, wind and clouds, flowed instantly in the palm of the hand.

During this period of time, he used the Martial Arts Stele to deduce what he had learned.

Having already reviewed all the martial arts techniques, the palm strike he used was neither the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms nor simply the Cloud Dispelling Palm.

Then, a dragon's roar resounded from his palm.

Immediately following, with a single hand flip, the palm strike is delivered smoothly, yin and yang transform into a dragon, accompanied by wind and clouds.

With a roar, the dragon's cry shook the entire universe.

In the blink of an eye, the palm strike had already landed on Prince Wu's chest.

Prince Wu's pupils contracted slightly, and then he heard a muffled thud from his chest, followed by his feet being sent flying across the ground.

They went three or five zhang before regaining their footing.

Chu Qing raised her eyebrows slightly, and Prince Wu slowly exhaled and nodded slightly:
"Excellent palm technique!"

"Young man, you are so young, I have underestimated you..."

"You used all your strength in that palm strike, and you actually managed to send me flying three to five zhang. That's quite remarkable."

"I am interested in taking you as my disciple. Are you willing?"

Chu Qing's expression was strange:
"Who told you... that this palm strike I delivered was with my full strength?"

"Is not it?"

Prince Wu was stunned for a moment:
"How much force did you use?"

After hesitating for a moment, Chu Qing decided to tell the truth. Although it might hurt Prince Wu's pride, since they were enemies, it seemed that there was no need to consider the other party's mental health.

He silently extended one finger.

Prince Wu was taken aback at first, then his expression changed drastically:
"One...one part of your strength!?"
