Laughing at the Heavens: From Flying Knife Skills to Shattering the Void

Chapter 178 Zuo Lengchan's Purpose
"I heard you want to kill me?"

Lin Ping'an's playful voice suddenly came from behind him.

Di Xiu was stunned on the spot.

Then cold sweat began to seep out of his forehead and his eyes became filled with fear.

The shadow of a famous tree.

To ordinary people in the martial arts world, Lin Ping'an is just famous, and that's his reputation as a hero.

But to him and to the people of Songshan School, Lin Ping'an is the god of death and a death warrant.

Because too many disciples of the Songshan School died at the hands of Lin Pingan.

I can’t count them all.

Among the Thirteen Guardians, the top ones who were ranked and stronger than him all died at the hands of Lin Pingan.

Now that he suddenly met Lin Ping'an, how could he not panic?

I even felt that death was approaching.

Even Lu Bai and others died at the hands of Lin Pingan, how could he be his opponent?
I'm afraid they don't even have the strength to resist.

Di Xiu turned around stiffly and saw the handsome young man behind him. He forced a smile on his face and said, "It turns out that it is Young Master Lin. I am Di Xiu from Songshan Sect. Nice to meet you, Young Master Lin."

Di Xiu's expression was stiff, but he had to speak.

At the same time, he also directly revealed his identity.

After all, since Lin Ping'an has found him, it is impossible for him not to know his identity. There is no point in hiding his identity at this moment.

"I heard you want to kill me?"

Lin Pingan asked again.

Di Xiu's face froze, and he quickly laughed awkwardly: "Master Lin, you are joking. Master Lin is a master of martial arts. How can I have such ability?"

"So you mean Lin heard it wrong?"

Lin Pingan had an amused look on his face.

This made Di Xiu sweat coldly and he became more nervous. He quickly apologized with a smile: "How could Master Lin be wrong? There must be some misunderstanding. Do you have any instructions for me?"

"You are from Songshan, and I am from Huashan. How can it be my turn to give you orders? Brother Di really likes to joke around."

Lin Pingan chuckled, but Di Xiu just had a stiff expression and didn't know how to respond.

"I came here today to ask you something. I want to know the whereabouts of my brothers. Are they alive or dead?"

Lin Pingan stopped talking nonsense and asked directly.

There is no intention of covering up.

Di Xiu's face froze slightly upon hearing this, and then he showed a hint of embarrassment, "Young Master Lin, you are joking. How would I know the whereabouts of your sect's disciples?"

"A wise man doesn't speak in jargons, and I don't want to talk nonsense either. We are all smart people, so there is no need to pretend not to understand. It's meaningless."

Lin Ping'an glanced at Di Xiu calmly, "I have no grudge against you, I hope you won't make a mistake."

Lin Ping'an spoke calmly, but this made Di Xiu tense up.

Although he knew that he had no chance to attack in front of Lin Ping'an, he was still secretly on guard.

Looking at Lin Ping'an's indifferent face, Di Xiu tightened and loosened his fists, his eyes flickering, and it was obvious that he was struggling inside.

After all, he didn't know whether he should say it or not.

Once he told the truth, he didn't know what the consequences would be.

After thinking for a long time, Di Xiu suddenly lost his momentum and lowered his head. "I didn't participate in this matter, but I heard that most of the masters followed the leader to hunt down Yue Buqun, so those disciples from Huashan escaped, but I don't know whether they are alive or dead."

"When I returned to Songshan, the leader assigned me a mission to go down the mountain. I didn't know much about this."

Di Xiu said truthfully.

"Since you don't know, I'll have to trouble you to come with me."

Lin Ping'an narrowed his eyes slightly, then chuckled and said.

"Go? Where?"

Di Xiu's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, we're going to Songshan."

Lin Pingan chuckled, "Zuo Lengchan killed my senior brother. Now that I am the acting head of Huashan, I should seek justice from Zuo Lengchan for my Huashan disciples."

"You want to cause trouble for the leader?"

Di Xiu was stunned for a moment, his face full of astonishment, then he reacted and his face changed, "You, what did you say? You are now the acting leader of Huashan? Then, what about Yue Buqun?"

"This is my Huashan business, you don't need to know, now let's go."

Lin Ping'an picked up Di Xiu and disappeared.

Not long after, Lin Ping'an returned to Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan.

"We captured someone from the Songshan Sect, but unfortunately we didn't ask about our brothers. Now we can only go to Songshan to find Zuo Lengchan."

Lin Pingan sighed lightly and said in a deep voice.

"Then go find Zuo Lengchan."

Yue Lingshan immediately raised her arms and shouted loudly.

Ning Zhongze, who was standing by, hesitated for a moment before nodding, "Shi Daizi and the others must be rescued. I'll go with you."

The group of four set off immediately.

……

a few days later.

Songshan.

Nun Dingxian and Nun Dingyi came together.

Not long after, Mr. Mo Da also appeared alone.

Finally, there are Yu Jizi and others from Taishan Sect.

"Thank you all for coming from afar. Unfortunately, Zuo is blind and cannot greet you. I hope you can forgive me."

Zuo Lengchan sat in the first seat and bowed while speaking.

"Are you blind?"

Hearing these words suddenly, Master Dingxian, Master Dingyi, Mr. Mo Da, Yu Jizi and others looked over in astonishment.

But Zuo Lengchan's eyes were covered with a black cloth, and he didn't look fake.

Apparently, this was also the first time they heard the news.

"Leader Zuo, how come you are blind? What happened? Who has such ability?"

Yu Jizi immediately stepped forward and asked anxiously.

After all, he has already surrendered to Zuo Lengchan. If Zuo Lengchan fails, he will also be in trouble. His position as the leader of Taishan Sect will also be unstable, and he will be liquidated sooner or later.

Therefore, he wanted Zuo Lengchan to be stronger than anyone else.

Mo Da, Master Ding Xian and the others were also stunned, and then they all sneered, "This is also the result of evil being punished."

Master Dingyi said directly.

However, several people still had some doubts about this. After all, Zuo Lengchan was insidious and cunning, so it was not impossible that he pretended to be blind to make them careless.

So I felt happy but also full of doubts.

"Zuo Lengchan, your strength is the best among the Five Mountains. How many people in this world can hurt you? Could it be that Dongfang Bubai has come down the mountain?"

Nun Dingxian sneered and said calmly.

"I know you all have doubts, but I won't use this matter to make fun of myself. My two eyes were harmed by the master and disciple from Huashan."

Zuo Lengchan snorted coldly, looking grim.

When they heard Zuo Lengchan mention Huashan, Master Dingxian and others became more alert.

"Oh? Is this happening?"

Nun Dingxian was surprised. "But Songshan and Huashan have already reconciled, so why would Sect Leader Zuo fight with the people from Huashan?"

Master Ding Xian asked with pretended curiosity.

Zuo Lengchan's face twitched a few times, and he could naturally hear the sarcasm in Master Ding Xian's words.

"That Huashan Sect kid killed many of my fellow apprentices. I will not be a human being if I don't take revenge. But today I am here to discuss the matter of Yue Buqun. Do you know how my eye was injured by Yue Buqun?"

Zuo Lengchan immediately chose to change the subject.

"It turns out that your eye was blinded by Sect Leader Yue. I didn't expect Sect Leader Yue's swordsmanship to be so advanced."

Master Dingyi said with admiration.

Zuo Lengchan's face became more and more ugly. In the past, he would have taught Ding Yi a lesson, but now he endured it. "How can Yue Buqun's strength compare with mine? He just practiced the Sword Manual of Exorcism and plotted against me. Moreover, he was able to break my Songshan School's swordsmanship. There must be something strange about this."

"Zuo Lengchan, there is no need to say these words. Everyone knows what the Songshan Sect has done to other sects like us. We are not here to discuss anything with you today, and we have nothing to discuss with you."

"The reason I came here is to tell you that we can do the same as what your Songshan Sect did. So many innocent disciples of my Hengshan Sect died and were injured. Although I am a monk, Buddha is also angry and must settle accounts with you Songshan Sect."

Nun Dingxian said calmly.

Mo Da also spoke up at this time, "I have never forgotten what happened to Junior Brother Liu. It is absolutely impossible for Songshan to seek cooperation from us to deal with Huashan."

Faced with the direct rejection from the two, Zuo Lengchan did not show any abnormality. He had already expected such a result.

After all, he knew best what the Songshan Sect had done.

If Mo Da and Ding Xian would directly agree to fight Huashan together, that would be unexpected and would arouse suspicion.

"You two should not jump to conclusions."

Zuo Lengchan smiled slightly and spoke calmly, "Now in Huashan, not only Yue Buqun can break my Songshan swordsmanship, but even Ning Zhongze and Lin Ping'an can do it. Don't you have any guesses?"

"What do you mean?"

Nun Dingxian raised her eyebrows and said coldly.

Zuo Lengchan did not speak, but glanced at Yu Jizi, who immediately understood what he meant and stood up and said, "Alliance Leader Zuo, are you saying that the move that can break the Songshan Sword School's sword technique was not created by Yue Buqun and others?"

"Not only that, I suspect that not only my Songshan swordsmanship, but also the swordsmanship of several other schools, they all have ways to break it."

Zuo Lengchan said meaningfully.

After all, Lao Denuo was Yue Buqun's second disciple, so he must have heard a lot of information before.

Although the authenticity of many pieces of information cannot be confirmed, it does not prevent Zuo Lengchan from making speculations.

Sure enough, after hearing this, Mo Da, Ding Xian and others frowned.

But Ding Xian soon said calmly: "These are your own guesses, right, Zuo Lengchan?"

"You can't say such things without any evidence. What's more, the sword techniques of our sects are not secret. If someone wants to break them with all their might, it is not impossible. So you want to use this to exchange for help from our two sects. This is absolutely impossible."

Master Ding Xian snorted and said.

"Have you all forgotten the secret recorded by the sect a hundred years ago?"

Zuo Lengchan suddenly spoke.

"What do you mean?"

Mo Da said directly.

"I once fought with Lin Ping'an. He used a sword technique that was not from Huashan. It was more like the Five Divine Swords of Hengshan."

Zuo Lengchan turned his head to face Mo Da, and before Mo Da could speak, he continued, "Besides this, I also saw Hengshan's hidden needle in cotton in his hands. These are the secrets of the two sects. Some swordsmanship has even been lost by their own sects, but it can be reproduced in the hands of that kid. Don't you care about the secrets of the inheritance of the two sects?"

Zuo Lengchan raised the corners of his lips slightly and asked leisurely.

Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Ding Xian and Mo Da both frowned.

However, due to Zuo Lengchan's reputation, they only believed three-tenths of what he said.

"Zuo Lengchan, our Hengshan Five Divine Swords have been lost in our sect for many years. How is it possible that you said Lin Ping'an knows this sword technique? Moreover, what does this have to do with what you said before about Huashan knowing the trick to crack it?"

Mo Da asked indifferently.

"I will naturally explain the inside story one by one."

Zuo Lengchan heard the softening in Mo Da's tone and laughed secretly in his heart. He was afraid that these two people would remain indifferent and completely regard what he said as a lie. As long as they softened, even if they only believed it a little, he would be confident that he could convince them.

Thinking of this, Zuo Lengchan continued, "I know you are suspicious and think I am lying, but I will never be wrong about the swordsmanship that boy displayed."

Zuo Lengchan had already walked down the stairs with his sword in hand as he spoke. “To be honest, I have never seen the Hengshan Swordsmanship that he used, but it looks more profound than the existing Hengshan School’s Thirteen Forms of Clouds and Mists. It is more like the Heavenly Blessing Cloud Qi of the Hengshan Five Divine Swords. I believe Mr. Mo Da knows more about the Hengshan Swordsmanship than I do.”

As he spoke, Zuo Lengchan suddenly drew his sword and actually imitated the sword technique that Lin Ping'an had used.

Although the artistic conception is far inferior, at least the appearance looks very similar.

Seeing this scene, Mo Da couldn't help but stand up, his eyes widened in shock.

Nun Dingxian, who was standing by, saw this scene and raised her eyebrows silently, feeling puzzled.

"Looking at Mr. Mo Da's expression, could it be that the sword moves displayed by Zuo Lengchan are really the Five Divine Swords of Hengshan?"

Nun Dingxian frowned and began to have doubts in her heart.

"Sister, this is absolutely impossible. As far as I know, the Hengshan Five Swords have been lost for a hundred years. During the fight against the Demon Sect, most of the Hengshan masters died, and the inheritance of the Five Mountains sects was cut off. The Hengshan Sect's Five Swords were completely lost after that battle. How could someone from the Huashan Sect, especially Lin Ping'an who has only been a disciple for a few months, possibly know them?"

Master Dingyi looked unconvinced.

Nun Dingxian didn't say anything, but just looked at Mo Da. Mo Da knew that he had lost his composure, so he sat down again and nodded, saying, "I have to say that Zuo Lengchan, you are really amazing. You actually used some of the Hengshan Five Divine Swords."

"My Hengshan Five Divine Swords have long been lost, and my Hengshan School's Thirteen Forms of Clouds and Mists have a special relationship with the Heavenly Pillar Cloud Qi in the Five Divine Swords, so this is nothing strange."

Mo Da said calmly.

No matter what he thought in his heart, at least at this moment he couldn't give Zuo Lengchan a chance.

It is even more impossible to join forces with Zuo Lengchan and the Songshan School.

Otherwise, wouldn’t Liu Zhengfeng’s death have been in vain?

Zuo Lengchan was not discouraged. Instead, he changed his moves and suddenly used another move, turning around and slashing with a sword.

"This is……"

Seeing this sword, Mo Da completely lost his composure and said in shock: "Wild Goose Returns to Zhurong? No, this is absolutely impossible!"

Mo Da said, shaking his head.

Because this move is the strongest among the Five Divine Swords of Hengshan, even back then few people were able to learn it, and naturally few people have seen it.

He only knew a little from the various books left by his predecessors.

That’s why it can be recognized.
