The First Sword of the Universe

Chapter 156 Yin Tianzheng: We Can’t Wait
Dozens of imposing men were sitting in the hall.

They stared at each other, with dissatisfaction and resentment on their faces and in their eyes, as if everyone around them was a competitor.

In fact, these masters from various rebel forces in the north not only work together but also compete with each other sometimes.

The reason why they were able to gather together at this time was only because the various rebel forces had been wiped out by King Ruyang and could no longer survive, so they took the risk to come and prepare to assassinate King Ruyang.

The White-browed Eagle King of the Sky Eagle Cult, as the Dharma King belonging to the Ming Cult, is the only one with the prestige to control these unruly masters.

When Xu Xingchen stepped over the threshold, everyone in the hall thought that another rebel leader had arrived, so they stopped arguing and looked over.

When I saw clearly that it was just a young man wearing coarse cloth and there was no murderous aura on him, I felt a little disappointed.

As a result, the White-browed Eagle King suddenly spoke, giving them a surprise.

"Hahahaha, nephew Xu, you're finally here."

"As long as you are here, our plan to assassinate King Ruyang will have a 50% chance of success!"

Then, in the astonished eyes of the crowd, Yin Tianzheng stood up and stepped forward, grabbing the arm of the young man who had just entered the room, looking around and said loudly: "Let me introduce the identity and origin of my nephew Xu to everyone."

"Nephew Xu is one of the four great Dharma Kings of the Ming Cult, who is as famous as me, and the distant nephew of the Golden Lion King."

When the people around heard the words "Golden Lion King", they immediately cheered.

The owner of that name, although he had been "dead" for almost three years, still shocked the followers of the Ming Cult.
Yin Tianzheng ignored everyone's exclamations and continued, "He joined our Ming Cult under the leadership of the Golden Lion King since he was a child."

"I still remember that when we were at the headquarters, the Golden Lion King would always sigh to me every time he drank with me, saying that his distant nephew was a one-in-a-million martial arts genius."

"He also said that when Junior Brother Xu grows up, he will let him go to the main altar to pay homage to the leader."

"Unfortunately, many unexpected events occurred later, and the Golden Lion King's original plan had to be abandoned."

"A few days ago, I met Junior Brother Xu by chance. I learned that he had now achieved great success in martial arts, so I invited him to come and discuss important matters with us."

"With the addition of Junior Brother Xu, our plan to assassinate King Ruyang will be more certain."

The masters of the various rebel armies around were listening to the White-browed Eagle King's story. Many of them had a flash of enlightenment in their eyes, and they obviously believed what Yin Tianzheng said.

There were also a few people who, although they believed that the highly respected White-browed Eagle King would not lie to them, were reluctant to agree with the words "as long as this young man joins, we will be more confident."

Soon, someone jumped out and clasped his fists to Yin Tianzheng and said, "Eagle King, we welcome this brother to join us."

"However, since the Eagle King said that he is a rare martial arts genius, and now he has even mastered martial arts, I can't help but be curious and want to learn from him. Eagle King, is this possible?"

The White-browed Eagle King said loudly: "For those of us who practice martial arts, fighting and sparring is a common occurrence. Why not?"

He turned to the young man beside him and said, "Nephew Xu, please make a move and let everyone see how powerful you are."

"In that case, I'll show you my ugliness!" Xu Xingchen said this, but his mind was racing: "Uncle Yin, is he flattering me? No, that's not right. He knows my martial arts, and this behavior is more like helping me become famous."

The White-browed Eagle King stepped aside, and Xu Xingchen stood in the middle of the hall, ten feet away from the challenger.

The masters around became agitated when they saw this kind of competition. If it weren't for the White-browed Eagle King standing there to shock them, I'm afraid these guys would have shouted loudly.

These people have charged into battle and fought bravely in various rebel armies. They are all brave and daring. Normally, they are lawless and wanton in their respective places. Now that they have gathered here and have not fought each other, they have shown enough restraint.

"Young Master Xu, please!" The man who was challenging him clasped his fists, then pounced over like a cheetah with a fierce aura.

Xu Xingchen was still thinking about the intentions of Yin Tianzheng and Xie Xun in his mind. He turned his feet inadvertently, dodged the attack from the oncoming person, and at the same time, came behind the other person.

A palm gently pressed on the man's vest.

The man only felt a strong force coming from behind, pushing his body forward a few steps and almost bumping into a hall pillar.

The man was still unconvinced, so he turned around and rushed forward again, faster and with more powerful punches. A powerful energy burst out of him with astonishing power.

However, Xu Xingchen's right hand was like a fish swimming in the water, light and agile, following the waves, penetrating through layers of energy obstruction, bypassing the blocking of two arms, and imprinting on the opponent's chest again.

The power surged, and the man couldn't help himself and took seven steps back before he stopped retreating.

Both attacks were repelled by the young man in front of him.

The challenger knew that the gap between the two sides was quite large, so he did not dare to continue attacking. His face flushed, he put away his stance, clasped his fists and said, "Young Master Xu, your martial arts are indeed extraordinary. I am no match for you!"

Xu Xingchen smiled and nodded: "Thank you!"

After the man went back to sit down, the White-browed Eagle King glanced at the people on both sides and laughed, "Take advantage of this rare opportunity. If anyone wants to come forward to compete, please do so!"

Hearing this, two more people jumped out from the hall on the left.

They were a pair of brothers, using a set of combined attack techniques. Their bodies flashed, and their fists and feet were like cannons, making the air puff and muffled sounds with extraordinary momentum.

But no matter how fast they are or how powerful their punches and kicks are, it is useless if they cannot hit the person.

After a few moves, Xu Xingchen felt bored, so he slapped each of them and beat them back.

Perhaps because they saw that he was unwilling to hurt others, people kept coming out to challenge him, but in the end, none of them could make a single move and were defeated. When nearly half of the people in the left and right halls failed in their challenges, no one was willing to come out anymore.

They also have self-esteem. No matter how strong or weak their martial arts skills are, they are all defeated by a palm. Although this is not shameful, it is also very boring.

However, this group of unruly guys finally became convinced by the young man standing in the hall.

This meeting ended quickly with the completion of the competition.

This old house is not very large and cannot accommodate dozens of people in the hall, but the owner of the house has already bought all the neighboring courtyards on both sides.

The three houses are connected into one through two secret doors.
Everyone dispersed and went to their neighbors on the left and right.

Xu Xingchen and Yin Tianzheng came to another room and sat down on the left and right. Servants brought them tea and then left.

After the door was closed, Xu Xingchen asked directly: "Uncle Yin, are you and Uncle Xie planning something?"

Yin Tianzheng was startled and asked, "Did you figure it out?"

Xu Xingchen smiled bitterly and said, "Your arrangement is so obvious, how can I not see it?!"

A thoughtful look flashed across Yin Tianzheng's eyes, and then he said seriously: "Nephew Xu, well, I'll still call you that!"

"Nephew Xu, if Brother Xie and I wanted to push you to be the leader of our Ming Cult, what would you think?"

Hearing this, Xu Xingchen was shocked for a long time before he frowned and said, "Uncle Yin, are you kidding me?"

"The Ming Cult is full of talented people and masters. Any one of them you pick out is a well-known figure in the martial arts world."

"You can elect one person from among yourselves to be your leader."

"Why did you choose an outsider like me?"

"I just can't figure out the reason behind this."

Yin Tianzheng nodded and praised: "Not bad, not arrogant or impatient, you can quickly calm down and raise questions."

After a moment of silence, he continued, "Brother Xie was the first to bring up this matter. When I first heard about it, I also thought it was ridiculous."

"Since when did I need an outsider to take over as the leader of the Ming Cult?"

"For this, Brother Xie and I argued for a long time, until later, after chatting with you, we had a duel."

"I just realized that Brother Xie's vision is really accurate."

"With your martial arts and strategies, if you ascend to the position of leader with the support of our two Dharma Kings, you will probably be able to quickly accomplish the great feat of expelling the Tartars and recovering our land."

Xu Xingchen shook his head and said, "This statement still cannot solve the confusion in my heart."

After a pause, he added: "Besides, this reason is not enough."

Yin Tianzheng suddenly sighed: "Neither of us can wait any longer"

Xu Xingchen was stunned and asked, "What do you mean?"

Yin Tianzheng looked at Xu Xingchen and said seriously: "Brother Xie wanted to seek revenge on his master. He has been looking for more than 20 years and he can't wait any longer."

"I am the oldest among the four great Dharma Kings."

"My lifelong wish is to drive out the Tartars and recover our country"

"But I'm afraid I won't see that day until I die."

"so."

“When we meet a person who is gifted with talent, a good horse, or someone who is likely to achieve great success, we want to hold on to him tightly and hold on to that glimmer of hope.”

Xu Xingchen was speechless after hearing this, and said with some difficulty: "Uncle Yin, I still think that the idea of the two of you is a bit forced and will not work."

"Am I really suitable to be the leader of the Ming Cult?"

"After I become the emperor, will others be convinced?"

"When the time comes, I'm afraid your headquarters will have to send someone over to question us."

Yin Tianzheng laughed: "In order to make your identity and background more suitable, we let you pretend to be Brother Xie's distant nephew, who joined the Ming Cult since childhood and has been practicing martial arts in the mountains, and has never ventured out."

At this point, a gleam of light gathered in his eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Don't worry, with our two great Dharma Kings endorsing you, no one will doubt your identity."

Xu Xingchen listened to Yin Tianzheng's "Arabian Nights" and didn't know what words to use to describe his feelings at the moment.

"It's just incomprehensible."
