After fifteen years of cultivation, he finally reached the pinnacle of the first rank!

Chapter 200 Giving away heads

Upon seeing this, a look of shock flashed in Hu Ruian's eyes, clearly not expecting Cheng Zhong's cold glint to be so powerful.

Just as Hu Ruian was suddenly attacked by Cheng Zhong, Wu Shang on the other side also made a move almost simultaneously, a sword light flashing like lightning, aiming straight for Shen Anran's throat.

Shen Anran's martial arts skills were inferior to Wu Shang's, and she was attacked without any warning. However, the Deer-Slaying Saber Technique she practiced was a top-tier saber technique in the martial arts world. In addition, she had been instructed by Li Musheng before, and her saber skills had improved considerably.

Therefore, she hastily slashed out with great difficulty, and this slash actually caused the opponent's sword to deviate slightly. She herself dodged very quickly and barely avoided this fatal blow.

However, although Shen Anran dodged the sword attack, she was still hit by the shockwave of the sword energy and was blasted away and flipped to the side.

Just as Shen Anran was about to crash to the ground, a hand landed on her back and caught her steadily.

Shen Anran turned her head to look at Li Musheng standing behind her:

"Your Highness..."

However, before she could finish speaking, she suddenly unleashed a powerful punch with both palms.

In an instant, a terrifying surge of true energy, like a tidal wave, burst forth and struck Li Musheng's chest without any obstruction.

A thunderous roar suddenly echoed through the courtyard, and the terrifying aftershocks of true energy shattered the blue bricks on the ground into dust.

Hu Ruian and the others reacted and immediately turned to look at the sudden change that had occurred in the scene.

At this moment, Shen Anran's lips curled slightly as she looked at Li Musheng, a very strange smile on her face.

However, her eyes revealed a complex mix of emotions, including shock, doubt, worry, and disbelief.

Li Musheng raised an eyebrow slightly, glanced at Shen Anran, whose fair hands were pressed against his chest, and suddenly said with a look of realization:
"I wondered who it was. Turns out it's someone delivering cultivation techniques to me."

Upon hearing this, Shen Anran's smile froze instantly, and the next moment, she intended to make another move.

However, at this moment, Li Musheng simply raised his hand and grabbed at the air.

At the same time, a servant who was originally in the Mei family courtyard suddenly raised his head.

Then, to his astonishment, he saw a hand formed from the true energy of heaven and earth suddenly appear above his head and grab him directly.

Instinctively, the servant's vast martial arts energy suddenly erupted, and he hurriedly prepared to retreat.

However, he was horrified to discover that the space around him was imprisoned by a terrifying aura, and he was as if he were trapped in a quagmire, unable to move at all.

"How can it be?"

The servant looked horrified, and the next moment, the hand of true energy grabbed him and flew into the sky, landing in the courtyard where Hu Ruian and the others were in the blink of an eye.

Then, he slammed the servant into the ground with his palm, pressing him down into the dust that had turned into blue bricks.

At this moment, Shen Anran was able to move again. She suddenly turned around and looked at the unfamiliar servant who had fallen from the sky behind her, and immediately exclaimed in surprise:

"How is this going……"

"I couldn't control myself at all just now, and... I even attacked His Highness?"

Upon hearing this, Wu Shang and Cheng Zhong also realized what was happening, looked down at their palms, and were both filled with shock.

"I didn't mean to attack. I was completely out of control just now, as if someone was manipulating me." "That wasn't my strength either. I couldn't possibly have hurt Lord Hu."

Wu Shang and Cheng Zhong spoke one after the other. Cao Gaoshan, who hadn't made a move from beginning to end, was now filled with doubt and confusion, clearly bewildered by what had just happened.

Hu Ruian frowned and looked at the servant in the courtyard, as if he had realized something.

At this moment, Li Musheng narrowed his eyes slightly, not looking at the servant on the ground, but at Shen Anran in front of him, and said:

"Miss Shen, now that you can move freely, shouldn't you put your hand down?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Anran turned around, her eyes sparkling with a gentle, watery light, while the corners of her lips curved into a barely perceptible smile.

She feigned confusion as she withdrew her slender hand from Li Musheng's chest and softly uttered an "Oh".

Then, she calmly reached out and smoothed her long, raven-black hair, which cascaded down like a waterfall, without showing any embarrassment whatsoever.

Li Musheng's eyelids twitched. If he had even half the shamelessness of the girl in front of him in his previous life, he wouldn't have only dated seven girlfriends.

……

"Who...are you?"

At this moment, the old man on the ground struggled to raise his head, revealing an extremely ordinary, aged face.

He trembled all over and could only make extremely weak sounds. Li Musheng's palm strike had shattered his dantian meridians in an instant, and even the puppet threads that he used to control Shen Anran and the others were all severed.

He was powerless to resist, even though his martial arts cultivation was extremely high, his Formless Divine Skill had reached a state of perfection, and his martial arts true energy was vast and boundless.

However, when his opponent attacked, he was unable to use any of his skills or strength, and in the end, he could only be captured and slaughtered at his mercy.

Li Musheng withdrew his gaze from Shen Anran, glanced at the Elder Wuxiang, then walked up to him and stopped, saying:
“I guess you’ve come for your disciple. This Formless Puppet Technique immediately reminded me that you and your disciple seem to be missing a technique from me.”

As he spoke, Li Musheng raised his hand and flicked out a life-and-death talisman that fell into the other party's body.

Previously, when the Elder Wuxiang was manipulating Cheng Zhong to make a move, Li Musheng had already discovered him.

He couldn't recall the identity of the Elder Wuxiang for a moment, until Shen Anran attacked him, at which point he remembered the scholar who had impersonated a prince, and that the scholar's junior sister had sent a signal before her death.

Li Musheng had actually forgotten about this matter, and he really didn't expect that the other party's master would actually come to his door.

What else can he say about this?
It can only be described as a gift of martial arts techniques sent from afar; the gift is small, but the sentiment is profound.

Next, the old man Wuxiang experienced the agony of being worse off than dead.

Originally, after learning from the Han family that there was a master among Li Musheng's group, and that he had even killed the head of the Baili family with a single finger strike, they were shocked.

The old man Wuxiang was extremely cautious, never showing his face from beginning to end, and choosing to make his move when Li Musheng and the others were most relaxed.

In fact, to avoid being detected by that expert, he used a feint from the very beginning, not directly attacking Li Musheng, but deliberately confusing the situation, until finally revealing his true intentions through Shen Anran.

He thought he had covered his tracks perfectly, but he misjudged the most important thing. He never expected that the expert who killed Baili Changfeng was actually Li Musheng himself!

Even now, the old man Wuxiang still can't understand how the eighth prince of Dali, who is not even twenty years old, could possess such terrifying martial arts strength. It's all too unbelievable!
