Dimension Paradise, I am a summoning apostle

Chapter 520 A Gathering at the Rotten Chessboard
With so many guests arriving, Mu Yehou had no choice but to put down his chess game and get up to greet them.

In fact, most of the people who came were from the surrounding area; very few were well-known figures in the martial arts world.

After all, Muye Fox himself is not particularly outstanding.

"Young Master Xuanji, it is an honor to have you here. I am sorry for not welcoming you properly." This time, Mu Yehu was receiving a very important person.

The mysterious young master Yuwen He.

If Jiang Buqi is the number one among the middle-aged generation, then Xuanji Gongzi is the number one among the younger generation.

Chu Danqing and Li Qingying's gazes, however, fell on the woman following the young master Xuanji.

"Holy crap?! Brother Chu, I ran to the other side!" Li Qingying was so shocked she couldn't speak coherently.

"What do you mean you ran off to the other side? That means there's a you on the other side... no, I almost got you confused." Chu Danqing complained, then said, "That means there's a woman on the other side who looks exactly like you."

Xuanji Gongzi, his retainers, and the woman also noticed Chu Danqing and Li Qingying.

The other person also frowned; this was far too much of a coincidence.

However, out of politeness, he spoke with Kinoko first, and then came over after Kinoko had gone to entertain the others.

"Greetings, sir. My name is Yuwen He." Yuwen He bowed.

Chu Danqing returned the greeting and then introduced himself.

Upon hearing this, Yuwen He's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "So it's Master Nanshan. I've long admired your name."

He had heard of his name, but the claim of "long-standing admiration" was false.

The fact that the evil-eliminating tortoise had already been known was not the key point.

Not long ago, it was said that this Master Nanshan single-handedly fought against the Crown Prince's personal guards, and even killed the top expert Cao Jing amidst the army, and then defied the world to kill the Crown Prince of Linjiang.

His fame spread far and wide, and it was said that even a master like Jiang Buqi couldn't withstand three moves from him.

It has vaguely acquired the title of the best in the world.

But now that I see him, he's just all talk and no action. His stance is unstable and his body is sloppy. He doesn't look like someone with that kind of skill at all.

Chu Danqing was unaware of these matters, as he was either traveling or meditating along the way.

He had long forgotten about the +500% reputation spread effect of Dragon Bone.

Since it doesn't directly increase combat power, it's not very useful to him.

"You're too kind," Chu Danqing replied, then began to speak, "What a coincidence! My sister and this young lady look so alike."

"My daughter comes from a wealthy family; what connection could she possibly have with someone like you, the sister of a foreigner?" Suddenly, a voice rang out, saying, "How could you possibly presume to associate with my family?"

It was one of Yuwen He's retainers who spoke up.

“Young Master Xuanji, you can’t even control a dog. It dares to bark wildly when its master is talking. It seems to have the tendency to devour its master. I think you should have its teeth pulled as soon as possible to avoid being bitten.” Chu Danqing said with a gloomy face.

Before he could finish speaking, Da Bao immediately took action.

He arrived in front of the guard in an instant and punched him in the left and right cheeks, knocking out his teeth on the spot.

After finishing these tasks, Da Bao returned to Chu Danqing's side.

"No need to thank me. Young Master Xuanji is too proud to take action against someone who only barks like a dog. I'm just a rough man, so I won't stand on ceremony." Chu Danqing finished speaking and snorted coldly.

Xuanji Gongzi's eyes were filled with shock, and his contempt for Chu Danqing turned into fear.

The Nanshan Master in front of us is indeed all show and no substance, but the man beside him is a top expert.

Actually, he was also annoyed. He wished he hadn't let his family play the good cop/bad cop role in the future.

You should first befriend him, and then try to win that simple-minded man over to your side and make him an asset to your great cause.

Now that he has lost face, he has no choice but to find another way.

Seeing Chu Danqing's attitude, Young Master Xuanji could not say anything more and could only leave with his men.

Li Qingying looked the group up and down, and after they left, she whispered to Chu Danqing, "Brother Chu, that woman also cultivates the Heavenly Mirror Divine Art."

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing subtly sized him up again before saying, "The other person in the Jade Cave of Purple Gold Mountain."

"In my opinion, she might be your cousin or sister."

Upon hearing this, Li Qingying also fell silent.

It's alright if it's a cousin, but if it were a maternal cousin, there would be internal strife in Xilong.

The problem definitely won't be with Li Qingying; it will only be with the current Emperor of Xilong.

"Let's leave this matter aside for now." Li Qingying didn't intend to dwell on it.

As long as her grandmother, Empress Dowager Xilong, doesn't reveal this matter herself, there isn't really a big problem.

As for the woman? Let's talk about her when she arrives at the Xilong Imperial Palace.

But that's impossible, since the other party is from Donglin.

If we can actually reach the Xilong Imperial Palace, then it's almost certain that Xilong has been captured by Donglin.

Even if you find out at this point, there's nothing to worry about.

Chu Danqing also realized the seriousness of the situation, so she immediately changed the subject and turned her attention to the newcomers not far away.

Three people arrived, their eyes constantly glancing towards Chu Danqing.

"Do we know each other?" Chu Danqing asked first.

Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man in the lead merely sneered and replied, "Master Nanshan, you seem to have a bad memory."

“They killed my fourth brother, and now they claim not to recognize us. How interesting.”

"Sorry, I've killed quite a few people lately, especially a bunch of those under the Crown Prince of Linjiang. Who is your fourth brother?" Chu Danqing retorted. The people were indeed killed by Xiong Zhigang and his soldiers, but the blame was to be placed on Chu Danqing.

Since he received the reward, the murder should definitely be attributed to him as well.

“The ferocious alligator turtle, Yue Tianba,” the man said.

Upon hearing this, Chu Danqing immediately remembered it.

"Oh, it's him." Chu Danqing glanced at the three of them: "So the three of you are Xun Chou, the Heavenly Corpse Demon Dragon; Wu Xiuniang, the Infant-Snatching Ghost Mother; and Tie Jiumian, the Peach Blossom Black Crane."

"You've come at the perfect time. The three of you should go and keep your fourth brother company."

The Four Evils are notorious scoundrels in the martial arts world.

The eldest brother was a murderer who killed countless people; the second and third brothers were human traffickers, one abducting children and the other kidnapping women.

Da Bao had already activated his Killing Form and Tear Claws, and was about to make a move.

But Kinoko quickly jumped out to stop him.

"Young hero, young hero, please stop!" Mu Yehu hurriedly said, "I have overcome many difficulties to reach this 'Rotten Chessboard' situation. Please settle this score later."

"Young hero, please spare me from bloodshed, for the sake of my advanced age and impending death."

Mu Yehou was practically kneeling down to Chu Danqing.

The reason he didn't kneel was because Chu Danqing grabbed him.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing sighed and said, "Fine, I'll give you face."

Then he looked at the three men and said, "If you're so capable, don't run away after we're done."

It doesn't matter if they ran away, Da Bao has already remembered their taste.

The three men had gloomy eyes. They hadn't come here for Chu Danqing, nor had they expected to encounter him here.

Tingxiang Pavilion spent a fortune to hire them to kill Duan Zhilu's mistress, the Prince of Nanzhao.

Yes, it wasn't Duan Zhilu who was killed, but his mistress.

The client confidently stated that Duan Zhilu had come at the invitation.

As it turned out, Duan Zhilu didn't even show up.

However, meeting Chu Danqing was a good opportunity to settle old scores.

They could tell that Chu Danqing didn't know martial arts and relied entirely on that simple-minded guard.

The other party was a foreigner, and he was confident that he could keep everyone present from watching, not to mention that the other party had offended Young Master Xuanji.

He has no advantage now. If he can hold off the guards, the remaining two will be enough to kill this Nanshan master.

Just as they were about to make a move, the Heavenly Corpse Demon Dragon Xun Chou's gaze sharpened, and he immediately stretched out his hands to stop the two.

His gaze fell on the mountain road.

"Junior brother, junior brother." A voice with a half-smile came: "You really made your senior brother search for you so hard."

A figure in blue ascended the mountain like a ghost.

The expressions of everyone present changed drastically; the newcomer was actually a top expert.

The problem is that among all the top masters in the world, there is no such person.

When everyone looked again, they saw that one of Da Bao's sharp claws had already embedded itself in Qing Ying's hand.

The green-clad figure actually attacked Mu Yehu with deadly force as soon as he arrived. If he hadn't been nearby pleading with Chu Danqing, that palm strike to the head would have shattered his entire skull.

It was precisely because this palm strike was so powerful that it would affect Chu Danqing that Da Bao made his move.

Qingying withdrew her hand and took more than ten steps back, her eyes filled with apprehension as she looked at Dabao.

Upon arriving here, everyone finally saw who it was.

It turned out to be a young man.

Upon seeing this person, Mu Yehou gritted his teeth and said, "Wu Ziqing, you dare to come back!"

Upon hearing this, someone recognized the person.

"It's the Mandala Poison Master from the Western Regions. He travels around the Western Regions for many years and was already a first-rate expert more than ten years ago," someone shouted.

Xuanji Gongzi's eyes flickered, and he gained a new understanding of Da Bao's strength.

The person who could so easily block the opponent and make the Mandala Poison Lord so wary was definitely not an ordinary person.

Wouldn't it be wonderful to recruit a top-tier expert who isn't very bright but is extremely loyal?

"I never expected that someone as down-on-his-luck as you could actually hire a top expert to oversee things for you." Wu Ziqing said with resentment, "I was lucky back then, and I'm lucky again now."

"How come everything in the world benefits you?" Wu Ziqing said through gritted teeth.

Seeing this, Chu Danqing realized that the gathering was almost turning into a feud.

Mu Yehou said, "You bastard, you betray your master and ancestors, and you dare to talk about luck? Humph!"

In the past, Wu Ziqing would have naturally tried to argue his way out of it, but now that he is a top expert, he is not afraid at all.

"So what? That old man kept the One Heart Sutra hidden from me, just to favor you, his junior brother." Wu Ziqing said disdainfully, "And now? Even without the One Heart Sutra, I have achieved what I have today."

"You rotten schemer, are you trying to find a successor for that old man?"

"Only I can take this inheritance. I'll kill anyone who tries to take it, ha." Wu Ziqing sneered, glancing at everyone present before skipping over Chu Danqing and Da Bao.
