Zhu Tian: Starting from the Laughing Proud Yue Buqun

Chapter 315 The Evil King: It turns out the number one in the world is nothing more than a lackey of Buddhism.

Da da da!
With the sound of warhorses thundering, Yuwen Chengdu rode in, leading the Imperial Guards. Holding a phoenix-winged gilded halberd, he arrived at the city gate in the first instant.

"Fan Qinghui, you dare to set foot in the capital alone and assassinate His Majesty? You have some nerve!"

Yuwen Chengdu sat atop his warhorse, looking down at Fan Qinghui, who was approaching with a sword on her back, a mocking smile on his face.

Fan Qinghui stopped in front of the city gate, her true energy surged, and the long sword on her back suddenly came out of its sheath. A clear and beautiful sword sound immediately drowned out Yuwen Chengdu's mocking laughter.

She raised her hand and grasped the hilt of the sword, its sharp edge pointing directly at Yuwen Chengdu: "You are Yuwen Huaji?"

Yuwen Chengdu's face turned slightly cold as he said, "I am Yuwen Chengdu. Why would the head of the Yuwen clan need to come personally to deal with you!"

"Yuwen Chengdu? Not even Yuwen Huaji has shown up? You really underestimate me!"

Fan Qinghui's face, hidden by a veil, was filled with coldness. Her gaze seemed to penetrate the city gate and see the mocking intent of the many martial arts practitioners in Daxing City.

It seemed that everyone was mocking Fan Qinghui for overestimating herself and attempting to oppose the Sui Dynasty on her own.

"If that's the case, then let me show you what I'm capable of!"

Fan Qinghui murmured to herself, then suddenly looked up, a faint smile playing on her lips:

"Master Ning, isn't it time for you to show yourself?"

Master Ning?!

who? !

Yuwen Chengdu was startled. The next moment, thousands of soldiers behind him were all struck by a figure.

The figure moved with terrifying speed, making it difficult to even see clearly.

A series of screams rang out, and when Yuwen Chengdu turned around to look...

An aged face came into view, and then an overwhelming force erupted from his chest.

Yuwen Chengdu was instantly sent flying from his horse, like a cannonball, streaking through the air and flying hundreds of meters away.

On his warhorse, an old and imposing Taoist priest took Yuwen Chengdu's original spot.

quiet!
Deathly silence!

Everyone stared blankly, completely stunned by what they were seeing.

Thousands of imperial guards and the Sui general Yuwen Chengdu were all blasted away in the blink of an eye.

Who is this old Taoist priest?

"She called him Master Ning! Could this old Taoist priest be the 'Recluse' Ning Daoqi, the number one person in the Central Plains?!"

"Ning Daoqi!"

Suddenly, countless martial arts practitioners exclaimed in surprise: there are many Taoist priests in this world with the surname Ning, but there is only one in the world who can possess such strength.

Ning Daoqi, the number one person in the Central Plains, the "Free Spirit"!

This is a legendary figure, universally recognized as the number one in the Central Plains!

"Why is Ning Daoqi here!?"

"He was invited by Fan Qinghui!?"

Li Yuan and his son, You Chuhong, Dugu Feng, and others were all greatly shocked.

They all realized that Ning Daoqi was Fan Qinghui's trump card for this trip!

"How is this possible! How could Ning Daoqi be persuaded by Fan Qinghui?!"

Li Yuan found this unbelievable. Ning Daoqi was of such high status and position that he could never have any connection with Buddhism.

But it was precisely at this time that they appeared here, and even injured thousands of soldiers and Yuwen Chengdu.

Li Shimin was also incredulous; this was truly unexpected.

Daoist Ning Daoqi is Fan Qinghui's trump card.

If this had happened before, he would have scoffed at anyone who told him this news.

After all, the two have different stances, and Taoism and Buddhism have been rivals since ancient times.

But now, Taoism and Buddhism are merging?!
"Is this her source of confidence?! The number one man in the world, Ning Daoqi, is actually being manipulated by the Fanqing Society!" Dugu Feng was surprised and couldn't understand it at all.

You Chuhong was completely baffled. She never imagined that Fan Qinghui could persuade Ning Daoqi to help her.

This method is truly astonishing!
It's simply incomprehensible that Ning Daoqi, who is clearly a member of the Taoist sect, would stand up for Buddhism at such a time.

Everyone stared in disbelief at the scene. Fan Qinghui, head held high and chest out, entered the city with her sword in hand. Ning Daoqi leaped from his warhorse to stand beside Fan Qinghui, an action that spoke volumes.

He came specifically to help Fan Qinghui.

The fallen soldiers clutched their chests, staring in horror at Ning Daoqi and Fan Qinghui as they entered the city.

All eyes were fixed on the two of them.

No one dared to step forward. With the strength and aura of the number one person in the world before them, everyone held their breath.

Under Ning Daoqi's intimidation, the road to the imperial city was completely unobstructed, and no one dared to stop them.

All the martial arts practitioners followed their lead and gathered not far from the imperial city.

At this moment, there were no imperial guards in front of the imperial city gate, only a tall figure in a blue robe.

The Evil King Shi Zhixuan stood alone in front of the imperial city.

The Imperial Guards were useless against Grandmaster-level experts, so Xu Qing had already ordered them to withdraw, avoiding unnecessary sacrifices.

The Evil King alone can withstand an army of ten thousand.

The clash between the Evil King and the number one person in the world!

This battle is bound to be incredibly exciting, and everyone is eagerly anticipating it.

"Shi Zhixuan, do you think you can stop us?"

Fan Qinghui pointed her longsword directly at Shi Zhixuan in front of the imperial city, her voice cold and sharp.

Shi Zhixuan's gaze lingered on Fan Qinghui for only a moment before quickly shifting to the elderly and tall Taoist priest standing to the side.

"Ning Daoqi, you intend to aid Buddhism? Does this mean that your Daoist sect is colluding with Buddhism to rebel against Emperor Sui?"

He completely ignored Fan Qinghui and questioned Ning Daoqi, the number one person in the world.

Ning Daoqi shook his head: "What I did today has nothing to do with the Daoist sect."

Upon hearing this, Shi Zhixuan couldn't help but sneer:

"Hahaha, so the world's number one 'unaffiliated man,' Ning Daoqi, is nothing but a lackey of Buddhism!"

His voice wasn't loud, but all the martial arts practitioners watching from afar could hear it clearly.

Hearing this, many people gasped.

Ning Daoqi was actually called a lackey of Buddhism on the spot!

This is really explosive!
Everyone's eyes lit up; they couldn't understand why Ning Daoqi would help Cihang Jingzhai.

Ning Daoqi's actions had nothing to do with the Taoist sect; they were all his own choices.

Then isn't that just a lackey of Buddhism?

Upon hearing this, Ning Daoqi's expression changed slightly, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. He said:
"You wicked king are quick-witted, but I wonder how skilled you are at martial arts!"

Shi Zhixuan smiled calmly and said, "Of course I'm better than you, a lackey of Buddhism!"

"Alright! Then let this old Taoist priest experience the Evil King's superior skills!"

Ning Daoqi was furious. Being called a lackey of Buddhism once or twice was incredibly frustrating, even though he was quite skilled at maintaining his composure. To be ridiculed like this in front of so many fellow practitioners was unacceptable.

He could no longer suppress his anger.

"Come on, you lackeys of Buddhism!"

Shi Zhixuan shouted coldly. He took the initiative and made a move so fast that no one could react. He raised his palm and a thousand kinds of force turned into an endless palm energy that covered Ning Daoqi.

Ning Daoqi casually pushed Fan Qinghui away from the terrifying palm strike range, and then unleashed a burst of powerful true energy with his other hand, also pushing out with a horizontal palm strike.

The two palms collided with a deafening sound, unlike a physical clash, but rather a thunderclap that resounded out of nowhere, causing everyone present to experience excruciating eardrum pain and turn pale.

The surrounding air currents were like turbulent waves, wantonly disrupting the magnetic field of this place, and the hard brick and stone ground was cracked like a spider web in all directions.

The massive city walls trembled violently, and the clouds in the sky shifted dramatically, causing a sudden change in the weather.

This was a duel between the world's most powerful figures, which shocked everyone and even caused the heavens to change.

"Is that human being!?"
