The deepest affection in Gu Long's world

Chapter 147 Lü Fengxian

"grandfather."

"Grandpa is getting old. There are countless heroes in the world, but no one can resist the erosion of time." After saying this, Sun Baifa truly saw things clearly. This spiritual and mental elevation could not elevate his actual combat skills to another level.

But it deepened his state of mind.

“I owe you one.” Sun Baifa suddenly looked at Fang Yunhua.

Fang Yunhua shook his head slightly.

"I also have my own purposes. The current ranking of weapons is not absolutely fair."

Sun Baifa didn't ask any more questions. Fang Yunhua's previous social distance was already a veiled rejection. He also came from a family with a history of hundreds of years. Although he usually acted as a storyteller with a leisurely demeanor, he still followed this way of doing things in his heart.

"Putting aside your purpose, this reordering of the weapon ranking list has indeed helped me see myself more clearly. Just like you said, if this old codger of mine insists on hanging over his head, I am not afraid of his challenge. However, the Money Gang may start targeting my Sun family."

This is where I failed in my duty as the head of the Sun family.

So, I owe you one.

"Then I'll accept it this time." Fang Yunhua smiled and did not refuse again.

Sun Baifa nodded in satisfaction.

By this time, the carriage had stopped. Naturally, they would not stay overnight in the wilderness. The astute Qin Xiaoyi had already gone to the inn in town to make arrangements.

With nothing else to do, Long Xiaoyun looked around.

There were many martial arts practitioners coming and going, carrying swords and knives, most of whom were probably there to watch the battle between Tianshan Xueyingzi and the current number one weapon on the Weapon Ranking, the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva.

The Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva has already spread the word that she will accept the challenge in Jiujiang Prefecture, and claims that she will officially let the entire martial arts world witness her powerful strength as the number one weapon on the weapon ranking list.

This behemoth was the kind of creature whose brain had been clouded by pornography. When it learned that it had been ranked first on the weapon ranking list, it didn't think that it would attract attention. Instead, it happily engaged in group sex for several days.

And he even privately praised Tianjilou for having good judgment.

All of this made Fang Yunhua feel that listing it as the number one hypothetical enemy was a bit of an overreaction.

However, this did not make Fang Yunhua lower his guard against the Great Joyful Female Bodhisattva. After all, according to the tone of Gu Long's martial arts world, some strong people obviously use their brains to exchange for strength. The dumber they seem, the more powerful they can unleash unexpected combat power.

"Looks like we're in trouble." After waiting for Qin Xiaoyi for a quarter of an hour without her returning, Fang Yunhua instructed Long Xiaoyun to continue driving.

After crossing several streets, they soon found a group of martial arts practitioners arguing outside an inn.

Qin Xiaoyi didn't participate. He was very observant and kept a close watch on things. When he noticed the carriage, he quickly ran over.

“Young Master Fang, this is the largest inn in this town. I originally wanted to book it, but before I could even speak, someone tried to kick out all the martial arts travelers staying there.”

Qin Xiaoyi pointed to a person in white under the eaves of the inn.

He offered a high price to the shopkeeper to send away those wandering swordsmen, while he himself stood with his hands behind his back, looking up at a row of birdcages hanging under the eaves.

The birds in the cage chirped and sang.

The man in white seemed to find birds far more interesting than people, not even glancing at the wandering swordsmen who wanted to demand an explanation.

"He's actually back to wandering the martial arts world again."

Sun Baifa, who was finally able to take a couple of puffs of his pipe, naturally noticed the tall, elegant man in white.

Although wrinkles appeared at the corners of his eyes, his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, and his fair complexion, made him appear from afar as a handsome young man, and no one could guess his age.

"Sir, do you know his identity?" Qin Xiaoyi quickly stepped forward and asked respectfully.

He didn't know Sun Baifa's background, but earlier in the carriage, two powerful auras suddenly clashed, followed by the sound of metal clashing. It seemed that the person who could fight against that Young Master Fang was definitely not Lin Xian'er.

It certainly wouldn't be that cheerful and bright girl with long braids.

Therefore, it is not difficult to guess that the person smoking the pipe must be a strong person.

As for how strong he was, he couldn't imagine it. He had only sensed the powerful energy filled with extreme cold, which raised his expectations of Fang Yunhua's combat strength by several levels.

“Lu Fengxian, the Silver-Halved Marquis,” Sun Baifa said calmly.

He naturally noticed that Lü Fengxian was not carrying his usual weapon, the Wenhou Silver Halberd, but he didn't know the details of why.

Fang Yunhua, with his keen eyes, noticed that only two fingers on his right hand, which was behind his back, seemed to be cast in metal, radiating a bronze-like luster.

In the original storyline, Lü Feng first trained to have three fingers before choosing to leave the mountain. He was arrogant and conceited. He chose to give up his famous weapon because he was dissatisfied with the ranking of the weapon list. He trained hard for many years in order to challenge the top four masters.

However, judging from his current appearance, he should already be aware of the harsh reality of being kicked out of the top ten of the new weapon rankings.

This also made him unable to continue his seclusion, and naturally he was unable to reach the peak combat power of having three metal fingers two years later in the original storyline. As for his destination, it was easy to guess.

They would inevitably have to go to Jiujiang Prefecture to watch the battle.

It's very likely that they also wanted to use this opportunity to find the top ten masters on the weapon ranking list and challenge them.

At this moment, Lü Fengxian had lost his patience. His gaze shifted from the birdcages to the wandering swordsmen who were still haggling with the shopkeeper. An indescribable aura of intimidation instantly silenced the scene.

“Take the money and leave in three breaths, or stay here.”

At this moment, not only the wandering swordsmen who were still making a ruckus in the inn, but also the onlookers, seemed to be influenced by his aura and began to retreat on their own.

This also made the carriage stand out conspicuously after everyone dispersed.

"Young Master Fang, shall we find another inn?"

When Qin Xiaoyi learned that the man in white was actually Lü Fengxian, who was originally ranked fifth on the Weapon Ranking, he was already stunned. As someone who travels in the martial arts world, he naturally knows not to meddle in trouble that he shouldn't cause.

Lü Fengxian doesn't seem like someone to be trifled with, so avoiding his sharp edge is a wise move.

"This is fine." Fang Yunhua pulled back the curtain of the carriage and stepped down.

His appearance also made Lü Fengxian's expression tighten. After all, judging from the other party's temperament and appearance, one could guess that he must be quite powerful.

Otherwise, someone as handsome as him who doesn't bother with disguises when walking around would probably have been taken in as a private male concubine by some passing fan if he didn't have some real skills.

But he didn't take it too seriously, because at his age, no matter how strong the other person was, they couldn't possibly beat him.

Immediately, that oppressive aura erupted from him once more.

Even a hint of murderous intent had crept into his eyes!
After all, he had already given a warning, and those who remained were undoubtedly provoking him! For such an arrogant person, face is everything!
"Master Lü, you don't mind if we have these extra rooms, do you?"

When Fang Yunhua uttered the first three words, he was still standing by the carriage. But when he finished speaking the last four words, his figure appeared beside Lü Fengxian without Lü Fengxian noticing at all.

Fang Yunhua then patted Lü Fengxian's shoulder in a seemingly familiar manner.

The only one who could see through his movements was Sun Baifa.

At the same time, he was also amazed by Fang Yunhua's elegant yet unpredictable movements.

Its footwork is like petals falling, its toes lightly touching the ground like a dragonfly skimming the water, and its weight shifts as it drifts, like a peach blossom drifting freely in the wind.

This is a combination of Chu Liuxiang's "Treading the Moon and Leaving Fragrance", Hua Zhenzhen's "Startling Steps", and the true meaning of combat footwork from the Thirteen Styles of Qingfeng.

He named his exclusive light-foot technique "Wandering Among Flowers".

When it comes to traveling over medium to long distances, it still can't catch up with Chu Liuxiang, the king of light-footed skills. However, when it comes to short-distance maneuvers, its elegant style surpasses even the already extremely refined "Treading the Moon and Leaving Fragrance".

According to Fang Yunhua's own assessment, he has already reached the T0.5 level of lightness skill, which is suitable for any fast-paced battle. This also greatly enhances the killing effect of the Qingfeng Piaomiao sword style after he enters the Divine Demon One Thought.

Compared to Lü Fengxian, who hadn't even mastered the skill of using three fingers and whose mental fortitude had been further damaged by the new weapon catalog, this was truly a case of being outmatched.

Not to mention, in order to show his goodwill, Fang Yunhua also learned from Shangguan Cangxing's philosophy and used the most simple and honest way of greeting.

"call"

Long Xiaoyun, who was only a dozen steps away from the inn, had already started shivering uncontrollably.

However, a thin layer of frost condensed on the ground around Fang Yunhua, and Lu Fengxian, who was slapped on the shoulder, had his entire right arm frozen by the icy energy!
This is the power of the sixth level of the Bright Jade Skill!

His benchmark was the elders of the seven major sects who specialized in internal martial arts, which also means that Lu Fengxian was far inferior to Fang Yunhua in terms of internal martial arts alone.

At this moment, Lü Fengxian's pupils trembled wildly, and his forehead was covered with beads of sweat. His proud right hand, with its two fingers, was too weak to lift.

He could never have imagined that in this unknown town, in a mere dispute over accommodation at an inn, he would encounter such a powerful expert whom he was completely unable to resist!
This completely shattered his confidence in being the strongest person in the world.

Now, his main concern is how to leave safely.

Because at that moment, I was truly like a lamb to the slaughter in the hands of the other party!
Lu Fengxian began to twist his neck and shake his head with all his might to show that he did not mind sharing the inn.

It was after he made his statement that his limbs, which had seemed to be completely frozen, finally regained sensation, and the icy energy that had invaded his body dissipated in an instant.

He looked at Fang Yunhua, who was so close to him, nodding and smiling, but he couldn't muster any fighting spirit. All he felt was the dejection of surviving a disaster.

He gave a stiff, extremely awkward smile, but then turned and rushed out of the inn. His speed was not slow either, which Fang Yunhua thought was comparable to Hu Tiehua. Don't think that Hu Tiehua was bad at lightness skills.

The opponent's Butterfly Weaving Flowers Seventy-Two Styles, seemingly masculine and powerful, actually has agile and unpredictable killing moves. The opponent, known as the Xiaoxiang Swordsman, is also a top master in terms of lightness skill alone.

"He just ran away like that?" Qin Xiaoyi's mouth dropped open.

At this moment, he finally had an accurate understanding of Fang Yunhua's strength. He realized that Fang Yunhua could easily intimidate the fifth-ranked expert on the original weapon ranking and make him flee in a sorry state without Fang Yunhua even having to make a move.

Long Xiaoyun, standing to the side, looked completely at ease.

In his view, no human being could defeat the Great Demon King, and what was so pathetic as the fifth-ranked weapon on the original weapon ranking list?

Sun Baifa sighed and stepped forward to speak.

"You've scared him half to death."

"I was very friendly," Fang Yunhua said, indicating that he had not hurt the other party and had even taken the initiative to neutralize the icy energy that had invaded the other party's body.

Looking into Fang Yunhua's smiling eyes, Sun Baifa couldn't finish his sentence.

He originally wanted to say that you could have a proper talk with him, but he also knew very well Lü Fengxian's personality. There was probably no one in the world more arrogant than him, and it was useless to talk to such a person.

As for seeing that the other party had occupied the inn, he turned around and left.

His grandson, Baifa, wasn't such a pathetic and cowardly person.

In reality, Fang Yunhua's approach was the most appropriate, because if they had really talked things out properly, given Lü Fengxian's silver tongue, it's unlikely that he would have been able to leave unscathed.

"Sigh, martial artists these days are too fragile."

Sun Baifa took a deep drag on his pipe, lamenting that the current state of the martial arts world was beyond his comprehension.

While Qin Xiaoyi was arranging guest rooms, Fang Yunhua, who was idly staring at the birdcage, felt two burning gazes on him from the side.

It was Lin Xian'er and Sun Xiaohong.

The former means quite clearly.

I want to do it tonight.

The latter, however, already exuded the feeling of spring in her bright eyes.

Women always admire strength, and in this world, the greatest way to demonstrate strength is through personal ability.

Lu Fengxian, who just spoke, is no nobody. Although he was kicked out of the top ten of the new weapon rankings, many people in the martial arts world privately believe that he is stronger than Jing Wuming, who is now the gatekeeper.

But even such a powerful figure, under the intimidation of Fang Yunhua's elegant lightness skills and profound internal strength, took the initiative to back down.

His final, disarrayed escape only served to elevate Fang Yunhua's image even further.

This was a fatal blow to Sun Xiaohong, who was new to the martial arts world.

Immediately, Lin Xian'er pulled Sun Xiaohong aside and began whispering in her ear. Fang Yunhua originally didn't want to listen, but as a martial arts master of his caliber, his five senses were much sharper than ordinary people, which allowed him to catch some fragmented information.

"Tonight, peeping into the closet while they're having sex."

Fang Yunhua looked at Lin Xian'er speechlessly. Lin Xian'er raised her eyebrows at him as if to take credit, while Sun Xiaohong's face was already as red as a tomato. She seemed to have a constitution that made her skin very rosy.

Because Lin Xian'er's plan this time was too bold, her fair neck and slender fingers were tinged with a blush.

However, Sun Xiaohong did not refuse. Although she was so embarrassed that she wanted to shrink back into Lin Xian'er's arms, she still nodded gently a few times.

Then, perhaps because Lin Xian'er's story became increasingly inappropriate, she ran off to find her grandfather.
