Transmigrating into Murong Fu, may you have many children and much happiness.

Chapter 337 Taking in Ximen Rou

Murong Fu looked closely at the man in front of him. The man was unusually thin and unusually tall. His face, which was longer than a horse's face, had a blue mark the size of a palm, which made him look a little scary.

But Murong Fu knew that this man was upright and honest, much better than Lü Fengxian, whom he had just crippled.

In the original story, he once encountered the Money Gang bullying people in an inn. He resolutely stepped in to save all the martial arts practitioners with money on their heads, attracting the attention of the Money Gang members and allowing them to escape before slowly retreating. This great courage is astonishing and admirable.

However... the moment the money hit their heads, these martial arts practitioners all ran away, leaving their saviors to be surrounded and attacked. This is the norm in this boring martial arts world.

The second time was at Lin Shiyin's house. Ximen Rou was only secretly spying and was not discovered by the Money Gang and others.

But when he saw that Zhuge Gang and the others were going to disregard Long Xiaoyun's wishes and force Lin Shiyin to appear on the building, he immediately appeared and killed three of the Money Gang's henchmen, and blocked Zhuge Gang and the others, thus protecting the orphan and widow.

Although he lacked skill, he truly possessed the demeanor of a great hero.

After considering this, Murong Fu said in a deep voice, "I have heard of the great name of the 'Whip God.' How about we set up a contest to begin with?"

Ximen Rou was taken aback, not expecting Murong Fu to propose a wager, and asked, "What kind of wager do you want?"

Murong Fu said, "If you lose, you will follow me for a year. I will not make you do anything that violates chivalry, conscience, or danger."

After thinking for a moment, Ximen Rou nodded and said, "I promise you, if you lose, you will train with me in martial arts for a year."

Ximen Rou was used to being alone and didn't have the habit of having anyone follow her. However, since Murong Fu had profound internal strength and could surpass Lü Fengxian in finger strength, having him accompany her to practice martial arts should be a good choice.

Murong Fu naturally agreed, but if he knew what Ximen Rou was really thinking, he would definitely laugh and say: You actually got selected.

After the two bowed to each other, Ximen Rou raised her long whip and swept it towards Murong Fu with a whoosh.

Murong Fu took out the small leather whip he had used when playing with Zhao Min earlier from his personal space.

With a slight flick, it precisely struck the point of force of Ximen Rou's whip, pulling it back.

Ximen Rou was taken aback, not expecting that Murong Fu would also know how to use a whip in addition to swordsmanship and finger techniques.

He was focused on dealing with the situation with all his might, so he spun the whip faster and changed his movements in various ways.

Murong Fu observed this and, through these subtle movements that Ximen Rou hadn't even noticed, analyzed his whip technique.

After learning the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, he could learn any move at a glance. After the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth, the Shift of Stars and the Shift of Flowers and Jade were upgraded to the Xuanji Reverse Fate Technique, he could even learn more advanced moves from other people's moves. His swordsmanship was such that there was no move that was better than a move, and naturally, there was also whip technique.

Murong Fu is now a man of many talents.

The half-meter-long leather whip in his hand was not at all inferior to the snake whip that was several times longer. With a few swings of the long whip, it disrupted Ximen Rou's rhythm.

All martial arts have their own rhythm, but in actual combat, this rhythm is naturally not as smooth and fluid as it is in practice.

Therefore, whether a person can maintain their own rhythm in battle, or even pull their opponent into their own rhythm, is the difference between having combat talent and not having it.

The two people Murong Fu had seen with the best combat talent were Qiao Feng and Wang Yuyan.

The former possesses insightful observation and judgment that pinpoints the key issues, while the latter uses superior algorithms and mastery of various martial arts to deduce combat techniques in a timely manner.

At this moment, Murong Fu, after reaching the realm of "no moves are better than moves" through practicing the Divine Sword Technique, further mastered the Xuanji Reversal of Fate Technique, achieving a level of combat talent similar to Wang Yuyan.

Ximen Rou was repeatedly defeated under Murong Fu's relentless attacks.

Even though his own whip was longer, as the saying goes, "an inch longer, an inch stronger," length is meaningless when there is a difference in skill level.

In just a few breaths, Murong Fu and Ximen Rou were only a foot apart, and Murong Fu would interrupt Ximen Rou's whip every time it was about to fall.

Two more lashes struck Ximen Rou's wrist. The force wasn't great, but the strikes were perfectly placed. Ximen Rou's hand trembled, and the whip slipped from her grasp and fell to the ground.

"I lost." Ximen Rou stared at the whip on the ground for two seconds before reluctantly uttering these three words.

The fight ended in just over ten moves, in the blink of an eye.

But he knew from the very first move that Murong Fu's martial arts were far superior to his own.

Furthermore, in the subsequent lashes from the opponent, it was evident that the opponent's skill with the whip improved with each strike. The first lash was slightly weaker than the opponent's, but the opponent's superior wrist strength, speed, and eyesight allowed them to repel the opponent's attack.

But the second strike was no less skillful than his own.

Each subsequent lash of the whip crushed his own level.

Ximen Rou, nicknamed "The Whip God," was naturally the best whip user in the world. He was completely convinced when he saw Murong Fu's whipping.

Having witnessed the highest level of this skill, he was willing to become a lackey of the Murong family.

Murong Fu used his Dragon-Capturing Skill to hand the whip to Ximen Rou.

Upon seeing Murong Fu's martial arts skills, Ximen Rou asked in surprise, "Young Master Murong, what is this?"

Murong Fu said, "The Dragon-Capturing Skill is just a martial art that makes it easier to grab things."

"Since you've admitted defeat, Master Ximen, then keep your promise and follow me for a year. Step down from the stage and stand over there with Li Xunhuan and the others, waiting for me."

Murong Fu pointed at Li Xunhuan, and Ximen Rou looked over and nodded. He could afford to lose, so he naturally wouldn't cheat. Besides... he didn't have the leverage to cheat on Murong Fu, so he quietly stepped off the stage.

The crowd below the stage erupted in discussion: "Murong Fu is indeed quite skilled, but why doesn't he use swordsmanship?"

I came here to see his swordsmanship as he killed Yi Ku and the Five Poisons Child!

"Heh, how ignorant. Young Master Murong said this is called 'an eye for an eye.'"

"It seems that his killing of Yi Ku and the Five Poison Child was real; he really did have some skills."

"Heh, what good are a few skills? How can this martial world tolerate such an arrogant and rebellious person?"

Murong Fu's power inspired many people, but most people did not think highly of him because of his previous arrogant remarks.

"Next"

Murong Fu's voice rang softly in everyone's ears.

"Or... bring a few more."

Although many people disagreed with Murong Fu's arrogance, they would never dare to let him take the throne.

"I'll do it!"

A sound rang out, and everyone saw someone draw a... iron sword?!
