Gu Long's World: Starting with the Legend of Chu Liuxiang

Just then, chaos erupted outside the tent, with someone shouting, "Fire! Fire!"

The King of Kucha exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be assassins? Would you all like to go out and take a look?"

Before he could finish speaking, Hu Tiehua had already jumped out.

Chu Liuxiang frowned and said, "Don't fall for their trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain."

Jiang Fengyue gave Chu Liuxiang a wink and said, "Brother Chu, Brother Ji, go and check on things. I'll guard this place."

Upon hearing this, Ji Bingyan pulled Chu Liuxiang away from the tent.

Seeing that Jiang Fengyue was still there, Wu Qingtian asked in a daze, "This... Young Master Jiang, aren't you going to help?"

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "With the three of them going, what problem in the world can't be solved?"

Jiang Fengyue sat down next to the King of Kucha and said, "Since I have promised to protect Your Highness, it is better to stay by Your Highness's side at this time."

After observing the scene by the door for a long time, Wu Baiyun turned back and said in a gloomy tone, "You're really not leaving?"

Having said that, the Wu brothers had already drawn their swords.

The King of Kucha was greatly alarmed and said, "What are you doing? Why are you drawing swords in the tent?"

Wu Qingtian said viciously, "Nothing much, I just want to take your head."

The King of Kucha exclaimed in horror, "I spent a fortune to invite you two here, and you want my life instead?"

Wu Qingtian laughed and said, "A lot of money? How much silver did you just give me?"

The King of Kucha asked, "Isn't ten thousand taels enough?"

Wu Qingtian grinned and said, "You'd never guess that your rival gave us 20,000."

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "Your Highness should have realized that those who can be swayed by money are definitely not chivalrous people. If you can buy them, others certainly can too."

Wu Baiyun said, "Since Young Master Jiang refuses to leave, then you'd better leave your head behind today."

Jiang Fengyue smiled slightly and said, "Just you? I'm sorry, my head is perfectly fine on my neck, and I don't want to move it just yet."

Wu Qingtian laughed wildly, saying, "Who said it was just us?"

Wu Baiyun clapped his hands, and then two people burst through the tent and walked in.

The man on the left is Du Huan, whose hand was chopped off by Jiang Fengyue during the day. The man on the right is extremely thin, but his eyes are bright and shining.

Du Huan said viciously, "If you cut off one of my hands, I'll cut off one of your heads. That's fair."

Jiang Fengyue laughed and said, "It seems some people really never learn their lesson."

Du Huan respectfully said to the person next to him, "Brother Sun, we are no match for him. Please take care of him. We will leave the King of Kucha and his daughter to us."

Jiang Fengyue looked at the person who looked like a monkey and thought that this must be "Black Monkey" Sun Kong.

"Check-in!"

"Sign in as Sun Kong successfully and obtain the martial art Changbai Monkey Fist."

Sun Kong said coldly, "I've heard your sword is very fast. I'd like to see just how fast it is."

Jiang Fengyue said, "Wait a moment, let me deal with some other troubles first."

Jiang Fengyue drew his sword, but instead of swinging it at Sun Kong, he used his swordsmanship to block the other three people who were about to attack the King of Kucha.

Wu Qingtian exclaimed in surprise, "This is the Dragon Soaring Sword Style! How could you...?"

Before he could finish speaking, because he could no longer utter a word, thin lines of blood appeared on the necks of the Wu brothers and Du Huan, and they collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Fengyue said, "I feel utterly disgusted if those who break their promises live even a moment longer in this world."

Sun Kong exclaimed excitedly, "Your sword is indeed fast! Come on! Attack me now!"

Jiang Fengyue said, "Your companions are dead, aren't you even a little bit sad for them?"

Sun Kong laughed loudly, "They're dead. I'll take their heads back with me and get even more money. Why should I be sad?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "Very good!"

After saying this, he forcefully plunged the sword in his hand into the ground.

Sun Kong asked, "What do you mean by this?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "I prefer to use weapons when dealing with people who have them, but I never take advantage of people who are unarmed."

Jiang Fengyue added, "I know you are a successor of the 'Changbai Monkey Fist,' so I also plan to use the 'Changbai Monkey Fist' to deal with you."

Sun Kong coldly replied, "Ridiculous! Do you know that I am the sole inheritor of the 'Changbai Monkey Fist'?"

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "That won't be the case after today."

Jiang Fengyue clenched her left fist and threw a punch. In mid-air, the fist would sometimes transform into a claw and sometimes back into a fist, changing unpredictably and making it difficult for anyone to defend against.

Sun Kong was greatly surprised, because he knew that this was precisely the wonder of the "Changbai Monkey Fist".

Sun Kong dared not be negligent and swung his fist to meet the attack. Fist against fist, with a loud "boom," Jiang Fengyue only took a slight step back, while Sun Kong stumbled back several steps.

Sun Kong roared, "Again!"

This time it was his turn to strike first. He leaped up and threw a punch at Jiang Fengyue with all his might.

Jiang Fengyue also threw a punch, which turned into a palm in mid-air, and then into a claw. One claw caught Sun Kong's fist, dissipating his force, while the other hand threw a punch at lightning speed.

A bloody hole had appeared in Sun Kong's chest. He stammered, "You..."

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "May you do fewer bad things in your next life."

Sun Kong fell down, his eyes no longer flashing, but staring intently at Jiang Fengyue. A proud man was killed by his own most prized move, and he could not rest in peace even in death. Was this not a punishment for the evil deeds he had committed in the past?

Jiang Fengyue's belief is simple: never wrong an innocent person, and never let a villain who comes to him go unpunished. He no longer feels any remorse for killing these people.

The King of Kucha was terrified, his face drained of color. He closed his eyes tightly and stammered, "Quick... quick, someone move these corpses out."

Chu Liuxiang walked in at this moment. He frowned when he saw the corpses all over the ground. He was somewhat surprised when he noticed Sun Kong, who had a bloody hole in his chest.

Chu Liuxiang shook his head and said, "Sun Kong killed them, but you killed Sun Kong?"

Jiang Fengyue lowered her head and said, "I killed them all."

After closing his eyes for a long time, the King of Kucha had recovered slightly. He said, "These three despicable villains, I paid money to invite them here, but they took money from those traitors and want to attack me."

The King of Kucha seemed to still be shaken, his breathing rapid, and said, "Thank goodness... thank goodness for Young Master Jiang. Young Master Jiang is incredibly brave and is the most valiant person I have ever seen."

Chu Liuxiang sighed, "I never thought that even someone like Sun Kong would become an assassin. I have encountered him committing evil deeds many times before and let him go each time. I should have thought that someone who does too many bad things will eventually fall into the hands of others."

Jiang Fengyue raised her head and said firmly, "Good and evil will ultimately be rewarded."

……

When Jiang Fengyue and her group returned to their sleeping tent, the stone camel was gone.

Hu Tiehua asked, "Has Shi Tuo left?"

Ji Bingyan replied, "Mm."

Hu Tiehua said, "Why did he leave so suddenly?"

Ji Bingyan said, "I don't know either, but I promised him that if he wanted to leave, I would not stop him."

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "Did you notice 'Wang Chong' during the day?"

Chu Liuxiang said, "I only know that his name is definitely not 'Wang Chong'."

Hu Tiehua scratched his head and said, "Did Shi Tuo follow him? What kind of relationship could they possibly have?"

Jiang Fengyue said, "Of course his name isn't 'Wang Chong.' He was Liu Yanfei, the former disciple of Mount Hua, known as the 'Little Dragon Swordsman.'"

Ji Bingyan was moved and asked, "So they are fellow disciples?"

Jiang Fengyue sighed, "They are indeed fellow disciples who are as close as brothers. Liu Yanfei's trip to the desert this time may be to find his senior brother Huangfu Gao, also known as Shi Tuo."

Hu Tiehua said, "Fortunately, they all got what they wanted."

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "That depends on you."

Hu Tiehua said, "What does this have to do with me?"

Jiang Fengyue feigned mystery, fell silent, and lay down to sleep.

Jiang Fengyue was exhausted, and the others also needed sleep. Shi Guanyin's conspiracy had only been partially revealed, and the road ahead was shrouded in mystery, with countless dangers awaiting them.

No one knew how long everyone had been asleep when there was a slight commotion outside the tent. Suddenly, someone rushed in, assuming everyone inside was fast asleep.

Little did he know that there was someone in the world who seemed to never sleep. Chu Liuxiang had already woken everyone up, and now they were surrounding the uninvited guest who had just entered.

Ji Bingyan said, "Your Excellency left without saying goodbye and then broke into someone else's tent in the middle of the night. You are truly mysterious."

Wiping the sweat pouring down his face, Situ Liuxing forced a smile and said, "I have urgent business to report, please forgive my intrusion."

Jiang Fengyue smiled and said, "No need to rush, sit down and talk about it slowly."

Situ Liuxing said, "The reason I left without saying goodbye was actually to track down Du Huan, because I felt that this person seemed to be up to no good."

Jiang Fengyue said, "Indeed, you have good judgment. That villain is already dead by my sword."

Situ Liuxing said, "He headed north, and I followed him for about half an hour. I found a black tent behind a sand dune."

Jiang Fengyue laughed, "There were many experts inside that tent, how come you weren't discovered?"

Situ Liuxing blushed and said, "I was lucky. Just as I arrived, someone on horseback shot an arrow at their tent, and three people chased after them. I was able to take advantage of the chaos to see who was in their tent."

Jiang Fengyue asked, "Who's in the tent?"

Situ Liuxing said, "Besides Du Huan, there are two other people wearing golden crowns and brocade robes, and a Han Chinese man with a sallow complexion."

Chu Liuxiang frowned and said, "Besides the two traitors, there were also Han Chinese involved in their rebellion."

Situ Liuxing said, "They pulled out the arrow that had been shot in, and there was a note on it. The two traitors didn't recognize Chinese people, so they had the old Han Chinese man next to them read it out to them."

Hu Tiehua laughed and said, "If it weren't for that, you wouldn't have known what was written on it. You're really lucky, kid."

Situ Liuxing said, "The contents of the document are roughly as follows: they are to exchange five thousand taels of gold, five hundred pearls, and fifty jade discs for the 'Star of Bliss,' or else give it to the King of Kucha."

Jiang Fengyue said, "This Stone Guanyin is quite cunning; she even thought of double-crossing someone."

Situ Liuxing sighed, "Just as I was about to continue eavesdropping, someone patted me on the shoulder from behind."
