My wife is a reborn big boss
Chapter 16 The Visitor is Not Friendly
The time has come to Ji.
Whether it was guests who arrived early in the guest rooms or those who arrived just in time, basically everyone who was supposed to come had arrived.
Calculating the time, it was about right, and the head of the manor, Jiang Chen, walked out of the main hall to speak.
Wu Qiong was getting sleepy listening to this. Why is it that no matter what era or world, as long as someone is a leader, they all love to talk nonsense?
As the sun rose higher, the final step of washing his hands of the trade was finally approaching.
"Bring on the golden basin!"
Several maids then carried six golden basins and presented them to the six manor lords who had stood up.
Is this golden basin made of real gold? I wonder how much it's worth. Bored, Wu Qiong's mind wandered.
Just as the estate owners were about to put their hands into the basin...
"Wait a minute!"
A soft shout was heard, as if spoken directly into everyone's ears.
"Such powerful internal energy!"
Jiang Chen's eyes narrowed, and he gritted his teeth, about to put his hand into the golden basin.
Zzzzz!
A sword cry!
Wu Qiong's spirits lifted, and he arrived!
A sword aura instantly reached Jiang Chen.
Having been on guard for a long time, Master Jiang narrowed his eyes and struck out with his right hand, dispersing the sword energy.
"Who's here?"
"I have come uninvited, and I hope the esteemed lords will forgive me."
Before the words were finished, a young, square-faced man slowly walked in, accompanied by a middle-aged man carrying a long sword.
The man had a head of messy brown hair, a full brown beard, and a robust build; he was estimated to be about 1.9 meters tall.
Despite his tough appearance, his eyes were deep, suggesting that his inner strength was not as formidable as his outward appearance suggested.
Master Jiang waved his hand to stop Huang Shaotian from rushing forward, and cupped his hands in a gesture of respect to the burly man:
"Judging from your appearance, you do not seem to be from the Central Plains. May I ask why you have come here to interfere with our brothers' decision to retire from the martial arts world?"
The burly man sneered, "Master Jiang, you and your six brothers fought against my Western Regions on the frontier more than ten years ago. I also respect you as heroes."
"But I never expected you would steal our things too. I'm here today not for anything else, but simply to hand over the items you took back then. I will forgive your past transgressions and spare your entire family."
Jiang Chen stroked his beard and chuckled: "Who do we have here? It turns out to be Lie Fengtao, ranked sixth on the Human Ranking, known in the martial arts world as the 'Master of Both Sword and Saber'."
"What? Your brother's not here, and you, you wolf cub, dare to come to our Central Plains?"
"What! He's Lie Fengtao?"
"Wasn't he in the Western Regions? How did he end up here?"
The crowd of onlookers began to discuss the matter, and the square became noisy for a time.
Murong Shengxue approached Wu Qiong without making a sound and whispered:
"Brother Wu, this Lie Fengtao seems to be up to no good. He's always been cautious, yet he dares to show up here with only one person... and the swordsman beside him is no ordinary person."
Wu Qiong frowned slightly. This Lie Fengtao was the younger brother of Lie Fenghan, the "God of War of the Western Regions" who ranked thirty-sixth on the Heavenly Ranking.
According to the storyline of the game in his previous life, he should have come here alone to retrieve the treasure map of the Western Regions Dragon Vein.
The reason he dared to come alone was that he had broken through to the Great Perfection of the Acquired Realm and reached the state of oneness with heaven and man. In his previous life game, he single-handedly defeated six manor lords and a group of martial arts heroes who came to witness the ceremony.
But now, with Li Jianshi as a variable, Wu Qiong initially thought he wouldn't dare to come, but unexpectedly...
It seems that his reliance is on that middle-aged man holding the sword.
I thought I wouldn't have to lift a finger, tsk...
Wu Qiong clicked his tongue, turned around and said softly to Murong Shengxue, "Brother Murong, let's wait and see. There's no need to risk ourselves for the little bit of wages paid by Xien Manor."
Murong Shengxue nodded solemnly and hid in the crowd with Wu Qiong to observe secretly.
Lie Fengtao laughed heartily: "Master Jiang, a wise man knows when to yield. You all have families now. For the sake of your wives and children, wouldn't it be better to hand over your belongings and quietly retire from the martial world?"
Once you enter the world of martial arts, you're no longer in control of your own destiny. Many yearn to retire but cannot; don't take your blessings for granted.
Jiang Chen laughed heartily, "My brothers have spent their entire lives resisting the invasion of the barbarians, and now, just as we're about to retire, we encounter you, you wolf cub. So be it, brothers, let's consider this our final act for the Great Zhou! Wolf cub, this day next year will be your death anniversary! Prepare to face this!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Huang Ling, the fourth master of the manor, leaped out and slashed at Lie Fengtao’s head with his long sword!
Lie Fengtao neither dodged nor avoided, but drew his longsword from its sheath and lightly pointed forward.
Ding!
The sword tip and the blade separated the moment they touched. Lie Fengtao took root in his feet, while Huang Ling suddenly retreated until Jiang Chen's hand touched his back, which helped him regain his balance.
Jiang Chen's expression changed slightly. "Such powerful internal energy!"
The brothers exchanged glances and attacked together!
"Hahaha, well done! Old dog Jiang! I'm giving you face by calling you Master, but your gang-up tactics when you can't win a fight, do you even deserve to be called heroes? Bah!" Lie Fengtao laughed loudly, sword in his right hand, and charged forward fiercely!
The six manor lords did not answer, but surrounded Lie Fengtao in the middle.
Lie Fengtao's skills have greatly improved, and individually, none of the six manor lords are his match.
However, Jiang Chen and his six brothers fought on the frontier for more than a decade. No matter how many people the enemy had, they always advanced and retreated together. Their perfect teamwork resulted in a draw with Lie Fengtao.
A hundred moves had passed in a short while. Lie Fengtao gradually adapted to the six brothers' joint efforts. He thrust out his sword, which happened to strike the gap between the Second Master Chen Zhiyao and the Third Master Zhou Yitian.
The attack by Jiang Chen and his six companions faltered, and Lie Fengtao retreated accordingly.
In the battle between these seven people, if one is not careful, someone will be seriously injured or even killed.
The crowd around was so dazzled that no one uttered a sound; the square was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Murong Shengxue, standing in the crowd, broke out in a cold sweat. If he were a member of the battle, he would probably have been injured and forced to withdraw.
Fifth Master Xie Xiaobin frowned and said softly, "This person is only sixth on the Human Ranking. He should be at the same level as us, at the Great Perfection of the Acquired Realm. Yet, the six of us brothers working together can't defeat him..."
Jiang Chen kept his eyes fixed on the figure of his opponent and replied, "This kid hasn't made a move since he climbed to sixth place on the Human Ranking. In short, be careful."
Lie Fengtao looked relaxed, a stark contrast to the six people opposite him.
He chuckled and said, "The six of you barely made it into the Earth Ranking by joining forces. Although you were all on the Human Ranking when you were young, your generation is recognized as the worst in history. You really are a disgrace to the Human Ranking."
Holding a knife in his left hand and a sword in his right, he sneered, "It seems your strength is nothing special. Very well, I'll send you to your grave now."
The six people from Sean Manor perked up and became alert.
"You're not coming? Then I'm coming!"
With a light touch of his toes, Lie Fengtao leaped several feet forward, charging into the encirclement of the six men. His left hand held a knife, his movements delicate and precise, employing sword techniques, while his right hand wielded a sword with wide, sweeping strokes, using knife skills.
After exchanging dozens of blows, the six men gradually became outmatched.
"Uncle, don't panic, I'll help you!"
Huang Shaotian drew his sword and joined the battle.
The six manor lords, who were on the verge of collapse, suddenly perked up and switched from defense to offense.
"Haha! Come on, everyone!"
The Western Region Madman, however, grew stronger and more ferocious with each battle!
The seven of them worked together to gradually suppress Lie Fengtao.
suddenly!
Huang Shaotian silently spun his longsword and thrust it toward his uncle Huang Ling’s back!
