Yang Guo travels back in time to become Duan Yu, a different kind of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

After returning to Malang Bridge, the two boarded a boat. A'Zhu removed Yang Guo's disguise, and Yang Guo retrieved his luggage from the cabin. He then bid farewell to Qiao Feng, Wang Yuyan, and the others, and rode his horse towards Qiao Feng's hometown, Shaoshi Mountain in Henan.

Qiao Feng was formerly the leader of the Beggars' Sect, and he truly felt at home wherever he went in the martial world. Originally, in order to avoid trouble, Qiao Feng planned to avoid all paths and not meet with his former members of the Beggars' Sect.

Yang Guo, however, did not think so. Regardless of Qiao Feng's background, his past actions were all upright and honest. At this moment, deliberately avoiding people would only make him seem guilty. So the two of them simply took the official road and headed straight for Shaolin Temple.

Horses were easy to obtain. Qiao Feng didn't have much money, but Yang Guo was a wealthy man. He still had some silver left from the imperial treasury in Baoding, so he could simply buy them.

If it weren't for his desire to avoid being too high-profile, Yang Guo would have wanted to stay at an official post station. He remembered that he seemed to have a minor official title of Guanglu Dafu, which was conferred by the Emperor Zhao when the original owner, Duan Yu, was eighteen years old. According to his rank, he should be able to stay at an official post station in the Song Dynasty.

A few days later, the two arrived at the foot of Mount Song and headed straight for Mount Shaoshi. This was the place where Qiao Feng had lived in his youth, and every scene was familiar.

Since Qiao Feng became the leader of the Beggars' Sect, the Beggars' Sect was the largest sect in the martial arts world, and the Shaolin Sect was the largest sect in the martial arts world. When the leader of the Beggars' Sect came to Shaolin, the various ceremonies and pomp would cause a great stir. Therefore, he never returned. He only sent people every year to present food and clothing to his parents and mentors as a sign of respect and to pay his respects.

Returning to his homeland, and knowing that the mystery of his origins would be revealed within an hour or two, even the usually calm and composed Qiao Feng couldn't help but feel uneasy.

Qiao Feng's former residence was located on a hillside in Shaoshi Mountain. The two quickly turned around the hillside, only to see a man in black rushing towards them from behind the house.

Who are you?

"What are you doing?"

Seeing that the enemy's approach was not right, Yang Guo and Qiao Feng quickly shouted loudly.

Unexpectedly, the other party did not speak to the two of them, but instead rushed towards the bedroom where Qiao Sanhuai and his wife were.

The person who came is an enemy, not a friend!

Yang Guo and Qiao Feng made the same judgment without prior agreement. Yang Guo didn't waste any words. He took out two pieces of silver from his body and flicked them with his left and right hands, using his finger-flicking skill to send them flying.

The man in black was clearly closer to the bedroom than Yang and Qiao. If they were not stopped, he would likely arrive before them, and Qiao Sanhuai and his wife would fall into his hands. Whether the man intended to harm the elderly couple or use them to threaten Yang, it was not what Yang wanted.

At this time, the two sides were still more than ten zhang apart. Of the martial arts skills Yang Guo had learned, only the Finger Flicking Divine Skill could injure people at this distance.

The man in black initially didn't take the two pieces of silver seriously. The two sides were more than ten feet apart. Even if the two pieces of silver could hit him, how much damage could they do?

However, this small pebble was launched by Yang Guo using his Finger Flicking Divine Skill. Although it was small in size, the sound of it cutting through the air was exceptionally loud, and it shot towards the face of the man in black.

The man in black sensed something was wrong. He channeled his inner energy into his hands and struck out with both palms, sending the two pieces of silver flying. However, he was momentarily stunned by the impact and was secretly surprised: "When I channel my inner energy into my palms, even ordinary swords and knives cannot harm me in the slightest. Yet today, I was struck by two pieces of silver and felt a slight pain. These small pebbles came from such a distance and still had such force. This person's skill is definitely no less than mine. When did the Central Plains martial arts world produce such a master?"

The crisis for the men in black is not over yet.

Just as Yang Guo unleashed his Finger Flicking Skill, Qiao Feng strode forward, flicked his left hand, and struck out with his right palm at the man in black.

Although Qiao Sanhuai and his wife were very likely not his biological parents, the kindness of raising them for thirty years was undeniable. When he saw that someone intended to harm the two elders, he was already extremely angry. He used all the power of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms. When he struck out, he was still more than ten feet away from the man in black, but he arrived in an instant. As soon as the power was generated from his palm, the two were only five or six feet apart.

In all the martial arts under heaven, no matter how strong your palm strike is, there is no palm strike that can reach more than five zhang away. The man in black never expected that this palm strike was aimed at him. Unexpectedly, as soon as Qiao Feng unleashed his palm strike, he had already moved to a distance of three zhang away from him, and then used the move "Regretful Dragon Soaring" again, pushing the front palm with the back palm, combining the power of both palms, and pressing down with overwhelming force.

In an instant, the man in black felt his breath catch in his throat, thinking to himself, "The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms truly lives up to its reputation as the number one palm technique in the world. It is so terrifying and unstoppable."

Even with his superior skills, he dared not face the attack head-on. He quickly raised his palms to protect himself, used his toes to propel himself backward, and gracefully retreated.

Qiao Feng followed up with another move, "The Dragon Regrets," and before the force of the previous palm strike had dissipated, the force of the next palm strike arrived.

The man in black swung his right palm diagonally, making contact with the bias of Qiao Feng's palm force. He immediately took advantage of the momentum and leaped three zhang away. Just as he was about to catch his breath, Yang Guo's Six Meridian Divine Sword also arrived.

According to the rules of the martial arts world, one should not harm one's family. This person is hiding his true colors and is likely to harm the two elders. The other party's actions have clearly crossed Yang Guo's bottom line. At this moment, Yang Guo can no longer care about the rules of the martial arts world and strikes the other party with his Shangyang Sword.

The six sword techniques of Shaoshang, Shangyang, Zhongchong, Guanchong, Shaochong, and Shaoze flew wildly, forcing the man in black to leap high and low, dodging east and west. Suddenly, with a "whoosh," one of the man in black's sleeves was cut off by the Shangyang sword, followed by a collision between the sword energy and the man in black's palm force.

The man in black felt a sudden tingling and numbness in his arm, and was greatly surprised. He quickly jumped back.

Having fought Yang Guo and Qiao Feng consecutively, the man in black knew he had truly met his match. On one side was Qiao Feng's powerful palm strike capable of shattering monuments and splitting rocks, and on the other was Yang Guo's unpredictable Six Meridian Divine Sword. The man in black might not even have a chance of winning in a one-on-one fight. Under the combined attack, he quickly showed signs of defeat and could only be forced to retreat repeatedly, struggling to defend himself and looking utterly disheveled.

This man's kung fu was also formidable, dodging Yang Guo's Six Meridian Divine Sword and Qiao Feng's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms with the slightest distance. However, he was already showing signs of defeat, and Yang Guo believed that he and Qiao Feng could defeat him within fifty moves.

During the battle, the men in black launched several fierce attacks, trying to find an opening to escape, but Yang Guo and Qiao Feng stopped them each time.

After several unsuccessful attempts to break through, the man in black suddenly let out a low shout, gathered all his strength in his palms, and launched a fierce attack.

If it were a one-on-one duel, Qiao Feng's best option would be to sidestep and wait for an opportunity to strike.

At this moment, Qiao Feng was filled with hatred and only wanted to quickly take down this person. He roared and, without dodging or avoiding, struck out to meet the opponent's palm force.

The moment their palms clashed, the man in black used the force of his palm to rush into the distance. With a flick of his sleeve, dozens of hidden weapons were scattered at the Qiao couple inside the house in a "rain of flowers" style.

Yang Guo originally planned to use the Six Meridian Divine Sword to block the opponent's retreat, but seeing that the opponent was so unethical, he was filled with resentment and had no choice but to deal with the hidden weapons aimed at the Qiao couple first.

This man in black is vicious, and his hidden weapon contains internal force. The two elders are not skilled in martial arts, so if the hidden weapon hits them, they will surely die.

Yang Guo flicked his six fingers in quick succession, knocking down the hidden weapons one after another. By the time he had freed his hands, Qiao Feng had already chased the man in black for quite some distance.

Qiao Feng's voice rang in his ears: "Brother, please take good care of my parents!"

Yang Guo originally intended to chase after the two, and with his lightness skill, even if he set off a little later, he might not be unable to catch up with them. However, after hearing Qiao Feng's words, Yang Guo stopped.

If this man in black has accomplices, wouldn't I be putting the Qiao family elders in danger again?
