Martial Arts Crossover: It All Started with Hijacking Li Canghai

Chapter 58: Your knife isn't fast enough, nor powerful enough.

Pulling his thoughts back, Qin Han stopped thinking about it and spurred his horse forward at full speed towards the Tianshan Mountains.

Because it wasn't far away to begin with, and with the speed and clear direction we were heading, a majestic snow-capped mountain appeared on the horizon in less than ten minutes.

"Whoa—"

Qin Han reined in his horse at the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, bringing the panting steed to a stop. It was fortunate that Madam Ruan had given him a top-quality horse; otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to withstand his pampering.

Looking up at the colossal mountain before him, a strange look crossed his eyes. "How bizarre..." he couldn't help but chuckle to himself. "It's not far at all, yet I managed to get lost at the entrance and even considered turning back..."

However, if he hadn't gotten lost, he wouldn't have encountered Li Xunhuan's carriage, and if he hadn't met Li Xunhuan, he wouldn't have been able to determine the direction of Tianshan so quickly.

All of this seemed to be preordained.

Qin Han subconsciously touched his chest. "Could this be... the effect of sharing 'fortune'?"

In the original novel, Cheng Ying's luck was actually incredibly good.

When she was a child, she was deceived by Yang Guo and almost sold to a brothel. This should have been a great tragedy in her life, but she unexpectedly met the elusive Huang Yaoshi, one of the Five Greats, on the way. She was even taken in by this grandmaster and became his last disciple.

From an orphan girl who almost fell into prostitution, she leaped to become the last disciple of Peach Blossom Island. Isn't that incredible luck?

Now, it seems that Cheng Ying's incredible luck has been shared with Qin Han.

and so……

"So, I got lost, but just happened to run into Li Xunhuan, who had just returned from beyond the Great Wall and knew the exact location of the Tianshan Mountains?"

Qin Han felt that this was probably the case; behind this seemingly coincidental situation was actually the mysterious power of "fortune" at work.

It won't give you mountains of gold and silver, nor will it let you find a peerless secret manual as soon as you step out the door, but it will provide you with a just-right opportunity at a crucial moment.

Just like this time, if Qin Han hadn't met Li Xunhuan, he might have really missed his chance at the door and gotten lost. Not only would he have missed the best opportunity for the Heavenly Child Granny to regain her youth, but he also wouldn't have met the legendary figure Li Xunhuan.

"My dear wife is really good, and her luck is definitely a great ability," Qin Han thought with a burning desire.

With this boost in fortune, the road ahead will undoubtedly be much smoother. And this is just for Cheng Ying, the wife. What about the other female leads?

He led the intelligent horse to an ancient pine tree that could shelter it from most of the wind and snow. He thought about tying it up, but then decided against it. He wasn't sure when he would be back, and he didn't want the horse to freeze or starve to death by then. He decided to leave it there.

When it gets too cold or hungry, they will leave on their own and won't be trapped here to die.

His gaze deepened as he looked up at the Heavenly Mountain. He channeled the Northern Darkness True Qi within his body to his feet, and silently swept towards the Heavenly Mountain.

"Whoosh, whoosh..."

His figure blurred into afterimages as he swiftly sped upwards along the steep mountainside.

As he climbed to a platform halfway up the Tianshan Mountains, preparing to continue upwards, his ears twitched slightly, and his eyes, piercing through the wind and snow in the night sky, keenly spotted a furtive figure on the mountainside.

The figure was wrapped in a thick fur coat and held a large knife in his hand. He kept looking up at the mountain, looking restless, anxious and conflicted.

"Hmm? There are still people here so late at night?" Qin Han's heart skipped a beat. He flashed behind a huge rock, concealed his aura, and began to observe carefully.

In the dead of night, with snow falling heavily, no normal person would wander around in such a godforsaken place.

Moreover, this is Tianshan, the territory of Lingjiu Palace. This person's behavior is so suspicious, could he be a disciple of Lingjiu Palace?

A thought flashed through Qin Han's mind, and he instantly recalled a key issue: the original text stated that going to Lingjiu Palace was not an easy task, as the mountain path was riddled with traps and various strange formations.

If you venture into the mountains without a guide, you might not only fail to find Lingjiu Palace, but you could also lose your life along the way.

The sneaky guy in front of me doesn't look like a good person at all.

But since he dares to linger here, he might know the way up the mountain!

Qin Han grinned mischievously. It was just like a pillow being delivered to someone who was about to fall asleep. He was just worrying about how to get up the mountain, and here came a ready-made guide.

Realizing that the person was only of first-rate strength, he silently floated down from the mountainside.

The furtive figure continued pacing anxiously, muttering to itself, completely unaware of Qin Han's approach...

"Damn it, I shouldn't have taken this job. Why hasn't anyone come down yet? Should I go up and check...?"

Just as he was talking to himself, a playful voice suddenly rang out behind him.

"What would you like to see?"

"Look...look at the situation up there..."

The man subconsciously replied, but he froze as soon as he spoke, a chill ran straight to his head, and the hairs on his body stood on end!

someone!

Someone silently crept up behind me, and I didn't even notice!

The newcomer is a master!

This man was also someone who lived a life of constant danger; despite his shock, he reacted quickly.

He didn't turn around to see who was behind him, but instead shouted, "Who?!"

With a roar, he twisted his waist, and the Green Wave Dew Blade he had been holding drew an arc, slashing fiercely at the person who had spoken behind him!

This strike used almost all of his strength; even a top-tier martial arts master would have to temporarily avoid its sharp edge in the face of such a sudden attack.

But what happened next terrified the man so much that he almost lost his mind.

Faced with this fatal blow that could shatter stone tablets, the figure behind him merely let out a soft sneer.

A large hand arrived first, its index and middle fingers joined together, meeting the gleaming green blade.

"Clang!"

The collision produced a metallic clang.

The Green Wave Fragrance Knife, powerful enough to cleave a tree as thick as a bowl in two, was abruptly suspended in mid-air, firmly held between those two fingers!

The blade was less than three inches away from Qin Han!

"Wh...what?!"

The man wielding the knife couldn't help but gasp in shock, his face filled with disbelief.

No matter how much internal energy he channeled or how hard he exerted himself, the blade remained motionless, as if it were welded to the other's fingers.

How is this possible?!

Catching a blade barehanded is not uncommon, but to catch someone's full-force attack with just two fingers—just how terrifyingly profound must that opponent's skill be?

"Your knife doesn't seem fast enough or powerful enough."
