Martial Arts Crossover: Zhao Min, your sidekick is really something else.

To be honest, a man like him, with his good looks, sweet and polite manner, and who also compliments a girl's voice and appearance, would make any naive young girl blush and her heart race.

But after hearing this, Hua Yuenü felt acid reflux rising from her stomach.

Yes, it's disgusting.

She thought to herself, "This man has the face of the most handsome man in the world. I wonder how many young girls he has deceived with his smooth talk."

But if Xiao Yaoqing were to say those words, the feeling would be completely different.

Hua Yuenü frowned as she glanced at Jiang Feng, said nothing more, turned and left, coldly tossing out, "Come with me."

"this……"

Jiang Feng was stunned.

He was stunned to hear that Hua Yuenü's voice was even colder than before.

He had just thought that this girl was definitely his destiny, so why was she reacting like this?

Could it be that I've chosen the wrong path?

For the first time, Jiang Feng began to doubt his own charm.

But he quickly started walking and chased after her. Offending the beauty would really be inappropriate.

Hua Yuenü walked in front, with Jiang Feng following behind, and they entered the inner hall one after the other.

Jiang Feng was pondering how to get closer to Hua Yuenü when he heard her voice, which was as cold as ice.

She pointed to the tray she had brought on the table: "Now that you're awake, you don't need anyone to feed you your medicine. Just drink it yourself."

His tone was so cold, it felt like it could freeze a person's heart into a solid block.

Jiang Feng glanced at the tray on the table, then turned to Hua Yuenü: "Miss, were you the one taking care of me while I was unconscious?"

He paused, his tone tinged with fervor: "I truly don't know how to repay such a profound kindness, so perhaps..."

Before he could finish speaking, Hua Yuenü interrupted him, "No need to say anything more. Taking care of you wasn't my choice. Now that you're awake, we have nothing to do with each other anymore. Farewell."

After saying that, she turned and left without hesitation.

Is he really gone like that?!

"Why!"

Jiang Feng grew anxious and quickly called out to her, "Miss, could you tell me your name?"

The back hall was empty, and no one paid him any attention.

Jiang Feng stood there, stunned, his mind racing with the same thought.

"Did I offend her before?"

"Or did I do something to upset her?"

"I don't think so... then why did she give me the cold shoulder?"

Meanwhile, news of what happened inside the Yihua Palace had not yet reached the outside world.

No one knew that Jiang Feng had woken up, nor did anyone know about Hua Yuenü's cold attitude towards him.

Neither the Second Palace Master Lianxing nor Xiao Yaoqing knew.

At this moment, Lianxing was sitting behind Xiao Yaoqing, the two of them riding the same horse, heading towards Green Willow Manor in the Ganliang area.

If Zhao Min hadn't been watching from the side, Lianxing would have really wanted to reach out and hug Xiao Yaoqing's waist.

A large contingent of Yuan soldiers escorted them forward.

In the middle and at the back of the procession were rows of prison vans.

There were six vehicles in total.

Each car contained masters from six major sects.

As for those at the bottom who lack the ability—their fate is self-evident.

When we set off from Green Willow Manor to Bright Summit, we walked slowly so that we could stay behind the Emei Sect and avoid exposing such a large group.

It's different now.

There's no need to hide it now that all the members of the six major sects have been arrested.

Zhao Min even left some traces at each place where she captured people.

This was so that the Ming Cult members would discover it sooner or later.

The Ming Cult will definitely follow these clues to catch up.

In this way, the Ming Cult can be wiped out in one fell swoop.

After leaving the direction of Bright Peak, Zhao Min divided half of the Yuan soldiers and had them escort the prison carts of the six major sects back to Dadu and imprison them in Wan'an Temple.

She herself led a group of martial arts masters to Green Willow Manor, waiting for the Ming Cult members to walk into her trap.

Green Willow Villa.

At night, there is a pavilion in the middle of the pond outside the main gate of the hall.

The sword light flashed in the pavilion.

Zhao Min's figure floated gracefully, and she wielded the Heaven-Slaying Sword with great skill and power.

Sword energy burst forth one after another.

She unleashed all the sword techniques she had learned in her life.

The moonlight shone on the water, creating dappled patterns.

By the pond, Xiao Yaoqing stood quietly with his hands behind his back.

Standing next to him was the Second Palace Mistress, Lianxing, who had disabilities in both her left hand and left foot and walked with a limp.

There were only three of them in the entire garden.

At this moment, Lianxing's voice softly reached Xiao Yaoqing's ears:

"What a waste of such a fine sword."

Three black lines appeared on Xiao Yaoqing's forehead.

Zhao Min's martial arts skills were indeed not very good, but her swordsmanship had been honed to an extraordinary level.

Moonlight spilled into the courtyard, and Zhao Min's sword danced in the air as she moved with graceful ease.

Lianxing pursed her lips; that sword technique was nothing special in her eyes.

To her surprise, Xiao Yaoqing was actually quite envious of her skill level.

Little did she know, Xiao Yaoqing was thinking something else entirely.

Imagine the day you get into a fight, and the other person says, "Draw your sword!"

That way, he could draw the sword with dignity, without having to reply with "It's unnecessary."

.

Lianxing changed the subject, staring at the sword and saying:

"But this sword is unusual; I have a feeling that it holds some secret."

Xiao Yaoqing raised an eyebrow, looking at her with a hint of surprise.

This sword does indeed hold a secret, and a great secret at that.

In the original story, if Abbess Miejue hadn't personally told Zhou Zhiruo to find a secluded place to use the Heaven Sword to clash with the Dragon Saber, this secret would probably never have been discovered.

Poor Xing only watched Zhao Min dance with her sword for a short while, yet she could guess this much?

That's quite a sharp eye.

Lianxing felt a little uncomfortable under his gaze and blinked, asking:

"Brother, what do you think?"

That one "brother"

It's getting easier and easier to pronounce.

Xiao Yaoqing was quite pleased to hear this.

After all, the person in front of her was the Second Palace Master of the Yihua Palace, whose status and strength were undeniable.

He didn't intend to hide it and said directly:

"There is indeed something hidden inside this Heaven-Slaying Sword."

"Brother, do you really know?"

Lianxing's eyes lit up, her curiosity written all over her face.

Xiao Yaoqing smiled and nodded.

To be honest, it wouldn't matter if I told her the secrets of the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber.

Even if she knew what was hidden inside, she might not be interested.

As he watched Zhao Min dancing with her sword under the moonlight, he slowly said:

"The saying that has been circulating in the martial arts world for so many years is: 'The supreme martial arts weapon is the Dragon-Slaying Saber, which commands the world and none dare disobey. Without the Heaven-Reliant Sword, who can contend with it?'"

"What do you mean by that?"

Lianxing frowned and hesitated before saying:

"How come I've never heard of this before? Is it because I spend so much time in the Flower Palace?"

Xiao Yaoqing glanced at her, thinking: I'm talking about this world, not your original place.

But there was no way to explain this to her, so I could only take it as an admission of her guess and continue:

"Everyone outside knows this saying, but few understand why the Dragon-Slaying Saber commands the world."

"The Dragon-Slaying Saber?"

Lianxing repeated the name twice, then whispered, "Is there another sword in the martial world, just as mysterious as this one?"

Xiao Yaoqing nodded: "That's right, that knife is in the hands of Zhang Wuji's godfather."

"Zhang Wuji? The one you punched until he vomited blood, that good-for-nothing?"

Xiao Yaoqing's mind twitched, and three black lines climbed up his forehead again.

How could Zhang Wuji be described as a good-for-nothing?

In this world's setting, this person is a top-tier powerhouse!

But upon further reflection, Xiao Yaoqing didn't know how to respond to that.

When they fought on Bright Peak, he thought Zhang Wuji was ridiculously weak.

At the time, he thought that Zhang Wuji was crippled because Lianxing had taken away the manual of the Great Shift of Heaven and Earth.

Even without that skill, Abbot Kongwen of Shaolin Temple is no match for Zhang Wuji.

But thinking about it carefully, Zhang Wuji couldn't even beat Xiao Yaoqing himself, let alone Lianxing.

Looking at it this way, Zhang Wuji really is a weakling in front of her.

But Lianxing didn't dwell on the man; instead, she pressed him for details: "What secrets do the Dragon-Slaying Saber and the Heaven-Reliant Sword hold?"

Xiao Yaoqing glanced at Zhao Min beside him, then continued to tell Lianxing the story.

He recounted exactly what Abbess Miejue had said to Zhou Zhiruo.

They also gave a brief explanation of the significance of the "Wumu Legacy" and the power of top-tier martial arts like the "Nine Yin Manual".

After hearing this, Lianxing suddenly understood: "Oh, I see!"

"What truly commands the world is not some legendary sword that slays dragons, but the book hidden within it."

Xiao Yaoqing's lips twitched upon hearing this—what the hell is this "what book"?

.

However, she really doesn't need to take it too seriously.

But the next second, Lianxing uttered another earth-shattering statement:

"Brother, do you want that copy of the Nine Yin Manual?"

Xiao Yaoqing's eyes widened, and he suddenly turned to look at Lianxing.

What is the Nine Yin Manual?

That's a peerless skill on par with the Nine Yang Divine Skill!

Of course, what he was thinking about wasn't the half-baked Nine Yin White Bone Claw that Zhou Zhiruo and Song Qingshu practiced.

That thing was something Zhou Zhiruo practiced haphazardly in an attempt to quickly master it; she was lucky she didn't suffer a qi deviation.

Lianxing's words sound strange. Does she really have the Nine Yin Manual?

Logically speaking, she shouldn't know about this martial art at all.

Xiao Yaoqing raised an eyebrow and asked directly, "What, I want it, can you give it to me?"

Upon hearing this, Lianxing nodded without hesitation: "Brother, as long as you ask, I'll give it to you!"

Xiao Yaoqing: Fine, if you want it, I'll give it to you. Something about that doesn't sound right at all.

What are you giving me?

"Um?"

Xiao Yaoqing was taken aback, feeling that the conversation was going in a slightly off direction.

But... that's probably not what he meant, right?

Too lazy to argue, he pressed on, "How will you give it to me? Do you have the Nine Yin Manual?"

Lianxing shook her head decisively: "No, if you hadn't told me, I would have had no idea that such martial arts existed in the world."

Xiao Yaoqing silently gave her a look.

Lianxing realized he had misunderstood and quickly explained, "I don't have the Nine Yin Manual, but I have a way to get it out of the Heaven Sword!"

Xiao Yaoqing: ? ? ?

Lianxing continued, "Brother, didn't you say that the Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber could cut through iron like mud, and that only two divine weapons clashing together could break them?"

"I've seen the Heaven-Slaying Sword. It's certainly not an ordinary weapon, but it's not as amazing as they make it out to be."
