Republic of China Era: Entering the Dao through Divine Strike.

"Should we sneak in?"

"No need. Look at those Erlang Shen plays and legends, such as 'Erlang Splitting the Mountain,' 'The Seven Sages' Oath of Brotherhood,' and 'Fighting in All Directions.' Have you ever seen any of those great gods secretly doing anything?"

"No, not at all," Zhuang Hongxiu answered honestly.

"If Erlang Shen were in this situation, what would he do?"

"He will charge straight in and beat everyone until they bow their heads in submission and are completely convinced."

Zhuang Hongxiu replied without hesitation.

"There's no need for me to be convinced; I just want to fit the character."

Li Xin said something that Zhuang Hongxiu couldn't understand.

Carrying the treasured sword "Marquis Xinting," he walked directly towards the gate.

I stood at the door and listened for a little while...

Dozens of voices formed personality profiles in his mind.

Soon enough, I heard the news I wanted to hear.

"To be honest, we could have just killed those two kids, but we only broke one of their legs. Third Senior Brother is really too kind-hearted."

What's the point of killing them?

My master said, tricks must be performed slowly. First...

Break his leg, then cut off his business. Next, have your men keep an eye on him from a distance.

What was it called again?

This is called being "besieged on all sides."

"Isn't it 'Ambush from Ten Sides'?"

"Are you stupid? Do you really dare to ambush him? If you push him too far, it can be very dangerous."

"That's right. Next time, I'll make the arrangements. I'll make him suffer to the extreme and let him show off to Master."

Everyone, please don't fight over it. I'll treat you all to a get-together at Bazhenlou afterwards..."

Laughter and merriment filled the courtyard, accompanied by the sounds of clinking glasses and exchanging toasts.

These people were clearly already quite intoxicated.

“They need water, right? I think we could secretly put some medicine in their water when they’re carrying it.”

"That's ruthless! Haha, why don't we take advantage of Li Xin's absence and jump over the wall to get in?"

He didn't have any other experts in his courtyard, but he did have a beautiful and charming young lady, hehe..."

The people inside the courtyard burst into laughter.

Li Xin, standing outside the courtyard, was also smiling.

What he was thinking was that, if he was going to play the role of Nezha, the Third Prince, he would kill the dragon and extract its tendons at the very beginning of the dragon's emergence from the water to finish off the role and help the Third Prince digest the divine will.

This allowed the first level of the Third Prince's divine intention to be perfected.

Therefore, the process of portraying Erlang Shen should be a completely different route.

This path is not one of making a name for oneself through killing.

In fact, whether or not to kill him was not important to Erlang Shen.

He was not bloodthirsty.

His reputation among the people is mainly based on his roles as a protector of his sister, a rescuer of his mother, and a war god.

【Qingyuan Miaodao Zhenjun】The word "Miao" in the title says it all.

His swordsmanship is unparalleled, divine, and the gateway to all wonders.

How did he acquire his brothers and bandits? By defeating them.

The title of God of War in Heaven was earned through battle.

Therefore, in Li Xin's understanding, the first thing to do to play Erlang Shen is to be good at fighting.

The actor playing Nezha has already taken the lead.

The portrayal of Erlang Shen also needs to keep up.

The most difficult role was probably that of the Monkey King.

The scene of "Havoc in Heaven" is a famous one, and just thinking about it makes it an extremely difficult task to complete. I don't know where to start yet.

Li Xin strode forward.

Behind her was Zhuang Hongxiu, whose anger couldn't be hidden even with a mask on.

She had clearly heard some foul language in the yard and felt extremely uncomfortable.

……

Chapter 112 Too Lacking in Strategy

"Who are you? If you wish to become my disciple, please prepare generous gifts and sincerely pay your respects."

A burly man glared at him and blocked his way.

In the dim light outside the door, it was clear that the two people who came were on foot.

You don't even have a carriage, how dare you come to my door?

"Hey..."

A gleaming blade of light appeared.

The man reached out to push Li Xin in the chest, but suddenly stopped.

The next moment, the head tilted on the neck and rolled off the shoulder.

This knife is too sharp.

Li Xin silently sensed the light of the blade cutting off heads as gently as skimming water.

He shouted loudly:

"You heretics, your Grandpa Yang is here! Hurry up and come forward to die!"

I don't know if it's because the performance wasn't convincing enough, or if the image just wasn't deeply ingrained in people's minds.

So much so that none of the people in the courtyard recognized their own three-eyed mask...

Then we'll have to do the advertising ourselves.

Otherwise, it might not work.

Glancing at the progress of his understanding of the divine intent in his mental status bar, Li Xin felt a little worried.

"Erlang Shen, it's Erlang Shen who's come knocking on our door."

"They even brought a woman with them; that's incredibly presumptuous."

"I have never seen such an arrogant and domineering person."

The first to arrive was a young man with two oddly shaped swords tucked behind his waist.

Although the man's face showed signs of intoxication, it did not affect his speed at all.

With muddy steps, they slid and glided forward on the water-polished bricks.

He was short in stature, wielding two swords diagonally, one aimed at the throat, the other at the waist and ribs.

"The Mandarin Duck Axes were used quite well."

Li Xin commented, then flicked the back of his blade, deflecting the short knife aimed at his throat.

The blade bounced back using the force, and the hilt struck the incoming blade at the waist.

He kept walking, extending his long sword forward as he went.

puff……

The knife tip pierced right through the other person's throat.

With a single kick, the man was sent flying backwards.

They were already dead before they even landed.

Fifth Junior Brother.

Several men were about to rush forward when they saw this scene, and their eyes showed fear.

Under the Tianxing Sect, the eldest brother, the third brother, and the fifth brother are all formidable figures who have achieved mastery of internal energy cultivation.

Unless they encounter a renowned master, ordinary martial arts figures are no match for them.

After all, he is a direct descendant of a famous family, and his skills and techniques are all top-notch.

The three senior brothers have already mastered the Xuanbing Jin (Mysterious Ice Force), which can turn water droplets into ice.

A short spear, extremely powerful.

Fifth Brother, with his Mandarin Duck Axes, has also killed many heroes of the greenwood.

His knife skills were extremely exquisite.

But what they just witnessed made them realize that the newcomer was someone they couldn't handle at all.

The fifth junior brother, known for his ingenious moves, couldn't even last a single exchange against the opponent's longsword.

"Fellow disciples, let's attack together."

Third Senior Brother Yu Zhengxin brandished his short spear, which made a whistling sound.

With one step, his figure moved swiftly.

The two beside him also brandished swords and spears... and attacked in a triangular formation.

"It does have a certain grandeur."

Li Xin concealed his knife behind his elbow, while a short spear pierced diagonally through his chest at a point three inches from his waist.

Just as the third senior brother, Yu Zheng, was about to unleash his Xuanbing Force, he felt a slight chill at his waist.

The hissing sound of the wind was in my ears.

He felt all his strength draining away.

He knew he had been stabbed in the left rib.

Terrified, he roared and swung his short spear with increased force.

Out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that his two junior brothers, who had rushed up at the same time as him, seemed to be shorter.

wrong.

Where are their heads?

As the two people beside him collapsed to the ground, blood gushed from the headless body.

Yu Zhengcai stumbled but managed to regain his footing.

He looked down at his waist.

A knife mark could be seen, slashing from left to right.

Blood gushed out wildly from between his waist and abdomen.

"I, I...you are Li Xin."

Yu Zheng, who had been cut in half at the waist, looked at the cold gaze beneath that ridiculous mask not far away and finally realized what was happening.

Where in the world are there so many unnamed masters?

He had only heard of one other expert like Gao Cheng recently.

That person, however, was known for his ruthlessness and indiscriminate killing.

Upon arriving, they adopted a ruthless and annihilating stance.

After taking two or three steps forward, he killed four people, including himself.
