Seeing Junior Leopard fall to the ground and spitting out blood, the black-cloaked man let out a soft sound of surprise. His eyes under the mask revealed a hint of surprise.
"Stop — —!"
Wen Huayang's voice sounded at this moment. He seemed to be very tired.
From the moment Xu Yong exploded to when Junior Leopard was struck, it was only a matter of two breaths.
Most of the Wen Mansion's disciples, servants, and guards didn't even see the sequence of events clearly. They only saw the Eldest Young Master, Wen Zhan, being picked up by the black-cloaked person again. Xu Yong and his disciple flew out while their Patriarch, Wen Huayang, stood up while trembling.
"Stop, I'll give you the Tianluo Dark Gold!"
Wen Huayang's expression was obscure, and his eyes were lifeless. After saying those words, it was as if he had used up his last bit of strength. His entire spirit, Qi, and spirit were relaxed. He slowly moved into the house behind him, and after a while, he walked out carrying a black box.
"This is the Tianluo Dark Gold!"
Wen Huayang said. He opened the lid of the box and revealed an irregular piece of light yellow metal.
The black-cloaked man didn't say anything. He raised his free right hand and took the box into his hand. His gaze swept across the box and nodded. "You are very sensible!"
He said with a hoarse voice. He loosened his hand and threw Wen Zhan on the ground as if he was throwing a broken cloth bag. He then closed the box and swept his gaze across the surroundings.
Wherever his gaze landed, everyone subconsciously took a step back. No one dared to look him in the eye.
"Hmph, a bunch of useless things!" The man sneered and kept the box into his wide sleeves. His body flashed and turned into a black light, disappearing on the spot.
Total silence.
In the backyard, it was as if the pause button was pressed. Total silence.
After a few breaths, with a "boom" sound, the backyard once again fell into chaos.
"Old Master, Old Master, are you alright …!"
"Young Master, quickly wake up. Quick, quickly bring water — —!"
… …
… … …
Total chaos!
"Damn it, next time I can't act like a hero like this!"
This was his last thought before he fell into a coma.
Of course, he did consider the consequences of his heroic behavior today. He was not reckless. At the moment when the black-robed man's fingertips touched Xu Yong's iron hammer, Junior Leopard clearly saw the black-robed man's fingers retract even though Xu Yong was sent flying. Although it seemed to be just a slight retraction, at that moment, Junior Leopard could even conclude that the black-robed man's Internal Breath was in disorder. Junior Leopard wanted to take advantage of the moment when the black-robed man's Internal Breath was in disorder to attack and take advantage of it.
Who would have thought that not only would he not be able to take advantage of her, he would also get himself into trouble?
This black-robed man had actually cultivated Gang Qi and possessed the strength of at least Level Seven.
Rank-7!
If he had known that his strength had reached this level, he would not have stood out even if he was beaten to death. This time, if he had not used the Force Unloading Technique of Tai Chi in time to remove the power of the Gang Qi, he would have been dead by now.
Similarly, Wen Huayang also saw clearly that the opponent's strength had reached at least Level Seven. That was why he obediently handed over the item.
A Level Seven expert, one person, could sweep the entire Wen Family, even the entire Ningzhou City.
A Level Seven expert who possessed Gang Qi was not afraid of being besieged, nor was he afraid of being consumed, nor was he afraid of being blocked. Under the situation where there was no expert of the same level, a Level Seven expert could basically kill a martial arts practitioner who was below Level Seven in seconds. At the same time, he was not afraid of being outnumbered.
Only when one's strength had reached Level Seven, could he be qualified to be called an expert!
The boundary between Level Seven and Level Six was bigger than the boundary between Level Four and Level Three. It was even more unimaginable.
"Doctor, is he alright?!"
In the guest room of the Wen Family, Xu Yong looked at Junior Leopard, who was lying on the bed with a pale face. He anxiously asked the doctor who had just felt his pulse.
"His internal organs have suffered a little impact and his tendons and meridians are also damaged. He needs to recuperate well. Fortunately, his foundation is deep and his body is strong, so there is no big problem. He only needs to recuperate well. Within two or three months, he can recover to his original state!"
"Thank you, doctor!"
Xu Yong's eyebrows relaxed, and his eyes turned to Junior Leopard who was in a coma, revealing a trace of appreciation.
The reason why Junior Leopard rushed out today was that the black-robed man had hit him and sent him flying. Junior Leopard was anxious and eager to save his teacher, so he rushed out. This made Xu Yong very gratified. He could see that although this boy was a little slick, he still respected his teacher from the bottom of his heart. Otherwise, he would not have risked his life to save him even though he knew that he was no match for the black-robed man.
Although Xu Yong was very annoyed with his reckless behavior, when he thought of his behavior and eyes, Xu Yong felt warm in his heart.
It was worthwhile to have such a disciple!
At the same time, he was also glad in his heart, "Fortunately, his internal organs were only shaken. If his foundation was hurt, it would not be good!"
Junior Leopard had a high power of understanding, good aptitude, and was sensible. Coupled with the loyalty he showed today, he was indeed an ideal successor. If his foundation was hurt because of what happened today, it would be too late for regrets.
It would not be easy to find another such an outstanding disciple.
"Slow-Witted Xu, this time I, Old Wen, have implicated you!"
Looking at Xu Yong's bitter and fortunate expression, Wen Huayang let out a sigh of relief. If Xu Yong's disciple really had any mishap in the Wen Family, he really wouldn't have the face to see anyone in the future.
"What are you talking about!"
Junior Leopard was fine, and Xu Yong's mood gradually relaxed. "Don't talk about this between you and me. Oh yeah, how's your injury? It's not serious, right?!"
"How could it be serious?!" Wen Huayang smiled bitterly. "That person was aiming for Tianluo Dark Gold. He didn't have any intention to hurt anyone. I don't know where he came from. He's actually a Level Seven expert. Could it be that experts are worthless now? Even in a place like Ningzhou City, there can be one! "
Ningzhou City was only a medium-sized city. In such a place, to be able to find an expert whose strength had reached Level Five was already very lucky. A Level Seven Tendon-Changing Realm expert was used by well-known families like the Wu Family to guard the house, just like the Wu Family's First Elder Lyu Yiyue!
To put it bluntly, a Tendon-Changing Realm expert, in the entire martial arts world, was similar to the ultimate existence of nuclear weapons. They were there to maintain the balance. No expert whose cultivation had reached Level Seven would be like the one last night, directly rushing into someone's house to snatch things. This was really a degrading thing.
However, in this Jianghu, the scariest thing was this kind of expert who wasn't afraid of degrading himself, just like Xue Wuya a few years ago.
For such a person, unless he was stopped by an expert of the same level, others simply couldn't do anything to him.
For a big family like the Wen Family that dominated Ningzhou City, even if the entire family's strength was used, they wouldn't be able to fight against him. Hence, when Wen Huayang found out that the opponent was a Level Seven expert, he immediately gave up.
This was a helpless but wise choice.
In this world, although there were also forces that restrained the Tendon-Changing Realm experts, in a sense, this kind of restraint was also very strong. However, such a small fight was not considered to violate any taboo. Not to mention that the opponent didn't kill anyone, even if the opponent killed the entire Wen Family until blood flowed like a river, no one would stand up for the Wen Family.
This time, the reason why Xu Yong came to Ningzhou City was to visit a friend was only one of the unimportant reasons. The most important reason was that he came for Wen Huayang's Tianluo Dark Gold.
Tianluo Dark Gold could be ranked among the Mysterious Objects in the world. It had an extremely strong conductive effect on Internal Breath. It was an excellent material for making magic weapons. For ordinary weapons, as long as a little bit of it was added, no matter if it was the degree of hardness or sharpness, it would be greatly increased. Of course, this was only one of its functions.
The reason why it could be called a Mysterious Object was that Tianluo Dark Gold could store and transform Evil Qi. It was a material for refining magic weapons.
In this world, the so-called magic weapons were the combination of Mysterious Objects and special techniques.
Using Evil Qi to condense some kind of Mysterious Object, causing it to have various kinds of magical functions. This was a magic weapon.
Magic weapons were divided into two types. One was a magic weapon, and the other was a celestial device.
The so-called magic weapon, hence its name, was a weapon that had magical powers, such as a sword, a knife, etc. These magic weapons, other than having the attack power of ordinary weapons, also had other magical powers. These powers were basically the result of using special techniques to refine Evil Qi into the weapon.
As for the celestial device, it was similar to the magic weapons in the Xianxia novels that Junior Leopard would read in the future. They had different functions.
Precisely because Mysterious Objects were hard to find, Evil Qi was hard to find, and special techniques were hard to practice, there were very few magic weapons in this world.
And Tianluo Dark Gold was one of the best materials to forge a magic weapon.
The Wen Family obtained Tianluo Dark Gold and wanted to use it to forge a magic weapon. However, Tianluo Dark Gold was a Mysterious Object, and what he obtained was in its original form. How could it be that easy to forge? Hence, Wen Huayang thought of his good friend, Xu Yong, and invited him over to let him melt this piece of Tianluo Dark Gold and forge the embryo of a magic weapon. Who would have thought that the news would actually leak out. Before Xu Yong could make a move, when the two of them were discussing what kind of magic weapon they wanted to forge with the Tianluo Dark Gold, the robbers came.
Junior Leopard recuperated in the Wen Family for a full ten days before his pneuma slightly recovered.
In these ten days, ginseng, deer antler, glossy ganoderma, sealwort, and all kinds of expensive tonics were sent into Junior Leopard's guest room like water, as if they were free.
Even a thick-skinned person like Junior Leopard felt embarrassed.
After a few more days, Junior Leopard's pneuma was almost recovered. Xu Yong brought Junior Leopard and left. Although Wen Huayang tried to persuade them to stay, Xu Yong was anxious to return home, and Junior Leopard didn't want to stay in the Wen Family to enjoy the treatment of the Old Master. Hence, Wen Huayang didn't make them stay.
Compared to the journey from Qinlingshan City to Ningzhou, the journey back was much more boring. At least they didn't encounter the incident of the Governor's Young Miss being beaten up. Instead, when they passed by Baiyun Town, they heard that the Azure Dragon Gang was already finished.
"This is their own bad luck. No one expected that they would meet the Governor's Young Miss in such a small town like Baiyun Town!" After hearing this news, Xu Yong said lightly. He said to Junior Leopard earnestly, "The scariest thing in Jianghu is to be a little unlucky. Once your luck is bad, no matter how high your martial arts are, you won't have a good ending. Just like us, from the moment we arrived at Baiyun Town, we were stained with bad luck. Hence, when we arrived at Ningzhou City, we weren't safe. We didn't complete our task, and we almost lost our lives there. Hence, when you travel Jianghu in the future, once you find that things aren't going your way, you should quickly find a place to hide. Don't bother about anything, lest you lose your life inexplicably!"
"Just like Xue Wuya!" Junior Leopard added in his heart. Thinking of Xue Wuya's experience, he felt that Xu Yong's words were more and more reasonable.
Xue Wuya was a Level Eight expert, but because he was a little unlucky to meet Lu Shaoyou, his luck continued to be unlucky. In the end, he was completely defeated by a Level One rookie.
