"Such arrogance." Suddenly, light twisted in the air and Huang Chang appeared next to Zhao Gou. He looked at Huang Yaoshi disdainfully. "That year at the Sword Meet of Mount Hua, how many masters did not participate? Do you really think you can rank in the top five?"
Huang Yaoshi indifferently said, "Although I am a proud and aloof person, I am not an arrogant person. Naturally I know that there are many experts who disdain to participate. But although my martial arts cannot be ranked among the top five in the world, I have never failed to kill someone in all these years."
As soon as he finished speaking, he shot a Flick Deity towards the center of Zhao Gou's brows. The sharp little pebble whizzed past with endless inner force, and everyone's ears went numb from the shock. Even if it was a master, let alone a normal person, if it hit the center of the brows, their head would probably explode.
Huang Yaoshi's martial art skill was very high. His sudden attack, coupled with the hatred in his heart, was perhaps the most powerful attack he had used in the last several decades.
Not to mention the ordinary imperial bodyguards, even the imperial weapons were unable to react in time. Only Li Yanshi, who had always been cautious and had been secretly on guard, was able to quickly draw his saber and block in front of the pebble. When the pebble and the saber collided, there was a crisp sound. His saber had already broken into two.
The pebble also turned to dust after being hit so hard. But Li Yanshi was not happy at all. Because the pebble scattered in all directions, the fragments also shot towards Zhao Gou with great power. It was like a storm of pear blossom needles shooting towards him.
At this moment, Li Yanshi even suspected that all of this was part of Huang Yaoshi's plan. He calculated that someone would stop him, so he purposely chose this special stone to catch people off guard.
The web between his thumb and forefinger was numb, how could he still have the strength to protect Zhao Gou? Ding Dian and the rest of the imperial weapons finally reacted and planned to act, but Huang Yaoshi's whole body flew over like lightning. The imperial weapons had no choice but to stop him.
They watched as the countless "hidden weapons" shot towards Zhao Gou. If they hit him, he would be turned into a beehive.
All of this took a long time to describe, but it all happened in a flash.
At that moment, Huang Chang suddenly attacked. He didn't seem to do anything, but he just swept his sleeve in front of Zhao Gou. All the stones that had been whistling in the air disappeared, as if his sleeve was a bottomless black hole.
Many people stared at Huang Yaoshi's sleeve in astonishment. It should be known that Huang Yaoshi's name was much more resounding in Jianghu than any ordinary person. His determined strike was easily neutralized, and his famous consummate skill couldn't even pierce through his opponent's sleeve. This was really too shocking.
Of course, only the few people closest to Zhao Gou knew Huang Chang's identity, and they all acted as if it was only natural.
At this time Huang Yaoshi pushed left and right and suddenly jumped out of the ring. He stood ten feet away and frowned as he looked at Zhang Wuji. "This stance seems to be the 'Flying Silk Strength' from the Nine Yin Manual. To be able to use the 'Flying Silk Power' to such perfection, you must be Huang Chang. " When his wife died because of the Nine Yin Manual, he swore that he would never practice the Nine Yin Manual again. But later on, his daughter and son-in-law were lucky enough to learn this martial art. Naturally, he also recognized the martial arts in the Manual.
It should be known that Guo Jing had practiced the Nine Yin Manual to the point where he could use both hardness and softness. But when this mysterious elder in front of him attacked, it felt as if he had returned to his natural state. He had truly reached the realm of nature, and his level was much higher than Guo Jing's. In addition, he knew of Huang Chang's existence beforehand, so he was able to confirm the identity of the person in front of him.
Huang Chang said calmly, "At that time, the country had just stabilized, and the people of Jianghu were fierce and aggressive. If they were incited by people with ulterior motives, it would be very easy for the country to split up again. So we could only think of a way to divert their attention. What happened to you was only because you were greedy, who can you blame?"
His entire family had died at the hands of the people of Jianghu, so naturally he did not have a good impression of the people of Jianghu.
"Good, good, good." Huang Yaoshi laughed coldly, "The people of Jianghu are all hot-blooded men who want to protect the country, but in your eyes, they are just fierce and aggressive people. You even purposely planned to get rid of them. What a joke."
Zhao Gou finally spoke, "You are just a peasant, how would you know about the matters of the court? Governing a country requires choices, and naturally there will be sacrifices."
"You still have the nerve to talk about governing a country!" Huang Yaoshi's tone was cold, "Originally, if you were a good Emperor, I would have tolerated this matter for the sake of the greater good. But what have you done all these years? Internally, you killed Yue Fei, destroyed your own Great Wall, and suppressed the peasant army. Externally, you wag your tail and beg for mercy, and pledge allegiance to the Jin. When both sides exchange letters, you can only call yourself the 'Loyal Emperor'. Every time the Jin send an envoy, you have to respectfully receive the edict, right? Such a cowardly Emperor, why not kill him and keep him? "
"Bastard!" Zhao Gou could not help but be angry.
Huang Chang's face darkened, and he said, "Those who speak of war may not necessarily be brave.
It was not easy for the country to settle down, if we start a war, won't the people be the ones to suffer in the end? "
Huang Yaoshi replied, "You make it sound so dignified, but Zhao Gou can become the Emperor, isn't it because he is the only surviving Prince of Hui Zong? All the generals saw him as their leader, but how many soldiers did he have at the time? Most of the country's army is controlled by a few generals. If we continue to fight with the Jin, the power of the army will grow, and when that time comes, there will be people who will follow Taizu's example and wear the yellow robe. The Zhao and Song dynasties have always guarded against military generals, and this concerns his own throne, how can Zhao Gou tolerate such a thing? "
Huang Shang frowned, "The right to drink wine and let go of military power is Taizu's national policy. Back then, the warlords of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms fought with each other, are those days any better?"
"I only know that all of you are sacrificing the interests of others. It's fine if you look down on us Jianghu bumpkins," Huang Yaoshi's voice became more and more severe, "but Zhao Gou sacrificed the interests of the whole country to humiliate the Jin for peace, and in turn, took care of all the famous generals in the country. Why did Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan start a rebellion, and why did Liu Guangshi's forty thousand soldiers surrender to the Jin in a fit of anger? Other people don't know, but don't you know? It's all thanks to Han Shizhong, Yue Fei, and the others' blind loyalty. Otherwise, how could he sit on the throne? "
"Elder Huang, kill this arrogant man!" Zhao Gou couldn't hold it in any longer, and he was furious.
Huang Shang also knew that he couldn't let him continue like this. If it affected the morale of the army, it would be troublesome. After all, they had to defeat Jia Shidao this time, and they couldn't afford to make any mistakes.
With a thought, he appeared in front of Huang Yaoshi, and his jade-like hand reached for his shoulder.
Huang Yaoshi had been on high alert, hastily he used all the skills he had learned in his life to fight the enemy. The Divine Sword Palm of the Fallen Flower was unleashed to the extreme, mixed with the Five Revolutions of Qi Men and Fierce Wind that he had been studying for the next Sword Meet on Mount Hua to deal with the other Five Masters. Unfortunately, no matter how hard he tried to dodge, the jade-like claws still followed him like a shadow, enveloping his vital acupoints.
At that moment, he seemed to understand how Xiaoxiang Zi and Yin Kexi felt. One day, he met Yang Guo by chance in an inn, and Yang Guo's martial arts had improved greatly. The two couldn't help but fight against each other, and Xiaoxiang Zi and Yin Kexi happened to run into each other, and they used their palms to push each other around like a ball. Xiaoxiang Zi, Yin Kexi, and Nimoxing were known as the Three Heroes of Mongolia. Back then, they had almost killed Guo Jing together with Jinlun Fawang, so their martial arts weren't weak. In the end, no matter how hard they tried to resist, they were still pushed around by the two. After that, they were laughed at as the Three Balls of Mongolia.
Huang Yaoshi suddenly had the same feeling. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't stop his opponent's casual grab.
But he was still one of the Five Greats, and in a moment of crisis, he used his special skill, the Divine Flicking Finger. Finally, his opponent's hand revealed an opening, and he took the opportunity to retreat.
"Huh?" Huang Yaoshi made a sound of surprise, but with a flick of his wrist, he seized the opportunity to grab Huang Yaoshi's waist. The whole process was done in one go, without any delay.
Huang Yaoshi didn't dare to use any more fancy moves, and used the Divine Flicking Finger for every move. He concentrated and blocked more than ten moves in a row. His forehead was soaked in cold sweat, and he felt the pressure increasing. His movements were becoming more and more difficult to move. He knew that in another three moves, he wouldn't be able to hold on.
At that moment, a grey shadow suddenly broke through the courtyard wall, and a fist flew towards Huang Yaoshi's body. This fist was as fast as lightning, and the wind from the fist blew up the small courtyard.
"Watch out!" Li Yanshi and the others only had time to shout, but they didn't have time to react.
Seeing that the fist was about to hit, Huang Yaoshi calmly smiled, "I've been waiting for you for a long time." If he hadn't held back his strength, how could Huang Yaoshi have lasted this long?
Huang Yaoshi waved his sleeve, and a thin, crystal-like hand reached out to grab the Human Vein Gate.
That person quickly changed his move, and his fist directly collided with the opponent's hand.
With a loud sound, the two figures separated. Huang Yaoshi stood with his hands behind his back, while his opponent's fist had a faint trace of blood. It was obvious that his opponent had suffered a great loss in that exchange.
Everyone carefully looked at the grey shadow, and saw that he had thick eyebrows and big eyes. His face had a simple air to it, and the most important thing was that he looked like a youth. Everyone was shocked. Which youth in this world had the strength to take on Huang Yaoshi's attack head on?
Ding Dian was half a person of Jianghu. Even though he had become an imperial guard, he still paid attention to the situation in Jianghu. Naturally, he recognized this youth who had once shone at the Golden Snake Gathering – Shi Potian.
Huang Yaoshi said in a low voice, "Last time in Yujin Garden, it was you who lured him away and caused Han Jiefu's death. This time, I will settle this debt with you."
Look!
It was obvious that the youth was not good with words. He only retorted with a red face, "That person is not a good person."
"So you are a good person?" Huang Yaoshi coldly snorted. He remembered that last time, it was because of this stinky brat that he made a mistake and caused Han Jiezhou to die in the palace. Because of this, the balance in the court that the emperor had worked so hard to maintain was completely broken. In the end, he had no choice but to set up this trip to Wudang. Just now, he had been preparing to plot against him, so when he saw the youth's simple appearance, he became even more angry.
As soon as he finished speaking, he attacked his opponent. Shi Potian was not good with words to begin with, and with Huang Yaoshi's merciless attacks, he had no time to be distracted. He could only use 120% of his concentration to fight back.
Not far away, the Doujiu Monk watched with amazement. "I wonder what kind of fortuitous encounter this youth had. His internal energy has actually reached the level where dragon and tiger meet, water and fire complement each other. With such a high level of internal energy, every movement of his is extremely powerful. Furthermore, his moves are so mysterious. There is a hint of the Isle of Chivalry's style, but there is also a difference in strength …"
He had traveled the world these past few years and had seen many things. Years ago, he had seen Zhang San and Li Si fight in secret. Even though this youth's martial arts were very different from Zhang San and Li Si's, when one's martial arts reached such a high level, he could naturally look at the source of the martial arts. Only then could he see that the youth's martial arts came from the same source as Zhang San and Li Si.
Huang Yaoshi, on the other hand, was frowning slightly. With his eyesight, he could quickly see that even though Shi Potian's martial arts were high, his experience was too shallow. If he were to fight against other masters, he could often rely on his exceptional internal energy to crush his opponent. But today, the person he was facing was a Grandmaster. His internal energy was no weaker than Huang Yaoshi's, and his battle experience was far superior. Naturally, it did not take long for him to gradually fall into a disadvantageous position. It was only by relying on his incomparably dense internal energy and some marvelous moves that he was able to hold on for a short period of time.
He looked at Zhao Gou with some reluctance. After the exchange just now, he knew the difference between himself and a Grandmaster. If he insisted on assassinating Shi Potian now, the monk would definitely make a move and he would definitely return empty-handed. Rather than that, he might as well cooperate with this youth to stall Huang Chang and leave the rest to the others.
He was an extremely intelligent person and instantly analyzed the pros and cons of the situation. His figure flashed and he entered the battle circle to help Shi Potian.
With his participation, Shi Potian gradually turned the tables. Huang Chang could not help but frown slightly.
Actually, whether it was Shi Potian or Huang Yaoshi, if they fought one on one, it would not be too difficult for Huang Chang to defeat the other. Maybe Shi Potian would be a little more troublesome, but it would only be a matter of a few more moves.
But if the two of them worked together, it would not be as simple as one plus one equals two. It must be known that Shi Potian, whether it was his internal energy or his moves, had actually already touched the threshold of the Grandmaster level. All he lacked was the accumulation of a few decades of experience and a deeper understanding of martial arts. It was not an exaggeration to call him a half-step Grandmaster.
Huang Yaoshi, on the other hand, did not lack experience or knowledge. What he lacked was his internal energy.
Therefore, he stood on the side and watched over Shi Potian. Many of Huang Chang's fake moves were resolved by Huang Yaoshi, while Huang Chang's real moves were handled by Shi Potian. In this way, the two of them worked together and actually managed to fight to a draw.
This was similar to the Battle of Shaoshi Mountain, when Xiao Feng fought against You Tanzhi and Murong Fu. You Tanzhi's internal energy was profound, and at the same time, it was mixed with the Yin Poison, which made Xiao Feng feel restricted in every aspect. However, it was not difficult for Xiao Feng to defeat him. Murong Fu, on the other hand, was rich in actual combat experience, and his moves were exquisite, but his internal energy was insufficient, which made it easy for Xiao Feng to defeat him. However, it just so happened that the two of them worked together, and their strengths complemented each other, making Xiao Feng feel restricted in every aspect. If it was not for Duan Yu pulling one of them away in time, even if Xiao Feng managed to win in the end, he would have to pay a heavy price.
Zhao Gou, who was standing on the side, had a gloomy expression. He hurriedly said to the Drunkard Monk, "Great Master, please help Mister Jianshan."
The Drunkard Monk shook his head. "If I join in, won't I be disrespecting Brother Jianshan? Don't worry, Sir. Brother Jianshan's cultivation base is world-shaking. Even if the opponents work together, they will only be able to last one or two hundred moves. They will not be able to escape death in the end. "
However, Zhao Gou said, "Great Master, please understand that this is not a martial arts competition in the Jianghu, but a matter that concerns the survival of the country. As the saying goes, even a lion will use its full strength to capture a rabbit. At this time, we don't know how many masters are hiding in the dark. If we don't take advantage of this opportunity to get rid of the two masters on the other side, they will swarm us later, and it will cause some variables to appear out of thin air."
The Drunkard Monk was stunned. "What Sir says is not without reason. If that's the case, this old monk will not care about those empty titles."
"Amitabha." Although he was prepared to attack, he did not want to launch a sneak attack. So, he took a step forward and shouted the name of Buddha to remind the other party. However, he suddenly paused, and looked to the side thoughtfully.
"Great Monk, your opponent is me. What's the point of bullying a junior?" At this moment, a figure slowly walked out of the bamboo forest.
