Wang Shifeng was rendered speechless by Su Xin's refutation. Su Xin waved his hand while carrying the wine pot and said, "Brother Wang, if there is nothing else, I will be leaving."
Wang Shifeng could only smile bitterly and cup his hands, "That's good. Brother Su, we will meet again if fate wills it."
Looking at Su Xin's departing back, Wang Shifeng felt that this Su Xin was not as sinister and ruthless as the rumors in Jianghu said. It was just that his style of doing things was slightly extreme.
Although Wang Shifeng did not agree with the things that Su Xin said, he did not have any good reason to refute him.
After saying goodbye to Wang Shifeng, Su Xin turned around and returned to his residence. Although he had killed people today, he was still not happy in his heart.
Such a great opportunity to break through was ruined by those two bastards. If Su Xin was really proficient in the Death of a Thousand Cuts, he would really make those two live a life worse than death. He was not joking when he said these words.
Just when Su Xin had already fallen asleep, in the largest brothel of the Jiangnan Prefecture, the Drunken Phoenix Brothel, 'Martial Tanhua' Li Chenfeng was drinking alone to drown his sorrows. The pretty brothel dancers beside him had all been chased to the side by him.
In these few days, Li Chenfeng finally felt what was called the sinister nature of people.
He was only defeated by Su Xin once, and many people said that he did not live up to his reputation. His 22nd position on the Ranking List of Young Masters was really fake, which was why he was so easily stepped on by Su Xin.
And some rogue martial artists rushed over like flies to challenge him. These people really thought that Li Chenfeng was made of mud. He couldn't beat Su Xin, but could he not beat this pile of trash?
Li Chenfeng still knew that he had to protect the face of the Li Family and his own reputation, so he didn't directly kill the challenger like Su Xin. Otherwise, the Jianghu would say that Li Chenfeng had flown into a rage out of humiliation and killed a martial artist who challenged him. His reputation would be thoroughly ruined.
However, these flies were really too annoying. They always wanted to step on him to advance. Li Chenfeng seriously injured a person in a fit of anger, but he was also called narrow-minded and so on.
At that time, Li Chenfeng wished that he could be Su Xin and start a massacre without caring about anything. Fortunately, he still had some rationality and forcefully endured it. That was why he was drinking here at night to drown his sorrows. However, in his heart, he already hated Su Xin to the bone.
In any case, in his opinion, all of this was caused by Su Xin. If Su Xin hadn't stepped on his position on the Ranking List of Young Masters, this wouldn't have happened.
Although this kind of thinking was very extreme, Li Chenfeng couldn't suppress this kind of thinking in his heart. The more he thought about it, the more hatred he felt.
Just as he was gnashing his teeth, a voice rang out, "Brother Li, why are you drinking alone? That's not like you. "
Li Chenfeng raised his head and saw a Daoist in his thirties standing in front of him. He was handsome and elegant.
"Brother Hu? Why are you here? "Li Chenfeng asked in surprise.
This Daoist was also very famous, but that was in the past.
This Daoist was called Hu Jingyan. His nickname was "Flowing Shadow Daoist Sword." He was a disciple of Qingcheng sword school and ranked 18th on the previous Ranking List of Young Masters.
Although Hu Jingyan looked like he was in his early thirties, he was actually almost 40 years old. Later, because he was too old, he fell out of the Ranking List of Young Masters.
In recent years, Hu Jingyan had been cultivating at Qingcheng sword school. It was rare to see him in the Jianghu. Li Chenfeng could only recognize him because before he entered Qingcheng sword school, he was a member of the Longxi Hu family.
The Hu family was not as powerful as the Li family. It was a second-rate family with only one warrior in the Soul Transformation Realm. However, the Hu family had a good relationship with the Li family, so they often practiced martial arts together when they were young.
Hu Jingyan didn't stand on ceremony. He sat down cross-legged in front of Li Chenfeng. He picked up the wine pot and poured himself a cup of wine. He took a sip in satisfaction and said, "Originally, I was doing well in isolation at Qingcheng sword school. However, as you know, our Qingcheng sword school really doesn't have any outstanding disciples in this generation. However, the invitation for the Jiangnan Conference has already been handed over, so the sect leader had no choice but to call me up and let me participate in this year's Jiangnan Conference."
Li Chenfeng nodded, but his face suddenly darkened again. This was because he thought of Su Xin.
Although Qingcheng sword school didn't have any outstanding disciples in this generation, at least there was Fang Dongting who had entered the Ranking List of Young Masters.
However, two years ago, Fang Dongting had already been killed by Su Xin. That was why Hu Jingyan was sent down the mountain. Li Chenfeng was very unhappy that such a small matter could be related to Su Xin.
Seeing Li Chenfeng like this, Hu Jingyan couldn't help but laugh. "Brother Li, you used to be known as the number one of the younger generation in Longxi. You fought against the sons of the nobles of the Zhou Kingdom. Although you lost in the end, you still got the title of Tanhua. However, you have no fighting spirit now.
If you have anything to say, you can tell me. Don't keep it to yourself. Otherwise, the more you hold it in, the more uncomfortable you feel. "
Li Chenfeng and Hu Jingyan had known each other since they were young. When they were young, Hu Jingyan was the oldest. He had even played games with him, so Li Chenfeng didn't hide anything from him. He directly told Hu Jingyan everything that had happened.
But after Hu Jingyan finished listening, he shook his head and said, "Brother Li, oh Brother Li, you were too rash this time.
The Ranking List of Young Masters isn't as simple as you think it is. If you lose, you get lost. If you win, you'll be promoted.
Therefore, every cultivator on the Ranking List of Young Masters will train hard. Not to mention climbing up, they have to at least keep their current position.
And if you want to challenge the higher ranks, you have to be even more cautious. As the saying goes, know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated. You didn't even have detailed information about your opponent, yet you dared to rush out and challenge him. It would be strange if you didn't lose. "
Li Chenfeng blushed slightly at Hu Jingyan's words. At the time, he really didn't think too much. When he saw Su Xin, who had pushed him off the Ranking List of Young Masters, appear, he immediately provoked him and provoked him into a fight. Now, it seemed that he had indeed been too rash.
But Li Chenfeng didn't have any experience in this area. He was on the Ranking List of Young Masters because he had reached the sky in one step.
In the past, when he was in the Li family, he had been focused on cultivation. It wasn't until last year's martial examination that he was released by the family to participate in the martial examination. In the martial examination, he amazed the world with a single feat and obtained the third flower position. In one leap, he went from a nobody to a powerful cultivator ranked twenty-second on the Ranking List of Young Masters. This was also the reason why other people in the Jianghu didn't like Li Chenfeng.
You, a nobody, suddenly jumped onto the Ranking List of Young Masters without even passing through. Anyone would feel that it was too sudden.
And when Li Chenfeng finished the martial examination, he had to prepare to break through to the Spirit Aperture Realm, so he didn't continue to communicate or fight with other martial artists on the Ranking List of Young Masters. Therefore, he really didn't know as much about the Ranking List of Young Masters as Hu Jingyan, who had been on the Ranking List of Young Masters for more than a decade.
Li Chenfeng couldn't help but ask, "Brother Hu, then what do you think I should do now? I can't take this lying down! "
Hu Jingyan pondered for a moment and said, "It's easy to take revenge. Brother Li, let me be honest with you. Do you have the confidence to defeat Su Xin?"
Li Chenfeng wanted to say yes, but in the end, he shook his head helplessly and said, "No."
As much as he didn't want to admit it, Su Xin's abilities were indeed beyond his imagination. Even if he used all his skills, he wouldn't be able to defeat him.
"But Brother Hu, I don't have it, but you do. You used to rank eighteenth on the Ranking List of Young Masters. Your Flowing Shadow Sword can be divided into tens of thousands and is unpredictable. Now you're at the pinnacle of the Divinity Stage, right? Don't tell me you can't defeat Su Xin? "Li Chenfeng asked expectantly.
Hu Jingyan shook his head and said, "That Su Xin killed disciples of my Qingcheng sword school, so he has a grudge against my Qingcheng sword school. Of course, I want to deal with him, but I can't do that in a place like the Jiangnan Gathering.
In the Jiangnan Gathering, we represent the forces behind us.
This is a gathering of the younger generation in the Underworld, and I'm on the Ranking List of Young Masters. If I were to make a move, it would be considered as suppressing the younger generation in the Underworld. Both my reputation and that of Qingcheng sword school would be affected. "
"Is there no way we can deal with that Su Xin?" Li Chenfeng was still a little unwilling to give up.
Hu Jingyan's eyes lit up, and he mumbled, "It's not that there's no way. I can't openly deal with him, but if there's an excuse for me to attack him openly, then not only will the other Underworld people not be able to say anything bad about me, but they'll even praise me, then I can attack him without any qualms."
"Then how do we find this excuse?" Li Chenfeng asked.
Hu Jingyan laughed coldly and said, "Didn't that Su Xin kill a Lone Cultivator who came to challenge him a few days ago? Let's start with them. Although these people are annoying, they still have some use. "
As he spoke, Hu Jingyan pulled Li Chenfeng over and whispered a few words into his ear. Li Chenfeng suddenly understood and gave Hu Jingyan a thumbs-up.
After the two of them drank, Hu Jingyan left, but Li Chenfeng walked toward the inn where the Lone Cultivators were staying.
To be honest, Li Chenfeng didn't think much of these Lone Cultivators. To him, these people were as disgusting as flies.
There were two types of Lone Cultivators in the Jianghu. One type had strength and talent, but for some reason or because they liked freedom, they didn't want to be tied down, so they didn't join the Martial World factions.
The second type had average strength. The larger Martial World factions didn't want them, so these people had to find their own way out.
Most of these Lone Cultivators would work hard in the Jianghu.
An extremely small number would be like Liu Tianyuan, who had been killed by Su Xin. They would show up at the Jiangnan Conference and try to exchange a few blows with some Ranking Man cultivator to gain some experience. Then they would go to some small place and trick some local bumpkins to become a guest elder of some small sect or family, and become a king.
These flies were the most annoying. If it was any other time, and they dared to stick to him so shamelessly, Li Chenfeng would definitely kill them with one strike.
But at a time like this at the Jiangnan Conference, countless eyes were watching. He couldn't, or rather, didn't dare to, do anything too outrageous to avoid attracting criticism.
Only someone like Su Xin, who didn't care about his reputation, would dare to kill Liu Tianyuan with one strike, so that no one would dare to disturb him again.
