The paladin's fists exploded like thunder in front of Hsu Fengnian's chest. The Horse Gang leader at the border had used a long time to cut open the mirage with his Xuan Hua Hatchet, but it was unexpectedly broken by this imperial attendant in a flash. He was originally surprised that this young macheteman could leak his Qi, but he did not expect that he would succeed in one blow. It was just a show. The paladin suddenly stretched his body in the air like an ape's arm and increased his strength to smash Hsu Fengnian's chest. He was determined to kill this reckless fledgling on the spot. Hsu Fengnian bent his body like a drawn bow. His head and feet did not move, and he used the depression of his chest and back to resist the tide-like punch. In a flash, his right hand pressed on the paladin's head and was about to smash it. The paladin sensed that something was wrong. This young man was really ruthless. They had just started fighting, and he wanted to destroy both jade and common stone. He used the method of killing a thousand enemies at the cost of eight hundred of his own men. The paladin retracted his head and leaned back. He kicked out with both legs, but they were blocked by Hsu Fengnian's left arm.
The paladin took advantage of the momentum to bounce back. His body stuck to the wall, and his hands hooked into the wooden planks like claws. When he was about to make a second counterattack, he felt a sharp pain in his heart. He looked down and was shocked. His heart had been pierced by a sharp hidden weapon. This young man clearly did not pull out his saber. The paladin did not realize it at the first moment because Hsu Fengnian's trick was really insidious and unheard of. First, he put on a fledgling posture to fight the paladin's fists and feet, and then he took out the sharpest and smallest of the twelve flying swords, the Suan Ni, and quietly "placed" it one foot behind the paladin.
The sword was sparkling and translucent, and its murderous aura was restrained to the extreme. If the Xuan Lei was said to be full of murderous aura after it was forged, like a swordsman who killed people from a thousand miles away, the longest flying sword, the Tai 'e, was like a bull carrying a cauldron, the Suan Ni was too unremarkable. It was as simple as a baby. Even if it was placed in front of the eyes, if ordinary people did not pay attention, they could only see a blurry mirror image, like a small piece of rippling water. When the paladin missed its attack and retreated, Hsu Fengnian only needed to slightly shift the Tai' e's position and aim it at the paladin's heart. As if the paladin was seeking its own death, the paladin's heart was pierced by the Tai 'e without any suspense. Unless one had an invincible body, it would be difficult to escape death.
When experts fought to the death, how could it be as poetic and picturesque as described by the storytellers and the Chronicles of Wandering Heroes? It had always been about who was superior and who was inferior. If they were not evenly matched, who would be willing to fight for three hundred rounds?
Murong Jiangshen, who was watching the battle, did not even know what had happened. In his eyes, the invincible paladin in the battlefield died an unnatural death as soon as it retreated. Its corpse fell to the bottom of the stairs, covering its chest that was bleeding like a fountain. The Qi of the Suan Ni flying sword remained in its body, hindering the paladin's futile attempt to recover its Qi. It could be said that after the Suan Ni cut, although it only created a narrow gap, it was like the end of the world, separated by yin and yang. This was also the meaning of the flying sword's name Suan Ni. Murong Jiangshen did not know what had happened, but when he saw the head of Tao Qianzhi's widow, his anger was mixed with a hint of fear. Being able to kill an imperial attendant with a flick of a finger, and being so young, could it be that he was a direct disciple of a prestigious school like the Chess and Sword Music School? It was said that Fatty Dong had a good relationship with the Chess and Sword Music School, one of the top five schools in Beimang. The daughter of the master of the Chess and Sword Music School was also ruined by Fatty Dong. What's done cannot be undone. Even if the master of the Chess and Sword Music School was a hero of Jianghu, he had to hold his nose and acquiesce to the marriage of his daughter to this damned fatty as a concubine. But would Fatty Dong, who was the best at weighing the pros and cons, really dare to offend the Murong family?
Hsu Fengnian walked down the stairs and sneered, "Murong Zhangtai, don't pretend to be asleep, or else Shopkeeper Xie will dig out your heart and liver and use it as a tonic."
Murong Zhangtai, who was lying on the table, still did not move. Xie Ling walked over and put the lady boss's head on the table. Then, with his five fingers like hooks, he fished out the heart of the handsome Murong family disciple, whose acupoints were sealed when he was carried down the stairs, and put it into his mouth to chew. Murong Jiangshen was scared out of his wits, he was furious, "Xie Ling 'an dares to harm my Murong family disciple?!"
Xie Ling's eyes were red, and his mouth was full of blood. He held the heart and liver in his hand and chewed it while looking at Murong Jiangshen, whose scalp was about to explode. This devil who had been led astray and could not turn back said without any emotion, "So it's a swordsman from the Chess and Sword Music School. The heart and liver of a righteous person is so delicious. Don't look at the same kind of heart and liver, but after eating a lot of them, you will know that each person has a different taste. Some people are like fat geese, greasy and nauseating, but not very beneficial. Some are like flying snakes and turtles, and some are slightly poisonous, but can cure diseases. Some are like crab meat, which is even more delicious after being frosted. They are already top grade, and can heal broken bones, just like the one in my hand. As for the young master with the sword, he has phoenix marrow and dragon liver, which can only be found by chance. I, Xie Ling, never look at a person's face, but only at his heart and liver. "
Everyone in the Duck Head Green Inn knew that Innkeeper Xie was a taciturn good person, and a sickly person. He was always amiable when dealing with people. However, they did not know that his good temper was cultivated by his heart and liver. Xie Ling said a lot for the first time, ignoring the timid Murong Jiangshen. He turned to Hsu Fengnian and said, "Since you know how to raise and ride a sword, you must have a good background. These two Murong people might not be as good as you. Why didn't you leave the sect later? You should at least wait until you reach the Vajra Realm. You killed someone, but you didn't run away. Obviously, you saw that I was seriously injured, and you think you can be bullied by dogs? Later, I will use my fingers to peel open your chest, and I guarantee that you will live to see your own heart beating. I will eat your heart and liver very carefully and slowly. Because of the severe pain, your Qi will concentrate on your heart and liver, and the taste of your heart and liver will be better. "
When the restless Murong Jiangshen heard that Xie Ling was seriously injured, it was as if he had grasped at a life-saving straw. He no longer cared about Murong Zhangtai's heart and liver, nor did he care about the little woman's head lying beside his feet. He quickly turned to Hsu Fengnian and said with utmost sincerity, "Young master, how about you and I work together to deal with this demon that everyone wants to kill? My Murong Clan will definitely thank young master! The disciples of the Murong Clan always keep their promises, and they value their promises more than their lives … "
Hsu Fengnian did not say anything. He saw Xie Ling's body darting out of the forest like a cheetah, rushing to Murong Jiangshen's front. He broke Murong Jiangshen's neck with one hand and hammered on Murong Jiangshen's waist with the other hand, accelerating the circulation of Murong Jiangshen's blood and Qi. Then, he lowered his head and bit on Murong Jiangshen's chest. As if he was drinking water, he swallowed the second heart of the day. Casually throwing away Murong Jiangshen's warm body, Xie Ling raised his head with an intoxicated and satisfied expression. This scene was not inferior to the cruel description of hell in the Buddhist scriptures. Those who were timid would have already fainted.
Xie Ling's pair of creepy blood-red eyes made people not dare to look into his eyes. On the second floor, a dizzy little girl was lying between the railings. When she saw that the demon had discovered her, the little girl burst into tears and curled up her delicate body. She thought that if she couldn't see the demon, the demon couldn't see her either. Xie Ling grinned hideously and dashed to the second floor. But Hsu Fengnian stabbed him and stepped on his waist, causing him to crash into a pillar. Under his stomp, the thick stone floor almost cracked. However, Xie Ling's body was soft and boneless. He circled around the pillar with his head and legs touching it. With a slight smile, he stared at Hsu Fengnian and said, "Young man, you are so impatient. I thought that this little girl who had the least right to live was your bait, but I didn't expect that you would be able to tell the truth just by testing her. I get it now, it's not that you want to kill Tao Qianzhi's widow, it's that she knows that she wants to live an ignoble life. She wants to die for her innocence, but she wants you to protect this little girl. So, it seems like you are indeed sent by Tao Qianzhi's sworn brother, Dong Zhuo. Are you from the pretentious Chess and Sword Music School, or the fox and tiger Mount Tibing? "
Hsu Fengnian, who spoke the most authentic Beimang accent, smiled and said, "If I say that I'm from Beiliang, would you believe me?"
Black blood seeped out of the corner of Xie Ling's mouth. It was unknown whether it was the backlash of the evil art or some other mystery. He said calmly, "Even if you say that you are the prince of the Liyang Dynasty, I would believe you."
Xie Ling's body slithered like a ghost. In the end, he bent his knees and nailed his hands and feet to the wooden pillar. Black blood and saliva mixed together and fell to the ground. The demon who ate people's hearts and livers to increase his power squeezed out a smile and said, "No matter who you are, your heart and livers are mine. I will hang your corpse in the desert and dry it. If you are unlucky, you will be eaten by eagles. "
Hsu Fengnian was expressionless, but his eyes were clear. Xie Ling probably didn't see the despair and fear he expected, so he flew into a rage out of humiliation. His feet broke the thick pillar and his body shot towards the young master who was carrying a short blade but riding a flying sword. The two collided, and the huge impact forced Hsu Fengnian's back to smash through the wall. Xie Ling, who was nimble beyond imagination, almost instantly broke through the wall and left the inn. A knee strike that could split iron and stone was stopped by Hsu Fengnian's hands. Xie Ling's fist landed solidly on his forehead. Hsu Fengnian's body flew back while his palm struck the demon's temple. One person flew back like a kite with a broken string, while the other person spun a few times in the air. In the time it took for a spark to fly off a piece of flint, both of them didn't hold back in their attacks. After landing, neither side showed the slightest bit of embarrassment. It was obvious that it would be difficult to determine the winner of this battle without dragging it out.
The red-eyed Xie Ling spat out a mouthful of blood and leisurely stretched his neck. He squinted his eyes and saw that the blood on the young master's forehead had gathered. It turned from bright red to purple, but it quickly faded away at a speed that was almost invisible to the naked eye. If Xie Ling's fist landed on a martial artist like Murong Jiang, it wouldn't be strange if all the meridians in his body were broken.
