Chapter 572: Can’t Eat Without Paying and Rolling Away!
“It seems like I also need to quickly pass down the few martial arts techniques belonging to the Suppression Chamber,” Lin Cangbo said with a sigh after a while. Since Chu Fengyun had found a martial arts technique that could restrain Mo Kongyuan’s Great Fists Skill, it was more likely than not that he had also already found a way to deal with him as well, and he would not be able to defend himself against it.
“Therefore, Brother Lin, promise me that if anything happens to me this time, Ling Chuxi will take over my place as the guardian of Nan Xia Country. And when that time comes, please help her all the more. Her innate talent is not bad indeed, but she is after all, still very young. Her cultivation experience is lacking,” Mo Kongyuan said in a deep voice. A hint of a smile and even a thread of pride appeared in his eyes as he said this.
“You are extremely confident in her abilities, and you are even sure that she will be able to pass the tests conducted by those other few old monsters,” said Lin Cangbo with a smile.
“If I don’t even have this much confidence in her, why would I have taught her my Great Fists Skill?” Mo Kongyuan replied conceitedly.
“Don’t be so proud at such an early stage. I will not make things difficult for her, but Shang Yuan Country was forced to forfeit during the last great assessment competition which she won, and Xie Wuji, that old monster, keeps harping on about it. I’m only afraid that things will not go as you wish because when the time comes for him to test her, it is inevitable that he would purposely make things difficult,” said Lin Cangbo as he shook his head.
“Hmph, if he dares to purposely make things difficult for my proposed successor, don’t blame me for not giving him any face,” retorted Mo Kongyuan disdainfully as his body emitted a cold, chilling intent. One had to say, Mo Kongyuan’s ways of protecting his own was actually the same as Ling Chuxi’s. No matter what, the people he counted as his own were always good, and those who were in the wrong were always people belonging to other’s. Daring to touch his own people meant incurring his wrath, one cannot eat to their heart’s content without paying and walking away, no, rolling away.
Lin Cangbo was slightly stunned. He had not met Mo Kongyuan for a few years and indeed, Mo Kongyuan’s cultivation had actually improved quite a bit. However, he was still so worried about the matter regarding Little Silver Ancient Mountain and had even talked about picking a successor. Lin Cangbo’s mood could not help but turn heavy.
…
At the same time, in Ding Lin Country, within the confines of a secret room in Wu Feng Hall, Feng Zitian was kneeling in front of an old man. This old man was a Great Worshipper of Wu Feng Hall, who was also the guardian of Ding Lin Country—Chu Fengyun.
“Master, I’m back,” said Feng Zitian respectfully.
“Get up. How is the matter you were entrusted to handle going?” asked Chu Fengyun.
“Mo Kongyuan is already en route here. He will reach the capital in a few days,” replied Feng Zitian as he got to his feet.
“Did you exchange blows with him?” Chu Fengyun asked.
“As I am a useless disciple, I was not able to agitate him into taking action. However, I did manage to exchange moves with Ling Chuxi, and she also knows the Great Fists Skill,” Feng Zitian replied.
“So, how did it turn out in the end?”
“That set of martial arts techniques is indeed able to resolve the Great Fists Skill.”
“Resolve? Kekeke, you have thought it too simply. How can the Nan Xia Guardian’s Great Fists Skill which has been passed down for thousands of years be resolved so easily? You underestimate them too much,” Chu Fengyun sneered.
“Then, what do you mean, master?” asked Feng Zitian as he looked at Chu Fengyun in doubt. If Chu Fengyun knew that such a technique was impossible to resolve, then why was there a need to send him to challenge Mo Kongyuan? It had even resulted in him having to soak in ice water for an entire night till his organs and visceral were almost frozen. Thinking about this, Feng Zitian’s hatred towards Ling Chuxi made him gnash his teeth. His heart had already secretly sworn to seek out this little despicable person for revenge sooner or later.
“Forget it. Even if I spoke about it, you wouldn’t understand. Why don’t you head back first,” said Chu Fengyun with a waved of his hand.
“That’s right, Master, there is another matter. Ling Chuxi has also tagged along this time.” Feng Zitian had retreated to the door when he thought about it and added on this bit of information. Feng Zitian was also very clear about the matter between Ling Chuxi and Wu Feng Hall in the past.
“So, she is also here. Just great, then. This time we will get rid of all the troubles for good,” said Chu Fengyun as a fierce look flashed across Chu Fengyun’s eyes.
