Chapter 619: Chu Liuxiang's Undefeated Realm
Chapter 619: Chu Liuxiang's Undefeated Realm
Shen Shangu flirted with Chu Liuxiang, and Chu Liuxiang knocked her out.
Leng Qiuhun was both angry and afraid.
His anger stemmed from the fact that the Star Gang had hired Yidianhong for ten thousand taels of silver. They offered an additional thousand taels to kill a disciple of the Zhu Sha Gate, yet they only valued him at five thousand taels.
Damn it, I just won sixty thousand taels in one game tonight!
Five thousand taels, who do you think you are?!
But Leng Qiuhun was also afraid because Zhongyuan Yidianhong, the notorious cold-blooded assassin, had never failed a mission before. He always kept his word and would never be turned against by his target.
Leng Qiuhun clenched the hilt of his knife, his knuckles turning white. He suddenly slammed his hand on the table and said, "Fine! Come on! Even if Chu Liuxiang, the Bandit Chief, shows up, I may not necessarily be afraid of him. Why should I fear Zhongyuan Yidianhong?"
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but smile, "Is Chu Liuxiang more frightening than Yidianhong?"
Leng Qiuhun finally spoke his mind, "Is there anyone more fearsome than Chu Liuxiang under the heavens?"
Chu Liuxiang murmured, "As far as I know, Chu Liuxiang isn't scary at all. He's actually a very kind person, and there are probably very few people in this world who are kinder than him."
Jin Banfflower interjected, "Brother Zhang is right. Chu Liuxiang isn't scary at all. There are many people more fearsome than him in this world, but I suppose there aren't many who are more despicable."
The smile that had just bloomed on Chu Liuxiang's face vanished, "Is it because he took Brother Jin's White Jade Beauty?"
"At least no one else has tried to take my White Jade Beauty." Jin Banfflower coldly huffed, "I've set my sights on him, and he makes me uncomfortable. I won't let him off easily!"
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but rub his nose, feeling a bit embarrassed and amused.
Just then, a creaking sound came from the roof tiles of the Kuaiyitang hall in the distance.
Leng Qiuhun's reflex kicked in, and he shouted, "Friends, since you've come to Kuaiyitang, please show yourselves!"
Chu Liuxiang's eyes flickered, and he opened the door to the inner hall, "If you want to fight, go find him. If you're here to gamble, I'll be glad to accompany you."
The members of the Star Gang arrived, led by Song Gang, the second disciple of Zuo Youzheng, the Big Dipper of Heaven.
They came with fierce momentum, but as soon as they entered the inner hall, they saw Leng Qiuhun drawing his long knife and holding it to Shen Shangu's neck.
The previously gloomy and cruel Song, the second head of the household, who resembled a gray wolf, instantly transformed into a panicked little sheep. He not only admitted that the matter was a misunderstanding but also promised never to set foot in Jinan again.
At the same time, Zhongyuan Yidianhong also appeared. He gave Leng Qiuhun a warning, clashed with Song Gang, refused to kill Chu Liuxiang, who was disguised as Zhang Xiaolin, and then left after leaving some silver.
Song Gang and the Star Gang members were stunned. They couldn't understand why Zhongyuan Yidianhong, who always had a high level of professionalism, suddenly changed.
Only Jin Banfflower knew the reason. It was because when Chu Liuxiang went to provoke the Star Gang to fight with the Zhu Sha Gate earlier, he had already crossed paths with Zhongyuan Yidianhong and dodged his one hundred and forty-four swords. At the same time, Yidianhong had also recognized Chu Liuxiang's identity.
Yidianhong couldn't kill him then, so he naturally wouldn't embarrass himself again.
Thus, the Star Gang found themselves in a weak position once more.
Chu Liuxiang proposed to let Shen Shangu leave, "As long as Brother Song shows me the letter that Left Helper gave you, I will immediately send your sister away."
Then, even though the letter had already been torn up, Song Gang, who was just about to reveal its contents, died.
Leng Qiuhun was dispirited, Chu Liuxiang had disappeared, and Jin Banfflower stood up, "This matter has not only attracted the attention of Zhongyuan Yidianhong, but there is also a murderer silencing witnesses. It's getting more and more interesting!"
"Young Master..."
"You guys go back to the inn first. I'll go with Brother Zhang to check out the excitement!"
As Jin Banfflower's voice trailed off, he had already reached the wall and disappeared in a flash.
When Liao Gang and Ye Jin flipped over the wall to chase after Jin Banfflower, he was already out of sight.
The two men looked at each other.
"Is the young master's light work so good?"
"I don't know?"
"Qiao Lao Si's light work isn't that good, is it?
"It's rare to see Young Master take action in the capital. So, it turns out Young Master is a martial arts prodigy?"
...
On the other hand, by the time Jin Banfflower arrived at Daming Lake, Chu Liuxiang had already crossed paths with Zhongyuan Yidianhong.
Well, the plot where Zhongyuan Yidianhong forced Chu Liuxiang to take action, but he resolutely refused to fight, had already occurred. So now, it wasn't about Yidianhong trying to kill Chu Liuxiang and him resisting, but rather Yidianhong attempting suicide while Chu Liuxiang tried to save him.
If he couldn't kill Chu Liuxiang, then he'd kill himself. One had to say, Zhongyuan Yidianhong was indeed a maddening person! Too bad his martial arts were lacking.
Yidianhong turned his sword back, intending to bring the blade to his neck, while Chu Liuxiang seized the initiative, aiming to disarm Yidianhong of his longsword.
Although Chu Liuxiang couldn't wrest away Yidianhong's longsword in a short time, the fact that he could force Yidianhong to the point where he couldn't even commit suicide spoke volumes about Chu Liuxiang's agile movements and ingenious martial arts.
Jin Banfflower stopped by Daming Lake, watching the two fight.
"He's eyeing your wrist, and his movements are faster than yours. You can't beat him."
Jin reminded, "Turn your back first. Then, turn around and slash your neck. He's on the outside, so you circle around a few more times, and you'll surely get past him!"
Chu Liuxiang, "..."
Yidianhong, "..."
Yidianhong suddenly stopped, his eyes cold as he looked at Jin Banfflower, "Who are you?"
"Who am I?" Jin Banfflower took a step forward. "I am the young master of a wealthy aristocratic family in the capital, the owner of the precious White Jade Beauty, and the lifelong enemy of Chu Liuxiang—Jin Banfflower!"
Chu Liuxiang's mouth twitched, and Yidianhong's eyes widened as he glanced at Chu Liuxiang.
Chu Liuxiang said awkwardly, "I heard that Chu Liuxiang entered the capital a few days ago and obtained some treasures. He sold them to raise money to relieve the destitute elderly and children."
Yidianhong said coldly, "This is a virtuous act. Chu Liuxiang used your money to help the poor, which is helping you accumulate virtue so you don't end up in the oil pot after death for your lack of kindness despite your wealth."
"Oh? You're quite the talker!" Jin Banfflower waved at Chu Liuxiang. "Brother Zhang, come over. Don't stop him, let him commit suicide quickly."
Chu Liuxiang couldn't help but smile bitterly.
But Yidianhong said coldly, "I don't want to commit suicide anymore. I just want to kill you."
"Why?"
"Do you know who I am?"
"You are Zhongyuan Yidianhong."
"Correct. When has Zhongyuan Yidianhong ever needed a reason to kill?"
Yidianhong's figure burst forward, but Chu Liuxiang flew to intercept him, "Brother Hong, wait. Brother Jin isn't a bad person either!"
Yidianhong glared at Chu Liuxiang, his anger surging, "You won't let me commit suicide, nor will you let me kill. Who do you think you are? Do you think you can decide my fate?"
The next moment, a 'ding' sounded, and a burst of music rang out from the lake. Although it initially sounded vast and majestic, it carried a hidden trace of desolate resentment and murderous aura.
Chu Liuxiang had a broad mind, so he didn't feel much upon hearing it.
However, Zhongyuan Yidianhong had a tragic past, a radical and depressed temperament, and was already in a state of anger due to Chu Liuxiang's provocation. At this time, stimulated by the music, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he stabbed at Chu Liuxiang with his backhand, his sword speed three points faster than before.
Jin Banfflower clicked his tongue, "An assassin with the Berserker bloodline is indeed extraordinary."
Although Yidianhong's sword speed had only increased by three points, his combat strength had almost doubled. Even Chu Liuxiang couldn't restrain Yidianhong in a short time.
To prevent Yidianhong from getting agitated and hurting himself, Chu Liuxiang shouted, "Would you dare to follow me into the water?"
Chu Liuxiang jumped into Daming Lake, and Yidianhong followed. In the blink of an eye, he was subdued by Chu Liuxiang, knocked out, and then thrown back onto the shore.
But Chu Liuxiang didn't go ashore. Instead, he disappeared from the lake's surface.
Jin Banfflower looked at the ripples left by Chu Liuxiang's swift departure, also a little startled.
Chu Liuxiang couldn't withstand ten moves from Water Mother Yin Ji on land, but in the water, he could fight her to a draw and eventually win by exploiting the opportunity to breathe. This showed just how formidable Chu Liuxiang was underwater.
"I understand now. No wonder he lives on a sailboat. If there's an enemy he can't beat, he can directly activate his invincible realm!"
