Chapter 670: Jin Banhua: I Really Do Know Many Martial Arts
Shi Guanyan looked at Qiu Lingsu, her eyes narrowing, a chill emanating from them.
She detested Qiu Lingsu's face and disliked the expression it now wore even more.
"Are you saying I let Song Changgeng and Ge Donglai escape?" Shi Guanyan chuckled, "I know your Beggar Sect sent many people, but they couldn't find me. So what's the use?"
Shi Guanyan continued with a leisurely smile, "Do you know, I no longer wish to stay in that maze. I'm about to taste the charms of the Queen of Kucha. How could those Beggar Sect disciples think of the noble and elegant Queen of Kucha, who would harm Ren Ci, the one who killed Shi Guanyan?"
Shi Guanyan's face darkened, her cold gaze fixed on Qiu Lingsu, "But before that, I naturally will..."
Just as she was about to finish her sentence, she noticed someone had appeared between her and Qiu Lingsu.
"It's me! It's me!" Jin Banhua pointed at herself, "Qiu Lady said the major mistake you made was me!"
Jin Banhua waved the ornate sword inlaid with precious gems in her hand, "With a top-tier expert like me who wields unparalleled sword techniques, you actually exposed your identity. Isn't that a major mistake?"
A Point of Red shouted, "Jin Banhua, come back quickly, this isn't the time for jokes!"
Hu Tieshua took a side step and arrived beside Jin Banhua, "Kid, Shi Guanyan isn't like those martial artists in the capital; she won't show you any mercy!"
Qu Wu Rong looked at Jin Banhua and asked Ji Bingyan, "Is he always this arrogant and himself?"
Ji Bingyan's eyes flickered with surprise and suspicion, glancing at Pi Pa Gongzhu and Qiu Lingsu.
Pi Pa Gongzhu's eyes were filled with confidence and anticipation despite her nervousness, while Qiu Lingsu had already regained her composure, her eyes carrying a gentle and indulgent smile.
"Jin Banhua, who are you really?" Ji Bingyan couldn't help but ask.
"Me?" Jin Banhua laughed, "I am the son of a wealthy family in the capital, the owner of the White Jade Beauty, the master of both Northern and Southern martial arts, the object of countless beauties' admiration, and the lifelong rival of Chu Liuxiang—Jin Banhua!"
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Shi Guanyan glared coldly at Jin Banhua, "Killing a fool like you would dirty my hands, Changsun Hong."
Shi Guanyan merely called Changsun Hong's name, and Changsun Hong understood. In the next moment, she had appeared behind Jin Banhua.
In the next instant, her palm flipped, and a sharp dagger appeared in her hand, stabbing straight at Jin Banhua's ribs.
Changsun Hong had appeared once in the original story, leading Di Red and Chu Liuxiang, along with Ji Bingyan, into the sand boat. She had even claimed to be the wife of Wu Juxuan, the disguised as a lecherous man, who had once moved in the boat cabin.
Despite the cramped space, she could still move swiftly, like a leech on a bone, clinging to Di Red's back and subduing him. Her lightness skill and dagger technique were both of the first rank, and even if there was a gap between her and Qu Wu Rong, it wasn't significant.
Thus, her sudden appearance and swift stab were like a bolt of lightning, leaving everyone unable to react.
But just as Hu Tieshua's hand was halfway raised, and Changsun Hong's dagger was only three inches from Jin Banhua's ribs, she suddenly found her wrist gripped.
Next, a warm, long hand followed her wrist, moving upward, and in the blink of an eye, it had swept past her right arm.
Changsun Hong couldn't help but cry out in pain, the dagger falling to the ground as she flew backward.
As she collided with a low table and stopped, her entire right arm hung limp, unable to move.
The entire hall fell silent in an instant.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on Jin Banhua.
Hu Tiefu's hand, halfway raised, froze in mid-air, his entire body stiff as if he had been paralyzed.
Ji Bingyan's eyes gleamed with a mix of emotions as he muttered to himself, "I knew it..."
Yidianhong looked at Jin Banhua with disbelief, "How is that possible?"
Only the Princess Pipa couldn't help but cheer, her eyes filled with admiration and adoration for Jin Banhua.
Changsun Hong's eyes betrayed her fear as she looked at Jin Banhua.
Shi Guanyin stared intently at Jin Banhua, her expression one of disbelief. She had not expected Jin Banhua's martial arts to be so formidable.
She glanced at Qiu Lingsu, who still wore a gentle, knowing smile.
"You knew all along?" Shi Guanyin asked coldly.
Qiu Lingsu smiled softly, gently touching her face, "You can never fully grasp the extent of Master Jin's abilities."
Seeing Qiu Lingsu's gesture, Shi Guanyin's pupils constricted. She turned her gaze to Jin Banhua, recalling his swift and precise movements. "What martial art was that?"
"This technique is called the Delicate Orchid Hand," Jin Banhua replied honestly. "Though it appears gentle and fleeting, its power is deceptively strong and unpredictable. The young lady's right arm is now useless."
Changsun Hong, clutching her right arm, paled visibly.
Shi Guanyin's eyes narrowed, and she suddenly asked, "Did you really have dozens of masters and learn dozens of martial arts?"
"Yes, I did!"
"Can you really perform the Shaolin Divine Fist, the Flowing Cloud Sleeve, the Whirling Wind Willow Sword, and the Thirteen Styles of the Gentle Breeze?"
"Yes, I can!"
"Then let me see!"
Shi Guanyin let out a light cry and was instantly in front of Jin Banhua. She struck at his right arm with one palm and aimed for his left shoulder with the other.
Her movements were not only faster than Changsun Hong's earlier attempt but also surpassed her earlier battle with Ji Bingyan and the others.
Before Jin Banhua could react, her hands had already changed positions, targeting his neck and dantian. Her hands moved so swiftly that they left afterimages, as if she had suddenly grown five more hands, launching seven attacks in an instant.
Ji Bingyan, Hu Tiefu, and Yidianhong's expressions changed dramatically, realizing that Shi Guanyin had not used her full strength against them earlier.
But Jin Banhua showed no panic. He simply waved his hand, and his wide sleeve swept through the air.
With just a gentle flick, the seemingly light breeze from his sleeve enveloped all seven of Shi Guanyin's attacks, then deftly redirected them.
In the next moment, a fist emerged from the sleeve.
The gentle breeze that had seemed insubstantial suddenly turned into a powerful gale. A iron-hard fist tore through Shi Guanyin's intricate seven attacks, breaking through her defenses and aiming directly for her chest.
The punch was fierce and unyielding, raw and direct, yet utterly unstoppable!
Shi Guanyin's face changed drastically, and she quickly retreated, her palms stacked in front of her chest.
"Bang!"
Shi Guanyin was pushed back seven feet, her sleeves still fluttering as if caught in a strong wind, and her eyes squinted from the impact.
But before she could catch her breath, a glint of cold steel caught her eye. A long sword, moving slowly yet deceptively fast, like a willow branch swaying in the wind, unpredictable and elusive, stabbed from the side.
"The Whirling Wind Willow Sword!"
