One breath, two breaths, and on the third breath.
The entire arena erupted into a fierce battle.
Without any unnecessary words or preamble, all the actions were taken without warning.
Every move they make is a killing blow, leaving no room for retreat.
The Yin Kui faction and Cihang Jingzhai were locked in a fierce battle.
Zhuge Zhengwo, along with Tie Shou and others, went to meet An Yun Mountain.
While martial arts masters were fighting, the army in the arena was naturally not idle either.
The iron cavalry of the two great dynasties of Sui and Song rushed straight towards the Great Yuan.
The two great dynasties of Qin and Ming were frantically clearing out the area.
As long as you are not a royal power, not a top-tier martial arts force, or do not have a master from a major ranking group in charge.
Without exception, everyone was cleared out.
However, the battle between the Ming Dynasty Jianghu and the Qin Dynasty Jianghu was the most exciting in the competition.
Li Mochou, Ouyang Feng, Kongtong, Huashan, Kunlun, Emei.
These masters and sects are all hunting down Zhang Wuji.
Chapter 441 The Long-Disappeared Murong Fu, Wang Yuyan's Thoughts
Even with the help of Yan Shisan and Ximen Chuixue, facing so many experts, they were still helpless.
Zhang Wuji was still being beaten and running around everywhere because there were just too many people on the other side.
Yan Shisan and Ximen Chuixue couldn't kill them all at once.
In addition, Wudang also tacitly joined forces with Mingjiao and Tianyingjiao.
The three parties joined forces to besiege Shaolin.
Among them, Zhang Sanfeng fought the hardest, and Du'e and the other two were almost completely overwhelmed.
There's nothing we can do; the two factions are natural enemies.
Previously, Shaolin was the only sacred place in the martial arts world, but after Zhang Sanfeng appeared, another sacred place was added.
Shaolin Temple held a grudge about this, which is why they made things difficult for Zhang Sanfeng when he brought Zhang Wuji to seek medical help.
However, it must be said that the Buddhist community's strength is indeed extraordinary.
Even when faced with Zhang Sanfeng's powerful attacks, Shaolin Temple remained undefeated.
The "407" method is used because there are too many "Shaolin Temples".
Shaolin Temple of Mount Song, Shaolin Temple of Fujian—in short, all the powerful bald men have come.
This also includes the Buddhist forces of the Song Dynasty, although Li Chengqian ordered the Shaolin Temple of the Song Dynasty to close its gates and not come out.
But that only applies to the Shaolin Temple on Mount Wutai during the Song Dynasty; other Buddhist forces were not affected.
Moreover, the influence of Buddhism is not limited to the Shaolin Temple alone; there are all sorts of temples and monasteries.
Logically speaking, they are all part of the Buddhist community.
What's even more noteworthy is that these temples all have "Eighteen Bronze Men," only differing in their strength.
Besides the iconic "Eighteen Bronze Men" of Buddhism, every temple has an abbot.
Roughly speaking, there were more than 4,000 bald men participating in the second event, but they represented different factions.
This cleverly avoids Li Chengqian's rules.
Everyone who fought Zhang Sanfeng was a figure of the highest rank, like a host.
In just a quarter of an hour, Zhang Sanfeng had knocked away seven or eight abbots, including many grandmaster-level experts.
But it was no use. There were still more than thirty abbots and more than fifty old monks with snow-white eyebrows and beards waiting for Zhang Sanfeng to fight them.
After defeating these people, the Buddhist sect still had over ninety bronze statues ready to be deployed.
Seeing Zhang Sanfeng surrounded by a sea of bald heads.
Countless martial arts practitioners felt ashamed of themselves.
They marveled at both the power of Shaolin Temple and the power of Zhang Sanfeng.
It's an open secret that Wudang and Shaolin don't get along.
But I never expected that the pressure from Wudang would be so great.
At this moment, someone among the onlookers asked in confusion, "What's going on with the Qin Dynasty?"
"How did they start fighting amongst themselves?"
"It seems that's true, but as far as I know, the one called Xinghun is the real power of the Great Qin Dynasty."
"Why did the other two groups start fighting?"
Faced with this question, everyone turned their attention to Li Chengqian.
After all, only Mr. Li can explain this matter clearly.
Faced with the puzzled looks from the crowd, Li Chengqian smiled slightly and said, "It makes sense."
"Do you see those two sword masters?"
"One is Gai Nie, the former sword saint of Qin, and the other is Wei Zhuang, the leader of the Qin assassin organization."
"These two are disciples of Guiguzi."
"The Guigu School only accepts two disciples per generation, and teaches them the Vertical and Horizontal Sword Techniques respectively."
"After the two disciples were born, they were destined to fight each other. Only the one who survived could inherit the Ghost Valley School."
Upon hearing Li Chengqian's explanation, everyone nodded in understanding.
"Who is that burly man who besieged Gai Nie with Wei Zhuang?"
"I noticed he stopped Wei Zhuang from attacking Gai Nie several times. What's going on?"
"This man is named Sheng Qi, a death row inmate of the Great Qin Dynasty, and also a death row inmate of one of the seven kingdoms before the Great Qin Dynasty unified China."
"I was defeated by Gai Nie's sword back then, so I have always wanted to defeat Gai Nie."
“He was not a member of the Qin delegation; he came here on his own, following Gai Nie’s trail.”
Everyone was watching the battle in the arena, and whenever they encountered an unfamiliar expert, they would ask Li Chengqian for advice.
When faced with these questions, Li Chengqian would give a brief explanation.
However, a wandering swordsman spotted a familiar yet unfamiliar figure amidst the chaos of battle.
"Isn't this Murong Fu from Gusu?"
"How did he end up in the Sui Dynasty?"
Upon hearing this, the surroundings instantly fell silent, and even Jiang Yuyan, who was massaging Li Chengqian's shoulders, paused her movements slightly.
Everyone in the martial arts world knows who lives in the bamboo grove courtyard.
At the same time, the backgrounds of these people were thoroughly investigated by the public.
The fact that Wang Yuyan and Murong Fu were childhood sweethearts is no exception.
But among so many people, not a single one dared to mention it.
The reason is simple: after Wang Yuyan moved into the bamboo grove courtyard, Murong Fu mysteriously disappeared.
Many people in the martial arts world are speculating that Mr. Li used underhanded means to kill Murong Fu.
However, everyone only thought about this in their hearts, since not everyone had the courage to gossip about Mr. Li.
"Snapped!"
The martial arts practitioner who uttered these words was slapped hard by his companion, who shouted angrily, "What nonsense are you spouting?"
"If you can't see clearly, go home and rest. Don't embarrass yourself here."
After reprimanding his companion, the man immediately bowed to Li Chengqian and said, "Mr. Li, my friend has poor eyesight, please forgive him."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled and shook his head.
"Hehehe!"
"Don't be so nervous, things aren't as complicated as you think."
"Your friend is not mistaken. That person is Murong Fu from Gusu in the Song Dynasty. He has now submitted to the Yuwen clan of the Sui Dynasty."
After saying that, Li Chengqian turned to look at Wang Yuyan, who was deep in thought.
"You should have known this already, right?"
Wang Yuyan nodded, which was taken as tacit agreement.
"Sometimes, running away will never solve the problem; you need to face it head-on."
"Of course, if you don't want to face it, I can solve this problem for you."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan shook her head and said softly, "Mr. Li, besides this, is there anything else that is certain to happen?"
Hearing this, Li Chengqian was slightly surprised, but quickly responded.
"Yu Yan told you?"
“I asked Sister Yuyan to tell me, Mr. Li, please don’t blame her, okay?”
Glancing at the guilty Jiang Yuyan, Li Chengqian said indifferently, "It's better to know sooner rather than later, you have a soft heart."
"If you were to face this suddenly, you probably wouldn't be able to accept it for a while."
"Whatever choice you make, I won't blame you."
"Alright, you should go back and rest now."
"It's really difficult for you to think about these things."
Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan nodded obediently and then turned and went back to the inn.
After Wang Yuyan left, an eerie silence fell over the area, because no one could fathom Li Chengqian's current mood.
