Chapter 156 Unexpected News

  "Huh, it's not one person, but two people. The one in the back seems to be chasing the one in the front. Their auras are the same."

  Ling'er paused for a moment before continuing to speak.

  "Is there anyone among you who is a disciple of our sect?" Zhang Shan asked.

  "The distance is still far, and I can only sense their fighting spirit. If the distance were a bit closer, I could judge from their techniques." Ling'er replied.

  "Then you pay attention to their movements and see if there's anything suspicious about them."

  Zhang Shan hesitated for a moment and decided to stay put, he had the Soul Skill Suppression and the Five Elements Indestructible Body, confident that even if he couldn't win, he could still escape, and was not afraid.

  And this game ultimately still has to rely on life-and-death struggle, taking away the points from other contestants' medals. As the saying goes, "when heroes meet on a narrow road, the brave win", but if you see someone and avoid them, it will weaken your fighting spirit.

  Cut another large piece of snake meat, cut it into small pieces and string them on a branch for continued roasting.

  Soon, Ling'er spoke up: "Their techniques are not from the Wēn Tiān Sect. The person in front uses a soft and gentle style to overcome strength, while the person behind is using a strong and fierce technique with large openings and closings."

  Zhang Shan pondered over the materials that Long Xin had given him and thought about which of the True Martial Eight Styles' disciples had similar styles.

  "The person in front seems to be heading straight this way. At his speed, he'll arrive here in five minutes." Ling'er kept reporting the situation of the opponent.

  Zhang Shan's face was calm, but he had also made preparations for a change of circumstances.

  After a moment, a handsome young man with a slightly pale face, wearing white clothes and holding a long sword in his hand, walked out of the forest and stepped onto the grassland in the woods.

  He stood still at the edge of the lawn, looking vigilantly towards Zhang Shan, and from his movements, it seemed as if he was ready to dive back into the forest and continue escaping at any moment.

  However, after seeing Zhang Shan's attire, this person's eyes lit up and his body floated in another direction on the grass.

  Then, smiling, he cupped his hands in greeting towards Zhang Shan and said: "This Taoist friend should be a senior disciple of the Xuantian Sect, right? I am Li Ruofeng from Yuehua Pond, at your service. May I ask for your esteemed surname and given name?"

  Zhang Shan saw that where he stood and the direction in which he and his companion had emerged from the forest formed an equilateral triangle.

  "If the pursuers come out from that direction and reach the grassland at a distance of three people, it is the safest distance. This is a more cautious person."

  Zhang Shan thought for a moment, and then his heart moved again. He remembered that Wu Xueyue had joined the Moon Flower Pool for a long time, but there was no news coming over. Maybe he could ask this person about it.

  He smiled and said: "So it's a fellow Taoist from Moon Flower Pool, nice to meet you. I'm Zhang Shan of the Tianzong Sect."

  "It's actually Brother Zhang. My Moon Flower Pool and the Ask Heaven Sect are allies, advancing and retreating together in many things. It's also fate that I met Brother Zhang today." Li Ruofeng said with a warm smile.

  Zhang Shan knew he was right, and asked Tianzong indeed had an offensive and defensive alliance with Yuehuachi, agreeing to support each other when facing external enemies.

  When various factions discuss martial arts, this alliance is not necessarily observed. However, unless absolutely necessary, disciples of the two factions generally tacitly agree not to attack each other.

  However, Li Ruofeng is now being hunted down, and bringing this up again would obviously have a different meaning.

  Zhang Shan's heart was clear and he naturally understood the meaning behind his words, so his impression of this person greatly decreased.

  Just as they were talking, another person rushed out from where Li Ruofeng had come from earlier.

  The man was dressed in black, looked like he was sixteen or seventeen years old, with thick eyebrows and big eyes, his face was firm and dignified, and his spirit was impressive.

  He held a silver-white long gun in his hand, stopped at the edge of the lawn, and sharply measured Zhang Shan with his eyes, then his gaze fell on Li Ruofeng's body again, accumulating momentum for the attack.

  Li Ruofeng's eyes rolled around and he smiled at Zhang Shan, saying: "Brother Zhang's barbecue skills must be exceptional, this aroma is so enticing that it makes one's fingers move with desire."

  Zhang Shan winked and smiled: "Brother Li, if you're interested, why don't you come over and have a couple of skewers?"

  "I was just thinking of that, so I'll trouble Brother Zhang with it."

  Li Ruofeng smiled slightly and walked over to the fire pit.

  Zhang Shan turned his head again and smiled at the black-clothed youth: "How about you, brother? Why don't you join us too?"

  Li Ruofeng didn't expect him to invite that person too, his eyebrows furrowed and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes.

  However, Zhang Shan seemed to ignore it and shook the meat skewer in his hand, continuing: "Everyone met on the road, it's also a fate, if you want to continue fighting, eating first and then fighting is also the same."

  Li Ruofeng's eyes faintly revealed a hint of cold smile, thinking to himself: "The surname Wei is eccentric, always keeping people at arm's length, and now you're warmly embracing someone who has turned their back on you."

  It was beyond his expectation that the black-clad youth fell silent for a moment, nodded and walked over to sit down beside the fire.

  Then he reached out and took a skewer of meat and started eating it.

  "He's actually an interesting person."

  Zhang Shan thought to himself, then beckoned Li Ruofeng, who looked uncertain, to sit down.

  Li Ruofeng hummed and his mouth twitched, but he finally sat down, his face as gloomy as water, as if someone owed him 100,000 spirit stones.

  Zhang Shan handed a roasted meat skewer to Li Ruofeng and asked with a smile:

  "Both of you are candidates for the True Martial Realm's eighth rank, do you need to fight as soon as the match begins? Shouldn't it be wiser to look for those with lower cultivation levels to make a move first? Like someone like me."

  Li Ruofeng indignantly said: "Who knows that this guy surnamed Wei has gone mad, and as soon as he sees me, he pounces on me like a mad dog. I have no grudges with him recently, nor any grievances in the past, and we even have a bit of a relationship."

  "You're a worthless piece of trash and you deserve to die! How dare you think about desecrating the Snow Moon Holy Maiden, I, Wei Kong, will definitely kill you!"

  "What? What the hell does this mean?"

  Li Ruofeng's face suddenly changed, and he pointed at him in anger, shouting: "I desecrate Snow Moon Shizhi? She is the Holy Maiden of my Moonlight Pool, I Li Ruofeng respect her but it's not enough, how can I do such a thing."

  "Li Ruofeng, stop making excuses. You haven't done it yet only because you haven't found the opportunity. What do you want to do with Fang Gongzi? Do you think heaven and earth don't know? It just so happens that I found out." Wei Kong said coldly, staring at him.

  Li Ruofeng's face changed greatly after hearing his words, and his eyes were filled with a look of shocked uncertainty.

  Zhang Shan, who was listening on the side, felt more and more that something was off. The Snow Moon Holy Maiden? Could it be Wu Xuemei? Did this Li person have ill intentions towards her?

  And what's the relationship between Weikong and Wu Xueyue? He is not a disciple of Moonlight Pool, and how would he know about Li Ruofeng's affairs?

  At this moment, Zhang Shan's mind was filled with all sorts of thoughts, and he suddenly spoke out: "I'd like to ask, the Snow Moon Holy Girl you mentioned, isn't she named Wu Xueyue?"

  Li Ruofeng came back to his senses, forced a smile and said: "So Brother Zhang has also heard the name of my Snow Moon Holy Maiden? Indeed, she is called Wu Xuemei, and was formally appointed as the Holy Maiden by my sect just a month ago."
