Chapter 121: Return to Jiuzhaigou Again

  Although Yu Lingxuan was warlike, he wasn't a person who didn't understand reason. Now that Xu Hua had a great vendetta on his body, he naturally couldn't focus on fighting him. As for this, he could only feel regret.

  "Brother Ling Xuan, are you still afraid of not finding a match? In the entire Song Dynasty, there are many people stronger than me." Xu Hua didn't understand Ling Xuan very well, so he naturally wouldn't know what was on his mind.

  "It's not that there aren't any strong people, it's just that compared to those well-known martial arts masters who have been famous for many years, I'm slightly inferior. And none of the martial arts masters would agree to fight me." Yuan Lingxuan wasn't without confidence in fighting against a martial arts master, but he had perfectly merged his laws into his sword path and was afraid that he couldn't control it, so he never used his strongest sword path.

  If it were a life-and-death battle, he even had the confidence to kill some of the strong early-stage martial arts masters. In the Tianzi Mansion, students are allowed to fight among themselves, but each of those who can enter the Tianzi Mansion has a considerable force behind them, and Ling Xuan has some concerns.

  "Only those who have experienced true slaughter can become truly strong, I think Brother Ling Xuan should be at his limit now, wanting to break through without experiencing life and death can only be slowly tempered with time." Xu Hua smiled lightly, Yan Ling Xuan was a strong man, if he could pull him over to fight against the Wu Ding clan, his chances of success would increase greatly.

  No one is a fool, and Ling Xuan naturally guessed Xu Hua's intention. However, he also agreed with Xu Hua's words that only by experiencing life and death can one break through better, but he had never had such an opportunity before. "Alright, tell me about your family feud, if possible, I'll intervene!"

  "Brother Lingxuan!" Feng Wujin suddenly shouted, he thought this was extremely unwise.

  Yuan Lingxuan waved his hand and said, "If I didn't have an invincible heart, how could I reach the peak? Wuji, your innate talent is not bad, but you don't have the strong warrior's heart, and you haven't revealed a sharp edge. You'll find it very difficult to break through the Martial Emperor realm in the future!"

  Feng Wuji was stunned for a moment, silent and speechless, carefully pondering Yuan Lingxuan's words.

  Xu Hua also agreed with Yuan Lingxuan's words, a strong person not only needs to have the ability to dominate the world, but also needs to have an invincible heart. The biggest gap between people lies in the gap between their ideological consciousness.

  "I don't know much about Wu Ding either, I need to go back and deal with some issues this time, and take the opportunity to investigate Wu Ding's strength. Brother Ling Xuan can wait here for now! When the time comes, I will come to inform Brother Ling Xuan!"

  "Whatever!" Yuan Lingxuan drank down the fine wine in his cup.

  "I'll take my leave first." Xu Hua then turned to Feng Wuji and said, "Please also inform Wu Xie brother that I have returned safely, and after resolving the Wudeng clan matter, we will drink together again."

  Xu Hua left, leaving Tianfeng Business Firm and Qingcheng. Except for a very few individuals, no one knew of his existence.

  Xu Hua had not yet opened the Tian Di Xuan Guan, so he couldn't fly. However, Qing Cheng was adjacent to Luo City, so it only took a day's time to arrive at the foot of Lao Tie Shan outside Luo City.

  Looking at the vast mountains in front of him, Xu Hua was slightly distracted. "Two years have passed, and Mount Lao Tie is still Mount Lao Tie, but I am no longer the same person."

  After finishing speaking, Xu Hua quickly stepped onto the mountain path. Now, not only in terms of strength but also in state of mind, Xu Hua was vastly different from the him two years ago.

  Two years ago, his comprehensive combat power was only in the early stages of Wu Wang, but two years later, his strength had surpassed that of most Wu Huang's late stage, and his combat power was approaching that of a strong Wu Zun. Mentally, two years ago when he first arrived here, he still had some illusions about the dreams in his heart, and there was still a thread of kindness in his heart, but now he has completely extinguished the kindness in his heart. In order to survive better in this cruel world of martial arts, one must abandon the kindness that should not be in their heart.

  At this time, there were only two forces in Laojun Mountain, one was Baiguying Village and the other was Jiuzhaigou.

  Half a year ago, Jiuzhaigou and Heifengzhai had a great war. This battle was extremely tragic, but what surprised everyone was that the battle was almost one-sided, with Heifengzhai being completely suppressed by Jiuzhaigou.

  In that battle, Luo Cheng, Luo Ou, and the Twelve Blood God Guards all took action. The ordinary members of Jiuzhaigou had almost no chance to intervene, and those Heifengzhai people were quickly slaughtered.

  The strength of Hei Feng Village's leader, Sima Feng, was indeed not bad, almost reaching the level of Wu Huang's later period. However, he faced Luo Lie. Although Luo Lie's strength was only equivalent to Wu Huang's mid-term, he had cultivated the "Killing Devil Classics". The two fought for less than a hundred rounds before Sima Feng was drained of his powers by Luo Lie and became a useless person. Later, he was even sucked dry of blood by Luo Cheng and thoroughly died. Other members of Hei Feng Village were also successively killed, with no survivors. From then on, Hei Feng Village, which had occupied one-third of the territory of Lao Tie Shan, completely perished and disappeared from the world.

  After that battle, Jiuzhaigou's prestige reached its peak. That battle, Luo Lie and the Twelve Blood God Guards all gained a lot, Luo Lie smoothly reached the mid-term of Martial Emperor, his combat power was even stronger than some late-stage Martial Emperors, and the Twelve Blood God Guards also reached the late stage of Martial King, they could trigger the Thunder Tribulation at any time.

  Luò Chéng was full of confidence, wanting to take down Bái Gǔ Zhài and unify Lào Tiě Shān. However, they did not expect that Bái Gǔ Zhài would be unexpectedly strong, and Hēi Fēng Zhài was almost completely out of their league. Especially since the leader of Bái Gǔ Zhài was a powerful Wǔ Zūn master, even the infamous Blood Demon Luò Chéng from Luò City couldn't match up to him.

  The final result was once again unexpected by everyone, the master of White Bone Village did not kill Luo Cheng and others, but instead invited Luo Cheng to enter White Bone Village for a talk.

  No one knows what they talked about, but from then on, Lao Tie Shan only had two forces: White Bone Village and Jiuzhai Gou.

  "Who are you? Where are you going?" Just as Xu Hua was crossing a small hill, he was suddenly blocked by four people.

  Xu Hua looked at the four people in front of him and found that they were all late-stage martial artists. He said, "I'm going to Jiuzhaigou, I'm looking for Hei Pao!"

  "How dare you, actually calling out the leader's name!" One of them sneered as he walked over, "Does the leader think they can just see whoever they want? Even among the nine members of our group, only two vice leaders have the qualifications to be summoned by the leader!"

  At this time, one of the three people standing beside him, who was leaning on the left side, looked at Xu Hua's face with a slight hint of doubt.

  "It seems that the Black Robe's discipline has been lax recently! As a result, the members of Jiuzhaigou are not on the same level, and they have become so arrogant." Xu Hua's face was slightly gloomy, but he understood in his heart that as an organization grows larger and more people join, it becomes harder to manage. Moreover, the Black Robe must think that he is already dead, after all, even a strong Martial Honored would likely die in such a situation.

  "Preposterous!" "Ridiculous!" "Audacious!" Three people shouted in anger, but only one person's body trembled slightly, bowing halfway and saying: "Sir, are you Xu Huaxu, the young master?"

  "Do you know me?" Xu Hua was somewhat surprised, he had been trapped for two years and did not expect that there would be someone in Jiuzhaigou who could recognize him apart from Luo Huai and a few others!

  Plop!

  That man got Xu Hua's answer, his face turned white, and he immediately knelt down, trembling in his mouth. "I have met the young master, I was lucky enough to see the young master's demeanor that year. The subordinates did not recognize Mount Tai, please forgive us."

  "Zhen Dong, what are you doing? Who is he?" The three men looked at Zhen Dong's behavior and knew they were in trouble, so they suppressed their trembling and asked.

  "Hurry up and apologize to the young master. Even if it's the leader of the village who meets the young master, they would only be on equal terms. The leader has said before that meeting the young master is like meeting him! As soon as Zhen Dong spoke, the three men immediately knelt down, with sweat dripping from their foreheads to the ground, their faces pale and trembling, saying: "Young master... spare our lives..."

  "Never mind, I have something important to attend to. Take me to see Hei Pao!" It had been two years since they last met, and Xu Hua was eager to meet with Luo Yu and Luo Cheng again, so he didn't want to dwell on these trivial matters any longer.

  After receiving Xu Hua's reply, the four of them finally stood up trembling and took Xu Hua to Jiuzhaigou to avoid such things from happening again. Nowadays, there are many members in Jiuzhaigou, and there are also many guards everywhere. If it weren't for the presence of the four, Xu Hua wouldn't know how much trouble he would have encountered along the way.

  Finally arrived at the headquarters of Jiuzhaigou, where the original Jiuzhaigou was located.

  "We've seen the young master!" He Tao and Lu Zhen were overjoyed upon hearing the news that Xu Hua had arrived, and they rushed out to welcome the young master, unaware of the news that Xu Hua was already dead.

  "Ssh! Ssh!"

  Many members of Jiuzhaigou looked at the two deputy owners kneeling down to a young man and couldn't help but gasp in shock, feeling unbelievable.

  "Who is he after all? Even the deputy chief of the village has knelt down!"

  Looking at He Tao and Lu Zhen, a faint smile appeared on Xu Hua's face. These were familiar people, after two years of not seeing each other, there was a different kind of emotion. "Get up, you are both deputy camp leaders now, the dignity that should be had is still needed, no need to do so in the future!"

  "We are just under the young master, it is our honor to serve the young master!" The two of them are now also top-notch masters in the late period of the Martial King. In the entire Jiuzhaigou, as long as those people from the forbidden land do not come out, they are the strongest. However, they know that all this was given by the young master, without the young master they would be nothing, so in front of the young master they always maintain respect and humility.

  "Is Hei Pao around?" Xu Hua didn't say much more, but he was still quite satisfied with these two.

  The two stood up and said, "The village master and Lord Blood Demon have already gone to Luocheng. Recently, the struggle between the Wuding clan and several other major forces has become increasingly fierce. Neither of them had time to stay in Jiuzhaigou."

  "Oh, it seems I should make a trip to Luocheng after all!" Xu Hua murmured.

  "Gentleman, within the forbidden land there are still some people, they are very strong, perhaps you will want to see them."
