He spoke so simply and casually, yet it could convince one so easily.
Zeng Hong’s expression stiffened, and he said coldly, “And who are you? I don’t think Messy Stone Forest has someone like you, right?”
“I am the Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain.”
“The Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain?” Zeng Hong muttered these words to himself one more time.
Soon enough, there was a bright gleam in his eyes.
“It’s you!”
It was clear that Zeng Hong had thought of who this supposed Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain was supposed to be.
“I heard that there’s a patch of forest between the Messy Stone Forest area and the Liangshan area called Liangshan Stronghold. The letter I received yesterday was sent out by you as well, right?”
When the conversation came to this, Zeng Hong looked coldly at Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming, “I didn’t expect Mount Mingai and Chuanyun Stronghold to be such weaklings. You two actually decided to pledge your allegiance to someone outside of this area. What a disgrace to Messy Stone Forest.”
“This is what you call doing the right thing at the right time,” Xu Yuanming stood next to Niu Feng and wasn’t the slightest bit angered by Zeng Hong’s sneering.
When he heard that, Zeng Hong snorted coldly and violently swung his saber into the ground blade first. He stood arrogantly with his hands behind his back and said, “Since you’re all here today, then you can forget about going anywhere.”
“Once I squash this Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain to death, then I’ll see what sort of expressions you two have.”
CLAP CLAP!
The sound of someone clapping resounded. Qin Shujian smiled and said, “I’m very interested to see how you’re going to squash me to death.”
“But!” When his words got here, his expression suddenly grew cold, “Don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance. If Messy Gold Mountain surrenders and pledges allegiance to Liangshan Stronghold, then there’s a chance for you to salvage this situation. Otherwise, things are going to get really messy.”
“You’re audacious!” Zeng Hong was so angry that he scoffed. He took one quick step out as he pulled his saber back out from the ground. He spun, and a fierce wind came striking down with the swing of the blade.
That swing!
He didn’t hold back any of his abilities at all.
Zeng Hong could feel how the brimming qi and blood in his body were starting to boil.
This strength was way beyond Martial Entry-Level Five and gave him an undefeatable sort of confidence in himself.
The Liangshan Stronghold Chieftain standing in front of him had managed to make Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming surrender to him. Zeng Hong couldn’t figure out what this man did to make that happen, but he didn’t feel much of a threat coming out from him.
As far as Zeng Hong could tell, this man was probably only at Martial Entry-Level Five.
Even if this blade couldn’t kill him immediately, it would cause him severe injury.
As Zeng Hong launched his attack, the Mountain Thieves of Messy Gold Mountain standing behind him rushed to the front to attack.
Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming immediately got their team of Mountain Bandits to counterattack quickly.
The thick and wide saber itself weighed nearly 50 pounds.
With all the strength of a false Level Seven fighter filling it, the blade instantly became as impactful as a blade that weighed 1,000 pounds.
With the addition of that relative lightning speed, the power of that blade became even more earth-shattering.
As the saber made its way towards him, Qin Shujian stretched his right hand out and accurately used two of his fingers to hold onto the tip of the blade as if he already knew it was coming.
Immediately, that ferocious blade seemed to have run into resistance that it couldn’t fight as its momentum suddenly died, and it was stuck like this in midair.
“What?!” Zeng Hong’s expression changed dramatically.
Those two fingers that had stopped the blade he had swung with all his might didn’t just look like two simple fingers. They seemed more like two indestructible super soldiers instead, so no matter how hard he tried, he couldn’t move a single millimeter past them at all.
In the next moment, Qin Shujian’s body suddenly moved forward by one step. His two fingers slid along the blade until they reached the center of the blade, then he violently pinched the blade very hard.
His two fingers exerted much strength.
It took just one pinch!
One twist!
PING!!!
That saber that was comparable to a ninth-grade lethal weapon instantly broke with a crisp sound.
After that, Qin Shujian’s body transformed as his feet moved along the Five Elements Eight Trigrams, and he unleashed a Seven-Flower Leaf Penetrating Palm.
This turn of events happened so suddenly that Zeng Hong didn’t have time to think about it.
That incredibly quick palm came so quickly that he couldn’t dodge it. He could only abandon the broken saber in his hands and receive that palm with his palms too.
BOOM!
The two palms struck each other, and an intense wind blew.
Zeng Hong could feel that his opponent’s palm gave off an incredible amount of strength that was impossible to defeat. It was so strong that Zeng Hong’s arm was in great pain, his boiling qi and blood was in constant turmoil, and his body couldn’t help but move backward.
After he took one step back, Qin Shujian pressed forward.
His attack was like a shadow and continued to press itself against Zeng Hong.
BAM!!!
Three palms were delivered, and Zeng Hong used all his strength to hold up against these attacks.
In the end, Zeng Hong’s entire body went flying, and he kept coughing blood after he crashed onto the ground.
His right arm hung lifelessly as if it had been broken, and his face was deathly pale.
Zeng Hong now looked at Qin Shujian with nothing but shock and horror in his eyes.
He never imagined that Qin Shujian would be this incredibly powerful.
...
Even though he was now at the false Martial Entry-Level Seven stage, he was no match for this man at all.
Zeng Hong had a strange premonition.
Perhaps this man hadn’t used all his strength yet. Otherwise, Zeng Hong might not even have the chance to struggle.
The strength in those four incredibly ferocious palms was enough to nearly cause his qi and blood to collapse from the impact.
“Surrender or die!” Qin Shujian looked down haughtily at the fallen Zeng Hong. He stood with his hands behind his back and gave off a terrifying pressure.
“Cough, cough!” Zeng Hong coughed several times and ended up coughing more mouthfuls of blood. Finally, he struggled hard and managed to stand on his feet.
He looked at all the Messy Gold Mountain Mountain Thieves who were still engaged in battle with Mount Mingai and Chuanyun Stronghold and gave an order.
“Stop!”
After receiving the command, the Messy Gold Mountain Mountain Thieves immediately stopped and moved back.
When Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming saw this, they also stopped attacking and moved their men back.
At the same time, everyone turned to look at Zeng Hong.
...
Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming looked expressionlessly at how Zeng Hong had been beaten so soundly, but they felt really good inside.
Neither of them had actually fought with Qin Shujian before.
They had both naturally decided to surrender after seeing what he could do.
You could say that Zeng Hong was the first one actually to try to retaliate and attack Qin Shujian.
But the final outcome could be seen very easily. He was nearly beaten to death.
When it came to this matter, both Niu Feng and Xu Yuanming had been annoyed with Messy Gold Mountain for a long time now.
Before this, the three of them were the most powerful ones in Messy Stone Forest, but Messy Gold Mountain was firmly one above the other two, and he would often force them to retreat and compromise.
But because they knew that Messy Gold Mountain was more powerful than them, the two of them had no choice but to suppress their anger.
Now that Qin Shujian had severely injured Zeng Hong, they felt like that suppressed anger had been let out, and so they felt really relaxed and happy now.
Of course, they felt this way in their hearts, but neither of them showed it on their faces. contemporary romance
On the other side, Zeng Hong was still indignant in the face of the pressure given by Qin Shujian, and he also had several questions in his mind, “With your ability, you’re considered one of the best in this Mortal Domain. Why would you set your sights on this tiny Messy Gold Mountain?”
Mortal Domain? Qin Shujian had heard a foreign term from the other party’s mouth.
Even though he had questions about this term, he didn’t ask them immediately.
He looked at Zeng Hong’s puzzled expression, and his face turned icy, “Of course I have my reasons for what I’m doing. Whether Messy Gold Mountain surrenders or is destroyed will rest on what you say next.”
“I’ll only give you three breaths’ time to think about it.”
Three breaths’ time passed in the blink of an eye.
Zeng Hong was deeply indignant inside, but under the pressure of someone with absolute power, he had no choice but to lower his arrogant head.
“Messy Gold Mountain is willing to surrender!”
Nobody was unafraid to die, and he was no exception.
