Chapter 19: Yu Canghai in Despair
Chapter 19: Yu Canghai in Despair
Seeing Yu Canghai arrive, the Qingcheng disciples finally breathed a sigh of relief; Li Ping's ruthlessness had truly frightened them.
Yu Renhao immediately said, "Master, this guy is Li Ping, the Executioner. He has mastered the essence of the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique."
"And he also possesses the Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill!"
In his mind, Yu Canghai was undoubtedly invincible, but Li Ping knew the "Indestructible Vajra Divine Skill," which was extraordinary. If his master didn't know this, he would surely suffer a hidden loss!
Yu Canghai looked at Yu Renhao speechlessly. Before coming to Fuzhou, he had naturally inquired about the local powerful families in Fuzhou.
He was naturally aware that Li Ping, the "Decapitation Blade," had recently gained fame.
This person comes from the Fuwei Escort Agency, so it's not impossible that he might have obtained the true essence of the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
But you said he possesses the indestructible Vajra Divine Skill?
This Shaolin martial art is famous throughout the world. It is said that during the late Yuan and early Ming dynasties, a Shaolin monk named Kongjian mastered this skill.
However, after more than 200 years, no one has been able to master it.
How could this greenhorn possibly succeed?
At this moment, Lin Zhennan suppressed his unease and fear and said, "Master Yu, my Fuwei Escort Agency has always treated the Qingcheng Sect with utmost respect. Why is that?"
Yu Canghai said calmly, "It was precisely because you were so respectful that I personally led people to return the favor, but you actually killed my son!?"
"How can the hatred of killing one's son go unpunished?"
Yu Canghai considered himself a member of a reputable and righteous family. Since his son had been murdered, his attack on the Fuwei Escort Agency was justified, and he was determined to seize this pretext.
Lin Zhennan isn't stupid; how could he not know that these words are just excuses?
He said, "Master Yu, may I ask how we can get rid of the Fuwei Escort Agency?"
This statement already shows a sign of weakness; saying such a thing has completely disgraced the three generations of the Fuwei Escort Agency.
But Lin Zhennan was really frightened today.
Yu Canghai said in a sinister tone, "A life for a life, that's only right and proper. The Fuwei Escort Agency killed my son, so they should be wiped out of the martial arts world..."
Lin Zhennan was struck dumb. The Qingcheng Sect was actually after his entire Lin family. But why was that?
He didn't understand at all!
By this time, Li Ping had sorted out his affairs. He didn't know if his guess about the "power of time" was correct, but becoming stronger was always a good thing!
Yu Canghai's nonsense annoyed him, and he said to Lin Zhennan, "Don't listen to his rubbish."
"Back then, Yu Canghai's master lost a sword fight to your grandfather Lin Yuantu, and the entire Qingcheng Sect has always held a grudge about it."
"And Yu Canghai also discovered that your Evil-Slaying Sword Technique is far inferior to your grandfather's, believing that you have not mastered the essence of the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique..."
"A common man is innocent, but possessing a treasure is a crime. A child carrying gold in a bustling market is bound to invite disaster."
"He came here this time for two reasons: to avenge his master and to wipe away the shame of the Qingcheng Sect."
"Secondly, it's for the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique."
"He thinks you haven't mastered the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, that you're just bad at it. If he got his hands on the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique, he'd definitely be able to learn it!"
"As for the Huashan Sect and the Songshan Sect, well, since Yu Canghai is leading the charge, they're naturally happy to see it happen, and they can also fish in troubled waters..."
"After all, Gentleman Sword and Alliance Leader Zuo still have some face to save."
With just a few simple words, Li Ping clearly explained everything that had been in turmoil.
Yu Renhao roared, "You're talking nonsense..."
Yu Canghai raised his hand to stop Yu Renhao's cursing, then looked at Li Ping and said calmly, "The truth will be judged by the people of the martial world."
"You are Li Ping, the Executioner, so are you prepared to take on this grudge for the Fuwei Escort Agency?"
Li Ping chuckled: "Public opinion in the martial arts world? That's true, after all, fairness and justice in the martial arts world are all in the mouths of you prestigious sects..."
In the original history, Yu Canghai wiped out the entire Fuwei Escort Agency, yet those prestigious sects still treated him like a brother, not uttering a single word.
Even after the Songshan Sect wiped out Liu Zhengfeng's entire family, weren't they still the leaders of the righteous path?
Li Ping looked at Yu Canghai and said, "Yes, I'll take on this grudge, how about it?"
Yu Canghai drifted down from the rooftop, leaving not a speck of dust.
He drew his sword, and though short in stature, he possessed the air of a grandmaster: "Very well, then let me witness the true essence of the Evil-Slaying Sword Technique..."
Before he could finish speaking, Yu Canghai's pupils suddenly contracted.
Because Li Ping had already reached him, his longsword trembled and enveloped three vital acupoints on his chest.
too fast!
Not only was it fast, but the unpredictability of its swordsmanship also exceeded Yu Canghai's expectations.
His master's dying words flashed through his mind.
"The Evil-Repelling Sword Technique is not only incredibly fast, but its moves are also unpredictable and illogical..."
"When facing an enemy, if you can't think of a way to counter him, you can only fight him with your cultivation and risk your life to have a chance of survival."
Yu Canghai roared, making the eardrums of the group of bodyguards ache. He completely ignored Li Ping's longsword, which flew straight at Li Ping's throat like thunder.
They fight with a life-or-death mentality from the very first move!
Nourishes...
Li Ping slashed Yu Canghai's chest with his sword, then turned around to dodge Yu Canghai's attack. The sword tip then turned again, aiming directly at Yu Canghai's armpit.
Yu Canghai didn't even have time to parry with his sword. His vest was soaked with sweat. It was almost as if Li Ping had made two sword strikes before he had only made one. How could it be that fast?!
In fact, Li Ping's skill in the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique is still inferior to that of Lin Pingzhi later on.
After all, he had practiced the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique for a shorter period of time, and his skill was weaker than that of Lin Pingzhi, who had become a disciple of Mount Hua.
However, the 0.6x acceleration allowed Li Ping to surpass Lin Pingzhi in speed.
Yu Canghai is no match for him at all!
However, Yu Canghai was hit by three swords in just two exchanges. This was because Yu Canghai was fighting to the death with every sword strike, and Li Ping did not want to exchange injury for life.
The Qingcheng disciples were dumbfounded.
"How is that possible?"
"Master couldn't even stop it?!"
"This is the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique? How can it be so fast?"
"He looks like a ghost!"
Sha Tianjiang stared in disbelief: "This is the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique! This is the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique! Perhaps only Alliance Leader Zuo..."
In his view, even Zuo Lengchan couldn't possibly be faster than Li Ping.
However, Zuo Lengchan's swordsmanship is divine and his skill is profound, so he must have a way to deal with it.
It's astonishing that such a ruthless character has emerged from such a small city as Fuzhou. Yu Canghai must have been blinded by greed to even set his sights on the Evil-Repelling Sword Manual.
I was completely tricked by Yu Canghai, which is why I got involved in this mess!
Yue Lingshan and Lao Denuo were equally dumbfounded. The real Evil-Repelling Sword Technique was actually this powerful?
Where did Yu Canghai get the audacity to cause trouble for the Fuwei Escort Agency?!
Huang Rong and Su Ying looked at each other in bewilderment.
They had seen Li Ping practice swordsmanship; in fact, it could be said that they were teaching Li Ping the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique. But Li Ping's sword was now so much faster than usual.
How is that possible?
Lin Zhennan finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed the escort agency was saved, and so were the lives of his family of three...
……
Yu Canghai was almost going crazy. Their Qingcheng Sect had spent so many years researching how to counter the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique.
But when they actually clashed, he found that all that research was completely useless.
Without experiencing it firsthand, it's truly unimaginable that someone's swordsmanship could be so fast and so unpredictable.
He fought desperately, even at the cost of injury, to fight Li Ping head-on. He was confident that even a mere touch of his sword would send Li Ping's sword flying.
But he couldn't even touch Li Ping's sword!
His heart was filled with despair. Losing or dying this time was a minor matter; what mattered was the reputation of the Qingcheng Sect…
Suddenly, his eyes widened sharply.
He saw a shadow silently creeping up from the roof towards Li Ping's back...
