Chapter 156: Fame soars, the Bat King strikes
Song Qingshu, a third-generation disciple of Wudang, picked up the Five Elements Flag with his sword and fought against Yang Xiao, the Left Protector of Light, with no clear winner. The news spread like wildfire throughout the martial arts world. Not many people understood the reason, but as a result, Song Qingshu became famous throughout the martial arts world. The Wudang Sect was once again filled with guests, and countless people came to learn from him.
Song Qingshu returned to Zhuwu Lianhuan Manor and briefly described his battle with the Five Elements Flag and the entire day's battle with Yang Xiao. This made Yin Liting and Mo Shenggu's blood boil. "Yang Xiao, I'm going to fight him after all."
Although he had decided to marry Wu Qingying, he still had feelings for Ji Xiaofu, and he never took off the title of her fiancé.
"It will be difficult for Sixth Uncle to surpass him in martial arts. The martial arts that Yang Xiao displayed to the public are not all. It seems that the bastard has hidden an incredible and unique skill. If Sixth Uncle wants to deal with him in the future, just call on me. He is old, while I am still young and my strength will continue to grow. I will be able to defeat him thoroughly soon."
Song Qingshu said indifferently, "After all, the Ming Cult is the backer of the Tianxia Righteous Army. Although we can't kill them with one blow, it's okay to fight them occasionally for fun, as long as no one is killed."
Mo Shenggu and Yin Liting pointed at him, feeling both amused and helpless. He didn't take the Ming Cult's evil leader, who was avoided by others, seriously at all, and even said something nonsense like "it's just a fight for fun". This time, Song Qingshu stepped on Yang Xiao and the Ming Cult to gain attention, and there might be a lot of troubles later. The big evil leaders of the Ming Cult who disliked each other might have the idea of stepping on Song Qingshu to suppress Yang Xiao.
On the way back to Wudang Mountain, before reaching Emei Sect, the Green-Winged Bat King Wei Yixiao arrived quietly and joined their group. He even sneaked into their camp at night, but was discovered early by Song Qingshu, Mo Shenggu and Yin Liting.
"The Wudang heroes are really powerful. Even if I fight one against three, I, Wei Yixiao, am not afraid of you. Oh, your lightness skills are pretty good." Wei Yixiao dodged the three people and went straight to Zhou Zhiruo and Wu Qingying. However, the two women were not weak either. With long swords in their hands, Wei Yixiao could not defeat them quickly. Yin Liting and Mo Shenggu could not catch up with him, but Song Qingshu kept pace with him, and did not attack but just smiled at him.
"Song Qingshu from Wudang has met with the Green-Winged Bat King Wei of the Ming Cult. I wonder why the Bat King has come here so late at night?" Song Qingshu took a step forward and stepped on the place where Wei Yixiao would have landed next, forcing him to move sideways, but his speed was slightly slowed down.
One wrong step leads to another. Song Qingshu anticipated the enemy's moves and seized the initiative from Wei Yixiao everywhere, making it extremely awkward for him to run.
"Your mental arithmetic skills are quite impressive, kid. I heard that you and Yang Xiao were evenly matched. I didn't believe it at first, but now I do. Your Qinggong skills are definitely not comparable to Yang Xiao's. Did you hold back when you were fighting him?" Wei Yixiao turned around and ran out. "Wei Yixiao believes that his Qinggong skills are the best in the world. If you have the guts, come and chase me."
Song Qingshu did not stay either. He just ordered Zhou Zhiruo and Wu Qingying to follow Mo Shenggu and Yin Liting back to Wudang. He still needed to have a good time with the masters of the Ming Cult and would not be back in a short time. As he spoke, the figures of the two disappeared from his sight.
"Master once said that Qingshu's Qinggong was a unique skill in the martial arts world, and that I might not be able to defeat him. But after seeing him today, I know that he was right. The Ming Cult's Green-Winged Bat King, who was always known for his Qinggong and Ice Palm, was surprisingly surpassed by Qingshu in Qinggong."
Mo Shenggu said with a hint of emotion, "When Qingshu was just a child, he would drag me along to entertain Third Brother, playing all kinds of tricks just to make him laugh. Who would have thought that in just a dozen years, he would become one of the most powerful masters in the martial arts world."
Yin Liting couldn't help but laugh as he thought of the time when Song Qingshu was spanked by his elder brother Song Yuanqiao for being too naughty, and therefore dragged Mo Shenggu to practice the Iron Shirt. Zhou Zhiruo said unhappily, "The Ming Cult can't stand losing, so they're entangled. Senior Brother Song clearly promised to take me on a journey through the martial arts world. Next time, when I have mastered my martial arts, I will definitely choose Bright Summit as well."
"You have good ambitions, but you can't be too careless. The Ming Cult's reputation for dominating the martial arts world for decades is not in vain. At least the Green-Winged Bat King's lightness skills are beyond your reach." Yin Liting suddenly felt discouraged. The four Dharma Kings of the Ming Cult were still ranked lower than the two left and right envoys, and their martial arts were only one level higher than his. He was afraid that he was still far behind Yang Xiao. When would he be able to avenge Xiaofu?
Wu Qingying seemed to be aware of Yin Liting's worries and silently grabbed his hand, which made Yin Liting feel warm in his heart. It was not easy for this proud and beautiful girl to do this for him, but he could not let her down again and let the tragedy happen again.
Song Qingshu followed Wei Yixiao two meters away, neither too far nor too close, neither too fast nor too slow, which made Wei Yixiao quite unhappy. No matter how he accelerated or changed direction, the boy behind him always followed him and could not get rid of him no matter how he climbed through mountains and rivers and went up and down.
"How long are you going to follow me, kid?" Wei Yixiao was also a character who refused to admit defeat. He had always been proud of his lightness skills. Who would have thought that a third-generation Wudang disciple could actually fight with him on equal terms, and from the looks of it, he seemed to have some strength left.
"Of course, it will continue until you admit defeat or collapse due to lack of internal strength. If I wasn't afraid that you would slip away, I would have run ahead of you long ago and let you chase me. When will this leisurely stroll end?" Song Qingshu pretended to be disdainful and almost pissed Wei Yixiao off to death. Someone actually said that his lightness skills were poor and he ran slowly?
"I, Wei Yixiao, have been famous for decades. I can run for three days and three nights without any problem. I'm afraid you can't hold on." Wei Yixiao kept walking, but his voice didn't seem as loud as Song Qingshu's.
"I've brought some dry food and water. I'm younger and stronger than you, so seven days and seven nights might be a bit exaggerated, but three days and three nights shouldn't be a big deal. At most, I can just get a good night's sleep. But Wei Yixiao, are you sure you can suppress the coldness in your body?" Song Qingshu said in a very natural tone, "You Ming Cult members are numerous and powerful on Guangming Peak. Although I can suppress Yang Xiao, I dare not really defeat him. If I can't defeat the Left Envoy of Guangming, can I still defeat the Four Dharma Kings?"
"Bullshit, how could our four Dharma Kings be weaker than the two left and right envoys?" Wei Yixiao couldn't help but get angry. He turned around and slapped Song Qingshu with a palm. A chill came towards him. Song Qingshu turned around and ran. This time, Song Qingshu was in front and Wei Yixiao was behind.
Wei Yixiao was at a loss whether to laugh or cry. Even though this kid was in front of him, he was still paying attention to him. When he saw that he was running slowly, he would wait for him. When he saw that he was catching up closely, he would speed up a few steps and always keep a distance of three to five meters away from him. He looked like he was determined to compete with him in lightness skills.
"Just run. I, Wei Yixiao, have given in. I won't chase you anymore." Wei Yixiao stopped as he spoke. Song Qingshu ran a few steps and then stopped as well. He then walked back and said, "It's boring. It's not fun at all. You gave in so quickly. It makes me feel really unfulfilled."
"You are indeed a monster, no wonder you can lift the Five Elements Flag with your sword. You can defeat Yang Xiao with your lightness skills, internal strength, swordsmanship, and fists and feet. I, Wei Yixiao, have also seen the chess record you left behind. Your finger-snapping ability is really powerful. Wei Yixiao can't help but admit that he is inferior to you. But I have never been convinced by Yang Xiao. Originally, I wanted to suppress you to step on Yang Xiao, but I didn't expect that you would be so powerful." Wei Yixiao looked Song Qingshu up and down, and exclaimed in amazement.
"I can heal your internal injuries and help you improve your martial arts." Song Qingshu's words startled Wei Yixiao, who quickly asked, "How did you know I was injured?"
"Is blood tasty? If your training hadn't gone awry, would you have drunk that stuff?" Song Qingshu curled his lips and said, "Fight with me. I'll beat you up and cause your old injuries to relapse, and then I'll help you heal completely. Don't drink blood anymore. It's not good for you."
"Hmph, you kid are so arrogant. I'll hit you if you want. Do you think I, Wei Yixiao, am afraid of you? It has always been others who are afraid of me." Wei Yixiao struck out with a palm, but Song Qingshu was not intimidated. He used the "Turning Heaven Palm" to meet it, but his internal force was quietly replaced by the "Nine Yang Divine Art". Every palm was so hard and yang that it made the coldness on Wei Yixiao's body weaken a little.
The two men had extraordinary lightness skills, and the two blue and white figures were entangled so clearly that it was difficult to see clearly. With a loud "bang", Wei Yixiao fell to the ground. Song Qingshu pointed at him and slapped him on the body with his hands. The Nine Yang True Qi continued to flow, and his iron-blue face gradually showed a hint of redness.
"Haha, it's done!" Song Qingshu slapped out 981 palms in a row, then jumped up and landed beside him. He let out a long breath, and casually flicked out a stone to untie Wei Yixiao's acupoints.
"I, I'm fine?" Wei Yixiao couldn't believe his feelings. The cold that had troubled him for so many years was actually fine?
"Boy, you cured Wei Yixiao's internal injuries. If you need me to do anything, just tell me. If I can do it, Wei Yixiao will definitely not refuse."
"You should go back to Guangmingding and continue your training. When I challenge you again next year, try your best to defeat me. Being invincible is really lonely sometimes." Song Qingshu's words made Wei Yixiao almost spit out blood. This condition was really speechless.
The two of them traveled together for three days. After three days, Wei Yixiao left behind the secret book of "Ice Palm" and left. He no longer had any doubts about Song Qingshu's strength. Martial arts realm and cultivation would not lie. Song Qingshu even gave him some guidance on his practice so that he would not have a relapse in the future, and even prescribed a prescription for him to nourish his body.
The old illnesses from these years cannot be easily and completely recovered. Even if the injuries are healed, it will take another three to five months to slowly repair the damaged foundation.
It's time to go back to Guangmingding. Old guy Yang Xiao is a little overwhelmed by himself. He has been wandering outside for too long. Now that he has recovered, it would be unreasonable if he doesn't go back.
