Chapter 42: Stripping Zuo Lengchan naked and revealing the difference between the righteous path and
Huang Rong could be said to be the person in the world who knew Li Ping's martial arts skills better than anyone else. She knew that even with his special "talent," Li Ping's strength was still inferior to Dongfang Bubai's.
Even with the "Invincible Vajra Divine Skill," it could only guarantee that he wouldn't be killed by Dongfang Bubai.
Even if there was Yourenzui, Dongfang Bubai was able to suppress Yourenzui before, which shows that Yourenzui had little effect on him.
But Li Ping actually won?
What other tricks does this guy have up his sleeve?!
He's utterly a mystery!
At this moment, the experts from the Five Mountains Sword Sect also came to their senses, after all, they had heard Li Ping's voice before.
Fei Bin exclaimed incredulously, "It's Master Li? But why is Master Li riding in the entourage of Dongfang Bubai?"
"It's very simple..."
Yue Buqun and his wife entered with a group of Huashan disciples, and said in as calm a tone as possible, "Because Hero Li has already killed Dongfang Bubai."
These words struck like a thunderbolt, leaving everyone stunned and their minds reeling.
Their first reaction was, "Impossible!"
They had witnessed the battle between Li Ping and Dongfang Bubai. Although Li Ping was strong, he was still a long way from Dongfang Bubai.
Perhaps 10 years from now, Li Ping will be in his prime, his skills will be increasing, and Dongfang Bubai will be old and frail. With this shift in power, Li Ping will have a chance to defeat him.
It hasn't even been a day yet, and you're saying he's already killed Dongfang Bubai?
They couldn't believe it, couldn't accept it, couldn't understand it!
My brain completely shut down!
"That's impossible."
Sitting in a restaurant in the distance, Yaoyue couldn't hold back and blurted out.
From her perspective, Li Ping had no chance of killing Dongfang Bubai.
Even if Li Ping has the "Invincible Vajra Divine Skill" and cannot die, and can fight Dongfang Bubai to the death, can't Dongfang Bubai escape if he can't win?
Little Fish asked curiously, "What did you hear? What's impossible?"
What news could have caused the renowned Palace Mistress of Yihua Palace to lose her composure like this?
The little fish was extremely curious.
Yaoyue said, enunciating each word clearly, "Li Ping went to hunt down Dongfang Bubai and killed him with his sword."
A buzzing sound filled Little Fish's mind, and his mouth opened wide.
How is that possible?
He'd witnessed the battle between Li Ping and Dongfang Bubai before; the difference in their strength was too great, impossible...
So what trick did Li Ping use?
Poisoned?
Assassination?
However, Dongfang Bubai had many subordinates, and Li Ping was all alone. How could he be so easily poisoned or assassinated?
He got goosebumps all over: "This guy is absolutely outrageous. I just can't imagine how he did it!"
Even if he exhausted all the tricks in his mind, he couldn't figure out how Li Ping killed Dongfang Bubai.
Then a sense of loss washed over me.
He had previously discovered that Jiang Yulang had infiltrated the Huashan Sect, and the feud between the two had long been irreconcilable.
So he went to cause trouble for Jiang Yulang, but Jiang Yulang managed to escape by threatening the lives of passersby...
He believed that his martial arts skills and intelligence were superior to Jiang Yulang's, but Jiang Yulang was always able to escape from him.
Li Ping's martial arts skills were far inferior to Dongfang Bubai's, and he had no one to rely on, yet he was able to kill Dongfang Bubai, who was numerous, powerful, and had unparalleled martial arts skills...
Is the difference really that big?
Little Fish murmured, "It's not just about killing him. He came in Dongfang Bubai's retinue, and the sedan chair bearers were the same. He might have subdued the Sun Moon Cult."
"How is this possible?"
Only then did Yaoyue realize this, and her eyes widened in surprise.
is it possible?
Yaoyue was confident she could kill Dongfang Bubai alone, but after killing Dongfang Bubai, she couldn't then incorporate the Sun Moon Cult...
She felt that she had no chance of doing it; it wasn't something that could be achieved simply by being skilled in martial arts.
This guy is indeed a mystery.
Is it related to "blessings from immortals"?
How exactly can one obtain "divine blessings"?
Huang Rong and the other woman exchanged a glance!
Not defeat, but kill?
How did Li Ping manage to do that?!
He's amazing!
Fei Bin's mind was in complete disarray. The reason the Five Mountains Sword Sects formed an alliance was to fight against the Sun Moon Cult.
The Sun Moon Cult was already very powerful, but its current strength is closely related to Dongfang Bubai's reputation as the world's number one. Previously, people from the five factions would tremble at the mere mention of Dongfang Bubai's name.
Now that Dongfang Bubai is dead, the pressure on the Five Mountains Alliance has been greatly reduced, making it even more difficult for Songshan to merge with other factions.
However, Yue Buqun would never tell such a lie in public...
He stammered, "Li, Master Li, you...you, really, really..."
Li Ping lifted the sedan curtain and stepped down, nodding and saying, "It was just luck."
Master Dingyi's mind went blank. She involuntarily took two steps back, first laughing three times, then crying out, "That demon Dongfang Bubai, he's really dead..."
Her master died at the hands of Dongfang Bubai, which is why she lost her composure so much upon hearing the news of Dongfang Bubai's death.
Master Tianmen, the head of the Taishan Sect, was flushed with excitement, repeatedly exclaiming, "This demon is dead! This demon is dead! Heaven has eyes! Heaven has eyes!"
Only Liu Zhengfeng remained silent.
Seeing these high-ranking members of the Five Mountains Sword Sects both crying and laughing, one can tell how much pressure Dongfang Bubai had put on them before.
It took Master Dingyi a while to recover her composure. Then she chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Having lost my composure so badly this time, I should face the wall in meditation for three months after returning to Hengshan as a warning."
"Congratulations, Master Li, on ridding the world of this scourge!"
Master Tianmen also recovered and said respectfully, "Hero Li, you killed Dongfang Bubai and rid the world of evil. I admire you greatly."
"But what did you mean by what you said before?"
Li Ping said, "It's exactly what it sounds like. I'm really confused. What exactly is the demonic path? What is the righteous path?"
"You say that the demonic path indiscriminately kills innocent people and runs rampant."
"But Yu Canghai was also part of your righteous path before. He coveted the Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Technique and intended to exterminate the entire Lin family."
"Master Yue sent his own disciple and daughter to spy on the Lin family's Evil-Repelling Sword Technique, presumably because he also has some ideas about it."
"As for the Songshan Sect, in order to unite the Five Mountains Sects, the Left Alliance Leader had long ago sent his disciple Lao Denuo to Mount Hua as an internal spy, and even invited disciples of the Mount Hua Sword Sect, intending to compete with Sect Leader Yue for the position of sect leader."
"Furthermore, he bribed three Taoist masters of the Taishan Sect of the Yu generation, intending for them to seize power."
"He even bribed the 'Golden-Eyed Crow' of the Hengshan Sect, and now he wants to exterminate Liu Zhengfeng's entire family..."
"The Songshan Sect is the leader of your Five Mountains Alliance, the head of the righteous path!"
"How is his behavior any different from that of a demonic cult?"
Li Ping exposed Zuo Lengchan's true colors in just a few words.
Laudenau quickly replied, "No..."
Before he could finish speaking, Linghu Chong's "Phoenix Arrives" technique had already struck.
Having experienced this before, he deeply abhorred such betrayal and would strike first at the slightest sign of trouble!
If he had used the Huashan sword technique, Lao Denuo would definitely not have been able to block it. He had no choice but to use the Songshan sword technique to block the attack and then escape behind Fei Bin.
His identity is no longer a question.
If this is true, then the rest...
The other five factions felt a chill run down their spines, leaving them feeling cold all over, and then they were filled with rage.
Yue Buqun did not stop Lao Denuo because he already knew Lao Denuo's identity and was not angry. However, when he heard that Zuo Lengchan had actually invited a disciple of the Sword Sect to compete with him for the position, he went crazy.
Master Tianmen slammed his fist on the table, shattering it: "Zuo Lengchan, what a Zuo Lengchan! He harbors such wolfish ambitions!"
Master Dingyi stood there dumbfounded. She had been dissatisfied with the actions of the Songshan Sect and was the only one present to try to stop Fei Bin, but she was simply too weak to do anything about it.
Unexpectedly, the Songshan Sect had such a scheme!
The Left Alliance Leader has done so much for the other factions, but what about my Hengshan?
A chill ran down her spine!
The entire Liu residence fell into a deathly silence.
The disciples of Songshan were terrified, and the three bodyguards immediately spoke up in rebuttal.
Li Ping shook his head and said, "I have no intention of criticizing Leader Zuo. It is normal for a man to have ambitions and want to accomplish great things, and it is understandable even if he uses some means."
"I just don't understand, what exactly is the difference between the righteous path and the demonic path that you speak of?"
"I'm not being sarcastic, I genuinely don't understand. Even now, I still don't know what you're all arguing about."
