Chapter 205: The He Shi Bi Jade is in hand, Shi Qingxuan comes to visit.
Seeing the man strike him with a palm, Xu Ziling, true to his nature, was enraged.
Damn it!
I finally managed to steal the He Shi Bi jade, and then you snatched it away! What gives you the right?!
Xu Ziling had been hunted down since his debut, so he was very experienced in escaping. He prepared to take the force of the palm strike and use it to escape to the right.
But at that moment, his heart skipped a beat. He keenly sensed that the palm strike had suddenly changed direction and was aimed at his back.
Xu Ziling was stunned; he had never seen a palm strike that could bend so sharply in mid-air before.
He was holding the He Shi Bi jade in one hand. If he were to turn around and take the palm strike, he would be completely exposed to this person, leaving him wide open.
He was quick-witted and instantly understood what this person meant: he was forcing him to hand over the He Shi Bi jade!
You want the He Shi Bi jade?
I don't think about it!
He threw the He Shi Bi jade back to Jingnian Temple, caught the palm strike behind him, and then struck the man in front of him with his other palm.
As long as the person is blocked by his palm force, the He Shi Bi will return to Jing Nian Chan Temple.
I can't take it from you, but you can't either!
Just then, his vision blurred.
The person in front of him actually flew high into the air under such an impossible situation, swept over his head, and rushed straight towards the He Shi Bi. The speed was unbelievable. He stretched out his hand and sucked the He Shi Bi into his palm!
But in this situation, he would also fall into the hands of the monks at Jingnian Temple.
Unexpectedly, he suddenly took a step and flew high into the air again, flying back and bypassing Xu Ziling. He even slapped Xu Ziling with his backhand, forcing him back into the encirclement of Jingnian Temple.
The man leaped ten zhang in one bound, and just as he was about to land, he stomped his foot again and soared high into the air once more, disappearing from sight.
In that instant, both Xu Ziling and all the monks of Jingnian Temple were stunned.
Is this a light touch?
That's practically flying!
Xu Ziling was the first to come to his senses, cried out that something was wrong, and turned to run away, but the monks had already given up on him.
At this moment, Zen Master Liaokong finally came out.
He had been practicing his martial arts using the energy of the He Shi Bi jade when the energy suddenly went berserk. He couldn't withstand it and was slightly injured. He was recuperating when this happened.
He finally broke his silence: "The first person was Xu Ziling; they had been here before."
"No one else knows this, such lightness skill is simply unheard of."
"I'm sorry, Feixuan!"
Jingnian Zen and Cihang Jingzhai are essentially one family, like boys' and girls' classes in the same school.
Even so, he was extremely ashamed that the He Shi Bi jade was lost in his hands.
Dressed in blue robes and carrying a long sword, Shi Feixuan stepped out and looked in the direction where Li Ping had disappeared: "This kind of lightness skill is truly unheard of."
"But most importantly, he was so fast; he flew two or three times faster than the average person."
"Coincidentally, a peerless swordsman appeared at Manqing Courtyard tonight. He seemed to have fallen from the sky. No one had ever heard of him before."
"His speed is also incredibly fast."
Liao Kong chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Was it Li Ping, who forced Yin Hou to retreat with that sword strike?"
"Such characteristics are indeed unlikely to appear in different people."
"But if it really is him, with such unparalleled lightness skills, there is absolutely no one in this world who can take back the He Shi Bi from him."
"Ning Daoqi won't work either."
Shi Feixuan said with a wry smile, "So, Feixuan has no choice but to talk to him and reason with him first."
……
Ba Feng Han and Kou Zhong were anxiously waiting at the bottom of the cliff.
Just then, they saw a figure descend from the sky; it was their good buddy, Xu Ziling.
The two immediately prepared to lend a helping hand. Although they wouldn't die from falling from the more than 30-zhang-high cliff, they would still be injured.
But when Xu Ziling was about three zhang (approximately 10 meters) above the ground, he suddenly paused and then slowly landed.
The two were taken aback. When did Xu Ziling's lightness skill become so advanced?
When Xu Ziling was seizing the He Shi Bi jade, it was at the peak of its energy. He managed to refine that energy, which greatly helped him.
Kou Zhong was very concerned for him: "You weren't hurt by those monks, were you? Let me give you a proper check-up..."
Xu Ziling said irritably, "Get lost! I just snatched the He Shi Bi jade, but..."
Kou Zhong blinked: "But?"
Xu Ziling said helplessly, "It was stolen."
It was only the two of them; anyone else would never believe such a thing and would only think that Xu Ziling had embezzled the treasure!
Kou Zhong was furious: "Who is it?"
Xu Ziling shook his head and said, "I don't know? But that person's lightness skill was unparalleled. He descended from the sky, and just as he was about to land, he suddenly soared another ten feet and snatched the He Shi Bi jade."
"Then it flew backwards for ten feet and went around me. I was so scared I almost peed my pants."
Ba Feng Han couldn't believe it: "Are you kidding me? Even Bi Xuan couldn't do that kind of lightness skill."
Kou Zhong had complete faith in Xu Ziling: "If Bi Xuan couldn't do it, then that means this person is even more capable than Bi Xuan. So who could it be?"
Xu Zilin blinked: "Li Ping!"
Kou Zhong asked in surprise, "Why?"
Xu Ziling smiled wryly and said, "Because apart from him, I have never seen anyone that fast."
Kou Zhong was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter if it falls into his hands."
"If his lightness skill is really that amazing, even the monks of Jingnian Temple wouldn't be able to take back the He Shi Bi jade."
"Whether I have the He Shi Bi or not is not important; what matters is that no one else has it. The most important thing is that it cannot fall into the hands of that brat Li Shimin."
……
Click...
The window opened, and Li Ping went into the room.
Seeing it was him, Hua Zhenzhen breathed a sigh of relief: "I really should have gone with you. The people coming one after another were driving me crazy."
Li Ping said, "I'm going to rob something. Miss Hua, you can't do such petty theft with me."
Hua Zhenzhen said irritably, "If I were a friend, I wouldn't say that. I think you just see me as a burden!"
Li Ping took out a lead box, which he had prepared before going to Jingnian Temple. He wasn't in a hurry to use it and wanted to wait until he found Huang Rong and the others so they could use it together, so he needed something to put it in.
He wouldn't keep such a good thing to himself.
He knew that the energy radiation of the He Shi Bi was very strong, and when it was activated, even a master of Liao Kong's level could not withstand it.
Jingnian Temple used a copper hall to isolate the energy of the He Shi Bi jade, but he estimated that lead might be even more effective.
After all, lead can even block nuclear radiation, and even Superman's eyes can't see through it.
Then, he looked at Hua Zhenzhen with a mischievous grin: "I've got something good for you!"
After saying that, he opened the box and handed the He Shi Bi jade to Hua Zhenzhen.
Hua Zhenzhen took the He Shi Bi in her hands and immediately felt an unimaginable "qi" within it. She had a gut feeling that absorbing this qi would be of great benefit to her.
The fact that Li Ping would so readily hand over something to her, showing such trust, made her heart tremble once again.
She then examined the jade seal closely. She noticed that its edges were somewhat damaged, but had been repaired with gold. Five dragons coiled around it, and the seal was engraved with a design of two dragons playing with a pearl.
When she saw the large characters printed on it, she almost dropped the jade on the ground.
She couldn't believe her eyes; her hands trembled. "By the mandate of Heaven, may its reign be long and prosperous? This...this is the He Shi Bi jade? The Imperial Seal of the State?!"
Li Ping smiled smugly: "It is indeed the He Shi Bi jade. Most importantly, it contains a very powerful energy that is of great help to martial artists."
"Once we find Rong'er and the others, we'll suck it up together."
"However, this energy is constantly changing and can affect innate true qi, so it's best to keep it in this box."
"I reckon this box can isolate its energy!"
Hua Zhenzhen carefully placed the He Shi Bi jade back into the lead box. She dared not take it, for fear of dropping or damaging it!
How could someone as unaffiliated as myself, a wandering swordsman, possibly come into contact with something like this...
Most importantly, Li Ping said he wanted to share the energy within the He Shi Bi jade with himself.
Why is he so good to me?
Just then, a clear, melodious voice rang out from outside the window again: "Shi Qingxuan requests an audience with Brother Li..."
