Chapter 120: Duan Yu, Eight Subduing Dragon Palms, Huo Du
Li Ping and his two companions sat down at a roadside teahouse for a short rest.
Just then, Li Jun suddenly let out a soft exclamation and looked ahead. He sensed a powerful aura rapidly advancing.
Not long after, a young voice suddenly rang out: "Stop chasing me! If you... if you keep chasing me, I'll... I'll take action!"
A rough, gruff voice roared, "Go ahead and attack! You Tatar spy, how dare you lay a hand on me? I'll make sure you die a horrible death!"
The young voice said, "I'm not a Tatar, I'm from Dali! Oh, no! Dali is in Yunnan now, I'm from Yunnan..."
Another voice cursed, "This kid's movements are too unpredictable! You don't need to follow the rules of the martial world when dealing with Tatar spies! Dark Green, give the order..."
Li Ping looked up and saw a young man carrying a woman on his back, running wildly toward them.
His speed was incredibly fast, his movements were unpredictable, yet he was extremely graceful, like an immortal descending to earth, though his expression was somewhat disheveled!
The young master was startled when he saw those people using hidden weapons. He immediately used his Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) and prayed to the "Fairy Sister" for protection!
Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of him, and the volley of hidden weapons fell into the figure's hands.
Those martial arts practitioners were furious: "Tatar experts have arrived to provide reinforcements... Oh, it's Master Li!"
Li Ping's name had already spread throughout the martial arts world; almost everyone in the martial arts world on Wudang Mountain had seen him.
He was the one who spread the news that the Tatars wanted to assassinate the emperor. Seeing that he was helping a "Tatar master", some people were extremely indignant: "Master Li, the Tatars have been rampant recently. It is said that hundreds of people have had their internal energy drained in the past few days."
"This man is a Tatar..."
Li Ping shook his head and said, "You must have mistaken me for someone else."
The man said, "Impossible, my brother's internal energy was drained by him earlier..."
Seeing that someone was coming to the rescue, the young man immediately said, "That was because you guys were harassing Miss Wang earlier! I didn't mean to, I couldn't control myself..."
Li Ping looked at the person who spoke: "Really?"
The man was somewhat embarrassed, but still said, "We thought this kid looked shifty, so we just wanted to check him out..."
Li Ping kicked him away: "Get lost, you bastard!"
Although these江湖人士 (jianghu figures) have passionate hearts, they are truly lawless. It's normal for them to flirt with pretty girls they see on the road.
Knowing they were in the wrong, those men didn't dare say anything more and ran away, since that guy had only been drained, not completely drained!
The young man cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, Master Li, for saving my life. Your name is truly renowned."
Li Ping said, "With your martial arts skills, I'm the one who saved their lives. Why don't you sit down with me?"
The group entered the teahouse.
The young man said, "My name is Duan Yu, and this is Miss Wang, my companion."
"We are preparing to go to the place where we often look for people."
Li Ping laughed and said, "You are extraordinary people, aren't you?"
Duan Yu hurriedly tried to wave his hand to deny it, but then he remembered that this person was his savior, and it would be wrong for him to deceive his savior. For a moment, he didn't know what to say, and his face turned bright red.
Wang Yuyan, however, said, "Master Li, your insight is truly remarkable. We are indeed extraordinary people. In today's terms, we should be people from the Northern Song Dynasty."
Duan Yu thought for a moment, "Hero Li is famous throughout the world, and he saved us before, so he must not be a bad person."
He's an extraordinary being, and so am I; he definitely won't attack me!
He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Indeed, the world is ever-changing, like clouds turning into grey dogs."
"Who would have thought that Dali would become part of Yunnan now?"
Li Ping looked at him: "You haven't gone back to check?"
Duan Yu's face flushed red, because he had met Wang Yuyan shortly after arriving in this world, and had no intention of returning to Dali to visit her. He only wanted to enjoy some time alone with Miss Wang!
Li Ping said, "Why don't we go to the capital together? It's easy for people to misunderstand you because you possess the Northern Darkness Divine Skill."
"Now, the Northern Darkness Divine Art is universally condemned."
Duan Yu was overjoyed. Going to the capital with this chivalrous Li would make him much safer.
It just meant less time to spend alone with Miss Wang.
After exchanging a few words, Huang Rong found an opportunity and asked softly, "You know them again?"
She no longer felt that Li Ping wanted to flirt with every pretty girl he saw, but she was still very curious.
Li Ping said, "Was he Emperor Duan's grandfather or great-grandfather? He possessed the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, the Lingbo Steps, and the Six Meridians Divine Sword..."
"Forget about the Northern Darkness Divine Art. We could try it, but the chances of success are slim!"
"I'm quite envious of the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps) and the Six Meridians Divine Sword, especially the Lingbo Weibu. If you and Ying'er practiced it, it would look so beautiful!"
Duan Yu's features were so distinctive that Li Ping recognized him from his footwork and speech.
Li Ping is currently very fast and his movement skills are decent, but after seeing the performance of Lingbo Weibu just now, he knows that his footwork and movement skills are still somewhat lacking compared to the top-level martial arts.
After a short rest, they continued on their way, when suddenly they heard a crying sound ahead.
Li Ping saw the man from before wailing loudly, and several people around him lay on the ground, barely breathing.
Li Ping asked in surprise, "What's wrong?"
The man looked at Duan Yu, his eyes bloodshot: "We just went to chase this villain... and when we came back, we were ambushed, and all the brothers were killed. If someone hadn't come to our rescue..."
Li Ping said, "Your internal energy was absorbed?"
The man nodded.
Duan Yu quickly waved his hands: "It wasn't me, it wasn't me! I was just having tea with Master Li!"
Li Ping immediately began to sense, and sure enough, he sensed two powerful auras, seemingly chasing each other...
He chased after them immediately...
……
Huo Du was running frantically.
That idiot Blood Saber Ancestor exposed himself so easily, and now everyone in the martial arts world knows about the Northern Darkness Divine Skill!
After it was exposed, everyone said to be careful.
But Huo Du thought they were all stupid. With martial arts like the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, why did they need to be careful?
If I absorb more, specifically targeting those with mediocre martial arts skills, and absorb from a hundred or two hundred people, wouldn't I be invincible?
Be careful my ass...
As it turned out, we ran into a tough opponent!
He had already absorbed the internal energy of more than thirty people, and his skill level had far surpassed that of his master, the Golden Wheel Monk. The sheer volume of his internal energy was unprecedented, yet he was still being kept up by others!
He's a master!
He then led the people toward the trap!
But the man was too fast. He caught up with the trap as soon as he reached it and struck out with a palm from afar. The force of his palm seemed to roar like a dragon, and it was incredibly fierce!
"That powerful?"
Huo Du was extremely shocked. He turned around and struck out with his palm. He had absorbed the internal energy of dozens of people, and his skill was already extremely profound. But when he encountered this person's palm force, it was like tofu, shattering at the first impact!
This looks like the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms?
Is this a master from the Beggars' Sect?
Their palms were about to meet.
Huo Du was overjoyed. This idiot knew I had the Northern Darkness Divine Skill, yet he still dared to challenge me!
Suddenly, his vision blurred, and those large hands passed through his palms, instantly striking seven major acupoints on his body!
How could such a powerful palm strike change like that?
This person's martial arts skills are truly terrifying!
The man looked at Huo Du and said indifferently, "The Northern Darkness Divine Art? Nothing special!"
