Chapter 140
You must know that in the eyes of the immortal sect elders, the status of a warrior is naturally incomparable with that of any immortal cultivator. What's more, Daozhen is not an ordinary sect disciple, but a disciple of Elder Qingyi.
It can be an anomaly for Daozhen to become the protector of a warrior like Qin Shiqing.
Although it is abnormal, it also shows the importance of Qin Shiqing in the minds of Qing Taoists.
"Brother Arhat, please come with me to Wan Ronghua's mansion tonight and just wait and see." Qin Shiqing said.
Warriors naturally respect the strong. This Arhat is a steward on the surface, but now he is stronger than Qin Shiqing, so Qin Shiqing cannot really treat him as a servant.
"Hmm...shall I go too?" Arhat was startled.
Qin Shiqing was so calm before, so he was using his breakthrough self as a trump card?
No wonder he is so confident, it turns out he is an Arhat!
"That's natural." Qin Shiqing smiled and said seriously:
"A gentleman does not stand behind a dangerous wall. I promised Wan Ronghua to get rid of the Qiao family's future troubles, but I did not sacrifice my life for his little wealth... Since we have to deal with the Qiao family, we must do our best to avoid any future troubles and risks. ”
"...That's true." Arhat looked slightly strange and muttered in his heart:
"Actually, it makes sense. Is it possible that Qin Shiqing was favored by Dao Dao Sect because his mind is different from ordinary people?"
"I heard that he was extremely determined to pursue the Tao. In his early years, he was even willing to sacrifice his wife and children for the sake of enlightenment. Now it seems really extraordinary."
Arhat murmured in his heart, and went out with Qin Shiqing, disappearing into the night.
...
Outside Wanronghua Mansion.
Qiao Mu stood on the eaves of the small building, overlooking the busy scene of guards patrolling and patrolling inside Wanfu.
"The security is quite tight. When did you alert the snake and let the news leak out?"
Naturally, Qiao Mu didn't know that this was because Fang Fang's frame-up of Fang Yuan had alarmed Wan Ronghua, who was frightened and ordered the guards to enforce martial law.
But that's not important either.
Qiao Mu had no intention of walking out alive anyway.
As long as he can kill Wan Ronghua, what if he is discovered?
Qiao Mu originally wanted to follow the example he had when he was a guest at his friend's house named Guo, and go to the kitchen to grab his tongue first, but now it seems that sneaking in slowly is impossible.
Then, we can only sneak in physically.
He bent his knees slightly, jumped up, and his figure blurred and disappeared on the spot, bringing only a gust of night wind.
The Hidden Shadow Step was originally a light skill of the Snitch. Now Qiao Mu has focused his practice on the Hidden Shadow Step and has reached a perfect level.
Falling to the ground, broken windows, no sound.
Even the patrolling guards did not notice this blurry shadow passing by.
The inner energy burst out under the feet, and the trees shuttled through the mansions like the wind. At the same time, countless wind sounds, voices, and footsteps reached my ears.
"Wan Ronghua...in the wing to the east of the backyard."
Qiao Mu's ears twitched, his body lifted up, and he landed lightly on the eaves. He took out a stone in his hand.
Inside the wing.
Wan Ronghua was sitting peacefully on the Grand Master's chair, looking a little impatient, and was talking to his concubine Fang Fang beside him.
Qiao Mu has never seriously practiced concealed weapon techniques, but at his level of martial arts, under the infusion of internal energy, picking leaves and flying flowers can hurt someone, let alone a stone?
Holding his breath, Qiao Mu moved his hand, and the stone in his hand was immediately thrown out.
The stones blurred into afterimages in the air, and even made a sharp sound of breaking through the air, pointing directly at the Wanronghua.
Just in the blink of an eye.
A palm stretched out from the side, holding the stone in the palm of the hand.
In front of Wan Ronghua in the wing room, a standing figure suddenly appeared.
This figure seemed familiar to Qiao Mu. He had known him once before. He was Qin Shiqing, the executioner at Caishikou Execution Ground that day.
As a first-level god-refining master with keen intuition, sneak attacks and ambushes are almost ineffective against him, and Qin Shiqing was naturally aware of the sneak attack on the tree in advance, so he took action quietly.
When Wan Ronghua was shocked and frightened, the guards in the mansion also reacted.
"There's an assassin!"
An old man in black appeared quickly and pulled Wan Ronghua back quickly.
The rest of the guards patrolling the mansion also swarmed in and soon surrounded the wing, surrounding the trees on the eaves from all sides.
Qin Shiqing pointed his toes, jumped up to the roof, and looked at the old man in front of him, slightly surprised.
"It seems that they are really the Qiao family?"
"Just in time, we'll avoid any trouble tonight."
Qiao Mu didn't dress up in disguise or wear a night mask or anything like that... He wanted to write his name on his face.
At this time, Qiao Mu looks quite old. His physical age is already over a hundred years old. His beard and hair are all white, and his long silver hair is scattered on his shoulders. After using "Flesh and Blood", the current Qiao Mu is the same as the ninety-year-old Qiao Shuanglin before. Similar in appearance but not identical.
"Did Qin Shiqing and Wan Ronghua get together? That seems to me just right. They can solve both sides at once."
Qiao Mu was not too impressed by Qin Shiqing. After all, he only had his knees broken by the opponent's kicks, not fatal injuries.
But now that the other party has made it clear that he wants to help Wan Ronghua and even looks like he wants to kill him, then Qiao Mu will naturally not be kind to a woman.
Chapter 167 The old monster of the Qiao family has shocking five hundred years of skill (4k
"Master Qin is really here..."
Wan Ronghua was really relieved.
Both he and Qin Shiqing actually have an unclear relationship with Dao Dao Sect.
Logically speaking, as a wealthy man in the imperial capital, he had to pay a large sum of gold and silver to the Dao Dao Sect every month. The Dao Dao Sect would not disregard his life or death even if he thought about it.
But truth remains true. Immortal cultivators are transcendent after all. Wan Ronghua couldn't figure out what the Dao Dao Sect's immortal cultivators thought.
Now that Qin Shiqing has come as promised, he doesn't have to worry about so many vain things.
Qin Shiqing is very extraordinary. Although the so-called "Qin Shiqing who killed his wife to prove his truth" is not a good reputation, such a ruthless person will undoubtedly be feared and respected by many people in the world.
The old man in black helped Wan Ronghua and wanted to leave, but Wan Ronghua waved his hand to stop him.
He can't leave.
It wasn't because Wan Ronghua was so bold that he wanted to watch the fight between two top martial artists at the scene. The main reason was that he didn't dare to leave.
Qin Shiqing was such a ruthless person, so naturally he would not dare to offend him.
The other party's willingness to come to help had already given Wan Ronghua a huge amount of face.
If Wan Ronghua left the mansion in a hurry and fled for his life, leaving Qin Shiqing here to fight the old man of the Qiao family, Wan Ronghua would be worried that Qin Shiqing would stab him when he turned around after killing the people.
However, although he did not leave the scene, Qiao Mu no longer had time to care about such a rich man.
Because all his attention was placed on Qin Shiqing.
"This man named Qin Shiqing seems to have something extraordinary."
Qiao Mu frowned and looked down at his arms. The hairs on his arms were standing on end and goosebumps had already appeared on his arms.
The god-refining warrior has keen intuition and can anticipate the enemy's opportunities.
And Qiao Mu, who has practiced the "Martial Spirit Rhinoceros Technique" to this day, can be regarded as a half-spiritual martial artist, but his intuition is sometimes good and sometimes not good.
But this time, his body sensed a huge crisis.
And at this moment.
Qin Shiqing moved.
He held the stone in his hand and gently threw it towards Qiao Mu. The throwing action was exactly the same as Qiao Mu's. It was obvious that he deliberately wanted to use the same move against Qiao Mu.
laugh!
The stone shot through the air like a sharp arrow, pointing directly at Qiao Mu's eyebrows, but the speed was not too fast.
This is actually in line with Qiao Mu's understanding of the god-refining martial artist.
The strength of the God-Refining Warrior lies in the "god", but the physical strength or internal strength may not be much stronger than that of a fourth-grade Jin-Refining Warrior.
Even the stones thrown by Qin Shiqing, a first-level martial artist, were not very fast and were not a threat to Qiao Mu.
Qiao Mu thought about this and turned his head to avoid it, but at this moment, there were warning signs in his heart.
Boom.
The stone turned a small arc in the air between the lightning and sparks, and hit the side of Qiao Mu's face, causing the skin and flesh to burst open and blood to flow freely.
"The stone has turned?" Qiao Mu's heart moved.
When he fought against Wu Qingxin, a saint who practiced both Taoism and martial arts in Nanzhou, Wu Qingxin, who was in the Qi refining stage, showed a flying sword move. This is actually the sword-controlling technique in the immortal way and has nothing to do with martial arts. .
At this moment, Qin Shiqing, a first-grade martial artist, showed off the curves of stones, which were vaguely similar to the sword-control skills of monks in the Qi Refining Stage.
"Is this worth being surprised? How old are you living like a dog?" Qin Shiqing smiled, took a few steps, and stepped forward.
"The 'god' of a first-grade martial artist is already powerful enough to leave the body and control objects. The so-called three thousand avenues lead to the same destination through different paths, so there is nothing surprising about it."
Qin Shiqing's eyes were as sharp as a knife, and the long knife in Qing's hand traced a path. The blazing light of the knife cut through the deserted night, and slashed diagonally towards Qiao Mu's left shoulder.
At this moment, Qiao Mu once again had a premonition, and goosebumps appeared on his right shoulder.
"It looks like he's going to chop my left shoulder, but my instinctive warning is my right shoulder. Are you trying to change your tactics?"
Thoughts were spinning in Qiao Mu's mind. He didn't have time to think about it. He followed his body's instinct and twisted his right shoulder while shortening his body.
Hiss!
Qiao Mu was hit by a knife in the middle of his left shoulder, and his robe was torn open with a long gash. The cold force tore the wound open, and blood flowed like a profuse stream.
"The intuitive warning was wrong? He didn't mean to chop my right shoulder?" Surprise flashed in Qiao Mu's heart.
Although his intuition works sometimes and sometimes fails, is this the first time that his intuition has gone wrong since he started practicing martial arts?
Qin Shiqing didn't give Qiao Mu time to think. He kept staring at Qiao Mu as sharply as a knife. At the same time, he slashed out one after another with the long knife in his hand, like the waves of the sea, one after another.
What made Qiao Mu feel even more uncomfortable was that during this process, his half-hearted intuitive perception repeatedly misjudged at this moment.
In a short period of time, Qiao Mu had been stabbed six or seven times in a row, and blood was flowing all over his body.
Even though Qin Shiqing, who is a first-level God Refiner, has much better speed, strength, and internal energy in the blade than the ordinary fourth-level god, he is still not as good as the hundred-year-old Qiao Mu.
Despite this, Qiao Mu was suppressed by Qin Shiqing's continuous sword light at this time, and new wounds appeared on his body from being slashed.
Qiao Mu has long been used to injuries, and his attainments in hard skills are not low. With the full body protection, the wounds were many but not serious.
"The fight between the god-refining warriors is not only a physical battle, but also a mental battle..." Qin Shiqing secretly smiled in his heart, and he slashed with the sword in his hand, seemingly with ease.
For a first-level warrior, the "god" is already powerful enough to affect physical objects, so it is easy to suppress a weaker god-refining warrior than him and cause the opponent's intuition to misjudge.
The third-level warriors are all god-refiners.
And from the third level to the first level, it is the difference between the strength and weakness of the martial artist in the way of refining the gods.
The ninth-grade martial artist is an artificial distinction. One of the reasons why a first-grade martial artist is more powerful than a second-grade or third-grade martial artist is that he can target the weak, form Qi traction, and form suppression in the confrontation between the mind and the heart.
Although Qiao Mu has not embarked on the true path of god refining, he can still be regarded as a half god refining warrior.
His intuition was sometimes good and bad, but it was an advantage at this time... If Qiao Mu was an ordinary third-level god-refining martial artist, he would have been suppressed by Qin Shiqing through a mental confrontation.
Ding-ding-ding-ding.
Countless sparks flashed between the swords, and another wound was added to Qiao Mu's body, but Qin Shiqing was a little impatient.
Although he felt that his strength was higher than that of Qiao Mu, the old man clearly had signs of declining Qi and blood that could not last long, but he was far more rough-skinned and fleshy than he imagined.
He was slashed with blood all over his body, but he didn't react at all. He didn't even frown, and his movements didn't slow down at all.
"What are you doing standing around? Come on together." He waved to the many guards surrounding Wan Ronghua.
There were dozens of guards around Wan Ronghua, including several god-refining warriors, but they were just skimming the formation and did not participate in the fight between Qin Shiqing and Qiao Mu.
Urged by Qin Shiqing, the old man in black next to Wan Ronghua was startled and asked:
"Master Qin has profound skills. It should be easy to deal with this old thief. I can just wait and raid the formation nearby, right?"
