Chapter 143 Fate was already predetermined!
"what happened?"
"He's only a fifth-rank official, and he's badly injured. You're all too afraid to make a move?"
"Back then, the martial arts world of Manzhou was practically invisible. It wasn't until 'Demon Blade' Xiao Bieli emerged that they gained some fame, at least letting people know that Manzhou still existed. Now it seems that there's only one Xiao Bieli; the rest of the martial arts world of Manzhou are a bunch of cowards!"
Inside the Drunken Cloud Tower!
Seeing a group of martial artists from other states surrounding Han Wuyin but not daring to make a move, some outsiders burst into laughter.
Many of them came to see Manzhou because they knew about Xiao Bieli's background and were curious about this place that produced a true disciple of the Cangyuan Sword Sect and the "Demon Blade" Xiao Bieli.
I never expected to witness this scene so soon after entering Manzhou and having a meal at Zuixiaolou.
These Jianghu heroes from the barbarian states are truly ungrateful. It's already a stroke of luck that Xiao Bieli and the Blood-Clad Tower haven't caused them any trouble.
They still dare to get involved in the struggle between the Blood-Clad Tower and the imperial court.
Didn't you see that even a first-rank master from the imperial court died at the hands of Xiao Bieli?
Hearing the voices of martial arts practitioners from other states, the Jianghu travelers from Manzhou all looked displeased.
The three fifth-rank experts at the head of the group exchanged a glance.
Swish swish!
One of them made the first move, thrusting his spear forward with a cold glint, aiming for Han Wuyin's back.
At the moment this person made their move,
The other two also made their move!
The three attacked from different directions, determined to severely injure Han Wuyin.
Otherwise, they would have lost face big time today!
Clang!
Han Wuyin drew his longsword, its blade flashing brightly.
Dangdang Dangdang!
Several crisp sounds rang out.
The spear was split in two, broken into two pieces.
Of the three fifth-rank martial artists who made the move, one had a long gash cut on his waist, and blood stained half of his body red.
"Quick, accurate, and ruthless!"
"As expected of assassins trained by the Blood-Clad Tower!"
"If this person hadn't been injured, that sword strike just now would have killed at least one of them!"
"..."
A discerning martial artist, upon witnessing Han Wuyin's sword strike, offered an accurate assessment.
"Although he's not good enough to be on the Dragon and Tiger List, he's still young, and his future is not without potential!"
"Hehe, you don't know yet, Han Wuyin's identity has been exposed. He is the disciple of Chenlong, a senior member of the Twelve Yuanchen of the Blood Robe Tower. And Chenlong's true identity is Gu Xuantong, who was ranked second on the Grandmaster Ranking thirty-five years ago. Not long ago, the deputy leader of the Giant Spirit Gang died at his hands."
"Then why is this child studying swordsmanship?"
"how could I know?"
"I've heard that Gu Xuantong's sword technique is quite powerful!"
The group surrounding Han Wuyin was in a bind. Han Wuyin's swordsmanship was simply too terrifying. Even a fifth-rank expert was instantly injured when he went up to him, so the others dared not make a move.
"enough!"
A cold shout came from the second floor of Zuixiao Tower.
A middle-aged figure dressed in monk's robes appeared on the second floor. He looked down at Han Wuyin and said calmly:
"Han Wuyin, you will not leave Zuixiao Tower today!"
"If you cripple your martial arts, I can let you live a few more days!"
"It's the Master of Abstinence from Killing!" Someone recognized the middle-aged man in the monk's robe.
One of the only two remaining fourth-rank grandmasters in Manzhou, the Abstinence from Killing Master!
Although Jie Sha wore a monk's robe, he was still the strongest martial artist in Manzhou, drinking, eating meat, and frequenting brothels. Even Gu Family Fortress Master and Zhang Tao, who died at the hands of Xiao Bieli, had to give Jie Sha face.
call!
The people surrounding Han Wuyin breathed a sigh of relief.
Now that the Master of Abstinence from Killing has arrived, Han Wuyin has no way to escape today.
At this moment, a smile appeared in Han Wuyin's eyes, and he shook his head, saying:
"This time, I'm afraid I won't have to cripple myself!"
Ok?
Everyone was stunned, but seeing Han Wuyin staring at a corner on the first floor of Zuixiao Tower, they all followed his gaze.
Then they saw a young man dressed in black, carrying a long sword with a blue hilt, sitting with his back to the crowd.
Everyone frowned.
An uncertain thought arose.
Young, carrying a knife!
Could this be the 'Demon Blade' Xiao Bieli?
Thinking of this, many of the martial arts enthusiasts who were watching the show couldn't sit still.
"Demon Blade" Xiao Bieli is ruthless and kills without blinking an eye. He often wipes out entire families, and the Giant Spirit Gang is the best example of this. If you get caught up in it, it's not worth it.
clang!
Some of the martial arts practitioners who were surrounding Han Wuyin earlier dropped their knives, unable to hold them properly.
The Master of Abstinence from Killing also looked terrified.
He was only responding to the imperial court's call. It was fine for him to bully Han Wuyin, but if he were to face the 'Demon Blade' Xiao Bieli, even if he had several lives, it wouldn't be enough for Xiao Bieli to kill him with one strike!
"Young hero?" Master Jiesha cupped his hands in greeting to the young man in black and said:
"May I ask if you are Young Hero Xiao?"
Xiao Bieli ignored Master Jiesha completely, turned to look at the entrance of Zuixiao Tower, and said:
"This blood-calculation technique is really quite skilled."
"You actually managed to find me?"
Everyone followed Xiao Bieli's gaze.
Only then did they see that three figures had appeared at the entrance of Zuixiao Tower at some point. One was dressed in a gray robe and exuded a chilling aura, while the other had a full head of white hair and a pale face, as if he had been seriously injured.
The last one, though elderly, was full of energy.
Just by looking at them, you can tell that these three people are not ordinary!
Xuanjizi looked at Xiao Bieli and shook his head, saying:
"Everyone's fate is predetermined!"
"Even if there are minor deviations, there won't be major ones. Just like I predicted that you would appear at Zuixiao Tower today, so we are waiting for you here."
"Xiao Bieli, with your destiny, you should have died long ago!"
"But from this day forward, all destinies will be set right and put back on track!"
Wow——!
The whole place was in an uproar!
Is it really Xiao Bieli?
Apart from Han Wuyin, none of the others present had ever seen Xiao Bieli before, only his portrait.
But now that those three have pointed out Xiao Bieli's identity, it should be pretty much confirmed.
Moreover, since these three dared to cause trouble for Xiao Bieli, they must be first-rank experts!
Han Wuyin also realized this, and his master was Gu Xuantong, a Grandmaster at the peak, who knew more than ordinary people.
Is it Tianji Valley, or Xuanjizi?
"If everyone's fate is predetermined, then why should I bother grinding for experience points?" Xiao Bieli stood up and shook his head.
"What martial arts practitioners should do is constantly become stronger, so that human effort can overcome nature?"
Eunuch Tian looked at Xiao Bieli, his eyes narrowed, and said coldly:
"There's no need to say anything more to this traitorous scoundrel; today is your death day!"
