Chapter 7 Li Ding
Chapter 7 Li Ding
"He discovered me?"
Subconsciously, he looked away. This time, the "beggar" only came to witness the legendary immortal's appearance and did not want to attract too much attention.
After all, he is about to make a major decision.
This decision would make him unacceptable in this world of supernatural beings, so he decided it was best to keep a low profile.
To the "beggar's" relief, the other person's gaze only swept over him before quickly shifting away, which made him breathe a sigh of relief.
"Elder brother, what's wrong?"
At the same time, Lu Jin noticed his senior brother's unusual behavior and couldn't help but follow his gaze, but he couldn't see anything special.
"fine!"
Zhao Yifan withdrew his gaze, turned to Zhang Zhiwei and the others with a smile, and said, "Guests from afar, Senior Brother Zhang, please follow me!"
"and many more!"
Just then, a voice came from the crowd.
The next moment, everyone looked in the direction of the sound and saw a burly man with an ordinary appearance walk out from the crowd.
"He is Li Ding of the Tang Clan!"
Among the crowd, someone recognized Li Ding's identity and couldn't help but say, "His tone suggests he's not here with good intentions. When did the Tang Clan and the Sanyi Clan become enemies?"
"I don't know. I've never heard of any shady dealings between the Tang Clan and the San Yi Clan."
Someone looked confused.
Zhao Yifan looked at the man in front of him with a puzzled expression. Lu Jin stepped forward, looked at Li Ding, and cupped his hands, saying, "This must be Senior Brother Li Ding of the Tang Clan. May I ask if there is anything our Sanyi Clan has done to neglect our hospitality?"
Although Lu Jin is not very old, he is indeed a descendant of a prestigious family in the world of supernatural beings. He is skilled in social interaction and knows how to behave appropriately with all the guests.
However, Li Ding had no interest in getting close to this young master of the Lu family at the moment; he was staring intently at Zhang Zhiwei.
"Zhang Zhiwei, are you sure this guy fought you to a draw?"
Li Ding's words drew everyone's attention to Zhang Zhiwei.
Clearly, no one expected that these two people would have any connection.
Everyone was curious about the relationship between this Tang Clan expert and Zhang Zhiwei.
"Senior Brother Zhang, do you know him?"
Zhao Yifan looked at Zhang Zhiwei and asked. Too much time had passed, and Zhao Yifan, who had traveled through time, could only remember some important people or things. He really had no impression of the Tang Clan expert in front of him.
Faced with Zhao Yifan's question and the gazes of everyone around him, a look of confusion flashed in Zhang Zhiwei's eyes.
"This one……"
Scratching the back of his head, Zhang Zhiwei looked at Li Ding and said with a serious expression, "Um, have we met before?"
"Crack!"
In an instant, everyone seemed to hear a shattering sound.
Perhaps it was the black-tipped armor on Li Ding's body, or perhaps it was something called self-respect.
"You guy..."
Li Ding was so angry that his lips were trembling.
Having been defeated by this young Taoist priest before him, Li Ding's pride had been severely wounded.
Therefore, after returning to the Tang Sect, Li Ding devoted himself to cultivation, aiming to regain his dignity from this young Taoist priest.
However, when they met again today, they were surprised to find that the other person had actually forgotten about them.
forget?
This guy actually forgot?
Then why did he cultivate so desperately?
Seemingly sensing that the other person's mood was off, Zhang Zhiwei smiled awkwardly and said, "I'm sorry, I really don't remember you. Could you please give me a hint?"
"enough!"
Veins throbbed on Li Ding's forehead. He turned to Zhao Yifan and said, "Everyone is saying that you fought Zhang Zhiwei to a draw. Today, I'll test your mettle and see if you're truly qualified to be compared to Zhang Zhiwei!"
As Li Ding spoke, his body was suddenly enveloped in black armor.
"what?"
Zhao Yifan, who was just watching the melon on the side, suddenly realized that the melon had landed on his head, and he was stunned for a moment.
However, little did he know the complex feelings Li Ding was experiencing.
On the one hand, being easily crushed by the young Taoist priest he regarded as just a greenhorn made Li Ding harbor a slight resentment towards Zhang Zhiwei, after all, his self-esteem was indeed severely hurt.
On the other hand, Li Ding secretly felt a sense of admiration for Zhang Zhiwei.
At the same time, Li Ding also hoped that this young Taoist priest who easily crushed him was a unique and outstanding genius, so that he would feel better if he was defeated by the other party.
Therefore, the one who found it hardest to accept hearing that another person had fought to a draw with Zhang Zhiwei was Li Ding, who had previously been defeated by Zhang Zhiwei.
It was for this reason that Li Ding, who usually didn't like to join in the fun, made a special application to attend Zhao Yifan's concubine-taking wedding.
However, his purpose in attending this wedding was not so pure.
"That big oaf has some impressive skills, but his eyesight is a bit poor. He can't even see his opponent's strength. It's very dangerous for someone like that to travel in the world of supernatural beings!"
Among the crowd, a "beggar" was holding a plate of food and a chicken leg in his hand, enjoying it immensely while watching the two people facing off in the middle of the scene with great interest.
"Tang Clan, Li Ding, please enlighten me!"
Before the words were even finished, the force of the punch had already arrived.
Zhao Yifan frowned slightly, but then extended two fingers and gently pressed down on Li Ding's wrist.
A terrifying power erupted, and Li Ding began to spin uncontrollably in the air.
"This guy's strength is terrifying!"
Terrified, Li Ding did not give up. He suddenly grabbed out with both hands and dug two claw marks into the ground before he could finally stabilize his spinning body.
At the same time, Li Ding used the momentum of the rotation to kick Zhao Yifan hard in the head with both legs.
"Ugh--"
With a soft sigh, Li Ding was shocked to discover that his full-force kick had missed its target entirely.
"First comes strength, then speed!"
Upon realizing that he had only kicked an afterimage of his opponent, Li Ding felt a sense of powerlessness.
"Brother from the Tang Clan, please calm down. I have no intention of fighting you!"
Just then, a voice came from behind Li Ding.
Immediately afterwards, Li Ding felt a hand pressed against his back.
Immediately afterwards, a terrifying force erupted, and Li Ding was blasted away.
"boom--"
Li Ding crashed heavily into the wall and looked at his abdomen. On his black-tipped armor, there was a crack the size of a palm.
Li Ding knew that this was the power unleashed by the opponent's palm strike just now.
What's even more terrifying is the sheer power of the opponent. Despite channeling that power through his body to shatter the iron-hard black-tipped armor, Li Ding discovered that he himself hadn't suffered a single injury.
"How can he be so strong?"
At this moment, Li Ding was utterly shocked. He even vaguely suspected that this legendary man with the appearance of an immortal was even more powerful than Zhang Zhiwei!
"No, that's impossible. How could he be stronger than that little Taoist priest?"
