Chapter 72 - 72 This Guy Is So Terrifying
72 This Guy Is So Terrifying
When the armored cavalry appeared, Bai Bashan and the other seven people were stunned.
Their whereabouts should be absolutely confidential. There were only eight heads, and at most, a few more personal disciples would know about it.
How did the armored cavalry know? Not only that, the army was actually led by Qin Huai?
Bai Bashan didn’t know where to start. However, from the rough estimate of five hundred armored horsemen, he knew that if he wanted to kill Sun Yuanshan today, he would have to…
!!If he could not kill Sun Yuanshan today, he would not have any chance before the tide of demons ended.
“Well…”
Before Bai Bashan could finish his sentence, Qin Huai, the leader of the group, gave the order. “Kill them!”
Qin Huai’s voice was like thunder, and the armored horsemen instantly rushed over like a flood.
Bai Bashan was dumbfounded when he saw the five hundred cavalrymen charging over. How would he dare to attack the seven experts with just five hundred cavalrymen? It was wrong!
“Retreat!” Bai Bashan did not dare to stay any longer. Since this person was so decisive and confident, there must be an endless stream of armored troops approaching from behind or on both sides!
As long as they were delayed here…
When the three thousand iron armored troops arrived, they would surround this place.
Even if there were only seven of them, they would probably have to suffer more than half of their numbers to have a chance of breaking out of this encirclement.
Bai Bashan and the other dojo masters couldn’t care less about their dignity as top-tier experts. They immediately turned around and ran.
Just like that, the seven top-notch experts of Pingnan came and went.
As they fled, they did not forget to observe their surroundings to avoid the faint sound of horse hooves. They ran for more than ten miles and only slowed down when he couldn’t hear any sound.
The seven of them looked calm, but they were all relieved in their hearts. They had thought that today was a siege and they would be almost killed…
“Something’s wrong… We’ve been tricked by that kid!” Bao Ziyan suddenly cursed.
Thinking back carefully, the sound of horse hooves from the two sides was too sparse. At most, there were dozens of them.
Now that he had come to his senses, Qin Huai’s five hundred cavalrymen should be all of them. That shout of killing was also Qin Huai trying to scare them.
Now that everyone had escaped from danger, they all reacted. But it was too late.
“That’s not right. If the city lord knew that we were gathering here to plot and wanted to kill us, why did he only send five hundred cavalry?” Bao Ziyan was puzzled.
The few of them walked as they reviewed what had happened. There were too many things that were not right with tonight’s ending.
“Brother Bai, how did you write your letter?” Qing Yunhe asked.
Bai Bashan frowned. “I’m afraid of being kidnapped by the city lord’s mansion. That’s why I only wrote ‘I personally invite Sun Yuanshan to meet him alone at the pavilion.’ I didn’t mention anything about the eight major martial arts centers.”
The master of the Mang Mountain Saber Dojo said, “It looks like I can only kill one or two heads at most of those five hundred cavalrymen.”
“If it’s safe, I’ll only kill one person!”
At this point, Bao Ziyan and the rest looked at Bai Bashan. The latter’s expression was a little strange.
The conflict between the Thunderbolt Dojo and the Changshan Dojo was obvious. Just like how Bai Bashan seized the opportunity to take Sun Yuanshan’s life, Changshan Dojo would not show mercy if they were given the chance.
This was the accumulated grudges of several generations, and it could not be resolved.
In the letter tonight, Bai Bashan invited Sun Yuanshan alone again…
Then, the purpose of the five hundred cavalrymen today…
In an instant, Bai Bashan’s cold sweat poured down like a storm. “Judging from Sun Yuanshan’s behavior tonight, he doesn’t know…”
The image of the white-robed man with his hair tied up flashed through Bai Bashan’s mind. “It’s that little brat, Qin Huai! He’s so vicious! You actually want to take my life tonight?”
Bai Bashan’s heart was filled with fear. Initially, he had really wanted to come alone.
Just now, he was still upset that Sun Yuanshan had saved his life tonight. However, it seemed that Sun Yuanshan was not the only one who had managed to survive. There was still him!
Bai Bashan punched the tree and gritted his teeth. However, if one were to look closely, they would notice that his hands were trembling slightly.
Even for a top expert like him, unknowingly walking to the gates of hell would cause his state of mind to fluctuate greatly.
Although he didn’t know how Qin Huai had managed to mobilize the armored cavalry from the city lord’s mansion, the mastermind behind tonight’s plan’s failure was definitely this man!
“That kid must die…”
Qin Huai was far more sinister and cunning than his master, Sun Yuanshan! This young man was so terrifying…
…
“I didn’t expect that the second young master of the city lord’s mansion would become your disciple. And you, as the master, even personally came to ask for an acknowledgment gift, an opportunity for five hundred armored horsemen to go to the pavilion to kill Bai Bashan. To think that you could come up with such an idea…”
Because the horses were too bumpy, Qin Huai carried Sun Yuanshan, who had been dealt with simply, and ran toward the Changshan Dojo.
“Hahaha … Cough, cough, you’ve come at the right time. If it wasn’t for you, I’m afraid I would have died there. Your master did not teach you in vain. You are now even more active than when I was young.”
Sun Yuanshan coughed twice and spat another mouthful of blood on Qin Huai. Five or six of his ribs were broken, and his left hand was also broken… There were countless injuries to the bones, and even the five internal organs were damaged.
Qin Huai looked at his master’s miserable state and heard his master’s weak voice. He was full of heartache.
With his master’s age, he didn’t know how long it would take for him to recuperate. Even if he could recuperate, his master’s foundation and longevity would be greatly reduced.
Apart from feeling heartache, there was an unknown fire burning in Qin Huai’s heart.
The seven dojos wanted to exchange benefits and set the first place internally? Are they looking down on the Changshan Dojo?
Then he would not let them have their wish. He would take the first place!
In the grand martial competition half a year later, he must beat down the so-called number one genius that they had internally decided on in front of everyone’s eyes.
And he would slowly settle the score with the masters of those seven dojos..
Sun Yuanshan seemed to have read Qin Huai’s mind and quickly comforted him. “Huai ‘er, don’t mind it too much. You don’t have to feel too burdened… It’s just a grand martial competition. I’ll just do my best when the time comes.
“Don’t go astray and hurt your foundation. Let him be strong, we’ll just torture him to death!
“When I was young, I couldn’t beat Bai Bashan’s father either. But look at the current situation… The grass on his father’s grave is already three feet tall.”
Sun Yuanshan had lost his sage-like demeanor at the moment. He was like a talkative elder who was constantly enlightening Qin Huai.
The two sides had shed all pretenses of cordiality and completely divided the camp into the seven major martial arts centers against the Changshan Dojo and the city lord’s mansion.
However, it was absolutely impossible for them to fight to the death. The current strength of the Changshan Dojo did not allow it.
All the conflicts could only be released in that great martial competition. However, they had the advantage in a two-on-seven battle.
Under normal circumstances, Sun Yuanshan naturally felt that Qin Huai had a higher chance of winning.
However, in the current situation, Qin Huai would definitely face many obstacles in the grand martial competition. If he insisted on fighting for the first place…
Sun Yuanshan was afraid that Qin Huai’s life would be in danger. ‘I’m afraid I’ll have to swallow this…’
Seeing that Qin Huai didn’t reply, Sun Yuanshan sighed and immediately changed the topic. “Oh right, I still don’t know how you found me in such a large wilderness.”
This was also what he was curious about. He had borrowed this apprenticeship gift from Qin Huai, mobilized the troops, and hurried on his journey…
Looking at the time, he couldn’t afford to make a single mistake. If there was any delay, he would probably die.
It could be said that after Qin Huai had borrowed the troops, he had headed straight in this direction.
However, there were too many soldiers who had to kill Bai Bashan to get to the small pavilion. Why did it have to be this?
“If you go through this path and enter the pavilion, you can kill Bai Bashan. If anything happens, Master will definitely return to the dojo from another direction, and I can help him in time.”
“How can you be so sure that I will go in this direction?” Sun Yuanshan asked.
Hearing this, Qin Huai stretched out his hand and broke off a branch, then placed it in front of him.
A strong wind blew, and the branches bent with the wind…
The master and disciple looked at each other.
Sun Yuanshan laughed. “Hahaha… Huai’er is like me! You’re indeed my favorite disciple!”
No wonder, no wonder… Wherever the wind went, poison would follow. This was the master and disciple’s poison-using technique.
Behind him…
Sun Tong and Hu Jinghai were riding together.
The commander of the city lord’s estate, the experienced and knowledgeable Sun Tong, looked at Qin Huai’s back with a face full of admiration. “Young Master, your master is definitely not an ordinary person!
“You must listen to Grandmaster Qin’s words and focus on your practice. I dare not say that you will have great achievements in the future, but you will definitely be more than enough to help the city lord and the eldest young master.”
The extraordinary courage, meticulous mind, and cunning of repelling the enemy… If any one of them was missing, Sun Yuanshan would probably die tonight.
It was just that Sun Tong’s words were perhaps a little redundant.
At this moment, Hu Jinghai was so excited that he could not control himself. “Master is indeed a master! Such a scheme! Such courage!
“In the entire city, which third refinement would dare to take the initiative to have thoughts about a sixth refinement martial artist? And he easily broke the killing trap of the seven great experts? Only Master can do that.
“If I’m successful in my studies, It shouldn’t be a problem for me to defeat a fourth refinement martial artist with my first refinement realm… No, my qi and blood are almost the same as those in the second refinement, and I can almost scheme against a fifth refinement martial artist. I feel like I’m more useful than Big Brother…” Hu Jinghai mumbled excitedly to himself, causing Sun Tong to feel embarrassed.
The young master’s thoughts were really out of place. Could it be counted like this…
“No, I think I have to talk to my father. It’s better to put our bets on Master than to raise Big Brother. With master’s ability and talent, he will definitely be a big shot in the future!”
Hu Jinghai was in high spirits. After saying that, he quickly picked up a medicine book from the city lord’s mansion and began to read it.
This was his master’s instruction, so he did not forget it even when he was on horseback.
Now, in Hu Jinghai’s opinion, he could ignore his father’s words, but he could not ignore his master’s words.
