Chapter 181 Obsessed, Father and Son Reunited

"Such a powerful truth!"

There was a flash of disbelief in Xiao Yuanshan's eyes.

Based on what he had heard and his own observations, he could be sure that Li Ming was a swordsman.

For the vast majority of sword practitioners, most of their cultivation is in the sword. The difference between having a sword in hand and not having a sword in hand is huge.

He made his move specifically because he saw that Li Ming was not carrying a sword, but he was still able to burst out with such powerful true meaning!

In an instant, Xiao Yuanshan's seemingly fierce attack became fragmented.

Even Qiao Feng couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.

After the battle of Juxianzhuang, he never saw Li Ming take action again. He only knew that his brother had greatly improved in strength, but he did not expect him to be so terrifying.

Dense wind blades composed of true energy rushed towards Xiao Yuanshan in the blink of an eye. Each one contained powerful true meaning, as if to crush everything.

Xiao Yuanshan sensed the powerful momentum contained in it and was forced to stop. At the same time, his pressing offensive finally came to a halt.

"It's now!"

Li Ming accurately seized the opportunity when his momentum changed and attacked fiercely!

The next second, Xiao Yuanshan was enveloped by an even more powerful truth.

The black robe on his body fluttered and all the internal energy in his body poured out, forming a thick barrier around his body.

At the same time, Xiao Yuanshan did not sit still and wait for death. He continued to snap his fingers, and the force of his Duolo Leaf fingers kept impacting Li Ming's offensive.

But it didn't work.

Once the offensive and defensive momentum between the two was reversed, Li Ming's true intention was like a tide, directly suppressing him.

"Brother, I'm here to help you!"

Qiao Feng was not idle either. He suddenly stretched out his palm, wanting to help Li Ming attack Xiao Yuanshan from behind.

Once the power of the Dragon Subduing Palm is used, even an iron man like Xiao Yuanshan will not be able to withstand it.

But Li Ming waved his hand at Qiao Feng and signaled with his eyes that he should not intervene.

Qiao Feng's palm power suddenly stopped.

But after thinking for a while, he shouted, "Brother, catch him alive. Don't let him get away. This guy is behaving strangely. I have to interrogate him thoroughly..."

Before he finished speaking, a powerful amount of true energy descended upon Xiao Yuanshan's body.

Accompanied by a loud bang, the true energy that Xiao Yuanshan had condensed with his whole body's cultivation burst layer by layer and continued to explode around his body.

Li Ming punched and palmed down alternately, bombarding him continuously.

All of Xiao Yuanshan's offensives were shattered in the powerful collision with Li Ming.

Each of Li Ming's attacks may seem simple, but in fact they incorporate the characteristics of many superior martial arts. They have the strength of the Dragon Subduing Palm, the flexibility of the grappling hands, and even the suddenness of the annihilation grab. They often appear strangely beside Xiao Yuanshan, making him unable to defend himself.

But the most important thing is that every move Li Ming made seemed to contain powerful true meaning!

Death, destruction, sharp...

Xiao Yuanshan's thick Qi shield was soon cut into pieces.

At the beginning, Xiao Yuanshan still had the strength to fight back, but after several attacks, he was shaken so much that he lost his balance and could only defend himself.

Whoosh!
Xiao Yuanshan's figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and he actually used strange body skills to try to escape.

The sharp blades that were intertwined in the air suddenly turned and chased in another direction as if they were spiritual.

Several feet away, with a loud explosion, Xiao Yuanshan's body shook violently, and he staggered. He reappeared, and then the sharp blades of true energy rained down on him.

It was just a blink of an eye and he was completely suppressed, unable to escape.

A trace of panic flashed across Xiao Yuanshan's eyes.

But at the critical moment, he did not dare to relax at all and continued to use the surging true energy to defend himself.

Several feet above him, Li Ming stood in mid-air supported by his true energy, constantly suppressing Xiao Yuanshan.

puff!
Xiao Yuanshan gritted his teeth and healed the hole that had just been opened by the sharp true energy, but he already felt a few strange feelings in his body.

At the beginning, the quality of Xiao Yuanshan's true qi was very high and he could compete with Li Ming, but with the crazy consumption, the true qi in Xiao Yuanshan's meridians rapidly decreased.

His response speed was far behind Li Ming's.

Along with this, Xiao Yuanshan began to feel a tingling pain in his meridians.

At the same time, Xiao Yuanshan also discovered that Li Ming acted as if he was walking in the garden with ease, and it didn't seem difficult for him to defeat him completely.

But he intentionally held back and instead kept consuming his own true energy.

At the beginning, Xiao Yuanshan's stinging sensation was not strong, and he didn't take it too seriously.

But soon, Xiao Yuanshan realized something was wrong.

The stinging sensation became stronger and stronger, and it even felt like a sharp blade cutting through one's meridians.

"How is this going?"

Xiao Yuanshan didn't have time to think about it, the severe pain suddenly engulfed him like a tide.

"what!"

Xiao Yuanshan let out a heart-wrenching scream. He could no longer support the Qi shield around his body and it suddenly collapsed.

Xiao Yuanshan fell to his knees, supporting himself with his hands, and trembled constantly as if in extreme pain.

"Ok?"

Qiao Feng standing next to him was stunned, unable to understand how this man in black who looked so capable of fighting could suddenly have a problem.

The moment Xiao Yuanshan gave up resistance, countless sharp blades stabbed at him from all directions.

At the moment when the attacks were about to touch and penetrate Xiao Yuanshan's body, Li Ming waved his hand fiercely, and all the attacks stopped instantly as if by the power of his arm, and then gradually disappeared.

Looking at Xiao Yuanshan again, Li Ming didn't even need to deal with him. He had already lost the strength to resist. He rolled back and forth in pain on the ground, and from time to time he let out a low roar like a beast.

"What's going on? Brother, what secret technique did you use to deal with him?"

Qiao Feng flashed to Li Ming's side and asked with a look of surprise.

But Li Ming shook his head.

"I didn't use any secret techniques. It was his own martial arts that went wrong and his hidden injuries got worse."

As he spoke, Li Ming and Qiao Feng came to Xiao Yuanshan.

He was still suffering from the torture.

Qiao Feng was completely confused, but Li Ming understood clearly.

What he remembered was indeed correct. Although Xiao Yuanshan's martial arts skills were high, he was actually on the verge of going insane and could not exert much power at all.

This is because, after the Battle of Yanmen Pass, Xiao Yuanshan wanted to jump off a cliff to commit suicide, but unexpectedly survived. His will to die gradually faded, and his anger for revenge rose.

Since the warriors from the Central Plains falsely accused him of stealing Shaolin's unique skills, he just wanted to learn it secretly.

Therefore, over the years, Xiao Yuanshan, like Murong Bo, often went to the Shaolin Scripture Pavilion to secretly learn the 72 unique skills.

The martial arts that Xiao Yuanshan used before were the results of his secret studies over the years.

However, Xiao Yuanshan did not know that there was another secret behind the Shaolin skills. Although they were all unique martial arts, they were too murderous and ran counter to the Buddhist philosophy.

Therefore, every time one learns a Shaolin martial art, one must practice the corresponding Buddhist Heart Sutra to dissolve the murderous aura contained therein.

If one only practices martial arts without the corresponding Buddhist cultivation, the murderous aura will only backfire on oneself. The longer and more one practices, the deeper the hidden injuries will become, and sooner or later one will go astray, become a disabled person, and put his life in danger.

In the original plot, Xiao Yuanshan, Murong Bo and Jiumozhi all suffered losses in this regard.

It was obvious that Xiao Yuanshan's hidden injury was extremely serious. There were signs of it before, but he just didn't take it seriously.

He had a strong cultivation base and sufficient inner energy, and he was able to suppress his hidden injuries.

But after a sudden fight with Li Ming of this level, the internal energy in his body was drastically consumed to a certain extent. The hidden injuries could no longer be suppressed and instantly worsened rapidly, leading to the current scene.

Li Ming stopped Qiao Feng who was about to make a move, stepped forward, and grabbed Xiao Yuanshan's pulse.

The longevity and creation power in his body was activated, and a wisp of vital energy immediately injected into Xiao Yuanshan's meridians.

The effect of the Longevity Creation Technique was immediate, and as this strand of true qi moved around, Xiao Yuanshan's pain was actually quickly relieved.

His heart-wrenching roar gradually subsided, and he gasped for breath, and a hint of clarity appeared in his old eyes.

Seeing clearly that it was Li Ming who was helping him, Xiao Yuanshan was filled with disbelief.

I just wanted to kill Li Ming, how could he be willing to help me?
Xiao Yuanshan subconsciously wanted to break free.

However, as soon as he moved a little, he was immediately engulfed by the extreme pain again, and he was so scared that he dared not move.

While Li Ming used the Changsheng Zaohua Gong to relieve his pain, he observed Xiao Yuanshan's reaction.

It seems that my guess was correct. The Changsheng Creation Technique really did have an effect on Xiao Yuanshan's hidden injury. This would be easy to deal with. It was worth my effort to lure him out.

Li Ming thought about it, and snapped his fingers, quickly sealing several of Xiao Yuanshan's vital points. At the same time, it did not affect the operation of the Changsheng Creation Power in his meridians.

Then, Li Ming stretched out his hand and pulled off Xiao Yuanshan's hood.

Qiao Feng hurried over and observed the other person's appearance, wanting to see who this guy with strange movements was.

However, when Qiao Feng saw it clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned.

Xiao Yuanshan is old, with wrinkles all over his face, bags under his eyes, messy white hair, and a painful expression on his face, making him look very miserable.

But the feeling Qiao Feng had when he saw Xiao Yuanshan for the first time was surprisingly very familiar!
"Huh? What's going on?"

While Qiao Feng was in a daze, he was searching his memory.

I don’t know the other person, and I haven’t seen him anywhere else, but where does this strange feeling of familiarity come from?

At the same time, Qiao Feng also discovered that after the other party's hood was taken off, when he made eye contact with him, a look of deep panic flashed across his face, as if he didn't want him to see his true face.

After a little thought, Qiao Feng suddenly reacted.

No wonder he looked so familiar to me, he actually looks somewhat similar to me!
Qiao Feng was stunned, and looked at Xiao Yuanshan carefully again with a puzzled look on his face.

But in a moment, Xiao Yuanshan had temporarily suppressed his hidden injuries with the help of Li Ming.

"You...you let me go!"

Xiao Yuanshan hesitated for a long time before he finally uttered this sentence.

"Senior Xiao, you have been secretly learning Shaolin martial arts for many years, and your hidden injuries have become extremely serious. Even if I let you go, it won't be long before your hidden injuries explode and you become possessed, making it difficult for you to survive."

"You're talking nonsense!"

Xiao Yuanshan cursed subconsciously.

But Li Ming's next words made him silent: "Senior Xiao, think about it yourself, have you been having frequent pains in some of the important acupoints on your body recently, and are they getting worse?"

Xiao Yuanshan was speechless.

He did have some pain in several acupuncture points recently, but he thought it was a normal reaction to practicing martial arts and did not take it too seriously.

Now I know what happened.

But soon after, Xiao Yuanshan reacted, looked up suddenly, looked at Li Ming in shock, his voice trembling.

"You, how do you know my last name is Xiao!"

Xiao Yuanshan looked as if he had seen a ghost.

Li Ming chuckled and said, "Not only do I know your last name is Xiao, I also know that you are Brother Qiao's biological father. Otherwise, why would I go to so much trouble to lure you out?"

"what!"

When these words were spoken, not only Xiao Yuanshan, but even Qiao Feng felt as if struck by lightning, and stood there in a daze.

"My biological father?"

Qiao Feng looked at Xiao Yuanshan in front of him again and was shocked beyond words.

"That's not right. When we were in the apricot forest, they clearly told me that my biological father had committed suicide by jumping off a cliff..."

Qiao Feng murmured, but looking at Xiao Yuanshan's face which was extremely similar to his own, he hesitated again.

After Li Ming revealed his identity, Xiao Yuanshan remained silent for a long time before he slowly spoke.

"I thought that no one would know my identity in this lifetime, but I never expected..."

Xiao Yuanshan's words were equivalent to implicitly acknowledging what Li Ming said.

After a long time, Xiao Yuanshan seemed to have sorted out his thoughts and looked up again.

"Yes, Feng'er, I am indeed your biological father. From our looks, others can tell that I am your father! If you don't believe me, why not tear open your shirt and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Feng reacted and ripped open his collar, revealing the wolf head tattoo on his chest.

Li Ming lifted up Xiao Yuanshan's black robe with one hand, revealing the wolf head tattoo on his chest. The two were almost identical.

"I was completely desperate and jumped off a cliff to commit suicide, but God didn't abandon me and let me survive. Since then, I have been planning to take revenge!"

"It's actually true... I, Qiao Feng, actually still have relatives in this world! Dad!"

Qiao Feng, who has always been a tough guy, suddenly learned that his biological father was still alive and right in front of him. The father and son were reunited, and he could no longer hold back and knelt down in front of Xiao Yuanshan.

"father……"

When Qiao Feng looked at Xiao Yuanshan's appearance, he was so excited that he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Just looking at Xiao Yuanshan's weather-beaten face, one can imagine how much he has suffered over the years.

Thinking of how Xiao Yuanshan had just suffered a flare-up of his hidden injury and rolled on the ground in agony, Qiao Feng felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife.

His father was clearly still alive, but for all these years, he had no idea about it and had not done anything to fulfill his filial duty to him, causing his father to suffer so much in secret. Qiao Feng felt heartbroken.

But at the same time, too many questions arose in Qiao Feng's mind.

Why would my father do this?
Why did he keep attacking me? He just tried to kill Li Ming?
Why do you know the secret?
For a moment, Qiao Feng couldn't even think straight.

"Brother, is my father's injury really serious?"

Qiao Feng thought of the most crucial point and hurriedly asked Li Ming.

Li Ming nodded.

"Yes, he is on the verge of going insane. As far as I know, there are no more than three people in the world who can save him."
