Chapter 71 Killing Two Grandmasters, Yue Qing's Plea
It seems that the fake silver bill case in this world has indeed undergone tremendous changes compared to the original plot, and other forces have been involved.

What surprised Li Ming even more was that Xiang Song’s strength was inconsistent with what he had heard before.

When Li Ming was at Tongfu Inn, he would often hear passing warriors discussing interesting things in the martial arts world.

Among them, there is a lot of information about the Money Gang.

At least according to the rumors in the martial arts world, Xiang Song should only be at the Innate Realm.

But when he just made a move, it was obvious that the opponent was already a master.

Could it be a recent secret breakthrough?
But if you calculate this way, the Money Gang has many Grandmasters, and its strength should not be underestimated.

Zhuge Gang, who swept through thousands of troops, was a master who had been famous for many years and had profound cultivation, otherwise he would not have been ranked eighth on the weapon list.

Thinking of this, Li Ming's eyes swept across the two iron crutches in Zhuge Gang's hands, and he remained somewhat alert.

The style of the Money Gang, besides loving money, is to collect martial arts related to various weapons.

As a result, the masters in the Money Gang often use various strange weapons as weapons.

If you don't have relevant experience in facing the enemy, it's easy to suffer losses in this regard.

Yue Qing didn't expect someone to suddenly rush out and was stopped by Zhuge Gang behind him, so he could not help but take a few steps back.

But there was a thoughtful look in his eyes.

There are still quite a few people in the temporary workshop nearby.

They suddenly heard a sound and saw Li Ming, a stranger, appearing here. After being stunned, someone hurriedly rang the copper bell at hand.

"Dangdang..."

The sound traveled far in the silence surrounding the room.

Soon, there were chaotic footsteps and a group of warriors holding sharp blades rushed in from several directions.

"There are enemies!"

"How did he sneak in?"

"Go and help the two hall masters."

The newly arrived warriors were frightened when they saw this.

They were responsible for patrolling the area, and allowing someone to sneak in here inexplicably was a huge dereliction of duty. They might even be held accountable afterwards.

Therefore, he hurried over to make amends.

From the way they addressed each other, one could tell that Zhuge Gang and Xiang Song and these warriors had a superior-subordinate relationship.

In this way, we can guess that these warriors should also be members of the Money Gang.

It seems that the Money Gang and Ji Le Lou are secretly collaborating.

Xiang Song and Zhuge Gang exchanged glances, moved their feet and began to adjust their positions.

One in front and one behind, they surrounded Li Ming in the middle.

And those post-natal realm warriors also came over with weapons in hand.

"Boy, who are you and how did you find this place?"

"If you surrender obediently and explain yourself clearly, we can still..."

Xiang Song held the meteor hammer in his hand and spoke to Li Ming.

But before he could finish his words, Zhuge Gang from behind suddenly attacked.

As Tieguai raised his arm, several sharp energy streams shot out.

They verbally advised Li Ming to surrender, but in fact they did so to attract his attention. Another person suddenly attacked him from the side. They cooperated very well and it seemed that this was not the first time they did such a thing.

"Shh!"

Zhuge Gang raised his iron crutch and felt a flash before his eyes, as if an arc of cold light passed through his eyes.

Along with it came a sudden feeling of palpitations.

It was Li Ming who drew his sword!

Li Ming quickly blocked the sharp and tricky Tieguai Qi with his sword.

There were loud clanging sounds coming from all directions.

Unexpectedly, this energy is much more domineering and powerful than Li Ming imagined!
As he made the move, the sword in his hand was actually shaken and moved sideways by about an inch.

Fortunately, Li Ming had a profound cultivation base, and he quickly increased his strength and injected his true energy into it, so he was able to hold it steadily.

The energy that was pushed away splashed out and directly made a deep hole in the brick and stone floor.

This shows how powerful it is!

This is even more terrifying than the power of a hidden weapon.

If it were someone else, without being on guard and just blocking with normal force, they would suffer a loss and get cut directly on the body.

This move of the opponent should have also incorporated some advanced qi and finger techniques.

Zhuge Gang was surprised, but then he saw clearly the sword in Li Ming's hand.

"Nine-curve sword? It's you!"

Before he finished speaking, Zhuge Gang leaped over and pointed out with his crutches alternately.

"Whoosh whoosh!"

Dozens of terrifying energy forces, even more powerful than before, were fired out like machine guns in an instant, attacking densely.

Li Ming swung the Nine-Curve Sword quickly and continuously mobilized the Qi.

But the force was so great that Li Ming was repelled by the force of the sword and was pushed back inch by inch.

The energy flew in all directions in an irregular manner, reflecting on the nearby ground, leaving behind more and more holes of varying depths.

Li Ming was shocked and retreated a few steps. He turned on his toes and tried to move sideways.

I heard the sound of wind "whooshing" behind my ears.

The meteor hammer struck at his back again at a rapid speed, and the sound of wind was only heard when the distance was very close.

No one knew what kind of martial arts Xiang Song practiced, but it seemed like he had a skill to conceal his movements when he attacked.

It was clearly such a large, solid meteor hammer, but it gave off the feeling of an assassin, and each time he was discovered only after getting close.

The force was so strong that Li Ming didn't want to take it head-on, so he moved his feet lightly.

Although he did not move significantly, he had somehow avoided the coverage of the two attacks.

"Buzz!"

The solid iron crutch swept over, and Zhuge Gang had already arrived in front of him.

A sweeping blow seemed to cut Li Ming in half.

On the other side, Xiang Song saw the meteor hammer flying past the direction where Li Ming was a moment ago, and he shook his wrist slightly.

The iron chain transmitted the force, and the huge meteor hammer actually drew an arc in the air skillfully, then turned around and ran towards Li Ming again.

"Clang!"

Li Ming swept the iron crutch with his sword and floated backwards to relieve the force.

He finally understood why Zhuge Gang was nicknamed "Sweeping Thousands of Troops".

Every move he made was done with great force, and this turn was extremely powerful.

If it cannot be stopped, the bones and tendons will be broken. Even the protective Qi of the Grandmaster level will be useless in the face of such terrifying force.

Li Ming just retreated to relieve the pressure and didn't want to force a confrontation.

But during the retreat, the meteor hammer aimed at his body trajectory and came whistling towards him again with the sound of wind.

Li Ming dodged at an extremely fast speed in an instant. Every step he took was completely unreasonable, but his body was extremely agile and he kept dodging and moving.

Xiang Song frowned slightly when he saw this scene, but he kept twisting his wrist in one breath, and waves of force were transmitted to the meteor hammer through the iron chain.

woohoo...

The wind continued to blow, and the meteor hammer seemed to have eyes, drawing arcs in the air and changing directions continuously, chasing after Li Ming with his movements.

During this time, Li Ming also tried to touch the meteor hammer with the tip of his sword.

But this weapon is so powerful and heavy, coupled with the strong inner energy infused into it, the combination of the two makes the sword completely unsuitable for head-on confrontation.

But Li Ming's body movements were extremely mysterious. Even though Xiang Song's wrist was almost shaking with sparks, the meteor hammer was still one step slower than Li Ming's body movements, and it just brushed past him every time.

A complicated entanglement happened in the blink of an eye. The moment Li Ming jumped away from his original position, the iron crutch passed through the afterimage he left there and hit the floor tiles heavily.

Debris flew everywhere, but still no success was achieved.

"Master Li is indeed very skilled in body movement!"

Zhuge Gang's voice came.

Li Ming finally managed to distance himself from them and breathed a sigh of relief.

These two people work together perfectly, and their attacks are both fierce.

Just now, one was far away and the other was close, and their coordination was seamless. The attack was continuous like the tide. If it were an ordinary Grandmaster, he would not be able to withstand it.

But Li Ming also has a basic understanding of their strengths and methods.

Even when his identity was guessed by the other party, he did not get impatient.

However, the warriors around, who had just been unable to intervene in the fierce battle, now saw Li Ming keeping his distance.

Some of them raised their pocket crossbows and shot at Li Ming.

Dense crossbow arrows whizzed towards us.

But compared with Zhuge Gang's dense energy, these are simply not enough.

As soon as the crossbow arrow reached him, it was swallowed up by the dazzling sword light that suddenly burst out from the sword in Li Ming's hand.

As sword energy radiated, the Nine-Curved Sword seemed to transform into hundreds or thousands of swords, forming a long river of sword energy.

boom!
The sword energy counterattacked, and a group of warriors had no time to dodge and were directly swallowed up.

Eight or nine acquired warriors from the Jinqian Gang didn't even have a chance to resist and were killed by the sword.

"Come and compete with me if you have the guts!"

Zhuge Gang's voice was heard, and his two iron crutches tapped the ground, and a figure slid over at an astonishing speed.

He really doesn't look like a person with a leg disability.

But before he could finish his words, the direction of the sword suddenly changed and came towards him.

The long river of sword energy did not weaken, but strengthened a lot. The exquisite free and easy true energy was constantly transformed into sword energy and rushed over.

Zhuge Gang even felt a stronger palpitation than before from Li Ming's sword energy.

Total Annihilation!

He did not dare to underestimate it, knowing that even Shangguan Yundun, who had been famous for many years, died under this sword, so he attacked with both crutches this time.

At the same time, a meteor hammer also attacked.

Zhuge Gang and Xiang Song have a perfect understanding of each other. Every time Zhuge Gang attacks, Xiang Song will keep in sync and attack from a distance, restraining him from two completely opposite directions.

The collision between Tieguai and the sword light canceled each other out. Zhuge Gang just broke through the curtain of sword light, but suddenly found that he had hit nothing.

Li Ming had already drifted away, fully demonstrating the mobility of Xiaoyao Yufeng.

A meteor hammer came towards him, and Li Ming tapped it with the tip of his sword. He misstepped his foot and easily released the force, rushing forward along the chain.

So fast!

Xiang Song felt panicked.

They were already surprised by Li Ming's repeated dodges just now, but they realized now that Li Ming's lightness skills were still retained!

The speed now doubled again, approaching as fast as lightning.

Xiang Song's wrist shook violently, and the meteor hammer drew a hook shape in the air, turning around and chasing after Li Ming, but it was far from being able to catch up with Li Ming's speed.

After the fight, Li Ming had already seen the pros and cons of the opponent's approach, and now he suddenly advanced.

The tip of the sword pointed directly at Song's eyebrows.

Xiang Song was unable to intercept, and swung the chain in his hand, and a black shadow shot out from his other hand.

Xiang Song's meteor hammer is actually double-headed. The big head in the front cannot be retracted in time, and there is a small head at the tail end, which is more dexterous.

But Li Ming was already close, and wherever the sword light went, it directly blocked all the escape routes of the small meteor hammer.

Once close, Xiang Song is at a disadvantage.

He hurriedly pulled back the small meteor hammer and wanted to attack again.

The iron chain had become entangled with Li Ming's sword.

"break!"

Xiang Song only felt a sharp pain in front of his eyes, and the iron chain made of fine steel was directly broken into several sections by the shock of Li Ming's sword.

As the chain fragments flew everywhere, the sword drew a trail and attacked.

"Zhuge Gang, save me..."

Xiang Song finally panicked. He knew that Li Ming was good at swordsmanship, but he didn't expect that once he got close, he wouldn't even have the strength to fight back or delay.

The cries for help stopped abruptly.

Li Ming's figure passed by Xiang Song vaguely.

Then Xiang Song fell to the ground and a red dot appeared between his eyebrows.

The wound looks small, but in fact the head has been pierced through.

The meteor hammer that was still gliding in the air lost control and flew out heavily, hitting a warrior from the Money Gang, smashing him into pieces.

Zhuge Gang's eyelids twitched when he saw it.

After realizing something was wrong, he rushed over quickly but still failed to stop it.

What was also unexpected was that once Xiang Song was approached, he had no power to fight back and died so quickly.

"weak!"

This is Li Ming’s evaluation of Xiang Song.

As soon as they fought in close combat, Li Ming realized that he should be a master who had just broken through not long ago, and his foundation was far inferior to his.

It's just that his style of play cooperated well with Zhuge Gang and hid his disadvantages.

Total Annihilation!

Li Ming did not stop and rushed directly into the Jinqian Gang warriors, imitating Zhuge Gang's stance and sweeping out with his sword.

A sword curtain appeared horizontally, and more than a dozen post-natal warriors were cut in half without any resistance.

Li Ming rushed into the group of remaining people as if he was in an empty space. With the fall of the Nine-Curve Sword, several people died.

Zhuge Gang was chasing eagerly and was almost close to Li Ming, but Li Ming suddenly stopped and turned around with a sword.

When Zhuge Gang saw this, Tieguai attacked without thinking.

The force was so great and the momentum so fierce that even sonic booms were emitted continuously in the air.

Zhuge Gang knew that Li Ming's swordsmanship was swift and agile, and he did not dare to confront him head-on.

If you want to defeat your opponent, you must launch a continuous offensive to overwhelm him and not give Li Ming a chance to breathe.

But to his surprise, this time Li Ming did not dodge or evade as usual, and the tip of the sword went straight towards him.

This sudden change made Zhuge Gang's eyelids twitch, as if he sensed something unusual.

At the same time Li Ming drew his sword, his vast internal force, along with the traceless sword intent, surged out and poured into the sword body.

The Nine-Curve Sword suddenly became more powerful, and at the same time, a heart-pounding feeling spread around.

The cold and destructive aura of the Thirteen Deadly Swords directly enveloped Zhuge Gang.

When the Nine-Curve Sword was halfway there, it collided with the Iron Crutch that was crashing down on it.

Amidst the loud metallic sound, the Nine-Curve Sword remained motionless like a mountain, stabbing forward along the predetermined route.

But Zhuge Gang's iron crutch collided with it and broke directly.

With the dual blessing of force and speed, the slanted cut of the iron crutch became extremely smooth and broke into two halves.

"what!"

Zhuge Gang was horrified, but the terrifying power coming from the sword made his arm numb and his palms hurt sharply.

Tieguai, who was always known for his power, almost lost control and threw it away.

The thirteenth sword!

This is the thirteenth sword that Li Ming has infused with the traceless sword intent. With the blessing of true meaning and true energy, the thin sword body can almost break through all obstacles in its way.

Zhuge Gang didn't have time to swing his other iron crutch.

The Nine-Curve Sword had already broken through his protective Qi.

The two figures crossed each other, and Zhuge Gang fell to the ground weakly. His legs went soft and he knelt on the ground.

He looked down at the fatal sword wound and suddenly felt the vitality in his body rapidly draining away.

A feeling of coldness he had never felt before engulfed his mind.

They never expected that even after joining forces, the two of them would both die at the hands of Li Ming.

Moreover, it seems that apart from being at a slight disadvantage at the beginning, the opponent took the opportunity to figure out the martial arts styles of both of them.

Dealing with them is not difficult at all, and it is even obvious that we are still holding back!

Zhuge Gang turned back with difficulty, a look of determination flashing in his eyes.

He suddenly raised his only remaining iron crutch, and using the last bit of his strength, released a burst of energy.

But he was not running towards Li Ming, but towards Yue Qing who had been watching the battle not far away.

Yue Qing was also stunned at this time. He took a few steps back to avoid the range of their fight and stared at it all in a daze.

When Li Ming first appeared, he didn't hold much hope.

But unexpectedly, both of them died at the hands of Li Ming in a matter of seconds!

After Yue Qing was shocked, excitement appeared in his eyes!
Because this means that he may be able to break free from the control of Ji Le Lou and the Money Gang.

I had too much on my mind and was in a daze for a moment.

The energy was coming straight at him at an incredibly fast speed, and Yue Qing's martial arts skills were not very high, so by the time he reacted, it was already impossible to avoid it.

Feeling a chill in his heart, Yue Qing closed his eyes subconsciously.

But after waiting for several breaths and feeling nothing, he finally opened his eyes.

I noticed there was a figure in front of me.

Li Ming stood with a sword in his hand, and at some point he had quickly used his body skills to block in front of him, even faster than Zhuge Gang's energy.

He blocked it easily without hurting Yue Qing at all.

Zhuge Gangqiang held on with all his strength. When he saw this scene, he was so angry that his heart was overwhelmed with a deep sense of unwillingness in his eyes, and he finally fell down.

"The two hall masters are dead!"

The outcome of the battle came faster than anyone imagined.

The warriors around originally wanted to cooperate with the two hall masters to attack Li Ming.

But they failed to accomplish anything, and instead many of them were killed by Li Ming like chopping melons and vegetables.

Now seeing that Zhuge Gang was dead, the last thought of resistance was completely extinguished, and he turned around and wanted to run.

But before they could run a few steps, Li Ming's figure appeared and took their lives easily in a moment.

Although they fled in several different directions, Li Ming's figure was too fast. He completed a circle in the blink of an eye, and came back again, standing in front of Yue Qing.

Facing such a young Li Ming, Yue Qing felt some pressure for the first time and subconsciously took a few steps back.

He didn't know whether the other party was good or evil, and was worried that he would fall into the tiger's mouth just after escaping from the wolf pack.

"You, what are you going to do..."

"Are you Yue Qing?"

Li Ming asked.

Yue Qing didn't expect that the other party could say his name in one sentence. He became even more nervous, but still nodded.

Li Ming confirmed the identity of the person in front of him and looked around.

"It's not a good place to stay for long. Follow me and I'll take you out."

After Li Ming finished speaking, he turned around and was about to raise his foot.

Yue Qing breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he did not force her, but then she gritted her teeth and said to Li Ming.

"Please wait a moment, benefactor. My daughter is still in their hands. If you can lend a hand and rescue her, I will be willing to work like a cow or a horse to repay you."
