Chapter 142: No one on the island, pure sword intent

Lingshe Island is located within the Ming Dynasty's South China Sea.

The reason why it is named this is not because there are many vicious miasma and poisonous snakes on the island. On the contrary, it is an island with very beautiful scenery.

The reason for this name is purely because of the shape of Lingshe Island. Looking from above, it resembles a long snake hovering and poking its head out of the sea.

"Grandma, Grandma, we are back."

As soon as the ship docked, the first person to go to the island was the anxious Yin Li.

He even used his lightness skills to pounce towards the place where Daiqisi was hiding before leaving.

Gao Changsheng and others followed her slowly.

But compared to Yin Li's excitement.

Gao Changsheng had no expression on his face at all times.

It was simple, he didn't sense anyone's presence on the island.

From Daming to Liyang and back again.

The time spent during this period is really too long.

In fact, Gao Changsheng had already anticipated this.

If it were just those Persian people in the original novel, with the combined efforts of Daiqisi and Xie Xun, perhaps relying on the terrain of the island, they would have a chance to delay time.

But from Yin Li's words, it was obvious that it was not only the Persians who came to Daiqisi.

If it were according to the original novel, Zhang Wuji would happen to come to the island and help her overcome the difficulties.

But this world is clearly different.

When he was with Lu Xiaofeng before, the two of them had chatted together.

In this world, the major sects in the Central Plains have not yet besieged the Ming Cult, also known as the Zoroastrianism.

Therefore, Daiqisi's search for Xie Xun actually deviates from the timeline of the original novel.

Moreover, in this world, Zhang Wuji was not forced to leave Wudang because of the cold poison.

From the previous experience of meeting Zhang Sanfeng, we can know that Zhang Sanfeng has snatched the phoenix blood from Xu Fu more than once.

With the help of the phoenix blood, the cold poison of the Mysterious Nether Divine Palm was naturally solved.

Moreover, Gao Changsheng even suspected that Zhang Cuishan and his wife, who committed suicide on Mount Wudang, were not really dead.

Because when Zhang Sanfeng was chatting, when he mentioned Xu Fu's Sacred Heart Secret, his expression was indeed a bit ambiguous.

Therefore, Gao Changsheng was very suspicious that what Zhang Sanfeng stole from Xu Fu was probably not just the phoenix blood.

Gao Changsheng knew the additional functions of the Sacred Heart Sutra better than anyone else.

Of course, Gao Changsheng was just guessing about this. Perhaps Zhang Sanfeng was just sighing at that time.

But if it is true, then the plot will undoubtedly change more drastically.

If Zhang Cuishan and his wife had not died, the possibility of Zhang Wuji's involvement in Zoroastrianism would have been even smaller.

Even Wudang might not necessarily participate in the siege of Zoroastrianism.

Given that the timeline and plot are different from the original novel, it is absolutely impossible for Zhang Wuji to suddenly come to the Spirit Snake Island.

The outcome for Daiqisi and Xie Xun can be imagined.

Sure enough, as Yin Li moved forward, he soon led a few people to a wooden house in the dense forest.

But it was obvious that there was no one in the cabin.

Only on the bumpy ground around were there traces of blood that had long since dried and turned black.

"Come, it's too late..."

At this point, even a fool could tell what was going on.

They came late.

Daiqisi and Xie Xun had already been defeated, but it was unknown whether they died directly or were captured by the other side.

"It looks like a big battle took place here."

Nangong Pushe frowned and spoke.

Everything in the field was extremely chaotic, with traces of fighting everywhere.

One could even faintly feel the fluctuations of the remaining true energy.

"Such strong sword and knife intentions."

"It hasn't dispersed after such a long time. The one who did it must be a top master."

Nangong Pushe gently stretched out his hand, brushed across the traces left on the trees, and sighed.

"Zhu'er, did you see who attacked you?"

Nangong Pushe asked.

The two also communicated on the boat these days.

Nangong Pushe had some understanding of the strength of Daiqisi and the other Xie Xun she mentioned.

Daiqisi's strength is not that strong, at most she is just a beginner grandmaster.

The strength of the other Xie Xun is quite good. Although he has not reached the level of Grand Master, he can be considered an expert among the Grand Masters.

It’s a pity that his eyes are no longer visible, and his strength has been at least halved.

If the two masters were placed somewhere else, they would be considered pretty good.

But at this moment, just through the remaining breath, Nangong Pushe could be sure that the two were no match for him.

Especially the faint sword intent that remained in the field, even if it was about to dissipate, it could still make people tremble.

It is so pure and so sharp.

If such a master had taken action at the first moment, the two would have no chance of escaping, and it would not even be possible for Zhu'er to escape and report the news.

"No, I don't know."

"I only heard from my mother-in-law that it was something like the Three Envoys and the Treasure Tree King."

Yin Li had already lost the ability to think at this time, and when he heard Nangong Pushe's question, he could only answer as possible.

"Oh yeah, I heard from Xie Xun that he also sensed a strange aura, and he said it sounded like a ninja swordsman or something like that."

"Later, my mother-in-law asked me to leave quickly through the small road and report the news."

"Ninja?" Nangong Pushe frowned.

Gao Changsheng did not listen to what the two said. With Yin Li's strength and intelligence, it was impossible for her to know too much, so asking her would be pointless.

He took a step forward and gently ran his palm across the branches.

He grasped a wisp of invisible sword intent between his two fingers.

"Such a strong sword intention, this must be a peerless swordsman."

Nangong Pushe couldn't help but sigh.

The sword art of Li Yang martial arts is extremely prosperous.

After all, there was a peerless sword god Li Chungang.

After Li Chungang, various swordsmen emerged one after another.

But in Nangong Pushe's impression, he had never seen such sword intent.

It doesn't just mean that it's powerful, but that the sword intent in Gao Changsheng's hand is so pure.

Li Chungang, she didn’t know, the time was too long ago.

But in recent times, Deng Tai'a, Jian Jiuhuang and others seemed to be inferior to her.

This kind of comparison does not refer to strength, but only to the artistic conception of kendo.

After all, Deng Tai'a chose the path of practicing skills first and then seeking the Tao. His sword moves and killing sword techniques had long reached the point where his skills were close to the Tao. In terms of sword techniques alone, he could be ranked among the best in the world.

As for Jian Jiuhuang, although he was stunning when he first appeared, he suddenly disappeared after being defeated by Wang Xianzhi and there has been no news of him since.

Looking back at the sword intent in Gao Changsheng's hand, Nangong Pushe could not think of any other words and could only describe it as stunning.

Looking at Gao Changsheng with the sword in his hand, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"It's really interesting..."

"Do you know who made the move?" Nangong Pushe asked.

Yin Li looked up immediately when he heard the voice, revealing an expectant look.

"I have a guess."

Gao Changsheng snapped his fingers and threw the sword in his hand.

"The people fighting in the arena are not Daiqisi and Xie Xun. They should have lost their ability to fight long ago."

"One of the parties fighting here is the group Yin Li mentioned, and their opponent is another party, which is the third party to arrive."

"Is this the man who wields the sword?" Nangong Pushe asked.

"Yes, the Dragon Slaying Sword is very attractive. Even this person was lured out." Gao Changsheng chuckled.

"Then, mother-in-law..." Yin Li said worriedly.

"He shouldn't be dead for now. He came here to ask for a knife. If he kills someone, he won't take the body away."

"As for who exactly got it, I can't tell for now. It's been too long and all the specific traces have almost disappeared."

Gao Changsheng explained casually.

After saying this, he sighed again:

"I should have brought Lu Xiaofeng along earlier. He is the best person to do this kind of laborious task."

Gao Changsheng shook his head. This time, because it was a spur-of-the-moment decision, he really forgot about Lu Xiaofeng. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaofeng, who wanted to return to the Ming Dynasty, never got his wish. Instead, he entered the Ming Dynasty first.

What Gao Changsheng didn't know was that just as he sighed softly.

Somewhere in the Great Sui Dynasty, a man who was chatting and laughing with someone suddenly felt his heart twitch, as if he had suddenly lost something.

In the restaurant, Gao Changsheng and his group walked in.

The Eighteen Riders of Yanyun stood outside the restaurant in a line.

Li Yuanba carried a sledgehammer and followed the few people.

This group of people with great visual impact instantly attracted the attention of everyone in the building.

For a moment, all eyes fell on a few people.

They did not stay on the Spirit Snake Island for too long. After all, there was nothing on the island except some remaining traces that were about to disappear.

Staying on the island would just be a waste of time.

After leaving the island, several people landed in the nearest city.

Although Yin Li was so anxious that his eyes were bleeding, Gao Changsheng did not take any action or investigate immediately.

Instead, he took a few people directly to the largest restaurant in the city.

Yin Li didn't dare to express any opinion on this.

Of course, Gao Changsheng wouldn't care about the other party's opinion.

In his eyes, Yin Li was of no use other than being a native of the Ming Dynasty and being a little familiar with certain situations.

In terms of strength, she only knows the Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands, and is not even a small minion.

Any one of the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun could deal with her.

You have to know that the Eighteen Riders of Yanyun were at the third level of Qi and blood, approaching the fourth level. You have to know that the fourth level of Qi and blood is already equivalent to the innate realm of a warrior.

Coupled with the murderous aura that roams the battlefield, if he doesn't form a battle array, he may not be able to match the real masters in a one-on-one fight, but dealing with a small fry like Yin Li is definitely easy and enjoyable.

As for things like intelligence and talent, Gao Changsheng could only laugh.

How smart can someone be who chooses to practice a martial art like Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands?

You have to know that this is a comprehensive world with countless magical skills and unique martial arts. Even if Yin Li cannot find the top-level martial arts in his situation, it is definitely not difficult to find one that is better than the Thousand Spiders and Ten Thousand Poisonous Hands.

So, all along, he never paid any attention to Yin Li.

He is not a moralist who never gets close to women, but he is definitely not the kind of person who can't walk when he sees a woman.

He did not expect women or even his subordinates to be stronger than him. After all, with his progress, there would be fewer and fewer people who were stronger than him.

But at least it has to be useful, not just a vase.

"sit down."

Gao Changsheng picked a quiet table at random and invited Nangong Pushe and Li Yuanba to sit down together.

The people in the restaurant who had watched them all the way to their seats, when they noticed that they did not show anything special, they all withdrew their gazes.

After all, there are all kinds of strange things in the world, and if there is no real excitement to watch, it can only attract temporary attention at most.

"Have you heard? Cao Zhengchun from the East Factory has already led a large group of people to Longchang Post Station to welcome Saint Yangming to the capital."

After turning his gaze back, discussions soon broke out in the restaurant.

As soon as he opened his mouth, it was not beyond Gao Changsheng's expectations that the person who spoke was the biggest excitement recently, the new saint king Yangming of the Ming Dynasty.

"Humph, Mr. Yangming is a saint who has achieved three immortality. How can a eunuch like Cao Zhengchun be qualified to welcome him?"

As soon as Cao Zhengchun's name came out, shouts of scolding were heard in the field.

Obviously, even in a different world, Cao Zhengchun would still be a hated person.

"Hush...brother, be careful with your words." A voice of advice came quickly from the side.

Although Cao Zhengchun had a bad reputation, the East Factory's bad reputation was truly earned through killing.

The Eastern Depot's spies are spread all over the Ming Dynasty. It is very likely that the person sitting next to you when you speak is a spy from the Eastern Depot.

Therefore, ordinary warriors, no matter how dissatisfied they were, did not dare to speak ill of Cao Zhengchun openly.

"Humph, what are you afraid of? No matter how powerful the East Factory is, can it really cover the sky with one hand? Even in the court, there are still people like Tiedan Shenhou who are enough to compete with him."

"This is even more so in the martial arts world. No matter how powerful the Eastern Depot is, can it really control the entire martial arts world?" The person who spoke was not afraid at all.

"Hehe, my brother-in-law is a Wudang disciple. With Master Zhang here, even if Cao Zhengchun has a few more guts, he wouldn't dare to act presumptuously."

When these words were spoken, the people around him stood in awe.

The Wudang sect, because of Zhang Sanfeng, is a true top giant.

Being associated with this faction is enough to make many people in awe.

Gao Changsheng in the distance also smiled slightly.

In this life, Wudang is much more famous because of Zhang Sanfeng's strength.

I had just entered Ming and heard this familiar name after just a few words.

"What should we do next? We are unfamiliar with the place and it may be difficult to investigate." Nangong Pushe said softly.

Although Gao Changsheng has discovered some clues.

But in the Ming Dynasty, they were pure outsiders, with no sources of information, let alone intelligence spies.

Not to mention that it is just an unconfirmed clue. Even if the other party's identity has been confirmed, it is very difficult to find the real target without specific intelligence.

Having said that, Nangong Pushe couldn't help but glance at Yin Li.

Speaking of which, the other party is from the Ming Dynasty, but it seems to be of no use at all.

There are no acquaintances, let alone any friends I know.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have traveled a long distance to Liyang for help.

Even if this was instructed by Daiqisi, a normal person, if really seeking help, would definitely go to familiar forces first.

Yin Li didn't know that Nangong Pushe was complaining about her in his heart. Since she sat down, she had been staring blankly, looking uneasy.

In fact, Nangong Pushe didn't know that Yin Li was not without power. On the contrary, it was quite powerful. She just couldn't contact him.

Compared to the other two, Gao Changsheng was not nervous at all.

He is not Yin Li. Daiqisi is just a subordinate he casually recruited, and she didn't even do anything for him.

Even if something really happened to the other party, Gao Changsheng wouldn't care too much.

As for the Dragon Slaying Sword, it would be great if he could get it to set off the fireworks, but even if he couldn't get it, it wouldn't have any impact on Gao Changsheng.

What's more, Nangong Pushe was wrong about one thing. She thought Gao Changsheng only had a few clues. After all, in everyone's eyes, it was his first time to come to Ming Dynasty.

But in fact, Gao Changsheng already had a rough outline in his mind, and even had a suspected target.

The reason I didn't take action immediately was that I was considering how to do it and there were other things to do.

After all, this world is not a single world, and the Ming Dynasty also integrates characters from many worlds.

The fusion and intermingling of various worlds will inevitably influence each other.

Just like the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber represented by Zhang Wuji, it has completely changed now, which is a proof.

Therefore, even if some things need to be done, other impacts should be considered.

After all, the one who takes action may be a single individual, but it is very likely to attract a large group of forces.

What's more, Gao Changsheng came here seemingly just for Daiqisi and the Dragon Slaying Sword, but in fact he had other purposes.

"Hey, what this brother said is actually right. Although Cao Zhengchun represents His Majesty, in my opinion, even if His Majesty is not suitable to come forward, it is better to let Tiedan Shenhou go. He is both an important minister and a member of the royal family. This is the respect for the saint."

"Yes, that makes sense."

Everyone agreed.

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. The birth of a new saint is a great joyous event. Don't let a castrated dog ruin your mood." The man who said he had a Wudang background said loudly.

"Brother, I heard you said it has something to do with Wudang Mountain. It is said that something happened in Wudang recently?" another person asked.

As soon as he finished speaking, a look of confusion instantly appeared on the man's face.

What could possibly happen on Mount Wudang? Ever since the incident, Wudang has always been as stable as a rock, not to mention that there is Master Zhang in charge.

"Hey, that thing you're talking about, I know, it has nothing to do with the Wudang Sect." Another person next to him laughed.

"Oh? What's the matter?" someone asked soon.

"This matter is related to the four-eyebrowed Lu Xiaofeng."

"It is said that some time ago, Lu Xiaofeng was hunted down for some unknown reason and disappeared from the martial arts world. It is said that he is very likely dead."

"What? Who did it?" Several people exclaimed.

"It is unknown how many people there are, but it seems that Palace Master Yao Yue of Yihua Palace has taken action before."

"As everyone knows, Lu Xiaofeng has always had a lot of friends. After he got into trouble, Ximen Chuxue went straight to Yihua Palace and had a big fight with Yaoyue in Xiuyu Valley."

"The Wudang you are talking about should be Lu Xiaofeng's friend Mu Dao Ren. He was also invited by Hua Man Lou to join the fight."

"Hiss... Lu Xiaofeng's friends gathered together. This force is not weak." Someone in the field exclaimed.

You know, Lu Xiaofeng is a person who can make friends with both Wudang disciples and Shaolin monks at the same time.

If his friends really gathered together, Yihua Palace would be in danger.

"That's right, but Palace Master Yao Yue has always been strong and she won't give in. I think there will definitely be a battle in the end."

"I know about this. Just two days ago, the Sun Moon Sect took action. The leader, Dongfang Bubai, personally came out to help the Yihua Palace.

"this……
