Ch71 - Papaya Flavored Senior Brother Gong (9): Cult Leader Gou: Even if I’m a sister-in-law, I’ll be #1

The Martial Arts Conference had finally entered the most exciting final stage of the competition.

"Next match, Tang Nuo in Jiuming Tower versus Situ Bai of Nanshan Sword Sect! Quickly place your bets and leave! "

"Who should I choose?"

"Tang Nuo is the youngest son of Jiuming Tower's leader, so he must know the true teachings! Although he did not participate in the tournament five years ago, he is still a famous person on the Heroes Ranking. His chances of winning are not small. "

"But I heard that Young Master Tang's talent is limited. Compared to his brothers and senior brothers, not only is he not unique, he is also often punished by Sect Leader Tang. On the other hand, Situ Bai is also the son of the Sect Leader, but he has few misdeeds. I heard that his talent is not bad, and he is of the same origin as Sect Leader Situ's sword path, so his strength is not weak. I saw his competition five years ago with my own eyes. Although he is not as amazing as his senior brother, he is still a young hero. I believe that he has improved a lot in these years. I bet that he will win! "

"The bets are closed before the start of the battle. Those who have not placed their bets yet, hurry up!"

The noise outside the arena could be heard from afar.

Situ Bai fanned Gou Liang while looking around bitterly, "I don't care about the others, but that Tang Nuo has already been defeated by me. Senior Brother, Senior Sister, this is a steady money-making business, you should at least come and support me."

Gou Liang was sleeping soundly with his head on Yue Qian's arm. Yue Qian pushed a few strands of hair that had been blown to his face by the wind behind his ear, completely ignoring his third junior brother's resentment.

Cao Gengwu chuckled and said, "My money is all controlled by your sister-in-law, so I don't have enough money."

Situ Bai clearly did not believe it. Lin Xiuniang smiled and said, "Shixiong and Shijie all believe that you will win. Besides … …" Glancing at Gou Liang who was sleeping soundly, she still lowered her voice, "Little Shimei pestered Shifu early in the morning to ask for a hundred taels of silver and have already bet on you."

Situ Bai was finally happy.

He entered the arena full of confidence, but he did not expect that the battle would be so close!

His sword was very fast. Fortunately, his sword was fast enough. Otherwise, if he couldn't see Tang Nuo's hidden weapon and couldn't figure out the path of his attack, he would probably be in an even more difficult situation now.

Gou Liang opened his eyes and looked at the two people fighting and defending in the ring. He frowned slightly.

"What happened?"

Yue Qian asked.

"Who do you think will win this round?"

"It's hard to say who will win."

Even with Yue Qian's eyesight, he could not see through Tang Nuo's weapons and martial arts moves. It could be seen that Tang Nuo's secret stash was really something.

Gou Liang sneered and drank a mouthful of water. Then, he moved closer to Yue Qian's ear and said, "His weapon is the wind. This was a move from the first art of the "Nine Netherworld Arts" … Unfortunately, he had only practiced a superficial form. If your Third Junior Brother persists and exhausts his internal energy, it will be enough to win. "

Yue Qian was shocked. Tower Lord Tang had already said that he had never come into contact with the "Nine Netherworld Arts". Then, where did Tang Nuo's martial arts come from?

"It doesn't matter where it came from. He only has the moves but no mental cultivation method. Forcing himself to practice will cause great harm to his body. If he continues, sooner or later, something will go wrong. " Gou Liang said, "But the Tang family, in order to test me, they even exposed this kind of life-saving move in advance. They really put in a lot of effort."

Yue Qian was worried and sick at heart, "If they continue like this, there will be no end of trouble."

"Then I must ask Hero Yue to practice diligently. If you are invincible in the world, will you be afraid of these people hurting me?"

"Things are hard to predict, but even if I have to risk my life, Xiao Kener, I will protect you."

"You say it so nicely. If you die, won't I be at the mercy of others? It's better to escape early. After this, maybe you can save my life. "

"… I won't take such a risk, and I won't leave you behind."

"It's just a joke. Why are you so serious?" Gou Liang touched his lips, and his eyes were full of laughter. Then he heard the sound of the fight in the arena and said, "Look, Tang Nuo is going to lose."

As he said this, he whispered something in Yue Qian's ear, and the smile in the latter's eyes suddenly disappeared.

A white shadow flashed past, and Yue Qian, dressed in the Nanshan Sword Sect's uniform, landed in the arena. With his internal strength, he dissolved Tang Nuo's final struggle and stood in front of Situ Bai.

Yue Qian said loudly, "The Nanshan Sword Sect admits defeat in this round."

As he said this, he flew down the arena with Situ Bai.

There was an uproar in the audience, and the confused warriors were discussing, "What's going on? Situ Bai was about to win, so why did the Nanshan Sword Sect suddenly admit defeat? "

They saw Yue Qian hurriedly feed Situ Bai the holy medicine of the Nanshan Sword Sect, and then he used his internal strength to regulate his breathing. Not long after, he forced out a mouthful of black blood from Situ Bai's body — he was seriously injured and had been poisoned.

The audience was shocked.

The way everyone looked at Tang Nuo suddenly changed.

Tang Nuo, who was standing in the arena, was also confused, and his face turned red and white. He hurriedly ran down — he definitely did not secretly kill Situ Bai!

Situ Shuang saw that after spitting out the black blood, her brother's face suddenly turned pale. His internal strength was in chaos, and his internal organs were injured. She immediately pushed away He Cong, who had come to check on the situation, and said angrily, "Don't pretend to be kind! Tang Nuo, what did you do to my brother! The son of the Nine Nether Sect's leader is actually so vicious. You can't beat my brother, so you secretly kill him. Despicable! "

Situ Bai was fine just now. If Gou Liang had not seen the clues and Yue Qian had not stopped him, the internal injuries in his body might have broken out, and Situ Bai's life would have been instantly taken.

At that time, not to mention them, even Situ Bai would not know how he died!

Tang Nuo said, "Nonsense! Who knows where he was injured? Don't try to put the blame on me! "

He Cong scolded, "Little Junior Brother, shut up. Junior Sister Situ was anxious. As her Senior Brother, why are you arguing with her?" She then said to the teary-eyed Situ Shuang, "Junior Sister Situ, your Senior Brother Tang is not a vicious person. There must be a misunderstanding here. Right now, Junior Brother Situ's injuries are more important. We can discuss other things later. If there is anything my Nine Nether Tower can help with, we will do our best to help. "

Situ Changtian and the others had also left their seats and rushed over.

Seeing Yue Qian heal Situ Bai's injuries, the sect leaders could naturally see how serious Situ Bai's injuries were. Situ Changtian's brows were tightly knitted, and when Situ Shuang scolded him, he did not say anything to stop her.

Yue Qian's internal strength was deep, and his unending energy caused the wind to howl, making it impossible for people to get within three steps of him and Situ Bai.

Only after another mouthful of black blood was forced out did he stop.

"Senior Brother …"

Situ Bai pressed down on his aching chest and looked at Yue Qian with some unease.

Yue Qian squeezed his shoulder, indicating for him to calm down. Then he looked at Tang Nuo. For some reason, this look made the confident Tang Nuo panic.

Yue Qian did not argue with him. Instead, he looked at Tower Leader Tang and said, "Invisible Intent, Life and Death in the Netherworld. What a powerful technique! But I don't know where Junior Brother Tang learned this technique. If it was used to deal with the Demon Sect, it would be understandable. But on this stage, if you make a move against your fellow disciples, it would be unrighteous and hurt the friendship of our five sects. "

Invisible Intent, Life and Death in the Netherworld.

This was the first sentence of the "Nine Nether Secrets". It meant that one could move according to one's will. Weapons were invisible and formless. Injuring the opponent was not on the surface, but in the invisible internal organs. Even the injured person would not be able to discover it.

But once it exploded, death was certain.

Tower Leader Tang's fingertips trembled.

He took a deep look at Yue Qian and said, "I won't hide it from Senior Martial Brother Situ. I accidentally obtained this martial art a year ago. Although the moves were powerful, they were incompatible with my internal energy cultivation, so I put them aside. Later, my disappointing son took it. I saw that he had some achievements in it, so I did not stop him. But I did not expect that it would be so insidious. It's my fault for not analyzing it and almost causing him to make a big mistake. "

At this time, Northern Plains Sword Sect's Ji Chun finished checking Situ Bai's pulse and said with a heavy expression, "Martial Nephew Situ is injured in the Inner Palace. Although the hidden poison has been forced out by Martial Nephew Yue, he still needs to rest for a few months. He cannot easily use his internal energy. Otherwise … I'm afraid that it will be difficult for his martial arts to improve in the future. "

As soon as this was said, everyone's expression became subtle.

Under everyone's gaze, no matter how angry Tower Leader Tang was, he could not get off the tiger. He could only say, "How could it be so vicious? But I did not think that I would obtain a Demon Sect technique. When I return, I will destroy that technique! Nuo 'er, father did not think this through. In the future, unless you face a Demon Sect disciple, do not use this technique. Do you remember?! "

Tang Nuo's hands were covered in cold sweat as he repeatedly agreed. He looked apologetically at Situ Bai, "Senior Brother Situ, it was my fault for injuring you. If you want to hit or punish me, I will not object."

He really did not know where this technique came from. A year ago, his father passed it to him. When he saw how powerful it was, he treated it like a treasure and practiced it diligently.

This time, he was facing a strong enemy like Situ Bai, so he thought that he could win by surprise. He did not think that it would lead to such a serious consequence.

Situ Bai coughed twice. His face was weak and he could not answer.

Yue Qian expressed his opinion on his behalf and said gently, "Third Brother and I have seen Junior Brother Tang's character. Those who do not know are innocent. As long as Junior Brother Tang is careful when using this technique in the future and does not hurt other disciples, then everything will be fine."

Tang Nuo immediately said, "This broken technique, I have completely forgotten about it! I will never use it again! "

Yue Qian smiled and nodded approvingly.

Situ Shuang saw Yue Qian and Gou Liang leave with Situ Bai. She fiercely glared at Tang Nuo and also chased after them.

After entering the inner courtyard, Gou Liang smiled, "What a good technique to subdue the enemy without fighting. In the future, will the Nine Netherworld Tower dare to use this technique on the Righteous Faction disciples? That Tower Lord Tang finally got a treasure, but you ruined it. I don't know how much he will hate you. "

Yue Qian was not as optimistic as him.

He had heard a bit of the formula of the "Netherworld Nine Secrets" from Gou Liang. Just now, he had probed and found that Tower Lord Tang was not unfamiliar with it.

But how did he get the "Netherworld Nine Secrets"? Was it before or after Gou Liang's family was killed … …

"Brother, are you okay? Such a vicious Tang Nuo. I don't believe that he did not know the power of this technique! "

Situ Shuang's heart was filled with hatred.

On the contrary, Situ Bai shook his head, "I traveled with Tang Nuo. If He Cong wanted to harm him, I would believe it, but he might not. This time, it should be an accident. "

"I don't care what accident it is. He almost took your little life and you're still speaking up for him!"

Situ Shuang was angry at him for not living up to her expectations.

Situ Bai saw that her tears were about to fall and felt some heartache. He was about to comfort her when he heard Gou Liang say, "Give me your hand."

He looked at Yue Qian and quickly raised his hand.

Gou Liang checked his pulse and then smiled, "Although Tang Nuo's martial arts is not perfect, the effect is not discounted."

He pulled out several thin silver needles from his belt and inserted them into Situ Bai's fingers. With a slight twist, Situ Bai groaned in pain and his entire face scrunched up.

Yue Qian and Situ Shuang both became nervous.

"It's good that it hurts." Gou Liang casually said, "The ten fingers are connected to the heart. Your heart is damaged and if it is not treated in time, it will be like what Ji Chun said. If you want to practice martial arts in the future, it will be difficult."

Situ Bai quickly said, "What should we do?"

Although he did not practice martial arts wholeheartedly, it did not mean that he was willing to be mediocre and not improve.

"What are you afraid of? It's just a small injury."

Gou Liang had him take off his clothes and then inserted the needles into Situ Bai's body. He also had him circulate his qi. Not long after, Situ Bai's ten fingers that had been pierced by Gou Liang had black drops of blood being forced out.

Gou Liang put the blood in a small porcelain bottle and then put away the needles.

In less than half an hour, Situ Bai's pale face had returned to normal. He stood up and rubbed his chest that was still in pain. He tried out his moves and was immediately pleasantly surprised, "Sister-in-law, you're amazing! I feel very good now, I don't feel bad at all! "

Situ Shuang was already full of worship as she held her heart with both hands, "Sister-in-law, you're amazing!"

Yue Qian was also very surprised, but seeing Gou Liang's indifferent appearance, it was as if he was making a fuss about nothing. He coughed and suppressed his joy.

Situ Bai said, "Sister-in-law, then can I practice martial arts tomorrow? Or is it really like martial uncle Ji Chun said, that I have to rest for a few months? "

Gou Liang said, "Up to you. However, before the martial arts convention ends, you have to obediently stay in your room and pretend to be weak. Do you understand? "

Situ Bai heard this and thought that he did not want to expose his medical skills, so he naturally agreed.

Situ Shuang watched as Gou Liang carefully put away the black blood he had just collected. She asked him curiously, "Sister-in-law, what do you want this blood for?"

"Heart Burning Blood, it's naturally used to make poison."

Seeing him act like he had obtained a rare treasure, not to mention the Situ siblings who felt a chill run down their backs, even Yue Qian felt his scalp go numb.

At night, Situ Changtian hurried back with his two disciples. They were very surprised to see Situ Bai jumping around and eating happily.

Situ Shuang explained the whole story in a few words and then praised Gou Liang's medical skills. She felt that her words could not express even a fraction of her respect for Gou Liang.

Situ Changtian was overjoyed as he solemnly said, "Thank you miss Ye for saving my son's life."

Before Gou Liang could reply, Yue Qian smiled and said, "Master, you're too distant. In the future, third junior brother will also be Ye Gui's family. There's no need for such formalities between family members. "

Situ Changtian laughed loudly as he patted his eldest disciple's shoulder and said, "You little brat, you've done well. You've never disappointed me since you were little. The wife you married is also extraordinary. Not bad, not bad!"

Cao Gengwu and the others laughed when they saw this.

Gou Liang didn't let go of this great opportunity. That day, he wrote out a prescription, which contained extremely rare medicines. He had Yue Qian go to all the major medicine stores to inquire about the source of the medicines, and also buy information about these medicines that only appeared once in a hundred years from the Hundred Dawns Building.

On the prescription, fifty to sixty percent of them were hidden treasures from the Nine Netherworld Tower. They wanted him to bleed.

Sure enough, the next day, He Cong and Tang Nuo brought a few of the rare medicines to him. They apologized humbly and said that they would help collect the rest of the medicines.

Who would have thought that the South Mountain Sword Sect, which had always been open and honest, would play such a trick?

Although the Nine Netherworld Tower was heartbroken, the Hundred Breakthroughs Building was omniscient and could easily find out that the Nine Netherworld Tower had these medicines. They were in the wrong and were trying their best to make up for it. Naturally, they could not hold on to these worldly possessions.

Gou Liang had obtained these treasures for no reason and was afraid that the Nine Netherworld Tower would snatch them back. He immediately went into seclusion to refine these treasures into medicine.

On this day, Gou Liang, who had completely lost interest in the martial arts competition, was still in his room developing life-saving pills. Suddenly, he heard the system excitedly interrupt the broadcast.

[System: Master, there's a situation!]

[Gou Liang: Hmm?]

[System: The Northern Plains Sword Sect's Sect Master and the Demon Sect's Left Protector have met!]

Gou Liang was shocked and stopped concocting medicine.

He saw that the Left Protector and Northern Plains' Chief Xia were in a standoff. The Left Protector was completely on guard while Chief Xia was in disguise. If not for the system's identification, Gou Liang would not have recognized him.

Chief Xia clasped his hands behind his back and said, "Bao San, we haven't seen each other for only a year. You can't even recognize your master?"

The Left Protector's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he questioned, "Everyone knows that my master has died at Bao Jiu's hands. Who are you?"

Chief Xia sneered, "He wants to kill me? I'm afraid that by now, he has already gone mad and lost all his internal energy. "

The Left Protector no longer had any doubts and knelt down in panic, "Master, Bao San has eyes but failed to see. Please forgive your disciple this time."

Chief Xia said, "Since I've shown myself to you, I won't take your life."

The Left Protector let out a sigh of relief and asked, "Since master didn't let Bao Jiu succeed, why did you let that traitor take the position of Sect Master?"

"Bao Shi made too many enemies. It's good that he died. After all, there are many things that Bao Shi can't do with his status. But you, what are you doing here instead of guarding the Main Altar? "

"Replying to master, your disciple came here to chase after Bao Jiu. Now that he has lost all his martial arts, your disciple wants to kill him to avenge master! I didn't think that he would be so cunning and mix in with the Righteous Sect, making your subordinate unable to make a move. "

"Oh, Bao Jiu is also here? Who is it? "

"It's that cross-dressing Ye Gui!"

"… It's actually him."

Not knowing what he was thinking, Chief Xia sneered and said, "He came at the right time. He actually dared to injure me while I was cultivating."

He gave the Left Protector a few words. The Left Protector's face lit up with joy as he accepted the order and left.

Seeing this, Gou Liang slightly narrowed his eyes. Not only did Bao Shi not die, he also became the Sect Master of the Northern Plains Sect. Unexpectedly, no one saw through him … this was really interesting.

*

On the second night, a scream broke the silence.

Mo Guanju was dead.

The Northern Plains Sect disciples who witnessed it only had time to see a flash of red.
