Chapter 199 So young, yet so arrogant!
Chapter 199 So young, yet so arrogant!
As soon as Xiao Qiuyu uttered these arrogant words, the dilapidated temple fell into complete silence.
Huhuhu......
For a moment, only the breathing of Wan Zhenshan and his two companions and the sound of the wind coming from outside the door could be heard.
Looking at the spirited Xiao Qiuyu beside him,
A barely perceptible change of expression flashed across the faces of Wan Zhenshan and the other two.
Thoughts began to race through my mind.
What are you pretending to be, a late-stage innate being?!
If it weren't for the three of us poisoning him, that old bastard Mei Niansheng would have lost even a tenth of his martial arts skills.
Who gave you the right to spout such nonsense!
If you, Xiao Qiuyu, dared to say such things to Mei Niansheng's face when he was in a normal state,
Among the three of us brothers, you're the only one with guts.
You're done once you see whether this old man is real or not!
Don't let Mei Niansheng's kind face fool you; he's got a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
The reputation of Iron Bones and Ink Calyx is not just for show!
That was something Mei Niansheng had earned through decades of hard work, punishing evil and upholding justice.
I heard that he even fought against the number one evil demon in the world, the invincible Gu Santong!
Otherwise, the three of them wouldn't have shamelessly gone to become Mei Niansheng's disciples.
Now, after all that trouble the three of them went to to poison him,
Now I've actually been outsmarted by Xiao Qiuyu, it's really damn annoying!
......
"Young man, you really don't know your own limitations!"
"You want to step over my dead body to reach the Grandmaster level? You have some nerve! I just hope you don't die by my hand!"
Upon hearing Xiao Qiuyu's words,
Mei Niansheng's eyes instantly turned several times colder.
When he heard that Xiao Qiuyu wanted to climb to power over his dead body...
Anger rose in my heart. These village brats are really bullying me because I'm old and weak!
It seems we need to teach Xiao Qiuyu a lesson about the principle that a grandmaster cannot be insulted!
Even a poisoned grandmaster is still a grandmaster.
He had been hiding all this time not because he was afraid of Xiao Qiuyu, who was only at the late stage of the Innate Realm.
Instead, they were wary of the behemoth behind Xiao Qiuyu—the Green Robe Tower!
But if Xiao Qiuyu dares to underestimate him like this,
He would risk internal injuries to exchange for Xiao Qiuyu and his three traitorous disciples!
As for whether they can withstand the assassins from the Green Robe Tower in the future, we'll see.
If we can't even get past this hurdle, there's no point in talking about the future.
Xiao Qiuyu looked at Mei Niansheng, whose temperament had suddenly changed, and smiled slightly.
"I'm sure I won't disappoint Master Mei; time is running out."
May you rest in peace, Master Mei! This junior will now see you off on your journey!
The moment she finished speaking, a fierce killing intent flashed in Xiao Qiuyu's smiling eyes.
Then, his toes lightly touched the ground.
His entire body shot out again, heading straight for Mei Niansheng!
In an instant, Mei Niansheng felt a sharp aura pressing down on him.
Then, out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of a bright, straight line.
Like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves, it pierced towards him with incredible speed.
Xiao Qiuyu's swordplay was sharp and intimidating; even before he got close,
The chill emanating from his sword strikes was already making his skin feel slightly cold.
What surprised Mei Niansheng the most was that Xiao Qiuyu's sword technique contained something unexpected!
Sword intent!
Xiao Qiuyu's sword—
It actually contained a trace of sword intent...
Although this wisp of sword intent is not yet fully developed.
But even an immature sword intent is still a sword intent...
This also means that Xiao Qiuyu has truly begun to meet the requirements for becoming a Grandmaster.
The autumn wind and rain bring sorrow.
Xiao Qiuyu's sword intent is the same as his name.
It was a sword intent imbued with deep sorrow.
There is a sense of loss and melancholy that has been associated with autumn since ancient times.
It makes one unconsciously want to be like a fallen leaf, carried away by the autumn wind!
So much so that the moment the sword intent appeared,
Even Mei Niansheng was shaken, and her thoughts were slightly slowed down.
However, Mei Niansheng was, after all, a veteran master, and also possessed the unique skill of the Divine Illumination Scripture.
He was suddenly jolted awake the instant he was affected by the sword intent.
At the same time, an undisguised admiration flashed in his eyes.
Even though they are now rivals, he has to admit that...
Although Xiao Qiuyu is arrogant, he truly has the makings of a grandmaster!
Barring any unforeseen circumstances, becoming a Grandmaster will be a certainty in a few years.
After realizing Xiao Qiuyu's true strength,
Mei Niansheng admitted that she had underestimated Xiao Qiuyu before, and then she had no more hesitation!
Xiao Qiuyu is someone he needs to take seriously now.
Otherwise, I'm afraid they might actually succeed in defeating a Grandmaster!
If that were the case, I'm afraid the name "Iron Bones and Ink Calyx" would be nailed to the pillar of shame among martial arts masters for the rest of their lives.
How can this be allowed? Mei Niansheng has been strong-willed his whole life!
It's true that the martial arts world will belong to you young people in the future, but for now it still belongs to us old folks!
Thinking of this,
Mei Niansheng took a deep breath, a resolute glint in her eyes.
He immediately activated the Divine Illumination Scripture to its highest level!
Set up an imperceptible wall of true energy around yourself!
In the blink of an eye, just as Mei Niansheng released her true energy to form a wall...
The next moment, Xiao Qiuyu's sword was already in front of him!
A cold, icy sword light, like autumn wind and rain, accompanied by sword intent, instantly struck Mei Niansheng's true qi wall.
The sword light stirred up ripples the moment it touched the wall of true energy.
Xiao Qiuyu's seemingly invincible sword light could not break through the defense set up by Mei Niansheng using the Divine Illumination Scripture True Qi.
"Hmm? What a fine Iron-Boned Ink Calyx!"
Upon seeing this, Xiao Qiuyu's eyes suddenly flashed with a sharp light!
I never expected Mei Niansheng to still have such strength at a time like this.
As expected of a Grandmaster-level expert!
Even after being poisoned by his apprentice and then being hunted down for thousands of miles,
Even now, he still has the strength to block my sword!
It's unbelievable how strong they were at their peak!
But only in this way does it become somewhat interesting.
If Mei Niansheng is completely powerless to fight back, wouldn't this trip be incredibly boring?
He felt his blood boiling, eager to savor the joy of defeating a grandmaster after a difficult victory.
Thinking of this, Xiao Qiuyu suddenly withdrew his sword and turned around to prepare for another strike!
Meanwhile, Mei Niansheng, standing to the side, had an abundance of experience in martial arts combat that was simply beyond counting.
How could we let such a good opportunity slip by?
Seize the fleeting opportunity presented by Xiao Qiuyu withdrawing his sword.
He immediately formed a sword with his fingers and pointed it out, the true energy gathered at his fingertips instantly erupting.
It directly hits Xiao Qiuyu's Achilles' heel!
Xiao Qiuyu reacted quickly, immediately changing his sword stance and blocking in front of him.
The next moment, Mei Niansheng's sword finger struck the sword like a small sun!
Clang... The swords clashed, producing a sound like metal striking metal.
A look of seriousness flashed across Xiao Qiuyu's brows. He directly used the force of the collision...
He flipped backward in mid-air, drifting back more than ten feet, before finally dissipating the impact on the trembling sword.
"awesome!"
"Senior Mei truly lives up to his reputation as a veteran master; his true energy is incredibly powerful!"
Xiao Qiuyu looked down at the still trembling sword, her arm trembling slightly, and her smile gradually turned cold and stern.
