Chapter 469 It’s This Psychopath?
When Ding Hao took Zhang Fan to the stone bed, the young hunter felt stunned for a moment, and immediately said in a deep voice, “Who did it?”
For many former disciples of the Eastern Academy of Green s.h.i.+rts, Ximen Qianxue was a fairy. Almost everyone had been taught by that gentle and patient teacher. Maybe many people didn’t like the knowledge of elixir herbs, but they all deeply admired Ximen as a teacher.
Zhang Fan, in particular, had a poor talent in martial arts and was dull and reticent. Therefore, many other teachers didn’t like him. Only in the elixir herbs aspect, Zhang Fan showed a high talent. His steadfast and serious style was appreciated by Ximen Qianxue. She praised him many times…
In Zhang Fan’s memory of the Swordsmans.h.i.+p-seeking Sect, there were two s.h.i.+ning fragments, one was Ding Hao, and the other was Ximen Qianxue.
Unexpectedly, when they met again, Ximen Qianxue, the teacher whom he respected, was in such a bad condition.
Ding Hao didn’t hide what had happened there either. He told Zhang Fan everything in detail.
“Duan De … He was lucky to have died early. ” Zhang Fan’s voice was heavy enough to wring out water. He opened his eyes like a sharp knife. He said one word at a time, “OK, the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmans.h.i.+p Sect, I’ve committed this name to memory.”
Ding Hao felt stifled for a while.
At that moment, Zhang Fan radiated a very dangerous atmosphere, as if he were a magic sabre that was suddenly s.h.i.+nning with a peerless light.
After such a long time, the former submissive and taciturn hunter boy had finally changed. Not only had his strength improved, but also his character had become sharp. When he spoke, he showed a kind of confidence and domineering spirit that he never had before. Maybe in the past, more than a year before, he had experienced a lot of hards.h.i.+ps in the line dividing life and death, and had experienced cruelty in the cold world with the survival of the strong and the fittest.
Ding Hao suddenly felt that he was unqualified to be Zhang Fan’s friend.
Because Ding Hao didn’t know what Zhang Fan had experienced in the recent span of more than a year.
Patting Zhang Fan gently on the shoulder, Ding Hao said, “You came just in time, Ning Huxiao is still outside the city. I’m trying to get him to come out, let’s find a chance to kill him.”
Zhang Fan nodded heavily. “I will listen to my senior martial brother.”
No matter what had happened to him, the only constant thing for the young hunter was his trust and wors.h.i.+p toward Ding Hao. If Ding Hao would ask him to die at that time, Zhang Fan would not hesitate to go through fire and water.
When Ding Hao and Zhang Fan were talking, Ai Qing’s fl.u.s.tering voice was suddenly heard from outside.
“Master, master, a disaster is imminent. A disaster is imminent…”
Ding Hao frowned slightly, and then exited with Zhang Fan tagging along.
Ai Qing was hurried and frightened. He ran over and said in a trembling voice, “Someone… Someone… Someone broke into the city. It is… It’s not only Ning Huxiao’s helper, but also the Blue Cloud… This time… We’re all finished…”
“Don’t panic! Ning Huxiao himself doesn’t dare to come, and his subordinates are nothing to be afraid of,” said Ding Hao, “It’s just the right time for him to come. It’s not necessary for me to get them out like digging a hole for rats.”
Before he finished what he said…
“Bang-bang-bang!”
Applause came from afar.
It was seen that a handsome young man in a blue robe, who was elegant and dignified, was approaching. He walked step by step from a distance.
He was about twenty years old. His skin was white as a woman’s. As he walked, he clapped his hands gently. He smiled jokingly and said, “OK, well-said. It seems that what Ning Huxiao told me was true. You are really arrogant to the extreme. You’re threatening to sweep all the talents in the Northern Region. You don’t even take our Blue Cloud Sect seriously. Well, to be honest. For many years I haven’t met anybody like you, who doesn’t know why he should be killed. It seems that Ning Huxiao is right. You are arrogant to the extreme.”
“Is this a psychopath?” Ding Hao took a look at Ai Qing.
“Yes, yes. He is…” Ai Qing seemed to be extremely terrified of the young man.
“Are you the traitor of the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmans.h.i.+p Sect? As expected, you’re lewd and mean. Ha ha, those old men in the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmans.h.i.+p Sect are pretentious. They think they have the best skill for controlling the Sect. They’ve been trying to win against the first sword sect in the Sword Province. The disciples they taught were such mean traitors… ” Speaking of that, the gorgeous young man looked at Ding Hao and Zhang Fan. With a domineering expression, he smiled even more disdainfully. He said, “And he was taken in by two humble people from the frontier fortresses. He really lost the face of all sword cultivators in the Sword Province.”
Ai Qing was quite humiliated, but he just lowered his head and didn’t dare say anything.
“Well, tell these two savages who I am,” the gorgeous young man told Ai Qing.
“Yes, yes…” Ai Qing didn’t dare answer back. He approached Ding Hao’s ear and whispered, “Master, he’s Lin Tianyu, a disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect in the Green Province. He is the last of the Twelve Talents in the Green Province, and one of the geniuses in the List of Hidden Dragons in the Green Province. The giant beast is already a master at the Martial Emperor realm, and his strength is still above Ning Huxiao’s…”
“The Green Province?”
“The largest province in the Northern Region?”
Ding Hao got to know that the Green Province’s territory was almost a quarter of the whole Northern Region, which was majestic. The area of the Green Province was larger than that of a hundred Snow Provinces. In such a province, there were hidden dragons, crouching tigers and countless masters. It was completely possible for the Green Province to have some amazing and outstanding talents.
Although Ding Hao hadn’t yet heard about the reputation of the Twelve Talents in the Snow Province, from Ai Qing’s panic expression, he thought that Lin Tianyu’s was really not simple.
“Now, boy, do you know who I am?” Lin Tianyu showed the pride on his face.
He was expecting Ding Hao and the others’ panicked expressions to admit their defeat.
But—
“Xiaofan, please defeat him for me. Teacher Ximen needs a quiet atmosphere to recover.” Ding Hao casually waved, then turned around to go back to the main hall. He had a lot of things to do; he didn’t have time to pay attention to those superior talents of other provinces who acted recklessly and blindly, only knowing how to show off their sense of superiority.
Zhang Fan nodded and walked toward Lin Tianyu step by step.
Lin Tianyu’s proud smile solidified on his face and soon turned it into anger.
Half an hour later.
On an abandoned old boat outside the ancient city’s military station.
“Ning Huxiao, you b.a.s.t.a.r.d, how dare you use me?” Li Tianyu, with a b.l.o.o.d.y nose and a swollen face, wore a ragged blue and white robe like a beggar. Also like a bereaved dog, he escaped from the city desperately. Furthermore, like a wounded wild animal, he roared angrily.
“Boom!”
He stepped on the deck of the old boat and broke several wooden boards of the aeroboat reinforced with primordial inscriptions, which showed how angry he was.
He had never expected to be beaten thoroughly by a strong black savage.
It was an extreme shame.
He couldn’t swallow the evil spirit in his heart, but Lin Tianyu didn’t have the courage to return to the ancient city to fight again.
He had never expected that the unknown black boy’s strength was so horrifying. He seemed to be practicing a very strange physical training skill. He became braver and braver in the compet.i.tion. Finally, the strange roar erupting from the boy’s body was like a roar of thousands of troops. His blood was burning up, which made Lin Tianyu feel that he was facing a burning holy mountain, and a devil from the Shura h.e.l.l who refused to die.
That b.a.s.t.a.r.d Ning Huxiao had played with him deliberately.
At the beginning, Ning Huxiao didn’t tell him that the primordial inscriptions in the ancient city’s military station could suppress a martial artist’s Qi cultivation. He didn’t tell him either that the two teenagers’ physical strength was comparable to that of the most ferocious beasts. He was only told that they were the two barbarians with weak strength in a border province, which made him suffer a great loss.
Ning Huxiao intended to kill Ding Hao with a borrowed knife.
After thinking about it carefully… he met Ning Huxiao accidentally that morning. That d.a.m.ned sword cultivator’s provocative words were clearly intended to provoke him to fight against the two teenagers… That insidious fellow deliberately sent him to court death. Well, Ning Huxiao had been defeated by the two teenagers and he knew very well that he couldn’t defeat them, He asked him to court death, but he didn’t know what had really happened. He did so…
Lin Tianyu was not a fool.
He soon figured out why Ning Huxiao had done it.
Once he was killed by the two teenagers, his senior martial brothers would surely avenge him… That b.a.s.t.a.r.d wanted to kill him with a borrowed knife.
Fortunately, at the last moment of life and death that day, the boy toy’s voice came out of the hall, which prevented the black faced youth from pursuing. Otherwise, that day, he might have been killed in that small ancient city. His senior martial brother was right, there were too many strong masters in the world like clouds. If one was too arrogant, it was easy to provoke some sleeping dogs. He was really defeated that time.
Although he was unwilling to admit his failure, after figuring out the key points in the incident, Lin Tianyu hated Ning Huxiao even more.
He lost to that black youth in the face-to-face contest. He was unconvinced in his heart. After all, everything was fair and aboveboard; his opponent had not secretly schemed against him..
But Ning Huxiao was scheming against him in the back…
“Ning Huxiao should have gone to find our senior martial brothers… then, I have to go back quickly, lest our senior martial brothers be hoodwinked by him and go to those two savages for revenge… ” Lin Tianyu turned around to leave, and suddenly thought of something. He stopped, took out a new suit out of the storage ring and put it on, and then took out a very delicate bronze mirror as a magic weapon. He carefully combed and dressed up, then he represented an image of the elegant young man before and then left as a streamer.
“Think it over. How handsome I, Lin Tianyu am. I am known as one of the top ten handsome men in the Green Province. Countless female cultivators have been pursuing and flattering me. Today, I was beaten black and blue… It should not be known by others that I was beaten so badly by two villains… d.a.m.n it! What a shame!”
“Senior martial brother Ding, why didn’t you kill him just now?”
Zhang Fan asked in bewilderment.
In that battle, he had taken the overwhelming advantage with the absolute a.s.surance to kill the beautiful and arrogant genius of the Blue Cloud Sect. But at the last moment, Ding Hao stopped him.
“According to Ai Qing, the relations.h.i.+p between the Blue Cloud Sect and the Heaven-Splitting Swordsmans.h.i.+p Sect is not close, so they have nothing to do with teacher Ximen’s incident. He’d better listen to what it says and watch what it does. I think that Lin Tianyu was tricked by Ning Huxiao to come here. He didn’t even know that the ancient city suppressed Qi cultivations. If he was killed, I would become the enemy of the Blue Cloud Sect. I would have one more strong enemy. And Ning Huxiao might succeed in his scheme. It’s all right to teach him a lesson and let him go.”
Ding Hao was thoughtful.
Zhang Fan nodded.
“Get ready. We will leave the ancient city’s military station tomorrow. We can’t stay here any longer. We have to find the magic herbs for curing teacher Ximen. Ning Huxiao must be waiting for us to go out. Then, there will be a fierce battle!” said Ding Hao.
Zhang Fan still nodded in silence and stood at the gate of the hall.
Ding Hao went back to the main hall. He took out the hearts of the four sealed monsters from the storage ring and some collected bones, metal and iron materials, then began a miscellaneous refining. He wanted to dig a pit and make Ning Huxiao jump down, to completely solved the disaster. As for the people of the Blue Cloud Sect… he could believe that after Lin Tianyu returned, all the truth would be self-evident; it was likely that he wouldn’t really become a deadly enemy to him.
