Chapter 514
This was the gap between the two mountains.
The mountains were not very high, but the distance between the two mountains was very far, and the mountain stream was even more frighteningly deep.
A rope bridge was placed between the two mountains. It was like a black line that swayed in the wind.
The man in black stood leisurely in the middle of the cable bridge, with his hands behind his back, facing the direction of the Fragrant Religion's convoy, and quietly waiting.
From time to time, the mountain wind would blow, causing the man's hair and clothes to flutter, but the man's eyes did not blink as he stared straight ahead.
Zhang Xiaohua's divine sense shrouded over, but the man did not notice. It was only when Zhang Xiaohua carefully sized him up that he slightly frowned and raised his chin slightly, a little surprised in his heart. But when he used his qi to examine carefully, Zhang Xiaohua had already moved far away from him.
"Could this be some kind of welcoming gimmick from some sect?"
Zhang Xiaohua secretly muttered.
Zhang Xiaohua wanted to categorize the man blocking their way as a threat, but along the way, the Cult of Fragrance had been very brazen, and did not hide their itinerary at all. The various sects had also been waiting for them on the road in advance, but they had not seen anything that was disadvantageous to the Cult of Fragrance. Gradually, Zhang Xiaohua began to understand why the disciples of the Cult of Fragrance had said that his escort was just for show. That was because, wherever they went, people would welcome them with open arms, so who would have evil intentions?
But at this time, the convoy was still very far from the cable bridge, and the man in black did not notice the arrival of the convoy. His body did not reveal any killing intent, so he could not tell whether he was a friend or foe.
After the time it took to eat a meal, the cable bridge was close.
The man in black suddenly raised the corner of his eyes, and a smile appeared on his lips. His body moved slightly, and in an instant, an invisible killing intent immediately spread out from his body, and rushed straight towards the Fragrant Religion's convoy.
Zhang Xiaohua was riding the David's Deer at the very back of the group. When he saw the blue-robed man move and release an imposing aura, he knew in his heart that this guy was here to cause trouble. He was not angry but happy. To be honest, he had been tired of traveling for a while. If someone wanted to challenge the prestige of the Fragrant Religion, he would be happy to watch.
At this moment, the disciple leading the way had already realized that there was a suspension bridge up ahead. Just as he was about to warn the group, a low harrumph suddenly sounded, "Halt the convoy."
It was Lord Peacock Kong's order.
No one dared to dawdle. They immediately stopped the carriages and Peacock ordered, "Go and see if there's any movement on the suspension bridge."
She did not call out his name directly. The disciple who was leading the way immediately obeyed the order and urged his horse forward a few steps to the side of the mountain. When he saw the green-robed man on the rope bridge clearly, he sucked in a breath of cold air and shouted, "That man You, who are you?
Why are you blocking my path? Why are you blocking my Incense Cult's advance? "
The green-robed man's pale face was filled with contempt. He whispered, "You're just an outer disciple and yet you're so arrogant. What makes you think you have the right to ask for my name?
Go and tell your Lord Kong that I don't welcome you. Tell your Lord Kong to come and face her death. After she dies, I'll throw you off this cliff one by one! "
The disciple of the Incense Cult had never been humiliated like this before. He was about to jump down from his horse when he heard an angry shout, "Come back, don't you know what you're worth?"
After that, a white figure flew out from the middle of the carriage and headed straight for the side of the mountain.
Seeing his Lord coming down, the disciple did not dare to make a move. He quickly bowed and retreated. Peacock looked at the figure on the suspension bridge and then looked around. She ordered, "Protect the carriages carefully. Do not let this man's accomplice take advantage of the chaos to rob us. The goods in the convoy are worthless but they care about the reputation of the Incense Cult."
"I understand."
After that, he ran back to the carriages and rearranged the guards to protect them.
Zhang Xiaohua, the fake bodyguard, was relieved of his duties. A disciple of the Incense Cult stood not far from him with a long sword in hand.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua jumped down from his David's Deer and sat in the carriage. Forceful poked his head out of the carriage and asked in fear, "Uncle, what … what's going on?"
Zhang Xiaohua frowned, "Why are you shouting again?
Hmm, it's nothing. It seems like someone is blocking our way. "
"Another offering of food and wine?" Forceful shook his head, "We meet them every few days …"
"Hide in the carriage and don't talk. It seems like they're looking for trouble."
"What?
Looking for trouble?
How dare someone touch the tail of the Incense Cult!
Oh no, this is bad. They wouldn't dare to go to Liangshan if they weren't confident. Since they dared to come, they must have some confidence. Uncle, we're just medicine apprentices. They won't kill us, right? "
"Nonsense, they're going to kill us all.
They're going to keep you alive to report to the Incense Cult! "
Zhang Xiaohua looked at him with contempt. A child who has never been in the martial arts world is so ignorant.
As expected, Forceful's face turned pale and he said with a trembling voice, "Uncle, we're relatives. If you run, don't forget to take me with you …"
Zhang Xiaohua glared at him, "Even the disciples of the Incense Cult can't escape. Where can I go?
You should pray for Master Kong. Only if she wins will we be safe. "
Forceful nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay, okay, I'll pray now. Uncle, are you not coming?"
Zhang Xiaohua was annoyed, "I'm not sincere. You do it."
Then he released his spiritual sense and admired from afar. He no longer cared about Forceful.
Peacock came to the end of the suspension bridge and looked at the surrounding terrain. The bridge was very long and connected the two places. It was the only way. Below the bridge was a deep mountain stream. Inside the stream were countless trees. Everything was green as far as the eye could see.
With a plan in mind, Peacock asked calmly, "The heroes in front, why are you so unfamiliar?
What's the matter with you stopping my convoy? "
Although the voice was faint, it was transmitted directly into the ears of the man in green. Due to the wind, he could not hear it clearly.
The man in green laughed coldly, "I'm Liang Cangxu. I'm a nobody. Even if Master Kong knows my name, you won't know where I come from.
Since I know you're Master Kong and I'm blocking your only way, what do you think I can do?
I'll just take your life and kill everyone in the Incense Cult. "
"Hehe, you have a good plan. But just you alone?
Don't you think that's wishful thinking? "
"Lord Kong, you really live like a prince. Although there are many people in the Aroma Sect, the only one who can make me act is Lord Kong. I only need to kill you, and the others will be as easy as squashing ants, won't they?
Peacock nodded, "You're right.
But I'm curious. Who in Jianghu wouldn't flatter the Incense Cult when they see them? Why do you have to go against the Incense Cult? "
"Hahaha," Liang Cangxu laughed, "Master Kong, if you're trying to get information from me, Liang, then you're wrong. Come come come, let me see what a disciple of the Incense Cult is capable of."
After saying that, he raised his hands, which had been behind his back, in front of him, holding a steel knife in each hand.
Not only was Zhang Xiaohua stunned, even Peacock frowned. As the saying goes, "Ten days to practice the fist, a hundred days to practice the blade, a thousand days to practice the spear, ten thousand days to practice the sword."
In this Jianghu, most of the people who were highly skilled in martial arts used swords. Only by using swords could they display their profound internal energy and superb moves.
Of course, there were exceptions. Zhang Xiaohua's fist training was much more strenuous than her sword training.
However, since this inexplicable Liang Cangxu dared to stop the inner disciple of the Incense Cult, Peacock, no one would believe that he did not have some degree of confidence. This meant that his cultivation of the saber was not low, and he must have a unique skill!
Moreover, he was wielding a pair of blades rarely seen in Jianghu!
Flexible sword, another flexible sword. Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat. She could not help but think of Qin Shiyue from the Tenryū Sect. That person also wielded a flexible sword but he was used to slashing and killing. Peacock was dressed in a snow-white robe, holding a flexible sword that swayed in the wind from time to time. The sword was slender and the beauty was graceful. It was a picture of beauty.
Peacock stepped onto the suspension bridge and walked forward steadily. Even though she was slender, the bridge swayed with every step she took. However, Liang Cangxu was standing very steadily. His body swayed along with the bridge as if he was one with the bridge.
When Peacock saw this, she was not surprised. She waited for Liang Cangxu to come closer before she swung her flexible sword. The flexible sword pointed diagonally towards the sky. Peacock laughed coldly and said, "Liang Cangxu, I don't care who you are. If you stop now, it's not too late. Turn back now and I'll pretend that nothing happened. But if you wait for me to strike and chop off your head, it'll be too late for regrets!"
Liang Cangxu crossed his blades and slashed them across the air. He laughed, "Until now, you're still thinking of winning without a fight?
Are the inner disciples of the Incense Cult all so fond of using logic to convince others? "
As he spoke, he stomped his foot and levitated into the air. He shouted, "Since you're not going to make a move, then I'll teach you what it means to strike first."
Before he finished his sentence, the blade in his right hand was raised and slashed towards Peacock's head like a rainbow.
Peacock did not back down. She laughed coldly, "I see that you don't know any etiquette. You don't look like a useless disciple from any sect. Let me teach you what it means to be a real master."
Then, like a flash of lightning, Peacock charged forward. The flexible sword in her hand was aimed at Liang Cangxu's throat. The speed of the flexible sword was faster than the steel blade. If Liang Cangxu did not dodge, the flexible sword would have penetrated his vitals first.
However, Liang Cangxu did not pull back his saber to counter the attack. Instead, he made a circle with his left hand and flicked his wrist outwards. The other steel saber blocked the direction of the soft sword.
