Chapter 8: The Demon Emperor Begins to Rise to Might

Ximen Rin and others took the building boat down the river, in a blink of an eye has bypassed the foot of the mountain, everyone only felt that the eyes suddenly opened up, the river is surging, as far as the eye can see, this place has been close to the ancient battlefield of the Sun Cao War in the Three Kingdoms, so the river surface is quite wide, under the eye, there are at least eight or nine miles wide of the water surface, if you look at each other across the bank, you can faintly see the figure on the opposite bank at most. The boat travels more than 20 miles, only to see that there are three small hills on the south bank of the river, which are connected by ups and downs, it is already late autumn at this time, only to see the yellow leaves of the mountains, and the color is like gold under the hot sun. One of the small hills is in the southwest of the river, but it is a hundred zhang cliffs, strange rocks are craggy, the rocks under it pierce the air, the river water is agitated and circling, hitting the cliff mountain rocks, the water splashes, like a snow stratus cloud. There are two big blood-red characters on the cliff - "red cliff". Those two words looked handsome at first, but at the second glance, they were tense, and they only felt that the turning point revealed a tragic atmosphere.

And at the foot of Chibi Mountain, I saw six ironclad Baotou three-masted warships lined up, blocking most of the way, the six warships are all clear flags, it is clear that they are the six major warships in the upper reaches of the river, and among the six warships, there are countless small warships cruising back and forth, three or five in groups, with different flags, they seem to be distinct from each other, but they faintly cooperate, forming a battle array, not to mention a building ship here in Ximen Rin, that is, ten more eight warships, this is obviously well-trained, With the tacit understanding of the Allied water array, they can only retreat.

Although Ximen Rin has been in Youji all the year round, he knows all kinds of forces on the river well, just looking at the various flags, he knows that from Yueyang, down to Jiujiang, above the thousands of miles of rivers, and the water thieves entrenched in the lakes and rivers dotted on both sides of the river, most of them have come to participate in this alliance, especially the six major water thieves who are famous all over the world, and they are all present. Although this situation had long been expected by him, Ximen Rin still couldn't help but be a little frightened, it seemed that the Tang Clan's latent power on the river was really extraordinary, and it was not uncommon to be able to gather those famous people of the White Dao, but even the Shui Kou, who was opposed to the enemy on weekdays, was also invited, and the strangeness of this was enough to make the world have endless aftertastes.

And in front of these large and small ships, the river is flowing, but a six-zhang square floating platform has been built with giant trees, several feet above the water surface, one end is tied with an iron chain with the thickness of the arm, and the end of the iron chain is dragged over a thousand zhang distance, tied to the keyhole on the huge rock under the red cliff, the floating platform is undulating with the river surface, fluttering and shaking, looking quite unbearable wind and waves. Within a hundred zhang of the floating platform, there is not a single speedboat of water thieves, obviously it is a prepared battlefield, not close to the warship, this must be the principal in order to show his open-mindedness, so he deliberately did not use force to coerce, and it was a fair duel.

It's just that the principal's pretentiousness may not be really fair, most of the Jiangdong heroes are familiar with the water nature, and even if the people of Youji know some water nature, how can they compare with the opponent who is used to water wars, not to mention that half of the people who participated in the alliance in the southeast this time are water thieves who dominate the river, and the water nature is even more outstanding. One is that the warriors of Youji are arrogant and natural, and the other is that most of them are mediocre, that is, their lives are not hindered, and they will inevitably show embarrassment, which is already quite uneven, not to mention that the floating platform floats in the water, and the Jiangdong masters who are good at water warfare can naturally rely on this to borrow their strength, but most of the people in Youji have to spend some energy to stabilize the next plate, and this is not extremely unfair. It's just that although the Youji side understands the article, there is no way to change this situation, the Youji side is alone, if you don't choose to be one-on-one on the river, do you still have to fight, so although there is a slight unevenness, you can only acquiesce.

Ximen Rin was already prepared in his heart, and he would not blame much, seeing that it was only more than 20 zhang away from the floating platform, he waved his hand and ordered, stopped the boat, stepped forward, stood on the bow of the boat and raised his voice: "I heard that the Jiangdong heroes and Chibi will join the alliance, and they will bury this seat and their party in the river, why do we only see the heroes and heroes on the underworld, but not the heroes and heroes on the white road?

Ximen Rin's words implied to sow discord caused some slight fluctuations on the six three-masted warships, and even Ximen Rin could already see that some of the unruly water thieves had shown anger on their faces, and couldn't help but laugh in their hearts that the master had revealed his flaws, you must know that although most of the rivers below Yueyang are the Tang clan's sphere of influence, the black and white ones are almost all based on the Tang clan's horse, but there are many differences.

It has been 20 years since Dachen unified the world, but due to the opposition of one emperor and three feudatories, the world is not really peaceful, especially in the place where the forces of all parties are intertwined, there are often bandits, and there are many forces supported by various families. Of course, for the sake of face, no matter which family of the imperial clan is, they will definitely not let these bandits sit out of control, but they will not be wiped out.

The Yangtze River water thieves have existed for many years for such reasons, it is difficult to exterminate them, but they are becoming more and more rampant, the main reason is the selfishness of the Tang family, although the Tang family has been attached to the Yang family, but it is unwilling to become an ordinary courtier, so they still have to try their best to maintain their status, and the Yang family wants to completely digest the power of the Tang family, and it is not an easy move overnight. What's more, the Yang clan is attacked on both sides, and it is impossible to send elite soldiers and strong generals to the southeast to idle, so most of the army that controls the southeast is still under the control of the Tang clan, although the Yang clan's power has already penetrated in, but there is no overwhelming power.

Although the Tang clan promised to give up their military power, they were unwilling to have only a small number of private soldiers and cultivate recruited master assassins, so it became a natural choice to use the existence of water thieves to hide the private soldiers of the water army. In the past 20 years, the excessively powerful Shui Kou on the river has finally been either exterminated or recruited by the Tang Clan, which is the best proof. The Tang clan first connived at the water thieves to plunder and kill their opponents, and then used the powerful status of Yue Guogong to command the water army, divided and used the water thieves, secretly raised a strong private army, abandoned the false name, and obtained practical benefits, using the support of the royal family and strong force, the merchant ships were unhindered in the river and water, and through the trade with Yizhou, the speed at which the Tang clan accumulated wealth can be said to be unimaginable. At the same time that the Tang family is rich and rivals the country, there are countless large and small families, because the river is invaded by water thieves, and can only watch the low-hanging wealth flow away from the side, for the life and death of the family, in the case of knowing that they cannot resist, these families can only rely on the Tang family, relying on the snort, in order to continue to exist and develop, the more families they are attached to, the stronger the power of the Tang family, so under the repeated action, although the Tang family gave up the unique vassal throne, but the power is getting stronger and stronger, especially after the new emperor ascended the throne, as an auxiliary minister, the Duke of Yue is even more prominent, in addition to the Yan Domain, which is the King of Han and the King of Dian, and can only retreat.

Since the Yangtze River water thieves have such a great effect on the Tang clan, it is not difficult to understand why although the imperial court has repeatedly preached for many years to exterminate the water thieves, in the end it is to no avail, and these underworld water thieves loot for a living, most of them do all kinds of evil, even if they are the heroes of one side like the six major water thieves, most of them sit on the ground to share the spoils, and survive by collecting tolls from the merchant ships to and fro, and they will inevitably go out from time to time to loot merchant ships and villages and towns along the river, although if it is too much, it will also be exterminated, but no matter how vicious the water thieves, if they really offend the Tang family, they may not be able to move an inch on the river, and above the river, the Tang family is the real overlord。 Therefore, Shi Ming used Jiangdong's black and white xenophobic psychological alliance to intercept Ximen Rin and his party, no matter what these water thieves really thought in their hearts, they didn't dare to refuse, but they were just going against the most powerful Yan Clan, and these people might not be reluctant in their hearts.

The Tang clan is the most powerful supporter of the royal family, and it is the actual overlord of the southeast, so they feel that it does not violate the "great righteousness", they come to the alliance to support Shi Ming, and by the way, they attack Yanshanwei in Youji, and take revenge on the deep enmity between the warriors in the north and south in the past 20 years, which is a matter of course.

However, supporting the Tang clan does not mean that they are willing to join the water thieves, people who practice martial arts are often from good families, and there are not a few people who are born in families, and whether the trade between the rivers and rivers is smooth or not can be said to largely determine their lives. Even if they can climb the Tang Clan, the waterway is unimpeded, and the filial piety on this road is not a small number, plus there are many uncontrolled small forces among these water thieves, and the annual loss on the river is at least thirty percent of the profit due. For the Tang Clan, they dare not speak out at most, after all, the Tang Clan's control of the water thieves is just a rumor, and there is no real evidence, not to mention that if there is no leftovers exposed in the Tang Clan's fingers, they are afraid that their family or sect will already be unable to make ends meet, so the people in the Bai Dao are mostly obedient to the Tang Clan, but they hate the water thieves who directly affect their interests.

Although the black and white Dao are reluctant to ally this time, Shi Ming will definitely try to separate the two sides in order not to have internal strife on his side, and the dignified Dongyang Hou naturally can't be with the underworld Shui Kou, and appearing with the people in the White Dao has become the only choice. As soon as Ximen Rin saw the situation at the scene, he knew that it must be those people in the white path who did not want to appear with the underworld water thieves, and Shi Ming also intended to hang his people here for a while in order to take the lead, so he did not show up for a long time.

Sure enough, after he finished saying this, he immediately saw that on a warship flying a blood-colored skull flag, a big man with a violent expression was almost like thunder, pointing at Ximen Rin from afar and shouting: "You thief bird, keep asking those white plague students, don't you look down on these heroes and heroes of Lao Tzu, even those nests can't be wasted, Lao Tzu can also cramp and skin you, don't put your big boss here, Lao Tzu slaughtered you at most to the end of the world, I don't believe that Fengtai Pavilion can bite Lao Tzu's bird!"

Ximen Rin has a noble status in Youji, and most of the people he sees on weekdays are heroes, but he is extremely angry and hateful, and at most insults him for being a tiger, or scolds him for being cruel and ruthless, how could there ever be such a reliant character, who dared to insult him in public, and laughed instead of being angry when he heard the words, his eyes swept away, and he said lightly: " Who is my Dao, it turned out to be the boss of the black dragon Chu in the land and water, the six major water gulves in the upper reaches of the river, Your Excellency can rank fifth, it must be deserved, it must be a strong martial arts, ruthless, bold character, no wonder you don't look at this seat in your eyes, presumably you will be on the field for a while, if you can't wait, why not compete with this seat now, this seat can be guaranteed, even if you are unfortunately defeated, this game is not counted within the ten formations, what does Boss Chu think?"

The big man's head burst with green tendons, although Ximen Rin's words were polite, but the contempt in his tone was even a three-year-old child could hear it, Chu Boss was a fiery character, and he was about to go to war at the moment, but he hugged a few young water thieves around him, these people must have been very familiar, and they each restrained the joints of their hands and feet, although the big man jumped like thunder, but he couldn't break free, and a middle-aged man walked out behind him, dressed in cloth, with a gloomy face, and said in a loud voice: " The leader of the West Gate is arrogant and dry, and our big boss should be fulfilled, but this time my Jiangdong hero Chibi will meet the alliance to discuss the northern thief, and I have not been ordered by the alliance leader, please forgive me for not daring to violate the law of the alliance leader, and when the alliance leader arrives in person, the commander can challenge the alliance leader, and our big boss will never refuse at that time. ”

Ximen Rin listened to it slightly, knowing that this person was just prevarication, if Shi Ming really came, he would never let a master of Boss Chu's level come up and be embarrassed, even with his own identity, he would never challenge a second-rate person, if he misunderstood that he was bullying, then Yan Shanwei would lose face because of his own leader.

At this moment, he heard Yang Ning say coldly: "Why wait until the alliance leader comes, it is natural to have a few battles to warm up before the decisive battle, if you don't dare to fight with the Ximen Commander, then dare to do it with me." ”

Ximen Rin was stunned when he heard this, this Chu Boss's martial arts are just mediocre, what kind of martial arts identity Yang Ning is, how could he take the initiative to challenge a rough man, he couldn't help but look back, only to see Yang Ning standing not far behind him with his hands in his hands, his eyebrows were radiant, and his originally delicate and upright appearance seemed to glow with incomparable brilliance.

The bosses saw that the challenge was only a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, he felt deeply humiliated, his arms shook, and he used his divine power, and the young water thieves could no longer suppress the leader, they all staggered and stumbled, Chu Boss scolded angrily: "Thief bird, Lao Tzu will be with you-", before he finished speaking, he had already covered his mouth by the middle-aged man, and the big man was dancing and struggling.

The middle-aged man said with a pale face: "How dare you dare, Zijing Gongzi is the new Demon Emperor, listening to the battle of Tao Pavilion, the blood flowed like a river, so that the child did not dare to cry at night, how can we be in charge, how dare we accept the challenge of the son, if the words are inconsiderate, please also ask the son to be generous and tolerant." ”

Yang Ning was stunned when he heard it, the honorific title of the Demon Emperor is not a casual title, he is neither a contemporary sect master, nor is the position of the sect son clearly obtained, not to mention that even if he is the sect master, he still needs to go through various trials to be qualified to be respected as the Demon Emperor, but these are the secrets within the Martial Arts Sect, Yang Ning naturally will not mention it to outsiders casually, if he argues, he will be even more troubled, so he just replied lightly: " Who are you, why are you talking nonsense, although you are the descendant of the martial arts sect, you are not the sect master, and you dare not be called the emperor, not to mention, is the word demon emperor also worthy of your name?"

The middle-aged man's heart was shocked, knowing that he was in a panic, but he had committed the taboo of the disciples of the Demon Gate, you must know that although the Martial Arts Sect Master is known as the Demon Emperor, the disciples of the Demon Gate themselves do not admit it, where in the world do people like to call themselves demons. Therefore, the six sects of the Demon Gate are called the six sects of the Holy Gate in the mouths of the disciples of the Demon Gate, and the sect master of the Martial Dao Sect is the Martial Emperor of the six sects. If the word Demon Emperor is said in private, it is just that, after all, the law does not blame the public, even if the Demon Gate can cover the sky with one hand, most of them can only turn a blind eye, but like him, he dares to call the Demon Emperor in front of the disciples of the Martial Arts Sect, but there are few people in the world who have such courage, even the Cuihu disciple of the head of the White Dao is here, and he can only respectfully call the emperor. He couldn't help but panic in his heart, and hurriedly said loudly: "The emperor forgives the sin, and the villain is speechless." Although he also knew that Yang Ning was young, he might not really be the Demon Emperor, but when he saw him so young, he did such a terrifying thing in Yueyang, presumably martial arts are already at the top level, even if he is wrong, but there must be only benefits, no harm. What's more, the top priority at the moment is to dispel this young man's killing intent, so he can't care about the suspicion of sycophancy.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, there was a middle-aged man in a hawk eye and blue shirt on another warship hanging the green dragon tooth flag, and sneered: "What emperor sect master, a milky hairy child, is also worthy of your second brother Wen to be so servile, you really lost the face of the 'Skull Society', Boss Chu, don't you just look at your subordinates making such self-assertions, no wonder your skeleton will be obviously strong and strong, but you can only be relegated to fifth." ”

On this warship flying the Qinglong Tooth Flag is the "Qinglong Hall" of the six major Kou ranked fourth, and the middle-aged man in the blue shirt is Gu Yang, the lobby master of the Qinglong Hall. In the past two years, the Skull and Bones Society has sprung up, killing the water cole force that was originally ranked fifth, and becoming one of the six major water coars. The Skull and Bones Club is mostly in the land and water on weekdays, and every time they encounter a big deal, they will enter the river from the mouth of the Luxi River to plunder the merchants, while the Qinglongtang is mostly entrenched in Huanggai Lake, and every time it enters the river through the Taiping River, the territory of the two sides is close, in order to compete for business, I don't know how many battles have been scrambled, and each other has long been incompatible. Today, Gu Yang saw that Wen Jinru, the second elder of the Skull Society, was so cowardly, and he felt that he was disdainful and disdainful. After all, the two sides grabbed business, he didn't know how much he had suffered, most of them were caught in the trap of Wen Lao Er, if outsiders knew that the military advisor of the Skull Guild who had made Qinglongtang suffer repeated setbacks was such a soft bone, wouldn't it have caused Qinglongtang to lose face. In addition to force, the most important thing is prestige, so he will speak angrily, wanting to provoke Boss Chu, so that the skeleton will go out and fight to the death with the new demon emperor, if he wins, it is naturally good to save face, but if he loses, he will weaken the strength of the skeleton club at most, what harm will it do to him?

Sure enough, as soon as these words came out, Boss Chu and Elder Wen both changed their faces greatly, and Boss Chu broke free from the military advisor and shouted: "Take Lao Tzu's blade, and take advantage of the fact that the alliance leader has not yet come, it is best to have a warm-up first." ”

Wen Lao Er was in a cold sweat, he naturally knew that in this case, he had no way to stop Boss Chu, but he was originally from a famous family, and naturally knew many secrets, unlike Boss Chu, Gu Yang, most of these people were born in a reckless manner, and they didn't have too deep understanding of the Martial Dao Sect that had disappeared for seventy years and the Demon Gate that had almost been scattered, he naturally knew what this young man's appearance represented, seventy years later, this young man appeared on the rivers and lakes again as a descendant of the Martial Dao Sect, whether it was for Liwei, or for the unique cultivation method of the Martial Dao Sect, killing the blood would be his best choice. He looked at Boss Chu almost desperately, scolded Gu Yang in his heart, and said secretly, if you kid wants to die by himself, how can you drag the big boss into the water. However, the only consolation in his heart was that when Gu Yang's mouth was not inferior, the young man's deep and cold eyes had already looked at the Qinglong Tooth Banner, or it was not just his own side that was unlucky.

At this time, Boss Chu had already taken over a single-edged sword with iron from his cronies' subordinates, the sword body was five feet long, the hilt and the sword body were integrated, and he looked heavy. In fact, this floating platform is isolated in the water, unless the light skills are outstanding, it is difficult to jump to the platform in the air, it is a first-class master, there is no small boat to send him, and there is no way to get on the floating platform, so everyone does not laugh at Boss Chu.

Gu Yang was proud in his heart, but his face showed disdain, and he sneered: "The hall master is waiting for you to see that your boss Chu is victorious, hehe!" The last laugh was full of contempt and schadenfreude, he instigated Boss Chu to succeed in battle, and his heart was naturally very happy. Seeing that Yang Ning was free and at ease, he was completely imprisoned, and he suspected that there was something else going on in Tingtao Pavilion, so he didn't believe that Yang Ning was really as powerful as the legend. But he also understands that since this person dares to take the initiative to challenge, then his martial arts are also outstanding, and although Boss Chu is impatient, his martial arts are unambiguous, and his attacks are even more ruthless, often without regard for his own life, so those who are better than him in martial arts often die under his heavy sword, most of these two people will fight to lose, but it is the best for him, if it weren't for his deep scheming and forcible suppression, I am afraid that he would have laughed out loud.

At this moment, Yang Ning's indifferent and cold voice came from his ear: "Are you very happy, why don't you laugh?"

Gu Yang subconsciously shouted: "Presumptuous!" and turned his head to look, he almost subconsciously turned his head to look, but only saw a familiar face, at this moment, there were countless frightened cries in his ears, and in the corner of his eye, he had already seen a looming green shadow rushing towards him, and he shouted: "Stop him." At the same time, he scurried back, reaching for his sword.

The battle platform of the Qinglongtang warship was full of experienced water thieves, and Gu Yang suddenly shouted "presumptuous" , so that they all looked sideways, I don't know that the brother offended the hall master, but at this moment, the surrounding exclamations, and heard Gu Yang's order, but when they turned around to look at the opposite side, they only saw that a green shadow had already boarded the side of the ship, at this time it was too late to pick up the bow and release the arrows, how could these water thieves have ever seen such a speed body, they were all angry and furious, pulled out the single knife on their backs, and slashed at the green shadow with their lives, and even moved their bodies, blocking between that person and Gu Yang.

The green shadow did not stop, a white jade palm seemed to stretch out from the void, and gently slapped on a water thief in front of him, the man flew backwards like a broken kite, knocking down two water thieves who were rushing forward to kill, the two water thieves screamed and fell to the ground, the sound of broken bones was clear in the ears, and the water thief who was slapped had already bled from seven orifices, and died too much to die. The water thieves haven't seen it clearly, the person has already rushed into the crowd, these water thieves can only see a faint green shadow in their eyes, the figure is everywhere, one by one the water thieves screamed, some were killed by a palm, and some were hit by the corpse of their companions full of internal strength, almost in an instant, that person had broken through the protection of the water thieves in Qinglong Hall, and was only three steps away from Gu Yang. The water thieves closest to Gu Yang were all his henchmen, all of them were outlaws, not afraid of death, although the screams of the brothers in front of them were still hovering in their ears, but they each drew their swords and formed a formation, using the most complete defensive knife technique, and they did not retreat.

Yang Ning did not pause at all, the heart lake was clear and calm, using the strongest technique to break through Gu Yang's outer defense line, the inner defense line formed by the snow bright sword light could not give him more obstacles, between breaths, the original fierce true qi had become extremely feminine, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes, and he had already used the fingering method of pulling flowers all the way, ten fingers came and went, bending and stretching lightly, it seemed that the lotus flower bloomed, and it seemed that the flame rose and fell, and his figure became faster and faster, as if a faint phantom was shuttling back and forth in the knife light, almost every moment, there was a water thief's throat or blood flowers blooming in the eyebrows, but the palms that were as white as jade were not stained with blood, but in the eyes of those water thieves who couldn't see the enemy's voice and face clearly, the only clearly visible palms seemed to be Shura's hands stretched out from hell, and finally the water thieves who were all broken lost the strength to resist, and almost fled to the left and right with their hearts, and the water thieves who were close to the side of the ship had jumped into the water desperately, plopping and plopping, and the sound of falling into the water was endless.

Yang Ning just ignored all this, after all the obstacles were removed, he had already stood quietly in front of Gu Yang, Gu Yang's hands trembled, the long sword in his hand was shaky, from the time he heard the indifferent voice in his ears, to the time he drew his sword out of the sheath It was only a short moment, but Yang Ning had already approached him three steps in front of him, and when he was shocked in his heart, the moment he hesitated slightly, Yang Ning had already killed the last water thief who was blocking between the two, all this happened too quickly, until he clearly saw Yang Ning standing in front of him, he really knew what was happening。

Since being ranked among the six great cowards, Gu Yang has not noticed that his courage and guts have actually gradually faded, many times he likes to use bullying methods, and the change of situation has made him change from a vicious murderer to a coward, but until this moment, he did not realize this. He could feel the sweat rolling down his forehead, the sweat dripping into his eyes, at this moment he felt as if he was alone, the screams and exclamations in his ears did not help him at all, how could he think that this young man did not have the courage to break into the boat, the intense fear finally destroyed the last trace of his sanity, and finally he stabbed Yang Ning with a sword, but after the stabbing he regretted it, because he felt the sweat in his palm, which made him almost unable to hold the hilt of the sword. He naturally didn't know that in fact, the time when he hesitated and feared there was much shorter than he imagined, and his sword was not as weak as he imagined, and a sword light like a practice broke through the air, turned into a little cold, and covered Yang Ning.

Yang Ning still had time to smile slightly, under the light of the sword, the expression on the delicate face was indifferent, and the smile brought people not comfort, but deeper fear, and then Yang Ning's palm was so light and skillful that it pierced through the sword light like snow, turned his fingers into palms, and slapped Gu Yang's chest with one palm, and then Yang Ning's figure retreated, and thousands of eyes stared at him, but he saw that his figure disappeared suddenly, and when he reappeared, he was already standing on the floating platform with his hands in his hands, but he looked up to Gu Yang again and smiled slightly.

Gu Yang only felt that Yang Ning's palm was brushing over his body, and he didn't feel anything at all, and then Yang Ning had already retreated suddenly, and when he saw Yang Ning's figure again, Yang Ning was already standing on the floating platform more than thirty zhang away from him, and he didn't understand why Yang Ning would let himself go, he breathed a sigh of relief, his long sword was lowered, thinking about how to speak, in order to save some face, and not to anger Yang Ning again, but just when he raised his head, took a deep breath, and wanted to speak.

He saw countless frightened and pitiful eyes, he was strange in his heart, but he felt that the seven orifices were a little wet, he subconsciously reached out to wipe his eyes, put down his hand, but was surprised to see the blood in his hand, just when he was frightened, indescribable pain came from his heart, he screamed, opened his mouth, a stream of blood shot out, Gu Yang's eyes fell into a pool of blood, but he saw the broken internal organs, he spat blood in his mouth, and shouted loudly: "Demon Emperor, Demon Emperor-" , only shouted a second time, Gu Yang's body had fallen to the ground like mud, and the cry full of fear stopped abruptly.

When Yang Ning suddenly made a move, the other water thieves had already been on their own alert, but they didn't have the idea of helping Gu Yang, after all, there was no deep friendship between the water thieves, not to mention that they didn't have a chance to make a move, even Ximen Rin and the others were already stunned, not to mention these water thieves who were uneven, until Gu Yang fell to the ground and died, some water thieves with more skills and minds than ordinary people came to their senses. It was almost reflexive, all the water thieves either drew their swords or drew their bows and were ready to fire, all their eyes were staring at Yang Ning tightly, but the afterglow of their eyes was to look at the hellish scene of Shura on the Qinglong Hall warship from time to time. But Yang Ning didn't even have a drop of blood on his shirt, under the bright sunshine, he just stood on the floating platform in the heart of the river with an indifferent expression, as if he was a simple young man who had nothing to do, enjoying the river scenery in the wind, and there was no trace of murderous intent, but everyone felt that their hearts seemed to be sinking into the abyss.

Demon Emperor, this is the real Demon Emperor, the same thought swelled up in everyone's hearts! They all looked at Yang Ning in a daze, motionless, and the river suddenly became extremely silent, except for the sound of the river flowing, and the low moans one after another, there was no other sound.

Like everyone else, even Ximen Rin, who was also from the Martial Arts Sect, was extremely shocked in his heart, and he naturally saw the martial arts used by Yang Ning clearly, first alarming Gu Yang with a thousand miles of transmission, and then taking advantage of the chaos in Qinglong Hall to suddenly attack, the thunderous attack broke through the outer defense, and then killed the water thieves in the inner defense with a feminine and weird flower finger, taking the opportunity to destroy the inner defense line of all the water thieves in Qinglong Hall in one fell swoop, and killed Gu Yang with a cotton palm technique, Gu Yang's death was miserable enough to shock any master present. Ximen Rin sighed secretly, he also knows these martial arts, and even the fire is deeper than Yang Ning, but he has absolutely no way to establish his authority in such a way, at this moment, he really understands the evaluation of his master back then, he is really not worthy of being a disciple of the Martial Arts Sect, only Yang Ning is the best candidate for the next sect master of the Martial Arts Sect.

An incomparably complicated look flashed in his eyes, and Ximen Rin raised his voice and said: "Zijing, come back, don't you still want to challenge Boss Chu?" His tone was a little playful, but his words seemed to be like throwing a stone into the water, almost all the water thieves were shocked, and they woke up from that strange atmosphere, and a low sound began to sound on the river, and almost all of them were talking to each other. And Yang Ning's gaze moved to Boss Chu, who was holding the big sword tightly and dumbfounded, and Wen Lao Er, who was standing beside him and kept wiping his sweat, and once again showed an indifferent smile.
