I don't know how long he was silent, Yang Ning nodded slightly at Boss Chu, and said loudly: "I am sincere, challenge Your Excellency, and please give me advice!" As soon as these words came out, Ximen Rin couldn't help frowning slightly, he was a little puzzled why Yang Ning was going to challenge that rough man, but it was also a good thing to be able to thwart the enemy's sharp edge before the battle, so he just sighed lightly, shook his head slightly and smiled bitterly, took a step back, made it clear that he would not stop Yang Ning's move, and also took the opportunity to leave the impression that Yang Ning's behavior was not related to Youji. Sure enough, his seemingly extremely secretive behavior made some of the water thieves with vicious eyes and deep scheming on their faces, and Ling Chong, who was standing beside him, also looked slightly moved, but he didn't say anything, just frowned and fell into deep thought. Of course, Yang Ning and Boss Chu are not smart people who can understand the meaning of his move, only Wen Jinru, the second leader and military advisor of the Skull Banner, has a look of realization flashing in his eyes.

At this time, Boss Chu finally couldn't stand the pressure brought by Yang Ning's scorching gaze, swallowed a mouthful of spit, suddenly reached out and pushed away the water thief who was blocking the way, and jumped onto the boat, although his body was stupid, but his movements were very agile, although he was holding a big sword, but it fell on the fast boat that was traveling, and the boat that could only accommodate three or four people only shook lightly a few times, Boss Chu raised his sword and patted the little water thief at the helm, and said loudly: " What kind of daze, the Demon Emperor actually took the initiative to challenge Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu still refused, up and down the river, whether it is a big boss sitting on the ground, or a brother who walks on the gang, who has such a big face? What are you doing in a daze, don't you row a boat for Lao Tzu quickly. ”

Wen Jinru was originally thinking about why Ximen Rin intended to isolate Yang Ning, but when he heard the words, he felt as if he had been hit by a thunderbolt on a sunny day, and he naturally knew that the bosses had a temperament, although they were rude and reckless, but they were the most righteous and magnanimous. If it weren't for that, although it was this reckless man who rescued him from the pursuit of the enemy, he might not be able to let himself wholeheartedly assist and cross the river. Now that he saw that Boss Chu was going to fight Yang Ning, just looking at the martial arts means of the young Demon Emperor who took Gu Yang's life in the midst of the siege, he already knew that even if ten or eight Boss Chu were tied together, he would definitely die.

Although he understood it in his heart, he knew that he was powerless, he could only watch Boss Chu go to the floating platform by boat, and a strong sense of humiliation arose in his heart, and suddenly his heart moved, Wen Jinru thought of the only possible way to solve the crisis in front of him, and after a little thought, he deliberately showed a look of grief and indignation, and said loudly: " Emperor Zun don't want to deceive people too much, if you talk about identity and martial arts, the big boss and the emperor can be said to be a world apart, if the emperor wants to challenge, he should also favor those famous masters, but why are we embarrassed by those little people who can only wave the flag and shout. If it is not bad as expected, does the emperor want to defeat us and others before the alliance leader arrives? Just now, Gu Tang Master has been attacked and killed by your honor, and now your Excellency is going to bully the weak and embarrass our boss Chu in full view, is it not the intention to take the lead and cut off the wings of the alliance leader? Next, will your Excellency still challenge the leaders of the Tianyu Alliance, the Yang Gang, the Flying Fish Hall, and the Jinfan Club?"

Although Wen Jinru's tone showed weakness, but it was a hidden needle, although these water thieves were still afraid of Yang Ning's martial arts methods, but they also gave birth to the same hatred of the enemy, some people thought more far-reaching, if they didn't dare to deal with Yang Ning's step-by-step pressing, and wait until the arrival of Dongyang Hou and the people in the white road, if they were helpless, if they took advantage, I am afraid that from now on, the Yangtze River water thieves will no longer have a way to put up a fight in front of those people in the white road, let alone want to extort money as before.

Just when these water thieves were moving, and even many people took off their bows and arrows without waiting for the leader's orders, and pointed to the floating platform, a cold voice sounded on the river: " It's not just Master Gu and Master Chu Hui, just before coming here, this Zijing Gongzi had already killed my third brother with a gesture, the three masters of the Tianyu League, Rolling River Dragon Sui Xiang, Zijing Gongzi, regardless of whether you are the Shiwu Emperor or not, but you are always a Jianghu person, when, there is such a rule in the rivers and lakes, you can kill the messenger of the war book, the two armies are fighting, and they don't kill the envoys, not to mention the rivers and lakes, if Your Excellency doesn't give me an understanding, I'm afraid that I Hanshui Flying Eagle Duan Tianqun will have to offend!"

Almost at the same time as this person spoke, everyone's eyes had moved to the largest warship, even Yang Ning was no exception, his eyesight was excellent, although he was more than twenty zhang away, he still saw everything on the ship clearly. The deck of this warship was full of heavily armed yellow-clothed warriors, each holding his sword solemnly, awe-inspiring, and at first sight he knew that he was a well-trained warrior, but on the high platform, there were two chairs, and on the middle one sat a middle-aged man, dressed in a purple robe, holding a golden cup, with a handsome appearance, a lazy expression, and a calm bearing, not like a water thief leader, but like a hero, and on a chair slightly behind him sat a gray-clothed showman, thin and handsome, with long eyebrows and slender eyes, a cinnabar mole in his left eyebrow, and a gold-painted folding fan in his hand。 It was the middle-aged man who asked the question, although he was angry with every word, but his expression did not change significantly, as if he was just gossiping about some common things, rather than asking the murderer who killed his cronies and siblings.

Yang Ning just glanced at the middle-aged man lightly, and his eyes fell on the gray-clothed showman, looking at each other, the gray-clothed showman smiled and nodded, as if greeting his friend and returning the salute, but a trace of coldness and ridicule flashed in Yang Ning's eyes, and he looked at the purple-robed man again, and turned his hand to the sky, but it was Lai's appearance that he had to pay attention to these two people, Rao is the purple-robed man has always boasted of his broad-mindedness, and the gray-clothed showman is resourceful and scheming, and he also has a hatred of being despised in his heart.

At this time, Ximen Rin had already said sharply: "When I mentioned this matter, I was about to ask the Duan Alliance Master, since Sui Xiang is your third brother, then you also taught him to speak without saying anything and insult the Fire Phoenix County Lord Yingling?"

The purple-robed man frowned deeply when he heard this, and felt that he had nothing to answer, he had already learned the truth from Jin Changkong's mouth, but he didn't understand why Sui Xiang would speak disrespectfully and die on the river, it was because Sui Xiang was jealous first, he had been forbearing, even though Sui Xiang was his trusted general, he did not ask Ximen Rin and others for this. It's just that he had already secretly accepted the Tang family's invitation two months ago, as long as he helped Shi Ming complete the task of intercepting and killing Ximen Rin this time, he could officially enter the imperial court and be a general in a dignified manner, for this purpose, he couldn't watch Yang Ning stand up here anyway, so he would rather take the risk of angering Ximen Rin and the others, but also find a reason to disturb Yang Ning's challenge. It's just that when it came to the end, he was still a little jealous, but he didn't know how to answer correctly, so he couldn't help but look sideways at the gray-clothed Xiushi.

The gray-clothed showman's expression remained unchanged, as if he didn't notice it, but the folding fan shook lightly a few times, and he had already taken over the conversation and raised his voice: " How could the commander of Ximen be so strong, who on the river does not know that my third brother Sui Xiang has a rough temperament and has always been reckless, the commander of Ximen is a nobleman, why would he be embarrassed with the third brother, I don't know what words he said, offended the county lord Yingling, the commander of Ximen might as well make it clear, if Jiangdong Haojie thinks that my third brother is innocent of death, then my god operator Jing Feiyu is also willing to commit suicide to apologize, if it is the commander who takes advantage of the past to make trouble, don't blame our Tianyu Alliance for being ruthless, if you let Youji survive, let me Tianyu Alliance scatter and sink into the sand。 ”

Hearing such a vicious oath from his second brother Jing Feiyu, Duan Tianqun felt a little unhappy in his heart, although he knew that Ximen Rin would never say Sui Xiang's words in public, after all, those taboos can only be understood, not spoken, even Ximen Rin, before Youji and the royal family officially turned their faces, they did not dare to publicly put "Xinling" and "Holy Martyr Grand Imperial Concubine" It was humiliating, but even so, he still felt that Jing Feiyu was too presumptuous, no matter how the Tianyu Alliance was created by him, that is, it was to be scattered, and it should be caused by him, although Jing Feiyu is also a veteran of the alliance, but it is arrogant to swear with the Tianyu Alliance. However, seeing Ximen Rin's instantly blue look, Duan Tianqun became a little happy, thinking that soon after, the Tianyu Alliance would also be "purged" or "infighting" according to the usual practice, in short, it would no longer exist in the world, so he let it go, but instead smiled, and echoed: "My second brother is right, if the Ximen Commander has real evidence to prove that my third brother is disrespectful to the county lord, that's it, if not, the alliance will not be able to seek justice from your Excellency later." What's more, even if my third brother is really wrong, if the commander of Ximen kills him with his own hands, the leader of this alliance has no choice but to admit it, this prince of Zijing is said to be the assassin who assassinated the prince of Yan, but why did he kill his brother, could it be that this person belongs to Youji, is the assassination of His Royal Highness the prince a thief shouting to catch a thief?"

After only listening to these few words, Ximen Rin already sneered in his heart, and raised his voice: "If Your Excellency thinks that what Brother Ling said is not inappropriate, I don't know if you dare to say it in public." How respectful is the identity of the county lord, that Sui Xiang is just a water coward who does all kinds of evil, he dares to mention the name of the county lord repeatedly, and he is even more contemptuous, this seat only hates that he did not kill this person with his own hands, and the Duan League Lord still wants to ask what evidence, it is really ridiculous. Zijing, this person still wants to ask why you want to kill that disrespectful Sui Xiang, accusing you of belonging to my Youji, the previous entanglement is just a cover-up move, do you have any excuses, you might as well tell these two!"

Yang Ning was already cold-faced, he couldn't tolerate someone being rude to his mother, although he didn't know a lot of truth, but he also knew that Sui Xiang's words that day would inevitably make his mother hateful, so he would take the initiative to kill, today Duan Tianqun and Jing Feiyu actually quibbled in front of him, and slandered him for colluding with Luo Chengyu, how could he not make him resentful, but as soon as his mind turned, he still couldn't make up his mind to admit his identity, so he had to close his eyes slightly, so that the killing intent in his heart gradually faded, for a moment, he opened his eyes, looked up and looked around, a pair of deep and cold wind eyes seemed to be burning with flames from hell, he said coldly: "Killing people is a common thing, where you need any excuse, let alone any grudge with me. Sui Xiang is arrogant and rude, naturally wants to kill, Gu Yang insulted me, made provocative words, and should be killed, the two of them turned upside down, and dared to ask me for the crime, and they wanted to kill, if I didn't let you Tianyu League Jiangshui remove the name today, I would be in vain for the martial arts sect, although the two of you are not worthy of fighting with me, but if you have the courage to challenge today, I will fulfill you and give you a chance to show your strengths. ”

Listening to his answer, not only did all the water thieves look at each other, but even Ximen Rin and Ling Chong frowned slightly, even Ximen Rin, who originally had the intention of letting Yang Ning offend all these water thieves, also had a sense of hatred that iron could not become steel, and couldn't help but want to reprimand a few words about his ignorant nephew, but before the words came out, he remembered his original intention, and hurriedly coughed a few times and swallowed the words back.

Duan Tianqun's face couldn't help but change greatly when he heard this, he never thought that this young man was unreasonable at all, and he actually involved himself, but in this case, if he showed weakness and retreated, the reputation of the Tianyu Alliance would be completely destroyed, thinking of this, he subconsciously turned his head to look at Jing Feiyu, but saw that Jing Feiyu had a faint sweat on his head, and he was actually flustered like he had never been. Duan Tianqun had always relied on Jing Feiyu's decision, and he was also terrified when he saw this, and he regretted that he had put himself in such an embarrassing situation in order to serve the Tang Clan.

Just when Duan Tianqun and Jing Feiyu were in a dilemma, they saw that Boss Chu had already boarded the floating platform, brandished the giant sword in his hand, and said angrily: "Thief bird, aren't you challenging Lao Tzu, why haven't you started to challenge the surname Duan again, Lao Tzu looks down on those cowards who only know how to shoot people's farts in his life, hey, if you want to kill them, you have to wait until after fighting Lao Tzu, you thief and bird have no one in your eyes, don't you look down on Lao Tzu?"

Yang Ning retracted his eyes full of cold murderous intentions, and looked at Boss Chu who was full of anger, although this person's words were vulgar, a thief and a bird, even with Yang Ning's ignorance of the world, he knew that this was definitely not a good thing, but strange, he didn't feel annoyed at all, compared to other people's previous and backward respects, using respect to cover up the disguise of fear, this rough man's attitude after knowing his identity as always, but it made him feel a little kind. Thinking of this, he smiled slightly.

Unexpectedly, his bright smile after killing Gu Yang had already become a symbol of death in the eyes of all the water thieves, as soon as he saw Yang Ning smiling again at this time, almost everyone thought that this young demon emperor was already extremely angry, presumably the shot must be like thunder, life and death, Wen Jinru was already sweating like rain, but he couldn't think of any way to stop Yang Ning from making a move, and when he looked around, he saw those allies who looked at each other but didn't dare to come forward, and then saw Boss Chu, who was still there to show off his might, as if he was not afraid at all, he only gritted his teeth with hatred, and traces of blood seeped out from the corners of his mouth。

At this moment, a hoarse and low voice, but with a bit of femininity, suddenly sounded on the silent river: "Stupid, stupid, since you have made an appointment to decide the winner of ten battles, now Dongyang Hou has not come, what are you anxious about, are you still afraid that no one will fight you, but he is just a fledgling hairy boy, is he really what kind of martial emperor and demon emperor he is? Jiangdong heroes are like clouds, if you want to kill, you have to find a few powerful ones, why persimmons only know how to pick soft pinch, don't you know what is shooting people and horses first, and catching thieves and catching kings first?"

All the water thieves have the urge to reach out and touch whether their chin has fallen, at this time, everyone can see that unless they are swarmed up, there is no master who can defeat this young demon emperor here, there is no master of Dongyang Hou and Bai Dao, and they can't provoke a scuffle, otherwise they will inevitably highlight the encirclement for Ximen Rin and others, and then the revenge of Yanshanwei and Fengtai Pavilion will make them unforgettable for life, but if they wait until Dongyang Hou and they arrive, through wheel warfare and various means, these people will be annihilated in one fell swoop, which can completely hit the arrogance of Youji, Ximen Rin dies, Youji will inevitably be chaotic for a period of time, and when they have time to retaliate, I'm afraid it's too late, who in the world doesn't know that the war between Youji and the royal family and the Tang clan is likely to break out after the prince of Yan ascends the throne?

In this case, these heroes who originally ravaged the river and water either waited patiently, or the two masters of the Tianyu Alliance, the head of the six great Kou, even put aside the hatred of their righteous brother being killed for the time being, and did not dare to go up to challenge, although this made everyone despise in their hearts, but they also admitted that this was the most correct approach. They originally felt that Yang Ning challenged Boss Chu precisely because Boss Chu was disrespectful, and he already knew what the truth of misfortune was in his mouth, that is, Duan Tianqun and Jing Feiyu did not dare to speak disrespectfully when they asked for the crime, as for Boss Chu is still so rude now, everyone thinks that he is a broken jar, but at this time, there are still people who dare to speak sarcastically, and they are "stupid" and "stupid" to insult the young Demon Emperor, and they don't care about any taboos, and directly call Yang Ning "Demon Emperor", which really makes them dumbfounded.

It's just that when these water thieves found out who the person who spoke was, they all suddenly realized that now on this river, if there are still people who dare to come forward, there will only be a stunned backstage Jinfan meeting who speaks.

Yang Ning heard the hoarse voice, and somehow felt a movement in his heart, and couldn't help but turn his head to look, but he looked into a pair of eyes as bright as autumn water, he only felt a bang in his head, if it weren't for the strong dissatisfaction revealed in those bright eyes, he almost jumped over, almost forgetting that he was in full view, and there was a reckless man waiting for him to make a move.

I saw that on the outermost side of the east, on the high platform of a warship farthest away from the floating platform, a man in black at the age of thirty-seven or eighteen was standing with his hands in his hands, this man flew obliquely with sword eyebrows, with a pair of eagle eyes, a scar on his left cheek, and his hair was only tied with a red belt, which destroyed the appearance that should have been quite handsome, he was dressed in a black power suit, covered with a black Shu brocade cloak, the river breeze blew, the cloak hunted and flew, and sometimes revealed the scarlet lining. This man did not wear a sword or sword, but carried a black longbow, and a gold-painted quiver hung from his waist, although this man was handsome, but a pair of eagle eyes were hazy, and he yawned a few times from time to time, and he always looked lazy and helpless, but this did not lower the evaluation of him by others, in the eyes of everyone, he was more like a dormant cheetah, extremely dangerous.

This warship is also different from other warships, the hull is obviously slender and long, and the water thieves on the ship are of similar age, basically around thirty years old, all of them are in the prime of life, all of them are wearing strong suits, carrying long bows, hanging a single sword and arrow bag at their waists, covered with a short cloak in black and red, and a red brocade belt on their foreheads. These water thieves are neither as awe-inspiring as the water thieves under the Tianyu Alliance, nor like the water thieves of the Skull Society, who are a rabble at first sight, although they are only gathered together in twos and threes, they are loose on the outside and tight on the inside, faintly forming a battle formation, echoing each other, and the discerning people know at a glance that these water thieves must be bandits who have lived and died together for many years, and are like brothers and sisters. Such a strong force, although it seems to be only one hundred and eighty people, is by no means easy to offend.

And it was a young man standing behind this man who reprimanded Yang Ning loudly, this young man was not tall, slightly thin, pale yellow, and looked extremely inconspicuous, only a pair of phoenix eyes were bright and clear, which made his ordinary appearance a little more brilliant. This young man was holding a five-color flag in his arms, and he was responsible for passing on the military orders, mostly with the flag, and at first sight, he knew that this young man was the entourage of Yi Buping, the master of the Jinfan Society, who was specifically responsible for passing military orders.

Seeing Yang Ning looking over, his expression became a little dumbfounded, as if he was a wooden chicken clay puppet, the yellow-faced young man sneered, and then continued: "Look at what I do, stupid is stupid, what do you meddle in other people's affairs, is it funny to offend the heroes of Jiangshang? You really think that you are some kind of demon emperor, but you are a fool, I don't know who you fell for, do you want to prevent disasters for others? You want to challenge, you challenge our big brother Yi, challenge that reckless man to do!"

When the last sentence came out, Yi Buping also shook his head with a smile, stretched out his hand and gave the young man a violent shudder, and said with a wry smile: "Are you kid afraid that I won't die, but I taught you a lesson yesterday, so I want to find someone to be angry for you?"

At this moment, it was the person who was forced to calm himself, and he was also dumbfounded, his eyes turned around on Yi Buping and the yellow-faced young man, and he didn't know whether it was this young man who was talking nonsense and being bold and presumptuous, or Yi Buping pretending to be ready to take the lead. If the Jinfan Club is ready to come out, then they can rest assured, you must know that although the Jinfan Club is only ranked sixth among the six major Kou, but above the river, black and white, it is better to offend the Tianyu Alliance than to offend the Jinfan Society, if it is a real sword and real gun fight, the Jinfan Club is the strongest water Kou on the river, the reason why it ranks last among the six major Shui Kou, is just because the number of Jinfan Club is always less than 100 people, and it seems to be weak.

When everyone was puzzled, Yi Buping had already clasped his fists on the floating platform and said: " Although Zijing Gongzi is not the emperor, but as a disciple of your sect, he is so generous, he will inherit the position of the suzerain of your sect in the future, and be promoted to the position of Emperor Wu, which is also just around the corner, how can he bully the weak, and challenge the master of Chu by name, although the lord of Chu will be reckless, but he is a rare good man on the river, although the killing is heavier, but for the real common people, he is always innocent, although he is not disrespectful, and please read that the master of Chu will not mean to do so, give up this duel, if you are determined to stand up, then Yi is willing to fight on behalf of the master of Chu, I don't know what your intention is？”

When Yi Buping taught the yellow-faced boy a lesson, a pair of cold star-like, cold-like deep eyes became calm and cold, and he no longer saw Fang Cai's angry flames, Yang Ning's originally somewhat wooden expression became more and more indifferent, hearing that Yi Buping was neither humble nor arrogant, but faintly with domineering words, his expression did not change in the slightest, but he glanced at Yi Buping lightly, and then turned his head to look at the bitter face that was there, holding the giant sword, I don't know whether I made a good shot, or quickly took the opportunity to step down Boss Chu, bowed slightly, and said lightly: "The disciples of this sect have just come out of the master's door, they must go through the real fire to refine it, before they become the quality of gold and jade, in the first trial, they deliberately choose the master of the alchemy fire, this is an extremely prudent thing, it is not a random choice, there are thousands of people on this river, but except for Your Excellency, no one has this qualification, Your Excellency does not need to be arrogant, and you are not sure to kill Your Excellency today. ”

There are quite a few people who can understand these words, even those who don't understand them, and they also know that Yang Ning is saying that Boss Chu's martial arts are unfathomable, so almost all of them turned their heads and stared at Boss Chu who looked confused, but no matter how they looked at it, they couldn't see where this reckless man had the bearing of a top master, and couldn't help but look at each other, especially Ximen Rin, who was the one who best understood the meaning of Yang Ning's words, and carefully looked Boss Chu up and down for a long time, but he still couldn't see any flaws.

Even Ximen Rin couldn't see it, let alone other people, these water thieves were staring at Yang Ning and Boss Chu tightly, their eyes were full of curiosity, and they were looking forward to Yang Ning explaining, even Boss Chu himself wanted to know what kind of magic skills he had that made Yang Ning so concerned. It's just that everyone frowned and didn't dare to ask, after all, Yang Ningyi looked like a taciturn but ruthless person, and it was extremely rare for him to be able to explain the reason why he challenged Boss Chu, and he had to continue to explain, they didn't have this confidence and face. And Ximen Rin, the only one who dared to ask in everyone's minds, was used to forbearance, and would never talk too much, just silently thinking about what he had missed.
