Chapter 261 Zhang Xiaohua wants to marry Xie Lingyun?

Xiaodou Ding talked a lot, but Zhang Chen only heard one key point:
Three thousand soldiers?

Are there any martial arts masters who have cultivated their qi and blood?
Hearing this, Zhang Chen immediately became energetic, and his eyes instantly lit up: Isn't this giving myself experience?
If you say that, he won't be sleepy anymore.

He was not afraid of the other party sending a large army. As long as he fired quietly, no matter how many people the other party had, they would all be killed.

Even if there is a martial arts master who has cultivated qi and blood, Zhang Chen is not afraid. He has the invisibility technique and the immobilization talisman, and most importantly, he has the ability to regenerate severed limbs. As long as he is willing to get injured, he can kill the powerful martial arts master as long as the opponent does not smash his head or shatter his crystal core.

"It's a pity that I can't control other people's blood, otherwise even thousands of troops would be nothing more than blood banks in my eyes." Zhang Chen muttered.

It was still the familiar morning class. Zhang Xiaohua stood there, reciting scriptures with her fellow disciples. However, Wei Yingwu had returned to the Taoist temple at some point, and mingled with Zhang Xiaohua. He stood beside Zhang Xiaohua with a flattering look on his face, like a lackey, squatting down and saying something.

"Many senior brothers in the Taoist temple have returned." Zhang Chen looked at the familiar faces in the Taoist temple with a hint of surprise in his eyes.

"The Taoist temple competition is about to begin. Of course, those disciples who have gone down the mountain want to rush back to participate in the competition. It is said that the sect will bleed a lot of money in this competition. The winner can not only be promoted, but also obtain a mysterious item and the blessing of the water god, becoming a subordinate priest of the water god and becoming a god in one step." The little bean's voice was full of resentment: "It's a pity that I can't participate."

Zhang Chen's heart moved when he heard this. The sect competition was an opportunity for him. If he could stand out and obtain a higher level of Qigong practice method, wouldn't he have achieved his goal?
After the morning class, Zhang Chen was thinking about sneaking out of the Taoist temple, looking for a secret place to set up the Nine Bends of the Yellow River formation, and then entering the Wangchuan River to explore the bottom. But who knew that the temple master Liu Feng came out of the house and called Zhang Chen: "Zhang Chen, the nobleman is coming to the Taoist temple today, you should be ready to welcome him."

The noble person Liu Feng was talking about was of course Xie Lingyun. After hearing what Liu Feng said, Zhang Chen nodded: "Disciple understands."

Liu Feng came to Zhang Chen and said, "You must remember to please Commander Xie and find a way to join the Inspection Office. If you can join the Inspection Office, it will be a great achievement for you."

Hearing Liu Feng's words, Zhang Chen nodded: "Disciple will remember this."

Liu Feng nodded in satisfaction after hearing this: "It's just that there is one thing I need you to do."

"Please give your instructions, Master." Zhang Chen said.

"Zhang Xiaohua wants to pursue Xie Lingyun. I hope you can create opportunities for her and speak well of Zhang Xiaohua in front of Xie Lingyun." Liu Feng said.

Hearing Liu Feng's words, Zhang Chen's pupils shrank. He finally understood why Zhang Xiaohua had put aside their past grudges and resolved their feud with him. It turned out that she was waiting for him here.

He was wondering before, with Zhang Xiaohua's vindictive temper, how could she easily give up with him? Especially now that the other party has an absolute advantage, based on his understanding of the other party, he will never let him go, it turns out that he is waiting for him here.

"Do you understand?" Liu Feng asked again.

"Master, you are making things difficult for me. How can I have the qualifications to speak in front of Commander Xie, let alone talk about such an important matter as marriage." Zhang Chen said unhappily.

"Do your best. I see Commander Xie thinks highly of you. I don't know what it is about you that makes Commander Xie so worthy of your attention." Liu Feng looked Zhang Chen up and down, a puzzled look in his eyes.

Facing Liu Feng's scrutiny, Zhang Chen just smiled shyly: "Maybe it's because Commander Xie thinks I'm naive and a good person."

The temple master curled his lips when he heard this. If this was the only reason, then wouldn’t the people appreciated by Commander Xie be countless all over the world?

After Liu Feng gave his instructions, he went about his business, but halfway through, he met Zhang Xiaohua.

"Junior Brother Zhang." Liu Feng called out from a distance.

Zhang Xiaohua stopped and saluted Liu Feng: "Greetings, Senior Brother Master."

"Xie Lingyun is here, your chance has come." Liu Feng said in a low voice.

Zhang Xiaohua's eyes lit up when she heard this, and then she showed joy: "Where is Xie Lingyun?"

"Zhang Chen's place." Liu Feng said.

"I'll go visit him right now, and then I'll meet Xie Lingyun by chance. Once we get to know each other, things will be settled, right?" Zhang Xiaohua said with a happy look on her face.

"Junior brother, don't worry. I have already informed Zhang Chen and he will cooperate with you." Liu Feng said.

After Zhang Chen and Liu Feng parted ways, they returned to their own houses, comprehending the art of combining sand and thinking about where to find the materials for practicing it. Now they had a direction for the material of 'sand', but they still lacked the raw material of 'wind'.

Just as Zhang Chen was thinking about it, Xie Lingyun arrived.

Not only Xie Lingyun was there alone, but there were thousands of soldiers accompanying Xie Lingyun all the way into the mountains.

Every time Xie Lingyun came, he would mobilize a large army. The warriors in black armor would constantly check every corner of the Taoist temple to prevent anyone from plotting something bad.

Zhang Chen and Xiao Douding had been waiting at the gate to greet her. When they saw Xie Lingyun, they raised their hands and saluted: "Hello, sister. Every time you go out, you always make a big fuss. It's really enviable."

Xie Lingyun smiled helplessly when he heard this: "I don't want this to happen either, but now with the appearance of warriors who have cultivated Qi and blood, our lives are going to be difficult. Once a Qi and blood warrior gets within ten steps of us, cultivators below the Yang God level will not be able to react at all and will be killed in one blow."

Hearing Xie Lingyun's words, Zhang Chen was secretly surprised. He didn't expect that the emergence of warriors who cultivated qi and blood would actually change the current situation.

"Especially since I heard people say there is evil spirits going on at the foot of Huangli Temple, we need to bring more guards for self-defense." Xie Lingyun said.

As they talked, the three of them walked into the house. Xie Lingyun casually looked around the furnishings in the house. After seeing that the two were living well, he said, "I feel relieved to see that you are living well in the mountains. Are you continuing your martial arts practice?"

Zhang Chen shook his head. Xie Lingyun said, "You still have to practice martial arts. It is said that martial arts has taken a new path. There is a martial arts grandmaster who uses dragon blood to bathe in, refines qi and blood, and actually studies the mystery of acupoints. It is said that martial arts will take a new path, and its power is even higher than that of the soul method. Martial arts are worth your energy to study." "Acupoint method?" Zhang Chen was stunned.

"It is said that the acupoints throughout the human body have mysterious powers. When combined with the martial arts qi and blood, the human body will undergo incredible changes. Zhou Chuan, the number one martial artist in the world, successfully broke through the barrier a few days ago. He actually used the martial arts qi and blood to disperse the soul of a powerful Yin God and killed the Yin God. Zhou Chuan was hunted down by the family behind the Yin God, and seeing that his life was in danger, he simply spread the secret method of the martial arts acupoints throughout the world." Xie Lingyun said.

Zhang Chen was shocked when he heard this. There was indeed no shortage of talented people in this world. As long as he was given a little hope, he could create a brilliant and glorious world.

"How is Zhou Chuan now? Is he still alive?" Zhang Chen asked.

"This person is extremely talented, it's not that easy for him to die. Besides, all the major families have been secretly trying to find his whereabouts for the sake of the acupoint secrets. They will never let him die so easily before squeezing out his value." Xie Lingyun's voice was full of emotion: "The Inspection Office has also taken action in this matter and seized a method for acupoint measurement. The old guys in the Inspection Office have awakened from their slumber and are constantly deducing the acupoint method to see if they can deduce a new path."

Zhang Chen was secretly shocked, for he had never heard of this acupoint method, not even in the ancient times.

However, the human body is a small world. Every acupoint has infinite mysteries and contains enormous energy. If it can be developed, it will truly be a bright road.

"This Zhou Chuan is incredible." Zhang Chen sighed.

"This person is a martial arts fanatic. He is extremely talented and a true martial arts expert. He has already achieved the pinnacle of martial arts, unlike us who need the help of visualization. It is said that he had obtained the visualization method in the past, but he did not practice it. He was proud and insisted on taking the true martial arts path to open up a great road for martial artists in the world. When he was thirty years old, his martial arts skills reached the pinnacle. After achieving the pinnacle of martial arts, he began to challenge the experts in the world, hoping to break through the line between life and death and open up a path for martial artists in the world. Unfortunately, he wasted thirty years and gained nothing. During these thirty years, his peers in the past broke through with the help of visualization and mastered the mysterious extraordinary power. His defeated opponents also surpassed him one after another, but this person remained unmoved."

Xie Lingyun's voice was full of awe: "He traveled among famous mountains and rivers, looked up at the vastness of the world, looked down at the abundance of species, fought against huge waves in the sea, and killed monsters outside the Great Wall of Bones. In such a short period of 30 years, his energy and blood gradually declined, but he still did not change his ways, nor did he change his will, and refused to step into the mysterious road."

“After the news of the birth of the dragon’s flesh and blood and the mysterious qi and blood spread, he risked his life to kill a direct descendant of a large family, and then provoked the Yin Shen Zhenren to personally hunt him down. But who knew that he had actually mastered the method of acupoints, and with just one punch he killed the Yin Shen strongman and killed him.” Xie Lingyun’s eyes were full of awe.

Zhang Chen was filled with admiration when he heard this. This was a true strong man. Not only did he have the heart of a strong man, he also had an indomitable will.

While the two were talking, the guard outside the door suddenly reported: "Sir, there is a man outside the door who wants to see you. He said he is Master Zhang's uncle."

Zhang Xiaohua came to Zhang Chen's door carrying a jar of wine, but was stopped by the guards: "Master, this place is under control, please go back."

"Do you know who I am?" Zhang Xiaohua asked after being stopped.

"No matter who you are, you can't go in now. Just because you are a Taoist priest, you think you can take a shortcut to get close to the nobleman? I have seen too many people like you. You'd better go back to where you came from." The guard replied with contempt in his voice: "Young man, don't always think about taking shortcuts. The nobleman is not someone you can cling to. Do you think you are Zhang Chen? Why don't you take a piss and look at yourself? How can you compare with Zhang Chen? If an ugly freak like you goes in, you will definitely scare the nobleman. Get out of here quickly and don't stay here."

Zhang Xiaohua's body trembled with anger after hearing that. She sneered, "You are really a dog who looks down on people. Go tell the people inside that his uncle wants to see him. If you don't go and let your master know, he will definitely punish you. Whether I am worthy of going in is not something you, a lackey, can decide."

The guard glanced at Zhang Xiaohua and saw her arrogant attitude. After a little hesitation, he decided to go in and report.

Xie Lingyun turned his head to look at Zhang Chen. Zhang Chen came to his senses and realized that the person coming must be Zhang Xiaohua. He didn't expect that Zhang Xiaohua would actually catch up to him.

"The person outside the door is Zhang Xiaohua, the prince of Pingbian Palace. He has joined the Huangtian Dao and his status is one generation higher than mine." Zhang Chen explained to Xie Lingyun.

Xie Lingyun was surprised when he heard this: "He found your trace, but he didn't attack you?"

"Because he has bigger goals and greater ambitions, of course he won't attack me." Zhang Chen sneered.

Xie Lingyun was stunned when he heard this: "What plans does he have for you?"

"Of course he has no plans against me, but he has bad intentions towards my sister. He wants to use me to get close to my sister." Zhang Chen did not hesitate to expose Zhang Xiaohua's little thoughts.

"Why are you approaching me?" Xie Lingyun was puzzled.

"Because he wants to marry my sister. This guy is just a toad wanting to eat swan flesh. How can he be worthy of my sister?" Zhang Chen sneered.

Xie Lingyun did not laugh when he heard this, but looked thoughtful.

Looking at Xie Lingyun's expression, Zhang Chen couldn't help but panic: "Sister, what's that expression on your face? Are you moved?"

"There are not many people in the North who are worthy of me. Zhang Xiaohua is one of them. However, he has a conflict with you, my brother, so I won't consider him." Xie Lingyun smiled.

Zhang Chen nodded upon hearing this, and felt relieved.

Zhang Chen said to the guard, "Tell him to go back and tell him that I am meeting a guest and don't have time to see him. Tell him to come back another day."

The guard withdrew upon hearing this and came to the door, where he saw Zhang Xiaohua standing outside with a jar of wine, waiting eagerly. For him, this was a rare opportunity to get close to Xie Lingyun.

He just needs to find an excuse to meet Zhang Chen, and then he will naturally meet Xie Lingyun. Then he can take the opportunity to say hello to Xie Lingyun. After getting to know each other better, won't they gradually become familiar with each other?
By then, with my identity and status, will it be difficult for me to take down Xie Lingyun?

As for whether Zhang Chen would refuse to meet him, he never doubted it. He thought that if he didn't bother with a poor boy, it would be a great blessing for his ancestors. How could he dare not give him face?
Moreover, the temple master also said that he had secretly informed Zhang Chen, so he had never thought about being rejected.

When the guard came out, Zhang Xiaohua was about to walk into Zhang Chen's yard with a happy look on her face, but she was stopped by the guard: "Master Taoist, you can't go in. The people inside said they don't have time to see you."

Zhang Xiaohua immediately became anxious upon hearing this. She felt ashamed and embarrassed to be stopped outside the door. A surge of anger rose in her heart, but she still forced herself to calm down: "Who are you asking about? But the little Taoist priest? Did he say he didn't want to see me?"

"Yes, that's what the young Taoist priest said. He told you to leave quickly and not disturb him and the nobleman from reminiscing about the past." The guard said in a cold and hard voice.
