Laughing at the Heavens: From Flying Knife Skills to Shattering the Void

Chapter 186: Leader, why don’t you keep Dongfang Bubai?

"What a fast needle!"

"What a quick knife!"

Fang Zheng and Chongxu looked at each other, and both were shocked.

Although they were confident that they could avoid it, it was impossible for them to save others like Lin Pingan did.

Under Dongfang Bubai's flying needles, they could only protect themselves and had no energy left to save others.

However, at this moment, Dongfang Bubai and Lin Pingan looked at each other, but they did not care about other people's opinions.

"You are making great progress. It's rare for someone to have such strength. I'd like to see it."

Before Dongfang Bubai could finish his words, he had disappeared, leaving only a shadow behind.

Lin Ping'an's pupils shrank sharply. Although he had already expected that Dongfang Bubai would be extremely fast and had been prepared for it, Dongfang Bubai's speed still shocked him.

"As expected, he is the fastest man in the world!"

Lin Ping'an sighed secretly, and the Zixia magic skill suddenly started to work. Purple air rushed towards him, and he swept his sword across with surging sword energy.

Dangdang Dangdang!
In just the blink of an eye, the two men had exchanged dozens of moves.

Although Lin Ping'an's body movement speed is not as fast as Dongfang Bubai, he can respond to changes with the same method. Dongfang Bubai appears in all directions, and his moves are so fast that it is hard to keep up.

Many people only saw a series of afterimages, or even saw several Dongfang Bubai at the same time.

Lin Ping'an used his sword skills to break Dongfang Bubai's offensive.

Up and down, left and right, front and back.

The two sides fought so fast that it was hard to keep up. All one could hear was the intensive sound of collisions, but could no longer see the specific moves.

"I didn't expect that Lin Ping'an could actually be on equal terms with Dongfang Bubai."

Seeing that Lin Ping'an had not fallen into a disadvantage after such a long time, many people's faces changed slightly and they were shocked.

Although there have always been such rumors, they have never been confirmed.

In fact, most people are skeptical.

After all, Dongfang Bubai's reputation is too great.

Although Lin Ping'an is very powerful and everyone praises him for being able to defeat Dongfang Bubai, it is just praise. Maybe he can do it in the future, but now people still think that Lin Ping'an is not strong enough to deal with him.

But this battle at this moment dispelled everyone's doubts.

In front of the whole world, Lin Pingan proved his strength.

At this moment, Lin Pingan had no time to be distracted.

Dongfang Bubai's speed was too fast. A silver needle was used with great skill in her hands. It was sharper than a sword and the angle was so tricky that it could not be compared with other weapons.

Fortunately, Lin Ping'an's current swordsmanship is at a high level, and his Zixia magic power has reached perfection. The improvement of various martial arts has made him extremely flexible, and with his profound skills, he can cope with it.

Lin Pingan was also frightened.

"This kid's progress is so fast. I have already shown 80% of my strength, but I can't even get close to him."

After hundreds of moves, Dongfang Bubai suddenly appeared on the roof of the main hall, thinking secretly in his heart.

With 80% of her strength, almost no one in the world can stop her.

Now Lin Pingan has accepted all of them.

"The Sunflower Manual is indeed a divine martial art. It is indestructible except for speed. Even Lin is still frightened!"

Lin Pingan raised his hand and shook the sword, saying with emotion.

"Hahaha, kid, there's no need for you to be so modest."

Dongfang Bubai chuckled, "No matter how fast it was, you still blocked it. Maybe I should have killed you last time. Now you have become a hidden danger."

There was some emotion in Dongfang Bubai's words.

His eyes flickered, and I don't know what he was thinking.

Lin Ping'an just smiled calmly and did not answer.

How could it be so easy to kill him?

"Master of Wulin, it seems that you guys really have some vision. You didn't underestimate him because of his age and chose a true master."

Dongfang Bubai glanced at the martial artists around him.

With Lin Ping'an's support, the group of people in the martial arts world who had been timid and cowering like quails gradually straightened their backs and said, "Dongfang Bubai, this is not the place for you to come. We are not afraid of you."

Zhen Shanzi of Kunlun Sect immediately spoke loudly.

Although he had doubts about Lin Pingan before, he now seemed to have completely forgotten about it.

Dongfang Bubai sneered and ignored Zhen Shanzi. He just said to Lin Pingan, "Lin Pingan, don't you want to know which prisoner of my Divine Religion escaped?"

"Since you have such strength, it would be fine for me to tell you."

"Oh? May I ask who caused the Eastern Patriarch to go to such great lengths?"

Lin Pingan asked curiously.

He had already guessed who Dongfang Bubai was talking about, but of course he couldn't reveal it at this moment.

"Let me do whatever I want. The previous leader of my religion lets me do whatever I want."

Dongfang Bubai no longer concealed the truth and directly said Ren Woxing's name.

"What? Ren Woxing? He's not dead yet?"

When this name came out, many people's faces changed, even Chongxu and Fangzheng frowned.

"Hasn't Ren Woxing been missing for more than ten years? How come he is still alive? I thought he was dead a long time ago!"

"That's right. With Ren Woxing's personality, how could he bear not to show up for so long? Now Dongfang Bubai actually said that Ren Woxing was a prisoner who escaped from the Demon Cult. Doesn't this mean that Ren Woxing has been imprisoned by them a long time ago?"

"Who on earth has the power to imprison Ren Woxing?"

"It seems that the rumors in the old martial arts world are true. Ren Woxing was indeed betrayed and killed by Dongfang Bubai, but he is imprisoned now!"

Everyone was talking about it, with serious expressions on their faces.

Dongfang Bubai became the leader of the Sun Moon Sect, and the disappearance of Ren Woxing had actually been speculated by the Central Plains martial arts community a long time ago.

This kind of thing is also very simple.

Whoever is the ultimate beneficiary will be the one with the greatest suspicion.

There is no doubt that in the affairs of the Sun and Moon Sect, the biggest beneficiary is naturally Dongfang Bubai, who became the leader of the sect.

However, the previous rumors were all groundless and speculation, with no evidence at all.

And all of them thought that Ren Woxing had been killed long ago.

After all, no matter who usurps the throne, he will be able to eliminate future troubles.

But I didn't expect that...

However, the reason why Dongfang Bubai did not kill Ren Woxing at the beginning was because she had not yet completely mastered the "Sunflower Manual". She kept Ren Woxing just in case, and maybe he could be useful and stabilize the Divine Religion.

In just a few years, Dongfang Bubai mastered the Book of the Sunflower and became stronger than Ren Woxing in the past, so naturally he no longer needed to use Ren Woxing.

Similarly, because of his powerful strength, he became confident and naturally didn't care about Ren Woxing's life or death. Therefore, even if Ren Woxing was no longer useful, Dongfang Bubai didn't kill him, but just ignored the affairs of Mei Zhuang.

It was as if he had completely forgotten about Ren Woxing and left him to fend for himself in the water dungeon.

The people of the righteous path were all shocked and even afraid. Even after more than a decade, Ren Woxing's influence still existed.

After all, people of their generation have all experienced the era of letting others do whatever they want.

Compared with Dongfang Bubai, Ren Woxing's strength may not be as terrifying as the current Dongfang Bubai.

But Ren Woxing practiced the Star-Absorbing Art, which was the nightmare of all the people in the martial arts world.

For people in the martial arts world, losing martial arts is more terrifying than losing one's life.

It is even more difficult to accept.

Therefore, although Dongfang Bubai is powerful and people dare not confront him, Ren Woxing is even more frightening.

The inner strength cultivated through a lifetime being taken away in just a few moments is enough to drive anyone crazy.

"Dongfang Bubai, what do you mean by this? Isn't Ren Woxing dead?"

Taoist Chongxu suddenly asked loudly.

Dongfang Bubai simply glanced at Chongxu and asked, "Do you think I am deceiving you?"

"The reason why our Divine Cult mobilized so heavily this time is to arrest Ren Woxing. In the past, Ren Woxing practiced the Star Absorbing Art and became possessed. He even killed many masters of our Divine Cult and has betrayed the Cult. However, I am merciful and do not want to kill him because he has served the Divine Cult all his life. I only imprisoned him. I didn't expect that he would escape."

"Given his personality, if he wants to recover his power, he must absorb the internal energy of others. Don't you realize it at all?"

Dongfang Bubai sneered.

In fact, Dongfang Bubai didn’t really care about Ren Woxing’s escape.

No matter how powerful his Star-Absorbing Art is, he is no longer the Dongfang Bubai of the past.

After hearing what Dongfang Bubai said, everyone's expression changed drastically and they looked solemn.

"Ren Woxing is back in action!"

Ning Zhongze also murmured to himself that Ren Woxing's Star-Absorbing Art could be said to be notorious.

At that time, countless people in the martial arts world had their life-long skills absorbed by him.

This caused the entire martial arts world to condemn him, but they were unable to do anything to the opponent, and his dominance lasted for an entire era.

It is natural that people would be afraid of him if he were to appear in the world again today.

"So that's how it is. No wonder Dongfang Cult Master is so nervous. If I'm not mistaken, Ren Woxing will seek revenge on you first, right? That's why the Sun Moon Cult is making such a big fuss, hoping to find Ren Woxing as soon as possible."

Lin Pingan said in a daze.

After all, every day Ren Woxing spends in the martial arts world means he can absorb the skills of one more master and become stronger.

Although the Star Absorbing Art also has its flaws, Ren Woxing became possessed because he absorbed the internal energy of too many people and was unable to digest it.

But no one knows whether, after more than ten years, Ren Woxing has made up for this shortcoming and the Star-Absorbing Art has become more perfect and powerful.

Ren Woxing was already a martial arts master, proficient in all kinds of martial arts, including fists, kicks, swords and knives. If he were given enough time, he might be able to perfect his skills.

"Hahaha... That's right, Ren Woxing will definitely seek revenge on me, but Ren Woxing is not a reckless person. He is arrogant because of his arrogant strength. Now he knows that he is no match for me, so he has been hiding from me. I think he wants to absorb more skills from more masters and become stronger before seeking revenge on me."

Dongfang Bubai had no intention of covering up or concealing anything and directly stated his guess.

It seemed as if she wasn't worried at all that Zhengdao would use this against her.

"The Eastern Patriarch is quick to speak. But what does this have to do with us? We are more than happy to see Ren Woxing seek revenge on you!"

Taoist Songwen suddenly said with a smile.

After all, Ren Woxing was imprisoned on the orders of Dongfang Bubai. The fight between Ren Woxing and Dongfang Bubai was a dog-eat-dog fight. For them, it was a good thing in pairs.

If both of them died together, it would be a cause for celebration for the whole world.

"Hahaha……"

Hearing this, Dongfang Bubai laughed loudly, "What a fool! Such a fool can stand here. It seems that you righteous people really have no one to show off."

Dongfang Bubai made a sarcastic remark.

Taoist Songwen's face turned red and he wanted to be angry, but as soon as he met Dongfang Bubai's cold gaze, the flames of anger were immediately extinguished.

Dongfang Bubai was blocked by Lin Ping'an, but not by him. If he really provoked the other party, wouldn't it be easy for him to kill himself?

After all, Lin Ping'an can't always protect himself.

"Dongfang Bubai, what do you mean?"

At this time Fang Zheng stood up again, "You want to arrest Ren Woxing, we naturally have no objection, but it is absolutely impossible for the Sun Moon Divine Sect to send so many masters to enter the Central Plains openly."

Fang Zheng looked determined.

This is a matter of reputation.

If the members of the Demon Cult were allowed to search for people openly and unscrupulously, people would think that they, the righteous people, had succumbed to the tyranny of the Demon Cult and would allow them to come and go as they pleased.

"Master Fang Zheng is right."

Lin Pingan also nodded and said, "It's none of our business if Dongfang Cult Master wants to find someone, but if the people from the Demon Cult do anything out of line, we will definitely not show mercy."

"Humph, it's just Ren Woxing. I might have been a little afraid of him a dozen years ago, but now, even if he shows up in front of me, the one I should be afraid of is him, not me. I came here today just to see the quality of the leader of the martial arts world. Ren Woxing's affairs are just a side issue."

Dongfang Bubai smiled slightly, looking calm and composed.

"Then does our leader satisfy the Eastern Patriarch?"

Taoist Chongxu chuckled at this time and asked loudly.

"Hahaha, you old bastard, you and Fang Zheng really should step down and let others take over."

Dongfang Bubai said mercilessly.

The corner of Chongxu's mouth twitched slightly. Dongfang Bubai's words were too direct and too hurtful.

Although this is true.

"Dongfang Bubai, now that you have met him, it is time to leave. Unless you want to start a war with us now, I, Lin Ping'an, will accompany you to the end."

Lin Pingan said calmly.

"If you want to fight, there are plenty of opportunities. When I catch Ren Woxing, I will fight you and test your true strength."

Dongfang Bubai's eyes flashed and he said with a sneer.

Although she was absolutely confident, Lin Ping'an's strength really required her to give it her all.

But if she got injured or damaged here, it would give Ren Woxing an opportunity.

Therefore, even if a fight is necessary, unstable factors like Ren Woxing must be eliminated first.

Only in this way can she feel completely at ease.

"Then don't give it away!"

Lin Pingan stretched out his hand and said.

Dongfang Bubai looked at Lin Ping'an deeply, then chuckled and landed on the throne in an instant. The people from the Sun and Moon Sect immediately picked up the dumplings and disappeared in Shaolin.

Not until Dongfang Bubai's figure disappeared did the masters of various factions in the Shaolin Temple secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Then someone suddenly turned to look at Lin Ping'an, "Leader, since you are the leader of the martial arts world now, why don't you keep Dongfang Bubai?"

Someone suddenly asked.
