Chapter 22 The Third Mountain Gate

The green-clothed disciple pointed his knife at Qu Xuanyue. Qu Xuanyue smiled, pinched a jade bead between two fingers of his sleeve, and instantly pressed the jade between three fingers. The jade shot out and hit the green-clothed disciple on the left shoulder.

The green-clothed disciple tilted his left shoulder slightly, and the knife in his right hand also shifted to the left. Qu Xuanyue saw the right moment, raised his right hand, and his slender jade fingers slashed across the cold back of the knife. In an instant, Qu Xuanyue had come in front of the green-clothed disciple, "Thank you for letting me!"

After saying that, Qu Xuanyue clamped the green-clothed disciple's hand holding the knife with his right hand like an eagle's claw and pressed down hard on the wrist. The green-clothed disciple felt pain in his hand and loosened his grip. The knife fell to the ground with a clang, and the entire mountain gate suddenly became quiet.

"What happened? She was disarmed with just one move?" "Where did this girl come from? We've been fighting for three days and three nights and there's still no winner, and she just did it with one move?"

The green-clothed disciple picked up the knife on the ground and said, "Young lady, please!" After that, he made way and Xuanyue took Zi Ling'er to the second mountain gate.

On the way up the mountain, although He Yanqiu's muscles were as strong as iron and stone, her posture was as agile as a dragon, and the six thousand stone steps were no problem for her.

Seeing He Yanqiu running away, the little princess stamped her feet anxiously, and the palace maids and guards quickly lifted her up the mountain to chase him. Finally, they stopped outside the Xueji Palace, and the palace maids collapsed to the ground one by one.

Shan Tianxiang and the other three hall masters were already waiting outside. Shan Boyu had already come to report the news. When they saw the little princess arriving, they all saluted with fists. The little princess didn't even look at them and walked in on her own. Everyone had to wait until they entered the Xueji Palace.

As soon as Shan Tianxiang sat down, a palace servant presented him a note. Shan Tianxiang quickly took it with both hands, opened it and looked at Shan Zimo with wide eyes, which made Shan Zimo puzzled.

"Since Princess Jinyu has come to my Xueying Hall, I will serve you wholeheartedly." Shan Tianxiang said, calling the maid, "Come here, invite Princess Jinyu to rest in Qionghua Palace!"

Princess Jinyu walked up to He Yanqiu, looked at her with contempt, and walked away with her head held high.

"Uncle Tianxiang, what should we do with Yanqiu?" The diamond girl put her hands on her hips, her muscles were about to show. "Yanqiu naturally went to Yuehua Palace to find his wife!" The second hall master touched her cute little head. "I know Uncle Tianxiang is the best to me!" After saying that, she jumped and ran to Yuehua Palace.

The three hall masters all looked at Shan Zimo, who quickly waved his hands: "I don't know anything, they insisted on following me!"

"Young Master, you forgot," Shan Boyu said, "there is another one at the mountain gate!"

Looking at Shan Tianxiang's eyes again, it seemed as if there were thousands of sharp blades that were going to skin Shan Zimo alive!

"What's the other purpose of the mountain gate?" asked the Third Hall Master. "Replying to the Third Hall Master, there is another girl who also came back with the young master. She insisted on fighting to prove her martial arts ability."

"This is an interesting girl!" The second and third hall masters nodded. "Where are we now?" "Master, we have passed the first mountain gate and are about to reach the second mountain gate."

"He's actually got past Qing Yi, so he must have some skills. Why don't we go take a look?" The Third Hall Master suggested. "Let's talk about it after we pass the second gate. By the way," the Second Hall Master asked, "who is the fourth gate today?"

It turns out that the fourth mountain gate is guarded by six disciples, one every day, and the one guarding today and tomorrow is the sixth disciple Zijun! "Zijun!" The second hall master was a little regretful, "Your luck is a little bad. But I am looking forward to it!" The third hall master nodded.

When Xuanyue and Ziling'er arrived at the second mountain gate, a Xuanying disciple stepped out and blocked their way. "Please give me your guidance!" The Xuanying disciple saluted with his hands holding the sword.

Zi Ling'er stepped aside, and Qu Xuanyue used the same trick again. The jade shot out between three fingers. Xuanying's disciple raised his knife and chopped sideways. Only two crisp sounds were heard, and the jade was cut into two halves and fell to the ground.

Seeing that this skill was useless, Qu Xuanyue knew that the second mountain gate was not as simple as he thought. Qu Xuanyue gathered his strength in his right hand, and his palm was like a knife, rushing straight to the face of Xuanying disciple, but Xuanying disciple turned the handle of the knife to block it.

Xuanyue turned his wrist, turning the knife into a claw and fiercely grabbed Xuanying disciple's wrist. However, Xuanying disciple used the force to relieve himself and with the force of Xuanyue, he managed to free his hand and was not disarmed.

After several rounds, neither of them had the upper hand. Just as the two were in a stalemate, a group of people came down from the mountain. They were the three hall masters and Shan Zimo.

"It's been a long time since a girl came to the second mountain gate," the second hall master said with a little excitement, and then someone brought chairs, and the three of them sat down and continued to watch the fight.

"Let's end it!" Xuanyue thought to himself, with his hands under his sleeves, eight jade stones between his fingers. Suddenly, he crossed his hands in front of his chest, and as his body turned, the jade stones shot out like a rainstorm, and the Xuanying disciples had to protect themselves with ice barriers.

Just when Xuanying's disciples were overwhelmed, Xuanyue suddenly approached and hit the wrist of the disciple holding the knife with his two fingers. The barrier disappeared, and then he raised his two fingers and pointed them directly at Xuanying's disciple's forehead!

"Good!" Shan Tianxiang shouted. Qu Xuanyue also stopped attacking when his eyebrows were touched, and Xuanying's disciple clasped his hands and admitted defeat.

"So it's a disciple of the Luohui Sect!" Shan Tianxiao said, "But I don't know why the Luohui Sect wants to challenge my Xueying Hall?"

"Master, I have no sect or school." Xuanyue bowed gracefully, looking like a completely different person from the ruthless and murderous person she had just been.

"If I'm not mistaken, the girl's last move just now was the Netherworld Finger of the Luohui Sect?" asked the Second Hall Master.

"I don't know. This is a note left by my mother. I have only learned a little." Shan Tianxiang nodded silently after listening.

As they were talking, the lights were lit and it was already completely dark. "It's dark now, why don't you go up the mountain to rest first and continue to challenge the three mountain gates tomorrow morning." The third hall master suggested. "Then I'll trouble you hall masters." Then the group walked up the mountain.

"I can't tell," Shan Zimo followed beside Xuanyue and whispered, "Your fighting skills are not low!" "Young master, you are too kind. I just want to protect myself!" As she spoke, Zi Ling'er squeezed in between the two of them and pushed Shan Zimo out.

That night, Xueying Hall was so lively that it could really be described as "a scene of chaos and commotion".

The next day, Xuanyue got ready early and put on a light white robe embroidered with delicate plum blossoms. She tied her hair up in a high bun, looking very heroic.

Bringing Zi Ling'er to the third gate, a Hanyu disciple saluted with his sword in both hands. Before the fight started, the spectators also took their seats. There were more people today, including He Yanqiu and Princess Jinyu.

"Please teach me more!" As soon as the words fell, Han Yu's disciple swung his knife towards Qu Xuanyue. Qu Xuanyue dodged easily and did not intend to attack.

Han Yu's disciple continued to attack, and the knife went straight for her neck. Qu Xuanyue raised her hand and hit Han Yu's disciple's shoulder to block it. Her hand turned into a claw, and she slid down from the shoulder to grab Han Yu's arm, tightly grasping Han Yu's disciple's hand holding the knife. However, Han Yu's disciple easily resolved the attack, and the two of them confronted each other.

The disciple of Hanyu rushed forward with a knife in both hands. Qu Xuanyue dodged and half-crouched, raised his foot and swept sideways. The disciple of Hanyu lunged forward and turned around, and the knife passed in front of Qu Xuanyue, frightening Shan Zimo so much that he shuddered.

Fortunately, Qu Xuanyue retreated in time and escaped. "No one will die, right?" Shan Zimo asked Shan Boyu softly. "Young Master, don't worry, I know what to do when the time is right!"

Suddenly, Qu Xuanyue moved quickly at the mountain gate, but her speed was still slightly slower than that of Hanyu's disciples. Fortunately, her body was light and the jade in her hand shot out without prediction, giving Qu Xuanyue a slight advantage.

"Dragon and Snake Coil!" said the Second Hall Master, "It's a pity that his martial arts skills are still weak and he lacks internal strength, otherwise the damage would be doubled." The Third Hall Master nodded in agreement.

"Hey, Third Brother," Shan Tianao suddenly turned the conversation to the Third Hall Master, "Has the leader of the Luohui Sect given up on you?"
