Travel through the heavens

After Zhao Xinchuan left, Fang Muye clasped his fists towards Zhou Xiyu and said, "Thank you, Brother Dao."

He was thankful for Zhou Xiyu's help in acquiring the "Nine Dragons" skill.

Zhou Xiyu smiled slightly and said, "There's no need to be polite between you and me."

Suddenly, his eyes became deep and he looked towards the horizon. After a long while, he sighed and said in a deep voice, "I have a feeling that my senior brother is about to come."

Fang Muye thought, your feeling is very accurate, he is indeed coming soon, but he asked: "If Peng Qianwu comes, what will you do with him, brother?"

Zhou Xiyu said slowly: "I have always had a wish, which is to return the Ape Fighting Technique to my senior brother. Back then, I thought I was very talented, and my master passed the Ape Fighting Technique to me out of selflessness and as it should be. But after so many years, I finally understand the unhappiness in my senior brother's heart."

"He is Master's only son. Master did not pass on the art to him, but to me, a person of a different family. It is understandable that he finds it hard to accept and feels resentful. But the Ape Fighting Technique is, after all, something of the Peng family. Now is the time to return it."

Fang Muye reminded: "Given Peng Qianwu's character, I'm afraid he won't give up easily. Brother Dao will definitely be in trouble."

Zhou Xiyu asked: "Then according to your opinion, what should we do?"

From what I see, it would be easier to kill him, but you will definitely not agree to it. Fang Muye said solemnly, "If he refuses to give up, then we can only convince him with virtue!"

Zhou Xiyu cast a puzzled look: "Oh? How to win people over with virtue?"

Fang Muye said solemnly, "Beat him!"

One day, after breakfast, Fang Muye came to the front store clinic and took the newspaper from the counter to read. Over the past year, he has developed a habit of reading newspapers, and the newspaper boy would deliver newspapers to him every morning.

One of the articles caught Fang Muye's attention. It was about Tai Chi master Peng Qianwu who opened a boxing gym in Shanghai. On the opening day, he enrolled nearly a hundred students, including many prominent people.

Fang Muye suddenly realized that Peng Qianwu's influence had spread to Hangzhou when he came to Shanghai to teach boxing. He would probably come over when he had time.

Sure enough, a few days later, Zhao Xinchuan came to the clinic. When he saw Fang Muye, he said, "Mr. Cui, it's just as you expected. My master has come to Hangzhou and asked me to meet him tonight."

Fang Muye nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll proceed according to the plan."

The three of them had already agreed that if Peng Qianwu came, Zhao Xinchuan would set the meeting place in Changming Temple and would also inform Fang Muye and Zhou Xiyu in time.

That night, the weather suddenly turned gloomy. Dark clouds covered the moon, making the weather seem very depressing.

Peng Qianwu, wearing a felt hat and holding a long black umbrella, pushed open the gate of Changming Temple and walked into the courtyard.

Peng Qianwu looked at Zhao Xinchuan standing in the courtyard, waiting with a smile on his face, propped his umbrella on the ground, and laughed, "Good disciple, the master is here. You asked the master to be here. Are you afraid that people in your school will see us?"

Zhao Xinchuan did not answer, but a voice came from the house behind him: "I asked Xinchuan to invite Brother here."

Peng Qianwu was startled, and with his eyes slightly narrowed and a cold look in his eyes, he looked behind Zhao Xinchuan.

Two people walked out of the house. Peng Qianwu only glanced at Fang Muye, then fixed his eyes on Zhou Xiyu. He was furious and ruthless in his heart, but he smiled meaningfully and said with emotion: "It's been many years. I thought I would never see you again, Junior Brother!"

Zhou Xiyu smiled faintly: "Senior Brother, long time no see."

Peng Qianwu said: "Have you been hiding in this broken Taoist temple all these years? You have ended up like this, you really let down the skills my father taught you." After saying this, he let out a laugh that was not sure whether it was mockery or pity.

Zhou Xiyu said calmly: "I am a useless person."

Peng Qianwu laughed coldly and said, "Junior brother, it's time to return the secret book to me."

Zhou Xiyu said calmly, "Brother, I've told you long ago that there is no secret manual for the Ape Fighting Technique. What my master taught me is all in my head. But I have a notebook here that contains my experience and practice methods for this extraordinary skill. I'd like to give it to you, but there's one more thing I want you to agree to."

What he taught Peng Qianwu was the latest training method of Ape Fighting. He also did not tell him the training method that Peng Xiaowen had passed on to him, which was actually incorrect, so as not to tarnish his master's reputation and arouse Peng Qianwu's anger.

Peng Qianwu laughed and said, "What's the matter? Junior brother, please tell me first."

Zhou Xiyu said, "I have been a Taoist for many years. Now, from now on, I just want to sweep the floor quietly and don't want to deal with worldly affairs. Xinchuan has also left Taiji Sect and will no longer think about him. Taiji Sect will only belong to the Peng family, no matter in the past or in the future. I hope that Brother can allow us to have some peace and quiet."

Peng Qianwu looked grim, and was silent for a moment, then suddenly laughed out loud, "Okay, but we haven't seen each other for so many years, I wonder if you'd like to move around and have a fight with me."

Zhou Xiyu sighed in his heart. Just as Daoist Cui had expected, his senior brother would not give up easily and would eventually fight him. He said, "If you wish, I will obey you. But I left in a hurry that year. Please let me perform the ceremony of a disciple to thank you for your years of teaching and raising me."

After saying that, he walked up to Peng Qianwu and looked at him quietly. In his dim light, he seemed to see the appearance of his mentor Peng Xiaowen. His eyes instantly became moist, and sadness welled up in his heart. He bowed respectfully and saluted.

Peng Qianwu actually obediently accepted Zhou Xiyu's salute and did not take the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. Instead, he flew over and kicked him just after Zhou Xiyu stood up.

Zhou Xiyu used the Tai Chi "entanglement" force, wrapped his arms around Peng Qianwu's kicking right leg, pulled it to the side, and at the same time twisted his waist to dissolve Peng Qianwu's attack.

As soon as Peng Qianwu landed on the ground, he stepped on the ground, turned his body, and rushed towards Zhou Xiyu silently like a phantom cloud. At the same time, he turned his wrist and struck Zhou Xiyu in the face with a palm.

This palm strike seemed to make no sound, but it contained internal energy. If Zhou Xiyu was hit in the face, the burst of internal energy would surely hit him hard and make his face burst into pieces.

Zhou Xiyu was not in a hurry. He mobilized the internal energy of his whole body, swung his body, and used the soft but strong power of Tai Chi. After his right palm moved quickly from his right ear in a "front and back" trajectory, he fiercely met the palm that Peng Qianwu was attacking.

Just listen to a loud "bang" sound.

The two men's palms collided and their internal energies collided. Peng Qianwu was immediately shocked and flew backwards, hitting the wall, but Zhou Xiyu only took two steps back.

In this palm-to-palm confrontation, it was clear that Peng Qianwu was at a disadvantage, losing due to his inferior internal energy.

Although Zhou Xiyu and Peng Qianwu had just fought, Fang Muye had already determined that Peng Qianwu would be the loser. Peng Qianwu was only in the initial stage of the Great Circulation, but Zhou Xiyu had entered the middle stage of the Great Circulation a year and a half ago, and his internal energy was much stronger than Peng Qianwu's.

The two men are from the same school and have the same kung fu. Although Peng Qianwu has not yet used the "Nine Dragons Combined Technique", Zhou Xiyu also has the "Ape Striking Technique".

The outcome is no longer in doubt, it’s just a matter of time.
