Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

After spending two full months at Lingjiu Palace, Yang Ke finally left, completely satisfied.

During these two months, he naturally caused quite a bit of trouble at Lingjiu Palace, but neither Wu Xingyun nor Li Qiushui had any objections.

After all, overeating at every meal is not a good thing, and both of them have experienced a lot, so they naturally wouldn't care about such a small matter. They just wouldn't team up with the people from Lingjiu Palace.

In those two months, Yang Ke didn't do nothing; in fact, he did a lot.

First, he used a special medicine to remove the scars on Li Qiushui's face, leaving no trace.

For this reason, Li Qiushui thanked Yang Ke several times before she could finish expressing her gratitude.

Wu Xingyun was naturally very indignant to see Li Qiushui transformed into the great beauty she once was, but fortunately Yang Ke noticed it.

Although the little girl is very cute, Wu Xingyun has a good foundation. If she can grow up, she will definitely be outstanding. We should trust the Xiaoyao Sect's judgment in choosing disciples.

Wu Xingyun's problem stemmed from a mistake he made while practicing martial arts at a young age, while Yang Ke possessed a mystical level of martial arts talent, so he could naturally resolve the issue caused by mere martial arts training.

After Wu Xingyun's old illness was cured, she grew to 1.6 meters tall in just over ten days, no longer looking like a little girl who was less than 1.4 meters tall before, but it is estimated that this is the upper limit.

Next, the life-and-death talismans of the people in the thirty-six caves and seventy-two islands were removed to prevent them from becoming desperate and attacking Lingjiu Palace while Yang Ke and the others were away.

Yang Ke didn't really care whether these people died or not, but the important thing was to make sure that the people of Lingjiu Palace didn't die.

Even a rabbit will bite when cornered, let alone this group of martial arts masters.

So Yang Ke removed the life-and-death talismans from these people, but this action made Boss Wu and the others extremely grateful, and they were willing to continue to follow the orders of Lingjiu Palace.

As for the extent to which it will go, it actually depends on the deterrent power of Lingjiu Palace.

After dealing with these matters, Yang Ke went to the Central Plains Beggars' Sect to see how Quan Guanqing's preparations were going.

As for Kumārajīva, Yang Ke also sent him a message this month, asking him to challenge Shaolin Temple as well.

After what had happened, Kumārajīva was quite satisfied with the Free and Unfettered Sect as his powerful backer.

Upon learning that Yang Ke had become the leader of the Xiaoyao Sect, and that the previous generation's Tianshan Tonglao and Li Qiushui had returned, Kumārajīva displayed loyalty at the level of a direct disciple.

There's no way around it, the powerful figures are too strong. The Free and Unfettered Sect is currently short-handed, so I definitely have to work hard to seize the opportunity to break through to the Grandmaster level.

"Owner!"

Quan Guanqing bowed respectfully upon seeing Yang Ke.

"How are the preparations going?"

Yang Ke waved his hand and asked about Quan Guanqing.

"Reporting to Master, recently..."

Quan Guanqing reported on his recent progress.

At that time, there weren't many true masters in the martial arts world.

With the addition of several young masters to their ranks, the Beggars' Sect has naturally become more aggressive recently.

However, the other sects were basically no match for the other three, and some of the stronger veteran masters were no match for You Tanzhi, who had reached the Grandmaster level and possessed the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms.

This means that if the Beggars' Sect wanted to challenge Shaolin, it could really cause a sensation.

After all, if you're not strong enough, even if you say you're challenging Shaolin, nobody will bother to join in the fun.

But if you really have a chance to win, then people in the martial arts world will naturally not miss such a grand event.

This is exactly what Yang Ke wanted. Otherwise, how could he get Qiao Feng to return to the Central Plains from the Liao Dynasty?

Of course, Xiao Yuanshan would also take this opportunity to bring Qiao Feng to Shaolin Temple, because he had long wanted to seek revenge on Xuanci.

"Post on the Wulin forum."

Yang Ke was quite confident in Quan Guanqing's abilities and waved his hand, telling him to prepare for the challenge against Shaolin.

a few days later.

Upon hearing that the Beggars' Sect was challenging Shaolin Temple, Murong Fu, wanting to make friends with heroes from all over the world, went to Shaolin Temple.

Meanwhile, Abbot Xuanci summoned all the monks and experts of the temple to deal with the arrival of Kumārajīva.

Kumārajīva came to Shaolin Temple to challenge the Seventy-Two Arts of Shaolin. Abbot Xuanci knew Kumārajīva's prowess well and naturally dared not be negligent.

It's a pity that even if we disregard the fact that the abbot of Shaolin Temple couldn't easily take action, Xuanci, the most powerful monk in Shaolin Temple, was no match for Kumārajīva in terms of his own strength.

It would be too embarrassing if the Shaolin abbot lost the match.

"Abbot, a lot of martial arts figures have arrived outside, led by members of the Beggars' Clan, who say they want to challenge our Shaolin Temple."

Several young monks hurriedly came over to report the situation.

"Shaolin truly lives up to its reputation as a sacred place of martial arts. I never expected that the Beggars' Sect would also want to challenge us today."

Kumārajīva had already communicated with Quan Guanqing.

He should first defeat the head monks of the Shaolin Disciplinary Hall. Once they are defeated, Xuan Ci will have no choice but to take action. At that time, Xiao Yuanshan will miss the opportunity to expose what happened back then.

"Abbot, I'll go out and check the situation first."

Knowing that Kumārajīva was not easy to deal with, the head monks of Bodhi Academy and Dharma Academy, Xuan Nan, naturally had to deal with the Beggars' Sect matters themselves first, while letting the head monk of the Discipline Academy, Xuan Ji, compete with Kumārajīva.

"Okay, go and see what's going on."

Abbot Xuanci couldn't go over there, mainly because Kumārajīva's visit was ill-intentioned. If he wasn't there to keep an eye on things, there was a risk of major trouble.

After the abbots of Bodhi and Dharma schools, Xuan Nan, left, Kumārajīva began a contest with the abbot of the Vinaya school, Xuan Ji.

Xuanji possessed profound internal strength. He had diligently practiced the One-Strike Two-Scatter Palm and the Indian Buddha Finger, both of which were among the 72 Shaolin Arts. He once joined forces with Xuanci and Xuannan in the temple to fight against Qiao Feng, and used this palm to make Qiao Feng weak all over.

This palm strike possesses immense internal power; in battle, there's no need to use a second move before the enemy is already dead.

The term "two scatterings" refers to the fact that when the palm strikes a stone, stone chips scatter in all directions; when it strikes a person, the soul and spirit are scattered. This palm technique consists of only one move, and this single palm strike is based on such overwhelming internal force that changing its form is beyond human capability.

Unfortunately, Kumārajīva was already familiar with Shaolin's unique skills and had the added advantage of the Lesser Formless Skill, so he defeated Xuanji with the same moves.

The eight eminent monks were Xuancheng, Xuanci, Xuanji, Xuanbei, Xuannan, Xuanku, Xuandu, and Xuantong. Among them, Xuanji ranked third, only after the genius Xuancheng and Abbot Xuanci.

When the head of the Disciplinary Hall, Xuanji, lost, the Shaolin monks were in an uproar.

Just then, Xuan Nan, the head of the Bodhi Academy and the Dharma Academy, came in and reported to Master Xuan Ci on the situation of the Beggars' Clan, indicating that the Beggars' Clan's visit this time was not friendly.

Normally, duels involve sending invitations in advance, but Quan Guanqing sent invitations to many fellow martial artists, except for Shaolin. Instead, he suddenly brought the Beggars' Sect and other martial artists to Shaolin to challenge them.

At the same time, Ding Chunqiu and Qiao Feng also received the news.

Ding Chunqiu wanted to enter the Central Plains and promote the Xingxiu School, so naturally he had to join in the fun.

Qiao Feng received news that Shaolin Temple was connected to the leader of the gang, so he rushed over immediately.

"Now that Qiao Feng and Ding Chunqiu are here, let's begin."

After Yang Ke saw that Qiao Feng and Ding Chunqiu had arrived, he naturally allowed Quan Guanqing to challenge Shaolin.

Just as Yang Ke was about to deal with Ding Chunqiu, he sensed an aura and immediately left Quan Guanqing's side, heading towards the location of the aura.
