I've been with Sister Yuyan the whole time, so why can she see so many things?
"Sister Yuyan, you are so smart. I think you are just as smart as Sister Huang Rong."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuyan smiled and shook her head.
"No, I'm not like her."
As Sun Tzu's Art of War states, "The best strategy is to attack the enemy's plans; the next best is to attack their army; and the worst is to besiege their cities."
"Although this is a military strategy for marching and fighting, it is equally applicable to the calculations between people."
"Huang Rong is clever and quick-witted. Whenever she is in a predicament, she can always come up with a way to break the deadlock."
"When faced with a problem, most people can only come up with two or three solutions, but she can come up with five or six."
"Her style of doing things conforms to the latter two of the military strategies I just mentioned."
"If I were to have a life-or-death duel with Huang Rong within the time limit of one incense stick's time, and I were not allowed to use any martial arts, then I would definitely be the one to die."
"Conversely, if the time limit were extended to half a month or a month, then she would definitely be the one to die."
"Because I'm good at winning people's hearts."
Hearing Jiang Yuyan's words, Wang Yuyan was completely dumbfounded.
They were fine just now, how come they're facing each other to the death now? And Sister Yuyan's tone doesn't sound like she's joking!
"So what am I good at?"
Seeing Wang Yuyan's adorable blank expression, Jiang Yuyan laughed and said, "You're good at reciting!"
"In the entire bamboo grove courtyard, only you have the ability to remember everything you see."
"Otherwise, why would Mr. Li always ask you to read to him? Because none of us read as well as you."
"Also, Mr. Li wouldn't be able to bring a whole bunch of books with him when he goes out, would he?"
"With you, Mr. Li can save himself a lot of trouble."
Wang Yuyan: Surprise!
really?
Then I will definitely study hard.
It happened while Wang Yuyan and Jiang Yuyan were talking.
The battle outside the inn was nearing its end; Ren Qianxing's martial arts skills were slightly weaker than Sima Changfeng's.
If they were to face off normally, the outcome would be uncertain.
But what Sima Changfeng held was the divine weapon, the Dragon Soul Blade.
It was also because of the existence of the Dragon Soul Blade that Ren Qianxing and Sima Changfeng's fight was restricted in many ways.
Even during the previous exchange, Sima Changfeng severed his weapon.
boom!
Ren Qianxing was knocked to the ground with a palm strike, and just as Sima Changfeng was about to put his knife to Ren Qianxing's neck.
Suddenly a strong gust of wind came from behind, and Sima Changfeng was shocked to sense the movement behind him.
He never expected that someone would launch a sneak attack in this situation.
Sima Changfeng immediately raised his sword to block, but the expected attack did not come.
By the time Sima Changfeng came to his senses, there was already someone standing in front of Ren Qianxing.
This person was dressed plainly and had an extremely ordinary appearance, but the aura he exuded was extraordinary.
"Make your move."
"You're not leaving today unless you make a move."
The mysterious man said something inexplicable, and then locked his killing intent onto Sima Changfeng.
"You have three breaths. If you don't make your move now, you won't have another chance."
With the threat of death drawing ever closer, Sima Changfeng could no longer afford to worry about anything else.
They immediately decided to weather the immediate crisis first before worrying about the warehouse.
Thinking of this, Sima Changfeng had already slashed out with the Dragon Soul Blade in his hand.
Faced with the sharp blade, the mysterious man did not dodge, but instead struck a strange pose.
"Innate Qi!"
Sima Changfeng felt that the originally incomparably sharp Dragon Soul Blade encountered strong resistance, and then all the true energy on the blade rebounded back.
At the same time, rooms numbered one, two, four, five, and six were opened simultaneously.
Six figures attacked the mysterious man simultaneously.
Chapter 355 Only the Martial King Can Break This Barrier, the Arrogant Mr. Li
"boom!"
A huge wave of air blew towards the inn, but Li Chengqian waved his right hand and the huge wave of air dissipated instantly.
Once the commotion subsided, everyone got a clearer picture of the situation outside the inn.
The mysterious man from before was still standing unharmed outside the inn.
Six experts stood at the entrance of the inn. Sima Changfeng coughed up blood and collapsed to the ground, his Dragon Soul Blade falling to the ground as well.
However, the general public recognized four of these six experts.
The four are Dongfang Bubai, Lianxing, Yaoyue, and Huang Yaoshi.
As for the remaining two people, no one knew for sure.
"Humph!"
Yaoyue snorted coldly, then led Lianxing back to the room.
Dongfang Bubai gave a wry smile and then returned to his room.
"Just as Mr. Li said, I have learned a lot today. I admire you!"
Huang Yaoshi casually cupped his hands in greeting to Li Chengqian, and then returned to his room as well.
Faced with the four people's "rudeness," Li Chengqian pretended not to see anything, and the people in the inn also had an expression of taking it for granted.
The first three female demons need no introduction; they've practically taken root in the bamboo grove courtyard.
Between an elderly couple, excessive formality can feel a bit distant.
Aside from these three, Huang Yaoshi's identity is also somewhat special.
Everyone in the martial arts world knows that Mr. Li's bamboo grove courtyard has a little cook named Huang Rong. As for their specific relationship...
Just keep it to yourself. 157
While everyone was still speculating about the identities of the other two people, the two men bowed deeply to Li Chengqian and said...
"Junior Li Qiushui and Wu Xingyun pay their respects to Mr. Li!"
Upon hearing these two names, everyone's mouths dropped open.
Even the usually composed Young Master Huang raised an eyebrow.
Although Mr. Li has always claimed that there are cultivators in this martial arts world, no one has ever seen one.
The only cultivator known to be in this world is Xiaoyaozi.
Now that two of Xiaoyaozi's disciples have arrived, how could everyone not be shocked?
It should be noted that the Northern Darkness Divine Skill is in Mr. Li's possession, and now the other two disciples of the Free and Unfettered Sect have also arrived.
Does that mean that cultivation techniques for immortality are about to appear in the world?
"Hehehe!"
"No need for such formalities, I'm just an ordinary storyteller."
"Now that you have experienced the power of this innate qi, you believe that it cannot be broken by anyone less than a Martial King."
Upon hearing this, Li Qiushui and Wu Xingyun said again, "We dare not question Mr. Li."
"I was merely tempted by this unparalleled skill, please forgive me, Mr. Li."
Upon hearing this, Li Chengqian smiled and waved his hand.
"Don't be silly. As long as they are guests of Ping An Inn, I treat them all the same. There's no question of forgiving them."
"You two should go back first; there are still some minor matters to take care of here."
"Yes!"
After agreeing, the two glared at each other and then went back to their room.
""
Just as Mr. Li said, these two will probably fight to the death.
After all the top-tier experts returned to their rooms, Li Chengqian finally put down his teacup.
He smiled as he looked at the mysterious man outside the inn.
“When Zhuge Zhengwo came last time, I mentioned some suspicious people.”
“Li would treat him as a bad guy, and when facing a bad guy, Li would usually slash him with his sword.”
"If it weren't for the fact that you haven't yet reached the Martial King realm, you would have insisted on taking my sword strike today."
"Even with the combined efforts of six Grandmasters at their peak, it can barely be considered that I, Li, have made a single sword strike. I will let you go this time, but there will be no next time."
Upon hearing this, the mysterious man at the door wiped his face, revealing another heroic expression.
Then he bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Li."
"I am willing to atone with the Dragon Soul Blade."
Upon seeing this face, Ren Qianxing was shocked and instinctively cried out.
"master!"
