Chapter 166: Senior Brother is the Solid Backing of Junior Brother
A black afterimage passed by Udon Mountain, which was Li Mengzhou who was rushing to find a breath.
Li Mengzhou felt the tremor of the earth and the scene of two swords colliding at a slightly closer distance, and Li Mengzhou also felt frightened.
The degree of damage in the combat range is very exaggerated. It can be imagined that if they cut such a sword directly in Chaosi Lane, the entire outer city would be in trouble and countless casualties.
They all tried their best to cut out their strongest sword, which was because they had no worries. Although there was an Udon village at the foot of Udon Mountain, it was far away from this place. As early as when they showed their powerful aura, the nearby beasts scattered and fled, and there were no living creatures in a radius of dozens of miles.
As a result, they also put in enough strength to continuously enhance the destructive power of their own swords.
The huge ravines slashed out by the sword spread endlessly, and the collapsed ground also gave people a sense of doomsday. In some aspects, the tragic level of this battle was even far better than the battle between Nancheng Gate and Zhuge Dan.
But this is also a normal thing.
Both Ning Haoran and Xie Chunfeng were too far from Zhuge Dan's strength, and the battle ended very quickly. It was obvious that they had no chance to cause any major damage. Only this even-match battle was the most refreshing, and the repeated impacts were destroying all the scenery around them.
Xie Chunfeng's face was very serious. The "Spring Breeze Sword" itself consumed the Qi Hai Lingyuan. It would be very unfavorable for him to continue like this. If this sword cannot solve the opponent immediately, then he will almost face failure.
But even so, Xie Chunfeng is still exporting Qihai Lingyuan with all his strength and carrying a large amount of spiritual energy from heaven and earth. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth is endless. As long as the Qihai Lingyuan is exhausted, this sword can be kept in its strongest posture without interruption.
However, after all, Ning Haoran's sword with a trace of true intention of the Sword Immortal vaguely gained the upper hand. Any practitioner who uses the sword will be suppressed by the sword intent when the realm is not very different. The artistic conception of the Sword Immortal made Ning Haoran's suppression of Xie Chunfeng stronger.
Ning Haoran raised his foot slightly, stepped over the gully, and began to approach Xie Chunfeng on the stable ground.
His steps were heavy and it took him a few breaths to take a step, but he was approaching Xie Chunfeng in a very short time.
The originally detailed sword net has been broken in many collisions. They are currently fighting for each other, whose sword energy is stronger. The sword intention and the sword energy are two completely different forms. One is an attack method that is released, which is not exclusive to the sword cultivator. The sword intent is a higher level of understanding, which is the artistic conception perceived in the sword path. If it is not a sword cultivator, it cannot be understood.
Even if a practitioner has realized the realm of sword intent, it is completely different from the same path as the sword gate.
As Xie Chunfeng's Qi Hai Lingyuan gradually exhausted, Ning Haoran's approaching speed became faster and faster. The vast sword intent kept bombarding the sword energy belonging to Xie Chunfeng, causing it to collapse inch by inch and become shorter and shorter.
At a distance of three feet, Ning Haoran stood firmly and controlled his natal flying sword, instantly shattering Xie Chunfeng's sword energy. The tip of the sword hit Xie Chunfeng's forehead, cutting off a strand of hair. The vast sword intent dissipated in an instant, and the light rain in the night sky fell again in this world, causing the two people's evaporated clothes to be wet again.
Xie Chunfeng was panting heavily. The Ququan sword that was dotted on his forehead slightly pierced a little of his skin. A drop of raindrops fell, but it was quickly washed away by the rain, and only a little blood foam was stained on his clothes.
Ning Haoran was also gasping for breath, but he was not as difficult as Xie Chunfeng. Even a smile gradually appeared on the corner of his mouth and said, "This time, I won again."
Xie Chunfeng didn't say anything, but looked at Ning Haoran. His breath was a little unsmooth and was not suitable for speaking at this moment.
Ning Haoran then said, "But I have to admit that if I had not got that opportunity in the Western Jin Dynasty, with the power of the sword you practiced specifically, I would probably not be able to withstand it, so in a strict sense, I did not win."
Of course, there is also an idea to give Xie Chunfeng face.
That trace of true meaning of the sword immortal does not really belong to him. On this level, there are indeed some problems in Ning Haoran's winning, but after he understood that the true meaning of the sword immortal, it also belongs to him, and there is no problem.
But to convince Xie Chunfeng, and even if his mood will not be cracked, Ning Haoran also needs to explain appropriately. Although he is very annoyed that Xie Chunfeng wants to fight him every time, he does not want Xie Chunfeng to be defeated again and again, thus losing confidence.
If he wanted to lose to Xie Chunfeng, Ning Haoran would definitely not want to. All he could do was just defend himself afterwards, which would mean that he would not be easy to win, and he was even suspected of taking shortcuts.
But these words were obviously a lot for Xie Chunfeng.
He wanted to defeat Ning Haoran, but he would not be able to collapse after he was defeated and worried about gains and losses. That would only make his heart stronger.
Xie Chunfeng, who gradually recovered from his senses, raised his sword and shook the Ququan sword on his forehead. A very clear small red dot appeared on his forehead, which was quite beautiful.
He looked at Ning Haoran and said coldly: "If you lose, you will lose. You don't need to make any excuses for me, because it sounds more like your humiliation to me. This sword called "Chunfeng" still has room for further enhancement. When I perfectly master this sword skill, I will ask Mr. Fourth again."
Ning Haoran said with some depression: "If you say this, it seems that I have to practice well. Otherwise, I will be embarrassed if you accidentally surpass it. Although it is not good to say this, I hope that I will win every time."
Since Xie Chunfeng didn't care about his defeat at all, Ning Haoran had nothing to say, and of course his pride did not allow him to lose to Xie Chunfeng.
"It's indeed a wonderful hope, but unfortunately, your hope will be shattered next time."
Xie Chunfeng couldn't refute Ning Haoran because he had lost to Ning Haoran twice, but he also firmly believed that he would never lose the third time.
Ning Haoran didn't care whether the hope would be shattered. In his opinion, it was unlikely. What he cared more about was his junior brother's affairs. He looked at Li Mengzhou who was watching the game next to him. He said seriously to Xie Chunfeng: "Now you have lost to me, so there is no reason to trouble my junior brother again."
Xie Chunfeng sneered: "That's just your own opinion. I have never said that I would cause trouble for Li Mengzhou. If Lu Changge really killed Mr. Zhu, then I would not be indiscriminate if I didn't fall into the mountains. I just rescued him blindly. The emperor still committed the same crime as the common people, let alone Lu Changge? But on the contrary, if Lu Changge did not do those things, I would be his strongest backing if I didn't fall into the mountains."
He was just seeking truth from facts. Although he did not come to cause trouble for Li Mengzhou, he still felt a little suspicious. But he also knew Ning Haoran's character. As long as Ning Haoran believed in Li Mengzhou, he could not do anything.
Ning Haoran said calmly: "You and me have no meaning. You just need to remember one thing, just don't cause trouble for my junior brother."
Xie Chunfeng looked at Li Mengzhou with a silent expression.
Li Mengzhou felt a little embarrassed.
It is more guilty of the fourth senior brother trusting him. He is really not as well-behaved as the fourth senior brother.
Ning Haoran really wanted to solve this problem, so he looked at Li Mengzhou and said seriously: "Junior brother, since Chief Xie still has some doubts about you, then you sincerely tell him that Senior brother believes in every word you say, and I believe Chief Xie will not be entangled with it."
Xie Chunfeng did not say anything, which was considered to be acknowledging Ning Haoran's words. Although Li Mengzhou had refuted it once, he still needed to confirm it again. Even if he didn't believe Li Mengzhou, he would believe Ning Haoran.
Even in his heart, Ning Haoran is not a good thing, but Ning Haoran will not lie in such matters. I believe that Li Mengzhou, as his junior brother, should not lie in peace in front of Ning Haoran.
Of course, this itself has no logic, but what Xie Chunfeng needs is only an answer. Regardless of whether there is another answer hidden in the dark side of this answer, as long as Ning Haoran is still standing here, Xie Chunfeng can only believe every word Li Mengzhou said.
Li Mengzhou looked as usual, and looked at Xie Chunfeng with a sincere look, saying, "It is true that I saw Lu Changge appearing in Baihu Lane, but I did not witness the moment when he actually killed Mr. Zhu, but the bloody smell could not deceive anyone, and Mr. Zhu was indeed dead."
His answer was still a bit clever. Lu Changge did appear in Baihu Lane. Even though Lu Changge's purpose was to peek at Li Mengzhou's every move and accidentally bumped into Baihu Lane, it was an indisputable fact that he had appeared there.
Even in front of Xu Hexian, Li Mengzhou did not insist that Lu Changge killed Zhu Zaitian, but only provided him with evidence. Whatever Xu Hexian did or suspected next was nothing to do with Li Mengzhou.
What he said to Xie Chunfeng is not considered a lie, and he has been a killer in Shuning Town for a long time. Some tasks are simple and straightforward, and some require some disguise. When he implies in his heart that he has not lie, his expression and tone are all invisible.
Ning Haoran immediately smiled at Xie Chunfeng and said, "My junior brother has given the answer. Now Brother Xie should think more about how to save your junior brother. We will not be with you. When you practice that sword skill perfectly, I will be with you to the end."
Xie Chunfeng said calmly: "I don't know how true or false these words are, but I believe that the disciples of Ligong Sword Academy are all fearless and proud."
He looked at Ning Haoran and said in a narrow voice: "I believe the next duel between us will come soon."
They did not return to the capital together, so Xie Chunfeng took the lead.
Ning Haoran and Li Mengzhou walked slowly on the mountain road of Udon Mountain. The drizzle was cool, and the raindrops slapped against the green leaves, and they played a wonderful song in the middle of the night.
Li Mengzhou looked at the heroic city with lights flashing in the distance, stood still, turned around and looked at Senior Brother Four, and said a little hesitantly: "Senior Brother Four, actually, I want to say sorry to you."
Ning Haoran smiled and said, "Why do you want to say sorry?"
Li Mengzhou was still a little uneasy because the fourth senior brother really believed in him. Anyone who deceived and believed in him like this would not be without feelings in his heart.
He felt that he should trust the fourth senior brother.
Looking at Ning Haoran's smile, he said seriously: "Lu Changge did not kill Zhu Zaitian. I appeared in Baihu Lane and killed him. But this incident was caught by Lu Changge."
Ning Haoran's expression did not change much.
Li Mengzhou found it very strange, but he immediately said in surprise: "Senior Brother Fourth has known it a long time ago?"
