DRAMA NOVEL ONLINE Chapter 117: Chapter 116: Ambush Midway, Huangquan Knife Skill
Translator: 549690339
Ding Yulong, a first-grade martial artist, skillful with the curved blade, his origins were a mystery.
One could say that even among the well-informed Brocade Guards, many people’s understanding of this advanced martial artist was very limited.
For Ding Yulong, he had little relevance with the Brocade Guards. He came to Xuanfu this time at the invitation of Qian Ning, to repay a favor.
Now, since the death of Qian Ning, commander of the Brocade Guards, Ding Yulong himself had been humiliated, but luckily he did not sustain many injuries that day. After these days of rest, he had fully recovered.
After all, Ding Yulong clearly remembered the harsh words Pei Xuanjing had left behind that day, which pricked him like a thorn in the back. Therefore, he was not willing to continue staying in Xuanfu, under everyone’s attention.
By the time the arrest warrant for Pei Xuanjing had been circulated across the world, Ding Yulong had also hidden himself, quietly leaving Xuanfu.
However, Ding Yulong had not expected that shortly after leaving, he would run into someone he did not wish to see at all.
Ding Yulong was sitting on a horse, his gaze flickering as he looked at the man standing in the distance, holding a sword.
“I have waited for you for a long time.”
The cold wind howled, and Pei Xuanjing’s voice echoed through the forest.
He just stood there, his martial arts aura pervading all corners of the area, as if he were one with heaven and earth.
Ding Yulong sighed softly, saying, “Brother Pei, you and I really don’t have much of a grudge.”
To tell the truth, after experiencing the battle of Long Street, where even after joining hands with two first-grade experts, they hadn’t been able to take down Pei, Ding Yulong really did not want to fight him.
“The reason I took action that day was because I owed Qian Ning a favor and couldn’t say no. Now with Qian Ning dead, there’s no reason for us to fight anymore.” Ding Yulong explained.
“Draw your weapon!” Pei Xuanjing remained unmoved.
Three simple words, but they carried an irrefutable will.
Perhaps Ding Yulong was speaking the truth, he didn’t really want to fight Pei Xuanjing at all.
But at this point, did the truth really matter?
Pei Xuanjing couldn’t afford to show mercy to any enemy who had once ambushed and attempted to kill him and who still posed a threat to him.
The current situation he was in did not allow him such mercy.
If today, Ding Yulong could convince him to let him go because he had unwillingly attacked him for some unavoidable reasons, what would happen next time someone used the same excuse? What should he do: let him go or kill him?
Moreover, things had changed.
The current Pei Xuanjing was one of the Remnants of Shenxiao on the wanted list issued by the Great Ming imperial court, and the bounty was quite appealing. Even Pei Xuanjing himself was tempted. So, what about the others?
In the martial arts world, how many would exchange their lives for the bounty that came with Pei Xuanjing’s head?
“Brother Pei, if you spare me today, I will make sure to avoid you in the future.” Ding Yulong offered another concession.
Pei Xuanjing’s True Qi circulated within him, and his explosive Blood Qi erupted. He stepped forward, stirring up gusts of wind, and the forest was shaking, “No matter your reason, you will die here today! l,
To decrease trouble and intimidate those who would provoke him, Pei Xuanjing needed to establish an image: He who dared to mess with him, had just one path – the path of death.
Perhaps, as Ding Yulong said, there was no real need for a deadly confrontation between them.
But unfortunately, Pei Xuanjing needed to set an example, and Ding Yulong had just become that example.
Therefore, Ding Yulong had to die!
“You’re the one forcing me to do this!”
Feeling the chilling murderous intent from Pei Xuanjing, Ding Yulong’s relaxed look turned cold.
Clang!
After all, he was a first-grade martial artist. Although he had just attempted to negotiate, seeing that Pei Xuanjing had no intention to let him go, he didn’t lack the courage to fight back fiercely.
Clang!
Ding Yulong leaped off his horse, pulling out his curved blade in the blink of an eye.
In the moment he did so, a powerful Saber Intent radiated from him, with the power of splitting the heaven and earth.
No one could describe just how fast that was. His single swing already possessed an awe-inspiring power.
Drawing Sword Skill!
This was Ding Yulong’s killer move.
At this point, seeing that Pei Xuanjing wasn’t willing to compromise, Ding Yulong didn’t withhold any strength. He was not going to hold back his killing move. contemporary romance
“That blade of yours is pretty good.”
Pei Xuanjing drew his sword in an instant. The Shenxiao sword sounded as it unsheathed and exploded with dazzling saber power, like a radiant sun.
This one sword swallowed the light of Ding Yulong’s blade, and his Saber Intent was absorbed by the sword.
In this one moment, the whole world seemed to be filled with this bright and radiant sword intent, powerfully cutting off everything.
Boom!
The dominant sword intent seemed to tear everything apart. Pei Xuanjing’s profound True Qi and boiling Blood Qi exploded, setting off terrifying waves and causing the lands to shake. Even the rocks and trees on both sides of the road were being shaken and uprooted!
The sword radiated brilliant light, accompanied by wind and thunder.
Ding Yulong felt his senses were covered by the sword intent in front of him. Even if he exerted all his strength, it was to no avail.
The only thing he could sense was the dominant sword intent, like a radiant sun that enveloped him.
He had nowhere to hide, nowhere to run.
Seemingly, despite his struggles.
He could not escape this one sword.
Bang!
The blade clashed with the sword, creating an earth-shattering noise akin to heavenly thunder.
Ding Yulong spat out blood, retreating several feet.
With just one sword, a first-grade level martial artist was heavily injured.
“Let’s die together! ”
Ding Yulong’s eyes were reddening, showing a look of determination. Even if I end up in hell, I will take you, Pei Xuanjing, with me.
“Hmm?”
Pei Xuanjing thought that Ding Yulong had lost all his strength to fight back, but he did not expect the latter’s aura to take a sudden surge.
Hum!
Ding Yulong’s aura changed, carrying an extraordinarily terrifying aura of death.
He swung his sword yet again!
The lengthy Saber Qi cut through the air diagonally, carrying the aura of death, sucking the life out of every grass and tree it passed by.
This sword, it seemed like it had come straight from hell, solely existing for murder and extinction.
Huangquan Knife Skill!
This was a Unique Knife Skill that Ding Yulong had acquired. Although it only had one move, it possessed the power to destroy absolutely everything.
This knife technique was extremely cruel. To master it, one had to continuously kill, using Blood Qi to practice the blade, until one was accomplished.
Ding Yulong owed Qian Ning a favor because he wanted to practice the Huangquan Knife Skill. If it wasn’t for Qian Ning using his power to provide him with enough death row prisoners to practice the blade, he might have been hunted down by countless martial arts followers before he could achieve success.
But even after mastering the move, he dared not use it lightly. One reason was that he couldn’t fully control this sword, and the other was because he didn’t dare to expose such a cruel sword technique, to avoid causing fear and being hunted down by others.
But now, seeing Pei Xuanjing cornering him to this point, he could not hold back any longer, and decided to use this move, even if it meant perishing together with Pei Xuanjing..
