Chapter 168: Chapter 119: Undercover Agent in Hiding, Enemies Face Off (Part 2)

Let’s show the world that our Primordial Martial Arts Hall’s reputation is well-deserved.

Even if they find some unknown outsider to impersonate a disciple, they shouldn’t think of taking advantage of me."

"This..."

Han Xiaoru didn’t know how to respond at that moment.

Should she thank Third Junior Brother for standing up for her?

It seemed the point had already been made.

Moreover, the way Gu Chen spoke, it felt a bit off.

Although she also felt that the opponent’s Eighteenth Disciple was clearly just a façade, an outsider impersonating, perhaps only knowing a bit of the Seven Stars Swordsmanship, trying to catch them off guard.

But knowing is one thing, saying it out loud is another.

Because there was also an impostor among them.

The so-called "Ninth Disciple," and that dubious Primordial Swordsmanship, a discerning person would naturally see through it.

Chen Ping’s performance couldn’t withstand scrutiny.

Who has seen a newcomer surpass all veteran disciples on the first day of entry?

Isn’t it just fooling idiots?

But others can say this, not their own people.

Han Xiaoru felt confused, not having decided how to subtly remind Third Junior Brother, now was the time for unity against a common foe, any jealousy or competitive thoughts were inappropriate.

Someone beside her squeezed in, blocking her to the rear.

"Third Senior Brother, your words are not right, what outsider impersonating a disciple, can’t Master Gao have just accepted a new disciple? Even if that person joins with skills, if he dares to appear, to fight for life and death, what’s wrong with admitting it?

Instead, Third Senior Brother, don’t add to the chaos, with your limited skills, are you planning to go on stage and lose, and directly export the Primordial Golden Body Technique?"

Chen Ping, with his experience, realized that as soon as Gu Chen spoke, he was subtly making his "disciple of the Primordial Martial Hall" identity ambiguous, aware that despite the inappropriateness, measures must be taken to stop his actions.

Otherwise, given free rein, who knows if it might bring disastrously severe results to the Primordial Martial Hall.

Directly exposing the opponent as a rebel actually serves no purpose and would make oneself appear as if sowing discord, believing in the principle of maintaining familial ties.

From the moment of Trace Origin and Steal Fortune talent possession, it was evident that this Third Senior Brother Gu had been lurking in the Primordial Martial Hall for three to five years, and with intent, naturally performed excellently.

Before his arrival, his popularity and talent surpassed even Senior Brother Zhang Gu.

He was even viewed by Han Wushang as a son, as the next generation successor of the Primordial Martial Arts Hall by everyone.

This was evident from Han Xiaoru admitting she couldn’t beat him.

Such a deeply embedded agent being called a spy is simply asking for trouble.

Unless caught in the act, otherwise, one can only watch helplessly.

Forcibly revealing his identity would backfire, making the Primordial Martial Hall people suspicious of one’s intentions.

He had learned Seven Stars Swordsmanship and the Primordial Golden Body Technique, certainly secretly cultivating "Sword Gang Stream," with the same plans as Gao Yue.

The wonders of this technique, making Gao Yue put in so much effort to plot for it, remain unknown.

’Then, better to force him, let him reveal himself.’

"Third Senior Brother, at such a crucial time of survival, naturally the strong should step up, there’s no place for envious little thoughts."

While speaking, Chen Ping appeared unintentionally, reaching out lightly, exerting half force, a solid ten-thousand-pound force pushing sideways.

"Daring to underestimate me, Xiaojiu..."

Gu Chen’s eyes flashed with deep-seated anger, but he kept smiling, reaching out to block.

"Poof..."

A powerful force surged.

It felt like being hit by seven or eight raging bulls simultaneously.

One moment of unpreparedness, unable to stand firm, he retreated several steps, landing on the ground with a thud.

This was a trap.

Where’s the martial ethics...?

Obviously, with a light push, you exert such immense force, who can foresee that?

Besides, Gu Chen couldn’t fathom any reason for the newly arrived Ninth Disciple Chen Ping to target him.

Pushed down by Soft Power, he didn’t suffer any injury, but the scene was embarrassing to the extreme.

From outsiders’ view.

He became the epitome of frailty.

Collapsed at the slightest breeze.

"Oh dear, Third Senior Brother, see, I accidentally used too much force. Sorry, sorry."

Seeing Gu Chen fall, Chen Ping looked shocked, very apologetically bending down to help him.

"Stop pretending."

Third Senior Brother Gu Chen was furious, veins bulging on his forehead, silver light flashing, and not waiting for Chen Ping to help him, he sprang up like lightning, pressing a palm towards Chen Ping’s chest.

[Primordial Palm.]

"No."

"Don’t do it..."

Sima Rou and Han Xiaoru both exclaimed together, Han Wushang’s face also changed drastically.

The duel hadn’t even started, yet their two main members began to cause a scene.

Making a laughingstock.

He didn’t notice, standing not far away, Gao Yue also had an uncertain gaze, not knowing what he was contemplating.

"Silver Body Realm, Third Senior Brother also reached the Silver Body Realm, but why target Ninth Junior Brother with full force?"

The disciples of the Primordial Martial Hall were wide-eyed in shock.

A commotion arose among those around.

In-fighting among fellow disciples?

Chen Ping smiled.

Seeing Gu Chen, the rebel, riled up to the point of madness in his eyes, using the Silver Body Realm’s Primordial Technique, and attacking him with full force, knowing the timing was now truly perfect.
