Girl, I'll Teach You Cultivation-Chapter 173

The gazes of the captives fell on the person who was dying from the gunshot. Wu Guiyong could only watch on as that young life passed away. He felt a heart-wrenching pain. The one who got killed was Ji Yaomi, unparalleled in martial arts as well as fighting. Wu Guiyong's heart howled in grief. Baili Lingfeng was his strongest subordinate who no one could defeat.

Since he was down now, all of them would only get killed after getting played with.

However, someone came out at this moment. Wu Guiyong looked with astonishment as a completely unfamiliar youth walked out and couldn't help but ask his subordinates, "Who is he? Is he from our division?"

The men on the side shook their heads.

That female medic had recognized Jiang Xiu. She wasn't expecting him to volunteer but felt it was useless as he was only walking towards his death.

The guard captain, Xiao Chu, was being supported up by someone. His head had got injured due to the explosion and was dripping with blood. He was surprised to see Jiang Xiu walk out.

On the other hand, Qiu Yinru, as well as the other students, were excited as they had witnessed Jiang Xiu's strength before.

"Big Brother Jiang, be careful!"

Jiang Xiu smiled coolly then walked into the arena. His gaze fell on Meng Du, "If I win, you'll let one person go, right?"

"That's right."

"You won't go back on your word?" He had already seen how unreasonably Meng Fei acted. He hadn't let even a single person go.

"Of course, I won't. Mr. Zhou Hao from Heaven's Gate can stand as the witness."

"Alright!"

Jiang Xiu nodded then waited for this original position. He looked towards Arhat. The message was clear. He was telling Arhat to attack him.

"You're courting death!"

The look on Arhat's face turned ugly. He was short, and his style was similar to Muay Thai, but it wasn't entirely Muay Thai. His body had already surpassed the limits of the human body, so it was probably kind of ancient fist style.

One of the Meng Du's men asked the middle-aged man, "Mr. Zhou, who do you think will win?"

He was Meng Du's subordinate, called as Bai Chongyi. Meng Du trusted him deeply, and he was the No. 2 in the entire army after Meng Du. If it had to be compared to a bandit group, he was the vice-leader.

Usually, the vice-leader has high fighting abilities or wisdom but unfortunately, this man didn't possess both but he was still able to become the vice-leader, and the other subordinates accepted this as well.

"Hmm?"

Zhou Hao smiled and shook his head lightly, feeling somewhat helpless, "I'm not interested in anyone except for General Meng."

"As for this Arhat…"

"3 moves. He'll kill him in 3 moves…"

He revealed a confident expression when saying this. After all, the members of Heaven's Gate were quite keen.

Bai Chongyi laughed in response to that, "Arhat has a cheat."

"He isn't normal."

Zhou Hao retorted, "So what?"

The two of them looked at the confidence in each other's eyes. The bosses have their stage while the lackeys have theirs, no one liked to be on the receiving end.

During the time they were discussing this, Arhat had already started his offense. He jumped up then sent an elbow smash towards Jiang Xiu's head.

With the amount of strength Arhat possessed, he could easily smash a stone into pieces, so there was no difference between a head and tofu to him.

He planned to take Jiang Xiu's life with this hit.

Jiang Xiu's gaze swept across him. He took a step forward which seemed like a short step, but he covered a significant distance with just that single step.

In the next second, it seemed as if a thunderous sound echoed in the arena. Arhat's face suffered a hit from Jiang Xiu's palm, followed by which his face deformed and was then blow away backward.

Everyone was shocked.

The result was out of their expectations.

"H-He won?"

The frontier defenders couldn't believe it. This youth had not only won but also won with such ease. The enemy was someone who even their Sir Baili couldn't defeat.

Wu Guiyong revealed a surprised expression as well and almost jumped up in joy.

"He won!"

The expressions on Meng Du's men turned ugly. They had lost so badly, KO'ed by a single hit and thus lost a lot of face in front of the man from Heaven's Gate.

"This…" Bai Chongyi was stupefied.

Zhou Hao was shocked too. Arhat was at the Supreme Stage. He considered the odds. He could defeat Arhat in 3 moves, but the other side had done it in 1 move.

Jiang Xiu said, "General Meng, as we agreed, since I won this match, you have to release a person. You won't go back on your word now, right?"

Meng Du's face turned ashen, but he still squeezed out a smile, "Of course. I, Meng Du, always honor my words." However, he glared at Jiang Xiu as if looking at prey.

The captives became restless.

"Save the commander first!"

"Yes, save the commander."

Wu Guiyong also looked at Jiang Xiu. He didn't beseech him through his gaze and just sent him a serious gaze. Naturally, it didn't lack in expressing his goodwill.

Brat, let's see if you will act with integrity or not.

"I can request to release anyone, right?"

Meng Du made a gloomy face, "Yes, you can." He knew that Jiang Xiu was asking this for a reason. He also made a hidden move by letting Arhat appear at the beginning so that he could suppress all the challengers, but never expected that this brat would come out and defeat Arhat. Since the person from Heaven's Gate was here, he couldn't dare to renege.

Jiang Xiu asked another question, "If I want you to release Wu Guiyong, will you let him go?"

Meng Du clenched his teeth. If his gaze could kill, he would've stared at Jiang Xiu till he died. He grunted, "My words are as solid as iron. I won't go back on my words."

The captives were overjoyed after hearing this. They revealed a cheerful look on their faces.

Wu Guiyong was the same as well, "Young man, I still don't know your name."

"You don't need to know my name." Jiang Xiu replied.

Wu Guiyong nodded with appreciation. Indeed, a good soldier. You have inherited the fine tradition of my military district of doing a service but not asking for a reward properly.

"Alright, I'll remember you."

"Commander, take care of yourself on the way!"

"I hope you are able to escape safely!"

The captives gave various advice to the man. Over these years, the subordinates had already got used to expressing their concern for the commander. They didn't even care this much about their own parents.

Meng Du said, "Wu Guiyong, looks like you have good luck today but you won't have such good luck next time." He words were full of fury. He had grabbed Wu Guiyong to make an example out of him and show off to the people from Heaven's Gate, but it had resulted in such a messy situation. But no matter what, he had in the end lost reputation.

Wu Guiyong didn't say anything in response to that as he was afraid of infuriating Meng Du and cause him to change his plans. He turned around to leave.

"Wait a second…"

Everyone looked at Jiang Xiu.

"Did I say I'm saving you?"

"What do you mean?" One of the guards asked.

"Of course, the Commander must be saved first. His identity is the most important here."

Xiao Chu and the female military doctor felt a bad premonition when they saw Jiang Xiu swept across them. "I didn't say anything when your military district's medic prioritized your soldiers, but since I won this match, I'm going to save my friends first. What qualifications do you have to call my decision into question?"

Xiao Chu got furious, "Brat, this isn't the time to joke around. Do you know who you are talking to?"

"I wouldn't care even if he was the Emperor himself."

"I'll save whoever I want to first."

The captives became agitated immediately.

Wu Guiyong could make out that something had happened between Jiang Xiu and Xiao Chu. He asked him, "Xiao Chu, what's the matter? Did something happen between this young man and you?"

Xiao Chu's face turned pale, "Sir, didn't you send me to cooperate with the Jingmen area's adviser at the Medic Station? He's that adviser. He wanted us to treat his teacher and students first, but there were too many injured men at the medic station, so the medicine wasn't enough. We naturally prioritized the soldiers." His voice gradually turned lighter as he talked.

Xiao Chu didn't think he had made a mistake, but the situation had become like this now, so he naturally felt terrible since he was to blame.

That female medic also spoke in favor, "Those were the orders. We were just implementing our orders."

One of the other guards who seemed like a leader spoke out as well, "Young man, since you are the adviser of a military district, you should know that this isn't the time to act like this now. The top priority right now is to ensure the commander's safety."
