"In countless martial arts, this is the Hua strength!"
On the wooden platform outside the Taoist temple, Qiao Jinyin was giving a martial arts demonstration, speaking confidently and winning cheers from the crowd.
Inside the Taoist temple, the commotion caused by Qiao Mu was just starting to stir, not as attractive as the outside Qiao Jinyin, almost crowding the streets.
Separated by a wall, the Taoist temple seemed like two distant worlds.
Xue Changhe stood on the rooftop and looked towards the wooden platform, listening to the cheers of the crowd.
His confusion and bewilderment slowly turned into anger.
If it wasn’t for his previous contact with the Qiao family member, Qiao Jinyin’s martial arts skills would not have fooled Sheriff Qian, who was just an average martial artist.
With Xue Changhe’s martial arts skills and insight, he easily saw through Qiao Jinyin’s deception.
"Where is the senior Qiao Pianxin? Who is this Qiao Jinyin?"
Remembering the astonishing scene of Sword Tomb Qiao Pianxin’s swordplay and hearing the cheers of the crowd around him, Xue Changhe became increasingly frustrated.
Xue Changhe traveled a long way to Nan Province, abandoning his personal pride and shame, ready to humble himself and learn martial arts from Qiao Pianxin as a mentor, in order to fulfill his family’s long-standing wish, not to watch an old trickster talk about enlightenment on the stage!
"Who dares to come out and use the Qiao family member’s name for their own purposes?"
Xue Changhe snorted coldly, leaped up and swiftly ascended the wooden platform.
According to reason, it was a bit embarrassing for Qiao Jinyin, a con artist like him, to challenge as the head of the Xue Changhe Xue family.
But he couldn’t let it go, feeling deeply foolish and not wanting to leave just like that.
Xue Changhe swiftly dashed onto the stage, moving like a cat, stepping on the shoulders of the spectators below with quick movements, leaving a faint trail of blood-colored energy in the air, disappearing like a ribbon in the sky.
This light skill was truly extraordinary, catching everyone’s attention.
"Who is this?" Qiao Jinyin was talking about martial arts when he suddenly saw Xue Changhe take the stage.
Xue Changhe, expressionless, bowed to Qiao Jinyin.
"I am Xue Changhe from the Xue family, passing through this city. I heard Master Qiao talking about the amazing Hua strength martial arts. Intrigued, I have come to learn."
After speaking, Xue Changhe took a step forward, lifted his palm in front of his chest, pointed directly at Qiao Jinyin, already showing the Xue family’s martial arts starting posture.
"Xue Changhe? Xue family?"
At first, everyone was confused, but then they were all shocked.
The Xue family was very extraordinary and mysterious. Before the rise of the Qiao family members, they were once known as the most mysterious martial arts family in Jiu Province.
Especially the current head of the family, Xue Changhe, topped the Tide Listening Building Strength List a few years ago, making him a well-known figure in Jiu Province.
"Is it really Xue Changhe?"
"Xue Changhe wants to seek advice on martial arts from Master Qiao? Wow, this will surely be an intense battle of the titans!"
"It’s not just a battle of the titans! Today’s events will most likely be spread by the Tide Listening Building and become a famous story in the martial arts world!"
"To think that in a countryside like Heyang City, there is Master Qiao in front and Xue Changhe behind? I feel incredibly lucky to witness such extraordinary talents gathering together."
Xue Changhe’s mouth twitched slightly, feeling offended for no apparent reason.
Only Sheriff Qian silently thought to himself, "What bad luck."
In the old boxing gym, Old Black was able to convince others with reason and kindness, trying to persuade them.
But how could he persuade someone like Xue Changhe?
"Mr. Xiaoxiao, don’t act rashly, the situation here is complicated…" Sheriff Qian used his old tricks and whispered softly.
The current Sheriff Qian is now tied to Qiao Jinyin like a cricket on a string.
Sharing both honor and disgrace.
If Qiao Jinyin’s secret is revealed, then his role as a sparring partner might not end well either.
"Deep water?" Xue Changhe chuckled:
"The deeper, the better. Let me see clearly who is behind all this, leading me here under false pretenses."
He didn’t care at all about Sheriff Qian’s words.
With his skill, he could cross even the deepest water unscathed. Who needs someone like Sheriff Qian?
"Master Qiao’s martial arts skills are truly extraordinary, unlike anything Xue Changhe has ever seen. I wonder if you can withstand the force of my strike!"
Xue Changhe flew up, his palm releasing a powerful force invisible to the eye, heading straight for Qiao Jinyin.
But Qiao Jinyin didn’t have time to dodge.
With a loud smack.
His body was engulfed by the powerful invisible force of the palm, sending him flying in a disheveled manner, hitting the wooden platform and rolling several times on the ground.
The cheers and chatter from before abruptly ceased, as the onlookers below gazed up in astonishment. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ
"What’s wrong? Why can’t you handle it? Where is your martial arts skill?" Xue Changhe said nonchalantly.
With blood dripping from the corner of his mouth, Qiao Jinyin struggled to stand up from the wooden platform, looking pale and disheveled.
"The young man does not follow the rules of engagement… He may be skilled in martial arts, but I, Qiao Jinyin, am indeed old and not a match for the young Xue Changhe." Qiao Jinyin said with a cold face.
"Just because one is old, does that mean they can avoid responsibility?" Xue Changhe said coldly.
"A member of the Qiao family is known for their longevity and bravery in Jiu Province. Even elderly people over a hundred years old can still bravely go into battle, just like the younger warriors."
"Is this all you have? Pretending to be a member of the Qiao family, do you think everyone in the world is foolish and can’t see through your act?"
As the words fell, discussions began to rise.
Among the spectators, some had doubts but hesitated to question due to the high reputation of the Qiao family and Qiao Jinyin’s great fame. Now, they were beginning to realize the truth.
"So, is this Qiao Jinyin a fraud?"
Sheriff Qian on the stage felt a chill down his spine as things seemed to be unfolding in the worst possible way, just as he had feared…
Qiao Jinyin’s expression also turned cold.
"Young man," Qiao Jinyin said sternly.
"A Qiao family member is not just one person, but a large family."
"In a family, there are exceptional martial arts talents and also mediocre talents."
"I am indeed not a top martial arts genius of the Qiao family, not as bright as them."
"Just like even a sparrow has ambitions, though I am not talented, I am willing to follow the Qiao family motto of ‘sharing a bit of light, spreading a bit of warmth’…"
"Teaching the Qiao family martial arts widely is something even a mediocre member like me, Qiao Jinyin, can do within my ability."
At this point, Qiao Jinyin’s face showed a bit of appropriate bitterness and loneliness.
"Young man, you should not exclude me from the ranks of Qiao family members just because my martial arts skills are not the highest."
"…" Xue Changhe stared at Qiao Jinyin with a troubled expression, momentarily at a loss for words.
At that moment, Sheriff Qian finally spoke up:
"Indeed."
"Master Qiao Jinyin, in his seventies or eighties, is still very strong and healthy, much stronger than ordinary elderly people. His health-preserving skills are truly remarkable."
"Not to mention ordinary old folks, even martial artists at this age often suffer from weakened qi and blood, aging badly. How can they compare to Master Qiao Jinyin, who took a blow from the head of the Xue family and still managed to get up afterwards?"
"He is right." Some spectators below also chimed in:
"Master Qiao Jinyin is truly skilled. Even though he may not have mastered the powerful martial arts of the Qiao family, he possesses impressive health-preserving skills."
"That’s true."
"Master Qiao Jinyin does have real skills…"
The spectators below were discussing animatedly, leaving Xue Changhe on stage momentarily speechless. He could only point angrily at Qiao Jinyin, unable to find the right words to say.
"Young man, you are still too impulsive," Qiao Jinyin suddenly became calm.
With all eyes from the stage and audience on him like sharp swords, Xue Changhe, who stood up to reveal the truth, suddenly became unpopular.
Although Xue Changhe had great skills, he was still inexperienced, unable to come up with a rebuttal at the moment, and could only stare wide-eyed.
Suddenly, he seemed to sense something and looked up at the sky.
"Who dares to disrespect the gods and insult the immortals?"
A rainbow light suddenly appeared behind the Taoist temple, shooting straight towards it. In the rainbow light, a middle-aged Taoist with an ethereal spirit stood on a sword, exuding a sense of detachment.
The area in front of Qiao Jinyin’s platform was already crowded. While everyone’s attention was on the platform before, now when they turned around, they saw black smoke billowing from the Taoist temple.
"Fire, fire…"
In the distance, people inside the Taoist temple could be heard shouting, causing everyone to panic.
What kind of villain dares to set fire to the Taoist temple, even attracting the arrival of Immortal Chiyang?
Sheriff Qian’s face twitched slightly.
For some reason, he sensed a hint of unease, couldn’t help but turn his head to look back at the Taoist temple, feeling like this situation was familiar…
While he was deep in thought.
But under the reflection of the fire inside the temple, a figure was seen stepping on emptiness, ascending step by step, laughing loudly:
"So, you are Immortal Chiyang?"
"Qiao Pianxin of the Qiao family, come and meet your doom!"
Before the words had even finished.
The figure soaring into the sky suddenly accelerated, taking several quick steps in mid-air, reaching high altitude in the blink of an eye, with a fist that swelled larger than a cooking pot.
With a crisp sound of cracking, the rainbow light shattered.
The white-haired man standing in mid-air punched through Immortal Chiyang’s chest, throwing the body towards the burning incense burner below, making a dull sound.
This scene seemed unbelievable to everyone, even Qiao Jinyin on the stage forgot himself.
Sheriff Qian also turned his head, looking at the figure in the sky, feeling a bit stunned.
Only Xue Changhe quickly regained his composure.
He averted his gaze, his face no longer angry, just coldly staring at the bleeding Qiao Jinyin beside him.
"Old man, you almost fooled me just now."
"Who the hell asked you if you have any martial arts skills? It’s about you pretending to be a Qiao family member, deceiving for money and fame."
"Now, do you see?" Xue Changhe pointed to the figure in the sky above the Taoist temple, saying quietly:
"Do you even deserve the surname Qiao?"
Before the words had even finished.
He threw a fierce punch, without any hesitation or mercy.
With powerful force, he sent Qiao Jinyin flying off the wooden platform, bleeding from his seven orifices.
