Chapter 23
Storm and Gale

Tongfu Inn.

When Lu Yu and Huang Rong arrived, Xing the Constable was also there.

Seeing Lu Yu, Xing the Constable immediately showed a delighted expression and walked over.

“Little Lu, I was just looking for you! The person you captured yesterday was indeed an evil villain from the Blood Sabre Sect, worth ten taels of silver in the Wanted List of the martial arts world.

As agreed, we’ll split the reward, this is five taels, here you go.

If you find any more good deals like this in the future, come and find me, alright?”

Xing the Constable said with a smile.

“Alright, no problem.”

Lu Yu smiled and took the reward money.

“A Blood Sabre Sect disciple? Why would a Blood Sabre Sect disciple come to our Seven Heroes Town?”

Bai Zhantang asked, puzzled.

“You guys don’t know yet, do you? It’s because something big has happened in the martial arts world!”

Xiao Mi, a beggar disciple who was begging at the entrance, immediately spoke.

“What happened?”

Lu Yu asked curiously.

“It’s said that Old Master Mei Nian Sheng, the Iron Bone Ink Orchid, couldn’t stand the Blood Sabre Sect’s evil deeds, so he challenged Blood Sabre Patriarch.

And the place of the duel is in our Guan Zhong area.

Naturally, Blood Sabre Sect disciples heard about it and rushed over.”

Xiao Mi explained.

Everyone realized upon hearing this, so that’s how it is.

“Then where’s the exact location of the duel? What day is it?”

Huang Rong asked.

“I don’t know about that. The Iron Bone Ink Orchid’s challenge came suddenly, few people know about it. Probably only the two of them know the details.

The Iron Bone Ink Orchid has always been low-key and wouldn’t publicize it.

As for Blood Sabre Patriarch, he wouldn’t dare to flaunt it either.

If too many righteous martial artists came to watch the fight, they would probably all join forces to kill Blood Sabre Patriarch.”

Xiao Mi said.

“That’s true. The reputation of this Blood Sabre Patriarch is not ordinary, it’s truly rotten.”

Bai Zhantang nodded in agreement.

There are many villains in the martial arts world, but few are as evil as Blood Sabre Patriarch.

It is said that he even eats human flesh sometimes.

Even among villains, this is quite outrageous.

“Won’t the Blood Sabre Sect disciples come to break into the prison?”

Xing the Constable worried.

“Constable Xing, you can rest assured about that. The Blood Sabre Sect disciples are not as united as our Beggar Clan. They only care about their own enjoyment, and there have been countless cases of infighting among them.

They would never offend the great power of the imperial court for the sake of their fellow sect members.”

Xiao Mi said.

“That’s good, that’s good.”

Xing the Constable immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

After gossiping, everyone dispersed.

Lu Yu handed in the fish and received his money, then he was about to leave, but unexpectedly met Guo Fu Rong who was washing clothes in the backyard.

As in the original plot, Guo Fu Rong stayed at the Tongfu Inn and became a small errand girl.

It’s amazing that Guo Fu Rong can accept the transformation from a wealthy young lady to an inn errand girl.

Ordinary people would probably have turned against it long ago.

Although she was threatened by Tong Xiang Yu and suppressed by Bai Zhantang’s force, it can be seen that Guo Fu Rong is genuinely repentant.

“Good morning, Miss Guo.”

Lu Yu smiled.

“It’s you!”

Seeing Lu Yu, Guo Fu Rong was taken aback, and then she immediately became interested, stood up and said, “Just in time, I’m tired of washing clothes, and my hands are itchy, come on! Let’s spar.

Last time I was careless and lost to you, this time I’m definitely going to beat you!”

“Uh…”

Lu Yu didn’t expect that Guo Fu Rong would want to spar with him as soon as she saw him.

Truly, skilled in playing but unskilled in the art of war.

But Guo Fu Rong was not his opponent before, not to mention that his cultivation had improved a lot in the past two days.

“Forget it.”

“No more nonsense! Come on! Overwhelm the Mountains and Overturn the Seas!”

Guo Fu Rong swung her palms in a circle, using her waist power to strike out with her palms!

The palm wind came, Lu Yu was quite helpless, subconsciously he was going to dodge.

But with a thought, he actually struck out his right palm as well.

Five-Mystic Light Smoke Palm!

His right palm changed unpredictably, as if it had created several afterimages, then the palm force struck out, a strong palm wind erupted from his palm.

Lu Yu actually struck first despite attacking later, and struck Guo Fu Rong first.

Although the power of this Five-Mystic Light Smoke Palm was not enough, its speed was extremely fast.

Guo Fu Rong only felt a palm wind rushing towards her face, which directly disrupted her attack.

Under this powerful palm wind, she was actually knocked back two steps before she regained her balance.

Seeing this, Lu Yu secretly felt regret.

“It seems that this palm technique still needs a lot of improvement. This little power can only make someone move, if I want to knock them back, it’s still too far off.”

Compared to Lu Yu’s current thoughts on improving the Five-Mystic Light Smoke Palm, Guo Fu Rong was dejected.

Because she lost again, and she lost completely.

She had the advantage of striking first, yet still got hit by Lu Yu first.

Although the palm power was weak, it was clear that the opponent had mercy on her.

“Your strength wasn’t this strong before. Did you hold back the day before yesterday?”

Guo Fu Rong asked.

Lu Yu nodded, acknowledging it.

He didn’t want to explain too much to Guo Fu Rong.

“Damn it, you clearly look younger than me, why are you so much stronger than me.”

Guo Fu Rong said unwillingly.

“Your set of palm techniques is too fierce, it’s not suitable for you. Sometimes martial arts is not always about being more profound, you have to consider your own actual situation.

Those who cultivate the Yi Jin Jing are not necessarily better than those who cultivate Luohan Quan.”

Lu Yu said slowly.

“Huh?”

Guo Fu Rong was taken aback upon hearing this.

This statement was the first time she had heard it.

“How is that possible? How could the Yi Jin Jing be inferior to Luohan Quan?”

“Of course it’s possible. That possibility is that the person who cultivates the Yi Jin Jing hasn’t mastered it at all, but the person who cultivates Luohan Quan has already mastered it completely.

In this case, who wins and who loses?”

“This…”

Guo Fu Rong was speechless for a while.

“In short, what suits you is the best.”

Lu Yu didn’t believe that anyone would be completely useless, they just haven’t found the right opportunity.

There are countless martial arts in the world, there are martial arts that are suitable for smart people, and naturally there are also martial arts that are suitable for fools.

After saying this, Lu Yu didn’t stay long, and left directly.

Li Da Zui took the afternoon off, so Huang Rong officially took over the kitchen of the Tongfu Inn and was busy, so she didn’t have much time to play with Lu Yu.

Lu Yu was happy to be free and easy, and went to the Xi Liang River alone.

This time, he didn’t fish in the old place, but chose a place further away.

After all, he’s been fishing in the same place for a while, and it’s a bit aesthetically tiresome.

After finding a good location, Lu Yu sat down and didn’t start fishing immediately, but closed his eyes and went over the third style of the Wind God Leg, Raging Storm, in his mind.

Catch the Wind and Seize the Shadow and Wind in the Grass had both reached the Grand Completion Realm, so Lu Yu was going to cultivate the third style of the Wind God Leg, Raging Storm.

This move is theoretically an enhanced version of Wind in the Grass, its power and speed have both been increased.

With no one around, Lu Yu didn’t hesitate any longer, he immediately performed the Raging Storm move!

Leg moves like a raging wind! Leg shadows like a downpour!

This is the third style of the Wind God Leg, Raging Storm.

Waves of leg force hit the Xi Liang River, instantly splashing countless water droplets.

Lu Yu was overjoyed upon seeing this.

“The power is indeed much stronger than Wind in the Grass!”
