Martial Arts Crossover: Something's Wrong with This Evil Sect

Chapter 217 Liancheng Sword Technique

Three days later, in the backyard of Tongfu Inn.

At this moment, Mei Niansheng stood tall and imposing, dressed in a moon-white robe that fluttered in the wind, with white hair and beard, exuding the aura of a martial arts master.

After Mei Niansheng recovered from his injuries, he was no longer gloomy and regained his former radiance.

At this moment, judging solely from appearance, Mei Niansheng had already become the "strongest" among them...

Dan Tianxie, watching from the side, nodded repeatedly, feeling as if an old friend had returned...

Opposite Mei Niansheng stood Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi, both holding swords.

The story goes like this: these days, Mei Niansheng has been watching Shan Tianxie run around doing things for him.

Feeling that simply healing Gu Santong's injuries wasn't enough to repay his kindness, he thought long and hard.

Finally, they came up with a solution: to give Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi some pointers on swordsmanship.

Although Gu Santong was proficient in various martial arts schools, he was not a swordsman by profession.

Regarding how to comprehend sword intent, Mei Niansheng felt he had some authority to speak on the matter.

After Mei Niansheng shared her idea, Shan Tianxie readily agreed.

Don't be fooled by the sudden appearance of all sorts of extraordinary people these past few days, making martial arts masters seem as common as cabbages on the roadside.

But that's not entirely true. Mei Niansheng, with his martial arts mastery,

The fact that he was able to make a name for himself as a martial arts master in the Jiangnan region shows that he is indeed a highly respected martial arts master.

No one would refuse such an opportunity to be personally taught one-on-one by a martial arts master.

Seeing that Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi were ready, Mei Niansheng smiled slightly and let out a soft laugh.

"Now that we're all prepared, let's make our move."

Upon hearing this, Xia Xueyi and Xiyu exchanged a glance.

Who will strike first? Or will they strike together?

Although the two haven't had much opportunity to fight recently,

However, their martial arts skills were much higher than before.

After all, the innate conditions were simply too good; having a grandmaster like Gu Santong by one's side...

Even if it wasn't deliberate instruction, just a casual remark at times could greatly benefit their martial arts skills.

In the blink of an eye, the two had made up their minds to learn from their young master's spirit.

What was that phrase the young master often said?

Forget about morality when dealing with martial arts masters like this, let's all go together!

"Senior, be careful!"

Without further hesitation, the two unleashed their full power and charged toward Mei Niansheng like tigers pouncing on their prey.

A cold glint flashed in Xi Yu's beautiful eyes, and the Water-Splitting Sword in her hand instantly flew out of its sheath, accompanied by a crisp, clear ticking sound.

With a slight flick of her wrist, Xi Yu taut the sword, which instantly straightened and transformed into a streak of light.

In a flash, several cold beams shot out, their sword strikes as dense as rain and as fast as the wind, aiming directly at Mei Niansheng's vital points, making their trajectory unpredictable.

Xia Xueyi also moved swiftly, closing in on the drizzle. His lightness skill was extraordinary.

His movements were as swift and agile as a venomous snake winding its way forward!

This is the Golden Snake Palm, a martial art that he developed on his own after obtaining the Golden Snake Sword, the most precious treasure of the Five Poisons Sect!

This palm technique perfectly blends the unpredictable and ever-changing nature of the Golden Snake Sword Technique. Its attacks are delivered from unpredictable and cunning angles, often striking unexpectedly from the opponent's worst point, making it impossible to defend against.

"Good good!"

Upon seeing this, Mei Niansheng's eyes lit up with admiration, and she couldn't help but exclaim in praise.

These two young men are far more skilled in martial arts than his rebellious disciples.

It's true what they say, comparisons are odious. If these two were his apprentices, he couldn't even imagine how happy he would be.

However, seeing that Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi were coming on strong, Mei Niansheng did not dare to underestimate them in the slightest.

After all, he had just recovered from a serious illness and his energy and blood had not yet fully recovered, so he immediately calmed his mind and became a little more serious.

In the blink of an eye, he had already sprung into the air, his long sword dancing gracefully in his hand.

Mei Niansheng unleashed a series of exquisite Liancheng sword techniques.

"I departed from Baidi City amidst colorful clouds at dawn."

"Returning to Jiangling in a single day, a thousand miles away."

Because it was a matter of instruction, Mei Niansheng did not unleash the sword intent unique to martial arts masters.

After all, it was just a simple exchange of pointers; if sword intent were used, the two of them probably wouldn't last more than a few moves.

Therefore, he simply responded with the Liancheng Sword Technique.

Speaking of the Liancheng Sword Technique, it has an even more elegant name in the martial arts world—Tang Poetry Sword Technique.

This is because this sword technique is not only incredibly sharp and exquisite, but also very unique.

The entire sword technique consists of thirty-one moves, each named after a poem.

Reciting poems and wielding swords, the charm of poetry and the intent of swordsmanship blend together.

Incorporating poetry into swordsmanship—regardless of its power—the sheer prestige of it is already impressive.

Just like Mei Niansheng at this moment, he recited poems and wielded his long sword, blocking all the attacks from the two.

Seeing this, Shan Tianxie's eyes lit up. "Wow, that's cool! Coach, I want to learn that!"

Seeing that Mei Niansheng had easily neutralized their fierce offensive, Xia Xueyi's eyes narrowed, and she no longer held back.

With a clang, a dazzling golden light suddenly appeared in the air, revealing that he had summoned one of the three treasures of the Five Poisons Sect—the Golden Serpent Sword!

"The Golden Serpent Sword, one of the three treasures of the Five Poisons Sect?"

Having roamed the martial world for many years, Mei Niansheng recognized the Golden Snake Sword at a glance.

After all, the Golden Snake Sword's appearance is simply too peculiar.

Xia Xueyi nodded slightly, and then, without much hesitation, unleashed the full power of her Golden Serpent Sword.

In an instant, powerful moves such as Golden Light Snake Shadow and Lightning Snake were unleashed one after another.

The sword strikes were like dragons and snakes dancing wildly, sweeping over Mei Niansheng in an overwhelming manner.

However, even though Xia Xueyi and Xiyu had used all their skills, Mei Niansheng still dealt with them with ease using the Liancheng Sword Technique.

As the two exchanged blows more frequently, Mei Niansheng became increasingly familiar with their fighting styles and techniques.

His moves became increasingly composed, and he fought with increasing ease, eventually appearing to be in complete control.

After a few exchanges, Mei Niansheng felt that it was about time, and he basically knew the level of the two people's swordsmanship, so he stopped holding back.

He uttered a long chant.

"A waterfall plunges three thousand feet"

"It seems as if the Milky Way has fallen from the ninth heaven."

Immediately afterwards, with a flick of his wrist, the powerful sword energy surged outwards like a cascading Milky Way.

Under the immense pressure, Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi felt an overwhelming force rushing towards them, causing them to lose their footing and retreat repeatedly.

"OK OK……"

After forcing the two back, Mei Niansheng sheathed his sword, stood with his hands behind his back, and smiled broadly, his eyes revealing undisguised admiration.

He sighed inwardly, thinking how wonderful it would be if such a talented and promising young man were his apprentice.

Thinking of this, Mei Niansheng's eyes flashed, and he turned to look at Shan Tianxie, cupped his hands in a bow, and said loudly, "Young Master Shan, I have a favor to ask, and I hope you will grant it."

"Oh?"

Dan Tianxie glanced at him with interest, and seeing Mei Niansheng's burning gaze, he seemed to already know what Mei Niansheng was about to say.

"Please speak freely, Master Mei."

"I observe that these two individuals possess extraordinary talent and are truly promising individuals."

Mei Niansheng first praised the two of them, then changed the subject.

"However, they still lack a bit of refinement. The Liancheng Sword Technique that I created is profound and extensive, and it will greatly benefit them in making up for their shortcomings and improving their swordsmanship."

Therefore, I wish to impart all of Liancheng Sword Technique to you. I wonder what Young Master Shan thinks?

After speaking, Mei Niansheng looked at Shan Tianxie with sincere eyes.

"Well..."

When Shan Tian glanced at Mei Niansheng's expression, he knew that this great swordsman, Iron-Boned Mo'e Mei, had fallen into his old habit of being a know-it-all again!

However, he was happy to see it happen. After all, a martial arts master is someone who can make the martial arts world tremble wherever he goes, and he is the absolute backbone of the sect!

With this thought in mind, Shan Tianxie smiled faintly and slowly spoke.

"What are you saying, Master Mei! As long as Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi have no objections, I am naturally happy to help them achieve their goal."

After saying that, he didn't forget to secretly give the two of them a wink, as if to say, "You know what I mean?"

Having spent so much time with him, Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi immediately understood and exchanged a knowing glance, as if to say, "Don't worry, young master, we'll handle this!"

Immediately afterward, Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi, without any hesitation, strode forward and, with a "plop," both knelt down, shouting in unison:

"Xiyu wishes to become Master Mei's disciple. Please accept me as your apprentice!"

"Xia Xueyi also wishes to become Senior Mei's disciple. Please accept me as your disciple, Master!"

"Good good."

Upon seeing this, Mei Niansheng was both surprised and delighted!

Although he expected the two wouldn't refuse, he was still overjoyed that things went so smoothly.

Looking at these two young men, they far surpassed the previous rebellious disciples in appearance, talent, and even character.

Overjoyed, he forgot all about putting on airs as a master and hurried forward to help the two of them up, muttering to himself:

"Get up, get up... the ground is cold..."

"It's Master!"

Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi obediently stood up, and their submissive appearance pleased Mei Niansheng even more.

Looking back on his life, he had no children and was all alone. He had finally managed to take in three disciples, but they were all ungrateful and treacherous.

Fortunately, fate smiled upon him, allowing him to meet these two outstanding young men; his hardships had finally come to an end.

After a moment of reflection, I felt that the bottlenecks that had plagued me for many years were beginning to loosen.

Dan Tianxiejian had successfully become a disciple. He smiled slightly, then turned to Mei Niansheng, cupped his hands in congratulations, and said:

"Congratulations, Master Mei, on taking on two excellent disciples today!"

Gu Santong, standing to the side, smiled broadly and joked, "Congratulations, Old Man Mei."

"It's all thanks to Young Master Shan."

At this point, Mei Niansheng's expression turned serious, and she spoke earnestly.

"Young Master Shan first saved my life, and then went to great lengths to find medicine for me, although he wanted me to treat Gu Santong's injuries."

"However, I am afraid I can never repay all the kindnesses I have received in this lifetime. In the future, if there is anything that Young Master Shan needs from me, as long as it does not violate the code of the martial world, I will never refuse!"

"Master Mei, you flatter me..."

Dan Tianxie smiled, but he was still quite satisfied with Mei Niansheng's statement.

After all, if a person can't even learn to be grateful, then frankly, there's no point in living.

Dan Tianxie glanced at Mei Niansheng, as if suddenly remembering something, and said, "Then you and your master can chat for now."

Then he turned to Gu Santong beside him and said, "Senior Gu, shall we go out for a stroll? Now that Master Mei's injuries have healed, we should begin treating your injuries in a couple of days."

"Well, that's fine too."

Gu Santong nodded upon hearing this. To be honest, he hadn't properly explored Qixia Town yet.

He had kept the incident of losing to the old man in the blue robe in his heart.

He secretly vowed that once he reached the Celestial Realm, he would definitely find that old man again and have a fight with him.

Afterwards, Shan Tianxie took Gu Santong, the bodyguard, and left the place to Mei Niansheng and his two disciples.

.........

Mei Niansheng watched Shan Tianxie walk away, a complex look flashing deep in her eyes, which instantly transformed into a resolute determination.

Composing himself, he slowly pulled out a book carefully wrapped in cloth from his pocket.

"This is the Liancheng Sword Manual, which records my Liancheng Sword Technique, which is famous throughout the martial arts world."

My three treacherous disciples, who betrayed their master and ancestors, actually colluded with the Green Robe Pavilion for this sword technique.

"You two are plotting to murder your master and seize this sword manual. Do you know why?"

"This disciple does not know..."

Without the slightest hesitation, Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi spoke in unison.

Who would know? I don't think I've ever heard anyone mention this before.

"All because of a shocking secret, or rather, a shocking treasure!"

Mei Niansheng paused for a moment, her eyes narrowing as she scanned Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi's faces, seemingly trying to discern their true thoughts.

He revealed the secret of the treasure after careful consideration.

The purpose was to convey this secret to the mysterious Young Master Shan through the two of them.

Firstly, it was to repay a debt of gratitude. He himself had no interest in the treasure, but what if the forces behind Young Master Shan were interested?

Secondly, it was for revenge.

Since the Green Robe Tower dared to send people to hunt him down, he might as well just tell this secret to someone the Green Robe Tower couldn't afford to offend.

Qingyi Tower will be in big trouble then!

In his eyes, Shan Tianxie, who had Gu Santong protecting him, was undoubtedly such a person.

Gu Santong was virtually unrivaled at the Grandmaster level.

If he recovers to his peak condition, he should be able to save his life even against a master of the Celestial Realm.

As for whether Qingyi Tower has any masters at the Celestial level?

What a joke! If the Green Robe Pavilion truly harbored celestial-level masters, why would it need to be a clandestine assassin organization?

Wouldn't it be wonderful to directly emulate Wudang and Shaolin, establish a sect, and recruit many disciples?

"Treasure!"

"Treasure!"

Xi Yu and Xia Xueyi exchanged a glance, a hint of understanding flashing in their eyes. No wonder the young master had them become Mei Niansheng's disciples.

Besides Mei Niansheng's own strength, is there another thing?
