"A mere mortal dares to presume to call himself an immortal?"
"You dare to provoke the Peace Inn? Don't even mention that you're a half-step Grandmaster; even if you were a celestial being, I, Li, could still slay you!"
After he finished speaking, Li Chengqian's eyes sharpened.
He touched the top of the sword box with his right hand, and the two sides of the sword box slowly opened.
Five renowned swords, gleaming with a cold light, lay quietly inside.
The powerful sword intent made Ding Chunqiu somewhat flustered.
Ding Chunqiu: "
Wasn't he supposed to be a half-step Grandmaster? How did he become a half-step Grandmaster?
Although they differ by only one word, their strength is at least ten times worse, okay?
In a panic, Ding Chunqiu wanted to say something to ease the tension between the two sides. He thought that with a half-step Grandmaster and so many genuine Grandmasters, he would be reduced to dust.
0 ....
But Li Chengqian did not give him a chance.
"Gentlemen, behold, I possess a sword capable of slaying a Grandmaster!"
Five famous swords soared into the sky, accompanied by a sky full of sword energy.
Each sword aura transformed into a sharp sword gleaming with silver light.
Ding Chunqiu was terrified when he saw the sword energy in the sky.
This was not a move that should exist in the human world. He wanted to escape, but found there was nowhere to escape.
He tried to hide, but found there was nowhere to hide.
"Sword Nine, six thousand miles!"
With a soft murmur, countless sword energies poured down.
At this moment, everyone understood what it meant to be like the Milky Way hanging upside down from the heavens!
In the blink of an eye, Ding Chunqiu and his disciples turned into a bloody mist.
The five famous swords flew back to their scabbards, and Li Chengqian calmly looked at the bright red ground in front of him.
I've been in this world for over a month now, and Lao Huang has always been by my side.
Why would someone feel that they haven't learned Sword Nine?
Surely no one really thinks that the claim that Ping An Inn is unconnected to the martial arts world is just a matter of empty words.
As for Li Chengqian's current strength as a half-step Grandmaster...
Apart from the time allotted for storytelling, all other rules were set by Li Chengqian.
Li Chengqian handed the sword box to Old Huang and then turned back to the inn.
As Li Chengqian passed the masked demon, he paused, looked ahead, and asked.
"Can this sword slay the Five Great Masters of the Song Dynasty?"
The masked man did not hesitate and calmly said, "Except for Wang Chongyang, all others can be killed."
Chapter 174 You guys are all peerless experts, why are you trying to steal my sweet potatoes?
Upon receiving this answer, Li Chengqian nodded and then asked another question.
"How much skill do you think I used to kill Ding Chunqiu?"
The question caused the masked man to fall silent for a moment.
"Fifty percent."
Li Chengqian smiled calmly and said, "Ding Chunqiu is nothing."
After saying this, Li Chengqian walked into the inn, while countless martial arts practitioners were shocked.
What did Mr. Li mean by that?
Was that sword strike less than half of his strength?
However, this one sword strike was enough to kill the most powerful expert in the Song Dynasty. The Five Greats might not be the strongest in the Song Dynasty.
However, their names must be among the strongest people in the Song Dynasty.
While everyone was still in a daze, a figure blocked Li Chengqian's path.
Upon closer inspection, it was discovered that this person was none other than Long Xiaoyun's wife, Li Xunhuan's beloved, Lin Shiyin.
In a situation similar to the "450s," everyone's expressions were somewhat strange.
Long Xiaoyun committed suicide, and Li Xunhuan wanted to marry Lin Shiyin, which caused a great stir in the martial arts world.
Some people agree, while others disagree.
The vast majority of those who cursed were Lin Shiyin, who was ultimately Li Xunhuan's sister-in-law.
Marrying one's own sister-in-law is against all moral principles and ethics.
Now that Lin Shiyin has suddenly found Mr. Li, could it be that she wants to use Mr. Li's reputation to silence public opinion?
Lin Shiyin's sudden appearance left Li Chengqian somewhat bewildered.
"Miss Shion, is there anything else?"
Lin Shiyin gave a bitter laugh and said, "Mr. Li, may I ask you a few more questions?"
Looking at Li Xunhuan, whose face was ashen, Li Chengqian seemed to understand something.
"of course can."
"Mr. Li, is Long Xiaoyun a good husband?"
"No matter how many faults he has, his feelings for you, Lin Shiyin, have always remained unchanged."
Upon receiving this answer, Lin Shiyin's lips trembled.
"Mr. Li, were we wrong?"
Faced with this question, Li Chengqian pursed his lips and said softly, "There's nothing wrong with loving someone."
A single tear rolled down Lin Shiyin's cheek.
"Then Shiyin will ask Mr. Li, can this Ping'an Inn truly hide from the martial world?"
As soon as she finished speaking, a trace of black blood spilled from the corner of Lin Shiyin's mouth. Upon seeing this, Li Xunhuan quickly pulled Lin Shiyin into his arms.
A massive amount of true energy was recklessly pumped into Lin Shiyin's body.
Li Xunhuan, the carefree and upright scholar who once ranked third in the imperial examinations, was now weeping uncontrollably.
"Shiyin, why are you doing this? Didn't you say you loved listening to Mr. Li's 'Chinese Paladin' the most?"
"Didn't we agree to live in seclusion together at the Peace Inn and never have to worry about the martial world again?"
"Why are you still being so foolish? I really don't care."
Lin Shiyin weakly raised her hand, wanting to touch Li Xunhuan's face, but with the poison penetrating her internal organs, she had no strength left.
Seeing that Lin Shiyin's hand was about to slip away, Li Xunhuan quickly placed her hand on his face.
A slight smile appeared on Lin Shiyin's lips.
"Xunhuan, from this moment on, I am your wife, Li Xunhuan."
"Very well! From this day forward, you will be my wife, Li Xunhuan's wife. Heaven and earth bear witness, and no one can change that."
After saying that, Lin Shiyin used her last bit of strength to look at Li Chengqian.
"Mr. Li, you haven't answered my question yet."
Li Chengqian looked at Lin Shiyin and sighed softly, "Getting into Ping An Inn is not difficult, but staying in Ping An Inn is as difficult as climbing to heaven."
"Ping An Inn is a place of regret left behind by the martial arts world."
Lin Shiyin smiled; her smile was like the last rays of sunlight at sunset.
Beautiful but fleeting.
“Mr. Li, you are indeed the only clear-headed person in this world. You want to leave this martial arts world with a place of regret.”
"But I don't even have the courage to step inside. Peace of mind is my home, but my heart is not at peace."
Before Lin Shiyin could finish her last word, her hand fell limply to her side.
Li Xunhuan stood there, holding Lin Shiyin's body, speechless.
Faced with Lin Shiyin's corpse, all the martial arts practitioners fell silent.
They didn't understand who had driven Lin Shiyin to her death, nor did they understand why Lin Shiyin wanted to commit suicide.
She was just a weak woman, a weak woman who couldn't even kill a chicken.
She wasn't a member of the martial arts world at all, but why did she always feel that the martial arts world had driven her to her death?
What exactly is the martial arts world, and where is it located?
Li Chengqian stared at Lin Shiyin's corpse in silence for a long time before turning around and walking into the Ping An Inn.
"That concludes today's storytelling session. I'm tired."
"And one more piece of advice for Young Master Duan: all the women you've fallen for are daughters of Duan Zhengchun..."
"If you don't believe me, go back and ask him if he knows the birth mothers of these women."
Li Chengqian's words struck Duan Yu like a thunderbolt.
But Li Chengqian didn't give him a chance to ask questions; his figure had already completely disappeared from the Ping An Inn.
Yaoyue, who was outside the inn, witnessed the whole process, and at this moment she felt a strange sense of unease.
But I don't know where this restlessness comes from.
Looking at the Ping An Inn behind her, Yao Yue felt a strange sense of peace.
Perhaps the answer can be found here.
Li Chengqian left, and many others left as well, but some people stayed behind.
