In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

Everyone present was utterly shocked; this young master of the Zhang family was truly an oddball.

Chapter 247 The Invincible East, Dominating All Heroes

"Liu Zhengfeng, you colluded with Qu Yang, the Right Envoy of the Demonic Sect, and have now caused the deaths of three of my good junior brothers and dozens of disciples of the Songshan Sect. I will make you pay with your life!"

Ding Mian suddenly roared and attacked Liu Zhengfeng with both palms.

His menacing expression was filled with murderous intent. If it weren't for Liu Zhengfeng, his junior brothers and dozens of Songshan disciples would not have died.

Bang!

In the rush, Liu Zhengfeng had no sword in his hand and could only catch the object with his palms.

The Great Songyang Palm is ancient, simple, and fierce. The palm force is like a thousand-pound boulder hitting you. Even Liu Zhengfeng's expression changed, and he was forced to retreat repeatedly by the palm strike.

puff!

Seeing Liu Zhengfeng injured, the expressions of the experts from the Five Mountains Sword Sect all changed.

The crowd below was dazzled by what they saw. How could the Five Mountains Sword Sects be fighting amongst themselves?

Moreover, Ding Mian's first move was a powerful palm strike, which directly injured Liu Zhengfeng.

Hengshan is a sword-wielding sect. Liu Zhengfeng is famous throughout the martial arts world for his Hengshan Hundred Transformations and Thousand Illusions Thirteen Styles of Cloud and Mist. In terms of palm power, he is naturally inferior to Ding Mian, the "Pagoda-Bearing Hand".

The Thirteen Protectors of Mount Song were mostly renowned for their palm strikes, including Lu Bai with the Crane Hand, Fei Bin with the Great Songyang Hand, and Le Hou with the Yin-Yang Hand...

Among the other four major sword sects, perhaps only Yue Buqun, who follows the path of 'qi' sword, can rival him in terms of fist and foot techniques!

Whoosh! Whoosh...

Just as Ding Mian was about to continue his underhanded tactics, three poisoned needles shot out in a flash.

In a life-or-death situation, Ding Mian narrowly escaped the attack of the Black Blood Poison Needle.

At this moment, everyone looked at the person who had made the move, who was a gaunt old man in a green robe, and their expressions changed slightly.

Qu Yang, the Right Envoy of the Demonic Sect!

Thinking back to what Ding Mian had said earlier, Liu Zhengfeng had actually colluded with the Demonic Sect.

"Liu Zhengfeng, what do you have to say now?"

Qu Yang's appearance essentially sealed Liu Zhengfeng's fate.

As for Liu Zhengfeng's so-called friendship through music and close ties, Zhang Xiaoshan considered it a joke.

The righteous and the demonic paths are indistinguishable in terms of good and evil; the hatred accumulated over decades or even centuries is an unbreakable knot.

How could a mere phrase like "the zither and the lute" resolve this?

If you want to retire from public life, you can simply change your name and go into hiding.

Zhang Xiaoshan thought Liu Zhengfeng deserved it for washing his hands of the trade so openly, as if he was afraid others wouldn't know.

Lacking absolute strength, Pianpian still wanted to challenge the perils.

Even righteous people like Tianmen and Dingyi did not come to Liu Zhengfeng's aid at this time.

The distinction between good and evil is clear; they are the most serious corruptors.

"When the sun rises in the east, I am the only one who is undefeated!"

A red cloud drifted in, like a sky full of red clouds, dazzling and eye-catching!

Coming to their senses, amidst the shock of the crowd, they saw that red cloths, each over ten feet long, covered the sky above the courtyard.

That kind of overwhelming and unparalleled power truly showcased the invincible reputation of Dongfang Bubai to its fullest extent.

"You fiend, how dare you be so insolent!"

With several shouts, Tianmen, Dingyi, Yue Buqun the Gentleman Sword... at least seven or eight people in the hall rushed towards the location of Dongfang Bubai with swords in hand.

But when everyone thrust their swords at Dongfang Bubai, they saw that the thin red silk was as hard as steel, and the longswords could not penetrate even an inch.

"A bunch of people who aren't even at the pinnacle of cultivation dare to attack me? They're courting death!"

With a cold shout, the surrounding red silk seemed to wrap around them like giant hands.

Upon seeing this, everyone drew their swords to defend themselves.

Tear!

The sword light, like a sky full of silver brilliance, tore the surrounding red silk to shreds.

However, before everyone could cheer loudly, the red silk in front of Dongfang Bubai flew like a rainbow from the sky, carrying an unparalleled and powerful force, and with unstoppable momentum, it smashed Yue Buqun and the others back to their original positions.

With just one strike, he directly suppressed eight top masters.

Moreover, it wasn't Dongfang Bubai's divine skill unleashed; it was merely a red silk ribbon that flew past like a rainbow.

Puff! Puff! Puff...

As the red ribbons scattered across the sky, everyone watched as the figure in the red robe slowly descended. The seemingly frail figure exuded an overwhelming aura, captivating the entire audience.

This is Dongfang Bubai!

For a moment, everyone was filled with fanaticism, fear, and murderous intent...

Meanwhile, Dongfang Bubai looked down at the clowns with disdain, his sharp eyebrows sweeping over Ding Mian, Liu Zhengfeng, and Qu Yang, a flash of killing intent passing through him.

snort!

A cold snort, seemingly disdainful, resounded like thunder in everyone's ears, deafeningly loud.

Like the Lion's Roar, it is as if a thunderclap has appeared out of nowhere, with only a trace of internal force mixed in.

"Ding Mian, you Songshan Sect colluded with Left Envoy Xiang Wentian and Holy Maiden Ren Yingying to issue this invitation to heroes, just hoping to use the power of the martial arts world to wait for me here."

This is utterly absurd! A bunch of worthless scoundrels, daring to dream of competing with the sun and moon?

what?

Dongfang Bubai's disdain made everyone present suddenly realize the truth.

They had previously wondered where this invitation to heroes came from, and whether it was merely for Liu Zhengfeng's retirement ceremony.

Unexpectedly, it turned out that the righteous and the evil forces had joined forces to ambush Dongfang Bubai here.

However, given Dongfang Bubai's strength, if they were to make a move, it's unknown how many people would be lost.

Many seasoned veterans felt that the other party's schemes were very deep, but unfortunately, they still failed to achieve their goal.

Besides Dongfang Bubai, there was another boss present – ​​the young master of the Zhang family.

It's obvious that the Songshan Sect and those rebels from the Sun Moon Cult wanted Dongfang Bubai to fight against that Young Master Zhang so they could reap the benefits.

Unfortunately, they saw through this long ago and didn't come.

Moreover, considering the losses suffered by the Songshan Sect just now, it was not just about the kindness of a meal, but also about teaching the Songshan Sect a lesson.

"Don't be so arrogant, you devil! Today, all the heroes of the world are gathered here. Do you think you, a mere sun and moon, can rival the stars?"

Ding Mian's opening remarks immediately bound the heroes and the masses together, like stars approaching the sun and moon.

While a typical top-tier expert might genuinely be wary, Dongfang Bubai's lips curled into a sneer.

"A clown is a clown, a frog in a well, ignorant of his own limitations!"

"you···"

At this moment, Dongfang Bubai looked at Qu Yang with a puzzled expression and said:

"This work does not believe it has treated Right Envoy Qu unfairly. Why would Right Envoy Qu betray the Divine Sect? Is it merely for Liu Zhengfeng?"

"Please forgive me, Master. My relationship with Brother Liu is like that of Bo Ya and Zi Qi. We are friends who share joy and have not revealed any secrets of the cult."

"too naive!"

Dongfang Bubai shook his head and looked at Qu Yang, who had spent his whole life in the Divine Cult. Could it be that he was getting old and starting to lose his mind?

"Can a religion just be withdrawn from so easily?"

Moreover, Right Envoy Qu holds a position in the Divine Cult second only to the leader. Do you think that just because you "make friends through music," you can "retire to the mountains and forests"? What will the other disciples of the Divine Cult think?

This is why a mere member of the Songshan Sect and a few traitors dare to plot against me, the leader of this sect.

Even a young master like Zhang could see this problem, yet you, a seasoned veteran, couldn't see through it. I see that protecting you today is useless; we might as well perish together!

Hearing Dongfang Bubai's murderous aura and looking at Qu Yang, could he really be senile?

Or are they pretending to be ignorant when they know the truth?

"Please forgive me, Master!"

Qu Yang sighed. Was he really so confused?

Perhaps only I know the answer.

"Gentlemen, the demon is here today, and he has come alone."

If we all rise up and kill him, the demonic sect will be leaderless, and the righteous path of the martial world will surely gain immense power.

Ding Mian shouted, wanting to launch a final attack, but Dongfang Bubai glanced at him with her beautiful eyes and said disdainfully;

"You're Ding Mian, the Pagoda-Bearer? Don't just shout 'I can't do it' and send others to their deaths. At least set an example and let this leader see the strength of the Grand Protector among the Thirteen Protectors?"

'Don't be so arrogant, you devil!'

Forced onto the shelf by the duck, Ding Mian leaped up.

Before he could get close enough to attack, strands of silk, like the sharpest hidden weapons, shot out along with Dongfang Bubai's Sunflower True Qi.

The incredibly fine thread contained profound internal force. Compared to the sound of it tearing through the air earlier, it was not only silent but also lightning fast. Before Ding Mian could even make a move, he was already pierced through the heart by countless threads.

Given the vast difference in strength, why would someone leap into the air and become a target?

Zhang Xiaoshan was speechless at the sight.

As the silk threads pierced through Ding Mian's corpse, the domineering power of Dongfang Bubai's one-hit kill shocked many people.

That was Ding Mian, who had just injured Liu Zhengfeng with a single palm strike, but now he was barely stronger than a three-year-old child.

Considering the heroes who were just sent flying by a red ribbon, it should be considered that they were shown mercy.

"Who else?"

His domineering aura, which looked down on everyone, made the eager crowd retreat one after another after being encouraged by Ding Mian.

Such terrifying strength is something they simply cannot afford to provoke.

They'd likely be annihilated by a thousand threads piercing their hearts, and not in one-on-one combat, but in a group attack.

Given their size, even a group attack wouldn't be enough to take on many people, but these threads wouldn't be crowded; the simultaneous deployment of thousands of threads is no exaggeration.

Even Yue Buqun, Ding Yi, and the others looked at Dongfang Bubai with fear. This demon's strength was terrifying!

No wonder even Zuo Lengchan died at the hands of the other party, and was completely crushed.

"Right Envoy Qu, Liu Zhengfeng, what else do you have to say?"

Faced with absolute power, all previous calculations are a joke.

Looking at the tragic death of Ding Mian, the miserable life of Fei Bin, and the Songshan Sect masters who perished in the backyard, there were five Taibao.

The Five Mountains Sword Sects are far too weak compared to the Zhang family and Dongfang Bubai, therefore Liu Zhengfeng respectfully said:

"Master Dongfang, I, Liu, will take full responsibility for my actions. I hope you will spare my family."

“With the Zhang family protecting you, there are few in Kyushu who would offend the Zhang family for a few ants.”

"Thank you, Master!"

Liu Zhengfeng immediately breathed a sigh of relief. He did not resist because the difference in strength between the two sides was too great.

"Wait!"

Chapter 248 Sunflower Divine Skill VS Azure Sea Tide

"Master Dongfang, wait!"

Amidst the astonishment of the martial arts masters, the six skinny beggars who had been sharing a table stood up.

Amidst the complete silence and serene atmosphere of the martial arts world, he slowly walked to the front of the stage.
