Chapter 235: Third on the Heavenly List, Fairy Yaoguang!
"Sir, please spare my life"
Zhang De fell to the ground and begged for mercy, but as soon as his voice came out, he was torn apart by the raging wind.
When he could see Song Changming's face clearly, the strong wind around him had turned into a small tornado, sweeping everyone including the entire deserted village into the sky.
When it fell again, only ruins and debris were left on the ground.
The strong wind subsided and the world became clear.
"Sir, Qingqing has let you down." Su Qingqing lowered her head and said in frustration.
She felt guilty for failing to see the trap and letting Song Changming come to rescue him personally.
"I'm not disappointed." Song Changming lowered his head and looked at the girl he had been with for five years.
"You are only thirteen years old. When I was your age, I was not even a martial artist. You are already ahead of too many people, so there is no need to rush.
Having this experience is a good thing for you, at least it makes you understand the dangers of the world."
Song Changming comforted her with a few words, which made the girl feel much better.
As for Zhang De's group, Song Changming didn't take another look after they were destroyed by him.
At most, Song Pingan will be asked to investigate one or two later to see if there are any other remnants that need to be eradicated.
"Let's go back."
"Yes, sir!"
The mountain col is not too far from Wangyue County. It didn't take long for the two of them to return to the official road. Wangyue County was vaguely visible in the distance.
Suddenly, Song Changming glanced out of the corner of his eye and stopped.
On the official road, a man riding a black horse approached him, approaching slowly.
This person is clearly Nan Chenguang, the young master of Jianya.
There are many stories about the love and hatred between the two of them circulating in the world. The descriptions are vivid and lifelike, and there are various versions.
It was as if the two of them were the most powerful twins in the world.
But in fact, the two of them only had a brief encounter during the extraterritorial invasion five years ago.
Apart from this, there is no story between the two, and many rumors are just rumors in the world.
Song Changming had an impression of the young master Jianya in front of him.
Speaking of which, Su Qingqing next to him also had an impression of Nan Chenguang. When she was forced by the Corpse Refining Sect member, she even used a pupil technique on Nan Chenguang, which put Nan Chenguang in danger.
Seeing Nan Chenguang again, Su Qingqing shrank a little and her eyes were a little dodgey.
After all, she did cause Nan Chenguang to almost die back then, and she was worried that, like Zhao De, he was here to seek revenge this time.
However, this time, Nan Chenguang didn't look at the girl twice, and all his attention fell on Song Changming.
"I came here today to invite you to fight." Nan Chenguang's eyes were calm and he went straight to the point, directly stating his intention.
When he arrived at Wangyue County, he learned that Song Changming happened to be out, so he simply waited outside the city.
Both of them are top players on the Heavenly Ranking. Their duel with each other would be too noisy, and they are not suitable for fighting in the city.
If we really want to draw a battlefield, it will definitely have to be outside the city.
"Invite to fight?"
Song Changming was not very happy and shook his head: "I won't answer."
It's not that he is timid, it's just that he really has no interest in confronting Nan Chenguang.
If it were five years ago, he might still be interested.
But now that five years have passed, his strength has improved too much. It's not that he doesn't look down on Nan Chenguang, it's that he bullies the younger one.
Now Nan Chenguang is not even thirty years old, but he is already over forty.
There is more than ten years difference between them.
If Nan Chenguang was given more than ten years of training time, and the two were similar in age, Nan Chenguang might be able to fight with him given his martial arts qualifications.
Now.
Not to mention anything else, with the terrifying strength tempered by his body and the immense power of the Eight Elephants, even ten Nanchenguangs could not withstand it at the same time!
Nan Chenguang seemed not surprised that Song Changming would refuse. He took out something from the bag on the side of the horse and threw it directly to Song Changming.
"Hmm!" Song Changming looked at the thrown object and his heart moved.
"I know your rules, this is a bet." Nan Chenguang said calmly.
Obviously, he didn't just challenge Song Changming.
Before coming here, he knew about Song Changming's past and knew that Song Changming did not like ordinary competitions. Only by adding a bet that satisfied him could he arouse his interest and agree to the duel. Therefore, he came prepared and prepared a bet that Song Changming could not refuse.
In this regard, Song Changming just wanted to say one thing, boy, you are such an accurate judge of people!
What was thrown was a picture scroll!
It is very similar to the scroll that Liang Zhaolong had fetched for him before. When he opened it, he saw that the scroll contained a scene of stars, rivers and bright moon, fully displaying the mystery and vastness of the universe.
Chu's third-grade Zhengyang Jue is hidden in two scrolls.
The paintings of mountains and rivers are called earth scrolls, and the paintings of stars and rivers are called heaven scrolls.
There was a turmoil in the palace, and two scrolls were lost.
Unexpectedly, the Heavenly Scroll in it was obtained by Nan Chenguang from Jianya!
I never thought that Nan Chenguang would use this scroll as a bet chip and put it in front of Song Changming.
Let Song Changming have the opportunity to collect the two volumes of Heaven and Earth and learn the third-grade Zhengyang Technique!
"Did you know that I have another volume?" Song Changming couldn't help but ask after confirming that this galaxy painting was authentic.
"I have the Galaxy Painting. Just ask the Golden Gate and you will know the traces of the Mountain and River Painting. I am not interested in this martial art, but I think you should want it." Nan Chenguang said slowly.
It was not difficult for him to investigate this information.
And as a descendant of Nan Wuji, he can obtain all the inheritance from Jian Ya and his father, so he really doesn't think much of the Chu family's martial arts inheritance.
Practicing this Zhengyang Technique was a waste of time for him and delayed his right path.
"Do you know how this scroll unlocks martial arts?" Song Changming couldn't help but ask, feeling that Nan Chenguang was well-informed.
"The picture scroll is not a mortal thing. It came from the ancient Yuan Kingdom thousands of years ago. It was refined with fire, and the martial arts will appear on its own." Nan Chenguang did not hide it. He directly gave the secret of the picture scroll, the key to this treasure house, to Song Changming.
These are all insignificant things to him.
Song Changming took a deep breath and put away the scroll.
At this moment, when he looked at Nan Chenguang, it was too much for his eyes.
From now on, whenever this kid wants to compete with him again, he will accept it.
After all, this meeting gift is too precious.
Seeing the change in Song Changming's expression, Nan Chenguang couldn't help but frowned and said unhappily: "Do you think you are a sure winner?"
"That's not true. After all, you have to compete to win or lose." For the sake of the picture, Song Changming did not directly attack the opponent.
"Since you agreed, let's find a place to start." Nan Chenguang said, riding towards the mountains on both sides of the official road.
"Bring this scroll back to the city." Song Changming casually handed the newly obtained scroll to Su Qingqing and asked her to take it back first.
As a bet, Nan Chenguang didn't seem to care much about the ownership of the scroll and had no intention of taking it back.
He went down the mountain just to compete with Song Changming.
Everything else is unimportant.
The two randomly found a place in the mountain and stood next to each other.
There is a lot of vegetation in the mountains, lush and green, with giant trees standing there. There is also a small stream flowing down from the mountain, stretching along the rocky water bed along the way.
The scenery here is quite beautiful, so beautiful that Song Changming felt that it would be a pity to destroy it.
The two horses stopped in the distance, grazing leisurely with their heads down, not caring about the duel between their owners.
At the same time, on a peak nearly a thousand meters away, where neither of them noticed, a man with a calm temperament was sitting there, quietly looking at the two people on the mountain not far away.
There was also a wine gourd in his hand. After opening the lid, the aroma of wine overflowed.
The man was none other than Nan Chenguang’s father, Sword Master Nan Wuji!
I saw him looking at Song Changming with great interest.
"When will the dignified swordsman start to care about the competition between his juniors?"
Suddenly a female voice came from the top of the mountain.
"Long time no see, Fairy Yaoguang." Nan Wuji said slowly.
"It's been ten years since we've seen each other." The female voice responded.
The next moment, next to Nan Wuji, a woman with fluttering fairy clothes appeared, as if she had fallen from the sky.
The woman is somewhat similar to Fairy Yuehan.
But Fairy Yuehan looked even colder, while the woman in front of her had gentleness and softness in her eyes.
This person is the current Pavilion Master of Wangyue Pavilion, Su Yaoguang, known as Fairy Yaoguang.
Ranked third among the Heavenly Rankings!
