Chapter 138: Ruthless Person
Longxing Martial Arts School was originally a relatively lively place in Chengdong District.
At this time, there were few people available.
Ever since Wang Qing and others from the Changxing sect canceled the authorization and no longer allowed teachers at Longxing Martial Arts Hall to teach Changxing sect martial arts, this place has become much deserted.
For many people, a martial arts gym is actually a place where they spend money to learn martial arts.
It is a place to lay the foundation for finding a profitable job in the future, or to think that maybe if you are lucky, you can cultivate to the ninth level, and you will have enough food and clothing from now on. If you are lucky enough to join the sect, you will be able to prosper.
Although there is generally a good teacher-student relationship between teachers and apprentices, when the martial arts gym really cannot continue to operate, most apprentices will choose to leave and go to other martial arts gyms to learn martial arts.
After all, no one’s money comes from the strong wind. If you don’t spend money, you won’t be able to learn the corresponding martial arts principles.
Therefore, the current Longxing Martial Arts Hall has become empty. There are only a few people in the once overcrowded practice hall, and even several teachers have left.
In such a situation, people who take advantage of the situation are naturally inevitable.
"Master Lei, you really don't want to consider it?" Huang Kaicheng, the new owner of Tongchang Martial Arts School, said with a smile: "With the current situation of Longxing Martial Arts School, my one thousand taels is already a very high price. After a while, no one may want five hundred taels."
He is the nephew of Huang Jingfu, the former owner of Tongchang Martial Arts School, and he wanted to take this opportunity to give his uncle a sigh of relief.
More than three months ago, Huang Jingfu was removed from his position as the head of the gym due to Zhou Heng and Kong Chengshun's affairs, and most of his family property was confiscated. However, he still relied on his strong influence in the Tongchang martial arts gym to push his nephew Huang Kaicheng to the top. He took the position of owner.
"Huang Kaicheng, aren't you afraid that Zhou Heng will settle the score with you after he comes back?" Lei Xiuyuan looked at Huang Kaicheng with a gloomy face and said, "He is a disciple of Chunyang Palace, and he is also a master on the human list. If you deal with us like this, He won't let you go!"
"That's right!" Lin Cang on the side also nodded: "Zhou Heng walked out of Longxing Martial Arts School. If he comes back and knows that you used such a low price to forcefully acquire Longxing, he will definitely settle the score with you."
The remaining teachers and apprentices from the Longxing Martial Arts School also nodded in agreement.
"Yes, I understand Zhou Heng's character. If he knows about this, he will never let you go!"
"Huang Kaicheng, don't forget how your uncle stepped down!"
"I think your scar has healed and you have forgotten the pain. When Zhou Heng comes back, you will be finished!"
They were all quite angry.
Although Longxing Martial Arts Gym is not a top martial arts gym, when has it ever been bullied like this?
It’s really frustrating these days.
When Huang Kaicheng heard these words, he didn't get angry but laughed instead. He shook his head while laughing, looked at Lei Xiuyuan, Lin Cang and others as if they were fools, and said, "Are you really stupid or are you pretending to be stupid?
"Do you really think that Zhou Heng will come back? He has already joined Chunyang Palace, but the Immortal Sect has been passed down for a long time and is the supreme Immortal Sect that transcends the world. Zhou Heng is a fool to come back like this. A small and broken martial arts gym.
"Even if Zhou Heng is really nostalgic and wants to come back to visit you, Chunyang Palace is thousands of miles away from Huangtong City. He is a mere outer sect disciple and an eighth-level martial arts disciple. It will take at least three to five years.
"In the past three to five years, even if we don't take over your shabby martial arts school, it will be almost in decline. Without the authorization of the Changxing Sect, no one will come to learn martial arts from you."
There was also a group of people who followed Huang Kaicheng, and they all laughed after hearing these words.
"Haha, yes, the museum owner is absolutely right. Even if Zhou Heng is really nostalgic and really cares about you, so what? It will be several years before he comes back!"
"A few years have passed, maybe you will still thank us at that time, haha!"
"Don't count on Zhou Heng. I am a disciple of the Immortal family who has come and gone. How can I still care about you idiots? You are so naive at your age. It's so funny."
The sarcastic words made Lei Xiuyuan, Lin Cang and others tremble with anger.
At this moment, a young man dressed as an apprentice from Tongchang Martial Arts School ran over. He looked flustered and anxious, and whispered a few words into Huang Kaicheng's ear.
"How is it possible? This is impossible!!" Huang Kaicheng's expression suddenly changed. He looked at the young man in disbelief, widened his eyes and asked, "Did you see this with your own eyes?"
"Yes, yes! I must have seen it with my own eyes. How dare I tell you uncertain news?" The young man nodded repeatedly and explained: "This is true, it is true, museum owner!"
"Damn it, how is it possible? Why is he so bold??" Huang Kaicheng was furious, his face looked as if he had eaten a dead rat. He waved his hand and snorted: "Let's go!"
He actually wanted to leave here with the people from Tongchang Martial Arts School, as if he had no intention of discussing with Lei Xiuyuan anymore.
This sudden change caught Lei Xiuyuan and Lin Cang off guard and made them very confused.
what happened?
"Let's go? Where are you going?" Suddenly an indifferent voice came.
This made Huang Kaicheng and all the Tongchang Martial Arts School disciples feel their bodies stiffen and shudder.
A tall and erect figure with a slender figure, a handsome face, and a handsome figure standing in the entrance of Longxing Martial Arts Hall, blocking everyone's way.
It was Zhou Heng who had just returned from Fucheng Yamen.
He didn't meet Wu Zongshan for long, and after saying goodbye and leaving, he went straight to Longxing Martial Arts Hall, wanting to see what Longxing was like now.
Unexpectedly, he encountered a "good show".
"Zhou Heng! You're back!"
"Good boy, why are you back so soon?"
Lei Xiuyuan and Lin Cang were very surprised to see Zhou Heng, and hurried forward to greet him.
"Master Lin, the owner of the hall." Zhou Heng nodded and smiled at the two of them, saying, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the martial arts hall."
After that, he looked at Huang Kaicheng again, looked at him slightly, and chuckled, "Looking at you, it seems that you have some blood relationship with that old guy Huang Jingfu?"
"You, what do you want to do?"
Huang Kaicheng was obviously a little flustered. Although he was in his forties, he was only an eighth-grade martial artist. Facing a master like Zhou Heng on the human list, he immediately felt a great sense of oppression.
Especially when he heard from the apprentice who came to report that Zhou Heng killed all six seventh-grade masters including Wang Qing as soon as he came back, leaving no one alive, and it was as easy as cutting melons and vegetables.
Terrifying strength!
Cruel and ruthless!
Too damn cruel, a ruthless person! !
This is Huang Kaicheng's evaluation of Zhou Heng. He knows very well that he can't afford to offend such a strong man.
But why is it like this?
Why did Zhou Heng come back so early?
He was just taken to Chunyang Palace by You Ziheng more than a month ago!
Why is he back now?
Is the distance of thousands of miles between Chunyang Palace and Huangtong Prefecture City fake? ?
Huang Kaicheng began to doubt his life.
The reason why he dared to add insult to injury was that he was sure that Zhou Heng would not come back in the next few years or even longer.
Moreover, in another year, his uncle will step into the level of the peak of the seventh rank. Even if his strength may not be better than Zhou Heng, the peak of the seventh rank is not a vegetarian after all, and Zhou Heng may not dare to retaliate rashly.
But now... what should I do? ?
"I heard that you want to buy Longxing Martial Arts School with 500 taels of silver?" Zhou Heng looked at Huang Kaicheng with a cold gaze and said lightly: "Is that so?"
"Yes, yes, I was bewildered for a while, Master Zhou, Master Zhou, I know I was wrong!" Huang Kaicheng was honest and admitted his mistake directly, then grabbed his left shoulder with his right hand and exerted force.
Crack!
With a sound, he crushed his left shoulder, and then endured the pain and crushed the bones of his left arm, which made him sweat all over and grimaced.
"You, do you think this is okay? I'll cut off one of my arms as an apology for my previous obsession." Huang Kaicheng looked at Zhou Heng with a humble and submissive face, and his attitude almost looked like he was kneeling down to beg for mercy.
The man in front of him killed six seventh-rank people from the Changxing Sect without blinking an eye. If a small eighth-rank person like him didn't correct his attitude, he would probably have no chance of survival.
However, this revenge must be avenged!
A gentleman's revenge is never too late after ten years!!
He made up his mind secretly.
"You are a ruthless person." Zhou Heng smiled at this, patted Huang Kaichang's right shoulder gently, and said with a smile: "Let's go, in fact, I didn't intend to embarrass you."
"Thank you, thank you! Mr. Zhou, you don't remember the villain's faults, you are kind and righteous!" Huang Kaicheng flattered with a flattering face, as if he had even forgotten the pain in his left arm and shoulder.
Then, he hurriedly left with his people.
"Xiao Zhou, uh, Zhou Heng... you just let him go?" Lin Cang frowned. He began to habitually call Zhou Heng Xiao Zhou, but when he thought of Zhou Heng's current identity, he felt that it was not good to call him that, so he changed his words.
"Master Lin, you should still call me Xiao Zhou. Calling my name sounds a bit strange." Zhou Heng smiled, and then whispered: "As for that person, Master Lin, don't worry. I have always been a root-and-branch killer."
Especially for someone like Huang Kaicheng who was decisive enough to break his own arm to make amends, how could such a ruthless person be kept? It would simply cause trouble for himself.
Zhou Heng patted Huang Kaicheng's shoulder just now. It seemed to be a warning, but in fact it was to secretly leave a trace of innate pure yang internal energy in his body.
This innate pure yang internal energy will continue to wear down Huang Kaicheng's heart along his blood vessels.
In half a month, he will die suddenly.
"Zhou Heng, thank you so much." Lei Xiuyuan sighed, "If you hadn't come back, we probably wouldn't have been able to keep this martial arts school. My father's decades of business would have been almost lost in my hands.
"Alas, even if we saved Longxing, it would probably be difficult to run it in the future. But the lifeline of teaching martial arts is controlled by someone, so there is nothing we can do about it. "
Although Longxing Martial Arts School was originally affiliated with Changxing Sect, it was not established by Changxing Sect, but was a private martial arts school established by Lei Xiuyuan's father decades ago.
But the development of private martial arts schools is limited after all, and there are few martial arts that can be taught. The future is not very promising, and there is little room for advancement.
Later, the martial arts school was favored by Changxing Sect and obtained the right to teach the basic martial arts of Changxing Sect. However, Longxing Martial Arts School had to do its best to cultivate disciples who could be cultivated for Changxing Sect.
In this way, Longxing Martial Arts School has the reputation of being a martial arts school under Changxing Sect to the outside world, and can also teach more and stronger martial arts.
Now that Changxing Sect has withdrawn the authorization of Longxing Martial Arts School, it can be said that the foundation of Longxing Martial Arts School's development in recent decades has been removed. It is almost impossible to build a martial arts school relying solely on the Lei family's own martial arts.
Lei Xiuyuan's words made Lin Cang and several other instructors look gloomy. They have taught martial arts in Longxing for decades and still have a lot of feelings.
The few remaining apprentices also lowered their heads. They all had a good relationship with their teachers, so they chose to stay, but everyone knew that as the martial arts gym became difficult to operate, they would have to leave sooner or later.
"Master Lin, you don't have to worry about this." Zhou Heng suddenly spoke and said with a smile: "I have a way to solve it, but you have to wait until I come back from Changxing to deal with this matter."
"Do you have a solution?" Lei Xiuyuan's eyes lit up, but then he focused on the second half of Zhou Heng's sentence, and asked in surprise: "What are you doing in the Changxing sect? Don't do anything stupid, Changxing There is a fifth-grade master in the sect.”
"That's right, Xiao Zhou, don't be impulsive. You are now strong, but you are only a master among the younger generation." Lin Cang also persuaded with a worried look on his face: "You have to know, even the strongest It's hard for a seventh-grade peak person to resist when facing an ordinary sixth-grade person, let alone a fifth-grade Zong. I know you want to help us vent our anger, but don't be impulsive."
"Master, don't worry, Master Lin, I have my own plan." Zhou Heng smiled and said: "As for what I am going to do, you should know soon. Well, is my bay red horse still there? "
"Yes, they are kept in the stable in the backyard. They are delicious and delicious." Lei Xiuyuan nodded, but he was still a little worried, "Zhou Heng, you are not a reckless person. You also have your own ideas, but I hope you will do whatever it takes." Focus on self-preservation.”
"Don't take risks easily. Your future achievements are limitless. Don't hurt yourself for a small Changxing sect." Lin Cang also persuaded with sincerity.
"Yes, I understand, don't worry." Zhou Heng nodded, and then he went to the backyard and took the bay-red horse away. He sat on the horse leisurely and left the city.
Not long after Zhou Heng left, news spread in Huangtong City.
Seven days later, Zhou Heng will personally go to the gate of the Changxing sect and challenge all the lower third-grade disciples of the Changxing sect. There is no time limit or number of people. As long as the Changxing sect dares to go out of the mountain gate, he will challenge them.
Lei Xiuyuan and Lin Cang turned pale with fright when they heard the news. They immediately decided to go out of the city to chase Zhou Heng and must stop Zhou Heng.
Damn it, you are just looking for death!
When the Yu family heard the news, Yu He, who was still injured, jumped out of bed.
"Yingying, prepare my horse! Damn it, is Zhou Heng tired of living?"
For a time, the entire Huangtong City was boiling.
And with the people coming in and out of the city, and Wu Zongshan deliberately sending people to spread the news, it quickly spread to surrounding counties and towns and even further places.
…
Zhou Heng was actually very clear about what would happen if the news spread that he wanted to challenge all the lower third-grade disciples of the Changxing Sect alone.
It was precisely because of this that he chose to leave Huangtong Fucheng early to avoid the trouble of being dissuaded.
However, the challenge is seven days later.
After the bay horse was equipped with red lotus harness, it would take less than a day to arrive, and Zhou Heng did not want to waste the remaining time.
So soon after leaving the city, he took out a talisman drawn with cinnabar.
Burn it on fire.
This is the talisman seal given to him by the top fourth-level master of the Zhoutian Xunjie Division, code-named "Five Emperors' Inner Seat".
The talisman quickly turned into ashes in the flames.
The next moment, there were colorful lights rising from the flames carrying starlight.
I have been very busy at work recently, working overtime until very late, and having less time to type. I will update one chapter first, and the next chapter will be at around 2 o'clock in the morning.
