Chapter Twenty-Seven: Inviting the Moon Against Qiao Feng



The woman in green had a fair complexion, captivating eyes, and was exceptionally beautiful and dignified.

Inviting the Moon?

Bian Lang was startled and clasped his hands in greeting, asking, "Are you the Palace Master Yaoyue of Yihua Palace?"

"A mere corpse driver, yet he recognizes me?" The woman in green looked astonished.

Every smile and frown of hers has a captivating magic.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Your reputation is renowned throughout the martial arts world, and you have many acquaintances."

"Seeing how polite you are, little one, I won't make things difficult for you. But I want to take Qiao Feng's body with me." Yao Yue was highly skilled in martial arts and feared no one. She was about to carry Qiao Feng's body away when she suddenly heard Bian Lang turn back. For some reason, she jumped onto the roof beam and hid there.

Bian Lang asked curiously, "What does Senior want with Master Qiao's remains?"

"It's all because my younger sister admires Master Qiao the most," Yaoyue sighed softly.

Inside the Yihua Palace, there is an ice coffin. If Qiao Feng's body is placed inside, it will remain intact for a thousand years.

Although Qiao Feng's sister Lianxing could not have him while he was alive, if she could stay by his body for the rest of her life, it would be a wish fulfilled.

Bian Lang shook his head and frowned, saying, "Isn't this too outrageous?"

"Think carefully before you speak," Yaoyue's voice turned cold.

Bian Lang said, "Senior, could you grant me a few more days? After I deliver Master Qiao's body to the Beggars' Sect headquarters, you can then go to the Beggars' Sect headquarters to take the body away. How about that?"

"Isn't that too much trouble?" Yaoyue chuckled.

Bian Lang chuckled and said, "I think you don't dare to storm the Beggars' Sect headquarters, do you, senior?"

The Beggars' Sect headquarters is heavily guarded and riddled with traps, capable of withstanding not only martial arts masters but also thousands of troops.

No matter how skilled Yaoyue was in martial arts, going alone to storm the Beggars' Sect headquarters would still involve a great deal of risk.

“There’s no need to risk your life for something that’s within easy reach.” Yaoyue wasn’t stupid either.

Taking a corpse along the way is much easier than forcibly robbing it from the Beggars' Sect headquarters.

Bian Lang shook his head helplessly and said, "Yaoyue, I'm just giving you a chance so that you can get what you want."

"You brat, how dare you address me by my name?" Yaoyue's expression changed drastically.

Bian Lang smiled and said, "I have lived for ten thousand years, so in my eyes you are nothing more than a naked baby in swaddling clothes."

"You're asking for it!" Yaoyue roared in anger.

With a slight sway, Yaoyue moved in front of Bianlang, her slender hands gently turning, unleashing a torrent of power.

Swish.

Suddenly, a sword's edge grazed Yaoyue's cheek.

If Yaoyue hadn't withdrawn her attack in time, her delicate and beautiful face would have been ruined.

"Brother Bian, are you alright?" Shangguan Hongyu stood in front of Bian Lang with her sword drawn, her face full of anger.

Princess Yaoyue laughed and said, "I never imagined that a corpse driver would have such a lovely maidservant to serve him in bed."

"Who are you?" Shangguan Hongyu remained unmoved by Yaoyue's words.

Yaoyue coldly replied, "Yaoyue of Yihua Palace."

"The Grand Palace Master of Yihua Palace?" Shangguan Hongyu's expression changed drastically.

She slowly turned her head to look at Bian Lang, her eyes blinking as if to tell him to quickly take Qiao Feng's body away first, as she could only try to buy some time and was no match for Yao Yue.

Yaoyue slowly raised her right hand and said coldly, "I already gave you a chance, but unfortunately..."

Bian Lang asked with a smile, "Yaoyue, do you think you are more powerful, or does Master Qiao think he is more powerful?"

"Master Qiao's skills are unparalleled, and he is universally recognized as the best in the world. I, Yaoyue, am no match for him." Yaoyue still admired Qiao Feng very much.

Bian Lang said, "Then I'm relieved."

"What do you mean by that?" Yaoyue's eyes darkened.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "I just asked Master Qiao, and he said he really wants to spar with you."

"I would also like to spar with Master Qiao, but unfortunately, I will never have the chance in this lifetime," Yaoyue sighed softly.

Bian Lang waved his hand and said, "Don't sigh yet. I can help you fulfill your wish right now."

Inviting the moon was puzzled.

Bian Lang was already gently shaking the Soul-Capturing Bell, and the sound of the Soul-Capturing Bell was particularly jarring.

Inviting the moon, she frowned frequently.

"Look behind you," Shangguan Hongyu called out.

Shangguan Hongyu hadn't expected that Bian Lang could control the corpses even during the day.

Bian Lang had previously manipulated the corpses of Cai Xishi and others, and the results were astonishing.

If Bian Lang could also involve Qiao Feng's remains in the battle now, their chances of victory would greatly increase.

Even if Yaoyue possesses unparalleled martial arts skills, she is unlikely to gain any advantage.

Yaoyue, however, was not fooled by Shangguan Hongyu and said sarcastically, "Such a clumsy trick can only fool a three-year-old."

Bian Lang put away the Soul-Capturing Bell, clasped his hands and said, "Hero Qiao, I'll still have to trouble you after I die. When I send you back to the Beggars' Sect headquarters, I'll definitely burn more valuable items for you so you'll have money to buy wine and food over there."

"Playing tricks!" Yaoyue rebuked angrily, about to strike Bian Lang again, when she suddenly felt a powerful force coming from behind. Turning around, she saw Qiao Feng already rushing towards her.

It wasn't surprising that Qiao Feng's corpse rushed over, after all, Bian Lang was a corpse driver, and controlling corpses with the Soul-Capturing Bell was his specialty.

The key was that when Qiao Feng struck out with his palm, the force was like a surging tide, and the oppressive power was terrifying.

I had long heard that Qiao Feng possessed profound internal strength, making him invincible in the world. Even in death, this palm strike was extraordinary.

Yaoyue dodged, but Qiao Feng followed closely, striking again and again with powerful palm strikes, each one capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks.

Yaoyue's "Shifting Flowers and Receiving Jade Palm" is a peerless martial art, and it is evenly matched with Qiao Feng's "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms".

Forced into a corner, Yaoyue had no choice but to exchange a few blows with Qiao Feng. With a loud rumble, the entire Corpse Transport Inn shook as if it were about to collapse.

Shangguan Hongyu originally intended to cooperate with Qiao Feng's remains to deal with Yaoyue.

Unexpectedly, once these two clashed, she didn't even have a chance to make a move.

The powerful impact of their palm strikes prevented her from getting close.

Bian Lang suddenly grabbed Shangguan Hongyu's hand and said, "I don't think this inn can be saved. Let's go outside first."

"Mmm." Shangguan Hongyu's face flushed red.

Once outside, all that could be heard was a series of loud banging sounds coming from inside the inn. The entire inn was shaking violently, and the roof tiles were shattering one after another.

"Brother Bian, do you think Master Qiao can win?" Shangguan Hongyu asked with considerable concern.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Even if we can't beat her, we can still make Yaoyue suffer and run away with her tail between her legs."

The journey was peaceful until Yaoyue appeared, which was a truly terrifying whirlpool.

Bian Lang once said that controlling corpses in battle can only be used once. What should he do if he encounters a master like Yaoyue again on the road ahead?

Click.

The pillar in front of the door suddenly burst open with a crack the width of a finger.

The next instant, the entire inn collapsed, sending up clouds of dust.

"Is Master Qiao alright?" Shangguan Hongyu asked in surprise.

Bian Lang said, "At most, the body will be slightly damaged. If it's serious, we'll sew it up."

"You can even sew up corpses?" Shangguan Hongyu was stunned.

Bian Lang laughed and said, "Knowing how to sew is enough."

Just then, Yaoyue darted out of the ruins and disappeared outside the courtyard wall in a few leaps.
