"withdraw!"
The group of men in black immediately retreated.
I dare not stay for long!
Xu Sheng didn't chase them either.
Sure enough, it didn't take long.
A large group of soldiers surrounded them.
They directly surrounded these men in black.
There is no need for Xu Sheng to take any action at all.
All the men in black were captured.
However, what was unexpected was that when these men in black saw that they could not escape, they actually committed suicide decisively!
This made Xu Sheng frown.
Who is this person? Why did he attack Xu Longtao?
And they are all death warriors who will commit suicide if they fail!
Of course, since they were not here for him, Xu Sheng did not personally investigate so much.
What is the final conclusion of this matter?
Because all the killers are dead!
There is no evidence to prove the truth!
No one can explain it.
We can only guess!
'The competition for the young marshal has reached a fever pitch!'
The last guess is the one most people agree with.
After all, the Xu warlords now rule one-seventh of the world's land.
Although the country has not yet been established!
No dynasty was established!
No country name of its own!
But rights are real!
It already has the appearance of a small kingdom.
Xu Huateng is equivalent to the emperor.
Xu Longtao, Xu Sheng, Xu Longxiang and others are equivalent to princes.
Even if they don't want to fight for the throne!
But the people around them will push them into that position!
The fight for the throne is bloody!
Everyone speculated that it was one of Xu Huateng's other outstanding descendants who had the opportunity to inherit the throne who took action.
Because Xu Longtao is the most popular candidate for successor!
Xu Longtao is dead! Who is the beneficiary?
Who is naturally the most suspected!
However, these suspects all denied that they were the ones who did it!
And each of them gave a sincere speech expressing the deep love between family members!
In the end, this matter ended in confusion!
It is impossible to determine who the real culprit behind the scenes is!
The only thing that is certain is Xu Sheng’s martial arts strength!
That day!
The news that the twelve-year-old Xu Sheng killed six acquired masters on the street by himself had spread far and wide and shocked the whole city.
"It turns out that Master Xu Longsheng has been hiding his abilities all along!"
"He's not some thousand-year-old runner-up at all!"
"His knife was really fast that day!"
"At the age of twelve, his sword is like a phantom, and every strike is deadly!"
"I saw this with my own eyes. I was eating noodles nearby at the time!"
"Isn't this too strong? At only twelve years old, he has already cultivated his internal strength to the level of an acquired master, and his swordsmanship is so fierce!"
"As expected of a martial arts genius!"
"Is this the key point? The key point is that he is hiding his incompetence! This problem is very serious!"
This incident caused countless people to talk about it and caused a lot of uproar.
Not only the Xu family members, but also the people of the entire city are all paying attention to the follow-up of this incident.
Because Xu Sheng had always been hiding his abilities!
Apart from his martial arts skills showing the level of being the 'eternal runner-up'!
He is usually a mess in terms of studying, military strategy, etc.
Therefore, Xu Sheng is not a candidate for the 'young marshal' at all!
This was also what Xu Sheng did on purpose.
He had never intended to reach the pinnacle of power in this life.
I just want to pursue the pinnacle of martial arts!
So he deliberately portrayed himself as a martial arts fanatic who was obsessed with martial arts!
Want to inherit the big pie of Xu warlord!
One seventh of the ruling power in the world!
Of course, you must be excellent in both civil and military affairs!
Nothing can be missing!
If Xu Sheng, who is an outstanding martial artist, is also very good in reading, military tactics, etc., he may become a candidate for the 'Young Marshal'!
At that time, even if Xu Sheng himself did not think about inheriting this power, he might still be forced to be involved in the power struggle!
This is something Xu Sheng doesn't want to see.
Over the years, Xu Sheng has pretended to be someone who only likes practicing martial arts.
He says he has a headache when it comes to studying, and his talk of military strategy makes no sense.
It’s a pity that the character that has been maintained for so many years has now completely collapsed!
The scary thing is not that his martial arts skills are hidden!
I’m afraid of this!
These candidates for the 'young marshal' and the people behind them felt that Xu Sheng was not only lacking in martial arts.
The key is that this is the fact!
What should I do now? Xu Sheng was a little troubled by this.
The next night.
Xu Sheng was invited to a banquet by the first lady Jing.
Mainly to thank him for saving Xu Longtao.
However, Jing was still testing Xu Sheng in her words.
"Xiao Longsheng..."
"Mom, I'm not a kid anymore!"
"You have actually quietly reached the realm of a post-natal master! That's quite incredible!"
"What do you mean by a bit extraordinary? Mother, please don't say that!"
"Young people are so humble!"
"Why is my thing a little bit extraordinary? My thing should be quite extraordinary!"
"???"
"I'm so awesome! I'm only twelve years old, but I'm already an acquired master! I think I'm a martial arts genius unrivaled in history! Hehehehe!"
“…”
"Don't you think so, mother?"
"I think so. Then why did you deliberately lose to your eldest brother in the martial arts competition during the New Year's Day not long ago?"
"deliberately?"
"Isn't it?"
"Mother, you can insult me, but you can't insult my brother!"
"?"
"Mother, I actually just broke through to the acquired realm recently!"
"Really?"
"It's because I lost to my elder brother again during the Chinese New Year, and I'm really not convinced!"
"Then what?"
"Then after I got home, I practiced martial arts like crazy! I practiced and practiced and practiced..."
"And then, you made a breakthrough?"
"No, then I was tired, so I went to eat. That day I had roast chicken, two of them."
"???"
"Those two roast chickens tasted so good that day! I'm still drooling when I think about them now! Of course, they weren't as delicious as what you cooked today, mother!"
"???"
"After I came back from eating roast chicken, I continued to practice martial arts! Suddenly, I had a breakthrough! Speaking of which, I have to thank my big brother! Of course, I also have to thank the roast chicken!"
“…”
"But your sword skills are amazing! I heard about your performance that day! Every year when you competed with your elder brother, your sword was never that fast! If you could perform such sword skills, even if you only used the power of Hua Jin, your elder brother would not be able to beat you!"
"That may be because I have reached the realm of a post-natal master. With the blessing of the post-natal master's internal strength, my strength has become stronger, so the sword has become faster!"
"Really?"
"It is also possible that I have gained some insights from my recent sword training."
"So that's how it is!"
"Yes, that's it."
Xu Sheng didn’t know whether Jing believed it or not!
He really doesn't want to get involved in the power struggle!
However, at the thank-you banquet that day, Jing did not directly test Xu Sheng's talents in other areas!
Xu Sheng was not surprised by this, because Jing was not a cunning woman!
She wouldn't be so direct.
But Xu Sheng knew that Jing's temptation would not be absent, it would just come a little later.
And I don’t know when it will come.
Of course, it wasn’t just the Jing family. Many other people couldn’t help but test Xu Sheng!
After all, if one can hide one's weaknesses in martial arts, the same is possible in other areas!
