Li Huan flashed his signature "peaceful" handsome smile and spoke loudly.
"As a street vendor, it's perfectly reasonable for me to be kind to people and pretend I don't know martial arts, right?"
"I make my living by selling boxed lunches with my superb cooking skills, not by relying on my martial arts prowess!"
"Since this is our first meeting, shouldn't I deliberately keep a low profile and be humble?"
Master Kongzhi was stunned and speechless after being rebuked.
In terms of eloquence, the old monk had no chance of winning.
"Outrageous! Outrageous!" Abbess Miejue was so angry that her face twisted in rage!
She raised her whisk and pointed it at Li Huan.
"No wonder the Heaven-Slaying Sword couldn't cut through your butcher's knife! It turns out you're highly skilled in martial arts and used your internal energy to resist!"
Li Huan said with a smile, "Old nun, don't try to comfort yourself or make excuses for your failure. I just used my internal energy to blast you away! My pig-slaughtering knife is really made of extraterrestrial black iron!"
Abbess Miejue hurriedly asked, "Where exactly is the Heaven-Reliant Sword?"
All eyes turned to Li Huan.
"Hahaha..." Li Huan laughed loudly, "Old nun, you're blind! The Heaven-Slaying Sword is right in front of you!"
Upon hearing this, Abbess Miejue took a few steps forward, looked around, and then lowered her head to examine the snow.
"You brat, you're playing tricks on me again! There's no Heaven-Slaying Sword here at all! How dare you!"
Without saying another word, Li Huan leaped up and flew to the driver's cab of the electric tricycle.
He bent down and reached into the sunshade, which had been partially retracted, and took out the Heaven-Slaying Sword.
Under the sunlight, the sword's edge gleamed with dazzling light!
"The Heaven-Slaying Sword!" Abbess Miejue exclaimed in surprise, "So it was hidden in the shed!"
Li Huan explained, "When you used the Heaven-Slaying Sword to strike the pig-slaughtering knife, sparks flew everywhere. I took the opportunity to use my internal energy to shake the Heaven-Slaying Sword to the top of the sunshade!"
"oh!"
Abbess Miejue and the disciples of the Emei Sect spoke in unison, finally realizing the truth.
Yang Xiao couldn't help but show admiration: "Young Master Li's martial arts are profound, and he can use his internal energy with ease. He can even knock weapons away and make a turn in the air. Impressive, impressive!"
Previously, Li Huan was sitting on the handrail of the carriage. He was able to knock the Yitian Sword away and make it land on the sunshade. It must have required profound internal strength to control the Yitian Sword and make it turn at high speed in the air.
After regaining her composure, Abbess Miejue shouted angrily, "Li Huan! Hand over the Heaven-Reliant Sword at once!"
"Damn it!" Li Huan cursed angrily, "Are you out of your mind! You're a defeated opponent, yet you dare to arrogantly demand the Heaven-Slaying Sword? If you have the guts, come and take the sword yourself!"
Abbess Miejue frowned, gripped her whisk tightly, and slowly stepped forward.
"Alright! I... I came prepared this time, to test your martial arts skills!"
Damn, that old nun is hilarious.
Came prepared? To test your martial arts skills? Clearly asking for trouble!
Suddenly, Li Huan understood.
Abbess Miejue refused to back down and publicly displayed her heroism in an attempt to inspire the fighting spirit of other sects!
Lacking combat strength, they can only resort to petty tricks.
After walking a few meters, Abbess Miejue slowed her pace and looked around.
None of the five major sects—Shaolin, Wudang, Huashan, Kongtong, and Kunlun—will send anyone to fight!
They weren't stupid; they wanted to see Abbess Miejue and Li Huan officially clash, and they were even more eager to know what profound martial arts Li Huan would use.
"Master!" Zhou Zhiruo warned, "You're already injured, don't fight Li Huan head-on!"
Abbess Miejue stopped in her tracks, raised her head, and said arrogantly.
"Although I am injured, I cannot extinguish the spirit of the Emei Sect and embolden this little devil!"
Li Huan's reputation has been upgraded, from "brat" to "little devil"!
Zhou Zhiruo raised her long sword and quickly walked to Abbess Miejue's side.
"Master, I will live and die with you, and wipe out this cunning little devil!"
Abbess Miejue nodded approvingly: "My disciple hates evil and is fearless in the face of danger. She is truly worthy of being a disciple of the Emei Sect and is a hundred times better than some cowardly people!"
While seemingly praising Zhou Zhiruo, it actually provoked other sects.
Upon seeing this, Ding Minjun and Abbess Jingxuan rushed to Abbess Miejue's side, gripping half of the longsword tightly and glaring at Li Huan.
"You little devil! Bring it on!"
Ding Minjun screamed, displaying a fearless and heroic spirit.
Li Huan chuckled, holding the Heaven-Slaying Sword in his left hand and drawing the "Mysterious Iron Mountain Pig-Slaughtering Knife" in his right, as he walked towards Abbess Miejue.
"Fine, since you're so brave, I'll grant your wish. This day next year will be your death anniversary!"
"Wait a minute!"
Xianyu Tong suddenly shouted.
Li Huan turned his head and asked, "Sect Leader Xian, do you also want to live and die with the old nun?"
Xianyu Tong smiled and spoke loudly.
"Young Master Li! You have no grudges against the six major sects, right?"
Li Huan said, "That's right!"
Xianyu Tong then asked, "Young Master Li, you have never met the Ming Cult before, and you are neither related nor acquainted with them?"
"Yes!" Li Huan urged impatiently, "What the hell do you want to say? Just get to the point!"
Xianyu Tong said, "Young Master Li has absolutely no connection with the six major sects or the Ming Cult. Your purpose in coming to Bright Peak today is simply to sell more boxed lunches and earn more money!"
"Right now, Young Hero Li is preventing the six major sects from eliminating the Ming Cult. His purpose is to get the Ming Cult to spend money on boxed lunches!"
"So, if the six major sects don't stop Young Hero Li, after you finish doing business with the Ming Cult and selling all the boxed lunches, will you leave Bright Peak?"
That guy asked a very insightful question.
Li Huan always declared that anyone who attacked the Ming Cult would be hindering his ability to make money.
If the six major sects change their strategy and sit idly by, allowing Li Huan to sell the boxed lunches to the Ming Cult and earn enough money, then Li Huan will have no reason to stop the six major sects from besieging the Ming Cult again!
