Chapter 1136 Overestimating One's Capabilities
Kong Chan did not dodge or evade, but gathered his inner strength at his fingertips.
He used two fingers to hold the tip of the sword that was thrusting straight at him.
With the moonlight coming in through the window, he could see the assassin's face clearly.
It was a young woman with a very unfamiliar face.
The woman looks very young, but her hair is completely white.
She stared at Kong Chan, her eyes filled with hatred.
Xiao Xixi found that no matter how hard she tried, the sword in her hand could not move forward any further.
She could only draw her sword and retreat.
Kong Chan loosened his fingers and stood up slowly.
"Shouldn't the girl tell me her name when she visits you so late at night?"
Just now, he was almost completely hidden in the shadows, so that his facial features were covered by the darkness and looked blurry.
At this time he stood up and his face became clearer.
When Xiao Xixi saw his face clearly, she paused for a moment when she was about to attack again.
She found this place through divination, and the result of divination showed that the person living here was Kong Chan.
But the middle-aged Taoist priest in front of her was completely different from the Kong Chan she had met in the palace a few years ago.
The Kong Chan she met in the palace had completely white hair, and the corners of his mouth were always slightly raised when he looked at people. Although he had an ordinary appearance, he looked like a charlatan because he had a bit of otherworldly immortal aura.
The middle-aged Taoist in front of him had black hair and handsome features, but his face was a little pale. He was very tall, but too thin, making him look sickly weak. The loose white Taoist robe on him made him look even weaker, as if he would be blown away by the wind at any time.
When Xiao Xixi met Kong Chan in the palace, she couldn't see through his face.
At that time, she guessed that Kong Chan had used some means such as disguise to change his appearance.
So when she came to seek revenge on Kong Chan this time, she was mentally prepared to see another face.
But when she actually saw him this time, she was still surprised.
It wasn’t because of his unexpectedly handsome face;
Xiao Xixi figured out from his face that he had a deep blood relationship with Chu Jian!
She immediately recalled the last words her master had said before his death:
"Don't tell him about Xiaojian's life story..."
At that time, she had no idea what her master meant.
But now, she seemed to understand.
However, even if she understood, it would not change her determination to avenge her master!
Xiao Xixi swung the sword towards Kong Chan again, with only hatred and murderous intent in her heart.
…
Fang Wujiu found a way to lure away the rebels who were besieging outside Dayue Village, allowing Wen Jiucheng, Pei Qianhuo, and Chu Jian to find an opportunity to sneak out of Dayue Village.
Wen Jiucheng held the compass in one hand, silently reciting Xixi's birth date in his mind, and carefully told the fortune.
Chu Jian asked impatiently.
"How's it going? Did you figure out the result? Where is Senior Sister now?"
Pei Qianhuo tapped him on the forehead, warning him to be quiet and not disturb his second senior brother who was fortune-telling.
They don't have Xixi's unique talent. They have to rely on props to tell fortunes, which takes a long time and has strict requirements on the surrounding environment.
This is the most suitable place for divination they have found so far.
After a long time, Wen Jiucheng finally opened his eyes.
He lowered his eyes and found that the needle on the compass turned several times and finally stopped in the northeast direction.
The three of them immediately used their Qinggong skills and flew towards the northeast.
Every time they passed a fork in the road, the three of them had to stop and continue to use the compass to make calculations.
As the sky gradually darkened and they still hadn't found any trace of Xixi, Chu Jian was so anxious that his eyes turned red.
"Why haven't you found Senior Sister yet? Is there anything wrong with her?"
Wen Jiucheng and Pei Qianhuo both looked solemn.
They were not afraid that Xixi would have an accident, they were just afraid that Xixi would find Kong Chan.
With Kong Chan's current strength, Xixi is definitely not his opponent.
…
Xiao Xixi was slapped away by Kong Chan and hit hard against the wall.
She slid down the wall and fell to the ground. A large amount of blood gushed out of her mouth and a burning pain came from her heart.
Kong Chan didn't use his full strength in that palm strike just now, but it was enough to seriously injure her.
Xiao Xixi held the sword in one hand and supported herself on the ground with the other, and climbed up with difficulty.
"How did your martial arts become so powerful?"
Kong Chan originally didn't know who this crazy woman who suddenly appeared in front of him was, but after the fight just now, he saw a familiar shadow in her moves.
That is a martial arts move of Xuanmen.
The fact that she can use Xuanmen’s martial arts shows that she is from Xuanmen.
As far as Kong Chan knows, there is only one female disciple among the Xuanmen disciples.
That was the former concubine Xiao, Xuanjizi's fourth disciple, Xiao Xixi.
Kong Chan didn’t know why Xiao Xixi’s face changed, but it had nothing to do with him. He didn’t care much about it, and he didn’t want to get to the bottom of it.
Looking at Xiao Xixi who was staggering in front of him, Kong Chan curled the corners of his mouth, his dark eyes filled with malice.
This made his handsome and feminine face suddenly become evil.
"This is all thanks to Xuanjizi. If he hadn't given me this level of power, I wouldn't be able to defeat you now."
Xiao Xixi was struck by lightning.
She didn't believe that her master would give all his skills to this bastard for nothing!
I remembered how skinny Master was before he died, and what Senior Brother said about Master’s having no inner strength left.
In an instant she understood everything.
She questioned with a trembling voice.
"You absorbed the master's power?"
Kong Chan admitted frankly, "Yes, your master is going to die soon anyway, so it would be a waste to keep his skills. It would be better to give it to me, which would also preserve the friendship between him and me as fellow disciples."
Xiao Xixi's eyes were red, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword kept shaking.
"brute!"
Kong Chan was still smiling: "Your master scolded me like this back then, and now you scold me like this too. It seems that you two are really close master and disciple. Even the insults you use are exactly the same."
At this time, Xiao Xixi was already covered in wounds, but Kong Chan only had a torn sleeve, and the rest of his body was intact.
The gap in strength between the two sides is huge.
Kong Chan felt more and more proud.
He walked slowly towards Xiao Xixi, looking her up and down with the eyes of a carnivore looking at its prey.
"Although your skills are not as profound as your master's, they are still decent. Once I absorb all your skills, I believe my martial arts will be able to reach a higher level."
Xiao Xixi was already seriously injured at this time, but she still gritted her teeth and swung her sword towards Kong Chan!
Kong Chan sneered: "To try to stop a chariot with a mantis arm is to overestimate one's own abilities."
He raised his hand to block it.
However, the next moment, Xiao Xixi suddenly changed the direction of the sword in his hand!
Before the sword tip could be used to chop, it was forcibly retracted.
Then she jumped out of the window.
How could Kong Chan let the fat meat slip away?
He tore off the sword hanging on the wall, jumped out of the window, and chased in the direction where Xiao Xixi fled.
The patrol team in the village was attracted by the noise here.
They asked Kong Chan what happened?
However, Kong Chan had no time to deal with them at this moment. He just said "I'm going to chase the assassin" and ran out of the village without looking back.
