Chapter 273 Unworthy of the Name
“So, do you want to leave after killing others?”
“Bloke, you just hit seriously the sharpshooter first, Xia Jingwei who ranked the ninth on the Heaven Ranking List. And then you killed Duan Lingfeng, who was also known as Terrorblade and ranked the eighth on the Heaven Ranking List. Are you challenging the famous guys on the Heaven Ranking List disdainfully?”
Before Liu Feng could take a few steps, two people appeared behind him at the same time.
Although the two men were ordinarily dressed, their pneumas were so long and dense. Besides, they had a weapon in their hands severally.
The young man on the left held a Dragon Spring Sword, and another young man on the right held a pair of cudgels.
“Heaven Ranking List? So, you are also masters on the list, right?” Liu Feng turned back and looked at them calmly.
“I rank the seventh on the Heaven Ranking List.” The young man holding the sword introduced himself. “My name is Lai Changyou. They call me Blade Master.”
“I rank the sixth on the list. I’m Hu Youyi, King of Cudgels.” The young man holding a pair of cudgels said with pride.
Liu Feng said with a smile, “The top ten experts on the list must be some masters with integrity, right? But I don’t think so. You serve for some big families like dogs, don’t you?”
“Bullsh*t !” Hu Youyi, the King of Cudgels, said angrily, “The top ten people on the list are all experts in the martial arts world. We have our own career. How could we serve for big families like dogs?”
Hu Youyi seemed to be very furious while Lai Changyou squinted his eyes with a glint of cold light flashing in the eyes.
Liu Feng sneered and said, “Don’t deny that. You behave like loyal dogs. If not, why do you come here to make trouble for me? Aren’t you nosy buggers? You said that I shouldn’t kill. Why don’t you ask me the reason why I killed Duan Lingfeng?”
Hu Youyi’s chest undulated rapidly. He lifted the cudgels and held one in each hand. Then he said loudly, “I came here to eradicate you, a scum of the martial arts world. You dared to kill some experts in the martial arts world arbitrarily. You even claimed to kill all the masters on Heaven Ranking List. A crazy man! You court death!”
“I killed experts in the martial arts world arbitrarily? And I claimed to kill all the masters on the list?”
Liu Feng sneered and said, “You look like an idiot. Who told you that?”
Hu Youyi pointed at Lai Changyou beside him. “Changyou, you told me that, right?”
“Of course. This is what Lu told me... Ah... This is what everyone was told on this land. Don’t talk nonsense with him. Let’s do it quickly.” Lai Changyou manifested a murderous look. He drew his sword and rushed towards Liu Feng.
In the darkness, cool light flashed on Lai Changyou’s Dragon Spring Sword. The tip of the sword was slanted upward and aimed at Liu Feng’s throat at a very tricky angle.
Humph!
Liu Feng snorted. He moved crosswise with light steps and turned his left hand athwartships to grab his opponent’s wrist at the same time.
Lai Changyou suddenly moved backward. He swung the sword in his hand, trying to cut off Liu Feng’s left hand.
However, Liu Feng didn’t want to stop at all. He even stretched out his fingers in a shape which looked like pinching a flower and directly grabbed the sword of Lai Changyou.
“You...”At this moment, Lai Changyou felt that he couldn’t take back his Dragon Spring Sword.
“You rank 7th on the list. Really? You should not have such bad kung fu.” Liu Feng was still grabbing the sword with his left hand and did not move at all. He shook his head and said, “The skill of your sword is very expertly, but your strength is too weak. You have just reached the level of force dispersing recently, right? Why are you on the Heaven Ranking List with your weak strength? You’re not even eligible.”
“You, you just know nothing. I am from the Family of Lai. I...”
Bang!
Before Lai Changyou could finish his sentence, Liu Feng kicked him in the stomach. Lai Changyou was kicked out four or five meters away and then laid flat on the ground.
“Another piece of rubbish relying on the family background to get promoted.”
Liu Feng said in a very disdainful tone, “The martial arts world of Celestial Empire established Heaven Ranking List, following the example of Hidden Dragon Duel. It ought to be the most authoritative list reflecting the strength of masters in the younger generation. What a pity.”
“F*ck !”
Lai Changyou clutched his stomach with both hands. Then he knelt up and shouted at Hu Youyi on the side. “Hu Youyi, why are you just watching on the side? Why didn’t you join the fight with me and kill him just now?”
Humph!
Hu Youyi snorted heavily again. “We are all masters on the list and prefer to have an one-on-one fight. The mass brawl is not necessary. What a shame!”
Hearing that, Lai Changyou flew into a rage.
Hu Youyi continued to say, “The original ranking of Heaven Ranking List was based on the quinquennial duel. However, it is inevitable that the duel will bring death and injury later. And it is contrary to the modern laws. Gradually, Heaven Ranking List is made, according to the assessment of senior experts in the martial arts world. Some people said before that your strength didn’t match with your position at all. I just doubted that. Look at what you just did today! Alas!”
Another sigh showed Hu Youyi’s extreme disappointment.
Lai Changyou’s eyes popped out at this time and his facial features were twisted. He clasped his hands on the ground and struggled up on his elbows with his body trembling. “Fine. It doesn’t matter if I lose. Since you are so strong, kill him if you can!”
Humph!
Hu Youyi snorted again to show his contempt. And then he looked at Liu Feng. “He’s not worthy of the title of Blade Master. He does not even have the strength to be on the Heaven Ranking List. And you...”
Liu Feng smiled and looked at Hu Youyi, waiting for his words.
“And you, you have the strength to be the top ten people on the list absolutely. Let’s have a fair duel. If you win, I will not stop you. If not, I must revenge for Duan Lingfeng.”Hu Youyi said.
Liu Feng shook his head slightly. “You are a real expert of martial arts. If you want to have a duel, I will join you. But there’s one thing that must be made clear. I killed Duan Lingfeng because he served for Lan Tingyu and Peng’s Family. They instructed him to kill me. He deserved it.”
Um?
Hu Youyi frowned. He seemed to be surprised at what Liu Feng just said.
Liu Feng added, “That’s also why I hit Xia Jingwei seriously. If you still doubt that and have the contact information of Xia Jingwei, you can call him to verify.”
A surprised look emerged on the face of Hu Youyi.
Liu Feng continued to say, “What about you? I said that you served for some big families like dogs, and you were pissed off. But let me ask you. Why did you and Lai Changyou appear here suddenly? Don’t tell me that it’s a coincidence.”
“We are coming for you especially because...”
Hu Youyi looked at Lai Changyou, and then he sighed. “Because he told me that you would kill everyone on the list. You’ve also injured or killed the top ten masters on the list arbitrarily. He said that you dared to this in the capital unscrupulously. If we leave you alone, you’ll do harm to our society in the future.”
“Oh! You were set up by them and became his jackals for no reason at all.”
Liu Feng smiled and said meaningfully, “Let’s have a duel. Whatever the result is, I hope that a fair conclusion of this thing can be reached in the martial arts world. Don’t let some conscienceless scums take advantage of the experts of Celestial Empire to harm our society and serve for some so-call big families to do something chilling.”
“Okay!”
Hu Youyi agreed, and then he rushed at Liu Feng, swinging his cudgels.
Facing this respectable opponent, Liu Feng did not want to kill him. So, he didn’t use his weapon.
He moved with Tai Ji Eight Diagrams Step and shuttled through the shadows of sticks agilely in Flying Dragon Way. He also fought back now and again with his tricky and fast fists and kicks.
“Your kung fu deserves the title. You rank sixth on the Heaven Ranking List, right? Actually, you have the topmost kung fu among experts of force dispersing.”
Liu Feng commented while he was fighting. “Especially, you can really put this pair of cudgels to good use, which is lethal. According to the weapon list of Celestial Empire, the king of short weapons is knife while spear ranks the first place among long weapons. And cudgels rank the second place among short weapons. They are also thought to be one of the most practical weapons. You use cudgels... But you stick to the convention too much when you use your cudgels to fight. Besides, you lack a trace of spirituality.”
Hu Youyi listened to Liu Feng’s comments. He was not irritated and swung his cudgels much faster and faster. The violent wind echoed continuously in the air with a whoosh.
“Your pneuma is dense and long. You also have good physical stamina. It seems that you are an experienced master.”
“Unfortunately, you rarely experience life-and-death combats, don’t you? You are brave enough, but you lack the consciousness of fighting.”
The two people fought for more than five minutes. But Liu Feng didn’t stop talking.
Lai Changyou was watching the duel on the side. His facial expression changed quickly. He ranked the seventh on the Heaven Ranking List. But It seemed that he was not strong enough to match with his title when he fought with Liu Feng today. Now he watched Liu Feng and Hu Youyi fight with each other and became even more shocked.
“Why? Why is Liu Feng so strong?” Lai Changyou cursed and roared deep in his heart. If Liu Feng survived in this duel, he would harm Lai Changyou. And Lai Changyou would lose his reputation because he wasn’t eligible for his title.
No, not just Liu Feng would do harm to him. If Hu Youyi was still alive, Lai Changyou would also lose his reputation. His future would be grim and hopeless.
Lai Changyou’s eyes became darker and darker. He reached out behind his back...
“I quit.”
Ten minutes later, Hu Youyi suddenly stepped back. He held two cudgels in one hand and shouted, “I admit that you’re stronger. There’s no point in continuing the fight.”
“You are very nice. At least, you have some self-knowledge. To be honest, Li Zepeng, who ranks the tenth on the list, is stronger than you, the sixth on the list.” Liu Feng said.
Whoosh!
Hu Youyi took another deep breath. “There’s little difference between the sixth and the tenth on the list. In fact, this is evaluated by some predecessors of the martial arts world. So, the ranking doesn’t necessarily represent the real power. You said that Old Li was stronger than me. I don’t deny that, either.”
“And then?” Liu Feng asked with a smile on his face.
“Nothing. I can’t beat down you. I’m leaving now. In addition, I’ll talk to the sharpshooter, Xia Jingwei to verify about this thing. If you are telling the truth, I will let others know the true situation.” After saying these words, Hu Youyi turned back and left.
“You can’t leave here alive today. Don’t go away.”
At this moment, Lai Changyou on the side was suddenly infuriated and rushed towards them with a pistol in his hand. He pointed at Hu Youyi with the dark muzzle.
Bang!
Suddenly, the gunfire filled the quiet night with terror. Lai Changyou did not hesitate when he pulled the trigger. Obviously, it was premeditated, and he wanted to kill them.
At such a critical moment, Hu Youyi did not wait for death at all. He moved to another side to dodge the bullet at this critical moment, but he was still shot in his right leg.
A line of blood burst out from his leg. Hu Youyi, King of Cudgels, stepped back, trembling all over his body. His face was as pale as the paper because of the pain. “Lai Changyou, you’re..., so shameless!”
“Shameless? Once you’re dead, no one will know it.”
Lai Changyou turned his pistol to point at Liu Feng.
Bang!
Another gunshot broke the silence. When the bullet popped up, a terrible glimmer flashed in the night.
However, it was impossible to hurt Liu Feng with a pistol. After all, he survived under hundreds of hails of bullets. He was the former Heavenly Sword and Yama, the Big Boss of the western underground world.
At the moment when Lai Changyou pulled the trigger, Liu Feng already made a move to dodge the bullet.
Liu Feng even swung his right hand. The moment a bullet popped out, a flash of silver light and the fire of the bullet appeared at the same time.
Puffed!
And then, Lai Changyou’s body was suddenly stiffened. A round bead of blood appeared between his eyebrows.
