Chapter 2448: Capturing the Dragon Bearded Tiger Alive
Xuanyuan is actually the type who gets stronger when he is strong. His 'Holy King' can copy the opponent's skills. The greater the increase in the opponent's skills, the higher his improvement will naturally be.
However, this time the opponent Long Xuhu was just a junior God of War. He didn't have any powerful skills, so naturally he couldn't increase Xuanyuan's combat power too much.
Xuanyuan only copied Dragon Beard Tiger's Hammer God, but even so, Xuanyuan with a basic strength of 108 was far from being able to challenge Dragon Beard Tiger with 105.
After less than three rounds of fighting, Xuanyuan had the upper hand. After five rounds, the opponent was almost unable to fight back, and within ten rounds, he completely suppressed his opponent.
Longxuhu is a powerful general, and he uses heavy weapons like hammers, so his speed is relatively slow, and Xuanyuan's strength is speed.
In this less than ten rounds of fighting, Xuanyuan had many opportunities to kill with one blow and kill the dragon-bearded tiger under his horse, but he gave up all of them.
Xuanyuan would do this, naturally because of his talent, and he wanted to capture the dragon-bearded tiger alive.
For Xuanyuan, it is easy to defeat a war god, but it is not so easy to capture him alive. Even Xuanyuan has to use his hands and feet to do it.
Xuanyuan wanted to capture him alive, so he didn't kill him. Otherwise, the dragon-bearded tiger would have been dead long ago, and how could he have lasted until ten rounds.
Seeing that Xuanyuan was about to capture Longxuhu, he didn't expect that Lei Zhenzi would come out halfway.
If Longxuhu is at its peak, Lei Zhenzi with 107 base strength (+1) and him can still tie with 108 Xuanyuan.
But now Longxuhu has been injured by Xuanyuan. Once Longxuhu cannot hold on, Lei Zhenzi alone will obviously not be Xuanyuan's opponent, and defeat will only be a matter of time.
Xuanyuan obviously knew this, so when faced with the two men joining forces, he didn't panic at all, and fought steadily, constantly wearing down the will of Long Xiuhu, and then defeated him in one fell swoop.
After Longxuhu fell from his horse, if only one Lei Zhenzi was left, Xuanyuan would be sure to capture him alive.
He could see that although Lei Zhenzi was strong, he did not have rich combat experience. If he paid a price, he could still be captured alive.
Xuanyuan had regretted killing Wang Shi by mistake before, but now he finally met two powerful generals again, and Xuanyuan was reluctant to kill him again no matter what.
In this way, Xuanyuan's style of play changed from aggressive attack to defensive, focusing on stability.
Seeing this, Longxuhu secretly breathed a sigh of relief. After all, his purpose was just to hold Xuanyuan back, not to defeat him. When Li Mu's reinforcements arrived, he would win.
If the Tang army collapsed before Li Mu's arrival, it would be Jiang Shang's responsibility, not Long Xuhu's apprentice.
When the battle reached the fifteenth round, Xuanyuan also noticed that this young man named Lei Zhenzi was completely different from Long Xuhu.
It wasn't the difference in strength, but the way Lei Zhenzi looked at him was full of hatred, and every move and every move was extremely vicious, as if he had a grudge against him for killing his father.
Xuanyuan was puzzled, so he asked while fighting: "Hunter, do you have any grudge against me?"
"No grudges, no grudges." Lei Zhenzi said coldly.
"So you have a grudge against Da Qin?"
"Yes, my master Yun Zhongzi died tragically in Luoyang. Great Qin and I are sworn enemies."
Lei Zhenzi said with anger on his face, and the strength in his hand became a little heavier.
"Are you Yun Zhongzi's apprentice?"
Xuanyuan suddenly showed a clear expression. No wonder the other party hated Da Qin so much. He turned out to be Yun Zhongzi's disciple.
"Yun Zhongzi participated in the Luoyang coup. Even if he died, his death would be in vain. The Taoists didn't even dare to let go of anything, and they didn't even dare to collect Yun Zhongzi's body.
My emperor was merciful and gave Yun Zhongzi dignity and allowed him to rest in peace. How dare you, a junior like you, not be grateful and go against Da Qin? I think you are looking for death. "Xuanyuan snorted coldly.
After knowing that Lei Zhenzi was a disciple of Yun Zhongzi, he no longer had the idea of capturing Lei Zhenzi alive.
Comparing himself with his own feelings, if his master was killed, he would not give up revenge.
Of course, Xuanyuan has no master. His martial arts are inherited from his family and he mainly relies on self-taught.
Xuanyuan's words made Lei Zhenzi furious, but he didn't know how to refute it. After all, after his master's death, the Taoists did not dare to collect his body, and Da Qin finally buried him.
The Luoyang coup involved too much and too many people died.
Brothers Liu Xie, Liu Ping, the Imperial Party, and many great masters all died in this great change, and Yun Zhongzi was just one of them.
Coup d'état is not a child's play, it is a taboo for any force.
If you succeed, you will naturally jump over the dragon's gate. If you fail, your death will be in vain. After all, no one wants to be associated with political prisoners.
After the failure of the Luoyang coup, both the Taoist and Confucian families tacitly expelled the fallen grandmaster from their sect and claimed that this was their personal move to clear their relationship.
This incident also became a thorn in Lei Zhenzi's heart. His mentor died for Taoism, but he was abandoned by Taoism instead.
Xuanyuan's heart-breaking words directly broke Lei Zhenzi's defense. In anger, his offensive became more violent, and he stopped cooperating with the dragon bearded tiger at all.
"Junior brother, calm down, he is deliberately irritating you."
Longxuhu shouted anxiously, but Lei Zhenzi ignored him. Filled with hatred and anger, he just wanted to kill Xuanyuan to vent his anger.
Seeing this, Xuanyuan sneered in his heart and thought to himself: The second son is so easily angered, his character is too bad, and it is difficult for him to hold a big position.
Without Lei Zhenzi's cooperation, Longxuhu, who was already injured, would not be able to withstand Xuanyuan's several heavy blows.
Five rounds later, under another heavy blow from Xuanyuan, Longxuhu finally couldn't bear it any longer. The hammers in his hands were knocked away, and then Xuanyuan shot them away. He vomited blood crazily in the air, and fell to the ground. Fainted.
"Tie him up." Xuanyuan said coldly.
After hearing this, the cavalrymen floating around immediately stepped forward and tied up the unconscious Longxuhu.
"Senior Brother Long."
Seeing this urgency, Lei Zhenzi became much more rational, and subconsciously prepared to rescue him, but was stopped by Xuanyuan's shot.
"Boy, you think this general doesn't exist, right? Take care of yourself first." Xuanyuan said indifferently.
"Step aside."
Lei Zhenzi roared angrily, waved the wind and thunder golden stick, and attacked Xuanyuan with all his strength.
But his strength was weaker than Xuanyuan. Without the support of Long Beard Hu, he quickly fell into a disadvantage. Not to mention saving people, he could only watch Long Beard Hu being kidnapped.
After facing Xuanyuan alone, Lei Zhenzi realized the terror of Xuanyuan. It was an all-round power with no blind spots, so strong that he almost lost confidence.
"Just ninth on the general list is already so strong, so how strong will the top eight be?"
At this moment, Lei Zhenzi finally understood why Master Yuqing didn't let him go down the mountain to take revenge. He was indeed too weak.
