The constantly beating flame of the oil lamp reflected Xiong Ba's expressionless face, elongating his figure and casting it on the wall of the secret room.
After bending down in front of the portrait on the wall, Xiongba knelt down gently and put his head on the ground. After kneeling in front of the picture, he stood up again and sat on the futon.
It is hard to imagine that in the eyes of the world, the arrogant and domineering Xiongba who directly equals the sign would actually salute so sincerely to a painting, or to be precise, the person in the painting!
But for Xiong Ba, this is already commonplace, because he has been treating the person in the portrait as a master and apprentice for decades.
And when he has something on his mind, he will come to this secret room to think alone, and say things that only he can know here, because he has no one to say them to.
Some people who know the criticism of Ni Bodhisattva say that Xiongba believes too much in destiny, and this illusory thing is why he wants to use Kong Ci to turn Fengyun against him and get rid of Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.
However, only Xiong Ba himself knew that the reason why he planned Fengyun's rebellion was not because of Ni Bodhisattva's criticism, but because the time had come.
For so many years, Bu Jingyun has buried his hatred deep in his heart, always wanting to turn against him. Especially the last time, when he forced Bu Jingyun to kill members of the Huo family, the fire of hatred burned to the extreme. !
When he had Huojiazhuang destroyed, the seeds of hatred had already been sown.
Bu Jingyun was always going to rebel against him!
As for Nie Feng, the matter between Nie Feng's father Nie Renwang and mother Yan Ying was also a wall between him and Nie Feng. Even though Nie Feng is not clear about it now, it is always a hidden danger.
Therefore, after he saw Ni Bodhisattva's criticism, he immediately gave him an excuse to take action.
Of course, the most important thing is that today's Tianxiahui no longer needs Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun.
Now that the root of the disaster has been laid and he no longer needs the two of them, he naturally has to strike first.
It's just a pity that Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun are really easy to use, and they really cost him a lot of effort, which is a pity.
"Ha! No matter what! These two people must die!"
No one knows the talents of these two people better than Xiong Ba. If they are given time to grow, they will eventually become a serious problem...
A series of thoughts flashed through his mind. Xiongba raised his tough and domineering face, opened his eyes, and looked at the painting hanging on the wall. Then, those eyes were occupied by a look of disdain. A look of nostalgia suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He will never forget the man who stood on top of the Buddha and smiled at him. He will never forget the careful teaching and care he received from him.
Although the other party did not accept him as his disciple due to some reasons, he was the master recognized by Xiong Ba.
Even though he later became someone else's master, that man was the only master he recognized as Xiong Ba.
The reason is that the other party has no intentions towards him, and it is because the other party has given him the power to control his own destiny. This is the most precious thing in this world of intrigue and profit-seeking.
It's a pity that for so many years, even with the current power of Tianxiahui, he has not received any news from the other party.
"Master, are you really a god?"
With a murmur, Xiong Ba fell silent again.
After a while, Xiong Ba sighed, stood up and walked out of this secret room that only he knew about.
A few days later…
"Xiong Ba! Come out and die!"
With murderous intent all over his body, Bu Jingyun was like a mad wolf, holding a peerless sword, and swept away the Tianxiahui gang in front of him with one sword. When a piece of blood was shed, he walked through the blood curtain with his whole body. With shocking murderous intent, he rushed in directly.
Compared to Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng looked much more chic. With the use of Fengshen's legs, his whole body turned into an ethereal pale white shadow. Occasionally, he swept out a sword light. When killing the enemy, he used Aohan Six. The cold sword light produced by Jue has already frozen the enemy's splattered blood into ice cubes.
With one sword strike after another, the two men quickly broke through the defense line formed by the Tianxiahui gang and arrived in front of the Tianxiahui's main hall.
Xiong Ba, on the other hand, was already waiting for the two of them in front of the hall.
"Oh? Look who it is? Aren't these...my two good 'apprentices'?"
Xiongba stood with his hands behind his back, wearing a black robe that was not moving in the wind. With a playful smile, he looked at Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun without any sign of nervousness.
"Xiong Ba, today is the day you die!" Bu Jingyun shouted softly, without any intention of reminiscing with his former master. He swung his peerless sword and rushed forward with strong murderous intent.
Seeing this, Nie Feng felt a chill in his heart and hurriedly rushed towards Xiong Ba from another direction.
"Ha!" Xiong Ba smiled domineeringly and looked at the two people rushing towards him. He still maintained an indifferent expression. His palms were shaped like claws. Three-point return vitality quickly formed in his hands. He stretched out his arms to protect him and block him. After being attacked by the two men, Sansangui Yuanqi exploded, sending the two men flying from the steps in front of the hall.
"Haha!" Xiong Ba laughed heartily. His three-point return vitality was completely combined with the length of the 'Wind God Legs', the fierceness of the 'Cloud Pailing Palm', and the cold internal power of the 'Tian Shuang Fist'. Nie Feng's Fengshen Kick and Bu Jingyun's Cloud Expelling Palm have a strong restraining effect.
But now, the two people who were responsible for the martial arts he taught wanted to use the martial arts he taught to kill him. It was simply a delusion.
Looking at the two people who were knocked away, Xiong Ba glanced far away, thinking that the Twelve Evils of Tianchi and Duan Lang were out of his sight, and a cold murderous intention filled his heart.
He could guess what the other party was paying attention to without even thinking about it.
"You want the snipe and the clam to fight, and the fisherman will benefit? Oh, when I deal with these two people, I will kill you one by one!"
With a cold snort in his heart, he used Fengshen's legs, and the hero turned into a black figure, with terrifying pressure, like a black cloud, directly chasing Bu Jingyun who landed on the ground, punched out, and the frost air stretched out, in After leaving a transparent line of ice in the sky, it fell towards Bu Jingyun.
Bu Jingyun's expression changed, and he raised the peerless sword in his hand. He used the Huo family's sword skills and turned them into sword energy to meet the domineering Tianshuang Fist.
He was not an idiot. In several battles, he had noticed that his cloud-dispelling palm was restrained by Xiong Ba's martial arts, so he immediately used the Huo family swordsmanship passed down to him by his stepfather Huo Butian when he was young. Respond to the enemy.
Only by using the Huo family's swordsmanship to deal with Xiong Ba can the suffocation in his chest be relieved.
Nie Feng on the other side also did not use the Fengshen Legs to attack, but only used the movement skills in the Fengshen Legs to move, and then used the Snow Drinking Knife in his hand to fight with the Six Aohan Jue.
"Not stupid!"
Seeing the two people using other martial arts to deal with him, Xiongba thought to himself, stepped back, avoided the two people's attacks, and shouted softly: "Three points to return to the vitality!".
