C548 Loyal Men

But the strange thing is, not long after the fight, Lee Hongji's combat strength began to decline rapidly. Basically, he could only parry the attack without being able to fight back. Later on, it was easy for him to escape in a sorry state, which was why he wasn't captured. He avoided even more awkwardness.

Seeing this, Zhang Jingxuan had a rough idea in his heart. Lee Hongji's strength had increased not because of his own improvement, but because of some external factors. For example, there were experts who helped him instill his strength, as well as some rare spiritual herbs. This allowed him to be reborn in a short period of time, but it was a pity that he couldn't hold on for long.

The reason why Song Ben won so easily was mainly because Lee Hongji's strength had dropped too much. However, the others didn't know the secret behind it. First, Cong Yepan's strength surpassed everyone else's, then Lee Hongji defeated him with a single punch. Then, he was completely defeated by the Japanese. In the end, he didn't even have the strength to fight back. Even if they had doubts, they no longer had the courage to challenge him. Furthermore, Matumoto Kiyu's strength was not bad, and he also had an ultimate move to hold the line. It would be very difficult for an ordinary person to challenge him.

At this point, Zhang Jingxuan could no longer stay out of this matter. Back then, Sun Shanglou's big brother Sun was a lone swordsman. How could he allow this Japanese warrior to show off in the Central Plains?

In fact, it was not difficult for Zhang Jingxuan to defeat Matumoto Kiyu. But firstly, he did not want to expose his true identity, and secondly, he wanted to take a look at the profound meaning of the East Ocean martial arts in this opponent. That was why he had spent so much time dealing with this opponent until the opponent used his ultimate skill. Only then did he completely defeat him. Stopping him from killing himself was a completely subconscious action. After all, the heavens had the virtue of living a good life.

Matumoto Kiyu thanked him and left. He had gained a lot from this trip, and in the future, he would be able to improve his martial arts and become a grandmaster in the East Ocean martial arts.

The Japanese had left, but the problem that he had left behind was still there.

Lee Hongji had obtained the position of the victor with great difficulty, but he had not given any important instructions yet. He was interrupted by the Japanese and was forced back to his original form. All of his painstaking efforts had turned into nothing, and his heart was bleeding. However, Lee Hongji was worthy of being called Lee Hongji. When he saw Matumoto Kiyu leave, he had a warm smile on his face. He strode forward and stretched out his hand. It seemed like he wanted to pat Zhang Jingxuan's shoulder or shoulder, but he held it back cleverly. Perhaps he knew that Zhang Jingxuan would hide from him and not let him touch him. That would be awkward.

His bright voice sounded, "Brother Mr. Zhang, I missed you so much after we parted in Xiangyang. Just now, I used up a lot of my stamina and almost ruined the reputation of the martial arts world in the Central Plains. Luckily, you're here, brother, so I killed him easily. I'm so happy to see you again, brother."

As he spoke, his tiger eyes seemed to contain tears. Their feelings were sincere and passionate. Anyone who heard them would feel that these two had long had such a deep friendship. No wonder Zhang Jingxuan was willing to sacrifice himself even though he had hidden his powerful martial arts. He had just helped Lee Hongji clear away the obstacles and claimed that he was injured and had given up the opportunity to compete for supremacy.

Before Zhang Jingxuan could reply, the nameless coachman who wanted to fight for Lee Hongji but was rejected interrupted and said, "Lee Shuai, you have suffered too much. Yesterday, you had traveled more than seven hundred miles just to hear that this night crying man, the Zhang brothers, had appeared in Wuxi City and were about to commit a crime. It was not a big deal to kill them with a punch, but in return, three horses had died. Even a man who was made of iron would be tired if he had just rushed back late! Not to mention..."

"Don't say that! I am so happy to see Jingxuan and his brother. Don't talk about those small matters that will ruin the scenery."

Lee Hongji seemed to be a little impatient as he shouted to stop. However, his subordinate seemed to be very excited as well. He was still unwilling to stop his words that were filled with excitement. As he spoke, he took out two heads and a few colorful handkerchief from a bag on the horse's back. It seemed that the heads belonged to the Zhang brothers that he had mentioned earlier.

"Furthermore, you have eliminated the Zhang brothers and angered their thirteen aunties who are swarming in red holes. On the way back, you launched an ambush. You don't want to fight with women, and you don't want to kill them. However, you were affected by their shameless hidden weapon, the Crimson Yin Water Sphere. In this situation, you only wanted to capture them, not kill them. You wanted to convert them into evil. I say, my lord, you are tired and wounded when you arrive here. Yet you refused to say a word. If you continue to be so foolish... How can you let us follow your brothers and watch on! Today, if I don't listen to orders, I will punish you for your crimes. However, if I don't say these words, no one will know! I, Elder Lin, will say them even if I have to risk my life! My Lord, it's a pity that I won't be able to lead your horse in the future!"

At the end of his words, the man's face carried a kind of heroic and sorrowful expression. His voice was choked with sobs. Everyone knew that he was loyal. Who would have thought that at the end of his speech, he would suddenly pull out a short blade and thrust it straight into his chest. Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht... Pcht...

The others were caught off guard. Who would have thought that there would be such a scene? Only Lee Hongji seemed to have moved his body, but he forcefully held himself back. It wasn't until the man fell into a pool of blood that everyone came back to their senses. This man looked ordinary, but he was actually such a loyal man.

Lee Hongji's eyes were a little blank, but he still said coldly, "I, Li, have never had a soldier who disobeys my orders. Elder Lin, he knows this. Since he disobeys my orders, he said. Then he can only withdraw from my Li Family Army. Thus, he is no longer my subordinate. "

When everyone heard Elder Lin's words, they knew that Lee Hongji had done so many things last night. One should know that the "Night Sobbing Man" Zhang Hentian and Zhang Chou Yue were a pair of evil thieves who had committed all kinds of crimes. Their methods were vicious. However, their martial arts were powerful and they would always commit crimes. They would always change places with one shot.

The people of the Jianghu had surrounded them many times, but they were always crafty enough to escape. Moreover, they had also cruelly taken revenge on the people of the martial arts world who had participated in the siege. In a period of time, they had become the nightmare of the martial arts world. It was a powerful weapon to scare the crying children.

Besides, they had also found a group of women with their behavior. Perhaps the money they robbed would be given to these women to squander. The thirteen women were like a swarm of bees in the red hole. Each of them had their own unique martial arts techniques. They were not to be trifled with. It was just that their evil deeds were not well known, so no one was willing to deal with these women. Lee Hongji had traveled hundreds of miles in one night to kill the Night Cry Lang and the Zhang brothers. He had subdued the Red Cave and done all these things that many people wanted but couldn't do. He did not claim any credit, and did not even want to say anything. It was no wonder that he had exhausted all his energy in the end. That was why he had lost to that Japanese.
