Chapter 278 Young Man on a White Horse Drunk in the Spring Breeze 53
The clouds parted, and the moon appeared.
Two figures reappeared in the sky.
A drop of blood fell from the sky.
"Are you done playing?"
Who really won this duel?
All eyes instantly focused on the two people who were slowly falling, trying to find out who the blood belonged to.
The two landed slowly.
Li Changsheng stood with his hands behind his back, his expression solemn.
"Master?" Xiao Ruofeng ran quickly towards the two of them. As he passed Li Changsheng, he called out softly. Seeing that there was no response, he pursed his lips slightly, turned around, and quickly ran to Xiao Ruojin: "Brother?"
Xiao Ruofeng looked his brother up and down to see if he was injured.
The drop of blood that just fell proves that someone between the two people must have been injured.
Everyone subconsciously turned their attention to Xiao Ruojin. After all, the impression that Li Changsheng was the number one in the world, powerful and invincible, had been deeply engraved in everyone's minds.
In their view, if anyone were to lose this duel, it would definitely be Xiao Ruojin.
Xiao Ruofeng frowned with worry, just about to say something.
"puff--"
Xiao Ruojin spat out a mouthful of blood, her face turning deathly pale instantly.
"Brother—" Xiao Ruofeng was shocked and quickly reached out to support him.
However, Xiao Ruojin pushed away Xiao Ruofeng's hand. Her chest heaved violently for a few moments, and her true energy circulated throughout her body. In just a few breaths, her pale face improved considerably.
So Mr. Li won this duel, and King Jingyu was injured?
Everyone understood, thinking to themselves: Mr. Li truly deserves to be called the best in the world.
However, Li Changsheng's solemn expression made Baili Luochen feel that something was amiss.
He stepped forward a few paces and called out softly, "Mr. Li?"
Li Changsheng remained standing silently, his face extremely grim.
Baili Luochen's heart skipped a beat, and just as he was about to speak again, Xiao Ruojin on the other end recovered.
Refusing Xiao Ruofeng's help, Xiao Ruojin stepped forward and stared intently at Li Changsheng: "Under the whole heaven, all land belongs to the king; on the shores of the earth, all people are subjects of the king. Li Changsheng, I am giving you a choice."
Everyone was shocked.
Is King Jingyu really that brave?
Having lost the duel, how dare you still speak so arrogantly and say such things to Mr. Li?
Is this insane?
Would Mr. Li kill him in a fit of anger?
Unexpectedly, Li Changsheng not only did not get angry, but instead struggled, and his face became even more unpleasant.
After a while, as if remembering something, he chuckled self-deprecatingly, shook his head, and said, "Indeed, the younger generation surpasses the older!"
Li Changsheng said with a wry smile, "I have never liked court intrigues, so I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Your Highness."
Even when Emperor Tianwu Xiao Yi was alive, he was unable to truly enter the court, so it is even more impossible now.
As expected, Xiao Ruojin was not disappointed.
"Alright, then so be it!"
Xiao Ruojin nodded, then said solemnly, "Li Changsheng, I order you to leave Beili immediately and go where you belong. From now on, without my decree, you are not allowed to set foot in Beili again."
The sound was like metal striking stone, resounding loudly.
Li Changsheng sighed, glanced at Xiao Ruofeng, then at Baili Dongjun in the carriage behind him, and finally looked up at the sky, seemingly lost in thought. He nodded, then turned and rode away on the wind.
Where he left, a broken folding fan quietly fell, the four characters "Spring Breeze of Success" on it already blurred.
"what?"
This discovery stunned everyone present.
It was clearly King Jingyu who was injured, so why was it Mr. Li who left in the end?
An unbelievable thought popped into everyone's mind.
Did King Jingyu win this duel?
wow——
Everyone was utterly shocked.
Li Changsheng, the number one martial artist in the world, has been defeated!
Li Changsheng actually lost!
"Master—"
Watching his master leave, Xiao Ruofeng felt a pang of sadness. It was true that Xiao Ruojin was the most important person in his heart, but Li Changsheng was equally important to him.
But now his brother has driven away his master, and he himself is powerless to do anything about it.
"Brother, why did you do this?"
"Don't be so sad. We'll meet again someday. After all—" Xiao Ruojin said calmly.
He was going to that place sooner or later.
Xiao Ruofeng was unaware of the second half of Xiao Ruojin's sentence. He thought to himself: Master is unwilling to participate in the court struggles. It's better for him to leave now.
As for today's ban...
With Master's abilities, where in the world can't I go?
Besides, if he pleads with his elder brother more often, the ban will be lifted.
Thinking about it this way made him feel much better.
After comforting himself, Xiao Ruofeng felt a little better, but he still couldn't help asking, "Brother, did you beat Master?"
Xiao Ruojin shook her head: "No."
"Then why...?"
"Because I almost killed him."
"Ok?"
Xiao Ruofeng was utterly shocked, and a huge wave of emotions surged within him.
Xiao Ruojin looked in the direction Li Changsheng had left and breathed a sigh of relief.
Li Changsheng is really powerful. In terms of cultivation alone, he is definitely no match for Li Changsheng.
But fortunately, his trump card for survival never disappoints him.
The power of thought is formless and colorless.
Back then, he was only at the Free and Unfettered Heaven Realm, yet he could come and go right under Xie Zhize's nose. Now that he has reached the Divine Travel Mystic Realm, he constantly draws upon the power of heaven and earth here to cultivate his mental power, and its power far surpasses what it used to be.
In his fight with Li Changsheng, although he was hit by Li Changsheng's palm, he took the opportunity to use his mental power to slash Li Changsheng's neck.
So that drop of blood belonged to Li Changsheng.
However, Li Changsheng was too powerful and reacted quickly. In the end, the telekinetic energy only managed to leave a shallow scratch on Li Changsheng's neck.
Li Changsheng did not know what this power was.
But if Xiao Ruojin could cut her own neck once, she could do it a second time.
Moreover, this power is invisible and colorless. During the duel between the two, when their true energy surged, he was unable to mount a strong defense.
So in the end, Li Changsheng stopped.
Xiao Ruojin, however, keenly sensed his thoughts and decisively and forcefully ordered Li Changsheng not to set foot in Beili again.
This may seem like a punishment for Li Changsheng, but in reality, it's a way to strike while the iron is hot and expel him from Beili.
He couldn't kill Li Changsheng, so this was all he could do.
Li Changsheng hesitated for a moment, considering whether or not to listen to Xiao Ruojin and leave Beili.
He thought of what Xiao Ruojin had just said.
He lived to be 180 years old and had seen through everything in the world. His only attachment was the few disciples he had taken in.
Xiao Ruojin is right, there is only one Li Changsheng in the world.
His disciples were all very talented, but few of them could reach his current level.
