Chapter 36 - Wan Qing Captured

"Are you questioning This King's strength? How bold. " Duan Zhengchun said in a slightly angry tone.

Ling Xiao said in an indifferent manner: "As people of the Jianghu, I am indeed not too familiar with the rules of you nobles, but this is not the reason why the Prince Duan is looking down on us."

"Good, good!" Back then this king has also scolded the Jianghu, would I still be afraid of a young man like you? " Duan Zhengchun sneered.

"Then Your Highness means that you want to spar?" Ling Xiao also squinted his eyes, and said without the slightest fear.

Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun couldn't help but burst out laughing. He pointed at Ling Xiao's nose and said, "To be honest, this duke truly admires your courage."

"Sect Master Ling!" Seeing that, Dao Baifeng who was at the side wanted to go up and advise them against it.

However, Ling Xiao waved his hand and said: "It's fine, I just hope that Prince Duan can follow the rules. If I win in a while, you cannot act shamelessly again."

"Ridiculous, This King will lose to you, a person I have never heard of before? If not for Princess protecting you today, you would have been taught a ruthless lesson by this duke! Even if you saved Yu Er, you can't be this rude to the Dali's Imperial Family! " Duan Zhengchun was excited, obviously angry.

Ling Xiao cupped his hands: "Since that's the case, then let's ask Prince Duan to take action. I wonder what we should do later?"

"Seeing how arrogant you are, you should be a person who isn't afraid of death. How about you leave life and death to the heavens?" Duan Zhengchun could not bear to see Ling Xiao's performance any longer, so he said with a sneer.

Hearing that, Ling Xiao said indifferently: "Alright, I didn't expect that Prince Duan would be such a straightforward person. Today, I have the Princess as a witness, so I can display my punches and kicks without worry."

Princess never thought that things would develop to such a state. She was still a woman after all, and did not want to see any unhappy things, so he wanted to go and stop them. However, Duan Zhengchun had been angered for a long time, and he finally could not take action.

Because what Ling Xiao had just said seemed to be mocking Duan Zhengchun for being unable to beat him.

Sensing the incoming fierce fist wind, Ling Xiao knew that Duan Zhengchun had been ruthless, and since that was the case, Ling Xiao would not be polite.

Even if you are a Southern King of Dali royal family, Ling Xiao is not afraid in the slightest.

"Bam!" With a sound, Ling Xiao used microstep, and easily dodged Duan Zhengchun's attack. At the same time, he ruthlessly punched Duan Zhengchun's fist, and produced an extremely loud and clear sound of impact.

As the spectator, Dao Baifeng could be said to be extremely clear. She clearly saw Ling Xiao dodge Duan Zhengchun's attack, and also took the initiative to punch out, colliding against Duan Zhengchun's fist.

As Duan Zhengchun's wife, Dao Baifeng knew clearly how high Duan Zhengchun's martial arts were. Furthermore, it could be seen that he had used his full strength in that punch just now.

It was one thing for Ling Xiao to dodge such a terrifying punch, but he actually seized the opportunity to strike him?

But what surprised Dao Baifeng was not only that, after the collision, Duan Zhengchun took a deep breath, his originally normal fist was actually trembling, as though he was enduring the pain.

On the other hand, Ling Xiao leisurely turned around with his hands behind his back and an indifferent expression on his face.

With such a huge difference in performance, it caused Dao Baifeng, who was originally worried about Ling Xiao, to start worrying about him. Even though the relationship between the couple wasn't good, it still existed and it wasn't enough for Dao Baifeng to care about Duan Zhengchun's life.

"Both of you stop, stop attacking!" Dao Baifeng shouted.

Ling Xiao stood in place without moving, and only faintly smiled.

Duan Zhengchun also had his hands behind his back, but his trembling hands had long betrayed him, so other than Dao Baifeng, there was no one else around.

The moment Dao Baifeng shouted for him to stop, Duan Zhengchun actually heaved a sigh of relief, because as the person who had directly clashed with Ling Xiao, he immediately experienced just how powerful Ling Xiao was.

Maybe I am young and impulsive, but if I am looked down upon for no reason, no matter who it is, I will still be angry. Ling Xiao said indifferently.

However, his words had already given Duan Zhengchun a way out, and that only depended on whether Duan Zhengchun was willing to accept it or not.

Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun took a deep breath and said: "Sect Master Ling is right, you are indeed looked down upon for no reason, and anyone would be angry at you. This is this king's wrong, but you are also angry because you saw Yu Er suffering."

"I admire the Prince Duan's love for her son." Ling Xiao cupped his hands and said.

Seeing this scene, Dao Baifeng finally heaved a sigh of relief, "Alright, the two of you should sit down first.

Ling Xiao unceremoniously sat down on his butt, but Duan Zhengchun pretended to be calm and walked back to his seat, everyone could see that Duan Zhengchun was struggling to endure, and it was likely that Ling Xiao's punch still had some energy left, and was completely absorbed into Duan Zhengchun's body.

"Prince Duan's body is not bad, to actually be able to receive a punch from me. Thinking back then, when the four evil people joined hands, they were still unable to gain any benefits from my hands." Ling Xiao said whether intentionally or unintentionally after taking a sip from his teacup.

But when these words reached Dao Baifeng and Duan Zhengchun's ears, they couldn't help but take a deep breath.

This meant that they were somewhat afraid of the Four Great Evildoers, but at this time, the unhappiness in Duan Zhengchun's heart that they felt from losing to Ling Xiao suddenly disappeared without a trace.

"Sect Master Ling, I heard Madam said that you have business here?" Duan Zhengchun asked Ling Xiao. As expected of the old Jianghu, he quickly organized his emotions.

Ling Xiao nodded: "Yes, for the matter of Master Xuan Bei's death."

Hearing this, Duan Zhengchun said seriously: "This king has also heard about this matter. Furthermore, this king has already sent people to investigate, but has yet to find anything useful."

"I have come this time because the grudge between the various nations will not become any more complicated because of this matter. I hope that Prince Duan can resolve this in time. If anything is amiss, please inform me as soon as possible." Ling Xiao replied.

Hearing that, Duan Zhengchun nodded his head, but just as he was about to say something, he saw a pigeon flying in.

Upon seeing this, Dao Baifeng curiously took off the slip of paper from the pigeon's foot and passed it to Duan Zhengchun.

After looking through it, Duan Zhengchun's face immediately became pale, and at the same time, endless anger welled up.

"What happened?" Dao Baifeng asked in confusion.

"That bastard Duan Yanqing actually captured Mu Wanqing!" Duan Zhengchun said as he gritted his teeth. He could tell that Mu Wanqing was very important to him.
