Chapter 158 Understanding the King of Huainan, Surpassing the King of Huainan
The plan was finalized, and Zheng Luoqi and the others immediately headed to the location of the Sword Shadow Sect.
The Sword Shadow Sect is located in Qizhou, which is the same area where Shen Jin stationed his troops. Coincidentally, it's the same old place.
Zheng Luoqi and her group immediately headed to Qizhou. They didn't rush to join the Sword Shadow Sect, as their purpose was too obvious and would arouse suspicion.
After careful consideration, the group decided to find a suitable place to stay in Qizhou and settle down temporarily. After all, they had risen to fame in the martial arts world recently, and Dai Rong's many female confidantes would certainly not let the matter rest after hearing the news of Dai Rong's death.
Therefore, in the near future, there will be a constant stream of people coming to cause trouble.
However, for Zheng Luoqi, this may well be an excellent opportunity.
This is a perfect opportunity to demonstrate the strength of the Five Elements Heroes to the martial arts world, proving that they are not just empty names and that killing Dai Rong was not merely a lucky fluke.
In this way, the Five Elements Heroes' status in the martial arts world will naturally no longer remain as a rising star.
The higher one's position, the easier it is to come into contact with those major sects. Some people hate you while others like you. In the martial arts world, the strong are respected, which will naturally attract many martial arts practitioners who want to befriend you.
But Dai Rong has only just died, so how could his confidantes let Zheng Luoqi and the others off so easily?
Sure enough, on the first night Zheng Luoqi and his group stayed in Qizhou, quite a few people came to cause trouble.
The noise and fighting continued throughout the night, keeping Zheng Luoqi and the others awake.
They had to be on high alert, ready to fight at any moment, and as a result, they spent the whole night sparring with different martial arts figures.
What's even more infuriating is that many martial arts figures are merely there to test Zheng Luoqi and his group's strength.
Those martial arts figures exchanged a few blows with Zheng Luoqi and his group, and when they sensed the situation was unfavorable, they quickly slipped away and made their escape.
This went on and on, driving Zheng Luoqi and the others to the brink of madness, as if they were caught in an endless war of attrition.
Zheng Luoqi reasonably suspected that those martial arts figures wanted to exhaust the five of them through a series of battles.
Zheng Luoqi and the others have been fighting repeatedly with different martial arts figures these past few days. They're all numb and have had to take turns resting.
Each time, one person would take a short break, while the other four would take turns standing guard and keeping watch, not daring to relax in the slightest.
And so, they fought for five days and five nights against those complete strangers from the martial arts world! They didn't eat well, and they didn't sleep well either.
By the end, Zheng Luoqi and his team were exhausted, and they had lost count of how many people they had fought.
As the fight progressed, Zheng Luoqi became increasingly enraged, killing each and every one of them who came at her, giving them no chance to escape and preventing them from returning to cause trouble.
At first, Zheng Luoqi saw that they had no intention of killing and were just trying to test their strength, so she did not choose to continue chasing after them after they ran away.
Zheng Luoqi never expected that they would keep jumping around like this for two or three days. It was so annoying that she was going to die. Afterwards, Zheng Luoqi regretted it even more. She regretted not chasing after them and killing those who were running away. It was because of those people who kept testing them.
Therefore, Zheng Luoqi is no longer willing to give them a chance to escape. She is in a state of bloodlust, killing anyone who comes and ensuring that no one can escape.
Zheng Luoqi now understands why the Prince of Huainan collapsed back then. These people bother him every day, who can stand it!
After five days and five nights of fighting, they were finally able to rest properly once again, as no one bothered them anymore.
After spending time wandering the martial arts world, Zheng Luoqi realized that her martial arts skills really needed improvement, in case she had to fight against those martial arts masters one day.
Zheng Luoqi felt that she might not necessarily have the upper hand, after all, she knew too little about the affairs of the martial arts world.
So the only thing we can do now is to continue to improve our martial arts skills, because in the end, the martial arts world still respects the strong.
Without the harassment of those annoying martial arts figures, Zheng Luoqi became even more diligent. Before, she had official duties to attend to and didn't have much time to practice martial arts, but now she has a lot of free time.
So Zheng Luoqi goes to practice martial arts almost every day at the crack of dawn. First, he goes for a run, then he practices weightlifting and archery, and then he repeatedly practices those martial arts moves. He reviews the moves he made when fighting with those martial arts people from time to time, and steals the useful moves from them.
Zheng Luoqi not only practiced herself, but also demanded that Boyu and the others not slack off. Zheng Luoqi directly gave the order that anyone who dared to slack off when doing things should just draw their sword and commit suicide!
After this series of battles against martial arts figures, the name of the Five Elements Heroes has become thoroughly famous in the martial arts world.
For a time, no one dared to underestimate Zheng Luoqi and his group anymore. They earned their place in the martial arts world through their own strength.
...............
After a period of reflection, Zheng Luoqi and his group suddenly received an invitation from the Sword Shadow Sect one day.
Even before Zheng Luoqi came to Qizhou, she had already learned that after Guan Zhijin, the heir of the Sword Shadow Sect, died, they were preparing to find a better successor.
However, their sect's martial arts manuals have always been passed down to men, not women. But the current sect leader only has one daughter, so he plans to find a son-in-law to marry into the family and then pass on the Sword Shadow Sect's martial arts techniques.
So they planned to hold a martial arts contest to find a husband for the sect leader's daughter. However, since Sword Shadow Sect is a large sect, it is impossible for just anyone to participate. They will only invite some well-known and famous people in the martial arts world.
So, all the things Zheng Luoqi and the others did were worth it; they finally decided to take the initiative to reach out to them.
Zheng Luoqi guessed that the Sword Shadow Sect leader was just curious about them and didn't necessarily want them to participate in the martial arts contest for marriage. Perhaps he just wanted to take this opportunity to see these rising stars in the martial arts world.
Zheng Luoqi and the others received the invitation, a strange smile appeared on their faces, and then they put the invitation away.
"Let's go!" Zheng Luoqi smirked and led Bo Yu and the others toward the Sword Shadow Sect.
