Chapter 175: Krypton Gold Boss'?
"Qi Tongwei?" The big man stroked his beard, pondered for a moment, and suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I remember now! You are the 'Krypton Gold Boss' who defeated the 'Sword God' Dugu Qiubai at the 'Cloud Top Sword Contest'?!"
Qi Tongwei was stunned. Who was this big man? How did he know what happened in the game?
"You...you got the wrong person?" Qi Tongwei asked tentatively.
The big man chuckled and said, "How could I be wrong? Why don't you ask me how I got the nickname 'Iron Abacus'? There is nothing I don't know about anyone I see!"
Qi Tongwei was shocked. This big guy actually has such ability?
"You...what do you want to do?" Qi Tongwei looked at the big man warily, feeling a little uneasiness in his heart.
Seeing Qi Tongwei's nervous face, the big man burst into laughter and said, "Don't worry, kid, I'm not a bad person. Although I, 'Iron Abacus', love money, I love making friends even more! Since you are the 'Krypton Gold Boss', then we are friends!"
Qi Tongwei complained in his heart, who is your friend?
"What...what do you want?" Qi Tongwei asked.
"Not that great. I see that you have a unique bone structure and are a good material for practicing martial arts. Why don't you become my disciple and I will teach you some unique martial arts?" the big man said seriously.
"Unparalleled martial arts?" Qi Tongwei's heart moved. Could it be that this big man is really a hidden master?
"How is it? How do you think about it?" Seeing that Qi Tongwei was somewhat interested, the big man struck while the iron was hot and said, "I am the famous 'Iron Palm Floating on Water' in the martial arts world. My 'Iron Sand Palm' is invincible in the world. As long as you learn it, I guarantee that you will dominate the world and no one can defeat you!"
Qi Tongwei sneered in his heart, "Iron Palm Floating on Water"? Why does this name sound so familiar?
"You...you are not from the Beggars' Sect, are you?" Qi Tongwei asked tentatively.
"Beggars' Sect?" The big man was stunned, then flew into a rage, pointing at Qi Tongwei's nose and cursing, "Boy, how dare you insult me?! How can I, the dignified 'Iron Palm Water Floater', be those stinky beggars?!"
Qi Tongwei became even more certain that this big man was most likely a charlatan.
"Boy, do you want to be my disciple or not?!" The big man became a little impatient when he saw that Qi Tongwei had not spoken for a long time.
"No!" Qi Tongwei refused decisively.
"What?!" The big man was immediately furious, "Boy, you don't want to drink my toast?!"
After saying that, the big man swung the machete in his hand and chopped at Qi Tongwei.
Seeing this, Qi Tongwei hurriedly dodged, and the big man's machete missed and hit the ground hard, sparks flying everywhere.
"Boy, you dare to hide?!" the big man roared and swung his knife again.
Qi Tongwei had no choice but to dodge while saying, "Big brother, calm down, we have something to talk about..."
"Stop talking nonsense! I'm going to kill you today!" The big man roared angrily, wielding the machete in his hand faster and faster, with each move being ruthless and showing no mercy.
Qi Tongwei groaned in his heart. Although the big man's martial arts looked crude, he was extremely powerful and fast. He was no match for him with his bare hands.
"Damn it, I'm going to fight you!" Qi Tongwei was forced into a corner and didn't care about hiding his strength anymore. A gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he circulated his internal energy, ready to fight the big man head-on.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred!
A black shadow suddenly fell from the sky and rushed towards Qi Tongwei at lightning speed!
"Be careful!" The big man's face changed drastically when he saw this, and he hurriedly reminded.
However, it was too late...
The black shadow was as fast as lightning. Qi Tongwei had no time to react before it grabbed his neck and lifted him up high!
"Ah!" Qi Tongwei exclaimed, and suddenly felt difficulty breathing, and everything went dark in front of his eyes.
"Let him go!" The big man's eyes suddenly turned red with anger when he saw this. He roared angrily, waving his machete and rushed towards the black shadow.
However, the black shadow ignored him completely, just looked at him coldly, grabbed Qi Tongwei, turned around and jumped off the cliff...
"No!" The big man roared in despair, watching Qi Tongwei and the black shadow disappear into the bottomless abyss...
Qi Tongwei felt dizzy, and then he felt weightless. He tried to open his eyes, but found that his eyelids were as heavy as if they were filled with lead. After an unknown amount of time, the feeling of falling finally stopped, and he fell heavily on a pile of soft haystacks, uttering a cry of pain.
"Who's there!" a rough voice sounded, and then a tall figure appeared above Qi Tongwei, blocking the already dim light.
Qi Tongwei struggled to open his eyes. With the weak light, he saw the man in front of him clearly - he was a 8-foot-tall, broad-shouldered, strong man with a full beard and fierce eyes, like a tiger hunting. He held a shiny machete in his hand, and there was a trace of blood on the tip of the knife, which made people shudder.
"Who are you?" the big man asked sternly, his tone full of vigilance and hostility.
"I..." Qi Tongwei was about to open his mouth to explain, but suddenly found that he couldn't speak! He opened his mouth wide, trying to make a sound, but could only make meaningless syllables like "ah ah".
"What? Are you mute?" Seeing that Qi Tongwei couldn't speak for a long time, the big man frowned and looked Qi Tongwei up and down, his eyes full of suspicion and vigilance.
Qi Tongwei thought to himself that something was wrong. He tried hard to explain, but found that he could not control his body at all. He could only watch the big man approach step by step.
"Boy, I don't care who you are or where you come from, but now that you've landed in my territory, don't even think about leaving alive!" A trace of murderous intent flashed in the big man's eyes. He raised the machete in his hand high and chopped it down hard on Qi Tongwei's head.
"It's over!" Qi Tongwei closed his eyes in despair, waiting for death to come.
However, the expected pain did not come. He only heard a loud "clang" sound, as if something blocked the big man's machete.
Qi Tongwei opened his eyes carefully, and saw a woman in white clothes holding a long sword appeared in front of him. The woman's face was covered by a layer of white gauze, and her specific appearance could not be seen clearly, but just from the half exposed face and a pair of clear and bright eyes, it was clear that she must be a peerless beauty.
"Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?" The big man became furious when he saw his attack was blocked, and yelled at the woman in white.
"When I see injustice, I draw my sword to help. Who needs a reason?" The woman in white replied coldly, her voice clear and pleasant, like a solitary orchid in a valley.
"You are such a good man who sees injustice and helps others with his sword!" The big man laughed in anger, "Since you want to be a hero and save the damsel in distress, I will send you off first!"
After that, the big man swung the machete in his hand and launched a fierce attack on the woman in white. The woman in white was agile, like a dancing butterfly, and dodged the big man's attack lightly. The long sword in her hand stabbed out like a poisonous snake, going straight for the big man's throat.
The big man was shocked when he saw this, and quickly raised his knife to block. With a crisp "ding" sound, the machete in the big man's hand was unexpectedly knocked away by the sword of the woman in white!
"You..." The big man was horrified. He never thought that this seemingly weak woman in front of him actually possessed such terrifying strength!
"You are no match for me, retreat quickly and I can spare your life!" The woman in white said coldly, her tone full of unquestionable majesty.
Seeing this, the big man knew he was no match for his opponent and did not dare to fight anymore. He turned around and tried to escape.
"Want to leave? Not that easy!" The woman in white snorted coldly, and the long sword in her hand turned into a white light and shot towards the big man's back like lightning.
"Ah!" The big man screamed, blood gushed out, and he fell straight to the ground, obviously not going to survive.
After dealing with the big man, the woman in white turned around and slowly walked towards Qi Tongwei.
"You... who are you?" Qi Tongwei looked at the woman in white in front of him, his heart full of confusion and vigilance.
"My name is Yun Mengyao, what's yours?" The woman in white said lightly, her voice soft and gentle, like a spring breeze.
"I..." Qi Tongwei was about to speak, but suddenly he felt a sharp pain in his throat, a fishy and sweet taste surged into his heart, and a mouthful of blood spurted out!
"What's wrong with you?" Yun Mengyao's face changed drastically when she saw this. She hurried forward to support Qi Tongwei and asked with concern.
"I...I..." Qi Tongwei opened his mouth, but found that he could not utter a word. His consciousness began to gradually blur. Finally, his eyes went black and he fainted completely.
Upon seeing this, Yun Mengyao quickly reached out to feel Qi Tongwei's breath, and found that he was still alive. She breathed a sigh of relief, but then her brows knitted tightly together again, her eyes full of confusion and puzzlement: "Who is he? Why is he here? And, how could there be..."
Qi Tongwei felt like he was thrown into a boiling oil pan, his whole body was like being burned by fire, and the severe pain almost made him faint. He tried hard to open his eyes, but found that his eyelids were as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and he couldn't open them. In a daze, he heard a cold voice in his ear:
"Strange, I clearly sensed the aura of 'Yunding Palace', how could I be wrong?"
"Cloud Top Palace"? Isn't that the game he has been playing for ten years? Qi Tongwei was shocked. Did he travel through time and space to the game? But what about this severe pain?
"How can there be 'chaos energy' in this guy's body? Could it be..." The voice sounded again, with a hint of doubt and shock in its tone, "Impossible, wasn't the 'chaos energy' sealed along with the ancient demon god?"
