The day he steps into the Celestial Realm will be the day Han Diaosi perishes.
Fahai's eyes were cold and sharp, his expression confident, and his entire being exuded an unquestionable Aura.
In the shadows, a Baiyi Sengren (White-Clothed Monk) sighed softly.
“Truly young and promising.”
“It seems there will be a big stir next.”
“This trip to Northern Liang was not in vain.”
Before everyone's eyes, the Human Cat, whose fierce reputation once shook the heavens, actually fled in panic! A single strike astonished the entire scene!
Inside the inn, everyone was stunned. Such an incredible event actually happened right before their eyes!
With just a string of prayer beads and the momentum of a single strike, he forced the Human Cat to flee in disarray!
The news spread rapidly.
The news of Fahai and Nangong Pu She joining forces to repel the Human Cat, severely injuring him with prayer beads and a single strike, shook the entire Jianghu!
The world was in an uproar, with discussions everywhere, all finding it hard to believe.
Previously, Fahai defeating a Celestial had already been shocking; now, he fought alongside his lover, severely injuring a Celestial of the Three Realms, and scaring away the notorious Human Cat.
Is this person truly still a Mortal Martial Artist?
The entire Jianghu was shaken by it.
“When Fahai fought Zhuge Zhengwo, he barely managed to win.”
“How long has it been, and he can actually force Han Shengxuan to such a defeated and fleeing state?”
“How strong is this Fahai, exactly?”
“That Human Cat Han Shengxuan!”
“One of the three Devil Heads of Li Yang, how many experts have died by his hands.”
“Yet he was repelled by Fahai and Nangong Pu She working together?”
“Heh—the strength of this man and woman is simply unfathomable!”
Li Yang's court and public were shaken. This Fahai is actually this powerful!
Facing Han Diaosi, not only was he unharmed, but he even forced the Human Cat to flee in disarray, desperately trying to save himself.
In their eyes, this was simply an unbelievable feat!
Since Xu Xiao pacified the Jianghu, Li Yang's Martial Forest had been in decline, the entire Jianghu like a broken waist, unable to straighten its back, all suppressed by the court to the point of being breathless.
What's more, that Human Cat Han Shengxuan is a top-tier expert, his Cultivation methods insidious and strange, ordinary Martial Artists wouldn't even dare to dream of contending with him. Yet Fahai accomplished something countless Jianghu people wouldn't even dare to dream of!
Not only did he defeat the formidable Human Cat, but he also dared to act against the high and mighty court, which was already a grave taboo for Li Yang!
He defeated the Human Cat, broke Li Yang's order, and openly disregarded Li Yang's laws.
Fahai is the first Jianghu figure since Xu Xiao to dare to act so boldly within Li Yang's borders.
Truly a rare madman!
Rules have always only applied to Mortals.
As for a Heaven-Defying person like Fahai, he is naturally not bound by them.
But this act undoubtedly slapped Li Yang hard in the face, how could the one sitting in Tai'an City just sit idly by?
That Monarch was ambitious and strategic, with the ambition to conquer the entire world.
If he couldn't even suppress the Jianghu, how could he talk about a thousand generations?
Fahai had already become a thorn in his side.
The Zhao Imperial Family's methods were ruthless, and the Great Ming Dynasty and Six Doors all had their ears and eyes.
The Four Great Arresters quickly learned of this.
It was already an unspoken understanding for various countries to send out spies to each other.
It was precisely because of these hidden lines that many secrets could quickly spread throughout the world.
“Fahai actually managed to injure Han Shengxuan! Excellent!”
Cold Blood shouted excitedly.
Tie Shou, however, looked at him with a bewildered and disbelieving expression.
“Why are you so happy?”
“That Fahai can severely injure the Human Cat, clearly his strength is even greater, and our hope for avenging Master becomes even more slim.”
“What is there to be happy about?”
Wuqing slowly shook her head: “Tie Shou, you are too short-sighted.”
“Fahai severely injuring Han Shengxuan is equivalent to tearing off the mask with Li Yang.”
“Li Yang most dislikes Jianghu Schools causing trouble, and the Zhao Emperor especially hates acts of violence that violate the law.”
“Nowadays, all the people of Jianghu bow down and are as respectful as if their lives depended on it.”
“Fahai severely injuring Han Shengxuan upon his arrival in Li Yang is clearly a harsh slap to Li Yang's face.”
“Li Yang will never let him go and will certainly punish him severely.”
“Even, this matter might even implicate Shaolin.”
Cold Blood was full of excitement: “This is a good opportunity!”
“The Li Yang Emperor is most intolerant of unruly Jianghu individuals.”
“Back then, he could order Xu Xiao to lead an army of 300,000 to pacify the Jianghu, and now he might not dare to send troops to besiege Shaolin.”
“Perhaps, we can use this to petition Your Majesty, asking Your Majesty to unite with Li Yang, jointly pressure Shaolin, and eradicate it in one fell swoop!”
“In this way, even if Shaolin shakes the Martial Forest and has a Legacy of a thousand years, it will be difficult to escape the catastrophe of collapse!”
“Jianghu Gangs, in the face of the Dynasty's great power, are ultimately insignificant!”
Great Sui.
Inside Cihang Jingzhai, Fan Qinghui's expression was shocked after reading the intelligence report.
Her face instantly became solemn.
She never expected that in such a short time, Fahai had grown to such a terrifying extent!
Even the Human Cat Han Shengxuan could only retreat in disarray under his hands! However, this might also be a good opportunity!
Fan Qinghui quickly perceived the conflict between Fahai and Li Yang.
If it could be manipulated and utilized, it might be able to turn the tide.
At present, Great Sui is in turmoil, beset by internal and external problems, and if not for Cihang Jingzhai's strenuous support, it would probably have perished long ago, completely annexed by the Tang Dynasty!
The neighboring Tang Dynasty's army was strong and vigorous, its Aura like a rainbow, eyeing Great Sui covetously, an existence that Fan Qinghui feared most. If an alliance could be formed with Li Yang to help them resist Fahai, in exchange for their support for Great Sui, the situation might still have room for maneuver.
Now, Great Tang is aggressive, its ambition clear; while Great Sui has suffered repeated defeats, its people are impoverished and its resources exhausted, almost on the verge of collapse. Only by introducing strong foreign aid can it possibly reverse the decline and preserve the nation!
Moreover, Fan Qinghui had always deeply detested Fahai.
In her eyes, this person was a heinous Demon Monk, guilty of countless crimes, and she wished to eradicate him as soon as possible. However, he was a Shaolin Disciple, and the entire Shaolin temple merely protected him, doing nothing, which was utterly disappointing!
Fan Qinghui hated Fahai to the core and was also dissatisfied with Shaolin's inaction.
After much deliberation, she decided to enter the palace to meet the Great Sui Emperor.
At the same time, Li Yang was in an uproar.
As expected, the entire court and public were utterly astonished! Han Diaosi's name intimidated the world, and countless experts had died by his hand. Everyone originally thought that when he made a move, it would be foolproof!
Unfortunately, an accident occurred this time.
He failed!
Not only did he fail to complete his mission, but he was also severely injured by the combined efforts of Fahai and Nangong Pu She!
This was the first time Han Diaosi had suffered a setback in all his past operations.
Who would have thought that Fahai would be so powerful?
When this intelligence report was sent to the Imperial Palace and presented before the Emperor's desk, all the civil and military officials were stunned and paled.
This Fahai, could he actually be so formidable?
In the hall, Prime Minister Zhang Julu, who was at the head of all the officials, frowned deeply and pondered silently.
Fahai…
In the imperial court, there was a buzz of discussion and constant low whispers.
The Li Yang Emperor, sitting on the Dragon Throne, had a gloomy face and was seething with anger.
Han Shengxuan personally made a move, yet still lost?
If it were other famous experts in the world, then so be it.
But that Fahai, just a mere Great Grandmaster, plus Nangong Pu She, only two people.
Two Great Grandmasters, could they actually force Han Shengxuan to retreat?
Good!
Raising soldiers for a thousand days, using them for a moment, they are simply useless!
