A Clash of Gods - Chapter 167
Chapter 167 Look for Him
Chi Danmei laughed. “Can you find anybody else in the world whose disciple can defeat Bai within three moves except Beigong Liancheng?”
Yang Ning stared at Chi Danmei without a blink and expressed seriously, “Miss Chi, before we continue to talk, I will ask you several questions.”
“What do you want to ask?”
“Please tell me frankly. How do I look like?” Yang Ning asked solemnly.
Chi Danmei obviously had never expected that Yang Ning would ask such a question abruptly. She was a clever woman, so she knew that he must have asked it for a reason. She smiled charmingly and replied, “If I say that you are the most handsome man I have seen, you won’t believe it, but at least, you won’t make people feel disgusted.”
Yang Ning knew that Chi Danmei told the truth, yet he was still in a fret. Then he asked, “Do you think that I am smart?”
“You must be not stupid. Otherwise, when you found that you were captured and hung by me, you would curse me.” Chi Danmei chuckled. “You can be patient and pretend politeness and compliance in front of me, so you must be smart, but there are many people who are smarter than you.”
When somebody spoke straightforwardly, he would embarrass others.
Yang Ning sighed. “Why do you think that Beigong Liancheng would teach me swordsmanship? Since he is Sword God, he is like an immortal as you said. I was merely the heir of the Marquis of Honor not long ago. To be frank, there are not many other things in the capital of the Chu State, but there are a lot of heirs of noblemen. If you throw a stone on the street randomly, you can hit two heirs to death, so my identity was not uncommon. You have said that I am not the most handsome or the smartest. Why would the powerful Sword God think highly of me?”
He thought, “Chi Danmei has said that only Sword God Beigong Liancheng’s disciple can defeat Bai Yuhe within three moves. If she told the truth, did the pictures about swordsmanship I found in the old house belong to Beigong Liancheng?”
After Chi Danmei said only a few words, Yang Ning strongly felt how powerful Beigong Liancheng was.
A person was called God, and it was certainly not because he could really become an immortal, but it meant that he had made great achievements in something that the ordinary people couldn’t make.
Since Beigong Liancheng was called Sword God, it meant that his attainments in swordsmanship were extraordinary and all people in the world looked up at him.
Why did such a person show up in the old house of the Qi family?
Chi Danmei sighed gloomily. “I thought that you were just insincere, yet I didn’t expect that you could tell bare-faced lies randomly. You tell lies all the time, while your expression doesn’t change. If I didn’t know your background, I would be fooled by you.”
Her voice was still charming, but it was obvious that her tone was unfriendly.
Yang Ning frowned. “When did I cheat you? I can see that you are nice-looking, but why do you speak disorderly?”
“You said that I spoke disorderly?” Chi Danmei was upset and reached out her hand to pinch Yang Ning’s ear, saying angrily, “Beigong Liancheng is a member of your family, and your swordsmanship has been taught by him, yet you still pretend that you know nothing. Didn’t you tell lies?”
Chi Danmei pinched his ear with little strength, but it was humiliating as his ear was pinched by a woman. Yang Ning was furious and stated, “Fine. Since you know it, I won’t keep it from you. Right, my swordsmanship was taught by Sword God, and when I defeated Bai Yuhe that day, I just used the simplest move. Chi Danmei, I am not afraid of telling you. Sword God has taught me eighty-one moves of swordsmanship, and every move is invincible. If I used some more awesome moves, Bai Yuhe would suffer more than being injured.”
Chi Danmei asked in disbelief, “He taught you eighty-one moves?”
“Don’t you believe it?” Yang Ning sneered. “If you don’t believe me, put me down first. I will show every move to you.” He thought, “As long as she puts me down, I can use the Easy Travel to hide myself. Once I rush out of this cabin and alarm others, Chi Danmei won’t dare to take actions against me, the Marquis of Honor in public.”
He knew that although Chi Danmei was a sexy and tempting great beauty that any man would be aroused after seeing her, this woman was a disciple of the owner of Baiyun Island in the East Sea. Yang Ning had learnt from Zhenming that there were several freaks who shouldn’t exist in the world. They were called great masters and exceeded the limitation of human beings. Their martial skills were spiritualized, and the owner of Baiyun Island was one of them.
Since Chi Danmei was a disciple of the owner of Baiyun Island, her martial skills were naturally extraordinary. She had even defeated the eminent monk Master Jingkong in the Temple of Great Light that day. Although she was suspected of playing tricks, her martial skills were awesome indeed, and there was a great distance between Yang Ning and her in martial arts. If they fought against each other alone, he would die miserably, and his only advantage was the mysterious Easy Travel.
Chi Danmei giggled. “As long as I know that you really learnt swordsmanship from him, anything else is not important. You don’t need to show them to me.”
“Aha, you are just afraid that you are not my opponent as my swordsmanship is superb, right?” Yang Ning pretended to be complacent and tried to provoke her.
Unfortunately, Chi Danmei was not only beautiful but also crafty. She expressed in a sweet voice, “Marquis, don’t play tricks in front of me. Your tricks may be effective in front of the inexperienced girls, but to me, it won’t work at all.”
Yang Ning pretended to look ferocious and frightened her. “Chi Danmei, I advise you to leave earlier. Don’t say that I don’t remind you. Sword God comes and goes like a shadow, and I don’t know when he will come to see me. He has taught me swordsmanship, so you must know that he is close to me. If he sees that you treat me like this, what do you think you will end up with? He is Sword God, and he can take your life with his sword randomly. Aren’t you afraid?”
Even though Chi Danmei knew that Yang Ning bluffed, she still looked around. Seeing that she was so scared only after hearing this name, Yang Ning admired Sword God more.
Suddenly he heard Chi Danmei giggle and say in a sweet voice, “Since Beigong Liancheng is Sword God, if he uses his sword to kill people randomly, he won’t be worthy of the title of Sword God. Little Marquis, you said that Beigong Liancheng would come at any time. Is he in the capital city now?”
“What do you think?” Yang Ning pretended to be mysterious.
Chi Danmei reached out her hand and caressed Yang Ning’s cheek, asking, “Tell me. Where exactly is he now?”
Yang Ning felt that her palm was smooth and warm with fragrance. He rolled his eyes at her and didn’t answer.
He was confused. Duan Canghai must be guarding outside the cabin. With his alertness, Duan Canghai must have noticed as they had been talking in the cabin for a long time and Yang Ning purposely raised his voice sometimes, but that guy didn’t come in, and Yang Ning didn’t know if there was something wrong.
However, he was clear that Duan Canghai was much interior to Chi Danmei although he was excellent in martial arts.
“What’s wrong?” Seeing that Yang Ning didn’t speak, Chi Danmei chuckled. “Don’t you want to tell me?”
Yang Ning glanced at her and stated, “I tell you. I am weird. When I want to say something, even if you don’t ask, I will tell you. As for something that I don’t want to say, even if you try every means to torture and hurt me, I won’t tell you a single word. I wanted to be polite to you so we could sit down and have a good talk, but you are so impolite, so I have nothing to tell you. If you want to beat me, you can do it now. Use your whip or the candles, and just do it, even if you want to take my life.”
Chi Danmei laughed again, as pretty as flowers, with enchanting postures. “You are like a man now.” Her charming eyes rolled, and she suddenly jumped up, like a flame spurting. Then Yang Ning felt that his body sinking and saw that the rope was cut off. He was falling. With his arms and legs tied up, he was in the midair and couldn’t put forth strength. He was going to fall on the floor, while Chi Danmei fell next to him and slapped him on one side. Then he flew to the soft and fragrant big bed.
Chi Danmei controlled her strength and skill perfectly. After Yang Ning flew away, her hot body followed him like a shadow and flew over. When he fell on the bed, she was lying on the bed with her head rested on one hand, looking at him with a faint smile.
Yang Ning lay on the bed and finally felt relaxed.
“Marquis, I never plan to kill you.” Chi Danmei reached out one hand into Yang Ning’s clothes. She bit her moist red lip and rolled her eyes, asking in a seductive voice, “Do you think that it is nice?”
Yang Ning just felt that a smooth hand like jade was next to his chest and that a finger was drawing a circle on his chest. Although she did it gently, such a simple action made his whole body stiff.
He breathed rapidly and turned to Chi Danmei, to see that her beautiful face which could attract all people was before his eyes. The alluring eyes rolled, with her prominent nose, moist lips and a faint smile, she looked gorgeous.
“Where is Beigong Liancheng?” Chi Danmei blew Yang Ning’s ear with aroma of orchid and whispered, “Marquis, if you tell me, I can agree to something else.”
Yang Ning sighed. “Why do you want to see him?”
Chi Danmei responded, “It’s none of your business. As long as you tell me where he is now, I promise that I won’t hurt you, and I can…make you happy.” Her teeth were like snow and bit her red lip, as if she was going to make it bleed.
Yang Ning smiled bitterly. “Do you plan to use a honey-trap?”
Chi Danmei’s fingertip swept Yang Ning’s chest, and he trembled. She responded in a tempting voice, “I will use a honey-trap. Don’t you like it?”
Yang Ning stated, “Chi Danmei, you want to find Beigong Liancheng. Is this your purpose of coming to the Chu State? You went to the Temple of Great Light and want to get the “Scripture of Great Light”, which is only one of your purposes, and you want to inquire about Beigong Liancheng’s whereabouts. Everything is under the orders of the owner of Baiyun Island, if nothing else.” He smiled faintly. “I was surprised. Although the owner of Baiyun Island is the imperial master of the Eastern Qi State, it is said that he lives on Baiyun Island all year round and never asks about the state affairs. Why did he send two disciples to condole after the emperor of the Chu State passed away? It turns out that his purpose is to find Beigong Liancheng.”
Chi Danmei’s fascinating eyes were like threads, and she chuckled. “Marquis, you are smarter than I can imagine, but I am flirting with you, while you say something like a wet blanket. You are so dull.
