26: A martial arts master with profound knowledge! Qi Longhu!

After a pause, Chen Heng smiled.

"I don't believe there's such a thing as a free lunch in this world."

"Correct, there truly isn't." Qi Longhu stood up and took off his shirt.

Seeing this, Chen Heng's scalp tingled.

"I'm warning you, I don't have any homosexual tendencies."

"If you're looking for that kind of fun, find someone else!"

"What are you talking about?" Qi Longhu frowned, looking puzzled.

"I merely want to test your mettle, what 'that kind of fun'?"

"That's good then..." Chen Heng breathed a sigh of relief.

"Kid Chen Heng, you'd better use your full strength against me."

Qi Longhu cleared a space and stood with his arms crossed, watching Chen Heng.

"That depends on how strong Hall Master Qi is." Chen Heng also stood up, taking off his long robe to reveal a short fighting tunic.

"Hahaha, I am Qi Longhu, a Tongxuan Martial Artist. Are you satisfied?"

Qi Longhu laughed heartily; it had been a long time since he had met someone who dared to question his strength.

"A Tongxuan Martial Artist?" Chen Heng's eyes lit up. Wasn't this exactly the kind of opponent he was looking for?

He just didn't know if this Tongxuan Martial Artist could satisfy him.

"Come!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Qi Longhu rushed toward Chen Heng like a swimming dragon.

Chen Heng was not to be outdone; he swung his black fiend blade directly at the crown of Qi Longhu's head.

"First Form! Tiger Roar!"

Bang! Bang, bang, bang, bang!

Qi Longhu didn't use any weapons, blocking all of Chen Heng's attacks with just a pair of iron fists.

Sparks flew everywhere, and Chen Heng retreated repeatedly.

It was the first time he had been suppressed in terms of strength.

"Kid, is that all the strength you have?" Although Qi Longhu said this, his movements did not pause in the slightest.

His pair of iron fists were as heavy as a thousand jun, and Chen Heng could only defend passively.

"Good, good, good!" Chen Heng was getting excited and directly released the compression on his muscles from the Nine Revolutions Longevity Art.

His entire body transformed from a 1.8-meter-tall dashing Young Master into a muscular brute over two meters tall.

The Nine Revolutions Longevity Art operated at high speed, repairing the body he had injured from the residual force.

He fully activated the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art, and his muscles expanded once more!

"Come again!" Chen Heng grinned. This was the opponent he was looking for!

"Third Form! Geng Metal Qi!"

Chen Heng didn't test him anymore and went all out.

Facing such an opponent, there was absolutely no need to hide his strength; only by going all out could he test his true capabilities.

"Good kid!" Qi Longhu's eyes also lit up.

As a Tongxuan Martial Artist, he walked the path of extreme strength.

It had been a long time since he had seen a martial artist walking the same path as him.

"Heart-Rending Claw!" Qi Longhu's entire body was steaming with heat; clearly, he had also brought out a portion of his true strength.

Chen Heng only felt a blur before his eyes, and Qi Longhu's sturdy body appeared behind him.

A sharp pain surged through him, and Chen Heng was sent flying.

"What speed!"

Although it hurt quite a bit, it didn't cause Chen Heng too much damage.

The Minor Achievement of the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art was no joke.

"You also practice hard body techniques?" Qi Longhu looked at Chen Heng with great surprise.

That look was as if he had seen a kindred spirit.

"Yeah, you'd better use more strength, otherwise it will be hard for you to break my skin."

Chen Heng wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and grinned ferociously.

"Also, is this all the strength you Tongxuan Martial Artists have?"

"It doesn't seem like enough."

"Then I will let you see what 'Tongxuan' really means."

Qi Longhu knew that Chen Heng was provoking him, but he fell for it every time.

As a martial artist who, like Chen Heng, walked the path of extreme strength, Qi Longhu's temper was naturally not very good either.

"Dragon Tiger Strength!" With an angry shout from Qi Longhu, a fist the size of a sandbag appeared in front of Chen Heng.

Chen Heng, going all out, barely caught sight of this punch and raised his black fiend blade to block.

Although he blocked the punch, the immense force still sent Chen Heng flying.

With a loud boom, Chen Heng was embedded into the ceiling.

He now felt pain all over his body, and his bones let out an unbearable wail.

"Damn it..."

Chen Heng rubbed his head; that last hit had some serious force behind it.

However, Qi Longhu still hadn't managed to break through Chen Heng's Indestructible Vajra Divine Art.

"Are you made of iron, kid?" Qi Longhu rubbed his own fist.

Looking closely, one could see that the skin on Qi Longhu's knuckles had all split open, revealing the snow-white bone underneath.

"I let you have two moves, now it's my turn."

Chen Heng pried himself out of the ceiling and, wielding his black fiend blade, flew toward Qi Longhu.

"Army Breaker!"

A blade light, sharp and filled with a thick murderous aura, swung out, heading straight for Qi Longhu's throat.

Qi Longhu had no intention of dodging; he swung an iron fist to block the blade.

However, this strike was merely a feint by Chen Heng to get close to Qi Longhu.

The real killing move was hidden behind the Army Breaker blade aura!

"First Form! Tiger Roar!"

Chen Heng did not hold back at all this time, and his black fiend blade, wrapped in Geng Metal Qi, struck the back of Qi Longhu's neck.

With a creaking sound, the black fiend blade seemed to get stuck.

Chen Heng's expression turned serious, and he pulled his blade back and retreated.

"The younger generation is truly formidable." Qi Longhu touched the bloody back of his neck, his eyes full of admiration as he looked at Chen Heng.

"To be able to counterattack while I was using sixty percent of my strength, you kid are a natural-born martial artist!"

"However, I also have my Face to consider; I can't let a sixteen-year-old kid beat me down."

"Sorry, I'm going to use my full strength now!"

After speaking, an indescribable pressure surged from Qi Longhu's body.

In Chen Heng's eyes, Qi Longhu's figure expanded infinitely, as if he had truly transformed into a ferocious tiger.

"Dragon Tiger Savage Strength!"

In that split second of distraction, Qi Longhu's fist had already landed on Chen Heng's chest.

This punch didn't produce the dull thud of flesh colliding, but the crisp sound of metal striking metal!

Clang!

The entire underground secret chamber was torn apart by the force of this punch, and expensive furniture turned into dust and flew everywhere.

Chen Heng was sent flying by this punch.

Meanwhile, the gamblers shouting frantically on the first floor of the gambling den noticed something was wrong.

The ground began to shake violently.

With a loud boom, the ground exploded, and a figure flew out from underground.

"That hurt like hell..." Chen Heng, covered in blood, slowly climbed up from the ground and looked around, holding his black fiend blade.

"How did I end up on the first floor?"

Just as Chen Heng was still wondering, Qi Longhu walked out from the iron door leading to the underground.

"Kid, both your temper and your strength are very much to my liking."

"How about it? Do you want to join my White Tiger Hall?"

After Qi Longhu finished speaking, the entire gambling den became so quiet that a pin drop could be heard.

Someone with sharp eyes saw the wound on Qi Longhu's body and almost cried out.

Qi Longhu, one of the five Hall Masters of Qiyang City, was actually injured?!

And he was personally inviting this youth to join the White Tiger Hall?

"Fine, I can join your White Tiger Hall." Chen Heng nodded and agreed.

"However, you have to teach me the martial art you just used!"

Chen Heng looked at Qi Longhu with bright eyes.

"Very well, from today on, you are an Outer Deacon of my White Tiger Hall!"

"..." The surroundings were terrifyingly quiet; everyone's gaze was focused on Chen Heng.

"What are you standing there for? Why don't you greet him?" Qi Longhu frowned; why were his underlings so lacking in awareness?

"Subordinates greet the Outer Deacon!"

All the White Tiger Hall members knelt on one knee and shouted in unison.
