In the beginning, he was ranked alongside An Shigeng as a spoiled brat.

However, everyone present knew that although this strike seemed to be incredibly powerful, it was actually the Pure Yang Finger, which was renowned throughout the martial arts world and was considered the best in terms of its refined technique!

puff!

Although no finger force was visible, Kumārajīva's Tanzhong acupoint had already been pierced by a single finger.

And its final burst of sword energy vanished silently into the world, leaving no trace whatsoever.

This incredible finger strength not only shocked Kumārajīva, but also the hidden 2.0 spy masters.

Zhang Xiaoshan's gesture completely shattered their understanding.

Even a Grandmaster could only forcefully shatter that blazing fiery blade aura.

However, Zhang Xiaoshan's refined Pure Yang Finger broke through the surface with a single point, directly piercing the sword energy and passing through Kumārajīva's body.

Such concentrated and domineering finger force means that protective qi is completely useless in the face of the Pure Yang Finger.

"This finger strike shattered the master's meridians, and from now on, the master can only be an ordinary person."

Furthermore, this time Buddha descended upon karma and Tantra; next time, karma may be directly manifested in the Potala Palace. After all, a mere earthquake could reduce this sacred palace, which has shone like the sun over Tibet for centuries, to ashes!

"Namo Amitabha!"

Sure enough, Zhang Xiaoshan's words directly confirmed his guess: the Zhang family was behind it all!

However, at this point, Kumārajīva had completely abandoned any thoughts of revenge, realizing just how powerful the Zhang family truly were—something that Tibet could not afford to provoke.

If the Zhang family were to act collectively, even if the Blood Droplets and Blood Thorns were to strike simultaneously, they would still be no match for the trampling of 100,000 iron cavalry.

However, a Grandmaster's targeted attack and forceful assassination is so powerful that even a million-strong army could not save a Grandmaster's life.

Chapter 466 Cihang Jingzhai Shi Feixuan

"No one inside is dead; they'll wake up tomorrow morning!"

After leaving, Zhang Xiaoshan glanced at the commander of the Thousand Bull Guards, nodded, and gave an order.

To avoid the other party thinking that the entire Tibetan delegation inside had been wiped out, they were immediately buried or cremated.

This time, Tibet brought many experts. In addition to Kumārajīva and sixteen Dharma protectors, there were also more than thirty guards who were at least at the third-rate level. At this time, all of their martial arts skills had been crippled by Zhang Xiaoshan.

After all, these were envoys; killing them would surely throw the border into chaos, and Zhang Xiaoshan was well aware of the consequences.

"Master, walk slowly!"

Upon hearing that Zhang Xiaoshan had not killed anyone, the junior commander of the Thousand Bull Guards breathed a sigh of relief.

As long as no one dies, even if it gets out of hand, it's just a dispute.

The entire Tibetan delegation was in the wrong, but Zhang Xiaoshan, enraged for his lover, stormed their door. That was manly courage, and no one would think Zhang Xiaoshan was wrong.

"Go in and take a look!"

When the group entered the state guesthouse, they saw that the interior was filled with corpses lying haphazardly on the ground.

Based on Qianniuwei's many years of experience, it's likely that someone is dead.

Especially since it was a Tibetan delegation, if anyone died, the consequences would be so severe that it could very well trigger a war between the two countries.

"As expected, they were ruthless!"

After examining the situation, the commander of the Thousand Bull Guards immediately understood the methods Zhang Xiaoshan had employed.

It should be noted that the delegation from Tibet consisted of highly skilled individuals, with Kumārajīva being hailed as the number one expert in Tibet. It is likely that Zhang Xiaoshan has crippled all of them in their martial arts.

"How is Commander Song?" (19)

The visitor was the head of the Ministry of Rites in charge of the state guesthouse. Looking at the corpses on the ground, he knew best the consequences of this diplomatic incident.

"They must have been hit by the legendary Pure Yang Finger technique; they're all in a state of suspended animation. They should wake up tomorrow morning, but..."

"But what?"

"They have lost all their martial arts skills and become ordinary people, but this will not have any impact on diplomacy."

Upon hearing the commander's words, the newcomer breathed a sigh of relief.

That would be best, as long as they aren't all paralyzed or dead, there's still room for things to turn around.

'Now find a spacious hall and settle them all in.'

Since they said they'd wake up tomorrow morning, there shouldn't be any changes. All we need to do is ensure their safety!

"Yes!"

While the Imperial Guards were moving the corpses, the Plum Blossom Guards went to report to the Empress.

The Tibetan delegation suffered a huge loss this time. Although this was not Tibet's entire force, it definitely included a significant number of its middle-ranking members, who are now all stuck here.

At the very least, having lost all their martial arts skills, these people are now useless.

···

"It's the Pure Yang Finger again!"

"Young Master Ling, are you saying all these Tibetan masters are now useless?"

"Of course they're all ruined. Unless they're as lucky as us, it's impossible for them to regain their martial arts skills."

Moreover, compared to that Golden-Faced Buddha, this Young Master Zhang's Pure Yang Finger is more than twice as terrifying.

If it had been this person who intervened, we would never have recovered our strength before we died. We can only say that a bunch of Tibetan barbarians were unlucky to have offended him.

On the main street of Shen Du, Shi Feixuan overheard the two dragons' discussion.

She also knew about Shuanglong's fate, but as the only one who recovered her power from the Pure Yang Finger, she was most aware of how terrifying the Pure Yang Finger was.

"The Golden-Faced Buddha is skilled in the Heavenly Crippled Divine Art, and it is rumored that his strength is even greater than that of the Fire Cloud Evil God Ancient Sword Soul back then."

Young Master Zhang is skilled in the Pure Yang Limitless Skill, and the Pure Yang Finger is entirely powered by the Pure Yang Limitless Skill. Both of them are peerless geniuses of their time, and you are already extremely lucky to have the opportunity to meet them.

However, I never expected that the Tibetan Great Wheel King Kumārajīva would be such a man, his character comparable to the two of you!

Song Yuzhi looked at the twin dragons with her bright, intelligent eyes, revealing a look of envy.

It should be noted that the Golden-Faced Buddha is none other than this Young Master Zhang, a legendary figure in Kyushu.

The fact that the two dragons received the three Dragon-Slaying Techniques is already a great stroke of luck; moreover, being able to escape with their lives from the Golden-Faced Buddha is truly a blessing.

However, in her eyes, Shuanglong's character was comparable to that of Kumārajīva.

Kumārajīva betrayed his promise and passed on his skills to Tibetan monks; the two dragons spied on Ghost Street, showing their 'ingratitude'.

"Hey! Hey! Hey, little girl, don't talk nonsense!"

"Hehe, you can do it, but you won't allow people to say it. Why did the Golden-Faced Buddha attack you? Who in the entire martial arts world doesn't know?"

"If it weren't for Young Master Zhang's influence, how many of you who spied on Ghost Street would have made it out alive? Isn't that 'ingratitude'? How is it any different from that great monk's betrayal?"

'You wild girl, you still dare to talk back!'

Amidst the playful banter, Shi Feixuan could only sigh helplessly.

Having learned more about Shuanglong over this period of time, she also knows that Shuanglong is not a truly 'ungrateful' person, but was just being used by others.

Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to keep the two dragons following her all this time;

Another reason is the secret to longevity.

The Longevity Technique is a supreme cultivation method widely circulated in Taoism. Especially since the Twin Dragons have just entered the martial world and have already been used by others, if they are used again, they are very likely to fall into the demonic path.

"Master Feixuan of Cihang Jingzhai has come to see Young Master Zhang!"

ask to see?

Even Song Yuzhi couldn't help but show a hint of surprise when she heard Shi Feixuan's humble tone.

You should know that Cihang Jingzhai is proud and treats princes and heads of noble families as equals. They would never be so humble.

However, given their identities, it's understandable.

"Master, my young master is in his study. Please come in!"

Jiangxue walked out of the courtyard and nodded to Shi Feixuan.

Although both were top-tier experts, Shi Feixuan sensed an inexplicable aura the moment she saw Jiang Xue.

Master!

Moreover, he was a master among the most outstanding experts.

As for identity?

There were only a few women in the Zhang family, and five of them were maids—Murong Jiu, Hongxiao Jiangxue, and the Hu Ji sisters.

Unexpectedly, a mere maid in the Zhang family possesses unparalleled strength, enough to become a powerful figure in the outside world.

Upon entering the villa, besides surprise and awe, there was also envy.

"The young master is inside, please!"

Inside the study, Zhang Xiaoshan, upon returning, immediately began studying the blueprints.

These blueprints are none other than the structural design drawings for the Third Ghost Street.

As Princess Taiping's cultivation deepened, she was expected to break through to the Grandmaster level within a year. Zhang Xiaoshan then planned to establish the third Ghost Street in the capital.

Moreover, unlike Madam Wang's arrangement, the Third Ghost Street is just like the Ghost Street in Lin'an Prefecture, a darkness beneath the light!

The person Zhang Xiaoshan arranged to control Ghost Street this time was none other than the Queen Mother of the West and the Mysterious Woman!

He believed in Princess Taiping's ambition and that she would be interested in becoming the ruler of Ghost Street, while Xuan Nu, as the former queen general of the Queen Mother of the West, would be an excellent protector.

In this way, we only need to find one more of the top three!

"Shi Feixuan greets Young Master Zhang!"

The four men entered and saw Zhang Xiaoshan drawing blueprints, their eyes showing surprise.

"Fairy Master, I have been negligent!"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked up at the newcomer, passing over the two dragons, and stopped on Shi Feixuan, who was wearing a blue and white dress.

It must be said that the title of "fairy" is truly well-deserved.

With her otherworldly beauty, she must possess a compassionate heart that embodies the Cihang Sword Manual, and her cultivation of it must be imbued with a sense of empathy and compassion for all beings. She is as aloof and elegant as a rare orchid in a secluded valley, pure and refined.

Another young girl, Song Yuzhi, was also charming and lovely, with an almond-shaped face and peach-like cheeks. She was a stunningly beautiful woman of exquisite and adorable appearance!

"Daughter of the Heavenly Blade, it seems we have quite a few distinguished guests today!"

As for the two dragons, it was already a miracle that Zhang Xiaoshan didn't kick them out.

Seeing Zhang Xiaoshan simply pass by them, Shuanglong felt both helpless and fortunate, since they were in the wrong.

"Young master, the milk tea and coffee are ready!"

Hongxiao brought in tea. Shi Feixuan and Song Yuzhi had bubble tea in front of them, but the two dragons had elephant dung coffee in front of them, clearly meant to disgust them.

This item is definitely an outlier among the luxury goods in the Zhang family mansion.

"These are Zhang family specialties. Pearl 323 milk tea is suitable for girls, and coffee is a beverage that came from the Persian Empire."

"Thank you, sir!"

Shi Feixuan was indifferent to these things, but Song Yuzhi liked them very much.

The Song family is also a top-tier aristocratic family, holding sway over a region. Naturally, they are no strangers to the Zhang family's desserts, which are their favorite.

"What brings you here, Fairy Master?"

Zhang Xiaoshan glanced at Shi Feixuan; he didn't like the way Cihang Jingzhai operated. But since they weren't enemies, Zhang Xiaoshan didn't treat them coldly.

However, he believed that Cihang Jingzhai would only visit the temple if there was a reason.

Shi Feixuan must have something to ask of him at this time.

"Feixuan has come here for two reasons, firstly to pay a visit to Young Master Zhang."

Secondly, Shi Feixuan also has a question she would like to ask you, young master.

"Oh, is there a problem, Fairy Master?"

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Shi Feixuan with curiosity in his eyes.

Knowing Cihang Cijingzhai's style and compassionate nature, asking for advice could very well be interpreted as an accusation. She was curious about what Shi Feixuan wanted to ask.
