Chapter 249: Mu Zha Shows His Power
Zhang Guifang was shocked when he heard this. Then, he smiled and said loudly:
"Haha, it turns out you are also disciples of Jiejiao!"
After saying this, his eyes swept back and forth between Yuan Hong and Mu Zha, as if he was looking at old friends he had not seen for a long time.
When Yuan Hong and Mu Zha heard what Zhang Guifang said, a look of surprise and confusion flashed in their eyes.
"What do you mean, General? Could it be that... you are also a disciple of Jiejiao?" Mu Zha took a step forward, with a hint of confusion in his words.
"That's true." Zhang Guifang smiled slightly, with a look of reminiscence and emotion in her eyes.
"In my early years, by chance, I had the honor to meet the third generation outer sect disciple of Jiejiao - Master Baoshan."
"He was kindhearted and saw that I had good aptitude, so he accepted me as his disciple and taught me martial arts and Taoism."
"That time is the most precious memory in my life."
Speaking of this, Zhang Guifang's eyes couldn't help but reveal a bit of nostalgia and gratitude.
He slightly turned sideways, looked at Yuan Hong and Mu Zha with gentle eyes, and continued:
"However, compared to you, I am just an ordinary disciple of Jiejiao."
"You two are the direct disciples of the National Master Luo Shu. You are gifted and your cultivation is far superior to mine. You are truly the best among men. I cannot even begin to catch up with you."
When Yuan Hong heard this, a hint of humility and admiration flashed in his eyes. He stepped forward, bowed and said:
"General, you are too modest. There are many disciples in Jiejiao, and each has his own strengths."
"Although you and I are from different sects, we are both from the same sect, so we should support and help each other."
Mu Zha listened quietly at the side, with a gleam of recognition in his eyes.
When Zhang Guifang heard this, a hint of emotion flashed in her eyes and a warm feeling surged in her heart.
He himself knew that most of the disciples of Jiejiao were loyal and righteous, and had similar personalities.
"Since you and I are both disciples of Jiejiao, there is no need to be so polite."
Zhang Guifang's voice was warm and sincere, and his words were like a spring breeze, blowing away the previous restraint and estrangement.
"You are the direct descendants of Jiejiao, and your cultivation is profound. I shall call you my senior brothers."
Zhang Guifang's words were full of respect and humility. He was well aware that his status in Jiejiao was inferior to that of Yuan Hong and Mu Zha.
As he spoke, Zhang Guifang bowed and performed the standard master-disciple ceremony to Yuan Hong and Mu Zha.
"Two senior brothers, I am honored to be here."
Zhang Guifang's voice is low and powerful, and his words are filled with endless sincerity and respect.
Seeing this, Yuan Hong and Mu Zha hurried forward to support Zhang Guifang.
"You are too polite, General."
Yuan Hong's voice was gentle and powerful. He patted Zhang Guifang's shoulder gently and continued:
"Although you and I are both disciples of Jiejiao, you are now in a high position, working for the Shang Dynasty, shouldering the responsibility of defending the territory and protecting the people."
"So, there's no need to be so polite. How about this, between you and me, there's no need to stick to worldly etiquette. Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable, how about that?"
Mu Zha also nodded in agreement, his voice revealing a hint of warmth and understanding:
"Yes, for disciples like me, Jiejiao, we value friendship from the heart and affection from the heart. Let's just let those red tapes go with the wind."
When Zhang Guifang heard this, ripples appeared in her heart.
"My two brothers have a point. I am too rigid."
Zhang Guifang smiled, his voice full of relief and ease.
After saying this, Mu Zha took a step forward and continued:
"Okay, I won't say any more polite words. Next, we still have to deal with the Zhou army under the city."
His voice was steady and powerful, revealing an unquestionable decisiveness.
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hong curled up a faint smile.
He was well aware of Mu Zha's intentions and determination, and also understood the urgency of the current situation.
So, Yuan Hong nodded slightly to show his agreement:
"My junior brother is right. My lord, since the enemy troops under the city are so arrogant, let me go and meet them."
When Zhang Guifang heard this, a hint of depth flashed in her eyes.
He knew that Yuan Hong and Mu Zha were both extremely powerful, at least far beyond his reach.
Therefore, Zhang Guifang approved of Yuan Hong's request to fight.
After all, Zi Yu’s strength under the city should not be underestimated.
So he nodded, bowed respectfully to Yuan Hong, and said:
"Brother Yuan is determined to go and fight. I will rest assured and give him my full support."
"But please be careful, Ziyu is no ordinary person."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hong smiled and glanced at Zi Yu under the city, saying disdainfully:
"I have nothing to fear from a mere late Xuanxian cultivation level!"
"If he is not afraid of death, I, Yuan Hong, will play with him. Let's see whether the sword in his hand is sharper or the stick in my hand is more powerful."
Before he finished speaking, Yuan Hong was ready to go downstairs to fight.
However, at this critical moment, Mu Zha on the side spoke out to stop him, with some sincerity and persistence in his voice.
"Big Brother, wait a minute."
Mu Zha took a step forward and stood side by side with Yuan Hong, his eyes also looking at Zi Yu under the city, with a gleam of light in his eyes.
"Big Brother, the people below the city are still not very skilled. If you were to go out and deal with them, it would be a bit of a waste of your talent. Let me take it over with you, Junior Brother!"
"Besides, Junior Brother also wants to take this opportunity to gain some experience and see what level of cultivation he has reached."
Upon hearing this, Yuan Hong was slightly stunned, and then burst into laughter.
He patted Mu Zha on the shoulder, his eyes full of praise:
"Okay! Junior brother, what you said makes sense. Since you are determined, I will leave it to you."
After saying that, Yuan Hong stepped aside and gave the opportunity to fight to Mu Zha.
With a clear whistle, Mu Zha suddenly jumped up and shot towards the city like an arrow.
His speed was so fast that it almost exceeded the limit of what the naked eye could capture, leaving only a golden afterimage passing through the air.
When Mu Zha landed steadily in front of Zi Yu, their eyes met instantly, as if sparks were colliding in the air.
"I am Mu Zha, a disciple of Jiejiao, and I have come to meet you specially!"
Mu Zha's voice was loud and powerful, with unquestionable majesty.
His eyes were like torches as he stared straight at Zi Yu, as if he wanted to see through the other's soul.
Seeing this, Zi Yu was not willing to be outdone and snorted coldly:
"Humph, a mere Jiejiao disciple dares to challenge me? Listen, I am a disciple of Chanjiao - Zi Yu. If you are not afraid of death, just come at me!"
After saying that, Zi Yu also activated his own spiritual power, and a faint green aura surrounded his body.
He swung the Wu Gou sword in his hand violently, and it instantly turned into a green light, heading straight towards Mu Zha.
Seeing this, Mu Zha curled up the corner of his mouth into a sneer.
He moved his body slightly, like a dragon playing in the water, light and agile, and easily avoided Zi Yu's powerful attack.
At the moment of dodging the attack, Mu Zha did not hesitate at all. He quickly adjusted his body and launched a fierce counterattack with his backhand.
Mu Zha just stretched out his right hand gently, and a light flashed in his palm. The dragon-patterned stick suddenly appeared. The dragon pattern carved on it seemed to come alive, exuding a faint majesty and power.
"Disciple of the Chan Sect, please watch carefully!"
Mu Zha's voice was deep and powerful, revealing an unquestionable dominance.
He tightly grasped the dragon-patterned stick and suddenly leaped up like a tiger descending from the mountain, unstoppable.
Amid the flying stick shadows, golden and green light intertwined together, forming a dazzling picture.
When Zi Yu saw this, his face changed slightly. He didn't expect that Mu Zha not only had amazing physical skills, but also had such an extraordinary magic weapon.
He quickly took out the Wu Gou Sword, trying to block Mu Zha's attack that was as violent as a tide.
However, Mu Zha's dragon-patterned stick seemed to have spirituality, and it could always launch surprise attacks at the most unexpected angles, making it impossible for him to defend himself.
