The temple attacked the Star Sword Sect without any warning, and Ou Zhen was stabbed to death. Immediately afterwards, the Japanese Ronin came to challenge the Star Sword Sect. Li Tianhao had reason to believe that this series of actions was carefully planned in secret.

.

The person behind the scenes is none other than the legendary Japanese pirate leader, Huo Xie Zong.

Huo Xie Zong is an extremely mysterious Japanese master.

This man has extremely high martial arts skills and is said to be invincible in the world. Even though he is a Japanese warrior, few people have seen him in person.

Legend has it that this man always wore a mask with a ghostly face when meeting outsiders, and no one knew what he looked like. Anyone who saw his true face was killed by him. Not only was his martial arts unpredictable, but he also behaved erratically.

He is cruel, murderous, lustful and drunk, and he is responsible for almost all bad things in the world.

Originally, he was not a Japanese pirate, but a ninja of the Japanese Iga sect. However, he did not want to abide by the many rules of the ninja, and liked to be alone and do whatever he wanted, so he joined a group of ronin and became a pirate. Because he

He is highly skilled in martial arts and proficient in political tactics.

So within a few years, all the Japanese pirates who originally had many factions were gathered under his sect. Since then, the Japanese pirates have become increasingly powerful, like a huge maritime army. Any martial arts sect, or even the local government army, can really

The earth is unable to fight alone.

The coastline of China is too long, and the government and army are not skilled in naval warfare, so they have to defend passively. They have always been beaten, but unable to conquer them. Because of this, the Japanese pirates have been unable to be eradicated for many years since they became a problem.

Ren Xiaoyao is a smart man. He has actually understood this truth for a long time. However, the martial arts community in the Central Plains has never been united. It is powerless to go out to sea to conquer with just the strength of the Xiaoyao family. When Ren Xiaoyao was young, he first met Ou Zhenduo.

After competing with Zhang Yu for the first place in the world, he was lost among the four

In the midst of the overt and covert struggles of the big family, in fact, he didn't really bother to deal with the Japanese pirates at all. The only thing he could do was to order all the martial arts factions along the Jiangnan coast to unite and fight back when the Japanese pirates came ashore. However, this was not possible at all.

It's just a last resort and cannot fundamentally solve the problem.

Ren Xiaoyao was severely injured by Ghost Daozi in the capital, and his desire to win immediately sank. He already knew that in his lifetime, it would be impossible to dominate the world and become the overlord of the martial arts world. However, he should still be able to use the rest of his life to fight for

One good thing Wulin does is to eradicate Japanese pirates.

To eradicate the Japanese pirates, there is only one option: to go to sea to conquer the Japanese pirates' lair. Even if all the Japanese pirates cannot be annihilated, they must be severely damaged so that they will be unable to invade China again in the future.

Fortunately, Ren Xiaoyao's decision first received the support of Sichuan Tang Sect, another major family in the martial arts world. If he could contact the Xingjian Sect again, he would be almost half of the martial arts family, and he would naturally have the strength to fight against the Japanese pirates.

Even though the Huoxie Sect's martial arts were unparalleled, Ren Xiaoyao didn't believe that with so many masters in the Central Plains martial arts community, they still couldn't defeat a single Japanese.

However, the Huoxie Sect has been able to cause trouble along the coast for many years and can come and go freely. First of all, his sources of information must be very extensive. Most of those who help him find out the information are Japanese wanderers without any sect. As long as they are promised some

Benefits, they will be used for you.

The recent actions of the Xiaoyao Sect have already attracted the attention of the Huoxie Sect. Because of the incompetence of the official army, the biggest enemies of the Japanese pirates are actually the warriors of various sects along the coast, and the leader of the martial arts in the south of the Yangtze River is naturally the Xiaoyao Sect. Just defeat them.

Xiaoyaomen, no one would dare to be his enemy after that.

The Huoxie Sect then hired a large number of Japanese Ronin to search for information all over the Central Plains. Of course, in fact, many of the so-called Japanese Ronin were simply disguised as the Huoxie Sect’s own subordinates. The Japanese pirates came and went without a trace, and no one knew which one was the real one.

of Japanese pirates.

At first, the Huoxie Sect contacted the Star Sword Sect first. After being rejected, he asked Mu Tengzuo to assassinate the two heads of the Star Sword Sect one after another. Later, the Huoxie Sect reached an agreement with the new Lord of the Temple, Sheng Zhiqiang, to let the Temple first

They helped him severely damage the Star Sword Sect, and then the Fire Evil Sect asked the Japanese Ronin to go up to the mountain to stir up trouble. This was all planned and arranged in advance.

According to legend, the Huoxie Sect has four subordinates who are very powerful. In the martial arts world of the Central Plains, ordinary people are no match for them.

Li Tianhao led his disciples to the checkpoint in the south of Xingjian Mountain, but saw a group of Japanese Ronin blocking the pass, threatening to compete with the masters of Xingjian Sect in martial arts.

The leaders were indeed four young samurai. They were all somewhat similar in appearance and clothing. They were all carrying Japanese swords.

"It seems that these Japanese robbers came quite politely. They did not launch a sneak attack without any warning like the temple did, but openly threatened the challenge.

As the saying goes, it is easy to hide from an open gun, but difficult to guard against a hidden arrow.

If the Temple had not launched a surprise attack without warning, how could it have severely damaged the Star Sword Gate? In a head-on confrontation, with the Temple's current strength, it would only suffer a loss and not gain any advantage at all.

"I, Li Tianhao, am the head of the Star Sword Sect. Since you are going to challenge the Star Sword Sect, can you tell me your names first?" Li Tianhao also said very politely.

"Are you the head of the Star Sword Sect? Didn't you say that the head of the Star Sword Sect is called Ou Zhen?" one of the leaders asked, seemingly unaware that Ou Zhen was dead.

"To be honest with you, the previous head Ou Zhen has passed away, and I just took over as head a few days ago." Li Tianhao replied.

"Oh! That's it. Since you are the leader, we will look for you. My name is Suzuki, and I am a small character with no family or sect in Japan. I have heard for a long time that the Xingjian Sect's martial arts is profound and profound, and its swordsmanship is unparalleled in the martial arts world.

, so I came here with some Japanese friends to ask for advice. I believe that Master Li will be willing to give me some advice!" Suzuki was also very polite and did not look like he was looking for trouble.

"It's easy to say. Since you have come all the way, the Xingjian Sect will naturally treat you with courtesy. It's just that the sword has no eyes. If you are not careful, Ji may hurt your harmony." Li Tianhao said tentatively.

"Don't worry, Master Li. The Japanese warriors only pursue the truth of martial arts and have no regard for life and death. Since Master Li accepts the challenge, he should choose a day to sacrifice to heaven and compete solemnly to determine the winner. This is the way to treat guests." Suzuki

He said it very seriously, not joking at all.

"To compete in martial arts, you still have to choose a day to worship heaven and earth?" Nangong Feiying even asked doubtfully.

Li Tianhao didn't know what the other party wanted to do, and he saw that there were a lot of people coming from the other party, and he didn't know how many people were hiding behind him. In order to avoid being passive, he had to agree first: "Okay, since Mr. Suzuki said so, I will press
