Chapter 261: Chapter 189: Dragon and Tiger Kan and Li Skill

While remaining vigilant, Zou Feng secretly checked the List of Gods again.

The result was unchanged.

The only member of the Gongsun Royal Family who harbored killing intent toward him was still her father, Gongsun Ye.

’The List of Gods is unlikely to be wrong.’ Therefore, no matter how much Zou Feng racked his brain, he couldn’t figure out why Gongsun Jinghong had sought him out.

“If the Commandery Princess wants to avenge Yuwen Zheng, there’s no need for all this trouble. Just make your move!”

Unable to figure it out, Zou Feng decided to provoke her instead.

’A fight is probably inevitable anyway.’

“Avenge that piece of trash?” Gongsun Jinghong’s face was full of disgust as she sneered. “Is he even worthy?”

“Don’t overthink it. I simply came to meet you.”

Zou Feng said impatiently, “Alright then. Since you’ve seen me, I’ll be taking my leave!”

With that, Zou Feng gave Bian Yixia a look, signaling for her to leave first.

“Hold on. If you can take a palm strike from me, I will naturally let you leave…”

Zou Feng sneered. ’After all that talk, it still comes down to a fight.’

But having just made a breakthrough in his Cultivation Skill, he was actually eager to see just how powerful a so-called Gao Ping Martial Artist really was.

The next moment, Zou Feng leaped down from the tree trunk and landed on the ravaged ground.

He then gestured for Gongsun Jinghong to make her move.

As he entered a combat stance, the sound of surging waves seemed to fill the air, and Gang Qi flowed around his body like a tide.

Gongsun Jinghong had witnessed Zou Feng’s Big Move, “Thousand Hands Exorcism,” from afar, so she knew he lived up to his reputation. Still, she felt something was missing without testing him herself.

’Besides, for my true purpose, the stronger Zou Feng is, the better the result will be.’

With a light chuckle, Gongsun Jinghong abruptly vanished.

When she reappeared, it was as if she had teleported in front of Zou Feng, delivering a seemingly light and airy palm strike.

Though the palm strike looked light, Zou Feng felt the space around him instantly turn into thick, viscous mud, rendering him almost immobile.

Fortunately, he was prepared. Cultivating his skill again, the water waves turned into a tsunami, completely washing away the abnormality in the surrounding space.

He immediately struck back with the Five Poison Heart-Pushing Palm, a move he hadn’t used in a long time.

Of course, this strike only used the foundation of the Five Poison Heart-Pushing Palm. He had long since integrated many other Cultivation Skills into it, modifying it into a much higher-level technique.

No matter where it hit an enemy, it could produce the “Heart-Pushing” effect.

THUMP—

As Gongsun Jinghong and Zou Feng’s palms met, a startling, muffled sound erupted.

Ripples of Qi Force spread out, visible to the naked eye.

At this moment, Bian Yixia chose not to leave. It wasn’t that she wanted to stay and be a burden; her intuition told her that Gongsun Jinghong didn’t really seem to be here for revenge.

’Instead, the way Gongsun Jinghong is looking at Zou Feng… it’s like a brothel girl seeing a wealthy client…’

Furthermore, from this palm clash, Bian Yixia was even more certain that Gongsun Jinghong hadn’t used her full strength.

Otherwise, a True Qi Realm expert going all out would create a much greater commotion.

In fact, Zou Feng, who had met Gongsun Jinghong’s palm, was just as bewildered.

The palm strike was indeed profound in many ways, but it held no killing intent. It really felt like just a tentative probe.

But even so, a palm strike from a True Qi Realm expert was not so easily endured.

During the clash, Zou Feng could clearly sense several tendrils of Gongsun Jinghong’s True Qi invading his entire body, traveling rapidly up his arm.

They were like invisible hands, kneading his muscles all over.

But with the blessing of his Tribulation-Indestructible Body, a bit of kneading from her True Qi was completely painless and didn’t even tickle.

He immediately executed the Tiger Body Shakes, completely scattering all her True Qi.

At the same time, Gongsun Jinghong, having roughly gauged Zou Feng’s depth, retreated with a satisfied, graceful float.

To be able to disengage so easily from a deadlocked palm clash proved the extent of Gongsun Jinghong’s strength and her effortless control.

“Not bad. You’re hard enough!” After retreating, Gongsun Jinghong nodded slightly, a look of pleasant surprise in her eyes as she gave her assessment.

Zou Feng’s Tribulation-Indestructible Body was, of course, tough as nails, but Bian Yixia, watching from a distance, couldn’t help but feel that this hussy had an ulterior meaning…

However, just as the words left her mouth, a sudden throb pulsed from within her.

A look of surprise appeared on Gongsun Jinghong’s face. She then frowned and patted her chest.

A moment ago, she had clearly felt her heartbeat suddenly accelerate, as if her heart was about to burst from her chest.

It was a good thing she was still circulating her True Qi. Otherwise, while her heart might not have literally burst out, she could have suffered a minor injury from being caught off guard.

Clearly, this was the delayed power of the Five Poison Heart-Pushing Palm.

Gongsun Jinghong had originally been praising Zou Feng’s Tribulation-Indestructible Body; she hadn’t thought his palm strike was all that powerful.

Only now did she realize: this palm strike was even harder!

After a brief moment of stunned silence, Gongsun Jinghong was overjoyed.

Zou Feng’s condition, in every aspect, was far better than she had anticipated.

’In that case, there’s no need to hesitate…’

“Very good. Enough with the nonsense. Zou Feng, how about you and I engage in dual cultivation?” No longer beating around the bush, Gongsun Jinghong finally got straight to the point.

’What the hell is dual cultivation?’

Zou Feng was stunned. He couldn’t comprehend Gongsun Jinghong’s train of thought at all.

’Her fiancé’s corpse has barely gone cold, and she wants to dual cultivate with his killer? This woman must be seriously sick in the head.’
