Chapter 48: Wisdom Triumphs Over Hong Fu Nü

  Hong Yu's brush is quick, but Du He's is even quicker!

  Facing the red-clothed woman's strong attack, Du He didn't dare to be slow, and his body dodged to the side, lightly letting her pass. The red-clothed woman missed with one grab, and the next grab followed immediately, this move coming even faster and more violently.

  Du He dodged to the left and retreated far away.

  Hong Fu's martial arts skills are indeed impressive, but Du He's lightness skills are not bad either! Especially her body shape and footwork, can be considered the best in the world. It's not easy for Hong Fu to hurt Du He.

  It's just that dodging can't bring victory, and Du He had to admit that Hong Fu Nü, one of the three chivalrous heroes of the jianghu, wasn't a name in vain. Her martial arts skills were far superior to his. However, if it weren't for Du He losing all his martial arts skills due to crossing over, with Du Chang Tian's martial arts skills, Hong Fu Nü wouldn't be able to withstand three moves from him.

  Du He dodged while thinking of a countermeasure.

  Martial arts is not everything, having strong martial arts skills does not necessarily mean one will be the winner.

  Let's take Chu Liuxiang for example. Chu Liuxiang's martial arts skills are not the highest, and in front of real masters, he has almost no power to fight back. He can't withstand a single sword from Xue Yiren, the number one swordsman under heaven, nor can he resist Shi Guanyin's attacks. Shuimu Yinji is even more ruthless, saying that seven or eight moves will definitely kill Chu Liuxiang, and Chu Liuxiang has no objection to this. Because what Shuimu Yinji said is a big truth.

  But these people one by one were defeated at the hands of Chu Liuxiang, they lost not in martial arts, but in wisdom.

  At times, wisdom is more important than martial arts skills.

  Hong Fu Nü had already begun her adventures in the Jianghu by the end of the Sui Dynasty, and whether it was experience or skill, she surpassed Du He. With Du He's martial arts skills, it was almost impossible to defeat Hong Fu Nü, so he could only rely on his wits.

  Just as he was thinking, Hong Dangnu suddenly shouted: "You little brat, you're running for your life, not competing in martial arts!" She unexpectedly took a deep breath.

  Du He's heart moved, and he let out a long laugh. "Senior, you must have misunderstood. Du He is not fleeing for his life. It's just that Father taught me to respect the elderly and love the young. As a junior seeing your advanced age, I retreated without attacking, letting you take a few moves."

  Older people are most taboo when others say they are old, especially for a fiery and proud character like Hong Fu Nü.

  Du He said she was old and had already infuriated her, let alone Du He being so "letting" her?

  "Who wants you to yield!" Hong E shouted, "When I was traveling the world, your mother was still breastfeeding! Although she was furious, she still suppressed her anger and calmly faced her enemy.

  "In that case!" Du He laughed loudly again and said: "Then the junior will respectfully obey!"

  Du He took three steps back and suddenly darted towards Hong Bo like a flash of lightning.

  He went all out and accelerated his speed to the extreme.

  Within ten paces, it arrives in the blink of an eye.

  Hong Yu didn't expect Du He's speed to be so fast, and for a moment she couldn't react, thus losing the initiative.

  Du He approached Hong Zhanu, without a moment's hesitation, and immediately unfolded the "Wind Cloud Palm" technique. One move was "Flowing Clouds and Water", one move followed another, the palm techniques were smooth and continuous, like flowing water, unobstructed, leaving no room for his opponent to counterattack.

  The martial arts of the Iron Blood Great Flag Gate are known for their ferocity and boldness, and Du He seems to have taken out a desperate stance, displaying an even more majestic and powerful aura.

  The red-clothed woman's palm technique was exquisite, not inferior to the Great Flag Wind Cloud Palm. Her martial arts were also higher than Du He's, but she had lost the initiative and could only passively defend against Du He's relentless and continuous attacks.

  "The Clouds and Water" move is about to end, Du He immediately follows up with "Flipping Clouds and Pouring Rain". This move lives up to its name, using extremely fast palm techniques to launch a frenzied attack on the enemy, like flipping clouds and pouring rain.

  Next is "Stormy Wind" palm method, pouring down like a storm, the palm wind is fierce like a hurricane, and finally "Overturning Mountains and Seas", the palm movement is majestic like overturning mountains and seas, one wave after another.

  Du He's moves were linked together seamlessly, each one connecting to the next. Faced with this overwhelming offense, Hong Bu's defense was more than sufficient, but she had no power to counterattack.

  Du He laughed loudly: "I see that the Red Whirlwind Girl who shook the world is nothing but this!"

  Hong E's face was already burning with shame from being forced by Du He, and now he was mocking her again, looking so smug and self-satisfied. Suddenly, she flew into a rage and shouted: "You young whippersnapper, don't be so insolent!"

  She transformed her palm into a knife and stabbed Du He's chest, aiming for his vital point.

  This is Li Wei Ling's killer move that left Du He Xin with lingering fear.

  It's just used by different people!

  Li Weiling was young and had no murderous aura on her body, this move was just a resemblance, but Hong Fu Nü was once the top killer under Yang Su's command, this move, a chill, straight to Du He's spine.

  She had no knife in her hand, but Du He knew that if she was hit by this move, she would either die or be crippled.

  Du He had long been prepared and his body shape had already moved, barely avoiding it.

  Hong Bu Ni forced Du He to retreat, shouting: "Little boy, today let you taste the severity!" She took the initiative to prevent Du He from taking the lead again, and in an instant, she had already chopped six palms at Du He's shoulder, chest, and waist.

  Du He's figure is like a willow in the wind, each palm strike dodges and weaves.

  The red-clad woman's first six palms didn't hit the mark, but her seventh, eighth and ninth palms shot out with a whooshing sound. In an instant, the old woman seemed to transform into a fierce tiger descending from the mountain, its shadow leaping and pouncing, its paws dancing wildly, pinning Du He under the wind of her palm.

  Lotus leaves seem to have nowhere to hide, but are like flat boats in the Yellow River, rocking without capsizing.

  Hong Zhaonu's palms came out one after another, and Du He retreated with a backward somersault.

  Two people faced each other, one pounced and the other retreated. Hong Fu's moves all fell short. The two were always more than two feet apart, although Hong Fu continuously launched a fierce attack, Du He had no room to counterattack, but in terms of lightness kung fu, there was a clear distinction between high and low.

  Hong Zhaonu was striking out with her fifty-six palms when Du He felt that the power of her palms was much weaker than before, and she no longer retreated. She launched a counterattack with "Wind God's Furious Howl".

  The wrath of the wind god, no one can stop it.

  Hong Niangzi had no choice but to force her way through.

  A loud slapping sound was heard as the two palms came into contact.

  Du He stood calmly in his original position, while the red-clothed woman retreated five steps before stabilizing her body. At this moment, her face was pale, sweating profusely, and panting heavily, with her physical strength almost exhausted. The outcome of the battle was clear at a glance.

  Li Weiling hurried forward to support Hong Miao Nu, whose beautiful big eyes were full of incredulity.

  Their loud voices had already startled Empress Longsun in the palace, and a room full of noblewomen stood packed in front of the hall.

  One by one, they all showed a look of horror.

  Hong Fu Nu's former prestige shook Chang'an, who would have thought that today she was defeated by a fifteen-year-old boy.

  Zhang's face was filled with worry and delight, never expecting that his own child would not only excel in writing and academics, but also be outstanding in martial arts.

  The Empress Changsun smiled and walked up, without pursuing anyone's fault, but just smiled and said: "Sister Chuchen came, why didn't you know to meet in advance, little sister has been waiting for a long time."

  Hong E saw Long Sun Empress and paid her respects, then turned to Du He with a smile: "Young man, your martial arts skills are not bad, I've lost!" She had a fiery temper and was also fiercely protective of those she cared about, but she was also someone who knew when to yield.

  Nor did he make excuses for his own defeat, but acknowledged it calmly.

  Du Heben had some reservations about Hong Fu's skills, but at this moment he secretly admired her and bowed his head saying: "I'm just taking advantage of my youthful energy for now, if there's a next time, the outcome is still uncertain."

  Hong Zan Nu smiled and said: "Lose is lose, no need to make excuses. You rely on your youthful energy, but I, an old woman, don't have rich experience? Moreover, your physique and footwork are much better than mine, even if there's a next time, I still won't be able to beat you!"

  Hong Bu Nu was right, having suffered a loss once, perhaps next time Hong Bu Nu would not be so exhausted and could face everything calmly. But she couldn't defeat Du He, even if her martial arts skills were better than Du He's, she still couldn't beat him.
