To put it bluntly, compared to Wen Chenyang, the so-called "adopted brother" who appeared out of nowhere, Ying Wushang, his cousin, is far closer to him, in terms of blood relationship.
Although the former Ying family was not considered the largest family in Nanyang in terms of size, if it were purely a comparison of force, no family in Nanyang could match it.
The Rotting Bone Kung Fu is a top martial art that combines concealment, lethality, and explosiveness. Once you take action, you will either die or be injured, unless the opponent's internal strength is much higher than your own.
Moreover, compared to the various martial arts in the martial arts world that coexist with momentum and power, the Rotting Bone Kung Fu operates silently, and is almost invincible when used for sneak attacks.
When he was in Miao territory, Ying Wushang once had a fight with Liang Benlang, the leader of the Beggar Clan. He took advantage of the extremely concealed nature of the Rotting Bone Kung Fu. It wasn't until the two sides fought head-on that the old leader Liang noticed him.
Martial arts and feet.
If Liang Benlang's internal strength hadn't been cultivated to its peak, Ying Wushang's palm could have caused half of his arm to be disabled.
Although the Rotting Bone Kung Fu is disliked by the world and is even called a demonic kung fu, its power is unquestionable, and because of this, the Ying family has a very important say in the land of Nanyang.
Although Le Zhili liked playing with swords, guns and sticks since she was a child, and also practiced martial arts, the Le family behind her was not a family in the traditional sense.
The Le family is not even considered a political force. They are similar to the Shangguan family and follow the path of merchants. Therefore, they are not strong in force and need strong support. The Ying family in Nanyang is simply the most suitable.
Candidate.
The Le family and the Ying family were related by marriage. One of Ying Wushang's aunts married the head of the Le family, and they had a daughter, the Shangguan's wife - Le Zhili.
When he was young, Ying Wushang had met his cousin, but he had not had much contact with this beautiful cousin who had outstanding appearance since childhood and attracted the attention of countless young men from Nanyang.
This is not because Ying Wushang has too high a vision and looks down on others. In fact, with his youthful spirit and beautiful woman, Ying Wushang was naturally tempted. The reason why he was not able to follow up on his approach was because the Ying family had no such plan.
The Le family is far less powerful than the Ying family. As the eldest son of the current head of the family, Ying Wushang will inevitably marry a woman who can give him strong support in his career. Therefore, the Ying family has never considered the Le family, which is just a merchant.
Ying Wushang had great ambitions since he was a child. He wanted to make a career, so he was not too obsessed with the love between his children. Therefore, after the Ying family showed their opposition, he immediately alienated his cousin.
What's funny is that the Le family didn't think so. They wanted to marry the daughter of the Ying family, and after tasting the benefits, they naturally set their sights on Ying Wushang.
At that time, Le Jia expressed her desire to get closer and closer, and Le Zhili was brought to Ying Wushang again and again, which caused the relationship between the two to deteriorate rapidly.
On one side, Ying Wushang couldn't bear to be disturbed, but on the other side, Le Zhili, who was treated as a tool of the family, also hated being treated like this. Ying Wushang naturally became a villain in her eyes.
These days of looking at each other with disgust lasted until the day when the tall tower of the Ying family suddenly collapsed. At that time, Ying Wushang was working outside and escaped by chance, but the rest of the Ying family were not so lucky.
In the land of Nanyang, the power of the Ying family was uprooted overnight. The direct lineage of the Ying family and several important branches were attacked by martial arts masters at almost the same time. The result was extremely tragic.
The bloodline of the Ying family had no chance of escaping, and the unimportant collateral clan members changed their names anonymously and hid in the countryside, daring not to show their faces again. However, the main branches of the direct lineage, except for Ying Wushang, no one was spared.
All died at the hands of Jianghu people.
In fact, Ying Wushang had been mentally prepared for this matter. Ever since he could remember, his family had been worried about the hostility from all parties in the world. This day had been expected by everyone, but what they didn't expect was that the other party
He will be so cruel and ruthless.
Many forces in the Jianghu were involved in the destruction of the Ying family, and there were countless individuals from the Jianghu who joined in the fun to support them. The number of these people was so large that even if Ying Wushang wanted revenge, he would not know who to start with.
.
And just when he was at a loss, another piece of news reached his ears. His aunt, who had married into the Le family many years ago, suddenly died of illness.
In less than half a year after the destruction of the Ying family, his poor aunt passed away. If there was no action by the Le family, he would not believe it.
But the anger that made Ying Wushang feel the most was that when faced with the death of his mother and the disaster of his grandfather's family, Le Zhili, who had half of the blood of Ying's family in her body, not only did not feel the slightest bit of sadness, but instead showed an almost indifferent attitude.
Not caring at all.
Even after that, Le Zhili got close to a bastard who kept talking about the many evil deeds of the Ying family and how they deserved to die. That's right, it was Wen Chenyang.
Le Zhili's actions made Ying Wushang's heart, which was almost completely numb due to pain, be filled with fire-like hatred again.
From that day on, in addition to his lifelong pursuit of getting ahead, Ying Wushang added another thing that he had to do no matter what, which was to recreate all the sufferings that the Ying family had suffered on Le Zhili.
.
Ying Wushang hoped that he could come to his dear cousin again when her family was ruined and everything was lost, and he could appreciate her expression at that time.
It was also because of this unknown past that Ying Wushang took the initiative to request orders and rushed over to save people after receiving the news from Dongdu in the capital.
If the Shangguan family was really accidentally trampled to death by Mr. Lu, Ying Wushang would have completely missed the opportunity to appreciate Le Zhili's despair, which would probably make him regret it for the rest of his life.
Looking at Le Zhili, who had appeared in his dreams countless times after being away for many years, Ying Wushang felt very good.
"Haha, as the saying goes, people go to higher places and water flows to lower places. This is what our family should be like. Cousin, isn't it the same for you?"
Ying Wushang smiled happily. He crossed his arms and looked at Le Zhili with frivolous eyes. He nodded and said, "No wonder my cousin looked down upon the corresponding family back then. It turns out that she had already taken a fancy to the wealth of the Shangguan family.
Hmm--you have good eyesight."
"Shut up!" Le Zhili was so angry that she was shaking all over. Ying Wushang's vicious words made her recall the most painful past event again, causing her hatred to surge.
Facing Le Zhili's cold eyes and anger, Ying Wushang didn't care at all. He said teasingly: "Speaking of which, my cousin actually has some friendship with Mr. Wu. Cousin, we are a family. Remember to go back.
Then let him say a nice word for me in front of your lord."
"You - shameless!"
Le Zhili could no longer suppress her anger. In the shocked eyes of everyone, she stabbed Ying Wushang with her sword in anger.
