Chapter 197 The Past of Xihu.

In order to overcome the harsh natural living environment, the nomadic people outside the Great Wall developed a folk custom of being brave and courageous and respecting the strong.

For example, the original country similar to "Turkic" was divided into many tribes of different sizes, but no matter who the Khan was, they all worshipped Yelu Xuan as a god and regarded him as the highest heroic leader!

Because they had never seen a person with such great power!
The wind and snow all over the sky were like his servants, and the sky above the dome was no longer out of reach!

A similar situation also occurred within the Tiekele tribe, and the person who received this honor was none other than Qu Han, who was known as the Flying Eagle!
six years ago.

The Tiekele tribe is a relatively weak tribe. In order to survive, the young man Qu Han became a horse thief, wandering around and looting!
Qu Han has a strong sense of territory. He will never cross the border to other places except his own territory, because this is his hometown and the place he is most familiar with. Because of this, in the eyes of outsiders, Qu Kang is rampant on the grassland!

But today, he finally met his nemesis.

There was actually a master hiding in the intercepted caravan, hiding his face and blending in with them.

The wind carrying sand was lifted by the horse's hooves, revealing the curtain hanging on his head, so that people could see his true appearance. His appearance was somewhat similar to that of the monks in ancient India. His bald head was unforgettable whether in the Central Plains or in this Western Hu desert.

His martial arts skills are unfathomable, but it is difficult to judge his age from his appearance. He has the characteristics of old, young and young at the same time. It is truly amazing!
The monk single-handedly wiped out over a hundred horse bandits. His skills were so high that they reached an extraordinary and horrifying level!

"What kind of monster is this? Could it be that he is the messenger sent by the Eternal Heaven to the lower world?"

Qu Han lay on the ground, wiped the grass debris from the corner of his mouth, and stared at the god in front of him with wide eyes.

Qu Han was lucky enough to be injured but not killed. Seeing this man still ruthlessly slaughtering his former subordinates and brothers, his fear of the monk in front of him gradually turned into admiration.
Regardless of his injuries, Qu Han followed the monk for seven days and seven nights, begging him to accept him as his disciple.

Even when he was almost exhausted and collapsed, Qu Han refused to give up. He continued to crawl and follow the man for help. His will was terrifying!
"This person has a strong mind and a solid foundation. It would be a great thing if I could recruit him to serve me!"

The monk had his back to the crawling Qu Han, and did not look back, but it seemed that he could see everything that was happening behind him.

The monk was finally moved by Qu Han's sincerity and agreed to teach him a method of practicing true qi, but he had to swear to work for him all his life.

The true Qi of this monk is very different from the martial arts in the Central Plains. It focuses on cultivating the acupoints in the human body that serve as the hubs of the meridians and the source of the true Qi. It is extremely difficult!
If this skill is not assisted by a teacher, even if someone has obtained it, they would not dare to practice it easily. If they practice it carelessly, they may break their meridians and explode before they can achieve success!
Seeing that Qu Han agreed to his request, the monk found a slope away from the wind and dug a big hole. Then he entered the hole and sat cross-legged, with his right hand raised high and his left hand hanging low. When his palms were facing each other, there was a visible true energy stirring the space, which appeared in his two palms and kept circling.

"If you can master this technique, your Qi will be endless and powerful!"

The two of them stayed here for several months. Qu Han lived in seclusion and practiced hard. With his extraordinary talent, he finally succeeded in practicing eight acupoints in the winter of that year and was promoted to the ninth level!
Qu Han was not satisfied with this. With his ability, it might take him several years or even more than ten years to practice one more acupoint, but this meant that he still had the possibility to go further!

Just when he wanted to continue living like this, the monk stopped him.

"You grew up in this area, do you have any relatives at home? Now that I have taught you the skills, it is time for you to leave this place."

"Teacher, I am from the Tiekele tribe here. I have a wife and children at home. I was forced to make a living, so I concealed my identity and claimed to be robbing for the Eagle. All the gains, except for the supplies needed by the team, were returned to the tribe."

The monk nodded and said, "It may take a long time to come back. Let's go to the tribe where your family is first. Come with me after we arrange everything as soon as possible!" Qu Han nodded and agreed, then took the monk back to the Tiekele tribe. However, all this became the beginning of Qu Han's tragedy.

The two of them had no horses, and when a figure just appeared in Qu Han's sight, the monk walking beside him moved. His movements were as fast as lightning, and his methods were even more brutal and cruel than when the two of them first met. He no longer had the easy-going nature of the past!
Only half an hour had passed, and the Tiekele tribe had become part of Xihu's history, as if this tribe had never existed.

Even Qu Han's wife and son could not escape this disaster!
He tried to resist, he tried to struggle, and after seeing his wife and son being killed, he even tried to commit suicide, but the monks failed to do so.

"Okay, now that the problem has been solved, we can travel and do things with peace of mind."

Seeing Qu Han still standing there with a dull look in his eyes, the monk couldn't help but narrow his eyes slightly. Two streams of cold and hurtful true qi burst out of his body and hit Qu Han's knees, causing him to kneel on the ground involuntarily, letting out a roar that was not like a human shout.

It hurts, it hurts too much!
"Do you still remember your promise to me? Now is the time for you to repay me!" He grabbed one of Qu Han's legs and dragged him to the tribe's domesticated horse like dragging a dead dog, and threw him on the horse's back. The monk himself rode on another horse and said, "Look at what you have done! They are just women and children. With your current cultivation, when you are in power, what kind of women will you not have? You used to be a horse bandit, so you must not lose your courage!"

The monk received only lifeless silence in response.

"If your cultivation exceeds mine, you can take revenge on me at any time. Why, you don't want revenge?" Seeing Qu Han still like this, the monk showed a bloodthirsty smile and said provocatively: "I really look forward to that day!"

Qu Han gradually became angry. Driven by hatred, he sat up straight on the horse's back and said expressionlessly: "Master, what you are teaching me is true. May I ask what kind of martial arts you used before? If you have time, please teach me!"

"Yes, let's go!"

The two men disappeared on the blood-stained grassland, and the tragic scene behind them would only be gradually buried with the passage of time.

This is a good deal for the wild wolves in this area.
This monk was none other than Yelu Xuan, the new master who was now famous all over the world and shocked all the nations. And Qu Han was none other than his second disciple.

In the following years, Qu Han followed Yelu Xuan and joined a force, constantly devouring the surrounding tribes to grow stronger. This led to the miraculous rise of the Great Khan of Western Hu.

During the fighting over the years, Qu Han displayed terrifying cruelty, and all those who were hostile to him were torn to pieces like rags. His reputation for cruelty was also well-known and respected in the army.

A few years later, when Qu Han's martial arts reached his peak, his self-confidence also reached its peak. He finally thought of challenging Yelu Xuan again, replacing him, and then killing him!

But the fight between the two of them later decided the winner in an instant.

It was not until this day that Qu Han understood what the Grandmaster realm was.

Yelu Xuan did not kill him. He remained as easy-going as usual and did not even hide his martial arts skills.

When time returns to the story line, Xihu is ready for war again.
