Chapter 416 Turn Enemies into Friends

Tan Mazi wished he could have attacked Ma Lu in the first round, but due to the rules, he had to wait a little longer.

When it was Ma Lu's turn to draw cards, he drew another Lightfoot Card — Wandering Shadow under the Moon.

Delicate Cloud Chasing Moon Skill, Seventh Form. It costs nine points of True Qi to create a Shadow Card of any card in hand, which has the same effect as the original, but can only exist within the current round. If it is not played this round, it will disappear at the beginning of the next round.

Seeing this description, Ma Lu was startled again.

Is this... a cloning effect?

This Qinggong seems a bit too powerful, it appears to be on the same level as the Divine Technique, Innate Pure Yang Palm.

Although the cost of nine points of True Qi is not small, it's not the fault of the Delicate Cloud Chasing Moon Skill, but rather Ma Lu's own issue.

In fact, this Qinggong had been practiced to the realm of Great Perfection by Xu Deputy Gate Master, and the consumption of True Qi had been controlled to a very low range.

Like the earlier targeted search using Delicate Clouds Trickery, which only required two points of True Qi.

The reason why Wandering Shadow under the Moon requires nine points of True Qi is simply because the effect of this card is too powerful.

If Ma Lu could obtain a powerful Internal Cultivation Method in the future and solve his True Qi problem, he could use Wandering Shadow under the Moon to clone the moves of Innate Pure Yang Palm and inflict double the damage in a single round.

Absolutely earth-shattering.

"What's the matter, little swindler, got scared?"

Seeing Ma Lu standing still and not playing his card, Tan Mazi couldn't help but jeer.

"Too bad it's too late to beg for mercy now. You've impersonated Xu Deputy Gate Master's disciple and are holding Xu Deputy Gate Master's corpse hostage. Today, the only way you're leaving here is horizontally. Hurry up and play your card, I can't wait to flatten your head."@@@@

"You talk too much."

said Ma Lu, who first played a Minor Eternal Spring Technique card, gaining six points of True Qi, then played the previously drawn Delicate Clouds Trickery, spending two points of True Qi to activate its effect.

Seeing this, including Yit and others, no one doubted Ma Lu's identity anymore, and afterward, Tan Mazi immediately applied to stop the fight.

As soon as the card game was over, Tan Mazi immediately threw away his Copper Hammer, swung his palm from side to side, and gave himself several hard slaps.

He didn't hold back at all. After the slaps, his face swelled up and he even spat out a blood-stained broken tooth from his mouth.

"I'm sorry, I didn't realize you truly were the disciple of Xu Deputy Gate Master. Xu Deputy has shown me great kindness, yet here I was, fighting with his disciple, I truly deserve to die!"

Ma Lu originally didn't have a good impression of this dwarf, who had just eagerly kept calling him a 'little swindler'.

Even if it were true, was there a need to shout so loudly?

However, seeing Tan Mazi admit his mistake so quickly and with such sincerity, Ma Lu also cooled off, stepped forward, and held Tan Mazi's hand.

"This matter is not Brother Tan's fault. I didn't expect that a pot of wine could lead to Xu Deputy's complete trust. If I were Brother Tan, I would definitely not believe it at first either.

"Moreover, I saw my master's body and indeed acted too impulsively, rushing forward, which led Brother Tan to misunderstand."

Tan Mazi was both ashamed and excited; he said "good" three times in a row before adding, "Xu Deputy Master has a successor now!! By the way, I haven't asked for your name yet."

"My name is Ma Lu." Ma Lu said, looking at Yit, "Brother Yit, I've heard that there are many heroes in the Heavenly Dragon Sect, and I admire them. I borrowed Young Master Liu's identity for a bit, which also troubled you."

The Barbarian Big Man waved his hand, "It's no bother, no bother, this mistake was initially my fault for recognizing the wrong person. But if not for this, we wouldn't have met the new disciple of Xu Deputy Master."

He paused and then sighed, "It's just a pity that the Heavenly Dragon Sect is currently facing a great crisis; otherwise, I would have invited Little Brother Ma to Drunken Goose Tower for a drink. As for now... I better arrange to have someone escort you out of Yuchang County as soon as possible."

Ma Lu shook his head, "I don't plan to leave here yet."

Tan Mazi instantly became anxious upon hearing that, "This is a matter between the Heavenly Dragon Sect and the Beggars' Sect; it has nothing to do with you, Brother Ma. You are Xu Deputy's only disciple, there's no need for you to wade into these muddy waters!"

"But Xu Deputy bestowed upon me the gift of his teachings; now that he has been harmed by villains, how can I ignore this matter?" Ma Lu said sternly.

"I have another friend who is the Divine Detective of the Iron Clothes Sect. I want to ask her to investigate Xu Deputy Gate Master's death."
