Chapter 821: Chapter 823: Tit for Tat
Fortunately, Ouyang Die wasn’t injured, and those people’s intentions were very clear—they just wanted to disrupt their order.
Ouyang Die still felt a little afraid inside. If those people really wanted to do sothing to them, they wouldn’t have had a chance to fight back.
For the first ti, Ouyang Die felt the gap between being an ordinary person and an Ancient Martial Artist.
Chu Ge didn’t know what Ouyang Die was thinking. He took her back to the villa, where Jian Chunqiu had just returned as well.
He saw Chu Ge, waved at him, and said, “I was just looking for you, co over for a mont.”
Seeing this, Ouyang Die sensibly went upstairs.
After Ouyang Die left, Chu Ge sat opposite Jian Chunqiu, looking at him curiously, and asked, “What’s up?”
Why so secretive.
Jian Chunqiu handed a docunt on the table to Chu Ge and said, “Take a look first.”
Chu Ge gave him a puzzled look, then picked up the docunt from the table and started reading. The more he read, the more shocked he beca.
“What’s going on here?”
The docunt detailed Dragon Group’s plan to deal with their Ancient Martial Arts.
“Every year at the summit, Dragon Group makes so obstructive moves. Because this year’s summit is hosted by the Nangong Family, we all thought Dragon Group would be more restrained. Moreover, because of so internal issues within our Ancient Martial Arts community, the advance notification about the summit’s ti was only known to insiders, outsiders had no idea. But unexpectedly, Dragon Group managed to infiltrate and got hold of our exact timing.”
Jian Chunqiu continued, getting angrier as he spoke. “The reason why Ancient Martial Arts is not recognized is that organizations like Dragon Group keep discrediting it.”
Chu Ge was a bit curious. He waved the docunt and asked, “Where did this docunt co from?”
Jian Chunqiu explained, “To counter Dragon Group’s constant harassnt, all our major Sects ca up with the idea of infiltrating the enemy, and these materials were brought back by our spies.”
“Is the information reliable?”
Chu Ge asked again.
“The information is absolutely reliable, and their actions already began last night.”
Chu Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, suspiciously looking at Jian Chunqiu, “Started last night?”
But they hadn’t heard anything during today’s eting.
Jian Chunqiu nodded, “Dragon Group set up traps on the arena for our martial arts tournant. If we didn’t have insiders, sothing big might have happened tomorrow.”
“So will tomorrow’s tournant still go on as planned?” This was Chu Ge’s biggest concern.
Tomorrow, he was supposed to face off against Yang Kun in an open and fair match—sothing he had always hoped for.
Jian Chunqiu shook his head, “That’s not confird yet, but the Nangong Family is already negotiating.”
Chu Ge was puzzled, “The Nangong Family negotiating? With Dragon Group?”
Jian Chunqiu affird and, ntioning the Nangong Family, seed to rember sothing and looked at Chu Ge with a smile, saying, “You weren’t there, but I’ve never seen Man Sha so fierce.”
Fierce?
Chu Ge looked speechlessly at Jian Chunqiu. What kind of adjective was that?
How could Nangong Man Sha and the word ‘fierce’ be connected?
However, in his mind, Nangong Man Sha had always been enthusiastic and sociable. In such situations, she was indeed quite adept.
“But, speaking of which, I find that Mu Bingtong and Man Sha are both strong won; one is cold and the other is warm. One is good at socializing, and the other is good at managing internal affairs. You’ve got a good eye, kid,” Jian Chunqiu teased.
Chu Ge coughed lightly, trying to cover his embarrassnt, “Uncle Jian, you’re overthinking it. Miss Manga and I are just friends, and Bingtong is also good at socializing. She’s just a bit cold, so it doesn’t show as much.”
Chu Ge explained on behalf of Mu Bingtong.
Of course, Jian Chunqiu knew Mu Bingtong was good at socializing; otherwise, how could she manage such a big corporate group?
What he ant by sociable was handling relationships between n with ease. But when it ca to dealing with relationships among n, Mu Bingtong seed weaker, given her personality. n, after all, preferred soone as passionate as Nangong Man Sha.
Chu Ge cleared his throat to remind him, “Uncle Jian, you’re getting off-topic.”
Weren’t they discussing Dragon Group? How did it shift to Mu Bingtong and Nangong Man Sha?
He was really worried about whether they’d start talking about dual cultivation with him next.
Jian Chunqiu knew Chu Ge didn’t want to discuss this, so he didn’t plan to continue.
After all, what ca next was the main point.
“If tomorrow’s tournant is canceled, don’t go looking for Yang Kun for a duel,” Jian Chunqiu suddenly reminded.
Chu Ge looked at Jian Chunqiu in confusion, “When the ti cos, it’ll be Yang Kun who wants a duel, not .”
Yang Kun had long disliked him, and with such a good opportunity, how could he let it slip?
However, for Chu Ge, he wasn’t afraid at all.
“Don’t worry about Yang Kun; the Sunflower Sect will remind him. With such great external threats, your personal grudges should be set aside for now,” Jian Chunqiu asserted.
Chu Ge nodded. He understood this well.
“By the way, did you know that it’s not just Dragon Group trying to disrupt the summit, but even the Shadow Assassin Organization of the Japanese Invaders has arrived?”
Jian Chunqiu was startled, then shook his head. “I haven’t heard about this.”
“Today, Miss Ouyang was harassed by those Shadow Assassins in a café. Their intentions were clear—not to harm, but to cause panic.”
Jian Chunqiu was silent for a mont before speaking, “This isn’t their usual style.”
Chu Ge nodded, “I agree; it’s not their usual style.”
Jian Chunqiu took a deep breath and helplessly shook his head, “What concerns most now is that they have infiltrators among our ranks. If that’s the case, no matter how we guard our plans, they’ll be leaked.”
“Could it be that these Shadow Assassins are in contact with Dragon Group?” Chu Ge proposed a bold idea.
Jian Chunqiu shook his head, “No, even though Dragon Group is always targeting our Ancient Martial Sect, in the world of martial arts, they do have principles. They wouldn’t collude with foreign forces.”
Chu Ge couldn’t help but chuckle, “This Dragon Group is quite interesting.”
“Actually, there wasn’t a Dragon Group in the beginning. It all started when martial arts cultivation thods first erged and were divided into two groups. Both groups had significant conflicts and differences in both ntal thods and martial arts, each believing they were right, leading to constant confrontations.”
