"Co, cheers!"
In a hotel located in Beijing, Qi Yong and others gathered around a round table, holding their wine glasses high, each face filled with an excited smile.
"Sect Leader Qi, congratulations!"
"Haha!" Qi Yong grinned and said, "It’s not just congratulations to , but to everyone present. In ti, we will surely surpass the Heavenly chanism Pavilion and Dragon Tiger Hall, and hold the entire Martial Arts world in our hands."
"If that day truly cos, it will be thanks to Sect Leader Qi. Without Sect Leader Qi’s brilliance, how could we have the opportunity to stand on equal footing with the Heavenly chanism Pavilion?"
"That’s right! With Sect Leader Qi’s capabilities, we will definitely be able to overpower the Heavenly chanism Pavilion. At that ti, the Dangyang Sect will flourish under Sect Leader Qi’s leadership."
Hearing everyone’s congratulations, Qi Yong’s smile was radiant. Hmph! The Dangyang Sect... the Dangyang Sect is rely his stepping stone. What he wanted was not just the Dangyang Sect.
"Sect Leader Qi, this ti we tricked the Heavenly chanism Pavilion and the Dragon Tiger Hall. Do you think they will cause us trouble?" soone asked worriedly.
Qi Yong nodded and said nonchalantly, "The Heavenly chanism Pavilion and the Dragon Tiger Hall surely won’t let this go. If I’m not mistaken, soone is probably finding ways to monitor us right now. However, you don’t need to worry. Since I dared to do this, I’ve naturally prepared. Moreover, everything is already arranged, and even if they want to investigate, they won’t find anything."
"That’s the best."
...
"Ling, has Ling Chen not co out yet?" Returning to the Beijing branch, Tong Zhentian headed straight to the backyard. Seeing Ling Gengqiu guarding outside the door, he asked a question.
"If he had co out, I wouldn’t need to stay here." Although guarding outside, Ling Gengqiu’s life was quite leisurely, with a small table in front of him, a few plates of braised dishes, and several bottles of Moutai.
"Co, have a drink with ." Ling Gengqiu took out an empty glass, placed it in front of Tong Zhentian, and filled it for him.
Tong Zhentian picked up the glass and drank it all in one go, involuntarily letting out a sigh.
"What, have you encountered anything troubling?"
"There was a problem at the Martial Arts Association. Today, a troublemaker appeared."
"Isn’t that a good thing?" Ling Gengqiu said, "You said before that there wasn’t any hope for the Martial Arts Association’s matter. Since there’s a troublemaker, it ans you still have a chance."
"I initially thought so too. Originally, this election should have been a landslide victory for the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, but that Qi Yong suddenly appeared and disrupted the arrangents of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion. I just checked on Qi Yong’s background; he is ambitious and capable. Moreover, he is now the head of the Dangyang Sect, holding a certain amount of resources. I worry..."
"Dangyang Sect?" Before Tong Zhentian finished speaking, Ling Gengqiu suddenly interrupted him, saying, "The Dangyang Sect still exists?"
"Why, do you have any connections with the Dangyang Sect?"
"Not really a connection. Many years ago, the Dangyang Sect was a large sect, and its status in the Martial Arts world was not weaker than the Heavenly chanism Pavilion. At that ti, the head of the Dangyang Sect was an extrely powerful master, ranked second in the world. His Luoyun Palm had defeated countless Martial Arts masters, and even the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion had to be wary of him. At that ti, the Dangyang Sect was the only Martial Arts force capable of competing with the Heavenly chanism Pavilion."
"Unfortunately, good tis did not last long. The head of the Dangyang Sect died unexpectedly, which was undoubtedly a disaster for the Dangyang Sect. As expected, within just two years, the Dangyang Sect was suppressed by the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, descending from a top-tier power to a third-rate force in the Martial Arts world. I thought they had long been extinct, but I didn’t expect them to be so resilient, surviving till now."
Tong Zhentian said with a face full of surprise, "Ling, I didn’t think you were so knowledgeable about the history of the Martial Arts world."
Ling Gengqiu chuckled and did not continue to delve into this topic. Just kidding, he personally went through the rise and fall of the Dangyang Sect; he couldn’t possibly tell Tong Zhentian that.
"The head of the Dangyang Sect never accepted any disciples because he died early, and his Luoyun Palm was thus lost. However, I’ve heard people say that the head of the Dangyang Sect hid his Luoyun Palm within the Dangyang Sect. Have you heard of this martial art in your years in the Martial Arts world?"
Tong Zhentian shook his head and said, "No."
"Is that so? In that case, the Luoyun Palm manual should still be within the Dangyang Sect." Ling Gengqiu said with a contemplative expression, blinking his eyes.
"Ling, it’s just a manual. Is there a need to take it so seriously?" Tong Zhentian said, "The Dragon Tiger Hall has collected countless kinds of manuals, and if you are interested, you can go to the library so other day."
Ling Gengqiu waved his hand and said, "You don’t understand. Luoyun Palm is not like any other martial art. Back in the day, the head of the Dangyang Sect, although a Heavenly List expert, there were many Heavenly List experts in the Martial Arts world stronger than him. However, with the power of the Luoyun Palm, except for the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly chanism Pavilion, almost no one was his match. Therefore, Luoyun Palm is an extrely powerful martial art. If used well, it can bridge the gap in strength."
"Really that formidable?" Tong Zhentian was taken aback.
"Of course!" Ling Gengqiu thought for a mont and asked, "Has the Dangyang Sect changed locations?"
"No. Why, are you interested in that Luoyun Palm?"
"Nonsense, who wouldn’t want to experience a powerful martial art? Besides, will you let such a skill be lost?" Speaking of which, Ling Gengqiu glanced at the room behind him and shook his head helplessly, saying, "It’s a pity that kid hasn’t co out yet. I’m not comfortable leaving now. Otherwise, I would surely visit the Dangyang Sect myself."
Regarding Ling Gengqiu’s idea, Tong Zhentian didn’t know what to say. With Ling Gengqiu’s strength, he could go wherever he wanted. The re Dangyang Sect was nothing to him.
"Ling, if you decide to go to the Dangyang Sect, could you do a favor and check on Qi Yong?"
"Alright, I’ll keep it in mind."
As they spoke, a peculiar noise suddenly ca from the room behind. Ling Gengqiu and Tong Zhentian, who were drinking, stood up abruptly and rushed toward the room.
As the door opened, a pungent sll assaulted their senses. Ling Gengqiu looked carefully and saw a raging fire at the bottom of a large wooden barrel, and the entire iron plate had turned an extrely bright red. Inside the large wooden barrel, steaming hot air kept rising, almost enveloping Ling Chen’s head.
Listening to the strange noises coming from the wooden barrel, Ling Gengqiu and Tong Zhentian exchanged a glance and imdiately rushed towards the wooden barrel.
Bam!
Ling Gengqiu struck with his palm, hitting the surface of the wooden barrel. Imdiately, the large wooden barrel flew off the iron plate. Tong Zhentian swiftly reacted, catching the large wooden barrel with both hands, then slowly placing it on the ground.
As the steam in the barrel gradually dissipated, Ling Chen’s body finally appeared in the sight of the two.
