On that day.
All the major forces in Lin’an City received invitation cards from Jiang Yuan.
…
At the Divine Power Martial Arts Studio.
A seemingly obese, yet extraordinarily robust middle-aged man roared in anger as he looked at the invitation in his hands.
“You must attend, this snot-nosed brat! What a pompous attitude!”
“Master, you shouldn’t get angry over such insolence from this naive child. It’s not worth ruining your health.”
“That’s right, Master! Even when Jiang Zhenyuan was alive, he didn’t have the right to talk to you like that. This Jiang Yuan doesn’t know the heights of the sky and the depths of the earth. Let’s see where he can put his face if no one shows up three days later!”
Two disciples beside him tried to appease him.
“An old man? Am I old?”
“Not old! Not at all! How could the master be old? You’re just like the sun at noon, at its peak.”
At this time, the middle-aged man pondered as he stroked his beard, “He wants me to be there, so I’ll give him face and take a trip to the Zhenyuan Escort Agency. However, it won’t be three days from now. It will be at dawn tonight. I hope he doesn’t regret it then.”
“Master, you intend to…?”
“Your guess is correct. I want Jiang Zhenyuan’s unique skill, the Wind Thunder Sword Technique.”
His eyes were filled with desire at this moment. “Do you know why Jiang Zhenyuan was so strong even though we were both at the eighth level of the body forging realm?”
“Master, are you saying it’s because of the Wind Thunder Sword Technique?”
“That’s right! It’s all because of the Wind Thunder Sword Technique, which is an unmatched sword technique.”
His eyes were burning, “The origins of the Wind Thunder Sword Technique are known to a few. I happen to be one of them. It was given to him by an Immortal lady. As far as the degree of mystery goes, it far supersedes my Divine Power Stick Technique.”
The two people’s faces were full of astonishment, “An Immortal lady? Could it be the legendary Immortal?”
The middle-aged man nodded: “Exactly!”
He continued, “You don’t know this, but he almost ascended to the heavens because of that lady. In his youth, he was extremely handsome, which made him the heartthrob of all the ladies in Lin’an City. They thought about him day and night”
“Even that immortal lady almost ended up marrying him.”
The two disciples inhaled sharply.
“No wonder Jiang Zhenyuan was so strong! He was literally living off a woman!”
Just then, the middle-aged man suddenly asked, “By the way, have either of you seen your junior disciple return?”
“No!” Both of them shook their heads unanimously.
“Then this is strange! Jiang Yuan and his people have all returned safely. Where could your junior brother have gone off to?”
He said with a puzzled look.
“Master… do you think there’s a chance that…”
He shook his head, “It’s not likely! Your junior brother is skilled at the six-level body forging realm, just one step away from the seventh level of the blood-exchange realm, he wouldn’t have attracted fatal trouble unless he provoked Gu Mo!”
Then he continued: “Never mind! Forget about him for now. The priority now is to obtain the Wind Thunder Sword Technique. Maybe there’s still a slim chance I can make a breakthrough.”
…
Night fell.
Jiang Yuan was sitting in meditation in his bedroom.
He was concentrating on circulating qi and blood, refining the residual medicinal power in his body.
At this moment, everything was silent and his mind was serene.
Feeling the slight changes in his marrow, Jiang Yuan was slightly surprised.
The current progress was even faster than he had expected.
Originally, he thought he would need three to five days more, but judging from the current situation.
In at most two days, he will be able to successfully complete marrow refining and then move on to the seventh stage of the Body Forging Realm to start blood transformation.
Just then.
Jiang Yuan slowly opened his eyes, “Ignorant fool!”
Since his physique began to improve, all his organs had undergone qualitative changes, and his five senses had become far more acute than ordinary people.
At this moment, he was able to hear the faintest sounds in the courtyard.
He pushed the bedroom door open, somewhat annoyed. He had been immersed in the pleasure of his increasing strength.
Every minute, every second, he could physically feel his marrow refining process advancing.
Being suddenly interrupted, how could he not be filled with anger?
Gu Mo, holding a long sword, also came into Jiang Yuan’s line of sight.
“Young Master!”
Jiang Yuan slightly nodded, looked towards the distant artificial hill, and said, “Come out! Since you’re here, why hide in front of a junior? Aren’t you ashamed?”
“Smart kid, quite arrogant. Even your father wasn’t this arrogant in front of me.”
A middle-aged man with his hands behind his back came out from behind the artificial hill.
His face was calm and composed!
At this moment, he was somewhat puzzled in his heart. From the looks of it, he was spotted by this kid as soon as he entered the Zhenyuan Escort Agency.
But how could that be possible?
It was utterly unreasonable!
Such a long distance and he was just in the bedroom then, how could he have discovered him?
Thinking of this, he smiled smugly.
There was no rush, once he captures him, he can slowly extract the truth.
At this time, his two disciples also slowly emerged from behind him.
[Name]: Li Hao
[Realm]: The Eighth Stage of the Body Forging Realm
[Innate Fate]: Skilled in Stick Technique (White) Gluttonous Belly (White) Robust Skeleton (White)
[Skilled in Stick Technique]: Possesses decent talent in stick techniques.
[Gluttonous Belly]: Naturally possessing a large appetite and eating capacity, digestion is also much faster than that of ordinary people.
[Robust Skeleton]: Naturally having a sturdier and tougher skeleton than that of ordinary people.
Behind him, Jiang Yuan glanced at the two. Both were at the seventh stage of the body forging realm.
As for their innate fate, both were quite ordinary. Clearly, without a great opportunity, their future achievements will be limited.
“Li Hao, the head of the Divine Power Martial Academy?”
“Correct! It’s me!” Li Hao laughed.
“So, you’re here today to pay respects to my father?”
At these words from Jiang Yuan, one of the disciples behind him suddenly laughed, “Jiang Yuan! should we call you foolish or naïve?”
The other one laughed, “I think he’s both foolish and naive! Hand over your family’s Wind Thunder Sword Technique obediently, and you might take less beating.”
Jiang Yuan shook his head, “Want the Wind Thunder Sword Technique? Ridiculous!”
“Gu Mo, make a move!”
“Yes, Young Master!”
As the words fell.
Whirr!
A clear sword roar resounded.
“Heh, so that’s who you’re counting on? Gu Mo’s quite impressive, but it’s a pity you’re dealing with me. Allow me to destroy your hope personally.”
Li Hao said, “Senior Wu, Wu, both of you, go together! Today is the time to test your skills. Gu Mo can serve as your stepping stone, don’t embarrass me!”
“Yes, Master!”
Both replied in unison. Holding a Divine Power stick, they immediately rushed towards Gu Mo.
At that moment.
Li Hao suddenly felt a formidable aura emanating from Gu Mo. His eyes instantly became frosty.
“Something’s not right! Both of you, retreat immediately!”
As he spoke, he had already drawn out the Divine Power stick from his back and charged forward.
The next moment.
“Ahh!”
Two cries of panic sounded from ahead.
So powerful!
Li Hao’s pupils dilated, and he became incredibly anxious.
No wonder Jiang Yuan was so arrogant, the real terror of Gu Mo lies in his swordsmanship.
In his eyes, Gu Mo’s swordsmanship was unparalleled in the whole of Lin’an City!
The intense force from the sword gave him the chills!
