Translator: 549690339
After sharing some of his thoughts with Lu Yuan, Sun Siwen’s mood improved a lot. After chatting for a while, he bid farewell and returned home.
Although he felt like his luck was at its peak right now.
But as the saying goes, opportunities always favor those who are prepared.
Without enough strength, even if you stand at the doorway of opportunities, you won’t be able to fly.
Reading books and reviewing exam topics must continue as usual. Sun Siwen went back home and embarked on a new round of diligent studies.
He decided to review all the exam questions from the past three years. He also planned to read two or three times all the articles that the main examiners had previously written.
Mr. Sun didn’t believe that with so much preparation and such great luck, he would fail to pass the juren examination.
After sending Mr. Sun away, Lu Yuan didn’t wander around. Instead, he stayed at home practicing martial arts.
Since he discovered his longevity cheat, he dramatically increased the time spent on cultivation, and his inner strength grew rapidly. He could feel the enhancement of his strength almost every moment.
This feeling was intoxicating.
So after minor hesitation, he happily decided to extend his inner strength training time by another “hour,” making it ten hours a day.
Heh!
“Did you expect that not only do I have a cheat, but I also work twice as hard? I’m going to outcompete all you geniuses. ” Sometimes Lu Yuan would think this to himself, and then he’d practice his inner strength cultivation even more diligently.
In such a dangerous world, it was truly unsettling to lack strength.
Time flew, and the blistering summer of June arrived quickly.
The intense heat wave baked the earth, making people feel as if they were about to be cooked, and their hearts also became restless.
This was destined to be an unsettled month.
Indeed it was.
Just when Luling City was dealing with another wave of Black Wind Gang members, some news that shocked the Jianghu spread out.
Yin Huixuan, the Sect Leader of the Liuyang Sect and Martial Arts Leader of Yuzhang Prefecture, officially decided to travel to South Sea Prefecture at the beginning of the month to visit fellow martial artists of Nanhai Wulin.
The news sparked a sensation amongst the martial arts world in both prefectures.
Everyone knew that the Sect Leader of Liuyang Sect, Yin Huixuan, was not really going to South Sea Prefecture to visit “fellow Daoists,” as claimed.
The chaos caused by the Black Wind Gang in Luling Prefecture, after brewing for several months, had already spread.
All 28 prefectures in the surrounding four counties were aware that there’s certainly some Jianghu force from South Sea Prefecture behind this gang.
Seeing that the chaos caused by the Black Wind Gang was escalating, with these bandits being inexhaustible and indestructible.
In Luling Prefecture, every time a group of bandits was eliminated, a new gang would soon emerge. These bandits seemed to produce themselves endlessly like leeks being cut and regrowing, with each new growth not any weaker.
By now, the Black Wind Gang had become a wound on their body, continuously draining the blood from Yuzhang Martial Art World.
There were definitely people supporting the Black Wind Gang from behind, and it’s the Jianghu forces in South Sea Prefecture. They aimed to use these bandits to weaken and infiltrate Yuzhang Martial Art World, thus expanding their Ctranot-h
Others were attacking right at their doorstep. Facing such a situation, the Liuyang Sect, as the leader of Yuzhang Martial Art World, naturally could not ignore it.
Therefore, the Sect Leader of the Liuyang Sect, Yin Huixuan, stepped forward and visited the South Sea Prefecture Martial arts community.
The aim of this Sect Leader was clear.
You can’t get rid of the Black Wind Gang no matter how hard you try, can you?
If that’s the case, I don’t bother dealing with these small fries anymore.
I’m going straight to your doorstep now, to confront the forces behind you, defeating them one by one. Without any support, the Black Wind Gang will naturally quiet down.
Lo and behold, the first stop of Sect Leader Yin Huixuan of the Liuyang Sect in the south was the famous sect of the Nanhai martial arts world, the Nanhai Sect, which occupied the South Sea Prefecture.
This sect monopolized the maritime trade of South Sea Prefecture, engaged in business across the four seas, and made an incalculable amount of money from sea trade every year.
With money comes influence.
With the money earned from business, the Nanhai Sect claimed to have tens of thousands of helpers spread across the four seas. Every boat at sea had a disciple of the Nanhai Sect on board.
Their glorious prestige was famous across the world.
Yin Huixuan chose such a marine giant for his first stop, which showed his high ambitions and enormous momentum, as if he did not put the Nanhai Wulin in his eyes at all.
But if you think about it, as the leader of Yuzhang Martial Art World, he indeed has the qualifications and strength.
When Yin Huixuan challenged the Nanhai Sect and invited Sect Leader Qiu Guanbai to a sword fight on the tenth day of June, it attracted the attention of all martial artists from Yue Country River to the Left of Lingnan.
C countless martial arts leaders and giants in Jianghu, hearing the news, rushed to the Nanhai Sect, wanting to witness this major event in the martial arts world.
As for ordinary martial artists and disciples of various sects, they flocked to the Nanhai Sect, spontaneously heading there to see this event.
A grand event of Yue Country martial arts world thus began.
In Plum Flower Town, inside the tavern.
“Recently, the martial artists in the outside world have been much less. And there’s also much less news about the Black Wind Gang.” Lu Yuan was drinking fine wine on his usual spot, listening to the discussions in the main hall and started to ponder.
Over the past few months, he had become accustomed to hearing every day about where and when the Black Wind Gang would kill someone, and where law enforcement from the government and martial arts heroes would combat a major criminal the next day..
