1930. Chapter one thousand nine hundred thirty
"Damn it!"
Li Tianxiong suddenly slapped his palm on the coffee table next to him.
The coffee table remained motionless, but the spot where Li Tianxiong photographed it sank silently, and the wooden powder fell, eventually turning into a transparent palm print on both sides.
Li Tianxiong retracted his palm, his anger lessened slightly.
"Branch Master Xin, no matter who kills you, I will avenge you. Please rest in peace, your spirit in heaven." Li Tianxiong muttered silently in a voice that only he could hear.
Ten minutes later.
The elite disciples of Yihu Martial Arts School have gathered together. There are fifteen of them in total. Since the instructor and another instructor Qin lead the team, they all have cultivation levels above Anjin.
"Let's go."
After regaining his composure, Li Tianxiong said nothing and boarded the bus first.
When everyone got on the bus, the specially-made bus with bulletproof function immediately let out a deep and powerful roar and sped away into the distance.
After driving for more than half an hour, Yihu Martial Arts and his party finally arrived at the location of the Martial Arts League's branch in Bigang City.
The police who were originally maintaining order outside and the reporters who wanted to make hot news have left, but it didn't seem deserted at all, and it was even more lively.
"Master Xu, you actually came in person?"
"Such a big thing happened, how could I not come? But Master He, you came just in time. I remember that Bitao Martial Arts Gym is far away from here, right?"
"Haha, as soon as I received the news, I gathered people and set off. It didn't take too long..."
Xu Dezhao, the leader of the Tongbei Sect, and He Wei, the master of the Bitao Martial Arts School, were talking when they happened to see the bus from the Yihu Martial Arts School speeding towards them from a distance, so they both closed their mouths and stopped talking.
"Master Xu, Master He, we haven't seen each other for many days. I didn't expect that we would meet on such an occasion."
Li Tianxiong walked out of the car and bowed his hands to Xu Dezhao and He Wei respectively.
The two of them clasped their fists in return without being humble or overbearing.
"Master Li, are you here to express your condolences to Chief Xin and also pay a visit to Chief Lin?" Although Xu Dezhao was the oldest, he did not rely on his old age and asked with a smile.
"It's more than that."
Li Tianxiong said straightforwardly: "The attack on the martial arts alliance is a shame to the martial arts community in Bigang City. I hope to contribute to catching the murderer."
When Xu Dezhao heard this, an inexplicable light flashed in his eyes.
"Hero and I share the same views."
He Wei echoed from the side: "Branch Master Xin usually takes good care of us. Now that he has been harmed, how can we stand by and watch?"
Xu Dezhao said nothing and just nodded.
Li Tianxiong didn't pay attention to Xu Dezhao's reaction. He crossed his arms across his chest, looked around calmly, and then raised his eyebrows slightly: "We are the only ones here?"
Looking around, people from Tongbei Sect, Yihu Martial Arts School, and Bitao Martial Arts School are divided into three groups, separated by a certain distance from each other, allowing their respective leaders to talk and laugh.
"On the way here, I talked on the phone with Master Shen of Changfeng Martial Arts School."
He Wei said: "Master Shen asked me to apologize to Leader Lin on his behalf, because Changfeng Martial Arts Hall has encountered some trouble recently and he can't get away for the time being."
"Haha, this is the kind of person who wants to be a bitch and build a memorial arch at the same time."
Li Tianxiong was outspoken and showed no mercy even in front of so many people: "You are obviously timid and fearful, but you still want to find a high-sounding excuse for yourself. It's ridiculous."
He Wei's cheek muscles twitched and he decided to pretend not to hear.
"Everyone has his or her own ambitions, nothing can be forced upon oneself."
Xu Dezhao finally stopped keeping silent and said calmly: "Master Li, you should know very well that our Bigang City martial arts community is not monolithic, and the backgrounds of many sects and martial arts schools are not simple."
When Li Tianxiong heard this, he couldn't help but let out a long sigh.
As a local born and bred, how could he not be aware of the stubborn ills in the martial arts community in Bigang City?
To use an unflattering analogy, the martial arts community in Bigang City is like a sieve leaking air from all sides. Anyone can have a foothold in it. It seems stable and prosperous, but in fact it is chaotic.
When reality was mentioned, Li Tianxiong lost interest in continuing the conversation and remained silent with a straight face.
About two or three minutes later, a hoarse male voice suddenly came from nearby: "Master Xu, Master Li, Master He, I'm sorry to keep you waiting for so long."
Everyone followed the sound and saw Wei Tao, who was tall and burly, with his chest covered in bandages.
"There are too many things that we need to deal with, so I just received the news that you came to visit me. Please forgive me for any indifference..."
Wei Tao looked a little tired and haggard. As soon as he showed up, he bowed to each other and apologized repeatedly, with very thoughtful etiquette.
"It's okay, we understand."
Li Tianxiong knew Wei Tao best, so he interrupted the other without hesitation: "Is it convenient for you to let me in? I have no other purpose, I just want to help."
Xu Dezhao also asked immediately: "Deputy Chief Wei, I heard that Chief Xin was killed in an attack. I led my disciples to come here to express my condolences. Also, is Mr. Lin Zhong really here?"
"Your Excellency, the Alliance Leader is indeed inside, but..."
Wei Tao looked hesitant.
Xu Dezhao's heart skipped a beat and he quickly asked: "What's the matter?"
"But your Excellency, the Alliance Leader, is in a very bad mood at the moment, so I'm afraid I won't receive you."
Wei Tao told the truth.
Seeing that it had nothing to do with him, Xu Dezhao immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Please ask Deputy Chief Wei to pass the message on his behalf. If Chief Lin is unwilling to see the guest, then we will come to visit next time."
Wei Tao was about to agree to the other party, when suddenly his body trembled and he listened intently.
"Yes, yes, I understand."
He listened and nodded.
Xu Dezhao, Li Tianxiong, and He Wei looked at each other, and they all had some guesses in their hearts, but they were not sure.
After more than ten seconds, Wei Tao stopped listening, glanced at the faces of the three people in front of him, and extended his hand to say: "Master Xu, Master Li, Master He, our alliance leader invites you!"
After saying this, Wei Tao turned around and led the way without any hesitation or any unnecessary nonsense.
The three of them ordered their respective disciples to wait outside, while they followed Wei Tao behind and entered the slightly broken gate.
As they expected, the gate was in a mess, traces of fierce fighting could be seen everywhere, and there were even blood stains that had not been washed away in some places.
At the same time, they also felt some strange and powerful atmosphere.
One of the breaths was the most terrifying, far beyond the limit of what they could sense.
That is, it is like the abyss of the sea, which is unfathomable; and it is like Mount Ren, which is too high to be reached.
As they got closer and closer to that aura, the psychological pressure on the three of them became more and more intense. They followed Wei Tao intently, not daring to look around again.
