Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

92: Everyone, Long has something to ask forAn Lan’s expression changed slightly upon hearing this. She didn’t know why, but she actually felt a sense of oppression from Qin Jiang.

However, she adjusted in an instant, covering her mouth and chuckling, ”Young Master Qin may not know, but I am originally from Ningan City. It’s just that I was transferred to Black Mountain City before.

If Young Master has free time, you can come to Fengyi Pavilion to have fun. At that time, I will personally select a few good girls for Young Master.”

”Haha, that’s not necessary. Hmm? Who is this?”

Qin Jiang’s gaze fell on the young man next to An Lan. Just now, he noticed that this guy’s aura was a bit unstable, as if he recognized him?

Moreover, looking at his Face, he actually bore some resemblance to An Lan?

”I am Si Liuyun of the Si Family.” The young man slightly cupped his hands, his manners impeccable.

Qin Jiang raised an eyebrow, the Si Family? One of the three great prominent families?

Although they were usually low-key, they were adept at social maneuvering and had good relationships with many prominent families, enjoying a greater reputation in Ningan than the Wang Family and Long Family.

Low-key? He couldn’t help but smile.

In his opinion, this was merely a disguise. He just didn’t know what intentions they harbored.

”Qin Jiang,” he said with a smile.

After speaking, he glanced around, as some people seemed to have recognized him, and immediately said, ”If I have free time in the future, you can come to Cloud Crane Courtyard in the Eastern Market for a chat. I have other matters, so I’ll take my leave first.”

”Naturally, I will definitely pay a visit,” Si Liuyun said with a smile, cupping his hands.

After Qin Jiang left, he looked at An Lan, ”Who is this Qin Jiang?”

He had been out meeting with people from Jin Yu Pavilion and had just returned, so he didn’t know Qin Jiang’s identity yet.

An Lan, on the other hand, looked at Qin Jiang’s retreating figure with a meaningful gaze, ”He’s probably a lucky fellow, who likely used Red Tiger Gang’s quota to join Bronze Bell Sect.”

Si Liuyun remained silent upon hearing this. A lucky fellow?

Forget it, no matter what, it’s better to find a time to deal with him.

This guy was actually foolish enough to reveal his residence; he must be brainless.

Thump, thump, thump!

Footsteps came from outside the courtyard, gradually approaching. Long Daosheng led a group of people in.

The moment they entered, everyone in the courtyard stood up or stopped to look from afar.

These people, backed by prominent families or influential clans, were all top figures in Ningan.

It could be said that if these people united, they would be the heaven of Ningan! Apart from a select few, no one could resist their will!

This was the strength of local families with hundreds of years of Legacy!

”Everyone, no need to be polite! Your presence today gives me Face, and I will never forget it! Please make yourselves at home! The apprenticeship ceremony will begin shortly!” Long Daosheng said with a cupped-fist salute and a smile.

After speaking, he looked at the representatives of each Family behind him, ”Everyone, I’ll go prepare first. There’s no need for us to exchange pleasantries; just be yourselves.”

”Family Head Long is too kind.”

”Grand Elder is too kind.”

After Long Daosheng left, a man in his fifties among the crowd walked towards Si Liuyun.

”Liuyun, how did the discussion go?”

With a wave of his hand, he asked, his voice confined to the three of them.

”No problem, it’s just that they seem a bit urgent,” Si Liuyun said.

Si Changyuan nodded, ”That’s normal. No one expected the Long Family to send Long Ye to deal with the strange incident; it was a miscalculation.”

Jin Yu Pavilion had originally planned to let this strange mist flow downstream, slowly engulfing several surrounding counties, but they didn’t expect the Long Family to send out Long Ye right from the start.

This caused the strange mist, which had not yet formed a downstream momentum, to be directly intercepted and destroyed, resulting in only about forty percent of the original plan being completed.

Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but feel annoyed. The Long Family was truly idle. He had originally thought that at most, Bronze Bell Sect would send a True Disciple.

In that case, even if the strange incident was killed, it wouldn’t stop the spread of the strange mist.

But unfortunately, the Long Family, for no good reason, sent out Long Ye, a Peak sixth-stage Secret Martial Artist. Let alone the unformed strange mist, even if it had truly formed, he could clear it with some time.

This was like using a mountain-splitting saber to kill a chicken! He really didn’t know what Long Daosheng was thinking!

”Alright, let’s not talk about that. An Lan, how is the arrangement at the Legacy site?” He looked at An Lan beside him.

”It’s already arranged. Even a twelfth-stage Secret Martial Artist would definitely not notice anything unusual!” An Lan said.

Si Changyuan nodded slightly, finally some good news.

”Arranging it isn’t enough; we also need to spread the news in the city. The more Secret Martial Artists who go at that time, the more beneficial it will be for us!”

”Understood! But there’s no hurry. The True Disciple ranking competition is on the ninth day of the ninth month, and they will all be returning recently. Even if we do it, we have to wait until after they leave.” Si Liuyun said.

Although some people wouldn’t participate, the number of people returning would definitely exceed thirty.

Thirty Secret Martial Artists were not cabbages! It would be enough to make their plan with Jin Yu Pavilion fail!

”Alright, Old Freak Wang has gone somewhere recently, so we need to anticipate the situation where he doesn’t make a move.”

Joyful music played continuously, and in the main hall, the apprenticeship ceremony had already begun.

Long Daosheng stood on the upper left, wearing a black robe, the hem of which spread across the floor.

On both sides of the main hall, representatives from each Family sat on chairs, with their younger generations behind them, all watching curiously.

Until this moment, they still didn’t know who this person was, who could make Long Daosheng accept him as a Disciple on behalf of his father.

”Junior Brother, please step forward,” Long Daosheng said.

Qin Jiang in the corner nodded slightly, got up, and walked to the center of the main hall.

In an instant, whispers broke out in the main hall. They hadn’t expected this young man, whom they had previously overlooked, to be the one for whom Long Daosheng was accepting a Disciple on behalf of his father!

Especially Si Liuyun and An Lan.

Si Liuyun watched the figure slowly walking to the center of the main hall, his eyes filled with disbelief.

If he remembered correctly, Long Daosheng’s invitation clearly stated that this fourth Junior Brother was already a True Disciple of Bronze Bell Sect!

This also meant that Qin Jiang was now a Secret Martial Artist!

A Secret Martial Artist... He wasn’t even a Secret Martial Artist yet!

He was unwilling to believe this, a guy who had been buried by his subordinates not long ago.

How could he transform into a True Disciple of Bronze Bell Sect in such a short time? Becoming a more distinguished figure than him?

Beside him, An Lan was the same. A guy who was almost an ant to her had actually become the Fourth Master of the Long Family? And a Secret Martial Artist-level True Disciple of Bronze Bell Sect?

She really couldn’t believe it, but the truth was right before her eyes, without any illusion.

In the center of the main hall, Qin Jiang took the three sticks of incense from Long Daosheng’s hand and inserted them into the incense burner in front of him.

Music played, and Long Daosheng recited congratulatory remarks and an announcement to the deceased.

A moment later, he waved his sleeve, ”The ceremony is complete!”

The ceremony was nearing its end. In the main hall, only Long Daosheng, Qin Jiang, and the representatives of each Family remained.

Long Daosheng had already changed into a short outfit. He looked at the crowd and said with a smile, ”Everyone, I have a request regarding this year’s Golden Light Subduing Demon Fist quota.”

Uh, I forgot to set VIP chapters. I’ll put it on the shelves tomorrow.
