Longevity Reward Redemption: The Immortal Clan Starts with Farmers

16: The Chen family’s fierce tigers rise to fame through martial arts!The fourth Realm of martial arts was almost the limit that a Jianghu Martial Artist could reach; any higher was the Innate Realm, a legend of the Jianghu.

What is a legend? It is something rarely seen!

For the old man to see Chen Chuanwu as a prospect for the fourth Realm was already an extremely high evaluation.

While the old man was sizing up Chen Chuanwu, a Disciple suddenly entered the doorway of the central hall.

”Master, someone outside is looking for Chen Chuanwu!”

Seeing the Disciple’s strange expression, the old man felt suspicious and asked a few more questions.

”Who is looking for Chen Chuanwu, and what is it about?”

The Disciple glanced at Chen Chuanwu, a hint of pity appearing in his eyes as he spoke.

”It’s Liu Xingye, the nephew of County Commandant Liu Jiang. He says Chen Chuanwu falsely claimed the bounty and that his reputation is undeserved. He wants to duel him to measure his martial arts skills!”

The Disciple then recounted the information he had gathered to the old man.

This included Chen Chuanwu bringing the heads of the Four Tigers of Black Mountain to claim the reward, and even the matter of Chen Chuanwu finding the County Commandant’s token on the bandits.

The old man gave a faint smile; he knew Liu Xingye was likely angry about Chen Chuanwu making trouble for his uncle, which was why he came to cause trouble for Chen Chuanwu.

”This Liu Xingye has quite a reputation in Longwei County and is considered a leader among the younger generation of Martial Artists. If you can’t handle it, just say the word. For your master’s sake, I will protect you; he won’t dare enter the martial arts school!”

Chen Chuanwu was inherently a brave and domineering person; he was not the type to stay quiet when someone came to his door, especially since his family and the Liu Family had a deep feud.

Naturally unable to restrain himself, he said directly, ”He’s just looking for trouble on purpose! Our Chen Family members aren’t cowards who don’t fight back when bullied. I’ll go test the strength of this leader of the younger generation!”

As soon as Chen Chuanwu finished speaking, he strode out of the central hall and headed toward the exit of the martial arts school.

On the martial arts school’s training ground, Liu Xingye was leading a crowd of onlookers. He wanted to publicly defeat Chen Chuanwu and brand him with the foul reputation of falsely claiming a bounty.

These Five Tigers of Black Mountain were originally the Liu Family’s prey; both he and his second uncle viewed the Five Tigers of Black Mountain as stepping stones for promotion!

Who would have thought that instead of gaining any benefits, they would lose out to this brat Chen Chuanwu and even get themselves into a mess!

Ever since Chen Chuanwu produced his second uncle’s token, rumors had spread among the County Yamen and Blade Wielders that County Commandant Liu Jiang was in league with the Five Tigers of Black Mountain!

Liu Xingye was naturally proud; he couldn’t stand such a grievance and went straight to find Chen Chuanwu.

”You are Chen Chuanwu?”

Liu Xingye was tall and wore a Constable’s uniform, looking quite impressive with his Aura. However, the way he looked at people with disdainful side-glances made others feel uncomfortable.

”So what? I am. Are you looking for trouble?”

”Just because I found your uncle’s token on the bandits? I didn’t even say your uncle was colluding with bandits, yet you’re so eager to pick a fight with me?”

Although Chuanwu was brave, he wasn’t stupid. He first explained what happened to seize the moral high ground.

When Liu Xingye heard Chen Chuanwu blackening his and his uncle’s names in public, his Face turned red with rage, and he cursed furiously.

”If you dare to talk nonsense again, I’ll tear your foul mouth apart! First, explain the matter of you falsely claiming the bounty. You took down four Flesh Refining Realm experts of the Four Tigers of Black Mountain by yourself? What kind of peerless Genius are you?”

”Today, I will test your worth and tear through your facade of falsely claiming the bounty!”

Unable to win the argument, Liu Xingye directly drew his Waist Saber and charged straight at Chen Chuanwu!

Liu Xingye had studied martial arts under Liu Jiang since childhood and had also trained at the Mad Blade Martial Arts School in the county seat. He believed his strength had few rivals among the younger generation!

He already knew that Chen Chuanwu was in the Flesh Refining Realm, only fourteen years old, and lacked practical combat experience.

Liu Xingye was also in the Flesh Refining Realm and had practiced martial arts for ten years. At twenty-four, his blood and Qi were at their peak, so he planned to crush Chen Chuanwu with absolute strength!

”Haha, well come! Whoever wins is in the right!”

Chen Chuanwu laughed loudly and drew the Fine Iron Spear from his back. With a steady temperament, he met the opponent’s steel saber.

The two sides engaged in a fierce battle. After more than ten moves, Chen Chuanwu felt confident. Liu Xingye’s saber technique was quite fierce, stronger than any of the Four Tigers of Black Mountain!

But its strength was limited; at most, he could handle two people, and that would be his limit.

Yet that night, Chen Chuanwu had taken on four people alone!

It could be said that the gap between the two was quite large!

”You bragged so loudly, but is this all you’ve got?”

Chen Chuanwu flicked aside Liu Xingye’s steel saber with his spear and said with a provocative laugh!

Liu Xingye’s Face instantly turned as red as a monkey’s butt. He hadn’t expected Chen Chuanwu to still have strength in reserve. If he lost this duel, both he and his uncle would lose all Face.

”Don’t be so arrogant, you brat! You forced my hand!”

A fierce light flashed in Liu Xingye’s eyes. He brought out his trump card, performing the Gale Blade Technique he had learned at the martial arts school to its limit!

”Haha, now this is satisfying!”

A sharp light flashed in Chen Chuanwu’s eyes, and he no longer hid his strength. He performed the Eight Spears of Tiger Killing, which were fierce and domineering, like a tiger descending from a mountain!

Within three moves, Liu Xingye could no longer hold out. His steel saber was flicked away, and he was struck in the waist by the spear, sending him flying!

”Liu kid, do I have the strength to take the heads of the Four Tigers of Black Mountain?”

Chen Chuanwu pointed his spear at Liu Xingye’s chest, a fierce light showing in his eyes. It seemed that if Liu Xingye’s answer was unsatisfactory, he would kill him!

”Cough... cough... You... you have the strength. I was wrong!”

Liu Xingye spat out a large mouthful of blood. He had wanted to act tough to regain some dignity, but looking at the ferocity in Chen Chuanwu’s eyes, he felt as if he would be stabbed to death in the next moment!

Terrified, he lowered his head and was cowed by Chen Chuanwu!

”Hmph! Remember, we Chen Family members are not to be bullied!”

Chen Chuanwu knew he couldn’t kill him, or it would be hard to settle the matter, so he gave a cold snort and retracted his spear!

At this time, the stunned crowd on the field finally reacted. Someone gasped and exclaimed:

”Such a fierce and domineering spear technique, he truly is a fierce tiger descending the mountain!”

Thus, the name of the fierce tiger Chen Chuanwu spread among the Constables and Blade Wielders who had followed, and later throughout Longwei County.

Using his own reputation as a stepping stone, Liu Xingye allowed Chen Chuanwu to gain the reputation of being the number one person in the Flesh Refining Realm.

The Kaoshan Village Chen Family also became well-known. As long as nothing unexpected happened to Chen Chuanwu, in another ten years, under Chen Chuanwu’s leadership, the Chen Family would surely become a martial arts powerhouse in Longwei County!

Liu Xingye’s subordinates helped him up and carried him away. He stole a venomous glance at Chen Chuanwu, his heart filled with extreme hatred. He only waited to return and beg his second uncle, Liu Jiang, for revenge.

At this moment, a burst of long laughter suddenly rang out.

Chen Chuanwu saw the grey-haired, sturdy old man walking over with a smile. His eyes were full of appreciation as if looking at a fine piece of jade. He patted Chuanwu’s shoulder and said:

”Everyone, bear witness. From today onwards, Chen Chuanwu is my, Master Li Wen’s, Personal Disciple!”

”Young Master Liu, the spar between you and my Disciple was very exciting. If you want to exchange moves again, our Iron Spear Martial Arts School is always available!”

Liu Xingye’s expression changed drastically. Now that this Chen brat had become Master Li Wen’s Personal Disciple, wouldn’t his plan to ask his uncle for revenge fall through?

He had long known that Master Li Wen was already a Bone Tempering Realm expert fifteen years ago and had fought all over Longwei County. Now, if he wanted his second uncle to take action, Master Li Wen would definitely not stand by and watch!

Oh no! This brat has truly gained momentum!
