While the restaurant was bustling with activity, the lights in the lobby suddenly went out.
brush!
A beam of light shone on the second-floor corridor, where a middle-aged man stood.
Su Changhu.
The leader of Humen.
Most people have seen him.
"Ladies and gentlemen, it is a great honor that you have graced us with your presence at my daughter's birthday dinner. I hope you all enjoy yourselves tonight and have a wonderful time."
Su Changhu looked at everyone with a smile.
The guests responded with smiles. To put it bluntly, this birthday banquet was actually a social gathering of bigwigs from all sides of Jianghai.
Su Changhu was merely giving them an opportunity indirectly.
"There's something I'd like to announce here."
Su Changhu suddenly realized.
Everyone looked over with puzzled expressions.
Su Changhu said, "I suppose many of you are seniors from the martial arts world. After the last martial arts tournament, Master Qin's name has spread far and wide. However, many friends have expressed their dissatisfaction with this."
Everyone was somewhat surprised, but none of them knew about this.
Some people, however, had shifty eyes, and it was unclear what they were thinking.
"Of course, in accordance with Master Qin's wishes, in addition to celebrating my daughter's birthday, we have also specially arranged a martial arts sparring match." As soon as Su Changhu finished speaking, a bright light shot in one direction, where a temporary stage had been set up.
Everyone looked over, and some of them started discussing it with surprise.
"As you've probably guessed, anyone who wants to spar with Master Qin can step up, but the prerequisite is that they must defeat Master Jiang. After all, Master Qin defeated Master Jiang back then," Su Changhu said with a smile.
"Hmph! Who knows if it's just a fabrication? Maybe you're deliberately exaggerating Master Qin's reputation and bribing Master Jiang to deal with us?" someone questioned.
“Hehe, what this friend said makes sense. However, since you cannot defeat Master Jiang, then Master Qin will not show himself.” Su Changhu smiled.
"Hmph! A small underworld force, yet you have such a big mouth." The man said coldly.
"That's right, a gangster force like us isn't qualified to talk to us. Let that damned Master Qin come out!" a burly man shouted.
"Insolence! How dare you be powerless against Mr. Qin?!"
brush!
A strange figure suddenly appeared in front of the big man!
bump!
With a loud collision, the burly man was sent flying backward!
"Guards! Throw him out!"
As Su Changhu's voice fell, several bodyguards immediately carried the unconscious man out.
Everyone watched the figure who made the move with apprehension; it was an old man.
"Master Jiang!"
Those who knew the person exclaimed in surprise.
The old man who made the move was none other than Master Jiang.
Several martial artists immediately stood up, staring at Master Jiang with solemn expressions and fighting spirit in their eyes.
"Tonight, to prevent any trouble, we've asked Master Jiang to be in charge," Su Changhu said with a slight smile.
“Let’s begin now,” an old man said in a hoarse voice.
Su Changhu smiled slightly: "No rush. The main purpose this time is still for my daughter."
The martial artists in the arena were only a small part; most of them were there to curry favor with Humen.
Seeing that Humen had directly intimidated these martial artists, everyone immediately made up their minds.
We must befriend Humen!
The atmosphere in the arena quickly returned to normal.
"That's Master Jiang? The number one in Jianghai?" Ye Xiaotian munched on an apple, leisurely watching this scene.
Qin Ziling nodded: "How are you feeling?"
Ye Xiaotian thought for a moment, then smiled faintly and said, "If this is all he's capable of, then I'll gladly accept the title of number one in Jianghai!"
confidence!
Master Jiang is already a fifth-rank expert, yet he remains so confident, which is enough to show that his strength is indeed remarkable.
Ye Xiaotian hesitated for a moment, then said, "I wonder how strong that Master Qin is."
Qin Ziling did not respond.
At that moment, a gasp of surprise rippled through the crowd.
Qin Ziling and Ye Xiaotian looked over upon hearing the sound, and their gazes immediately froze.
A beam of light shone from the second-floor staircase, and in the center of the beam, a young girl in a black dress gracefully descended. Her skin was as white as snow, which was even more pronounced against the black dress. She was tall and slender, and the hem of the dress only covered two-thirds of her thighs, exposing her slender and long legs to the air. Her steps were playful and light.
"Wow! That's Sect Master Su's daughter? She's so beautiful!"
"Yes! Like an elf, I wonder who will be lucky enough to catch her eye!"
"Hiss! If I had known that the Su family's daughter was so beautiful, I should have spent more time getting to know Sect Leader Su back then!"
"Tch! You don't even have the right to move around!"
"..."
"Tsk tsk, such a beauty is worthy of me, Jin Yueshuo!"
In one of the crowd, a young man stared at Su Ning'er with gleaming eyes, his greed and evil intentions undisguised.
So he lifted his foot and walked towards Su Ning'er.
Behind him followed two middle-aged men, dressed in black suits, their faces expressionless.
This scene was spotted by some observant people, who immediately began to enjoy the spectacle.
"Hello, you're blocking my way." Su Ning'er frowned slightly. Her gaze had been fixed on Qin Ziling. She had originally intended to go over and say hello, but unexpectedly, she was stopped by a stranger.
“Beautiful Miss Su, hello. My name is Jin Yueshuo, and I come from the Jin family in Jiang Province. You may not have heard of me, but that doesn’t matter. I was immediately captivated by Miss Su’s beauty, so I came here specifically to express my admiration for her,” Jin Yueshuo said with a polite smile.
When he mentioned that he came from the Kim family, he deliberately emphasized his words.
"My God! The Jin family? From Jiang Province, isn't that the Jin family, one of the eight great families?"
"Hiss! It's the Jin family?"
"That's right! The Jin family, ranked third! Second only to the Long family! They are a true martial arts family!"
"I know that. It's because the Long family not only has a strong presence in martial arts, but also controls most of the economy in Jiang Province. That's why the Jin family is slightly inferior. Otherwise, the Jin family is a martial arts family and should be stronger than the Long family!"
"Jin Yueshuo, could he be the young master of the Jin family?"
"He is the young master of the Jin family, and also the young master of the Jin Martial Arts Academy. The Jin Martial Arts Academy is one of the top three martial arts academies in Jiang Province, and its strength far surpasses that of our Jianghai Martial Arts Association!"
"That's really impressive!"
"..."
Hearing the surrounding people talking, Su Changhu frowned upstairs.
"Sect Master, should we kick these people out?" a trusted aide suggested.
Su Changhu thought for a moment, then shook his head: "No need, someone will handle it. Since he comes from Jiang Province, he is not someone we can mess with."
Although the Long family was defeated, it wasn't Hu Men who defeated them! It was Mr. Qin!
Therefore, they cannot interfere.
