Wang Family Martial Arts School in Great Wilderness City
Inside the hall, several men in white robes sat on either side of a table, while the chair at the head of the table was empty.
At this moment, a man in white robes became impatient and slammed his hand on the table, angrily saying, "What on earth is Wang Tianquan doing? He's kept us waiting for so long."
Everyone's attention was drawn to it.
The man who spoke was Wang Tianfeng, the chief worshipper of the Wang Family Martial Arts School, whose status was second only to the school master, Wang Tianquan.
Some people began to echo this sentiment, speaking ill of Wang Tianquan.
Others kept their heads down, pretending they hadn't heard anything.
"Go and see what the curator is doing?"
Wang Tianfeng gave the order with a hint of disgust in his eyes.
The servants who were serving him quickly lowered their heads and went out. Before long, Wang Tianquan appeared in front of everyone, accompanied by his head steward, Steward Xu, who was always by his side.
Upon seeing Wang Tianquan, Wang Tianfeng's expression remained unchanged.
"You've got quite the airs, haven't you? You've been absent from the regular clan meeting for so long. Do you disregard the clan rules, or do you look down on us old folks?" Wang Tianfeng said sarcastically.
Wang Tianquan was already immune to this.
He felt like something was missing if this guy didn't nag him a few times a day.
He sat down with a calm expression, picked up the teacup beside him, took a couple of slow sips, and then looked at Wang Tianfeng leisurely, "What else? Tell me all at once."
Wang Tianfeng's dislike for Wang Tianquan was plain to see, without any attempt to hide it.
At this moment, his expression softened, and he said, "Master, we hope you will explain the matter of the recruitment order to us. Without the approval of the Hall of Worship, you initiated the recruitment order without authorization. Do you need to give us an explanation?"
Wang Tianquan glanced at Wang Tianfeng and said, "The Wang Family Martial Arts School is already in decline. Shouldn't it be within the normal range for me to do something that breaks with convention? Do you all want to just watch the martial arts school fall into ruin?"
His words were righteous and eloquent.
Even Wang Tianfeng was speechless. After a long while, he finally said, "You did something that violated the clan rules, and you still tried to put on a high-sounding cloak. I have to say, you played this trick well."
The constant bickering between these two was already commonplace for the rest of the group.
After a series of exchanges, the two were evenly matched.
After everyone had left, Wang Tianquan stared blankly at the empty hall. Steward Xu walked over from the side and said softly, "It's time to take your medicine."
Several pills appeared in Butler Xu's hand.
The pale yellow pills exuded a strong medicinal fragrance.
Top-grade elixirs.
Wang Tianquan waved his hand and said weakly, "Don't waste this stuff on me. Every one you eat is one less you have."
Butler Xu didn't say anything when he saw this.
The situation at the Wang Family Martial Arts School is now extremely complicated.
After leaving, Wang Tianfeng went straight back to his mansion. After dismissing his servants, he went to a hidden door, fiddled with it for a while, and the solid wall slowly moved, revealing a passage.
He walked in through the passage.
Before long, they saw a dark room.
Wang Tianfeng pushed open the door.
Inside the dark room stood a person shrouded in a black robe.
I can't tell his age.
"how?"
That man said.
His voice sounded somewhat hoarse.
Wang Tianfeng sat on the stone bench, looked at the man in black, and said, "I agree."
The man in black smiled with satisfaction and slowly turned around. Under the brim of his black hat was an extremely young face, still bearing traces of childishness.
"Good, it's good that you know what's good for you. Don't worry, once it's done, you'll be the new head of the Wang Family Martial Arts School."
Upon hearing this, Wang Tianfeng calmly replied, "I wouldn't dare to think about dealing with a tiger for its skin. As long as you can kill Wang Tianquan in the end and avenge me, that's enough. At that time, I won't care about the outcome for either the Wang Family Martial Arts School or the Hall of Worship."
"I've been ruthless enough, but I didn't expect you to be even more ruthless than me. Very good. I'm very satisfied with what you just said. Your future is limitless."
"That's what the man in black said."
Wang Tianfeng's expression remained indifferent.
He didn't seem excited about it. What drove him to do everything was not fame or fortune. After all, he was the second-in-command of the Wang Family Martial Arts School at the moment, second only to the leader. Even if he rebelled against the Wang Family Martial Arts School, he would at most become the head of the school, and most importantly, he would be branded as a traitor, which would be a loss.
All he wanted was revenge.
Because, after Wang Tianquan took over his father's position, the first thing he did was to put his father in prison in order to establish his authority and strengthen his prestige.
His father couldn't bear such injustice and committed suicide in prison.
The murder of my father must be avenged.
Thinking of this, Wang Tianfeng's eyes darkened further.
Hatred is indeed the primary catalyst.
...
When Zhou Mu woke up this morning, he found that the bed board he was sleeping on had collapsed, and next to him, Lu Shan was fast asleep, snoring loudly.
"I……"
Zhou Mu was a little dazed, not knowing what had happened, and his head was spinning.
At this moment, Ye Mujiu walked in from outside, carrying a cup of hot tea. Seeing that Zhou Mu was awake, she said helplessly, "You're awake. Don't drink like that again, your body can't take it."
I remember now, I drank alcohol.
And he got completely drunk.
Zhou Mu blushed. "I didn't do anything out of line yesterday, did I?"
