Everything else can be forgotten, but cultivation is something that Niu Dachun must do every day without fail.
At this moment, an undercurrent had already begun to rise in Yunxi, and it had become a towering wave.
The news of the murders of Japanese Ambassador Mifune Kifu and Huang family patriarch Huang Tao has spread throughout the entire Yunxi martial arts community.
The death of Japanese Ambassador Mifune Kijiro, in particular, caused a huge uproar in Yunxi.
Not only the martial arts world, but even Yunxi's political circles attach great importance to this matter.
The mayor of Yunxi City personally called to demand that the Yunxi Martial Arts Association thoroughly investigate the matter, find the murderer, bring the murderer to justice, and give an explanation to the people of the Japanese Martial Arts Exchange Association in Yunxi.
The Yunxi Martial Arts Association even convened its largest conference in history overnight.
All the powerful figures in the Yunxi martial arts world were present. Their gathering created an invisible pressure that permeated the air, making the entire hall feel like it was about to collapse.
Even if these powerful figures manage to control their aura, just a wisp of it, when gathered together, can make an ordinary person in the venue, who has no martial arts realm, feel suffocated.
Of course, most ordinary people would never be able to attend such a high-level conference in their lifetime.
Yuichi Mifune, the representative from Japan, spoke first.
"Our country has come here at the invitation of your country. As the host, your country has a responsibility to protect the personal safety of our warriors. If two of our warriors are killed in your country, your country will have to give us an explanation."
"Your country must make every effort to capture the murderer and hand him over to your country for prosecution."
Upon hearing Mifune Yuichi's words, Huang Shengtian, the head of the Huang family, showed a displeased expression.
"How can the people of China be handed over to the Japanese for handling?"
"Besides, this guy not only killed your Japanese samurai, but also our youngest son."
"I disagree with handing this criminal over to the people of Japan. This criminal should be dealt with by Yunxi Martial Arts in accordance with the rules of the martial arts world."
"Those who deserve to be executed by slow slicing, those who deserve to be torn apart by chariots, or as some say, burned alive."
The martial arts world is different from ordinary society; it has its own set of punishment methods, most of which are inherited from ancient cruel punishments, with the least severe punishment being the severing of Achilles tendons.
The reason for doing this is to regulate the behavior of martial artists and to give them a sense of rule-based deterrence.
"What do you think, Patriarch Zhao?" Huang Shengtian asked Zhao Tianba, who was standing beside him, seeking his support.
Zhao Tianba spoke up.
“I think Patriarch Huang is right. This murderer is a martial artist from China, and he should be punished according to the rules of Chinese martial arts.”
Fang Kuangxiong glanced at Huang Shengtian, then at Mifune Yuichi, and spoke.
“I think Ambassador Mifune makes a good point.”
"As the host of this Yunxi Martial Arts Tournament, our Huaxia Kingdom has a responsibility to protect the safety of the Japanese samurai participating in this tournament."
"Not only Japanese warriors, but also warriors from Siam."
“Master Huang, I know you are heartbroken by the death of your son, but this is a special time, so I believe the criminals should be handed over to the Japanese ambassador for handling.”
After hearing Fang Kuangxiong's words, Huang Shengtian's face darkened, and he was filled with resentment, cursing inwardly.
Fang Kuangxiong said to Sanchuan Xiongyi.
"Please rest assured, Mr. Yuichi. Our Martial Arts Association will do its utmost to investigate the culprit and will provide your country with an explanation within three days at the earliest."
Yuichi Mifune nodded in satisfaction.
"It seems that Chairman Fang is a person who understands the big picture."
"Let me report on the progress of the investigation."
Fang Kuangxiong looked at the other martial artist and said.
"Reporting to the Chairman, we have investigated everything in less than three days."
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room showed a joyful expression.
“I mobilized the public security system in Yunxi City and investigated everything thoroughly.”
"The man who killed the Japanese samurai is named Niu Dachun. He lives in Zhuxi Village and had previously served time in Yunxi City's No. 1 Prison before being released."
"So he's a guy with a criminal record," Fang Kuangxiong said meaningfully.
Upon hearing the person's name and learning that he was from Zhuxi Village, Zhao Tianba immediately spoke.
"Interesting, very interesting. Could this Niu Dachun also be the murderer of my brother?"
“If that’s really the case, then Niu Dachun can’t be handed over to your Huang family, but to our Zhao family.”
Upon hearing Zhao Tianba's words, the martial artist in the conference room asked curiously.
"Could it be that Patriarch Zhao also has a grudge against this Niu Dachun?"
"It's a shameful thing for my Zhao family. My younger brother, Zhao Tiankuang, has vanished into thin air since he went to Zhuxi Village. I'm currently investigating this matter."
"It now seems very likely that my brother has already fallen victim to the cruelty of Niu Dachun."
Upon hearing Zhao Tianba's words, the room erupted in an uproar.
Even Fang Kuangxiong frowned slightly.
He never expected that there would be such a reckless person in Yunxi, who would challenge the entire Yunxi martial arts world's major families single-handedly.
It seems that even if the King of Heaven himself came, Niu Dachun would still die.
"Summon the martial arts masters nominated by the Yunxi martial arts community this year to the arena," Fang Kuangxiong ordered.
