Su Man, wearing a gorgeous cloak, came out of the house and went into the clothing store.
Linlang's clothes are all of amorous styles, which are really not suitable to wear to attend the Huoyun Sect's banquet.
After all, Yan Ling'er hasn't appeared in public for three years. For no reason, people thought she had gone into the adult entertainment industry. She should be more dignified and generous.
Su Man took a fancy to a dress with moon-white and silver lines. It was not one of those complicated long skirts, but more neutral. With the addition of a vermilion wristband and waist belt, it looked even more outstanding.
Looking at the heroic heroine in the mirror, Su Man nodded with satisfaction.
She untied her bun and tied her long hair with a red headband, looking a bit like Yan Ling'er in the past.
Coming out of the garment shop, Su Man was thinking about where to spend the day when she saw a familiar figure flash into an alley not far away.
That is, Zuo Yan?
Things are different now. With a few jumps, Su Man arrived at the place where Zuo Yan disappeared in the blink of an eye.
His agile skills drew cheers from the people around him, and many people even urged him to do another one.
Su Man stood at the entrance of the alley. It was a dead end and empty except for a few old baskets.
She walked around a few more times but still couldn't find Zuo Yan, so she had to give up.
But seeing that he was fine, Su Man also breathed a sigh of relief.
She took the opportunity to stroll around the city and find out the latest developments in the martial arts world.
As the martial arts conference approaches, most of the topics revolve around the next leader of the martial arts world.
...
In the largest teahouse in the city, several insiders in the martial arts world sat together and discussed the matter enthusiastically.
"Yan Ling'er left a letter saying she would observe three years of mourning for Alliance Leader Yan. She should be back this year."
"She will succeed the leader of the martial arts world when she returns, right?"
"It's not that easy. In the three years since she left, it's been Huoyun Sect's headmaster Huo who has been in control of the martial arts world. She's a junior, and everyone used to look up to her because of Alliance Leader Yan. Now that Alliance Leader Yan is gone, she's isolated and helpless. How can she be the leader of the martial arts world?"
"But when Alliance Leader Yan passed away, the other leaders, grateful for his heroic deeds, unanimously agreed to appoint Yan Ling'er as the leader of the martial arts world."
"Come on, do you really think they're doing this for Alliance Leader Yan? They're simply afraid that someone will become the leader and it will be detrimental to them, so they're using Yan Ling'er to contain the opponent."
"So that's how it is. It looks like Yan Ling'er is going to run into trouble this time."
“…”
After listening to the stories in the teahouse, Su Man gained a general understanding of the martial arts world in addition to the secrets and gossip.
There are countless sects of all sizes in the martial arts world, but the only truly famous ones are the Fire Cloud Sect, the Kunlun Sect, the Murong Family, and the Qingliang Temple.
The abbot of Qingliang Temple, Master Yueyin, has always been indifferent to worldly affairs, so everyone in Qingliang Temple, apart from practicing qigong, is devoted to worshipping Buddha and does not participate in worldly affairs.
The same is true for the Murong family. Their family has been practicing medicine for generations, and practicing martial arts is just to strengthen their bodies.
However, the fact that he could reach such a status based on his medical skills alone shows how high his medical skills were.
Especially the eldest son of the Murong family, Murong Jin, who was rumored to be a wealthy family and only saw patients once a month. Even so, he was still a hotbed of patients.
The remaining Huoyun Sect and Kunlun Sect are real martial artists. The Huoyun Sect acts flamboyantly, while the Kunlun Sect is very reserved.
But being introverted does not mean that they are not competitive. On the contrary, the leader of Kunlun Sect, Sanxiao, is a smiling tiger.
Before Alliance Leader Yan passed away, it was he who proposed that Yan Linger be the next leader of the martial arts world, thus cutting off Sect Leader Huo's path to becoming the leader.
He may not have been sincere in doing this, but most of the time he did it to check and balance Sect Leader Huo, which shows how scheming he is.
-
When Su Man came out of the teahouse, she happened to see a carriage engraved with the Murong family emblem passing by her.
It seems that the Murong family is also here at this martial arts conference.
It was getting late, and Su Man walked slowly towards Master Huo's house.
Although she had lived here before, today was the first time she walked in without a veil and in her true appearance.
Before he could even step through the gate, he was stopped by two disciples at the door with long sticks, "No entry, no one."
Su Man pointed at herself and said, "Me? An idler?"
The two disciples looked at each other and asked, "What else?"
Come to think of it, she had no clan emblem or training clothes on her. If she was the head of a clan, she was too young. No wonder these two people wanted to stop her.
Su Man smiled and bowed, "I'm here to attend Sect Leader Huo's banquet. Please make way for me."
"Banquet?" The disciple on the left looked wary. "Do you have a visiting card?"
"No."
"Without a name card, your identity is unknown. We cannot let you in." The disciple on the right said immediately.
Su Man sighed, "Although I don't have a name card, my identity is not unknown."
"Then what's your name?" The disciple on the right crossed his arms, looking like he wanted to hear who you are.
Su Man's red lips opened and closed, "Yan Ling'er."
“…”
The two disciples looked at each other, and the two of them together could be described as "stunned".
The disciple on the left boldly asked, "You say you are Yan Ling'er, what evidence do you have?"
evidence?
Su Man was in a dilemma. There were no ID cards or facial recognition these days. How could she prove it?
Seeing that Su Man didn't say anything, the disciple on the right thought she was guilty, so he said with a fake smile, "Miss, don't make fun of us. Just go back to where you came from."
Su Man raised her eyebrows. "Why do you assume I'm not one of you before I even say anything? Aren't you being too arbitrary?"
The right disciple sneered, "It's true that every little cat and dog wants to pretend to be a human being."
