"What a brilliant move by that lord! Now, the hearts of the people of Fujian will probably be with that lord."
Standing on the dock, Wang Xianzhi listened to the people's words and felt a pang of emotion: "No wonder Chen Jinnan abandoned the Fujian region that he had painstakingly built up and hid in the Liao Kingdom."
"His methods of bewitching people are like children playing house compared to those of any adult."
"At most, he can only fool a few ignorant village women, but that official has truly won over all the people of Fujian."
“From now on, as long as he says ‘follow me’ in Fujian, the people here will take their weapons and follow him to the battlefield.”
“Even if the common people don’t know who they’re going to fight, they will still go.”
"Because they know that as long as they follow that lord to the battlefield, they can earn more money than they could earn in several lifetimes."
"Even if I die in battle, my family will not be bullied, and my death will bring honor to my family."
Hearing his sigh, Ke Shouliang said, "Back then in the island nation, all the soldiers under the prince were like a pack of howling wolves, charging forward fearlessly."
"They are not afraid of death at all. They are only afraid that they will not kill more Japanese pirates and make more contributions. They are afraid that their performance will embarrass the prince."
Looking at the soldiers with high morale, Wang Xianzhi felt a pang of emotion.
He hadn't seen this kind of morale in so many years.
"With such a fearless army, what need does the Ming Dynasty have to worry about the Liao and Manchu kingdoms?"
Seeing that he was deeply moved, Ke Shouliang couldn't help but say, "So Master, cooperating with the Prince isn't actually a bad thing, we..."
"Don't call me master, I don't have a disciple like you."
Wang Xianzhi glared at him, her anger rising: "You dog, how many times have I told you, if you offend that important person, don't ever say I'm your master."
"And yet you, upon meeting them, immediately betrayed your master and even conspired with others to scheme against me."
"You dog! I taught you martial arts, provided you with food and clothing, and this is how you repay me? You still have the nerve to call me master? This is how you treat your master."
Feeling somewhat wronged by the scolding, Ke Shouliang retorted, "I didn't plan ahead. When the prince asked me to come back, didn't I immediately tell you that the prince wanted to see you?"
"I'll let you go first, find a place to hide, and I'll take full responsibility if anything happens."
Hearing this, Wang Xianzhi kicked him so hard he fell flat on his face: "Ha, are you a pig-brain? Do you really think they sent you back to scheme against me?"
"They want to use you to tell their teacher that they want to meet with me and explain their reasoning."
"Then you don't have to go."
"Not going?"
"This magistrate is reasoning with me now, giving me a way out. If I don't accept it, then next time, what this magistrate is saying won't be reasonable anymore."
"When the time comes, all they'll talk to me about is fists and weapons. With my physique, I can withstand a few punches from that lord."
"Even if the three of us, master and apprentice, were tied together, we probably couldn't withstand a single punch from them."
Thinking of the scene where Li Chang'an smashed the island nation with one punch, Ke Shouliang shook his head: "Master, you can remove the word 'estimate'. The three of us definitely can't withstand one punch from him."
Looking at his disappointing apprentice, Wang Xianzhi sighed deeply: "So even if I didn't want to come, I had to."
"At the beginning of each dynasty, people in the martial arts world would be given a warning."
"That lord desires peace and stability for the world, and will surely find a way to deal with the turmoil in the martial arts world."
"Now all the sects in the martial arts world are waiting to see how that person will deal with them."
Zhan Qixiong wasn't worried. Ever since he learned that Li Chang'an had wiped out all the Japanese pirates on the sea, he had been thinking about joining him.
Upon hearing that the Japanese pirates had been completely wiped out, Huang He, the governor of Zhejiang, fled overnight with his sister-in-law.
When he left, he specifically instructed Zhan Qixiong to quickly retire from the martial arts world and hide in the deep mountains and forests, otherwise he would have to face that invincible prince directly.
As it turns out, Huang He's guess was indeed correct.
The message Li Chang'an sent back to Ke Shouliang clearly indicated his intention to take action against the various martial arts sects.
"Master, what should we do? Do we really have to follow the prince and attack other martial arts practitioners?"
Zhan Qixiong wanted to know what his master was thinking.
What can we do?
Wang Xianzhi sighed: "Since we're here, let's make the best of it and see that lord first."
"No matter what, that lord still has a heart of compassion for the people of the world."
Upon hearing the words "compassion," Ke Shouliang weakly retorted, "Master, the prince's compassion is reserved for his own people."
"Of the twelve million Japanese pirates in the island nation, only some women were left."
"Almost everyone else was killed, and the island nation was sunk by his punch."
"So I feel that we shouldn't expect the prince to have any compassion."
"If you really offend a prince, you probably won't have any other way out except to find a place with good feng shui."
After saying this, the three of them remained silent for a long time, and then sighed in unison.
People in the martial arts world pursue freedom, unrestrainedness, and the joy of revenge.
What Li Chang'an wanted was a stable and orderly martial arts world.
There are some irreconcilable contradictions between the two. To find a balance, a martial arts master must step forward to maintain order.
Wang Xianzhi understood that she was the unlucky one who had been chosen.
But he also understood that he wouldn't be the last.
Li Chang'an would definitely not let any of the four legendary figures in the martial arts world go. As long as he dealt with these four, the other insignificant sects would be nothing to him.
So when he arrived, he also told the other three people about Li Chang'an's idea.
