The Tang Sect is located far away in the Ten Thousand Mountains in the southwest corner of Yandu. The road to the sect is bumpy and transportation is inconvenient.
The Lin family had already arranged a Land Rover Range Rover for Long Yi to ride in at the door of the Lin family.
Long Yi drove the car himself, Tang Xuehui sat in the passenger seat, and Dagui occupied the three-person seat in the back row alone.
On the highway, Long Yi asked while driving, "After getting off the highway, how long will it take to drive further?"
Tang Xuehui said coldly: "First drive to Qishan City in Yandu, then go to Shanshui County under it, and then go into the mountains from Shanshui County. The car can't drive in.
It will take about two or three days to walk and you will be there."
Long Yi frowned slightly. "Walk so far? Your Tang Sect is really isolated from the outside world. Is it possible that it takes so long every time you come out?"
Tang Xuehui snorted coldly, "My Tang Sect is the number one elixir producer in Dragon Country. I don't know how many people come to us every month asking for medicine. If we weren't hiding in the mountains, wouldn't we be annoyed to death by you all coming to ask for medicine?
Furthermore, the deep mountains are filled with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, which is why they can produce the best spiritual medicines."
"That's true." Long Yi nodded in agreement, then changed the subject: "But you're wrong about one thing. I didn't come here to ask for medicine, I went to steal it."
Tang Xuehui was choked and speechless. Long Yi was probably the only one in the world who could speak of plundering and robbery so confidently.
The three of them traveled in silence all the way to Qishan City.
At the same time, the Xingyi School in central Yandu.
A young man with a plaster cast on his hand is doing muscle rehabilitation training in the gym.
He slowly grasped the hundred-pound barbell in his hand and lifted it up slowly. Even though sweat was already pouring down his forehead due to the pain, he gritted his teeth and held on, with a firm look in his eyes.
There was a man and a woman standing next to them. The girl was petite and cute, wearing a cute white sailor suit and black over-the-knee socks. Her cute outfit was out of place in the training room.
The man's right arm hung limply, as if he was seriously injured.
"Yang Wu has a strong character. He has recovered well in the past half month. His injuries have improved and he can now do weight training." The middle-aged man smiled with satisfaction.
"Uncle Cao Yue, there is a shortage of medicinal materials in the sect. We have been unable to make ends meet recently. I have given the few remaining bone-growing pills to Senior Brother. Your injuries..." The girl's face was full of guilt, and she was about to cry before she finished speaking.
Cao Yue patted the girl's shoulder and comforted her:
"Xiaoxiao, you don't need to blame yourself. Yang Wu is the last hope of our Xingyi Sect. He is extremely talented and is the hope for the future of our sect. We should prioritize him above all else. If he is crippled, our Xingyi Sect will truly be destitute of talent.
What's more, I'm in the Heaven Realm, so my healing ability is naturally stronger than his. Even without the Bone Regenerating Pill, my injuries will be healed in a month or two."
"Uncle Cao Yue, it's all my fault that I can't help..." Yuan Xiaoxiao lowered her head in self-blame, "It's all that damn Long Yi's fault. He used such a heavy blow in just a duel!"
"The strong are respected. It was only after the old man came back that we saw that he had reached the peak of the Heavenly Realm. We have offended a venerable, and this is already a light outcome." Cao Yue sighed heavily after he finished speaking.
"Hmph! I don't believe that boy is a Venerable. He looks to be in his early twenties at most. Counting back hundreds of years, when has there ever been such a young Venerable?" Yuan Xiaoxiao snorted coldly and stamped his feet in anger.
"I think he's at best an external martial arts master, with nothing but brute force!"
Cao Yue was silent for a long time, and a hint of doubt arose in his heart.
After the old man said that Long Yi was a Venerable, he thought about it carefully. During the fight between him and Long Yi, from beginning to end, he only displayed the strength and power of his physical body.
There's no sign of how strong his true energy is; his fighting style is more like that of an external martial artist.
"Maybe the old man has made a mistake." Cao Yue whispered to himself.
Although the external master is powerful, he can only dominate a certain area at most. He can never be invincible in the world and establish his own school.
But it is different for the Venerables. There are only a handful of Venerables in the entire Dragon Country. They are all old monsters who have lived for almost a hundred years and are the ancestors of top wealthy families.
Just as he was thinking, the phone in his pocket rang.
Less than a minute after Cao Yue answered the phone, the solemn expression on his face became more intense. By the time he hung up the phone, his face had already turned bitter.
"Did something happen? Why do you look so bad?" Yuan Xiaoxiao asked worriedly.
Yang Wu, who was lifting weights, slowly put down the barbell and turned to look at Cao Yue.
Cao Yue sighed heavily, and in an instant he seemed to have aged more than ten years. His originally straight back suddenly became hunched.
His expression changed again and again, and finally he said sadly: "Three days ago, Long Yi easily killed the head of the Lin family in front of hundreds of warriors at the Qiankun Martial Arts Competition."
"The head of the Lin family?" Yuan Xiaoxiao lowered her head in thought, not yet realizing the seriousness of the matter.
Yang Wu's expression suddenly changed, and he exclaimed in shock, "Lin Jifeng, the head of the Lin family, didn't he become a Venerable more than ten years ago?"
"Indeed, it is Lin Jifeng." Cao Yue sighed.
Yang Wu was struck by lightning and stood there in a daze for three full minutes, his mind going blank.
The young man who replaced him as the Red Dragon's chief instructor and humiliated him in front of everyone was actually a Venerable?
Yang Wu felt that he was the most ridiculous clown in the world. The other person could easily crush him to death with just a flick of his finger, yet he still fantasized about stepping on Long Yi under his feet one day.
He suddenly broke the plaster on his right arm and kicked the training equipment on the shelf into pieces, making a mess.
Afterwards, Yang Wu smiled bitterly, strode out of the training room, and disappeared.
Yuan Xiaoxiao was worried that something had happened and anxiously wanted to go out to look for Yang Wu, but was stopped by Cao Yue.
"Let him go. This incident has dealt him a heavy blow. I'm afraid his spiritual heart has been damaged. This inner demon can only be overcome by himself. No one else can help at all." Cao Yue said sadly.
"Uncle Cao Yue, is it true as they said on the phone that Long Yi is a venerable?" Yuan Xiaoxiao still couldn't believe the news.
That young man is two years younger than her, how could he be a Venerable?
You know, in the martial arts world, few people can achieve success overnight unless they encounter a great opportunity.
Cultivation is against the will of heaven. Every step forward requires months of time and countless sweat. No matter how talented you are, it takes years of accumulation to achieve a breakthrough.
There are so many warriors who cannot reach the heavenly realm in their entire lives.
Among the warriors in the Heavenly Realm, those who can break through to the Supreme Realm are even rarer.
