Ouyang Feng immediately ordered his servants to bring over three wooden boxes.
Lu Youjiao quickly opened the wooden box, revealing dazzling gold and silver jewelry!
Ouyang Feng said, "These gold and silver treasures are worth no less than 100,000 taels of silver."
Li Huan nodded and told Lu Youjiao to accept the wooden box and keep it safe.
"Old Poisoner, your thousand boxed meals are ready. Collect them promptly!"
In the open space below the stage, neatly stacked boxed lunches were visible.
"Next, who will challenge me?"
Li Huan asked with his head held high and a smile on his face.
Suddenly, Zhou Botong jumped over, grinning, and said, "I'll test your martial arts!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Zhou Botong unleashed his unique skill, the "Empty Fist," attacking Li Huan's face.
Li Huan's feet were nimble, and he dodged continuously, observing Zhou Botong's boxing techniques.
"Kongming Fist" is a boxing style that Zhou Botong comprehended from the "Tao Te Ching". It can be described as the most Yin and soft in the world. It is seemingly there but not there, soft yet resilient, and has a total of seventy-two moves!
Li Huan soon discovered that the "Empty Fist" was extremely exquisite and could definitely counter the "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms" if a protracted battle were to break out!
Moreover, Zhou Botong is also skilled in the Ambidextrous Technique and the Nine Yin Manual, making it extremely difficult for Li Huan to defeat him.
However, Zhou Botong has a fatal weakness.
Li Huan remained calm, stepped back several meters, and said to Huang Yaoshi, "Old Master Huang, lend me your jade flute!"
Huang Yaoshi had no time to ask further questions. He quickly drew his jade flute from his waist and threw it at Li Huan.
Upon catching the jade flute, Li Huan immediately began playing "The Song of Rising Tides on the Blue Sea"!
In an instant, Huang Yaoshi lost his balance and almost fell off his chair!
My dear son-in-law, it's one thing for you to have mastered "Flicking Finger Divine Skill", "Falling Flower Divine Sword Palm", "Orchid Flicking Acupoint Hand" and "Five Turns of Qimen", but you even play your father-in-law's signature skill of showing off and looking cool, "Blue Sea Tide Song", so mysteriously. How is your father-in-law supposed to survive in the martial arts world in the future?
Li Huan played the jade flute earnestly, the music containing profound inner strength.
Although Zhou Botong was highly skilled in martial arts, he had ulterior motives and could not let go of his past relationship with Ying Gu.
Therefore, Zhou Botong was trapped on Peach Blossom Island by Huang Yaoshi for fifteen years.
After Li Huan played for a while, Zhou Botong's face turned red.
He covered his ears with both hands and screamed hysterically, "Stop blowing! Stop blowing! I give up! I give up..."
Li Huan put down the jade flute and asked, "Are you really admitting defeat and not going back on your word?"
Zhou Botong raised his eyebrows: "If you use the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms or other martial arts, I will not be afraid. But this 'Song of the Rising Tide of the Azure Sea' makes me flustered and unable to resist..."
"I never expected you to exploit my weakness and defeat me so easily... Sigh, I really lost, I have nothing to say!"
Zhou Botong was rather simple-minded and readily accepted his defeat, allowing the Quanzhen Sect disciples to bring out several boxes of gold.
Li Huan laughed and said, "I didn't expect the Quanzhen Sect to be so wealthy and financially powerful!"
Qiu Chuji explained, "This is the savings of our sect accumulated over more than ten years. We originally intended to use it to distribute to the refugees in the north and save them from their suffering."
Li Huan said, "I have long heard of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen's 'Heavenly Dipper Formation,' which is extremely powerful. Would Daoist Qiu be willing to have a match with me?"
Qiu Chuji smiled slightly: "I greatly admire Chief Li for fighting against all the heroes on his own to raise funds. How can we use numbers to bully the few and exhaust Chief Li's strength?"
"Besides, if my seven brothers and I lose to Chief Li, where will we get the gold to buy lunch boxes? We're not competing anymore!"
After speaking, Qiu Chuji clasped his hands in a respectful gesture to Li Huan.
Li Huan secretly admired Qiu Chuji, thinking him to be upright and honest, truly a chivalrous man.
Hong Qigong stood up and walked towards Li Huan.
"Huan'er, every time we part and meet again, you always amaze this old beggar! In just a few months, your martial arts have improved by leaps and bounds, and I estimate that you have already surpassed this old beggar!"
Li Huan laughed and said, "It's a good thing that the apprentice surpasses the master! As the saying goes, the student surpasses the master!"
"Hahaha..." Hong Qigong laughed heartily, then turned to look at Guo Jing.
"Silly boy, you should learn more from your senior brother in the future. Martial arts training cannot rely solely on brute force!"
Guo Jing looked a little embarrassed, and clasped his hands in a fist and said, "Disciple will humbly listen to Master's teachings!"
Hong Qigong waved his hand, signaling Li Huan to make a move.
Li Huan laughed and said, "Master, I will only use the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms to compete with you!"
After saying that, Li Huan unleashed his first move, "The Dragon Regrets," and attacked Hong Qigong!
Bang!
Hong Qigong also used "The Dragon Regrets" and clashed palms with Li Huan, instantly unleashing an invisible shockwave!
Qiu Qianren watched with a smile, a sly glint in his eyes.
Immediately, Li Huan used a series of moves from the "Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms" to fight against Hong Qigong.
The two fought fiercely, providing a spectacular sight for the audience.
Suddenly, Hong Qigong revealed an opening, drawing Li Huan into an attack.
This action made Li Huan hesitate.
Based on Hong Qigong's martial arts skills and combat experience, there shouldn't be such a flaw; it must be a trick to lure the enemy.
Li Huan wasn't fooled. He dodged and attacked Hong Qigong's lower body.
Hong Qigong leaped up and hid behind Li Huan, whispering, "Huan'er, don't linger in the fight! Lest Qiu Qianren reap the benefits!"
Upon hearing this, Li Huan understood Hong Qigong's intention.
Sure enough, Hong Qigong revealed another flaw.
Li Huan used 30% of his strength to strike Hong Qigong's shoulder.
Bang! Hong Qigong was forced to retreat and sat down on the stage.
"Master!" Huang Rong and Guo Jing exclaimed.
Hong Qigong pretended to be panting heavily and said, "This old beggar is too old... I can't beat Li Huan... This old beggar admits defeat!"
