I thought gaining the Qingyang Spring would strengthen me further and allow me to enter the Renbang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But today I realize I’ve been a frog in a well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Too sheltered by the sect—I’m a flower grown in a greenhouse.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Within the Great Jin, the Yun Ding Sect’s connections ensure constant favors, so I plan to leave the Great Jin and head to Dongqi.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only through a hundred temperings does steel form.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Dingli glanced at Lin Daoqi, said nothing more, and descended the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Chen Weiquan also sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how cunning the plot, under such absolute power, all would be reduced to dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No matter how well Lin Daoqi and Wang Dingli had planned, no matter how intricate their schemes, the single phrase “dragons do not dwell with snakes” rendered all their efforts futile and turned them into fools.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wang Dingli’s journey to Dongqi was meant to hone himself—but was it not also an escape?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he remained in the capital, after today’s events spread, Wang Dingli would surely be mocked by the world. But Wang Dingli was not the worst off—Lin Daoqi, sitting there on the ground, was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Showing off cleverness, boosting one’s reputation—it was nothing but self-inflicted humiliation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After today, Dou Changsheng will surely attract the attention of the Wu Lin Tower; in the next Renbang ranking, he will surely appear on the list, though his rank won’t be high—that’s the common fate of first-time entrants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by challenging and defeating a Renbang hero can you directly replace their rank; otherwise, even if you accomplish earth-shattering deeds, the Wu Lin Tower will suppress your ranking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan sighed again inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng is only eighteen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could he be so monstrous?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Together, we were crushed by a single strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The gap in strength was utterly despairing; Chen Weiquan knew that even if he perfected the Seven Injury Fist and greatly increased his combat power, he still had no confidence to fight Dou Changsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The difference would merely be from being defeated in one blow, to being defeated in three.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next decade of the Jianghu’s younger generation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Truly belongs to Dou Changsheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan lowered his hand, pulled a torn handkerchief from his shredded clothing, and gently wiped his cheek as he spoke to the returning Zi Yang Daoist: “Please, Elder Zi Yang, prepare a side chamber for me—I need to wash and freshen up.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist nodded slightly and personally led Chen Weiquan away, guiding him to a guest room. After closing the door, Zi Yang’s gaze grew deep as he asked in a low voice, “How was it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan sat down, tore off his clothing, dipped a towel into a basin of water, and began wiping his body as he spoke: “Dou Changsheng breaks all methods with sheer power.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lin Daoqi’s scheme has failed—and so has mine.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I failed to draw closer to Dou Changsheng, to monitor him near his side and gather intelligence for the Chancellor on the military payroll case.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist smiled bitterly: “Dou Changsheng is only eighteen.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I can’t fathom how the Wang family raised him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To break through to Xiantian at this age is already a genius.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“To slay a Xiantian Zhenjing? That qualifies as an extraordinary genius—but after today, only ‘child of heaven’ can describe him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Calling him a genius is an insult to Dou Changsheng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That sword strike—I recognized it as the Xiantian Zhenjing martial art, ‘Wuliang Sword Art.’ It originated from the Wuliang Sword Sect, which was destroyed a century ago. Since then, the Wuliang Sword Art has spread widely, and many sects have recorded it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“My San Yang Sect has it too, and many disciples practice it—but to reach Dou Changsheng’s level? Unprecedented.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sword qi covering the heavens and earth, forming a river of sword qi—how immense must his Xiantian inner qi be?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The ‘San Yuan Gui Qi Jue’ is not known for its vast inner qi reserves. Dou Changsheng must have had some extraordinary encounter.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan shook his head: “At eighteen, achieving this—how could he not have had a miraculous encounter?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“All the prodigies at the top of the Renbang have had their own unique fortunes and miracles.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This has struck me hard. I thought being born in the capital meant I’d already seen the world’s heroes—even those at the top of the Renbang. Though stronger than me now, I believed that given time, I’d match them.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now I see—I underestimated the heroes of the world.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Like Wang Dingli, I’ve been sheltered too well, always holding back, never witnessing the true strength of these prodigies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist’s expression turned grave as he spoke solemnly: “Dou Changsheng’s strength far exceeds the intelligence reports.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Among those on San Yang Mountain, only the three lords of the three peaks—and the three top disciples of Qingyang—could surpass Dou Changsheng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But those three disciples are not on San Yang Mountain—they’re all wandering the Jianghu.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan said: “A Xiantian Zhenjing of Five Qi Ascending cannot possibly defeat Dou Changsheng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Only someone like you—a Xiantian Xuanjing with Three Flowers Converging—stands a chance.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dou Changsheng revealed his power today not merely to resolve the dispute, but also to stir up trouble.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If he truly suffered harm, suspicion would inevitably fall on you, Hong Yang, and Qing Yang.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan reached out, pulled on clothes he had prepared earlier, and snapped irritably: “You are an Elder of the San Yang Sect, Lord of Zi Yang Peak, stationed here on San Yang Mountain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The military payroll vanished nearby—surely you have no leads at all?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist sighed: “The Chancellor summoned me to the capital personally and questioned me face-to-face.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But I truly don’t know.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan stared fixedly at Zi Yang Daoist—he knew that if this man lied, the Chancellor’s power would never let him leave the capital. Yet precisely because of that, it felt absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist is one of the senior figures of the San Yang Sect, with many disciples. Any whisper or movement here could not escape his notice—yet the payroll vanished mysteriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan’s expression darkened: “The payroll’s loss isn’t just the silver—it includes the armor and battle flags of the Xuanjia Cavalry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Silver and minor treasures are trivial—just squeeze the people harder if needed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But the Xuanjia Cavalry’s equipment is critical. If the Western Qin or Dongqi obtain it, they could uncover the secrets of this elite force—and replicate it.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If controlled by certain figures within our own realm, it could be used to launch a coup at a decisive moment.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Most importantly, the payroll’s disappearance has severely damaged the Chancellor’s reputation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone is slandering him, claiming he stole the payroll.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now the Emperor suspects him. The northern frontier is plotting. Though Yu Yun, the Grand General of Zhenbei, is imprisoned, he still watches like a crouching tiger, waiting for the Chancellor to slip—then he’ll strike with a savage bite.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I was sent here by the Chancellor’s direct order: you must assist me in investigating the payroll theft.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist hesitated: “Investigating the payroll theft is my duty—I serve the Chancellor, it is my obligation.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But the payroll theft—how could someone like us possibly get involved?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lately, many have come to San Yang Mountain because of the Qingyang Spring’s opening—among them are hidden many powerful figures.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chen Weiquan cut him off: “You don’t need to find where the payroll is—any clue counts as merit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What is our strength?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You know your limits—surely the Chancellor knows too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Chancellor is too wise to place all hope on you and me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We are merely one of the Chancellor’s many branches. The true task will be entrusted to a divine master.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zi Yang Daoist nodded obediently, appearing utterly subservient to the Chancellor—but within, he harbored a treasonous thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Chancellor is so furious, claiming it has nothing to do with him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But is that the truth?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though we serve the Chancellor, we are mere pawns—not part of his inner circle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What does the Chancellor truly intend? How could we possibly know?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps the Chancellor is crying wolf!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After an indeterminate length of time,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daoqi was repeatedly prodded, finally snapping out of his daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked up to see a middle-aged man—of average build, square face, thick eyebrows, high nose bridge, and a dignified appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t help but exclaim: “Seventeenth Uncle!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Shiqi looked down upon the disheveled Lin Daoqi and shook his head: “You shouldn’t have come this time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Shiqi sighed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If anyone is to blame, it can only be Lin Daoqi’s bad fortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng’s arrival this time came without any prior notice—he cut in mid-process, something no one could have anticipated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Dou Changsheng is simply too strong.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Shiqi now understood Fire Cloud True Person—it wasn’t flattery; Dou Changsheng truly possessed such ability.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dou Changsheng will enter the Human List in twelve years; subtract the two years needed for growth, and by age twenty, few on the Human List will be his match. This decade belongs to Dou Changsheng—there is not a drop of falsehood in it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be born in the same era as Dou Changsheng is truly their misfortune.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the generation of the Demon Master, who wasn’t repeatedly crushed by him? Even as they strained to catch up, they could never glimpse his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Dominating the Jianghu for a decade—how unbelievable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, such a figure has appeared once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Wang clan of Xiangzhou is truly favored by heaven.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even after the death of one Great King, an even more outstanding Young King upheld the Wang clan—and now another Wang clan Divine Son has emerged.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Shiqi patted Lin Daoqi on the shoulder and said, “You are different from Dou Changsheng.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He is brilliant, a child of heaven.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But the risks he faces are ten times, a hundred times greater than yours.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“In Southern Chen, a Demon Master arose—single-handedly, he entered the imperial palace three times, slapped the emperor, slept on the dragon bed, and seized the imperial sword.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If Great Jin produced another such terrifying figure, how would the emperor hold his ground?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Would he also turn heaven upside down?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The emperor would surely lie awake at night, unable to eat or sleep.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Great King died by the Demon Master’s hand; Dou Changsheng shares blood with the Great King. Even if the Demon Master doesn’t care, the countless Demon Sons and Demon Grandsons of the Heavenly Demon Palace, eager to please their master, certainly won’t remain idle.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dou Changsheng’s future is destined to be filled with calamities and countless enemies.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is the price a child of heaven pays for growth—inevitably, blood and storm.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But you are different. Your talent is limited; at best, you’ll rank mid-tier on the Human List, unable to compare with them. The enemies you attract, the Lin clan can withstand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dou Changsheng is arrogant and bold—he dares to provoke the Chancellor and personally investigates the military payroll theft on Sanyang Mountain.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“He seeks righteousness; he seeks loyalty.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You appear bold, but inwardly you know your limits—you dare not delve into the payroll scandal.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Even if you cause trouble, you won’t stir up major chaos.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Dou Changsheng’s future is assuredly among the top few on the Earth List, a figure whose words shape the world—but only if he survives.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your strengths are clear: you’re hard to kill. In the future, you may become a Divine Master, watching the clouds of the Jianghu from afar. If fortune favors you, you might even become an Earth List Master and protect your clan.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Perhaps a hundred years from now, you’ll still be alive, a pillar of the righteous path, a revered elder of the Jianghu, while Dou Changsheng has long turned to dust.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Daoqi sighed too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His eyes, filled with sorrow, fixed on Lin Shiqi.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His heart didn’t feel better—it felt worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is this even human speech?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Shiqi patted Lin Daoqi’s shoulder again and said, “I understand your thoughts now.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I went through the same.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Jianghu is full of talents—we are destined to be their stepping stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The Jianghu is vast; we don’t need to see the view from the summit. The scenery halfway up the mountain is fine too.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let them fight among themselves.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Just live your own life well.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Come on. Today’s humiliation—when Dou Changsheng rises to number one on the Human List, shining with glory, you’ll realize this too is a kind of honor.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Not everyone can face the number one on the Human List and live.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>PS: Six thousand yesterday, ten thousand today—sixteen thousand total in two days.
