Chapter 177: Yan Nantian's Hidden Treasure

This young man was naturally Yu Liancheng.

During the time he spent traveling through Jiangnan with Feng Siniang and Geshu Bing, he divided his attention, studying all of Geshu Tian's supreme arts to further consolidate his own foundation. Finally, he opened the Stone Gate and entered this world.

——《Handsome Siblings》.

The ordinary experts of this world might not be considered particularly brilliant, but there are three world-renowned supreme masters.

Yan Nantian, who holds the titles of "World's Number One Hero" and "World's Number One Divine Sword," and the two masters of Yihua Palace, First Palace Master Yao Yue and Lianxing, who have dominated the Edo for decades.

The high level of these three individuals' martial arts needs no further elaboration.

Any one of them possesses the power to stir up the winds and clouds.

It is only a pity that Yan Nantian has become a living dead man, and the Mingyu Divine Art of Yao Yue and Lianxing has remained stagnant at the eighth level for many years, unable to progress.

After arriving in this world, Yu Liancheng once quietly paid a visit to Villain's Valley to take a look at the living dead man, Yan Nantian.

With his medical skills, he could not cure Yan Nantian for the time being, but he left a note; if Wan Chunliu follows his method, Yan Nantian should wake up earlier than he originally would have.

Furthermore, there are many supreme arts in this world that can be called earth-shattering, such as the Wedding Dress Divine Skill, Mingyu Divine Art, Five Ultimates Divine Art... If he could get his hands on them, he thought it would be of great benefit to himself.

Although the Treasure Map in Tie Xinlan's hand is fake, it coincidentally points out the general area of another treasure, and that treasure contains the crystallization of the hard work of the "Five Ultimates of Heaven and Earth" and the "Peerless Hero" Ouyang Ting—the Five Ultimates Divine Art.

Yu Liancheng looked at Tie Xinlan, who was unconscious on the ground, remained silent for a long while, and smiled slightly: "Miss Tie, I know you are already awake. Get up and let us have a good talk."

Tie Xinlan, however, continued to lie on the grass, motionless, her chest rising and falling slightly as if she were asleep.

Yu Liancheng sighed lightly: "Since you refuse to get up, I can only do it myself. I won't hide it from you, although I am a gentleman, I am quite interested in searching people, especially beautiful women like you."

Having said that, he was about to lean down to grope and search.

Tie Xinlan suddenly rolled over and unleashed her light-body technique, wanting to escape.

However, a blur flashed before her eyes; Yu Liancheng had already intercepted her, a faint smile on his face.

Tie Xinlan gritted her teeth and suddenly pounced toward Yu Liancheng.

Since she had already determined that the other party was not a ghost, there was nothing to be afraid of.

One could see fists striking down as densely as raindrops; although she looked gentle and delicate, her moves were like those of a madman—they were precisely the "Crazy One Hundred and Eight Strikes" that "Mad Lion" Tie Zhan was famous for in the Edo.

Tie Xinlan being able to escape all the way from the Central Plains to this place had no small connection to this martial art.

Yu Liancheng seemed not to have moved at all, yet he had already caused all her moves to miss; upon seeing the "thirty-second strike," he shook his head.

This martial art's moves were simple and direct, without many exquisite variations, and every strike revealed a sense of madness, as if she wished to perish together with her opponent.

If it were an ordinary martial artist, they would inevitably be intimidated, but if she encountered a true expert, it would undoubtedly be seeking her own death.

What's more, this martial art is only suitable for a martial fanatic like "Mad Lion" Tie Zhan; it is truly difficult for a young girl like Tie Xinlan to truly unleash its power.

Yu Liancheng flicked his finger, and a burst of internal energy landed lightly on Tie Xinlan's body, instantly causing her to lose all strength, and she sat limply on the ground.

"What exactly do you want to do? I... I don't have any Treasure Map at all," Tie Xinlan said, biting her lip.

"I not only know you have a Treasure Map," Yu Liancheng's gaze had already fallen on Tie Xinlan's boots, and he said with a faint smile: "And I also know the Treasure Map is in your boots."

"You... are you human or a ghost?" Originally, the secret of the Treasure Map in the boots was known only to Tie Xinlan herself, and coupled with the other party's strange and formidable internal energy, her face turned pale again.

"I am, of course, human," Yu Liancheng shrugged: "You only need to show me the Treasure Map for a look. By the way, I can give you an extra piece of information: your father is not in the Villain's Valley on Kunlun Shan."

Tie Xinlan's delicate body shook again: "How do you know?"

"This is a bit troublesome to explain." Yu Liancheng flicked his finger again, and a gust of wind from his finger flew out, hitting the grass in the distance. Immediately, a "yowl" of a scream was heard, and a figure jumped up.

This was a teenager of thirteen or fourteen, still retaining his childishness, with a long scar on his face from the corner of his eye to the corner of his mouth.

This scar did not make him look ugly; on the contrary, it gave him an indescribable attraction. Whoever saw him would think this person was a beautiful boy, an extremely beautiful boy.

"I was sleeping here, who hit me? Who hit me?" The boy shook his head and looked around, but he kept paying attention to Yu Liancheng and Tie Xinlan.

"Xiaoyuer," Tie Xinlan couldn't help but call out when she saw that person.

"This stupid woman." Jiang Xiaoyu's mouth twitched. In fact, he had known Tie Xinlan earlier and had a very good impression of her. He was just preparing to use a method to save Tie Xinlan from Yu Liancheng's hands when he was discovered.

He had originally intended to pretend for a while, but he didn't expect to be called out by Tie Xinlan.

Women are indeed all fools.

"This 'fish that slipped through the net' grew up in Villain's Valley; whether your father is in Villain's Valley, you can tell by asking him," Yu Liancheng pointed at Xiaoyuer.

Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes rolled around: "This brother is joking. I am so kind, how could I be from Villain's Valley..."

Before he finished speaking, Yu Liancheng already smiled: "Little devil, people who don't tell the truth need to have their bottoms spanked until they bloom."

"This big brother is right. I did grow up in Villain's Valley. Villain's Valley is my home, and I am very familiar with the Five Great Villains." Jiang Xiaoyu's eyes rolled around, and he had already unconsciously told the truth: "There has never been a guy named 'Mad Lion' Tie Zhan in Villain's Valley; there are a few 'silly dogs,' though."

He was very surprised in his heart. He had only left Villain's Valley yesterday, and today his background was called out. Could it be that this person knows Uncle Li, Aunt Tu, and the others, and they told this person about him?

But this person's martial arts are truly very high. If Uncle Li, Aunt Tu, and the others had such friends, why would they need to hide and not dare to see people?

"Could it really not be in Villain's Valley?" Tie Xinlan's heart stirred again, and she already believed it seven or eight parts, then said: "May I ask, sir, where exactly is my father now? I hope you can tell me."

Yu Liancheng, however, wore a smile and did not speak.

Tie Xinlan bit her lip, hesitated for a moment, and said: "Fine, I will give you the Treasure Map."

"No need, I just want to take a look." Yu Liancheng flicked his finger again.

"I hope you can keep your promise." Tie Xinlan regained her strength, glanced at Yu Liancheng, took off her boots, took out a Treasure Map from the soles of the shoes, and opened it against the wind, accompanied by an indescribable smell.

This was also the reason why Yu Liancheng did not take the Treasure Map himself; beautiful girls also have foot odor, not to mention that this Treasure Map did not know how long it had been hidden in the soles of Tie Xinlan's shoes.

Yu Liancheng looked at it for two seconds and nodded: "That's enough."

Tie Xinlan hurriedly put the map away and looked at Yu Liancheng eagerly.

Yu Liancheng smiled: "Actually, I only know that your father obtained a secret letter, and the letter was about a map of Wumingdao. According to legend, as long as you find Wumingdao, you can be invincible in the world. I'm afraid he has already boarded Wumingdao now. When you see him again, perhaps his martial arts will already be the head of the Ten Great Villains."

"This... this..." Tie Xinlan was stunned, and then hurriedly asked: "Where is Wumingdao?"

"I do not know either."

When he said the first word, Yu Liancheng had already unleashed his light-body technique and swept away. By the time the fourth word reached Tie Xinlan's ears, only a faint human shadow that was almost impossible to see remained of him.

"Hiss..." Tie Xinlan gasped. This person's light-body technique was so high that not to mention she had never seen it, she wouldn't even dare to imagine it.

For an expert like this, even if he wasn't the opponent of the Yan Nantian of those years, I'm afraid he wouldn't lose by much. Why would he need to go looking for some so-called treasure?
