Chapter 121: Xu San is Stunned! Wang Ye's Guess

~8 min read 1,453 words

Seeing Lao Tianshi and Lin Xuan singing from the same hymn sheet to settle the matter.

The others could no longer sit still.

"Old Fang!"

Lu Jin looked toward Fang Dongtian and called out.

If one wanted to stop it, stopping one side would suffice.

Since it was Lin Xuan who first brought it up, then the words of Lin Xuan's elder should carry weight.

Fang Dongtian sat in his seat, hands tucked in, his head tilting from side to side, appearing as if he were about to fall asleep.

Lu Jin was left speechless.

Just a moment ago, he had looked so spirited.

"Old Lu, that's enough, what are you worried about?"

Lao Tianshi looked at Lu Jin.

"Worried that I'll have an accident, or that Lin Xuan will? Didn't we say it would be a friendly spar?"

"Tianshi, this is no joke. With the level of strength you two possess, how could it be easy to hold back? Lin Xuan is still young and doesn't know any better, but Tianshi, you are at such an advanced age, do you not know better either?"

After Lu Jin finished speaking, he thought for a moment and hurriedly added, "It's not as if there are no other ways to resolve this. Even Wang Ai has no objections, so why are you two stirring up trouble here?"

Originally, the others had various thoughts as well, but once Lu Jin said this, everyone else rolled their eyes.

Wang Ai has no objections?

Yes, he probably has no objections now, given that it's unclear whether he's even awake or not.

Lin Xuan and Tianshi exchanged a glance; Lin Xuan leaned back slightly and tilted his head to look at Lin Xuan.

"Lu Lao, this junior grew up listening to the great name of Tianshi. If there is an opportunity, naturally I would like to exchange pointers with Tianshi."

Upon hearing this, Lu Jin looked at Lin Xuan, carefully scrutinizing Lin Xuan's expression.

"How about we just forget it?"

Fang Dongtian hesitated for a moment before speaking.

Lin Xuan tilted his head to look at Fang Dongtian.

"You old man, make up your mind; there is only this one chance."

Fang Dongtian rolled his eyes at these words.

"The old Daoist is still right here, you two are treating me as if I don't exist, right?"

Lao Tianshi said, squinting his eyes.

Seeing that both Lin Xuan and Tianshi were like this, Lu Jin sighed and stopped speaking.

What on earth are these two up to?

On the other side of the spectator stand, Xu San looked toward the front stand with a hesitant expression.

"What's wrong?"

Noticing Xu San's expression, Xu Si asked.

"Something seems to have happened over there, probably still related to yesterday's affair. I have a bad premonition."

Xu San said, tilting his head to gesture.

Xu Si looked toward the direction of the front stand and swallowed hard.

"What do you think will happen?"

Naturally, Xu San could not answer Xu Si's question.

"I don't know, but things might get troublesome."

Xu San said as he stood up, only to be pulled back by Xu Si.

"What are you doing?"

"Going over to ask."

"Damn it, are you crazy? If you go over now and Lin Xuan thinks you're going there as a representative of the Company, what will you do if it causes a misunderstanding?"

"I'll just explain it."

Saying this, Xu San brushed off Xu Si's hand and walked toward the front stand.

Watching Xu San walk over, Xu Si felt his pockets, and then Lao Liao handed him a cigarette.

"Relax, Xiao San is very measured in how he does things."

Lao Liao offered a word of comfort.

"I hope nothing major happens!"

Then, Xu San had only just gone over and said a few words before turning around and coming back.

After turning around, his expression became incomparably serious.

Xu Si and Lao Liao watched as Xu San walked back.

"What's the situation?"

"Lin Xuan is going to fight Lao Tianshi!"

At Xu San's words, Xu Si failed to catch his breath and started coughing violently from the smoke.

"What?"

"I said, Lin Xuan is going to spar with Tianshi to resolve this matter."

Xu San nodded and said.

"Damn!"

Xu Si cursed.

"Holy crap!" This was Lao Liao.

The two stared at each other.

Chen Duo and Feng Baobao, who were busy playing a puzzle game together, turned their heads to look over.

"Why are you looking at me? I can't stop it. You keep an eye on things here; I'm going to report this up. Things have gotten serious."

Xu San said as he hurried away.

"Good grief, what's going on?"

Xu Si twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a look of shock.

The competition in the arena began.

The first match was Zhang Chulan against Tang Wenlong of the Tang Sect.

This time, Zhang Chulan went straight for a preemptive strike.

It could be considered as having attracted the attention of the others.

Furthermore, they only just realized that Zhang Chulan had been feigning weakness before; his underlying skills were actually this solid.

However, these tactics were still too insidious.

The other contestants preparing for their matches were also gathered in the stands, and they were startled by Zhang Chulan's sudden move.

But many people, after having interacted with Zhang Chulan, had all discovered that he was not simple.

But for now, some of them had their attention elsewhere, not on the competition.

Withdrawing his gaze from the competition arena, Wang Ye turned his head to look at the front stands.

Although he couldn't hear the sound due to the distance, he had taken in the actions that had just occurred on the front stands.

"It looks like something big is going to happen!"

Wang Ye said.

Following Wang Ye's line of sight, Zhuge Qing's narrowed eyes opened slightly.

"What big event do you think is going to happen?"

"Me? You'd be better off asking Daoist Lingyu."

Wang Ye said as he looked toward Zhang Lingyu on the other side.

"I don't know. I didn't expect the Daoist to make a move yesterday either. As for what exactly will happen, I can't imagine."

Zhang Lingyu's words left Wang Ye feeling somewhat helpless.

"Didn't you glean any hints from your master?"

"No. Yesterday, several seniors were discussing matters together, but it seems there was no result. Though, that's fair; when it involves the Ten Elders and Daoist Lin, one cannot be too cautious."

Zhang Lingyu said.

"But that Wang Ai is too weak; the Senior Brother doesn't look like he was affected at all!"

Lu Linglong, listening to the three of them talk, turned her head and chimed in.

"Why couldn't it be that this Daoist Lin is too strong?"

Wang Ye replied upon hearing this.

Lu Linglong was speechless.

"In any case, this matter is not easy to handle. After all, in this day and age, it's not easy to deal with things if one just starts fighting, especially when the target is one of the Ten Elders."

This was Wang Ye's thought.

"Anyway, the Senior Brother will definitely be fine!"

Lu Linglong said with a serious expression.

"I hope so, otherwise..."

Wang Ye shook his head slightly.

"Zhang Chulan wins!"

Rong Shan, acting as the referee, shouted, then scanned the area, waiting for people to carry Tang Wenlong away.

Having been struck by the Lightning Method, he had already nearly lost consciousness.

Zhang Lingyu straightened his clothes and turned to leave.

"Oh, it's my turn!"

Seeing Zhang Lingyu leave, Lu Linglong also realized it suddenly.

Her next opponent was Zhang Lingyu.

"I'll have to ask Brother Wang to go easy on me later!"

Zhuge Qing turned his head and said to Wang Ye.

Wang Ye laughed it off upon hearing this.

"Aiya, Brother Zhuge, you're joking. I've often heard of the great name of the Marquis's Strange Gate while on the mountain; I'll need Brother Zhuge to go easy on me."

On the front stands, Lin Xuan sat in his seat, watching the arena with a calm expression.

However, the cinnabar fire was burning fiercely within his body.

After Lao Tianshi had agreed, he didn't know how, but he had actually started to feel a bit fired up.

And the people around him also felt the Qi surging from Lin Xuan.

It felt like a terrifying temperature, yet it had no effect on the surroundings.

"Senior Brother, watch closely!"

Lu Linglong's shout in the arena brought Lin Xuan back to his senses, and he looked toward the arena.

Lu Linglong placed her hands around her mouth to form a megaphone and shouted.
