Chapter 22: Master, I Was Already a Master Five Years Ago!

After hearing Chu Qingshan's curiosity, Wang Yunfu sighed and said, "Ah, this treasure is nice, but it's really a pity. I've studied it a lot and still haven't figured out its use; otherwise I wouldn't have asked you all to come help me figure out how to use it."

Upon hearing Wang Yunfu's solemn words, everyone present fell into a solemn expression.

At that moment, the old man sitting beside Wang Yunfu suddenly said, "Mr. Wang, why don't let me give it a try?"

Hearing the old man want to try, Wang Yunfu's face instantly showed an excited expression.

"Master Tang, are you serious? You really intend to give it a try?"

Wang Yunfu could hardly believe it; after all, a master like Tang Yunshan—just coming over would already be giving him face, let alone actually making a move.

He didn't even dare to think about it.

But unexpectedly, Tang Yunshan really intended to make a move!

The next second, Tang Yunshan picked up the Jiulong Swallowing Pearl, examined it up and down, and immediately a hint of martial vigor surged from his body.

At that moment, the Jiulong Swallowing Pearl instantly transformed; the nine true dragons on the pillar all rose up, emanating a powerful aura.

Seeing this, Wang Yunfu and everyone present were all stunned.

"What, what a divine miracle!"

"Heavens, with such ability, probably only Master Tang could pull it off—no one else could!"

Everyone present began to flatter Tang Yunshan.

And Tang Yunshan gladly accepted their flattery.

Only Jiangnan sat there, slowly sipping tea, his face showing a look of disdain.

This little trick, he actually knows it too, but it's simply too simple.

For him, it offers no challenge at all, and is even particularly boring.

"Heh, how is it that no one else besides him can perform this?"

"Isn't that statement a bit too funny?"

Jiangnan then spoke up.

Hearing that, everyone's faces changed instantly, and they all turned to look at Jiangnan.

Tang Yunshan likewise darkened his stare, fixed his gaze on Jiangnan, and said, "Kid, what do you mean? Do you actually know how to do it?"

"You're barely over twenty; at that age you'd be my junior, yet you dare to speak such arrogant words before me, a master?"

Tang Yunshan gave Wang Yunfu no face at all, and retorted at Jiangnan on the spot.

Hearing that, Jiangnan frowned, turned to Wang Yunfu, and said, "Looks like you'll have to pay this old man's medical bills later."

As soon as Jiangnan finished speaking, his figure appeared before Tang Yunshan.

Tang Yunshan hadn't even reacted before Jiangnan punched him, sending him flying hard to the side.

"Master?"

"I was already a master five years ago."

Jiangnan said this in a very casual tone.

Hearing this, everyone present felt a jolt in their hearts.

Jiangnan was already a master five years ago?

Just how terrifying must Jiangnan's strength be now?

No one present dared to imagine; they all widened their eyes and stared at Jiangnan.

Jiangnan merely glanced at the crowd, then immediately placed his hand on the Jiulong Swallowing Pearl.

The next second!

Boom!

The illusory figures of the nine divine dragons instantly appeared on the ceiling, and in unison they all bowed toward the direction where Jiangnan stood.

"What, what immense power is needed to wield such divine ability!"

"Yeah, this ability is far stronger than Master Tang's—it's practically a celestial miracle!"

"Truly heroes emerge from youth; the hidden dragons of our China's martial world are as numerous as stars!"

Everyone present began to flatter Jiangnan.

But the unanimous feeling was fear of Jiangnan.

Such a young master, yet possessing strength beyond that of a master!

Such a powerful existence might not even be found in all of China; it hasn't been seen in a hundred years!

"Young Master Jiang, isn't this a bit too ruthless?"

Watching Jiangnan display this strength, Wang Yunfu felt like crying but had no tears.

Because Jiangnan's punch just now had directly broken the floor of his house.

But he knew Jiangnan's status was something he could never afford to offend.

So he could only stand beside Jiangnan and urge him not to strike too hard.

Otherwise, the entire Wang Family Courtyard wouldn't be enough for Jiangnan to demolish!

"Oh, then I'll just be a little less harsh?" Jiangnan joked, then immediately sat back in his seat.

"Mr. Wang Yunfu, if this treasure is all you have, it's really wasting my time; do you have anything more interesting?"

Jiangnan said this while sipping tea.

Hearing that, Wang Yunfu helplessly smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang, this already counts as a treasure; the other things, even if I had money, I might not be able to buy them!"

Upon hearing Wang Yunfu's words, Jiangnan was speechless and said, "Then you summoned me here just to look at this?"

"Hurry up, bring out all your good stuff, don't hide it!"

Jiangnan then said directly to Wang Yunfu.

And upon hearing Jiangnan's words, Wang Yunfu replied helplessly, "Young Master Jiang, I'm basically afraid of you!"

"Hey, I'll take it now."

"Come, bring that thing out as well!"

At Wang Yunfu's command, the servant immediately walked toward the outside.

In no time.

The servant, holding a Black Jade Pendant carefully, walked in right there.

After that, Wang Yunfu took the Black Jade Pendant again, cupped it in his hands, and handed it to Jiangnan.

"Jiangnan, this pendant might enter your Fa Eye; would you like to take a look yourself?"

"Oh, what's special about this pendant?"

Wang Yunfu, hearing Jiangnan's question, immediately replied, "Jiangnan, when I first got this pendant, I heard that if an ordinary person wears it, it can extend life and make one full of vigor; if a martial practitioner wears it, it can even advance one's cultivation by a step each day. It's a great item!"

Upon hearing this, Jiangnan instantly released a burst of energy and inspected the inside of the pendant.

About half a minute later, Jiangnan set the pendant down and muttered, "This pendant is indeed fine, but unfortunately it offers no help at all to a martial cultivator's training; however, for ordinary people, it's a good treasure."

"Set a price for this pendant; I'll buy it and then give it to someone."
