Chapter 181: Well Done!
The main entrance of Lingzhou City’s Martial Arts Department (MAD).
Duan Tianhe and Cheng Dongfeng were standing on both sides of the entrance, with several other leaders of the MAD.
An off-road vehicle was slowly approaching, before stopping before the MAD building.
The door opened, and a middle-aged man who looked around forty wearing training robes stepped out.
Duan Tianhe and Cheng Dongfeng went forward to meet him and offered a fist-palm salute, addressing him as Grandmaster Ji.
Grandmaster was an honorific for all individuals rank-seven and above, which was why both rank-eights and nines were addressed so as well.
Incidentally, the middle-aged man before them was a rank-nine martial artist.
His name was Ji Dongxu, an elite of Xibei’s Ji clan.
The Xibei Ji clan’s base was in Old Xi’an, and it was rumored that the clan was linked to the Jiang clan of the Yellow Emperor’s tomb, which was one of the Five Holy Grounds of martial arts. When it comes to their depth, the Ji clan was stronger than the Ji clan, Murong clan, and the Long clan, who were the three great clans of Jiangnan!
On the surface, the Ji clan was presided over by a divine-tier elite, and rumor even has it that there was a Void-tier elder still alive.
Wang Hou recently reached the void-tier, but was known as Jiang He’s First Man, because he was the first Void-elite who ascended to void-tier. Moreover, being the highest authority of the MAD and considered a public figure, Wang Hou was well known to all citizens, martial artists, and Awakened.
The First Man of the Hua Nation has a certain extent of standard.
But as a matter of fact, Wang Hou was not the only void-tier elite in the Hua Nation.
For example, each of the five sacred grounds had more than one void-tier. Even Dong Haichuan, the founding master of the Eight Trigrams School was already void-tier, and since people of that level could live up to five hundred, no one could know if certain ancient schools or martial clans had such ancient monsters hidden behind their doors.
After some self-introductions, Ji Dongxu was more or less acquainted with everyone.
“Thanks for making the journey, Grandmaster Ji,” Duan Tinahe said then. “I’ve got my people to prepare a banquet so that you may rest up, this way please…”
“Then I shall not hold back.”
Ji Dongxu laughed out loud. “I like the hand-eaten lamb in Lingzhou city a lot. I’ve often come by to have it.”
Duan Tianhe breathed a sigh of inward relief at that.
He had been worried that the disciple of an old martial clan sent to guard Lingzhou city might prove arrogant and difficult, but it seemed that his worries were excessive.
They were having a lively chat and about to get on a ride to the hotel when Ji Dongxu’s eyes moved towards the direction of Jinyintan Village. Even from a dozen kilometers away, the dull explosion did not escape Ji Dongxu’s notice.
And it was not just him—both Duan Tianhe and Cheng Dongfeng heard the explosion as well.
The trio traded a look before all of them leapt up to the top of the MAD tower and looked out, only to find flames rising into the air at Jinyintan Village.
Soon, a powerful aura burst out…
Ju Dongxu’s scowled and somberly said, “Powerful… even from this distance, I could feel a strong threat. His ability is perhaps nearing divine-tier!”
