Chapter 109 - Miss Feng San’s Surprise
Chapter 109: Miss Feng San’s Surprise
“There are troublemakers!”
More and more people were on the street.
Many people gathered around.
It was uncommon to see a martial arts hall being challenged, so the people in the city also wanted to join in the fun.
The doors of the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall slowly opened.
The head instructor of the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall opened the doors with a terrible look on his face.
Being challenged early in the morning would definitely not be fun for anyone.
“The Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall is challenging us?”
The head instructor sneered, obviously unaware that their hall master Xue Chuntong had been killed while trying to ambush Xu Ning.
Xue Chuntong had only told a handful of people in the martial arts hall about his scheme, and all of them were high-level officials in the martial arts hall.
“Ask for your boss to come out.”
Xu Ning took a step forward and pushed the head instructor away. “I want to learn martial arts from him.”
“Who are you?”
The instructors in the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall began to move from the backyard to the foyer.
The instructors of the two sides faced each other aggressively, as if a fight could break out at any moment.
“Xu Ning, Deputy Hall Master of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.”
Xu Ning did not conceal his identity. He directly revealed his status.
These words weakened the other party’s momentum.
Xu Ning was a deputy hall master, so a head instructor was definitely no match for him.
Just when the instructors of Chuxue Martial Arts Hall were at a loss, another person walked out from the backyard.
The newcomer was a middle-aged woman. She wore a masculine battle outfit with her hair tied high.
“Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall, Xu Ning?”
The middle-aged woman had obviously heard Xu Ning’s introduction just now, as she had a surprised expression on her face.
She was the Deputy Hall Master of the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall, Ding Jianqiong.
She knew that Xue Chuntong and Xie Ninghe went to ambush Xu Ning this morning.
But right now, this person claimed that he was Xu Ning, which puzzled Ding Jianqiong a little.
‘Didn’t Xu Ning go out of the city today?’
Ding Jianqiong thought to herself, ‘But if this person hasn’t been tricked out of the city, then why hasn’t the hall master come back yet?’
“Yes, I am Xu Ning.”
Xu Ning stared at Ding Jianqiong.
Ding Jianqiong didn’t hide her aura, so Xu Ning could easily tell that she was also a martial artist in the intention realm, but she must have recently advanced to the intention realm.
“It’s perfect that you are a martial artist in the intention realm. I was afraid that you might be too weak and would refuse my challenge.”
Xu Ning invited her to a spar. “Please do me a favor and spar with me. If you refuse or lose, you must hand over the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall’s plate.”
Ding Jianqiong frowned when she heard these words.
Generally speaking, if there was a challenge between martial arts halls, the loser would at most lose some reputation.
If he was here to grab their plate, then he was ready for a head-on fight.
“Please come to the backyard.”
Ding Jianqiong was in a tough spot.
She had a terrible feeling in her heart.
“Just here, no need for all that.”
Xu Ning waved his hand, and the head instructor of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall cleared up the space.
The crowd outside applauded for a while. They were all excited to watch the fight.
“Then please.”
Ding Jianqiong’s face was pale.
The instructors of the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall also stepped back to make room.
‘This person is not easy to deal with.’
Ding Jianqiong looked at Xu Ning cautiously.
She only hoped that Hall Master Xue Chuntong could come back soon.
“Deputy Hall Master Xu, apologies in advance!”
Ding Jianqiong took the lead in the fight.
The only perfection realm external skill she had mastered was a palm technique.
Ding Jianqiong was agile. She rushed in front of Xu Ning. At the same time, she waved her palm, aiming to hit Xu Ning on the chest.
Xu Ning didn’t try to dodge at all. He just threw out a punch in retaliation.
The punch hit her palm!
Bang!
Ding Jianqiong was pushed away. She slammed into the wall, and blood began to pour from her mouth.
Instantly, the crowd outside went silent.
“Okay!”
After a while, everyone reacted. There was a sudden burst of cheers.
The spectators outside the door and the instructors of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall all began to roar.
The Chuxue Martial Arts Hall was silent.
“That’s that.”
Xu Ning glanced at Han Yue. “Take the plate.”
“Understood.”
Han Yue smiled and looked at Xu Ning. Her look of worship became stronger and stronger.
What’s terrifying about Xu Ning was not only his strength, but also his speed of improvement.
“Wait a second!”
At this time, on the side of the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall, an older instructor came out.
“Taking the plate is a bit too ridiculous.” The person said, “According to the rules, you have to defeat the strongest person of a martial arts hall to be eligible for plate taking. Our hall master is not here yet, and you have not defeated him yet, so on what grounds do you deserve to take our plate?”
“Your hall master?”
Xu Ning looked at the man, then turned his eyes to Ding Jianqiong, who was struggling to stand up. “He’s not coming back.”
‘Not coming back?’
Just when the others were still wondering, Ding Jianqiong’s pupils shrunk, and her face suddenly turned pale.
“Hall Master…”
Ding Jianqiong’s head was spinning.
Ding Jianqiong thought back to Xu Ning’s strength just now. Ding Jianqiong finally understood Xu Ning’s words; she knew why Xue Chuntong had not returned.
‘Hall Master Xue Chuntong failed to ambush Xu Ning. I’m afraid he’s already…’
“You!”
The instructor still wanted to argue with Xu Ning, but was suddenly stopped by Ding Jianqiong.
“Shut up!”
Ding Jianqiong’s body trembled slightly. “Let him take it.”
“What?!”
The instructors at the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall’s side all looked confused.
“All of you, shut up.”
Ding Jianqiong’s eyes swept over everyone coldly. “I said, let him take it.”
The foyer was silent.
Ding Jianqiong finally understood why Xu Ning came to the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall. It was not to challenge her nor to spar, but to destroy the hall.
“Han Yue, after you take the plate, stay behind.”
Xu Ning knew that Ding Jianqiong had already guessed what was going on. “Talk to the deputy hall master about what happens next.”
Xu Ning’s words were vague. Most of the people present did not understand him.
But Ding Jianqiong knew that the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall was going to be divided.
…
After leaving the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall, Xu Ning went straight to the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall.
When Xu Ning came to the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall, the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall was already empty.
The Fenghe Martial Arts Hall instructors who pretended to be part of the caravan fled back to the city and brought news that Xu Ning had killed Xie Ninghe and Xue Chuntong.
The news scared the instructors of the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall, and they all fled and ran away.
When Xu Ning saw this, he was baffled. He ordered someone to pick up the martial arts hall plate and take the evidence of Xie Ninghe’s connection with Du Che. Afterwards, he went back to the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.
The next step was to take over the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall and the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall before the other parties in the canton city could react.
Xu Ning was not good at doing these things, so he just left it to Han Yue and other people in the martial arts hall.
Now, Xu Ning only needed to wait for everything to be done and get his share of the profits.
Over the next few days, the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall took over the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall and the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall. The news of this soon spread in the martial arts circle of the canton city.
Instantly, the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall went from an ordinary martial arts power to one of the top powerhouses, second only to the three family clans of Chun Rin Canton.
Xu Ning’s name was also respected by many martial arts masters.
…
Chun Rin Canton.
Feng family.
Miss Feng San’s boudoir.
“Miss San.”
A maid came in from outside the house and saluted Feng Chengyu.
Feng Chengyu was currently wearing a thin dress that outlined her graceful figure.
“Just now someone came and said that Fourth Young Master asked Father Master if he could obtain the rights to govern the newly developed pure mine of the family.”
The maid reported respectfully.
Feng Chengyu frowned upon hearing this.
“Did my father agree?”
Feng Chengyu asked coldly.
“No, Father Master is still deciding.”
The maid responded.
Feng Chengyu snorted coldly. Her eyes showed dissatisfaction. “My fourth brother always goes against me.”
“If I wasn’t a woman, he would have never gotten the chance to compete with me.”
Feng Chengyu was filled with hatred. This was not the first time that her fourth brother Feng Haoqi got into a confrontation with her.
Feng Chengyu’s eldest brother and second brother, the true pillars of the Feng family, had already become official disciples of the Yuelan Faction.
The two younger siblings were both born from mistresses, not to mention they were still young.
Hence, in the future, the authority of the family would either fall in the hands of Feng Chengyu or Feng Haoqi.
Feng Chengyu and Feng Haoqi were both born from mistresses.
But in terms of talent, Feng Chengyu was one level higher than Feng Haoqi.
But compared to Feng Chengyu, Feng Haoqi had a huge advantage, which was that he was a male.
It was precisely because of this that the elders of the family were more inclined to let Feng Haoqi become the successor of the Feng family.
Fortunately, in the Feng family’s past history, there had been women in powerful positions, so Feng Chengyu did not lose the right to compete to be the successor of the family.
Faced with Feng Chengyu’s complaints, the maid dared not speak in fear that she might offend Feng Chengyu.
“You can go…”
Although Feng Chengyu was dissatisfied, she was helpless for the time being
“Miss San, one more thing…”
The maid said cautiously.
“What?”
Feng Chengyu controlled her mood and asked.
“The two martial arts halls in the canton city, the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall and the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall, were recently unplated.” The maid said, “There are already many forces who have gone out to take their share of the loot. Miss, should we intervene?”
“The Fenghe Martial Arts Hall and the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall…”
Feng Chengyu muttered to herself as she thought.
She had heard of these two martial arts halls before.
Although they were not the top martial arts forces in the canton city, they were quite famous.
Feng Chengyu didn’t expect their plates to be taken away so suddenly.
“Who did this?”
Feng Chengyu asked.
“A martial arts hall called the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.”
The maid answered truthfully.
“The Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall?”
Feng Chengyu’s expression was weird. “Are you sure?”
“That’s right, Miss San.” The maid quickly explained, “The martial arts circles in the city have spread news that the Fenghe Martial Arts Hall and the Chuxue Martial Arts Hall had joined forces to deal with Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall. But in the end, they were defeated by the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall. Not only were the two martial arts masters killed, but the fattest piece of meat was also bitten off by the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.”
Feng Chengyu’s eyes were filled with surprise.
A few days ago, the Hall Master of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall, Han Huxiao, came to ask her for help.
At that time, Han Huxiao also seemed to be seriously injured.
‘Only a few days have passed since then, but the situation has been completely reversed?’
“Han Huxiao has this ability?”
Feng Chengyu didn’t believe it.
“It’s not Han Huxiao.” The maid continued, “Apparently the person who reversed the situation was a person named Xu Ning. This person just became the Deputy Hall Master of the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall not long ago.”
“Xu Ning?”
Feng Chengyu said this strange name.
“Apparently this person is extremely strong. With his own strength, he killed three warriors who were in the intention realm.”
The maid added, “Moreover, this man is also very young.”
“Is that so…”
Feng Chengyu nodded silently.
After pondering for a moment, Feng Chengyu said, “Let’s go to the Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall, I want to personally see this Xu Ning.”
“Yes.”
The maid answered quickly.
…
Shadowmoon Martial Arts Hall.
Inside the martial arts hall, everyone was busy.
After looting the resources of the two martial arts halls, everyone was busy working.
Even the injured Han Huxiao had to show his face several times and deal with the relationship between all parties.
Out of everyone, Xu Ning was the laziest.
While everyone was busy working, Xu Ning was in his room, studying the Thousand Source Bug.
After changing to the new ore, the Thousand Source Bug began to release a new type of Aura Crystals.
But this time, it did not meet Xu Ning’s expectations.
This new type of Aura Crystal only contained 3 units of energy.
Although it contained a lot of energy, the interval of the Thousand Source Bug expelling Aura Crystals had risen to six days.
At this rate, Xu Ning’s harvest was only 15 units a month.
This was 5 units less than when the Thousand Source Bug was swallowing pure ores.
However, Xu Ning was not too disappointed.
That was because Han Huxiao had already made a promise to him.
Once the resources of the two martial arts halls had been completely digested, not only would Xu Ning be given a considerable amount of resources, but Xu Ning would also be given equity.
With that, Xu Ning now had a steady stream of dividend income.
At this point, the energy he could harvest from Aura Crystals seemed inconsequential.
But even so, Xu Ning did not ignore the Thousand Source Bug. After all, a penny was a penny.
Moreover, the Thousand Source Bug would gradually mature, and as it matured, the quality of Aura Crystals it would produce would also improve.
“Deputy Hall Master Xu!”
The second after Xu Ning gave the Thousand Source Bug a new ore, Han Yue’s voice came from outside the door.
“What do you need?”
Xu Ning packed up and opened the door.
“Deputy Hall Master Xu, come with me to the parlor.”
Han Yue quickly said, “Miss Feng San is here, and my father wants you to meet her.”
“Miss Feng San?”
After hearing this, Xu Ning nodded. “Coming.”
After living in Chun Rin Canton for a while, Xu Ning had learned that the Feng, Xiao, and Ye family clans were the top players in the canton city. The three of them formulated the administrative rules of Chun Rin Canton.
“Miss Feng San didn’t come here to ask for her part of the shares, right?”
On the way to the parlor, Xu Ning asked Han Yue.
Han Huxiao had told Xu Ning that they had asked Feng Chengyu for help in the past.
“I don’t know.”
Han Yue shook her head. “I just hope that Miss Feng San won’t be too outrageous. Although we did beg her for help, she never actually helped us.”
The two walked quickly, and they soon arrived at the parlor.
Xu Ning finally met the famous Miss Feng San.
