Liu Tong took her young nephew to Chang'an to visit the Big Wild Goose Pagoda and told him about the people and events of the years from the end of the Sui Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty's golden age.

Liu Dong was lost in her memories.

That world was far more wonderful than the world we live in now.

The imperial court and the martial world; innate masters, grandmasters, great grandmasters, martial arts that shatter the void; beauties and handsome men; vying for supremacy...

Unfortunately, all the old friends had already passed away, and Liu Dong eventually left that world as well.

My nephew was so excited when he heard this that he wished he had been born in that era.

Liu Tong took his young nephew westward to Yanmen Pass.

At Yanmen Pass, Liu Dong told his young nephew the story of Xiao Feng.

Liu Dong asked his young nephew, "What are your thoughts?"

My nephew has made great progress in his studies these days: "The greatest heroes are those who serve their country and its people."

Liu Tong nodded.

My nephew sighed, "But there are no heroes like that in the martial arts world now."

Liu Tong: "That's true."

The two uncles and nephews sighed in unison.

This world is full of hypocritical so-called heroes.

Since the legendary swordsman Shen Lang set sail, the legendary Little Li Flying Dagger has become a thing of the past, and there have been no true heroes in the martial arts world.

Even the son of Li Tanhua, the highly praised hero Li, was nothing more than a hypocrite.

My little nephew clenched his fist: "I will try my best to become a real hero."

"Alright, your uncle has high hopes for you." Liu Tong patted his little nephew on the shoulder. "But being a true hero isn't easy. You'll face many difficulties, and it might even affect your reputation and that of Wugou Manor. Can you accept that?"

My nephew said, "Back then, the great hero Shen Lang was slandered and almost became the enemy of the entire martial arts world."

Liu Tong patted his nephew's head this time.

"Go for it, become a hero who surpasses Shen Lang!"

The little guy nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Liu Dong took the little one to eat the local specialty mutton soup and filled a cloth bag with mutton buns before leaving Yanmen Pass and entering the vast grassland.

The vast grasslands and the expansive sea offer completely different scenery, yet both can broaden one's horizons and make one realize the immensity of the world and the insignificance of humankind.

My nephew has taken a liking to riding horses across the grasslands.

Now, the two have integrated into a tribe and are migrating across the grasslands with the tribe's people.

During the day, my nephew goes out with the children of the tribe to herd sheep and horses. Being with a group of children of similar age, my nephew has become much more lively.

That day, all the children in the tribe returned, but the little nephew did not.

Liu Dong asked the children, and they said that her little nephew had chased after a child.

After getting directions, Liu Dong chased after them.

After chasing for about fifteen minutes, Liu Dong spotted her nephew.

They can really run.

Imagine how far Liu Dong could run in just a quarter of an hour using his lightness skill.

It's at least as far as the distance between the South Fifth Ring Road and the North Fifth Ring Road in Beijing.

Liu Tong saw her nephew talking to a little boy.

The little boy was thin and small, covered in dirt, and wearing no clothes except for a piece of animal skin wrapped around his waist.

When the little nephew saw Liu Tong, he pulled the little boy toward Liu Tong.

"Uncle, this is a new friend I've met, named Xiao Shiyilang."

Liu Tong: "..."

These two destined rivals have actually met now?
Xiao Shiyilang looked thinner and smaller than his nephew, but he was actually two years older. It was just that the boy had always lived with a pack of wolves and sometimes didn't have enough to eat, resulting in malnutrition, which made him look younger than his nephew.

After the little nephew met Xiao Shiyilang, he often shared his food with Xiao Shiyilang.

He no longer herds livestock with the children in the tribe, but instead follows Xiao Shiyilang and his wolf pack on adventures across the grasslands.

The young nephew shared his clothes with Xiao Shiyilang and taught him to read and write.

Once, when my nephew was taking out a book, he brought out a scroll depicting the secrets of immortality.

Xiao Shiyilang saw the pictures on the scroll, was attracted by one of them, and began to cultivate.

My nephew was very happy that someone else was also destined to share the secret of longevity.

Before this, it wasn't that no one else had seen the scroll, but no one had felt anything about the pictures on it.

When Liu Dong learned of this, he once again marveled at the deep connection between the two.

These two people are not only able to learn the secrets of longevity, but they are also one active and one still.

My nephew has a calm personality and learns from animated images: Xiao Shiyi Lang, a man as swift as the wind, learns from static images.

Just as Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling complement each other, the combined internal strength of the nephew and Xiao Shiyilang creates an effect greater than the sum of its parts.

Originally, because of her nephew, Liu Dong had a prejudice against a certain protagonist.

But now that she's seen him in person, Liu Dong's prejudice has vanished.

The lively and cheerful Xiao Shiyilang is a good kid and quite likable.

Now my nephew has become good friends with Xiao Shiyilang.

Therefore, when Liu Dong was instructing his nephew in martial arts, he would also teach Xiao Shiyilang a little.

Knowing that this child will become a notorious thief and be hunted by many people, he must possess superb lightness skills to avoid being easily caught.

Liu then taught Xiao Shiyilang light-body skills.

A year passed as my nephew played and studied with Xiao Shiyilang.

It was time for the two of them to head back.

Neither the nephew nor Xiao Shiyilang could bear to part. The nephew invited Xiao Shiyilang to leave with him and head to Wugou Manor.

But Xiao Shiyilang refused; he couldn't bear to part with his wolf companions.

The two made a promise that if Xiao Shiyilang ever came to the Central Plains, he would go to Wugou Manor to find Lian Chengbi.

And so, the two parted ways, unaware that it would be more than ten years before they met again.

After Liu Dong and Lian Chengbi returned to Wugou Manor, the position of manor lord was officially inherited by the twelve-year-old Lian Chengbi.

After that, Lian Chengbi chose a nearby mountain stronghold that was causing harm to the people.

All 108 people in the mountain stronghold had their martial arts crippled by Lian Chengbi and were sent to the government.

It should be noted that the three leaders of this mountain stronghold were all top-notch martial arts masters, and even with their many henchmen, none of them were a match for a twelve-year-old boy.

Lian Chengbi's reputation as a genius spread.

Afterwards, Lian Chengbi did many more things to punish evil and uphold justice, which made his reputation in the martial arts world grow stronger and stronger.

Later, he became the leader of the Six Gentlemen.

In fact, Lian Chengbi was not like to act like a so-called gentleman.

He felt that the term "gentleman" was not suitable for him, but what could he do when he had always been a polite and well-mannered child?

When Liu Tong taught him, he unknowingly taught him the manners of a noble family scion from his previous life, making Lian Chengbi also have the demeanor of a high-ranking family, just like a noble young master in a corrupt world.

To outsiders, he was noble and elegant, even more so than a gentleman!

When Lian Chengbi turned eighteen, he received an invitation from Shenjiazhuang.

Old Madam Shen was choosing a husband for her granddaughter, and her favorite candidate was Lian Chengbi. (End of Chapter)
