The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 969: The Heart Thief Is Hard to Get Rid of
In the clean and bright office, Ding Peng looked at the kind-looking middle-aged man working hard on the task at hand, and he could hardly conceal his surprise.

Sensing Ding Peng's surprise, Long Wu looked up and explained.

"I still have some work to do. If you are not in a hurry, you can have some tea first."

Ding Peng narrowed his eyes and said, "You are meeting me so openly, aren't you worried about being exposed?"

Long Wu asked in surprise, "What did you expose?"

As Ding Peng's expression became increasingly gloomy, Long Wu put down the tea bowl in his hand and explained with a smile.

"The Long family was the boss of the Shenlong Bank a long time ago, and the Shenlong Bank is spread all over the seven seas. You are also a famous overseas merchant, and your martial arts skills are not bad either."

"As the top leader in charge of financial development, I can't make any mistakes by meeting with an overseas businessman who is highly skilled in martial arts."

"The only thing to worry about is..."

Long Wu's extremely kind expression began to turn gloomy, and as he flicked his fingers, the office door slowly closed.

And when the door was completely closed, Long Wu said jokingly.

"Walls have ears, that's all."

Long Wu's finger wind was invisible, but Ding Peng could sense it.
If the other party was willing, that finger just now would be enough to kill a first-class master.

This person's martial arts skills are probably not inferior to his.

Looking at Ding Peng's thoughtful look, Long Wu also smiled.

"Even the world-famous Demon Sword Master Ding Peng would be frightened by this level of finger power?"

Ding Peng lowered his eyebrows: "You are too modest. If you were not prepared, that finger just now would be enough to seal the acupuncture points on Ding Peng's body."

"It is rumored that although the eight dragon sons under the Dragon God are no longer in the martial arts world, each of them has unrivaled martial arts skills."

"Now it seems that there is indeed no smoke without fire in the world."

Hearing the title of being invincible, Long Wu felt no pride in his heart and just mocked casually.

"The martial artists in the Jianghu, except for their higher martial arts skills, have the same vision as ordinary people. There are many people in Anqing Prefecture who have higher vision than them."

"And if they really see the true nature of the eight dragon sons, they will understand one thing clearly."

"If it weren't for the suppression of the Dragon God, every dragon son would have the strength to unify the martial arts world."

Ding Peng's eyes were shocked, and Long Wu looked at Ding Peng's expression and laughed.

"You young people were born too late. You only remember the Dragon God's awe-inspiring martial arts and his compassionate heart."

"If I had been born earlier, I would have remembered the wisdom of the Dragon God. He could be called a banished immortal in this world."

Ding Peng swallowed and said in a doubtful tone.

"Eight Dragon Sons, can each of them unify the martial arts world?"

"Where is the Divine Sword Xie Xiaofeng? His swordsmanship is unrivaled in the world. How can you compete with him?"

Long Wu smiled: "Master Ding, do you really want to know the answer?"

Ding Peng said seriously: "Of course, I think I am invincible in martial arts, but facing Xie Xiaofeng's fifteen deadly swords, I don't have the confidence to win."

"And if you want to unify the martial arts world, you will eventually have to face Xie Xiaofeng's invincible sword, right?"

Long Wu stood up, sat in front of Ding Peng, and spoke bluntly.

"It is indeed extremely difficult for the eight dragon sons to defeat Xie Xiaofeng head-on."

"But killing Xie Xiaofeng has always been easy."

"Flower rain all over the sky, life-taking Gu, sniper rifle, heartless poison."

Long Wu said countless words and phrases in one breath that Ding Peng had heard or had not heard before, and finally grinned at Ding Peng's surprised expression.

"In front of these things, no matter how invincible Xie Xiaofeng's swordsmanship is, he is just an ordinary person."

Ding Peng frowned: "Since you have such a background, what do you need Ding Peng to do?"

Long Wu sighed, then laughed.

"Of course it's because above me, the invincible dragon son, lies the number one dragon god in the world."

"And you are the one who can help me fight against the Dragon God." Ding Peng narrowed his eyes, then said with a righteous look.

"The Dragon God is broad-minded and compassionate. With your current status, as long as you do not betray the court, he will not do anything to you."

After hearing this, Long Wu looked at Ding Peng calmly.

After watching Ding Peng until he felt uneasy and angry, Long Wu laughed and replied.

"Li Chaofeng is indeed very compassionate, but he has always been very ruthless."

"He often said: When friends come, there is wine; when wolves come, there is a shotgun."

"But in Li Chaofeng's mouth, all the people in the world are friends. Then what is the jackal in Li Chaofeng's heart?"

Ding Peng lowered his head, then finally raised his head and answered seriously.

"All the people in the world are friends of the Dragon God. Those who abuse the people are naturally jackals."

Long Wu smiled: "Mr. Ding has returned from Qingzhou. People in the Central Plains don't know the scenery overseas, but don't you know what the Canglong Fleet has done outside?"

Ding Peng frowned and recalled in his mind: "The local people are not allowed to have any collision or offense in the place where the Canglong Iron Ship is located. Those who violate the rules will be killed without mercy."

Long Wu interrupted: "Twenty years ago, when Shenlong Bank was first built, Li Chaofeng personally sent people to Fusang to find two open-air silver mountains in order to alleviate the problem of silver shortage."

"As the news was confirmed, he gave the order to make sure that no human habitation could be seen around the two silver mountains."

"Although Fusang still calls itself a country, it has long been replaced by aristocratic families from the Central Plains."

"Destroy their country and annihilate their people"

"Mr. Ding, do you think that Li Chaofeng's actions are abusing the people and are also considered as a wolf?"

Ding Peng was surprised: "How is this possible?"

Long Wu smiled: "Why not?"

"Do you really think Li Chaofeng is a good person?"

"Indeed, he has always been very kind to the Central Plains. Even for those children of noble families who were cruel and brutal to the common people, he would always leave them a way out if possible."

"But once he becomes alert, Li Chaofeng will never deny the necessity of rooting out the problem."

"The Supreme is ruthless, but the Dragon God."

“More ruthless.”

After hearing this, Ding Peng looked at Long Wu and asked with a vigilant look on his face.

"Even so, I still can't see any motive for you to betray the Dragon God."

"Although you are ranked alongside the eight dragon sons, as the first dragon son, your status has always been second only to the Dragon God."

"Does Your Excellency want to rebuild a dynasty ruled by one family in this era when everyone is martial?"

"If so, please allow Ding Peng to leave Jiuyou Palace."

If he had not seen the development of Anqing Prefecture, Ding Peng would still suspect that Long Wu had the idea of ​​rebelling and then replacing the emperor.

But after seeing the people in Anqing who were performing Qinggong even when walking, Ding Peng knew one thing.
He wanted to rebel in an era where martial arts were prevalent by means of conspiracy and trickery.

Even if Li Chaofeng did not take action, it would be a foolish dream.

Long Wu looked up at the ceiling and suddenly asked.

"Mr. Ding is already married, how many children do you want to have?"

Looking down at Ding Peng who was full of doubts, Long Wu asked again with a smile.

“God has always been very caring towards the world, but he has also always been very cruel to everyone.”

"If you want to learn amazing martial arts, it depends on your talent."

"If you want to study hard and make progress every day, you also need talent."

"Mr. Ding felt that his child would be taken care of by God and born with..."

"Are you gifted beyond compare?"
