Quickly conquer the martial arts world, and let your fists dominate the heavens!

Chapter 219 Execution of Nine Generations, Blood Debts Must Be Amortized!
Han Muxia gave an awkward laugh. A man stepped out from behind him and chuckled, "You brat who can't even figure out how to walk a jar properly, are you going to teach me a lesson?"

Wu Jinchen looked up and immediately took a few steps back.

"Oh dear, what brings you here! Senior brother, senior brother, grab your weapons, our enemy has come knocking!"

He took a few steps back, and his senior brother Zhao Daoxin pressed down on his shoulder from behind, saying, "What are you afraid of? There are so many of us, why should we be afraid of him? We'll avenge Senior Brother Xue today!"

Zhao Daoxin was also young, only 22 years old. He was young and impetuous, and greatly admired Xue Dian's martial arts skills, often hanging out with him.

With that, he exerted force, pulled Wu Jinchen back, and took two steps to reach Chen Zhan.

"Stop!" Han Muxia shouted, but Zhao Daoxin's hand was already at Chen Zhan's chest. He hesitated for a moment and did not stop.

The Xingyi Cannon Fist struck Chen Zhan's chest with a fierce blow.

Chen Zhan didn't block or dodge; he just smiled as he watched Chen Zhan punch him in the chest.

"Huh? You're not going to dodge! You really don't want to live anymore?"

Zhao Daoxin was a little surprised when he heard Han Muxia, the senior brother next to Chen Zhan, sigh, but he immediately understood why his senior brother sighed.

He moved faster than he could by wading through mud, and with a jolt, he was thrown backward.

Wu Jinchen, who was standing there watching the show, was also knocked down, and everyone fell over.

"Ouch~ Senior brother, you almost killed me!" Wu Jinchen grimaced.

Zhao Daoxin remained silent.

That blow felt like hitting a spring; even a spring wouldn't have that much force.
He thought to himself, 'This Chen Zhan is truly strange!'

'Damn it, someone who calls themselves the leader of the martial arts world, even if they were promoted to that position, should have some real skill. I was careless.'

Zhao Daoxin fell to the ground, and several of his senior brothers gathered around him, but they didn't act rashly, as their eldest senior brother, Han Muxia, was still there.

"Get out of my way! Don't you listen to me? I told you to stop, didn't you understand?"

Han Muxia's tone was unfriendly, sounding both angry and helpless.

Zhao Daoxin lowered his head and remained silent, and the others did not dare to speak up to dissuade him, which showed that Han Muxia still had some authority.

Although Zhang Zhankui had many apprentices, none of them were very capable and stayed by his side all the time. The truly talented ones didn't stay at home; they all went out to make their way in the world.

At the very least, one can become a master at a large martial arts school.

Han Muxia roared, and a voice came from the innermost room of the courtyard: "Muxia, bring your men in, and the rest of you get out of here. If you make another sound, I'll break your legs."

Zhang Zhankui's voice came through.

Han Muxia led the smiling Chen Zhan into the house, but did not find Xue Dian.

Zhang Zhankui got up from the armchair and took a few steps. His left leg was lame, but he was not slow.

He stepped forward and greeted them, saying, "Alliance Leader Chen has arrived; it is an honor to have you here."

His tone was indifferent, carrying a sense of detachment and dissatisfaction.

Chen Zhan didn't mind and said with a smile, "I have met Uncle Zhang before. I often hear my master mention him. Seeing that Uncle Zhang is still in good health today, I am relieved."

When Chen Zhan mentioned Tian Jingjie, Zhang Zhankui, being very sentimental, softened his tone considerably:

"Sigh, it's been a long time since I've seen Xiao Tian. Thirty years ago, he was still practicing martial arts with me and Senior Brother Cunyi. Time flies, and we've all grown old."

"Alright, sit down first."

"You sit down too."

Zhang Zhankui said to Han Muxia.

The three of them took their seats.

"What are you doing here? You crippled Senior Brother Cunyi's last disciple, and now you've come to Tianjin to show off your power?" Zhang Zhankui was clearly dissatisfied with Chen Zhan's crippling of Xue Dian.

Chen Zhan shook his head.

“Uncle-Master, I have no need to show off. To be honest, killing him would have been effortless for me. The only reason I crippled his martial arts is because of you.”

"Let Senior Brother Han tell you what he did, and then go to Shanxi to investigate further. You will understand then."

After Chen Zhan finished speaking, Han Muxia immediately whispered to Zhang Zhankui to explain that he needed to use his words to explain the "Yiguandao" cult.

After Han Muxia finished speaking, Zhang Zhankui pondered for a moment and said, "If that's the case, he is indeed not wronged. Even if Senior Brother Cunyi is alive, he should be beaten to death."

He then turned to Chen Zhan and said, "Did Xiao Tian give you my master's seal?"

Chen Zhan smiled and took out a seal from his pocket. It was Liu Lanqi's seal, with the words "Xingyi" written on it.

Liu Lanqi was Li Laoneng's first disciple, so it's not surprising that he received the high seal.

But Tian Jingjie was different. Even before his arms were crippled, his martial arts skills were not top-notch. It is unknown why Liu Lanqi passed the Great Seal to him.

But Chen Zhan couldn't ask Tian Jingjie this question. Asking it would be disrespectful to his teacher and would put Tian Jingjie in an awkward position.

"Now that this seal is in your hands, it means that you are indeed qualified to inherit the position of the Grand Master of Xingyi Sect."

"You must be very curious about how this seal ended up in your master's hands. This happened quite a long time ago, twenty years ago. The Warriors Association fell apart, and Senior Brother Cunyi was seriously ill and unable to take charge of the overall situation, so he began to entrust his affairs after his death."

“At that time, I stayed in Tianjin, while my fellow disciples were scattered all over the world. Your master was assigned to the harsh north. Fengtian was a remote place with no one to help him. So, according to the plan, he was made to live in anonymity and the name of the martial arts school was changed. It was no longer called ‘Xingyimen’, just to avoid disaster.”

"Besides, he's young, so he'll probably live a long time. That's why we gave him the seal and are looking for a disciple to inherit the Xingyi School." "Sigh, I never expected him to suffer such a misfortune in Fengtian. Both his arms were cut off. If it weren't for that kid Wang Xiangzhai coming by, I wouldn't have known about this. Your master didn't even tell me!"

Zhang Zhankui's voice trembled slightly as he spoke.

He was fine with other things, but when he talked about the old days and his fellow disciples, he immediately became emotional.

Blaming Chen Zhan for Xue Dian's matter is ultimately Li Cunyi's fault.

When this matter was brought up, Chen Zhan's face also darkened.

"Don't worry, Uncle-Master. I've already killed the two who plotted against my master. The Black Dragon Society also killed some, but it's not enough, not nearly enough!"

"I heard the Black Dragon Society is located in Tokyo. I will go there and uproot it completely, leaving no one alive. The Qing Dynasty's policy of punishing nine generations of a family is perfectly applicable to the Black Dragon Society. I don't care about innocence or blood debts!"

Chen Zhan's voice was calm, but it carried an inexplicable chill, as if the temperature in the entire room had dropped several degrees.

But Zhang Zhankui didn't take his words seriously. Killing the enemy was enough; going to Tokyo, Japan was a bit far-fetched.
“You came all the way to Tianjin just to see me, you must have something else to say, right?” Zhang Zhankui asked again.

Chen Zhan hesitated for a moment, then said:

"It's nothing serious. The martial arts world in the north has been basically wiped out. I'm going to leave the capital and head south to unite the north and south and fight against the Japanese together."

“If anything happens in Beijing or Tianjin, my senior brother can immediately lead people south. I will meet him in the south. At his age, there is no need for him to fight. Some things need to be done by the younger generation.”

Chen Zhan's words surprised Zhang Zhankui and Han Muxia. He meant that something big was about to happen in Beijing and Tianjin.

Speaking of a hard-fought battle, one can't help but think of the time when the Eight-Nation Alliance entered the city.

Wang Wu, Li Cunyi, Cheng Tinghua, and others led their men in a fierce battle.
However, Chen Zhan did not explain and got up to leave.

Only the master and his apprentice remained.

After leaving Yangliuqing, Chen Zhan headed southeast at a very fast pace.

Li Shuwen also doesn't live in the urban area of ​​Tianjin. Although the Sanwu Martial Arts Academy is located in the urban area of ​​Tianjin, he almost never shows his face anymore.

Only a few senior figures in the martial arts world know where he lives.

Zhang Zhankui gave the address: Beizhakou, Xiaozhan, Tianjin, but the exact location in the village was hard to find.

Chen Zhan went to the small station area in the southern suburbs and asked around for a long time before finally finding a general place to stay.

The old men in the village didn't even recognize Li Shuwen. Chen Zhan thought for a moment and figured that, based on his age, Li Shuwen's two great disciples, whom he had taken in later in life, should still be around. So he changed his mind and inquired about Liu Xiaochen and Li Jianwu.

Upon hearing Liu Xiaochen's name, the old man immediately understood and laughed, "You're looking for Little Tyrant? Go straight ahead from here, turn right after two streets, and go to the very end of the alley. That kid's probably not home; he's out causing trouble."

Chen Zhan smiled and offered the old man a few copper coins, but the old man refused to accept them no matter what.

Without lingering, they followed the indicated route and soon reached the depths of the alley, "Pat pat pat~"

The sounds of fists and palms clashing continued.

Chen Zhan walked over. The house wasn't great, but it still had a large yard and low walls, so he could see the two fighting inside at a glance.

One was in his early twenties, and the other was in his thirties.

Despite the age difference, the younger man clearly had the upper hand, displaying a masterful style in his punches and palm strikes, his sharp aura making it hard for the older man to breathe.

However, the man remained calm, retreating steadily and cautiously, waiting for an opportunity.

Chen Zhan was engrossed in watching them, not because the two men were highly skilled in martial arts, but because they were both famous figures in later generations, currently fellow disciples, but destined to go to different camps.

It can be said that no one can predict the direction of the gears of fate.

The fateful showdown begins now. (A quick look it up if you're interested.)
The two were still locked in a stalemate when a voice called them to a halt.

"That's enough, any more fighting will only lead to injury."

Upon hearing the voice, both men stepped back. Li Jianwu was older, but he had only been a disciple for four years, so he took the initiative to clasp his hands and say, "Senior brother's kung fu is getting better and better. In a few more years, you should reach the Transformation Realm. The future achievements of someone who has reached the Transformation Realm at this age are unimaginable."

Liu Xiaochen is only twenty-one years old, but he became Li Shuwen's apprentice at the age of seven. Now, more than ten years later, it is only reasonable for him to be the senior apprentice.

"You flatter me. To reach the Transformation Realm in one's twenties might have been considered a prodigy before, but now there is a martial arts leader in his twenties who dominates the martial arts world, leaving martial artists breathless."

"Oh dear, I heard from Senior Brother Etang that Li Chunran, one of the two most outstanding talents in the capital, couldn't withstand ten moves from him. That's terrifying."

"More than that. Xue Dian, that arrogant and conceited man, challenged Master last time and withstood five moves from him without defeat. Unexpectedly, his martial arts were crippled on the very day he arrived in the capital. He was sent back crying for his parents, and nobody cared about him."

"Xue Dian has been crippled, it's truly gratifying, hahaha."

"That's right, that's right, he was too arrogant. In Tianjin, he really thought no one could control him. He challenged people everywhere and even provoked Master. Master didn't want to argue with him because of Uncle Cunyi. This time, he finally fell for him in the capital."

"I never expected that Chen Zhan, a fellow Xingyi practitioner, would be so ruthless!"

After they stopped fighting, they started chatting on their own.

Li Shuwen, lying on the recliner, said, "Stop chatting, we have guests, go open the door."

As he spoke, there was a knock on the door.

Liu Xiaochen was closest to the door, so he turned around and opened it.

He opened the door, saw Chen Zhan, and was stunned for a moment.

"You... wait, why is Alliance Leader Chen here?"
