Gao Wuming: From Dockworker to Physical Achievement

Chapter 128 Questioning

Another person said, "I found some newspapers. According to the information in them, Master Yi of the dock gang, and this dock gang, appeared about three months ago."

It is said that Master Yi initially had to put in a lot of effort to polish the skin of martial arts masters. He finally made a public appearance when he fought to a draw with Liu Hong, the head of the three major martial arts schools, during a competition at the Martial Arts Association.

After that, he killed a bone-forging martial arts master named Luo Ping who had sided with the foreigners, and after that, there was no further news about him.

The speaker was a martial artist with large burn marks and growths on his face, and no hair on his head.

This man is called Young Master Yu, but his face was disfigured by the Heart-Eating Demoness, one of the Four Evils.

The Heart-Eating Demoness had a particular fondness for devouring the hearts of handsome young men. At the time, Young Master Yu was only at the Bone Forging Realm, so he had no choice but to disfigure himself to protect himself.

The handsome young man has turned into this disgusting sight.

He truly hated the Four Evils.

After learning that the dock gang had killed the two thugs, fat and thin, he stayed behind, hoping to make use of the dock gang's power.

According to his information, the Four Evils have also come to Tianhai.

If the docks had the help, they would surely be able to eliminate these wicked people.

Therefore, he collected a lot of information and obtained clues about Master Yi.

"Do you believe it? I don't believe it. You mean to go from the Skin Polishing Realm to the Qi Condensation Realm in just two or three months? Even those crazy martial artists who are parasitized by demons can't do that."

The speaker was a female warrior with an exotic look, her skin tanned to a bronze color, wearing very little clothing, with rope knots decorating her hands and waist.

Beside her sat a burly, bronze-faced man, his eyes fixed only on the food on the table, indifferent to everything else.

The two men were clearly from the same place; they were both from the Western Regions of the Great Xuan Dynasty.

The last person was an old monk. He also drank and ate, but didn't like to talk and didn't look like a monk at all.

He was known as the "Master Who Does Not Save," because he only killed evil people and never saved them.

Young Master Yu, two martial arts masters from the Western Regions, and an old monk.

In addition, there's Elder Yulin.

These are the dirty martial arts instructors who remain on the dock street.

Other martial arts practitioners either planned to participate in the competitions held by the three major martial arts schools and stayed in the martial arts school district of the outer concession.

Like the Fist Maniac, he was only thirty-seven years old this year, which was below the age of forty, so he went to participate in the martial arts competition.

Either they didn't want to be disciplined by the dock gangs and chose to enter the more prosperous concession.

Although a pass was required to enter and exit the concession, ordinary guards couldn't possibly stop a martial arts master like him.

The Governor's Office and the Consulate both announced that martial arts masters and fighting experts were welcome to enter the concession without needing a pass.

They were even less inclined to stay in the dock area.

There might also be shady martial arts practitioners with ulterior motives hiding among the crowd at the dock; that's another matter entirely.

On the surface, there are only five people, including Elder Yulin.

The five of them were in the restaurant, chatting about the dock gang and Chen Yi.

"It must be a martial arts expert who concealed his strength and created the image of a martial arts genius to gain fame."

"Why should a martial arts master need to gain fame in this way? By demonstrating their strength, they will naturally gain fame and position commensurate with their abilities."

We are military men, not the imperial court; there's no situation where our talents go unused.

"Is it just a personal hobby?"

After much discussion, the group finally came to a conclusion.

The conclusion is that Chen Yi simply enjoys doing things this way.

It's normal for martial arts masters to have their own little quirks.

If Chen Yi were a powerful figure from a certain sect in the Great Xuan Dynasty, his disciples would probably imitate him, trying to replicate his quirks to enhance their martial arts talent.

As they were talking, a sound came from the stairs.

This attracted the attention of five people.

They had already paid the full amount for the restaurant and instructed the manager not to send anyone up.

This person must know this news, yet still comes up here; could it be that he has ill intentions?

However, when they saw faces gradually emerging from behind the stairs...

The group smiled and said, "So it's Chef Li. How did you know we were eating here?"

Li Cheng went upstairs.

Compared to the other dock gang leaders.

Li Cheng and the young heroes of the Da Xuan martial arts world are most similar in temperament, and they are more willing to befriend Li Cheng.

Li Cheng laughed and said, "As long as it's not a concession, there's nothing the Tianhai dock gang doesn't know. But you guys were chatting and drinking without inviting me, that's really not nice of you."

"Master Li isn't busy. We were afraid of bothering you. Since you're here, why don't you sit down and have a meal?" said Old Man Yulin.

Li Cheng shook his head, then looked around at everyone.

He said, "Master Yi invites you to discuss the matter of that mad martial artist. I wonder who would like to join us?"

When I heard that Master Yi had invited me.

All five of them involuntarily tensed up.

They are most likely martial artists at the Qi Refining Realm. Inviting them over is not a good thing.

After all, in front of such martial arts masters, their lives are no longer in their own hands, but depend entirely on the other party's mood.

This feeling is unsettling.

Besides, who knows what Mr. Yi's attitude is?

Perhaps he dislikes having martial artists with dirty skills roaming around his territory?

However, upon hearing that it was about the insane martial artist, the group relaxed somewhat.

Such situations only occur in the inland areas of Da Xuan, and are very rare in the coastal areas.

It's normal to not know and need to ask.

Even so, no one was willing to go, so no one spoke up.

The situation was slightly awkward.

"Could it be that you gentlemen are unwilling to give me face?" Li Cheng's face turned cold.

This guy has no chivalrous spirit whatsoever.

Li Cheng's words caused several people to harbor resentment.

"I shall make a trip. A person who can maintain a peaceful place for the people must be a master of high moral character. I have long wanted to pay him a visit."

Old Man Yulin stood up and said.

He also changed his self-reference to avoid making Mr. Yi think he was taking advantage of his seniority.

"It is my honor to have the opportunity to visit Master Yi."

Unexpectedly, Young Master Yu stood up at the same time.

Old Man Yulin turned his gaze to Young Master Yu.

Young Master Yu did not respond.

He wanted to leverage the strength of the dock gang, but it wouldn't be good to rush in rashly.

I'm having a headache about how to connect with them.

This is undoubtedly an opportunity.

"Good, good, good. I'm sure Master Yi will be happy that you two are willing to come. Don't worry, Master Yi is very kind." Li Cheng smiled again.

Then he looked at the other three and said, "Please enjoy your meal. Remember to follow the rules in this dock area."

However, you are all highly skilled in dirty work, how could we possibly wrong you? If you encounter any fools, feel free to come to our gang to handle it.”

After saying that, he went down the stairs.

"Enjoy your meal. Master Yi probably just wants to get a feel for the situation; it won't take much effort. We'll be right back," said Old Man Yulin.

Young Master Yu nodded in acknowledgment and followed Li Cheng away.

Old man Yulin caught up last.

They followed Li Cheng out of the restaurant and headed towards Warehouse Street.

We walked all the way to the front of the council chamber.
