Daily News: You promised yourself to be a fisherman, but you've become a martial arts god?

It was the fifth day after Yuan Fei's death.

Li Nian was busy all night, and when she got up in the morning, Zhao Lijuan had already set up her stall.

In order not to disturb Li Nian's rest, Zhao Lijuan did not ask him for help.

When Li Nian got up and washed up in the yard, she heard people outside talking about buying cakes.

"Have you heard? Last night, Yuan Guangbo, the leader of the Sea Sand Gang, was killed by the Giant Whale Gang!"

"That's impossible! Yuan Guangbo is a master of internal energy; how could he be killed so easily?"

"It's absolutely true! Last night, Hai Wan'ao, the leader of the Giant Whale Gang, personally led a team and captured Yuan Guangbo in Songfeng Village. Villagers witnessed it firsthand; many of Yuan Guangbo's confidants were dead, and their deaths were truly gruesome!"

"Good riddance! The Hai Sha Gang was so tyrannical, their 'peace money' grew year after year. This is what they call 'good and evil are ultimately rewarded'!"

"Without the Sand Gang, there's still the Whale Gang, and the Whale Gang isn't much better than the Sand Gang!"

"Our southern part of the city is still the best. With the Qinyun Martial Arts School here, no gang dares to come and establish a presence..."

Yuan Guangbo is dead?!

Li Nian raised her eyebrows.

Last night, he revealed Yuan Guangbo's hiding place to the Giant Whale Gang, and even wrote down the sentry post that Yuan Guangbo had set up on Songshan Mountain, all so that the Giant Whale Gang could kill Yuan Guangbo.

With Yuan Guangbo dead, there would be no investigation into the whereabouts of the lost treasure, and he would no longer have to worry about being targeted by Yuan Guangbo.

"Open the system."

After calming down, Li Nian opened the system.

People and objects in the intelligence information released by the system will be marked with golden coordinates.

"Still alive!"

Seeing that the gold punctuation mark belonging to Yuan Guangbo was still there and moving out of Qianhu County, Li Nian lowered her eyebrows, a hint of disappointment flashing in her eyes.

really.

Rumors are often unreliable and contain varying degrees of truth.

Yuan Guangbo's ability to escape the siege of the Giant Whale Gang is indeed impressive.

After pondering for a moment, Li Nian summoned today's intelligence report.

"Open today's news!"

[Today's information has been updated]

[Intelligence 1: After obtaining Yuan Guangbo's address, the Giant Whale Gang's "Hai Wan'ao" led his men to Songfeng Manor. During the pursuit of Yuan Guangbo, they used the Five Poison Palm to severely injure him. Yuan Guangbo escaped into the water and barely survived.]

[After surviving, Yuan Guangbo went to the treasure's location this morning, intending to take the treasure away from Qianhu County and go into hiding, unaware that the treasure had already been taken by you.]

Based on the leak of intelligence about the ambush location and the failure of the sentry post to send a message when the Giant Whale Gang attacked, Yuan Guangbo suspected that there was a traitor among his confidants. The traitor secretly followed him, noted down the location of the treasure, and informed Hai Wan'ao, allowing Hai Wan'ao to seize the treasure. Helpless, Yuan Guangbo fled Qianhu County to lie low, vowing to recuperate and then wipe out the Giant Whale Gang.

Looking at the information on the intelligence report, Li Nian's lips curled into a sly smile.

He informed the Giant Whale Gang of Yuan Guangbo's hiding place, hoping they would eliminate Yuan Guangbo.

Secondly, if Yuan Guangbo might survive, they would pin the blame for stealing the treasure on the Giant Whale Gang.

As he expected, Yuan Guangbo indeed suspected that it was done by the Giant Whale Gang.

As for Yuan Guangbo, he did not die.

Yuan Guangbo escaped Qianhu County with serious injuries and no longer posed much of a threat to him.

When Yuan Guangbo returns and learns that he was the one who stole the treasure, his strength will likely have surpassed Yuan Guangbo's!

"The Giant Whale Gang, the Sea Sand Gang, and the Shaking Mountain Camp are all connected, yet they are truly fighting each other with all their might. It seems that there are genuine factional conflicts within the camp, rather than it being a deliberate act to deceive certain people."

Li Nian pondered to herself.

With that thought settled, I looked at the next piece of information.

[Intelligence 2: The jade plate you obtained from the reef, belonging to Yuan Guangbo, is the key to unlocking a certain blessed land.]

[Countdown to the opening of the blessed land: 350 days]

The jade plate truly is the key to this blessed land!

Li Nian's eyes lit up.

His gaze immediately darkened.

The system information only states that the blessed land exists and the date it opened, but does not indicate its specific location.

Suddenly, he seemed to realize something, and his pupils contracted.

According to the Records of Wonders of Heaven and Earth, blessed lands are born from heaven and earth, and are ethereal and elusive, so it is normal that they do not have a specific location.

Inside the Qinyun Martial Arts School, there was a book called "The Record of Strange Things in the World," which recorded the strange and wonderful things in the world. He happened to see it while flipping through it.

He is an adventurous person who enjoys and is passionate about adventure.

Because he knew that to have strength superior to others, one had to take risks.

Especially in this cultivation world.

Only by taking risks can one obtain opportunities that others rarely have.

Opportunity is key to surpassing others!

same.

Only when your fist is big enough can you seize these opportunities from others.

Therefore, before the blessed land opens, he must do everything possible to improve his strength so that he can be competitive in the blessed land!

After quickly glancing at the intelligence reports, Li Nian ate breakfast, grabbed a few thick meat pies, and went out.

Knowing that he was suffering from the hardships of martial arts training, Zhao Lijuan was worried that he wouldn't have enough to eat, so she specially made meat sesame cakes with lots of meat.

As soon as I stepped outside, Zhao Lijuan's stall was bustling with activity, and many of her customers were familiar faces from Qinyun Martial Arts School.

Li Nian knew that the reason these people came to buy meat sesame cakes every day was firstly because of his relationship with Zhao Lijuan, and secondly because Zhao Lijuan's meat sesame cakes were delicious and plentiful!

After exchanging greetings with his fellow disciples, Li Nian was about to leave when someone called out to him from behind.

"Senior Brother Li!"

The voice sounded somewhat familiar.

Turning my head, I saw it was Wu Hong, that kid.

Wu Hong was dressed in a dark blue outfit, with a horizontal knife at his waist. His originally thin figure had become much stronger, and he was holding a half-eaten meat cake in his hand.

On the day of the appointment ceremony, this kid was selected by the Hua family and went to the Hua family for a temporary post. I haven't seen him for several days.

"Takehiro."

Li Nian smiled and patted Wu Hong on the shoulder as he ran up to her.

"Not bad, he's starting to look like a martial artist!"

"How can anyone compare to Senior Brother Li?"

Wu Hong scratched his head awkwardly.

Although he has been on temporary assignment outside the area recently, he has occasionally heard about Li Nian.

This fellow disciple, who entered the martial arts school a day later than him, has already broken through two major hurdles in the Blood Refining stage, while he hasn't even sensed the presence of Qi and Blood yet.

Suddenly, Wu Hong remembered something and quickly stepped aside to introduce the man behind him to Li Nian:

"Senior Brother Li, this is the third young master of the Hua family."

"Young Master Hua, this is my senior brother, Li Nian. This delicious meat pancake shop is run by my senior brother."

Following Wu Hong's gaze, a few steps away stood a man of similar age to him.

The man had a handsome and gentle face, a straight nose, and sharp lips. He possessed the refined demeanor honed through martial arts training, with a gentle elegance that concealed a sharp edge.

He was dressed in a clean and simple blue robe, without any fancy ornaments.

The man calmly bowed to Li Nian:

"My name is Hua Wuluo, and I greet Brother Li."

Flowers never fall?

Li Nian's gaze narrowed slightly.

The Hua family is one of the five major families in Qianhu County. He knew a little about the young masters and ladies of the five families, but he had never heard of Hua Wuluo.

He must be an illegitimate son.

While pondering to himself, Li Nian remained outwardly calm, cupping his hands in greeting:

"Brother Hua, my name is Li Nian, it's a pleasure to meet you."

"Nice to meet you."

Hua Wuluo nodded and said, "Wu Hong often mentions you to me."

"I've come here today to try your meat-filled flatbread."

"The taste is really good!"

Li Nian smiled and said, "Thank you for your patronage, Brother Hua."

Hua Wulu smiled and said, "I have other matters to attend to today, so I'll take my leave for now. I'll have a long chat with Brother Li another day."

"Of course, Brother Hua, take care."

Li Nian clasped her hands in greeting.

The three clasped their hands in farewell.
