Wind and Rain Mountain God Temple!

The firelight inside the temple shone on the fat man's face, but he felt no warmth at all.

Recalling how I was terrified by Ren Woxing's Star Absorbing Skill thirty years ago and had to go into hiding, I never expected that I would run into his successor as soon as I emerged from the mountains.

They were about to be drained of their life force by the Star-Absorbing Technique; Heaven was truly full of malice towards the three brothers.

The more they thought about it, the more indignant they became. Just as they were about to swallow their pride and confess everything, their palms suddenly trembled, and the three brothers fell to the ground. Shi Potian had already finished laughing and stopped his practice.

Laughter resounded through the sky, sweeping across the mountains and forests, startling away a flock of birds and beasts.

Only then did the fat man realize that he had escaped with his life, but he was exhausted, with seven or eight tenths of his true energy gone, and collapsed on the ground like a lump of mud.

Looking at the tall and elegant young man standing before me, the firelight shone on his back, as if creating a halo.

It truly resembles an Arhat or Buddha descending to earth.

The gaunt old man, slumped on the ground, had no idea that many years later, he would often think back to that distant night he spent with the boy in the dilapidated temple.

Once Shi Potian stopped laughing, Madam Wang asked with concern, "Ping'er, has your internal energy cultivation improved so much again?"

Shi Potian laughed and said, "Yes, Mother, I also want to thank these three seniors for their help. Otherwise, I wouldn't have made such great progress. I would have needed at least another year and a half to cultivate."

After saying that, he slammed his palm into the stone pillar in the temple. With a loud bang, the stone pillar shook violently, the entire dilapidated temple rustled, and dust fell to the ground.

"Young Master, be careful, the temple is going to collapse!" Bai Er shouted.

"A palm strike that splits the air!" the gaunt old man exclaimed in surprise.

When everyone looked at the stone pillar, they saw that there was another clear five-finger palm print next to the palm print left by the gaunt old man.

The fact that he could leave a palm print with a single strike in mid-air clearly shows the difference in skill between him and the gaunt old man.

Everyone gasped, their eyes filled with disbelief as they looked at Shi Potian.

This child is terrifying!

This time, Shi Potian used the internal energy of the three men in black to open up his meridians and acupoints, causing his Arhat Subduing Demon Divine Skill to advance by leaps and bounds, with true energy circulating throughout his body.

Moreover, his cultivation progressed by leaps and bounds in the future. Although he had not yet reached the level that the bastard had reached after drinking the Ice and Fire Wine, it was still quite remarkable.

The gaunt old man smiled bitterly:

"Congratulations on your mastery of the divine skill, Young Escort. However, practicing that evil art will likely make you an enemy of the martial arts world, even more so than the Evil-Repelling Sword Technique. I advise you to be careful."

He then said to Lin Zhennan, "Chief Escort Lin, my two brothers and I are now completely crippled in martial arts. You may kill or torture us as you please. But I absolutely cannot betray our sect."

Shi Potian was completely bewildered, not understanding why the old man was so convinced that he had practiced evil arts, when he clearly practiced the martial arts of Xia Ke Island.

They even said that his martial arts were completely ruined. He was just using some internal energy to cultivate, so how could his martial arts be completely ruined?

The Lin Zhennan couple were also puzzled. They had always attributed Shi Potian's martial arts skills to Su Hui, so they were naturally very curious that someone else recognized them.

Lin Zhennan said politely, "You seniors must be the three seniors Zhao, Zhang, and Sima who dominated northern Hebei thirty years ago. I have long admired your names."

"Just now, Senior Zhao said my son practiced some kind of evil martial art. What do you mean by that? And how can you be so sure? And who is this Mr. Ren?"

Seeing that Lin Zhennan had recognized him, the gaunt old man did not deny it and said:

"Why pretend to be stupid, Chief Escort Lin? My brother brought this upon himself. Kill him or torture him, just give him a quick death."

Shi Potian said, "Father, I did not practice any evil arts. This senior has made a mistake. What I just used was the cultivation method that was initially passed down to you."

The three men in black felt their hearts pounding. They all thought, "We never expected that even Lin Zhennan and his wife had practiced the Star Absorbing Technique. We three brothers are like lambs to the slaughter. How can we possibly win? We can only lose to death."

"How ridiculous and pathetic!" The three of them hung their heads in dejection, feeling sorry for themselves.

Lin Zhennan and his wife had already gained some understanding of the "Silver Saddle Illuminating White Horse Divine Skill" and knew that it could not possibly be some kind of evil skill, so they were relieved.

Lin Zhennan said, "You gentlemen have been retired from the martial arts world for decades and have long been out of touch with its affairs, so it's understandable that you've made a mistake. My son never leaves the house and practices the family's traditional martial arts. He doesn't know any Mr. Ren."

The tall, burly man, Sima Yong, cursed:

"Hey Lin, stop pretending. My brothers and I are doomed to die today, and we won't reveal your secrets. Kill us or torture us, just do it quickly. The Eastern Cult Leader will avenge us."

He spoke frankly, but in the end, he was still trying to use Dongfang Bubai as a threat to save his life.

Lin Zhennan laughed and said, "You guys came in all this way, wanting to kill and rob, and you even hid an ambush, intending to take advantage of the chaos to launch a sneak attack. You're really using any means necessary."

"Now that they are not as skilled as others and are unwilling to confess honestly, if we just let a few of them go, wouldn't it make our fellow martial arts practitioners look down on us? Who knows how many villains will covet them in the future?"

"The person who ambushed us has nothing to do with us," Sima Yong hurriedly defended himself.

"We don't know who that person is either. The three heroes of northern Hebei are bold and responsible. If it is true, it is; if it is not, it is not. They will never take the blame for others."

Fatty Zhang Biao had recovered his composure from the fear he had just experienced with the Star Absorbing Technique. He had tried circulating his internal energy and discovered he still had two or three tenths of his power remaining.

It seems this young镖头 (bodyguard/escort) didn't exhaust himself, which shows he's not a bloodthirsty person.

He escaped with his life from the Star Absorbing Technique and felt that being alive was wonderful; he really didn't want to die.

Glancing around at the group from Fuwei Escort Agency, he knew that Lin Zhennan and Lin Pingzhi were the easiest to talk to among the three members of the Lin family. Looking at the Lin father and son, he said:

"Congratulations, Chief Escort Lin! With a prodigy like Young Master Lin, it's only a matter of time before Fuwei Escort Agency regains its former glory of thirty years ago, and even reaches new heights."

"My two brothers and I were deceived by villains today and became enemies with the Fuwei Escort Agency. We deserve this fate, and we dare not expect to be let off easily."

"However, your escort agency has been severely damaged by the Qingcheng Sect, and your most urgent task is to hunt down Yu Canghai and seek revenge. I have an idea and would like to make a deal with your escort agency."

At this point, Fatty Zhang Biao glanced at Zhao Lie, who was silent with his eyes closed, and already knew what his older brother was thinking.

He continued, "We brothers don't ask you to be lenient and let us go directly, so we are willing to exchange our whereabouts for Yu Canghai's information."

Upon hearing that Fatty Zhang knew Yu Canghai's whereabouts, Madam Wang asked anxiously, "Do you really know where Yu Canghai is?"

Lin Zhennan also said, "You're not trying to tell us that Yu Canghai is in Hengyang, are you? We also know that his disciple came to Hengyang to attend Master Liu's 'Golden Basin Washing Hands' ceremony, so we followed him here."

Fatty Zhang smiled slightly and said, "If this is all the information we have, it's certainly not enough for an exchange. We not only know where Yu Canghai is staying, but we also know his plans."

"Chief镖师 Lin, Young Hero Lin, if you agree to let us go, I will immediately tell you everything and promise never to be an enemy of Fuwei Escort Agency again."

"Although my three brothers and I are not great figures, we know the principle of keeping our word."

After speaking, he looked intently at the Lin family father and son.

Sima Yong looked at Zhang Biao and thought: It has to be my second senior brother, who is resourceful and can even survive a near-death experience.

That bastard Yu Canghai almost crippled us; we have no qualms about selling him out.
