Baki has always trusted his best friend Rei, but when he approached, he was suddenly punched in the chest and abdomen, causing his already fragile body to faint instantly.

This caused Shaojiang who was standing by to scream in surprise. She found it hard to believe that this was something done by Rei. What she didn't expect was that Ando ignored what was happening from beginning to end.

"Why are you......"

"Please rest assured, Ms. Matsumoto. This is for Baki's own good. Rei told me that there is a treatment in China, a way to cure Yanagi Ryuko's poisonous hand. However, given Baki's personality, he will definitely not agree to it easily, so I had to come up with this last resort with Mr. Rei."

As soon as Ando finished speaking, he saw a helicopter flying in the distance. It turned out to be Rei who informed Tokugawa that the plane to China had already been prepared and was waiting to transport Baki over.

The process and various formalities were completed at the speed of light under the influence of the Tokugawa family, and even aircraft could be mobilized.

On the flight from Neon to China, Chen Tianqiao and Garuda sat opposite each other in the first-class luxury cabin. There were only him and his wife and several crew members in the cabin.

As the reason for this trip, he had learned about what happened through a phone call in the waiting hall and expressed sympathy for Baki's experience. After all, not everyone has a system like his.

If he were to fight against Liu Longguang, he might be even worse than the Russian named Sikorski, because with his current physical condition, the thing he fears least is this kind of slow death.

"Garuda, why are you going to the mainland with me instead of staying at home to take care of your baby? If something bad happens, I'm afraid the old man will kill me."

That's right, Garuda is pregnant! After all, if both of them are healthy, and the man is forced to pay public grain every day, it would be strange if he didn't win the bid.

"Why are you in such a hurry? I'm not in any hurry. It's only been less than a month. It's a rare opportunity for us to go on such a long journey together. Since our honeymoon in the Maldives, I've been learning new cuisines. The classes at school are really boring to me."

As she spoke, she picked up the latest edition of Food Weekly. Since getting married, apart from cooking, she had no interest in becoming stronger. Instead, she wanted to train a strong person herself.

It is worth mentioning that Garuda was ranked among the top five in school academic performance, and this was without serious study. One has to say that some people are born to be chased by God and fed by him.

"Well, I don't know how you got the old man to agree to let you come here, but as a pregnant woman you still have to be careful."

"I know. Please, don't be as nagging as Mama-san."

Upon hearing this, Chen Tianqiao's face darkened. He couldn't rush back now. What else could he do since he was already on the plane?

It is estimated that this was kept secret from his great-grandfather Wu Huiliyang. Anyway, he did not believe that this man, who was obsessed with his granddaughter, would let Garuda run to such a faraway continent to play.

Time flies. After five hours of flight, the passenger plane finally landed at China's Pudong Airport. However, it was unexpected that as soon as it took off, it was surrounded by many Chinese people and photographed.

"Wow! Is this real? It's like someone jumped out of a comic book!"

"I always thought that the term "high" was only used to describe people who were as thin as a stick. I didn't expect that I would be so enlightened."

“Is it possible that reality is stranger than fiction?”

"Didn't anyone notice that there was a pretty girl next to him? Could she be some young lady's bodyguard or something like that?"

This might be the first time that they saw such a burly figure in real life. Even the great generals in ancient times were no bigger than him, with a giant-like height and thigh-thick muscle texture that was clearly visible even through the clothes.

"Husband, it seems that you are quite popular. Didn't your friend say he would come to pick you up?"

Today, Garuda is wearing a white dress and a small hat, looking very pure and lovely. No one can imagine that this girl is already a wife.

"I remember it was this time. Maybe we're late. We should wait here."

As he spoke, he took a step forward, like an icebreaker, cutting through the crowd. However, he still underestimated the Chinese people's nature of loving to join in the fun.

The environment he was in now was like a salmon that was forced into a can of sardines. He didn't dare to use too much force for fear that someone would die, which would be too troublesome.

He could only try his best to protect Garuda, fearing that she would be carried away by the crowd. However, this embarrassing situation did not last long. The airport staff used surveillance to quickly send patrolmen to the scene to disperse the crowd.

However, because of this incident, the two were fortunately taken to the management office for questioning about what had happened in the riot.

Even though they were used to seeing all kinds of people from different countries at airports, the staff were still shocked by this returnee.

"I never thought they were actually a couple, hahaha..."

Fang Wen, the head of the security department, was speechless. He thought the two were father and daughter. He didn't expect that foreign countries were so open-minded. The girl was probably about the same age as his daughter.

"Mr. Chen Tianqiao, right? From the surveillance video I just retrieved, we can see that the commotion just now was caused by our inadequate work. For this, I apologize to you on behalf of the entire security department."

"Well, that's fine. If there are no other questions, can I take my wife away first?"

He didn't have the ability to read minds, so he didn't know what the other person was thinking. It was just that his phone in his pocket vibrated just now, and he guessed that apart from that guy Lie, no one else would call him at this time.

 

Chapter 52: Domestic Sea Kings

In order to avoid a recurrence of the previous incident in the airport, he had no choice but to sit with Garuda near the security department. Fortunately, there was a Starbucks coffee shop here, so the two of them didn't look too embarrassed.

"Brother Chen, I'm so sorry. I didn't sleep all night because I was arranging Baki's affairs. I just closed my eyes for a while and realized that so much time has passed."

"It's good that you know it. You must be a good host and entertain us well later."

"Look at what you said, don't worry."

After complaining to Xiang Lie on the phone, the two parties made an appointment to meet at a coffee shop again. Maybe people who like to drink coffee are very concerned about their image. Apart from the sound of secretly taking pictures, there was no incident of thousands of people surrounding the shop.

Not long after, a huge RV stopped outside the airport. Lie strode towards Chen Tianqiao with excitement and gave him a big hug.

"Brother Chen, you helped me a lot this time!"

"Stop for now, you haven't told me what it is yet."

Because they often practiced martial arts in private and happened to be both practicing traditional martial arts in a foreign land, their friendship became closer over time.

Perhaps he had already realized that ordinary cars could not accommodate Chen Tianqiao's body size, so Lie specially called for a modified RV. Although the interior was not luxurious enough, it had ample space and was not too stuffy.

"..Come..Come..Come. Let's talk in detail after we get in the car."

Then he told the driver to go to the Wushu Association's headquarters in Pudong. On the way, Lie Cai showed a helpless look and revealed the news that they were about to start the Centennial Grand Arena Tournament at the Shaolin Temple in Songshan to select the Sea King.

Because the selection of the Sea King is based solely on strength and does not distinguish between nationalities, anyone can participate. It is easy to attract strong people from all over the world to participate voluntarily. Speaking of this, Lie's face is bitter at the moment.

"Isn't this a good thing? Why are you so gloomy?"

He was very curious. As the birthplace of Asian martial arts culture, could China not suppress these outsiders?

"Anyway, you'll be able to learn about these things yourself later."

"Ms. Garuda may also know something about the problems on the continent."

Well, so I was kept in the dark. But I was too embarrassed to ask Garuda in person in front of Lie, so I had to suppress my curiosity and wait until I got to the Martial Arts Association.

In the Pudong Development Zone, where every inch of land is valuable, the headquarters of the Wushu Association covers an area of ​​more than a thousand square meters. It can be best described as having carved beams and painted buildings. The antique main building and the colored glaze lamps of various colors and shapes are so expensive that it is obvious at first glance.

Led by Lie, we passed through the vermilion gate and saw the spacious marble square filled with martial arts students coming and going. They gathered in groups of three or five, some chatting, some taking pictures, some playing around, but very few of them were actually practicing martial arts.

The three of them watched all this in silence and walked quickly towards the main building. On the way, they met some students who knew Lie Haiwang. They were all very enthusiastic, but few of them asked for advice. Most of them wanted to take photos with them.

"Brother Lie, is this the situation in the domestic martial arts community now? It's really hard to imagine."

"I... haven't been back to China for a few years. When I left, it was obviously not like this now."

Lie's face darkened as he wanted to make some excuses, but facts speak louder than words. He just hoped that the current situation was an isolated case, otherwise... Alas.

When Chen Tianqiao stepped into the main office building, he felt for a moment that he had stepped into the five-star hotel where he and Garuda had their honeymoon, because the layout of both sides was almost exactly the same.

"Hey, isn't this Lie Haiwang? I heard that you invited a master from abroad to come back."

"Long time no see, King Liehai."

"Humph! Lie Yongzhou, you can't escape this time!"

"........."

I saw a group of people with peculiar styles and strange shapes slowly walking down the spiral staircase on the other side of the counter. Except for some people with cold eyes, the rest had a good relationship with Lie.

Ignoring the threatening and mocking words, Lie whispered to Chen Tianqiao: "Xuzhou Yang Haiwang is good at Vajra Fist and specializes in external skills."

"Hainan Jeet Kune Do Sun Hai Wang is good at Jeet Kune Do. I heard that he is the grandson of the administrator of the martial arts association."

"Linzi Chuhai Wang is good at Tongbeiquan. Because he is taller than others, he has the upper hand and his attacks are extremely fierce."

Hmm? He is indeed very tall, almost as tall as me, except for his physique.

"Like Liu Longguang, Li Haiwang of Sichuan Shu is good at Tangshou and joint techniques."

"Finally, Hong Kong's Chen Haiwang is good at Sanhequan."

After listening, Chen Tianqiao nodded slightly. Judging from the other party's appearance, he seemed to be coming with bad intentions, and good people would not come.

"King Lie Hai, I heard that you found an outside aid, could it be this person?"

The sea kings came up to the three people, led by none other than Aquaman, who was 2.7 meters tall, one section taller than Chen Tianqiao. When he moved, his hands and feet were like guns, as if he could give someone a fatal blow at any time.

"So what? You are well-informed about the news of the Sea King. I just brought him to the Martial Arts Association, but you have been waiting here for a long time. I don't know what you are thinking!"

"Humph, don't do it if you don't want others to know! It's you who wanted to collude with outsiders to get a place in the Sea King competition. We already knew all this!"

Hearing this, Lie Gu's bronze face turned slightly cold, and he said with a fierce look in his eyes: "The competition quota is originally obtained through hard work. Even if you get it, I'm afraid you can't hold on to it."

Lie's words were like a map cannon, which was indirectly saying that none of these sea kings were qualified to participate in the Sea King Competition.

"Mr. Lie! I know you have some abilities. You made a great name for yourself back then! But that is your own ability. Others can't say for sure. Being big doesn't mean you are strong. Your body may be just like a piece of rotten fish or shrimp."

After saying this, King Yanghai glanced sideways at King Chuhai, and his meaning of indirectly criticizing others was self-evident.

The two men once had a dispute over the dirty tricks between their disciples. When they wanted to fight, they were dissuaded by people from the Wushu Association. Since then, Yang Haiwang has been brooding over it.

Big? Rotten fish and shrimp! Aquaman was furious and clenched his fists.

If he hadn't been the one leading today's incident, and if everyone hadn't joined together to cause trouble for Lie Yongzhou, they might have used Tongbeiquan to smash that guy's head on the spot.

"King Yang Hai is right. Our Chinese martial arts world is no different from other places. True gold is not afraid of fire. Whether it is a mule or a horse, take it out for a walk. I wonder what this great master thinks?"

Now is not the time for internal strife. The places for the Poseidon Arena Tournament have already been divided up. Suddenly a dragon from across the river shows up and says he wants to participate. That’s not a big deal, even if he’s your friend, King Lie of the Sea.

"What King Chu Hai said makes sense." King Li Hai agreed and smiled.

"It should be so." King Chen Hai nodded.

 

Chapter 52 Conflict

Judging from the attitudes of these sea kings, they have obviously been in collusion for a long time. Not only do they want to embarrass Lie Haiwang, but they also want to prevent his friends from participating in the competition.

"You! Guys! In that case, then we will..."

Veins popped out on Lie Haiwang's forehead. He was the one who invited these people. In the past few years in the country, the new Haiwangs were so aggressive that he couldn't save face. He might as well have a fight with them.

"Hey, don't be angry, brother Lie. It's not worth it for these pustules. Didn't they say I was a rotten fish? Why not let them come and help me?"

Chen Tianqiao raised his hand to stop Lie Gu's stick. Suddenly, all the murderous energy accumulated from killing hundreds and thousands of people on the battlefield in the Middle East was poured out towards the opponent without reservation.

“…This…can’t…!”

"Incredible!"

In an instant, many sea kings felt as if they were falling into an ice cellar. The figure before them emitting a terrifying aura seemed to have turned into an Asura ghost or a Mara evil spirit, awakening the most primitive fear in everyone's heart.

"boom"

Suddenly, there was a loud noise. It was King Yang Hai who used his Vajra Fist to cheer up the people and stomped his feet on the ground to wake up the confused people.

"Your Excellency is indeed a good man, but this kind of ghost realm technique is not up to par. Xuzhou King Kong Fist Yang Wei, please teach me!"

"Damn it! All the reputation was taken away by King Yang Hai." Although he secretly hated it in his heart, he was unwilling to give up the right to speak, so he followed closely and said.

"Linzi Tongbei Fist can eliminate the monkey mind. Please teach me."

"Li Ming, the Tang Hand from Sichuan, please teach me."

"Hong Kong Sanhequan Chen Jialuo, please teach me."

"Sun Linyuan of Hainan Jeet Kune Do, please teach me."

The five sea kings were so imposing that everyone in the hall fled one by one to avoid being implicated. They sneaked out through the side door, which didn't look like a place for martial arts training at all.

At this time, Lie Yongzhou was dumbfounded, looking at those who called themselves the Sea King, gritting his teeth in anger. Is this the dignified Sea King of China? Bullying the minority with the majority?! Shameless!

"Brother Lie, I suddenly remembered something. Can you tell me?"

Glancing at them with contempt, Chen Tianqiao turned to Liefa and asked.

In fact, he doesn't care whether the other side wants a group fight or a round-robin fight. What really bothers him is that he is in the country. If he rashly uses force, he may end up in trouble.

After all, he has people from the Tokugawa family in Japan who help him deal with some unnecessary official troubles, but it is not so convenient on the mainland.

"Brother Chen, just tell me if you need my help. These guys are really going too far!"

Hearing this, his heart warmed up. Lie was indeed a good friend, the kind who would really help others. Thinking of this, he waved his hand and said:

"I don't mean anything else. I just want to ask how the authorities will deal with it if these people are eliminated."
