Feng Jiajun's eyelids drooped slightly, but the smile on his face became much clearer. "Coach Xue..."
Xue Lei said modestly, "Not at all. I'm at most an assistant instructor in the dojo. I haven't finished my apprenticeship yet."
"Is that so? Which dojo is it? "
Xue Lei wouldn't let go of any opportunity to make the dojo famous. He immediately enunciated clearly, "River Wu District, Divine Yu Dojo."
"The dojo master's family is surnamed Xiu?" Feng Jiajun grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "I've heard a lot about you."
Xue Lei was startled and then delighted. "Coach Feng, you know our dojo master?"
"Of course I know him. He's a divine fish, after all. He's famous."
The word "fish" was especially long.
No matter how straightforward Xue Lei was, he still felt something was wrong. He looked again at Feng Jiajun, who was smiling and extending his hand. "We should also get to know each other."
In the martial arts circle, shaking hands wasn't a good thing.
Want to shake hands?
Xue Lei hesitated slightly, but seeing the other party's resolute attitude, he curled his lips and also extended his hand. The two shook hands.
He then heard Feng Jiajun continue, "I've heard of Dojo Master Xiu's great name for a long time. After all, it's rare to see someone who can open a fish dojo in Boshan Building for ten years. It's said that he'll be moving soon... "
Feng Jiajun wanted to display his relaxed attitude and speak fluently, but at the last moment, he suddenly choked.
Xue Lei raised his thick eyebrows. A teeth-numbing screeching sound came from where the two shook hands. Then there was a light explosion, like a slightly deflated balloon being burst.
At this moment, Feng Jiajun's palm was like a spirit snake. He withdrew from Xue Lei's five fingers, but his body unconsciously leaned back, stiffening for a moment before straightening again. He lowered his head to look at his own palm. His expression darkened, and the corner of his mouth twitched before recovering his smile.
"Your strength is polished quite well."
"Oh? Enemies meet on a narrow road? "
He Donglou sat up a bit and withdrew his arm from the back of the sofa. His palms banged against his abdomen, and he even rubbed them a couple of times. He had the attitude of watching a good show.
What you said wasn't wrong, but was it really good to say it directly?
Even Xie Junping had to concede defeat to He Donglou's silkpants ability. He thought to himself, If I don't drink and take pills, I'm afraid I won't be able to beat him.
Yao Feng felt that he had suffered an unexpected disaster, but he couldn't vent his anger. He could only rack his brains to persuade him, "It's common sense to spar in martial arts, but if you come too early, the later programs will be boring … Young Master He?"
"You're right." He Donglou readily accepted advice. He appeared to be quite easy to talk to, but once he opened his mouth, it was somewhat like his words were made of gold and jade. Feng Jiajun frowned slightly and finally took a step back.
However, Xue Lei wouldn't let him off so easily. He glared angrily at Feng Jiajun.
Seeing this, Feng Jiajun's eyes darkened.
Upon seeing the situation, He Donglou laughed. "Don't be anxious. Didn't you hear that there will be another program later? When the time comes, I'll give you a share. Sigh, I've been waiting for so long. Old Yao, where's your family's greatest treasure?
Yao Feng looked down at his wristband and forced a smile. "We're almost there."
He gave Xie Junping a meaningful glance as he spoke. Xie Junping understood tacitly and suppressed the unhappiness in his heart. He chuckled. "Young Master He, go ahead and play. We'll walk around a bit more."
He Donglou pointed at him with his hand. "Don't forget about the program."
Program my ass!
Xie Junping cursed in his mind. If he were to talk with Yao Feng for a while longer in this situation, Yao Feng would probably cry. He definitely wouldn't be in the mood to help them hook up with Tang Yi. From this, it could be seen that their primary goal in participating in this party was most likely to fail.
He and Hu Huaying dragged Luo Nan and Xue Lei away.
Xue Lei hadn't said a single word ever since he grabbed Xie Junping's hand. His expression was solemn, and his anger had yet to dissipate. He was pulled a few steps away by Hu Huaying, and then he turned his head to look back.
Feng Jiajun didn't respond. It looked like he was on the phone.
Luo Nan watched the entire exchange from beginning to end. He completely became a spectator. Whether it was smart or clumsy, the way these second generations dealt with each other was not his domain of expertise. He had no interest whatsoever.
Only Feng Jiajun's matter was baffling. It even involved Xiu Shenyu and his daoguan. Luo Nan had no choice but to worry.
His thoughts stirred slightly, and Feng Jiajun's words from a dozen meters away, including the general response from the other side, were all captured by his mental senses and transmitted back to him.
Xue Lei's expression was still quite ugly. He found it hard to calm his anger. "This Feng fellow is really baffling. Did our daoguan provoke him? Is Boshan Manor a hindrance to him? "
Luo Nan responded casually as he monitored the situation over there. "It's hard to say."
"Huh? You're saying?" Xue Lei wasn't stupid. Once he confirmed the key elements, he followed the vines to the melon. He soon pulled out a chain of clues. "The meaning behind this Feng fellow's words is that he's jealous that our daoguan is at Boshan Building? The Thunder Falcon Dojo is a big business. It wouldn't go so far as to …. Ah, could it be that he lost a bet back then and wants to get back at us? "
"That's about it."
Luo Nan remembered Xue Lei mentioning something. Back when Xiu Shenyu settled down in Xia City, he made a bet with someone and won the right to use the daoguan's grounds for ten years. Feng Jiajun had mentioned words like 'ten years' and 'moving away' when he was talking to Xue Lei. Luo Nan compared this to the information revealed in the conversation, and the situation became clearer.
Xue Lei spat. "The daoguan is about to move away before coming. What were you doing ten years ago …. This won't do. Nanster, I'm going to make a call."
"Contact the gym master?"
"Yes. The gym master never mentions these things, but he's about to provoke us. We can't muddle through it."
Luo Nan stared at him. "Be patient when you ask. Tell me later."
Xue Lei nodded. He found a secluded place and contacted the daoguan. Since Xiu Shenyu usually didn't carry electronic devices, the call was a bit more troublesome.
Luo Nan looked at Xue Lei's actions and subconsciously shook his head. "I might not be able to get the answer …. I need to go through other channels."
From Luo Nan's understanding of Gym Master Xiu, Gym Master Xiu was truly a man of few words. As long as Gym Master Xiu didn't want to talk, no matter how Xue Lei pestered him, Gym Master Xiu wouldn't get any answers.
Luo Nan wanted to find more channels to gather information in order to prevent the gym master from being stubborn. His best choice in Xia City was undoubtedly the Explorer's Society. The Society was able to absorb a powerful martial artist like Mr. Giant Arm. Presumably, the Society should have a good understanding of the matters of the circle.
Luo Nan pressed his earlobe out of habit. He had just logged onto the Psychic Wave Network, but he was unable to find anyone.
A small portion of the deep blue light in the environment was suddenly blocked by shadows. The remaining light shook violently. Some sort of oppressive factor caused the nearby people to instinctively turn their heads. Their gazes turned in the direction of the central crystal pillar.
An enormous and flat ferocious monster with a diameter of over fifteen meters could be seen near the inner wall of the crystal pillar. It was like an aircraft gliding at high speed. In the blink of an eye, it crossed dozens of meters of water. It rushed to the edge of the crystal pillar and fiercely collided with it. Its momentum was astonishing.
The collision momentum of such an enormous monster was enough to shake one's soul, even though they were separated by the crystal wall. Some of the partygoers had been sticking close to the crystal pillar to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the seabed. Who would've thought that the scene would suddenly change? They instinctively cried out in fear and retreated in panic. There were even some unlucky souls who tripped and fell on their butts, making a fool of themselves.
The monster, which looked more like a bat than a fish, suddenly rose up when it saw that it was about to collide head on. Its deathly pale belly practically stuck to the inner wall of the crystal pillar as it climbed up at high speed. It displayed its astonishing wingspan in the most direct way possible, as well as the rows of malevolent mouthparts on both sides of its belly.
Oh, and of course, one couldn't forget its slender tail that was ten meters long. The tail was densely covered in blue and black scales. It was like an iron-clad whip, and fine sparks of electricity even leaped and flowed on it.
Its enormous body, powerful mobility, strange body composition …. All sorts of elements formed the image of a terrifying monster fish, but this fellow didn't give up. After sticking close to the inner wall of the crystal pillar and climbing a certain distance, it fiercely flipped backwards. At the same time, it rapidly spun around the central axis of its body.
Everywhere it passed, the seawater would swirl. The rapidly spinning waves were actually as sharp as swords. Everywhere it passed, fish and prawns, big and small, would be minced into pieces and then sucked into the mouthparts on its belly. The seawater that was originally clear and limpid instantly became muddy and bloody.
The terrifying monster fish broke through the limits of a normal person's line of sight in the muddy whirlpool and disappeared without a trace.
Even though the participants were elites from first-rate schools, the majority of them couldn't help but be stupefied on the spot after suddenly witnessing such a bloody scene. They were speechless for a long time.
However, there were also a small number of people who were either prepared or had a different temperament. They were still able to face it calmly. There were even more people who laughed loudly in excitement. He Donglou was the one who laughed the loudest.
Even separated by over ten meters, his laughter could be heard. "This bastard is a mutant without a doubt. At the very least, it's a 'second class'. It's rare that its wild nature hasn't been eliminated, yet you guys were still able to capture it …"
Such a malevolent and terrifying monster fish had already far exceeded the limits of what a normal biological system could contain. It was indeed a mutant species. Professionals who were familiar with the Mutant Genealogy could see that this monster fish should have mutated from a manta ray, the devil ray that people often referred to as a foundation.
A normal manta ray was an ancient and gentle species. It had already lived on Earth for hundreds of millions of years. Its offensive capabilities weren't strong. It was only because of its robust body and its monstrous appearance that it received the name devil ray.
However, under the effects of Mutant, the monster fish within the crystal pillar had already become a devil in name and in reality. Especially the scene of indiscriminate slaughter before it left caused people to tremble with fear.
Xie Junping had just suffered quite a bit of fright, so much so that he bit his own cheek. His mood was even worse. He couldn't help but curse, "Yao Si doesn't want to do business anymore. Releasing this thing …."
Halfway through his words, he saw that Luo Nan and the others were looking behind him. He immediately turned around and saw Yao Feng with an ugly expression.
Xie Junping didn't feel embarrassed at all. He just laughed and said, "What's wrong? The young master of the He Family isn't going to serve you anymore? "
Yao Feng instinctively shot a glance behind him when he heard this, but he felt that his actions were too embarrassing. He waved his hand and laughed bitterly, "I won't be serving you for now. I'll hide for now. Rely on the mountain to survive. Rely on the sea to survive. You guys are a black-hearted drug dealer and a large farm owner. We don't need to pay attention to you guys, but we make a living on the sea. How can we bypass the coastal defense forces? Bypass this family? We have to curry favor with them …. "
