"Mother, there's no need!"
Wang Chong quickly said.
"Why?"
Madam Wang was surprised. Wang Chong's reaction was far beyond her expectations.
"Chong-er, I'm doing this for your sake! Actually, I should have hired a master for you long ago. It was only because of my father's absence and my negligence that this happened. Listen to your mother this time! "
"Mother, wait a moment. The Kunwu Training Camp hasn't officially started yet, right? Let's talk about it after some time. "
Wang Chong hurriedly dodged the question.
Wang Chong knew that his mother meant well, but with his situation, he didn't need a master at all. On the other hand, he could be someone else's master.
Bringing a master over, not knowing his background or depth, would instead restrict Wang Chong. He would have to consider many things, and he would not be able to do as he pleased.
For example, Wang Chong would have a lot of concerns about the secret Alchemist teams in the Imperial Palace and the Princes' mansions. After spending so much time together, he would eventually be discovered.
If that kind of secret was exposed and the Wang family was implicated, it would cause a huge uproar.
"What do you mean wait a while? By that time, it would be too late. Nonsense! Listen to me this time. I'll find a master for you. It's settled then! "
Madam Wang finally put on a stern face and displayed the authority of a parent. By the time the Three Great Training Camps started, what was the point of looking for a master? Wasn't that just fooling around?
"Ah, mother, I'll tell you the truth. Actually … actually I already have a master! "
Seeing that his mother was going to make decisions for him, Wang Chong finally "confessed".
"You have a master?"
Madam Wang's face was filled with astonishment.
"Yeah! Mother, haven't you noticed that my strength has increased a lot? Didn't I defeat Duke of Xu's grandson, Xu Xuan, at the Four Quarters Embassy? Actually, I already have a master. It was uncle who arranged it for me. "
At the critical moment, Wang Chong hurriedly summoned his uncle, Li Lin. His uncle was an expert from the Imperial Army. His presence would definitely be convincing.
"Your uncle?"
As expected, when she heard Uncle Li Lin's name, her mother frowned deeply, but she did not pursue the matter further.
"If it's a master that your uncle found for you, then it's possible. Your uncle is in the Imperial Army, and there are many experts in the Imperial Palace. With his ability, it would be more than enough for him to find a teacher for you. "
After saying so, Madam Wang finally gave up.
Wang Chong quickly changed the topic and found an excuse to change the topic, which made his mother laugh. Coming out of the room, Wang Chong wiped the cold sweat off his forehead.
"I'll have to inform Uncle about this matter, lest we expose ourselves."
Wang Chong thought to himself. Although he temporarily used his uncle as a shield, Wang Chong did not dare to be careless. Although his mother was easy to talk to at times, she wasn't easy to fool at other times.
Perhaps one day, he would ask about his master on a whim.
"Looks like that matter has to be brought forward!"
Wang Chong quietly said to himself as he recalled that matter. Setting off from his residence, Wang Chong drove straight to the Wei Residence.
"Wang Chong, hahaha, you're finally back!"
Upon hearing the news, Wei Hao ran out of his residence excitedly with a look of anticipation on his face. It had been a while since they last met, and Wei Hao's frame seemed to have grown significantly. His spirit was completely different from before.
Furthermore, he even brought along a few lackeys from the prestigious clans.
"I heard that you were out of the city, so I went to your residence a few times. The guards at your residence have no idea where you went. Right, these are my new lackeys, Tao Chun and Liu Jin. Hurry up and pay respect to Young Master Chong! "
Wei Hao laughed as he looked behind him.
"Paying respect to Young Master Chong!"
Upon hearing Wei Hao's words, the two scions hurriedly bowed. When he stood up, he glanced at Wang Chong in the carriage with a tinge of fear in his eyes.
There was probably no one in the Eight Gods Pavilion who didn't know of Wang Chong.
"It seems like you've been doing well recently!"
Wang Chong looked at the two scions in surprise. Wei Hao was known as a 'lone wolf' in the Eight Gods Pavilion. Other than him, he didn't have any friends.
But now, this fellow actually took in lackeys!
"Not bad! You've been living well recently! "
Wang Chong was here to look for Wei Hao, but at this moment, he wasn't in a hurry anymore.
"Hehe, of course! You might not know, but that lad, Gao Fei, has become extremely obedient after beating him up. Heh, do you think it'll be that easy for that lad, Su Bai, to lay a finger on me? Right now, in the Eight Gods Pavilion, I, Wei Hao, am an eight-legged crab! "
Wei Hao patted his chest gleefully.
"Haha, Youngster Wei, cut it out. I still don't know who you are. "
Wang Chong exposed him with a single sentence and beckoned him over.
"Come up, I have something to talk to you about!"
"Oh. You guys can return first. I'll look for you later. "
Seeing that Wang Chong was serious, Wei Hao beckoned to the two scions behind him, and without any hesitation, he immediately dived into Wang Chong's carriage.
The carriage began moving, and Wei Hao sat down opposite to Wang Chong.
"Wang Chong, what's the matter?"
"Wei Hao, do you remember what I told you previously? That I wanted you to look for someone for me? "
"Zhang Munian?"
"No, the other one. You can't have forgotten about it, right? "
Wang Chong said.
"You mean that."
Wei Hao immediately understood what he meant.
"Regarding the matter regarding the Charity Hall, I've done as you instructed. Right now, there are around thirty shops in the capital that are run by us. Every day, we would give out porridge, clothes, and blankets to the vagabonds and beggars. However, the daily expenses for these are huge, and you should be able to afford it. As for the old man you wanted me to look for, I've paid attention to him as well. I really didn't see him. "
Back then, after the incident at the Bluebottle Pavilion, Wang Chong's uncle interceded on his behalf, and he sold the first WuZi Steel Sword to Zhao Fengchen for thirty-seven thousand taels.
Wang Chong gave half of the money to Ablonodan and Arloja, and the other half to Wei Hao. It was then that Wang Chong requested Wei Hao to do him a favor.
The first matter was to set up the Charity Hall.
In his previous life, when the Wang Clan fell, Wang Chong's entire family wandered from place to place, experiencing all kinds of hardships in the world. They were treated coldly, looked down on, and starved.
This was because he had experienced such a life, and he had accepted gifts and help from others. Thus, he could understand why.
Regardless of the era, space-time continuum, or even the most prosperous era, there was no lack of vagabonds and beggars who wandered from place to place.
There were all sorts of reasons why these people wandered from place to place. Some of them were like Wang Chong in his previous life, some were born with a disability, some met with an unexpected calamity, some suffered a huge mental trauma, and some lost the land that they relied on for survival …
Regardless of the reason, every single one of them had a different tragedy to face!
Due to his own experience, Wang Chong wanted to set up the Charity Hall to help those in need. It was just like those people whose names he didn't know, but who had helped him in his previous life.
This was one of Wang Chong's wishes in his previous life!
The other matter was to look for a mysterious old man!
In his previous life, there were a few things that Wang Chong wanted the most, but he had never been able to obtain them! Even in his death, he had no fate with these things.
One of them was So Jung-son's Art of God and Demon Obliteration. In the Battle of the capital, So Jung-son had used his own strength to display a world-shaking sword art, killing thousands of the otherworldly invaders and stopping their offensive.
This supreme art had just revealed its edge and shocked the world when it was buried together with So Jung-son in the ruins of the capital, becoming a lost art.
In the days to come, there would be countless bloody battles that required this art, but no one would be able to use it.
Countless people sighed endlessly when they brought it up, revealing endless regret.
The other was the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art.
In the war against the otherworldly invaders in the Central Plains, there was one person who stood out the most. He didn't need any weapons, but he could easily kill a large number of the otherworldly invaders.
Before him, all the otherworldly invaders would be turned into withered corpses, their deaths extremely gruesome.
In the war against the otherworldly invaders, the might displayed by the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art was not one bit inferior to that of So Jung-son, who had fought against ten thousand in the capital.
In the apocalyptic era, this was publicly acknowledged as one of the Five Great Arts!
Unfortunately, even though this person had obtained the World Mining Art, his talent was far too lacking. His combat experience, reaction speed, agility, and adaptability were all incomparable to this supreme art.
Given this person's mediocre talent, he should never have learned this art.
Later on, he learned that this was indeed the case.
When this person was twenty-seven or twenty-eight, he had accomplished nothing and was working as a hired laborer in a wealthy clan. He didn't have much of a cultivation in martial arts, and he didn't even have much interest in it.
However, his greatest merit was that he had a kind heart. Normally, he would often help those in need.
Then, one day, for some unknown reason, he actually saved a peerless devil. When this demon was young, he committed all sorts of evil and killed countless people, inspiring fear in the world of sects.
But after he was betrayed and saved by that person, his personality underwent a huge change. He abandoned evil and became a kind and benevolent old man.
The old man had forced him to accept the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art, and had even led him onto a completely different path.
As if to atone for his sins, and also to change that person's overly ordinary and mediocre aptitude, the old man gave up all of his power and even his life. He used the Great Enlightenment Technique to transfer all of his power to that person, and from then on, he created a peerless genius.
As for the old man himself, he died from the dissipation of his cultivation!
Just like that, an ordinary twenty-eight-year-old man with mediocre talent became a top-notch expert in the span of a single night! In order to repay the old man's kindness, he hardened his heart and killed those who had betrayed the old man. At the same time, he also walked a path that he had never wanted to tread!
Wang Chong had never met that person, but all of this, including all of his encounters, had been spread by that person himself.
When a person stepped onto a path that he didn't like, even if he succeeded, he wouldn't be happy.
When a person was born with mediocre talent and had no intention of stepping onto the martial path, his fate was already sealed the moment he stepped onto this path in order to repay the old man's kindness.
In the end, that peerless expert who possessed the Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art fell into a heavy encirclement because of his mediocrity in combat. He was surrounded and killed by the horsemen of the foreign lands.
The 《Great Yinyang Heaven Creation Art》 was lost in the later stages as a result!
At that time, Wang Chong hadn't become the Grand Marshal of the Central Plains yet, and the martial artists of the Central Plains hadn't begun the campaign to promote martial arts to the public!
