In the conference room.
Wu Chuan arrived a step later.
Old man Li had already returned to normal by now. He glanced at Wu Chuan, snorted softly, and did not speak.
Comment, my ass!
You're the young man!
The news spread very quickly. Everyone had just returned to mcmau, and the outside world had already begun to spread the news. It was all because of Wu Chuan, this shameless person, who was spouting nonsense in front of the reporters who had rushed over.
Wu Chuan's face was nonchalant. 'As The Guardian, what's wrong with me giving you some comments?'
After finding a place to sit down, Fang ping had returned to normal.
President Lin and the others were also seated.
When Wu Chuan arrived, President Lin smiled and said,"Congratulations, Vice-Chancellor Fang!"
Although Fang ping and Li Changsheng had only sparred in this battle, Fang ping had also displayed his true strength of the origin Dao after the battle.
It was his own battle prowess that had reached the level of the Dao of origin, and not by relying on external objects or means like self-destruction.
Fang ping was in a good mood. He chuckled and said,"Same here, same here. I haven't had the time to congratulate the president for entering rank-9."
President Lin smiled helplessly."No, you'd better not congratulate me. If you did, where would I put my face?"
"Old Lin, you didn't have this attitude before," Wu Chuan interjected. I remember that when you arrived, you said that two shameless people were having a martial arts competition, and you came to see the shameless people ..."
As soon as he said this, President Liu, who was sitting at the side, shrank his body. This had nothing to do with him.
The Guardian had started to sow discord. If the Guild leader was beaten down, he would not care.
I've just entered rank-8!
Chairman Liu, who had once thought that rank-8 was out of reach, now really felt that rank-8 was just "that"!
"Fang ping, this brat, has said several times that he wants to beat me up. You rank-9 powerhouses can continue chatting and pretend I don't exist.
President Lin's smile froze!
Why was Wu Chuan so talkative?
You're The Guardian, how can you be so petty?
What's wrong with China?
From top to bottom, there was not a single good person. It was fine if he really did not want to be the president. He had been in charge of the rankings for the past two years, and everyone was dissatisfied with his ranking. They had thought that a rank-9 could withstand the pressure.
From the looks of it ... Perhaps it would be better for him to resign.
President Lin shot a glance at Wu Chuan, then at Fang ping and Li Changsheng, who were both smiling but not smiling. He coughed dryly and said,"That ... Let's talk business! Let's get down to business!"
"Let's not talk about other things. We came to Shanghai this time because we have something to do. "
President Lin's smile returned, as if he hadn't heard those words. He quickly said,""Vice-Chancellor Fang, Dean li ..."
"Elder Lin, there's something wrong with your way of addressing me!"
Old man Li seemed to be picking a fight on purpose. He said with a smile, "I'm this kid's teacher and senior. You're so snobbish. He's young and his position is higher than mine, so you're calling him by his name? That's not appropriate, is it?"
A longsword appeared in old man Li's hand. He caressed the longsword as if he was wiping it. He sighed."The human heart is not what it used to be!"
President Lin's head was as big as a bull. D * MN, he had entered a thieves 'lair!
If he had known, he wouldn't have come!
However, it was too late now. Suppressing his desire to fight this fellow one-on-one, President Lin coughed dryly once more."Li ..."
He was about to continue addressing Fang ping when he saw that Fang ping seemed to be rubbing his fists. He was so angry that his face turned green. 'Alright, I'm not going to address him anymore!'
"Let's get down to business. It's like this!"
President Lin went straight to the point and quickly said,"The World Martial Arts Association is contacting all parties this time. They've invited peak rank-eight powerhouses from all countries and Holy Lands to have a meeting with some rank-nines who have yet to officially step into the origin path."
"It's mainly to discuss the matter of the king battle arena ... It just so happens that the first and second rank-8 powerhouses are both here at mcmau. Lu Zhen is also a powerhouse who has yet to step into the origin Dao. "
When it came to serious business, President Lin became much more serious.
He had a look that said,"if you dare to interrupt, I won't say anything." He was forcing everyone to forget what had just happened.
Fang ping laughed and quickly said,"President, please continue." Gathering peak rank-8 and weak rank-9 martial artists to discuss the king war zone? In that case, the various countries and great Holy Lands still want a share of the profits from the king battle field?"
President Lin nodded."I'm afraid that's what I'm thinking. As of now, the king Battle Ground has not been completely destroyed. Experts who have officially stepped into the origin Dao are still unable to enter."
"This matter concerns the two kings of the catacombs. The various great Holy Lands have been exploring the king battle grounds all these years. Now that it's the final juncture, no one will give up easily." "Why is the martial arts Association in charge of this?" Fang ping asked curiously.
President Lin looked at him in surprise and said after a while,""The martial arts Association ... You can actually understand it as the Foreign Affairs Department! We're the link between the martial arts powerhouses of the various countries and the Holy Lands. "
'Fang ping, this guy, other than knowing the rankings, what else do you care about?
The existence of the martial arts Association was to coordinate matters between martial artists from various countries.
This guy actually asked why we're in charge?
Nonsense, if we don't care, how did you participate in the youth tournament?
President Lin cursed in his heart, but he kept a smile on his face. Forget it, I can't beat this kid, so I'll just accept my fate.
Old man Li did not care about this. Instead, he said with a slightly heavy tone,"The two kings of the king battlefield have awakened! They're all top-tier experts among the true Kings, yet the sacred lands still want to go in and get a share of the loot?"
"Isn't this money over life!"
Old man Li was a little dissatisfied. It was extremely dangerous inside now. If a rank-8 or rank-9 powerhouse went in now, it was no different from courting death!
President Lin thought for a moment before saying,"this is also news from the world Martial Arts Association. Minister Zhang and the others aren't around right now. I've asked Vice Minister Wu and vice commander li, and they've said that we can participate, but we'll see if we can go or not."
Wu kuishan and Li deyong's intention was to join in and take a look first to prevent missing any important information.
As for whether they could enter, that was another matter.
"What does Saturn city mean?" Wu Chuan asked.
"Those clans in star-suppression city have replied that they want to participate in it. They'd better be the head of this action!"
President Lin laughed,"as you all know, star suppression city has been exploring the king's battle Ground for hundreds of years. They have been fighting in the king's battle Ground all this time." They won't give up at this critical moment. "
"That's true,"
Wu Chuan nodded. He was not surprised.
Previously, almost all of the high-ranked martial artists in Star Town City had been fighting in the king battle zone.
Now that the two kings had appeared, they would definitely not give up.
Fang ping thought for a moment and said,'what exactly is inside the king's battlefield? If it's for the second king, it's useless for us to go in! "The true Kings of the catacombs are also planning to join forces to break through the king Battle Ground. I don't think it's too difficult.
However, so many people are scheming to seize the two kings 'great DAOs?"
"I'm not too sure about that, but the Holy Lands should know. I don't think it's just for the two kings. "President Lin smiled. Of course, it could also be.
You all know that the two kings are actually experts under the command of the demon Emperor. They have experienced the emperor's era.
They knew too many things, including some secrets about the Emperor realm!
Also, the most important point is ..."
"They ... Might know what the seed of resurrection is!" President Lin said in a serious tone. According to the information from the catacombs, the seed of resurrection had appeared after the demon sovereign had been destroyed. This meant that the two kings had experienced this before!
How long had the two kings lived?
They might have been here longer than the realmlands. During the demon Emperor calendar, the realmlands did not seem to have appeared.
These two old fogeys are indeed very important. They might be insiders from back then, so they might have some clues. "
Fang ping shook his head."That's not something we can participate in. The two kings 'combat strength is comparable to the heavenly suppression King. They're the top true king powerhouses! We're considered strong in the eyes of ordinary Warriors, but they can kill us with a single breath. "
Upon hearing this, Wu Chuan said thoughtfully,"the two kings might not have fully recovered yet, or they might not be able to make a move." The most troublesome part of the Royal battlefield was the large amount of chaos origin Dao, which was extremely powerful.
Now that the great Holy Lands have suddenly called for a meeting, I think they know that the two kings have been restricted and want to use this to achieve some goals. "
Fang ping looked at him strangely.
Wu Chuan was a little unhappy with his gaze. He raised his eyebrows and said, "What's wrong?"
"That ... Senior brother Wu, you're one of the seven leaders of China. Why do I feel like you're just guessing and don't have any right to know?"
"……"
The entire Hall fell silent!
Wu Chuan's expression was extremely good!
What did that mean?
"I only care about the catacombs in the South. The rest has nothing to do with me!" Wu Chuan mumbled after a long while.
This is what happened, do you understand?
I don't care about anything else!
Cough, cough, he couldn't care.
As the southern Guardian with the weakest qualifications, he was the youngest and the one with the least right to know.
Besides, this was related to the Holy Lands like Star Town City, and he had never been in contact with them before.
Those guys would only look for the three departments to solve their problems, not him.
Fang ping noticed that his words had made old Wu's face darken, so he quickly cupped his fists to show his respect. He held back his laughter and continued, "Let's not talk about senior brother Wu for now. Guild leader Lin, what everyone's thinking now is to let peak rank-8 and weak rank-9 gather first ...
It can't be that he wants us all to enter the King Battle Ground, right?
Did you gather us in advance to discuss how to gain benefits?"
"I'm not sure about that yet, but this time, it's God's paradise who called for this. "
"Most of the people at the peak of the city left with the ministers," President Lin explained. God's paradise was currently the strongest, and they also had the war god, sun god, and a few others, so they were leading this time.
"The World Martial Arts Association wants to gather first and discuss the details when we get there."
"Where is the location?"
"It hasn't been decided yet. It'll be after the new year. All parties are now seeking the opinions of peak rank-8 and rank-9 martial artists to see how many they can gather."
President Lin explained once again. When one reached the peak of rank-8, they could not be gathered with just a call to arms.
Like mcmau, he had personally come to invite them.
"In an era where paragons do not emerge, these people are all overlords. Sino nation is still fine, but in some countries, a weak rank-9 is the king of a country.
It was almost impossible to expect the other party to come without a personal invitation.
"The gods" paradise ..."
Fang Ping's eyes moved slightly."Speaking of gods 'paradise, I've thought of someone. Zarikaluo returned to gods' paradise the last time. How is he now?"
That evil sect's third elder was not a true evil sect member.
A chess piece from Lizhu!
Fang ping had also told old Zhang about it, but he did not know what old Zhang had planned.
"Zarikalu...I know about this."
This time, Wu Chuan finally knew what was going on. He smiled and said,"Zarikaluo is still in God's paradise. There are some things that the ministers have arranged. He's a chess piece of Lizhu, and we have the same goal as Lizhu!
Before the start of the war, zarikaluo is not a threat, but an important link. Thus, we can not kill him yet. "
"Lizhu!"
At the mention of Lizhu, Fang ping frowned and said,"this time, two of the top powerhouses of Mount Andris and totem city have fallen!" Although our relationship with the other sacred lands isn't that great, we all have the same goal!
There weren't many human paragons to begin with, and the sudden loss of two was caused by Lizhu!
This guy is hiding in the back and taking advantage of us. Can't we just let him suffer a big loss?"
He was very wary of Li Zhu. This guy was either stupid or really ambitious!
After a few incidents, Fang ping felt that this person was even more cunning than old Zhang.
Fang ping knew that he was one of the go players on the surface.
This fellow had led several major events and caused the death of many true Kings.
Profound Jade monarch, two human paragons, the deaths of these people were all related to him.
A guy who had not shown any strength, hiding in the back and casually operating, had caused a great impact.
"This will depend on the opinions of the absolute mermaids."
Wu Chuan laughed."No matter how angry you are, it's useless. He's hiding in the depths of the catacombs. You can't do anything to him."
President Lin wasn't too sure about this and didn't want to talk about it. He said again,""Vice-Chancellor Fang, I've notified your side. When the specific time and place are arranged, you can go and participate ..."
Fang ping said directly,"overseas, I'm not going!" It was still alright in China! There's a peerless expert overseas who can threaten my life. "The catacombs 'wanted order is still there. I'm worried."
He was not afraid of anything in China.
However, when he was overseas, in other people's territory, if a Paragon felt that it would be good to take him down, he would not be able to resist.
Fang ping continued,"not just me, instructor li too!" Dean Lu was also there. Many people, including some experts from the five Holy Lands, had seen the pressure cannon he had made.
If he left the country, what if those people wanted to get the manufacturing method of the pressure cannon and forced him to do so?
"President Lin, please talk to the World Martial Arts Association about this. It's best to hold it in China."
President Lin pondered for a moment before saying,""Alright, then I'll go back and communicate with the other parties. God's paradise wants to go to Europe, and their peak powerhouses might appear.
If it was in China, their top would not necessarily come ...
Let's discuss it first, and we'll inform everyone when we have a result. "
"Alright," he said.
Fang ping nodded, but he did some calculations in his heart. This time, the human forces had ideas about the Royal battle Ground. On the side of the Tianming Royal Court, Ji Yao had also had ideas before.
In that case, perhaps they could really cooperate this time.
"Will they also send people in?"
Fang ping was slightly puzzled. Would it be useful to go in now?
Even if the two kings were restricted and couldn't make a move on the king Battle Ground, what was there that was worthy of the attention of the peak?
Since they allowed martialists below the origin Dao to enter, it was unlikely that it was for the two kings.
"These years, these people have been letting martial artists explore the king battle grounds. The ruins are only one aspect, there's probably another purpose! The others might not know, but the Wargod and the others should know. "
Fang ping was certain that the apex cultivators of Star Town City probably knew what it was for.
All the paragons of the six great Holy Lands should know!
Otherwise, they would not have allowed their descendants to enter the King battle grounds over the years, especially rank-nines. Some people deliberately did not leave the origin path just to stay in the king battle grounds.
"I'll ask the people in Star Town City later. "
Fang ping did not consider these anymore. Whether he went to the king Battle Ground or not, he had the final say.
The two kings were inside. Fang ping would not step in unless he was 100% sure that these two guys would not make a move.
At his current stage, he was not too afraid of any non-Paragon powerhouse, even if it was a top-notch origin Dao.
Although he was probably not a match for the other party, it would not be easy for the other party to kill him.
However, the gap between him and the true king realm was too great. He was not a match for them.
After discussing this for a while, President Lin said,""There's one more thing I need to remind you of, Vice-Chancellor Fang. The World Martial Arts Association also wants to trade some resources with you this time, and they've specially mentioned it."
"Everyone knows about your title as Duobao by now," President Lin said with a smile. "This is actually worth a try. "These sacred lands have also been guarding the catacombs for many years. The four major regions-North, South, East, and West-are still somewhat different.
Some things were specialties of the various regions. Some people at the peak of these Holy Lands lived long lives and didn't always stay in the defensive Sea Mountain ...
If you want to trade, you might be able to exchange for something that might be of help to you. "
Fang ping nodded slightly."That's fine. It's beneficial to the progress of martial arts if you communicate with other parties!" That's what I meant when I set up the trading platform before, but there aren't many experts from the various countries, and the Holy Land doesn't contribute. These guys are self-sufficient and don't seem to have any intention of participating, so I gave up. "
Fang ping laughed as he said this,"since they have such an idea, we can give it a try." However, I don't have anything good on hand right now ... Let's wait and see. "
Fang ping was not in a hurry. It did not matter if there was nothing good. If he really wanted to barter, if he saw something good and the other party did not want energy stones, he could go into the catacombs to look for it and get something back to trade.
……
After settling all this, Fang ping looked at Wu Chuan and asked with a smile,"If President Lin is here for this, then senior brother Wu wouldn't be here to watch the battle, right?"
Wu Chuan arrived very quickly.
The house of guardians in the South wasn't located in Shanghai, but somewhere else.
He probably didn't come to watch the battle since he came so quickly.
"I'm here for two things,"Wu Chuan replied.
"First, borrow soldiers!"
Wu Chuan laughed and said,"at the moment, Magic city's catacombs have been defeated. A large number of mcmau's powerhouses are idle. However, there are quite a number of catacombs in the South. Now, there's some pressure in other places."
"That's why I'm thinking that some of mcmau's powerhouses can go to the other catacombs in the South to fight.
"Dean Chen Zhenhua and the others all need to fight now. It's not a good idea to stay in mcmau all the time to improve through fighting."
As soon as he said that, old man Li said directly,"No problem! In fact, they have also prepared for this. Since the crisis in Shanghai has been eliminated, except for a portion of people who stayed behind to guard the city, the rest can go to battle in all directions. "
"That's good!"
Wu Chuan was also quite happy. With a combat force like mcmau, the pressure on the catacombs in the South would be greatly reduced.
"However, it also depends on the will of mcmau's powerhouses which side mcmau supports.
"Fortunately, the other bosses of the three ministries and four prefectures have left, but he's still here. He's also from mcmau, so he's in a favorable position.
"Second, it's related to Fang ping."
Wu Chuan thought for a moment before saying,"actually, it's about senior brother Tian. Senior brother Tian's injuries were serious in this battle and he's almost crippled now." Even though he wasn't unconscious like the others, his mental energy was also on the verge of being destroyed, and he couldn't even walk on the origin Dao anymore.
"I heard that Fang ping sent a Holy fruit that might be able to heal injuries over to mcmau, but it was rejected by senior brother Tian.
I ... I also have some selfish motives. I think that since the others have been taken away by the Department heads, we should give the things to senior brother Tian first. "
"To be honest, if it can really heal injuries, it'd be better to give it to old Kong," Wu Chuan sighed softly. If he recovered, his combat power would be extremely strong and he would be of great help to China. This was probably what senior brother Tian was thinking.
But ... I really want to be selfish this time.
Old Kong and the others were miserable, but senior brother Tian was even worse off. His entire family had died in battle all these years!
Now that he had become a cripple, what was good for him?
"He's been fighting in the catacombs all his life. Now that he's crippled, are you going to let him retire?
This wasn't retirement, this was waiting for death!
He's lost all his energy!"
Wu Chuan sighed and said,"I've gone to see him once. He's in very bad shape!" My hair has turned white, and I've aged overnight. I don't feel good about this. His mental energy was even more severely injured than Changsheng 's. This was probably not something that could be healed by ordinary things.
"As you all know, when I was in school, I actually stayed for many years. Before I became The Guardian of the South, I spent most of my time in mcmau.
Senior brother Tian taught me for a period of time back then, so he's considered half my teacher.
"His lover, children, and grandchildren have all died in battle. He's the only one left in his family, young and old. Now, even he's like this ... It's better to die in the catacombs."
Wu Chuan felt a little upset as he spoke. He sighed again and said,"Since he's not dead, and Fang ping seems to have obtained a treasure that can heal injuries, I still want to mention this."
Fang ping did not feel good either. He said helplessly,"I sent someone to deliver it to senior brother Tian before, but he refused to take it. They said that he was a weak rank-9. If he was crippled, so be it. When the department head and the others returned, they would try to pick the stronger ones to treat.
Senior brother Tian is a man of his word ... It's not that I don't agree to this, but I have no choice. "
Fang ping had his own selfish motives too.
Of course, he also wanted to save Tian Mu from the injured powerhouses.
Moreover, this old man was indeed very miserable. He had been fighting for his entire life. The old and young of the Tian family had died in the catacombs. Now, he himself had become a disabled person.
However, Tian Mu felt that his strength was weak, and it didn't matter whether he recovered or not, so he rejected him directly.
"That ..."
Wu Chuan was a little embarrassed, and his voice was much weaker. He said a little dryly,"What I mean is ... It's not just that healing fruit ... That ... That King song's origin Dao ..."
He couldn't even say this.
What he meant was that Fang ping should give that to Tian Mu as well.
However, this was the true king's origin Dao!
Even some top-notch rank-9s would be envious of this thing!
If Fang ping was willing to sell, those rank-9s would probably be able to break through the threshold.
However, if he agreed to give this to Tian Mu as well, Tian Mu might be able to use this opportunity to walk the path of King song's Dao of origin and quickly become a top-notch expert in the Dao of origin.
He might not be able to enter the absolute peak, but he definitely wouldn't be too weak.
When that time came, Tian Mu would have such strength and would no longer feel that he was a cripple.
As soon as he said that, old man Li glanced at Fang ping, coughed lightly, and said,"That ... Fang ping, actually ... If there's no suitable candidate, I think senior brother Tian is quite suitable.
"You guys probably won't walk King song's path anymore. You'll have to choose one from some peak rank-8s or weak rank-9s ... It'd be a waste to leave him idle.
Of course, this is the true king's essence Dao after all ..."
Even he couldn't say anything at this moment.
In the past, in order to take back what belonged to their patriarch, rank-9s had to die. The Yang family would not hesitate even if they were destroyed!
From this, one could see how important the path of the true king was!
Even the paragons were coveting it!
The Paragon might be able to take the opportunity to walk out a second Dao, even if the Dao might not be long, it did not matter.
Killing a true king was something that Zhang Tao and the others could do.
However, killing the true king and even leaving behind the Dao of origin was not simply a Dao path converted from an absolute art. It was a Dao path that was truly stripped from the true king. This thing was really luck, heaven-defying luck.
It was only Cang Mao who had fished out the pine King and knocked him out to strip. Otherwise, it was almost impossible for other experts to do so.
Fang ping could not help but laugh when he heard them say that. "You're all my teachers, why are you so embarrassed? I don't think the principal is embarrassed at all. He's so thick-skinned that he didn't even mention profound Jade King's Secret art ..."
After teasing Wu kuishan for a while, Fang ping continued,"If you guys didn't say it, I wouldn't have thought so much. I've always felt that the path of the catacombs 'true king was too weak ..."
He was influenced by old Zhang. He always felt that the path of the catacombs 'true king was too weak.
In his opinion, King song's origin path should be given to a rank-9 powerhouse who had no hope of reaching the pinnacle.
However, now that they had mentioned it, Fang ping suddenly realized that this thing was really precious. Although Tian Mu had always given him the feeling that he was very strong and determined, did Tian Mu have any hope of reaching the top?
That might not be the case!
Moreover, the old man was about to die now. Fang ping quickly said, "I'll make a trip there then. As for Grandmaster Kong and the others, I'll think of something else."
Wu Chuan suddenly heaved a sigh of relief. Then, he laughed in spite of himself and said,"You think of a way ... Why do I feel like you really think of yourself as the department head now?"
This kid ... A few top-notch martial grandmasters were injured, and even the absolute experts were helpless. He said that he would think of a way. He really did have the air of a Minister.
Fang ping smiled, but he was thinking of the cat tree.
If the cat fruit could really heal injuries caused by the Dao of origin, he could try to find this tree.
"Could the recovery of Li Zhu's origin Dao injuries be related to the cat fruit?"
Fang ping suddenly had such a thought, but he did not know if it was right.
"It seems like we still have to go to the catacombs. It's not reliable to count on old Zhang and the others!"
Fang ping sighed. When a person's ability was stronger, the responsibility they had to bear was greater.
In the end, he still had to rely on himself.
