Chapter 191.2

Him?

Elder Qian suddenly became furious. Elder Zhou, how can we choose him as our leader? Hes the Emperor of a Dynasty, and we are a force of the rivers and lakes sect; our paths do not align!

Moreover, our leader died at their hands; he is our sworn enemy! So how can we possibly seek refuge with him?

Elder Qian, dont be so quick to refuse!

Elder Zhou said with a smile. The decision to seek refuge with His Majesty is the result of careful consideration! Firstly, our Beggar Sect no longer has a Grandmaster, and without a Grandmaster, you know the fate that awaits us.

But if we seek refuge with Great Xia, all these problems can be immediately solved! Because not only does Great Xia have a Grandmaster, but they also have a divine sword! With the Sword Elder wielding the divine sword, even our leader was no match for him!

Elder Qian was very displeased and snorted, There are many Grandmasters in the world; why must we seek refuge with him? So even if you talked until the end of time, I will never agree!

Elder Zhou continued to smile calmly, Secondly, His Majesty is a wise and just ruler who greatly values and rewards talent. For the first time, I felt respected while working for him!

What can he give? Nothing more than glory, wealth, and treasures?

Elder Qian looked into Elder Zhous eyes, filled with disappointment, Elder Zhou, youve changed! You used to have great and noble ideals, aspiring to revitalize the Beggar Sect. How have you become so superficial and vain?

If it were just for some gold and silver, I too would not have sought refuge with His Majesty!

Elder Zhou pulled out a small box from his bosom and tossed it over: This is a reward from His Majesty to me. Take a look!

Elder Qian caught it and asked curiously, Whats inside?

Open it and see for yourself, then youll know!

Elder Qian immediately opened the box and was so shocked that his eyes nearly popped out, his voice trembling as he said, This is the Dragon-Tiger Pill that can heal injuries and boost strength, and there are three of them!

There are also two of these Tranquil Heart Pills that calm the mind and prevent qi deviation!

And this its actually the legendary Nirvana Pill!

Its said that once the Nirvana Pill is swallowed, if one encounters a life-threatening crisis later on, the pill will work its miraculous effects, rapidly replenishing the bodys vitality and True Qi and healing all injuries!

Its like giving someone an extra life!

Elder Zhou smiled and said, As expected of the knowledgeable Elder Qian, you recognized them all!

How do you have so many excellent pills? Did you perform some great service for the Great Xia Emperor, so he rewarded you? Elder Qian, looking at the divine elixir in the box with eyes turning red, wished he could claim them for himself.

Elder Zhou shook his head: I havent performed any great service! Its just that when I pledged my loyalty to His Majesty before, he bestowed these three kinds of divine elixir upon me! There are many other divine elixirs that are hard to come by, which can only be obtained after rendering great services in the future!

Elder Qian took a sharp breath: Just for pledging loyalty, you received these three kinds of divine elixir!

At that moment, he felt like running to Great Xia to pledge his loyalty

These pills are just a part of the rewards! There must be other rewards that are no less impressive than the pills!

What else did he reward you with? Tell me quickly! Elder Qians eyes were red with eagerness.

The Emperor also bestowed divine skill manuals!

Elder Qian was astonished: What? He rewarded you with divine skill manuals?

Yes!

Elder Zhou reminisced, The Nine Yin Manual, Nine Yang Manual, Six Meridians Divine Sword there are more than 20 in total, each one no less powerful than the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. I really want to learn them all!

Youre lying, I dont believe it! Elder Qian scoffed.

You see, divine skill manuals are the foundation of a sects establishment.

For their Beggar Sect, only the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms and the Dog Beating Staff could be considered divine skills.

Even long-established sects like Shaolin and Wudang only possess a few divine skill manuals. (TLN: Shaolin and Wudang here probably refer to the Buddhist and Taoist Sect.)

How could a newly established Dynasty possibly have so many divine skills?

I know you dont believe it, but you can come and see for yourself, then youll know whether Im telling the truth! Elder Zhou extended his hand.

Elder Qian was very skeptical, but couldnt resist his curiosity.

So, he walked over in two steps and grabbed Elder Zhous hand to check.

At that moment, his face changed dramatically: Your tendons and bones theyve opened up again?

In martial arts, the body is the foundation of everything, and the tendons and bones are key.

If the tendons and bones are set, it means the body has taken shape and lost its potential. If they are open or not yet healed, it means the body can still grow and has the potential to be tapped.

Elder Zhou was already over 80 years old, and logically, his tendons and bones should have been set for decades, making it impossible to open them again, but now it was beyond his expectations!

Unless he had cultivated

Indeed!

Elder Zhou stroked his beard, smiling proudly: I have now cultivated the I Ching Bone Tempering chapter of the Nine Yin Manual, and in just a few days, Ive already seen some results! If I continue to cultivate, I can surely rejuvenate my tendons and bones, reshaping them! In doing so, my strength will inevitably increase significantly again, and Imperial Qi is in sight! Haha

At this moment, Elder Qian was so envious he was nearly driven mad!

To his knowledge, the only divine skills that could reopen the tendons and bones were the Yi Jin Jing (Tendon Changing Classic) and Xi Sui Jing (Marrow Cleansing Classic) from the Shaolin Temple!

Now, this Nine Yin Manual could also do it!

If this isnt a divine skill, what is?

Elder Zhou, could you please teach me this divine skill?

Elder Qian said with great excitement, As long as you give me this divine skill, I will agree to do whatever you ask of me!

Elder Zhou shook his head, I cant do that. I dont have the authority to pass on the skill privately! Unless you pledge allegiance to His Majesty and gain his approval, he will naturally bestow the divine skill upon you!

Fine! I will join now. When do we go to Great Xia to pay respects to His Majesty? Elder Qian said without any hesitation.

His straightforwardness left Elder Zhou dumbfounded.

Elder Qian, didnt you say that His Majesty is the Dynasty Emperor, and we are from the rivers and lakes sects, so our paths do not align?

Elder Qian immediately quibbled, I did say that, but on second thought, we are actually kindred spirits! Although there is the word sect in Beggar Sect, in the end, we are just a group of beggars, essentially subjects of a ruler. Whats wrong with serving His Majesty?

Elder Qian, didnt you say that they killed our leader, so they are Beggar Sects sworn enemy, and that we cannot seek refuge with him?

Elder Qian continued to quibble, We do have a deep blood feud, but as the saying goes, it is better to resolve enmity than to perpetuate it. Tell me, when will the cycle of vengeance end? This is something even the ancients knew. Therefore, we should put aside our grievances and turn hostility into friendship! Pledging allegiance to His Majesty is the best way to resolve these enmities! Our leader would be very pleased if he knew this from the underworld!

Elder Qian, didnt you say that even if I talked until the end of time, you would never agree?

Elder Qian quibbled again. The problem is that you cant talk until the end of time. Since you cant, Ive agreed, okay?

Elder Qian

Elder Qian became angry, Enough! Elder Zhou, when will you ever be done? I just want to do something for His Majesty, why is it so difficult? You keep obstructing me over and over again, what are your intentions? Can you bear the responsibility if you spoil His Majestys plans?

Elder Zhou:

Well, since the other party has put it this way, theres no choice but to agree!

Elder Zhou gave Elder Qian a disdainful look.

True to his reputation as the notorious slick old fox of the Beggar Sect, he rushes unstoppable headlong at the sight of any benefit!
