Chapter 21 Shangguan Haitang, the Rebellion of Huogong Toudao
Of course Captain Xing had heard of the famous Hulong Villa!

Even though it does not have a leadership relationship like the Six Gates, it was founded by the order of the late emperor after all. It is above all court institutions and is responsible for monitoring the world. It is an existence that he cannot afford to offend.

Even Captain Xing had never thought in his life that he would one day be able to reach a level like the Huolong Villa.

After seeing the name of Hulong Villa, Captain Xing jumped up, and the next second, his face was filled with a flattering smile.

"I didn't know it was the master from Hulong Villa who came. I'm sorry for not welcoming you... This, this is Master Li."

Captain Xing hurriedly introduced Li Ming to the woman.

At the same time, Li Ming was also observing the woman.

After hearing the name of Hulong Villa, Li Ming was also stunned. It seemed that he had no connection with this intelligence agency. Why would someone come to find him?
But then he looked at the woman in front of him.

Although she is said to be a woman, her dress is more neutral. She is very eye-catching in a white dress and has a heroic temperament.

According to Li Ming's memory of the plot, there are four secret spies in Hulong Villa, Tiandi Xuanhuang. The person in front of him is at the innate realm and should not be an unknown person in Hulong Villa. Based on her appearance, Li Ming has already made a guess.

Could she be the number one secret agent of Hulong Villa, Shangguan Haitang?

Guessing that, the other party also looked at Li Ming after being introduced by Captain Xing.

But after seeing it clearly, I was stunned.

Because Li Ming looked good, and he sat there calmly sipping tea, and he looked like a master, but he was too... young, wasn't he? And no matter how he sensed, the aura on the other person was at most at the Gang Realm.

The woman reacted immediately and realized that the other party must have a special method to conceal his breath.

"Master Li, nice to meet you. My surname is Shangguan."

"It's indeed Shangguan Haitang!" Li Ming completely confirmed his guess.

"I wonder what you want from me?"

Shangguan Haitang did not beat around the bush and sat down opposite Li Ming. She said directly, "To be honest, I came here for the bandit leaders of the Black Wind Village in Tsz Wan Shan. However, as soon as I arrived nearby, I heard that they had died at the hands of Master Li."

Coming for the bandits?

Li Ming was full of confusion. In this turbulent world of martial arts, there were bandits like the Black Wind Village everywhere. There were also many notorious bandits and ruthless characters like the flower-stealing thieves in the world.

The Huolong Villa is of such a high level, they wouldn't come here just for a bunch of bandits, right?

Seeing Li Ming's puzzled expression, Shangguan Haitang continued.

"Master Li, please do not doubt me. I came here for another matter. Master Li, do you know Tianzun?"

"Tianzun, is this the mysterious organization that specializes in recruiting scum?" Bai Zhantang came over and asked.

Shangguan Haitang nodded: "Yes, Tianzun has been recruiting masters from all walks of life recently. Most of its members are scums in the martial arts world, causing trouble everywhere, but its leader behind the scenes is still a mystery. We at Hulong Villa have also been tracking Tianzun's whereabouts recently."

"Recently, we received news that the leader of Black Wind Village, Huang Xiao, successfully broke through the Xiantian realm, and he also secretly received an invitation from Tianzun and just joined. Therefore, I rushed here to follow the clues, but..."

Shangguan Haitang couldn't help but sigh when she said this.

But it was still too late, Huang Xiao had already died at the hands of Li Ming.

Tianzun...

Li Ming nodded, but his heart was as clear as a mirror.

The Tianzun organization may seem mysterious to others, but to him who is familiar with the plot, there are no secrets at all.

Li Ming was of course aware that the mastermind behind Tianzun was actually Murong Qiudi, the daughter of Murong Zheng, the owner of Qixingtang.

At the same time, she is also the fiancée of the young master of Shenjian Villa, Sword God Xie Xiaofeng.

Li Ming remembered that it was Xie Xiaofeng who abandoned Murong Qiudi on their wedding night, causing her to completely turn evil and secretly establish the Tianzun organization, recruiting various masters, with the ultimate goal of revenge against Xie Xiaofeng and annexing the Shenjian Villa. However, Li Ming remembered that there was also a saying that although there were many scums inside Tianzun, they were actually secretly working for the imperial power and assassinated many people.

But at least it seems that these people in the Hulong Villa are completely unaware of the situation and are still tracking down the whereabouts of Tianzun.

Seeing that Li Ming didn't say anything, Shangguan Haitang thought that he was stunned by the explosive news, so she sighed and continued.

"In this case, Master Li might get into some trouble, because the person Master Li killed was not only the bandit leader Huang Xiao, but also a member of the Heavenly Lord. This might lead to revenge from the Heavenly Lord."

Li Ming frowned: "You came all the way here, didn't you just want to kindly remind me?"

"That's not it."

Shangguan Haitang said frankly, "I came here for the things on Huang Xiao's body. Huang Xiao is dead, but his connection with Tianzun must have left some clues. Maybe the clues are among the things he carried with him. So I want to ask Master Li if you have them. If so, you might as well give them to me."

"I see."

Li Ming picked up a bag and threw it to Shangguan Haitang.

"Here are Huang Xiao's things, take a look."

Shangguan Haitang thanked him and took it. She rummaged through the bag for a long time and then looked up in confusion.

"Excuse me, Master Li, are all the things here?"

"Of course. We in Qianming Martial Arts School are the most reasonable. We will not take anything that is not ours!"

Li Ming looked normal, not even breathing heavily.

But in fact, only he himself knew that after he killed Huang Xiao and others, he naturally searched the bodies of the three bandits without hesitation and truly experienced the fun of touching corpses and opening blind boxes.

Except for Ye Fenglan who was wearing too cool clothes and had nothing except the flying needles hidden all over her body, Huang Xiao and Cheng Xiu both carried some luggage with them.

Li Ming had already looked through the box without any hesitation and took away a large number of silver bills, elixirs and valuables for himself.

The bag thrown to Shangguan Haitang now contains things that are of no value to her.

Seeing that Li Ming spoke so confidently, Shangguan Haitang did not doubt him and simply packed up her bag, planning to go back and study it carefully.

But after finishing her work, she had no intention of leaving. Instead, she looked at Li Ming with great interest.

According to rumors, this Master Li is only at the Postnatal Realm, but he can actually defeat the Innate Realm, which is absolutely not something that ordinary people can do!

Moreover, capturing hundreds of bandits at one time is an astonishing record. I wonder what method he used?
Facing Li Ming, Shangguan Haitang's occupational disease as a spy came back and she always wanted to find out more.

Thinking of this, she decisively called Tong Xiangyu and asked for a guest room, intending to stay there for two days to observe.

at the same time.

Far away in Songshan, in the thousand-year-old Shaolin Temple located on the Shaoshi Mountain——

Led by a monk, Du Dajin walked into a meditation room and handed the boxing manual in his hand to several white-bearded monks in front of him.

Shaolin Abbot Master Xuanci took it and looked through it again and again, his expression changing again and again.

"Yes, this is the original boxing manual of our Shaolin that has been lost for many years! This Luohan Subduing Tiger Fist was originally written by a Shaolin monk, but a part of it was destroyed during the Huogong Toudao Rebellion many years ago. I never thought that I could see the original version in my lifetime!"

Abbot Xuanci said this and handed the boxing manual to the head monk of Damo Academy.

Several old monks present exchanged glances with each other, and there was a flash of heat in their eyes.

Xuan Ci looked at Du Dajin: "Where is this martial arts school you mentioned? Maybe he has hidden more of our Shaolin secrets!"
