Chapter 464 An Old Enemy
Chapter 464 An Old Enemy
“Holy sh*t. Stinky Priest! Lummox! How come you guys are disciples of Nanshan School? How is that possible?” Old Star-Lord shouts with wide eyes as if he saw a ghost during the day.
The Taoist Priest of Nanyang stabs at him forcibly and says with a smile, “Why not?”
“You guys have hidden your identities so well. Ouch...”
With a scream, Old Star-Lord has been pressed down on the ground by the Lummox. The Taoist Priest of Nanyang points at his neck with his sword, signals for the Lummox to get up, and then says, “Old Star-Lord, if you don’t want to die, kneel down and apologize.”
Old Star-Lord is no longer as high and mighty as he was just now. His aged face turns black and twisted. Seeing that he is about to lose his life, he doesn’t have time to care about his image. Then he crawls on the ground and immediately compromises, “Fine. I’ll kneel down and apologize.”
“Come here.” The Taoist Priest of Nanyang brings Old Star-Lord to the front of Li Yong and shouts again, “Kneel down.”
But Old Star-Lord hesitates for a moment and discreetly asks, “Young man, no, Host, if I kneel down and apologize to you, will you really let me go?”
Li Yong holds up Shi Ying and points at Old Star-Lord as he says angrily, “If you don’t leave, could it be that you want me to feed you? D*mn old man! I don’t feel comfortable about bringing you home.”
Old Star-lord is flabbergasted, thinking that it is really hard for him to get the point of the young people’s words nowadays. However, he comes to his senses quickly and roughly understands what Li Yong means, knowing that Li Yong doesn’t want to feed him and dislikes his lust for girls.
“It’s just an apology.” Old Star-Lord thinks. Then he immediately kneels down as he says sincerely, “I’m sorry.”
Li Yong nods in satisfaction and stares at Lyu Chun and Hongyu, “Do you want to forgive this bad old man?”
Hongyu says softly, “All at your command, Yong.”
Lyu Chun, however, rushes forward and says defiantly, “If we let him go like this, we will let him off lightly. Let him make a kowtow and call me aunties three consecutive times.”
As soon as Li Yong hears this, he thinks that what Lyu Chun has said is so reasonable. And he immediately instructs Old Star-Lord, “Did you hear that? D*mn old man? Make a kowtow and call her aunties three consecutive times.”
Old Star-Lord has a bitter face. Kneeling down is where his limit lies. And he is absolutely unwilling to make a kowtow to a girl, let alone call her aunties. Old Star-Lord, who can’t act so humbly, says angrily, “A good man would rather die than give in. You might as well kill me if you humiliate me like this.”
Li Yong faintly says, “Since you want to die, then we will just kill you!”
Seeing that the Lummox is walking over with a half-broken blade indignantly and it looks like that he will break his head off in the next second, Old Star-Lord has a paler look on his face. And he frightenedly says, “Hold on. Host, I’ll tell you a great secret. After that, you should let me go, okay?”
Li Yong asks cheerfully, “What is it?” It seems that everyone is afraid of death and the older they get, the more they fear it. Li Yong was just scaring Old Star-Lord just now. But he never expects to scare a big secret out of him.
“Someone is spreading the rumor in the martial circle that your master, Lin Tao, has lost his power. And they want to gather all the masters to besiege and kill you and snatch Shi Ying Dagger away from you. If you let me go, I’ll tell you who is behind the scene.”
“It’s not a rumor. Nor is it a secret,” Li Yong instantly stops being curious and says indifferently, “Since my master has become younger, it’s true that his power isn’t as good as it used to be. However, it’s not that easy to get us killed. They are even less likely to snatch Shi Ying away from us. You’d better suffer death!”
“Just cut off this old b*stard’s head with my broken blade.” The Lummox raises his half-broken blade.
Old Star-Lord is terrified. He never expects that young people nowadays will be so cruel as to kill others randomly. He doesn’t want to die and hurriedly prays in fear, “No, no, don’t kill me. Host, I was just joking. Don’t take it seriously. With my life at risk, making a kowtow is nothing to me at all. I will do as you say, okay?”
Saying that, Old Star-Lord immediately kneels down and makes a kowtow as he shouts, “Auntie.”
He looks truly comical, who doesn’t look like a noble master at all. Instead, he is completely an old man who is out of his mind.
Lyu Chun is so proud of herself that she laughs incessantly. Hongyu and Du Duoduo, however, are expressionless and just watch on the side quietly.
At that moment, police sirens ring in the distance, indicating that the policemen are rushing over.
Old Star-Lord kowtows and calls Lyu Chun aunties three consecutive times and climbs up. Then he pats the dust and grass stalks on top of his star robe. Seeing that Li Yong and his group don’t intend to run away, he finds it embarrassing to run away first.
“Host, the policemen are coming. It’s not good to be seen by the police. Although these policemen can’t do anything to us, there are Huaxia Guardians in Huaxia, who are all great experts. It’s not good to be targeted by them. Let’s just get out of here!” Old Star-Lord advises in a pleasing manner, showing that he is saying so for everyone’s sake.
Li Yong is curious about the Huaxia Guardians. When he asked Wang Yunyun last time, he didn’t get anything at all. At this time, he is once again curious as he asks, “What is a Huaxia Guardian for?”
“How come you don’t even know about that? Young man, you’re so ignorant and ill-informed!” Old Star-Lord exclaims and still puts on a high and mighty appearance. As he is about to lecture Li Yong, the Taoist Priest of Nanyang points at his neck with his sword.
He is immediately shocked and dares not make any sound.
“Speak politely,” The Lummox kicks Old Star-Lord and warns him.
Old Star-Lord immediately changes his look and says fawningly, “Host, the Huaxia Guardians are mainly made up of the people from Four Great Ancient Martial Families, including the Wang Family, the Li Family, the Tusun Family, and the Sima Family. The four great families of the capital are their descendants. And after a new regime was set up, they made some sort of agreement with the new government, promising that they would help control the underground world and stop the martial masters like us from messing around. So they established the Huaxia Guardian Association, which is the strongest underground force in Huaxia. With many experts joining in, it is quite prestigious in the world as well.”
Seeing that Old Star-Lord doesn’t go on with his talking, the Taoist Priest of Nanyang nudges him on the shoulder with his long sword, “Go ahead.”
Feeling that he is being treated disdainfully, Old Star-Lord snorts, “You also know about these things. Why don’t you tell him?”
“Do as the Host says obediently.” The Lummox, a violent maniac, kicks Old Star-Lord again and almost makes him lie flat on the ground, making Old Star-Lord can’t care about his self-respect.
Old Star-Lord has no choice but to continue, “This organization not only manages the underground forces of Huaxia but also serves the Huaxia government. A lot of things are going on there, which I can’t illustrate in detail. Anyway, they serve the country. And the country will not treat them badly. As you can see, the Wang Family, the Li Family, the Tusun Family, and the Sima Family of the capital, are all super big families. As long as they don’t screw themselves, no one can screw them.”
At this point, Old Star-Lord shows a smug look again and strokes his beard as he smiles, “Honestly, I used to be a member of the organization and enjoyed the sub-divisional treatment. However, I was not free there and had to obey the order. I should be at their services at all times regardless of the time and the weather. It was too d*mn torturous. I got angry and then quit.”
Taoist Priest of Nanyang laughs out loud and asks, “Old Star-Lord, did you quit because it was not free inside? Obviously, it was because you molested the wife of the former President and got fired straight away, wasn’t it?”
“Stinky Priest, you’re talking nonsense.” Old Star-Lord gets angry with a red face.
Taoist Priest of Nanyang curses, “Old b*stard. How come you did it and dared not admit it? I despise you.”
Old Star-Lord grits his teeth and asks, “How did you know that?”
“Everyone in the world knows.” Taoist Priest of Nanyang snorts coldly.
Hearing this, Old Star-Lord feels that he’d rather die. Although he has done many such things, many of them haven’t been spread out. If the matter of his molesting the President’s wife is disclosed, he will be hunted down and may get murdered.
Back then, when the Captain fired him, he was repeatedly warned that he shouldn’t talk nonsense outside. Nor could he ruin the reputation of the President’s family. If words got out, the Captain would ask the Huaxia Guardians to hunt him down and kill him.
The thought of those terrifyingly powerful Huaxia Guardians makes Old Star-Lord feel that he will be doomed soon.
At that moment, the police car is parked on the road next to the woods. And a policeman with a dog is searching over towards the woods.
“Yong, the police are here. Let’s go back!” Lyu Chun, Hongyu, and Du Duoduo are all a little worried.
Li Yong asks Taoist Priest of Nanyang, “Have those bodies been disposed of yet?”
Taoist Priest of Nanyang replies, “Don’t worry, Host. They are all well taken care of with no traces being left behind.”
The Lummox smiles foolishly, “These idiot cops surely can’t find anything.”
“Good. Then let’s say goodbye. Don’t forget to help me find out who’s the one issuing a mission and trying to kill me,” Li Yong commands them and leaves with Lyu Chun, Hongyu, and Du Duoduo.
Seeing that Li Yong has walked away, the Taoist Priest of Nanyang puts away his long sword. And the Lummox withdraws his half-broken sword. They look at Old Star-Lord and are about to leave dashingly with a snort. Then Old Star-Lord stops them.
“Taoist Priest of Nanyang, Lummox, please stay.” Old Star-Lord is very polite at this point.
Taoist Priest of Nanyang frowns and asks, “Do you want to be beaten up?”
“No, no, I want to join Nanshan School. Can you two introduce me?”
Old Star-Lord is a smart man. The matter of his molesting the former President’s wife has been spread. And although the words don’t come from him, the Captain, who means what he says, surely will think that he has spread it.
He won’t be foolish and just sit and wait until the Huaxia Guardians come to kill him. He has to join a powerful organization so that he can take advantage of the organization’s power to fight with the Huaxia Guardians. As long as he has an organization to bail him out, he will be fine.
And Nanshan School surely is an old enemy of the Huaxia Guardians.
Back then, Lin Tao, who was the Host of Nanshan School, was unwilling to succumb to the Huaxia Guardians. Nor was he willing to hand over Shi Ying and Dragon Jade to the government. So the Huaxia Guardians besieged Nanshan School and burned it down, which caused the disciples of Nanshan School to scatter all over the world.
Old Star-Lord believes that as long as he joins Nanshan School, the Huaxia Guardians will dare not do anything to him.
“Shameless scums like you aren’t wanted at Nanshan School. So you should just join a killer organization! You should join whatever organization you have a grudge against. Then, just wait. The Huaxia Guardians will come to kill you all and get rid of you one day.” Taoist Priest of Nanyang sneers, scowls, and leaves with the Lummox.
Old Star-Lord is so angry that he blows his beard, opens his eyes wide, and is eager to fight with the Taoist Priest of Nanyang. But a barking startles him. And he hurriedly leaves so as not to be discovered by the police who are coming near.
