Martial Boss Chapter 420

On the ninth day of the fourth month, Si Haofeng, who had been investigating with Ouyang Yan and the others for a few days, returned to Feng Chaonan’s mansion.

In these few days, the harvest of their group could be said to be approximately equal to nothing.

Although they had the Shanhe Academy behind them, no one dared to interfere with them, but the soft nails they encountered were definitely many.

The imperial palace is an important place, with all kinds of taboos, even if Zhuge Longxu was there, it would be difficult to search it thoroughly. After all, there are 3,000 beauties in the harem, all of whom are very different from the men.

If Ouyang Yan and the others searched the harem to the bottom, the Confucian Sect’s reputation would be gone.

Not to mention that Feng Mingxiao’s disappearance was news that had to be kept under wraps. With the emperor in a coma, the loss of Feng Mingxiao would have caused a major upheaval in the Northern Zhou dynasty.

However, this also made Ouyang Yan and the others sure of the fact that Feng Tianming had awakened. If not for the orders of the Northern Zhou Emperor behind the scenes, those people would not have dared to give Ouyang Yan and the others a soft nail.

”This His Majesty, he doesn’t know what he’s doing?” Si Haofeng thought about the investigation over the past few days and had an uncontrollable tiredness in his heart.

The head of the Northern Zhou was fooling around despite his own family business, and the few of them, Si Haofeng, wanted to help stabilise the situation but were still secretly tripped up by the emperor, this magical operation really made Si Haofeng a bit confused.

In the end, Si Haofeng decided to go back to his house and inquire from Feng Chaonan, his nephew, if he knew any information.

But ——

This nephew is not an easy character to deal with either!

Si Haofeng sighed once again.

Two days ago, at the court meeting, the supervising prince, Feng Jiu, officially a*sumed the throne and began to really involve in the dynasty’s politics, taking back the power that had been ceded to Feng Chaonan.

At that time, Feng Chaonan’s face was calm at the court meeting, and he did not show any signs of anger.

This calm situation, however, caused a group of courtiers and imperial princes who knew Feng Chaonan’s nature to mutter secretly, “It seems that the a*sa*sination of an imperial son is about to take place again.”

It is true that, in the opinion of others, Feng Chaonan will never give up and will probably try to play the trick of a*sa*sination in the dark. After all, this Sixth Prince had never been a man with a big heart.

So Si Haofeng returned this time, not only for the previous disappearance of Feng Mingxiao, but also to persuade Feng Chaonan not to carry out the a*sa*sination again.

After Feng Mingxiao’s disappearance, the Northern Zhou could not afford to go through any more turmoil.

Si Haofeng entered the house and met Feng Chaonan in the main hall.

He seemed to be discussing something with two people.

”This person ——” Upon seeing one of them, Si Haofeng’s brow involuntarily furrowed.

This man looked to be at the age of his life, his beard and hair were white, but he was a crane-haired boy, and the rosy glow on his cheeks revealed his still very vigorous physical condition.

The man’s appearance alone makes him look like an immortal, with a drifting elegance, but Si Haofeng, who knows him, knows his true nature underneath the good skin.

The ‘Southern River Fisherman’ Lin Huai Gou, the oldest martial artist on the human list, ranked sixth.

In the eyes of many uninformed people, Lin Huai Gou, as a casual practitioner of the Jianghu Lake, was ranked sixth among all Divine Origin realm martial artists in the world at the age of seventy-eight, and was a representative of the old and the strong.

The ranking of the top of the human ranking is very popular, as the waves after the Yangtze River push the waves before them, and one after another, Lin Huai Gou still steadily occupies his ranking, and is regarded as an idol by many casual practitioners.

However, those who have come into contact with him, especially those who have become famous at a young age, know that this seemingly immortal old man, Lin Huai Gou, is an old man who relies on his old age to sell himself, and specialises in stepping on young people as his capital to make the list.

Every year, we hear of someone who has been defeated by this ‘Southern River Fisherman’, or of a junior who has misbehaved and been taught a lesson by Lin Huai Gou.

Behind all these so-called news circulating in the jianghu, this old man, Lin Huai Gou, is pushing for momentum, all for the sake of still being on the next edition of the People’s List.

But if you walk too much at night, you will eventually meet a ghost.

Last month, I heard that this old man, Lin Huai Gou, met the Demon Prince in Shuzhou and habitually tried to play the old-timer’s role by stepping on him.

Although this Lin Huai Gou was a bit of a reputation tout, he still had real skills. The Devil Prince, who had only broken through to the Divine Origin realm a year ago, was careless and gave Lin Huai Gou an advantage, becoming a stepping stone to his fame.

This time, Lin Huai Gou’s fame was so great that the story was not widely spread in Northern Zhou due to the long distance, but in Da Qian, Lin Huai Gou’s story of teaching the Demon Prince a lesson was widely spread.

This stomp by Lin Huai Gou was more useful than stomping on ten Divine Origin Realms. It was foreseeable that just because of this reputation, Lin Huai Gou would still be on the top of the list in the new edition of the People’s List.

Well ——

If he could survive the chase of the infuriated Demon Prince.

I heard that for this matter, there are True Dan realm experts chasing after Lin Huai Gou’s whereabouts.

From the current situation, it seems that Lin Huai Gou was able to stomp on people for decades but still live peacefully until he was seventy-eight years old, he had a great skill, he survived and ran to Northern Zhou for refuge without missing an arm or a leg.

As for the other man, he was slightly dark-skinned, looked no more than thirty years old, and had a faintly sharp blade aura on his body, also an expert of the Divine Origin realm.

He was also an extraordinary swordsman.

But this blade aura was somewhat unfamiliar, Si Haofeng had travelled the world for fifteen years and had never seen a blade aura similar to this man’s path.

“Uncle, you’re here.” Feng Chaonan saw Si Haofeng and said.

“Chaonan, this is ——”

“These two, are the new guests in my house, and this one, is the famous ‘Southern River Fishing Old Man’ Lin Huai Gou Lin senior.” Feng Chaonan reached out his hand and introduced himself.

Seeing Feng Chaonan introduce himself, Lin Huai Gou raised his head high in a senior manner.

”I don’t know where he got the confidence to put up a pose in front of me, the second in the human list.” Si Haofeng quietly rolled his eyes, rarely caring about the false name that he didn’t really value in the past.

He ignored Lin Huai Gou and turned his gaze to the unfamiliar swordsman, “This one is ——”

“I am Ping Er, meet senior Si.” The unfamiliar swordsman arched his hand and said.

“Uncle, three days ago, Ping Er saber defeated Kuang Yuan of the Sword Dao Palace, the ninth on the human list, a peerless saber player.” Feng Chaonan introduced.

“To defeat the Sword Dao Palace Kuang Yuan, it seems that Brother Ping Er’s strength is extraordinary.” Si Haofeng said as his eyes lit up.

Unlike Ouyang Yan and the others who were studying within the Mountain River Academy, Si Haofeng had travelled the world for many years and had developed a martial heart, and was extremely interested in those masters.

“In front of senior Si, I dare not claim to be different.” Ping Er said extremely modestly.

This attitude was in stark contrast to Lin Huai Gou, who had his nose to the sky at the side, and one could not help but compare the two of them to each other.

“Hmph!” Lin Huai Gou’s face suddenly turned black and he flung his sleeves away.

Obviously, he was also the one making the comparison.
