Li Tong looked at Gong Qing's eyes and couldn't help but waver. He took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I promise you. I will help you uncover the truth, but you must promise not to do anything crazy again."

Gong Qing nodded, a satisfied smile on his face. He stood up and prepared to leave the cell. However, just as he was about to step out of the door, a figure suddenly appeared at the door, blocking his way.

"Gong Qing, do you think you can leave so easily?" Rong Shan said coldly.

Gong Qing looked at Rong Shan, a hint of provocation flashed in his eyes: "Oh? Do you think you can stop me?"

"Gong Qing, how dare you betray your master!" Rong Shan roared, his voice echoing in the night sky, sounding extremely majestic.

Gong Qing rolled over several times after being kicked, and got up in a panic. He looked at Rong Shan, his eyes full of fear: "Brother Rong, I... I didn't betray my master, I just..."

"Shut up!" Rong Shan interrupted him. He noticed that Gong Qing had no cultivation base to protect him, and he couldn't help but wonder, "Where is your cultivation base? How did you escape from Li Tong?"

Gong Qing's face turned pale. He knew he couldn't explain clearly, so he could only look at Li Tong in the distance for help. However, Li Tong seemed not to see his eyes and continued to move forward without any intention of stopping.

Li Tong felt disgusted by Gong Qing's cunning and selfishness. He felt that he was much kinder than Gong Qing.

He had no intention of saving Gong Qing, but instead wanted to see what would happen to this guy who betrayed his master.

Instead of going to the front battlefield, he went straight to Tian Jinzhong's residence. When he opened the door, he saw Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao guarding Tian Jinzhong's bed, while Lu Liang was taking care of him.

"Li Tong, what's going on outside?" Tian Jinzhong asked weakly.

"It's okay, Master. It's just some small things. The old master will take care of them." Li Tong comforted, his voice gentle but firm.

Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao looked at each other and saw confusion in each other's eyes. They didn't understand why Li Tong came here at this time, nor did they understand what the "little thing" he was talking about was.

However, they did not ask much, but just stayed by Tian Jinzhong's side silently. They knew that no matter what happened, they would protect Tian Jinzhong's safety.

Li Tong looked at Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao, and a warm feeling surged in his heart. He knew that these two young people were trustworthy partners. He walked up to them and whispered, "You two stay here. If there is any situation, contact me in time."

"Li Tong, Quan Xing's people are here again." Zhang Chulan ran over hurriedly with a hint of worry on his face.

Li Tong nodded without saying anything more. He turned to look at Zhang Chulan, with a hint of determination in his eyes: "Chulan, you stay here, I'll go to the front to take a look."

After saying that, Li Tong strode away, leaving Zhang Chulan alone, looking at his back with complicated eyes.

Gong Qing was carried by Rong Shan and stood at the door of Tian Jinzhong's house. His face was pale and there was blood on the corner of his mouth. He tried to say something, but his words were unclear and he could only make a faint groan.

Rong Shan looked at Tian Jinzhong, his eyes full of concern: "Mr. Tian, ​​are you okay?"

Tian Jinzhong shook his head, indicating that he was fine. The last incident still frightened him, but at this moment he was more concerned about the situation on the battlefield.

When Li Tong and Rong Shan arrived at the battlefield, they were devastated by the scene before them. The Longhu Mountain disciples were beaten back by Quan Xing's men, and even Zhang Lingyu was seriously injured and fell to the ground.

Rong Shan saw this and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes. He handed Gong Qing to Li Tong and rushed into the battlefield to fight with Quan Xing's men.

Li Tong stood aside, his eyes swept across the battlefield coldly. He saw Jin Feng, Xia Liuqing, Tu Junfang and others, all of whom were his acquaintances, but now they had become his enemies.

Suddenly, his eyes fell on Ding Shiman in the distance. Ding Shiman stood there quietly, without taking any action, just looking at the battlefield coldly. Li Tong couldn't help but feel puzzled. What was Ding Shiman's purpose in going to Longhu Mountain this time?
The disciples of Longhu Mountain were already somewhat exhausted, while the people of Quanxing became more and more courageous. Although Rongshan was brave, he could not withstand the opponent's large numbers.

Tu Junfang stood aside, looking at the battlefield with a sneer. He held a talisman in his hand, ready to release the three corpses to control the disciples of Longhu Mountain.

At this moment, a bolt of lightning fell from the sky and shattered the talisman in Tu Junfang's hand. Li Tong stood in mid-air and looked at Tu Junfang coldly: "Tu Junfang, what do you want to do?"

Tu Junfang's face changed, and he looked at Li Tong with a hint of fear in his eyes. He knew Li Tong's strength, and he also knew that he was not easy to deal with.

"I just want to control them." Tu Junfang tried to explain.

"Control them? Have you asked for their opinions?" Li Tong sneered, "I promised the old master that I would help take care of the disciples of Mount Longhu. Don't even think about hurting them!"

"Everyone, why do we have to resort to violence today?" Li Tong said in a steady voice, trying to calm the dispute. "I, Li Tong, do not want to be an enemy of you. Please give me some face and stop."

When everyone in Quanxing heard this, although they still had unruly smiles on their faces, they slowly put down their weapons. They knew that Li Tong was also a big shot in the martial arts world and was not so easy to mess with.

However, at this moment, a figure walked out from the crowd of Quan Xing. It was their acting leader, Gong Qing. With a sly smile on his face, he looked at Li Tong and said, "Li Tong, do you think you can make us stop like this? You are too naive."

Li Tong frowned, but he was not angry. He turned to look at Gong Qing and said calmly: "Gong Qing, what do you want? Do you really want to be an enemy of Longhu Mountain?"

Gong Qing laughed and said, "An enemy? So what? We act according to our nature, why should we explain to others?"

Li Tong's heart sank when he heard this. He knew that reasoning with Quan Xing and his group would not work. So he changed his approach and said, "Gong Qing, if you have any purpose, you might as well tell me directly. As long as it's not excessive, I might consider letting you go."

Gong Qing's eyes flashed with a gleam of light. He looked at Li Tong, then at the people around him, and then said, "My goal has been achieved. As for whether you will let us go, it depends on whether you have the ability to do so."

Li Tong frowned, he felt that there seemed to be something hidden in Gong Qing's words. But he also knew that this was not the time to delve into it. So, he took a deep breath and said, "Okay, since you said so, then I will give you a chance. As long as you leave Longhu Mountain now, I will pretend that what happened today never happened."

Gong Qing heard this and sneered. He looked at Li Tong, then at the people around him, and said, "Leave? Why should we leave? This is our goal."

"Master, do you really want to go?" Zhang Lingyu stood aside, looking at the old master worriedly.

"Well, some things have to be faced." The old Taoist said lightly and walked out of the room.

The people of Quanxing had already laid a trap at the foot of the mountain, waiting for the old master to fall into it. However, when the old master appeared in their sight, they were all stunned. The majesty and momentum made them step back involuntarily.

Li Tong stood at the gate of the Tianshi Mansion, looking at the old Tianshi in the distance, with a smile on his face. He turned to the disciples behind him and said, "Go, give meals to those who haven't eaten yet, don't let them go hungry." Seeing this, the people in Quanxing looked at each other, not knowing what to do. They thought the Tianshi Mansion would be in chaos, but they didn't expect Li Tong to be so calm.

At this moment, a member of the Shamatte group could not hold back and quietly went around behind Li Tong, preparing to launch a sneak attack. However, his movements were easily detected by Li Tong. Li Tong turned around and grabbed the man's wrist, twisting it slightly, and the man screamed in pain.

"Hmph, you overestimate your abilities." Li Tong sneered and threw the man aside.

Seeing this, everyone in Quanxing dared not act rashly. They knew that Li Tong was no ordinary person.

The old Taoist priest walked to the gate of the Taoist Temple, looked at Li Tong, and nodded: "You did a good job."

Li Tong smiled slightly: "Master, you are too kind. I am just doing my duty."

"Master, you're back!" Zhang Lingyu came forward with a happy smile on his face.

The old Taoist nodded and asked, "Did anything happen during the time I was away?"

"No, everything is done according to your instructions." Zhang Lingyu replied.

The old Taoist nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Li Tong and asked, "When do you think I can come back?"

Li Tong thought for a moment and said, "It should be soon. Master, don't worry. I'll be here to guard it."

The old Taoist nodded and turned to leave. He knew that with Li Tong there, the Taoist temple would be safe.

Li Tong sat in the rocking chair, his eyelids almost drooping. He knew that all the people in Quanxing were waiting, waiting for the old master to come. Ding Shiman closed his eyes to rest, he was also waiting, waiting for the legendary man.

Finally, the old Taoist priest appeared. He was dressed in a white robe and looked like a fairy, as if he had walked out of a painting. Ding Shimaan opened his eyes and walked towards him, his eyes flashing with determination.

"Old Master, I, Ding Shimaan, want to fight with you." His voice was not loud, but full of power.

The old Taoist priest looked at him, his eyebrows slightly raised: "Oh? You are Ding Shiman? You are from Quan Xing, and you dare to challenge me?"

Ding Shimaan smiled slightly: "People with a complete nature also have a heart to seek the truth. I know I am not your opponent, but I want to see how big the gap between you and me is."

The old Taoist nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you. But you have to remember that you cannot hurt the people of Longhu Mountain at will."

Ding Shimaan saluted and said, "Although I am a Quan Xing person, I also know the rules of the martial arts world. Today's battle will only determine the winner, and no lives will be lost."

As soon as the words fell, everyone in Quanxing cheered. They looked at Ding Shian, their eyes full of expectation. The old Taoist priest stood there quietly, like a mountain, calm and firm.

Ding Shiman took a deep breath, moved his body, and attacked the old Taoist priest. His punches were fierce and powerful, and each punch seemed to carry the sound of wind and thunder. But the old Taoist priest just stood there, motionless.

"Bang!" Ding Shimaan's punch hit the old Taoist priest heavily on the chest, but the old Taoist priest seemed to be fine, and even his clothes were not wrinkled.

Ding Shiman was shocked. He knew that the gap between him and the old master was much greater than he had imagined. But he did not give up and continued to attack the old master.

The old Taoist priest looked at him with a hint of admiration in his eyes: "Not bad, you have courage. But courage cannot make up for the gap in strength."

As he spoke, the old Taoist priest suddenly moved. His movements were so fast that it was dazzling. Ding Shiman only felt a huge force coming at him, and the whole person flew out.

"Bang!" He fell heavily to the ground, with a trace of blood flowing from the corner of his mouth. But he did not cry out in pain, but struggled to stand up, looking at the old Taoist priest with eyes full of awe and admiration.

"Hmph, young man, you are too impulsive." The old Taoist said indifferently.

Ding Shiman didn't say anything, but just increased his strength. But the old Taoist priest was like a mountain, motionless.

Ding Shimaan was shocked, knowing that he had met a true master. But he did not give up, but closed his eyes and began to use his inner cultivation method "observation".

A fog seemed to appear in front of his eyes, but in this fog, he saw the powerful aura emanating from the old Taoist priest. That aura was like a chasm in the sky, deep and bottomless.

Ding Shian took a deep breath and opened his "viewing" to the extreme. He felt as if he had merged into this atmosphere, intertwining with the old Taoist's aura.

At this moment, the old Taoist priest suddenly moved. He stopped talking to Ding Daoan and directly increased the power of the Golden Light Mantra to a dazzling level. The golden light was like the sun, making it impossible to look directly at it.

Ding Shiman opened his eyes and was shocked when he saw this scene. But he did not retreat, but pushed his escape light to the extreme and faced the attack of the old Taoist priest.

The moment the two fought, the entire mountaintop seemed to tremble. Powerful air waves spread out in all directions, causing people around them to feel palpitations.

Ding Shimaan only felt a strong force coming at him. He tried his best to resist, but was still shocked and took two steps back. He looked up at the old Taoist priest, his eyes full of surprise and admiration.

"So strong!" he couldn't help but admire.

The old Taoist priest looked at him with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He didn't expect that this young man could actually take his attack.

"Yes, you are indeed a genius." said the old Taoist priest.

Ding Shimaan smiled slightly. He knew that his strength was still far from perfect. But he was not discouraged. Instead, he became more determined.

"Thank you for the compliment, I will continue to work hard," he said.

The old Taoist nodded and said nothing more. He knew that this young man had extraordinary potential. As long as he continued to work hard, he would definitely become a powerful person in the future. (End of this chapter)
