The melon-eating swordsman in the ancient dragon world.

Chapter 588 A Big Secret
The lights are bright, reflecting on the water.

The sounds of clinking glasses and singing music were heard constantly.

There were pleasure boats passing by on the Qinhuai River below the Yuehua Tower, and occasionally the sound of "Spring River Moon Night" could be heard, and there were also gorgeously dressed women waving round fans to show their grace.

In Yuehua Tower, there are musicians playing the piano, dancers dancing in their clothes, and singers singing. The five tones of various kinds of music blend together to create a gorgeous and beautiful symphony.

"Brother Zhou, Brother Lian, please!"

Zhao Wuji extended his hand to invite them, then took his seat first and said to Lian Chengbi, "I heard that the Wuque Chivalrous Couple were traveling in the northwest, and I thought I would not have the chance to meet you two this time. Unexpectedly, I was lucky enough to meet you by chance."

Lian Chengbi smiled and said, "I came back from the northwest a long time ago. I had nothing to do while traveling along the way. It was just a coincidence that I came to Jinling. If I had been two days later, I would have missed Master Zhao."

Zhao Wuji laughed loudly and raised his glass to greet him, "This shows that it is God's will that Zhao and Brother Lian get to know each other and become friends."

Lian Chengbi smiled and raised his glass in return, "Brother Zhao, please."

Zhou Zhigang smiled and said, "Brother Zhao is also a famous young man in Hebei. He comes from a family of scholars. It is right for him and Brother Lian to interact with each other, as they are from the south and the north."

Zhao Wuji waved his hand and smiled, "No, no, I dare not. Brother Lian has inherited Wugui Villa for three hundred years, and he himself is a martial arts prodigy. Now his swordsmanship has already reached perfection. How dare Zhao compare with him?"

"Brother Zhao, you are too polite. The innate Wuji true qi and the 9981 Wuji sword techniques are also unique in the martial arts world and are feared in Hebei." Lian Chengbi said with a smile.

"I am honored to be praised by Brother Lian." Zhao Wuji's face was flushed, and he said modestly, "But I still know myself well. I can beat the Heart-breaking Swordsman, but I dare not show off in front of Brother Lian."

Zhou Zhigang also complimented, "Wugui Villa is the number one family in Jiangnan, and Brother Lian's martial arts can also be called the best in Jiangnan. There are not many people in the martial arts world who can be compared with Brother Lian."

Lian Chengbi grabbed Zhou Zhigang and said with a wry smile, "We are friends. It's okay to say it in private, but you can't say it outside."

Zhou Zhigang smiled and said, "This is the truth, not bragging. If anyone dares to object, go kill a person like Sikong Shu first."

Tu Xiaotian is known as the Great Hero of Guandong, the best acupuncturist in the world. His status in the martial arts world of Guandong is one of the best. He is also a first-rate master in the entire martial arts world. However, just killing him is not enough to make people fear him.

Although the one-armed eagle king Sikong Shu kneels as soon as he appears in the original novel, his status in the martial arts world is higher than Tu Xiaotian. There are very few people who are as famous as him, and he did not show any signs of defeat in a brief fight with Xiao Shiyilang.

Therefore, after killing Sikong Shu, especially after he defeated him with three moves and then pierced his throat with a sword, Lian Chengbi became famous and his status in the martial arts world was even higher than before, with a tendency to become the best swordsman in the world.

Zhou Zhigang only said that Lian Chengbi was the best in Jiangnan. In fact, he already knew that Lian Chengbi was a quiet person who didn't like to show off, so he deliberately kept it low-key.

"That's right." Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up and he immediately replied, "Although I have confidence in my Wuji swordsmanship, I am not sure if I can defeat Sikong Shu, let alone that great hero from Guandong."

Zhou Zhigang asked curiously, "Tu Xiaotian?"

"He's in Guandong and I'm in Hebei, not far away, so we've met a few times before." Zhao Wuji nodded and sighed, "But I didn't expect that he would actually join that damn Tianzong."

"Yes, Tianzong. Speaking of Tianzong..." Zhou Zhigang couldn't help but look at Lian Chengbi, "Is Tianzong so powerful? It can even make a figure like Tu Xiaotian willing to be its pawn."

Zhao Wuji smiled and echoed, "Yes, Tu Xiaotian is only one of the thirty-six incense masters of Tianzong. It can be seen that Tianzong is very powerful. Brother Lian, you must be careful!"

Lian Chengbi shook his head speechlessly, thinking that Zhou Zhigang had really been sold out and had to pay people money, which was quite consistent with his character as Lian Chengbi's younger brother in the original novel. But fortunately, he came prepared this time.

So Lian Chengbi smiled and nodded at Zhao Wuji, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Zhao. Tu Xiaotian told me a lot of inside information before he died. I already know something about Tianzong, so I am not afraid of them."

Zhao Wuji's eyes flickered, filled with doubt and uncertainty.

Understand? Not afraid?
He actually had no idea how powerful Tianzong was, but like Tu Xiaotian, he also guessed a few people when he occasionally participated in Tianzong's actions and cooperated with others.

It can be said that these people’s reputation and martial arts are not inferior to his.

What's more, there is a young master with better martial arts skills in Tianzong, as well as a mysterious young master Tian.

So ever since he was threatened to join Tianzong, and then given a slap in the face and a sweet treat, he has been convinced and has deep fear and respect for Tianzong's strength.

With such strength, even if Lian Chengbi only knew the tip of the iceberg, he should be very afraid...

If he heard a few names from Tu Xiaotian, and so on for the 108 masters, how could he not be afraid?
If he didn't hear anything from Tu Xiaotian, then wouldn't the unknown master be more terrifying?

But if he was afraid, shouldn’t he spread the word that he knew nothing, so as to avoid Tianzong coming to him?

Or you can tell those names as soon as possible to ensure your own safety. After all, a secret that is made public is no longer a secret.

Zhao Wuji was very confused.

Is Lian Chengbi pretending? Is he really not afraid or is he just pretending?
If he was really not afraid, then what secrets did he learn from Tu Xiaotian? How many secrets of Tianzong did this old man Tu Xiaotian know?
Lian Chengbi's words made Zhao Wuji, who had something to hide, have countless question marks in his mind.

"Right!" Zhou Zhigang asked curiously, "Brother Lian, you also learned some things about Tianzong from Tu Xiaotian. Did he tell us about other people who also belong to Tianzong?"

Zhao Wuji's eyes lit up, and he immediately replied, "Yes, I heard that Brother Lian got some news about Tianzong from Tu Xiaotian? I wonder if you can tell me. After all, I am in Hebei, and I am very close to Tu Xiaotian."

Lian Chengbi pretended to be mysterious and said, "He not only told me some people from Tianzong, but also told me a big secret."

Zhou Zhigang's gossip fire was burning, "What big secret?"

"Ahem!" But he reacted immediately and said a little embarrassedly, "If it's not convenient to say, Brother Lian, don't tell me."

Lian Chengbi smiled softly and said, "Brother Zhou is not an outsider, and Brother Zhao and I hit it off right away. Although this secret is big, it doesn't matter whether you know it or not."

Zhou Zhigang and Zhao Wuji couldn't help but lean over to listen.

Lian Chengbi said softly, "Tianzong can recruit so many masters because he owns a huge treasure. This treasure is rich enough to rival a country. Not to mention 108 masters, even 10,800 masters can be supported."

"What treasure?"

"Goshu's treasure!"
