Under one person: If I let you refine your Qi, will you become an immortal?!

Chapter 288 How can an immortal have bad popularity? With Hirudo in hand, who should I be afraid of? !
"Senior, what's wrong?"

At this time, Li Muxuan felt a little strange when he saw that the head of the Tang clan was staring at him without saying anything.

Tang Bingwen waved his hand and said, "Nothing, I just feel a little sad."

After saying that, he looked at the junior who knew some basic transporting skills in front of him, "Before, I was wondering if you could handle the revenge of those people from the previous dynasty. Now it seems that they are the ones we should worry about."

"Oh?"

Li Muxuan's eyes were calm.

After dealing with that person, he anticipated that the people from the previous dynasty would not let it go.

After all, he is their master. Although he was ousted long ago, until now, many people still feel that growing flowers cannot be without the emperor, just like the West cannot be without Jerusalem.

In this regard, although Li Muxuan would not take the initiative to cause trouble, they would bring it to him themselves.

That’s another matter.

When Sect Leader Tang said this to him, it was obvious that he had received some news.

At this time, Tang Bingwen said, "Do you remember the First Baturu and Huo Menzhang? After the former had his arm cut off by you, he took a group of people to the grassland to become a prince and had no involvement in this matter."

"Hey, Mr. Huo."

"He brought people to me, hoping to buy your head."

"Is it?"

Li Muxuan looked calm and composed.

I just felt a little confused. Doesn’t the Tang Sect attach great importance to rules? Why did they sell customer information?

In this regard, Tang Bingwen seemed to understand what Li Muxuan was thinking, and in order to make his position clear, he said: "Since the deal was not done, they are not considered customers."

"Besides, this matter involves the business we discussed before."

"Are they colluding with the Japanese?"

Li Muxuan's eyes turned cold.

"almost."

Tang Bingwen nodded and said, "Now the people from the previous dynasty who are seeking revenge on you are divided into two factions."

"One faction is the Huo family, and the other is the surrender faction; the former are mostly old-school martial arts masters who once worked in the palace and served as guards, but they are unwilling to go along with the Japanese pirates."

“The latter is the one who has the ambition to restore the old order.”

"After that person died, we found his illegitimate child that he had with someone else."

At this point, a hint of mockery flashed in Tang Bingwen's eyes. Although he was a man of the world and had never been involved in the political intrigues of the court, as for the matter of illegitimate children, one could just ask for it. Anyway, nowadays it is not as strict as before.

How many people will take this matter seriously?
"and then?"

Li Muxuan spoke up. He was not concerned about the family affairs of the previous dynasty's royal family.

"Then they got mixed up with the Japanese."

Tang Bingwen said in a deep voice: "We have almost found out everything about your previous commission."

"A total of 21 sects and 131 people were involved, of which only 24 were Japanese. The vast majority of the rest were the ones I just mentioned, cooperating with the Japanese for revenge and restoration of the country."

"Some are pure traitors, working for the Japanese for the sake of wine, sex, money and power."

"These hundreds of people want to kill you right now."

Hearing this, Li Muxuan remained calm and said, "Thank you for telling me, senior."

"You're too polite. I take money from others and help them get rid of their troubles. This is the rule of my Tang Sect." Tang Bingwen put his hands behind his back, and a bit of arrogance appeared between his eyebrows: "Let's not talk about whether this group of people will cause trouble to you directly."

"I have sent my men to keep an eye on them secretly."

"Three months. Just three months."

"I can't say that all of them have been solved, but nine out of ten times they will completely disappear from this world."

"The rest will be watched day and night. Unless our Tang Sect is gone or encounters an accident, the assassination will not stop as long as they are on this land!"

The words fell.

A look of respect appeared on Li Muxuan's face.

It is both a respect for the other party's patriotism and a respect for the other party's professional qualities.

Sure enough, it was about murder.

It’s right to find Tangmen.

At this moment, he noticed the gaze of the younger person in front of him.

Tang Bingwen was very pleased. A faint smile appeared on his wrinkled face. He said confidently, "Just now you said that you needed my Tang Sect to help you with something. What is it?"

"Don't hide it from senior."

Li Muxuan said bluntly: "There were actually some fish that slipped through the net in the battle of Lushun."

“These people did not land at the Port Arthur dock.”

"I suspect they may transfer to Shanghai, after all, their concession is there, and it is the economic lifeline, or they may take different ships and disperse to various coastal cities."

"But no matter which one it is, it is a potential threat to us."

The words fell.

Tang Bingwen frowned immediately. This matter was much more difficult than the previous one.

It’s not that I think the Japanese are difficult to deal with, but it’s too difficult to investigate!

After all, there are so many coastal cities in the country. If the Japanese really want to disperse and hide, with several people in one city, they are scattered all over the country, and there are no clues for them to follow the trail. How much manpower and resources will it take.

Not to mention that almost all the disciples have been sent out now.

There is no manpower at all.

Think of this.

Tang Bingwen hesitated for a moment and then said, "I will send a few people to Shanghai to investigate."

"As for other coastal cities, I will have people go and inquire about them when I have time in three months. But don't hold out too much hope. I hope the Japanese won't make too much noise and settle down to take root in this land."

"There's nothing we can do about them."

"Thank you, senior."

Li Muxuan bowed and thanked him, "To be honest, I have asked four sects to help with the investigation: Longhu Mountain, Shangqing Sect, Baiyun Temple, Wudang, and Putuo Sects. He will inform me as soon as there is any news."

Although these sects are not intelligence organizations, they have a large number of disciples.

Besides, there are four more.

They have considerable influence in both the secular and spiritual worlds.

"."

When Tang Bingwen heard about these sects, the corner of his mouth twitched. Which one of them was weaker than his own?

Knew it.

How can an immortal have bad popularity?

Even if Li Muxuan didn't do it himself, many things would be done for him by others.

For example, home.

Aren’t you just working for Li Muxuan?

Of course, his Tang Sect is different from those sects that curry favor with Li Muxuan for the sake of profit. Their cooperation is based on patriotism and business dealings!
at the same time.

Inside a high-rise building in the Shanghai Concession.

A Japanese non-commissioned officer in a khaki military uniform smiled at the old man with a cane in front of him and said, "Welcome everyone to join the Tongwenhui. Let's serve the Emperor together and work together for the prosperity of East Asia!"

"That's right, sir."

The old man with the crutch nodded with a forced smile.

Behind him stood a group of people dressed in strange shapes, including a young boy in a school uniform with a Japanese sword slung around his waist, a samurai holding a dogtail grass in his mouth, and a woman dressed as a shrine maiden with green pupils.

After hearing the words of the Japanese non-commissioned officer, this group of people showed a bit of disdain in their eyes.

What emperor.

If the ninja leader had not promised to accept them in exchange for military merit, they would not have bothered to pay attention.

The Japanese non-commissioned officers saw everything and although they were unhappy, they did not show it, because after the Battle of Port Arthur, the Japanese island's foreigners suffered heavy losses and now only this group of Bihe Ninjas were useful.

Between thoughts.

The voice of the ninja leader sounded in my ears.

"Sir, there's something I want to know. What's with those meteorites in Lushun?"

Shinobu narrowed his eyes slightly. With such a big thing happening, it would be impossible to conceal it even if the higher-ups wanted to. As a cultivator, he certainly knew that this could not be a coincidence and must be man-made.

That's why.

He had a strong sense of crisis. You know.

Those who took the boat to Lushun were the main force, and he and some small sects were just details.

Even they were wiped out. If this group of people were to rashly engage in a fight with the flower-growing practitioners, they might be the next ones to be killed by a meteorite.

"I'm sorry, this matter is top secret."

The Japanese non-commissioned officer shook his head.

There are actually many different versions of the truth inside the company. After all, most of the people who saw it are dead.

As for the remaining surviving soldiers, since they were not practitioners and had limited vision, they could not provide much useful information at all. So far, they only knew that the huge rock was suspected to have been built by Li Muxuan.

Whether it is relying on the other party's own strength or a group of people working together.

It’s not known yet.

But this matter has alarmed His Majesty and the Prime Minister. They have personally ordered that in order to avoid panic in the country, no information is allowed to be disclosed to the outside world, and no one is allowed to talk about it internally.

Especially for practitioners, they will conceal it if possible, and make up an excuse to confuse the public if not.

The reason for doing this is simple.

If I knew that I was facing an immortal who was suspected to have the ability to move mountains and fill the sea.

How many of these foreigners are willing to work for the Japanese island?

At this time, after hearing the words of the Japanese non-commissioned officer, Shinobu's expression was a little gloomy. This group of nobles and officials wanted people to work for them but they were hiding their intentions.

Do you really think I'm your dog?
do not forget.

We are just collaborating!

Immediately, the ninja said calmly: "Since it is top secret, I will not ask any more questions."

"It's just that we have come from a long distance, so we may not be able to adapt to the local climate. Of course, please rest assured that if there are any arrangements from above, we will do our best to cooperate."

The Japanese non-commissioned officer's eyes suddenly turned cold.

But he smiled and said, "Actually, I know a little about Lushun."

"I got along well with you from the first sight, and we are both loyal to His Majesty, so it's okay to tell you that the meteorite was created by the combined efforts of hundreds of flower-growing practitioners."

"It's just that in the end the fame fell on one person."

"Who?"

"Li Muxuan."

The Japanese non-commissioned officer spoke with a mixture of truth and lies.

When he heard this name, the ninja's eyes suddenly froze. There was nothing he could do, this name appeared too frequently.

At the same time, every matter related to him is not small.

Just thinking about it.

The voice of the Japanese non-commissioned officer interrupted his thoughts.

"You also know that most people only look at the surface of things and don't care about the truth behind them."

"Although the huge rock was not created by Li Muxuan alone, most people only saw him. That's why the higher-ups ordered a blockade of the news."

"After all, if a person who can move mountains and fill the sea with a wave of his hand is exposed to the public."

“There will be a massive panic.”

“By then, it won’t matter whether he built the boulder alone or not.”

After listening, the ninja stared at the Japanese non-commissioned officer, wanting to confirm whether the other party was lying to him, while also thinking about how credible these words were.

Finally, after pondering for a while.

Still choose to believe.

After all, if such a huge rock was really created by human power, Li Muxuan would be too terrifying.

He had to take Bihe Ren and run away overnight.

Then, the ninja smiled and said, "Thank you for telling me, sir. Now I have a better idea."

"I will still rely on the sir to take care of me in the future."

"You are too kind, old lady."

The Japanese officer smiled and said, "If you need any help in the future, just let me know."

"Over the years, we have worked tirelessly and diligently, and under the guise of student travel and visits, we have visited all the flower-growing provinces and regions except the Western Regions."

“It involves geography, industry, commerce, society, economy, politics and many other aspects.”

"I will definitely not hold you back in terms of intelligence."

"Thank you very much."

There was a gleam in the ninja leader's eyes, and he was very confident in these guys' ability to obtain intelligence.

After all, this group of people had already started investigating flower planting more than 40 years ago, and they intensified their efforts after the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. Now, the entire flower planting is more familiar to these intelligence agencies than their own home.

It was just because of Bihe Ren's relationship with the higher-ups that he was worried that something might be hidden.

It seems.

It’s not a bad thing that the old priest and his people died.

At least at this stage, I can only rely on myself, so my salary will naturally improve.

Between thoughts.

The Japanese non-commissioned officer's voice sounded again.

"You are new here and are not familiar with many places yet, so you should stay in the concession for the time being. However, this is a flower-growing territory after all, so don't be too conspicuous to avoid being targeted by flower-growing practitioners."

"These guys love to fight in groups and use dirty tricks. That's how Lord Gongsi got killed."

"Please rest assured, sir."

The ninja agreed without even thinking about it.

The Japanese non-commissioned officer continued: "Once you are familiar with each other, we will arrange for you to protect some important people."

"Who?"

“A flower grower who shares the same ideals as us.”

The Japanese military officer spoke up and said that they had already reached an agreement with the people from the Qing Dynasty. As long as they were willing to give up the interests of the Northeast, they would help them restore their country and protect their personal safety.

"understood."

The ninja smiled faintly when he heard this.

Afterwards, the two didn't talk for long, and the ninja led his men out of the building.

As soon as he got outside, he heard Shobei say, "Teacher Ono, what that guy just said about the Battle of Port Arthur is not credible, at least not completely."

"It's definitely not as simple as he said,"

"Especially Li Muxuan, we should try to avoid him as much as possible."

"Yes, Not Bad."

The ninja was very pleased to hear this.

Then he said, "Li Muxuan is indeed not someone you want to mess with. After all, one or two times might just be a coincidence."

"But it's impossible for it to be so coincidental every time. Moreover, now even the old priest has been defeated by him. Although we can't be sure that he was the only one who did it, even if he was ganged up on, it's enough to show that this man is not simple."

"But, Shobei, do you think there are immortals in this world?"

"This"

There was hesitation on Shobei's face.

I didn't understand why the teacher suddenly asked this, but after hesitating for a while, I shook my head.

Seeing this, the old ninja smiled confidently, "Since there is no immortal, then Li Muxuan is just a stronger person, and as long as he is a human, there is no one who cannot be killed!"

"So there's no need to worry too much about him."

"But when we meet Li Muxuan, we should avoid him if possible. After all, if we face him head-on, our people may not be his match."

"Yes."

Shobei nodded, but he always felt something was strange.

Eita on the other hand didn't care at all.

No match for a head-on collision?

Why should old man boost others' morale and destroy his own prestige? With Hirudowan in hand, who should he be afraid of?

If I have the chance to meet him in the future, I will definitely compete with him!
