I'm afraid of pain, so I put all my defense into it.

At the same time, in the lobby of the Xia family.

Several family heads gathered together, and they had a lot of questions to ask.

"Master Xia, why did you stop us just now? Just a few evil cultivators, it's not worth it, right?" The head of the Wang family frowned.

"Yes, even if the evil cultivator outside the city protects Tang Nengyipin, Guyue City is our territory after all, can he still take it away?" The others also agreed.

"I think you have really lost your mind in cultivation. Don't you think the old man in the bathhouse looks familiar?"

Xia Jiuquan pointed to the huge portrait on the wall behind him: "Take a closer look. Don't you think he looks familiar?"

"This..."

"Master Xia wants to say..."

"Old Man Tianwu?"

"How is this possible? Old Man Tianwu disappeared thirty years ago. Besides, how could such a great man come to a small place like Guyue City?"

Seeing the portrait on the wall, combined with Xia Jiuquan's words, several people instantly broke out in cold sweat.

They all knew the huge portrait on the wall, or rather, every one of their families had this portrait hanging on the wall. The person in this portrait had risen to the level of spiritual belief in the Northern Territory. Any famous family would definitely hang a portrait of Old Man Tianwu to pray for peace.

How could such a great master appear in a small Guyue City?

"This is impossible. Elder Tianwu is a being that can ascend to heaven. How could he come to such a remote place as ours?"

"Master Xia, you should be too suspicious. There are too many people who look alike in the world."

The family heads don't believe such things.

Xia Jiuquan frowned. He saw it clearly just now. The old man in the bathhouse was exactly the same as the one in the portrait. He worshipped Elder Tianwu every day. It was impossible for him to be wrong.

"Xia is not saying that he is the old man Tianwu back then. Maybe he is his descendant, or maybe he is related by blood. After all, apart from the hair and beard, he looks too much like the old man Tianwu in the portrait."

"Anyway, I will report it to the ancestors of the clan immediately. Whether it is true or not, I will let them know."

...

"Of course I will go."

"What geniuses are there at this party?"

Li Xiaobai agreed without thinking. The gathering of geniuses in the city was a typical large-scale pretentious face-slapping scene.

How could Li Xiaobai be missing in such an occasion?

He was only 20,000 attribute points away from the defense upgrade, so he had to seize every opportunity to improve his defense.

"Speaking of geniuses, apart from some family disciples in the city, the second son of the Xia family, Xia Jian, and the eldest daughter of the Wang family, Wang Ruoxian."

"This Xia Jian is the most talented in the Xia family. He was sent to Zhenyuan Country to practice since he was a child. Recently, I heard that he would come back and go to the Holy Demon Sect with us to study."

"And Wang Ruoxian, it is said that she had been practicing in the Hinayana Sect before, and her cultivation was far ahead of the cultivators of the same level. This time, she is also preparing to go to the Holy Demon Sect to study."

Li Ya explained, with awe and envy in her words.

These two are the most outstanding two people in Guyue City. Their cultivation is definitely at the high level of the Golden Core Stage. It is possible that they have already touched the threshold of the Nascent Soul Stage.

Xia Jian, mean?

Why are the names of the Xia family so strange?

Li Xiaobai was speechless, but he was looking forward to the party. He had met both Zhenyuan Kingdom and Xiaocheng Sect, but he didn't know if there were people from Zhenyuan Kingdom among those he had tricked in the Divine Beast Mountain Range.

"Also, there is one more thing."

Li Ya secretly glanced at the old beggar and took Li Xiaobai out of the door, looking a little hesitant.

"Does Boss Ye know the old beggar?"

"Yes, doesn't he come here every day?" Li Xiaobai said.

"That's not what I meant. Boss Ye is quite capable and has traveled a lot. Don't you think this old beggar looks like someone?"

"Who does he look like?"

Li Xiaobai was refreshed. He had long suspected that the old beggar was a master.

"Old Tianwu from more than a hundred years ago!"

"I've long felt that he looked familiar. Before, he was disheveled and I didn't think anything of it. Now that he's clean, the more I look at him, the more he looks like him. In the Northern Territory, almost every family of a large clan hangs a portrait of Old Tianwu. Boss Ye must have invited a great god to come."

A hundred years ago, the Tianwu Sect in the Northern Territory had a rare genius who called himself Crazy Wu. He fought from the Northern Territory to the Western Desert, from the Western Desert to the East China Sea, and from the East China Sea to the Central Plains. On the Fairyland, this person dominated an era. For more than ten years, no one in the young generation could be his opponent.

He was a peerless genius, but he disappeared for a long time. Some said that he was seeking a breakthrough in seclusion, and some said that he was wiped out by a powerful person. There were many different opinions.Until thirty years ago, a treasure appeared in Zhongzhou. Experts from all sides gathered and fought. The martial arts madman who had been addicted to martial arts for nearly seventy years suddenly appeared, defeated all the heroes, and seized the treasure. After that, he completely disappeared from people's sight.

No one knows his whereabouts anymore.

Li Xiaobai was surprised. The old beggar actually had such a background. Tianwu old man? Suppressed the young masters of the entire continent?

Looking up, the old beggar was holding his toes with one hand and digging his nose with the other hand, smiling foolishly.

Why does it feel so unreliable?

Can this thing be the top strong man on the continent?

"I don't think so. I admit that this old beggar has some abilities, but to say that he is a master who can sweep across the continent is too exaggerated. This unfortunate thing looks like an idiot. How can he be a powerful person who can split mountains and fill the sea?"

"You can't judge a person by his appearance. They do look too similar. Anyway, pay more attention to him in the future. If it is true, I will get some advice from him. My cultivation will definitely increase dramatically."

Li Ya was a little excited and wanted to kneel down and lick his hands immediately.

Li Xiaobai shrugged. It didn't matter. He didn't need any advice, let alone practice.

If there was only one thing he needed advice on, it was how to act more naturally and smoothly, and how to be beaten by masters from all walks of life.

Besides that, it was all nonsense.

"Wang, in fact, there is a hidden top master in this bathhouse!"

Er Gouzi came out from nowhere and said mysteriously.

"Oh, may I ask the name of this master?"

Li Ya asked. He knew that Er Gouzi was extraordinary and could speak human language. He was definitely a demon beast with bloodline. His future achievements were limitless.

"Woof, it was your Nicholas Er Gouzi. Er Gouzi punched the tiger in the west mountain and kicked the dragon in the four seas. He was the supreme master. No one could defeat him in the world. If you follow Er Gouzi in the future, I guarantee you will rise to the top!"

Li Xiaobai's forehead was full of black lines: "Before you say this, wipe the drool from the corner of your mouth first."
