My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 627 - 620: Astonishing Secret
Chapter 627: Chapter 620: Astonishing Secret
Upon hearing Li Tianming’s introduction atop Mount Everest, the Song Family Master, Song Tianbao, was very impressed. The Li Family was truly mighty to be able to summon so many experts from outside. Without the capability to manipulate and unite so many experts, the task would indeed be extremely difficult.
To deal with Su Xuan, Li Tianming had truly spared no expense. The appearance fees for those experts he had hired were staggeringly high. Fortunately, the Li Family was well-off, and the experts he had brought this time were comparable to a luxurious all-star team!
Before long, over twenty people streamed in, each with a different appearance, but they all shared one thing in common: they had great vigor, and one could tell from their gait that they were trained individuals.
Song Tianbao was thrilled to see these people whom he had flown in. As long as these experts were here, they would surely capture Su Xuan and force him to reveal the whereabouts of his daughter, Song Shuangshuang. Then, he’d let his daughter marry Li Tianming—his plan was perfect.
Li Tianming, seeing so many experts gathered together, was also quite excited. He himself was a martial arts enthusiast, and he paid close attention to every significant martial arts competition held in Huaxia Country. It could be said that today’s invited experts were top figures from various martial arts sects.
"Haha, welcome, welcome! Your presence is a great honor for me, Li Tianming."
Li Tianming chuckled and went forward to greet them.
The person walking at the front was a middle-aged man dressed in foreign attire, sporting a beard and holding a scepter, his face etched with muscles that clearly had been honed over the years. His skill had already reached the peak.
Li Tianming recognized this man. The arrangement to invite these experts had been made by his family members, and he hadn’t expected that they would actually manage to invite Jing Gangzhi from Tibet! Standing before him, holding the scepter and with a towering figure, was none other than Jing Gangzhi, known by the moniker Golden Wheel Dharma King. Legend had it that he was proficient in dozens of martial arts, including Flower Picking Finger, Dorado leaf finger, Formless Tribulation Finger, Worry Removal Finger, Great Wisdom Indeterminate Finger, Dragon Claw Skill, Dragon Capturing Hand, Alms Bowl Palm, Ruyi Shadow-Following Leg, Sleeve Universe, Silent Annihilation Grasp, Indra catches, Burning Wood Blade Technique, Mahayana Finger, and Prajnaparamita Palm, earning him the title of the king of martial arts in Tibet.
He had been invited multiple times to participate in martial arts competitions in Huaxia Country but had never accepted the invitations. Li Tianming was both surprised and delighted that he had come here. Delighted because with such a master present, Su Xuan surely couldn’t escape, and surprised because he wondered how they had managed to invite a top-tier expert like Jing Gangzhi. He realized he had previously underestimated the Li Family’s strength.
Seeing Li Tianming approaching to greet him, Jing Gangzhi nodded slightly in acknowledgment.
The person following was actually a monk. Li Tianming felt that he looked familiar, as though he had seen him somewhere before, but he just couldn’t recall the name.
That monk said to Li Tianming, "Amitabha, this humble monk’s name is Kong Ren. I have descended from Shaolin Temple to lend you a hand."
Ah!
Suddenly, Li Tianming remembered who he was. This man was Kong Ren, often featured on the Central Television as a martial arts instructor. That’s right, it was him! He had once been the president of the Huaxia Martial Arts Association, with immense influence. He performed Shaolin martial arts so divinely that it was astonishing!
Li Tianming was quite satisfied. Excellent, with such a master helping out, capturing Su Xuan? Heh, it would be like picking something up effortlessly—like crushing an ant to death.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!"
The next person was a bit annoyed that Li Tianming had overlooked everyone else while attending to the front.
Li Tianming looked up and was immediately stunned!
Wasn’t this Yan Feitian, the renowned figure in the Martial World? He was known for using a Flying Sky Sword and had created his own "Divine Sword Technique," defeating countless challengers.
Since Huaxia Country banned guns, these practitioners of rare weapons started emerging, each carrying their own martial skills, and quickly carved a niche for themselves in Huaxia Country, causing martial arts to flourish everywhere.
This was too wonderful for words. The more Li Tianming looked, the more pleased he became. Among the rest, there was even a foreign friend he recognized immediately. There was Kong Ren, the Judo King, and even several famous boxers had been invited.
Li Tianming was incredibly shocked inside; inviting such people to capture a mere Su Xuan was like using a cannon to kill a mosquito—overkill with a hint of resource wastage.
"Li Tianming, I’ve come too!"
Li Tianming looked up to see a robust man crouching on the ground, looking rather comical, but as soon as he finished speaking, he actually flew to the stone table, then in the next second, onto the wall.
The "flying" here was rather exaggerated; it was more like his jumping speed was incredibly fast.
"My name is Li Zhenhu. I hope I can help Young Master Li capture the enemy."
"Oh, sure, sure!"
Li Tianming, of course, knew of Li Zhenhu’s reputation. His nickname was Jumping Tiger because of his quick movements and strong jumping ability. Soon after his debut, he made a name for himself on the Martial World and earned his place.
Li Tianming was about to turn around to boast to Song Tianbao when suddenly he smelled a strange scent. This fragrance was very special, not comparable to any Chanel perfume; it had its own unique character.
Turning to look behind him at the source of the scent, Li Tianming saw a woman in red standing before him.
Li Tianming stood there, speechless for a long moment. She must be Xie Xiangxiang? Li Tianming swallowed hard. Known as Poison Rose, Xie Xiangxiang was, like the Song Family, a recluse of the mountains, residing in Orchid Valley, and dominating far and wide with her poisonous concoctions. She was stunningly beautiful, and there had been men who pursued her, but those men mysteriously disappeared. Afterwards, no one else dared to court her, as rumors spread that they had been turned into dregs by her poison and used as ingredients in her potions.
Although Li Tianming didn’t know the truth of the rumors, her arrival today was like adding wings to a tiger. Su Xuan, you are doomed this time!
"Please come inside and rest immediately after your tiring journey."
Li Tianming ushered them in, as Song Tianbao had already prepared their rooms. Normally, a modern person arriving at the secluded Song Family would be astonished, yet there was not a ripple of surprise on these visitors’ faces, no fluctuation of emotion whatsoever. It was clear that they possessed exceptionally strong mental fortitude, hardly perturbed by ordinary matters.
"Where is Su Xuan? Tell me."
Jing Gangzhi, who was leading the group, asked.
Li Tianming replied, "Don’t rush, you’ve just arrived. Rest first. Since Mount Everest has the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus he needs, he will surely come up here. All we need to do is wait for the rabbit on the mountain. Rest assured, as soon as there’s news of him, I’ll inform you immediately."
"Catching Su Xuan as soon as possible would be best."
The others echoed, one after another.
"Mhm."
Li Tianming was beyond satisfied. With such skilled individuals at his disposal, if they couldn’t subdue Su Xuan, Li Tianming would rather eat shit!
Since Song Tianbao had witnessed Su Xuan’s capabilities during his daughter’s study companion competition, he expressed his concern, "Are they really capable of capturing Su Xuan?"
Li Tianming scoffed disdainfully at him, "Let me put it this way, just in terms of combat experience, these people would leave Su Xuan several streets behind. Su Xuan is like a frog at the bottom of a well, while these men are like beasts of the wild. Comparing Su Xuan to them is ludicrous—they aren’t even in the same league!"
"When Su Xuan appears, I want him handed over to me!"
With a nickname like Jumping Tiger, Li Zhenhu lightly placed his hand on the stone table. It seemed casual, but seconds later, the table shattered into several pieces and fell to the ground.
Song Tianbao was stunned, realizing that a mere touch could do that—what if he exerted his full strength? Wouldn’t that create explosion-like damage?
"Jumping Tiger, don’t be too arrogant!"
Jing Gangzhi looked at him coldly, speaking as if he were a senior addressing a junior.
"So what if I’m arrogant? My arrogance is backed by strength!"
Jumping Tiger retorted arrogantly, his eyes glaring.
"Hmph! You’re merely a country bumpkin showing off. Your Kung Fu is only good for deceiving children."
Jing Gangzhi spoke with a voice deep and resonant like a bell, giving listeners the sensation of heavy blows to their body with its profound depth.
Jing Gangzhi walked over to where Jumping Tiger had shattered the stone table. The broken table and large chunks of stone were strewn on the ground. Song Tianbao inwardly marveled, knowing that these slabs were quarried from Mount Everest and were exceptionally hard—it was astonishing that a man could shatter them with a single blow.
What happened next astonished Song Tianbao even more. As Jing Gangzhi, seemingly without effort, stepped on a piece of stone, it turned into powder!
Seeing this scene, Li Tianming’s jaw nearly dropped in awe. How could there be someone so formidable in this world? Those were exceedingly hard stones under his feet—had it been a person instead, they would surely have been reduced to mush!
Song Tianbao was dumbfounded. What kind of people had Li Tianming invited? Each was more ferocious than the last.
For years, the Song Family had been living on Mount Everest, isolated from the outside world for over a century, only venturing out for necessary purchases. Witnessing the prowess of the outside world’s masters left Song Tianbao utterly shaken. He leaned back in his chair and slowly sat down, his hand trembling slightly as he held his teacup. Their strength was incomparable!
"Master Jin is indeed more formidable than the legends say!"
Li Tianming immediately showered Jing Gangzhi with flattery, while the other masters revealed different reactions on their faces. Some were extremely disdainful internally. For instance, Yan Feitian believed that sheer brute force was useless without advanced technique or skill in a real fight.
Yan Feitian carried the heavy and long Flying Sky Sword on his back, wielding it effortlessly as if it were a toy.
The beautiful Poison Rose Xie Xiangxiang did not even bother to look, finding the display of men boasting about their strength meaningless.
Seeing Jing Gangzhi’s display, Jumping Tiger stopped boasting, though he was inwardly unconvinced. Speed was his forte, and his nickname derived from his rapid leaping ability. Smashing the stone table was not even his strong suit. In the end, the one who caught Su Xuan would be the true master.
All these masters believed that capturing Su Xuan would prove who the true master was.
The reason the Li Family could summon so many masters was largely due to the rumor that Su Xuan was the disciple of the Military God, who in turn was the disciple of another mysterious master. They thoroughly investigated Su Xuan’s background, knowing that defeating him was just a minor goal.
These experts had come because they heard that other masters would be attending, each harboring a tremendous conspiracy deep in their hearts.
