Chapter Thirty-Two: This Object Has Destiny With Me

  In fact, for nearly ten years, Shi Long has rarely appeared in the arena to handle matters, and all business has been handed over to his disciples. However, because the martial arts hall bears his name, people from far and near still flock to it. The number one master of Yangzhou may not be anything in the eyes of the world, but within the city of Yangzhou, his prestige is unmatched by few.

  Wang Yu speculated that Shi Long's internal and external skills should have reached the realm of a top-notch master.

  According to Wang Yu's investigation, Shi Long is a man who loves the Taoist way of life and has remained single until now. He has been staying at home for a long time without going out, and it is unknown what he is doing.

  Wang Yu knew that Shi Long was definitely studying the "Longevity Formula". The "Longevity Formula" is a Taoist martial arts classic, and after getting it, how could Shi Long not be ecstatic? Unfortunately, with Shi Long's talent, even if he spent another ten years, he would still not be able to research anything, and in the end, someone else would benefit from it.

  Today, Shi Long was restless and felt that something was going to happen, unable to calm down to study the "Longevity Formula".

  At the same time, Wang Yu arrived at the entrance of the Stone Dragon Dojo.

  Looking at this martial arts arena that still has some grandeur, Wang Yu let out a long sigh. What a pity, he didn't know if this arena would still exist after today.

  "I don't know what the young master is here for? Is it to pay respects to a teacher?" The owner of the martial arts school, seeing Wang Yu standing in front of the door, immediately had a middle-aged man come forward to greet him. Wang Yu was wearing brocade clothes, his attire elegant and refined, with an air of nobility about him, looking every inch like a young master. Not at all did he appear to have any martial arts skills on him, so it wasn't strange that the middle-aged man thought Wang Yu had come to pay respects to a teacher. In fact, over the years, there hadn't been a few young masters who had come to pay respects to Shi Long.

  Wang Yu smiled and said: "I'm not here to pay respects, I'm here to challenge the school." Paying respects was something Shi Long wasn't even qualified to do as Wang Yu's junior.

  "Kick... kick the hall?" The middle-aged man was stunned by Wang Yu's words, and after reacting, he looked at Wang Yu like an idiot. It was clear that he had taken Wang Yu for one of those young masters who were foolish from listening to stories, learned some three-legged cat kung fu at home, and even the guards didn't dare to fight him with all their might, thinking he was invincible, wanting to step on Shi Long to rise to power.

  A burst of laughter also came from behind the middle-aged man.

  "Wow, did I hear that right? He said he's here to kick our asses."

  "Little prince, you're so fair and white, have your fur grown evenly?"

  ……

  It's well-known that people who practice martial arts tend to have bad tempers. Those with high levels of skill are relatively better, having experienced many things and gained composure and refinement, they generally won't get angry easily. On the other hand, those mediocre martial artists will draw their swords at the slightest disagreement, and loudly cursing each other is a common occurrence.

  Wang Yu shook his head and said in a low voice: "What a waste of time. Even the extras don't have the awareness of being extras."

  Wang Yu took a step forward and asked the middle-aged man, "Is Shi Long inside the arena?"

  "It's not easy to see our boss, though." The middle-aged man had already taken Wang Yu as a fool and was thinking of asking someone to help get rid of him. Unfortunately, he hadn't made a move before passing out on the ground.

  Wang Yu learned that Shi Long was in the dojo and felt a thrill of excitement. Too lazy to waste any more words, he stepped directly towards the dojo.

  With his powers in full swing, the bizarre space of Tianmo's Great Method directly caused that middle-aged man to lose consciousness.

  Wang Yu swept through, knocking down all the disciples of the Taoist temple who had just mocked him. It has to be said that these people's martial arts skills were quite poor, and they were basically defeated by Wang Yu in one move. Not even a decent second-rate master was among them. It seems that over the years, Shi Long focused on researching the "Longevity Formula" and neglected the cultivation of his disciples within the temple.

  "Shi Long, aren't you coming out yet?" Wang Yu said loudly. At this moment, everyone around Wang Yu was overturned, and all the disciples in the dojo were knocked down by Wang Yu. With such a big commotion, Wang Yu didn't believe that Shi Long hadn't noticed.

  "Honored guest, please enter and let's talk inside." A thick voice came from within the room.

  Wang Yu smiled, the master finally condescended to show his face. Relying on his superior skills and boldness, Wang Yu entered the room without any qualms. With Shi Long's martial arts skills, it would be extremely difficult to launch a sneak attack on Wang Yu.

  As soon as Wang Yu entered the room, he saw a middle-aged man sitting on the main seat. He had a square face and a solemn expression, especially his hands were slightly larger than others, covered with calluses.

  "I've met Master Shi before, I'm disturbing you today, and I hope you can forgive me." Wang Yu said with a gesture.

  Shi Long let out a cold hum and said, "I dare not. Young master, your age is young, but your martial arts have already reached the realm of perfection, far surpassing mine. I don't know what brings you here?"

  Wang Yu coughed lightly and said with a hint of shyness, "The owner of the stone quarry has something that is destined for me." It's got to be said that Wang Yu's face was much thinner than Zhun Ti Sheng Ren's. You see, when Zhun Ti Sheng Ren says the same thing, it sounds so righteous and confident, without changing his expression. No wonder they call him a saint. I still need more practice, Wang Yu warned himself inwardly.

  Shi Long's face turned even uglier as he said, "What kind of treasure is it?"

  Wang Yu blinked his eyes and stared straight at Shi Long Dao: "The quarry owner has already guessed it, why ask again. Is there anything else on the quarry owner's body that can attract me besides the 'Longevity Secret'?"

  Shi Long's face changed greatly, and after a moment he calmed down again, saying in a deep voice: "It has finally come to this day. I had expected it long ago, but I didn't think it would come so soon. I don't know what the young master's surname is or which faction he belongs to."

  "Does it matter? Stonedragon, with your abilities, you can't even protect the Longevity Scripture, and it will only bring you harm. Why not hand it over to me... Since ancient times, treasures belong to those who are virtuous..." As he spoke, Wang Yu saw Stonedragon looking at him with disdain, so he changed his words: "Since ancient times, treasures belong to those who are capable, a child holding gold in a bustling market is no different from telling others to come and rob."

  Shi Long's mind was racing with electricity, but on the surface he appeared calm and composed, smiling as he said: "This Shi person has always been wild and unruly, never understanding the way of courtesy and etiquette. He is also a man who doesn't take kindly to soft words, perhaps in a moment of desperation, he will destroy everything, including the book, and then, young master, you will have gained nothing."

  Wang Yu burst out laughing and said, "Stone Yard Master, you're too naive. Do you really think I'm that easy to deceive? If Stone Yard Master can destroy the treasure book, then this book must not be Guang Chengzi's 'Long Life Secret'. Destroying it wouldn't be a big deal. However, Stone Yard Master's attitude is harmful and unbeneficial to both him and the noble Daoist temple. My temper isn't that good." The threatening tone was evident by the end of his speech.

  Shi Long's heart sank, knowing that the other party would not give up until they achieved their goal. He made a final struggle: "How did you know I put the 'Longevity Secret' in that place? If I refuse to say it even if I die, what can you do?"

  Wang Yu pointed to the chest of Shi Long and said slowly, "Isn't it in your chest? After obtaining the 'Longevity Secret', you studied day and night, always carrying it with you. Shi Changzhu, my daring to come this time means I have already investigated clearly, don't struggle."

  Shi Long's heart sank to the bottom of the valley, he had a premonition that this time he would not be able to escape.
