Hahaha, how interesting! Who would have thought that the small Huashan Sect would produce two exceptional geniuses out of nowhere!
In contrast, the Huashan Sects leader, Yue Buqun, is rather unremarkable. I wonder if hes deliberately concealing his abilities or if hes truly unimpressive.
The steward of the Heavens Secrets Tower laughed heartily, showing some interest in both Yang Huan and the Huashan Sect.
He immediately gave instructions, Since Yang Huan has defeated Hua Wu Que, he should take Hua Wu Ques place on the ranking and provide a detailed account of the battle for reevaluation.
Yes!
Xingcheng, Tianfu Inn.
Hua Wu Que had already secured a room, but at the moment, he was in Yang Huans room.
The two beauties, Helu and Hesuang, had also been allowed inside.
Yang Huan and Hua Wu Que were drinking together, appearing quite friendly.
Mainly because Yang Huan had limited knowledge of the martial world, he wanted to ask about some things.
Young Master Hua, whats the deal with the Heavens Secrets Tower and the Innate Ranking? Yang Huan inquired.
You dont know about them, Young Master Yang? Hua Wu Que seemed surprised.
I seldom leave the mountain, and I rarely inquire about things below, Yang Huan explained.
Hua Wu Que smiled faintly; his smile was extremely charming.
This made Helu, Hesuang, and even Huang Rong all gaze in awe.
But for Helu and Hesuang, this was even more shocking. For many years, they had never seen Hua Wu Que smile before.
In their hearts, they felt that their young master had changed.
At the same time, they were a bit worried that the fellow surnamed Yang might be a bad influence on their young master.
In reality, Hua Wu Que was quite approachable; he had never refused to interact with people. However, because of his aura, others didnt dare get too close to him.
The Flowery Palace was also a cold place, so he had indeed never smiled since he was young.
The Heavens Secrets Tower emerged out of thin air a hundred years ago. Its said that the master of the Heavens Secrets Tower possesses extraordinary martial arts skills and has reached the realm of unity between man and nature.
The Heavens Secrets Tower wields immense influence, such that even the imperial court, with its million-strong army, doesnt dare provoke them lightly.
Furthermore, the Heavens Secrets Tower keeps a low profile and remains highly mysterious. Few high-ranking members make public appearances. My understanding of the Heavens Secrets Tower is also limited.
In summary, the Heavens Secrets Tower is an intelligence organization. They control a lot of information and also sell information.
The Innate Ranking is a list created by the Heavens Secrets Tower that ranks experts of the Innate Realm. They update the ranking based on individuals battle records.
Today, with Wu Ques defeat at Young Master Yangs hands, it wont be long before the world knows. And Young Master Yang will replace his ranking, becoming famous throughout the world.
After listening to Hua Wu Ques explanation, Yang Huan understood.
He hadnt expected such an advanced organization to exist in this world. It was indeed quite interesting.
Who else is on the Innate Ranking? Is Linghu Chong on the list? Yang Huan curiously asked.
The current number one on the Innate Ranking is Yang Xiao, the Carefree Envoy of the Ming Cult.
Linghu Young Master is also on the list, tied for fifteenth place with the Sect Leader Ren.
Yang Huan hadnt expected that Yang Xiao was only at the Innate Realm. However, Yang Xiaos martial arts were likely at the pinnacle of the Innate Realm, not far from reaching the Grandmaster level.
Linghu Chong ranked fifteenth, two places lower than Hua Wu Que.
With this, Yang Huan felt even more confident.
Of course, this ranking is just for reference.
After all, neither Hua Wu Que nor Linghu Chong had fought each other, so it was hard to say who was stronger or weaker.
Other than the Innate Ranking, are there other lists? Like a Grandmaster List or a Great Grandmaster List? Yang Huan asked curiously.
Other than the Innate Ranking, there is a Grandmaster List, but theres no Great Grandmaster List.
Great Grandmasters are extremely rare, and no one knows exactly how many there are.
Moreover, Great Grandmasters rarely make a move or appear, so theres no Great Grandmaster List.
Hua Wu Que answered.
In this world, Great Grandmasters were already extremely rare.
The unity between man and nature was a realm spoken of only in legends.
How many people had reached the realm of Great Grandmaster was something that very few people knew.
For instance, Zhang Sanfeng, the True Man of Wudang, was in what realm, and no one knew.
But what was certain was that Zhang Sanfeng started as a Great Grandmaster!
He might even have stepped into the realm of unity between man and nature!
Yang Huan immediately inquired, Whos at the top of the Grandmaster List?
Protecting Dragon Mountain Villas Iron-hearted Marquis, Zhu Wushi! Hua Wu Que answered.
Whats this? Zhu Wushi is only a Grandmaster?
Yang Huan expressed doubt about the authority of this list.
I dont know much about that, but he indeed holds the top spot on the Grandmaster List, Hua Wu Que said.
What about your Auntie Yueyue? Whats her rank? Yang Huan asked further.
My aunt, shes ranked seventh.
That Auntie Yueyue was ranked seventh; what kind of monsters populated this Grandmaster List?
However, upon closer thought, its quite reasonable for Zhu Wushi to be at the top and Yueyue to be seventh.
But Yang Huan still found it hard to believe that Zhu Wushi was only a Grandmaster; it couldnt be!
In fact, Zhu Wushi wasnt a Grandmaster, he just concealed his abilities quite well!
Alright, its getting late. You should rest early. We need to head to Heimu Cliff tomorrow, Yang Huan said.
In that case, Wu Que takes his leave.
Hua Wu Que stood up, still very politely saluted with clasped fists, bid farewell, and was about to leave.
Wait.
Yang Huan called out to Hua Wu Que.
Is there something else, Young Master Yang?
Hua Wu Ques brows slightly furrowed. He could tell that Yang Huans smile wasnt quite right.
In his heart, he had a bad feeling about this.
Smiling, Yang Huan said, Wu Que, I see your two maids are quite attractive. Why not let them stay with me tonight, and Ill just tell you that information directly.
Hua Luolu, and Hua Luoshuangs expressions changed drastically at his words, and they were filled with fear.
They knew that Hua Wu Que was constrained by Yang Huan, afraid that he might sell them out.
At the same time, Hua Wu Ques expression turned icy, and he said to Yang Huan, Young Master Yang, though I truly wish to know the truth from your lips, if the price is the presence of Hua Luolu, Hua Luoshuang, or any other woman, Id rather remain ignorant.
This response was within Yang Huans expectations as well.
Given Hua Wu Ques demeanor, he would absolutely not accept such conditions.
Upon hearing Hua Wu Ques reply, Hua Luolu and Hua Luoshuang breathed a sigh of relief. They also held even more respect for their young master.
However, Yang Huan continued, If women are not acceptable, how about men? I havent experienced the pleasures of same-sex love yet. Hua Young Master, your appearance is quite pleasing. Would you mind spending the night with me?
You Hua Wu Que immediately became furious and was about to confront Yang Huan.
At the same time, Yang Huan shattered his own sense of decency; he was thinking: How can there be such a person in this world?
Seeing Hua Wu Que about to confront him, Yang Huan quickly added, Im just kidding, just kidding. Hua Young Master, dont worry. Yang has no interest in same-sex relations, hahaha!
Please refrain from such jokes in the future, Young Master Yang.
With that said, Hua Wu Que stormed out in anger.
[Ding! Teasing Hua Wu Que triggers the Evil Deeds System.]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving a reward: Three years of pure inner energy.]
[Note: If the host successfully f*cks a strong man, the rewards will be substantial!]
Yang Huan: Get lost!
