The Cure for Arrogance
Zhao Wuji and Wang Bao discussed for some time. After than the bodyguards and two martial artists shared their opinions. Even Zhao Wuji was unable to believe it. But since Wang Bao said so, he didn't have any reason to doubt. The means displayed by J B were indeed more powerful than Xu Changsheng.
Zhao: "Do you really believe he can treat me?"
WB: "I don't think that should be a problem for him. I just got a news. He treated Meng Yue and even destroyed the cultivation of an elder of Nangon family having cultivation of a 1st step peak master. So, this shouldn't be a difficult task for him. But I don't understand. What does he want to achieve? Why help so many people? I hope he doesn't put any impossible conditions."
Zhao: "According to what you said, so far his conditions were simple and only benefitted and saved others. He also has the power to upgrade the cultivation levels of others instantly. This must be an extremely high-level master."
WB: "Yes, he claims to be the direct disciple of the Supreme Being who seems to rule over the Immortals. But is that even possible?"
Zhao: "Why not? We don't know everything about this world, do we? For example, what is the level of Xu Changsheng?"
WB: "That is true, its 7:30 PM. He should arrive around 8 PM."
Zhao: "I have waited for long. I can wait another 30 minutes."
J B: "There is no need. I am already here. Hello Big Brother Zhao. My name is Zhao Bai. Friends call me J B. This is my little sister Xinxin." He introduced himself and Xinxin.
"And to answer your question, Xu Changsheng is at least two level's higher than the current level of Xinxin. Although it's western custom but do you mind shaking hands with me?"
Zhao and Wang Bao were surprised, but they knew about the instant teleportation. So quickly recovered and said, "Not at all" and he put his hand forward for a shake. J B took his hand and by the time the handshake was over Zhao Wuji had not only recovered his injury but had also become a 1st step peak master.
J B: "How do you feel?"
Zhao: "My body has already recovered? And strength too, in fact feels better than before."
J B: "That's good then."
Zhao: "How may I repay you?"
J B: "That's what I am here to discuss. But it's not that simple. However, I can assure you, it will not be a loss for you. In fact, you will even gain advantage. However, please bear in mind you may have to make some small compromises, none of that will hurt your family. Neither Sister Rui or niece.
By the way, you haven't contacted your daughter in so many days. She only knows you as a small-time businessman. She is being bullied in school by the successor of Chinese triads there who happens to study in the same school. She is being blackmailed saying that they will destroy your business. Although it was at very low level it happened once, my brothers took care of it. They are super safe and under my protection for now. I hope we can get them both back here now that you are healed. But for this we need to reconcile with the Little Kitten Chen Tianyi and Black Lizard Li Qindi. You can't keep fighting amongst yourselves.
So, let's call the one by one. All the important people. Ah before that, Wang Bao, you take these three lists. The first list are the hosts for tomorrow's lunch. The second list is the one that are guests for tomorrow's lunch. The third list is the list of the guests at 6 PM for which you alone will be the host. It's just a day of work. I will call over the hosts mentioned in the first list. You need not worry. You just arrange for their stay for tonight. I hope Mr Wang Bao will quickly arrange for it."
He then smiled and said to Zhao Wuji, "Please call the people in the order mentioned."
The order was:
1. General Meng Zhang Zheng
2. Yang Wudi
3. Wu Tianxi
4. Chen Tianyi
5. Li Qindi
6. Meng Huang
7. Li Er
They were called and told to be ready within 15 minutes and asked to be away from people. They were also told they will be transported to Tiandu. Whether they believe it or not was upto them. But since they it was Zhao Wuji who had called and some had their information networks and knew about the state of elder of the Nangong family they mostly understood.
The only exceptions were Meng Huang and Li Er. Both were drunk and not dressed properly. Well either way, all of them were summoned instantly at the Jiangnan Pavilion.
When they all suddenly appeared, they were stupefied. Not just Meng Huang and Li Er even others couldn't believe the current situation. It was instant teleportation! Only one of the four Heavenly Kings of God Faction, had such an ability but summoning 7 people simultaneously to his own location was something never heard of before.
Without waiting for them he said, "Welcome my dear elders and brothers. My name is Jiang. Friends call me J B. I am sure most of you have heard of me by now. My teacher, the master of Supreme Sect, the Supreme Being of the Multiverse has tasked me to help you all.
This is an emergency. In the next few years, our country will be facing many foreign enemies, for example Qin Emperor, Dark Council, Assassin's League, The Holy Church, the Mozang and the Demons etc. Some of you are aware of the seals and other worlds out there.
The seal will break very soon, 2 years at the most. You will not be able to stop it. Even the 12 Golden statues from the Qin Emperor's tomb will not help completely.
And what are you all doing? Fighting amongst yourselves! Declining forces as well as progress. So, the very first thing to do is to unite. As for benefits I will provide many. Some are general benefits.
Some are personal benefits. I guarantee I mean you no harm. All I need from you is cooperation. And even that is your choice. You are free to not cooperate. As per our Sect's rules we don't kill or coerce. We are a very moral Sect. You don't even need to leave your current sect or faction.
As for benefits, have a look at Zhao Wuji and Wang Bao. I treated them and even raised their cultivation. What do you say?"
After thinking for some time Yang Wudi finally spoke up, "What do you want?"
"Nothing big. For example, right now, nobody knows J B. I want to become a brand. So, I want to become little brother of Yang Wudi, Chen Tianyi, Wu Tianxi and Li Qindi. I will also want to be recognized as successor of Zhao Wudi so that I get a launch pad in Tiandu.
Obviously, this will make me grandson of the great General Zhang Zheng and Big Brother of Meng Huang & Li Er. I think you all will agree that these two little rascals are out of control and due to your protection are creating all sorts of trouble and harming other citizens.
I will take them under my wing and they will help me run my business. I promise no harm will come to them. Not only that, I will turn them into model citizens. If all of you recognize me, my tasks going forward will become a lot easier."
General Zhang Zheng asked, "And what are those tasks?"
J B: "Without going into details my tasks include removing threats and strengthening our country. I will make you all powerful than ever before. And also make your subordinates powerful. I can also extend your life."
Li Qindi: "This is all very tempting. Isn't this the deal with the devil?"
J B: "Hey Little Black Lizard, you're the devil. You really think everybody is as cunning as you? You call yourself Dragon Emperor. You are a little Black Lizard. Have you seen a true dragon? You will piss your pants when you see one. I am the true Dragon Emperor! I rule over the Dragons.
My Teacher gave me the title. Anyway, you idiots will not believe me, so let me prove by actions. Let's go to my training ground." He then teleported all onto a mountain.
When they arrived what they saw bewildered them. There were wyverns and griffins flying. There were different kinds of creatures and trees. This was a place which had 3 moons. It was clearly a different world.
Xinxin asked, "Big brother where is this?" He was holding her hand so that she doesn't feel uncomfortable.
Rather than answering Xinxin, he said, "Wait a minute. We need to invite one more person."
When Xu Changsheng arrived, he immediately asked, "Who are you? Which hidden world is this?"
J B said loudly enough for all to listen: "This is the World of Supreme Sect. One of the islands in my territory. This island is about the size of country J of your planet and this island is just my personal training ground.
As for me, I am the direct disciple of the Master of the Supreme Sect, the Supreme being who rules over the kings of Immortals. My name is Jiang. Friends call me J B. I
have been given the title of Dragon Emperor and this Island is my territory in a hidden world. It was me who summoned you here along with them." J B pointed to others.
Xu: "Why?"
J B: "Of course, reason exists for every person. I have a proposal for everyone here. But... you are special. I have cured the injury you caused to Big Brother Wuji. So, your 10-year promise is meaningless. And you don't need to train him. I will do that. With me he will advance quickly and will grasp the true meaning of 'Promise of the Heaven' Inheritance'.
Similarly, I will help Big Brother Yang Wudi to advance with his 'Ancient War God' Inheritance. And the 3rd of them who each got the inheritance of the ancient Yungdi Palace in the mountains while playing... the Little Black Lizard Li Qindi - it will depend on how he behaves.
As for Big Brother Chen Tianyi, I will help him advance his ancient Wizard Inheritance. For General Zhang Zheng I will enhance his life and make him stronger. I have plans for others as well.
But like I said, you are special uncle Xu. I need to cure your illness first."
Xu: "What illness?"
J B: "Its name is arrogance!" After saying he waited for a minute and then slapped him on the face. Everyone was stunned.
J B: "I give you a chance Uncle Xu, use your full power. You can use your trump card as well, that sword of yours. Try me if you can. I promise I won't retaliate. I won't even lift a finger or move from this place.
This is my Arrogance, which is a cure for your arrogance. Just because you have a little higher cultivation you have been causing trouble. From today it stops. You are my subordinate from now on Mr Xu. Try if you can beat me!"
