Day 150- 200 Sishui County Part 18 Taking out Pugilists Part 2

.

After a meal-

.

"I will see you later, I need to head back with mother." Youya had left after dropping by briefly. A brother and sister group accompanied her. "Thank you for helping Zhu Yuntao and Ruohan. Their father's poison was beyond my understanding to treat."

She was quite good at Network and it showed once she entered the Martial Arts Circle. Being a local and being a young businesswoman helped a good bit.

"It gives more support for business in Zhonghai. The security as well for both the personal issue help to." Rexford gave a small wave to the brother and sister duo and remembered the stakes they would go through to deal with the Medicine God Valley. "I will come to Zhonghai in the coming months, so hopefully you have some places for me to see."

"Of course, we still have a honeymoon." Her cheeks immediately flushed as a sweet feeling was in her stomach. She still was getting used to the arrangement. "Behave yourself."

On her way out, she spoke softly to Churan sharing something of the womanly nature it seemed.

"Yah know, that girl is dangerous." Richard said simply as they waited for the others while moving out. "She gives the same vibes as "her" back then."

"Hmm.. I didn't notice." Rexford looked at Miao Xiaoqian and frowned. Eyes flaring golden as he checked to make sure she was not some reincarnation or some kind of transmigrator or something. "Nope, a normal girl."

"I talked to Clark earlier, he is enjoying himself in the U.S. Pretty happy I made it here also. Of course, I didn't tell him everything about what I am compared to you." Richard Senses picked up people with Qi moving about not too far away. "What do you think, spare a few of them for training?"

"I planned on the one, need more trained forces to check around." Rexford had wrapped his Divine Sense on the ambushers already. A small exchange would benefit him at this time actually. "Observe the fight between one of them and Yang Chao. Tell me what you think later."

As the others came out with Lu Yanwu two shades to the wind, Lu Yanxue kept Miao Xiaoqian up barely. If not for Wei Ziqing and Wei Lan, usage of Qi would have been used to take them with.

Having gone out for drinks, the group was all in good cheers. The regular women however passed out. Wei Lan and Wei Ziqing threw them over their shoulders. With their strength, it was nothing of note.

"Ding Peng from Lingnan area, Yang Chao he is yours to deal with." Rexford had stopped and turned to the young man. "Show us your moves."

Out stepped a man in a body suit. If he was an assassin the reflective gold markings would have given him away everytime to anyone with open eyes.

Twirling a small knife on his finger, the skills of the Flying Dagger Sect had him confident.

"So those of the Ansatuken are really good, didn't think you would move like this knowing you could be attacked."

"Umm, sure." Yang Chao was very unsure of this but pushed forward. Wei Ziqing gave him a little cheer emboldening him further. 'I can do this, just a person who's killed before. Nothing much.'

"Brat, you are way to early to beat me!" Looking at the man before him in disdain, Ding Peng was going to make it quick to instill fear into them. 'After I take him out, I can collect my reward!'

*Bang!* The knife hit against the fist and then melted in a split second. A dark red flame around Yang Chao moved like water. He delivered an elbow strike shattering the bodysuit Ding Peng wore.

As the flexible fighter moved away, he found himself unable to retreat far at all. Behind him was a net of flame. Moving to force Peng Ding back forward. Unable to maneuver how he wanted, a blow to the face caught him easily.

"Damn!" Twisted back, a blow to the stomach knocked him down to the ground in quick succession. "Are you all going to stay in the shadows!?" Face burned and scarred, the would-be killer was in trouble.

"Who would have thought you would be this bad off." A gray-haired man came out with ten others. "You better come out as well Mad Sun, or the XinYi Sect will have more than one problem."

A wild-haired martial artist and a group of 13 came out. After seeing the brief exchange Yang Chao had they were on guard and ready to strike.

A few passerby's heard the commotion but more like-minded were trying to see what advantage they could get in the process. The monk Richard spoke with earlier had a troubled look on his face.

"Diamond Temple would do well not to make a move." Wei Lan looked at the monk. "It would not do my heart good to kill one of you."

"I.. understand." Knowing he was unable to match the young woman he relented completely. Tutuli was getting what he wanted, it would be bad to cause trouble. "The Diamond Temple comes first."

"Heat Fist!" Yang Chao focused on his Qi after kneeing his opponent in the chest. Kicking off and then shooting a fist at him from the air. 'Ugh! I still can't control the flames well!'

*Fwoosh!* A fist made of Qi Flames engulfed Ding Peng. His skin cracked as he dried out before it was over. Naked and burnt, Ding Peng's dried eyes looked at the youngster in fear.

"Yang Chao.. why didn't you kill him?" Rexford asked after not seeing his disciple do anything else. Head tilted to the side at the fact he left his opponent alive and did not even tie him up. Someone who wanted to rob and kill them, a foolish choice without gaining anything for it to do so. "You still have such a long way to go."

"He is defeated, that is good enough." Yang Chao said firmly. He really was just a punk through and through. Couldn't change that root easily.

"Haha, Mercy for one's enemy. How interesting." Rexford picked up Ding Peng with the use of his Divine Sense. "You belong to me now you understand? No one else."

Looking into the golden eyes, Ding Peng felt Fear around his body completely to the marrow in his bones. Then in an instant, he was gone from sight to all spectators.

"Lingnan Flying Dagger Sect can send someone to meet me later." Rexford needed bigger recruitment forces after all. No need to start from scratch when he could just help with disposable forces. 'They are nothing like those who joined Ansastuken.. they are people I actually care for.'

A pang of guilt washed over him. If they became a part of his forces he would care for them. He never treated his people of staff as expendable before. Something had changed in his mental state if that happened.

"Some of you accompany Wei Lan to handle her business with the Diamond Temple."

"We will take care of it." Wei Ziqing led the more lawful members away. 'I don't think he killed him, so that is interesting.'

Richard left to go and pay a quick visit to the Temple as well before coming back. Teleport made travel really easy after all. He wants to fight against all the Physical martial artists to increase his fighting prowess anyway.

"Churan, it is a nice night for a stroll is it not?" Rexford called out.

"Yes." Having his eyes solely on her, she was caught off guard. To fix the issue she brushed a few strands of air behind her ear. "Shall we go for one?" Grabbing his extended arm, they headed off. The beaming smile on her face would last for a long time.

'I wonder how he is doing around this time?' Thinking of the man he let get away from the Hong Sect, it should be time for his wounds to heal and for him to make it back to his Master for help. 'The young Ghost Lord has been on his toes, Richard can absorb negative energy so he can help police them with Ji Xingyu, Wu Shanhe, and Wei Ziqing a little.'

As Lu Yanwu and Lu Yanxue dreamed away, people in the Lu family were trying to find ways to fix the situation they were in. Lu Long consulted with the other family members to find the best option.

Each option so far had Lu Hexuan nervous about his future in the family. Fear seeped in at the idea of Rexford teaching the two females martial arts before he had the chance to gain a leg up.

Rexford pieced it in his head to have the Lu Family members that would support in the area to work with his forces here and also teach Yu Yanyua and Jiang Churan more.

Canada-

.

In an icy landscape, Lin Hu was getting ready to jump out of a helicopter. Down below was his master, the leader of the Hong Sect. Telling his brother disciples he would take it from here, the man jumped out with a worried look.

Not only did he have to tell his master he was spared by his opponent months ago, he also had to inform him he was even helped to move further in cultivation by him. The information that who defeated him was a new person on the scene and rumored to be a Grandmaster was only somewhat interesting.

"Hmm?" The lighting based Qi in his hands broke apart scarring the flesh while contemplating. "You stepped into the Transcendence Realm." His hands were not the only issue to look over later. "Memory serves you were not one of the more outstanding disciples Lin Hu, how did you advance so quickly?"

"Hehe," Lin Hu was proud but not so much in front of his master who had decades of experience over him. "the scene has changed Master." Ignoring the insult, he got straight to the point. "A Master Mingyun of the Ansatsuken "helped" me along."

"Ansatsuken, is that not Japanese?" He was taken back at the thought of the possibility of an invasion had taken place while he was here. Eyes narrowing in wondering how it is written. "Master Mingyun, is it written like Destiny?"

"He does not appear to be Japanese and the information we found so far is conflicting about his age and origins. It will take a few days to finish the investigation further. The Military seems to be blocking a lot of it." Passing the documents over from his coat pocket, Lin Hu noticed the air didn't bother him as much as he thought it should. 'My strength has really grown a lot. Master Mingyun has done more for me during an exchange than my own master did during the entire time I have known him!'

His master did spend a lot of his time on his views of training. Using Inner Strength to advance his body. His mentality is to train his qi in the cold. Contemplating Divinity to train his spirit. His focus on training his Qi and the Biolelecticity within the body showed more results each day.
