In the face of the apprentices' exclamations, Leon Wei accepted them calmly.
"Huh, I actually saw a wish from an apprentice's head. I want to hear the specific process," they said.
For such a request, as the master of the martial arts hall, how could he not comply? Otherwise, it would chill the apprentices' hearts.
Leon Wei cleared his throat and began to explain, "Last night, it was dark and windy. I hadn't slept yet when I heard some commotion outside. I went out to the courtyard, and suddenly, a poisoned needle attacked. Of course, this kind of attack wouldn't harm me..."
The apprentices around listened quietly. When they heard the exciting parts, their mouths dropped open, showing expressions of shock.
Leon Wei's storytelling ability was quite good.
He explained clearly and straightforwardly, with his voice rising and falling, leaving the apprentices captivated.
"And then, this is how it happened."
After finishing the story, Leon Wei observed the expressions of each apprentice. He was very satisfied; the apprentices' admiration for him had grown a bit more.
Next came the wish fulfillment.
Perfect.
At this moment, Mo Wangnian hurried over. Outside the martial arts hall, a crowd had already gathered, eager to hear about the incident. The news of a murder at the Lin Family Martial Arts Hall had certainly piqued their interest. After all, gossip is human nature, and no one can resist it.
"Leon Wei, what is..." Mo Wangnian looked at the corpse, unfamiliar and strange. Attacking Leon Wei in the middle of the night, and at the Skin and Flesh Realm, it was clear that the assailant had come prepared. Could it be true that this person was sent by the Triad?
"A killer, quite arrogant, not hiding his face, very confident," Leon Wei said, thinking to himself that the assassin's strength was slightly lacking, leading to his own demise.
Mo Wangnian examined the wounds, and the severity of the chest injury made him gasp in shock.
It was ferocious.
The force that caused such injuries was undoubtedly fierce.
One had to admit, Leon Wei indeed had skills.
"Leon Wei, I'll take this body back first," Mo Wangnian suspected the Triad's involvement, but he had no evidence.
"Okay."
The teaching that needed to be done had been completed, and leaving a dead body in the martial arts hall was ultimately not auspicious.
Soon, Mo Wangnian had the body taken away.
The onlookers outside dispersed, disappointed at the lack of gossip, but they didn't go far. Instead, they gathered in small groups, discussing among themselves.
Lin Family Martial Arts Hall.
"Master, master, great news! A killer tried to assassinate Leon Wei last night," an apprentice who had heard the news rushed in excitedly to share the gossip.
Hearing this, Bai Canghai, who was drinking tea, felt a surge of joy. He quickly stood up, "What happened?"
The apprentice said, "That killer was killed by Leon Wei."
Bai Canghai: ...?
Seriously?
How is this good news?
"Get out," Bai Canghai remembered the face of this apprentice, scolding him angrily.
"Oh."
The scolded apprentice shrunk back, feeling wronged as he left. He thought to himself that he wouldn't inform the master of any gossip in the future. Not only did he not receive praise, but he was also scolded. It was really unfair.
Bai Canghai was displeased with the killer being killed.
What a joke?
If you don't have enough strength, why take on assassination jobs?
But he also wondered who did it. Sending an assassin to kill Leon Wei, could it be Pang Haichao? Wait, suddenly, Bai Canghai felt a pang of anxiety. He couldn't help but worry that Leon Wei might pin this on him.
After all, the Three Halls Competition involved a struggle between him, Pang Haichao, and Leon Wei.
Thinking this, Bai Canghai hurriedly left the martial arts hall. He knew he had to do something; he had to dispel this misunderstanding no matter what.
Lin Family Martial Arts Hall.
The apprentices were still practicing martial arts, but they were still immersed in what the master had just said, unable to snap out of it for a long time.
So domineering.
Was that the power of the Wind and Thunder Palm that the master mentioned?
If they could cultivate to the level of the master, they would definitely be able to unleash the same power.
Look at the ground, look at the dented walls.
With their current strength, it was hard to imagine the kind of force needed to cause this.
The eldest senior brother had already gone to find craftsmen to repair the walls.
Meanwhile, Leon Wei, under the admiring gaze of the apprentices, practiced the Dragon Elephant Fist, every punch creating a gust of wind, leaving the apprentices dazzled and full of admiration.
Feeling this effect, Leon Wei exhaled lightly, clapped his hands, and instructed the apprentices to practice diligently.
This was exactly what he wanted.
To let the apprentices know that their master was strong, knowledgeable in many martial arts, and that they should practice well because they had a lot to learn from him.
Just as he stepped out, he decided to go to Douhua Lv's place for a bowl of douhua, to fulfill a wish. As he sat down, he saw Bai Canghai hurrying over.
"Bai Master," Leon Wei called out.
Upon hearing the voice, Bai Canghai quickly approached Leon Wei. "Leon Wei, I heard you encountered an assassin last night?"
"Yes, indeed an assassin. Did you hire him, Bai Master?" Leon Wei asked.
"Oh, how could that be? I, Bai, could never do such a thing. If I lie, may my son be born without a butthole," Bai Canghai hastily swore.
"Just asking casually, don't be nervous. Want some douhua?" Leon Wei offered.
"Sure."
Bai Canghai carefully observed Leon Wei's condition from head to toe, but to his surprise, there was not a scratch on him. It seemed that the assassin's strength was lacking.
Leon Wei noticed Bai Canghai's expression and calmly said, "For a mere Skin and Flesh Realm assassin to dare to come and kill me, to be honest, he's quite foolish."
Bai Canghai stared at Leon Wei in astonishment.
Come on, do you even know what you're saying?
You're calling a Skin and Flesh Realm assassin mere?
Are you this arrogant now?
Considering that Bai Canghai was also just at the Skin and Flesh Realm, according to your words, should I just surrender at the Three Halls Competition in twenty days? Why bother competing?
"Bai Master, your douhua," Douhua Lv brought the douhua, pulling Bai Canghai out of his daze.
"Oh, thank you."
Bai Canghai thanked him somewhat uncomfortably, then looked at Leon Wei's indifferent and calm gaze, unsure of what to say.
The two of them ate their douhua in silence.
At that moment, Leon Wei noticed a wish appearing on Bai Canghai's head.
[I really want to know if this is true or false (0/1), reward: white wish points *2]
Well, well.
Unexpectedly, there was a pleasant surprise.
"Bai Master, are you full?" Leon Wei put down his spoon.
"Yes, I am."
Bai Canghai had no appetite at all.
His mind was consumed by this matter.
"Let's go, let's go to the Inspectorate and see. The body was just taken away; I'll show you the truth," Leon Wei was determined to get Bai Canghai's wish points, seeing is believing, he couldn't just say I tricked you, right?
Bai Canghai blinked.
How did he know I wanted to know the truth?
