All the heavens, starting with Little Li Flying Dagger

Chapter 154 Wang Gan Suppressed His Feelings

Upon entering the small building, an elderly man, barefoot, was sitting cross-legged on a kang (a heated brick bed), warming wine over a small fire.

The old man was dressed in a very ordinary blue and white fabric, or rather, blue, with the white being a faded white from washing.

If no one mentions it, no one would believe that this is the legendary richest man in the world – Huo Xiu.

"Good wine!"

Wang Gan smelled the aroma of the wine and couldn't help but praise it.

"It is indeed a fine wine. This is a century-old Daughter's Red wine, worth a hundred gold pieces per jar. There are not many people in the world who can drink it."

Huo Xiu sighed.

"I thought it would be Lu Xiaofeng who came, so I could sit down and have a good drink with him."

Wang Gan laughed.

"I can drink, and I can talk!"

Huo Xiu shook his head.

"Lu Xiaofeng is a good person. Although he is clever, he is still within the bounds of common sense."

"But you are too dangerous and too unpredictable."

"I sent all the spies from the Green Robe Pavilion to thoroughly investigate your past and came to a conclusion."

Wang Gan asked curiously.
"What conclusion?"

Huo Xiu suddenly looked up, his eyes flashing brightly.
"you are not human!"

Wang Gan looked strange. Was he being insulted?
"Because everyone has a past, but you don't. It seems that you really are, as you say, a visitor from heaven."

Huo Xiu's expression showed fear.

“When you got involved with Shangguan Feiyan, I knew things were going to get complicated.”

"Yan Tieshan, Dugu Yihe, those who deserve to die are still alive."

Wang Gan understood.
"So you told Huo Tianqing about my affair with Shangguan Feiyan, hoping he would kill me?"

Huo Xiu shook his head.

"Huo Tianqing's martial arts are not even as good as mine, how could he possibly kill you?"

"I just wanted to use him and the Celestial Bird Sect behind him to test whether you truly understand the secrets of heaven!"

Wang Gan sighed inwardly.

The villains in Lu Xiaofeng's world are like this: they are all incredibly cunning, rarely even making a move themselves. They all resort to underhanded tactics, unlike the villains in other worlds who are straightforward and use brute force to suppress others.

Jin Hong, I miss you.

"Now I'm sure."

"Young Master Tianji, you know everything, you know far too much,"

Huo Xiu sighed deeply.

"You know too much, it's keeping me up at night."

"So I can only let you go to sleep first."

Keng!
Suddenly, the mechanism activated, and an iron cage fell from above, trapping Wang Gan inside.

"Is this how you lull me to sleep?"

"Let me tell you, I'm someone who can't sleep in a particular bed."

Wang Gan was quite interested. He knocked on the cage net and found that it was indeed refined iron that had been tempered a hundred times and had also incorporated meteorite iron from outer space. Even Ximen Chuixue couldn't cut it.

“You are the Heavenly Mystery Prince, you should know that a person will die in seven days without food and will dry up in three days without water.”

"Even if you have the best martial arts skills, you definitely won't last more than ten days."

"Of course, given my cautious nature, I would have to wait at least ten more days, but given how high your martial arts skills are, I can hold out against you for a month!"

Huo Xiu smiled smugly.

"Your weapon ranking is correct. I am indeed weak in combat because there are too many ways to kill in this world. Taking matters into my own hands is the riskiest and stupidest way."

Wang Gan sighed.

"Let me tell you two secrets." Huo Xiu stared coldly at the person opposite him, remaining motionless.

After the net is lowered, it is not placed on the ground, but is connected to a mechanism and locked to the earth's veins. Even with the strength of ten thousand pounds, it is not certain that it can be lifted.

No matter how high Tianji Gongzi's martial arts skills are, he will definitely not be able to get out.

"There was once a madwoman who was also imprisoned in a ten-thousand-pound Dragon-Slaying Stone. Later, she lost her will to die and her martial arts broke through her limits, successfully unlocking her second form."

"They managed to break through the hill and escape."

Wang Gan slowly began to speak.

Huo Xiu sneered and remained silent.

A ten-thousand-pound stone that could break through a small mountain—are you kidding me with a myth?!
"And the second secret?"

Huo Xiu's tone was playful, wanting to see what tricks this mysterious young master had up his sleeve.

"I suppressed it."

"???"

Huo Xiu was stunned.
You're suppressing your feelings and going to find women, why are you telling me?!
"To be honest, I usually suppress myself too much, and I really can't hold it in anymore."

After saying that, Wang Gan took off his upper body clothes.
Huo Xiu looked flustered and quickly took two steps back, feeling a stinging pain in his buttocks even through the iron cage.

Is this guy trying to seduce this old man?!
Click, click!

Suddenly, a series of cracking sounds came from Wang Gan's bones, like firecrackers exploding.

His body grew taller inch by inch until he was over ten feet tall!
His skin turned a golden color, which, combined with the well-defined muscles of his upper body, made him look like a god in armor, a war god descended to earth!

Demon-Subduing Golden Body, open!

Wang Gan sighed and stretched his limbs.
Since his transformation through the Wedding Dress Divine Skill three times, as his physique has improved and his external martial arts skills have become increasingly extraordinary, his physique has become truly inhuman.

His height had grown to over two meters, which was quite inconvenient, so he learned the Bone-Shrinking Technique from the Lianhua Baojian and kept his body size around 1.8 meters.

In other words, his current form as a golden-armored giant is his complete form.

"do not be afraid."

After growing larger, Wang Gan's voice became somewhat muffled, making the house tremble.

"My growth is simply due to a more solid foundation in martial arts."

"After all, your martial arts skills are merely the result of your own gradual cultivation, and your physical bodies are inevitably weak and unstable,"

"I gradually built up my skills using the system, so it's not surprising that my martial arts foundation is more solid."

Huo Xiu's eyes widened, he was too shocked to speak. Even with his experience and composure, it was hard for him not to be afraid!
You call being two heads taller than average and having a shiny body a solid foundation in martial arts?!
And why did your top get bigger, and your bottom got bigger too?!
Huo Xiu swallowed hard, took a deep breath, and barely managed to calm himself.

Even if you've grown bigger.

Click it
Wang Gan crawled out of the enlarged cage hole and thoughtfully straightened the bent cage net.

It means they've developed the good habit of closing doors behind them.

"What did you just say?"

Wang Gan didn't quite hear clearly; now that he's grown taller, he can't hear the voices of those at the bottom anymore.

"I admit defeat!"

Huo Xiu's face turned ashen, and he had no will to resist.

"So the first story you told wasn't a lie?"

Wang Gan shook his head.

"No, I beat that woman into a mentally challenged state later."

Huo Xiu arrived in a miserable state.
"All my assets are in this building, just give me a quick death."

Wang Gan readily gave him a swift and decisive end.
Because he is kind.

To be precise, Huo Xiu is the kind of person who would rather die than live. In the original story, he would even make money off the dead, and he couldn't stand others coveting his money.

Even the entire conspiracy of the Golden Roc Dynasty was just Huo Xiu's own paranoia.

The remaining officials were either the owner of the Pearl Pavilion or the leader of the Emei Sect, both of whom had achieved great success and had no reason to covet his treasure.
