High Martial Arts Start with Ant Talent Fusion

Seeing Cao Gaochang leave, Fang Fan also breathed a sigh of relief.

But he also learned the identity of the old man in front of him: Gu Ming, the city lord of Jianghai City.

"Fang Fan greets the City Lord!"

The respectful greeting jolted the crowd behind him awake, and they all bowed to the figure before them.

They, as martial artists, neither worship heaven nor earth, but the old man before them was worthy of their devotion. It was because of him that they had Jianghai City and the life they had now.

The old man single-handedly lifted up the entire Jianghai City.

It suppressed the rivers and seas, stopping countless demonic beasts from venturing into the wilderness.

"Uh-huh."

Gu Ming smiled slightly; this was also the reason why he wanted to protect Jianghai City.

"Kid, what's your decision?"

"Being my apprentice is a great deal. You can come and go as you please in Jianghai City, and no one but me will dare to provoke you."

"And most importantly, there are resources, endless resources, all flowing to you."

"Of course, once you become my apprentice, all my treasured possessions will be yours."

"Aren't you tempted?"

At this moment, Gu Ming no longer had the unfathomable demeanor he had before. Instead, he resembled a cunning old man who was swindling and deceiving, luring the mantis step by step.

"Thank you for your kindness, Lord City Lord, but everything still depends on the young master."

The mantis said cautiously.

"profound?"

"Young Master?"

Gu Ming was taken aback. Did the young master mean the inconspicuous boy behind him?

The young man in blue nodded.

After receiving confirmation, Gu Ming looked at Fang Fan, his gaze also scrutinizing Fang Fan.

"interesting."

"I didn't expect you, young master, to be so extraordinary."

With just one glance, Gu Ming could see Fang Fan's physical condition clearly. Despite his chaotic meridians and lack of martial arts talent, his strength had already reached the Grandmaster level.

He could tell that the boy had been seriously injured before, but for some reason he had recovered.

It seems that the man's talent was inherited by his descendants.

not simple!

Gu Ming had already figured everything out before he arrived. He was the true lord of Jianghai City, and there was nothing in the entire city that he wanted to know that could be kept from him.

When he heard the news, he was surprised for a moment. He never expected that the descendant of King Wu, who died decades ago, was in his Jianghai City.

King Wu's talent at the time was astonishing: an extremely abnormal healing ability. No matter how much damage he suffered, he could heal completely in an instant.

It even reached the point where he could be reborn from a drop of blood, but even such a person eventually died.

This matter has become a major taboo among humans, and no one is allowed to talk about it.

After all, this is not a respectable matter!

"Young man of the Fang family, if one day our human race faces a life-or-death crisis, what will you do?"

Gu Ming suddenly asked another question, which startled Fang Fan, but seeing his serious expression, he answered respectfully.

"I am a son of humanity, and I will do everything in my power to protect my human race."

"Even if it costs you your life?"

"I'm not afraid to risk my life!"

Fang Fan's firm voice rang out, while Gu Ming's eyes never left Fang Fan, and finally he let out a long laugh.

"Alright, kid, remember what you said today."

"If you still had the talent, I would have taken you as my apprentice, but now, following me around won't do you any good for your strength."

"The sheer amount of competition alone is enough to exhaust you."

He asked that question because he was afraid that if the Fang family boy knew the truth about that matter, he might do something that would harm the human race.

After all, it was the human race that wronged the Fang family in that matter.

Gu Ming secretly laughed at himself, thinking that he was getting more and more confused as he got older. The Fang family boy had lost his talent, so how could he have grown to the point of influencing the human race?

"Hand that kid over to me, and I can do you a favor."

"Of course, this is a decision I made myself; you can place your bet."

"I bet you're worth handing over that kid for what I did for you."

"Taking that kid as my apprentice isn't harming him; on the contrary, it will help him grow in the shortest amount of time. Keeping him by your side will only slow him down..."

Gu Ming's words silenced Fang Fan, and Gu Ming remained silent, simply watching quietly.

King Wu has been dead for so many years, yet his influence continues to this day, and he has even been able to train such an excellent guard for his descendants.

Gu Ming mistook the young man in blue for a spy left behind by King Wu.

"A golden age, a time when geniuses emerge in great numbers!"

"But this means that an even more terrifying darkness is coming."

The appearance of this young man in blue was a pleasant surprise for him.

"Alright, I agree to the city lord's request."

"Let the square knife follow behind you."

Fang Dao was the name Fang Fan gave to the mantis.

"Haha, your decision is absolutely right."

"Fang Dao, you have three days to settle your affairs after death, and then come with me to cultivate!"

"This matter is now closed. No one is allowed to start any further disputes. Anyone who violates this rule will be executed!"

Gu Ming smiled, leaped up, leaving behind this magnificent statement, and then disappeared.

The last sentence was spoken by Fang Fan, by Fang Dao, and also to everyone outside the circle.

"Young Master..."

The mantis, also known as Fangdao, was puzzled. He was now the most powerful subordinate by his master's side. How could his master's safety be guaranteed if he was not around?

"It's alright, becoming the city lord's apprentice might be a good idea."

Fang Fan smiled slightly. His decision was not made on a whim, but after careful consideration.

He had already guessed what the city lord had promised.

As long as I stay in Jianghai City, I shouldn't have to worry about that force's threat anymore.

Now that Fang Dao is out in the open, blocking most of the view, while Nirvana is in the shadows, I can freely cultivate my strength within this Wind and Fire Martial Arts Hall.

Besides, if he can raise one Fangdao, is it difficult to raise a second or a third?

Fang Dao immediately understood his master's thoughts, and without saying a word, he gripped the two swords with a determined look in his eyes.

You all thought Fang Dao was my trump card, but who knew that given enough time, my trump card would be beyond your imagination.

A golden age?

Watch how I, Fang Fan, carve out my own path in this golden age!

After leaving the Wind and Fire Martial Arts Hall, Gu Ming arrived in the sky and looked down at the harmonious scene of the human race living in peace and prosperity. He laughed heartily.

He would not allow any monsters to disrupt this.

"I never expected that I, Gu Ming, could discover such a genius."

"Jiang Haicheng is saved."

"No matter what, I will persevere until he grows up."

"I saw him slay the demon king."

Gu Ming initially thought it was a foreign king who had come to Jianghai City, but he never expected it to be a human prodigy who had comprehended the same sword intent as that foreign king.

This must be what is meant by the chosen ones, born in the right time!

"It's been a long time since I've been to Shanhai City. Now, for the sake of the Fang family's young master, I should make a trip there."

Gu Ming then shone with golden light and disappeared into the air.
