One person: I am Li Buren, I cannot bear to do anything!

The stalemate lasted for a full half minute. Li Buren remained as steady as Mount Tai, not moving an inch, as if he were in a meditative state.

Wang Ai's expression remained unchanged throughout the entire process.

"I suppose the old master's tea is more delicious than my Qimen black tea. I'll ask him for some tea leaves another day."

His face was all smiles, revealing neither his joy nor anger.

"Mr. Wang, please speak frankly. We will respond to your requests. Going around in circles is pointless."

Wang Ai nodded.

"Master Li is indeed straightforward, so I will also speak frankly without beating around the bush."

"On behalf of the Wang family, I would like to invite Master Li to be our guest."

Li Buren raised an eyebrow.

"A guest of honor?"

Wang Ai still had a big smile on her face.

"Others may not know, but we have a deep impression of Master Li."

"Master Li is of superior talent and temperament, and he usually keeps a low profile and does not show off his abilities."

"If we can invite Master Li to join our tutelage, our humble Wang family will do everything in our power to help him."

Li couldn't bear it, so he tapped the table with his index finger but didn't say anything.

Wang Ai's smile slowly faded.

"It seems Master Li still has some reservations about my Wang Bing. Young man, you mustn't neglect your manners!"

Wang Ai raised her voice on the last sentence.

"Grandson, come out and apologize to Master Li."

Wang Cong stepped out from behind, his eyes filled with undisguised resentment, staring intently at Li Buren like a jackal.

Wang Ai saw it, but didn't say anything; instead, she smiled coldly.

Li couldn't help but laugh.

"Your great-grandfather said, young people, you must not neglect manners."

"Didn't you hear me?"

The oppressive aura appeared instantly, and the invisible force caused Wang Bing's face to turn deathly pale. He, who was still recovering from his injuries, actually took two steps back and almost lost his balance and fell.

He was supported by a hand from behind.

"Young master, be careful, your injuries haven't healed yet."

The newcomer adjusted his glasses and reached out his hand to Li Buren.

"Master Li is indeed as the patriarch said, a man of great talent."

"I've long wanted to learn a thing or two from Master Li. I'm from the Wang family..."

Li couldn't bear to step forward.

"You don't need to tell me your name, I won't remember it."

"Fight if you want."

The Wang family retainer was clearly taken aback, and anger welled up between his brows.

"Please enlighten me!"

The newcomer was clearly a master of external martial arts, and his Qi was even attached to his fists and feet, so the power of his physical skills was self-evident.

Wang Ai slowly stroked his beard.

"Sending him out to deal with this arrogant Taoist priest is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut."

"He was able to hold his own against established masters, and he was ruthless in his attacks. His strength and combat experience were beyond the reach of a mere Taoist priest."

The old man affectionately patted Wang Bing's head.

"But Grandpa promised to avenge you, and he will definitely do it."

"Zhang Lingyu has the support of the Celestial Master and Longhu Mountain. It's not convenient to take action here now. Grandpa will think of a way when we get back."

"As for those two Taoist priests from Wudang Mountain? Heh, Wudang Mountain has been weak for a long time, how dare these two little Taoists be so arrogant?"

"I'd like to see if Wudang has the ability to come knocking on our door and demand an explanation!"

Wang Ai was indeed a seasoned veteran, but unfortunately, while he guessed correctly, he only guessed half of it.

That's definitely overkill.

Unfortunately, Niu Dao seems to be the very person he was referring to.

Please enlighten me.

Li Buren stood there, his collar not even wrinkled.

The man who had just been there, with his strong, muscular physique and clearly a master of Qi cultivation, was now lying on the ground groaning.

Li swiftly and decisively twisted off one of his arms and one of his legs.

He turned directly to Wang Ai.

"Please don't be offended, Mr. Wang. I have some things to attend to and need to visit my junior brother."

"If any seniors wish to challenge me to a duel, they are welcome to come to Wudang Mountain to find me, and I will gladly oblige."

Wang Ai gave a forced smile.

"Why don't we invite your junior brother to the Wang family for a chat? Our Wang family will certainly treat him with the utmost hospitality."

For the first time, Li Buren's expression changed, and a dangerous glint flashed in his eyes.

He met Wang Ai’s malice head-on, and retaliated with the same malice.

"My junior brother? Mr. Wang, you may not know this, but I have a strange illness."

"I usually can't eat more than three bowls of rice, but when I'm with my junior brother, my appetite increases."

"I'm afraid if we, the two of us, were to come, our appetites would be too big for the Wang family to handle..."

Wang Ai chuckled and waved.

"Then we won't keep the Taoist priest any longer. Wang Bing, see him out!"

Without stopping, Li strode off and headed down the mountain.

After he left, the room remained deathly silent.

Wang Bing stood at the door, watching Li Buren leave, and began to smash things.

Several members of the Wang family tried to stop him, but he still fell and smashed to the ground, making a loud crashing noise.

Wang Ai sat upright in the center, her expression unreadable.

"Wudang, Li cannot bear it..."

"Okay, very good..."

...

The next morning arrived quickly.

The battle between Zhang Chulan and Zhang Lingyu is also the final battle of this year's Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.

It is also the final hurdle in determining the successor to the Celestial Master.

"Defeat Junior Uncle Bilian! We'll definitely crush this shameless bastard!"

Such words were echoing repeatedly on Longhu Mountain, never ceasing.

The match began quickly.

Surprisingly, Zhang Chulan and Zhang Lingyu fought to a draw when they were truly serious and ready to fight head-on.

Even Zhang Lingyu had to admit that this progress was impressive and acknowledged that he indeed possessed the qualities of a Celestial Master.

At this moment, Li Buren, who should have been at the foot of the mountain, appeared next to Feng Zhenghao and Feng Xingtong.

"Father, are you saying this is Zhang Chulan who hasn't cultivated for ten years??"

"So, the person we actually lost to was just a seven or eight-year-old Zhang Chulan??"

Before Feng Zhenghao could speak, Li Buren suddenly popped his head out.

"No, that's not true. Zhang Chulan has grown a lot taller in the past ten years. As for his progress in cultivation..."

"If you were monitored for ten years, I believe you would know what that feels like."

Feng Xingtong turned her head and immediately showed a look of surprise on her face.

"Master Li!"

In the previous match with Wang Bing, it was Li Buren who disregarded the rules and forcibly intervened to stop Wang Bing.

Otherwise, Feng Xingtong would have been seriously injured.

It was precisely because of this that Feng Xingtong and Feng Zhenghao were both very grateful to Li Buren.

Feng Zhenghao patted Feng Xingtong's head, gesturing for him to go to the side.

Feng Xingtong was also sensible and cleverly walked to the side, leaving Feng Zhenghao and Li Buren behind.

"Master Li, thank you so much for Xing Tong's matter..."

"President Feng, you're too kind. It was just a small favor."

Feng Zhenghao pushed up his glasses and looked into the distance.

"Wang Ai, did he contact you?"

"Yes."

Did he make things difficult for you?

"No, they wanted to recruit me as a retainer, but I refused."

Feng Zhenghao nodded.

"Given his personality, he will surely hold a grudge against you, Master Li. You should be careful."

Li couldn't bear to shake his head.

"With Wudang Mountain right there, would the Wang family dare to make a move?"

"As for me, I am all alone. If he really wants to deal with me, he should be careful of the entire Wang family."
