Yang Guo travels back in time to become Duan Yu, a different kind of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

"Afterwards, what to do with the baby was quite a dilemma. We had wronged his parents and could not take his life. But if we were to raise him, the Khitans were our mortal enemies, and all three of us thought of the saying 'raising a tiger will bring trouble'."

"Later, the leader took one hundred taels of silver and gave it to the farmer's family, asking them to raise the baby. He also told the farmer and his wife to acknowledge the Khitan baby as their parents and that the baby must never be told about the adoption after it grew up."

"The farming couple had no children of their own, and they happily agreed. They had no idea that the baby was of Khitan blood. Before we took the child to Shaoshi Mountain, we had already changed him into Han Chinese clothes along the way. The people of the Song Dynasty hated the Khitans to the bone, and if they saw the child dressed in Khitan attire, they would surely harm him..."

Hearing this, Qiao Feng had already guessed most of what was going on. His voice trembled as he asked, "Master Zhiguang, that...that farmer from the foot of Shaoshi Mountain, what...what's his surname?"

Zhiguang said, "Since you've already guessed, I don't need to hide it from you. That farmer's surname is Qiao, and his given name is Sanhuai."

Qiao Feng shouted, "No, no! You're talking nonsense, fabricating this gibberish to frame me. I am a Han Chinese, how could I be a Khitan barbarian? I...I...Sanhuai Gong is my own father, if you keep talking nonsense..."

Suddenly, he spread his arms and lunged at Zhiguang.

Shan Zheng and Elder Xu cried out in unison, "No! Chief Qiao, Master Zhiguang is revered by everyone in the martial world. You mustn't harm his life!"

They tried to step forward to protect Master Zhiguang. But Qiao Feng was incredibly fast, and he wouldn't allow them to help. In a flash, he was in front of Zhiguang and reached out to grab him. Everyone could see that Qiao Feng was extremely angry, and Master Zhiguang's life was in danger.

Suddenly, Zhiguang felt a powerful internal force approaching, and he was sent flying diagonally. At the same time, Qiao Feng saw a white shadow flash before his eyes, and his outstretched palms were blocked.

Startled, his anger intensified, and without considering what was happening ahead, he slammed his palms forward five times in quick succession. Five loud sounds were heard, and all five palms were blocked.

Qiao Feng was greatly surprised. He knew that although the five palms he struck in his rage contained only about 50 or 60% of his internal energy, he had used all his strength to strike them. Who in the martial arts world today could so easily withstand them all?

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be none other than Yang Guo.

Before Qiao Feng could even ask, Yang Guo advised him, "Brother, stay calm! Don't act rashly and fall into the enemy's trap!"

Turning to face the crowd, Yang Guo's ordinary face instantly turned murderous as he coldly said, "It seems the enemy has gone to great lengths to deal with you. First, they falsely accused you of colluding with the Murong family to kill Deputy Chief Ma and instigate a rebellion. Now they have found some witnesses and evidence to accuse you of being a Liao person. If you act impulsively and harm this monk Zhiguang, all the martial arts masters here will have a pretext to swarm you and attack you en masse."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Feng gradually regained his composure, but his heart was filled with resentment and his blood boiled. He shouted, "Yes, yes. But they... they... want to remove me from my position as leader, fine, I'll just hand it over. Why fabricate these words to frame me? What... what wrong have I, Qiao Feng, done that they are so relentlessly pressuring me?"

In terms of experience in the martial world, Yang Guo was no less experienced than Qiao Feng at this time. He could clearly see that today's setup was prepared for Qiao Feng, and that the conspiracy was far from over. There were definitely more tricks up their sleeves. All the people present, such as Tan Gong, Tan Po, Zhao Qiansun, Shan Zheng, and even Master Zhiguang, could be accomplices hired by the enemy, who could join forces to attack at any time and threaten Qiao Feng's life.

A wise man does not stand under a dangerous wall. Yang Guo made up his mind to first find a way to escort Qiao Feng away from here, and then make other plans.

As for these scheming and despicable people in front of us, we'll have plenty of time to slowly devour them later.

Yang Guo wanted to leave, but Qiao Feng, fixated on his past, refused to go. He walked up to the monk Zhiguang, carefully looked at his face, and seeing his calm expression, devoid of any pretense or cunning, asked, "What happened next?"

Later, when Qiao Feng was seven years old, Master Xuanku of Shaolin Temple took him as his disciple and taught him martial arts. At the age of sixteen, Qiao Feng joined the Beggars' Clan and became the disciple of Chief Wang. At first, Chief Wang was very wary of Qiao Feng, but later Qiao Feng's martial arts skills became higher and higher, and his reputation grew. Both inside and outside the clan, everyone believed that Qiao Feng would be the next chief.

Because Qiao Feng was a Khitan, Chief Wang tested him with three major questions and made him perform seven great deeds before appointing him as the leader of the Beggars' Clan.

Yang Guo had witnessed the Beggars' Sect leader passing on his position. Back then, when Huang Rong passed the leadership to Lu Youjiao, Yang Guo, Guo Fu, and the two Wu brothers hid to the side. Later, the leadership passed to Yelü Qi. Whether it was Lu Youjiao or Yelü Qi, their ascension to the position was much easier than that of Brother Qiao.

Right, Yang Guo suddenly remembered that Yelü Qi was a true member of the Khitan royal family. If Brother Qiao really was a Khitan, then the position of Beggar Clan leader would have come full circle and returned to the Khitan.

Haha, this is really interesting.

Thinking of this, Yang Guo couldn't help but laugh out loud again.

At this moment, Elder Xu had already taken out the secret letter written by the leader to Chief Wang, and was about to hand it to Qiao Feng for his perusal. Hearing Yang Guo laugh, he said displeasedly, "Young Master Duan, why are you laughing again?"

Yang Guo replied seriously, "As the saying goes, 'If you doubt someone, don't use them; if you use someone, don't doubt them.' Your former leader not only wanted to cultivate my elder brother into a hero but also wanted to pass the leadership to him. 'Big Brother' isn't even a member of the Beggars' Sect, so how could he be the one giving orders?"

Zhiguang said, "Let me see if it is truly the original letter."

He took the letter, read it over, and said, "Not bad, it is indeed the leader's handwriting."

With a slight effort of his left hand, he tore off the signature at the end of the letter, put it in his mouth, and swallowed it with a flick of his tongue.

When Zhiguang tore up the letter, he first took a few steps toward the fire, distancing himself from Qiao Feng, and then brought the letter to his eyes. It seemed that he couldn't see it clearly because of the insufficient light, so he tore the letter into his mouth. The letter was only an inch away from his lips.

Qiao Feng and Yang Guo never expected that this highly respected old monk would use such a cunning trick. The two of them struck out with their palms and immediately snatched the letter, but they were a step too late. The signature at the end of the letter had already been swallowed by him.

Qiao Feng slapped open Zhiguang's pressure point with a palm strike and roared, "You... what are you doing?"

Zhiguang smiled slightly and said, "Chief Qiao, now that you know your background, you must be determined to avenge the murder of your father and mother. Chief Wang is already dead, so there's no need to say anything more."

"I don't want you to know the name of this leader. I participated in the ambush of your father and mother years ago; I'm willing to bear all the sins myself. Kill me or torture me, go ahead and do it."

Seeing Zhao Qiansun with his lowered brows and compassionate yet solemn expression, Qiao Feng, though filled with grief and indignation, couldn't help but feel a deep respect. He said, "Whether it's true or false, I don't know yet. Even if I were to kill you, there's no rush." ​​As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Zhao Qiansun.

Zhao Qiansun shrugged, seemingly nonchalant, and said, "That's right, I'm in too. I'll take a share of this debt. You can do it whenever you want."
