Mythology Starts with Childish Skills

Fang Duohai was indeed taken aback. What an arrogant person! Not to mention grandmasters, even great grandmasters were not in his eyes. Is he really that powerful?

Could he be a young master from a major aristocratic family, a powerful clan, or a martial arts holy land?

But looking at Lu Le's demeanor, he doesn't seem like one. At least, Fang Duohai feels that he is very different from the second-generation heirs he usually comes into contact with.

He thought of what Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) said and didn't dare to offend the person behind Lu Le. Lu Le's tone was so arrogant, so he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive. He thought to himself that he had to find out his origin and identity to avoid kicking a steel plate, which would be terrible.

"Oh, that's quite a tone! I only heard you say before that you came to Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) to train and learn the art of beast control. Tell me, what is the identity of the person behind you, that he is so arrogant!"

Lu Le glanced at Fang Duohai and didn't give him a clear answer. Instead, he retorted,

"You are not worthy to know the identity of the person behind me."

Then he added,

"But you, how did you know that Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) and Shanhua(山花: Mountain Flower) live here? After so many years of not seeing each other, you suddenly came here to propose marriage. Is it really because you want to find a good marriage for your grandson, or are you being instructed by someone else and have other purposes?

Compared to me, you should explain it to Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord)!"

His words were extremely radical. Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) couldn't help but gather his strength, ready to support Lu Le at any time to prevent him from being harmed by the furious Fang Duohai.

Shanhua(山花: Mountain Flower) didn't care. She just looked at him eagerly. Obviously, Lu Le, who was intense and full of indignation, was very much to her liking. Men, after all, are most attractive when they have a strong backbone.

Fang Duohai hadn't spoken yet, but his grandson on the side was already furious. Although he also suspected whether Lu Le's so-called big backer and background were real, they were already stepping on his face. If he didn't fight back, wouldn't he be laughed at and looked down upon?

"Lu Le, you are presumptuous! My family and Senior Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) are old acquaintances. You are just someone who came to learn skills. How dare you talk nonsense here?"

Lu Le smiled and didn't care about the other party's attitude and reaction.

"The truth becomes clearer with debate. Your impatience only shows that my suspicion is correct."

After speaking, he stopped looking at Fang's grandfather and grandson and turned his gaze to Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord), saying,

"Senior Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord), although I haven't been here for a long time to learn skills, first, I am very grateful for your teaching, and second, I am deeply in love with Shanhua(山花: Mountain Flower) and don't want her to be hurt. Therefore, I implore you to find out the truth of the matter to avoid causing disaster."

Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) pondered for a moment and said,

"Well, Brother Fang, although what this kid Lu Le said is a bit harsh, it is not without reason.

We haven't seen each other for so many years and haven't had any contact. I don't know how you are living. I have been living in seclusion and haven't revealed it to the outside world. How did you know that I was in Hengqu Mountain and even found my location so accurately?

Also, we had no fate for marriage between our children. How did you know that I have a granddaughter who is suitable for marriage and is not yet married?"

This is why he hadn't fallen out with Fang Duohai and eagerly wanted to find the truth from him.

It was also why Lu Le had persuaded him not to fall out for the time being, to treat them with courtesy, and to entertain them.

Otherwise, according to Shanjun's(山君: Mountain Lord) character and temperament, he would have swept them away long ago.

The friendship from many years ago was indeed friendship, and Fang Duohai was indeed worthy of making friends with back then.

But now, times have changed, and everything is constantly changing. Fang Duohai is no longer worthy of being his friend.

Fang Duohai didn't know what he was thinking, but his expression was much more serious. The look in his eyes towards Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) also revealed a sense of superficial and ashamed, saying,

"Brother Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord), the source of my information about you is confidential, and I cannot say. It is normal for you to have doubts about this, but I can guarantee that I am here to propose marriage with all my heart, to fulfill the promise of the past.

Moreover, I am also sincerely seeking a generous and decent wife for my grandson."

Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) smiled, but his eyes were extremely firm. His seemingly amiable face now showed a rare dignified appearance.

"Fang Duohai, Brother Fang, do you really think that after so many years of living in seclusion in the mountains, not asking about worldly affairs, I am really indifferent to everything in the world?

Or do you think that I was depressed because of the misfortune of my relatives and would be stupidly fooled by a few words?

We drank and fought against the enemy together back then, which was indeed very enjoyable, but times have changed, and we are both old now. Let's not treat me as an old friend anymore."

Shanjun's(山君: Mountain Lord) words directly tore apart the pretense between the two. What friends and what betrothal in childhood are all nonsense.

Fang Duohai sighed.

"Yes, I haven't looked for you for so many years. How could I suddenly get your message?

But, with your intelligence, can't you guess who you have been in contact with these years and who you have revealed your whereabouts to?

And I can honestly tell you that that person is just a pawn, a link in the chain, of the forces behind me.

So, it's not that I don't want to say it, it's not that I don't want to be honest, but if I really reveal the secret, it's not just me who will die, but my entire Fang family will be buried with me.

Brother Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord), I am indeed here to propose marriage on orders, but this is also a mutually beneficial matter. Why are you so resistant?"

Before Shanjun(山君: Mountain Lord) could speak, Lu Le had already taken over the conversation, quite curiously saying,

"Oh, according to Senior Fang, the forces you are in are extremely huge, then I have a question, is their master comparable to the famous Northern Meng Dragon King in China today?

Is their power comparable to the Lingwu Meng family and the Nan'an Meng family?"

Lu Le was really a little curious about which side was behind Fang Duohai, which powerful figure.

The northern land is rich in resources and treasures, with a vast area and a prosperous population. In fact, there are really many forces, like stars in the sky, densely packed, small sects, small gangs, and various families, underworld, evil forces, and even top forces, etc.

Being able to recruit masters at the grandmaster level should not be a small force, and listening to Fang Duohai's boasting, it is simply incredibly powerful.

Lu Le now wanted to know whether the Meng family knew about such a powerful force in the north.

Or was Fang Duohai just bluffing, deliberately using some information gaps to suppress Shanjun's(山君: Mountain Lord) mentality.

After all, Lu Le was the chief steward of the Meng family, and he knew a lot of secret information. There was no reason for him to know nothing about such a force.

Sure enough, when Lu Le asked this question, Fang Duohai's expression suddenly became very ugly. Compared to Meng Zhao, were they worthy?
