Martial Arts Crossover: Infiltrating a Girls' Chat Group at the Start

Inviting the Moon: I'm just bullying you, what are you going to do about it?

Zhao Min coughed up blood and angrily shut down the chat group, saying, "I'm so angry!"

Huang Rong: Hahaha, well said. @穿林竹叶, I'm currently on Peach Blossom Island. My mother is about to give birth, and you can't help me now. I'll ask you for help again when I leave Peach Blossom Island and go to the mainland.

You Ruo: Can you rescue me from the Tianxia Society? I'm so annoyed with my dad. Today he even found a doctor for me, saying I have a health problem. He suspects I'm mentally ill. @穿林竹叶

Huang Rong: Hahaha, is there any possibility that your father wasn't wrong?

Huang Rong didn't specifically tag You Ruo, but her mockery was very clear.

You Ruo was furious. She yelled in the room and then angrily tagged Huang Rong.

You Ruo: Huang Rong, do you dare to come and fight the World Society?

Huang Rong: I wouldn't dare, my father probably can't beat your father.

Chuan Lin Zhu Ye (IP Gusu): Well, I can't beat your father, Xiong Ba, either, so I can't save @You Ruo.

You Ruo: Never mind, come save me when you break through to the peak. @Chuanlin Zhuye

You Ruo: @Huang Rong, you're all talk, but considering your young age, I'll let it slide.

Immediately afterwards, You Ruo logged off, her avatar went dark, preventing Huang Rong from continuing to attack.

Seeing this, Huang Rong could only keep quiet.

The World Society, thinking that Huang Rong had been wronged once, You Ruo was so happy that she laughed out loud.

Neither Feng Heng nor Ning Zhongze made any demands on Lin Zhu.

Then Wang Yuyan appeared.

Wang Yuyan: You're in Suzhou, could you come to Mantuo Manor and pick me up? I heard someone in Wuxi is trying to get back at my cousin, I want to go see @穿林竹叶

Through the Bamboo Leaves (IP Suzhou): This...

Huang Rong: No way, no way, no one would go back on their word, right?

Lin Zhu never expected Huang Rong to be so sarcastic; it was infuriating.

Chuan Lin Zhu Ye (IP Gusu): Okay, I promise you, but don't be too surprised when you see me tomorrow @Wang Yuyan

Wow, now most people in the group are starting to get curious.

Wang Yuyan: That's great! I'll be waiting for you tomorrow. @穿林竹叶

Chuanlin Zhuye (IP Gusu): Just call me Linzhu.

[Ding, Lin Zhu has revealed his identity. Reward: Half a year's cultivation.]

Since we're meeting tomorrow anyway, there's no need to hide my identity.

Huang Rong: Wow, you two are meeting tomorrow! I can't wait! @Lin Zhu, @Wang Yuyan

Wang Yuyan was also excited about meeting her group members the next day, and then she couldn't sleep.

As for Lin Zhu, he began absorbing the cultivation he had gained over the past six months.

Yesterday, after breaking through to the Grandmaster level, the remaining six years of cultivation will propel him to the mid-stage of the Grandmaster level. The current six months of cultivation will only make his power slightly deeper.

Before we knew it, it was time for the morning star to shine.

After a night of cultivation, he not only didn't feel tired, but was actually very energetic. He then took out the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) and started studying it.

Lingbo Weibu and Tianshan Zhemei Shou have something in common, as they are both martial arts of the Xiaoyao Sect, based on the concept of Tao and containing the numerology of the I Ching.

Therefore, he found it very easy to get started learning.

Within the small guest room, countless afterimages of him appeared, both agile and swift.

With each step he took out one of the sixty-four hexagrams, coordinating with his breathing, the Mingyu True Essence within his body circulated for one cycle, and his footwork became more proficient.

However, if used against an enemy, it will consume one's internal energy.

This is not only an exquisite movement technique, but also a superb lightness skill, and a mysterious method of internal energy cultivation. It has three uses in one method, which is quite amazing.

Lin Zhu continued to move around the room using the Lingbo Weibu technique, and soon he mastered it to a high level.

This is also thanks to over eighty years of experience in practicing the Tianshan Plum Blossom Hand technique, which allows one to apply knowledge to other situations.

Now, whether using the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique) to fight enemies or travel, he can do it with ease.

The first rays of sunlight in the morning shone into the courtyard.

Lin Zhu finished his cultivation, pushed open the door, and absorbed the first wisp of pure yang purple energy in the world.

Although Mingyu Gong's attributes are neutral and balanced, its outward manifestations tend to be yin and gentle, so it needs to be neutralized with pure yang purple qi.

As Lin Zhu inhaled this wisp of pure yang purple energy, he felt warm all over and exceptionally comfortable.

As the saying goes, yin cannot produce life alone, and yang cannot grow alone; the combination of yin and yang is the way of the universe.

A sudden realization dawned on him.

'Perhaps I should find a pure Yang cultivation technique to practice.'

At this moment, Duan Yu opened the door and said, "Brother Lin, good morning!"

Lin Zhu turned around and greeted, "Good morning, Brother Duan!"

A short while later, Tang Bohu came over to greet them personally.

After breakfast, the three of them left the Tang residence together and headed west towards the shore of Taihu Lake.

Lin Zhu asked, "Brother Tang, you are a local of Suzhou, do you know how to get to Mantuo Villa?"

"Mantuo Manor, that's the Wang family's territory. Does Brother Lin have any acquaintances there?" Tang Bohu asked in surprise.

Lin Zhu nodded and said, "I do have a close friend." But in fact, he and Wang Yuyan had never met.

Tang Bohu thought to himself, 'Brother Lin's martial arts are superb; I suppose he won't end up as fertilizer.'

He nodded and said, "Then let's go there on the way. I actually want to visit Mantuo Manor as well. Speaking of which, in Tianji Tower, the three of them, Tianji Elder, Jianghu Baixiaosheng, and Wulin Wanshitong, not only have a list of the strongest people in the world, but also a list of the most beautiful women in the world. Wang Yuyan of Mantuo Manor is on that list."

Duan Yu asked in surprise, "Has the Heavenly Mystery Tower ranking been updated again?"

Tang Bohu said, "Just half a month ago, the news shouldn't have reached Dali yet."

Lin Zhu asked curiously, "Then, Brother Tang, do you know who the most beautiful woman in the world is?"

"As the saying goes, 'The moon shines brightly in the deep palace, Zhang San Niang is beautiful outside, the two beauties in the ancient tomb are peerless, and the Buddha and Demon Saintess is stunning.' Even the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion cannot rank these beauties first, second, or third, and can only place them on equal footing."

Tang Bohu said this.

Duan Yu nodded, indicating that it made sense.

Lin Zhu thought about it and agreed, since everyone has different aesthetic tastes.

The three of them talked while admiring the scenery of Taihu Lake.

After about an hour of sailing, an island in the distance became clearly visible.

Chapter 16 Beating Up Bao Butong

Tang Bohu pointed to the island and said, "The Mantuo Manor is just ahead."

The boatman, an old man, said, "Three gentlemen, you wish to go to Mantuo Manor, but this old man dares not dock!"

Duan Yu asked in surprise, "You dare not go ashore? Why is that?"

The boatman said, "Sir, you may not know this, but if an ordinary person falls into the hands of the people of Mantuo Manor, they will be captured and used as fertilizer."

Lin Zhu smiled and said, "Old man, it's alright. We have relatives from Mantuo Manor here."

“Even if you have relatives, it won’t work.” The boatman said, “I can only stop a hundred feet away from Mantuo Manor at most. You can go there yourself then.”

Lin Zhu said, "Alright, but boatman, you'll have to wait for us a bit."

Duan Yu, however, felt a little guilty. "Brother Lin, are we really going? Is the host really that cruel?"

Tang Bohu said, "That's how ruthless she is, who in the whole of Suzhou doesn't know? However, that Madam Wang is also as beautiful as a fairy. It's a pity she's already married, otherwise she would definitely be on the list of beauties."

Soon, the awning boat sailed to a distance of a hundred feet from Mantuo Villa.

Duan Yu asked, "How do we get there?"

Lin Zhu looked at Tang Bohu, "Brother Tang, are you able to go over there?"

Tang Bohu confidently replied, "A piece of cake."

Lin Zhu turned to Duan Yu and said, "Brother Duan, just watch my steps later."

Duan Yu paused for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay!"

Lin Zhu smiled mysteriously, then rose into the air, using the Lingbo Weibu technique to tread on the water's surface like a dragonfly skimming the water.

The distance of a hundred feet was covered by only a dozen or so dips in the water before reaching the shore.

"What amazing lightness skill!" Tang Bohu couldn't help but exclaim.

Duan Yu thought to himself, 'So this is how the Lingbo Weibu (Lingbo Steps) is used. Brother Lin's footwork is much more skillful than mine.'

Tang Bohu patted Duan Yu on the shoulder and asked, "Brother Duan, shall we go first or shall we go first?"

Duan Yu said, "How about I go first?"

"Please!" Tang Bohu waved his hand in greeting.

Duan Yu straightened his face, activated the innate true energy that was about to condense into true essence within his body, recalled Lin Zhu's movements in his mind, and began to move with the Lingbo Weibu (a martial arts technique).

However, compared to Lin Zhu, Duan Yu's movements were not as smooth.

Although they successfully reached the shore, their feet were already wet.

Seeing this, Tang Bohu felt a surge of competitive spirit and shouted, "Here I come!"

His lightness skill was also exceptional, allowing him to cross water on flat ground, but his skill was weaker than Lin Zhu's. Like Duan Yu, his feet got wet, but not completely soaked.

Seeing that Lin Zhu's shoes were dry, he couldn't help but praise, "Brother Lin, you have excellent lightness skills."

"You flatter me." Lin Zhu cupped his hands in greeting, then his ears twitched and he said, "Someone's coming."

A group of people walked toward the dock in the distance: a man, two women, and a fierce-looking old woman.

One of the men, with a rugged appearance, caught a glimpse of Lin Zhu and his two companions out of the corner of his eye.
