Huang Rong turned her gaze to Ji Boying, her eyes searching.

"That Ouyang Ke is no good, and Ouyang Feng is known as the Western Venom, so he is naturally a treacherous and vicious fellow."

"I've only heard that the Prenatal Skill combined with the One Yang Finger Divine Skill counters Ouyang Feng's Toad Style. I wonder if Ouyang Feng dares to go? Whether he goes or not is perfectly reasonable. If Ouyang Feng does it, then he's doing it to weaken Emperor Duan's strength and make himself lose this nemesis. If he doesn't go, it means he's being cautious, which is also reasonable."

As Huang Rong analyzed the situation, she observed Ji Boying's reaction, hoping to find the answer.

"This was naturally not done by Ouyang Feng. Although Ouyang Feng has the spirit of a grandmaster, he is ruthless and sometimes has a bottom line, and sometimes he has no bottom line. It is normal to suspect him."

Ji Boying said.

"But Ouyang Feng did not do this. In fact, Ouyang Feng was planning to obtain the Nine Yin Manual and was thinking about how to deal with Wang Chongyang at the time."

"That's strange. I heard from Elder Qi that the Five Greats Seventh Master the only masters in the world. If it wasn't the Five Greats who did it, who would bother to exhaust Duan Zhixing's strength?"

Huang Rong didn't understand.

Ji Boying said, "This person is far away, yet right before our eyes."

"Ah! It's you!"

Ying Gu gasped in surprise, her face filled with disbelief.

Ji Boying rolled his eyes, casually waved his sleeve, and used his internal force to send Ying Gu tumbling over.

"What an idiot."

"I'm not talking about myself, I'm talking about the Iron Palm Gang Clan!"

Having seen through this illusion, Huang Rong suddenly understood.

No wonder Ying Gu suspected Ji Boying just now.

Given that Ji Boying's martial arts skills are unparalleled, it's not impossible for him to overpower the Five Greats, weaken Duan Zhixing, and seize the title of the world's number one.

As for looking so young, maybe it's just because they have a baby face.

Ying Gu herself is not young, but she has wrinkles on her head because of the hardships of life, and the lower half of her face is still beautiful.

Not to mention a master like Ji Boying, who might have achieved mastery of Qi cultivation, making his face appear youthful.

He looks like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, but he might actually be fifty or sixty.

"Even the old master Seventh Master Gong once praised the Iron Palm Gang's Iron Sand Palm. Although it is not as fierce as the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms, its power is still quite great, and its moves are quite exquisite."

Huang Rong said.

"That's right. Below the Five Greats of the Martial World, we must mention Qiu Qianren, the Iron Palm Water Strider Sect Leader Qiu."

Ji Boying said, "In terms of strength, Qiu Qianren is not much worse, but he lacks a bit of talent and courage. He was invited to the first Mount Hua Sword Conference, but he thought he was no match for Wang Chongyang and the others, so he continued to cultivate in seclusion."

"This shows that he was also someone who was very obsessed with being the best in the world."

"Therefore, he was worried that Duan Zhixing's skill would improve after exchanging martial arts with Wang Chongyang, and he would not be a match for him. That's why he came up with this unique move to damage Duan Zhixing's skill."

"Duan Zhixing saw through this back then. He was kind-hearted after all. He forcibly suppressed his obsession with becoming the best in the world and was prepared to give up the Mount Hua Sword Conference. He decided to sacrifice his internal energy to save people. Unfortunately, he was pricked by that bellyband at the last minute and became jealous and angry."

Now the truth is out.

Ying Gu finally learned who the real murderer of her son was.

He was so enraged that he immediately wanted to rush to the Iron Palm Gang to seek revenge on Qiu Qianren.

It was like searching high and low without finding it; unexpectedly, the real enemy was right beside him.

However, the furious Ying Gu was stopped by Ji Boying without any mercy.

"You'd better behave yourself. I don't know where you get your confidence from with your skills. Duan Zhixing and Zhou Botong have spoiled you rotten."

Ji Boying's words were merciless, but Ying Gu dared not provoke him.

"You know Zhou Botong's personality. Even if I teach you martial arts in the future, it won't be easy for you to master it. Just obey my orders and don't cause me any trouble. I guarantee that Zhou Botong won't escape your grasp."

Zhou Botong was Ji Boying's nominal senior uncle, and also the senior uncle of Daoist Priest Ma others.

Seeing Ji Boying always calling him by his name and saying things like he couldn't escape his grasp made Guo Jing feel awkward. He looked embarrassed, winked, and was very uncomfortable, scratching his earlobe, not knowing what to do.

"If you honestly learn my internal skills, you can be considered my disciple. Once you've taken good care of your health, we'll invite some renowned doctors to examine you. Also, avoid extreme joy or anger that could harm your body. Try to change your capricious nature and calm your mind so that your five vital energies can be balanced and flow smoothly."

"You and Zhou Botong are not too old yet, and Zhou Botong has mastered martial arts, practicing the orthodox Quanzhen Internal Energy, which has the best health benefits. When you give Zhou Botong a big, healthy son, and put him in this shackle, are you still afraid that he will escape from your grasp?"

Although he was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, gossiping about the private affairs of Ying Gu, who already had white hair, and Zhou Botong, who was nominally her martial uncle, Ying Gu did not show any sign of being offended when she heard his words.

Her heart was filled with sweetness, and she shyly lowered her head.

He immediately knelt down before Ji Boying.

"I wish to become your disciple, and I beg you to generously teach me the profound skills. I will follow your teachings and serve you tea morning and evening. I will never dare to be negligent in the slightest."

This scene left Guo Jing stunned once again.

Before Ji Boying could react, Huang Rong clapped her hands and jumped up happily.

"How interesting! After becoming his disciple, he calls Zhou Botong his senior uncle. How amusing!"

Guo Jing stared blankly, looking troubled, thinking to himself, how could such a messy hierarchy be considered interesting?

Ying Gu was initially excited, but she hadn't expected this situation. If she calmed down, she should indeed reconsider. Even if she was afraid that Ji Boying wouldn't wholeheartedly help her, and gritted her teeth to become his disciple, it wasn't so easy to persuade her.

But unfortunately, this person is somewhat psychologically twisted.

Huang Rong clapped her hands, watching the spectacle like a child, and exclaimed how amusing it was. Ying Gu, though not finding it amusing, wondered if Zhou Botong would.

He thought that regardless of whether it was true or not, it was better to accept it, because maybe he would have a chance to please Zhou Botong.

"There's no need for you to become my disciple. I don't want to take you as my apprentice, and it would tarnish my reputation. I'm not willing to go to the trouble of teaching a disciple."

If Ji Boying didn't really approve of Ying Gu and didn't have much of a relationship with her, and was mostly just using her, then he was probably just taking advantage of her.

However, after hearing what Huang Rong said, he still had an idea.

Having acknowledged Wang Chongyang as his master, he wasn't at a disadvantage in terms of seniority in the martial arts world, but he was still a head below Zhou Botong, which was unpleasant.

It would be easy to become sworn brothers with him like Guo Jing did, but Ji Boying was unwilling to do so.

"I don't want to take on any apprentices, and I'm not in the mood to teach seriously. Just be my Registered Disciple, and I'll help you with this matter."
