Zhou Qingquan looked at the gold bars in the box, and his eyes instantly filled with tears.
He and Ip Man were old friends for many years, and he knew Ip Man's financial situation very well.
Ip Man's family was indeed well-off, but this amount of money probably represented most of Ip Man fortune.
They may even have bought a significant amount of ancestral property, thus incurring substantial losses.
Zhou Qingquan stood up and bowed deeply to Ip Man.
This money is crucial for what he needs to do now.
Although Ip Man did not come out of seclusion as he wished, he did his best to help him.
" Ah Chuen, don't do this!" Ip Man quickly helped Zhou Qingquan up.
Ip Man sighed and patted Zhou Qingquan on the shoulder again.
"Go ahead and get busy!"
After leaving Ip Man's house, Zhou Qingquan got into a car.
He said to a burly man sitting in the back seat, " Jin Shanzhao, contact Eighth Master and tell him I want all of his goods."
"Also, have your brother get ready. We're going to Yanjing in two weeks. I need to see someone."
"Yes, boss!"
Jin Shanzhao seriously.
Next, Zhou Qingquan used the funds given to him by Ip Man to purchase the first batch of weapons.
He bought another mountain and began building his own armed forces.
The live stream feed was jumping around very fast.
Any unimportant plot points will be skipped.
Ling Yi watched with great interest.
It feels like watching a TV series.
Half a month later, Zhou Qingquan, escorted by Jin Shanzhao and his brother, went to Yanjing.
When Ling Yi finally found out who Zhou Qingquan wanted to see...
They were quite surprised.
This person has received mixed reviews from later generations.
Zhou Qingquan actually had the audacity to come looking for him!
It's clear they want to use this person's power to change the future.
Ling Yi turned off the live stream, but his mood was somewhat agitated.
"If history were different, what would the future of the Ip Man World be like?"
Ling Yi was quite looking forward to it.
Ling Yi checked the time; it was already past ten o'clock at night.
There is less than half an hour left before the beast tide erupts as Qin Xiaoxiao predicted.
[Ding! Zhou Qingquan the Ip Man World has significantly altered the storyline, earning 63,000 Plot Points!]
[Ding! Zhou Qingquan from the Ip Man World has successfully Sharing all of the host's skills.]
Upon hearing these two system notifications...
Ling Yi couldn't help but smile slightly.
Zhou Qingquan was the right choice.
It wasn't just because Zhou Qingquan acted so quickly that he created Plot Points for himself.
More importantly, because this person was genuinely dedicated to saving the country.
Now that I have my own skills, I believe that the Ancient Country of Ip Man World will no longer suffer calamities.
That's good.
This is more significant than Plot Points.
[Ding! In the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils World, the Western Xia has been destroyed, and the Spirit Vulture Palace has been incorporated into the Song dynasty by Emperor Zhezong of Song. The plot has changed drastically. You have gained 21,000 Plot Points.]
Wow, double happiness!
[Ding! The Mount Liang in the Water Margin World has been incorporated ahead of schedule, significantly altering the plot. You have gained 32,000 Plot Points!]
[Ding! In the Journey to the West World, millions of the Demon Clan in Western Continent of Cattle have been Hua Wei Son Goku by Sun Wukong, drastically altering the plot. You have gained 45,000 Plot Points.]
[Ding! Water Margin World detected. The plot has been completely altered, and plot potential has been exhausted. No more Plot Points will be gained in the Water Margin World.]
[Ding, please make the following choice, host.]
[1. Unbind from the Water Margin World, reward one chance for mutation.]
[2. Completely bind to the Water Margin World. After binding, the host will have the right to enter and exit this world at any time.]
Without a second thought, Ling Yi chose the first option.
Completely bound?
What's the use?
The Water Margin World is basically of little help to Ling Yi.
It's just an ordinary world.
Even if it's really going to be tied to something, it should be tied to Journey to the West, or at least the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils World.
The Water Margin World is too simplistic.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have been granted one opportunity for mutation.]
Seeing an opportunity for change, Ling Yi hesitated for a moment before clicking on the Blood Curse.
Blood Curse is currently Ling Yi's primary attack method.
Moreover, with the beast tide approaching, Ling Yi hoped to make his offensive methods even more powerful.
[Ding! Congratulations, host! Your Blood Curse skill has mutated into Blood Domain!]
[ Blood Domain: Within the Blood Domain, all hostile creatures can lose up to 20% of their health per second and are unable to use any Health Regeneration potions or skills. As long as the blood of these creatures continues, the Blood Domain will never disappear. It can be customized.]
The amount of health lost isn't important, since they're all Instant Kill anyway.
The key features of Blood Domain skills are the inability to Health Regeneration and their permanent existence.
As expected, skills still rely on mutation!
"Waaah..."
A sudden, sharp, and piercing sound echoed through the sky.
Immediately following, a slightly hurried male voice rang out.
"Attention all Awakened! The Beast Tide is Coming!"
"Attention all Awakened! The beast tide is approaching! Prepare for Combat!"
" Awakened outside, please return to the perimeter within half an hour. After half an hour, the defensive gate will be completely closed."
The broadcast continued for more than a dozen times before it stopped.
Ling Yi walked out of his room and saw Qin Xiaoxiao also coming out of her room.
The two stepped out of their personal tent.
What came into view were the Awakened Rush back and forth on the wall.
It looks chaotic, but there's order within the chaos.
Some rushed straight for the turrets, while others were casting magic into the defensive magic arrays on the walls.
The originally thick, black metal walls, once illuminated by the defensive magic array, began to glow with a golden light in the darkness.
The 800-meter-high wall, stretching as far as the eye could see, was now radiating golden light.
Half the sky was bathed in a golden light.
Meanwhile, the magic towers on the walls were rapidly glowing with red, blue, or purple halos as a large number of professionals frantically poured in their magic.
Different magic towers possess different attack attributes.
The red cesium magic tower can Fire Setting attacks.
Blue Cesium can unleash Ice attacks.
Purple cesium can unleash Thunder attacks.
Ling Yi and Qin Xiaoxiao were dumbfounded.
Is this the war of the walls?
Two words to describe it: magnificent.
At this moment, Xia Qinghan, Shen Mo, and the others also stepped out of their personal tents.
Compared to Ling Yi and Qin Xiaoxiao.
They seemed much calmer now, clearly having witnessed this scene more than once or twice before.
" Ling Yi!" Xia Qinghan looked at Ling Yi.
"I understand." Ling Yi waved his hand, interrupting her.
"Since this beast tide started because of me, I naturally have to take responsibility."
"Now, all you need to do is lie flat."
Ling Yi spoke, golden light shimmered around him, and he slowly floated up.
The next moment, it transformed into a golden streak of light and disappeared.
The skill "Floating Light " granted Ling Yi the speed of light.
"This guy can fly?" Shen Mo exclaimed in surprise.
"Also, this speed is too fast; it almost instantly exceeded my Perception range."
"Can Ling Yi really withstand this beast tide?"
"Based on the information received from the reconnaissance, this beast tide is far larger than any previous one."
What did the director say?
Xia Qinghan shook his head and said, "I just received a message from the director; something happened in Bai Hai City."
"Something happened? What happened? Could it be the Church of Eternal Life again?"
"No, this time the incident involved the Lü Family, or more accurately, the Church of Eternal Life."
Hearing Xia Qinghan's words, Ling Yi already had a guess in his mind.
It must be the spirits of Lü Hanwen and the others who have started causing trouble, and the commotion they've created is bound to be significant.
