was perfectly fine."Master Shi Yuan!" Ye Ge immediately stood up and walked towards Shi Yuan.Shi Yuan smiled and looked at Ye Ge, saying: "Ye Ge, I really didn't misjudge you... I didn't expect that...The next day, Nandu, the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association Hall.

Around a long table in the conference room sat more than a dozen people in white robes.

These people are the high-level officials of the Jiangnan Wushu Association and also the rule makers of the Jiangnan Wushu world.

They can be said to be the core figures of the entire Jiangnan martial arts world.

Even the major martial arts families in Jiangnan must abide by the rules they set. Otherwise, they will face penalties from the Martial Arts Association.

At the head sat a man with white hair and beard.

He is the president of the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association, Kong Cheng.

Unless a decision of paramount importance needs to be made, it is highly unusual for so many high-ranking officials to convene at the same time.

But today, they do not need to make any decisions.

They were just silently waiting for someone to arrive.

He came.

After a moment, Kong Cheng stood up.

More than a dozen other high-ranking officials, their faces changing slightly, also stood up.

"...Tap, tap, tap..."

Outside the conference room, a sound of footsteps could be heard.

A moment later, an old man in a black robe, accompanied by two young men also in black robes, appeared at the door of the conference room.

"Congratulations to Venerable Gu Ru Long on successfully stepping into the Martial Saint realm!" Kong Cheng spoke first, simultaneously clasping his fists and bowing slightly to pay respects to Gu Ru Long.

The other high-ranking officials also followed suit and bowed.

"President Kong, it's been a long time. How are you doing"

"Thanks to the Venerable Monk's concern, I'm doing well." Kong Cheng said with a smile.

"That's good." Gu Rulong chuckled and walked into the conference room.

Everyone looked at Gu Ruolong with respect and awe in their eyes.

Though Gu Ru Long was nearing sixty, his appearance now resembled that of a man in his early forties. Not only had many of the wrinkles on his face diminished, but there wasn't a single strand of white hair to be seen on his head!

Is this the result of ascending realms

It is rumored that upon entering the realm of Martial Sovereign, one's lifespan can be increased by at least thirty years. As one ascends to higher realms, their lifespan will continue to grow longer.

It is said that thousands of years ago, many cultivators could live for hundreds, even thousands of years.

Kongshen looked at Gu Ruolong, his eyes full of envy.

He has been at the Grandmaster level for almost thirty years, but he still cannot reach the threshold of the Martial Saint realm.

Now that he's nearly ninety, if he can't break through the Martial Venerable realm, his lifespan will be almost up. At most, he can only linger for a few more years.

"Venerable master, please come here and take a seat." Kong Cheng yielded his own seat and said respectfully.

As the president of the Jiangnan Wushu Association, Kong Cheng's status is extremely high.

Even the heads of major martial arts families would show him great respect in their daily interactions.

But faced with an ancient dragon, Kong Cheng had to lower his posture.

Long ago, Gu Ru Long was revered as the Grandmaster by the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association.

Back then, Gu Ru Long was considered the strongest among masters in the Jiangnan Martial Arts world.

Now, Gu Ru Long successfully broke through to the Martial Venerable realm, his status will rise even higher.

For over a hundred years, no one in Jiangnan has stepped into the realm of Wu Zun. As the first person in the past century, Gu Ru Long deserves such respectful treatment!

Today's Gu Ruolong represents the highest combat power in the Jiangnan Martial Arts world. He is the face of the Jiangnan Martial Arts world!

Gu Ru Long smiled slightly, standing at the head of the conference table, his gaze sweeping across the assembled executives.

"I am here today to announce one thing, our Longmen will return to the Jiangnan region!"

The expressions of the senior executives changed, and then they were filled with delight.

This is undoubtedly a great thing for them!

In recent years, the martial arts world of Jiangnan has been weak and vulnerable, being looked down upon by other regions' martial arts circles.

But if the ancient dragon were to return to Jiangnan, their Jiangnan martial arts world could stand tall again!

" Venerable Master, we warmly welcome the return of Longmen! As for the location of Longmen, you just need to speak, no matter where it is, we will not refuse!" Kong Cheng said excitedly.

"Well, not bad. I'll leave the matter of choosing a location to President Kong. All we at Longmen need is a quiet place," Gu Rulong paused and said, "I also have one more thing I want to ask you for."

"As you wish, venerable master," Kong Cheng replied.

"Let it be known throughout the land, in three days' time, I shall stand at Moonlit Lake and slay Fang Yu!" A golden gleam flashed in Gu Ru Long's eyes as he spoke.

"Fang Yu" Sensing the overwhelming killing intent emanating from Gu Ru Long, everyone present changed color.

"Yes, it's the one who abolished Yang Jian's cultivation in Jianghai City and then killed Gu Yan - Fang Yu!" Gu Rulong said coldly.

Hearing what Gu Ruolong said, the high-ranking officials present displayed a variety of expressions.

Among them, some had heard of Fang Yu's name, while others had never heard of him.

But nonetheless, the killing intent that erupted from Gu Ru Long was no joke.

Everybody knows, this Fang Yu, is going to be in big trouble.

As soon as Gu Ruolong stepped into the Martial Venerable realm, they were going to take him down!

"I understand, Venerable One. But what if, after we make a big deal about this, Fang Yu hears the news and runs away" Kong Cheng asked.

"As long as we lock down his position and the positions of those around him, he won't be able to escape. I leave this matter in your hands." Gu Rulong narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at Kong Cheng.

Kong Cheng's face changed slightly, and he immediately replied, "I understand, Venerable."

"Well, everyone, I haven't been back to Jiangnan for many years, and there are still many friends to meet, so I'll leave first." Gu Rulong smiled faintly.

"Farewell to the Venerable Elder!" All the high-ranking officials bowed together to Gu Ruolong.

Gu looked like a dragon, with his hands behind his back and a smile on his face.

He enjoys the feeling of being worshipped.

This is the primal force that has driven him to cultivate and pursue the ultimate martial arts.

He knew deeply that in this world of the strong preying on the weak, as long as one possessed absolute power, they could become someone above everyone else, receiving the adoration and worship of the masses.

In today's Jiangnan, he is the strongest being, he is the only king!

All others shall bow down before him!

……

On this day, two explosive pieces of news caused a stir throughout the Jiangnan martial arts world.

The first message: Gu Ruolong, after nearly two months of closed-door training, has successfully ascended to the Wu Zun realm, becoming the first martial artist in the Jiangnan martial arts world to break through to the Wu Zun realm in nearly one hundred and fifty years!

This is definitely big news, it could even affect the entire power balance of the Jiangnan martial arts world!

As in the past, the strongest martial arts families in Jiangnan are those few families from the Zhong family martial arts clan.

But once the Dragon steps into the realm of Martial Sovereigns, these families will have to step aside!

The value and abilities of a martial arts master are enough to overwhelm these so-called martial arts clans!

Since the ancient dragon stepped into the realm of Martial Venerable, Longmen became the strongest force in Jiangnan, without a doubt!

Many secular families have already begun thinking about how to use benefits to win over Gu Rulong.

The second message came from the Jiangnan Martial Arts Association.

Three days later, Gu Ru Long will be at Yuexin Lake to kill someone named Fang Yu!

It is said that this Fang Yu killed Gu Ru Long's most beloved apprentice, and crippled Yang Jian, the most promising disciple of Longmen.

As a result, he completely enraged Gu Ru Long, becoming the first target of Gu Ru Long after stepping into the realm of Martial Saint!

The entire Jiangnan martial arts world was in an uproar.

"Three days later, on Yuexin Lake, you can witness the power of a martial arts master at the peak realm with your own eyes!"

"If even Grand Masters are this powerful, then what kind of terrifying strength do the Martial Lords above them possess..."

It is said that a martial arts master of the Wu Zun realm can move mountains and seas with a single gesture, and they can also use all kinds of unpredictable spells...

The entire Jiangnan martial arts world is abuzz with excitement and anticipation.

For them, Martial Venerable is a legendary realm.

But three days later, they had the chance to see a martial arts expert make their move.

For most martial artists, this is a great opportunity!

Even the major martial arts families couldn't sit still.

They also want to see, just how powerful the ancient Ru Long is now!

This will affect their future development strategy.

But regardless, Gu Ru Long's stepping into the Martial Venerable realm and his forceful return to Jiangnan is not good news for the major martial arts families in Jiangnan.

The pie of benefits is only so big. Since Gu Ruolong has returned to the Jiangnan region, he will inevitably get involved and take a large slice of the pie!

In short, the martial arts world and business community of Jiangnan were in an uproar that day.

Some people are happy, some are sad, and many others just watch the show.reating.They were less than two miles away from retreating back within the borders of the Biyu clan!It can be said that it has been losing ground steadily!This scene also appeared in the eyes of thous...
