Chapter 274 Rich Neighbor
Fu Liunian was completely baffled.
His sudden, forceful kick from the tower wasn't an attempt to cheat.
Fu Liunian was afraid that Yang Silang was young and impetuous, and that his internal organs were already frostbitten but he was still forcing himself to keep going.
It is important to know that the true energy of a grandmaster contains profound meaning and resides within the human body, possessing immense destructive power.
If it cannot be driven away quickly at that time, it may even follow you like a shadow for decades.
To his surprise, after descending the tower, he personally examined Yang Silang's pulse and found that the man was indeed fine.
Fu Liunian is a grandmaster of the tower. Although he does not practice Taizu Changquan, he has a comprehensive knowledge of all the tower's martial arts techniques and is not unfamiliar with Taizu Changquan.
He even knew that the Tide-Surging Myriad Woods Strength had extremely strong resistance to ice-attribute true qi.
If the opponent is a Grandmaster of the same level, the Azure Wood Wildfire Palm can also be used.
But Yang Silang was only a grandmaster, so logically he shouldn't have been able to hold out for so long.
"Perhaps it's a problem with my personal constitution."
Yang Silang thought it might be related to the high rank of his Five Elements True Meaning.
In particular, the true essence of the wood element comes from the divine seed gifted by the wood spirit martial saint in the back garden of the imperial palace, and it is of the highest quality and purest.
Secondly, there is the divine will of the Earth element of the Martial Saint who guards the tower.
They belong to the categories of water and fire, because the divine will of Mu Canghu and Du Mohu is more than a hundred years old, and therefore they are the least important.
Although he didn't want to admit it, the true essence of metal that he himself had gleaned from the Killing Spear among the five elements was probably the weakest.
The tides give rise to all trees, which are particularly resilient because they are guided by water and have wood as their core element.
At this moment, the two guards, Confucius and Mencius, cried out in alarm from below the tower. It turned out that a broken roof tile had fallen down, startling the two men.
Fu Liunian shrugged and smiled.
"Alright, we can repair these windows at the same time."
"Brother Yang, how does it feel to fight with an old man like me?"
Yang Silang thought carefully and said slowly.
"Difficult to fight..."
He didn't use any supernatural powers like divine healing, but Fu Liunian didn't use his full strength either.
The limited space at the top of the tower also restricted their speed.
If Fu Liunian were to unleash his full power on flat ground, he estimated he would suffer a crushing defeat.
It is extremely difficult to challenge a higher-level martial artist.
However, Yang Silang was not discouraged.
He discovered the wonder of the Great Five Elements Fist: the ability to freely switch between the five elements and cope with most different types of true qi.
If he only cultivated water or fire elemental true qi, he probably wouldn't have lasted more than a few moves against Fu Liunian today.
Fu Liunian rang a silver bell, summoned a servant, and ordered him to find craftsmen to repair the roof tiles and windows.
"Brother Yang, the palm technique you just used was gentle and graceful, like flowing water, with a defensive stance that also contained the intention to counterattack. The concept is excellent. Is it one of your supplementary cultivation techniques?"
Yang Silang shook his head and laughed.
"Brother Fu, this is the fundamental skill your great-granddaughter learned, the Washing Stream Hand, a water-based skill."
"If you want to teach her, you might as well think about how to be innovative and change things up in the next few days."
Fu Liunian grunted in response, then sat down in his chair, stroking his beard, and suddenly stopped moving, staring blankly into the void, lost in thought.
Yang Silang could tell at a glance that the other party was probably preoccupied with how to improve the Washing Stream Hand technique.
He truly lives up to his reputation as a martial arts fanatic, capable of becoming completely absorbed in his art at any moment.
Yang Silang simply got up and left, not forgetting to close the door as he went, but since the house was now exposed to wind from all directions, closing it or not didn't really matter.
After descending the Martial Arts Tower and leaving the Martial Arts Hall, he still felt reluctant to go home.
Seeing that it was still early, he strolled over to the Hanshan Martial Arts School to find Tong Baisui.
The world is in a bad state.
The martial arts school became increasingly lively. The Hanshan Martial Arts School even expanded by adding a courtyard to accommodate all the newly initiated disciples.
Yang Silang's face was familiar; the gatekeeper was an old disciple, who hurriedly invited him in.
Tong Renyuan is not here today; he went to Hufa Temple to see the abbot.
In the backyard.
Tong Baisui had a shaved head, his eyebrows and beard were all gone, and he was as shiny as a duck egg, but his complexion was rosy and he was full of energy. Who would have thought that he was once a martial artist who was almost crippled by the practice of draining his life force?
"Brother Yang... What a rare guest! What brings you here?"
"Didn't we just arrive a few days ago?"
Yang Silang smiled but didn't say anything.
A few days ago, he came over and brought Yin-Yang Rebirth Tea for the Tong father and son.
Their friendship is worthy of this cup of tea.
Not only that, but he also made his eldest sister and younger sister drink this tea four months ago in Yidu Prefecture.
If his daughter weren't so young, with her bones and internal organs not yet fully developed, he would have even wanted to give her a cup.
As for the loyal dog Kuroko, he couldn't escape it either; the once-black dog turned into a flesh-colored dog during that period.
The effect is naturally excellent.
My younger sister wrote to me, saying that she already had no shortage of copper-skinned warriors and rhinoceros-haired pills, plus Zhu Tong often gave her extra help.
Since drinking the tea, his cultivation has progressed rapidly over the past few months. He has already developed a sense of Qi and reached the threshold of becoming a copper-skinned martial artist. He will break through soon.
Yang Silang also tried to teach his eldest sister martial arts, but she couldn't even stand properly in a stance, she really didn't have the talent.
Drinking this tea will make your body healthier than the average person; that would be great.
As for the negative effects?
It is said that the little girl cried terribly during those days.
Because her mother, aunt, and even the family dog had all become bald, she thought they were seriously ill and about to die, and she cried bitterly.

Apart from family members.
Among many friends.
Yan Nanxing, along with Sun, Ye, Pei, Zhuang, and Bai, all belong to the government. This tea is produced in the royal secret realm.
He couldn't explain where it came from, so he simply didn't give it to him.
Jin Xiangyu and Su Zhixiu are two women. One is already married and is Yan Nanxing's wife, while the other still has some feelings for him.
He's a person who hates trouble, so he simply won't send it. This tea must be drunk while it's hot, and after drinking it, you'll definitely have to shave your hair to detoxify and make a huge fool of yourself. Does he really think he'd go to the Second Daughter's residence to earnestly send tea?
Therefore, among all the people, he only gave gifts of weight and taels to the Tong family father and son.
Ji Jinliang was grateful to him for helping him make a fortune in the secret realm, and their relationship was very close; not to mention the Tong father and son, he was able to settle down in the provincial capital thanks to the two of them, and their relationship was even more special.
"Hmm..." Yang Silang saw that Tong Baisui's blood and qi were abundant, his face was ruddy, and his internal organs were moving with each breath.
"Brother Tong," Yang Silang said happily, "Congratulations! You're probably going to break through and become a Steel-Dirty Grand Martial Master in the next few days, right?"
Tong Baisui laughed heartily.
"Without Brother Yang's favorable winds, how could I have been ready for a breakthrough so quickly?"
"Please come in quickly..."
The two entered the hall and sat down, chatting about all sorts of things.
Tong Baisui brought news that his martial arts school had recently accepted a disciple who turned out to be a scion of a collateral branch family from the Yan Kingdom.
However, the state of Yan has now changed its name to Wu, and a new dynasty has been established.
Those former aristocratic families, besides those who sought refuge, also included those who had resisted but had no way out, and they all fled.
This disciple came from a clan that had been wiped out. He was not a direct descendant but a collateral branch, and he fled in panic for fear of being implicated.
When they escaped, their group numbered about a hundred, but by the time they reached the Shun Kingdom, only a dozen or so remained.
This Wu Taizu also came from a prominent family.
The chaos in the Yan Kingdom was caused by drought and food shortages, which triggered a peasant uprising, and then various local warlords rose up.
Wu Taizu seized the opportunity and raised an army only after the world was in chaos. He first took over his home province, the capital, then controlled another province. After several years of fighting, he wiped out all the local warlords and finally ascended to the throne.
As for Emperor Yan Mo and his princes, they were all said to have met tragic ends due to the backlash from the dragon vein.
However, Emperor Wu was ruthless and sent skilled assassins to hunt down the remnants of the royal family and to strike at the powerful clans that had resisted him.
Therefore, the remnants of the Yan state triggered a wave of exodus.
Yang Silang was also somewhat moved after hearing this.
It seems that with the world in turmoil, everyone from the royal family to ordinary people will be swept up in this raging torrent, unable to control their own destiny, and life will be difficult for everyone.
The two drank afternoon tea for a while.
Yang Silang then remembered that his new neighbor from the Great Han Kingdom, Gong Tianbao, was hosting a dinner party that evening.
He bid farewell to Tong Baisui, strolled out of the Hanshan Martial Arts School, and walked home.
I entered the house.
Ignoring Daqing lying in the stable and Shi Xuangu squatting on the dog kennel.
Yang Silang entered the backyard.
The main hall doors were wide open.
Hu Jiaoniang, dressed in a light blue jacket, was sitting in a grand chair drinking tea, while Fu Hongying gently massaged her back from behind.
She really does resemble a wicked landlady.
She glanced at Yang Silang and said coldly.
"Husband, look at the time! You still know to come back?"
"Let's get going, don't keep the neighbors waiting..."
"Also, have you prepared a gift for them?"
Yang Silang felt a little dizzy.
What, this fake woman wants to visit the neighbor?
Oh no, I forgot to buy a gift.
He forced a smile and said awkwardly.
"Something came up outside, I'll be back late..."
"Please wait a moment, my lady. I'll have Da Niu go and buy a suitable gift right away."
Hu Jiaoniang helplessly propped her forehead with her hand, looking at him as if she were looking at an incompetent husband.
"I knew you were careless."
"Luckily, I was prepared."
She clapped her hands, and Fu Hongying picked up a brocade box from the table next to her and opened it.
Inside was a red gold Ruyi scepter inlaid with pearls and rubies, which was very exquisite.
