Chapter 41 The Herbalist is Charming (Thirty-Eight)

Knight A: "The martial arts world has been in turmoil these past two years!"

Knight B: "Yes! Last year, I heard that the young master of Hanshui Sect, Meng Yi, was murdered, and the blame was pointed at Yidao Sect. Alliance leader Meng Chang personally went to Yidao Sect."

Knight A: "I know that. I heard that the Yidao Sect killed Master Meng, who had discovered the secret, in order to cover up the scandal. Alliance leader Meng Chang personally came forward and determined that his son was not killed by the Yidao Sect. But on the night he left, the Yidao Sect was wiped out."

Knight B: "That's right. The Dao Sect is a well-known sect in the martial arts world. To be wiped out so easily is not something that ordinary people can do."

Knight A: "Meng Chang and several martial arts veterans investigated, but ultimately nothing came of the case. Rumor has it that Meng Chang acted to avenge his son."

Qingli: "Husband?"

Meng Yi: "Shh!"

Meng Yi shook his head and picked up a piece of food and gave it to Qingli.

Knight B: "I met Sect Master Meng Chang many years ago, and he doesn't seem like someone who would do such a thing. Furthermore, at the end of last year, the Kongtong Sect's most valuable treasure, the Kongtong Sword Technique, was stolen. Earlier this year, two Emei Sect elders disappeared, and the Longmen Bank headquarters was looted. These are all major incidents. Could the Alliance Master have done all of this?"

Knight A: "I didn't say that everything was done by the leader, it's just a rumor. Alas, this world is not peaceful!"

Knight B: "That's true. Actually, these things have nothing to do with small people like us."

Knight A: "Yes, we'll just wait and see."

The two finished their meal, paid the bill and left.

Qingli asked in a low voice.

Qingli: "Husband, is the Meng Chang they are talking about the eunuch?"

Meng Yi: "It's my father."

Meng Yi frowned, looking a little serious.

Qingli: "It seems that the father-in-law is in a bad situation. The person behind this is also scheming!"

Meng Yi: "Well, the Shaolin Temple, Emei Sect, and Kongtong Sect they just mentioned are all major martial arts sects. They were established even longer than our Hanshui Sect and have a great influence in the martial arts world."

Meng Yi: "As for Longmen Bank, it is the largest bank in the Central Plains martial arts world."

Qingli: "The person behind this is really scheming!"

Meng Yi: "Well, let's eat first, and then we'll talk."

In the inn room, the two men discussed in low voices.

Meng Yi: "There will be a martial arts conference this year, and a new leader will be chosen."

Qingli: "Leader of the Wulin? Can't the eunuch be re-elected?"

Meng Yi: "The leader of the martial arts world is elected every ten years. My father has already served two terms and he has long wanted to step down. This time, a new leader will be elected. I think the person behind this will definitely intervene in this matter."

Qingli: "Then should we go to Hanshuimen to find the father-in-law?"

Meng Yi: "No, we should disguise ourselves and operate in the dark. Showing up in the open now might alert the enemy."

Meng Yi: "I didn't expect so many things to happen in the martial arts world. The abbot of Shaolin Temple was murdered. He was a martial arts expert and had taught me before. It's not something that ordinary people can hurt. To be able to poison him in Shaolin Temple is no small feat. Moreover, the culprit could not be found, and the suspicion was indirectly placed on my father!"

Qingli: "Oh! By the way, wasn't it that Renault who caused us to fall off the cliff? Why do they all say it was the Yidao Sect?"

Meng Yi: "They are framing me. I did know some of the scandals of Yidaomen, but they were all coincidental. They never knew about it and never sent anyone to kill me. Their deaths were in vain."

Meng Yi: "This Thunder Tiger Hall is definitely directly related to the person behind it. But when I think about it carefully, I really don't know who is both determined to dominate the martial arts world and has the ability to do so."

Qingli: "Whoever is most likely to become the new leader of the martial arts world will do it. Whoever has vested interests is the most suspicious."

Meng Yi: "Well, you have a point."

Meng Yi: "The Sword Saint who gave me the Seven Swords must have known something. Unfortunately, he was injured so badly that he passed away before he could tell me who hurt him."

Qingli: "From what you said, Senior Sword Saint is a very skilled martial artist. No one can hurt him. The thief would have to use tricks or poison to catch him off guard."

Meng Yi: "Yes, Senior Sword Saint was indeed poisoned at that time and his life was coming to an end."

Qingli: "Besides, the thieves want to collect martial arts secrets and control a large amount of money. Their goal is not small, so there will definitely be some movement."

Qingli: "Tomorrow, my husband will go and find out if there are any sects that have suddenly risen in power and whose disciples are highly skilled in martial arts; or if there are any sects that are generous and have purchased a lot of weapons and property. There may be clues."

Meng Yi: "You're right. We just came out and don't know much about this. We need to find out more before taking any action."

That night, Meng Yi closed his eyes very late.
