Holy Fist!

"Did you kill him?"

Canaan stared blankly ahead, murmuring to himself.

"So what if I did? If they want revenge, let Divine Eagle Qu Yu come to the Eastern Secret Martial World to find me personally." Bai Xiao turned around and gave a cold smile.

Beside him, Canaan looked at Bai Xiao.

He faintly sensed a domineering aura pulsating within Bai Xiao's chest.

"Another hero has risen in the Secret Martial World of the Tianxia Federation..."

Five minutes later.

A group of three people left the Ancient Loulan Ruins and headed to the nearby Golden Sand City. This journey had finally come to an end, during which a total of four Transformation Realm experts had fallen. The news hadn't spread yet, so others would likely think they were just temporarily missing. But as time passes, this incident will surely cause an uproar in the Western Secret Martial World.

And the mastermind had already boarded a flight this afternoon, leaving the Great Desert Province of the Tianxia Federation, and arrived in the east by evening.

...

September 6th, 6:30 PM.

East Sea City, Baiyun Airport.

In the middle of the spacious, modern hall, a large electronic screen flashed with flight information. At the check-in counter, passengers lined up with documents in hand. The white marble floor was cleaned daily, reflecting a pristine shine. On either side, large glass windows allowed the crimson sunset to mix with the interior's white light.

"Tap, tap, tap..."

At the exit.

Three figures slowly emerged. Leading them was a tall man in a thin black trench coat, his physique impressive and well-proportioned.

He held a suitcase in hand, moving with an unhurried grace.

Despite the black sunglasses obscuring his eyes, a cold aura that kept others at a distance oozed from him. The crowd ahead parted to make way as he passed.

Half a minute later, the three stepped out of the airport.

Soon, a low-profile black sedan pulled up.

The car door opened, and the figure of Si Yu stepped out.

"Hall Master."

He looked at Bai Xiao and greeted him with respect.

At this moment, the aura surrounding Si Yu had clearly reached the level of a sect leader, indicating he had recently broken through. Despite his own rapid improvement, upon seeing Bai Xiao return from the west, he sensed that the gap in their strength had grown even wider!

Or perhaps, previously he was still at the level of a Martial Artist, with shallow experience and limited vision, only seeing the tip of the iceberg. But upon breaking through to a sect leader, he could finally perceive the vast presence of Bai Xiao.

"And these two are?"

Si Yu took a deep breath and shifted his gaze to Canaan and Fang Zheng.

He recognized Canaan, the champion of the Western Secret Martial World's Dark World Fighting Competition, but the other, exuding an even more obscure yet powerful aura, he did not know. He only vaguely felt that this one should be a Transformation Realm expert.

"Zizai Tian Canaan."

"Earth Evil Fist Fang Zheng."

"Both are experts from the Western Secret Martial World."

"I've invited them, and they've agreed to join my Dragon Elephant Martial Arts Hall as temporary Elders, which won't affect your and Ghost Mask's authority."

Bai Xiao slowly explained.

Then, he quickly glanced at Si Yu and continued.

"Your limit should be at the Mid Period of a newly promoted sect leader."

"Unfortunately, you're just shy of reaching the Late Period, destined to miss out on many benefits. Ghost Mask is slightly stronger than you; after he broke through to sect leader, once his adaptation period ended, he should be at the Late Period of a newly promoted sect leader, making him a considerable force. Next, I'm going to push the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts Hall to advance to a Second-class Faction, widely recruit disciples, which will surely attract hostility and isolation from many factions. Your skills aren't sufficient for that yet, so focus on gathering intelligence first..."

Si Yu was taken aback but still nodded and replied, "Yes."

He actually wanted to ask what benefits Bai Xiao was talking about.

Before long, they all got into the car.

The black sedan's engine started and smoothly merged onto the main road.

In the back seat.

Bai Xiao took out a few Secret Manuals he wrote from the suitcase.

Two offensive Secret Martial Skills, and two top-level secret techniques.

All obtained from the Divine Treasure.

Additionally, he had three Secret Martial Skills that hadn't been upgraded from the start.

One First-rank, and two Second Rank.

Then, he glanced at his Potential Points, with about ten left. Bai Xiao slightly shook his head, understanding he needed to acquire more Potential Points. With a shift in thought, Bai Xiao currently had two avenues.

First, Arresting Evil Banner Master profession, to hunt the Twelve Ghost Generals of the Evil Ghost Court.

Second, Martial Arts Consultant profession, to provide new Secret Martial techniques to earn points.

"Wuyuan Company, huh?"

Bai Xiao's eyes flickered, murmuring to himself.

He typically used the Martial Arts Consultant profession in emergencies, due to certain considerations. After all, if others learned the effects of the Secret Martial techniques he practiced, it could lead to targeting. Additionally, Bai Xiao had established the Dragon Elephant Martial Arts Hall, representing a Secret Martial force rather than just himself.

The Dragon Elephant Martial Arts contained many Secret Martial Skills already sold to Wuyuan Company, effectively leaking a part.

So many times, Bai Xiao couldn't freely sell them as he pleased.

Even though he held many new Secret Martial Skills.

"Why not annex Wuyuan Company?"

"It could serve as a subsidiary to extend the influence of my Dragon Elephant Martial Arts Hall."

Bai Xiao's gaze was focused, seemingly making a firm decision in an instant.

To freely sell Secret Martial Skills and exchange them for a large number of Potential Points, his cooperation with Wuyuan Company needed to advance further!!!
